Use a quality water conditioner such as Seachem Prime before putting fresh tap water in the tank. The chlorine and chloramines in standard tap water can harm bettas, as well as kill off all that beneficial bacteria housed in the filter. Older sources may suggest aging the water (standing it for a time) but it's best to use a water conditioner, as aged water removes chlorine but not chloramine and heavy metals. Use a master freshwater test kit to ensure that your tank is completely cycled before adding your betta! The parameters should be: ammonia 0 ppm, nitrite 0ppm, nitrate <20 ppm, and around 7 pH. It is a not a good idea to use distilled bottled water because this deprives your betta of necessary minerals and is not fish 'safe'. Treated tap water is both a cheaper and better alternative. If the tank is without a top cover, fill it about 80% high to ensure your fish won't leap out. Bettas are very active and can jump over 3 inches/7.5cm when motivated! However, bettas usually won't be trying to escape if they're comfortable in their home.

Use a rag to rub some warm water and isopropyl alcohol over the area around the loose part of the sole. If you can do so without pulling it off further, clean inside where the sole has become loose as well. Use a toothpick or cotton swab to apply a layer of adhesive inside where the sole has come apart from the shoe. Make the layer fairly thick, as it’s better to put in too much and have it overflow than to not have enough. Some adhesives need to cure for a few minutes after being applied and before the sole is put in place. Check the instructions on your adhesive product. Being careful not to get any adhesive on your hands, press the sole and the shoe together tightly. Don’t worry if some adhesive spills out -- this can be sanded off later. The sole should be pressed tightly against the shoe for the entire time it dries. Secure it using rubber bands or duct tape, or set weights on top of the shoe in the area where the glue is drying. Place the shoe somewhere out of the way, where it can stay cool and dry while it sets. Wait at least a full day before wearing the shoe. If any of the shoe sole adhesive spilled out when you pressed the sole down, sand it off using 120-grit sandpaper. Make sure the adhesive has dried out completely before sanding it.

Use a rag to rub warm water and isopropyl alcohol around the hole to clean off any dirt or grime. Let it dry for a few minutes before continuing. This will help the glue adhere to the rubber. Scrub the edges of the hole with sandpaper until it appears to take on a rougher texture. Remove the insole of the shoe and place a piece of duct tape inside the shoe where the hole is. If the hole does not go all the way through the inside of the shoe, put your finger in the hole and push up to see where the hole is and cover that part with duct tape. Being careful not to touch the adhesive with your bare hands, gently squeeze it into the hole. Make sure the entire hole is filled, and don’t worry if there is some overflow. The ice cube will allow you to smooth the surface of the glue without sticking to it. You can also use a tongue depressor or spoon covered with petroleum jelly. Set the shoe so that the sole is facing upwards. Leave it somewhere out of the way where it will be cool and dry. Leave it for at least a full day. Check to see if there is dried glue protruding from the hole or spilling out over the edges. If there is, use 120-grit sandpaper to sand it down until the bottom of the sole is smooth.

Use a rake, tiller, or pitchfork to dig 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) under the soil. Turn the soil over until you’ve loosened all the soil in your flower bed. You may also want to incorporate compost in the soil to promote flower growth. The information on the seed packet will explain if the seeds have any special germination needs. Soft-shelled seeds should be pressed lightly into the soil, while hard-shelled seeds should be completely covered with soil. Read the instructions to see which method you should use. This is useful when planting a wide variety of seeds or plants. The visual reminder will also let you know whether the flowers are growing or if your seeds failed to germinate.  Not all seeds will become flowers. Labeling will also prevent you from mistaking your seedlings for weeds. Lightly mist your flowerbed with water so that the soil is moist. The soil should always be moist while the seeds are germinating. To see whether the soil is actually moist, press your finger down into your flowerbed. If the soil feels dry under the surface, you know you need to water your seeds. The flowers should germinate within 3 weeks to a month. If you don’t notice that they are starting to grow, you may have to lay down more seeds. If it rains, you shouldn't have to water your flowers. However, it's important the soil under the flowers stays moist. If you have a period of time with no rain, water them so that the top 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) remains moist. Pruning the flowers after they have bloomed will encourage new growth. Use a set of hand pruners and clip away old or damaged flower petals or leaves. An organic fertilizer and promote the health of your flowers and will brighten their color. Look for a fertilizer designed for your specific type of flower, and sprinkle it on the surrounding soil. Read the instructions before you use the fertilizer so that you don't over fertilize them, which could kill them. A balanced 5-10-10 fertilizer can be used on the widest variety of flowers.

Use a ratio of 2 parts water to 1 part rice, and add a pinch of salt. Stir the ingredients together in a microwave-safe container. You'll need to cover the rice while it cooks, so use a container with a lid.  The rice will expand when it cooks, so make sure the uncooked rice and water fills the container less than halfway. Use 1 cup (240 mL) of rice and 2 cups (470 mL) of water to make 4 servings. Stick to the 2 parts water to 1 part rice ratio if you need more or less than 4 servings. Presoaking isn't necessary but, if you'd like, you could soak the rice in warm water for 15 minutes to reduce cooking time. For the first 5 minutes, cook the rice at your microwave's full power setting. If it's not boiling after 5 minutes, microwave it on high for another 2 to 5 minutes. You'll cover the rice later in the cooking process, but leave it uncovered for now. After the water comes to a boil, cover the container and set your microwave to medium power. Cook it for 15 minutes, then check to see if it's done. American-style converted rice should be done after about 15 minutes. If you have South Indian-style parboiled rice, it'll probably need to cook for at least 5 to 10 minutes longer. After 15 minutes, see if the rice absorbed all of the water and check its texture. If it's not done, microwave it on medium for another 5 minutes.  Cook and check the rice in 5 minute intervals until it's done. If the rice is tender but there's still water in the container, drain the excess water. When the rice is finished cooking, fluff it with a fork. Serve it from the microwavable container or transfer it to a serving platter.

Use a ratio of 2 parts water to 1 part rice. If, for instance, you’re cooking 1 cup (240 mL) of rice, use 2 cups (470 mL) of water. Pour the water into a medium pot, add a pinch of salt, then bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. If you want to make 4 servings, use 1 cup (240 mL) of rice and 2 cups (470 mL) of water. Divide those measurements in half to make 2 servings or multiply them by 2 to make 8 servings. Just stick to the 2 parts water to 1 part rice ratio. Stir the rice, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cover the pot. While American-style converted rice is precooked, other parboiled varieties actually need to be cooked longer than regular white rice. These varieties need to be cooked for around 45 minutes.  If you soaked the rice, check it after about 35 minutes. If you’re not sure which product you have, check its cooking instructions.

Use a regular teaspoon-sized spoon, and not a large one. You want it to fit neatly over your eye, so that the curve of the spoon will match the curve of your eyelid. Warming up the metal will create a better curl by transferring heat to your eyelash hairs. It will have a curling iron-like effect on your lashes. Dry the spoon once it's warmed up. Position it horizontally and rest it gently against your lid. You want the bottom of the spoon to be against your eyelid, with the bowl of the spoon facing out. Align the edge of the spoon with your upper lash line. Use your finger to press them over the edge of the spoon and into the bowl. Hold them there against the warm metal for thirty seconds.  Do the same to the lashes on your other eye. You may need to warm up the spoon again before starting. Using either clear or black mascara will help the curl stay in place for the rest of the day. Only use an eyelash comb to separate and define your lashes if there is clumping. Don't comb too much, or you'll lose the curl.

Use a rimmed baking sheet so the pine nuts won't slide off. Spread as many pine nuts as you want to toast on the sheet and set them aside while the oven heats. Ensure that the pine nuts are in a single layer so they toast evenly. Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and cook them until they smell fragrant. Stir the pine nuts after they've been in the oven for 5 minutes. This will help them roast evenly. Pay close attention to the color of the pine nuts and take them out of the oven as soon as they're brown and they smell nutty. Keep in mind that the pine nuts will continue to cook even after you take them out of the oven. To prevent the pine nuts from burning, transfer the toasted pine nuts to a clean, rimmed baking sheet that's cold. This will stop the pine nuts from overcooking. Once the pine nuts are completely cool, put them into an airtight container. Then place them in the pantry out of direct sunlight. For the best flavor, use the pine nuts within 1 week. To store the pine nuts for longer, refrigerate or freeze the toasted nuts in an airtight container for up to 3 to 6 months.

