Locate the closest airports to the park. Research flight prices to find the best deal. Purchase your ticket(s).

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

There are two main options that should accommodate most visitors to Channel Islands National Park:   Los Angeles International Airport is easily the most convenient option for the majority of travelers. With thousands of incoming and outgoing flights per day, it is one of the busiest airports in the world and provides regular service to every major North American city—though not all flights will be direct.  Santa Barbara Airport is a much smaller airport, but is closer to the park. Flying to Santa Barbara from outside California will almost always require a transfer. Check every website that offers discount fares to see if one might be holding a sale to your destination city. If you’re willing to deal with one or even two transfers, you should be able to save some money over opting for a direct flight. Bear in mind that you will save money by purchasing non-refundable tickets over refundable ducats, but that you could be left with nothing if you cannot make the flight. Most tickets can be changed for a pre-determined fee.


Locate the company's net earning or net income from the previous year. Figure out how many shares are outstanding. Divide the net income by the number of shares outstanding.

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

This information can be found on most financial webpages, or on the company's website. Using the company's net earnings or income as the primary number in the calculation is the most basic way of determining EPS.  For example, say you want to calculate the EPS of Microsoft based on its net income. A quick browse of Microsoft's website tells you that in 2012, the company's net income was almost $17 billion. Be careful not to mistake a company's quarterly net income with their annual net income. Quarterly profit is calculated every three months, whereas annual profit is calculated every 12 months. Mistaking a company's quarterly net income for their annual net income will cause your calculation to be roughly four times smaller. How many total shares does a company have on the stock exchange? This information can be collected by visiting a financial website and locating the company's information. Again, let's continue with the example of Microsoft. As of the time of writing, Microsoft has 8.33 billion shares outstanding. Taking Microsoft's vitals as our example, we'd divide $17 billion by 8.33 billion and come away with a basic EPS of 2. Take another basic example. Let's say a bocce ball company has a net income of $4 million and 575,000 shares outstanding. We divide $4 million by 575,000 and come up with an EPS of 6.95.


Locate the confirmation number for your request. Visit your local post office in person. Call your local post office if you're still out of town. Write a letter of permission if you want someone else to pick up your mail.

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

If you want to have your hold period end earlier or want to cancel it entirely, you'll have to provide your confirmation number. This is true regardless of whether you're changing your request online or in person. If you cannot find your confirmation number, you won't be able to change your Hold Mail request online at all. USPS agents at your local post office can edit or cancel your Hold Mail request provided you have your confirmation number and a valid form of identification. It may take up to 1 day for any change you've requested to take effect.  Acceptable forms of primary identification include any government-issued photo ID, such as a state ID card, driver's license, university ID, or passport. In addition to your primary identification, bring a document to prove your address, such as a copy of your lease or mortgage, your voter or vehicle registration card, or a utility bill addressed to you at your address. If you find that you're going to be out of town longer than you thought when you submitted your original request, you can extend your request with a phone call. You do not need your confirmation number to extend your request. However, it's generally better if you have it.  You can also extend your request online through your USPS account, provided you have your confirmation number. To get the phone number for your local post office, go to https://tools.usps.com/find-location.htm? and enter your city and state or ZIP code.

Simply write "I authorize [First Name Last Name] to pick up my accumulated mail." Print your name under your signature and provide your address. You might also include your phone number just in case a USPS agent wants to...


Locate the correct, corresponding area. Use thumb-walking techniques. Use a rotating motion. Apply pressure after rotating. Integrate the different techniques. Press firmly without causing any pain. Stimulate the zones on both hands. Relax and drink plenty of water after your session.

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

Use a reflexology chart or Part One to find the zone that corresponds to the area of your body on which you want to work. Or you can simply work the entire hands, which reflexologists believe helps to promote overall wellness.  For instance, if you suffer from a sinus headache, then you would work on your fingers between the fingertips and the first knuckles since this zone represents the head and sinuses. This area may also help relieve symptoms of sinusitis, although no proven evidence exists.  As another example, if you’re suffering from constipation, you would apply the techniques to the zones corresponding to your intestines, which is at the bottom of the palms straight down from your middle fingers. Place your fully extended thumb on the area you want to focus on. Slide the thumb back slowly while flexing the first thumb knuckle upward. Moving slowly and steadily move the thumb knuckle up and down, walking it over the reflex point. Rest your thumb on the area you wish to manipulate. Maintain a steady touch and rotate your thumb in a circle on the area while slowly increasing pressure. After performing a rotating motion, holding your thumb on the reflex point with medium pressure increases relaxation. Hold for a count of three. If you have chest congestion, for instance, you would isolate the correct zone on each hand (the top of the palm just below the last set of finger knuckles). Then you can use a thumb-walking technique across the zone. Finally, apply the rotating technique to smaller sections of the zone with a hold on the section before moving to the next. As you increase pressure on portions of the hands, you should apply as much pressure as you can without causing yourself (or the person on whom you’re applying reflexology) any pain. The firm pressure will ensure that you trigger the reflex, but the action should never cause pain or discomfort. Reflexologists believe that it is important to stimulate the corresponding zones on both hands when applying the techniques. For instance, do not work...


Locate the crown on your analog expedition watch. Set your watch to the correct time. Set the date and day on your watch.

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

To set the time and date of your analog expedition watch you will first need to locate the crown.  The crown will appear as a small circular disc on the edge of your watch.  You will be pulling this disc out and away from the body of the watch to set both the time and date.  Pulling the crown all the way out will allow you to adjust the time. Pulling the crown half way out to the middle position will allow you to adjust the date. Pushing the crown back in will restart the watch, starting from the time and date you have set it to. Once you've located the crown you can use it to adjust the time.  Using the crown to adjust the time is a simple process that involves pulling it out fully and twisting it until the hands of the watch are at the right time.  Follow these steps to set your watch using the crown:  Pull the crown out to its outer position, pulling as far as it will extend. Once extended you can twist the crown to adjust where the arms of the watch are positioned. Twist the crown until the arms are set to the right time. Push the crown back down into the watch to start it up once again. To set the date and day on your watch you will need to first find the crown.  The crown will need to be pulled out and away from the watch and then twisted until the correct date is shown.  Follow these few steps to use the crown when setting the date:  Find the crown and pull it out of the watch to the middle position.  This will be half of its length. Turn the crown clockwise until you see the correct date. If the date isn't changing, pull the crown to the outer position and turn ahead by 24 hours. Put the crown back into its neutral position, fully pressed down into the watch.


Locate the designated jack points for the vehicle. Close the valve on the jack. Place the jack beneath the appropriate jack point. Use the jack to lift the vehicle. Only jack the car up as high as necessary.

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

Each vehicle has specific points on the frame that are designed to withstand the weight of jacking up the vehicle.  These jack points are not always easily identified, so refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to help you find them if you are having difficulty.  There are usually jack points on the frame of your car to the inside of each wheel, and at a center point on the front and back of the car. Jacking the car up at a point that is not designed for it can cause damage to the frame of the vehicle. Trolley jacks utilize hydraulics to lift your vehicle off of the ground.  When the hydraulic valve is open, the jack can’t create pressure on the piston to lift the car.  Use the handle of the jack to turn the valve clockwise until it is completely closed.  Re-insert the handle into the jack once done if you used the handle to close the valve.   Different jacks may place the valve in different places, but it is often a different color than the rest of the jack or is left unpainted completely. If you are using a scissor jack, there is no valve you need to close. Slide your jack beneath the jack point closest to the wheel you intend to remove so the cup of the jack is sitting just beneath the frame.  You may need to raise the cup of the jack slightly by lifting the jack handle and pressing it back down or spinning it once to make sure the jack is positioned properly.  The cup on the jack should be centered on the designated jack point for the vehicle. There are teeth or ridges on the cup of the jack to help prevent the car’s frame from sliding as it’s jacked up. Depending on the type of jack you are using, you will need to either raise and lower the handle (on a trolley jack) or turn it (on a scissor jack) to raise the vehicle.  Start slow, paying close attention to the frame around the jack point to look for signs of bending or crimping of the metal. If you see signs that the metal is bending, lower the car and reposition the jack unto the jack point properly. Raising a vehicle up too high can increase the danger...


Locate the distributor. Find the timing specifications for your vehicle. Disconnect the distributor cap. Remove all wires attached to the distributor. Mark the engine mounting point. Mark the position of the rotor. Remove the old distributor.

