Your guitar is made of natural materials that are prone to damage if stored at extremes of humidity or temperature. Excessive swelling and contracting of the guitar can cause you to need to retune and manipulate your strings more frequently, shortening their life. A hard guitar case will provide more string protection than a soft one. Look for a well-fitting case with a cushioned interior. Storing your guitar face up will apply less pressure on the strings and keep them from being abraded by the ground. This will help them last longer. Never lean your guitar upright against furniture or the wall. It can fall, damaging your guitar body or strings. Metal guitar strings can corrode with exposure to water. Strings, like the guitar itself, are best preserved by avoiding extremes in humidity and temperature, which can cause warping. Storing your guitar at around 75 degrees F or 24 degrees C and a humidity of 50% is ideal. A hygrometer and a thermometer can help ensure an optimal environment for your strings so they can last their longest.

One-sentence summary -- Store your guitar in a protective case. Keep your guitar face up when you aren't playing. Avoid exposing your strings to excessive moisture.

Q: Use either rollers or a brush to paint the ceiling. Apply the paint in a W, X, or N shape in order to make sure that paint is applied in all directions. You will want to be sure to remove excess paint from the brush or roller before applying, since otherwise it will just drip into your face! Ew! If the paint won't go on your roller (because it is too thick), you can try putting it on a trowel or similar tool first, spreading it in the general area you wish it to go, and then switching to a roller to even the texture. Divide the ceiling into sections and complete the sections one at a time. These do not need to be formally divided. Painting the ceiling in sections will make it easier to make sure you get everything, keep you organized so you get done faster, and help keep you motivated. When you have painted the whole ceiling, make sure to let it dry completely before doing anything else (if any changes or additions need to be made). This usually takes a minimum of several hours. Adding more paint, texture, or touching the drying paint too much will pull the drying paint off and make your ceiling look uneven. The ceiling will dry faster if you increase the air circulation in the room.
A: Paint the ceiling. Visualize and paint the ceiling in sections. Let it dry thoroughly.

Article: Fibroids are rubbery growths that form on the walls of the uterus. They occur most frequently in women of reproductive age, especially after age 35. In most cases these benign growths remain small, and they almost never lead to cancer. However, for some women, fibroids can significantly affect their quality of life. Fibroids are usually categorized into three groups. Submucosal fibroids grow in the uterine cavity. Intramural fibroids grow in the wall of the uterus. Subserosal fibroids grow on the outside of the uterus. Many women may have fibroids and not even be aware of their condition. For many women, fibroids do not cause any symptoms, discomfort, or health issues. However, fibroids can cause some painful or even debilitating symptoms in some women. If you experience any of the following symptoms, see your doctor: Heavy and/or prolonged menstrual bleeding. Fibroids cause the uterine wall to become thicker than normal during the menstruation cycle, causing much heavier bleeding than usual. In some cases, bleeding is severe enough to cause anemia. Significant change in menstruation patterns (e.g., sharply increased pain, much heavier bleeding). Pelvic pain, or feelings of "heaviness" or "fullness" in the pelvic area. Fibroids can range in size from very small (smaller than a seed) to very large (grapefruit-sized). Large fibroids may even cause your abdomen to look distended as with pregnancy. Pain during sexual intercourse. Frequent and/or difficult urination. Constipation. Fibroids may expand and cause the uterus to press against your bladder or bowels, causing constipation. Backache Infertility. This is very rare, but in some cases fibroids can reduce implantation rates, leading to infertility. While scientists are not definitely sure what causes fibroids, a few factors seem to be at play. Knowing more about these may help you determine what course of treatment is right for you. It is possible that abnormalities in a woman's uterine blood vessels may cause fibroids to occur. Genes that cause uterine muscle cells to grow at an accelerated rate may be a cause. Fibroids seem to be related to a woman's reproductive cycle, rarely occurring before the first menstrual period and often accelerating during pregnancy. Some scientists suggest that the hormones estrogen and progesterone may be involved.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Understand what fibroids are. Recognize the symptoms of fibroids. Learn what causes fibroids.

Article: Although Fordyce spots appear in the same areas of the body as herpes lesions (around the lips and genitalia), they are very different conditions. Unlike Fordyce spots, herpes lesions look like red blisters or ulcers and they are initially very itchy before becoming painful usually described as burning pain. Also, herpes lesions are usually larger than Fordyce spots. Herpes are caused by the herpes simplex virus (either type 1 or 2) and are very contagious. In contrast, Fordyce spots are not contagious. After an outbreak, herpes lesions fade away and usually only reappear in times of stress. Fordyce spots sometimes fade away, but usually they are permanent or even get a little worse with age. Fordyce spots can look a lot like genital warts, particularly during their early stages when the warts are quite small. Both conditions also appear around the genitalia. However, genital warts can grow to be much larger than Fordyce spots and are caused by HPV or human papillomavirus. HPV is also contagious and transmitted primarily by skin-to-skin contact through a cut, abrasion or small tear in your skin. As genital warts grow, they often develop into cauliflower-like bumps or tiny stem-like protrusions. In contrast, Fordyce spots often look like "chicken skin" or sometimes "goose bumps" especially when the skin is stretched. Genital warts often spread to the anus regions, whereas Fordyce spots rarely do. Genital warts increase your risk of cancer of the cervix. In contrast, Fordyce spots are not associated with any other condition. Folliculitis is an inflammation of the hair follicles that's commonly seen around the opening of the vagina and base of the penis. Folliculitis involves the formation of little pustules around the pubic hair follicles. They are frequently itchy, sometimes painful and red and release some pus if squeezed similar to a pustule pimple. In contrast, Fordyce spots are rarely itchy, never painful and can sometimes release a thick, oily discharge if squeezed similar to a black head pimple. Folliculitis is often caused by shaving the pubic region and irritating hair follicles. Bacteria are sometimes involved, although it's not considered a contagious condition. Folliculitis is often successfully treated with topical creams or oral antibiotics, and better hygiene measures, including quitting shaving with a razor. It's not recommended to squeeze Fordyce spots because you may inflame them and make them larger.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Don't confuse Fordyce spots with herpes. Differentiate Fordyce spots from genital warts. Don't mistake Fordyce spots for folliculitis.
