Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Cut a neckline from a tan or brown pillowcase. Create armholes. Create fringe for the costume. Trim the costume, if necessary. Create fringe along the bottom. Attach fringe to the neckline. Decorate as desired.

Answer: Use scissors to cut out a half-moon shape from the folded bottom of a pillowcase. The cut should be large enough to fit the intended wearer's head through. Lay the pillowcase flat and trace the desired shape with a pencil before cutting. Center the half-moon along the edge. For a young child, the half-moon should be about 6 inches (15 cm) long by 3 inches (7.5 cm) tall. For an adult or older child, measure the width of the wearer's neck to determine how long the neckline needs to be. You can use a flat, round object, such as a plate, to trace the half-moon or half-circle. Ask the intended wearer to slip the pillowcase on over his or her head. If the wearer's head cannot fit through the neckline, make it a little larger and try again. If you want to save time, use a tan or brown t-shirt instead of a pillowcase. This will save you the effort of creating necklines and armholes, but you will need to cut the sleeves off of the shirt before proceeding. Cut two more half-moon shapes along both sides of your pillowcase, near the folded top of the material. Make sure that the holes are large enough for the intended wearer to fit his or her arms through. The armholes should be evenly positioned and approximately 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) down from the top of the pillowcase. For a young child, the half-moon shapes should be about 3 inches (7.5 cm) long and 1/2-inch (1.25-cm) wide. For an adult or older child, measure the thickest part of the upper arm to determine how long the hole needs to be. Instruct the intended wearer to slip the pillowcase on. If his or her arms do not fit through the holes, make the holes bigger. Make 1.5-inch (3.8-cm) slits along both armholes to create fringe. For the best results, space the slits about 1/2-inch (1.25-cm) apart. Continue around both armholes so that the fringe goes all the way around. You can also glue small strips of store-bought fringe around the arm holes. A pillowcase tunic should be short enough to fit older kids and adults, but it might be too long for younger children. Have the child try the costume on, so you can decide if it's the right length. If the pillowcase extends below the mid-calf, trim it with scissors. Otherwise, your child may trip over it. Make 3-inch (7.5-cm) slits along the entire open bottom of the pillowcase to create fringe. It helps to lay the pillowcase flat rather than to hold it as you cut. Make sure to use sharp scissors, and space the slits about 1/2-inch (1.25-cm) apart. Be sure to make slits around the entire open bottom of the pillowcase so the fringe spans the entire hem of the tunic. Use fabric glue to attach store-bought or homemade fringe around the neckline.You can make your own fringe by using a 2-inch (5-cm) wide strip of extra pillowcase fabric or brown felt. Cut the store-bought fringe or homemade strip into a half-moon shape the same length as the neckline. For homemade fringe, cut 1.5-inch (3.8-cm) slits along the length of the strip, spacing them 1/2-inch (1.25-cm) apart from one another. Attach the fringe by applying the fabric glue to the non-fringed portion of the fabric strip. The fringes should face down and away from the neck rather than up and over it. One of the simplest ways to decorate the tunic is with colorful triangles along the open base. Cut some craft sponges into 2-inch (5-cm) tall triangles, leaving the edges fairly rough or jagged. Dip the triangles into fabric paint in shades such as red, orange, yellow, and green, and apply it to the tunic in a pattern of your choosing. For a simple look, decorate the open bottom of the pillowcase with a row of upside-down triangles. Place the row about 4 inches (10 cm) from the open end, and space the triangles about 1-inch (2.5 cm) apart from one another. Give your tunic more color by adding a row of right-side-up triangles above your first row of upside-down triangles. Use a second triangle-shaped sponge and a different paint color. Make sure to position each right-side-up triangle between two upside-down triangles. Whatever pattern you choose, repeat it on both sides of the pillowcase. Be sure that the first side is dry before decorating the second, though.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Open your Start menu. Type "firewall" into the search bar. Click the "Windows Firewall" option. Review your firewall settings. Click the "Advanced Settings" option. Exit the Advanced Settings menu when you're finished.