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

Park the vehicle in a safe, secure place (like a garage or a level stretch of ground) and open the hood to access the engine compartment. Look for the distributor - often, this is a cylindrical part with thick wires coming out of it that sits near the engine. Most distributors are located above ordinary V6 and V8 engines and to one side of inline I4 and I6 engines. The distributor has a plastic cap with spark plug wires coming out of it. There will be one wire for each cylinder of the engine. There will also be one additional wire connected to the ignition coil. Replacing the distributor requires you to use a timing light to set the timing of the engine after the new distributor is installed. To do this, you'll need to use the timing specifications unique to your vehicle. Often, these are on a sticker under the hood or in the engine compartment. You may also be able to find these in your vehicle's manual or online. If you can't find the timing specifications for your vehicle, don't attempt to install a new distributor. In this case, it's much safer and easier to simply bring your vehicle to a qualified mechanic. As noted above, most distributors have a plastic cap from which the ignition wires emerge. To begin removing the distributor, remove this cap. This may or may not require basic tools - some caps have clamps that can be loosened by hand, while others may require screwdrivers or even socket wrenches to unscrew screws and/or bolts holding the cap in place. Before disconnecting each wire, mark it so that you'll be able to reconnect it in the same place in the new distributor. Electrical tape works well for this purpose - use the tape to give each wire a "tag" and, if you'd like, make notes on the tag with a marker. As when working with any sort of electrical system, you'll want to use a healthy amount of common sense. Never tamper with a vehicle's electrical wires while the vehicle is running or any electrical current is flowing through the engine compartment. To make it a little easier to install the new...


Locate the drain valve on the radiator. Place a bucket beneath the radiator and open the valve. Close the drain valve and open the radiator pressure cap. Replace the radiator cap if necessary. Fill the radiator with water. Pour the drained coolant into sealable containers.

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

Your radiator is located at the front of the engine bay, just behind the grill of the car.  There will likely be one or two fans mounted on the front facing side of the radiator, with plastic or metal end tanks on either side of the aluminum body.  The drain valve on your radiator is usually located on the driver’s side, near the bottom, on one of the end tanks.  Depending on the make and model of the vehicle, there may be a plug in the drain valve called a “drain cock.” If you have difficulty locating the drain valve or cock, check in your owner’s manual. Make sure you have a bucket that is large enough to hold all of the fluid that will be drained from the radiator, and place it beneath the drain valve.  Open the drain valve or remove the drain cock and allow the coolant to drain into the bucket.  Be careful, even if the radiator is only warm to the touch, the coolant pouring out may still be quite hot. Ensure you do not allow the coolant to drain onto the ground or into a drain.  Coolant must be disposed of properly in order to protect the environment and adhere to the law. Once the radiator is drained, close the valve or replace the drain cock.  Then open the radiator cap or the radiator pressure cap (depending on the vehicle).  You can locate the cap by checking in the owner’s manual, or simply follow the piping that leads from the radiator to the engine.  If there is a cap along the line, use that, or it may lead to a coolant reservoir with a cap on top.  Once you locate the appropriate cap, open it and look inside; the level of fluid should be quite low after draining the radiator.  Make sure to close the drain valve tightly so fluid will not leak out when you pour more in. The coolant pressure cap will often be marked with warnings like, “Do not open when engine is hot.” If you can hear coolant boiling despite the car’s temperature gauge indicating a normal temperature or if you notice bubbling coolant leaking from beneath the radiator cap, you will likely need to replace it.  Doing so will require...


Locate the emergency exits. Keep your money and valuables in a safe place. Be aware of the people around you. Drink water throughout the show. Limit your alcohol intake. Wear earplugs. Take breaks when necessary. Enjoy the concert!

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

Be sure you have a mental plan for how to leave the floor as quickly as possible in case of an emergency. If you're worried about your ability to enter or exit, consider choosing a spot on the floor closer to the exits. Packed crowds on the general admission floor are often prone to theft and pick-pocketing. Avoid getting targeted by keeping your money hidden and concealed at all times while you're on the floor. Keep your money in a small bag, purse, or fanny pack with zippered openings, and keep your bag on the front side of your body where you'll be able to keep an eye on it. Especially if you’re standing in or near a mosh pit, be aware of the people around you to avoid taking a stray fist or elbow to the face. Similarly, if you enjoy thrashing around at the height of a concert, take note of the bodies around you to avoid hurting anyone.  Watch out for crowd-surfers to avoid getting kicked in the head. Avoid violence at all costs. If someone pushes or shoves you, keep a cool head and assume it was an accident. If you accidentally shove into a person, be courteous and apologize. Nothing will stunt your fun on the floor like a bout of dehydration. You’ll be sweating a lot, so you'll need to replenish those fluids in order to keep having fun. Be sure to buy water bottles or bring your own onto the floor, and drink up in between songs and sets. If you're consuming alcohol at the event, be sure drink in moderation. Getting drunk will put you at a greater risk of getting injured in the tussle of the crowd, so it's best to stick to 1-2 alcoholic beverages. Because standing room on the general admission floor tends to be close to the main speaker systems at concert venues, it's extremely important to protect your hearing while you're on the floor. Even if you're young and believe your eardrums are invincible, it's best to wear earplugs to be safe. If you get hurt, feel claustrophobic, or need a breather from all the action, exit the floor and take a break from the concert. The floor can get rowdy, and if you’re...


Locate the form(s). Fill in the form. File your form and pay the fees.

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

Most jurisdictions that provide for domestic partnerships only require a form for registering it. Contact the clerk of courts in your county or the county recorder to get the blank form. You will need to complete the form. This form will likely include:  A sworn statement that the partners qualify under the law. Documents that prove these statements You will probably be required to sign it in front of a notary. Your form will likely be filed at the same office in which you obtained the form. Most jurisdictions require you pay a registration or filing fee at the time of registering your domestic partnership.


Locate the given line and the given point. Draw a line through the given point and any point on the given line. Prepare the compass. Draw the first angle. Draw an arc. Prepare the compass. Draw the corresponding angle. Draw a line through the given point and the point created by the two intersecting arcs.

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

The point will not be on the given line, and can be above or below it.  If the line and point are not already labeled, you might want to label them to easily keep track of the steps. For example, you might have line m{\displaystyle m} and point A{\displaystyle A}. This is the transverse line you will use to draw two corresponding angles, which will help you form the parallel line.  Ensure that the transverse line extends well beyond the given point. For example, you might draw a line through point A{\displaystyle A} that intersects line m{\displaystyle m} at point B{\displaystyle B}. The new line segment would be AB{\displaystyle AB}. Set the compass to a width that is less than half of the line segment you constructed.  The exact width of the compass does not matter, as long as it is less than half the width of the line segment. For example, you should set the width of the compass so that it is less than half the width of line segment AB{\displaystyle AB}. Place the tip of the compass on the point where the transverse line intersects the given line. Draw an arc that intersects the transverse line and the given line. Do not change the width of the compass. For example, you should set the compass at point B{\displaystyle B} and draw an arc that intersects line segment AB{\displaystyle AB} at point C{\displaystyle C} and line m{\displaystyle m} at point D{\displaystyle D}. This creates the angle CBD{\displaystyle CBD}. Using the same compass width, place the tip of the compass on the given point. Draw an arc that intersects the transverse line above the given point, extending to just below the given point. For example, you should set the compass at point A{\displaystyle A} and draw an arc that intersects the transverse line above point A{\displaystyle A} at point P{\displaystyle P}. Set the width of the compass to the width of the first angle you created. For example, the first angle you created was CBD{\displaystyle CBD}, so set the tip of your compass on point D{\displaystyle D} extend it to point...


Locate the headlight controls. Look at the “off” position. Turn the switch to the correct symbol. Consider checking the results. Know when to use your headlights.