Use a ruler or straightedge to draw a straight line inside the circle, from one edge to another. The points that you use don't matter. Label the two points A and B. The circles should be the exact same size. Make A the center of one circle, and B the center of the other. Space the two circles so that they overlap like a Venn diagram. Draw these circles in pencil, not pen. The process will be simpler if you are able to erase these circles later on. There will be a point at the top and a point at the bottom of the "Venn diagram" space created between the overlap of the circles. Use a ruler to make sure that the line protrudes straight through these points. Finally, label the two points (C and D) at which this new line crosses the rim of the original circle. This line marks the diameter of the original circle. This should clear up your work space for the next step of the process. Now, you should have a circle with two perpendicular lines running through it. Do not erase the center points (A and B) of these circles! You will be drawing two new circles. Use your compass to draw two equal circles: one with the point C at its center, and one with the point D. These circles, too, should overlap like a Venn diagram. Remember: C and D are the points at which the vertical line intersects the main circle. This straight, horizontal line should cut through the overlap space of the two new circles. This line is the second diameter of your original circle, and it should be exactly perpendicular to the first diameter line. The intersection point of the two straight diameter lines is the exact center of the circle! Mark this center point for reference. If you want to clean up the page, feel free to erase the diameter lines and the non-original circles.

Use a ruler or the straight edge of your protractor to trace a straight line segment of an appropriate length. This line segment will become the first side of your triangle, and each of the other sides will be just as long – so make sure that it's the right size! to measure a 60° angle at one end. Measure out a new line segment that is equal in length to the first. Start it at one end of the original line segment, where you measured the 60° angle. Start from the vertex (the point) of the angle, and trace the straight edge of the protractor until you reach the next "point." Use the straight edge of your protractor to trace out the final side of the triangle. Connect the point at the end of the second line segment to the unattached end of the first line segment. You should now have an equilateral triangle.

Use a ruler to measure the horizontal length of the monitor from one end to the other. Don’t include the frame or structure around the monitor, measure only the viewing screen. Only measure the image area rather than the frame or border around the monitor. Use a ruler to determine the vertical height from the top of the screen to the bottom. To find the image area, multiply the height of the monitor by the length of the monitor. Express the image area in “horizontal length x vertical height.” For instance, if the length is 16 inches (40.6 cm) and the height is 10 inches (25.4 cm), the image area can be found by multiplying 16 by 10, which equals 160 inches.

Use a safer example than monsters. Find something your child created or enjoys and take a moment to discuss the difference between imagination and reality.  During the day, have your child draw pictures of the monsters he imagines at night. Then, take time to discuss it with him to help demystify the monster. If your child enjoys drawing special or funny cars then take time and draw a silly one that could never exist and ask your child if they ever saw such a crazy car. Take time to explain how you used your imagination to draw the car. Then explain the same concept to them with the monsters. Ignoring, devaluing, or extinguishing your child’s fears about monsters will only let your child believe that something is wrong with her. If you belittle her fear, most likely she will still believe in monsters and will no longer talk to you about it.  Refrain from saying things like "Big girls don't believe in monsters," or "Don't be a baby," or "The Boogie Man will get you tonight if you don’t go to sleep." Instead, relate to your child by explaining that you once believed in monsters too, and that eventually she will conquer her fears, too. Watch movies like Monsters, Inc. or read books such as Happy Monsters that would be helpful in alleviating the fear of monsters. If there is any part of the movie or book scares her take time to discuss it with her. Role play as monsters. Either you or your child is the monster and have fun with it. Use masks or costumes to make it more real but make sure your child is in complete control and laughing. This should be a fun exercise to give your child a different perspective, not a scary one. If you child’s nighttime fear and anxiety of monsters becomes too severe or manifest during the daytime, then it might be time to get a psychological evaluation to better identify and treat your child’s fears.  Be clear about the difference between fear and phobia. If your child is only afraid of monsters at night when you turn off the light and shut the door, it is most likely fear. If your...

Use a sanding sponge to sand away the loose particles around the edges of the dent. Run the sanding sponge over the dent itself to create a rough surface that the joint compound, which is used to fill the dent, will be able to adhere to easily. Dip a joint knife sideways into the container of joint compound and load about half of the blade. Run the knife over the dented area to smooth on the joint compound. Turn the blade at a 90 degree angle to the wall and run it over the area again to remove excess compound.  Be sure to remove the extra compound, so that the area won't have bumps once the the substance dries. Check the area it it dries to determine if the dent has been completely filled. You may need to apply a second coat if the joint compound shrinks as it dries. Use a sponge sander or another fine sander to gently blend the area with the surrounding wall space after the joint compound has completely dried. You can also use a dampened sponge to smooth the edges. Joint compounds are relatively porous, so it's necessary to prime the repaired area before you paint it. Otherwise, the paint will look different from the surrounding area.  Use a primer that matches the paint color. If possible, use the same one you originally used to paint the wall. If you have paint that also acts as a primer, priming the wall first isn't necessary. Once the primer is dry, use a soft cloth to paint over the area with the wall paint. Work gently and use strokes similar to the strokes you used to paint the surrounding wall so that the paint will look blended after it has dried.

Use a scale that will give you the value in kilograms. Because children’s weights change rapidly, especially right after birth, it is important to have an up-to-date weight. If your scale gives the weight in pounds, then you will need to covert the values to kilograms. Otherwise the answer will not be accurate. 1 pound equals 0.45 kilograms. If you know the child’s age, you can use these values:  A newborn that is only 15 to 30 minutes old will have an average blood volume of 76.5 milliliters of blood per kilogram. A newborn that is 24 hours old has 83.3 milliliters per kilogram. A three month old has 87 milliliters per kilogram. A six month old has 86 milliliters per kilogram. A child one to six years old has 80 milliliters per kilogram. A ten year old has 75 milliliters per kilogram. A fifteen year old has 71 milliliters per kilogram. As teens reach adult sizes and proportions, their blood volume will be the same as that of adults. Multiply your child’s weight times the average value for his or her age group. The result will be your child’s estimated blood volume.  The values may differ slightly when you use a different method of calculation. The accuracy of the calculations may also vary slightly based on whether these averages were calculated from a population that is similar in body side and growth patterns to your child.

Use a screwdriver or similar tool to unfasten the top of the filter, and gain access to the sponge or pad. Remove the sponge or pad and rinse it under warm water for a few minutes. Alternatively, you can use the cleansed water from an aquarium water change session as the rinse water to retain healthy bacteria, and prevent ammonia contamination. If the sponge or pad is too full of debris, then you should purchase a replacement and install it into the filter. Once the original or new sponge/pad are back inside the filter, re-fasten the top and screw it back into place. These filters needed cleaning at least every other week, but may need it more often if you have more fish. Chemical filters usually take the form of granules or pellets. The chemical filter is normally placed sequentially after an existing mechanical filter and the water—or between the mechanical filter, and biological filter. Follow the instructions on the product you select, but normally, you will simply pour the instructed amount of granules into the filter, or pre-fabricated filter bag for placing in the tank water directly. A form of activated carbon is typical choice in this case. Activated carbon absorbs organic particles, medications, bacteria causing odors, and colors dissolved into the aquarium water. When the water is becoming cloudy, or smells bad, it is time to change the chemical filter. Usually, these filters are good for 1-2 months. If you use a filter bag, then put the bag in a high water-flow area of the tank. The biological filter holds the bacteria that participates in the breakdown of material in the nitrogen cycle. This is a major step in keeping the water clear of ammonia, and nitrates—toxins that are eventually fatal to fish. These filters usually have a large surface area, and are located sequentially after the chemical filter. In other words, the water will filter through the mechanical and chemical filters first. If the biological filter is clogged, then you need to pull the filter, and rinse it only with the aquarium...

