article: Use dark or milk chocolate if you are trying to get a nice jet black color. Otherwise, you will need to use white chocolate to make any other colored chocolate.  Choose a white chocolate with a low viscosity, or that appears very thin when you melt it. Tollhouse's White Chocolate Chips are one of the better brands for coloring. Go for chips instead of bars, as the smaller the pieces of chocolate are, the faster they will melt. Never add a water based food coloring to chocolate. It was cause the chocolate to seize, or turn lumpy and solid. You want to create colored chocolate that is smooth and easy to work with. So skip the cheap water based colors and go for oil or powder colors.  You can buy oil based coloring and powder coloring online.  One good brand is Americolor, which creates strong colors without having to add a lot of oil to the chocolate.  If you are trying to create a pale color like light blue or yellow, go for oil based colors as you only have to add very little coloring to the white chocolate to get the color you want.  If you are trying to create a more vibrant color, like a bright yellow or a bold red, buy a powder coloring or paste coloring. The more oil you add to the chocolate, the less smooth it will be. So using a small amount of powder coloring or paste coloring should create a vibrant color without adding too much oil to the chocolate. Vegetable shortening usually comes in a round plastic tub and is hard in appearance, almost like butter. The shortening will help the chocolate to set properly on your candy or on a cake pop. It will also speed up the melting time of the chocolate. Vegetable oil will only make the chocolate more loose and limp, meaning you will end up with messy chocolate covered candies or limp cake pops. If you have access to a stovetop, a large metal bowl, and a pot with a handle, you can boil the chocolate on the stove instead of in the microwave. The double boiler method works a bit faster and you have more control over the chocolate as it melts. Glass conducts heat evenly and quickly, so its the vessel of choice for melting chocolate in the microwave.

Don't allow huge rooms to dwarf your pictures. Be conscious of furniture placement. Tailor your picture placement to suit the room's function."
article: This seems like a no-brainer, but it's easy to forget - different pictures will create different visual impressions in a given room. Unless you're going for an avant-garde, dissonant clash between your picture and the room it's hung in, try to match the picture to the purpose for the room. Classical landscape style paintings and portraits are great for living rooms, while smaller family photos are great for halls, staircases, bedrooms and bathrooms. Impressionistic paintings of fruit or cookware are an appetizing addition to kitchens. Use common sense - you know the impression you want your room to give visitors, so use pictures and paintings that help you achieve that impression. Abstract paintings can be incredibly vivid additions to a room - however, if you plan to hang a painting that's nothing more than an assortment of shapes and colors, you might want to make sure the colors match the rest of the room's décor (see: How to Match Colors.) One of any room's biggest assets is its sense of space. A high ceiling can make you feel like you're in a chapel. Large windows can guide your sight toward the horizon. Don't let your pictures obstruct a room's natural sense of space!  Too many pictures can give a wall a cluttered " police evidence board" feel.  Pictures on a wall should never compete for space - if you have to move old pictures around to make room for a new one, you may want to consider a new home for your pictures. Many walls are best-suited by only one or two pictures.  Or no images at all. If you've got great wallpaper, a killer rug, or an amazing centerpiece, don't be too hasty to distract attention with imposing collections of pictures. A large picture can make a cramped room seem larger. Similarly, pictures hung high on the wall will improve a room's dimensions by distracting attention from the imposing wall surfaces at the viewer's eye-level. For instance, a gorgeous print high on the wall of a cramped bathroom will lend the stuffy room a sense of dignity. Use big pictures, if possible, but don't take up the entire wall space. Covering one of a cramped room's entire walls with one picture will have an overpowering effect. Big, spacious rooms present problems of their own. High, plain walls with widely-spaced pictures look like they belong in a modern art museum, not a family home. Balance the arrangement of your pictures so as not to leave any huge barren patches on your wall. Furniture can be a huge help here - tall bookcases and wardrobes take up lots of wall space. If you've got an interesting wallpaper or even a monochrome painted wall, you can get away with more unused space when hanging your pictures. Plain, un-decorated walls commit the cardinal sin of making a room seem boxlike and cold. Furniture and wall art work together to form a room's sense of space. Coordinate them intelligently to make to the most of your living space. Try to place pictures places people will naturally look without interfering with the normal functions of the room. Small pictures are great for slim stretches of wall in a kitchen, but not if you can't open cabinets because the picture's frame is in the way. Pictures are great above corner chairs and tables fo a stately yet-lived in feel, but not at heights where people are likely to bang their heads on them. Use common sense - make note of your daily routine to get a sense of where your eyes spend most of their time. Follow the two thirds rule - art placed above a piece of furniture should be at least two thirds as wide as the furniture itself. For instance, a ten foot wide sofa should have at least about six and a half feet of art above it. This rule applies to individual pictures as well as clusters of smaller pictures. For instance, many living rooms contain sets of couches facing each other so people can sit and talk. In this case, give your guests something to look at by placing pictures behind each couch (one designer recommends hanging pictures one palm width above the top of the couch.). In the kitchen, a few small photos in the corner above a breakfast nook table can liven up meals and serve as great conversation pieces when you're having guests over.

