Article: Open up some rooms so that you have more of an open plan space. Create a spacious feel to your home by knocking down a few walls. Discuss your options with an accredited contractor before making any drastic decisions. Make sure that you take into account which walls secure the foundation before making plans, and work around it. You can add an attractive pillar if it's secure enough and fits the character of your home. If you have an unfinished basement, consider finishing it and creating an extra room. This will always add value to a home, so the investment will be worth it. You can even keep it simple by just finishing the walls and carpeting the floor. Adding livable floor space to your home will almost always add value to the home. If you have an attic with usable space, you should maximize its potential and utilize the space whenever possible. Work around any existing ducts and machinery to maximize the area you can use for this project.

Or you may just want to add insulation and partial flooring to your existing attic space so that it adds a separate storage option in your home.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?

Problem: Article: Companion animals can provide comfort and joy to a person with AIDS. But animals can also carry parasites that cause infections. Cleaning up after animals for the person can minimize the risk that he or she is infected with a parasite. Clean up any animal feces for the person, including the kitty litter box. Empty, don't sift, the cat litter every day. Cat feces can cause toxoplasmosis, while reptiles can carry salmonella and birds may have the fungus cryptococcus or histoplasmosis. Make sure that you and the person with AIDS wash your hands thoroughly after handling pets or cleaning up after animals. Just as coming in contact with animals and their feces can be harmful for a person with AIDS, so can being in the garden. A garden or potting soil often has germs. You and the person should wear work gloves when handling dirt. Washing your hands before and after handling dirteven with gloves-- is also advisable. Germs can be dangerous for a person with AIDS. Having regular cleaning sessions can help maintain the person's health and keep infections at bay. Clean and dust the entire home at least once every week and more often if necessary. Sanitize toilets, tubs, showers, and sinks more frequently and as needed. Use either commercial cleaners or a bleach mixture of cup bleach to 1 gallon of water (or 1 tablespoon to 1 quart water for smaller jobs). Rinse surfaces with fresh water after disinfecting them. You can use many of the same items a person with AIDS does including utensils and bedding. The key is to wash them regularly or as needed. This can prevent the spread of diseases to the person with AIDS and also minimize your risk of coming into contact with HIV. Recognize that a person with AIDS doesn't need separate utensils such as dishes, knives, forks, or spoons. His or her dishes also don't need special cleaning. Washing this dishes in hot water with soap or dishwasher detergent is plenty to keep everyone safe and healthy. Wash bedding or clothing in hot water at least once a week. If anything is soiled with blood, vomit, semen, vaginal fluids, urine or feces, remove them with disposable gloves. Wash immediately or as soon as you can. If you have to wait to wash the items, put them in plastic bags. A person with AIDS should have his or her own razors, toothbrushes, tweezers, nail or cuticle clippers, and pierced jewelry. Anything that may have the person's blood on it shouldn't be shared because it can transmit HIV. You can also transmit infections to someone with AIDS by sharing these types of personal items.
Summary: Be careful with animals. Put on gloves when you're in the garden. Clean the home at least weekly. Wash shared items regularly. Avoid sharing personal items.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Like secular forms of meditation, mediating on the Word of God requires you to set yourself apart from the noise and distractions of the world long enough to focus on the task at hand. Multitasking may seem like a valuable skill in today's world, but you won't be able to give any task 100% while trying to balance it with something else. Minimizing your distractions while meditating on God's Word should improve your ability to focus on it. Try to set aside at least 15 to 30 minutes for your meditation. Let any family or roommates know that you need time to yourself to focus, and set yourself apart in a quiet, empty room. Make yourself comfortable, but not so comfortable that you find it hard to stay awake. External silence isn't the only quiet required for this form of meditation. You also need to pursue internal quiet by setting aside your doubts, fears, and other distracting thoughts. Don't feel too guilty if your mind initially wanders back to the day's problems, but don't let your thoughts dwell there, either. As soon as you notice yourself getting sidelined by anxieties or other concerns, take a moment to pause and consciously redirect your attention back to God. Praying for rededicated focus at that moment may also help. Open the Bible and read the verse or verses you plan to meditate over. Spend as much time as you need to gain a basic understanding of the words, then bookmark the verse for later; you'll need to refer to it continually throughout your meditation. After you read through the passage, try reading through it again. This time, speak the words out loud and intentionally emphasize different portions by your tone, and open yourself to new revelations as you do so. Repeat this exercise as often as needed or desired during your meditation. If necessary, you may also wish to improve your understanding using other tools. Research the cultural context. Read through verses that are similar in tone or topic. Look up unfamiliar words in a dictionary or thesaurus. Spend a few minutes praying to God for guidance on your meditative efforts. Ask God to open your heart to the truth and wisdom lying within His Word. While the Bible may seem like little more than words on a page, try to keep in mind that the text you read comes direct from God. Asking the Holy Spirit to enrich your understanding while you meditate is, essentially, like asking an author to help improve your understanding of his story.

SUMMARY: Find a quiet place. Quiet your heart. Read the Bible. Pray over the readings.

You don't have to spend a fortune to dress like the stars. Accessories make the outfit complete but don't get carried away with too much bling. Keep it simple. Bling was once considered all things flashy, expensive and big but with changing styles comes a simpler way to accessorize with the minimalistic rings, belt buckles and watches. In women's Hip-Hop fashion an entire ensemble can be accessorized with simple hoop earrings and a petite chain. Gone are the days of massive necklaces with a huge clock face pendant. Many styles in hip hop are making a comeback and if you are someone that has a hard time throwing anything away then you may already have the clothing you need. Jersey's, Jordans, or even that pair of skinny jeans you held onto are all making their way back to the hip hop fashion scene. No matter the style you are attempting to achieve you should always feel confident in what you wear. Just like the perfect accessory, a fresh look goes a lot further with an attitude to match. Choose an outfit that fits well and let your personality do the rest.
