Problem: Article: Make sure all the chicken pieces are about the same size so they will cook evenly. Mix to combine thoroughly, then cover the pot. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then reduce heat to med-low and simmer for 40-50 minutes, or until chicken is almost cooked. Set the sauce aside to be strained, reduced, and poured over the chicken later. In a large frying pan, heat the oil to medium high. Then, brown the chicken on all sides. Set the chicken pieces on a plate covered in paper towels. If you're in a more casual setting, you can just add the chicken back to the cooking pot after the sauce is ready. Remove the bay leaves, and the peppercorns if you find them too spicy. If you want a smoother sauce, strain it with a strainer. If desired, skim any excess fat from the top with a cold spoon or a fat separator. Remember to add the salt after you reduce the sauce, as it will get saltier from the soy sauce as it boils down. If you prefer a thinner, less salty sauce, add a little water and reheat. For a thicker sauce, heat the sauce on medium-high heat until it is reduced to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally, making sure not to let the sauce burn on the bottom. Either pour over the chicken on your serving platter, or put the chicken back into the pot. Adobo is traditionally served over steamed rice. Pour a little extra sauce over the rice, if desired.
Summary: Place chicken into a 4 qt heavy bottomed cooking pot with a lid. Add water, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, bay leaves, pepper. Braise the chicken in the covered pot. Remove the chicken, but reserve the sauce. Brown the chicken pieces. Drain any excess oil from the chicken. Place the chicken onto your serving dish. Strain the sauce. Adjust the sauce to your desired thickness, and add salt if desired. Combine sauce with the chicken. Serve and enjoy!

Problem: Article: Make sure that the financial information you gave to the court was accurate. You will not be given a court-appointed attorney if you can afford to pay for one yourself. Review your finances and to be sure that having to hire an attorney would be a hardship for you and your family. Ask the court clerk what forms you need to submit to appeal the court's decision denying your request for a court-appointed attorney. Forms vary from state to state and county to county. Take your completed paperwork to the clerk's office to submit it. Be sure to attach any supporting documentation required by the forms. Once you have submitted your appeal, wait for the court to send you a copy of its decision. Be sure to observe any deadline for filing your appeal. If you received your initial denial of your request for a court-appointed attorney by mail, it should have contained a deadline to file an appeal. These deadlines may be very short. In Alaska, for example, the deadline is three days.
Summary: Review your financial information again. Locate the proper forms. Submit your forms.

Problem: Article: You may find this special card at a magic shop or some other store. It requires a playing card, along with string. The black string comes in thick threads. You have to carefully pull out a strand of string about arm's length. One end of the string is taped or stuck to the back of your (dominant side) ear, and the other end is taped or stuck with putty to the top face of the card. With the card in your hands, all you must do is spin it in order to make it look like a flying saucer card. From there, you can lift the string with the inside of your thumb to move it around making it look like you are levitating the card. It is ideal to wear a dark shirt (preferably black) to better hide the string from the audience. Many people levitate a card using a magic trick tool called Invisible Thread. You can find this thread online or at magic stores. All you have to do is wrap the thread around your wrist. Then you can bring it out when you need it with an easy twist of the wrist. Nobody will notice, and then you can just wrap the string around the cards and make them fly into the air and levitate. The key part about this trick is to make your audience buy it. So you have to be pretty good at acting.< Tie the clear fishing line around your finger, and tie the other end around the card, and practice. Use a clear string that is also strong, and tape it to the card. Then tape the other side of the string to your ear and move your hands around to make it look like it is levitating. Then find a very fine thread, put it through the hole, and tie a knot on the bottom. Tape the top of the thread to your hand. From a distance, use your pinky or thumb to lift up the last (or second to last) card. This will make it look like it's levitating. Again, take care to watch your angles, and don't stand too close to the audience when you do the trick.
Summary: Buy a hummer card. Use invisible thread. Try using fishing line. Poke a hole with a needle through the center of a card.

Problem: Article: One of the most important things when looking for the girl for you is making sure that your girl is kind. A sassy attitude is one thing but someone who does not care about the feelings of others won't be able to sustain a healthy relationship for very long. Also kind to others. It's important that she's not just kind to you. She should also be kind to others, especially people that she doesn't have to be nice to (like service workers). It's easy enough for someone to fake being nice when they think that it's important, but being rude to people they don't care about should tip you off that you're one fight away from her being rude to you too. This also means that she should be fair. Fairness is very important in relationships. Does she offer to pay for things every now and again? Does she split chores and relationship responsibilities evenly? This shows that she thinks about your well being, which is key in a relationship. You want to be with someone who's willing to work for what they want in life. They should push themselves, at least occasionally. When someone works hard, that means that they will be stable and that there will be fewer chances for things to go wrong. For example, if she wants to buy a purse, she should be selling some of her old stuff. She should not just expect you or her parents to just buy it for her. Birthdays and gift holidays are obvious exceptions, however. Having a girl with good values and priorities is very important in relationships. Her values and priorities don't have to match up with what's traditionally considered good but they should match up with your value system and your priorities. There are occasional exceptions though. Your girl should definitely: Be honest. Honesty is incredibly important in relationships, no matter what kind of people you are and what kind of relationship you have. Relationships require trust and if she isn't honest with you, then you can only expect problems in the future. Accept people for who they are, including you. If your girl is judgmental of others, it could only be a matter of time before she's judging you too. If she is judgmental of you or constantly seeks to change who you are or what you look like, you deserve better and she is probably not the one for you. When you're around her, you should feel like you're in a place where you can be honest. You should feel like you can be yourself around her. You should feel like you can cry, be really dorky, and should make you feel like you can do all of the things that you don't normally do in front of other people. For example, if you tell her something deeply personal (like you think you're depressed or that you want to be an astronaut), her response should not be to laugh at you or shut you down. She should try to help you, or at least not discourage you, even if she doesn't agree.
Summary:
Look for someone who is kind. Look for someone who works hard. Expect a girl with good values and priorities. Look for a girl who creates an environment of trust, free of judgement.
