This will make it easier to work with the cinnamon. Use a knife to carefully cut around the diameter of the branch. When scoring, try to cut the cinnamon into 3in (7.6cm) sections along the branch. Be careful not to cut all the way through the branchyou want to only score the cinnamon so that it becomes loose. Start at one end of the scored line and scrape upwards to remove the reddish-brown cinnamon. Go slowly using a paint scraper and try to remove the cinnamon in solid sheets. If the cinnamon crumbles as you peel it off, this is okay too. When you scrape the cinnamon off, it may have part of the inner core attached to it still. Carefully use a knife or paint scraper to scratch off the inner core. The tree's inner core isn't edible, which is why it must be removed. The inner core will be lighter in color than the cinnamon and very easy to distinguish.

Summary: Score the cinnamon layer into 3in (7.6cm) sections. Use a paint scraper or similar tool to scrape off the cinnamon in sheets. Clean off the cinnamon to remove the tree's inner core.

One option is Asterisk, a free, open source software. Another is Switchvox. A PBX converts your computer into a telecommunications device and will allow you to manipulate incoming call data to identify blocked callers. Before embarking on this method ensure that you thoroughly understand the technical challenge it presents and the potential financial burden it incurs. A SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) trunk provider is a way to get a phone line via the internet instead of through traditional phone lines. In order to access all the information you'll need you must subscribe to an enterprise-level SIP provider, for instance Flowroute or Cisco's CallManager Your SIP Trunk provider will offer phone numbers for you to control and monitor. Call data monitoring requires one such phone number. All the call data coming in to this number will include the "masked" identity information from blocked numbers. Once set up properly you will be able to forward your normal phone number to the SIP trunk provider phone number (to get the identity information you want) then forward it back to your normal phone line. Any VoIP (Voice over IP) phone number can work with a PBX like Asterisk to "unmask" the blocked number but enterprise level SIP trunk solutions offer the most flexible ability to access and manipulate your incoming data. Work within your SIP trunk provider account to generate lines of configuration code and implement through your PBX software. The configuration from your SIP trunk provider needs to be altered in order to display blocked caller identities. This is achieved by removing a few lines of privacy "masking". If you're still confused, check the references for more specific information. Adjust the configuration code by inserting your normal phone number. Calls will now forward to the DID number, get "unmasked" by the software hack, and then forward back to your normal line, automatically identifying blocked callers as they come in.

Summary: Get an Private Branch Exchange (PBX) account. Find a SIP trunk provider. Subscribe to at least one DID (Direct Inward Dialing) number. Access the SIP trunk provider's configuration creator. Modify the configuration code. Set up Call Forwarding.

Drainage holes are necessary to let any excess water out of the pot. If you water the bulbs and the excess water doesn't have anywhere to go, your plants could drown. If you're planning on leaving your pot outside during the winter, you'll need to add enough soil to keep the bulbs warm. Look for a pot that's at least 24in (61cm) in diameter. This is true whether you're using indoor or outdoor bulbs. Regular gardening soil won't have the nutrients your bulbs need to thrive. Look for houseplant potting mix. If you like, you can also add fertilizer to the soil and mix it in to the soil. A granular 5-10-10 or 9-9-6 bulb formulation fertilizer is the best to use with your bulbs. Different types of bulb require different depths of planting. Give them at least 2in (5.1cm) of soil below them, and about 2in (5.1cm) of space above the top of the soil. For example, tulips and daffodils should be planted about 6in (15cm) deep. So your pot should be at least 10in (25cm) tall.

Summary: Choose a pot with drainage holes. Make sure the pot is big enough to insulate the bulbs. Select a high-quality potting mix. Pick a pot tall and wide enough to accommodate your bulb type.

Restoring the iPod may require downloading the newest version of iTunes or the latest iPod software. Check to make sure you have the latest version by clicking on the iTunes menu, and selecting Check for updates... After a few moments, it should be listed in the left frame of the iTunes window. If you don't have the frame open, you can select your device from the dropdown menu in the top-right corner of iTunes. Click on your iPod to open the Summary tab of the main iTunes window. If your device is not recognized and the display shows a sad face, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode before restoring. If you cannot enter Disk Mode, then there is a hardware issue. This will erase everything on your iPod and restore it to factory conditions. Accept the warning prompts and your restore will begin. Mac users will be asked for the administrator password. If using Windows, you may see one or more restore options prompting iTunes to automatically download the latest iPod Software. Holding down the SHIFT key before clicking the Restore button will allow you to browse your computer for version of firmware you wish to use. iTunes will display a progress bar while it is working. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring: Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (for older iPod models). Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (applies to new iPod models). During the second stage of the restore process, the iPod will display a progress bar on the screen. It is very important that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage. The progress bar may be difficult to see because the backlight on the iPod display may be turned off. Once the restore process is complete, iTunes will open the Setup Assistant. You will be asked to name the iPod and select your sync options. At this point, the iPod has been fully reset. Sync it to your computer to reload your music.
Summary: Make sure that your computer has an active internet connection. Launch iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer. Click Restore. Wait for the first stage of the restore process to complete. Keep the iPod connected. Setup your iPod.