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

Headlight controls are not located in the same place in each vehicle, but there are a few spots that are commonly used. Look for either a control panel or a control arm near the steering wheel.  Some manufacturers place a separate headlight control panel just beneath the dashboard, just to the driver's left side. These panels are especially common in larger vehicles with a greater amount of dashboard space. Look for a small panel with a dial on it. The standard headlight indicator symbols should be positioned at various intervals around the dial. Other manufacturers place the headlight controls on a control arm attached to the base of the steering wheel. The arm can be positioned to the left or right of the steering wheel, and a headlight control dial will be located toward the end of the arm. This headlight control dial will be marked with the standard headlight indicator symbols. By default, the headlight controls will be switched to an “off” position. Note which symbol marks that position and where it lies along the dial so that you can turn the headlights off when you are finished.  The “off” position is usually located to the far left or underside of the dial. It is typically marked by an open or empty circle. Nowadays, many vehicles are equipped with “running lights” that automatically come on when your vehicle is on and your headlights are off. If your headlights appear to be off but you still see lights shining from the front of your vehicle, those lights are probably running lights.  Always make sure that the headlights are off when you turn off your car. Keeping the headlights on while the vehicle is off can drain the automobile's battery, and the car will not turn on later if the battery is drained dry. If you forget and do completely drain the battery, you will need to jump start your car to get it going again. Grab the control dial between your thumb and index finger and rotate it until it reaches the appropriate setting. The different settings are indicated by separate symbols, and you should...


Locate the heater core on the vehicle’s firewall. Disconnect the heater hoses. Point the inlet hose down toward the container. Insert an airline or water hose into the outlet hose. Seal the line.

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

The heater core inlet and outlet pipes are usually located on the firewall separating the engine from the cabin of the vehicle.  Its location will vary from vehicle to vehicle so if you have difficulty locating the inlet and outlet hoses, refer to the service manual for your specific vehicle.  There will be two nozzles, one for the flow of coolant in and the other for the flow of coolant out. You can locate the nozzles by following the coolant hoses through the coolant system. Most coolant hoses are attached using hose clamps that will need to be loosened with either a screw driver or wrench.  Remember, when you disconnect the heater hoses, coolant and water will pour from them, so be sure the container is placed directly beneath the hoses below the car.  If you damage the hose clamp as you loosen it, you can purchase replacement clamps at your local auto parts store. Be careful not to spill coolant on the ground, as it is bad for the environment. In order to clean the blockage out of the heater core, you will need to force either air or water through the system.  As you do so, the coolant, water and grime within the system will be expelled through the inlet hose. Be sure the hose is positioned so anything that comes out of it will pour into the container. If you have an air compressor, you can use an airline to push out the remaining coolant and grime within the heater core.  If not, you can use a garden hose for the same purposes.  Place the airline or hose in the outlet hose from the heater core. You will need to use a water hose to flush the system either way, but compressed air may move harder to break blockages. Try your best to seal the line where the hose or airline connect the to the heater hose outlet.  Wrapping the area with duct tape or using silicone couplers are both effective ways to create a seal.  If there is a serious blockage in the line, pressure may leak back out the hose rather than penetrating the clog. A good seal around the hose pushing air or water into the system will force the...


Locate the insect. Find an object to exterminate the pest. Hit the insect. Clean up insect remains.

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

Some bugs stay out in the open and are easy to find. Others, like cockroaches, are nocturnal and prefer dark and enclosed areas. If you know what type of bug you are trying to eliminate, research it to find out where it may be living in your house. A good place to start your search is in the kitchen, as many bugs are attracted to the smell of food. Because bugs are attracted to the smell of food, do your best to keep food out of any living areas for extended periods of time. Once you have found the bug, you need a tool with which to hit it and kill it. For most bugs, a newspaper, a piece of cardboard, a paper-back book or a regular fly swatter are good tools to use. Roll it up or position it in your hand so it is comfortable. Raise it about a foot above the insect. Alternatively, if the insect is on the ground you can stamp on it with your foot. Make sure that you are wearing shoes, preferably with a solid sole. Approach the insect and use the newspaper or fly swatter to hit the insect directly and with force. If using your foot, target the insect and stamp on it with the middle part of your shoe. It is important to move quickly and not to hesitate. Many insects like flies are extremely aware of their surroundings, and when they notice a threat they move immediately. Therefore, it's very important to do it quickly! You may want to clean up the insect remains after you are done. Using something disposable like a napkin or paper towel to clean up the insect is a great way of getting rid of it for good! After disposing of the insect, wipe down the surface you picked it up from using an all-purpose cleaner or a product like Clorox to ensure a complete clean.


Locate the limb bolts. Loosen the limb locking screws. Tighten or loosen the limb bolts to the desired weight. Test the bow’s pull.

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

Look for the limb bolts near the center of your compound bow. The limb bolts lie in large circular knobs that attach the bow’s arms to the riser. These bolts must be manipulated to tweak the draw weight, or the amount of tension that is placed on the bow string as it is pulled. The riser is the central part of the bow that connects to the limbs and other mechanical components. Certain compound bow models use a second set of bolts or screws to hold the limb bolts in place once they’re in the right position. These can usually be found on either side of the limb bolts. They can sometimes be undone with the same Allen wrench you’ll use to adjust the limb bolts, or they may require a separate screwdriver. Loosen the locking screws to allow the limb bolts to be adjusted. Insert the short arm of an Allen wrench (most commonly a 3/16 size, usually included with the bow) into the bolt and make sure it is properly slotted. Then, turn the wrench either clockwise to tighten the bolt or counterclockwise to loosen it. Adjust the tension of each arm of the bow to the preferred weight. Do this for both limb bolts, turning each bolt the same amount.  Tighten or loosen the limb bolts one full rotation at a time. This will help you keep track of the level of tension in each of the limbs.  On most compound bows, one rotation of the limb bolt translates to roughly a pound and a half of weight. Remember to adjust the tension equally on both limbs. Secure the limb locking screws if your bow has them. Hold the bow as you ordinarily would and pull back the bowstring to test the draw weight. If you’re satisfied with how it feels, you’re done. If not, continue tinkering with the draw weight until you get it how you want it. You should be able to draw the bow in one smooth, controlled motion.


Locate the long bones. Remove the long bones. Locate and remove the wishbone. Clean up the breasts. Store your turkey. Clean up. Use your turkey if you're ready to cook it.

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

There are two long bones (one on each side) that run the length of the breast. Find the two long bones, and use both hands to bend the bones backwards, loosening them. Use the knife to work your way around the bones and cartilage of the long bones. Work carefully to remove meat and cartilage until the bone is free. Repeat on the opposite side. Save as much meat as possible. The wishbone is a thin, V-shaped bone found right between the neck and the breast. By now, your wishbone should be loose enough to simply wiggle out. If needed, use your knife to free up any meat holding the wishbone in place, and remove it. Remove the white tendon, as well as any loose connective tissue from the turkey breast. If desired, cut the turkey breasts into two halves. Using a sharp knife (your boning knife, or a more standard kitchen knife), slice down the center of the turkey breast longways. This will give you smaller servings to store and prepare. Cover your raw turkey meat with plastic wrap, place it in a plastic bag, or seal it in another air-tight container. Your uncooked turkey will be OK in your refrigerator for 2-3 days. If you do not plan to use it in that time, it is best to place your air-tight container in the freezer, where it will last for several weeks. When you are ready to use it, thaw your turkey in the fridge overnight. When you have finished, be sure to thoroughly cleanse your hands, your instruments, and your kitchen area. Whenever you work with raw poultry, be sure to use hot soapy water to disinfect everything. Once your turkey is deboned, you may be ready to cook it. Make sure you cook it thoroughly so that you don't risk food poisoning.


Locate the main water supply. Turn off the main water supply. Shut off secondary supply valves. Inspect the supply lines. Treat the sump pump. Disconnect watering implements from your outdoor spigot. Treat the exterior spigot. Call a plumber.

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

This consists of two parts. You should find one part near the meter on the street side of your house. The location of the second part depends on where you live. If you live in a warm climate, look on an outside wall or in an underground box. If you’re in a colder climate, look in the basement. First, open all faucets in the house. Then, shut down both parts of the valve. Make sure that the water flow coming from the faucets stops after a few minutes. If it doesn’t, re-check both parts of the valve and tighten them as best as you can. Call a plumber if you can’t shut off the valve or if any part of the valve breaks. If you receive well water, turn off its electrical switch to prevent the well from pumping water inside. Take this step if you have automatic outdoor watering systems that prevent you from shutting off the main water supply. Look for round or oval handles. Turn the handles clockwise (“righty tighty”) to close the valves. Shut off valves to appliances involved in significant drainage. These include:  The dishwasher The washing machine The ice maker on the refrigerator Look for this valve either under the sink or in the basement. Look for leaks, rust, cracks, and other evidence of damage. If any areas are damaged, replace them with hoses coated in braided stainless steel. These are more durable than rubber hoses. Call a plumber if you need assistance. Add a battery backup to the pump in the event of a power failure. Pour water into the pit. It should drain the water by itself. If it doesn’t, make sure the pump is plugged in and the breaker is switched on. If it’s still not working:  Make sure the motor is running normally. Check the pipe for evidence of freezing or clogging. Clean the discharge line. Call a plumber if all else fails. This includes the hose and the sprinkler. Disconnect everything in the winter or before the temperature in your area drops below freezing. The water inside the hose can freeze and back up into the spigot until it reaches your pipes. Any pipe that freezes can burst.  You...


