INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Clear your work area and wash a ripe papaya and cucumber to remove bacteria or dirt from the skins of both. You will also need to break out your blender or borrow one from a friend. You'll need it to puree your ingredients into a fine paste. Your total supplies include: Papaya (ripe) Banana Cucumber Bowl (for brightening mixture) Knife Blender You should cut your ingredients into the proper proportions, first. Remove the meat of the banana from its encasing skin and divide it in half. Then quarter your papaya and cucumber with a knife. Add all three ingredients to your blender. Banana and papaya both have skin fortifying and disinfecting properties that will cleanse your skin and leave it glowing. Use circular motions to massage a thick layer of your mixture onto your skin. You will want to allow time for the nutrients in your mask to infuse with and impart health benefits to your skin. Papaya has special enzymes in it that exfoliate your skin, and this can leave your skin brighter as a result! Wait for 15 minutes before using warm water to rinse your mixture from your face. Your warm water rinse should have flushed most of your masque from your skin, now you should rinse one more time with cold water. This will take off any residual mixture that's still on your skin and close your pores to prevent blockages. Dry your face by patting it dry. Rubbing might cause irritation, or can rub off fibers onto your face.

SUMMARY: Gather your ingredients and a blender. Add the ingredients to your blender. Massage the mixture into your face. Rinse your face after allowing your mixture to set. Remove any remaining mixture and close your pores.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Take photos of the car from all angles if possible. Ask a family member or friend with a camera to come and take photos if you can't. Take photos of damage and area before you leave the scene or your car is moved for any reason other than clearing traffic. You need to file a claim that includes the photos of the damage to your car, the police report, and any information you collected on the pet (including its owner). You can call your insurance company's claims representative or file online. The company will evaluate your car's damage values and recommend one or more repair shops to use. This will require comprehensive coverage on most policies. Use one of the shops your insurance company covers so you get properly reimbursed. This most likely will mean body work if you hit a dog or a cat.

SUMMARY: Look for damage on your car. Contact your insurance company. Take your car in for repairs.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While your popcorn garland might seem like the finishing touch to your Christmas tree, it's actually easier to hang it when there aren't ornaments in the way. You should add your lights before the garland, though. The best way to hang popcorn strings on your tree is to softly drape them over the branches rather than firmly stuffing them in gaps. Start at the top and carefully work your way down. For a formal look, make sure to drape your popcorn strings in even, uniform loops. For a more casual look, allow the popcorn strings to drape unevenly. If you want your popcorn garland to stand out on your tree, consider doubling up the strings and draping them together over the branches. Once the popcorn strings are in place, you can hang your ornaments on the tree. However, you should take care when placing them among the garlands because you don't want any large, heavy ornaments to rest on the popcorn and possibly break it.

SUMMARY: Add the garland after the tree's lights. Place the garland on the tree. Add ornaments.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You'll need sharp sand (also called concrete sand), Portland cement, and water. How much of each will depend on how much mud you need. Both sharp sand and Portland cement should be readily available at your local hardware supply store. Mix the cement and the sand together until they're well blended. Different people will recommend different ratios for mixing (4:1, 5:1, 6:1, and 7:1), but a ratio of 5 parts sand to 1 part cement is the best starting option. "Stickier", stronger mud should be made using the 4:1 ratio, but this is difficult to mix. With the dry ingredients thoroughly mixed add in water slowly until it reaches the right consistency. It should be vaguely damp and stick together when you compress it in your hand. The consistency will be similar to peanut butter. What type of sand you use and what the environment is like where you live will affect how much water you need to use. Use less if you know that you live in a wet area. Spread your mud as needed for your project. Adjust the ratios if you find they don't work for you.

SUMMARY:
Gather your materials. Mix the cement and sand. Add in the water. Spread and adjust.