Use a scrubber to scrub the skin of the vegetables and fruits, especially if it isn't organic. Make sure to wash off any dirt or grit. If the vegetable or fruit has a peel, use a peeler to remove it, since tough skins are difficult for a baby to eat. Since you're going to steam the produce, you'll need to chop it into equal-sized pieces so that it will steam efficiently and evenly. Chop squash, sweet potatoes, applies, or whatever type of produce you have using a sharp knife.  Bananas and other very soft foods don't need to be steamed before you puree them. Be sure to use clean cutting boards and knives. If you're processing more than one kind of food, wash the cutting board and knife with hot, soapy water in between foods. Place the food pieces in a steamer basket. Add a few inches of water to a large stockpot. Cover the pot and place it on the stove over medium high heat. Remove the pot from heat once the food pieces are soft, after 5 - 10 minutes.   Use a clean fork to test the food pieces to see if they are soft. Steam the food to a softer texture than you'd normally do for yourself, since it should be completely smooth once you puree it. Only use water to steam the produce; don't add butter, salt, sugar, or any other ingredients unless you're sure your baby can digest them. Place the soft food pieces in a food processor and process them until completely smooth. If you don't have a food processor, you can use blender, food grinder, or a potato masher.  Be sure no chunks of food remain if your baby is under 6 months old. Older babies may be ready for mashed, rather than pureed, food. Clear this with your doctor before deciding how much to process the food.    If you're preparing meat, chicken or fish for an older baby, be sure to cook it to the correct internal temperature to kill bacteria. Use a meat thermometer to be sure. Meat should reach an internal temperature of 160 °F (71 °C), chicken should reach 165 °F (74 °C), and fish should reach 145 °F (63 °C). Cooked meat may be pureed just like any other...

Use a search engine such as Google or Bing for pictures of Darth Vader that show his entire body, as well as close-ups of different parts of his costume (e.g. mask, cape, suit). Use these as a guide when purchasing or finding supplies. You want to make sure you are prepared and acquire any necessary materials or supplies you might not have at home. Divide the costume into 6 sections: helmet, dark clothes, dark boots, dark gloves, cape, and accessories.  Decide what type of costume you want - something that is 100% accurate, something that is comfortable, or something that is quick and easy to make. Decide what parts of the costume you can make at home, and what you need to buy from a toy or costume store. Black is Darth Vader's signature color, and black clothing is a key element of the costume. You can save money by buying black clothing from a thrift store. You will need a long-sleeve shirt or sweatshirt, sweatpants or cargo pants, and socks.  Think about where you will be wearing the costume when selecting clothing items. Purchase heavy, bulkier clothes if you plan on wearing it outside as a Halloween costume. For a costume party, look for cotton items that are thin and loose to help keep you comfortable indoors. If you are planning on adding armor or padding (e.g. football pads) underneath your clothes to give you a muscular look, consider buying things in a size or two larger than you normally wear. You will need thick black gloves and boots. As a result of his deformities, Darth Vader kept his body covered-up at all times, including his hands and feet. Motorcycle gloves and boots work very well because they are big, thick, and typically black. Large leather or pleather gloves, and/or cheap black snow boots work as well.

Use a search engine to find one and enter your full VIN. Remember to use capital letters.  Follow the instructions below if you want to calculate it yourself instead. Shady used car salesmen sometimes replace VIN stickers to hide a history of damage. Using an online calculator can quickly confirm whether it's a lazy fake, but a smart criminal will use a real sticker from a similar model. This is where you can compare the VIN in the door to the VIN on the dash or on other body components to see if major components have been replaced with used parts or mismatched parts, indicating wrecks or rebuilds. The 9th character is a "check character" mandatory in North America but commonly used elsewhere in the world as well. This character can be used in a mathematical calculation to determine whether the VIN is fake, and has no other purpose.   Note: The check character will always be a number or the letter X. If it is a different letter, either the VIN was fake, the car was made before 1980 and uses a different standard, or the car was made outside North America and, unusually, the makers decided not to follow the check digit standard. Write down the 9th character now to check at the end of the calculation, or find it again afterward. The first step involves replacing each letter in your VIN with a number that can be used in a calculation. Use the following system, and keep the characters in the same order as you replace them. For instance, if your VIN begins AK6, you should rewrite it as 126.  A and J become 1 B, K, and S become 2 C, L, and T become 3 D, M, and U become 4 E, N, and V become 5 F and W become 6 G, P, and X become 7 H and Y become 8 R and Z become 9 If there is an I, O, or a Q in your VIN, it is fake. Real VINs never use these letters, due to how easy it is to mistake them for a number. You can skip the rest of this method, as you already know the VIN isn't real. Leave plenty of space between each digit as well as below the number. Consider turning a sheet of paper sideways so you have the room to write...

Use a search engine to look for a salon in your area online (try search terms: "salon dreadlocks") or ask around for a recommendation. This gives you a chance to meet the stylist, and the stylist a chance to assess your hair and give you an estimate of the time needed and costs involved.  Keep in mind that a salon removal will still be very time consuming, and a full dreadlock takedown can cost upwards of $500 USD. Consider getting a few estimates since this is a such a large investment. Treat the appointment like a mini-vacation, and try to have fun.  Your pocketbook may sting afterward, but your arms and hair will probably thank you.

Use a sharp blade to cut the bottom of the scion at a slant. The exposed surface should measure between 1 and 2 inches (2.5 and 5 cm) from the lowest to highest point.  This method is a little more difficult than cleft and bark grafting, but it is still fairly simple and works best when you're dealing with young, thing vines. Note that the scion diameter should roughly match the diameter of the rootstock vine you plan to use. Use a saw or sharp blade to cut the top of the rootstock at an angle and length that matches the cut of the scion. This process is best done on vines that are only one or two years in age. The vines must be no greater than 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) in diameter, making this method ideal for vines that are too small to be grafted using cleft or bark grafting. Position the scion over the rootstock. Arrange them so that the cambium layers of vine meet.  The cambium is a single layer of active plant cells found just beneath the bark of the vine. The two vines must be connected at their cambium layers if they are to join into one vine. If the rootstock is wider than the scion, you may need to settle for matching the cambium layer on one side of the graft only. Slice into the rootstock with a sharp blade, then mirror this slice in the scion. The two sliced portions of wood should be able to fit together.  Both cuts should start roughly one-quarter of the way down from the point of sloped cut on both the scion and the stock. These tongues help hold the graft together more securely and keep the structure a little more rigid. Wrap the grafted area of the vine with heavy-duty tape or similar material, then apply a generous layer of grafting compound over all of the exposed vine.  Sealing is important with all methods, but it is especially important with this one. Make sure that you are using thick grafting rubber tape or electrical tape when wrapping the grafted area. Apply a generous amount of asphalt grafting compound with a stiff paintbrush and add a coat of interior latex paint over the grafting...

Use a sharp kitchen knife to cut the Velveeta cheese into 1/2-inch to 1-inch (1.25 to 2.5 cm) cubes. Smaller cubes will melt quicker and more evenly than larger cubes. Regardless of what size exactly you make the cubes, try to make sure that all the cubes are roughly the same size. Cubes that are unevenly sized will melt at different rates, and as a result, some of the cheese may burn before the rest melts down. Add 2 Tbsp (30 ml) of butter to a small saucepan and place it on your stove. Heat the butter on a medium-low, stirring it frequently with a wooden mixing spoon, until the butter has completely melted and spread over the bottom of the pan.  You should not skip the butter when melting Velveeta using this method. The butter prevents the cheese from coming into direct contact with the bottom of the pan, acting as a thin barrier to prevent the Velveeta from burning. Do not use a heat higher than medium-low at any point throughout the process. Add the Velveeta cubes to the saucepan, spreading them out evenly across the bottom. Stir the cubes into the melted butter, coating them thoroughly. Continue heating and stirring the Velveeta for several minutes or until the cheese is halfway melted.  You must stir the cheese constantly as it melts. If you do not stir the cheese, parts of it could end up burning. As you stir, make sure that you scrape the bottom of the pan. Velveeta cheese can turn into a burnt, lumpy, and thick mess when you melt it using this method, but you should be able to prevent all of that from happening by adding up to 7 Tbsp (105 ml) of milk to the pan when the cheese is only partially melted. You may not need to add the milk; Velveeta can melt on the stove without it. The addition of milk is strongly recommended because it makes it much easier to melt the cheese product evenly and thoroughly without trouble. Continue heating the Velveeta mixture on medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it melts down into a smooth sauce. Use the melted Velveeta as a sauce or dip, or in another recipe,...