Locate the nearest office for the birth state's Division of Vital Records. Present your identification. Fill out the request form. Pay the required fee. Wait for your new birth certificate to arrive.

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

You can locate the address online through the CDC website or through a phone book.  If you do not have access to a phone book or consistent access to the internet, you can contact the city government and ask for the necessary contact information. Offices for a state's Division of Vital Records are usually scattered throughout the state, but you may have to visit the nearest big city in your state to find one. Worst case scenario, you will need to pay a visit to the state capital. Check with the state's requirements concerning acceptable identification. Make sure that you have all the required identification on hand when you visit the office. Otherwise, your request may be denied. The office should have vital records request forms on hand, including an application for birth certificate copies. Fill out the form in the office in plain sight of an office worker.  Fill out the form completely and truthfully. If you do not know all of the information requested on the form, the office may still be willing to perform the search. Note, however, that searches with incomplete information may take longer and may not be successful. Pay the fee by check or money order.  Many states will also accept major credit cards. Some states will not accept cash. The processing time can vary by state, but you can usually expect to receive the certificate in the mail within 10 to 12 weeks.  Expedited requests may take as little as two weeks.


Locate the quick. Clip the tip of each nail. Minimize restraint.

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

There is a vein located inside each nail known as the quick. If you trim into the quick, this will cause your rabbit to bleed excessively. Make sure you locate the quick before you begin to trim a nail.  The quick should be visible to the naked eye if your rabbit has clear claws. It will be a thin pink or red line just inside the nail. If your rabbit has darker paws, try shining a flashlight under the nail. This may make the quick more visible. You want to keep a safe distance from the quick as you clip your rabbit's nails. You only need to clip the sharp tip of the nail. Never clip into the quick. Work with one nail at a time to assure precision. If your rabbit is particularly nervous, you may have to ask a friend to help. One person can hold and soothe the rabbit, while the other person clips the rabbit's nails. Rabbits dislike being restrained. Try to  avoid holding your rabbit too tightly as you clip its nails. Keep the rabbit seated in your lap and pull it gently against your stomach. If you use too much force to keep your rabbit still, it will become agitated. If your rabbit is squirming too much, it's better to take a break and try again later than to restrain the rabbit too forcefully.


Locate the rear differential. Find the fill/service port on the differential. Clean the area around the service port. Open the fill/service port. Check the fluid level with your finger.

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

Only vehicles that are powered by their rear wheels or all four wheels will have a rear differential.  You can locate it by following the drive shaft that travels the length of the car, from the transmission to the rear differential, or by looking for the pumpkin shaped metal object mounted between the rear wheels.  The rear differential is easy to identify, as it connects the transmission to the wheels. Because of its vaguely pumpkin-like shape, rear differentials are often referred to as a car's “rear pumpkin.” Once you find the differential, visually inspect it for signs of damage and to locate the drain and filler plugs.  The drain plug is located on or near the bottom of the differential while the filler/service plug will be on the side and closer to the top.  If the rear differential has been damaged, it will require service from a professional. The fill/service plug is usually not a traditional looking bolt, but rather has an opening for a 3/8 inch drive ratchet. When you open the fill/service port to check the fluid levels, dirt and debris surrounding the port could fall into it, potentially causing damage to the gears inside.  To prevent this, clean the area surrounding the service port with brake cleaner and a steel bristled brush.  The brake cleaner will evaporate quickly, leaving a dry surface. Use the brush to remove large deposits of stuck on dirt. Insert a 3/8 inch drive ratchet (without a socket) into the hole in the service port and turn it counter clockwise (left) to loosen it.  It may require a fair amount of force to loosen, as some of the road grime may have caked into the gap between the plug and the differential.  In some applications, the plug may be a bolt.  In these cases, find the appropriate sized socket to remove the bolt. Be extremely careful not to strip the bolt.  Be sure to use the correct size socket. The gear oil in the rear differential should reach the bottom of the service port hole.  Insert one finger into the open service port.  Bend your finger downward slightly to see...


Locate the right doctor for you. Schedule a consultation with dentist candidates. Plan visits for procedures gradually. If you’re uncomfortable with anything, talk to your dentist about stopping the procedure to help you calm down.

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

Your dentist can set the tone for your entire visit. If she isn’t warm and inviting and tends to be Clinical, this can exacerbate any fears you might have. Finding the right doctor can significantly help you to overcome your fear of the dentist.  The best way to find a good doctor for you is to ask friends and family members. Other people aren’t likely to recommend a dentist with whom they don’t feel comfortable. You can also read reviews of dentists online or in local publications such as newspapers or magazines. Make an appointment with potential dentists to help you find the right one. Meeting and discussing your health and fears with candidates can help you feel comfortable with a specific person who can handle your dentistry concerns.  Ask dentist candidates questions and discuss your fears. Having your specific list of fears handy will help to make sure that you don’t forget anything. Make sure the dentists take you and your fears seriously. Don’t accept anyone who brushes you off, which can reinforce your fears and may indicate someone who isn’t gentle or sympathetic. Once you’ve found a dentist who makes you feel comfortable, set up a series of visits. Start with simple procedures such as teeth cleaning and move to more serious procedures such as root canals or crown fillings as you are able. This will help you build up a trusting relationship with your dentist. The more often you visit the dentist and have positive experiences, the more likely you are to maintain your oral health and get over your dental phobia.  Set up appointments at times that you are less likely to have to wait for a long time in the waiting area. Being the first patient in the morning is a good tactic.


Locate the serial number. Bring the lock to a distributor or retailer of the brand. Submit a lost combination form directly to the manufacturers. Consult the owner.

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

If your lock has a number stamped on it, write it down.  Some locks will not have a serial number. Ask the distributor to contact the manufacturer on your behalf to validate your ownership of the lock and provide you with the combination.  If the lock is attached to an object, for instance a box, retailers will likely not assist you. Be aware that the retailer may charge a fee for this service. Visit the manufacturer's website to find out if they offer this service.  Due to security concerns, manufacturers will likely not provide the combination over the phone or via email. You may be required to furnish proof that you own the lock, such as a notarized document certifying your ownership. If the lock belongs to a school or business, the administrators may have a list of combinations based on serial numbers.  Write down the serial number to bring to the main office. If the lock is attached to something, for instance a locker, be prepared to furnish proof that you have a right to access the belongings within the locker.


Locate the spark plugs in your car (refer to owners manual). Let the engine cool before removing your spark plugs. Measure the gap of the spark plug.

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

When you open the hood or bonnet of your car, you should see a bundle of 4-8 wires leading to different points on the engine compartment. The spark plugs are located at the engine end of these wires, under the plug covers that attach them.  On a 4-cylinder engine, spark plugs will be located on the top or side of the engine in a row. On an inline 6-cylinder, they are located on the top or side of the engine head. On V6 and V8-cylinder engines, plugs should be separated evenly on each side of the engine. Some cars have engine covers you'll have to remove to see the spark plug wires, tracing them back to find the plugs themselves. You should always check your owner's manual and look up where your spark plugs are, how many you have, the correct "gap" and the size socket needed to remove them. You should also number the corresponding leads to the cylinder so as not to confuse which lead goes where when replacing with new plugs.  At this point, it is good practice to inspect the leads for any damage or cracks as replacement leads may also be required. If you've been running the car for a while, the plugs and the entire engine and exhaust system manifold can get extremely hot. Only remove them when the engine is cool enough to touch. In the mean time, assemble your tools while you wait for your engine to cool. To change your spark plugs, you'll need:  A ratchet socket drive wrench An extension bar Spark plug socket, usually included in most ratchet socket sets A spark gap gauge or feeler gauge, available at any auto parts store This number should be a specific measurement anywhere between .028-.060 inch, with a bit of wiggle room depending on your particular set of plugs and your car. These days, most plugs come preset according to the model number of the plug and their application, but it is wise to double check. Refer to your owner's manual to find out the optimum distance for your spark plug gap and use a gap checker or feeler gauge to check the distance.  If the distance of the spark plug gap is higher than it...


