Cover the nuts with lukewarm water. Soak the nuts. Drain and rinse. Dehydrate the nuts. Enjoy the nuts and store leftovers.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Place your nuts into a large bowl. Add enough lukewarm water to completely cover the nuts, plus an extra 2 inches (5 cm) of water. Sprinkle in the salt and stir the nuts to distribute the salt.  You can soak as many nuts at a time as you like. Use a tablespoon (19 g) of salt per 4 cups of nuts that you soak.  You can also soak seeds, beans, grains, and legumes using this same method. Different nuts benefit from various soaking times, and if you're not sure, soak the nuts for 12 to 24 hours. Place the nuts in a cool, dark place for the soaking period. The soaking times for different nuts are:  12 hours for almonds and Brazil nuts 8 hours for hazelnuts, pecans, walnuts, and pine nuts 6 hours for cashews 4 hours for macadamia nuts When the nuts have soaked for their recommended times, drain the water by pouring the nuts into a strainer. Run fresh, cold water over the nuts to rinse them. When the nuts have been rinsed, lay them on a clean towel to remove excess water. Once your nuts are soaked, you can eat them as is without drying them first. But dehydrating the nuts removes the water and makes them crunchier, and many people prefer the texture of crunchy nuts. If you don’t have a dehydrator, place the nuts on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven on the lowest temperature.  Spread the nuts out on the dehydrator trays in a single layer, and arrange the trays in the dehydrator.  Turn on the dehydrator to 150 F (66 C). Dehydrate the nuts for 12 hours and check them for doneness. For crunchier nuts, dehydrate them for an additional three to 12 hours. Transfer leftover dehydrated nuts to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for two weeks. For a longer shelf-life, store the nuts in the freezer for up to two months. If you opted to not dehydrate your nuts, store them in the refrigerator and eat them within 24 hours of draining.


Cover the object with the patina mixture. Cover the object. Reapply the aging compound. Continue reapplying as desired. Clean the object with a clean cloth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you've cleaned up your copper piece and sprayed it with the window cleaner, apply the aging compound, covering the object completed. Make sure to get into even the smallest spaces, creating an even coat. Don't over-do it. It's not necessary to soak the piece, so it's dripping all over the place. Just use enough to wet it in an even coat. To create humidity, it's usually recommended that you place the copper object into a plastic bag, or tent it under a piece of plastic to create an artificial environment while the aging compound works. Allow the piece to sit undisturbed for about an hour. If you live in an area with high humidity, or if you apply the mixture during a rainstorm, you do not need the plastic's artificial environment. In general, it's an advantage to try to age copper at the wettest or most humid point in the year, to give yourself the best natural benefit in the environment. Remove the item from the plastic and apply the patina mix again, once more making certain that you have covered the entire metallic surface. Return it to the humidifying bag or tent, and allow it to rest overnight. The amount of coloring you want on your copper piece will be up to you. Remove the piece from the bag each morning and examine it thoroughly, then add more aging compound if necessary and repeat the process if you want to get more color on the piece. In general, you probably won't want to age a piece using this method for too long, especially if you live in a humid climate. Remember that the copper will age naturally with time, as well, so you don't have to do too much to get the effect you want on an object you'll have for a long time. After you've achieved the age coloring you like, spritz a clean cloth with a small amount of window cleaner and wipe it down to get any of the remnants of the aging compound off, and return the copper to it's place.


Cover the plants with plastic to kill them. Pour boiling water over the roots to get rid of small plants. Employ a goat to do the job, if possible. Spray bleach on the plants as an alternative. Plant your yard with healthy ground cover to discourage poison oak.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Use plastic sheeting to cover poison oak plants that are in a contained area. This works best if you first cut the plant down to a few inches above the ground. The dead roots must be removed and discarded properly, or they'll come back. Heat up your tea kettle until the water has come to a rolling boil. Take it outside and pour it near the roots of the poison oak plant. The boiling water should kill the plant, but you'll need to get rid of the roots. This method is better for small plants. Large shrubs probably won't be affected. If you use this method, be very careful not to breathe in any steam that rises from the boiled plant. Goats love to eat poison oak (they aren't affected by the oils) and since they're always hungry, they can clear out an area riddled with the stuff in no time at all. This is a great natural way to get rid of poison oak plants. Check around to see if there's a goat farm in your area. It's becoming increasingly popular for goat owners to hire out their goats for natural landscape management.  If you go this route, you'll need to get the roots in order to make sure the plants grow back. However, you could instead hire goats every spring to keep them maintained. Interestingly, goats that eat poison oak produce milk that's free of the toxic oils. Fill a spray bottle half full with warm water. Add 1/2 cup (136.5 g) of salt, 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of hydrogen peroxide, and 2 cups (470 ml) of bleach to the bottle. Put the sprayer on the bottle and shake it to mix the ingredients. Then, spray the poison oak plants liberally with the mixture. Since poison oak tends to thrive in "disturbed" areas with bare soil, you can prevent it from invading by planting other plants to take up that open space.


Cover the pool. Use air pillows.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The floating tarp cover is not child/pet proof. It's essential to use a cover that fits well and doesn't leave any gaps or cracks for debris to enter the pool over the winter.  An anchored, strapped down, reinforced, mesh safety cover would tightly fit the pool to protect it. It helps prevent a child or pet from wandering into the pool. Waterproof, "solid floating covers" (like large, flexible-vinyl tarps) lie loosely on the surface of the lowered pool water and run up the walls. Some people add a little water on top of the cover to keep the surface weighted down. Watch to see whether you need to clean debris off the cover. It may be necessary to pump rainwater, snow-melt off the cover. You could use an automatic cover pump on the cover for as long as water getting on the tarp fall through spring. Scatter 1/2 full water bags around the edges of the pool, out of your way. Center the cover over the pool. Press the cover edges down so it lies on the water, and the remainder lies on the deck.  Fold any excess cover under and weight all edges with the water bags so there is no part of the tarp to blow around the entire edge of the pool. Water bags can be emptied for storage in the spring, while sand bags are not convenient.  If you have trees that would continue to shed leaves surrounding your pool, you can place a leaf net over it to catch debris to prevent a soggy mess on top off the cover. Some trees shed all leaves in 3 weeks are not a continual problem. Air pillows prevent the expansion of ice in above-ground pools, but they aren't necessary to use in in-ground pools.  Inflate air pillows with a leaf blower or shop vacuum and tie them down in the center of the pool. Larger pools require two or more air pillows.


Cover the subfloor with 15 lb (6.8 kg) builder’s felt. Place spacers against the wall. Start the first row in the corner of the longest exterior wall in the room. Place a straightedge against the tongues of the first row. Nail each board within 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the wall. Toenail the first row. Lay down the second row of flooring. Tap each row snugly against the one before it. Toenail the next row. Leave 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) between the last row and the wall.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Run the felt in the same direction that your flooring will be going. You probably won't be able to use one piece of felt to cover the whole floor. In that case, set the felt so that the edges touch. Use a hammer tacker to staple down the felt edges every 4 feet (1.2 m) and within 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) of the wall. When you’re finished laying the felt, hammer down on staples that aren’t flush with the floor. The spacers should be 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) thick. Lay them against the wall where you’re laying your first row of flooring and the adjacent wall, about 4 inches (10 cm) apart. This keeps your flooring spaced and prevents buckling. Spacers are usually included in your flooring, but if they aren't, you can purchase them at most home improvement stores. Lay your first piece of flooring so that the grooved edge of the wood is against the spacers. Then butt up the next piece of flooring next to the original piece, making a long strip along the wall with the spacers. Use a mallet to tap the end of each strip so they fit snugly together. The front edge of each piece of flooring should have a tongue—a little piece that sticks out. Use a straight edge to line up against the tongues and pull the flooring forward so every piece is flush against the straightedge. Once you’ve got the first row laid down, nail the board down within 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the wall. This secures the first row of flooring and prevents any movement as you stack more rows. Nail the boards with 1.5 in (3.8 cm) nails every 8 inches (20 cm). You can use a regular hammer and nails, but a pneumatic nail gun is quicker and easier. Once you’ve got the first row nailed near the wall, you’ll need to toenail it. This means driving a 1.5 in (3.8 cm) nail at a 45-degree angle through the tongue of the boards. Repeat this every 4 inches (10 cm) and no closer than 2 inches (5.1 cm) to the edge nearest the adjacent wall. As you lay the second row of flooring, make sure you’re choosing lengths that don’t line up exactly with the first row. Otherwise your edges will...


