Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use the attic. Get a friend's help. Buy a portable safe. Hollow out a book Hide your things outside.

Answer: The attic is used for long term storage and is a place that few people go on a regular basis. Hide the item somewhere easy for you to access, but out of plain view in case someone needs to move something to or from the attic. Valuable items are found in attics all the time, and there's a reason for that people rarely have reason to enter the attic! Put the item in a garbage bag and cover it with old clothes you no longer want to better camouflage the item. Labeling the bag can help add to the disguise. For example, writing "Christmas decorations" on the bag will prevent the bag from being examined until the appropriate time of the year. Hide something at a friend's house if they have more space to spare, or there is no danger of getting them in trouble for doing so. For example, if your parents frown on junk food or soda, a friend's place makes the perfect stash spot. Make sure your stuff gets hidden properly or marked appropriately as yours. You don't want someone to take your stuff. Your parents might not approve of this idea, especially if the safe is in plain sight. You can store the safe in the attic or somewhere else hidden to keep your parents from being suspicious. A mini fridge for your room might can serve the same purpose as a safe and will look much less out of place if you keep it in plain sight. Look for a mini fridge that comes with a locking mechanism to keep just anyone from checking out your fridge. Safes and mini fridges can also be camouflaged. Tape some cardboard around the safe to create the illusion that the safe is simply a storage box full of your things. . This is a fun way to hide things that is particularly effective if you do a lot of reading. Make sure it's a book that fits your reading habits. Keep an actual copy of the book you hollowed out in case your parents or siblings ever want to actually borrow that book. This same technique works with items such as old VHS tapes or DVD cases. Throw them in a box of old tapes or other junk to complete the look. Several websites offer services for hollowing out books, and can cut the storage area out to your specifications. Hiding items outside gives you a much larger area to work with when hiding items and makes tracing items back to you more difficult. Take care when hiding items outside that someone else doesn't find and take the item your parents aren't the only ones to worry about if you choose this route. Make sure you put them somewhere very well hidden, so nobody will find them. The woods are a great place with plenty of nooks and crannies to hide things. Try hiding a few green carrier bags in a thick prickly bush, but make sure they are out of sight. The shed or garage is a good place to hide larger items. These areas are mostly used for storing items that are used only occasionally, such as the lawnmower or power tools. Make sure to properly mask the item you are hiding by placing it in a bag or other container first. Dig a hole and hide something there. Make sure the item is properly protected to avoid damage from the elements. Avoid digging in a spot that might give away your handiwork. For example, digging a hole in a grassy patch will leave a telltale bald area of fresh dirt. Large partitions under the house or patio also allow for storage without drawing much suspicion. If items such as the lawnmower are also stored there, be ready to move your stash when it comes time to mow the lawn.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Tie your hair back. Try braiding your hair. Use anti-frizz serum or hairspray. Slick your hair back with gel. Wear waterproof mascara, eye liner, and eyeshadow. Apply liquid foundations and cream blushes instead of powders. Keep your make-up light.

Answer: Odds are, the moisture in the air will make it difficult to style your hair in any elaborate manner. Keeping your hair down may even prove difficult if you have hard to manage locks, since humidity may cause frizz and hard-to-tame waves. Reduce this effect by tying your hair back in a clean, slick ponytail. It may still get frizzy if you do not use any styling products to keep it down, but the amount of frizz will likely seem less noticeable. Braids add an extra layer of structure into your style, which may further reduce unruly frizz. Wear two tightly braided pigtails for a playful, youthful look, or try one large braided ponytail down your back to create a dressier appearance. Whether you have your hair down or tied back, hair care products like these are a rainy day necessity. Anti-frizz serum is especially usefully in taming fly-away frizz caused by the humidity. Hairspray may not be necessary for casual styles, but if you want your hair to stay put, you should definitely consider a quick spritz. If you have short hair, ponytails and braids are not exactly an option you can take advantage of. For a fuss-free rainy day style, slick your hair back with gel. This keeps your hair styled, frizz-free, and in place while giving it a wet appearance that nullifies the desire to keep your hair dry. Mascara can look especially bad once it runs, so waterproof mascara is an absolute necessity on a rainy day. Eye liner and eyeshadow can also run and get in your eyes once wet, so you should look for waterproof versions of these, as well. Liquid cosmetics do not wash away as easily as powders, so your make-up will last longer. Additionally, liquids and creams do not streak as easily as powders do upon getting wet. The less you can get away with wearing, the better. No matter what products you apply, there is still some chance that they will run or wear off. If you feel comfortable skipping make-up for a day, go for it. Otherwise, keep your make-up application at a bare minimum, only opting for a light coating of the products you feel are "must haves" in your daily beauty routine.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Download the Tor browser bundle. Run the browser. Check that you are connected.

