Problem: Article: Surgery should only be considered as a last resort if you are suffering from several conditions due to your horseshoe kidney. The risk of the surgery done to separate the two kidneys is actually very high, so it is only done in very severe cases. For the most part, surgery is done to fix conditions caused by horseshoe kidney, and is done less often to actually separate the kidneys. The surgery to separate a horseshoe kidney involves three separate surgeries in which a surgeon will work to separate, repair damage, and reconstruct your kidneys. If you suffer from frequent kidney stones and choose to have your kidneys surgically separated, the surgeon will remove your kidney stones at the same time. Again, having surgery done to separate kidneys is risky, so you should consider getting the kidney stones removed via medication and safer surgical practices (see Method 2 for more information). If a kidney tumor, particularly a cancerous tumor, is found it will have to be removed surgically to make sure that it does not cause your kidney further complications. Talk to your doctor about the different procedures available and what would work best for you based on your medical history. During a kidney tumor removal, the tumor will be dissected and the surrounding tissue will be removed. Ureteropelvic Junction "UPJ" Obstruction can occur in people who have horseshoe kidney. Because your kidneys are joined, your ureter (the duct that carries urine from your kidney to your bladder) can be in a position where it becomes bent or kinked. Surgery will be done to correct this so that your urine can flow in a normal way through your body. It is important to get surgery if you have UPJ obstruction because it can cause your kidney to dilate (open up) and can lead to cause abdominal pains, nausea, side back pain, weakness and severe colic. You may also see blood in your urine. It can also lead to a series of kidney infections.
Summary: Consider surgery as your last option. Get kidney stones removed during the kidney separation procedure. Have kidney tumors removed surgically. Repair a bent ureter with surgery.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Poke holes in each side of the roll where arms should sit. Insert the arms into the holes. The length that you cut the arms will depend on the size of the body you've created for your minion doll. Either cover the head with yellow paper (such as tissue paper or cellophane) or paint the head yellow. Alternatively, cut a ping pong ball in half, glue onto the head end of the doll and paint it yellow (if it's already yellow, don't paint it). Use a non-absorbent acrylic yellow paint. Use pen refills or toothpicks to create the minion doll's legs. Cut to size and glue the chosen leg materials to the bottom of your minion. This will help to make them thick. Make the feet base flat so that the minion doll won't fall when it is made to stand. Glue each item to the minion doll.
Summary: Cut two toothpicks into minion arm lengths. Make the minion doll's head. Once everything is dry, paint the body. Add legs. Cover the legs with M-seal. Make hands and a headband from M-seal.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The key component of your bucket drum set is going to be the bucket. A 15 liter (4USgal) bucket is usually a good size for someone of an average height. You can find large plastic buckets at hardware stores or by asking friends or family if they have an empty plastic bucket you can use. You will also need a stool or another bucket of equal or lesser height that you can sit on when you drum. The second key component of your bucket drum set is a pair of wooden drumsticks. Look for drumsticks at your local music supply store or online. You can also use metal drumsticks, but they are often heavier and more difficult to use for beginner drummers. If you plan to move around with your bucket drum set, you can make it portable by making a strap for the bucket drum out of duct tape and rope. Begin by wrapping duct tape around the bucket, a few inches from the bottom of the bucket. Wrap the duct tape around once and then once more again. At the end of the second layer of tape, pinch one inch of the tape to make a loop. Continue wrapping the tape once you make the first loop for five to ten inches and then pinch the tape again to create a second loop. A wider gap between the loops works best if you want to tie the bucket around your waist. A narrower gap between the loops works best if you plan to carry the bucket via a shoulder strap. Wrap the tape around the bucket one more time, layering over the loops so they are double layered. This will make them strong enough to withstand the pull of the rope. Turn the bucket upside down, with the opening on the ground. Then, put duct tape on the bucket vertically over the wrapped section to secure it further. Do this three to four times. Thread the rope through the loops and tie the bucket to your waist or make a shoulder strap with the rope and carry the bucket that way.
Summary:
Look for a large plastic bucket. Get wooden drumsticks. Consider making a strap to carry your bucket drum.
