Q: Rub the cube directly over your skin till you feel numb and the cube melts. Try to work with only one or two cubes if possible, to avoid having them melt all over the place. Consider holding each cube with a clean washcloth. As the cube melts, it will be absorbed by the washcloth, reducing further mess. Do this for a while after you've noticed the burn. The cubes will slowly melt but provide longer relief. Keep a dry towel nearby to catch the melting liquid. Once you've used your aloe vera cubes and treated the burn, avoid rubbing your burn with a towel. Instead, let your skin dry naturally. If you plan to use the entire tray, dump the cubes into a separate bowl you can maintain in the freezer. Then refill the tray and freeze so you have another round on hand.
A: Apply one cube to the affected area the minute (or even before) you feel pain. Wrap several cubes in a thin towel and hold over the affected area. Allow the burn to air dry. Refill your ice cube tray for future use.

Q: Sheets are measured based on the size of your mattress. At a department store, sheets should be listed as twin, full, double twin, king, queen, California king, and so on. A sheet's label should give you a sense of whether It's appropriate for your bed. For twin beds, the standard measurement is usually 66 by 90 inches for a flat sheet and 39 times 75 for a fitted sheet. However, some twins are double twins. These are the kinds typically found in a college dorm. For a double twin, go for 39 by 80 inch fitted sheet. You can get by with a flat sheet fitted for a standard twin bed. For a full sized bed, the standard size of a flat sheet is 81x96 inches. For a fitted sheet, go for 54x75 inches. For a king sized bed, you'll need a 108x102 inch flat sheet and a 78x80 inch fitted sheet. For a queen sized bed, you'll need a 90x102 inch queen sheet and a 60x80 inch fitted sheet. Mattresses come in various heights. Some mattresses are thicker than others. When picking sheets, you'll need to know the height of your mattress. Take a tape measure and measure the side of the mattress. Most standard mattresses are 7 to 9 inches high, while some can be as much as 16 to 22 inches high. The pocket size of sheets varies. The pocket size you need depends on the height of your mattress. A mattress that is 7 to 12 inches high will need a 7 to 9 inch pocket depth. A mattress that is 13 to 17 inches high will require a pocket depth of 10 to 15 inches. A mattress between 18 and 25 inches needs a pocket depth 15 to 22 inches.
A: Pick sheets based on your mattress size. Measure your mattress's height. Choose the appropriate pocket size based on height.

Q: This will work best if you have a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or an electric mixer. Pause to scrape the bowl with a spatula, then mix again. This will help eliminate lumps. If you don't have an electric mixer, you have a few options. You can beat the butter by hand, which will make your arm sore and take a little longer, but will still get the job done. Simply put the butter in a large bowl and mash and beat it with the back of a wooden spoon, scraping it off the sides as you go. A food processor with the chopping blade can also work and should make your frosting extra smooth. You don't want to over-whip the cream cheese and risk runny frosting, so stop mixing once the butter and cream cheese are fully blended. Cutting the cream cheese into smaller chunks can help ensure smooth icing. The amount of powdered sugar you end up using can vary, depending on how sweet you like your frosting. Adding more powdered sugar can also stiffen frosting, which can be helpful if you plan to pipe it onto your dessert. Your finished icing should be thick, creamy, and spreadable, with no lumps. If your icing is too thick, thin it with a splash of milk. Only add about a tablespoon at a time so you don't accidentally overdo it. If your icing tastes too sweet and has lost the cream cheese flavor, a little lemon juice can bring out the tanginess.
A: Beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and cream cheese and mix until just combined. Turn the mixer speed to low and gradually add powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.

Q: Hits (also called base hits) are simply the sum of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs. This statistic is easy to find online for professional players. You can use the statistics for a season, a whole career, or any other period of time you're interested in. Just make sure all your statistics come from the same time frame. This is the number of times the player has made an attempt at an hit. This does not include walks, hits by pitch, or sacrifices, since these do not reflect the batter's offensive skill. The answer tells you the battering average, or the fraction of the time that a batter turned an at-bat attempt into a successful hit. For example, if a player had 70 Hits and 200 At-Bats, his Batting Average is 70 200 = 0.350. You can read a batting average of 0.350 as "this player would expect to get 350 hits in 1000 at-bats." Batting averages are almost always rounded this way. When a baseball fan mentions a batting average of "three hundred," she means 0.300. You can calculate batting averages to four or more decimal places, but this doesn't have much use beyond breaking ties.
A:
Find the player's hits. Find the player's at-bats. Divide the number of hits by the number of at-bats. Round to the third decimal place.
