In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: While stropping will help remove excess moisture, you don't want to soak your strop in water and shaving cream. Pass the razor under warm tap water until all shaving cream has been rinsed away. Shake excess water off of the razor. You want to avoid using the strop's leather side after a shave. This can cause metal chips to break off of the blade and embed themselves in the strop. This will make the strop rougher and can damage your blade. The edge should be facing towards you, the spine away from you. Hold the razor at an angle, no more than 15 degrees, so the edge rests against the strop. Glide the razor lightly; too much pressure and you'll cut into the strop. Cuts and nicks in the strop will prevent your razor from gliding well. Roll the razor in your fingers, flipping the blade upwards and away from you. The edge should end up facing away from you, while the spine will now be pointed toward you. Hold the razor at a slight angle. Using a similar motion as before, slide the razor back towards you, keeping the edge angled against the strop. This will get any moisture or small hairs off of the edge and onto the cloth. Repeat this back and forth motion about 10 more times.
Summary: Give the razor a quick rinse. Flip the strop to the cloth side and hold it tautly. Place the razor at the bottom of the strop. Push the razor away from you, toward the top of the strop. Flip the razor at the top of the strop. Bring the razor back down the strop.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Arrange the cod fillets in a single layer in a microwave-safe 11- by 7-inch (28- by 18-cm) baking dish. Cover the dish with a lid, paper towel, or microwave-safe plastic wrap. Keep the cod in a single layer in the baking dish. Do not stack the fillets since doing so will cause them to cook unevenly. If this dish is too large for your microwave oven, you may need to cook the cod in batches in a smaller dish. With the dish still covered, cook the cod for 6 minutes on full power. If your microwave does not have a rotating tray, pause the cooking process at the 3-minute mark and turn the dish 180 degrees before you continue cooking. Remove the baking dish from the microwave and uncover. Pour the broth and lemon juice into the dish and use a fork or spatula to flip the fillets over, coating both sides. Sprinkle the top of each fillet with the pepper and parsley. If desired, you could use other seasonings, like 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) garlic powder, along with the pepper and parsley. Cover the dish once more and cook the fish for another 4 to 5 minutes, until it becomes opaque and can be easily flaked with a fork. If the microwave does not have a rotating tray, pause the cooking process halfway through and turn the dish 180 degrees before finishing the cooking process. Wait 5 minutes before transferring the cooked cod fillets onto individual serving platters.
Summary: Place the cod in a microwave-safe dish. Cook on high for 6 minutes. Add the broth, lemon juice, and seasonings. Cook on high for 4 to 5 minutes. Let stand before serving.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you're seasoned in making sewing patterns, you can make your own. Use your measurements to make your pattern, adding 1.5" for seam allowance. If you've never made your own pattern, a wedding dress is a very difficult pattern to begin with. Once you have your fabric and style picked out, you can go to fabric stores and look through pattern books or you can order online. Each will be rated by level of difficulty. Make sure that a key/glossary, layout, and step-by-step instructions are included. When you order your pattern, it is easy to combine multiple sizes to get the pattern as close to your measurements as possible. Patterns can be printed on a variety of materials. For example, it can be printed on large pieces of tissue paper, or stiffer white paper. The stiffer paper is better if you'll be using it a lot. If you decide on tissue paper, make an extra pattern, just in case something happens to the original.
Summary:
Make your own sewing pattern. Buy a sewing pattern. Use the right material.