Locate the speakers on your phone.

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

iPhone speakers are typically located on the bottom to the left and right of the charger port. Samsung speakers are typically on the bottom as well, but usually restricted to the left or right of the charger port. Ear speakers are almost always located on the top of the front face of the phone where you place your ear. Take note of alternative speaker locations, such as the side near the volume button or on the bottom of the phone's front face.


Locate the state in which you were born. Find your state’s application process. Gather the necessary information. Complete and submit the application.

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

The federal government does not manage birth certificates and other vital records, so you will need to identify the appropriate state. Each state will have a slightly different process for requesting a birth certificate. Usually, this process is handled by the state’s vital records office. Try doing an Internet search for this office’s website, or use the state-by-state guide compiled by the federal government. Although each state will have its own process, they will ask for much of the same information. Some states may require additional information (like names of the cities your parents were born in), but you will certainly want to make sure you have the following facts, documents, and other requirements handy:  Your full name Your sex The full names of your parents, including any previous names each of them used The date of your birth The place of your birth, including the city, county, state, and hospital The reason for the request Your relationship to the person whose birth certificate is being requested, if you are doing so for someone other than yourself Contact information A copy of a valid ID, such as a drivers license A fee (make sure you know what payment methods your state accepts) Each state will have its own application, which you can find either at the vital records office or online. You will be given a number of options for submitting the application, although specific options will vary by state:  In person at the vital records office(s) By mail, addressed to the vital records office Online (increasingly common, though not everywhere) By telephone


Locate the symbol. Separate your cards by set symbol and number. Look for "secret rare" cards. Collect promotional cards together. Place cards in your storage container.

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

Most Pokémon cards have a symbol below the bottom right corner of the Pokémon's image. This symbol identifies the set. Some examples of set symbols include a flower (Jungle set, #2), a hollow star (Neo Genesis set, #8), and the letter 'R' (Team Rocket set, #5). Sets are usually released four times a year. If you have purchased cards from Pokémon International, or possess cards from this series, the set information will be located in lower right hand corner at the bottom of your card. These symbols can be small and easy to miss; look carefully! It'll be easy for you to group all like symbol cards together, but for further organization you'll need to arrange by set number. Each set has a designated number of cards, and each card is numbered within its set. This will help you organize your cards with even greater precision.  You may need to use an online card directory to determine each cards position in a set. Many online set directories will first require you to choose the set category (like Base, Aquapolis, and Jungle) before linking you to the card number directory. The base set of the first cards released in English do not have a symbol. You may want to gather these cards together and arrange them according to HP (hit points) or alphabetic order. Within sets, there are sometimes special cards that have a number higher than the set directory lists. These are "secret rare" cards. For example, you may see a card that is 63/62. This is not an error; this means that you have a special card. You'll find that some of your cards only have a card number and no set number. This indicates that the card is a promotional card, also referred to as a "promo." These are frequently given as a bonus to players when they purchase a deck.  Although promotional cards have no set number, you can still organize these according to card number or release date. You'll have to look up this information online, as there are many promo cards, each with a different number and release date.  You should also keep an eye out for "black star...


Locate the terminals for the component to be removed. Clean the terminals. Attach a heat sink. Clean your soldering iron as it heats. Push down on the desoldering pump. Heat the old solder with your soldering iron. Vacuum up the melted solder. Empty the desoldering pump into the trash. Troubleshoot difficult connections. Clean the board.

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

A desoldering pump, also called a solder sucker, vacuums up melted solder to separate soldered components from a circuit board. Thoroughly examine both sides of the board to isolate the specific spots holding each component in place.  The desoldering pump works best for through-hole connections. You can use it on surface-mounted devices as well, but it is less effective. That said, it's one of the cheapest options. You can easily ruin a circuit board by accidentally separating the board layers during the desoldering process. Ensure that you only desolder the exact pins you need to remove a faulty component. Using isopropyl alcohol on a toothbrush, gently clean the terminals of the component(s) to be removed. Ensure that you clean only the terminals on the soldered side of the board and not anything on the component side. The heat from the soldering iron can damage sensitive components such as integrated circuits or transistors. To dissipate some of the heat, clip a metal alligator clip between the component and the terminal you plan to desolder. Turn your soldering iron on and let it heat up for about three minutes. Using a wet sponge make quick passes from base to tip over your soldering iron to clean it. You may see a tiny bit of smoke as you pass the sponge, but it's just from the moisture in the sponge. Press the end of the pump until it clicks into place. This compresses a spring, and latches it in the depressed position. Using the tip of your soldering iron, heat the old solder until it melts. You can push the terminal with the soldering iron tip at the same time to help free the component as the old solder melts. Use an old soldering iron if you have one, since pushing with the iron can wear the iron down. Touch the tip of the desoldering pump to the solder pad and melted solder, without applying pressure. Release the spring (usually by pushing a button on the side) and the piston will shoot back quickly. This creates a vacuum which pulls the melted solder up into the pump.  The tip of the pump may...


Locate the test center about 1 week in advance of your test. Read the IELTS terms and conditions before test day. Get 7 to 9 hours of sleep Eat a good breakfast on the day of the test. Turn off your mobile device and put it away for the test. Try to stay calm and take deep breaths if you get nervous.

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

To ensure that you won’t get lost on test day, it is a good idea to seek out the test center about a week or a few days ahead of time. This way, you will know how to get there and you will be less likely to get lost on the day of your test. For example, you could drive or walk to the test center about a week before the test. You may even want to identify an alternate route just in case the main route is blocked on your test day. When you register for the test, you will be provided with information on the exam and test center. Read through this information carefully before the day of your test so that you know what you need to bring, when to arrive, and any other important details.  For example, the test may specify that you will need to arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of the exam. You will need to bring some sort of photo ID, such as a driver’s license or student ID. Check the terms and conditions to find out what types of ID are acceptable at your test center. the night before the test. Being well-rested will help you to stay focused and calm during the exam, so try to go to bed early the night before your test. You don’t need to go to bed hours earlier than usual, but try to turn in about 30 minutes earlier than normal. Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep so you will be well rested. Avoid the urge to stay up late studying the night before. This will not improve your performance on the test. You won’t retain information that you try to learn at the last minute and you will have a harder time concentrating if you are tired. Being hungry during the exam will distract you and make it hard to stay focused. Eat something on the morning of your test that will sustain you during the exam. If you’re taking the test in the afternoon or evening, then have lunch or a snack before you head out for the test.  Try having a bowl of cereal with milk and fruit, or eggs and a couple of slices of toast. Drink coffee or tea with your breakfast if you like, but don’t skip breakfast and only have coffee or tea. This is...


Locate the throttle on the right side grip of your motorcycle. Find the brakes above the right grip and near your right foot peg. Familiarize yourself with the clutch and shifter.

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

Find the throttle on the right-hand grip of your bike. The throttle controls the speed of the motorcycle. To accelerate and engage the engine, twist the throttle toward you. Make sure the throttle snaps back into place if you turn it and let go. If not, have a mechanic take a look at it before you ride. Locate the brake for the front wheel by the handle right above the throttle. You’ll be using the front brake most frequently. While sitting on the bike, find the rear wheel brake with your right foot. Depress the lever to engage the brake.  Most of your stopping power will come from braking your front tire. If you don’t see a lever near your right foot for a rear wheel brake, consult the owner’s manual for your motorcycle to learn where specific controls are found. Most motorcycles are manual transmissions and need to be shifted up or down as you accelerate and decelerate. Look for the clutch above the left handlebar. It will look similar to the handle that controls your brakes. Find the shifter in front of your left foot and control it with the up and down lever.  Keep your bike in neutral with your kickstand down when you aren’t using it. Neutral is usually found in between the first and second gear. Many motorcycles work with a “1 down, 5 up” shift pattern. From lowest to highest, the gears usually go first, neutral, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth.


Locate the wiring socket on the back of your vehicle. Plug the trailer wire into your vehicle. Test the headlights, blinkers, and brake lights on the trailer.

