INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Many manufacturers request that you only use patch kits, or you send the mattress back to them for repair. Though effective, DIY patches can lead you to lose your warranty on the mattress, so proceed with caution. Duct tape can be a temporary fix. Though effective in the short term, the glue on duct tape is not made to permanently bind to plastic, and it will eventually dry out and fall off. Never use hot glue to fix a leak. Hot glue will, in almost all cases, melt part of your air mattress and make the hole bigger. This fuzz, though comfortable, will prevent your glue or patches from completely binding around the leak, causing it to fall off shortly after applying. Take a wire brush or some sandpaper and lightly scrub away the felt coating until there is only plastic around your leak. If you're out of professional patches or cannot buy one, you can still improvise a patch from things around the house. Tarps and shower curtains work well and are easily cut to size. Make sure your square is big enough to cover the leak, with at least one extra centimeter on every side. Cover the leak in a generous amount of glue at least the size of your patch. Do not try this with your child's bottle of craft glue. You need a strong, reliable adhesive, such as superglue, KrazyGlue, or Gorilla Glue, to adhere your patch. Use strong, even pressure to press the patch into the glue. Smooth out the patch with your fingers and gently wipe away any excess glue around the edges of the patch. Use several heavy books, a weight, or similarly heavy objects and place them on top of the patch to keep the pressure up as it dries. When you return the patch should be firmly adhered to the mattress.

SUMMARY: Know that DIY fixes may void your warranty. Sand away the soft felt around your leak if it is on the top of the mattress. Cut out a square of thin, malleable plastic, like a shower curtain. Attach the DIY patch with strong glue. Press your patch into the glue and hold it there. Place a heavy object on top of the patch and return in 6-8 hours.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If your prawns were frozen, you'll need to defrost them. Empty the prawns into a large bowl, preferably glass. Pour in some cold water and stir it around. Then drain the prawns and repeat this step several times. The entire process should take about fifteen minutes to fully defrost your prawns. Using the microwave to defrost prawns can make them soggy or overcooked. Put the prawns in a colander and rinse them in the sink with cold water. Use your hands to rinse each prawn individually. As you are rinsing, keep an eye out for any spoiled prawns that are discolored or slimy. Prawns should appear white or gray before cooking. Never use water that is warmer than room temperature, as this could lead to soggy or rubbery prawns. Prawns should ideally be cooked immediately after cleaning. However, if you must store them for later, be sure to keep them in the refrigerator for no more than 24 hours. After this length of time, they may start to go bad. For the freshest, best tasting prawns, consider cleaning and cooking them as soon as you get home from the store. Prawns need to be stored in a cool place like the refrigerator. They should be stored at a temperature between 32F (0C) and 38F (3C). Keep them together on a tray covered with plastic wrap or in a plastic container while they are in the fridge. You can also freeze prawns for up to three months in your freezer at 18C (0F), but this may lead to less fresh tasting prawns. Prawns should never be left out at room temperature for more than a few minutes.
Summary: Defrost the prawns. Rinse the prawns in cold water. Cook the prawns soon after cleaning. Store the cleaned prawns in the refrigerator.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You want to ensure your hands are completely clean before you sit down for your meal. In Indian culture, the left hand is commonly viewed as dirty and unsanitary, and therefore rude to eat with. Avoid serving, eating, or touching any of the food with your left hand. Avoid letting the food touch your palms. Hold the food near the tips of your fingers when you're bringing it to your mouth. It's custom to sample each dish individually. This goes for any main dishes and side dishes but does not include the bread, rice, or daal. For example, you wouldn't mix a vegetable dish with a meat dish in the same bite, or eat one of the side dishes with one of the main dishes in the same bite.

SUMMARY:
Wash your hands before you eat. Eat with your right hand only. Use only your fingers to pick up food. Take bites of one dish at a time.
