INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This method creates text with each letter of a word below the last, like a tall, narrow street sign. If you're trying to rotate the letters so you have to turn your head to read them, skip down to the other instructions. A text box makes it much easier to adjust the position and orientation of text. Add it to your Word document as follows: Word 2007 or later: On the ribbon menu above your document, click the Insert tab, then Text Box, then Draw Text Box. Click and drag in the document. Word for Mac 2011 or later: Select Home on the ribbon menu, then click Text Box on the right hand side. Click and drag in the document. Word 2003 / Word for Mac 2008 or earlier: Select Insert Text Box from the top menu. Click and drag in the document. Click the text box and type in the text you'd like to orient vertically. If you already typed it in to the document, copy and paste it into the text box. A rectangular outline will appear around the text. Each corner of the box has a circle. These circles are "handles" you can pick up and drag to change the box size. Click and hold on any corner of the text box, then move the cursor. Drag the corner to make the text box a tall, narrow shape. Once the box becomes too narrow to display two letters side by side, they will shift on top of each other instead. If the box is rotating, or if it's moving without changing shape, you didn't click it right. Try again and make sure to click the corner of the box.

SUMMARY: Follow this method for horizontal letters in a vertical orientation. Insert a text box. Type in your text. Click the text box. Drag the corner of the text box.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You'll want to place the hopper at least one block above the ground, so place a block of dirt on the ground where you want to put the hopper. Simply face the top of the dirt block and press the "Place" key/button. The hopper should appear with the wide section facing up and the narrow section facing toward the ground. This will allow for another item to be placed below the hopper. Doing so allows the hopper to funnel any items that land in it into the chest rather than strewing them all over the ground. You can hold Shift while right-clicking to place the chest here without opening the hopper. To place the chest without opening the hopper on Minecraft PE or console edition, just crouch while placing it. Right-click, tap, or use the left trigger on the hopper in order to open it. From this point, you can add items to the hopper; any items you add will immediately be funneled out of the bottom of the hopper. Placing a hopper and chest assembly at the bottom of a 30-block-deep shaft and then luring monsters to your position will cause them to fall to their deaths, thereby funneling any items they were carrying into the chest below the hopper. Be mindful of the chest's capacity, since if it fills up the trap will no longer collect monster loot for you. Place a furnace on top of the hopper, add fuel to the furnace, and then place a chest below the hopper. After doing so, you can place raw food (e.g., chicken) in the furnace to cook it; once it finishes cooking, it will automatically transfer into the chest. Make sure the hopper's spout is facing the chest. If it isn't, the food will just fly out of the hopper.

SUMMARY: Place a scaffold for the hopper. Place the hopper on the dirt. Remove the dirt block. Place a chest below the hopper. Select the hopper. Create a monster trap. Create an automatic stove.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While you can't actually check the size of the photo in the Photos app, you can add it to an email message to check the approximate size. You won't actually need to send an email to do so. This is in the bottom right corner of the screen. You can also tap a different album on this screen if you'd like to narrow your results. It resembles a box with an arrow coming out of the top in the bottom left corner of your screen. This will open a new mail message with the image attached. You will be prompted to select the size of your photo. If you didn't add a subject to your email, you'll have to confirm that you want to send the email without a subject before continuing. This should be at the bottom of the page--the Actual Size value will tell you the approximate size of your selected photo. If you selected multiple photos, you'll only see their total size (not a photo-by-photo breakdown).

SUMMARY: Open the Photos app. Tap Albums. Tap Camera Roll. Select a photo. Tap the "Share" button. Tap Mail. Tap the "To" field. Type in your own email address. Tap Send. Review the "Actual Size" value.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Wash and condition you hair. Section it off into 1 to 2-inch (2.54 to 5,08-centimeter) square-shaped sections using the handle of a rat-tail comb. Mist each section with water, then apply a moisturizing hair cream to it. Braid each section of hair. A simple mixture of castor oil and coconut or oil will work just fine for this. You can also use your favorite braiding cream instead. Buy some braiding hair that has a water wave texture. Select a thin strand, find the middle, then hold it behind your first braid, about 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) above the root. You should have three strands: a left synthetic strand, your natural braid, then a right synthetic strand. Braid these strands together until you reach the end of your natural braid. Split the synthetic hair into three sections, then braid them together for about 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 centimeters). You can also simply twist the two strands into a rope braid instead. Buy a package of pre-made faux locs. Slide a crochet hook or a latch hook through the base of your braid, close to the root. Catch the top of the faux loc, then pull it back through the braid to form a 1-inch (2.54-centimeter) long loop. Pre-made faux locs are strands of synthetic hair coiled into a tube. Choose faux locs that match the color of your braiding hair. Give the loop a slight twist first, then slide the hook under the braid. Use the hook to catch the rest of the faux loc. Hold the loop with your fingers, then slide the faux loc through the loop. Gently tug on the loc to tighten the knot. Unravel the top of the faux loc a little. Wrap it around the braid, letting it coil back into its natural shape. Do this for 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 centimeters), then stop. Find the bottom of your faux loc. Slid the tip of the crochet or latch hook up through the loc until it comes out the top. Scrunch the loc down the hook as needed to get it all to fit. Do not catch the braided part that includes your natural hair. Instead, catch the part that only contains the synthetic braiding hair. Gently tug down on the hook, pulling the braiding hair and the braid down through the faux look. Slip the hook off of the hair. If there are any loops of braiding hair sticking out the side of your loc, tug downward on the braiding hair. Slide the faux loc up and down the braiding hair as needed to adjust the look. The faux loc won't cover all of the braiding hair, but blend into it. Since your hair is already all braided, all you have to do is add faux locs to it. It would be easier, however, if you start from the bottom of your head, and work your way upwards.

SUMMARY:
Start with freshly washed, braided hair. Pick a braid to start with, then add some braiding hair to it. Braid the two together. Finish off with a regular braid for a few inches/centimeters. Pull a faux loc through the base of your braid. Pull the rest of the faux loc through the loop. Wrap the faux loc around the braid. Push the hook up through the faux loc. Catch the braiding hair with your hook. Slide the braiding hair down through the faux loc. Repeat the process for the rest of your hair.