Before you get down and dirty with your hardware and computer settings, check to see what kind of speeds you are getting and compare that to the advertised speeds for your service. There are a variety of speed test sites on the net, just search for "speed test" in Google and pick the top few results.  Different tests will give you different results. Even the same test may give you different results between tests. This is due to the location of test servers and the number of people sharing your connection. Take multiple tests and find the average speed you are getting. You may need to have Flash installed to run the test. If given the option, pick the test server closest to your physical location. This will help get you the most accurate results (on speedtest.net, this is chosen automatically based on ping) Check with your service provider to see what speeds you should be getting. Keep in mind that speeds advertised by your provider are "best case" speeds, and you may not be able to actually get that number on a regular basis, especially if using WiFi.  If you haven't upgraded your internet in a long time, you may be able to get better speeds for less money. Companies aren't usually keen to inform you of better deals, so check to see if new services are available that weren't when you signed up. Check with all the providers in your area. Be aware of the megabyte/megabit difference. Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) advertise in megabits, not megabytes. There are 8 megabits (Mb) in a megabyte (MB), so if you are paying for 25 megabits per second (Mbps), then that's just over 3 megabytes per second (MBps) of actual maximum transfer speed. If your test result was measured in Kbps, then you divide that number by 1000 to attain your measurement in Mbps. Restarting your modem and router can help alleviate some network issues by cleaning up old data and re-provisioning your modem configuration from your internet service provider. If necessary, your modem will automatically download firmware updates from the ISP. See this guide for details on resetting your network. If you are using a wireless router, some devices can affect your connection due to interference. Wireless routers come in multiple varieties; 802.11 b, g, and n (2.4 GHz) or 802.11 a (5.8 GHz). Common devices that can interfere with your wireless connection are microwaves and cell phones, many of which operate in the 2.4 GHz range. In order to minimize interference, turn off data on your phone and move your microwave oven away from wireless devices and your router when you're using the connection. Sometimes you just have a bad connection that can only be fixed on your provider's end. They can usually tell if your connection is substandard without having a technician come to your home by reading signal levels off of your modem. If necessary, they will send a line technician out to your house or neighborhood to check their infrastructure. If the problem is on your end, you might be charged a fee for the visit, so it's important to try troubleshooting over the phone or internet first. If you are connected to the internet via a Wi-Fi router, poor signal can lead to lower speeds and dropped connections. Move your router closer to your computer if possible, or move the computer so that it is closer to the router or keep the router on top of a cupboard to transmit better signal.  Clean out the dust from your router and modem once in a while using a can of compressed air. This will help keep the unit from overheating and consequently, improve its stability. Maintain proper ventilation around all electrical components to avoid overheating. When you activated DSL, you hooked the line from your phone jack into one side of a rectangular box filter. On the other side, you have 2 lines coming out, 1 for your phone and 1 for your modem. If you are using a DSL connection over your land-line, make sure that you have high-quality filters in place to get optimum signal speed. If you are using satellite internet, your internet connection might be altered because of wind, heavy snow, rain, lightning, static, or other electrical interference.
