Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Start by making a thick soda-syrup base. Bring the mixture to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Reduce the syrup by half. Store in squeeze bottle and refrigerate. Serve by mixing with ice and seltzer water.

Answer: The easiest and fastest way to make your own soda is to create a thick flavoring and add a small amount to already-carbonated soda water. If you want to start from scratch, skip to the next method and brew your own. Making syrup saves you the trouble of messing with yeast, and works in much the same way an old-fashioned soda jerk used to work, or a modern soda machine. In a saucepan, mix the following ingredients: 1 cup granulated sugar about 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup fresh fruit juice, or two tablespoons of flavor extract Whisk vigorously to keep the sugar moving, staying careful to avoid burning it. It should melt thoroughly and form a thick syrup. Bring the syrup to a boil. Turn down the heat and let simmer until half of mixture is left. It'll look pretty thick and sweet, which is good. It should be very sweet and concentrated, perfect for cutting in cold soda water. Let the syrup cool and store it in an easy-access container in the refrigerator. It should be good for a few weeks, or more. If you've got a sports water bottle, that would be perfect for storing. You can portion out a squirt or two of the syrup per glass of soda you want to make, and keep it nicely slotted in the fridge door. Fill a glass with soda water and add a small squirt of the soda syrup to it, mixing it thoroughly with a spoon until it becomes integrated. Give it a taste and add more if necessary, or dilute it further with more soda water. Serve chilled and enjoy. If you've got access to a carbonator, you can even bubble up your own soda water to streamline the process and make everything yourself. While a carbonator can cost a pretty penny, you'll be able to start making your own soda water for free. If you drink lots of it, it'll pay for itself in no time.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make an herbal tea. Purchase quality supplements. Try valerian as a tea or supplement. Use passionflower as a tea or supplement. Take chamomile as a supplement or tea. Use lemon balm as a tea or supplement. Take a melatonin supplement. Take 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) supplement.

Answer: To use an herb as a tea, boil water. Add either 1 teaspoon of loose, dried herb, 1 tablespoon of fresh herb or a tea bag to a cup of boiled water and let it steep for five to ten minutes. Strain if the tea if you used loose herbs and flavor it with honey or lemon if you like. Ask your pharmacist to recommend a reputable brand of supplements; the supplement industry is not regulated, meaning there is no guarantee you are getting the advertised product. Your pharmacist may know which companies are trustworthy. You should also look for verifiable contact information for the company and look for any seals of approval from the Natural Products Association (NPA), Consumer Labs or the US Pharmacopeia (USP). The manufacturer should follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when taking supplements. You should also inform your doctor of any supplements you're taking. Buy only fresh supplements (check the expiration date). Valerian is a root that has the properties of a mild sedative, helping you fall asleep faster and more easily. Valerian has been used as a sleep aid for thousands of years, although it should not be given to children under 3 years old. You may want to add honey, cinnamon, cloves, or lemon to valerian tea to improve the flavor. Valerian root may interact with prescription medications like antidepressants and antianxiety medications. Passionflower is used to reduce anxiety and can also lower blood pressure. If you take blood pressure medications, talk to your doctor before supplementing. Passionflower has a light, pleasant taste, but you can flavor it with honey and lemon if you're making a tea. Do not use passionflower if you're pregnant. It may induce uterine contractions. Since passionflower hasn't been studied in children, talk with a qualified healthcare professional to determine a safe dose to give your child. Chamomile has traditionally been used to help induce sleep, although clinical studies are needed to support this. Chamomile is used to increase calm while reducing anxiety. When purchasing chamomile, look for German (which is more widely available) or Roman. Chamomile is safe for children, but dilute the tea with warm water (use cup of tea and add cup of water). Chamomile can interact with a number of prescription medications, so talk to a knowledgeable healthcare professional (your doctor or pharmacist) before using it. Lemon balm can also reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality, but should not be used by anyone with an overactive thyroid or anyone who is pregnant. Lemon balm has Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) status in the US and can be used with children older than 3 years old, but dilute the tea with warm water (use cup of tea and add cup of water). Lemon balm may interact with certain medications for thyroidism, HIV, and sleep issues like anxiety or insomnia. Talk with your doctor before supplementing. Take 1 to 3 mg of melatonin one hour before bed. This "sleep hormone" can regulate your sleep cycles. Avoid taking melatonin every night, unless your doctor advises it. You can also try to increase the amount of melatonin in your system by drinking a glass of tart cherry juice. Melatonin may interact with prescription medications and should not be taken when pregnant or when nursing. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before use. This chemical is used by your body to make a neurotransmitter, serotonin. Serotonin is known to regulate mood and behavior, which may improve your sleep. Take 50 to 100 mg of 5-HTP every night before bed for six to 12 weeks, unless your doctor recommends otherwise. 5-HTP is not recommended for pregnant or nursing women.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Open the Ubuntu kernel list. Select a kernel version. Find the kernel for your computer. Download the kernel files. Open Terminal. Switch to your default "Downloads" directory. Prompt Ubuntu to open the .deb files. Enter your password when asked. Wait for Ubuntu to finish installing the kernel. Reboot your computer. Check your current kernel.

Answer:
Go to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ in your computer's web browser. Scroll down until you find the link to the kernel version number you want to install, then click it to open its page. As of August 2018, the newest kernel is version 4.18. You can find it at the very bottom of the page under the v4.18 link. Usually the top list of kernel (.deb) files will work for your computer, but if you see a heading that contains files which seem better suited to your computer than the top heading, you may want to use its files instead. Each heading on the page should say "Build for [architecture] succeeded" where "architecture" refers to your computer's system architecture (32-bit or 64-bit). Click each kernel file's link to do so . You'll need the "headers" file marked for all versions, the "image" file with "generic" in its name (avoid the "low latency" versions of these files), and the "modules" file with "generic" in its name. For example, to download the necessary files for kernel 4.18, you would click the following links: linux-headers-4.18.0-041800_4.18.0-041800.201808122131_all.deb linux-image-unsigned-4.18.0-041800-generic_4.18.0-041800.201808122131_amd64.deb linux-modules-4.18.0-041800-generic_4.18.0-041800.201808122131_amd64.deb Click the black Terminal icon on the left side of the screen. This will open the Terminal window. You can also press Ctrl+Alt+T to open Terminal. Type in cd Downloads and press Enter. If your default "Downloads" location for your web browser differs from the "Downloads" folder, replace "Downloads" with the path to the folder into which your kernel files downloaded. If you have any .deb files not related to the kernel installation in this directory, either move them or delete them before proceeding. Type in sudo dpkg -i *.deb and press Enter. Type in the password you use to log into your computer, then press Enter. You won't see any characters or stars appear while typing. This may take a few minutes. Once you see the "Downloads" directory tag reappear next to your name at the bottom of the window, you can proceed. Click the "Menu" {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/8\/82\/Android7dropdown.png","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/8\/82\/Android7dropdown.png\/30px-Android7dropdown.png","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":460,"bigWidth":"30","bigHeight":"30","licensing":"<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>I edited this screenshot of an Android icon.

<\/p><\/div>"} icon and click Restart in the resulting pop-up window. You can double-check that Ubuntu's installation of your kernel was successful by opening Terminal and entering uname -sr. If this command shows you a number that matches the version number of the kernel you downloaded, your kernel has successfully updated. If you don't see the correct kernel number here, you may have downloaded the wrong files for your computer. Delete the .deb files from your "Downloads" folder, then go back to the list of kernel files and try downloading them from under a different heading.
