INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You don't want to have to carry your dirty laundry in your arms all the way to the laundry room. Look for a bag or basket with handles or straps so it's easy to carry. If you have a lot of clothes, get something big enough to hold all your laundry in. Don't wash your light-colored clothes in the same load as your dark-colored clothes or the colors might transfer. Make one pile with your white clothes, one pile with clothes in light colors like gray and beige, and another pile with all of your dark clothes. Pack anything you wore or used from the previous week. Try to keep your lights and darks separated when you pack them in your laundry bag. Fabric softener and dryer sheets are optional, but you'll need laundry detergent to get your clothes clean. Put these items in your laundry bag on top of your clothes so you can access them easily. If your school's machines take quarters, put some quarters in a small baggie or in your pocket. If there's a coin machine, you can bring cash instead. Some laundry machines take debit cards or student IDs as payment, so bring yours along if you're not sure.

SUMMARY: Get a laundry bag or basket. Separate your darks from your lights. Pack your dirty clothes, towels, and bedding in your laundry bag. Grab laundry detergent, fabric softener, and dryer sheets. Bring money for the laundry machines.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Fill a saucepan with 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) of water. Set a heat-safe glass measuring cup into it, then bring the water to a simmer. You will need 4 tablespoons (60 grams) of shea butter, 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of sweet almond oil, and 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of beeswax pellets. If you want something that's more like a lotion, use less beeswax. You can also use a combination of shea butter, cocoa butter, and/or coconut oil. If you don't have any sweet almond oil, you can use jojoba oil or olive oil instead. Stir the ingredients together as they melt. This will help them melt faster and move evenly. Once the ingredients are liquid and combined, use a potholder to grab the measuring cup and lift it out of the water. Set it down on a heat-safe surface, then let it cool for 10 minutes. These oils are wonderful for the skin because of how nourishing and soothing they are. If you can't find any, or just don't like the fragrance, you can use a different type of essential oil. Great options include: frankincense, geranium, lavender, and sandalwood. Another great option is rosehip seed oil. Choose a jar that is able to hold about 4 ounces (120 milliliters). Pour the mixture into the jar, then set it aside so that it can harden. This can take a few hours, but you can speed the process up by placing the jar into the fridge. You can keep this lotion on the counter. If it gets very warm where you live, however, it may liquefy. In this case, store it in the fridge.
Summary: Set up a double-boiler. Add some shea butter, sweet almond oil, and beeswax. Allow the ingredients to melt, then remove them from heat and let them cool. Stir in 10 drops of myrrh and 10 drops of cedar wood essential oil. Pour the mixture into a glass jar, then let it harden. Apply the salve to your hands and feet before going to bed.

The best way to find freelance work is to participate in forums whose members can take advantage of your services. For example, if you perform freelance work in web design, find web design forums. Go to any Internet search engine, and search for forums in your niche using one or more keyword combinations.

Sometimes, websites that post freelance advice or freelance jobs may have forums on their websites you can participate in. Most forums are moderated by senior community members, and your discussions and participation may be monitored to ensure you follow the forum rules and guidelines. Look specifically for restrictions in regards to advertising your freelance business or services. Some forums may prohibit solicitation or prevent you from posting website links into your discussions. Your signature will be a major key to finding freelance work in forums; especially since other members of the community can contact you or learn of your services through the signature. Review the signature guidelines to determine whether you can post your email address or website link into your signature.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: These are the two types of water filters available for home use. POE systems treat all of the water that enters your home and connects to the water meter or pressurized storage tank. POU systems, however, treat water at the point where it is being consumed, such as a shower head or sink. POU filters can be attached externally or can be installed inline. POU filters that are installed inline filter all the water passing through a pipe. These types of filters are very common and come in many different formats. POU filters include pitcher filters, personal water bottles with built-in filters, and refrigerator filters. They can be mounted to a faucet, under the sink, or the countertop. Smaller carafe-style pitcher filters are good for single people or couples since they only filter a small amount of drinking water at a time. Some people do not like filters attached to their countertop or faucet; see which style of POU filter suits you best. This will help you decide if you need to target any specific contaminants when choosing a filtering system. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires water companies to provide a consumer confidence report (CCR) every year, which analyzes the water quality in your area. The information is available on your local government website or newspaper. If you want to test the water yourself, call the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791) for the names of state-certified testing labs, which may offer low-cost or free test kits. You can also go to www.epa.gov/safewater/labs to find out more information. Visible particles in your water can be rust or sediment, and houses that rely on wells often have bacteria in the water. The contaminates your water has will depend on your home. You may discover you do not need a water filter at all because your water contains no contaminants. If you have a family that drinks several gallons of water a day, a single carafe-style filter would need to constantly be refilled, but a smaller family or couple's water needs would be met by a simple filter. If the contaminates in your water are very toxic, you probably want a POE filter to clean all the coming into your house water. On the other hand, if you are only filtering the water for taste, a POU filter on the faucet will suffice. Research the different options. Consider talking to a Certified Water Treatment Professional.
Summary:
Learn about the POE and POU systems. Learn about the different types of POU systems available. Find out what's contaminating your water. Evaluate your specific water filtration needs based on the contaminants in your water and the POE and POU systems.