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

The wiring socket is a wide plug that will power the lights on your trailer. Look for a small panel on the back of your vehicle, inside the trunk, or even a loose wire close to the hitch ball. Make sure it isn’t damaged and is free from any corrosion that may prevent it from working properly.  If you cannot find the wiring socket on your car, check the manufacturer’s instructions for your car for further assistance. If your wiring socket is damaged, corroded, or frayed in any way, have it looked over by a mechanic before plugging the trailer wire into it. There should be a loose wire with a plug on one end near the trailer coupler. Run the wire above the coupler and the hitch ball and plug it into the socket on the back of your vehicle. Press the plug securely into the socket and use any latches on the wire to hold them together.  Some trailers will have metal loops along the side of the coupler that the wire can be threaded through to keep it out of the way. Avoid running the wire underneath the coupler and hitch ball, as this will increase the chances of it getting damaged or becoming unplugged should the trailer detach from your vehicle. Before you start driving, you should always make sure the trailer lights are working. Start your vehicle, engage the handbrake, and turn on the headlights. Check the appropriate lights on the back of the trailer are on, before repeating the same process with each indicator and the brake lights.  If any of the lights aren’t working, you should not drive the trailer. This is the same as driving without the corresponding light on your car working. Call a mechanic to ask for assistance before driving your car with the trailer attached. Rather than moving back and forth from the driver's seat of your car to the rear end of your trailer, ask a friend to check the lights while you activate them.

Locate your TVA. Practice a "C" curve. Practice sucking your tummy toward spine. Do a hip bridge to isolate transverse abdominal muscles. Do planks for a full core workout. Do bicycle kicks to work your TVA.

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

You can't work on a muscle without first knowing where it is. Activate the muscle by mentally locating it and doing basic movements that let you feel where the muscle is, making a brain-body connection. Picture the muscle like a corset around your stomach that draws in from 360 degrees to support your spine and pelvis.  Try an exercise to physically engage the TVA. Lay on your back. Imagine pulling your belly button up into your spine. If needed, use your finger to gently give your body a physical cue. Don't hold your breath but continue breathing normally. You should be able to carry on a conversation. The muscle you are using is your TVA.  It is important you learn how to engage this muscle, because you may need to specifically focus on and use this muscle during some of the exercises or else you will not get the full benefit. When doing any of the exercises in this article, make sure you are thinking about your TVA and engaging it. This will help you recognize what it feels like to contract your abdominal muscles and isolate them. Sit up tall on the ground with your knees bent and your arms on top of your legs. Start to "scoop" out your belly, arching backward, drawing your stomach up near your spine. Roll back into the upright seated position. Repeat this 6 times. The TVA is beneath the outer muscles commonly associated with a six-pack. For this reason, you'll want to focus on exercises that work deep in your abs. Lie on your back with your knees bent. Pull your belly toward your spine by slowly breathing in. Hold each pull for 4 to 6 seconds and then release. This is a great exercise that will focus in on your TVA in a strengthening and stretching movement. Find a flat comfortable surface. Yoga mats can be great for this. Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat, and arms at your side. Contract your abdominals and use them to lift your hips 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) off the floor. The contraction will pull your hips up and in toward your ribcage. Controlling the movement with your abdominals,...


Locate your broiler. Prepare your broiler pan. Position your oven rack. Warm up your broiler. Use the "high" setting.

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

There are two options for where your broiler might be. In some gas ovens, there will be a drawer below your oven with your broiler inside. In most electric ovens and some gas ovens, there will be a broiling rod at the top of the oven. Take a peek inside your oven and determine the location of your broiler. If your broiler sits inside of a drawer at the bottom of your oven, it may contain a two-tiered broiling pan. If your broiler is in the top of your oven--or if you've misplaced your two-tiered broiling pan--you will need to use something else. A rimmed cookie sheet is a good option. Cover the pan you will use with aluminum foil, and give it a light spritz with non-stick cooking spray.  If you have a two-tiered broiling pan, cover both tiers with foil. Cut slits into foil on the top pan to allow any fat or grease to drain. Do not use glassware. Even reinforced glass--such as Pyrex--can be damaged under such high heat. If your broiler sits inside your oven, you will need to make sure that you have a rack in the best position. In general, you will place an oven rack in the highest possible slot, 2-4 inches (5.08 - 10.16 cm) away from the heat source. However, for some recipes (such as broiling certain vegetables or fruit), you may want the rack a bit farther away. Your broiler is a direct heat source that warms up pretty quickly. Turn on your broiler and allow it to heat up for five minutes before you begin cooking your food. Most broilers will have just an "on" or "off" option. But some may also have "high" or "low" settings. In general, keep your broiler set to high and ignore the low setting. If you are using the low setting, you are really just roasting your food, not broiling.


Locate your classes on the school map. Check your school’s website for information about your classes. Prepare some answers to popular icebreaker questions. Contact your friends and see if you have any of the same classes. Go to bed early the night before.

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

If you are going to a big school or college, it’s really useful to know where all your classes are. Print out a map and highlight where your classes are. This will stop you from having to search for them on your first day.   Don't be scared about being late to your classes or not knowing where your classes are. On the first day of school teachers understand that you don't yet know your schedule and will be understanding if you are late. If you are having trouble finding your classes, ask a staff member for help. You will be able to find a map of your school on their website. Take the map to school with you so that other people can point you in the right direction if you get lost. Some high schools and colleges have websites where students can log in and find messages and materials from their teachers. Log into your school’s website before the first day to see if there are any messages or special materials you will need to review. For example, your teacher may have posted the syllabus for the class online. This will tell you more about the class, including your required textbooks, assignments, and the teacher’s policies. On your first day of school, you will most likely be asked to participate in icebreaker games. These are a great way to get to know other people in your class but can be a bit nerve-wracking if you feel shy. Practice saying your name, 2 facts about yourself, and where you are from. Say it a few times in front of the mirror, or practice saying it to your parents. This will help you feel more confident about talking in front of your class. If you already know someone at your school, ask if they have any of the same classes or lunch periods. If they do, organize to meet up before class or lunch. Having someone you know will help you to feel more comfortable in a new environment. Send your friends a picture of your schedule so they can compare it with their own. This will give you less time to worry about the next day. If you have a good sleep you are more likely to feel alert, energized, and...


Locate your computer's audio-out port. Find the microphone jack if necessary. Determine whether or not you need a converter. Plug your audio device into a power source if necessary. Plug your device into your computer. Test your device.

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

On desktop PCs, this port is typically on the back of the CPU box, while iMacs have a 3.5-millimeter headphone jack on the back of the monitor. Some common audio-out methods include the following:   Optical - A pentagonal port. Optical cables will usually work with high-end, modern speakers.  RCA - A red port coupled with a white port. These ports receive 3.5 millimeter cables of the same colors.  Headphone jack - The 3.5-millimeter headphone jack can reliably be found on most computers somewhere on the side of a laptop or the back of a computer case. For speakers or headphones, the plug is color-coded in green and usually has a headphone symbol identifying it. The pink jack is for microphones and the blue jack is for Line-In, similar to an aux input.  HDMI - HDMI slots work the same way on your computer as they do on your TV, which includes audio transmission. On laptops, the audio-out port is typically the headphone jack. The microphone jack is the same size as the headphone jack (3.5 millimeters), and it usually has an image of a microphone next to it. If you're connecting a device that needs separate microphone input (e.g., some gaming headsets), you'll need to know where the microphone port is. USB ports can also double as audio-in connections. If you have a new set of speakers and an old computer, for example, you might need an optical-to-RCA adapter, since your computer likely only supports RCA or headphone input.  You can find audio converters, also known as "audio extractors", in most tech departments in retail stores or online. If you have to use an audio extractor, you'll also need to purchase a separate set of cables in order to attach the extractor to your computer. Things like speakers and condenser microphones will likely need a power source (e.g., a wall socket or your computer's USB port) to function. You may also need to press an "On" switch on the back of the main speaker unit. The device's main unit (e.g., the headset or main speaker) should have an audio cable that plugs into your...


Locate your core muscles so you can better activate them. Focus on contracting your core muscles when you exercise. Do bridges to engage your hips and core muscles. Build your ab muscles with crunches. Try single-leg abdominal presses to build up your muscles. Expand to the double-leg abdominal press. Use rotational exercises to work out your oblique muscles. Perform the quadruped to work all of your core muscles at once. Use modified planks to build core stability and burn fat. Attempt the side plank exercise to target your oblique muscles. Target your lower back muscles with the superman exercise.

