Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Spend at least 15 minutes exploring your palace every day. Recall information by walking through your palace or looking around it. Clean up your memory palace when you need to update data. Build new palaces for different topics and information.

Answer: The more you walk through and spend time in your palace, the more easily you will recall its contents on demand. You want the visualization to feel effortless and natural. Try to walk through the entire route a couple of times or block out a chunk of time each day to visualize the palace from start to finish. For example, see James Joyce sitting on your toilet as if he belongs there and really is an integral part of your bathroom decor instead of an imagined image. This helps you remember that James Joyce was the author known for his toilet humor. The best part is you can practice this anywhere, anytime. All you have to do is close your eyes. Once you have memorized the contents of your palace remember them simply by following the route or visualizing a room. With practice you will be able to start anywhere in your palace or along your route to recall a specific piece of information. If you need to remember that your girlfriend's birthday is March 16, simply go into your bedroom and see the soldiers "marching" on the bed to the tune of the 80s cult classic "Sixteen Candles." A memory palace can be reused over and over again. Simply replace the existing contents with new information. After a few practice runs, you'll soon forget the old data and only remember the new data in its place. If your palace is becoming too large or contains information you no longer need, remove that data from the route. If you have something new you'd like to commit to memory, but you don't want to erase your current memory palace, simply build a new one. File the old palace away and start the process all over again, choosing a different place to use as your palace. Memory palaces will last as long as you want them to once they're stored in your brain. For example, you might have your house store the names of all the U.S. presidents. Then, your walk to work contains the phone numbers of your friends and family. And your office itself has the contents of the speech you're giving tomorrow.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a spot herbal treatment. Make an herbal mask. Use a sea salt mask. Make an exfoliant.

Answer: A number of herbs can act as astringents, which help to dry out tissues and act as anti-inflammatory agents. You can apply an astringent directly onto pimples on your nose using a Q-tip or a cotton ball. Use these astringents sparingly because they dry out the skin. The following herbal astringents can be used to dry individual pimples: Black or Green tea Lemon juice Chamomile tea Yarrow tea Sage tea Apple cider vinegar Facial masks can help clean, tighten, and heal the skin and minimize pimples. Astringent herbs tighten or tone the skin while the antibacterial herbs help kill off bacteria. You can treat just your nose or your entire face. Start by making a mask with one tablespoon of honey, which is antibacterial and astringent, along with one egg white, which is also an astringent. Add one teaspoon of lemon juice, which is another astringent. Add teaspoon of any of the following essential oils with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties: peppermint, spearmint, lavender, calendula, or thyme. Spread the mixture over your nose. If you want, use a q-tip to spread the mixture over specific problem areas. Allow the mixture to dry for 15 minutes, then rinse off completely with lukewarm water. Pat dry and apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer. You can also dry out pimples on the nose by using sea salt. Take one teaspoon of sea salt and stir it into three teaspoons of hot water. Stir to dissolve the sea salt. If you don't want to use a full mask, take a q-tip and dip the tip into your mixture and apply where needed. Just make sure you avoid getting the mixture near your eyes. Leave the mixture on for 10 minutes. Don't leave it on any longer. Sea salt draws water out and can dry your skin too much. Rinse off completely with cool or lukewarm water. Pat dry. Vigorous exfoliation using a harsh exfoliant product often does more harm than good. Exfoliation can cause micro-scarring and more obvious scarring, and it can often make acne worse. The scrubs you buy which perform the exfoliation may pull off skin that is not yet ready to fall off. Instead, you can make your own gentle exfoliants to spot treat the acne on your nose. Use these treatments two to three times a week. To make a honey-baking soda exfoliant, mix cup of honey with enough baking soda to make a paste. Using gentle, circular motions, apply this mixture to the affected area. You can also use a q-tip. Gently work the mixture into your nose for two to three minutes and rinse with warm water. Grind to cup of rolled whole oats in a food processor. Add enough olive, jojoba, vitamin E, avocado, or almond oil to make a paste. Using gentle, circular motions, apply this mixture to the affected areas or use a q-tip. Gently work the mixture into the area for two to three minutes and rinse with warm water. For a sugar-olive oil exfoliant, mix a teaspoon of sugar with cup of olive oil. Using gentle, circular motions, apply this mixture to the affected areas or use a q-tip. Gently work the mixture into the area for two to three minutes and rinse with warm water.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Take your blinds down Remove the fabric insert from fabric blinds. Wash your blinds thoroughly. Let the blinds dry.

Answer:
. When you paint your blinds, they need to be on a flat surface so you don't drip paint everywhere, which means you need to take them down. Alternatively, you may want to hang them up outside to paint to reduce the mess. Either way, you need to take them down from their indoor location. Usually, individual slats will unhook from the top. Some vertical blinds have a fabric insert, while others are just fabric on one side and vinyl on the other. If yours have the insert, pull it out before you start painting. You may need to slip a credit card between the slat and the fabric to get it going. If your blinds have been hanging up for any length of time, they likely have dirt and grime on them. Wash them with soapy, warm water. Dish soap works well for this purpose. It can be easier to take them outside to scrub. Some blinds are machine washable. Check the tag to make sure yours are. Coil them together in a pillowcase, and put them in the washing machine with a few towels. Use the gentle cycle, warm water, and detergent. Before painting, your blinds will need plenty of time to dry. If they're fabric, you may want to let them dry overnight. Lay them out flat, and turn them over after a few hours so both sides can dry. For vinyl blinds, you can wipe them down to speed up the process. The blinds should be completely dry before you start painting.