Cover the table with newspaper. Wear a bib. Set out dipping sauces. Decide on your tools.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A crab feast is messy. Covering the table with newspaper makes the meal less worrisome and the clean up much faster. Wearing a bib will keep your clothes safe from the mess of the meal. It’s not a good idea to wear your best clothes to a crab feast, so consider wearing something that is not easily stained. Crab feasts usually come with small dishes off melted butter. Apple cider vinegar is another favorite dipping sauce. Use a paring knife to pick apart a crab. Use a mallet is used to crack open the claws. If you don’t want to use tools, picking apart a crab with your hands is just fine.


Cover the walls. Dress up the ceiling with streamers and balloons. Set the mood with lighting.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The walls are an obvious place to start when you’re decorating a room for a party. If you’re celebrating a specific milestone, such as a birthday, anniversary, or graduation, you may want to hang a banner for the event on the wall. Photos, posters, artwork, festive garlands, and other signs that you can find the party supply store are ideal options.  For an party that honors specific people, you may want to hang photos of them on the wall. For example, if you’re celebrating your parents’ anniversary, decorate with copies of their wedding photos or other meaningful moments in their lives. If you’re celebrating a friend’s birthday, you may want to use baby photos to decorate. If your party has a specific theme, you can use photos or artwork that fit the look, such as photos of your favorite movie stars for a Hollywood theme, on the walls. You don’t have to ruin your walls to hang photos or other artwork on the walls. Use removable mounting tape on the backs, or run a piece of string or ribbon across the walls and use clothespins or binder clips to attach the photos to the string. If you have scraps of ribbon at home, make a fun garland to decorate the walls or any columns or railings in the room. Loop the small scraps around the longest piece of ribbon and tie them off in bows for a festive look. You don’t want to overlook the ceiling when it comes to decorating the room for your party. Simple streamers and balloons are usually the best way to go. Hang the streamers across the ceiling so they all meet at the center, where you can arrange a cluster of balloons to hide the tape. You can also place balloons at the ceiling’s corners for added color.  When you’re hanging streamers across the ceiling, you can keep the crepe paper straight or twist it as you go to give them a spiraled effect. While you can arrange balloons in haphazard bunches, it’s also fun to create flowers out of them. Gather five or six balloons in the same color to serve as the petals, and place them around a yellow balloon that be the flower’s...


Cover the wax with paper towel. Heat the area with an iron. Use a blow dryer instead. Replace the paper towels as needed until the area is clean. Wash the area.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Grab two pieces of paper towel and lay the double layer on top of the wax spill. For moveable carpets, rugs, and fabrics, place two sheets of paper towel on the underside of the spill as well. When you heat the wax, the paper towels will absorb it.  You can also use a single layer of a white or brown paper bag if you don’t have paper towel. Just make sure there's no ink, wax, or printing on the bag. You can also use blotting paper, which is an absorbent material meant to soak up oil and other liquids. Turn an iron on to the low temperature setting and wait for it to heat up. When the iron is hot, press it gently into the paper towel where the wax is. Move the iron slowly from side to side to warm the area. As the wax heats and re-melts, the paper towel will absorb it.  Don’t use steam settings to heat the wax, as it will soak the paper towel and prevent it from absorbing the wax. You can use this method to remove wax from carpeting, leather, faux leather, denim, suede, micro suede, and other materials. For materials that didn’t pass the heat test, use a blow dryer on the hot setting to heat the wax. Hold the blow dryer 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) from the carpet. Direct the hot air at the wax spill and apply gentle pressure to the paper towel with your other hand. You may have to use the blow dryer instead of the iron for materials that can melt, such as synthetics like polyester, faux fur materials, and other polymer-based fabrics. As the paper towels becomes saturated with wax, replace the sheets above and below the material with fresh sheets. This will allow the wax to continue absorbing, and prevent it from spreading to a larger area. Continue heating the wax with the iron, saturating the paper towels, and replacing the paper towels until the towels stop absorbing wax. For machine washable fabrics like clothing and table cloths, treat the area with a stain remover and then launder it in the washing machine. For non-washable materials like carpeting, spray the area with carpet cleaner and blot it with a...


Cover unused areas on the page. Use a pencil extender to get your money's worth. Remove wax buildup. Remove marks made with your Prismacolors. Treat your Prismacolor pencils gently.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Over the course of your blending, it's easy to accidentally spread color to an area you hadn't intended. To prevent this, you might cover the areas you don't want blending with removable tape. For large areas, to save on tape you might decide to use a piece of scrap paper held in place by a few small pieces of tape. Prismacolor pencils can be very expensive, so it's a good idea to get the most out of every pencil you purchase. A pencil extender will allow you to hold the end nub of a used pencil more easily so you can use every last bit. Wax is a component used in manufacturing your colored pencils. Over time it can rise to the surface of your drawing to create buildup on the image. This can be removed without harming your artwork by wiping it away firmly with a clean, dry cloth or moderately stiff bristle brush. You'll often find that wax buildup occurs in areas you have heavily applied your colored pencil to a specific area. Keep an eye on these areas for buildup. Prismacolor pencils leave behind marks that can be difficult to erase, though you may have some success with a normal eraser. However, it's likely you'll have the best success with an electric eraser. You can also lift unwanted marks by applying and peeling free adhesive putty, like the kind used to hang posters and artwork. Even with an electric eraser, it's likely some remnant of the Prismacolor will remain. Avoid erasing too much to try and completely erase the mark. Doing so could result in a ripped page. The colored cores of your Prismacolors are relatively fragile and can break from dropping or rough handling. These breaks can result in inconsistent drawing or wasted lead, so you may want to keep your pencils in a box or case to keep them protected.


Cover up the pimple with makeup. Use accessories to distract from the pimple. Get a good night’s sleep

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If none of the natural or professional products work on your pimple, you may need to use makeup to hide it. You can use makeup concealer over the pimple so it is less noticeable.  Apply foundation and/or tinted moisturizer to your face. Then, apply a skincare serum or face moisturizer to the pimple. This will give the area around the pimple more moisture and calm down the red skin. Take your concealer and draw a small X over the pimple. You may use the wand if your concealer comes with a wand or use a small makeup brush to apply the concealer. Draw a circle around the X. Using a clean fingertip, lightly tap the concealer into your skin. Dab, rather than rub, the concealer around and over the pimple. You should then apply foundation with a brush to set the concealer. This will ensure the concealer stays over the pimple. You can also wear accessories like a bold necklace or earrings to distract from the pimple on your face. You may try to have your accessories go with your outfit and show off another part of your body, like your ears or your neck, to distract from the pimple. . You can also improve the appearance of your skin overall by getting a good night’s sleep. Getting at least eight hours of sleep will help your skin to appear less puffy and irritated in the morning. Make sure you wash and moisturize your face before you go to bed to ensure your skin is not irritated further during the night. You may also want to apply a spot treatment product that contains salicylic acid to the pimple and leave it on overnight.


Cover up, even on cloudy days. Open an umbrella. Stay indoors.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Long sleeves may not be too fun in the heat, but you’ll need to cover as much skin as you can while you’re outside.  Clouds make very little difference in the sun’s effect on your skin, too, blocking a mere 20% of UV rays.  And if you thought you were safe on the ski slopes, think again: snow actually reflects 80% of UV rays, increasing exposure. So if you were planning on skiing shirtless for some reason… maybe don’t. Admittedly, you might feel a little silly at first, but it’s a surefire way to block out the sun during your walk down the block. Consider a parasol if you’re looking for something a little more chic. Don’t entrust it all to an umbrella at the beach, however. As you might’ve guessed after learning of snow’s powerful reflective potential, sand, too, reflects UV rays. Not as bad as snow—only 17% from sand—but still enough for the sun to make its mark. When it comes down to it, staying inside will keep you the palest. Full-on hermit life isn’t an option for everyone, though, and keep in mind it’s not a requirement to keeping your skin lighter if you can abide by the above steps. The body does requires Vitamin D, though, and nutritional guidelines for vitamin D (600 IU from ages 1-70) are generally set with the assumption that a person will be receiving some regular sunlight.  Fatty fish, beef liver, eggs, cheese, and mushrooms provide some vitamin D, and U.S. milk is often fortified with it.


