INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fried pork chops are a rich, delicious treat. Their golden-brown crust, a result of their being coated with a flavorful breading before frying, is as eye-catching as it is flavorful. To begin cooking this scrumptious dish, bread your pork chops (note - thin cut pork chops are preferable for their quick cooking time.) Completely coat each pork chop with flour, dust it off so that its coating is thin and even, then dip it in beaten eggs. Allow the egg to briefly drain off of your chop. Finally, toss your pork in a store-bought or prepared breading of your choice. There are a variety of options when choosing your breading. Many supermarkets sell pre-packaged bread crumbs (Panko, etc.). You can use these by themselves or, for a custom flavor, season with your favorite spices, salt, and/or pepper. You can even make your own breading out of normal breadcrumbs. The breading doesn't have to be the only source of flavor - dry seasonings like cayenne pepper and paprika can be also be added to the flour. For frying, it's best to add meat directly to a hot pan, not to add meat to a cold pan, then heat. Add one half cup of an oil with a high smoke point (like olive or grapeseed oil) to a frying pan or skillet. Swirl the pan to evenly coat the inside of the pan with oil. Turn the stove's burner to "high" and allow the oil to heat for a minute or two. Carefully add a tablespoon or two of butter to the hot oil - it will help give the pork chops a crispy brown crust. The oil is hot enough when meat audibly sizzles when it touches it. Be careful - a hot oily pan can erupt with sizzling and crackling when meat is added. The sizzle sounds tremendously satisfying, but it's often accompanied by small splashes of hot oil. Use a pair of tongs to safely adjust your pork chops. The exact cooking time will differ based on the size and thickness of your pork chops. Thin-cut chops will only need a few minutes per side, while thick slices can require 5 minutes or more. Allow each side to develop a rich, deep golden brown color. Well-fried chops should be crispy on the outside while tender on the inside. Normal rules for judging pork's doneness apply: use a fork and knife to check for meat that's white all the way through with clear to brown juices. As with other methods of cooking, pork will continue to cook after it's removed from the skillet. Move done pork chops to a plate lined with a paper towel (which will absorb excess oil, helping to prevent the pork chops from getting soggy.) Allow the pork to rest for several minutes, then serve and enjoy! A cool, lightly-dressed salad compliments the hot crispiness of the pork chops perfectly. Don't pour fry oil down the drain - this can clog your sink. Instead, let your oil cool, then transfer it to a jar or plastic container. Keep your oil in the fridge, where it will solidify. Use your oil for future recipes or for a variety of other purposes that require grease. If you're interested in alternative fuels, you can even make biodiesel from leftover oil with a few household tools and ingredients!

SUMMARY: Bread your pork chops. Heat oil in a pan. Add your breaded pork chops to the pan. Cook the chops over medium-high heat until they're golden-brown. Remove the pork from the heat. Carefully dispose of excess oil.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This will stack a second, identical layer over your original image. This will blur the entire image; you'll work backwards from here. Play around with different blur radii to create the background effect you want. The larger the radius, the blurrier the image, so if you're going for a subtle effect, aim low. For example, if you want the background to be very soft and only somewhat identifiable, try a radius of 10. If you want your background just barely blurred, use a radius of .5 or 1. Make sure you're working on the top layer when you add the blur. Since the original layer is still intact beneath the blurred one, using the eraser tool on your top layer will expose the clear image underneath. Select the Eraser tool from the toolbar to the left. Adjust the eraser size as you go. For larger swaths, use a large eraser; for details and edges, use a smaller, more precise eraser. Adjust the eraser opacity as you go. For large, interior areas, use a high opacity to erase as thoroughly as possible; for edges, lower the opacity to create a softer, subtle effect. Running a low-opacity eraser over the same place multiple times will have a cumulative effect, so err on the side of low opacity where necessary. This will combine your various layers into one.

SUMMARY: Select Layers > Duplicate Layer. Select Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. Erase your subject(s) back into focus. When you're completely satisfied, go to Layer > Flatten Image.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Most art teachers love projects that reuse household items. Talk to your art teacher, and figure out what they need. Then on WED, work with the school to set up an area where items can be collected. Students, teachers, and staff can bring in items to be reused. Creating a little more green space in the world is a great way to celebrate WED. Ask a local nursery to donate trees, and then plant them around the school as part of your WED celebration. Alternatively, stake out an area to start a community garden. You can grow food that students and teachers can take home or that can be used in the cafeteria. If you're school doesn't already have a recycling program, WED is a great day to set one up. Designate an area for recycling, and offer a program on how to recycle and why recycling is important. Your community likely already has a number of ways that they are working to help the environment. Research ones that your students can help with. Talk to them about these programs. You can even help them get connected by taking a field trip to one.

SUMMARY: Set up a reuse program with the arts and crafts classes. Plant trees or a garden. Begin a recycling program. Connect students to local initiatives.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: From some early studies, a safe dose of Garcinia appears to be up to 2800 mg per day. But, it's not known what may happen if you take these amounts, so you should stay well below that dose. Once you have found a good place to buy the supplement, you need to understand how much of the HCA you need to take. The dose of HCA should be about 1500 mg per day, though this varies from supplement to supplement. Make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions and you consult a knowledgeable healthcare professional before starting. Garcinia comes in two different forms. The first is a pill form, either in a tablet or capsule. If you buy the supplement as a pill, take the recommended dosage of garcinia as a tablet or capsule with water. Take the pill about 30-60 minutes before each meal. In general, garcinia is taken three times a day. This means that each pill should be 500 mg. That way, you stay within your daily dosage suggestions. The second form that you can take of garcinia is liquid. The liquid form of garcinia usually recommends taking 1-2 drops before every meal, but the amount can vary based on the dropper or concentration. Take the drop or drops under your tongue and let them stay for a minute or so. Then, have your regular meal 30-60 minutes later. Before you take the liquid form, ask your pharmacist or a knowledgeable healthcare professional how much garcinia is in every drop for the particular kind you have. You should also ask how many drops would equal a total of about 1500 mg of garcinia every day. Once you have the total number of drops, divide that by three and take that amount before each meal.

SUMMARY:
Learn the correct dose. Take garcinia as a pill. Consider liquid garcinia.
