Problem: Article: Usually, you will file a small claims case at the court that is nearest to you. However, there are rules that may control where you are allowed to file. Your case must generally be filed in the county where one or more of the following is true: the county where the defendant resides the county where the debt was incurred the county where the business involved is located the county where the damage happened the county where the goods involved are permanently kept A complaint is the statement in which you state your case and explain why you believe the other party owes you money, and how much you believe you are owed. You may need to write out the claim yourself, although many small claims courts simply have a form for you to complete. The cost of filing a claim in small claims court ranges from around $15 to $200. Check with the court clerk to find out what form of payment (cash, check credit) is required.. If you have any evidence to support your claim for money owed, such as a signed contract or receipt for services, you should attach that and file it with your complaint. When you file your complaint, the clerk may notify you of a date for a hearing. Alternatively, some courts will provide notice of a date at some point in the future by mail to both parties. You should check with the court clerk so that you understand the system in your court. If you are in a court in which it is your duty to serve the defendant with the complaint and hearing notice, you will need to make sure to do this right away. There are different methods for making service of a complaint and hearing notice. You will need to ask the clerk, or read the court rules, to find out the required system in your court. One method is to have someone who is over 18 years old and who is not a party to the case deliver the papers personally to the defendant. This may be a friend or relative, or anyone you choose. Another alternative is to hire a professional process server, sheriff or constable to serve the papers. This is a good idea if you think the defendant might try to avoid the service. A final option is to have the county clerk serve the papers by mail. In some courts, this may not be an available option. You will have to ask the clerk. When you file the complaint, you must serve the defendant right away. In many courts, you must provide at least a certain number of days' notice before the court date. For example, in California, you must serve the court papers at least 15 days in advance of the court date. If the defendant is a person, business, or public entity outside of the county, you have 20 days. If there are multiple defendants, then the rules of service apply to all defendants.
Summary: Decide where you will file your complaint. Draft your complaint. Get a hearing date. Serve the defendant with the complaint and hearing notice.

Problem: Article: Place three fingers from one hand on the top three holes and three fingers from the other hand on the bottom three holes. Blow over the flute as you would a soda pop bottle, pursing your lips and directing air into the mouth opening. If you are not getting any sound, try pursing your lips even tighter so that the air hole is smaller. Since the dizi is symmetrical, it can be held in either horizontal direction, and can be played easily by a left-handed person as by a right-handed person. A dizi can emit different tones depending on temperature and humidity, so oftentimes winter is a less desirable season to play certain dizis. Watch the shape that your mouth makes as you are playing. Take note of how your mouth looks when you are able to make noise with the flute. There are many different resources online that give instruction on how to play the dizi. Tim Liu is one of the most well-known dizi instructors, although there are a number of others as well., Once you have mastered how to play a dizi, you can start to experiment with other techniques, such as sliding and popping notes, creating two tones simultaneously, using different tonguing techniques, using circular breathing, and so on, which can be accomplished by changing the embouchure and airflow. These are difficult to achieve, so a beginner should certainly not expect to be an expert player immediately. Dizi musicians spend decades perfecting their techniques. Master dizi players typically use several dizis to be able to play in a range of keys.
Summary: Hold the flute horizontal to your body and place your lips next to the mouth opening. Consider the season and temperature when you play. Practice in front of a mirror. Consult instructions and courses online. Learn advanced techniques.

Problem: Article: Backing into a parking space is always the safest method of parking. When you back into a parking space, you have the opportunity to assess the open spot as you drive past it. This allows you to see if there are any obstructions within the spot or if vehicles are parked too close to the spot's boundary lines. Lastly, when it is time to leave, you can pull out of the spot rather than backing out of the spot. As you search for an open spot, your SUV should remain approximately 7 to 8 feet away from parked vehicles. When you see an open spot, turn on your turn signal to notify other drivers of your intention to park. As you drive past the spot, examine the parking space. If the space is safe and large enough for your SUV to fit within, drive two to three spaces beyond the intended bay. SUVs come in a variety of sizes. Adjust the distance away from the space and the parked cars as needed. Before you back into the spot, you must make sure your surroundings are clear. Use your mirrors and windows to look around your SUV. Wait for any pedestrians, cyclists, or oncoming vehicles to pass you. If there is a vehicle behind your car, make sure you can safely maneuver into the space. If the other driver is not paying attention, find a different parking spot. Once your surroundings are clear, prepare to back into the space. Put your SUV in reverse. Turn in your seat to look out the back window and check your mirrors. If your surroundings are still clear, begin to drive your SUV backwards slowly while turning the wheel fully towards the direction of the space. Turn the wheel fully to the right if the space is on your right; turn the wheel fully to the left if the space is on your left. As move backwards, the lines of the open parking space will appear in your side mirrors. Use the lines to guide you into the space. The line nearest you is "Line A" and the line furthest from you is "Line B." Repeatedly glance at the side mirror closest to the space until Line A appears in it. As the SUV rounds into the space, Line B will appear in the other side mirror. Continue to check your side mirrors to monitor your distance from each line. You should be equidistant from each line. The slower you execute this, the easier and safer the process will be. When Line A and Line B appear parallel in your side mirrors, pause for a moment. Straighten your wheel by turning it 1 times. Once your tires are straight, continue to back into the space until your rear bumper nears the concrete barrier or the car behind you. Put the vehicle in park, exit the SUV, and lock it. If your SUV is too close to another car or crooked, correct the parking job before exiting your vehicle. Leaving your vehicle too close to another car may result in damages. Shift your car from reverse to drive. Look to your right and left to check for pedestrians and other cars. Once it is clear, pull forward away from the object your SUV is too close to. Continue to move forward until your SUV is centered and straight. Turn the wheel so that your tires are straight. Shift your SUV into reverse. Use your rearview mirror as you drive backwards into the space. Put your vehicle in park and exit the SUV.
Summary:
Locate an open space and drive two to three spaces beyond the intended parking spot. Examine your surroundings for pedestrians and other vehicles. Put your car in reverse and slowly move backwards as you turn the wheel. Straighten the wheel and back into the spot. Straighten your SUV if needed.
