Q: Use a tape measure to measure a stretch of relatively flat ground, at least 30 feet (9.1 meters) in length and preferably 40 ft (12.2 m). This will be your horseshoe court. 40 feet (12.2 m) is the longest distance used in horseshoe throwing, and the most common in tournaments, but if you're playing for fun you can use a shorter distance. If the court is mainly for children, you might want to use a court as small as 15 ft (4.6 m) long, and consider putting two stakes side by side instead of on opposite ends of the court, to lower the chance of children hitting each other with the thrown horseshoes. Use a mallet to drive two stakes into the ground, one at either end of the court. Tilt them about 12 toward each other, not straight into the ground. For a permanent horseshoe field, use long, iron rods, about 36 inches (91 centimeters) long and 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Otherwise, use any long stakes, ideally ones that extend about 15 inches (38 cm) above the ground after they're planted. 12 is a tilt approximately 1/8 of the way from vertical to horizontal. You can skip this step and start playing immediately, or use these common methods to improve the stability and permanence of your court. If you want to minimize the number of slipping and bouncing horseshoes, you can dig a small pit of moist sand or moist blue clay around each stake. To keep the stakes firmly in position, bury a wooden log below the surface and drill an angled hole for the stake. Typically, the game is played by two players or two teams, with one side standing at each stake and throwing at the other. In tournament play, adult men throw from behind a line drawn 37 ft (11.3 m) from the target stake, while women, people 18 and under, and people 70 and older may choose to throw from 27 ft (8.2 m) instead. If you're playing for fun, however, feel free to draw the lines as close as you need to so the players have a decent chance to throw a horseshoe near the target. Horseshoes are heavy and dangerous when thrown. Before throwing, always make sure everyone is standing at least 10 ft (3 m) from the court, and knows that a game of horseshoes is beginning. The first player throws two horseshoes, one at a time, trying to get them as near to the stake as possible. He then moves back away from the court, before the second player begins throwing. Throwing techniques are described in detail below. The second player steps up to the stake with his opponent's horseshoes lying near it. She aims at the opposite stake, throwing two horseshoes. In a team game, the players on each team take turns throwing a pair of horseshoes for their team. In one common scoring system, each player gets 1 point for a horseshoe within 6 inches (15 cm) of the stake, and 3 points for each "ringer," with the arms of the horseshoe encircling the stake. Play until someone wins by reaching 20, 40, or 50 points, or any number you decide in advance. Alternatively, use the more competitive "cancellation" scoring system. Award 1 point each round to the player whose horseshoe is nearest to its stake, or 2 points if a single player throws both horseshoes closer than his opponent's. Ringers still award 3 points, but if both players throw a ringer in the same round, neither player receives points for it. Optionally, you can award 2 points instead of 1 for horseshoes that lean against the stake ("leaners").
A: Find a long area of flat ground. Pound two stakes into the ground. Improve the court (optional). Decide where to stand. Clear the area around the target stake. Have the first player throw two horseshoes. Have the second player throw two horseshoes at the other stake. Keep track of score.

Article: Ask them to explain the purpose and specifics of the prescribed fast. Spiritual fasts usually focus on acknowledgment of and gratitude to a higher power. The specifics of a religious fast differ by religion, and speaking to a spiritual leader can assist the learning process. Increase your knowledge of spiritual fasting by reading books and articles on the topic. Cut back gradually on food and drinks. Spiritual fasts requiring daylong abstention from food and drinks will disrupt your habitual routines, such as drinking coffee in the morning and eating large portions at mealtimes. To ease into the fast, begin cutting back slowly on daily coffee and eat smaller meal portions in the days leading up to the fast. Practice meditation and prayer. Extensive thirst and hunger can cause irritability. Use meditation and prayer to ease the frustrations caused by the inability to eat or drink as desired. Ask others who have undergone the spiritual fast what to expect and how they sustain their commitment to the process. Some spiritual fasts require refraining from work and school for the duration of the fast. Notify your employer or school if you will be absent.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Speak to spiritual leaders. Read scriptures related to fasting. Prepare mentally and physically. Consult with members of the religious tradition. Notify others that you are fasting.

Article: Since even the smallest speck of asbestos can cause health problems, it's a good idea to completely clear out the room that you'll be taking a sample from. If you can't remove all the furniture, then push it far away from the sampling area and cover it all with plastic drop cloths. If you remove a sample from a ceiling, then asbestos particles can become airborne if you have air circulating in the room. To keep this from happening, turn off your heating or cooling system. Shut any windows or doors and keep any fans turned off. Wear coveralls or outer clothing that you won't mind throwing away after taking the sample. You can usually buy disposable coveralls for $5-10 at your local hardware store. Wear heavy disposable gloves as well. And, put on a breathing mask (a paper one is fine) and goggles, too. It's bad to let asbestos touch your skin, so keep totally covered. Remember that you'll need to toss everything that you've worn on the outside, including goggles and gloves. So, don't spend a lot on them. While you are taking the sample and before you've fully cleaned up, don't let anyone else in the room. Get industrial plastic sheeting from your hardware store. Place this sheeting on the floor directly under where you'll take the sample. Use duct tape to secure the sheeting to the floor, so that it won't shift around. Set your ladder directly on top of the sheeting and under where you'll take the sample. When you've finished placing the plastic, get a spray bottle and mist the whole space with water. This helps to keep any dust particles from floating around. It's not necessary to saturate any surfaces, just a quick spraying will do fine.

Remove all furniture and items from the room. Close the windows and shut off any fans. Put on your safety gear. Lay plastic drop cloths on the floor. Mist the room with water.
