Article: Before you cut the trim, figure out where you plan on placing it. Use a tape measure on the wall, but also hold the piece of trim to the wall to get an idea of how it will fit. Although each piece of trim needs to be cut to a specific length, overestimate the length of trim you need to ensure you have enough to cover the corner. Getting enough trim for short corners is important. You can use short pieces of trim to form the corners as needed, then connect them to longer pieces of trim. The best way to determine the angle is with a bevel protractor. To use the bevel, place the base end firmly against 1 wall, open up the tool, and place the blade end against the other wall. Find the 0 degree mark and read the number above it to figure out the angle measurement. Then, type this into an angle calculator to determine how to adjust a miter saw to cut the trim perfectly. You can find a calculator at http://www.installcrown.com/Crown_angle_generator.html. Take some standard safety precautions before operating a saw. Always wear safety glasses, a dust mask, and earmuffs. For more protection, cut the trim in a ventilated area such as outside of your home. If you can't get outside, open nearby doors and windows. Avoid wearing gloves, long clothing, or jewelry that can get caught under the saw's blade.

Article: When you commit a sin, sit down and take time to think about what happened. Use the time to pray in whatever manner you prefer, and be honest about what happened and why it happened. For instance, you might say something like "Dear Father, I've been having a hard time controlling my temper lately, and I lashed out and yelled at a friend today. Truly, I'm worried about disappointing my friends, and I don't want to hurt them anymore." It's important to be honest about the situation and your intentions. As long as you're honest, you can ask for forgiveness. Once you've prayed about your sin, you can ask for forgiveness. Recite a "sinner's prayer" of your choice, or make up your own to be specific to your situation. Emphasize that you are truly sorry for your actions, and think of ways that you will try harder to act in Jesus' image. If your friends and family haven't accepted Jesus as the Son of God, you can pray for their salvation too. Communicate with God about how much you love them, and think about all of the ways they have helped you grow closer to God. Ask for God's help in showing them the beauty of salvation through the Lord. It's okay to pray for the salvation of people who have a different religion from you. They don't have to change their beliefs, but you can still pray for them. If you continue to commit the same sins over and over, try coming up with a way to remove yourself from the situation or avoid it altogether. Talk to your pastor, spiritual guide, or an adult who you trust about the situation. Finally, pray to Jesus to ask for guidance about how to resist temptation in your life. For example, if you tend to take the Lord's name in vain when you're mad, try to come up with other ways to verbally express your frustration. If you frequently say "Jesus Christ" or "Oh my God" you could say something like "Goodness Gracious" or "Sheesh!"

Article: For an indoor playhouse, a cardboard or Styrofoam box makes an especially easy house. You can build your own from corrugated cardboard, poster board, or any other lightweight material, but an existing box will be much sturdier. If the box is smaller than 2 x 3 feet (60 x 90 cm), you'll need multiple boxes to make the house big enough. Cats may chew the cardboard or Styrofoam, so don't use anything you want to reuse. Use a utility knife to cut through one of the cardboard boxes. Each doorway should be 6 inches (15 cm) high to fit the cat comfortably. Cut a couple of small windows or viewing strips if you want to watch the cat while it plays inside. Glue rags or spare fabric over the doors and windows so you can give your cat some alone time. Add a couple of rooms to your cat's home with the additional boxes. To make a second story, cut a 6" (15 cm) hole in the ceiling and tape another box upside-down over it. There should be enough of a floor left for the cat to walk on. Use packing tape, duct tape, or another sturdy tape. Add a small blanket or a cat bed inside. A scratching post or rough towel gives your cat something to scratch. And of course, what cat doesn't like a cat toy? If you have a multistory cat house put an extra-fun toy on the highest level, so the cat has fun working out how to reach it. Keeping them in the house usually leads to a mess, which might even collapse the cardboard. You can move them nearby, but show your cat their new location to make sure he doesn't return to his old bathroom spot.