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

Your core includes your abdominal, lower back, and pelvic muscles. They’re separated from your chest muscles by your diaphragm, which helps you breathe.  In addition to protecting many vital organs inside your abdominal cavity, your core muscles are also responsible for helping you move the main portion, or trunk, of your body. Find your core muscles so you can focus on activating them when you exercise to get a flatter stomach.  Your core muscles are extremely important and should always be included as part of a well-rounded exercise routine. The core is one of the widest used sets of muscles in your body and yet, it is one of the muscle groups that many tend to forget to train regularly. Whenever you work out, focus your attention on contracting the deepest abdominal muscle you have, which is called the transversus abdominis to keep yourself stable and to active your core.  This is the same muscle that tenses when you cough, so coughing will help you locate it.  Contracting your core muscles will help you burn fat and give you a flat stomach. Remember to breathe deeply throughout each exercise whenever you work out. Lie on your back with your knees bent.  Keep your arms flat on the floor beside you so you’re in a neutral a position. Tighten your abdominal muscles, and lift your hips off of the ground.  Align your knees and shoulder, and hold yourself in this position as long as you can, squeezing your glutes and core the entire time. Lower yourself gently to the floor so you don’t injure your back or tailbone. Lie on your back and raise your feet to form a 90-degree angle with your knees and hips. Focus on your transversus abdominis and tighten all your abdominal muscles.  Raise your head and shoulders off the ground while your arms are crossed over your chest. Gently lower your head and shoulders back to the floor and repeat the motion 10-15 times.  If it helps, you can place your feet against a surface like a wall or table to stabilize them. Aim for 2 or 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions to work your ab...

Locate your lint trap. Locate your lint filter. Remove the lint filter from the lint trap. Remove any visible lint from the filter. Vacuum the filter screen. Vacuum the lint trap. Wipe around the lint trap and the filter area. Wipe down the inside of the dryer door. Insert the lint filter into the lint trap. Deep clean the filters approximately once per month.

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

Depending on the design of your dryer, the lint trap will either be on the top of the dryer or located just inside the door. Consult your appliance's user manual if you have any concerns. It is located inside the lint trap, which is the slot the filter slides into. The lint filter is designed specifically to keep lint off of your clothes. If it accumulates too much lint, that lint will then end up on your clothing. Pull the filter gently from the top and it should slide out easily. The filter looks like a fine mesh screen, held in a frame of plastic. Using your fingers initially is the easiest way to begin.  A good trick is to grab a little of the lint in the corner and then slide your fingers across the filter screen, picking up the rest of the lint along the way. Make sure to wipe the entire surface of the filter screen and discard any lint you remove. Use a soft brush vacuum attachment. Turn on the vacuum and brush the attachment across the filter screen, which will remove any remaining lint. Use the vacuum attachment that has the long, thin neck and stick the attachment gently into the trap, as far as it will go. This will remove any residual lint from the trap. Use a soft rag, which will remove any lingering lint. If you notice any stubborn lint, try going back over the area using a dryer sheet. The remaining lint will cling to it. Use a soft rag, which will remove any lingering lint. Use the dryer sheet trick in the previous step for any stubborn lint. The freshly cleaned lint filter should slide easily back into place. You should hear it lock gently back into place. If you don’t, pull the filter out gently and re-insert until you hear it lock into place. Simply remove them and wash with warm, soapy water. Allow them to air-dry thoroughly before replacing.


Locate your local SNAP office. Follow the application instructions provided by your local SNAP office. Submit your application. Schedule and attend an interview. Obtain your EBT card. Follow the rules once you receive your card. Re-certify your benefits.

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

If you are eligible to receive SNAP benefits, use the interactive map provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to locate your local office and/or state application. Just click on your state on the map.  Your local Social Security office can help you, too, if you have or are applying for SSI benefits. They have the appropriate forms, and can send them to their sister SNAP office if that's easier for you. If you don't have SSI, however, you'll need to go to the SNAP office in person.  Since each state handles its own SNAP services, many states use different names for the benefits. For instance, the program is called CalFresh in California and the Food Assistance Program in Florida. Several states allow residents to apply online, while others will ask you to download and print an application, call to have one mailed to you, or pick one up in person. Visit the SNAP website to find out if your state allows online applications. Each state's application process will differ, but the type of information requested will be essentially the same, and will include:  Household financial information, such as money spent on rent; house payments; heating and cooling and other utilities; cash on hand or money in a bank account; childcare costs; and income from work or other sources such as Social Security, SSI, child support, or unemployment benefits  Number of dependents in the household Government benefits you currently receive or have received in the past (i.e. Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, or veteran's benefits) Medical information for you and/or the people who reside in your household Again, every state's procedure differs. However you can (whether by Internet, snail mail, or in person), submit your application. It should be noted that if you apply in person, you may be automatically screened for expedited processing, allowing you to receive benefits more quickly.  If you go in person, the office might be able to usher you through the process within five days. If you have less than $100 in your bank account...


Locate your pine pitch. Divide your pine pitch, if necessary. Fill a jar 1/3 of the way full with pitch. Add organic plant oil.

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

If you live in a rural area, you can get pine pitch straight off of trees. You can see pine pitch oozing out of the bark of pine trees, as pitch is used to heal wounds and keep bark strong.  Use your hands on a small container to harvest pitch. Gently peel off pitch that's oozing out of a tree and place it in your container. Keep gathering pitch until you have about a third of a jar's worth. As trees need pitch for their own care, do not take too much from any one tree. Harvest a small amount of pitch from various trees until you have enough to make salve. In some cases, you may end up with bits of pine pitch that are in hard chunks. Separate these chunks from the more liquid-like pine pitch and then break down the chunks by hand. Break the hard chunks into small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the quicker the chunks will break down when you're making your salve. Once your pitch is gathered and prepared, take a mason jar. Take a jar that is large enough to make the amount of salve you want. Fill it about a third of the way full with pitch. Make sure to use a jar you do not intend to use again. Pine pitch is very sticky and you cannot reuse the jar after using it to make salve. You can use any type of organic plant oil that you want. You can, for example, use olive oil, coconut oil, grapeseed oil, or any other organic plant out. Fill the jar the rest of the way with organic plant oil. You should aim for a ratio of roughly one part pitch and two parts plant oil.

Select the single remaining partition as the destination for the installation. Wait for the installation to complete. Finish the installation and enter your product key. Download the necessary drivers for your laptop. Restoring the computer doesn't fix the problem.

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

Laptops often require a variety of specific drivers, and using the recovery disc is the easiest way to make sure that these get reinstalled when you reset your laptop. If you can't use the Recovery Manager because the recovery partition is gone, try to use the recovery disc. You can order new recovery discs from Gateway. If you don't have a recovery disc for your laptop, you can use a Windows installation disc to wipe and restore your laptop. You will need a disc for the same version of Windows that's currently installed.  If you're using Windows 7 and have a valid product key, you can create a disc here. You will need a blank DVD or USB drive with at least 4 GB free. If you're using Windows 8 and have a valid product key, you can create a disc here. You will need a blank DVD or USB drive with at least 4 GB free.  In order to use a recovery disc or install Windows from the disc, you'll need to set your computer to boot from the disc drive before the hard drive. The Boot Menu will allow you to change the boot order. If you created an installation USB drive, select your USB drive as the first boot device. Make sure that the Windows installation disc or USB drive is inserted. This will start either the Recovery Manager if you are using a recovery disc, or it will start the Windows setup process if you are using a Windows installation disc.  If you are using the Recovery Manager, refer to the previous section for instructions on restoring your laptop. If you are using a Windows setup disc, read on. The installation process will erase all of the data on the hard drive and start from scratch. This will allow you to ensure that everything has been deleted. When asked to choose where you want to install Windows, you will be shown all of the partitions on your hard drive. Select each partition and click "Delete". This will delete all of the data on the partition. The installer will automatically format it to the correct file system and begin installing the Windows files. The Windows installation process usually takes...


Locate your starting point. Single crochet across the heel. Work a second row of single crochet. Fasten off the yarn. Repeat.

