Q: Cables used in installing landscape lighting is typically buried underground. The cable runs from the transformer to each light fixture to give them power. Low Voltage electrical cable comes in several gauges (12, 14, 16 are the most common). The lower the gauge number is, the thicker the wire will be. Thicker wires have higher capacities for voltage. Transformers usually have a recommended gauge of wire to use with their system based on the amount of power the transformer can tolerate. Check with the manufacturer of your specific transformer to determine which gauge to use. Low voltage lighting can include several different types of lighting. It is important to choose the type that works best for your project. Accent fixtures are the smaller, less obvious types of lights that include floodlights, spotlights, etc. Usually, this type of lighting is used to illuminate trees, plants, flowerbeds, ponds, and other features in your landscape. Pathway lighting (as the name implies) is designed to illuminate pathways. They are often more decorative than accent fixtures as they are designed to be seen. You can use them to line your driveway, to light up the walkway to your front door, or to shine some light on a pathway in your backyard. There are several different ways to design the way the cables run from the transformer to the fixtures. The design you choose depends on the outcome you want. You can wire the lights in a straight run from the transformer. This means that there is a single length of wire running from the transformer to each of the lights in sequence. Another option is to wire the lights in a loop, with the wire returning to the transformer. This helps reduce the power dropping off at long distances from the transformer, which keeps distant lights from dimming. You can also install multiple straight runs from the same transformer. Keeping the lights closer to the transformer will help eliminate the voltage drop that occurs when lights are further away.
A: Consider what kind of electric cable to use. Choose your lights. Choose the design of your lighting method.

Q: These shorts are meant to be worn as workout gear without anything layered on top of them. They are engineered with high-end materials and have unique constructions that set them apart from the undergarment versions. Unfortunately, these high-end materials raise the price tag significantly. Outerwear compression shorts are usually 2-3 times more expensive than the undergarment versions. On the upside, they usually last longer and are far more durable. These shorts have the top-shelf construction, special features, and high-end fabrics that many serious athletes prefer. They provide support for the glutes, quads, and hamstrings. Increased blood flow and better bone alignment are other features that interest serious athletes. Outerwear compression shorts are thought to also speed up recovery time, prevent delayed-onset muscle soreness, and prevent injuries associated with intense sporting activities. You may prefer this style if you play intense sports, are a long-distance runner, or interested in training recovery. Undergarment compression shorts are meant to be worn beneath athletic clothing, such as under a looser-fitting pair of shorts or bottoms. They are manufactured to be mainstream athletic gear, making them easier to find in stores and much cheaper. $15-$25 USD is a typical price range. They aren't as durable as the outerwear versions, but most brands still produce high quality gear. If you live an active lifestyle, these shorts are easy to wear, functional, and comfortable. They provide muscle support and help circulation. Many wear them as supportive gear instead of jockstraps and other traditional athletic supporters, and they are an effective replacement.
A: Choose outerwear compression shorts if you want high-end gear. Opt for outerwear compression shorts if you're a serious athlete. Go with undergarment shorts for a more affordable solution. Select undergarment shorts for a blend of support and comfort.

Q: A child who has dyslexia may find it hard to read clocks, or to use typical written schedules. Try using picture schedules to help the child know what the day will bring. These can be hand-drawn, downloaded and printed from online sources, or found in an app of a smartphone. Consider setting a phone alarm to provide additional reminders for time management. Set a limit on the time the student should expect to spend on homework, as a student who has dyslexia may spend more time than his peers on the same material. Since sequencing is difficult for most people with dyslexia, you can help support them by showing them the smaller steps that make up a larger task. Use checklists, or picture lists for younger students. For example, providing a "homework checklist" which includes not only the pages to be read, and worksheets to be completed, but also steps like "get pen or pencil", "write your name on the top of the page," and "put homework in school folder when finished." If the student's visual memory is poor, rote copying will not be an effective way of learning. Instead, offer notes or handouts to help the student learn the information. Folders or binders with pockets to help a student organize his materials. Use color-coding, which supports separating the materials into different subjects. Keep pens and pencils in a packet within the notebook for easy access. It can be a good idea to check and make sure that a student with dyslexia has the homework assignment written down correctly, and placed in the same position within his notebook every night. Consider providing a homework checklist to help with organization. Automated processes, the kind of rote memorization that allows for easy access to familiar activities, is often more challenging for someone with dyslexia. Poor memory recall is one of the hallmarks of the dyslexia. A better way of learning is to teach a person with dyslexia to rely on models that can provide a framework for effective learning. An example of such a framework is the rule "I before E except after C" which can help a person who has dyslexia with spelling. Other supports include providing acronyms for accessing organizational systems. For instance, SLUR might be taught as a way to remember "Socks, left (drawer), Underwear, right (drawer)." Studies suggest that people with dyslexia may find reading easier when using an e-reader rather than printed paper. E-readers limit the amount of text appearing on a single line, which prevents visual crowding on the page. In particular, people who have dyslexia and who have issues with visual attention may benefit from the use of e-readers. Some people who have dyslexia also prefer using certain fonts with e-readers.
A: Use visual reminders to help with time management. Break tasks down into smaller parts. Provide folders to support organization. Help a person with dyslexia create models to support learning. Use an electronic reader (e-reader).

Q: One of the most popular is available on the steam workshop. It is a map by CrashZ called "Crosshair Generator." You can also search for "CSGO Crosshair Generator" using your favorite search engine. Opening the map will allow you to change the size of your crosshairs and will give you tons of different options to customize with color, gap, dot, and so on. You can also check your crosshairs against a variety of backgrounds to make sure it is visible. The CrashZ map allows you to select crosshairs used by professional Counter Strike players, so you can make like the pros. Other crosshair generators will allow you to tinker with your settings and, once it's perfect, gives you a code with all your customizations. Copy this code, then open the developer console in Counter Strike and paste the code into the box. Your crosshairs will change to match the version you made in the generator.
A:
Download a crosshair generator online. Customize your crosshairs from within the map. Generate a custom crosshair and paste the code into the developer console.
