Problem: Article: Since the cyanuric acid needs to be balanced with the other chemicals in your pool, it's important to check this balance every week. For example, you might find that while cyanuric acid levels are fine, your chlorine level is off. If your outdoor pool doesn't have a cover and there's a lot of rainfall, the cyanuric acid may become diluted and ineffective. Remember to check the cyanuric acid levels if the pool's water becomes diluted. You can test the cyanuric acid levels as often as you like. If you believe the balance of your pool is off, test the cyanuric acid levels again even if it hasn't been a week since the last test. Buy strips that are chemically formulated to detect cyanuric acid. Keep in mind that many basic kits only test for chlorine and pH levels so you may need to buy a more advanced kit. To use a strip, dip it in the water for about 30 seconds and compare the color on the strip to the color on the chart that came with the strips. This will tell you the cyanuric acid level in the water. Purchase test strips online or from your local pool supply store. Some kits will come with a small container for gathering a water sample. Add the powdered solution and swirl the container so the water dissolves the solution. Wait 1 to 3 minutes and fill a sample cell with some untested pool water. Once the time is up, fill another sample cell with some of the tested pool water. You'll now be able to compare the results to an untested sample. Use the chart that came with the test kit to determine the cyanuric acid level in your pool. If you don't want to test the water yourself, fill a container with water and take it to your local pool supply store where they can test it for you. You'll need to gather about 2 tablespoons (30ml). The cyanuric acid in your pool should be between 30 and 50 ppm, although some find it more effective closer to 80 ppm. Keep in mind that the higher your cyanuric acid levels, the weaker your chlorine becomes. The World Health Organization recommends that cyanuric acid levels don't exceed 100 ppm.
Summary: Plan on testing the water at least once a week. Retest the water after it's been diluted. Use test strips. Consider using a liquid turbidity test kit. Determine if you need to add cyanuric acid to your pool.

Problem: Article: You can do this stretch at home or at a gymjust make sure that the wall you're leaning against is sturdy enough to support your full weight. Pick up one foot at a time and shuffle it forward until both feet are roughly 24 inches (61cm) in front of you. Slide your hips down the wall and bend your knees until your knees are directly over your feet. When standing in this position, your knees will be bent at a 45 angle. Begin by lifting your right foot from the ground. If necessary, use your hands to place it over your left knee. Lean back against the wall to keep your balance. Keep your right ankle over your left knee, and slowly lean forward. Keep your rear against the wall while you're leaning, and tense your stomach muscles as if you were trying to touch the bottom of your ribs to your backbone. Stop leaning when you feel the stretch in your buttocks and piriformis muscle. Hold the stretch for 30-60 seconds. Pick up your left ankle and place it over your right knee. As before, lean your torso forward to stretch out your piriformis muscle. Hold the stretch for 30-60 seconds. If you feel any pain or discomfort, stop stretching.
Summary: Stand with your back against a wall. Move your feet forward 2 feet (0.61m) and align your knees over them. Place your right ankle over your left knee. Squat down and clench your ab muscles while leaning forward. Repeat the stretch with your other leg.

Problem: Article: After 3 weeks of chilling and fermenting, remove the fermenter from the refrigerator and take off the lid. Line a large fine-mesh strainer with cheesecloth, and place the strainer over a large food-grade bucket. Strain the rice mixture through the cheesecloth to separate the rice and liquid. Gently twist the cheesecloth around the rice to remove as much liquid as possible. You'll probably have to strain the mixture in small batches. Pour the strained liquid from the bucket and into a clean carboy. If you don't have a carboy, clean the fermentation bucket with hot, soapy water, and pour the liquid back into the bucket. At this point, the liquid will look milky and slightly white. Place an airlock in the carboy, and then transfer the carboy to the refrigerator. Over the next 7 days, heavier particles in the sake will start to settle to the bottom, leaving a sediment down below and a clear liquid on top. After a week, when the sediment has settled on the bottom and the liquid on top is clear, you can bottle the sake in individual bottles. Place your sterilized bottles on the counter and place a funnel in the mouth of the first bottle. Pour the sake into the bottle carefully and slowly to avoid disturbing the sediment on the bottom. Repeat until all your bottles have been filled. Secure the caps on the bottle. You can also use a siphon to fill your bottles if you have one. Unpasteurized sake should be stored in the refrigerator, or in a cold cellar that stays between 33 to 40F (1 to 4C). The sake should be consumed within a month. After opening a bottle, drink the sake within a couple of days.
Summary: Strain the mixture. Transfer the liquid to a carboy. Place the carboy in the fridge leave it for 1 week. Transfer the liquid to individual bottles. Store the sake in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Problem: Article: Wax can be bought at auto-part stores or wherever else you may have found your rim cleaner. Look for a wax jelly such as carnauba wax. Applying the wax after each cleaning protects your wheels from brake dust and makes future cleanings easier. Dip a clean cloth into the product. You may also do this with a wheel wash mitt, which can make reaching behind the rim simpler. Spread the wax over each rim. Don't forget to reach behind the rims. Get the front and back of each spoke along with the faces. Also cover the outside edges and the spaces between the spokes. Let the wax rest for three minutes. Use a clean cloth to go back over the rim. The wax should have settled onto the rims, leaving a protective coating.
Summary:
Get a rim waxing product. Spread the wax on a cloth. Rub the wax into the rims. Remove excess wax with a microfiber cloth.