Cover with cloth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In the old days, it was commonplace for people to cover their books with cloth. Cloth covering is not only biodegradable but serves as excellent cover protector - antiquarian books can be purchased today which are largely intact still thanks to cloth covers having been lovingly added many decades before. It's also a very sophisticated statement for book lovers. Covering a book with cloth requires basic knowledge of stitching, as you will need to sew up the corners:  Cut the fabric about 2.5"/5 centimeter (2.0 in) larger than the book. Fold around the edges of the book into the inner cover. Keep in place using sewing pins or safety pins. Test for fit. The cover shouldn't prevent the book from closing neatly, nor should the cover billow out with excess fabric. Adjust until the fit is good. Trim the area around the spine so that the cover fits snugly. Trim any excess fabric areas. There shouldn't be an excess of fabric inside the book cover - aim for regularity of width. Stitch the cover together. Use a little glue to adhere the corners to the book cardboard after stitching if the book is yours; if it is a borrowed text, skip this step - the cloth will stay in place provided you handle the book carefully. Finish off neatly. Discard the fabric if you need to return the book. The fabric can be reused or composted, depending on its origin.


Cover your coffee and water mixture, then leave it on your counter.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Allow the coffee to steep for 12 - 24 hours, depending on how strong you want your cold brewed coffee.  You can occasionally stir the mixture while it is steeping to ensure even saturation of coffee grounds. Some recommend placing your coffee mixture into the refrigerator. While this is not necessary, as the coffee will not spoil at room temperature, it will result in a colder cold brew when the process is finished.


Cover your counter and put on a mask and safety goggles. Make the tile where you wish to cut it. Cut along the top, bottom, and side edges. Use an oscillating cutter to cut through tight corners. Pull the tile away.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Cover your counter with plastic sheeting to protect it and make cleaning up easier. Put on a pair of safety goggles to protect your eyes against dust. Finally, put on a mask suitable for working with fine particles. Most dust masks and respirator masks come with a description of what they are used for, such as sanding dust, aerosol, etc. Choose the one for dust. A pencil may work just fine on a slate or ceramic tile, but if the tile is glazed, you should switch to a marker. Try to be as precise as possible for this step. If you need to get inside the wall, then you should cut through the dry wall as well. A dremel rotary cutter with a diamond tile blade will work for most tiles.  If your blade can't go around the corners, skip them for now. Installing a new electrical fixture will require you to get inside the wall. Mounting a towel rack does not. While a dremel rotary tool will work for most lines, it won't work on tight corners. For that, you should switch to an oscillating cutter instead. You may have to experiment before you find the right one for your type of tile. A multi-surface blade seems to work better than a tile blade, however. Wedge a thin knife or spatula behind the tile and pop it out. If you had to cut through the wall, try not to lose anything inside the wall. Your hole is now complete and ready to finish.


Cover your hair with a silk scarf. Sleep in the rags overnight and untie them in the morning. Tousle your hair with your fingers and spray them with hairspray.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When all of your hair is tied up in the rags, cover it up with a silk scarf. This will help you to be more comfortable while you’re sleeping and prevent the rags from untying and coming out.  Silk scarves can be purchased at beauty supply stores, department stores, and online. This step is optional for the most comfort and best results; if you don’t have a silk scarf, you can still go to sleep with your rag rolls in without wearing one. A silk pillowcase also works as a way to reduce friction between your curls and the pillow. If you already sleep on a silk pillowcase, you don’t need to cover your hair with a scarf. Regardless of what kind of pillowcase you use, a scarf can help minimize frizz and tangles if you tend to toss and turn a lot at night. Go to sleep with your rag rolls tied in place. The rags may feel unusual or uncomfortable if you’re not used to sleeping with anything in your hair, but you will get used to it. In the morning, untie each of them and watch your curls unfold.  If a specific curl is extremely uncomfortable or hurts when you lay down, the rag may be tied a bit too tight. You can loosen the rag by untying the knot then re-tying it looser. Make sure your hair is completely dry before you remove the rags, or your curls will not set properly. If your hair is still a little damp when you get up, you can either leave the rags in a little longer or speed up the drying process with a hair dryer. Avoid brushing or combing your curls, especially if your hair doesn’t hold curl easily. Simply run your fingers through your hair gently to spread the curls out. Spray a light layer of hairspray all over your curls to hold them.  Set your curls with a volumizing hairspray for best results. If your hair is very fine, avoid using too much hairspray so you don’t weigh the curls down and make them fall out. A light layer of spray on all of your curls will be sufficient to hold them.


Cover your hair. Leave it like this for 40 minutes. Rinse out the bleach when your hair is light enough.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Put a shower cap, aluminum foil, or clear/white plastic bag over your hair. Make sure it's not covering your face, but is over all of your hair. Then tie it at the nape of your neck, making sure all of your hair is tucked underneath the bag.  If you want a higher lift, use aluminum foil instead of a plastic bag. If you are using a grocery bag, make sure the side with printing on it is NOT against your head, or you will wind up with the color of the print processed into your hair a bit. Start timing from when you first started applying the bleach. Check your timer. If you leave it on for longer, it won't get any lighter, it will only damage your hair more.   Check the color all the time. Once at a pale yellow, you must wash off the bleach. Don't leave bleach on for over an hour. Don't bleach any more once at pale yellow or your hair will break. If you’ve gone as long as you safely can and your hair is still not pale yellow, then rinse it out, tone your hair, and wait a month to re-bleach your hair.    Wash out with a PH neutralizing shampoo. This will stop any further acidic or basic chemical reactions from occurring on your head. This will formally end the bleaching process.  You ‘’must’’ wash out the bleach mixture completely, or else you will damage your hair. After a while, the developer and powder stop reacting and your hair won't bleach any more, only become more damaged. If you over-bleach, your hair might end up feeling a little bit straw-like and brittle. If you're in doubt, rinse it out. Make sure to use a shampoo and conditioner designed for bleached blonde hair to eliminate any yellow and make your hair bright platinum and white. Any purple shampoo is fine. Remember purple counteracts yellow, makes it white, and eliminates brassiness.


Cover your head with a shower cap. Let your mask sit for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Apply your curd hair mask once every 1-2 weeks for healthy, shiny hair.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Stretch the edge of the shower cap around your head so all of the hair is inside. This way, your hair is covered as it processes. The extra heat generated from inside the plastic shower cap also helps your hair absorb the curd. Additionally, the shower cap will prevent your mask from drying out. If it dries, it won't provide as many benefits. After about 30 minutes, the curd and added ingredients should deeply penetrate your hair. For maximum absorption, let your hair process for about 1 hour.  As you wait, you can read a book, flip through a magazine, or watch TV, for example. If you’d like, set a timer on your phone or kitchen clock to easily keep track of how long the mask is on your hair. Use your curd hair mask at least once every 15 days. For best results, you can use the mask once or twice a week. Regularly using a curd hair mask may promote hair growth, increase hair thickness, and improve overall hair health.


Cover your jacket, clothing, and bag with pins and buttons. Accessorize your wrists with leather, studded, or chain bracelets. Pick thick metal necklaces or chokers to accessorize your neck. Wear a studded leather belt at your waist or hips. Carry a black leather, studded or personalized bag.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Look for pins and buttons that feature your favorite bands, ironic sayings, or your interests. Mix together different themes and sizes to create a look that’s uniquely yours. Put buttons on anything you wear, like your jacket, shirt, and bags. You can find buttons and pins online, at concerts, or at stores that sell accessories. Leather and thick metal are your go-to accessory options. Leather bracelets that are covered with studs are a classic metal look. Wear 1 bracelet or several bracelets at a time. For instance, you might wear a leather cuff on each arm. As another option, wear a leather cuff, studded cuff, and metal chain all on the same arm. Thick chains and leather chokers are perfect for a metal look. Like with other accessories, studs and spikes are a great option. You can wear 1 necklace or several at a time. If you’re wearing a pendant, pick something heavy and metal, such as a big iron cross or a guitar pick. Put your belt at your waistband or sling it along your hips. You might also use it to belt your shirt over your pants. Play around with your belts by layering more than 1. Pick belts that are different sizes, like a thick studded belt and a thin red leather belt. If you want to carry a handbag, pick one that’s either black leather or military green. Look for a bag that has metal studs in it for more edge, or alter your bag to make it more personal. Add buttons, glue on studs, or paint it. For instance, you might carry a green messenger bag to school or work, and a leather studded bag as a purse.


