In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Selena usually wears her hair dark brown or black, though she occasionally gets warm caramel highlights. If you don't have dark hair, then applying a hair color could help you get a look that's closer to Selena's. However, you don't have to look exactly like Selena, so only dye your hair if you truly like the look. Selena says that she usually washes her hair once every 3 days because she believes it looks better 1 or 2 days after washing. Washing less frequently is also healthier for your hair because shampooing too often can dry out your hair and strip its natural oils. Additionally, it reduces the amount of heat-styling that you use. If you do feel the need to clean your hair more often, you can use dry shampoo between washes. Limit how much you touch your hair because the oil from your fingers can make your hair get oily faster. You can choose to condition without shampooing in between washes. People with very oily hair may choose to wash their hair more often. . Selena has sleek, shiny hair that looks great with or without styling. Set your hair up to shine by applying a nourishing oil like argan oil. If you have a rough texture, you should also apply a leave-in conditioner. You could also gently mist your hair with a product that contains silicone. Flat ironing your hair helps create shine, though you should use a heat protectant. Using 2 color tones in your hair also helps create shine. Your natural hair color most likely has more than 1 tone already, and a skilled hair stylist will automatically add in more than 1 tone. If you color your hair at home, look for a product that offers more tones. Selena has worn her hair in a variety of styles including long, shoulder-length, layered, straight, and wavy with front bangs, side bangs, and no bangs at all. She often wears her hair with lots of volume, though she occasionally wears a sleek, straight style. Choose a Selena style that best flatters your face shape. To achieve a wavy look, apply a heat protectant then wrap small sections of your hair around a curling wand. Hold the style with a light coat of hairspray. Add small braids to your style to get a look like Selena's. You could wear a side braid or create a braid crown. Another option is to braid the front pieces of your hair and then tie them together in the back. To achieve the straight-haired look, spray your hair with a heat protectant that will help prevent hair damage. Then use a flat iron to straighten your hair. Part your hair down the middle for a classic Selena look. If you're wearing curls, create a side part.
Summary: Consider going brunette. Wash your hair just 2 to 3 times per week. Make your hair shine Choose your style.

The company will record the net book value for fixed assets in its accounting records. However, you'll need to value what these assets are worth on the open market. Try to estimate their value by checking how much comparable assets have recent sold for. Fixed assets include the following: buildings land furniture computer equipment and software vehicles machinery or other equipment Accounts receivable are the amount the target company can collect from another business because it sold them goods or services on credit. You'll want to see how much your target can collect. Also analyze how successful it has been collecting on accounts payable. Request an "aging" report. Many clients don't pay their bills when due. You should check to see if there are any accounts receivable that are long overdue. If so, try to find out why. Even smaller companies might have IP that is worth a considerable sum. Intellectual property includes things like patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and any income from licensing IP. Also check whether the target licenses intellectual property from a third party. For example, the target might pay for the right to use another company's patent. If so, you'll want to see copies of the licensing agreements.

One-sentence summary -- Value the target company's fixed assets. Study the company's accounts receivable. Don't forget about intellectual property (IP).

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: First of all, you must stop whatever are you doing in that moment and sit down; after a few minutes of rest, the cramps should decrease in intensity or even disappear. If the pain lasts longer or they are really intense, call your doctor and tell him or her about your symptoms because it might be a more serious problem. Sometimes it helps to lean a little bit to the side that hurts; this way, you can relax the muscles in that area and reduce the pain you feel. To relieve a cramp in your leg, lie on your back momentarily and then extend the affected leg while keeping the knee straight. Try to position yourself so that the foot is bent backwards until the pain is gone. Another means of stretching the legs is by riding a stationary bike for 30 minutes daily. Brisk walking is also a way of improving circulation in the lower extremities. You might be tempted to use some medication for treating the pain; it is very important to know that many of the drugs used today, unfortunately, may have severe adverse or teratogenic effects (they can lead to congenital malformations or other abnormalities). Because of this, it is important to check with your doctor before using any over-the-counter medications. Consider taking acetaminophen (the brand name is Tylenol) because it is considered a safe drug to take during pregnancy. The recommended dosage is 325 to 650 mg every 4 to 6 hours (unless stated otherwise by your physician). Another frequently used drug for pain relief is ibuprofen (Nurofen and other trademarks); this must be avoided during pregnancy, especially during the last trimester because it promotes premature closure of a fetal structure called ductus arteriosus (DA). You might try to reduce the pain by applying a warm compress to the area where you are experiencing cramps. However, be careful not to keep it against your skin for too long as it may cause nerve damage to your skin. Once you begin to feel relief, remove the warm compress. You can apply the warm compress to the area again if the cramps come back. You can also consider taking a warm bath rather than using a warm compress. The heat will have a soothing effect on your muscles, which can help to calm cramps that you have.

SUMMARY:
Sit down and rest for a moment. Stretch the affected area. Take pain medications that are safe for use during pregnancy. Apply a warm compress to the area with the cramps.