Use a sharp kitchen knife to cut the fresh corn cobs into 1-inch (2.5-cm) slices.  This can be somewhat difficult, and you will need to use a heavy, sharp knife in order to accomplish the task. When cutting, lean over the knife to put more of your weight and more pressure into the cut. Just be careful not to accidentally cut yourself in the process. The corn flavor is only optional. Store-bought corn syrup does not taste like corn, so if you want something closer to the store-bought kind, skip the steps dealing with corn and use 1.25 (310 ml) of water instead of the full amount. The rest of the ingredients and steps will remain the same. Add the corn and cold water to a medium-size saucepan. Bring it to a boil. Begin with cold water for best results. As soon as the water starts to boil, drop the heat down to medium and allow the water to calm to a simmer. Let boil for roughly 30 minutes.  Leave the lid off the saucepan. When finished, the water level should drop to half its original amount. Pour the water and corn through a colander. Save the corn-flavored water and return it to the saucepan. You can use the corn in other recipes or discard it. Stir the sugar and salt into the water until dissolved. Scrape the vanilla seeds out of the bean and add them to the saucepan.  For an even stronger vanilla taste, add the pod to the syrup mixture, as well. If you do not have any vanilla beans, you can substitute 1 tsp (5 ml) of vanilla extract, instead. Let the mixture simmer over medium to medium-low heat until all the sugar is dissolved and the mixture thickens. The mixture should be thick enough to stick to the back of your mixing spoon when done. Let the corn syrup sit out at room temperature until the temperature of the corn syrup itself drops to room temperature. Do not cool the corn syrup in your refrigerator at this stage. You can use the corn syrup immediately, or you can refrigerate it in a sealed container for several months.  Store the corn syrup with the vanilla bean. If sugar crystals start to develop...

Use a sharp kitchen knife to separate the cheese product into 1/2-inch to 1-inch (1.25 to 2.5 cm) cubes. Cut the cubes so that they are all roughly the same size. Also keep in mind that small cubes tend to melt faster than larger cubes. Place the cubes of Velveeta into your slow cooker and cover the machine. Heat the cheese using the low setting for a total of 30 minutes, then open the lid and stir the partially melted cubes.  Stirring the cheese at this time helps promote even melting. You should not need to add butter or milk to the Velveeta when you use this method. Since a slow cooker uses such a low, slow heat, there is very little chance that the Velveeta will burn or become lumpy. As such, there is no real need for the addition of other ingredients. Replace the lid on your slow cooker and continue cooking the cheese until it melts down into a smooth, thick sauce. This can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours. Try not to stir or remove the lid of the slow cooker during this time. The steam that builds up inside the machine is partially responsible for the melting process, so that process may take longer if you frequently lift that lid off. If you need the Velveeta to remain warm for a long time, switch the setting of the slow cooker to “warm” and serve or use the melted cheese directly out of the slow cooker.

Use a sharp knife and slice the beef into thin strips along with the grain. Each strip should be about 2 inches (5 cm) wide. Cut each strip crosswise into 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) slices. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, half the soy sauce, and the sesame oil. Add the beef, then stir well until all the meat is coated. Set the meat aside for 10 to 20 minutes. Use your hands to separate the noodles into strips. If necessary, cut the noodles into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) pieces.  Note that the noodles may break into shorter pieces as you separate them. Use actual chow fun noodles if possible. If not, use any wide rice noodle. Cut the white portions off the green onions. Smack the white parts with the flat side of your knife, and place them in a bowl.  You should also add the ginger and garlic to the same bowl, as well. Place the green portions of the onion in a separate bowl. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the white pepper, sugar, remaining soy sauce, rice wine, oyster sauce, and water. Place this seasoning liquid near the stove, next to the other ingredients. Place a large skillet or wok on the stove and heat it on high. Once hot, add 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of cooking oil. The skillet is hot enough when you can add a bead of water to it and watch it evaporate withing 1 to 2 seconds. Place the ginger, garlic, and crushed sections of the green onion in the hot oil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 15 seconds or until the aroma gets drawn out. Once ready, carefully push the aromatics to one side of the pan. Add the beef to the pan in a flat layer. Sear it without stirring for 1 minute. Place the bean sauce in the skillet. Stir together with the beef and continue cooking for 30 seconds.  Use black bean garlic sauce. If you cannot find any at the store, you can crush 2 Tbsp (30 ml) of cooked black beans with a fork and add that, instead. The beef should be cooked through, but be careful to avoid overcooking it. Once cooked, remove the beef, bean sauce, and aromatics. Set it aside. After removing the contents of...

Use a sharp knife to cut the okra into bite-sized pieces that will fry evenly. Fried okra is typically breaded with cornmeal, or a mixture of cornmeal and flour. It's fine to roll it in plain cornmeal, or cornmeal mixed with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. Whatever mixture you choose, each piece of okra in a thin layer of breading, and shake off the excess. Don't use a wet batter to bread the okra before freezing, though, since it won't hold up well in the freezer over time. Place the okra pieces on a baking sheet in a single layer. Put the baking sheet in the freezer for an hour. Remove it from the freezer when the okra pieces are firm enough to hold their shape. Fill each freezer bag to within an inch of the top with the frozen okra pieces. Close the top of the bag, leaving just enough space to stick a straw into the empty headspace. Suck the air out of the bag so that it closes tight around the okra, then remove the straw and seal the bag. When you're ready to use the okra, heat vegetable or peanut oil in a large stockpot. Let the oil get hot enough to sizzle when you add a piece of cornmeal to the pot. Put the frozen okra pieces directly into the hot oil and cook them until they're golden brown and crispy. Season with salt and pepper to serve.

Use a sharp knife to cut the venison roast into 1-inch (2.5-cm) cubes. During this time, you should also trim any visible fat or connective tissue you see. Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Toss the venison cubes in the flour, rolling and turning them as needed until all sides are coated. You could also do this by placing the flour and venison in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag and shake it vigorously to coat all the pieces. Pour the oil into a large skillet and heat it on medium-high for a minute or so.  The oil should become visibly thinner. Do not allow it to become hot enough to smoke, though. For a richer flavor, replace the oil with butter. Place the coated cubes of venison roast in the skillet of hot oil. Cook, turning frequently, until lightly browned on most sides.  Browning the cubes of meat before adding them to your slow cooker deepens the flavor. The oil or butter also adds fat to the otherwise lean meat, which will help the meat stay tender and moist during the cooking process. Dump the contents of the skillet into your slow cooker, dispersing the venison evenly over the bottom of the appliance. Do not drain the excess oil. Pour it into the slow cooker along with the meat. Layer the cubed potatoes, diced carrots, chopped celery, and chopped onion on top of the meat. You can alter or omit the vegetables you use, but you should always include onion since the pungent onion flavor helps mask the "gamey" taste of venison. Pour enough broth over the contents of the slow cooker to completely cover the venison.  You do not need to keep all of the vegetables submerged, but the meat itself needs to be submerged if you want it to remain moist. If you do not have beef broth, chicken broth, vegetable broth, venison stock, or water can be used, instead. Cover the slow cooker and cook it on high for 6 hours, or until the vegetables and cubes of meat are tender enough to fall apart. If you want to prolong the cooking time, switch the slow cooker on low and cook the stew for 8 to 10 hours. Switch...

