Problem: Article: When the snow melts someone else will find your "present", as well as there is a possibility that the run-off, mixed with feces, will contaminate a water source. Alternatively, pack it out in a sanitary fashion(for example, double-bagged with kitty litter, or in a poop-tube). If you are camping on a glacier, find a small, deep crevasse.
Summary: Do not defecate in the snow. Walk until you find dirt.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Using a tape measure or tailor's tape, measure the approximate length and width of your guitar. Use these dimensions to buy your fabric. Choose exterior fabric in a color or pattern you like. Interior fabric is optional for lining the case and could be in a complementary or contrasting shade to your exterior fabric. Duck cloth is a plain, heavy cotton fabric used for padding; its color won't show. Lay the guitar on a piece of paper and trace around it's edge with a pencil. Then make a second, darker line that is inch larger on all sides to make sure the case is not too tight on your guitar. Cut the shape out along the darker line. Measure all the way around the outside edge of the pattern once you cut it out. About half this number is a good length for a zipper and about double this number is a good length for piping, if you choose to use it. Using the pattern you created on paper, cut out 2 pieces of your exterior fabric, 2 pieces of the duck cloth, and 2 pieces of fleece/batting. Then cut the 2 pieces of fleece/batting to be inch smaller all around to reduce bulk when sewing. Place 1 piece of your fleece/batting on top of 1 piece of duck cloth, and then place 1 piece of your exterior fabric on top of that. Do the same with the second set of pieces. One set will be the front panel of your case and the other set will be the back panel. Then, use a sewing machine to quilt the pieces together, using straight lines across the length of the fabric. Do this on both panels. If you want to add piping to the edging of your case for a finished look, you can do so by pinning it around the edge of your front and back panels and then sewing it on with a basting stitch on your machine (straight stitch at the longest length).

SUMMARY: Measure your guitar. Trace your guitar on paper. Cut fabric to size for front and back panels. Sew the pieces together. Attach piping (optional).

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: To create a good scary story, you need to have characters who are relatable to your readers. The readers must empathize with your character(s) based on the character's desire or internal struggle. The more your readers empathize with your characters, the closer their connection to the story will be. You'll need at least one main character and, depending on your story, the following additional characters: Villain Other supporting characters (family member, best friend, love interest, etc.) Minor characters (postal worker, gas station attendant, etc.) When you are beginning to develop your characters, you need to work out who they are, what they do, as well as their motivations. Make your character distinct with a certain character trait or tick. This will also help you be consistent with the details. Make lists for every major character that include the following information, and refer to this list while you're writing: Name, age, physical description (include height, weight, eye color, hair color, etc.) Personality traits Likes and dislikes Family history Best friend and worst enemy Five things the character would never leave home without The "stakes" of a character in a story is what your character has to lose if they make a certain decision or choice in the story. If your reader doesn't know what is at stake for the character in the conflict, they cannot fear loss. A good horror story is all about creating extreme emotions like fear or anxiety in the reader. Be clear about what will happen if the character does not get what they want. The stakes of the story, or the consequences if the character does not achieve their desires, is what drives the story forward. The stakes also build tension and suspense for your reader. Go for the strange when developing your villain's appearance, personality, and gestures. Instead of making a person or creature "normal," make this character a little off. For example, think about Dracula. He doesn't have a mouthful of "normal" teeth; instead, the reader is told that he has two sharp, pointy teeth. Try giving your villain a distinguishing gesture that they use often, such as clenching their fists or twitching their nose. Give your villain a deep booming voice, a soft raspy voice, a creaky nasally voice, or a very mad voice. Most horror is about fear and tragedy, and whether or not your character is capable of overcoming their fears. A story where good things happen to good people is heartwarming, but it will likely not scare or terrify your reader. In fact, the tragedy of bad things happening to good people is not only more relatable, but it will also be full of tension and suspense. Give your character challenges and make some bad things happen for him or her. The tension between what the reader wants for the character and what could happen or go wrong for the character will fuel the story. It will also propel your readers through the story. It is not necessary for your characters to make mistakes, since horror often comes from suffering that happens without any reason or warning. However, you can incorporate some mistakes and bad decisions as a signal to readers that something bad is on the horizon. Have your character respond with the wrong move, while convincing themselves they are making the right move against the threat. However, don't go overboard with these mistakes or bad decisions. They should be believable and not merely stupid or inane. For example, don't have your character, a young babysitter, respond to a masked killer by running outside into the deep, dark woods.
Summary: Develop your central characters. Make up specific details for each character. Make the stakes for the character clear and extreme. Make your villain not quite right. Make life difficult for your characters. Allow your characters to make mistakes or bad decisions.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: There are a variety of ways to do this. Try keeping a log or journal for several days. Or make a chart or graph illustrating how your time is spent. Be sure to keep track of everything that's taking up your time: sleep, work, eating, chores, school, etc. Be honest with yourself here. This will show you how best to manage your time, especially if you find yourself upset at spending so much time in one area of your life. Now that you know where your time is going, how would you like it to be spent? Mainly, what do you want to change about your current routine? If you noticed any wasted time, start by making a goal to address it. For example, if you found yourself spending several hours responding to pointless emails, taking extra breaks, or waiting for things, make it a goal to rescue that wasted time. This doesn't have to be incredibly detailed. Just rank your goals in the order in which you'd like to complete them. Try to put at least 30 percent of your weekly time towards accomplishing a goal. Re-evaluate your goals periodically. You may find after accomplishing some tasks that your priorities have shifted. Don't be afraid to alter your goals or plans. Give yourself a manageable range of time and make a list of the goals you must accomplish. Keep a separate list of things you'd like to get done. Then, look at your week and assign tasks for each day that get you closer to achieving your goals. Remember to include time for family, relaxation, or personal time. While you don't need to detail what you'll be doing, you should be sure to block out the time. Don't allow your schedule to fill up with things that don't get you closer to your goals or that don't make you happy. If something seems like a waste of your time, try to cut it short or get out of it. Likewise, don't feel like you have to accomplish everything yourself or it won't be done correctly. You'll most likely need to learn how to trust and let go in order to accomplish your tasks.
Summary:
Determine how you spend your time. Write down goals. Prioritize your goals. Plan your time. Realize that your time is valuable.
