Problem: Article: Consider this if you have books ranging from trade paperbacks to oversize art albums. Place the tallest books on the lowest shelf, placing smaller and smaller books as you move upward. This creates a tidy, organized appearance. On some bookcases, this is a necessity to adapt to the height of each shelf. This system looks great, but are best used if you have only one bookcase. In larger collections, they can make a book difficult to find. In addition, you need to consider that you may have to split books from a series, when they do not have the same colour. Here are a few sorting systems based on spine color: One color per shelf (a blue shelf, a green shelf, and so on). If you're having trouble filling a shelf, wrap some of the books in kraft paper. A gradual "rainbow" flowing from one color to the next, or from the most saturated colors to pastels. A pattern that creates a flag or other simple image when the whole bookcase is filled. This is time-consuming, but impressive. This is a great system if you consult your books frequently for research or reference. Keep the ones you use daily on the shelf at eye height. and a couple shelves below, where you can easily see and reach them. Books you only use occasionally go on the lowest shelves. Books that you almost never open go on the shelves above your head. If you have enough books to fill two or three bookcases, fill the most visible bookcase with the important books. If you have an even larger collection, this system may not work well. If you have a large number of books you'd like to read, why not give them their own shelf? Keep an empty shelf on the same bookcase so you can slot the finished books back easily. You might want to revisit your organization once you're through your reading list, but this can be convenient in the meantime. Fill the top shelf with books you read in early childhood, and move down adding books in the rough order you discovered them. This one works best for books with strong associated memories and for people with strong memories as well. No matter which system you chose, you have the option of leaving one special shelf. Usually the most visible one, this is where you keep your first editions, your signed copies, or the books that have changed your life.
Summary: Sort by size. Place books based on color. Arrange by frequency of use. Divide based on your reading plans. Create a chronology of your life. Reserve a shelf for your favorites.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Multiply the total width of the accent wall by the height of your ceiling. This tells you the square footage of the accent wall. Typically, 1 gallon (3.8L) of paint covers around 350 to 400 square feet. Divide your total square footage by 350 or 400 to figure out how many gallons of paint you'll need to cover the wall. A single gallon is enough for most walls, but keep in mind you'll probably need to do 2 coats. If there are windows on the accent wall, subtract 15 square feet from your total square footage. Then divide that number by 350 or 400. If there's a door, subtract 21 square feet before dividing by 350 or 400. Take off the outlet covers, fixtures, switch plates, and window coverings before you get started. Use painter's tape to mask off the window sills, door hinges, baseboards, etc. Protect the floor with a tarp and cover any furniture in the room. Crack a window or get a fan so that the room stays ventilated. Since the color of the accent wall will contrast quite a bit with the ceiling and other adjoining walls, it's important to get a straight, clean line where the accent wall meets them. Crooked or smudged lines will be very noticeable. Apply the tape slowly and be precise for best results. Dirt and debris will prevent the paint from adhering well to the wall, so always clean interior walls before you paint them. Create a mild cleaning solution with warm water and a few drops of dish detergent. Wipe the wall down with a sponge or cloth, working from floor to ceiling and in small sections. Let the wall dry completely before moving on. Primer isn't required, but it's recommended. It will help the paint adhere to the wall, allow for better coverage, and help the paint wear better over time. Buy an indoor paint primer and apply one coat to the accent wall with a roller or paintbrush. Let it dry completely before you start painting. Use a latex-based interior paint for this job. Start applying paint in one of the top corners, working from the ceiling to the floor in small sections. Use an angled brush to get into the corners, then switch to a roller to cover the main wall space faster. Use the angled brush anywhere you need to do detail work. Wait for the first coat to dry, then apply a second coat the exact same way. Let the last coat of paint dry completely before removing the painter's tape and replacing fixtures.

SUMMARY: Calculate how much paint you'll need. Remove the fixtures on the wall and put down protective tarp. Use painter's tape to create clean lines on the adjoining walls. Clean the wall before you paint. Brush on a coat of primer for the best paint coverage (if desired). Apply 2 coats of your chosen paint for the best finish.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Parmesan has a salty, strong taste that only gets stronger with age. Add it to pasta sauces, either on top of the dish or into the sauce as it cooks, to create a deeper flavor. Add parmesan rinds to soups, like minestrone, to achieve the same effect. Dried or cured anchovies add a salty, fishy flavor to food, and can be used in many dishes. Make anchovy butter, by combining anchovies and soft butter, to top toast or steaks. Add anchovy paste to pasta sauces to bring out the flavor of the tomatoes and create a more rounded flavor. Mushrooms have a lot of natural umami flavor, and it's even stronger when they're dried. Add mushrooms to pasta sauce. Chopped or sliced, cooked mushrooms work in white or red sauces. Use dried mushrooms in soups. Add porcini or shiitake mushrooms to soups or ramen to bring out the most flavor. Like mushrooms, tomatoes have natural umami flavor, as well as sweetness. Tomato paste is a thick, concentrated source of tomato flavor, and a little goes a long way. Add a bit of tomato paste in tomato soup, beef stews, pasta sauces, or even gravy. Kombu is a type of kelp, used often in Asian soups to make the base broth. Boil a few pieces of kombu, or other seaweeds, to add an earthy, fishy umami taste to soups and broths.
Summary: Add cheese to pasta dishes and soups. Use anchovies to add the umami taste to a variety of dishes. Use mushrooms. Put tomato paste in your soups and sauces. Add kombu to broths.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: A coat of your concealer will help to secure your lipstick and make its colors more vivid. Try liquid concealer under glossy lipsticks, and powder under matte lipsticks. A thorough coat of lip liner will help your lipstick cling in place. Use a nude shade of lip liner if you'll be applying sheer or neutral lipstick, or try to match the liner to the color lipstick you'll be wearing. Coat your whole pout with lip liner, but avoid filling in your "inner lips" where the teeth naturally hits the lip. Apply your lipstick evenly and within the lip lines. Blot your lips with a tissue to remove excess oils from your first coat, and add a second coat of lipstick to the outer two-thirds of your lips. In addition to providing more vivid colors, a second coat will provide longer-lasting coverage. Form an O with your mouth around your finger, and gently slide your finger straight out of your mouth. This step will remove any lip color remaining on your inner lips, keeping your teeth pearly white. Smile in the mirror and check your teeth for any lingering color. If you see any lipstick, gently rub it away with your pinky finger.
Summary:
Apply concealer or powder. Apply lip liner. Apply your lipstick within the lines using a lip brush. Put your finger in your mouth. Check your smile.