Use a sharp knife to cut the venison roast into slices that are roughly 2 inches (5 cm) thick.  Cutting the roast into slices will make it easier to keep the meat submerged under the sauce as it cooks. You should also remove any visible fat and connective tissue as you cut the roast into slices. Spread the slices of onion evenly over the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the slices of deer roast on top of the onions.  The pungent onion flavor helps mask the "gamey" taste of the venison. If possible, avoid overlapping the slices of venison roast. Keep the slices in as even and flat a layer as possible. In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar and the brown sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved. This will form the base of your barbecue sauce. Add the beef broth, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, butter, chili powder, salt, ground mustard, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and black pepper to the vinegar-sugar sauce base. Whisk these ingredient in, blending everything evenly. Margarine, lard, or vegetable shortening can be used instead of butter, if desired, but you must include some sort of fat if you want the naturally lean deer meat to become tender and moist as it cooks. Pour the barbecue sauce over the venison slices, covering the meat completely and evenly. If desired, you can reserve 1/2 cup (125 ml) of the sauce to serve on the side when the shredded roast is finished cooking. Pour the liquid over the contents of the slow cooker, covering the roast in the process.  You may need to add more cola if 1 cup (250 ml) fails to cover the roast. Make sure that the roast is just barely covered. If you don't want to use cola, you can use beer, chicken stock, beef broth, or water. Regardless of what you use, though, the meat should be covered in liquid as it cooks. Cover the slow cooker and set it on low. Cook until the meat is tender enough to pull apart with a fork. If you don't have that much time, you can opt to cook the roast on high for 6 hours, instead. Remove the...

Use a sharp knife to do this. This will make the chestnuts roast faster, allowing the steam to escape from the chestnuts. You can also just pierce each chestnut several times with a fork. You can also just place them right on the grill, with the cut side facing up. Sprinkle them lightly with water to help them roast. Roast them until they're tender and the shell comes off easily. While they're roasting, use a spoon or spatula to move them around every few minutes so they don't burn. When they're done roasting, remove them from the oven. Wait 2-3 minutes for the chestnuts to cool off and then wrap them in a towel and squeeze them until the skin is crushed. Leave them in the towel for another five minutes. Do this while they're still warm to make the process easier. Take out the inner skin along with the shell. If any nuts are hard to peel, you can heat them briefly for a few more minutes until they're ready. Enjoy these nuts on their own while they're nice and hot.

Use a sharp serrated knife to divide the squash in half lengthwise.  Cut the squash in half from top to bottom.     Peeling is not necessary or desired.     Scoop out the seeds and pulp with a metal spoon or melon-baller.    The halves should be cut-side down. Add 1/2 cup (125 ml) cool to lukewarm water to the dish. The water helps to prevent the squash from sticking and also creates steam, which aids in the cooking process. Tightly cover the top of the dish with aluminum foil.  If using nonstick foil, make sure that the nonstick side faces down toward the squash.     Pinch the foil around the edges of the baking dish to ensure a tight seal. The squash should be tender enough to poke with a fork after it finishes. You may not notice any change in color.    If desired, scoop out the softened flesh and place it into a large bowl. Use a potato masher to mash brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon into the squash.  Wait several minutes after pulling the squash out of the oven before handling it.     You can also serve the squash without mashing it. Simply divide the squash into quarters or however many pieces you desire. Sprinkle it with brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon, or try different seasonings, like salt and pepper.

Use a sharpie to make wood grain lines on several paper towel rolls or toilet tissue rolls. You may want to cut longer rolls in half so that your logs are similarly-sized. If you have time, as an extra touch, try lightly soaking the paper towel rolls in water, crushing them in your hand,  and allowing them to dry before drawing wood grain lines on them. This will give them a wrinkled, realistic appearance, mirroring real logs. As an added decoration, you may want to add grey coals or rocks in and around your campfire. Doing this is easy - all you need to do is paint styrofoam packing peanuts grey (spray paint is cheap, easy, and works well). For bigger rocks, cut or break chunks from styrofoam packing material. Putting a small, well-concealed flashlight behind your fire is a great way to give it a flaming glow. Prop a small, medium-intensity flashlight so that it shines up into the base of the flames. Done correctly, this will make the flames at the base of the fire brightest, giving the impression that the fire is glowing with intensity. You may find that conventional bulbs give a better effect than LED bulbs. LED bulbs usually give off a "white" light and can be quite bright, while conventional bulbs can have a warmer, slightly dimmer, more natural "yellow" glow. If you have space, a small, gentle fan can give your flames a constant rustling motion, mimicking the effect of real flames. If you can, have the fan blow up directly behind the fire; otherwise, set the fan at its lowest setting a few feet behind the fire. The flames shouldn't drastically bend or sway - you're looking for a gentle, subtle effect that's not too distracting.

Use a shovel or gardening trowel to prepare your holes for planting. Each hole (for a single plant or hibiscus seed) should be as deep as the roots go, and at least twice, if not three times, as wide. The loose soil around the plant will allow for better drainage, and should not be tamped down. Plant each hibiscus plant at least 2–3 feet (0.6–0.9 m) away from each other. In cold climates, plant the bulbs deeper than you normally would. In warm and soggy climates, plant the bulbs closer to the surface. Carefully place each hibiscus plant into its own individual hole, being careful not to damage the root ball. Refill the hole with soil, going only as high as the base of the stem. Covering up the stems with soil could kill the plant over time. Give your hibiscus a heavy watering two to three times in a row immediately after planting to help reduce the risk of transplant shock. Try to keep your hibiscus plants moist, but not soaking wet. Make sure that the soil your hibiscus are in is damp at all times, as when it dries out, it can cause wilting and heat stroke in the plants. In the winter when the plant is dormant, only water when the soil gets very dried out. Make sure that you wait one to two weeks before you fertilize the plants. It may be beneficial to add a layer of mulch to your hibiscus garden, as this will block out weeds and trap in moisture. Pull out any weeds on sight, so that your hibiscus are not forced to compete for space and nutrients. Tropical hibiscus tend to have issues with pest on occasion, more so than hardy varieties. If you notice spotting or decaying leaves, try using an organic insecticide to kill off any disease or bugs that are harming the hibiscus. . Although pruning sounds counterintuitive, it actually helps to promote new growth and causes more blossoms to appear. There are several methods of pruning, but they all work by cutting branches just above a node (leaf joint) at an angle away from the center of the bush. This will send a signal to the plant to grow more branches at this...

Use a shovel or similar tool to clear away snow that surrounds the car. Try to make it so you can see all the tires. If there is ice be aware of it.   In very heavy and/or deep snow, you may have to prioritize your efforts. Be sure to dig out tires and enough so you can get in the car. You may not have to remove ice that is textured. Ice that is rough will add traction, so usually not worth removing. After you’ve dug out your car, make sure that the tailpipe is free of snow. While you may have removed the snow from around it, make sure the tailpipe itself is clear and doesn’t get buried again. This is important, as the exhaust could build up in the car if the tailpipe isn’t clear. Pour a gritty substance in front, behind, and on the sides of your tires. Gritty substances will help your tires gain traction when you try to back up or move forward. Some substances you can pour include:  Salt, which will not only help tires gain traction, but will melt the ice and snow underneath them. Kitty litter. Car mats, welcome mats, or carpet squares. Sand. If gritty materials don’t work, look for other materials that could help your tires gain traction. This includes pieces of plywood, ridged sheet metal, or similar items. Then, place the items in front of or behind your tires so you can back or drive onto them and then out of the snow. If you have snow chains, you should put them on.