Answer: Windows' default firewall program is located in the "System and Security" folder of the Control Panel app, but you can easily access your firewall's settings by using the Start menu's search bar. You can also tap the Win key to do this. Doing so will automatically search your computer for applications matching your typing. You should see this at the top of the search window. You should see two sections entitled "Private networks" and "Guest or public networks" with green shields to the left of them, signifying that your firewall is active. Clicking on either of these sections will prompt a drop-down menu with details about your current private or public networks. This is to the left of the main menu; clicking it will open your firewall's advanced settings menu, from which you can view or alter the following: "Inbound Rules" - Which incoming connections are automatically allowed. "Outbound Rules" - Which outgoing connections are automatically allowed. "Connection Security Rules" - Baselines for which connections your computer will allow and which ones it will block. "Monitoring" - An overview of your firewall's basic monitoring guidelines. You have successfully checked your PC's firewall settings! Note that you can also click the "Turn Windows Firewall on or off" in the same option menu in which you found Advanced Settings. Be wary of disabling your firewall, especially when connected to a public network.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Keep a firm grip on both chopsticks to keep them from shifting. Maintain gentle pressure on the top chopstick to hold onto your food.

Answer: If necessary, pause for a moment and use your non-dominant hand to reset both chopsticks, remembering to lay the bottom one across your ring finger and the base of your thumb and keep the top one poised like a pencil. The further up or down your chopsticks slide, the more difficult it will become to use them. Hold your chopsticks securely, but don't squeeze them. This will just tire out your hand and cause your technique to deteriorate. Wooden and bamboo chopsticks tend to be better for beginners, since they offer a little more traction against your hand and one another. Open your chopsticks and clamp them down on a bite-sized piece of whatever you're eating. As you raise the bite to your mouth, concentrate on pressing down lightly on the upper chopstick. This will keep the food pinned between the top and bottom chopsticks, ensuring that it doesn't go anywhere. Like anything else, becoming proficient with chopsticks just takes practice. Try moving foods of various shapes, sizes, and textures from one bowl to another slowly. This fun exercise will help you get the fundamentals down. Remember, the bottom chopstick is just there to provide support from beneath. The top chopstick is the one that should be doing all of the work.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know which versions of WordPad this works in. Place your cursor where you want your table to start. Create the first row. Press . Add additional rows. Resize your rows and columns. Add your content. Save the file as a Rich Text Format (.rtf) file.

Answer:
Creating a table using your keyboard is only supported in Windows 8 or newer versions of WordPad. If you are running Windows 7 or earlier, you'll need to try one of the other methods in this article. When you're using your keyboard to insert automatic tables, the table will start on the line you are currently working on. You can start a table anywhere in your document. Use + and - to create the measurements for the first row of cells. Start and end each cell with a +, and use - to indicated how many characters wide the cell is. Don't worry too much about the actual measurements, as you can make adjustments later. See below for an example first row: +----------+-----+---------------+ Enter to generate the first row. Your characters will turn into the first row of the table, with the + signs becoming the borders of the cells. You can start typing text into each of the cells. The cells will resize automatically if the amount of text is too much to fit. Move the cursor to the very end of the first row, so that it is flashing right on the outside of the table border. Press Enter to create a second row for the table. Repeat this process to continue adding rows to the table. Pressing Tab while in the last cell will create a new row. Continuing to press Tab will move to the next available cell, creating a new row when you reach the end of the last row of the table. Once you've added a few rows, you can use your mouse to resize them. Find the border that you want to move and click and drag it. Now that the table has been created, you can start adding your information to it. Simply move from cell to cell and enter the information that you want to add to the table. You can highlight and format the text however you'd like. This format will keep your newly-created table. If you save it as a text (.txt) file, your table formatting will be lost. Rich Text Format files can be opened in most word processors. You can also save it as a OpenOffice XML Document (.docx), which can be opened in Word.
