Now that it's time to bring your character to life, start by giving them a name. They are, after all, a unique being with their own personality, look, and qualities. Shouldn't they have an equally awesome name? Consider using their unique qualities when choosing a name (think, Black Beauty). Speaking of Black Beauty, alliteration can be a strong tool when naming your character. Many iconic characters in the cartoon world such as Mickey Mouse, Daffy Duck, etc., have made good use of alliteration. It's less common in literature. Part of bringing your character to life, entails giving them a future or something to work towards. In Animal Farm Napoleon the pig originally has a goal of a better life for all the animals, his true personality shows as his goals change. Character's goals can shape his personality, so don't miss this important step. Similar to their goals and dreams, a character should also have a past. This not only helps to define who they are today but gives the audience something to sympathize/empathize with. You don't have to dwell on the character's past. Bambi is a good example of this. Ultimately, his sad past helped to shape him into the confident and courageous leader that he became. However, his past wasn't necessarily the theme throughout. More than anything, the fictional characters that you create need to feel like real, living creatures to the readers.

summary: Name your character. Define the character's goals and dreams. Give them a history.

To measure the length of one section of countertops, run a measuring tape flush along the back edge of the section from one end to the other end. The beginning and end of a section is marked by a wall, edge of a cabinet, or an appliance. Add 34 inch (1.9cm) to the length, and round the measurement to the nearest 18 inch (0.32cm). Record this measurement on your diagram or a separate sheet of paper. Repeat this process until you have measured the length of each section of your countertops. Do not stop measuring when you reach a sink, but continue to measure beyond the sink until you reach the end of a cabinet, appliance, or a wall. If you have an L-shaped countertop, measure the long side first, followed by the short side from the back edge. Add the total measurements together to treat it like one countertop. Use a measuring tape to measure the width of each section of countertop. Run the measuring tape from the back of the countertop to its finished front edge. Round the measurement to the nearest 18 inch (0.32cm) and record this measurement on your diagram or a separate sheet of paper. Repeat this process until you have measured the width of each section of countertop. If you have a backsplash, account for its dimensions in your final measurement. In order to receive an estimate from a contractor for your new countertops, you need to provide an approximate calculation of your existing countertops' square footage. Calculate the area (or square inches) of each section by multiplying the length times the width of each section (Length x Width = Area). Calculate the total square inches by adding together the areas of each section. Calculate the square footage by dividing the total square inches by 144 (Total Square Inches ➗ 144 = Total Square Footage).

summary: Measure the length of your existing countertops in inches. Measure the width of your existing countertops in inches. Calculate the square footage.

The test above isn't the only way to determine whether the ignition coil in your vehicle is functioning as it should. If you have access to a piece of electrical equipment called an ohmmeter, which measures electrical resistance, you can measure the effectiveness of your ignition coil in a definitive, quantifiable way, rather than in the somewhat subjective way described above. However, to begin this test, you'll need to remove the vehicle's ignition coil so that you can easily access its electrical terminals. Refer to your service manual for precise instructions on removing your ignition coil. Usually, you'll need to disconnect it from the distributor wire, then unscrew it from its mounting with a wrench. Ensure your vehicle is turned off and has had a chance to cool before beginning this process. Every vehicle's ignition coil has its own unique specifications in terms of the electrical resistance within the coil. If your coil's actual resistance levels fall outside of these specifications, you'll know that your coil is damaged. Usually, you'll be able to find the resistance specifications unique to your vehicle by consulting your service manual. However, if you can't find it here, you may find success by contacting your dealership or by searching online vehicular resources. Generally speaking, most automotive coils will have a resistance reading of about .7 - 1.7 ohms for the primary winding and 7,500 - 10,500 ohms for the secondary winding. The distributor will have three electrical contacts - two on either side and one in the middle. These may be either external (jutting out) or internal (sunken in) - it makes no difference. Turn on your ohmmeter and touch one lead to each of the outer electrical contacts. Record the resistance reading - this is the resistance of the coil's primary winding. Note that some newer models of ignition coil have contact configurations that differ from this traditional arrangement. Consult your vehicle's manual for information if you are unsure which contacts correspond to the primary winding. Next, keep one lead on one of the outer contacts and touch the other to the central, inner contact of the ignition coil (where the main wire to the distributor connects). Record the resistance reading - this is the resistance of the coil's secondary winding. Ignition coils are delicate components of a vehicle's electrical system. If either the primary or secondary windings are even a little outside of your vehicle's specifications, you'll want to replace your ignition coil, as your current one is likely damaged or malfunctioning.
summary: Remove the ignition coil from the vehicle. Find the resistance specifications for your ignition coil. Position the leads of the ohmmeter on the poles of the primary coil. Position the leads of the ohmmeter on the poles of the secondary coil. Determine whether the readings you recorded fall within your vehicle's specifications.