Cover your nose and mouth with a thick tissue. Sneeze into your elbow. Don't sneeze into your hands. Wash your hands Stay away from people.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This is the best way to contain your germs. Cold virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and influenza are are passed by droplets in the air. Releasing these viruses through sneezing and coughing is the main way these diseases are spread. Practicing respiratory etiquette (covering your mouth and nose, washing your hands, etc.) can help reduce the chances you'll get anyone else sick. Make sure to dispose of your used tissues right away to help prevent them from spreading your germs. If you don't have a tissue, the best way to catch your sneeze is to bend your elbow and hold it close to your face while sneezing. This works best if you are wearing long sleeves. The goal is to contain the sneeze with your clothing so it doesn't spread into the air. Even though your hands might contain the sneeze, think about how many things you will have to touch with them! You will only be spreading germs around as you touch things.  While sneezing into your hands is not desirable, it is definitely preferable to not containing your sneeze at all. If you have nothing else to sneeze into and sneeze into your hands, make sure you wash your hands immediately. You can also use hand sanitizer for this purpose as well. . Whenever you sneeze, it is very important to get rid of any residual germs by washing your hands with soap and water right away. This is especially important if you sneezed into your hands or into a tissue. In order to ensure that you wash your hands thoroughly, the CDC recommends wetting your hands with clean water, applying and lathering soap all over your hands, scrubbing for 20 seconds, rinsing with clean water, and then drying your hands with a clean towel or letting them air dry. Sneezes can come on unexpectedly, and no one expects you to keep your distance from other people at all times just in case. If, however, you are sick and are sneezing a lot, do your best to give other people some space. This includes staying home from work or school when sick if at all possible. You may worry that this will negatively affect...

You can use a plastic grocery bag, a resealable gallon bag, or a shower cap to cover your shoes. Or, place your shoes inside the drawstring dust bag that they came in when you bought them. This way, you can protect your clothes from dirt and smells.  If you do not have a bag, use tissue paper or saran wrap instead. Place bulky shoes, like sneakers and boots, in different bags, so you can pack them separately in your suitcase. Shoes can become squished into overly stuffed suitcases, warping their shape. Place rolled socks in your shoes, platforms, and stilettos. If your shoes get squished, the socks will help them retain their shape. Keep your formal shoes clean and safe from damage and dirt by wrapping them in something soft. Place your shoes inside a bag. Then wrap pajamas, a sweatshirt, or a scarf around your shoes to protect them.


Cover your whole forehead and ears for a classic look. Roll the cuff of the beanie once for a warmer wrap around the ears. Wear the beanie higher on your head. Give your bangs a little sweep. Leave your hair down. Wear a low ponytail. Try wearing a baggier beanie if you have especially curly hair.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The front of the beanie should be just a little over your eyebrows. Leave the beanie a little loose on top and in the back. Push your bangs beneath the hat, especially if they are a little greasy or flat. If you plan on being out in the cold for an extended period this will help keep you warm and stylish. The beanie will be mostly pulled down and snug as a result, and it should cover your forehead, ears, and neck. This style can work especially well if you let your bangs loose in the front of the beanie. For a fun little twist on the everyday, wear the hat over your forehead. The excess material of the hat can either stand up (this style is more fashionable on men than women), or you can give it a slight fold in the back. This style, called the "Peter Pan," causes the beanie to sit a little higher on your head and keeps it off your neck. The hat will only cover part of your ears as a result, though. This style works well with both hidden bangs and revealed bangs.  This can create a more dramatic effect by choosing a beanie the contrasts your hair color. For dark hair a light colored beanie, and a dark beanie for lighter hair. Some beanies can be little more slouchy. Slouchy styles are simply great for giving you that cool off-duty appearance. Simply wear your beanie shoved back on your head while leaving the back of your beanie loose and slouchy. If you want a look that seems a little more stylish than usual, wear your hat in a looser style further up on your head and leave your bangs out. Sweep them off the the side a bit for a playful twist. If you have short enough bangs, you can let them hang straight down over your eyebrows. The beanie will flatten your bangs out, though, so this style tends not to work if you have longer bangs that would come down over your eyes. It also works best if you have long hair rather than short or medium hair. The easiest thing to do to your hair when wearing your beanie is to simply leave it down. Leaving your hair down prevents any strange bulges from appearing underneath...


Cover your windows with privacy film. Tape aluminum foil over your windows. Purchase blackout curtains with liners. Sew blackout curtains yourself. Buy blackout shades. Close blinds and drapes over the window covering.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Several companies make “privacy film,” which is basically removable, cut-to-size plastic film that you can adhere to your windows. While this film alone will not completely block out light, it will reduce the amount of light that comes through your windows. Aluminum helps reflect the sunlight coming in through the windows, so it can reduce your utility bills as well as block light. Use painter’s tape to secure the foil to avoid damaging your windows. If you rent your home, be aware that some property managers will not allow foiled windows. If you’re not sure whether you’re permitted to use foil, ask first. Blackout curtains are usually made from thicker fabrics and have liners that block light. In addition, they can reduce your utility bills because they help insulate your home.  You can also search for “thermal” curtains, which are also heavy and lined and serve the same purpose. If you really like your curtains, you can purchase just a blackout liner and hang it behind your existing curtains using clips or a second rod. IKEA, Home Depot, and many department stores sell blackout liners. If you’re crafty, you can often  sew curtains yourself for much cheaper than purchasing them. Most fabric stores sell “blackout drapery lining” and thermal fabrics that you can use behind any curtain fabric you choose. You can even sew linings into your existing curtains. Roller shades, roman shades, and other fabric window shades often block more light than curtains alone. They are widely available from home supply stores, departments stores, and online. You can also make your own shades from blackout fabric. While these may not be as attractive as purchased shades, they are usually cheaper. Drapes and blinds will help block any light that still comes in through filmed or foiled windows


Cover your work space in newspaper. Place the stainless steel item flat on your work space, if possible.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You might not be able to do this in all circumstances, such as when trying to get a sticker off a fridge. But if you're working on a table or countertop, you'll want to make sure to prevent spillage, as oil can stain some surfaces. This will prevent the oil from spilling. Be careful when placing the surface flat. If it's an appliance, such as a toaster, you'll want to make sure it's not balanced on a protruding piece. If balanced in such a way, it might shift as you work and cause a spill.


Crack an egg into a small bowl. Whisk in the milk and food coloring. Stir in the diced ham. Heat up a frying pan with some butter or oil. Pour the scrambled onto the pan. Serve the scrambled green eggs and ham.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Be careful not to get any egg shells into the bowl. You will need 1 teaspoon of milk and 1 drop of food coloring. Stir everything together until the color is even. You don't want any streaks or swirls. You can also use green food coloring instead to get a brighter shade of green. Cut 1 to 2 slices of ham into tiny cubes. Something around 1/2-inch (1.27-centimeter) would work the best. Once you have enough to fill 1 tablespoon, add it to the bowl. Stir it in with a rubber spatula. Place a frying pan on the stove. Add about 1/2 tablespoon of butter or canola oil. Turn the heat up to medium-low. Wait for the butter to melt or the oil to sizzle.  Tilt the pan around to spread the melted butter or oil around. Add an adult for help with this step. Don't stir until the eggs have begun to set, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to fold the cooked eggs over as they cook. Chop up the eggs with the tip of the spatula. Use a spatula to scoop everything onto a plate. Serve it with some toast or jelly rolls.


Crack open the rock with a hammer. Identify the minerals inside. Cut and polish your geode.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Use a rock hammer or pickax to crack open the suspected geode. Place the rock on the ground and strike it in the center with a hammer to split it into two pieces. While there are clues that can lead you to geodes, the only way to verify whether you’ve truly found one is to take a look inside.  Make sure to wear safety goggles while trying to open the geode. If you do not want to attempt to open the geode yourself, you can also take it to a rock or gem store to have it opened for you. Use a mineral identification key to determine what kind of mineral your geode contains. Match the descriptions in the key to the appearance of the crystals found inside of your geode in order to properly identify what kind you have unearthed. Mineral keys describe the mineral’s habit, which refers to its key characteristics and features. Use a chisel and hammer to break off pieces of the geode to clean and polish. Use a handheld rotary sander to grind the geodes into shape then rub them with a polishing cloth until you begin to see luster.  Polishing your geode will bring out the most in its beauty. You can also coat your geode with mineral oil to increase its luster.


Crack open your idea and mix in the creativity. Choose a suitable platform. Give yourself plenty of time. Do not fear the not-yet-tried. Immerse yourself. Recycle, repurpose, reuse. Be careful what you open. Remember:

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You'll be coming to this development with an idea; it could be anything.  Take that idea and flip it on its head - think to yourself "this idea would never work as an X...", then challenge yourself and make it work!  Or, take a random idea generator (examples are explored below in Part 3, the step commencing with 'Immerse yourself'). Think whether your activity could be inspired by something in that resource. Alternatively, look around you and find a random item, e.g. a spoon, and apply it to the learning activity you have in mind, e.g. cultural analysis and comparison through the use of a culture's cutlery - or - poetry about common objects, displayed in their shape to make interesting art works. When making an OER, you need to think not only about the suitability of the delivery platform for the initial intended content use but also its suitability for future (re)use. Delivery needs to be 'open' - freely accessible, no password protection - and ideally editable (at the very least, able to be copied). You do not need to always make a new website: you could develop and upload a text-based document; create a bank of new images in an existing space; edit an existing space, like a wiki; create a closed resource but share how you made it openly through social media; or you could develop a new webpage. These are just a few examples. Good learning resources often take a lot of time to develop through reflection and sourcing content. This is especially true with OERs, as finding open content - or authoring your own images and text, etc. - can take a lot of time. That said, it's well worth the effort. Often you will find yourself stumbling upon something new and unexpected through your development journey. In turn, this may inspire you to decide to completely change what you initially had in mind. No worries, just run with it! The time you had spent up to then was not wasted, it helped you achieve your new and exciting plan. Things can seem scary, then you put flowers in it! Be prepared to take risks and try...


