Form the tuna mixture into 3 or 4 patties. Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a nonstick skillet. Fry the patties in hot oil until golden brown. Serve."
article: Transfer the tuna to a large bowl. Flake with a fork. You can easily do this in a food processor. Alternatively, you can use ready-made bread crumbs. Make sure to chop them quite finely. You can do this by hand or in a food processor. To the tuna, add the celery, onion, egg lemon juice and salt. Then decide which optional flavorings to include: For herby tuna fish patties, add parsley, dill and garlic powder. For spicy tuna fish patties, add dijon mustard, tabasco and chopped green onions or chives. For creamy tuna fish patties (with a kick) add cream of mushroom soup and some Worcester sauce. Tuna patties are very versatile, so you can also experiment with your own combination of herbs, spices, vegetables and other flavorings! Use a fork to mix all of the ingredients together, until they achieve an even consistency. Take about 1/4 of the patty mixture in your hands and roll it to form a ball, then use the palm of your hand to flatten it into a patty. Do the same with the remaining mixture, then place the patties on a baking tray lined with wax paper. If you have time, allow the patties to chill for an hour in the refrigerator. This helps them to hold their shape during cooking. Olive or sunflower oil will both work, although a little butter is great for adding flavor. For healthier patties, use a low-fat cooking spray. This should only take 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve the tuna patties with a wedge of lemon, some tartar sauce or sprinkled with a bit of dill. You can also serve the patties on slider buns to make tuna burgers.

Consider how you want your guests to interact. Gather your materials for a fire. Make sure that you use dry wood. Place your materials in your fire pit. Light the fire. Maintain your fire. Put out your fire."
article: Check with building officials and local codes to ensure that you won't break any laws. Every city is different and yours may have certain codes which only allow a certain type of fire pit. Get in contact with the planning offices in your area to see if any restrictions apply. Your pit should be far away from any flammable structure. With an in-ground fire pit you need to make sure it's built in a clear area. It should be a safe distance away from your home, deck, overhangs, trees, etc. You should also keep your fire pit away from heat sensitive plants, dry grass, bales of hay, open firewood, and other materials that could ignite. If you don't already have your in-ground fire pit built, check wind patterns in the area before you build. You want to position your pit so that it doesn't blow smoke into your home. You may want to position your fire pit in an out-of-the-way place for late night intimate gatherings. Or, you may want it more centrally located to encourage conversation and interaction between your guests. Wherever you decide to place it, make sure that you pick a safe location. If you haven't built the in-ground fire pit, make sure you pick a place that will stay clear of any plant life for years. It's best to pick an open flat area for your guests as well. If you are on a slope it might be more uncomfortable to sit around the pit. If you are in a more enclosed area, smoke from the pit might be an issue. The easiest way to get a fire going in your in-ground fire pit is to sort your wood, kindling, and tinder. To help you build the best fire, sort your materials by size. Place all your large logs together, followed by your smaller logs, kindling, and tinder. If you plan to cook any food over your fire, don't use any starter logs or gels. These items contain chemicals which get into the smoke and can get on your food. If there's any moisture in the wood, especially the larger logs, it will be harder to start your fire. You can easily find tinder in your own yard from dry grass and leaves that you've raked up. Otherwise, newspaper works well. It's also a great idea to have water on hand for putting your fire out. Because you can't reach under any sort of grate in your in-ground fire pit you need to build an upside down fire. An upside down fire means placing your larger logs in first and stacking smaller logs, tinder, and kindling on top. Place your large logs in the bottom of your pit, and spread the logs out to cover the base. Then, place your smaller logs on top in a criss-cross pattern to allow for airflow. Add your tinder. Create a small pile or ball with your tinder. You can even tie it up with some string if you need. If your tinder is too spread out it won't create enough heat at once to ignite the rest of your materials. Place smaller twigs and other kindling on top of the tinder bundle in a tepee-like fashion. These small branches will quickly catch fire and help to ignite your larger logs. The tepee shape of your kindling will create a small pocket of heat from your tinder and ensure that your kindling gets an even burn. Never use pressure treated wood. It emits toxic fumes. You can tell if the wood is pressure treated by its green tint. Be sure not to overload the fire pit with wood. You don't want the flames to get too high. When lighting your fire, the safest way is to you use a long match or lighter. Light your tinder and watch the fire grow. You may want to light your tinder in a few places to help the fire get going. If you are using any newspaper, you can also shove balls of it between your larger logs and light the newspaper. Softwoods such as pines and firs are easier to light and are good for getting your fire started. As your fire begins to burn it will create coals and embers. When the flames begin to die down, add larger logs to keep your fire burning. After the initial ten or twenty minutes, most of your kindling will have burned up along with your tinder. These bits of material will start to form natural coals and embers which still provide plenty of heat. Use a poker or large stick to move your coals and embers together. Add some oxygen by blowing on the coals to add more heat. You can now start to place larger logs on top of these coals to keep your fire going. Hardwoods like oak, ash, cherry, maple, and poplar are great for adding to a hot fire. These woods last longer than softwoods but are harder to light. Once you're done enjoying your fire pit, properly put out the fire. If possible, allow the fire to burn down completely to ash. Pour water over the fire and make sure you drown all the embers. Keep pouring until you don't hear any more hissing. If you don't have water, cover the embers and ashes with dirt and sand which is preferably damp or wet. Stir the ashes and embers. A shovel works well here. Once everything in the pit is wet and cold, you can use the shovel to scrape the materials out of the pit. In most areas you can dispose of your ash in your regular garbage. Check with your local municipality for any specific laws or codes in your area.

Life in a circus isn't all glamorous as it's made out to be. If you're working with a traveling circus, you might have to deal with moving around a lot, and you will probably have to do your own makeup and need to buy or make your own costumes. Working with circuses requires a lot of dedication just to stay optimistic for shows. If you're working for a legitimate, big business circus, most odds and ends (like costumes) will be handled for you. But if you're working on a smaller circuit, you may need to take certain expenses on yourself. Consider it the price to pay for doing something you love. You will, without a doubt, run across people that will say "No." You will be told to give up, people won't hire you, and you will get injured or run the risk of being injured if you are a performer. It's very important you be able to push through these walls or perhaps trapeze your way over them. If you are dedicated and love performing, you will find a job that works for you, and you will be able to continue performing. No one makes it on their first try. You have to hear a chorus of rejections before you finally "get your break." It could take months, it could take years, but you've got to trust that eventually it'll happen. If you don't believe in you, no one else will. Being a circus performer is almost like being an athlete your career will be over well before you feel like you're "old." And when you do near the end of your run, your body will have been rung through the wringer. You could be in tiptop shape or you could need two knee replacements. It won't be easy, but hopefully the physical stress is worth it. In fact, your body basically means your job. If you don't take care of it, you could be out of a gig in no time. It's important to sleep, eat right, stay healthy, and, above all, stay safe. The last thing you want to do is compromise your career because you made poor decisions. How does circus work pay? Although it differs from circus to circus, it mostly depends on the job, the show, and the length of which you're working. For example, a circus might pay their performers at the end of each week, or (although it's less common) after the show closes. If you're a performer that hires out to circuses, then you'll mostly be paid after the job ends, although they can choose to pay you weekly, sometimes even after each show (although that is highly uncommon, too). This aside, you should probably want to work in a circus for your love of the work first, the money second. What's more, every role gets paid differently, too. If you're at the bottom of the ladder, you may be getting $300 bucks a week; if you're a featured performer like an acrobat or a contortionist, you could be making between $40,000 to $70,000 a year. Don't forget you're getting free room and board, too. The perks just keep on coming.
