Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Do not pick up your gerbil by his tail. Refrain from picking up your gerbil from above. Avoid placing your gerbil on his back. Do not punish your gerbil.

Answer: This cannot be emphasized enough! Gerbils have very thin skin on their tails. If you try to lift him up by his tail, the skin would slip off of his tail, exposing the bones. If the skin comes off, your veterinarian would need to amputate that portion of the tail. Otherwise, the damaged portion of the tail would slough off. The portion of the tail that you grab may actually break off as a defense mechanism. In the wild, this allows gerbils to slip away from predators that grab them by the tail. Unfortunately, your gerbil's tail will not regrow once broken off. In the wild, a predator bird will swoop down from overhead and scoop up a gerbil with its claws. If you reach down and wrap your hand around your gerbil, he will probably think you're a predator. To avoid being seen as the bad guy, scoop him up from underneath, rather than grabbing him from above. When you have picked up your gerbil, do not try to lay him on his back in your hand. In the wild, gerbils typically do not lie down with their bellies in the air. If you try to put your gerbil in this position, it will feel very uncomfortable to him. He may struggle so much to get out of the position that he injures himself. If your gerbil starts to nibble at your hand or looks like he wants to jump, do not punish him by yelling at him or flicking his nose. Punishing him will serve only to make your gerbil fearful of you, which would weaken your bond with him. Instead, give him a gentle puff of air.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Click the Apple menu and select "App Store." Click the "Updates" tab. Click "Update" next to any available update to install it. Click "Update All" to download and install every available update. Check for updates after installing the updates you had available.

Answer: The Apple menu is in the upper-left corner of the screen. You can now use the App Store to check for the latest versions of your App Store apps, as well as install any security and stability updates for OS X. These changes were made in OS X Yosemite, so if you're running an older version of OS X, see the Installing Updates in Legacy OS X Versions section below. You'll find this at the top of the App Store window. The button display a number showing how many updates are available. The update will begin downloading immediately, and will install as soon as it finishes downloading. You'll see both app updates and system updates in the list of available updates (if any are available). If you have a lot of updates available, click the "Update All" to download and install all of them at once. Some updates will only appear after an older update has been installed. Open the Updates tab again after you've installed all available updates to see if more are now available.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Watch the show. Listen to music. Be aware of your singing range. Pick a song that showcases who you are. Choose a song that proves your strengths.

Answer: You can't audition for American Idol without at least being a little familiar with the show. Look at old auditions online and check out what people sang. Pay especially close attention to what the successful singers sang. If they got through to the next round, they probably made a good song choice. Try singing "At Last" by Etta James, like Kelly Clarkson did in her American Idol audition. If you're a fan of Katharine McPhee, sing "God Bless the Child" by Billie Holiday, like she did in her first audition. In order to pick a song for your audition, you first have to be aware of all the songs there are to choose from. Go for a long walk with your iPod and try to listen to as many of your favorite songs as you can. Keep the radio on in the car when you're on the road. Cram in as much music as possible and chances are that you'll hear something that inspires you. "Kiss From a Rose" by Seal is a great choice for an audition song. It's often sung in the group round, so it's not frequently used for initial auditions. Be like past winner Jordin Sparks and sing "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion. All singers have a different range of notes they are able to hit comfortably and some they are able to hit not so comfortably. For your audition song, pick something that sits comfortably within your vocal range. You'll know it fits comfortably because you won't have to strain to hit any of the notes and your voice will sound magical. To see if you sound good singing the song, try singing it out loud, over and over. Practice it at home, and then when you're ready, bust it out at karaoke. If you find a song you like, but it's not in your range, take it to a music teacher and ask them to help you adjust the key. Think about the character you want to be cast as on the show. Do you want to be the underdog? The diva? The ingenue? The character you pick should be close to who you are in real life. When you know how you want to be seen, pick a song that corresponds with your character. If you want to be seen as the underdog, choose an uplifting power ballad. If you want to be the diva, pick something by Whitney Houston or Alicia Keys. For a great Whitney Houston song, try "I Have Nothing." For great Alicia Keys songs, try "No One" or "Fallin" or "If I Ain't Got You." Don't pick something too hard if there's a chance you might mess it up. Don't pick something too easy, because that's not very impressive. If you are really good at hitting high notes, pick a song with a lot of high notes. If you are a confident belter, choose a song that allows you to belt. If you're a great belter, try "I'm Not Going" from Dreamgirls. Be aware of your weaknesses too. If you know that your vibrato is not that great, don't pick a song that will force you to display that. Showcase your strengths and make your weaknesses invisible.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Keep the plant warm. Place your chilis in a bright and sunny window. Keep the soil moist as it dries out. Feed the plants every couple of weeks. Transplant the chili plant as it outgrows its pot. Harvest chilis when the peppers become shiny and bright.

Answer:
Chili peppers originated in Mexico, so most of them thrive in warm climates. To ensure your chilis survive indoors, you'll have to maintain a daytime temperature of about 80 F (27 C), and a nighttime temperature of about 70 F (21 C). Instead of keeping your entire house at this temperature, you can keep the plant warm by: Keeping it in a greenhouse Installing an artificial light 3 inches (7.6 cm) above the plant Placing the plant on a heating mat Once the chilis are established and have been transplanted the first time, you can move them to a bright window that gets lots of direct sunlight. Not only does the plant need several hours of sunlight each day, but the heat from the light will also help to keep the plant warm. Water the chili plant so the soil is moist. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Chilis like damp soil, but overwatering can lead to rot and fungal growth, and it can also affect the heat level of the peppers, making them less hot than they would be. Your chili peppers will benefit from regular fertilizer. Every two weeks, combine a balanced fertilizer with some water and feed the plant. A balanced fertilizer is one that contains equal amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium such as 10-10-10 or 2-2-2. A fish and kelp emulsion or concentrated liquid fertilizer is a good option. In winter, the plant may enter a dormant phase and stop growing, flowering, and fruiting. Cut back to monthly feedings if this happens, and resume twice monthly feedings when the plant goes back into an active growing phase. When the chili plant becomes too tall and starts to fall over, it's time to transplant. Fill a pot that's one or two sizes larger with a few inches (several centimeters) of potting mix. Gently remove the plant from the smaller pot and transfer it to the larger one. Hold the plant steady as you cover the root ball and most of the stem with fresh soil. For smaller chili varieties, your plant will eventually end up in a 10- to 12-inch (25- to 30-cm) pot. A larger chili plant may need an 18-inch (46-cm) pot. Your chili plant will mature and bear fruit within about three months of the first transplant. The size of the fruit will depend on the variety, and your chilis could be anywhere from an inch (2.5 cm) to 8 inches (20 cm) in length. Harvest ripe chilis by cutting the stem just above the fruit with a knife or scissors. To protect your hands from the hot oils in the chilis, wear gloves when you harvest and cook with the peppers.
