Problem: Article: Also called slugging average, SA, or SLG, this is a player's average number of bases per bat. If a player has an (unrealistic) slugging percentage of 1, their average result was a single. This only measures number of bases from hits, not from walks or hit by pitch. Ignoring the bases out of the batter's control makes this a more accurate measure of offensive power. Most player stats don't include singles, but it's easy to figure out from other stats. First, add Home Runs + Triples + Doubles to get all the hits that aren't singles. Then subtract your answer from the total number of Hits to get the number of Singles. For example, Willie McCovey has career stats of 521 Home Runs, 46 Triples, and 353 Doubles, adding up to 920. Subtract 920 from his career Hits of 2211 to get the number of Singles: 1291. Add together (Singles) + (2 x Doubles) + (3 x Triples) + (4 x Home Runs) to get the total number of bases. Willie McCovey scored a total number of bases equal to (1291) + (2 x 353) + (3 x 46) + (4 x 521) = 1291 + 706 + 138 + 2084 = 4219. Divide total bases by the number of at bats to get the slugging percentage. Willie McCovey had 8197 At Bats, so his career slugging percentage is 4219 ÷ 8197 = 0.5147 (rounded to 0.515). On average, he scored a little more than one base for every two at bats.
Summary: Understand slugging percentage. Find the number of singles. Calculate the number of bases. Divide your answer by at bats.

Problem: Article: Warm sea salt water can help with pain and it may also help to heal an infection. To make a warm sea salt water rinse, mix about one teaspoon of sea salt with one cup of water. Stir until the salt dissolves in the water. Then, sip enough of the fluid to swish in your mouth and swish for about a minute. Spit out the fluid when you are done. Repeat this process several times throughout the day to help with pain and promote healing. Garlic has been shown to have some powerful antibacterial properties. Try using fresh garlic in a compress for a tooth infection. You can either use fresh, crushed garlic or one teaspoon of dried garlic powder mixed with one teaspoon of water.  To make the garlic compress, place the fresh crushed garlic or garlic powder paste into a clean nylon stocking. Gather the garlic into one small section of the nylon stocking so that it forms a small ball or lump. Then, apply the compress to the affected tooth and hold it there for about five minutes. Repeat this process four or five times per day. Some people use apple cider vinegar to help treat infections, so it might help with a tooth infection. Mix one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar with about one cup of water. Then, swish the solution in your mouth for about a minute and spit it out.  Repeat this rinse a few times per day. Clove oil may help ease some of the pain caused by an infected tooth. There is also some evidence that using a toothpaste that contains clove oil may be an effective treatment for plaque.  To use clove oil, put a few drops on a cotton swab and dab the oil onto the affected tooth. Leave the clove oil on your tooth for about three to five minutes. Then, rinse out your mouth with some salt water. Repeat this treatment four or five times per day.
Summary: Rinse with warm sea salt water. Make a garlic compress. Swish with apple cider vinegar. Apply clove oil.

Problem: Article: You can use any size jar, though keep in mind the number of Scobys you want to store in it. Wash your jar thoroughly with soap and water.  You can squirt some soap into the jar and soak it, then rinse the jar to wash away soap residue. For example, you can use a a 0.5 US gal (1.9 L) glass jar. Over time, you will add more Scobys into the same jar to create your “hotel.” This is helpful in case 1 of your brews goes bad. That way, you will have back up Scobys to use for new batches. You can place a few Scobys or several inside the same jar. You can use some of your recent kombucha brew or use a bottle of store bought kombucha. Pour in some kombucha, and then dump in a few cups of freshly brewed green or black tea mixture. This helps feed your Scobys in their hotel. To make your tea, you can boil  {{convert|5-6|cup|L} of water and steep about 4 teabags. Then, pour in about  0.5 cups (0.12 L) of cane sugar. Use a tightly woven cloth, and place it on the top of your jar. Then, screw on your lid so it fits tightly over your jar. If you don’t have a cloth, you can use 2 coffee filters instead. You can place this next to other kombucha batches, if you'd like. Make sure your Scoby hotel will not be disturbed in whatever location you pick. Since you have multiple Scobys in your batch, it will ferment quicker than normal and will be much more potent. Because of this, replace your kombucha with a fresh batch after 2 weeks. To use up your kombucha, you can drink kombucha from the jar, pour some off, or discard it.
Summary:
Select a large, sterile glass container big enough to fit several Scobys. Put all of your Scobys into the jar. Pour in 1 cup (0.24 L) of kombucha and 3 cups (0.71 L) of freshly brewed tea. Cover your jar with a clean cloth and secure it with a lid. Store your jar in a dark, warm, and dry place. Replace the kombucha in your Scoby hotel every 2 weeks.
