Problem: Article: Use a 6-inch by 6-inch (15-cm by 15-cm) tin and line it with wax paper or parchment paper. You could use candy molds instead of a tin. Most molds do not need to be prepared in any special manner. Just make sure that the molds are clean and dry before use. Fill the bottom portion of a double boiler with roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water. Place the double boiler on the stove and heat on medium until the water starts simmering. If you do not have an actual double boiler, place a heat-resistant bowl or pan over a saucepan. The lip of the bowl should be able to rest on the lip of the saucepan, and the bottom of the bowl should not extend low enough to touch the surface of the water in the saucepan. Place the cocoa butter in the top part of your double boiler and heat it gently, stirring occasionally, until the block of butter completely melts. The cocoa butter should reach a temperature of 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius). Monitor the temperature using a candy thermometer. Consider breaking or cutting the cocoa butter into similarly sized pieces before adding it to the double boiler. Doing so ensures that the butter will melt quicker and at an even pace. Note that cocoa butter melts quickly and you should not allow it to overheat. In fact, you may want to turn the heat setting down from medium to low or medium-low. Chocolate that becomes too hot will develop a pale white coating known as "bloom." True dark chocolate uses cocoa butter. If you are searching for a slightly healthier alternative, however, you can swap out the cocoa butter for coconut oil. The coconut oil should be melted and treated in the same way throughout the recipe. Stir the three ingredients together in a medium bowl until evenly mixed. You can use any cocoa powder for this recipe. Refined cocoa powders have a great taste, are easier to find, and less expensive, but the refining process removes some of the antioxidants of the cocoa. Natural or unprocessed cocoa powder is packed with more antioxidants and is the healthiest option. Use sugar, honey, or maple syrup for your sweetener. Note that dark chocolate prepared with sugar can be stored at room temperature but chocolate prepared with honey or maple syrup will need to be refrigerated. The amount of sweetener you use will change the cacao percentage of the dark chocolate. Using 1 Tbsp (15 ml) produces 85% dark chocolate. Using 1-1/2 Tbsp (22.5 ml) produces 73% dark chocolate. Using 2 Tbsp (30 ml) produces 60% dark chocolate. Gradually pour the cocoa powder mixture into the saucepan of cocoa butter, mixing thoroughly until the new product is smooth. Remove the mixture from the heat when ready. Allow the entire mixture to return to a temperature of 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius) before removing it from the heat.
Summary: Prepare a small mold or tin. Heat water in a double boiler. Melt the cocoa butter. Combine the cocoa powder, sweetener, and vanilla separately. Combine the two mixtures.

Problem: Article: When reading aloud, the speed at which you read can significantly affect your listeners' understanding and attention. Choose a pace that is not too fast or too slow. Read slowly enough that your listeners are able to understand everything you're saying and have enough time to process the information. However, you also want to keep the story moving so that listeners will not become bored. Nerves can cause you to speak faster than usual, even though it might not feel like you are. When you're in front of an audience, make an effort to slow down your speech a little, even if it feels a bit unnatural to you. Chances are you're talking faster than you think. When setting the pace, it is better to speak slower than faster. The audience will likely still pay attention if things are moving a little slow, but you may lose them completely by talking too fast. Mumbling or mispronouncing words can make it difficult for your audience to understand what you're saying. To improve your pronunciation, practice articulating certain sounds more emphatically through exercises. One thing you can do is highlight each word that ends in the letters t, d, p, b, k, or g, and practice over-pronouncing them. Doing so will help you pronounce your words more clearly in your regular speech. Performing daily tongue twisters can also help you articulate your words more clearly. Some tongue twisters you can use are "red-leather, yellow-leather" and "eleven benevolent elephants." If there are words you constantly mispronounce, take some extra time learning how to properly say these words and practice until you get it right. On the day you will be speaking, keep your voice warmed and ready by singing or humming throughout the day. This will help ensure your voice is ready when you go to speak so you don't sound strained. You can also repeat tongue twisters throughout the day to relax your tongue and lips. Repeat the phrase "You see Oz" in an exaggerated manner to stretch your jaw and bring more flexibility to your tongue. What you eat and drink can affect how your voice sounds. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water, including a cup before and after you drink any caffeinated beverages. It is best to avoid caffeinated beverages altogether, if possible. Mints, nuts, and fatty foods can cause heartburn or hoarseness in your voice, so avoid these when possible. If you can, bring some water with you when you go up to read. If you find yourself getting hoarse, stop and take a sip.
Summary: Pace yourself. Practice pronunciation. Warm up before you speak. Drink water and avoid caffeine and fatty foods.

Problem: Article: If you're using Windows 10, you'll have two different Paint apps on your PC. One is called Paint and the other is called Paint 3D. Paint 3D does not have an Invert Colors option. The one you can use to invert colors is called Paint, and you can open it by following these steps: Click the Windows search bar or magnifying glass on the taskbar. Type paint. Click Paint. It's the icon that looks like a palette and paintbrush. To do so, click the File menu at the top-left corner, select Open, and then navigate to your image. Once you find it, select it and click Open. It's on the toolbar that runs along the top of the app in the "Image" panel. A list of selection options will expand. Use this option if you want to invert the colors in the entire image. If you'd prefer to select just one part of the image, choose Free-form selection instead, and then use the mouse to trace the desired area. A menu will expand. It should be the last option. For a quick color inversion, press the shortcut Ctrl+ Shift+I.
Summary: Open Microsoft Paint. Open your image in Paint. Click the Select menu. Click Select All on the menu. Right-click the selected area. Click Invert color on the menu.

Problem: Article: It is rarely necessary to soak apples or use ingredients other than tap water or vinegar to wash them. Fancy waters that involve soaking apples can change their taste. Stick to tap water for the most part, and vinegar if your apples are very dirty. Elaborate washes will do little to clean apples. Many people think organic apples do not need to be washed. While organic apples use fewer pesticides, they are still prone to environmental bacteria and can be contaminated during transport. Even organic apples should be washed under tap prior to eating. Moldy produce does not have to be discarded if only a small corner is infected with mold. If you see a small part of your apple is moldy, cut away that portion with a knife. Unless an apple is completely covered in a layer of fuzzy mold, there is no need to throw it away.
Summary:
Avoid fancy washes. Wash apples even if they're organic. Do not automatically throw out moldy produce.