Crack the egg into a small bowl.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You can use any type of egg and any sized egg. Keep in mind that a jumbo chicken egg will make more egg wash than a small chicken egg or quail egg. If you want to make a dark egg wash, use just the yolk and a pinch of salt. The salt will liquefy the yolk so it's easier to spread.


Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them. Heat a couple of pats of butter in a medium frying pan. Add the eggs to the pan and spread them out. Fold the omelette over. Remove the omelette when it starts to brown.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Knock the egg gently on a flat surface to crack it. Use your thumbs to pry it open over a small bowl. Repeat for the other 2 eggs. Add in a couple of dashes of salt and pepper, and beat the eggs together with a fork.  To beat the eggs, gently break up the yolks with the fork by piercing them. Then, whip the eggs in a circular motion to mix them up. If eggshells drop in the bowl, use another piece of eggshell to fish them out. Place a frying pan on the stove over medium to medium-high heat. Add the butter to the pan, and let it cook until it's foaming. Spread it out over the pan with a spatula. Pour your egg mixture into the pan, and move the pan around so the eggs go all the way to the edge of the pan. You can also use a fork or a spatula to help spread them out. Let the eggs cook as is for a few minutes. Run your spatula under the edges of the omelette all the way around, though be gentle. Fold one side of the omelette over the other side, like a taco. The bottom of the omelette will start to turn light brown. When it does, tilt the pan slightly over a plate, and use your spatula to guide it down onto the plate.  Sprinkle a bit of fresh parsley over the omelette if you'd like. If your omelette happens to come out a little underdone, never fear. You can either stick it back in the pan for a few minutes on the other side, or you can even place it in the microwave for 30 seconds or so. However, the middle should be fairly soft.


Crack the eggs into a separate container (optional). Wait for the bottoms of the eggs to solidify. Serve.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Grab a bowl, cup or ramekin big enough to hold your eggs. Break the flat side of each egg on the rim of the container and let the contents drain into it. To save time, do this while waiting for your pan to heat up. Don't crack the eggs directly into the hot pan. If you do this, it's easier to break the yolks or cook your eggs unevenly. You also have less control over where they will lie in the pan. Now, let the eggs cook without disturbing them for a minute or two. You want the bottoms of the whites to be fully set (but not hard) before you proceed. Depending on your pan and the level of heat you're using, this will take anywhere from about 45 seconds to two minutes. Keep your eyes on the edges of the whites — they are thinner than the center, so they will solidify first. When you notice that the edges are solid, you can proceed even if the whites in the middle are still a little liquid. Congratulations! Your over easy eggs are done. Transfer out of the pan to a plate and serve with toast, bacon, hash browns, or other breakfast favorites.


Crack the eggs into the bowl. Pour the butter or oil into the frying pan. Add the omelette mixture. Sprinkle the cheese over the omelette. Serve hot.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Add the parsley, chopped tomato and celery pieces and mix well. Then add the noodles and mix through. Heat gently. Cook for 5 minutes without stirring. If possible, place the omelette under a grill to brown. Slide the omelette onto a serving plate. Serve with a side salad.


Crack the shell first, but don't peel it.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Try to crack both ends of the shell first, as this is where the air pockets tend to be. To make the shell even easier to peel, roll the egg across the counter with your palm. This will help loosen the membrane from the whites.


Crack two eggs into a clean bowl. Finely dice your vegetables. Include meat. Cook rice Mash up an avocado.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Then, use a whisk or fork to beat the eggs until they are evenly mixed. Whisk for no longer than 20 seconds. If you beat the eggs for too long, they may grow dense.  Consider adding a few tablespoons of milk or half-and-half to give the egg a fluffier texture. Water also works, in the same increment. Consider mixing cheese into the eggs. Use shredded cheese of your choice. Cheddar and jack usually work well in a breakfast burrito! You can use whatever you have around, or you can buy vegetables specifically for the burrito. Common breakfast burrito ingredients include:  Fresh bell peppers, roasted peppers, and hot peppers. Onions: any type, cooked. Fresh, ripe tomatoes: be aware that juicy tomatoes will make for a messy burrito. Mushrooms: fresh, clean, any variety. Potatoes: diced finely and cooked. This makes for a heartier burrito. Most of the other vegetables do not absolutely need to be cooked – but you must cook your potatoes. If you eat meat, use the meat of your choice to lend some heft to the burrito. For a classic breakfast burrito, use traditional "breakfast" meats like sausage, bacon, ham, or chorizo. Feel free to use any other meat (chicken, steak, turkey, etc.) that you have on hand. Cook the meat with the vegetables, unless you are making multiple burritos for both vegetarians and meat-eaters. In this case, keep the ingredients separate. and beans. Rice and beans are optional for a breakfast burrito, although many consider these ingredients to be essential burrito staples. Feel free to add just rice or just beans!  Rice will take more time to cook unless you've prepared it ahead of time. On the other hand, it can be a great carbohydrate filler for your burrito. Beans are easy. Heat up canned black, pinto, or re-fried beans to load some leguminous love into your burrito. You can heat the beans together in the pan with your cooking vegetables, or you can microwave the beans and add them separately. Choose a ripe avocado, peel it, and crush it up into guacamole. Avocado is optional, but it can be a...


Cradle hold the baby while sitting down. Stand up while cradle holding the baby. Consider swaddling the baby before lifting them in the cradle hold. Nurse the baby in the cradle hold position.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Position a comfortable chair nearby and sit down immediately after picking up the baby.  This is a great way to practice getting in and out of position. Sitting down can also be advantageous anytime you want to hold or feed the baby.  A rocking chair or a comfortable armchair will do perfectly. Practicing the cradle hold in a comfy chair will help you gain some confidence. If the baby does start to wriggle out of your grasp, you can use your lap, or a cushion on your lap, to support the baby as you reposition your arms.  Using a chair and your lap for extra support will help free up your dominant hand for other activities. It can be useful when nursing the baby or adjusting their clothing, for instance. Once you're confident in your ability to cradle hold a baby while sitting down, you can try the position while standing up. It can help to use your dominant hand to provide extra support to the baby's midsection and bottom.  Try bending and straightening your knees to bounce the baby as you cradle hold them. Make sure your feet are spread slightly apart to give you enough support.  You can also try adding a side-to-side rocking motion to the cradle hold, to soothe a cranky baby or help them fall asleep. Later you can progress to walking while you hold the baby in the cradle hold position. For exceptionally wiggly or upset babies, you might find it easier to cradle hold the baby after swaddling them in a blanket. Swaddling not only helps to comfort the baby, it also helps you to balance their body more easily since they can't wriggle their arms and legs around. Whether you breastfeed or bottle feed the baby, the cradle hold can be an ideal position for nursing. Especially if you're using your lap and possibly a cushion for extra support, the cradle hold will free up your dominant hand so that you can hold the bottle or help the baby latch onto your breast. When breastfeeding the baby, rotate the baby so their chest faces yours. Tuck their arm beneath their body and use your elbow to lift their head to your breast.


Cradle your baby’s head in both hands to stroke their scalp. Make a heart around the edges of your baby’s face. Stroke your baby’s eyebrows, nose, and cheeks. Massage your baby’s jaw in soft, gentle circles.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Reach underneath your baby’s head and neck to make sure they’re well supported. Use your fingertips to trace very small circles on their scalp. Avoid the soft spot right at the top of their head. Use the tips of your pointer fingers. Start at the crown of your baby’s head and move down to their chin. You can use your pointer fingers for this movement, as well. Be very gentle and move slowly. Consider telling your baby which part of their face you’re touching! Only use your fingertips and apply just a small amount of pressure. You can then trace a circle around their little cheeks.