Use a shovel to dig a hole twice as wide as the container currently holding the pyracantha plant. The hole should be approximately the same depth as the container. Tip the container holding the pyracantha on its side. Glide a shovel or trowel around the perimeter of the container to loosen root mass and soil, then gently wedge the plant out by applying pressure from the bottom.  When removing a plant from a disposable plastic container, you can usually press on the sides of the container to ease the plant out. If removing the plant from a firmer container, slide the trowel down along one side of the container. Once it is as deep as possible, tilt the handle of the trowel back. The leverage should help pry the root ball out. Place the pyracantha in the center of the planting hole. Fill the rest of the hole in with soil. Make sure that the shrub is planted to the same depth as it was in its previous container. If you surround the stem with too much soil, it can weaken or kill the plant. Sprinkle a handful of bone meal onto the soil around the base of the plant. Use your hands or a small garden fork to gently work it into the soil. Bone meal is an organic fertilizer that adds phosphorus to the soil. It can encourage root development and make it easier for the plant to establish itself. If you want to use another fertilizer, make sure that you choose one that provides a high dosage of phosphorus. If you choose to plant multiple pyracantha shrubs, you should space each shrub 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm ) apart. Note that if you choose to plant multiple rows to create a thicker hedge, each row should be 28 to 40 inches (70 to 100 cm) apart. Water the pyracantha regularly for the first month after transplanting it. It will need more water than usual as it establishes itself in the garden soil.  The soil should receive a little water each day. If the weather forecast does not predict any rain for the day, lightly water the soil in the morning. The soil shouldn't be so soaked that puddles begin to form, but it is...

Use a slip knot to tie the yarn onto the crochet hook. Slide the hook into the first stitch you plan to work with for your design.  More specifically, insert the hook through the back horizontal bar of the stitch you're working over. If you're familiar with standard single crochet, this back horizontal bar will be treated as the top portion of the stitch you'd usually work with. Yarn over the tip of the hook from back to front while the hook is still behind the overall piece. Pull the hook and this yarn-over back to the front of the piece, creating a loop in the process. There should be two loops on your hook after this step. Wrap the yarn over the tip of the hook again, working from back to front. Grab the previous yarn-over with the hooked tip and carefully pull it through both loops on the hook.  This completes one surface single crochet. Note that there should be one loop left on your hook when you complete the stitch. Work as many single surface crochet stitches as needed to complete the desired surface pattern. You will essentially be working a row of standard single crochet. Instead of inserting the hook through the next stitch in the row, though, you'll be inserting the hook through the next stitch of the piece you're decorating. When you reach the end of the pattern, cut the yarn, leaving a 4-inch (10-cm) tail. Grab this tail with your crochet hook and pull it through the final loop on your hook.  This should get rid of the last loop on your hook and tie off your project. Note that you should also weave in the loose tail end to hide it and help prevent the stitches from unraveling.

Use a small amount at a time so your carpet doesn’t get soaking wet. Slowly pour the club soda over the entire stain so it bubbles and soaks into your carpet. Once the stain is covered with club soda, let it sit for about 10-15 minutes so it can penetrate the pad underneath.  You can buy club soda from any grocery store. Club soda works best for fresh urine stains. After 10-15 minutes has passed, set a cleaning rag on top of the stain and press firmly onto it to lift out the soda. If the cloth gets too wet, wring it out or use another to lift the odor out. Work your way over the entire stain until most of the soda is lifted up. Don’t wipe back and forth over the stain or else the urine smell will work back into the carpet. Cover the stain with 2 layers of paper towels and pat it dry. Push down hard with your hand to absorb any club soda that’s deep within the carpet pad. Keep pressing down across the entirety of the stain until you can’t pull up any more liquid. Using club soda will remove the odor, but you may have a stronger smell when you first remove it. Pick your favorite scent of air freshener or essential oil and spray it on your carpet to cover up any residual odor that the soda brought up. Spritz enough to mask the smell and then check your carpet in a few hours to see if you can still smell the urine.  Look for air fresheners that eliminate odors rather than cover them up since they kill odor-causing bacteria. If you still smell urine, you may need to try a stronger cleaning method.

Use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to remove dust, dirt, grease, and wax from the faux leather. Dampen a cotton ball and wipe the entire surface of the material. A clean surface, free from dirt and grease, will allow the paint to strongly adhere to the faux leather. Prepare a paint palette so you can easily and efficiently access your desired paint colors as you work. You can buy a wooden or plastic artist’s palette at an arts and crafts store, or you can use a sheet of aluminum foil, a newspaper, or a magazine to house your paint. Squeeze your desired paint colors onto your paint palette and add a few drops of acetone to the paint if you are working with acrylics. The acetone will thin the paint, making it smooth and easier to work with. Gently mix the paint and the acetone together with a small paintbrush. Be sure to only add a few drops or up to a teaspoon of acetone to your paint so that the paint does not become too watery.  Acrylic paint can dry quickly, so do not squeeze too much paint onto your palette at once. Gradually add a few additional drops of acetone if the paint is too thick. If you are painting a large surface in a uniform color, you will want to apply an even base coat of paint to the surface. Use the paint you selected for your project and apply it to the surface. This is ideal if you are working with furniture or clothing. Lightly press the sponge into the paint from your paint palette. Use long, vertical strokes to distribute the paint across the faux leather surface. Acrylic paint can dry rapidly, so you will need to work quickly if you are working with this medium. Focus on creating long strokes when painting a large surface to avoid creating streaks. If you are working on upholstery, plan to paint only one side at a time. Before adding additional coats, the paint will need to dry completely. Place the item in a safe place where it won’t be disturbed, damaged, or moved. Wait for about 15 to 20 minutes for the coat to dry completely. After the first coat of paint has thoroughly...

Use a small shovel or your hands to dig a hole for your fig tree. Make the hole just large enough for the root ball to fit, and plant the tree at the same level it was growing in the container. Remove the plant from the container and carefully put it on its side. Use a pair of gardening shears to trim off the excess roots around the edges, as these reduce fruit production. Then, place the root ball in the hole and spread the roots carefully away from the trunk. Fill in the areas beneath and around the tree with soil, and pat the soil so it is even and firm. To help your newly planted tree to settle, give them a heavy watering for a few days. However, in general figs don’t like a ton of water, so give your tree a moderate amount of water 1-2 times a week after planting. If you planted your fig tree outside, it is important that you maintain the soil and plot that the plant is growing in. Pull any weeds that you see, and replenish the soil with fertilizer every 4-5 weeks. Additionally, apply between 4 and 6 inches of mulch around the trunk of the tree, covering the soil evenly.  Keep in mind that trees planted in containers are more dependent on fertilizer, and they need to be fertilized once per month. Mulching in the summer will preserve moisture. Mulching in the winter will protect the figs from cold and frost. Prune your fig tree in the summer of the second year, as it is not necessary to prune them during their first year of growth. Prune the branches down to 4 strong shoots, which will lead in the production of fruit. After the tree matures, prune back every spring before the figs begin to grow. Harvest figs from the tree when they are completely ripe, as they will not continue to ripen after picking (like peaches). A ripe fig will be a little bit soft, and curved at the neck. The color of a ripe fig will vary depending on the variety you have, as figs come in many different colors. Remove the fruit from the tree gently to avoid bruising the fig. Wear gloves when picking your figs, as the sap from the...

Use a small, clean bowl filled with warm water and soak each hand for 3-5 minutes. This will soften your nail bed and make clipping and filing easier for you. The most common nail shapes are square, oval and squoval (a combination of a square and oval – essentially a square shape with rounded edges), but choose the shape that works best for you. If you aren’t sure which shape to choose, check out the shape of your cuticles and then shape your nails similarly.  Square nail shapes are the most durable because they span the entire width of the nail bed. Aesthetically they look best on long fingers with wide nail beds, but this shape is popular in general. The next best option is squoval, as far as sturdiness is concerned. This shape looks great on any hand. There are many types of nail files, including glass files, emery boards and metals files. For shaping the nails, opt for a glass file. The coarser grit allows for more control when shaping. If you need to remove a significant amount of length before you shape your nails, use nail clippers to carefully clip your nails to be slightly longer than your desired length and use a file to eliminate the rest while shaping. Filing back and forth can weaken your nails. Instead use smooth strokes in one direction when filing, starting with one side and then moving on to the other. Be sure to use your file to smooth away any rough edges after shaping your nails. Rough edges can cause snags and leaving behind any sharp points can be dangerous. This will smooth away any dents, ridges and leftover nail polish from your nail. Buff the entire nail but also the tips of your nails, which will smooth away any residual ridges after filing.

