Summarize the following:
The central rotor of your centrifuge will have an even number of holes spaced around its perimeter. Choose a hole and firmly insert a filled microtube. Then, insert a balance tube into the hole exactly opposite the hole containing your solution-filled microtube. Adding microtubes 2 at a time will ensure that you're adding an even amount of weight to either side of the centrifuge. By adding 1 equally weighted tube on either side of the centrifuge, you'll keep the center of gravity exactly in the middle of the centrifuge rotor. Insert these new microtubes halfway in between the 2 microtubes you've already added. So, if you added the first 2 microtubes at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, add 2 new microtubes at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock. Create a system so that you know which tubes are microtubes and which are balance tubes (if the liquids are the same color). You could put a small sticker on top of the sample-filled microtubes, or use a blue marker to color a small dot on top of the balance tubes. You can add as many microtubes as the centrifuge has holes using this system. Continuing the example, after you've added microtubes at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock, you could add 2 more at 2 o'clock and 8 o'clock and another pair at 11 o'clock and 5 o'clock. If you have an odd number of microtubes, you'll need to balance the centrifuge using an alternate configuration.

summary: Insert a balance tube opposite each microtube in the centrifuge. Rotate the centrifuge rotor 90 and add 2 more microtubes. Continue adding equidistant microtubes and balance tubes opposite one another.

Cut the brick of Velveeta cheese into cubes that are roughly 1/2-inch to 1-inch (1.25 to 2.5 cm) around. Cut the Velveeta into evenly sized pieces to make sure that it melts down at an even pace. Smaller cubes will melt faster than large cubes. Fill the bottom half of a double boiler with 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.6 cm) of water. Place this portion on the stove and heat it on medium-high for a couple of minutes, or until the water starts to boil. If you do not have a double boiler, use a large saucepan for the bottom portion and a stainless steel bowl capable of resting around the mouth of the saucepan for the top portion. Make sure that the water level is not high enough to touch the top half of your double boiler. After the water boils, you should reduce the heat as needed to keep the water at a steady simmer. Add the butter to the top half of the double boiler and place the top half over the bottom. Stir the butter using a wooden mixing spoon, heating it indirectly until it melts down completely and spreads over the bottom of the pan. The butter is not strictly essential for this method, but it is still strongly recommended since it gives the Velveeta an extra layer of protection against the heat and helps prevent the cheese product from burning. Toss the cubes of Velveeta into the top part of the double boiler, as well. Mix them continuously with your mixing spoon until they melt down into a thick, creamy sauce. Note that you do not need to add milk to this version, so the resulting sauce will be thicker than the melted cheese sauce produced by the saucepan method. You still need to stir the cheese continually as it melts to make sure that it does not burn or otherwise melt unevenly. If you let the melted Velveeta sit out at room temperature for too long, it can start to solidify again. It is best to use the Velveeta cheese while it is still warm and freshly melted.

summary: Cut the Velveeta cheese into cubes. Boil water in the bottom part of a double boiler. Melt the butter in the top part of the double boiler. Add and melt the cheese. Serve warm.

When resolving a dispute between others in the workplace, focus on the facts of the situation. Avoid making character assessments or personal comments. Management should always be impartial when reviewing employee conflict and avoid personal relationships that can create bias. Open a dialogue between the parties involved. Often conflicts arise from miscommunication. Be a mediator and open dialogue between the parties in conflict, helping them come to a constructive conclusion to the issue. Be firm but fair. People aren't always going to get along and some personality types clash in collaborative settings. Set down ground rules for employee comportment, but don't act rashly, especially if this is a first time conflict. If the conflict is between yourself and an employee, discuss the issues one-on-one. If there is a conflict between the team and management goals, call a team meeting. Avoid confronting and calling out individual team members about sensitive issues in group meetings. Deal with the issue as soon as it comes to your attention. Otherwise, it could escalate and negatively impact employee performance. Just make sure not to address the issue too quickly, before you've had time to consider a course of action. . Encouragement and motivation are powerful tools when used correctly. Remind individuals of what they did correctly while also criticizing how they reacted poorly. Offer criticism that solves problems. Instead of focusing in on what an individual did wrong, ask "How could this have been approached more productively?" Be specific and relevant to the point of the discussion. It's easy to get side-tracked, but be sure to keep the discussion focused on a sustainable and positive outcome to the conflict. When conflict happens and resolution occurs, praise teamwork and collaboration and recognize the people who made it happen. If the conflict is between two employees, remind both of their strengths and weaknesses and how glad you are that the situation is resolved. If the conflict is between the team and management, recognize the key compromisers and team players who achieved resolution via an email memo to the whole team.
summary: Be impartial and listen to understand. Address issues with the appropriate parties. Don't wait to resolve the issue. Give constructive criticism Broadcast praise.
