Q: Measure the dimensions of your garden bed using a tape measure. You will need the length, width, and depth of the bed. Place those measurements into an online soil volume calculator. Find one of these by searching on the Internet. You can try this one: https://www.gardeners.com/how-to/soil-calculator/7558.html Keep in mind that you'll be mixing the soil with compost. So the number you get from the calculator will be the volume you should have after you've combined compost with your soil. The best soil to use is the soil that is native to your area. If you have soil to spare in your yard, simply gather the amount that you need in a bucket or wheelbarrow and move it over to your raised garden bed. If you don't have easy access to soil, you can purchase some topsoil or a faux soil mixture from a gardening supply store. If you're mixing purchased soil with soil from your yard, make sure they both have a similar consistency. Inconsistent soil can cause problems for water drainage. or purchase some. You can make your own compost by decomposing organic material in a compost bin. If you have enough from your personal compost pile, simply use what you have. If you don't compost or need to supplement your supply, purchase compost from a gardening supply store. Read the bag or ask the store assistant to find out what materials went into the compost. The best compost will be made primarily from plant matter, food scraps, and manure. Your goal should be have to an even mixture of compost and soil. Measure the soil and compost before pouring them into the bed to be precise, or simply gauge the amounts by eye. Don't worry about being completely exact. Once you've poured both soil and compost into the bed, mix them thoroughly using either your hands or a gardening tool, like a till. Wear gloves if you're mixing with your hands. Simply pull out rocks whenever you see them and place them somewhere else in your yard. Too many large rocks can make it difficult for plants to grow. How high you fill the bed depends on personal preference and the plants you'll be growing. If your plants will grow straight up, like tomatoes, keep the soil mixture flush with the top of the bed. If you're mainly growing flowers, leave some space between the top of the soil and the top of the bed. This way the bloom of the flower will be more prominently displayed.
A: Calculate how much soil you will need. Gather native soil from your yard if possible. Purchase nutrient-rich mixtures if you can't use native soil. Make your own compost Mix soil and compost using at a 1:1 ratio. Remove any rocks from the mixture. Fill your garden bed to the top or nearly the top.

Q: No one can ever agree on which Ouija superstitions to believe in. You can take these superstitions as dire warnings or funny stories, as you like. Many people believe that a planchette that moves off the board or table has become possessed by an evil spirit. Of course, you can't just pick up your hand when this starts happening... a planchette left on the board might be dangerous too! Other supposed signs of an evil spirit include a planchette that moves to all four corners of the board, a planchette that moves in a figure eight, or a planchette that counts down through all the numbers or letters of the alphabet. Makeshift planchettes, especially drinking glasses, have a whole lot of extra superstitions. Some people never drink from a glass that's been used as planchette, while others only ban certain drinks, such as alcohol. Hold the drinking glass over a burning candle before using it as a planchette. Cleanse any planchette with your favorite ritual, whether that involves bible verses, pagan invocations, or herbal preparations at the right phase of the moon. Keep it clean in the mundane world too, with a little dusting now and then.
A: Follow whichever instructions you like. Beware planchettes that fall off the board. Watch out for dangerous motions. Treat objects used as planchettes carefully. Cleanse your planchette.

Q: This is what most people think of when they hear about MLM companies. If you have a product that can be sampled and demonstrated, this might be a good way to sell it. Invite 50 percent more people than you think will actually attend. Offer free gifts and special pricing on products. Have contests during the party where people answer questions and win prizes. Make the party fun. Encourage guests to bring friends so you can recruit distributors while you sell your product. Get together with local distributors of your product for Friends and Family or Customer Appreciation events. Choose a festive location such as a winery, a boutique hotel or a party cruise boat. Share product stories, do product demos and have drawings and prizes. Offer special promotions to encourage purchases. Pack the room with friends, family, customers and their friends and family. Schools, churches and local networking events allow vendors to purchase booths for selling products. Have a raffle to draw traffic to your booth. Offer discounts and incentives to purchase. Engage customers in conversations. Collect everyone's contact information. Generate product sales and collect leads for your downline. Include promotional materials in everything you mail. For example, include product information when mailing bills, personal letters and product shipments. Send flyers to advertise new products. Include a calendar of special events. Send coupons to encourage repeat business. Keep a calendar of customers' birthdays or anniversaries. Send cards for their birthdays, holidays and other special occasions. Don't forget to include a coupon and other promotional information. Customers like feeling remembered and appreciated. A birthday card with a coupon is likely to generate a sale. Establish yourself as an expert or authority. Educate attendees about an issue that concerns them. Don't make selling your product the primary focus of your speech. Rather, mention your product and how it can help them. Distribute promotional materials that notify customers of upcoming events and tell them where they can purchase your product. On your channel, educate customers about the benefits of your product instead of just talking about the product itself. For example, if you are selling makeup, create videos teaching makeup techniques. Casually mention your products throughout the video, but keep the focus on the educational content. In the end, direct visitors to information about purchasing or finding out more about your product. Post product reviews on your blog. Explain what your product does, how it works and what the benefits are. Also, create educational content that demonstrates how customers can use your product. For example, if you sell home utilities, create content that educates people about how to conserve energy or reduce their monthly utility expenses. Include a sales page where customers can purchase your product. Post product reviews, ads and educational content on the page. Include links to your blog and YouTube channel. Also, link back to the sales page on your distributor website. Start groups where customers can discuss how they use your products. For example, if you sell weight loss products, have a Facebook group that allows customers to post success stories, questions and product reviews. Don't spend all of your time recruiting. Remember that the way everyone actually makes money is from commissions on products sold. If everyone did nothing but recruit others to join the network, nobody would earn any commissions. Just as you are counting on those in your downline to sell products, the distributors above you in your network are counting on you to do the same.
A: Host home parties. Host team events. Attend trade shows. Stuff envelopes with promotional materials. Send greeting cards. Speak at social, business and civic group events. Start a YouTube channel. Create a blog. Create a Facebook fan page. Devote time to selling your product.

Q: You will have three numbers to use in your calculation. For example, say that Joe Smith plays for 6 innings in a 9-inning game and allows 3 men to score. For this, divide the number of earned runs by the number of innings played. Following our example, it would be 3/6, giving us the number .5. That means we would take our number of .5 and multiply it with 9, giving us 4.5. Depending on your preference, you can calculate ERA two ways. The first (shown above) is ERA= total innings(earned runs / innings pitched). You can also formulate it as ERA = earned runs x total number of innings / innings pitched. Test your answer using the alternate method.
A:
Gather your information. Make the first calculation. Multiply this number with the total number of innings. Test your number.
