Q: Use a garden fork to dig down towards the plant’s root system. Leave about 3 in (7.6 cm) between the quackgrass and the hole to avoid damaging the roots. Look for a horizontal, white stem called a rhizome, then clear the dirt away from it. Digging may be a little difficult if you have healthy, non-invasive plants in the area. Try to dig up grass and other plants without damaging them. Set them aside until you are able to move them elsewhere or replant them. Quackgrass rhizomes are very hardy and often grow further than you expect. Lift the exposed roots out of the soil and check to see that you got the whole plant. Any broken roots likely will sprout a new patch of quackgrass, so take your time. Pulling the plants up by hand is better than tilling since a rototiller may cut up the roots. If you try tilling, set the rototiller for 12 in (30 cm) and work in the summer. Turn up the ground and wait at least 4 days for the roots to dry out. Push the soil back into the holes with a shovel or another tool. Then, drag a rake over the ground to level it. Rake away any bits of plant material you suspect may be from the quackgrass. Throw these away to ensure they don’t have a chance to grow again. Cut the plastic so it fits over the soil infested with quackgrass. Leave the sheets about 3 in (7.6 cm) larger than the areas you wish to treat so the quackgrass isn’t able to spread further. Then, anchor the plastic sheet down with rocks, bricks, or stakes.  Plastic solarization sheets are available at many home improvement stores. Make sure you get a clear sheet so sunlight is able to reach the soil. Solarization will kill any other plants trapped underneath the sheet. Cutting the sheet up is a way to treat smaller patches, so leave the sheet intact only if you wish to clear out larger areas or severe infestations. Solarization works best in the spring and summer, when the soil reaches an adequate temperature to dry out the quackgrass. Leave the plastic undisturbed to give the soil plenty of time to heat up.  The average temperature outside needs to be around 60 °F (16 °C) or higher for this to work. You do not need to clear out the dead plants in the solarized areas. Till them into the ground for use as fertilizer. Fill the area with new plants to prevent the quackgrass from growing back. If you treated an area of your lawn, for example, spread seeds from whatever type of grass you already have. Alternatively, turn the barren area into a garden with competitive crops like buckwheat, oats, rye, wheat, clover, or sorghum. Another option is to cover the area with a 3 in (7.6 cm) of mulch for at least 6 months. An opaque plastic mulch is the best option for preventing quackgrass, but organic mulch also works.
A: Dig a hole about 1 ft (0.30 m) deep and wide near the quackgrass. Pull the quackgrass out of the ground without damaging it. Backfill the holes and smooth out the soil. Drape a piece of clear plastic over recurrent quackgrass. Leave the plastic sheet in place for 6 weeks in warm weather. Reseed the area with any plant you wish to grow.

Q: Once you've written your cards, you can organize them one of two ways. The easiest way is to alphabetize them by the authors' last names, as that is how you will be organizing your reference page. Just put them in order in a box (or use a rubber band to keep them together), adding sticky notes where you change letters. The second way to organize is by the numbers in the right-hand corner, if you're using that system. You can add sticky notes every tenth number to make it easier to look up information.
A: Place your cards in alphabetical order. Order you cards with numbers.

Q: Meanwhile, prepare a 13- by 9-inch (33- by 23-cm) baking dish by coating the bottom with nonstick cooking spray. You could also line the baking dish with nonstick aluminum foil or parchment paper, but doing so may make it more difficult to spoon out the juices after you finish cooking the fish. Place the cod fillets in your prepared baking dish, positioning them so that they sit in a single layer. Do not stack the fish in multiple layers. Doing so may prevent the fish from cooking evenly. Drizzle the lemon juice and olive oil over the cod fillets evenly. Finish by sprinkling the seasoning blend over the fish.  If you do not have seasoning blend on hand or would prefer a different spice, you can replace the seasoning blend with something else. Try 1/2 tsp (2.5 m) each salt and ground black pepper, 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) garlic powder and 1 tsp (5 ml) dried parsley, or 1 tsp (5 ml) paprika. For more even flavor, season both sides of the cod fillets. Place the cod fillets in the oven and cook until the fish begins to brown and can be flaked easily with a fork. If using frozen fish fillets instead of fresh or thawed, add another 5 to 10 minutes to the overall cook time. Remove the cod fillets from your baking dish and transfer them to individual serving plates. Use a spoon or pastry brush to drizzle the pan juices over the plated cod.
A: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Arrange the cod in your prepared baking dish. Season the fillets. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with pan juices.

Q: Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen, or find the Windows logo key on your computer's keyboard and press it. If you're using Windows 8, instead place your mouse cursor in the top-right side of the screen and then click the magnifying glass icon in the pop-out window. Doing so will search your computer for the Command Prompt program. It's the black box at the top of the Start window. Command Prompt will open. If you're using a computer with restricted privileges, you may not be able to open Command Prompt. Make sure you place a space after start. This must be the file's system name, not its shortcut name (for example, Command Prompt's system name is cmd). Common program names include the following:   File Explorer - explorer   Calculator - calc   Notepad - notepad   Character Map - charmap   Paint - mspaint   Command Prompt (new window) - cmd   Windows Media Player - wmplayer   Task Manager - taskmgr Once your command resembles start program_name, doing so will run the "start" command for your selected program. You should see the program open within a few seconds of entering the command. If your selected program won't run, it is most likely in a folder that isn't in the Command Prompt's search path. You can add the program's folder to the Command Prompt path to fix this problem.
A:
Open Start . Type command prompt into Start. Click Command Prompt . Type start  into Command Prompt. Type the program's name into Command Prompt. Press ↵ Enter.