Answer: Tor is a free distributed network that keeps you anonymous while you while you are connected through the browser. Information is bounced between a large number of relays that exist all over the globe. Tor allows you to bypass any firewalls or restrictions placed on your connection. The drawback is that websites load slowly, as the data has to travel great distances to reach you. The Tor browser bundle is a self-contained program that does not need to be installed. You can place it onto a USB drive and plug it into any computer. The browser bundle is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. The Tor browser is a modified version of Firefox, and shares a lot of interface similarities with it. When you run the browser program, a window will appear showing the status of the Tor connection. Once the connection is established, the browser will open. Only traffic sent through the Tor browser will be sent through the Tor network. That means that Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari, or any other browser will not be anonymous through the Tor network while Tor is running. Once the browser window opens, you should see a page confirming that you are successfully connected to Tor. You should now be able to access sites that were previously blocked. Closing the browser window will stop Tor from running While data in the Tor network is encrypted, it cannot decrypt data leaving the Tor network. That means that any secure transactions that you need to make are just as vulnerable as they are on the regular internet. Only give out personal information to sites with SSL enabled. You will see HTTPS:// instead of HTTP:// and your browser address field will display a security lock.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Collect your information. Open a new worksheet in Excel. Enter labels for your variables. Input your variables. Set up your equation. Input your variables into the equation. Solve your equation. Edit the numbers.

Answer:
Calculating your payments in this way will allow you to see how much you would pay per month with a given balloon payment at the end of the life of the loan. To find this information, either consult your loan agreement or estimate this information as best you can. Remember, you can always change this information to multiple different values to estimate payments on different loans. You'll need the following information: your annual interest rate, the duration of your loan in years, your loan amount, and your balloon payment amount. Start by opening Excel on your computer. Then, open a new, blank workbook and begin your work on the worksheet that comes up. In the first column, column A, enter the names for the variables you will be using. It's easiest if you enter them as follows, from top to bottom: your annual interest rate, the duration of your loan in years, your loan amount, and your balloon payment amount. If entered correctly, this information will be in cells A1 through A4. Type your loan information into the appropriately-labeled spaces next to your variable names. If entered correctly, they should be entered as follows: Your annual interest rate, for example 4%, should be entered in cell B1. Be sure to include the percent sign. Your loan duration, for example 15 years, should be entered in cell B2 as a simple number. In this case, you would just enter 15. Your loan amount, also called the principal, should be entered into cell B3. For example, for a loan amount of $150,000, you would enter 150,000. Excel will assume this is an amount of money; no need to enter the dollar sign. Enter your balloon amount into cell B4. This should be a negative number, as it is a payment. For example, for a $27,000 balloon payment, you would enter -27,000. The function that will be used here in the payment function, abbreviated by Excel as PMT. To enter this equation, find a nearby empty cell and type "=PMT(". The program will then prompt you for variables like this: =PMT(rate, nper, pv, [fv], [type]). Additional changes will have to be made to your entered variables within the PMT function. When prompted, enter the variables as follows: For the "rate" prompt, you'll need your periodic rate instead of your annual rate. This means dividing your annual rate in cell B1 by the number of payments per year on your loan. For monthly payments, divide by 12, for quarterly payments by 4, and for semi-annual payments by 2. Enter a comma to move to the next variable. Assuming monthly payments, your equation should now look like this: =PMT(B1/12 For the "nper" prompt, enter your loan duration in cell B2. However, like the rate prompt, this will need to be adjusted to the total number of payments. For monthly payments, multiply by 12, for quarterly by 4, and for semi-annual by 2. Enter a comma to move to the next variable. Assuming monthly payments, your equation should now look like this: =PMT(B1/12,B2*12, Enter your last two variables, in B3 and B4, for the "pv" and "[fv]" prompts, respectively. Be sure to enter a comma after B3. Then, close the equation with a closing parenthesis mark. Your finished equation should look like this: =PMT(B1/12,B2*12,B3,B4) Press enter. Your result should be displayed in the cell where you entered your equation. It will be a red, negative number. Again, this simply means that this a payment. If it is not a negative number, you've entered some information incorrectly or your loan is not a balloon payment loan. In the example, the program would return a monthly payment of $999.82. If you are comparing multiple loans, save this payment figure elsewhere in the worksheet and enter information from your other loans. This will allow you to compare payments from different loan amounts, interest rates, durations, or balloon payments.