Craft a Christmas tree ornament with buttons and embroidery floss. Build a snowman with Styrofoam balls, toothpicks, and pipe cleaners. Make snowflakes on wax paper with hot glue, then peel them off. Paint and decorate pinecones to look like Christmas trees. Make a reindeer with a candy cane and craft items.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Cut a long piece of embroidery thread, then slip a needle onto each end. Push each needle through a hole on a stack of small brown buttons. Next, push the needles through a stack of green buttons, starting with the largest and finishing with the smallest. Pull the needles off, then tie the embroidery thread to make a hanging loop.  Plan on using 4 to 5 brown buttons, and around 10 to 12 green buttons. The green buttons don't have to be the same shade. You can use a mixture of light, medium, and dark green buttons. Make the knot about 3 inches (7.6 cm) above the last green button. Cut off the excess embroidery floss. Connect 2 Styrofoam balls (1 large and 1 small) using a drop of hot glue or a toothpick. Coil a pipe cleaner into a cone shape, then hot glue it on top of the smaller ball to make a hat. Slide a piece of thread between the coils on the hat, then tie the ends together to make a hanging loop.  Use a black marker to draw some eyes and a mouth on the smaller ball, and buttons on the larger ball. Cut the tip off of a toothpick, color it with orange markers or acrylic paint, then press it into the middle of the snowman's face to make a nose. Wrap a narrow ribbon around the snowman's neck to make a scarf or bow. Choose Styrofoam balls that have about 1 inch (2.5 cm) difference between them. For example, you can use a 2 in (5.1 cm) ball and a 1 in (2.5 cm) ball. Use a hot glue gun to draw an asterisk shape on a sheet of wax paper. Press a piece of looped string into the top of the snowflake. Add some horizontal, vertical, and V-shaped lines to the asterisk's arms to make it look more like a snowflake. Wait for the glue to set, then peel the snowflake off.  You can use plain hot glue or glittery hot glue. If you can't find glittery hot glue, sprinkle glitter onto the snowflakes before the glue sets. Find a pinecone and clean it with water. Let it dry, then paint it green with acrylic paint. Use hot glue to secure "ornaments," such as sequins, mini pompoms, and large beads. Tie a loop of thread to the top...


Craft a good tagline. Complete your profile in full. Reduce your text, if you need to. Avoid sharing too much. Rewrite your text if you appear too into yourself. Add humor.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A good tagline can sometimes pique the interest of people who may not otherwise match you. By crafting a unique, thoughtful, or interesting tagline, you might lure in people who would otherwise pass you by.  Be honest about who you are and what you like, and include some specific detail that might be interesting. Try to sum up everything in a line: "Outdoors lover, Columbia graduate, writer, and into the finer things in life." Avoid being dishonest. Unless you go sailing a couple of times a month, don’t say that you sail all the time. Don’t use overtly sexual references. By completing your profile in full, you’ll give potential matches the minimum amount of information they need to assess you. At the same time, Tinder may sort incomplete profiles down to the bottom of the swipe list.  People might pass you by if you skip the bio section. Use this as an opportunity to give readers a glimpse into who you are. For example, if you volunteer at animal shelters on the weekend and work as a whitewater rafting guide during the summer, let people know. Make sure to fill in your education qualification. This is important, even if you don’t have a degree from Harvard Business School. It gives people – and Tinder – a sense of your experiences. Just as not having any info in your bio will hurt you, having too much text will also hurt you. By providing too much, you’ll provide potential matches with information that might lead them to move on.  Tinder has a 500-word limit. Try to come in well under that limit. Anywhere between 100 and 300 words is ideal. Only use as many words as you need to describe yourself and give others a sense of who you are. Your description of yourself might be as simple as "I'm an introvert who enjoys the arts, classical music, and the outdoors." Avoid long words or wordy or run-on sentences. While it may be beneficial to provide insight into your personality, you’ll likely lose matches if you share too much information. Ultimately, less is often better when you’re trying to get matches with...

Crank your engine and turn the AC on high cool, high fan. Make sure the compressor clutch is spinning. Set the refrigerant temperature gauge to the ambient temperature. Check the pressure gauge to make sure it’s in the white or green zones. Turn off the vehicle before adding refrigerant.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This allows you to check to make sure your parts are working. It’s okay if your air conditioner is blowing warm or hot air at this time. Your hood should still be up. The compressor clutch looks like a circle. It may spin fast or slow, depending on how well your system is working, as well as how much refrigerant is present in the system. If it’s not spinning, then you can add half a can of refrigerant and check it again. If it’s still not spinning, then you’ll need to take your car in to a professional technician. The gauge will tell you what your refrigerant pressure should be after you complete your recharge. This is your recommended pressure level. As you recharge the air conditioner, you can monitor the pressure on your pressure gauge. It’s okay to round up or down to the nearest 5 degrees. The current pressure level should be below the recommended level you just determined, based on the temperature gauge reading that you took. If it’s above the recommended level or in the red zone, you need to take your car to a technician because something else is wrong. Do not add more refrigerant if the levels aren’t low. This could damage your car. After you finish testing your system, it’s best to turn off your system, unless the directions on your charging kit say otherwise. Always follow the directions on your charging kit to ensure that you get the best possible results.


Crate train dogs. Confine new cats to a safe room, a small room with no places for the cat to crawl into to hide (such as into the refrigerator motor), and no electrical cords.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Use the crates when you are not home and when you're not awake, to prevent new dogs or puppies from chewing on electrical cords. This will also prevent pets from urinating on electrical objects and starting a fire. Use the safe room until the cat is calm and no longer hiding. Provide cats with edible oat or wheat grass, to prevent them from chewing on electrical cords.  Confine rabbits, chinchillas, and other pets when not supervising them, to prevent them from chewing on electrical cords, causing burns or electrical fires. Release them in case of an unforeseen incident.


Cream the butter until it turns light and fluffy. Mix in the lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Beat in the sugar gradually, 1 cup (125 grams) at a time. Add more sugar or lemon juice, if necessary. Use the frosting on cakes, cupcakes, or as a filling in pastries. Enjoy the frosting!

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Put the butter into a mixing bowl, and beat it with a handheld mixer. If you have a food processor with a whisk attachment, use that instead. If you'd like a smoother frosting, omit the lemon zest. If you'd like a less sweet frosting, omit the vanilla extract. Use medium speed, and keep beating until the mixture becomes smooth. From time to time, scrape the sides of the bowl so that everything mixes evenly. If the frosting is too dry, add a little more lemon juice or milk. If the frosting is too wet/runny, add a little more sugar. At this point, you can also add a few drops of yellow food coloring to make your frosting more lemon-colored. If you won't be using the icing for a while, keep it covered with a damp cloth in the fridge, and re-whip it before you spread it. If it is too dry, then add a little more lemon juice or milk.


Cream the cream cheese and butter together. Stir in the vanilla. Mix in the powdered sugar.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

To prepare the filling, add 6 ounces (170 g) of softened cream cheese and 4 tablespoons (57 g) of softened, unsalted butter to a medium bowl. Beat the two together on medium until the mixture is smooth. If you’re using a stand mixer to make the frosting, the paddle attachment usually works best for creaming the cream cheese and butter together. Once the cream cheese and butter are creamed together, add 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vanilla extract to the bowl. Mix it in on medium-low until it is fully incorporated. You’ll get the best flavor if you use pure vanilla extract. After the vanilla is blended in, add 2 cups (250 g) of powdered sugar to the bowl. Beat the sugar in on low until it is fully blended and the filling has a medium consistency that spreads easily but isn’t so thin that it will ooze out of the cake.  If the filling is too thin, you can add more powdered sugar. If the filling is too thick, add ½ to 1 teaspoon (2 ½ to 5 ml) of water to thin it out.


Create Latin vocabulary flashcards. Create a flashcard box. Conduct a practice round with the flashcards. Conduct a memorization round with the flashcards.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Write the Latin vocabulary onto one side of an index card. On the other side, write their English meanings. You can make the flashcards as simple or as fancy as you'd like.  Drawing pictures to illustrate the English meanings can help with memorization. The backs of the flashcards should all look the same. Separate a small box into three sections using cardboard dividers. Put the stack of flashcards into the first section of the box. Cards that you've practiced will be moved to the second section, and those you've mastered will be moved to the third. One by one, take the cards out and read both sides of the card. Say the vocab words and their English definitions aloud. When you’re done reading both sides, place the cards into the second section of the box. Now you're ready for the memorization round. Go through the cards again, this time trying to guess the English definitions of the vocabulary terms. When you correctly state the definition of a term, you can move the card to the third section in the box. If you don't correctly state it, the card gets moved back to the first section.  This will allow you to keep track of the words you know and the words that you still need to work on learning. Repeat twice a day. Revise your cards with new words every month while. If you’re still having difficulty with learning words, keep them in the box and practice reciting them until you’ve learned all of your words.