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

Examine your stitches at the back of the heel and find the center stitch. Count five stitches to the right of this stitch; this will be your starting point.  Note that you will be working into the trim you created when joining the soles together, so those are the stitches you need to count out in this step. Also note that you should use your accent color when creating the back heel. Single crochet once into your starting stitch, then once into each of the next nine stitches after that.  You will be working toward the center back of the heel at first. After your first five stitches, you will end up working past the center to its left. This row of single stitches should be evenly centered along the back. Chain one, then single crochet once into each of the stitches of your original back heel row. Cut the yarn, leaving an 8 inch (20 cm) tail or so. Pull this tail through the loop on your hook to knot the yarn. The excess tail here will be used to help sew the pieces together later. Follow the same procedure outlined here to crochet a back heel onto your other sole.


Locate your target before you ready your grenade. Grab your grenade in your throwing hand. Pull the pin with your non-throwing hand. Throw with an overhand motion. Take cover!

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

Unlike firearms, there's no way to "point" a grenade at your enemies so that is selectively deals to damage to them — grenades will indiscriminately hit anything, friend or foe, that's within their blast radius. For this reason, it's extra-important to know where your enemy is before you pull the pin. Don't even grab your grenade until you've identified an enemy position you intend to strike — you do not want to be caught with a live grenade and have nowhere to throw it. Note, however, that, in combat situations, you can expose yourself to enemy fire if you spend too much time peeking out of your cover and trying to locate your enemy. This requires you to delicately balance your need to locate your target with your need to protect yourself. Many sources recommend against spending more than just a second or two looking for your enemy. When you've found a target and you're ready to throw, grab your grenade in the hand you usually use for throwing. Grip the grenade in the palm of your hand with the pull ring pointing up. Use your thumb to put steady pressure on the safety lever — the large, square, metal lever running from the top down the side of the grenade. Don't let up your pressure on the lever until you're ready to throw. The lever holds a small but very important part of the grenade called the striker in place — if you relax your grip on the lever after you pull the pin (this is called "milking" the grenade), it's possible for the striker to rotate and strike the fuse while the grenade is still in your hand. Because this can easily be deadly, it's important to get in the habit of keeping steady pressure on the lever at all times before throwing. Grip the ring on the side of the lever mechanism by slipping a finger through it and remove it with a pulling, twisting motion. The safety clip holding the lever in place should fall off of the grenade. Note that, contrary to the portrayal of grenades in movies and on TV, their fuses aren't necessarily lit when you pull the pin. Rather, this happens when you...


Locate your water meter. Remove the cover of the meter box. Check whether your property has analog or digital meters.

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

Residential water meters can ordinarily be found at the front of the property near the curb or street. They are most often housed in concrete boxes underground with heavy steel covers that are bolted shut and labelled “Water” for ease of identification.  In an apartment or condominium, the water meters will likely be located in a utility room in the basement or at ground level. They might also be located directly on the building’s exterior.  If your water bill is included in the cost of your rent or homeowner's association dues, the usage for your entire building will be read from a single meter. Make sure to check with the provider first to find out if it is okay for you to access the meter. Insert a screwdriver or similar tool into one of the small holes in the cover and pry it up carefully. Set the cover aside somewhere nearby. If your meter box has a hinged cover, simply pull back the lid.  Never attempt to open your meter box by hand. Snakes, rodents, insects and other dangerous animals have been known to nest inside water meter boxes. Go ahead and wipe the underside of the cover clean of dust, dirt and cobwebs while you have it off. An analog meter will appear as a large circular dial that may have one or more moving hands. Newer digital meters feature glowing readouts similar to an alarm clock and don’t require any complicated calculations to read.  An analog water meter may be covered with a protective cap you will need to lift in order to see the meter's display. Some digital meters are light activated and won’t show your water usage until you shine a flashlight on them.  Keep in mind that you will be held liable for any repairs or assessments if the meter is damaged.


Lock eyes with your love interest. Stand or sit in a way that mirrors your love interest's body position. Smile and be friendly. Determine if the person is interested in you. Ask for a date.

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

Before you can get someone to fall in love with you, you have to make sure s/he knows you exist and you are interested in him or her. Making eye contact is a simple, effective way to indicate your interest to someone. Research has shown that prolonged eye contact can increase feelings of attraction between two people. Use eye contact to flirt with your love interest to get him or her interested. Try gazing into the person’s eyes for a few minutes and then slowly turn your gaze elsewhere. Or, if a long gaze does not seem appropriate yet, try checking in with the person with frequent, quick glances. Mirroring body position can also indicate your interest in a person and provide opportunities for him or her to do the same. For example, if the person is leaning in towards you with one arm on the table, you can lean in with the opposite arm so that you look like a mirror image of the person. Make sure that you don’t overdo this one or make it too obvious that you are trying to mirror their body position. You may even find yourself mirroring the other person without trying, which is even better because it will seem more natural. Smiling is an easy way to show that you are interested in someone and it can also make you seem more attractive. Make sure that you smile at your date now and then to indicate your interest. Try to keep your smile as natural and relaxed as possible. Don’t force it or smile in a way that is unusual for you. As you show your interest in someone, watch for signs that s/he is also interested in you. If you notice that the person is also smiling, making eye contact, and facing you when s/he talks, then this might be a good sign. Watch for other positive body language as well, such as playing with the hair, touching your arm, or fidgeting with clothes. If someone does not seem interested in you, don’t take it personally or get discouraged. Just keep looking! If the person seems interested, ask if s/he would like to go out with you sometime. Asking someone out can be a bit scary, but if you don't...


Lock important items in the hotel safe. Make photocopies of your passport or ID. Split your cash while out for the day. Use a dummy wallet. Secure your camera with a wrist strap.

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

Many hotels have a safe within your personal room. If there is a safe in your room, store your passport, some credit cards, and cash inside when you are out for the day. This will help ensure the safety of your most important items. Plus, if you do lose some of your cash, a credit card, or your purse or backpack during the day, you will have a secure stash back at your accommodation. Photocopy your ID and passport and keep the copies in a secure place. Give one to a friend or relative at home, and keep another with you while you travel. If you do lose your ID or passport while traveling, having copies will help make it easier for you to obtain a new one. Never keep all of your money in one place. If all of your cash is located in your backpack or purse and someone swipes either item, you will lose everything. Keep some of your money in your purse or backpack, but also store some of it in a secure pocket, a money belt, an inside jacket pocket, or in your shoe. Keep a second, cheap wallet in your pocket while traveling. Keep a small amount of cash in the dummy wallet and fill it with old membership cards or loyalty cards. If someone tries to rob you, hand over the dummy wallet. The thief will look inside and see some bills and cards that appear to be credit cards. They will make off with the fake wallet, and your real wallet with be safe with you. Keep your camera safe by attaching it to a wrist strap. While taking photos and exploring new scenery, it is easy to get caught up in the moment and to lose sight of what is happening around you. If your camera is secured at your wrist, a thief will be less likely to grab your camera out of your hand.


Lock in moisture with conditioner. Try deep conditioning your hair. Squeeze out excess water from wet hair. Apply a serum or cream to damp hair.

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

Dry hair, especially curly hair, needs lots of moisture. This is because curly hair tends to be on the drier end of the spectrum compared to straight hair. If you have curly hair or textured hair, moisturizing is the key to preventing frizz when it's humid.  Choose a shampoo and conditioner that is made for curly hair. Some shampoos and conditioners even offer protection against humidity. After shampooing and rinsing your hair, wring the excess water from your hair and then apply your conditioner from roots to ends. If you hair is thin, then you may want to apply conditioner from the middle of your hair to the ends and skip the roots. If your hair is thick, then apply the conditioner all over. Then, let the conditioner sit on your hair for a few minutes before rinsing it out. If you have thick textured hair or really curly hair, the it might help to deep condition your hair. Deep conditioning helps to lock in more moisture than regular conditioning and this may help to prevent your hair from curling up in the humidity.  To deep condition your hair, apply the deep conditioner to your hair and then let it sit for about five to 10 minutes.  You can do other things in the shower while you wait, such as shaving and washing your face. If you are just washing your hair, then put a plastic cap over your hair and go about your normal routine until it is time to rinse. You can also warm up your conditioner slightly before you use it. This may help your hair to absorb the moisture better. To heat up your conditioner, place the bottle in a bowl of very warm water and let it sit for about 10 minutes. This should warm up the conditioner and make it easier for your hair to absorb. Don’t ruffle the cuticle by drying your hair with a towel.Hair cuticles have lots of ridges. When you rub your hair with a towel, it raises the edges of the hair cuticle, which frizzes your hair. Instead of rubbing your hair with a towel, squeeze the water out of your hair.  Use your hands to squeeze out as much of the water from your hair as...
