Article: Remember: after you remove all traces of old paste, you want to wipe the heatsink and processor with another application of rubbing alcohol or cleaner. Do not apply new paste immediately after doing so. Wait until they have thoroughly air-dried. Apply a small bead of new paste directly to its surface. Keep it about the same size as a rice grain. Don't worry about doing the same to the heatsink, unless your owner's manual specifically states otherwise. Thermal paste is available online and stores selling computers and other electronics. If you've been using latex gloves, switch to a clean, fresh pair. Otherwise, wrap some plastic wrap around your finger. Use your fingertip to spread the bead of paste over the core's surface. Try not to get it on the surrounding green area, but don't freak out if this happens by accident. Your computer will still work fine. You'll just have more to clean up next time around. Once the paste has been spread over the processor's core, you're good to go. Reassemble your computer. Refer to your owner's manual for specific instructions regarding your particular model.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Give the heatsink and processor a chance to dry. Dab the processor's core with paste. Spread the paste over the core's surface. Put your computer together.
Article: If you've tried and can't remember the password firsthand, it's likely you'll never get it back. Fortunately, that doesn't mean you've lost the associated account. Most sites will have a 'Forgot Password' option available for this very sake. Click this button and follow the steps to reset your password. If it's a non-email password (like Facebook), resetting a password will be fairly easy. An automated confirmation will be sent to your email, from which you'll reset your password and start a new one. Some email services (like Hotmail) offer the possibility of connecting them with another email account for the sake of password resetting. If you have another email account and have done this, resetting the password will be just as easy as it would be with any other non-email account. If it's an email account you're trying to access, and you haven't connected it with a separate email address, your other option of resetting the password is by answering your listed secret questions. Many email accounts will get you to answer personal questions (e.g. the name of your first pet) as a contingency if you end up forgetting your password later on. Click on the 'Forgot My Password' button and answer questions wherever prompted. While this won't bring you back your password, it stands a good chance of helping you reclaim your password. Unfortunately, many people don't take secret questions seriously, and some may forget their answers sooner than the passwords themselves! While contacting the company that hosts your account won't help you get your password back, the company may be able to help you regain access by resetting the password. While you'll have to deliver certain proof of your identity, some services will allow you to reclaim use of your account through calling or messaging them. Keep in mind that the process of verification can take a while even in the best circumstances, so patience is a must should you decide to take this route.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Try the "Forgot My Password" option. Answer your account's secret questions. Contact the service provider directly.
Article: Before you begin working, you must acquire the right piece of wood. The easiest and best type of woods to use are plywood and medium-density fiberboard (MDF), which you can purchase from your nearest hardware store. When you visit the hardware store, ask the attendant to cut the wood to a specific size, or buy a large piece and trim it on your own. You can go as large or small as you want, depending on how you're using your sign. The majority of precut wood is sold in 48in (120cm) by 24in (61cm) or 24in (61cm) by 24in (61cm). Square or rectangular pieces of wood are the easiest shapes to work with, especially for beginners. However, if you're trying to fit a certain theme or just want something different from the norm, use a woodcutter to shape your wood differently. Circular signs make excellent wall art, for instance. Alternatively, a heart-shaped sign with a romantic quote is a great choice for decorating yours and your significant other's bedroom. You can't write on wood without first having an idea of what you want to write! If you have an eye for design and typography, draw out a template of your own on a piece of paper with a calligraphy pen. Alternatively, do an online search for typography designs and print out a design you like. For example, you could write something like, "Welcome to our abode," to create an entrance sign for house guests. If the sign is for a specific room in your home, use your favorite phrase to describe the home. For instance, this could be a literary quote about enjoying family and the smaller moments in life for your living room. Alternatively, write a family member's name to create a nameplate for their bedroom. Sand the entire surface of the woodeven the sides and backby rubbing the fine-grit sandpaper back and forth along the grain. Sanding will make the wood easier to stain and write on. Alternatively, you could use an electric sander. Mix the stain thoroughly with a wooden spoon or a stick. Apply the stain with either a paintbrush or a clean rag. Load up your paint brush or rag with stain and swipe it across the wood. Coat the wood with stain from top to bottom. Don't forget to put on a pair of gloves before you begin staining! The stain can be any color you want. Don't be afraid to get creative! This will especially help if you're writing with permanent markers. Focus on coating the darkest parts of the wood and use a soft cloth to apply the product. Add a second layer once the first layer has completely dried. Most stain blockers take between 6 and 8 hours to dry. Stain blocker is available at your local hardware store. You may want to use a ruler to calculate exactly where you want each letter to be and what size to make your writing. Sketch out how much space the writing will take up on the wood by making a box (or boxes) to fit your letters into. The box(es) will form a guideline to help you center your template and keep your letters organized. Alternatively, make a frame to block your letters into with masking tape.

Select a rectangular piece of plywood or MDF in any size. Choose or create a typography template for the letters. Sand the wood with 120- to 220-grit sandpaper until it's smooth. Apply oil-based stain to the wood. Smear a stain blocker onto the wood to protect your lettering. Sketch out the size and spacing for your lettering.