Create a backstory for your character. Develop your character’s cultural context. Define their relationships with other characters. Determine your character’s role in the plot.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A character’s past might affect their opinions, desires, fears, choices, and actions. Map out a few key events in your character’s life, and think about the way these events might have shaped who they are and how they behave. For example, if your character was once in a bad car accident, they may be afraid of driving or being in cars. Maybe they will need to confront this fear at some point in order to move the story forward. Where your character comes from can also have an impact on their beliefs, goals, and motivations. Think about the kinds of opportunities, challenges, and social pressures your character might experience based on when and where they grew up. Maybe your character is a young woman in 1950s small-town America, for instance. She may feel some tension between the social pressure to get married and start a family, and her own personal desire to go out and achieve something big (like becoming a doctor). In most stories, characters do not act in isolation. They interact with other characters—as love interests, rivals, competitors, teammates, friends, enemies, or sometimes a combination of all of those things! Think about how your character’s personality might affect the way they react to those around them.  For example, if your character is strong-willed and competitive, they might clash with other characters who share those traits—even if they are technically on the same “side.” A shy character might feel intimidated by a character with a more forceful personality. One of their goals in the story might be to overcome their fear and learn to stand up to the more forceful character. In order for your character to have value in your story, they will need to contribute to the plot in some way. The way your character functions in the plot will be at least in part determined by their personality—and vice versa. Think about how your character’s motivations, goals, and actions can help drive the story forward. For example, maybe your character gets into a major argument with his son because of a...


Create a baking soda paste. Mix a salt and vinegar solution. Sprinkle table salt on a lemon. Use ketchup on its own. Try water and mild soap.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A baking soda paste works for most copper jewelry and can be made with materials you likely have around the house. Mix equal parts salt and baking soda with a little lemon juice until you have a paste. Table salt and vinegar is also an easy cleaner to make with supplies you have at home. Simply mix equal parts white vinegar and salt to get a cleaning solution for your copper jewelry. If you have a lemon, this can be rubbed on copper jewelry to clean it. Simply sprinkle table salt on the lemon and then rub down your jewelry with it. If you find you need a deeper clean, add some cornstarch and baking soda to the lemon as well. This will provide a deeper clean. Ketchup tends to work well for on jewelry with a lot of detailing, such as vintage copper jewelry. Ketchup can be squirted directly on your jewelry and then be rubbed in with your fingers or a cloth. A mild soap, such as dish soap, can also be used on copper jewelry. Just make sure you use a small amount. A few drops of a mild soap is all it takes to clean copper jewelry.


Create a balanced relationship with your horse. Do not feed him if he is acting aggressively. Treat your horse like a horse, not a dog.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The relationship with your horse should have an equal amount of love, leadership, and language. Of these three, too much love and too little leadership from you can create a very spoiled horse.  If your horse does not see you as his leader, he likely will not respect you. He is also unlikely to be responsible, since you did not set boundaries for him as his leader. Practice exercises that establish your leadership. Ensure that his needs are taken care of, but do not overindulge him by feeding him a lot of treats or not disciplining him. His diet and training must have boundaries. If you notice that your horse’s ears are back, or if he is being pushy and forceful with you at feeding time, come back to feed him at a later time. If you feed him when he is acting aggressively, you will communicate to him that he is the boss. This will shift the balance of leadership from you to him. Eventually, he will learn that he cannot act any way that he wants at feeding time. This may sound intuitive, but horses and dogs have a fundamentally different view of the world. Horses are prey animals and are motivated by safety and comfort. Dogs are predators and are motivated by attention and food.  When you interact with a horse as if he were a dog—showering him with hugs and attention, for example—you are showing him way too much love and throwing off that part of your relationship with him. With all of this love and attention, your horse will think that you’ve given him free rein to push you around and assert his dominance. You will have much more trouble establishing your leadership if you interact with your horse as if he were a dog.


Create a ball. Let the pot become “leather hard”. Smooth the surface of the pot.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Pull a tennis-ball sized chunk of clay away from your clay supply. Next, roll the chunk between your hands or against your work surface to form a ball. Keep the surface of the ball as smooth as possible. Make sure you don’t create pockets in the surface of the ball by pressing with your fingers. Instead, use your palms to mold the ball. Set the pot in a low-traffic location and cover it with a lightweight hand towel. Let the pot dry for a few hours, checking on it periodically. When the pot is leather hard, it will be cool to the touch and firm like a block of cheese. If the pot starts to look chalky, it is getting too dry. Once the pot is leather hard, you can smooth the surface and add embellishments. Many potters prefer to use their fingers to smooth the surface of the pot, but you can also use specialized pottery tools such as wooden ribs. Additionally, you can even out the lip of the pot by cutting away any uneven areas with a craft knife. Other embellishments can include:  Using your fingers to smooth away any marks or cracks in the surface Using a wooden stick to carve a pattern into the side of the pot Scraping a serrated metal rib against the side of the pot to create a rough texture


Create a base. Cover the base if needed. Choose the layers. Make the pillars to hold the layers. Arrange the pillars and layers. Add the cupcakes.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

For the base, use a flat piece of cardboard, plastic, or a thick cutting board. It can be in any shape - square, circle, or heart-shaped, provided it's solid and pretty. Some stores sell cake bases that could serve as a suitable base for the cupcake stand. These are usually very cheap to buy and come already wrapped in gold or silver foil. Cover the base with wrapping paper, foil or another type of covering to improve its appearance. This step isn't necessary if the base is already in great condition and looks nice. Basically, choose plates and platters that are lightweight and strong. They should ideally decline in size as they go up the stand, so choose something like a dinner plate for the first layer, a side plate for the next layer, a cake plate for the next layer and a saucer for the final layer.  Match the plates or mix them up. If you have plates with pretty patterns, eclectic matching won't matter. Plain white or silver platters are always a safe bet when you want a neutral look. For the top layer, where you place only one layer, an unwanted CD is a clever item to use. You can leave it unwrapped (but do wash it first in warm, soapy water), or cover with paper or fabric. Here is where you get to have quite a bit of artistic license. Choose whatever is strong and likely to look nice. Most importantly, the item must be safe for use around food, it must not take up too much room on the plate, it must be balanced and it must decline in size as it goes up the layers, just like the plates do.  Some great examples of things to use as pillars between the layers include: a glass, cup, eggcup, fabric-covered cleaned out can, vase, sugar bowl, etc. An example of layering could be: First pillar vase, second pillar a glass, third pillar a sugar bowl and final pillar an eggcup. Place the base layer down in the area where it'll stay. This stand won't be moved once made. Add the first pillar. Then carefully balance the next layer. Continue adding pillars and balancing layers. Anytime something seems wobbly or...

Create a blueberry muffin. Make a crumb cake muffin. Bake a carrot muffin.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Blueberry muffins are one of the best kinds of muffins.  Using cake flour to make the blueberry muffins gives them a bit more rise and a lighter flavor.  This recipe makes 12 muffins.  Preheat your oven to 380 degrees Fahrenheit.  Sift 1 teaspoon baking powder, a pinch of salt, and 12.5 ounces of cake flour. In another mixing bowl, mix 1 cup of sugar, ½ a cup of vegetable oil, one egg, and 1 cup of yogurt. Remove 1 tablespoon of the dry ingredients to a small cup or bowl and mix the remainder in with the wet ingredients.  Stir the mixture vigorously for about 10 seconds. Mix 1.5 cups of blueberries with the tablespoon of dry ingredients you set aside previously.  Stir 1 cup of blueberries into the mix for three seconds. Use an ice cream scooper, scoop the dough into a greased muffin pan.  Top each muffin with a few of the remaining blueberries.  Three berries per muffin should be adequate. Place the muffin pan in the oven and raise the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.  Consume with friends. Your muffins will stay good for two to three days in an airtight container. Crumb cake muffins are a sweet treat you can share with friends.  They taste great with a cup of coffee.  And when you use cake flour, the flavor is even better.  Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.  Line the muffin pan with baking cups. Whisk together 1/8 teaspoon of salt, 1/3 cup of brown sugar, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, and ¾ teaspoon of cinnamon. Pour 8 tablespoons of melted butter over the cinnamon mixture and mix together.  Add 1.75 cups of cake flour and mix until the ingredients turn into a thick dough.  Set aside. In a stand mixer bowl with a paddle attachment, combine 1.25 cups of cake flour, ½ a cup of granulated sugar, ¼ teaspoon of baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.  Mix on low speed. Slowly add 6 tablespoons of butter in one-tablespoon increments. Continue mixing for one or two minutes until the mixture looks like wet crumbs. Add 1/3 cup of buttermilk or plain...


