Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Test for proportional controls. Rotate the turret. Fire the weapons. Look for other features. Troubleshoot the controls.

Answer: Also called electronic speed control, tanks with this feature move at different speed increments depending on how far you push the joystick. Try moving the joystick partway when maneuvering over difficult ground. The simpler MAG speed control system has just two possible speeds. These may be toggled the same way or by switch. Most hobby-grade tanks have a turret that can rotate anywhere from about 160 to the full 360, depending on the model. Some can raise or lower the cannon as well. The transmitter may have a separate joystick for the turret or two buttons for clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. If you can't get a particular feature to respond, skip down to troubleshooting instructions. Cheaper tanks may not have this option. Larger tanks often do come with controls for firing the cannon, and sometimes the machine gun as well. This uses one of these three systems: Some tanks just make a noise and may recoil when the cannon is fired. Infrared weapons shoot an invisible beam that other infrared tanks can detect as "damage" for tank battles. These work best in dim light, and in fairly open areas (to avoid unpredictable bouncing.) Some tanks fire Airsoft BBs. These can cause injury and damage to objects, and may not be appropriate for children. Some RC tanks have minor features to add realism or fun. The most common are a smoke chamber, which usually operates automatically once it is stocked. If your tank makes firing and engine noises, there may be a volume control on the bottom of the tank. Test any of the non-movement buttons or joysticks while the tank is stationary, then again while it is moving. If the turret or cannon only respond while the tank is still, you have a simple 2-channel transmitter/receiver. These are much easier to operate, but moving will disable all other features. If the features do work while moving, or if you can't get them to work at all, you most likely have an advanced 4+ channel model. Look up specific instructions for your transmitter if possible, or experiment as follows: If there are small levers next to a joystick, toggling them may enable extra commands from that joystick. In other systems, you may need to learn specific combinations of both joysticks in order to operate the weapons. A rapid flick of a joystick may send a different instruction than a steady push.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Don't let yourself suffer from acne. Reduce irritation from eczema. Pursue similar treatments for psoriasis. Ask about serums, chemical peels, bleaching, or laser treatments to treat brown spots. Discuss light therapy with your doctor. Consider more aggressive ways of treating scars.

Answer: If over-the-counter solutions just aren't working and you can afford it, save yourself years of frustration by scheduling an appointment with a professional. Your dermatologist will likely prescribe some combination of the following: Birth control pills for women, which works to control acne by regulating hormones. Your dermatologist might prescribe this herself, or she might recommend that you seek a prescription from your gynecologist. Antibiotics like doxycycline, minocycline, and tetracycline Topical treatments like sulfur, azelaic acid, dapsone, and benzoyl peroxide Accutane (Isotretinoin), a Vitamin-A derivative that is taken orally. Accutane is only prescribed in the most severe cases, as it requires very strict commitment and comes with many side effects and potential health risks. Your doctor will probably prescribe a topical corticosteroid (to control itching and irritation) first, but if that doesn't work, there are several other options you can try. Be persistent it can take time to find the right strategy. Less common treatments include the following: Reparative creams Oral antibiotics More aggressive corticosteroid treatments Exposure to natural or artificial sunlight Although eczema and psoriasis are different conditions, dermatologists often treat them in similar ways. Psoriasis treatments aim to slow cell growth and remove scales, generally falling into three main categories. Topical treatments like corticosteroids, synthetic vitamin D, and retinoids. Light therapy involving either daily exposure to small amounts of sunlight or targeted treatment of affected areas. Drugs that reduce inflammation (like methotrexate) or control the immune system (like cyclosporine). While you're at the doctor's office, be sure to rule out any potentially serious health problems what looks like an annoying dark spot to you might look like a potentially cancerous mole to your dermatologist. Another possible treatment for acne is light therapy. Exposure to blue light can kill the bacteria that causes red, swollen (inflammatory) acne, and exposure to pulsed light and heat may also help shrink oil glands. Your doctor may need to apply photosensitizers to your skin before treatment to make it more sensitive to light. Possible side effects include redness, crusting and peeling, changes in skin tone, and pain. Remember that your dermatologist has expertise in many different areas. He will know what treatments are right for you and, if necessary, can refer you to a plastic surgeon. Try a chemical peel for acne scars. These treatments work by getting rid of old skin cells, allowing new ones to take their places. Their strength varies, from light peels that you can get on your lunch break to deep peels that must be done under anesthesia and require several weeks of recovery. In all cases, make sure you consult with your doctor beforehand and follow their instructions to avoid serious side effects afterwards. Explore laser treatments. For some, over-the-counter treatments won't be enough. You will need to talk to a dermatologist about this. He will know whether you are a good candidate for laser treatment and, if so, what kind of laser to use. Even so, the scar will likely never disappear completely.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Locate the seal. Find a sharp object.

Answer: The seal of the bottle cap should be located at the very bottom of the plastic cap. The seal is a perforated line. Scissors will probably be the easiest and safest, but you could also use a steak knife. Be careful when handling sharp blades.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Show you're listening. Don't ignore her. Use a respectful tone. Accept your punishment without complaining. Be mature.

Answer:
When she's lecturing and talking to you, listen attentively, and don't talk back. Even though this may be hard, it shows you care. She's only trying to help, and if she wants to talk to you, take the time to listen. Respond to what she's saying and take the time to think about it. You can even reassure her that such an incident will not repeat at the end of your talk, so she knows you thought about it and your apology is genuine. When you do answer her questions, don't get an attitude about it. Just answer calmly, directly, and truthfully. For instance, if your mom says, "What were you thinking?" don't say, "I don't know, obviously I'm an idiot" in a sarcastic tone. Try something more along the lines of "I guess I wasn't thinking very clearly. I'll try to do better next time." Doing so will show her you respect her decision. Your mom isn't yelling at you because she dislikes you or hates you. She cares about you, and she doesn't want you making bad choices which will have an impact on your future. She wants you to be safe and learn to be a better person. Don't be mean, or fling hateful insults. Don't stomp or slam doors. You'll only make her angrier, and later, you'll be sad you acted that way. In addition, your mom will respect your maturity and may forgive you faster. If she says, "You always say that and don't follow through!" don't argue. Say you understand, and ask for her help in trying to do better in the future.
