Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Set up the breeding cage at least 2-6 weeks before spring. Put your cage in a peaceful location away from predators. Make sure each quail has at least 1 sq ft (0.093 sq m) of floor space.

Answer: Quail typically start breeding during the spring and continue to lay eggs through autumn. Since it will take the quail 2-6 weeks to get comfortable in their new environment, set up the habitat a few weeks before you plan to start breeding your birds. For example, early February is a great time to set up your quail habitat and place the birds inside. By early spring, they should be comfortable in the cage. Your quail won't lay as many eggs if they feel stressed, so keep them somewhere they'll be undisturbed. You might build them a coop or place them near a wall so they feel safe. Keep pets and other animals away from the cage. If the quail are in your home, don't place them near loud sounds, like the TV or a radio. Additionally, keep them out of high traffic areas. Your quail should be able to move about the cage freely and comfortably. Since you may be hatching eggs, a bigger cage is optimal for breeding quail. If you notice the birds seem cramped or fight a lot, move them to a bigger cage.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Craft a Diamond Pickaxe. Fill some buckets with water. Find lava. Pour a water bucket on the side of the wall, over the lava blocks. Collect the source water block using an empty bucket. Using your Diamond pickaxe, mine the Obsidian. Build the frame for your Nether Portal. Light the portal with Flint and Steel. Stand in the portal for a few seconds.

Answer: In order to mine obsidian, you'll need a Diamond Pickaxe. You'll need three diamonds and two sticks to craft the Diamond Pickaxe. If you want to build a Nether Portal without a Diamond Pickaxe, you can build a "mold" using other materials and create obsidian in the correct shape for the portal. Click here for instructions. See Find and Mine Diamonds Fast on Minecraft for tips on finding diamonds. Obsidian is created by pouring water onto lava. One bucket of water will create one block of obsidian. You'll need at least ten blocks of obsidian, and you'll want to have extra water on hand in case something goes wrong, so pack accordingly. You'll need to find some lava to turn into obsidian. Lava typically occurs deep underground, though you can stumble across a lava lake anywhere in the world. You'll have a very good chance of finding lava on level 1-10 above the bedrock, as all air pockets are replaced with lava at this elevation. The principle here is to spread the water over the lava blocks. Any water the lava comes into contact with will become Obsidian. The tip here is maximum coverage. By doing so, the Obsidian underneath will be revealed. You need 10 to make a portal. Rinse and repeat the water bucket trick as necessary. Note that mining obsidian takes a very long time (9.4 seconds). You can speed this up with the "Efficiency" enchantment. If you're standing in the water, be careful that the flow doesn't push you into the exposed lava. You'll likely want to build the frame near your home so that you can easily resupply when you return from the Nether. The frame needs to be at least 4x5 blocks, but you don't need the corners, meaning you'll need ten blocks at minimum. Place two obsidian blocks next to each other on the ground, and then place a placeholder block on each end. Place three obsidian blocks in columns on each of the placeholder blocks. Put a placeholder block on the top of each column. Place two more obsidian blocks between the top placeholders. You can now remove the placeholder blocks to create the corner-less frame. The inside area should be 2x3 blocks of empty space. You can light the portal with anything that creates fire, but Flint and Steel is the most reliable. The middle of the portal will glow purple when activated. Depending on how strong your device's processor is, you'll be transported to the Nether in 4 seconds average. You can abort the teleport by stepping out of the portal, though it may be too late when your player's vision starts getting distorted. A return portal will be created in the Nether where you enter. Make sure to bring your Flint and Steel with you into the Nether. A Ghast can put out your return portal, requiring you to re-light it. That being said, you might have to consider bringing extra obsidian, probably another ten blocks, in case a ghast breaks or destroys the portal (although that is not common considering the strength of obsidian).

Answer: You can use a frying pan or a large griddle to cook pancakes. Grease the pan with a pastry brush dipped in melted butter. Alternatively, use cooking spray to grease the pan. If you're using a non-stick pan, use a small amount of butter to grease the pan instead of cooking spray. Use a quarter-cup measure to scoop batter onto the pan. This will make medium-sized pancakes. The larger your pan, the more pancakes you'll be able to cook at once. Don't crowd the pancakes. If you place them too closely together, they will melt into one giant pancake. If you haven't already folded the blueberries into the pancake batter, add the blueberries while the pancake is cooking. Distribute the blueberries evenly throughout the pancake and press them gently into the batter. Look for cooked, dry edges and small popped bubbles in the surface of the pancake batter. You can also gently lift the edge of the pancake with a spatula to see if the bottom is golden-brown. These are signs that your pancake is ready to flip. Slide a spatula underneath the pancake and carefully flip it over to cook the other side. The cooked side of the pancake should be a light golden color. If it's too dark, reduce the heat on the pan or cook the pancakes for less time. If the pan is giving off smoke but the pancake is still doughy and hard to flip, you need to reduce the heat. Line a large plate with paper towels. Once the other side of the pancake has cooked for a few minutes, use a spatula to transfer it to the plate. Make sure the blueberry side of the pancake is facing upwards and the non-blueberry side is against the paper towel.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Review your lender's rate lock form. Know what the fee will be, if any. Request the rate lock. Get the rate lock agreement in writing. Know when your rate may change even after a rate lock request.

Answer:
Once you have decided on the best lender and/or interest rate, request to see a blank copy of the lender's rate lock form, if possible. This will give you an exact sense of what to expect before submitting your own application. If you have time, you can have the blank form looked at by your realtor and/or real estate lawyer for approval. If your lender charges a fee for locking in a rate, make sure that you understand the fee amount and how it is related to the conditions of the rate lock (such as its length). Rate lock fees can be several hundred dollars. In many cases, a rate lock fee might be refunded, unless your mortgage application is canceled. When you are ready to lock in your rate, contact your lender. Depending upon the institution, you may have several ways to make the request (phone, fax, in-person visit, etc.). However you initially contact the institution, it is important to get the request in writing. Send a document that specifies the rate you would like to lock your mortgage in at, and any applicable points or other terms. Make sure that your request is signed and dated by you and any co-borrowers. Most lenders will connect you with a mortgage consultant or office to contact when you are ready to request your rate. Your realtor or real estate attorney can help you in preparing this request. When sending your request, make sure that you have completed any application and made any deposit your lender requires to get a mortgage. Your lender should send you a letter confirming your request for a rate lock within a specified period (usually a brief one, such as 5 days). If your request is approved, you should get a written confirmation from your lender. Make sure that the confirmation displays: The agreed-upon rate Whether or not the rate is guaranteed The property address The loan amount and program (i.e., the mortgage period) The lock in fee The lock in date The lock in expiration date Any special terms or conditions The lender's and borrower's signatures Making a rate lock request and even being approved for one are not absolute guarantees that an interest rate will not change. In certain situations, you can re-negotiate the rate lock terms; in others, you will either have to accept the new rate or seek a new mortgage. For example: If rates change in between making a lock in request and its approval, the original request will be void. You will then have to re-negotiate the request, if desired. If you change the kind of loan you are requesting, or the terms of the loan (for example, the amount of your down payment), your rate can change. Your rates can also change if your credit score rises or falls during or after the process of making the rate lock request. If your income cannot be verified, lenders may not be able to honor a rate guarantee. A change in the appraised value of the home you are seeking to buy can also result in a change to your rate.
