Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Spread the fur out in the sun to dry for 1-2 hours.

Answer: Lay down a towel or a mesh screen and position the fur on top of it. Try to spread the fur out as much as possible without breaking it up into small pieces. If there's wind, place a mesh screen or towel on top of the fur to hold it in place. If it's cloudy or rainy outside, leave the fur inside to dry in a well-ventilated area. It may take up to 4 hours for the fur to dry inside.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Break out your slow cooker. Make an impromptu double-boiler. Turn a cooler into a heater.

Answer: Grease the inside with butter. Pour enough cream or milk to line the bottom. Scoop your potatoes in, stir, and set the cooker to LOW. Serve your potatoes at any time up to 4 hours after doing so. Continue to stir at least once an hour in the meantime. Transfer your potatoes to a bowl. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil, plastic wrap, or a clean dish towel. Break out a pan large enough to fit the bowl. Fill the pan with a fair amount of water to boil (if the pan is deeper than the bowl, be careful not to fill it with too much water; you don't want to submerge the bowl). Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat to simmer. Place the bowl into the water. Stir your potatoes every 15 minutes until your meal is ready to serve. Add more boiling water to the pan if the original water begins to evaporate. If you don't have a burner to spare on your oven, grab an ice cooler. Instead of ice, boil some water and fill the bottom. Cover your bowl of potatoes with aluminum foil, plastic wrap, or a dishcloth. Set your bowl inside the cooler and seal the lid. Stir your potatoes every 15 minutes until your meal is ready to serve. If the water inside the cooler cools off, drain the cooler and add more boiling water to keep your potatoes warm. If your cooler is too small to fit your bowl of potatoes, scoop them into heavy-duty, sealable storage bags and set those inside your cooler.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look for dark golden-brown to yellowish-white wood. Ask if the wood is stained. Look for a straight grain.

Answer: The color of teak wood varies depending on what species a tree is and what part of the tree the wood is from. Color ranges from dark golden-brown to yellowish-white. Knowing what type of teak you're looking for is important when examining color. The outer layer of the tree is called sapwood and is yellowish-white in color. This wood has a higher moisture content and is therefore weaker than heartwood. The core of the tree is called heartwood and ranges from golden brown to darker brown. This wood is harder, stronger, more expensive, and generally more desirable than sapwood. Some teak dealers or stores may stain the wood, therefore masking its true color. Make sure to ask if the wood you're interested in has any stains on it. If it does, you'll need to identify the wood in a different way. Since teak wood gets darker with age, you should also ask about the age of the wood so you can make sure you get the type of wood you want. The grain of true teak wood is generally straight. It will look like straight streaks or lines of a darker color than the rest of the wood. If the wood grain doesn't look straight or at least mostly straight, you'll want to ask some questions. Depending on how the wood was cut, the grain could also be slightly wavy.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Tell your partner directly what you don't like. Use positive reinforcement. Talk about kissing. Show patience. Embrace the sloppy kisses.

Answer:
Communication is very important in relationships, so there's no need to beat around the bush. You could just be forthright and honest. You want to spare your partner's feelings, so it's best to start by trying to fix a sloppy kisser with positive and subtle encouragement. However, if this doesn't work, your partner should respect your honesty, and it's time to be more direct. Telling your partner what you do like can be the best way to direct the other person to stop doing what you don't like. However, there may come a time that you need to say something like, "I prefer gentle kissing. Is it OK if we try kissing that way?" Be kind but direct. When your partner kisses you in a way that you like, let your partner know. Say things like, "I really love it when you kiss me in this way." It's better to express what you like than to tell your partner what you don't like because people can get very sensitive about how they kiss. If your partner is kissing you in a way you don't like, simply start kissing the other person the way you prefer, but then use positive verbal reinforcement after a few minutes of it to encourage the better way of kissing. You could just cut to the chase and tell your partner exactly where and how you want to be kissed. If you do this in a sensual, loving way, it could actually turn your partner on! Say something like, "I love it most when you kiss me gently" or however you prefer to be kissed. You could back up and ask your partner to kiss you in a specific way. Being verbal is OK. It's better to express how you feel than to hold it in and not enjoy the kiss. Don't immediately dump a person just because they're a sloppy kisser. You could be giving up a good thing! A lot of people think they are good kissers and don't realize they are sloppy. Maybe the last person they kissed preferred the way they are kissing you (as hard as that might be to imagine). Research has shown that some people judge a relationship by the first kiss. This can be a mistake. It takes time to get to know a new partner and to understood their likes and dislikes and the nuances that make a connection work. Give it time, and remember that communication is important. There are actually biological reasons for sloppy kissing. Research has found that men are more likely to use sloppy kisses. Men's saliva has testosterone in it. Thus, it's been shown to raise a partner's libido! It might improve your sex life to embrace it! Kissing also has other chemical benefits. It activates the release of dopamine, which makes people feel good, and it can activate release of oxytocin, which creates feelings of attachment.
