Q: For easy clean-up, consider covering the baking sheet with aluminum foil first, then spraying the foil with cooking spray. Start by cutting the potatoes in half lengthwise, and then cutting each half into four wedges. You can choose to peel the potatoes first, or leave them unpeeled. Mix together the spices first, then add the oil, and stir everything together with a fork or small whisk. You will be adding the potato wedges into the bowl, so make sure that it is big enough. A quick and simple way to do this would be to cover the bowl with a lid, and then shaking it a few times. Make sure that the potato wedges are not clumped together, or they won't bake properly. If you want crispier wedges, make sure that they aren't touching; use a separate baking sheet, if necessary. After about 20 minutes or so, turn the wedges over using a spatula; this ensures that they bake evenly. If you'd like, you can season them further with some fresh parsley and freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.
A: Preheat your oven to 400F (205C) and coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Cut the potatoes into wedges. Combine the oil and seasonings together in a large mixing bowl. Add the potatoes, then toss them until they are evenly coated. Spread the potatoes across the baking sheet in an even layer. Bake the potatoes for 40 to 45 minutes. Use a spatula or a pair of tongs to serve the fries.

Q: The stock and barrel of your rubber band rifle should be made of a material soft enough that you can cut a groove into it. Wood is likely the cheapest and most readily available option, though bamboo and similar materials can also make an effective stock. Your stock should be about two feet (60 cm) in length. You can find suitable wood for your stock from a sturdy tree branch, a hardware store, or a lumber yard. Spare handles for tools, frequently sold at hardware stores, are an excellent option to consider. In addition to your stock and barrel, you'll need a release along with something to attach your rubber band release to your gun. All in all, you'll need: Clothespin (for release) Pencil Glue (wood glue, superglue, etc.) Knife Rubber band Use a knife or a cutting tool, like a small woodworking saw, to cut a notch in the front of your stock where your barrel comes to an end. This will be where you load your rubber band.
A: Find a suitable piece of wood for the stock and barrel. Collect the rest of your rubber band rifle parts. Notch your stock at the front of the barrel.

Q: The longer you can keep running it, the better. Unless, of course, your old car is costing you more money than what you can afford to put into it. Once the car is paid for (60 months on a standard car loan), keep the car in good operating condition and continue to drive it. As you commute with your car to work and elsewhere, make sure to keep making your monthly payments into a savings account. Scenario = If you make 400 dollar monthly payments on your Jeep, and pay it off in 4 years, the Jeep can be driven for at least another year or two. If you continue to make 400 dollar payments to your savings account for 16 months, you will have a total of 6400 dollars to put down towards a new car. You can do this for longer and be able to pay for the new car in full. Many employers allow you to control how you want your paychecks deposited. If possible, have your monthly payment direct-deposited into this new account. This ensures that you won't be tempted to use those funds for other expenses throughout the month. Too many times you may feel tempted to buy a new car when your old one is doing just fine. The Beemers and Benzes are nice, but they'll make you broke unless you can afford it.
A: Stick it out with your old car. Keep the old care in good condition. Keep up the payments. Consider opening a separate bank account dedicated to saving for your new car. Don't get caught up in the wants of life.

Q: Contact dermatitis usually shows up when you've been touched by a substance that triggers a reaction, like poison ivy or oak or latex gloves. The rash usually will crop up suddenly, within hours of contact. It may also last for two to four weeks. There are two basic kinds of contact dermatitis, allergic or irritant. Allergic dermatitis occurs when you have contact with an allergenic substance and it produces a delayed reaction. This may develop over a period of 48 to 96 hours, or it may take even longer, between seven and 10 days after the first exposure. Allergenic contact dermatitis can also cause oozing blisters, intense itching, and sometimes swelling in the face, eyes, or genitals. Irritant contact dermatitis occurs when skin comes into contact with an irritant, like a detergent or solvent. Skin damage may be permanent if the irritant is powerful, like acid or lye soap. This kind of dermatitis may also cause mild swelling, itching, blisters, painful ulcers, or tight-feeling and cracked skin. If you note a rash and think you may have come into contact with a plant like poison oak, ivy, or sumac, make sure you wash everything that may have been in contact with the plant with cold water. This includes clothing, gardening tools, sports equipment, and pets. Contact dermatitis happens when a substance comes into contact with the skin your reaction will therefore be limited more or less to where the substance touched you (so if you ran through poison oak with pants on but no shoes, your feet will react but your legs will be spared). If the rash is localized, try to determine if the source is in fact a foreign substance. Is the rash on your hands or face? Contact dermatitis most often affects these areas and rarely occurs on the scalp, palms of hands or soles of the feet. Is the rash confined to the area that was exposed? A delayed reaction sometimes makes it look like a rash from contact dermatitis is spreading, but for the most part it should only occur where your skin was in contact with the irritant or allergen. Contact dermatitis may cause many other symptoms besides redness and a rash. Depending on the strength of the irritant or allergen, you may have pain, blistering, bumps, and severely dry and cracked skin. You may also show non-dermatological signs if the cause is an allergen, like burning lungs, eyes, or nasal passages. Dry skin with a glazed, parched aspect is often the first sign with irritants. Thickened skin and cracking can follow if contact continues for a longer period of time. In very severe cases of exposure to an irritant, the skin may also exhibit burns or tissue death (necrosis). Burning eyes, nose, and lungs can indicate allergic contact dermatitis, but can also point to an irritant in the air.
A:
Beware of sudden rashes. Check that the rash is localized. Note other swelling, blistering, burning, or tenderness.