Use a soft nylon broom to brush off the stones. This removes dirt and debris, along with helping dislodge weeds that may be growing between the stones. Try doing this at least once a week. Polymeric sand can be used between the stones to help maintain them throughout the season. Sand can keep weeds from growing between the stones, so you don’t have to keep pulling them up every month. You can buy polymeric sand at home improvement stores. Sand can also help bugs from raising between the stones and making their way through the patio to your house. Surface protector can help keep moss and dirt from collecting on surfaces during the winter months. You can also treat your stone patio with surface protector at the beginning of the season to help keep dirt off the stone.  You mix this solution with water and spray it on the stone. Follow the directions on the bottle to mix the proper ratio of solution to water. This should be done every four months. You can find patio and stone surface protector solution at home improvement stores. Fill a spray bottle with distilled white vinegar. Add one teaspoon of dish soap to the vinegar. Stir the solution to mix the ingredients. Aim the nozzle at the weeds between the stones and cover them in the vinegar spray. Use on sunny dry days. Rain, cool, cloudy days don’t yield the same results.

Use a soft, lint-free cloth to go over all of your furniture before you wipe it down. This will lift any dust and other small particles that might otherwise get ingrained into your furniture when washing. Feather dusters aren’t as effective for furniture because a feather duster won’t lift any particles. Some feather dusters also have sharp quills which could scratch your furniture. Unless you know for sure what kind of finish your furniture is, paint, stain, or another treatment, it’s best to start with the least harmful cleaning products on a small area. Grab a cotton ball or soft cloth. Moisten your cotton ball or cloth with warm water and add a drop of dish soap or dishwashing detergent. Start wiping an inconspicuous area of your wooden furniture like the inside of a leg.  Right now, you want to test to see if the detergent is going to be harmful to your wood furniture. Let the treated area sit for a minute or so and look for any discoloration. If you don’t notice any unwanted change, your solution is safe. If you do notice a change, then continue with only warm water and a damp cloth. If you didn’t notice a change when you tested your furniture. You can mix water and dish soap in a bucket. Mix 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm water and 1/2 cup of liquid dish detergent. You want to add enough soap so your water is soapy. Start wiping down your furniture with a damp cloth that you dipped in your solution.  Be careful not to soak the wood. Keep your cloth or sponge damp but not soaking wet. Too much water will ruin the wood. You can also use mineral oil to clean your wood in addition to or as a substitution to detergent. After you’ve thoroughly wiped down your wood, protect it by applying a wax or finish. You can find a variety of wood-specific sprays and polishes at any home goods store or grocery store. Look for sprays that contain silicone oil for protection. For waxing, use only a soft cotton cloth or wax brush. Apply the wax a little at a time and rub it into the wood in a circular motion.  Once the wax begins...

Use a soil test to determine the best way to treat your soil. Cooperative Extension Services or soil testing laboratories can analyze your soil. You can find them through a local state university. A commercial testing kit can also be used to test your soil. Take multiple samples from different locations around the lawn and at different depths of the soil, near the surface and 8 to 10 inches (20–25cm) or more in depth. Label each one clearly. Do this once the old lawn has been removed by your selected process. This is a nice opportunity to fix existing grade problems:  The ground should slope away from your house in all directions. It should drop about 2 ½ inches every 10 feet (3 m). Use a landscaping rake if the grading adjustments are minor. Water the area and fill in puddled areas with soil from the high spots on your lawn. The finished grade should be at the level of surrounding areas  like a patio or sidewalk. If you’re adding amendments to the soil than adjust the grading depth to about 2 inches (5 cm) lower than the fixed surfaces (such as a patio) bordering your new lawn. Now that you’re starting from scratch, take advantage of your access to the soil of your lawn by preparing it for “hosting” grass seeds.  Add organic matter, lime, sulfur or fertilizer to serve as amendments for the site of your new lawn.  Don’t cultivate the soil it too finely. You’ll want to avoid the soil crusting into a hard surface which prevents seeds from emerging.  Aim for soil that isn’t dense and will allow seeds to grow. Lawns started from seed are best planted in the early fall or in the spring after frost season. Sow the seed evenly from a spreader, walking at a slow, steady pace and allowing a 6 inch to 1 foot (0.30 m) overlap of seeds. Work the seed gently into the ground afterward using an inverted plastic rake, and apply a thin topdressing of soil to ensure good soil contact and moisture retention.  Select the seed that works best for your lawn environment. Your seed-seller can make a recommendation. Use a...

Use a spade to dig a hole that is roughly twice the diameter and just as deep as the current pot. Then, mix that removed soil in with potting soil to create roughly a 50-50 mixture. Gently dig around the edges of the plant in the pot and turn it upside down until it loosens. Position this plant in the newly dug out hole in the soil. Look for a potting soil that is specifically made for plants in an open-soil garden. This type of soil will have a higher dirt density, as compared to standard potting soil. Bamboo does best in soil that is moist, but well drained. If water is sitting on the surface of the dirt, then your bamboo may begin to rot. You can test the drainage of the soil beforehand by observing how it looks after a rain shower. If the water doesn't fully drain off and stays on the soil's surface, then it's probably not the best place to plant. Some pests, such as aphids, are easily visible on bamboo. Simply pluck these tiny, green insects off the plant with your fingers and apply a pesticide to keep them from coming back. Other pests, such as mealybugs, are resistant to pesticides. In these situations, it's often best to simply spray the pests off the plants with a steady stream of water. Before you water your bamboo, use your hand to gently brush away any dead sticks or leaves on the top of the soil. These pieces of debris can spread dangerous fungi to your plant, which can cause root rot. Also, avoid over-watering your plants, as fungi grow best in saturated soil. If your plant begins to bend at the stem and feels overly moist to the touch, then it may be suffering from rot. Dig up this plant in order to prevent the spread of the fungi.

Use a spice grinder to grind the toasted sesame seeds into a fine powder. There should be no solid seeds left when done. If you do not have a spice grinder, consider using a coffee grinder or mortal and pestle, instead. In a small bowl, whisk together the ground sesame seeds, dashi, soy sauce, sugar, sake, rice vinegar, and black pepper until the mixture is evenly blended.  For this sauce, you could pulse the ingredients together using a blender instead of whisking by hand, if desired. Doing so can help combine the solid ingredients—the ground sesame seeds, the sugar, and the black pepper—more thoroughly. Note that this is the other common sauce served with shabu shabu, and it, too, can be purchased commercially to save time. This sauce will end up being light brown. Transfer the sauce to a second shallow serving dish.  The bowl needs to be shallow so that you can dip food into the sauce without difficulty. Do not combine the sesame sauce and ponzu sauce. The two must be kept in separate dishes. The sauce can be served without any garnishes, but garnishes can add color and an extra splash of taste. Thinly sliced green onions, a small sprinkle of chopped garlic, and a dash of ground red pepper are good choices for sesame sauce.  Add the garnishes to taste. Keep in mind that they should accent the sauce, not overwhelm it or mask it. Set the sesame sauce aside until you are ready to serve the shabu shabu.

Use a spoolie brush to brush up your eyebrows. Note the natural shape of your brows and look for any spots where your brows are sparse or uneven.   Pluck or wax any hairs that you don’t want. Trim the top of your brows if necessary. Line a thin makeup brush up along the side of your nose. The brush will hit your brow where it should start. Next, keep the brush next to your nose and move it at a 45° angle to the outer corner of your eye. This is where your brow naturally ends. The strokes should mimic the growth of your brow hairs. Match the color of your pencil to the color of your brows. Start drawing in the inner corners of your eyes. Slowly work your way out to the ends of your brow, lightly drawing strokes in the sparse spots. With an angled brush, comb brow powder or eyeshadow through your brows to better fill them in. Use very little powder where your brows start, and add more towards the end of your brows. Try brushing the powder lightly back and forth for good coverage. This will also better define your arch.  Blend the color and soften any sharp lines with by brushing your brows with your spoolie brush. Focus on really diffusing the color near the beginning of your brow. To do this, wipe excess powder off the spoolie brush and use the clean brush to soften and blend. Use your fingers or a cotton swab to wipe away any color that’s outside your brow lines. Make the brows look sharp and clean by brushing translucent powder around the edges of your brows. Or you can clean them up by brushing color-correcting concealer around the perimeter of your brows. Lightly cover your brows with clear gel or clear mascara to help maintain your look all day.

