Q: The first pleat will help center the material, so it will end up being a little different from the other pleats. Fold roughly 6 inches (15.25 cm) of material underneath itself at the right side of the material. Pin in place at the waist. On the left side of the material, make a pleat that encompasses two setts. Secure with a safety pin at the waist. On a piece of cardboard or durable cardstock, mark the width of one sett. Divide this marked area into three to eight equal parts. Use your best judgment to determine how many parts to divide the pattern into. The center section will peek through the pleat, so your center section should include an appealing part of the pattern. Lay your cardboard guide above each sett as you fold it. Overlay the folded edge of each pleat over the part of the pattern that matches it in the set next to it. Secure in place with a safety pin. The cardboard guide should give you an idea of where to fold your first few pleats. After you begin folding, however, you may find that you do not need the guide since it should become a simple matter of matching the patterns together. Use a running stitch to catch the edge of each pleat, holding it in place at the bottom of the material. You should do two rows of basting. The first running stitch should be about 1/4 of the length up from the bottom of the material, and the second should be about 1/2 of the length of from the bottom. Use an iron with a steam setting to press the pleats in place, making them more durable and helping the pleats keep their form. Iron along each folded edge of each pleat. If your iron does not use steam, you can moisten a thin pressing cloth and place it over the pleats. Place this pressing cloth in between the iron and the material of your kilt and steam-press the pleats this way. Sew across the entire width of pleats and down each pleat along the fold. Sew a straight stitch with your sewing machine across the top of your pleats, roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the upper edge. Sew a straight stitch with your sewing machine across the folded, ironed vertical edge of each pleat. Only sew about 4 inches (10 cm) of material. Do not sew all the way down each pleat. This pleating method can result in excess material, so you can trim this material off. Cut away excess material from the section starting 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the hipline and ending at the waist. Do not cut away material from the first and last pleats.
A: Make the first pleat. Measure out your pleats. Pleat the remainder of the outside apron. Baste the pleats along the bottom of the material. Iron the pleats flat. Stitch the pleats down. Trim the back of the pleats.

Q: It can take anywhere from 6 to 12 months for your residual limb to stabilize in size and shape. You'll need to continue using a temporary prosthesis until the limb is stable. Once your doctor decides that the limb is stable, they'll measure the residual limb and order the prosthesis for you. Your doctor will most likely ask you to come in for monthly or bi-monthly appointments before this point, so they can inspect the residual limb and monitor its progress. Once you've received your permanent prosthesis, you'll need to transition from wearing a temporary prosthesis much of the time to wearing your custom-made one. Your prosthetist can help you make a schedule that details how long you'll wear your prosthesis on a daily basis. For example, maybe you'll only wear the prosthesis for 34 hours a day for the first 2 weeks. Over the course of the next 23 months, you'll gradually increase the number of hours you wear the limb until you're finally wearing it 16 hours a day. As you wear your prosthesis for longer and longer durations of time, you'll also be able to increase the amount of activity that you can do while you wear it. Gait training is the training process that your prosthetist will guide you through so that you can comfortably walk and move in your prosthesis. You'll likely start by supporting your weight with parallel bars or a cane, and then progress towards walking on your own. Your doctor or prosthetist may also recommend that you see a physical therapist to rebuild muscle tone in the amputated limb and to keep the residual limb flexible. Check the fit of your customized prosthesis every hour during the first month. After walking and standing in the prosthesis for 1 hour, reach down and wiggle the prosthesis on your limb. It shouldn't move and you should feel no discomfort at any point when you're wearing the new prosthesis. To increase your comfort while you're wearing the prosthesis, try adding or subtracting layers of prosthesis-covering socks. These socks should be worn over your stump and under the silicone liner. Your doctor or prosthetist can give you specialized socks, or you can purchase them at a medical supply store. Use the exercise program provided by your doctor to strengthen your muscles and gain flexibility. Strength and flexibility will allow you to do more whether you have your prosthetic limb on or not.
A: Obtain a permanent prosthesis once your residual limb has stabilized. Put together a schedule for wearing your prosthesis. Go through gait training to feel comfortable wearing your prosthesis. Wear socks and wiggle the limb hourly to ensure that the prosthesis fits.

Q: Ask yourself if you want to connect with friends as well as colleagues and professionals. Decide if you want to get involved with the community or just keep up to date on the newest industry news. Defining your purpose will help direct your actions. That purpose may change, but as with any professional endeavor, it is good to have a business plan. Include a professional picture of your face, a website and an "elevator pitch" of your professional experience and interests. Before deciding to follow, or interact with you, each Twitter user is going to take a look at your page, to see if you have similar interests. Try to make your Twitter username as close to your real name as you can. This way, past colleagues will know who you are immediately. Another alternative is to name it after your website or blog, if you have a professionally-focused site. Then, the username can help you professionally by telling people your website name in all your posts. Customize your background image. Choose an image from your website or your logo. If you don't have access to 1 of these images, choose something related to your industry. Think of Twitter as a conversation at a work-based social gathering. Keep your topics educational, news related, entertaining and slightly personal. You should post at least 20 or more times before starting to follow people on Twitter. Few people will follow you, if they can't read about your interests and favorite topics. Don't worry if no one responds to your first tweets, because Twitter relationships are often slow to start at first.
A: Decide what you want to get from your Twitter account, before you sign up for one. Create your bio as if it's an online resume, or an introduction at a professional conference. Start tweeting about professional topics and personal interests.

Q: It's the cloud with an arrow inside. If you're using Windows, you'll find it near the bottom-right corner of the screen in the task bar. If you have a Mac, it's in the menu bar near the top-right corner of the screen. It's at the top-right corner of the Backup & Sync panel. A list of your paused uploads will appear. The selected upload is now resumed.
