Article: Take some of the wax you just melted, and place a drop into the bottom of your container. Alternatively, you can use a drop of hot glue or super glue instead. Be prepared to work quickly, as the hot wax or hot glue will set up fast. If you don't have spare candles or a hot glue gun on hand, place a piece of double-sided tape against the bottom of your tabbed wick. You can buy tabbed candle wicks in the candle aisle of a craft store and online. They look like long candle wicks with small, metal disks on the bottom. Tuck the wick into the container, then use your finger or a stick to press the tab against the hot wax or hot glue. Don't worry if the wick is too long for the container. You will cut it at the very end. If you cut it now, it won't stick up straight in the wax. Hot glue will need about 2 to 3 minutes to harden. If you used super glue or double-sided tape, then you don't need to wait at all. If you don't wait for the wax or hot glue to set, the wick may move as you are pouring the wax.

Article: In many instances, the best way to clean sticky hardwood floors is with a cleaning solution that is formulated specifically for wood floors. Choose a cleaner with a label that clearly states the product is formulated for the type of hardwood floor you are cleaning. Mild dish soap will help remove sticky residues from hardwood floors. Opt for a pH neutral soap that is vegetable based. Mix 14 cup (59ml) of dish soap in a bucket of warm water to create an effective cleaning solution. Vinegar may prematurely dull or damage hardwood floors. It can, however, be an effective way to clean sticky floors. Try mixing 12 cup (120ml) of white vinegar with 1 gallon (3.8L) of warm water. Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to scrub the sticky area.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Purchase a cleaner formulated for hardwood floors. Try using dish soap. Use vinegar cautiously.
Article: Salt can have a negative effect on any weight loss routine, which can sabotage your ability to lose troublesome belly fat. Especially short term, this is a quick way to limit bloat and get a flatter stomach. Bloating in the stomach often results from carrying excess water. Water retention in the body is related to a heavy intake of sodium. Decrease your sodium intake. Read food labels to see how much sodium is in the products you consume. Be careful, however, as labels can be deceitful. Sometimes, a bag of chips doesn't look too unhealthy until you realize the nutritional information is "per serving" and the bag comes with 2.5 servings. Be realistic about how much of a product you expect to eat and calculate how much sodium you'll consume. Avoid processed foods and do not add too much salt to table foods. Watch out for canned vegetables and soy sauces, which can be salt-heavy. Protein is the single most important nutrient of weight loss. Eating the right breakfast has been shown to reduce cravings. Research shows that your body uses more calories to metabolize proteins than fat and carbs. Also, studies show that increasing protein intake by 25% has reduced late night snacking by half and obsessive thoughts about food by 60%. Whole wheat is just the beginning. For a flat, trimmed stomach, the bulk of your calories should come from healthy foods. Ditch sugary and processed foods. Potato chips, TV dinners, and fast foods should be purged from your diet. Beans and other legumes are high-quality carbohydrates packed with protein. Beans tend to help you feel fuller faster and help you burn fat after a workout. Try swapping out meats like chicken and beef for black, pinto, or kidney beans for a few meals each week. Berries, such as blueberries and strawberries, are low-calorie and a good source of essential vitamins that can keep your body healthy. Keep a bowl of berries in your fridge if you need a snack and go for that over pretzels or sweets. Nuts are filled with heart-healthy fat and are filling enough to reduce hunger cravings. Be careful, however. While healthy, nuts are high-calorie and it's easy to accidentally go overboard and end up gaining weight by overeating.