Use a spray bottle from a department store or drug store. Add one cup of water to the spray bottle. Make sure the bottle is big enough. As you'll be adding dye, leave a little headspace when you're done adding water. Use a fabric paint in your chosen color. Add three tablespoons of the paint to your spray bottle. If you want a less vibrant color, however, experiment with adding less paint. Only adding one to two tablespoons of fabric paint will create a pastel shade. Give the bottle a good shake. For about 30 to 60 seconds, shake the bottle to mix the paint and water. Keep shaking until you have a uniform mixture that's one solid color. Make sure the cap is on tight before you begin shaking. You do not want to end up getting dye on your clothing or hands.

Use a staple puller or flathead screwdriver to remove the staples from the ends of the rails. Cut the old felt along the top of the rail if it does not come off immediately. Each rail has a thin wooden "featherstrip" running alongside it, which is typically not attached by any adhesive or nails. If it won't come up easily, Use a thin flathead screwdriver to pry it up without breaking it. Unlike the table top, this felt should be "face side" down. Keep an overhang of at least 4 inches (10 cm) on each end, and 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) over the feather strip  groove. Lay the featherstrip back in position, but do not press it down. Have an assistant stretch the felt tightly between the center and one end of the railing. Place a tapping block over the featherstrip, then use a hammer to gently tap the block, pushing the featherstrip down into the stretched portion of the felt, but stop about 2 inches (5 cm) from the end, where the corner pocket will be located. Stretch the other half of the felt, and repeat this process for the remaining length of the featherstrip, again stopping 2 inches (5 cm) away from the other end. Do not strike the featherstrip directly, or you may dent the table. Pull the felt at the ends of the table toward the rubber cushion, then tap in the remaining portion of the featherstrip until it is firmly in place. Trim and fold the felt as necessary to remove excess material and cover the ends of the cushion. Once all your rails are complete, bolt them to the table again. If you're having a hard time finding where the bolts should go, you can push a screwdriver through the bolt holes as guidance. Never try to cut holes in the playing surface from the top of the table, as you may cut in the wrong place.

Use a stiff, plain toothbrush (preferably just bristles no gum massagers or other plastic parts) to brush trapped lint out of the fastener. Lay the fastener flat, and apply pressure in short, hard strokes with the bristles from one end of the fastener to the other. Pick any lint that comes to the top of the fastener out with your fingers. Use the edge of the tape dispenser that you'd normally use to cut the tape to scrape the fastener clean. Lay the fastener flat, and use the teeth of the tape dispenser to rake it in short firm strokes from one end to the other. Pick any lint that comes to the top of the fastener out with your fingers. For lint that is deeply embedded in the hooks of the fastener, use a pair of needle-nose tweezers to pick it out. Lay the fastener flat, holding at both ends. Then, use the tips of the tweezers to tease out the debris.

Use a strainer with small to medium-sized gaps. Fine gaps will allow you to separate as much of the solid from the liquid as possible, but they may make the process go slower. Medium gaps offer a nice balance between speed and quality. The bowl should have a wide enough opening to catch any liquid that falls from the strainer. If possible, select a bowl that the strainer can rest on in order to free up both hands. You should see juice running through the strainer and into the bowl. Keep pressing until you are unable to produce any more juice. Garlic pulp can be used to flavor stews, soups, stir-frys, and a number of other recipes. The filter should be secured with a rubber band so that it rests loosely over the bowl, but will not fall inside. Running the juice through a coffee filter will create an even purer product. You can also use your coffee maker, but be aware of the fact that garlic has a potent odor that may linger even after you clean your machine. As a result, any coffee you prepare in the machine afterward may have a hint of garlic flavor. If you pour too quickly, you may spill some. Continue pouring until all of the juice is strained into the bowl. Keep it in a glass bowl to prevent the odor from contaminating other foods, as well as to prevent any other flavors from contaminating the garlic juice.

Use a sturdier brush to get rid of the more obvious dirt on your goat. Next, use a soft brush (curry comb) to comb through your goat's hair. Also, feel for bumps on your goat as you brush, as those could indicate infections or a cut or scratch. Your goat will not likely need clipping unless you plan to show her. Most of the time, brushing will be sufficient for your goat. To bathe the goat, slightly warm up the water so it's not cold. Lather the goat up with a shampoo meant for animals or specifically for goats. Use a washing mitt to help along the process. Rinse off the soap. It makes it easier if your goat has a collar on because it is easier for you to hold on to her. Pygmy goats need vitamin A in their diets to keep up their health. Mostly, they can get this vitamin from green hay or from grazing. However, if you are not supplying either of these, try adding some corn to their diet. Just like in humans, vitamin D helps goats absorb calcium, which maintains bone health. If your goats are outside most of the time, they will absorb vitamin D from the sun. However, if they don't get much sunlight, feed them either sun-cured hay (not heat-cured) or irradiated yeast. If your goats are exclusively pasture-fed (rather than alfalfa- and grain-fed), you should add a mix of iodized salt, limestone (ground), and animal bones (steamed and ground). Essentially, you can put this mixture out in its own bucket and let the goats eat it as needed. Selenium is an essential nutrient, but it is especially important if white muscle disease is prevalent in your area, as selenium protects against this disease. When kids are born, you should provide a supplement of this nutrient by needle. This disease calcifies the muscles, making them whitish, which is where the disease gets its name. Your goat will need to be vaccinated against enterotoxemia and tetanus, at the very least.  You can usually buy these at local feed stores and give them yourself. You may also want to ask your vet about rabies shots. You may also want a clostridium...

Use a table, the floor, or any other flat surface with enough room to fold and lay the T-shirt face down. A smooth surface will make it easier for you to fold your shirt without wrinkles. Keep the shirt face down when you fold it so any logo or image on the front will be visible when it’s folded. When you’re finished folding your T-shirts, arrange them in your drawer so the collar is standing up. Stack multiple T-shirts so they support each other and stand upright in your drawer or container. Storing your shirts vertically will allow you to utilize your storage space more efficiently.

Use a tape measure to determine the length, width, and depth of the canvas. Write the measurements down and keep them handy; this will help when you're shopping for a frame.  Most tape measures have markings in 1/16 increments, so pay careful attention when measuring. Being off by even 1/8 of an inch can mean buying the wrong frame size. Double check the measurements to make sure they are exact. Frames are just as varied as the canvases they hold, so select a frame based on how you want the finished product to look. Some contrast between the canvas and the frame is pleasing to the eye.  Avoid frames that are very similar in color to the canvas.  Contrast the style of the canvas with the style of the frame.  Simple paintings will look good with ornate frames, and edgy modern art will look good in plainer frames. In general, less is more. Don't choose a frame that detracts from what is on the canvas. Now that you have the canvas's measurements and know what style of frame you want, you can shop for a frame. Find one that is the same length, width, and depth of your canvas.  The standard frame sizes are 8×10, 11×14, 16×20, 18×24, 20×24, 24×30, and 30×40, but some stores will have other sizes like 10×20. If you're shopping in-store, call the store to see if they carry the size you're looking for. This will save you from making multiple trips to different stores. Keep a list of what prices stores offer. This will help you find the best deal. Shopping online for a frame is another good option. Websites will have the exact dimensions of the frames they sell online. These usually come in packs of four and can easily be found in a store or online. One pack of four is enough to frame one canvas.  Usually, the canvas clips do not require screws. The types of canvas clips that require screws come in seven sizes: 1/8, ¼, 3/8, ½, ¾, 1, 1 ¼.  Measure the frame back to the back of the stretcher bar to find out which size you need.
