Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stand close to what you're punching.

Answer: The one-inch punch is thusly named because the punch is thrown from an inch - actually, three to six inches, if you count the width of your fist. To execute the punch, it's necessary to be quite close to the person or object you're punching. Gauge the distance by stretching out your arm toward your target; your elbow should be slightly bent at a bit less than a 45-degree angle. If you can straighten your arm without touching it, you're too far away; you'll have to lunge forward to hit your target, which will take away from the force of your punch. Move a little closer. If your elbow is bent at a right angle, or close to it, you need to step back a bit. The term "one-inch" is actually an estimate here. The point is to punch from a very close distance, not from exactly one inch. After practicing the punch a few times, you should be able to figure out the right distance from your target without having to extend your arm beforehand.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check your company's policy regarding verbal references. Agree to provide a verbal reference. Ask the person information to use for your reference. Schedule a phone conversation. Compose notes for the phone reference. Answer questions thoroughly and honestly. Incorporate positive and descriptive words and phrases. Avoid personal subjects. Finish the reference conversation.

Answer: Some companies only allow employees to release basic information such as employment tenure. Some may only allow for written references. Confirming your company's reference policy can help ensure that you provide the best possible verbal reference. If an employee or colleague asks you to give her a reference, make sure you can positively accept the request. If you have had a good experience with the person and can support her application, then offer to provide a reference with the potential employer. Don't offer to serve as a reference if you cannot say something positive about the person. You don't want to subvert her chances of getting the job. Only agree to speak to a potential employer if you've worked with the person for a while. It may be difficult to answer questions about a person or her skills in a few months. Make sure that you are the appropriate person to provide the reference, which may require checking with your boss or the company's policies on references. You'll need some basic information from the person about the job for which they're applying and any other relevant data that you should know. Request information about the candidate's potential job and an updated resume. You may even want an assessment of how she thinks she contributed to your company or projects and how she could benefit her new workplace. You should also collect any information pertinent to the person's job for you such as performance reviews. Consider reading through your correspondence with the person to get an assessment of their professionalism and how they work. You can also use performance reviews for this purpose. Most verbal references are provided by phone and you'll want to schedule a time to speak with the candidate's potential employer. Setting aside a specific time to discuss the candidate can help ensure that you are able to give a comprehensive, professional, and positive reference. Either have the candidate give your contact information to the potential employer or ask the candidate for the appropriate data at the new company. Make sure you schedule the appointment for a time when you are relaxed and not pressed to make a meeting. Once you've had a chance to schedule a meeting and gather some pertinent information, sketch some notes about the candidate. This can help ensure that you don't forget important information about the candidate's skills or behavior during the conversation. Since you will not know what questions the potential employer may ask, make sure to write notes on various aspects of the candidate including how you know them and for how long, in what capacity you worked together, and an assessment of their skills. A verbal reference will often require you to answer questions a potential employer has about the candidate. Having notes and answer the questions as detailed and honestly as possible may help the candidate land the job. Make sure that you don't exaggerate the person's qualifications. You don't necessarily have to say "he's the greatest ever", but can objectively say "He's one of the best colleagues/ employees I've ever had." Remember that hesitating on an answer may make it seem like you're being dishonest. When you're answering the potential employer's questions, make sure to incorporate words that make the candidate attractive. This can give the candidate the edge over other people for the job. You can use a variety of verbs, nouns and adjectives to describe the person. The more descriptive you can be, the more helpful it is to the potential employer. For example, you can says things such as "Christopher is a very creative problem-solver," or "she communicates her ideas clearly." Make sure to use language that also incorporates skills the person will need in their new position. Only talk about things relevant to the person's job performance, such as his superior leadership skills or ability to resolve disputes among colleagues. Don't talk about his personal life because it may make himand you-- seem less professional in the eyes of prospective employers. Don't discuss anything personal including religion, marital status, age or health. Providing personal information could jeopardize the candidate's chances of getting hired. It may also be illegal depending on the type of information you divulge. Conclude the phone reference once you've answered the potential employer's questions. You may ask questions if you think it is necessary or will shed further light on the person. Make sure to thank the potential employer and offer to provide further information if necessary.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Collect some hot water in a jar. Dissolve a crystal chemical in hot water until the solution is saturated. Filter the solution. Place a small amount of the saturated solution on a plate. Suspend the seed crystal in a clean jar. Pour the saturated solution into the container with crystal seed. Refresh the solution every two weeks. Coat the surface of the crystal with a lacquer.

Answer:
Collect approximately 100mL (.44 cups) of hot water. The water doesn't need to be boiling. Tap water will work fine. Just leave the tap on for a minute until the water is very hot. To get the purest crystals, begin with a hot solution and allow it to cool slowly by leaving it at room temperature. This slow process will allow the crystal to reject any impurities as the molecules are arranged. The solution will be saturated when it can no longer dissolve more crystals. You will probably need about 60 grams (2.1oz.) of chemical. Add more until the crystal no longer dissolve. There are a number of chemicals you can select depending on the color of crystal you want to make. Some of the chemicals, like borax, may be around your house or at the local grocery store. Other ingredients are available to order online. Borax can be used to produce clear crystals. Copper sulfate can be used to create bright blue crystals. Purple chrome alum can be used to create purple crystals. Pouring the solution through a filter will help to get rid of any excess crystals that could not be dissolved in the solution. Take a plastic funnel and place a coffee filter in the funnel. Then pour the solution into a separate container through the funnel. Now you should have a clear solution with no crystals floating around in the liquid. Leave it for 24 hours. Once you have some small crystals scrape them off the plate with a butter knife. You can use these small crystals as seeds to produce larger crystals. You can poke two small holes in the lid and tie one end around the seed crystal and tie the other end to the top of the jar. The container should be clean so the crystals attach to your seed crystal and not the container. Pick any container that has a good cover that seals. Or make a cover by suspending your crystal from a flat piece of cardboard. Evaporation will help speed up the formation of crystals. Wait as the solution evaporates and your crystal grows larger. Be patient. It can take weeks to grow a large crystal. Keep the object in a cool, shaded area. Make sure it is someplace where the container won't be moved or disturbed too often. Over time, small crystals will begin to form in the solution, so it will be necessary to put your seed crystals into a new container. Remove the seed crystals and place them on a paper towel. Pour the solution through a coffee filter into the new container. Scrape out any crystals in the old container. You can save them and use them as seed crystals for the next time you want to grow a crystal. If you need more solution, dissolve some more crystal powder in hot water and add the solution to your new container. To protect the crystal from being destroyed by exposure to moisture, cover the crystal with a coat of lacquer. Use a brush to apply an even coat over the entire surface. You can also try coating the surface with a layer of nail polish to protect it.
