INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This trick is an easy way to vanish someone from a video. It doesn't require a live audience but can look professional. You can incorporate this trick into any type of video project you're working on. You'll need a standard video camera and a tripod. If you don't own a tripod you can set one up on a study surface for your video camera. The idea is to not change your camera's the location. For a realistic effect, weave the vanishing effect into your video, so it appears seamless. For example, your video is about a futuristic society who teleport for transportation. In this scenario you'd script the dialogue in a way that the characters are talking about teleporting somewhere, or are preparing to teleport. Shoot the footage up until the moment that you want the characters to disappear. It might help if they countdown, 3-2-1 and then cut the scene. Have everyone in the shot leave the camera's eye. Check on the camera's display monitor to ensure that the shot is only the background. If you roll the film from exactly where you left off, it'll appear as though the characters disappeared from their location. If you want them to reappear: cut the scene and gather all the characters back into their original positions and continue filming. Another way for you to perform magic tricks is by using the camera to relay your magic tricks. Follow the above steps to incorporate various approaches to making somebody disappear. You could even expand beyond people and cause cars to disappear! Be creative and have some fun in the process.

SUMMARY: Understand the video effect. Acquire the supplies. Shoot the initial footage. Remove the characters. Record the background. Record vanishing magic tricks.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: What do you plan on using your boat for? Do you plan on fishing, sailing, cruising, tubing, or water skiing? The type of boat you buy will depend on your answer to those questions. If you plan on using your boat primarily for fishing, look for a fishing boat. If you plan on hanging out at the lake, a pontoon boat is a good idea. If you will use your boat for water sports, a water ski or wake board boat is best. If you plan to go sailing, a sail boat is best. If you are a first time buyer, a boat between 22-24 feet is best. Larger boats are more expensive and more difficult to operate. In addition to knowing the activities you would like to use your boat for, you need to think about other lifestyle factors that will affect your purchase. These factors will influence the size of the boat you purchase, your budget for buying a boat, and other costs that will be associated with owning a boat. Ask yourself some of these questions: Will you be the only person using the boat? Will you need space for your family and friends? How much can you spend on a boat and related expenses (e.g.maintenance, insurance, registration fees, safety courses, storage etc.)? Will you use your boat in lakes, rivers, or oceans? Will you use your boat year round or only during certain times of the year? Where will you keep your boat (e.g. at home, marina, etc.)? There are pros and cons for whichever route you choose to go. A new boat will be under a warranty and is in perfect condition. A used boat will be less expensive, but you may not have a warranty or any manufacturer support. You also will not know if your used boat has been in any accidents or if it has been well maintained throughout the years. New boats are purchased through a dealer. You can purchase a used boat through a dealer, a broker, or a private individual. If you purchase a used boat, have it inspected by a certified marine surveyor.

SUMMARY: Determine what type of boat you want. Consider how the boat will fit in your lifestyle. Decide if you will purchase a new or used boat.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The Neosporin package will have information for particular cases, like what to do for children or when to see a doctor. Read over the instructions before you apply the Neosporin, so you are caring for your wound properly. This will depend on the size of your wound, though strive for about the same amount of Neosporin for the size of your wound. You shouldn't need more than about the size of your fingertip. Try to avoid using too much extra Neosporin. Using too much will oversaturate your wound and waste the Neosporin. Avoid touching the tip of the Neosporin tube with your hands, wound, or other surfaces. Put the cap back on the tube of Neosporin as soon as possible. Gently rub an even layer over the entire affected area. You only need one thin layer each time you apply it. Neosporin is not dangerous, though you don't want to overdo it. If your wound is not healing after using Neosporin for a week, or if you start to see signs that your wound is infected, see your doctor for other treatment options.

SUMMARY: Double-check instructions on the label. Squeeze a small amount of Neosporin out of the tube. Use your finger or a cotton swab to apply Neosporin to your wound. Reapply Neosporin 1 to 3 times a day for no more than 7 days in a row.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Any kind of cardboard will work, as long as it's thick and a pin can push through it. Position the pin so it's in the spot where you want the center of the circle to be. Make sure it's secure in the cardboard so it doesn't shift when you're drawing the circle. The larger the rubber band, the bigger your circle will be. If you want to draw a small circle, use a small rubber band or wrap the rubber band around the pin twice. If you don't have a rubber band, you can tie a piece of string into a circle and use that instead. At this point, the rubber band should be wrapped around both the pin and the pencil. Make sure you keep the rubber band pulled taut while you draw the circle so it's even.

SUMMARY:
Place paper on top of a piece of cardboard. Push a pin through the paper and the cardboard. Put a rubber band around the pin. Place the tip of a pencil in the other end of the rubber band. Pull the rubber band taut and draw a circle with the pencil.
