Q: Make sure to wear gloves, mask and eye protection. You should also wear an apron and rubber boots to protect yourself. Muriatic acid is caustic and can cause burns. You should maximize ventilation by placing a running fan in the bathroom window to exhaust air. If you have a bathroom exhaust fan, turn that on too. to the toilet and flush. Use a sponge to remove the water left in bowl. This will ensure the acid will clean the bowl to the bottom, including the critical jet-hole. This is a smaller hole at the bottom of the toilet bowl; water is pushed out of it forcefully to help the toilet flush. You’ll see it in action at the end of a flush, and buildup here may be responsible for a slow flush. If there is a fill tube on top of the overflow tube, carefully take that off first. The funnel’s opening should be as large as possible, to facilitate pouring, but fit snugly in the overflow tube.  Make sure not to use a metal funnel; the acid will corrode it. Rinse the funnel well after use and do not reuse it for food. You should only pour a few ounces of diluted acid into the tube. You should pour fast enough that it begins to flow out of the holes in the toilet bowl rim but not so fast that the funnel overflows or falls out, as this would splash acid and be extremely dangerous. Pour the rest of the gallon into the toilet bowl; this will help clear the drain. The tighter the seal the better. Just cover the bowl portion, do not include the seat. This will keep the acid’s fumes from filling the bathroom. Alternatively you can use a clear trash bag to cover the toilet bowl. If there are children or pets in your home, make sure the door to the bathroom is closed and locked. The acid will dislodge mineral deposits in the toilet bowl and the drain over time. You’ll have to make sure to turn on the water first. Extra flushes are advisable in older homes with iron drain pipes, as prolonged contact with concentrated acid will damage them. You can find these holes under the toilet rim. They propel water to fill the bowl whenever you flush. Make sure that water flows freely from these holes whenever you flush. You can also use a coat hanger to check the holes for obstructions and other build ups.  If you see any build up under the rim, use a baby bottle brush to scrub it off. Repeat the procedure if necessary.
A: Take the necessary safety precautions. Turn off the water Take off the tank cover and insert a plastic funnel into the overflow tube. Carefully pour diluted muriatic acid through the funnel. Tape a clear piece of poly-film over the toilet bowl and tank opening. Let the acid sit in the toilet for 24 hours. Remove the poly-film and flush a few times. Check the rim holes for proper flow.

Q: When writing your works cited page, use a line break between each reference but don’t double-space the references. Alphabetize your references by last name on the reference page. Also, leave two lines after the title of the section (either “Bibliography” or “References”). You will basically be using the same information for the reference page, minus the page number. However, the punctuation is a little different, and you begin with the last name of the author. For example: “Victoire, Georgina. Robin’s Eggs. Atlanta, Georgia: Peaches and Cream Publishing, 1982.” As you can see, on the reference page, you use a period after the author, the title, and the date, and you remove the parenthesis. You don’t use the page number here because you are not citing a specific piece of information; you are referencing the book as a whole. You will use a similar style as a book with a journal article, beginning with the author’s name. However, instead of a book title, you follow the author’s name with the journal article title in quotation marks with a comma inside the quotation marks. Next, provide the journal’s title,  volume number, a comma, and “no.” plus the issue number. Provide the year of publication in parenthesis, followed by a colon and the page numbers the article appears on in the journal. End with a period. For example: “Hodges, Livia. ‘The Joy of Plants,’ Biology for Geeks 25, no. 3 (2001): 24-68.” Use the DOI, or digital object finder, if you can find it. The DOI number is a digital reference number for journal articles, much as an ISBN works for books. Adding the date that you access the article is optional. For example: “Hodges, Livia. ‘The Joy of Plants,’ Biology for Geeks 25, no. 3 (2001): 24-68. Accessed July 14, 2008. www.biology4geeks.com.”
A: Keep the spacing in mind when creating your reference sheet. Keep in mind that the punctuation is slightly different between a footnote and an entry in your reference sheet. Cite a journal article on your reference sheet. Include the URL or DOI if you access the article online.

Q: If you have been friends, you’ll recognize that the rules and expectations that govern how you communicate with her should be different. If you want to change her mind and get her to view you romantically, do not continue to act like friends. Never, under any circumstances, do this in a threatening way or in a way that would make her feel uncomfortable. However, little nudges or letting your knees touch when you’re sitting next to each other could help plant the seed that you like her romantically. Is a romantic relationship what you actually want? Then tell her that. Understand that this might risk losing her friendship. Do not be friends with a girl in hopes that you can change her mind about you. This is unfair to her as friendships should be based on trust and respect. Be honest with her. Tell her that you want to be more than friends. If she says she just wants to stay friends, ask yourself if you are able to do that or if it's best just to move on.  For example, say something like "I really have a lot of fun with you and always look forward to seeing you. I was wondering if you felt anything more than friendship between us because I definitely do." Your emotions may be too raw after you have been rejected to maintain a friendship. A friendship is based on mutual support and respect. Ask yourself if you can truly give that to her after you have clearly expressed that you see her as more than a friend. Don’t try to force the friendship. Give yourself time to recover.
A: Understand that friendship and dating are different. Start touching her more. Be honest about your feelings. Communicate respectfully and openly that you’d like your friendship to become romantic.

Q: The outer yellow lines are solid, while the inner yellow lines are dashed. The sign will have two curved arrows indicating left turns. Dedicated turn lanes occur at intersections and may only be used by one direction of traffic. Center turn lanes run down the entire road and may be used by both directions of traffic.
A:
Look for a center lane bordered by two sets of yellow lines. Look for a “Center Lane Only” sign. Don’t confuse a dedicated turn lane for a center turn lane.
