Problem: Article: Take your potatoes and place them in a medium pot. Fill the pot with water and boil it on high heat for 20-30 minutes, or until tender. Take them off the stove and let them cool. Leave the skins on the potatoes to help keep nutrients in the potatoes. Take the peas and place them in a small pot. Boil them on high for 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender. Drain them and let them cool. These can be canned or frozen peas. If they are frozen, they may need to cook a little longer before they are tender enough to eat. To julienne your cabbage, cut it into chunks. Take the chunks and cut thin, long slices out of the cabbage. To julienne the cucumber, slice off both ends. Then cut the cucumber into 2 inch sections. Then cut thin strips of cucumber from the smaller pieces. Place the cut pieces of each in a large bowl. If the cabbage slices are too long, cut them in half. You want them to be be able to be easily eaten. You can peel the cucumber if you want. The rind tends to be tough, but it does have good nutrients in it. Take the potatoes, apples, carrots, and pineapple and cut them into cubes. Make sure to remove the seeds from the apples. Add these cubes to the bowl with the cabbage and the cucumbers. Mix them all together. You don't have to cut the pineapple if the chunks are small enough for you. You can peel the apples and carrots if you want, but they have beneficial vitamins and minerals in them. Add the white pepper powder, sugar, salt, fresh cream, and mayonnaise. Mix the ingredients together well. Make sure the ingredients are covered evenly. Once the ingredients are mixed, top with the raisins. Refrigerate for a few hours or until the salad is completely chilled.
Summary: Boil the potatoes. Boil the peas. Julienne the cabbage and cucumber. Chop the rest of the ingredients. Add the remaining ingredients.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If your school has closed down since you graduated or they could not help you, get in touch with the office of the school district. Their website should be easy to find through an Internet search. Even if you can reach your school district, there's a chance they'll refer you to the Department of Education, if they handle diplomas in your state.

Departments of education usually have websites that are easy both to find and to navigate. You might find this page under an unexpected heading in the site directory. On the page for the New York Department of Education, for instance, the information about requesting diplomas is under a section titled "High School equivalency." If you can't find the information you need by navigating the website, try a Google search for something like "Tennessee Department of Education copy of diploma." The school district or Department of Education website should have contact information if you need additional help.

Give your doctor a full list of any medications and supplements you're currently taking, so that they can let you know about any potential interactions.
Summary: Consult with your doctor before trying supplements.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Choose a container large enough for your aluminum pieces to fit inside and be completely submerged. Sprinkle a few tablespoons of an oxygen-based cleaner (like Oxi-Clean, Clorox Oxygen Action, All Oxi-Active, or Shout Oxy Powder) in the bottom of the container. You can make your own oxygen cleaner by combining 1 part sodium percarbonate (dry, powdered hydrogen peroxide) and 1 part sodium carbonate (washing soda or soda ash). Take care not to confuse either of those powders with sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). If you'd like your aluminum to have patterns in the aging, you can create them with aluminum foil. Crumple up several pieces of aluminum foil and place them in the bottom of the container, on top of the oxygen-based cleaner. Press them flat into the bottom of the container. Add a few more tablespoons of oxygen-based cleaner on top of the aluminum foil. You can put templates, gears, or other items on top of the aluminum that will prevent the covered sections from being aged, if you'd like to make designs or shapes on your aluminum. Several tablespoons should suffice. Spread the cleaner evenly over the metal and try to avoid building up piles of the powder on top of the aluminum. In order to keep your aluminum pieces from floating in the water, place a heavy object on top of them. You can use another piece of metal like a weight or a gear, or even a wrapped stack of dinner plates. Pour cold water in the container until the entire piece of aluminum is submerged. Add up to inch (1.3 cm) of water over the top of the aluminum to ensure it is completely covered. Carefully tip your container a little bit to one side and then the other in order to get the oxygen-based cleaner to flow. If the container is too heavy for you to move, gently agitate the mixture with a long spoon. Swirl the mixture to get the powder to flow through the water. The oxygen bubbles produced by the cleaner are what cause the oxidation of the aluminum and make it change colors. Though you may begin to notice the aluminum changing color after four hours, for best results you should leave the aluminum to soak for at least 24 hours. You can leave it for up to two days if you desire a deeper color change. Take the aluminum piece out of the water. Use a razor blade or the edge of a plastic card (like a hotel room key or credit card) to remove any heavy crusts of oxygen-based cleaner left on the aluminum. Mix 1 tablespoon (14.8ml) of distilled white vinegar with each cup of water. Pour the mixture over the aluminum or soak the aluminum in the mixture for a few minutes. Then rinse the aluminum with plain water. Set the aluminum in a dish drainer to dry, if the piece is small enough, or prop it against a hard surface to dry if the piece is large. This aging process creates flowing gray tones in the aluminum.
Summary:
Sprinkle oxygen-based cleaner in the bottom of a container. Place crumpled aluminum foil in the container to create patterns. Lay your aluminum pieces on top of the aluminum foil. Sprinkle more oxygen-based cleaner on top of the aluminum pieces. Place something heavy on top of the aluminum. Pour cold water in the container. Tip the container gently to get the cleaner to flow. Add another few tablespoons of oxygen-based cleaner to the water. Allow the aluminum to soak for at least 24 hours. Remove the aluminum from the water. Rinse the aluminum with water and vinegar. Allow the aluminum to dry.
