Click a section that correlates with your position on the map. It's in the bottom-right corner of the page. Click the person-shaped icon in the upper-right side of the window, then click the "Screen Keyboard" switch to place a keyboard on the screen. Since Ubuntu will need to install drivers to work with your keyboard, you won't be able to use your keyboard until it's fully installed. Do so in the "Your name" text box at the top of the window. Entering a name will also create a computer name for your virtual machine, but you can create your own computer name as well by typing it into the "Your computer's name" box. In the "Pick a username" text box, type in the username that you want to use. Type your preferred password into the "Choose a password" text box, then re-type it into the "Confirm your password" text box. It's at the bottom of the page. You can first select login options below the "Confirm your password" text field if need be. This process may take anywhere from a couple of minutes to half an hour depending on the speed of your computer. You won't need to do anything during the installation process. Once you see the Restart Now button, do the following: click the Exit button in the upper-right corner of the window (Windows) or the upper-left corner of the window (Mac), check the "Power off the machine" box, click OK, and then double-click the virtual machine's name. Once your Ubuntu virtual machine is back on, select your name, then enter your password and click Sign In. Ubuntu will load your desktop as though you were using a separate computer.

summary: Select a time zone. Click Continue. Enable the on-screen keyboard. Enter your name. Enter a username. Create a password. Click Continue. Wait for Ubuntu to finish installing. Restart the virtual machine. Log into your computer.

Apricots have a tendency to become discolored when they are exposed to air. By dipping them in a shallow plate filled with a citrus juice like lemon or pineapple juice, you can prevent them from blackening. You can use any ascorbic acid or citrus juice, including powdered ascorbic acid or vitamin C tablets. However, lemon or pineapple juice will give the apricots a pleasing flavor and they are easy to find. You'll only need a splash of juice for each apricot, so a 1 quart (0.95L) jar should be sufficient for a moderately-sized batch. The best containers for freezing apricots are plastic containers with tight-fitting lids, especially if you're going to pack the fruit in syrup. You can pack the apricots as tightly as your like without crushing them. Leave at least 14 inch (0.64cm) of headroom in the container to allow the apricots room to expand. If you're not packing the apricots in syrup, you can place them in freezer-safe bags if you prefer. Using a stick-on label or a permanent marker, you should indicate that the fruit you're freezing is apricot, because it can be hard to differentiate fruit slices once they're frozen. Including the date on the label will help you keep track of when the apricots will expire. Fresh apricots which are not packed in syrup will last in the freezer for up to 3 months. To prepare a heavy syrup for apricots, prepare a mixture of 80% water and 20% sugar. Mix the water and sugar together and bring to a boil, then pour over the raw fruits in the freezer-safe containers. Use 1 cup (240mL) of syrup for each 1 quart (0.95L) of prepared fruit This isn't necessary, but it will prolong how long you can store the apricots in the freezer, and it will help preserve the flavor of the apricots. You can keep apricots in the freezer for up to a year if they are packed in syrup.

summary: Dip the apricots in lemon or pineapple juice. Layer the apricots in freezer-safe containers. Label the containers with the name of the fruit and the date it was prepared. Pack the apricots in syrup for a longer shelf life.

Making your own flower press doesn't take a long time and gives you a designated press so you won't have to scrounge around trying to find heavy books or bricks. Each piece of wood should be 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1cm) thick. You can use plywood or other scraps of wood. If you visit your local home improvement store, you may be able to find scraps of wood for sale that can be used for your press. If you are cutting your own pieces of wood, you can make your press any shape or size that you want. Some people prefer round presses, while some want a smaller or bigger press, depending on how many flowers they need to dry at one time. A 9 by 12in (23 by 30cm) press can hold anywhere from 10-20 blooms, just depending on what kinds of flowers you are pressing. With c-clamps, one side of the clamp stays stationary and the other side can be adjusted by turning the handle to move the screw up or down. Open each clamp wide enough to fit the pieces of wood. Start by positioning one clamp over a corner of the press. Adjust the screw mechanism to bring the sides of the clamp together as tight as possible. Repeat this with the other 3 clamps. Visit your local home improvement store or shop online for your c-clamps. You don't need to get anything fancy, so you should be able to find these clamps for about $5 a piece. If you bought a wooden press rather than making one yourself, there should be bolts for you to utilize rather than having to use clamps. Resist undoing the press and checking on your flowers until at least 3 weeks have passed. If you do, it could disturb the flowers and make it hard to get them back into the same position so that they dry perfectly. To be safe, wait 30 days before opening the clamps and removing the flowers. If you have more flowers you want to press in the meantime, use a second press or one of the other pressing methods so you don't disturb the ones that are in process. This is one of the more time-intensive methods because it doesn't use much weight or heat to press the flowers. If you want to speed up the pressing time, add a few bricks or books on top of the wood.
summary: Buy or cut two 9 by 12in (23 by 30cm) pieces of wood. Secure each corner of the press together with a c-clamp. Let the flowers dry for about 30 days.