Create a braided headband using rope braids. Curl your hair into waves and pin back a few strands for a boho look. Coil your hair into a French twist for an elegant look. Pull your hair back into a messy ponytail. Wrap your hair around an elastic headband to create a chignon.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Create a deep side part, then gather 2 thin strands of hair from the thicker side of the part. Twist the bottom strand over the top strand. Add a thin strand of hair to the new bottom strand, then twist the strands together again. Keep going until you reach your ear, then secure the braid with a bobby pin.  The thin strands should be between the thickness of a pencil and your finger. You can also do this style using a French or Dutch braid. Create loose waves using a medium-sized curling iron. Gather some hair from each temple, and pull it towards the back of your head. Secure the sections of hair with bobby pins.  You can create this style using a center part or a side part. If you are doing a side part, consider pinning back the hair from just the thinner side of the part. Create a deep side part, then pin the hair from the thinner side of the part back behind your head, close to the nape. Gather all of your hair behind your head; spread it vertically between both hands rather than holding it in a fist like a ponytail. Coil the ends of your hair inwards to form a French twist. Secure the French twist with bobby pins.  If your hair is straight, fine, or smooth, add some texturizing spray to it first to make it easier to work with. You will need at least 1 bobby pin on the top and bottom of the French twist. Use more bobby pins wherever you feel a strand coming loose. Use a boar bristle hairbrush to smooth down any stray strands on the sides of your head. Messy buns and ponies are all the rage, and are easiest to create with bob-length hair. Simply pull your hair up into a high ponytail, then secure it with a hair tie. The shorter strands of your hair will naturally slip out of the hair tie and frame your face, creating a chic, messy look. If you prefer a bun, wrap the hair tie 2 to 3 times around your ponytail. Pull your ponytail only halfway through the hair tie on the last wrap. Tuck your hair behind your ears, then slide an elastic headband over your head and hair like a crown. Take a wide section of hair...


Create a budget Save on transportation expenses. Lower your utility bills Reduce spending on entertainment. Save money on food. Cut your insurance bills. Build a buffer in your checking account. Start an emergency fund.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

.  Creating a budget involves taking an honest look at how you’re spending your money compared to how much you earn. It can be scary to total up all of your monthly expenses and to evaluate your total debt. But if your goal is to manage your monthly expenses so that you can become financially stable, then creating a realistic budget is an important first step.  Make a list of all of your bills, including your mortgage or rent, transportation, groceries, child support.  Include debt payments, such as student loans, credit cards and car payment. Figure out your total monthly income.  Include all income that you can use to pay your bills each month.  This would include your paychecks, dividends from stocks, child support payments, gifts and inheritances and deferred compensation from a settlement or retirement plan.  If you are paid hourly, track your salary for a few weeks and calculate the average.  This will give you an average monthly income figure you can use when creating your budget. Subtract your expenses from your income.  This will tell you whether or not you are overspending.  If you are spending more than you earn, then your need to prioritize your expenses. Make a plan to significantly reduce your spending. Reducing how much you spend will leave you with more money at the end of the month that you can use to get out of debt or to build an emergency fund. According to AAA, the annual cost to own and operate a car is over $8,000 per year.  Gas, maintenance, car payments and insurance contribute to this figure.  Put some of this money back in your pocket by selling your car and using public transportation.  If you really need a car to get somewhere, use a rideshare service like Uber.  If you don’t want to sell your vehicle, reduce how often you drive it by carpooling. .  The average household spends approximately $2,200 per year on utilities.  Most of this is on heating and cooling.  Find ways to improve the energy efficiency of your home to reduce utility costs.  Replace incandescent light bulbs with...


Create a budget. Cancel an unused gym membership. Cut your cable. Find a cheaper phone plan. Learn how to do things yourself. Consider downsizing. Pay down your debts. Limit the money you spend on fun. Pay your bills immediately. Carry only one credit card.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Sit down and crunch the following numbers:  Income. What do you bring in every month? Count your paycheck, as well as any retirement benefits, unemployment benefits, disability payments, child support, etc. that your spouse brings in. Add it all up. Fixed expenses. These are bills that cost the same amount every month: rent or mortgage, health insurance, car payment, etc. Total the amount. Discretionary spending. This is everything else you spend money on: groceries, entertainment, etc. The amount you spend will fluctuate from month to month. Ask yourself whether you are really using your gym membership. If you only go a couple times a month, then you can easily cancel and find cheaper ways to stay in shape.  Go running outside in the spring or summer, or join a walking club in your neighborhood.  Play tennis, basketball, or volleyball at public courts. Check how much it costs to join a community recreation center. Typically, it is much cheaper than to join a private gym.

Create a buffer between soil and your garden. Spread corn gluten meal in your plants or on your lawn. Pour boiling water on any weeds or patches of weeds you see in your grass. Spray a combination of vinegar and water on patches of leaves. Mix 1 oz.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This can be done with newspaper or an old shower curtain. Lay the paper or curtain down on the grown and cover it with mulch, pebbles or dirt and plant your flowers. Weeds will be unable to take root or move past the buffer. Corn gluten meal prevents germination of weed seeds but it will not bother your established plants. Best used in early spring. This is especially useful on weeds you notice in your driveway or walkway, because the water will have an easy time running off without bothering your plants or grass. Do not do this too close to plants or flowers, or cover them up before you spray. Vinegar will kill good growth as well as weeds. (28.34 g) of vodka with 2 cups (473 ml) of water and add a drop of dish soap. Spray this mixture on the weeds and watch them dry up.


Create a buffer. Recognize accidents. Appreciate other cultures. Consider the environment. Ignore the issue. Document the interaction. Be cognizant of your status.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Use your natural office environment to separate yourself from someone else.  Be sure to use natural cubicle dividers and desks to get more room.  Stand nearer to larger objects like water coolers so there is less angle to approach you. If you feel the personal space violation was due to clumsiness or a simple mistake, simply dismiss the situation.  It’s far too easy to become defensive about a situation that was completely incidental or unintentional. If there is a diverse environment at your office, it’s likely some people find touching to be a valid form of expression, a means of connection and communication. It is probably how they talk to their friends and family. If it's not inappropriate (a tap on the shoulder, a pat on the back) and if it's not bothering you, you may choose to accept their invasion of your space. If you are forced into a closely grouped situation, realize its innocuous nature.  Places like elevators and group meetings often result in people being within closer proximity to one another. Unless the touch is inappropriate, it may be best to chalk it up to harmless interaction.  Don't turn around or react to the infringement of your personal space.  Do not stop what you are doing.  Maintain your focus and pretend that nothing happened.  If it persists, you may need to redirect to a different method. If you feel there was a violation of your personal space, particularly if you were touched, it may be necessary to elevate the issue.  When you feel it is necessary, bring it up to your manager or speak to Human Resources.  Bring your documentation, and let them deal with the person. Consider the office environment – a supervisor can walk right into a subordinate’s office, but the respect is not always reciprocal.  Some workplace situations can’t be controlled, and the more senior the person invading your personal space, the less likely you’ll be able to control the situation.


Create a business plan. Define your customer base. Study trends. Figure out your core values. Research your competition. Innovation is everything.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In a business plan, you detail every aspect of your business, from a line-item budget to your company's plan for obtaining customers and its marketing.  Periodically revisit your business plan because it is where you will outline your company's strategies.   Measure everything. You have to keep detailed track of everything in your company, from how much the utilities cost, to labor time, to sales leads. Use spreadsheets to organize your information. The core step of any business plan is a break-even analysis. This means you want to study such things as your cash flow. You estimate expenses and revenue, and include such things as overhead and sales revenue. Then you calculate your break-even point.  How much money will you need to bring in as profit each month to break even? If your break-even point is too high, you might need to make changes in pricing or staff. Analyze your product from the perspective of the target customer and what he or she needs and wants, not what you like. Understand who your customer base will be specifically - geographically, demographically.  Analyze who has already bought from you if you've sold the product before. Otherwise, consider who would be most likely to buy your product.   Figure out your revenue model. This will help you define your target market. For example, if your revenue model is to sell your product entirely online, this will help you narrow the customer base to those most likely to purchase online products. Determine the customer base of your competition. However, don't necessarily go after the exact same base. Is there a niche market they are missing?   Narrow your customer base by demographics (like age, gender and ethnicity), geography, income level, and personality. Do your homework so you can identify new products or trends. You don't want to sell something that already has waning popularity. Some trends involve how people communicate. Steve Jobs at Apple was a genius at this; he revolutionized how people download and listen to music, for example.   Look for...
