Parts of the fireplace can break or wear down, and it's important to note these before the fireplace malfunctions or causes an emergency fire. While the fireplace is cool, open the damper (seal at the top of the fireplace) and inspect the flue (opening connecting the fireplace to the chimney). The flue should be open and clear of obstructions. Examine the hearth to make sure no bricks are damaged or missing, and that the fireboxthe interior of the fireplaceis not cracked or damaged. If you're more comfortable letting professionals inspect your fireplace and chimney, call a local chimney sweep. They will inspect both inside and outside of your house, and inform you if any cleaning or repairs are needed. The chimney cap is at the very peak of the chimney: a small, plate-sized lid that is attached to the top of your chimney pipe to make sure that no small animals or debris fall down the chimney. If it becomes clogged or broken, smoke will not be able to exit the chimney and could back up into your house. Make sure that the cap is in good condition, and is free from cracks, ash buildup, or birds' nests. Since you'll need to climb on top of your roof to do this, make sure to observe safety precautions. Firmly ground your ladder before you begin to ascend. Even if the chimney cap is clear, ash can still build up on the inside of the chimney pipe itself. This presents a risk, as excess buildup can catch on fire and lead to a dangerous and chimney fire. If your chimney has excess internal ash buildup, during summer months, smoky-smelling air can be drawn through the chimney into the house. To clean a chimney, you'll need a specific set of pipes and brushes that you should be able to purchase at your local hardware store. If you prefer not to clean your own chimney, a local cleaning or maintenance service should be able to do the job for you. Also inspect the chimney flashing (the seal between the chimney and roof). This should be tight and not show any signs of damage or wear. Even if your fireplace seems to be in good shape and has been inspected regularly, you need to be aware of fireplace warning signs. You may smell smoke in the room while a fire is burning, notice damaged wallpaper on the wall by the fireplace (or "hot spots," where the wall adjacent to the chimney is intensely hot in certain places), or begin to notice rust around the damper or firebox. If you see any of these signs, call a chimney sweep or local fireplace-inspection service before lighting your next fire. You may experience downdrafts when using your fireplace. A downdraft is caused by air rushing down your chimney and pushing smoke and ash out from the fireplace into your home. Your chimney cap should prevent downdrafts, but if they occur frequently, inspect the chimney cap and make sure there are no branches overhanging the top of the chimney, as these can interfere with proper airflow.

Summary: Inspect your fireplace every two years. Keep the chimney cap clean. Clean your chimney annually. Be aware of signs of potential problems with your fireplace.

This encourages you to play straight. You should aim to "rock the baby" with your elbows as you drive the ball, rather than slogging across the line. While the bowler runs at you, keep both eyes focused on the ball. Zoning in on the ball will allow you to better judge the ball's speed. Focus your eye on a seam of the ball. Your should complete the downswing slowly. A slow, steady downswing allows you to watch the ball longer. It will prevent you from playing the ball too early, thus enabling you to accelerate the bat through the ball as you hit it. Sloggers swing hard and early, meaning they hit the ball too early and too slowly, spooning catches in the air. With your knees bent and the weight on the balls of your feet, point your toes in the direction that you would like to hit the ball. You may choose to point your toe at the bowler as the batsmen of the "Golden Age" did. When your bat connects to the ball, transfer your body weight into the ball. As the ball hits the bat, and not before, uncoil your wrists. This will add additional punch to the ball. This does not mean hitting everything to leg, you can throw your wrists to the off side as if you're playing a hockey shot. When cutting or hooking the ball, make sure your arms are fully extended. A cramped shot leads to a catch. You will hit the majority of balls along the ground. Of course, if you are trying to drive straight for a six, or score a run, you will hit the ball in the air and hope it goes over the boundary.

Summary: Point your elbow at the bowler as he runs into bowl. Watch the ball. Begin the downswing of the bat. Point your toes and lean into the ball as you hit it. Uncoil your wrists. Extend your arms. Hit the ball.

In order to set up a campsite, you will need to find a flat, open area that is not inside a town, settlement, or hideout. If you try to set a campsite up in an area that doesn't allow it, you will receive a message telling you to find a new spot. You can make a basic campsite without having to purchase anything. You can access the Satchel by pressing SELECT (PS3) or BACK (Xbox 360). These are your tools. Your Basic Campsite will be on the list. You can purchase an Improved Campsite, but you can save with either version. Select the Campsite from your kit to set it up. You can also come across camps that other characters have set up. These appear randomly throughout the game. You cannot save at these camps. When you build your campsite, you will automatically squat down next to it. You can start the save process by pressing (PS3) or Y (Xbox 360). Marston will lie down on the bedroll. When you lie down, time will advance six hours. You can choose to save, or you can cancel to get up. This can be useful for advancing the game time without going through the whole save process. if you choose to save, you will be asked to select a save file. You can overwrite an existing save, or create a new one.
Summary: Find an open area. Open your Satchel. Select "Kits". Save your game. Choose to save. Choose a save file.
