Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Warm up Start your layup outside the key on either side. Make a buffer between you and the defender to cut inside. Drive to the baseline. Jump outwards towards the opposite side of the rim. Delay the pickup of your reverse layup before the shot. Make the shot.

Answer: . Shooting the reverse layup involves executing swift, sharp drives across the court to the opposite side of the basket. This kind of activity can easily strain muscles in your legs. To prevent this, you should warm up before attempting the reverse layup. To warm up, you might: Do some light stretching. Touch your toes. Brace yourself against a wall and incline each foot, one at a time, to stretch your calves, and so on, until your muscles are warmed up. Do some light calisthenics, like lunges, jumping jacks, a few laps around the court, or other kinds of light aerobic exercise. Technically, it's possible to perform a reverse layup at a closer distance. However, for the purpose of mastering the mechanics of this technique, you should begin your approach for this shot outside the key. There are many angles of attack you could use for the reverse layup, but all traditional ones drive from either side of the free throw lane to the opposite side of the basket. True beginners can locate the key on the court by looking for the keyhole shape formed by the paint of the free throw lane and the semicircle at the top of that lane. If a defender sees you coming, they might block you from cutting to their inside (towards the basket) and crossing to the opposite side of the hoop. Try to create enough space between you and the defender that you have a clean route to drive to the baseline. The baseline is the boundary line for either side of the court directly underneath the basket of each time. While approaching the basket for your reverse layup, you might juke to the outside (away from the basket) to throw off the defender, then cut hard to their inside to the opposite side of the basket. Now that you've created space enough for your approach, drive to the baseline of the opposite side of the basket. When you are about two steps from the opposite side of the rim, you'll need to take hold of the ball and prepare to make the shot. You may have to adjust to defense while taking this shot. This may mean that you have to begin the jump for your reverse layup a step early or late and adjust accordingly. As you cut across the free throw lane to the baseline, one side of your leg will face inside (toward the basket), and the other outside (toward the court). Drive downward off your inside leg and jump toward the opposite side of the rim. The reverse layup can be shot from either side of the free throw lane. No matter which side you approach from, always jump off your inside leg. When jumping, it is often instinct to look down or at the ball. Losing sight of the basket will only hurt your shot. Incline your head slightly while jumping to keep the basket in view. An instant after you begin your jump, you'll need to take the ball and make the shot. When taking hold of the ball, delay your pickup slightly so you grip the ball high in the arc of its bounce. The ball should be at about chest level before you make the shot. At this point, one of your hands will be facing inside (toward the basket) and the other outside (toward the court). Take the ball in your outside hand while jumping, extend your arm, and flip the ball off the backboard and into the hoop. Unlike many distance shots, the reverse layup doesn't require you to shoot from the knees. Instead, focus on a strong, consistent, clean shooting motion.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Measure the band. Bend down the top edge flaps. Open the bottom edge flaps. Remove the links. Put the bracelet back together.

Answer: You can do this by attaching one end of the watch strap to its case, then wrapping the strap around your wrist. Count how many of the links are overlapping and add one to this number. The number you come with is the number of links that will need to be removed. With this kind of watch band, you can easily remove links from any part of the band. Place the watch face down on your work surface and bend down the top edge flaps of the section you intend to remove. Flip the watch over and snap open the bottom edge flaps. These are located directly to the left of the top flaps you opened already. Take the link out by sliding the section you wish to remove sideways. This will automatically disengage the staples which hold the links together. To do this, you will need to engage the staples on both sides of the strap at the same time, before snapping all of the flaps back into place.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Locate a reputable German Shepherd breeder in your area. Visit potential breeders in person. Ask the breeders questions. Choose a breeder who keeps the litter inside of his home or someplace where they receive regular interaction with people. Choose a breeder who has completed all the necessary health testing and certifications on the German Shepherds. Visit with any puppies available for sale.

Answer:
Talk to others who own German Shepherds. Visit area dog parks, dog shows, and other places in your area where people gather with their dogs. Ask if they bought their dog from a breeder and if they were happy with the experience. Check the American German Shepherd Rescue Association and the American Kennel Club websites for German shepherd breeder referrals nationwide. It is a good idea to visit several breeders before deciding which you want to buy your puppy from. You want to determine how knowledgeable they are about the German shepherd breed and how well they take care of their dogs. Look for breeders who participate with their dogs in activities that demonstrate the dogs' abilities. Such activities include Schutzhund, the working breed test for German Shepherds, and dog shows. Avoid breeders who keep the dogs in cages away from people and have multiple litters at the same time. These puppies often do not receive the early stimulation necessary for development. This includes certification that the dogs do not carry a predisposition for hip or elbow dysplasia, eye disorders, cardiac disease, or Von Willebrand's disease (or VWD). Although some breeders do sell puppies on the Internet, you should always visit the breeder in person and see the puppy before deciding to buy it. If a litter is not currently available, ask if you can visit with a breeder's adult dogs. Notice the adult dogs' physical appearance. The size, build and coloring of the breeding pair is a good indication of how future puppies will look. An adult male German shepherd should stand 24 to 26 inches (60 to 66 cm) at the top of his shoulder blades. A female should stand 22 to 24 inches (55 to 60 cm). If you like what you see and feel comfortable with the breeder, request to be contacted when a litter is being offered for sale. Observe the way the available puppies and the grown dogs interact with each other and people. German Shepherds should have an even temperament. They should display fearlessness and self-confidence, but not aggression or hostility. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the area where the dogs are kept. The dogs' space should be free or feces and urine, and fresh water should be available.
