Q: This special way to preserve color images requires only the following supplies: fine tissue paper; an iron or other flattering material like a stack of books; a canvas; and sealer glue, such as Modge Podge. Place the tissue paper onto a table or other hard surface and lay the framed canvas upside down onto it; the front of the canvas and the tissue paper should be touching. With a pencil, trace around all four sides of the canvas, and then cut around the four corners of the tissue paper. Use the high setting without any steam. This may take a few tries, but the end result will be worth it. Adjust your printer settings so that the printed image is only as big as the tissue paper. For this reason, it's best to use a standard size when selecting a canvas to use. An 8 1/2 x 11 canvas, for example, would be extremely easy to work with, while a nonstandard-sized canvas would be more difficult to get a match for. Use a brush to get good coverage with your adhesive. Get one corner centered perfectly before placing the whole image down onto the canvas. Work from the inside and brush outward for best results. Use the same coat of Modge Podge, if desired, or pick another type of (matte, etc.) finish to seal your newly-minted canvas photo.
A: Gather your materials. Trim the tissue paper so that it's the same size as the canvas you'll be using. Straighten out any kinks or creases in the tissue paper with a clothes iron. Manually place the tissue paper into your printer tray and print out your desired image. Apply a thin coat of Modge Podge to the canvas, making sure to get even coverage. Working quickly, center the tissue paper picture over the canvas before pressing it down onto the adhesive. With a clean foam brush, smooth out any creases in the tissue paper. If necessary, trim any remaining tissue paper from the sides of the canvas for a clean look. Cover with another layer of clear adhesive before letting dry (optional).

Q: When you're done with the last ride of the season, get your jet ski out of the water as soon as possible. With your trailer securely attached to the back of your vehicle, slowly back your vehicle down the ramp until most of the trailer is underwater. Then get onto your jet ski, drive it up onto the trailer, and hook it to the trailer. Get back into your vehicle and slowly drive forward to safely remove the jet ski from the water. If possible, have a friend assist you with this so that one of you can drive the vehicle and the other can drive the jet ski. The bow (front) needs to be higher than the stern (rear) of your jet ski so it can be drained properly. Secure your jet ski on the trailer so that the back of it is lower than the front. Turn the jet ski on and alternate between moving the throttle back and forth in short bursts. Do this in 30 second intervals to prevent overheating. Continue this until water is no longer being expelled from the jet ski. Use RV antifreeze only! It is much less harmful to the environment. Do not use regular automotive antifreeze. The antifreeze will prevent any fluids from freezing in the exhaust system while the jet ski is stored. Mix one gallon (3.8 L) of RV antifreeze and one gallon (3.8 L) of water in a five gallon (18.9 L) bucket. Hook a hose or water pump up to the flush outlet while keeping the other end submerged in the antifreeze mixture. Turn the engine on and off once the entire mixture has gone through the exhaust system.
A: Remove your jet ski from the water. Reposition the jet ski for draining. Turn the throttle back and forth to drain the water. Mix water and antifreeze in a bucket. Flush the mixture through the exhaust system.

Q: It's easiest to socialize a cat when it is a kitten. A kitten is still learning what is "normal." If it learns at a young age that being handled and being sociable is "normal," it's more likely to be a sociable cat who's willing to be petted by strangers. Work on petting the cat all over. Start with strokes the cat enjoys, such as pats on the head, and work up to stroking it all over. Try holding its paw for a few seconds, as well as its tail. After holding it for a few seconds, reward it with petting it likes. Keep working on to petting and touching areas it doesn't like as much. If the cat gets mad, it's time to stop and try again later. Have strangers (to the cat) come into your home. Let the cat approach them first. When it does, let your friend try to pet it if the cat will let them. You can try to encourage interaction by giving your friend a treat to offer the cat or a toy the cat can play with. Give your kitten the chance to befriend other kittens. Some areas have kitten classes specifically designed to help you socialize your cat. However, if your area doesn't, consider taking your kitten to friends' houses, where you let them calmly hold the kitten. Tell them to pet it softly and talk to it in a calm voice. As an added bonus, this step will help your cat get used to riding in the car, and it won't just associate the car with going to the vet's office. It also helps to have the kitten meet other animals on these trips.
A:
Begin young. Work on socialization in your home. Bring strangers to socialize. Take your kitten out to socialize.
