Familiarize yourself with the uninflected form of verbs. Examples include: to cry, to run, to hide. Keep these two words together when using them. Do not place an adverb or adverbial phrase in between them. Memorize the prepositions: with, by, on, in, at, to, about. Understand that their function is to articulate the relationship between elements of a sentence. Follow the rule that prepositions are always placed before the noun or pronoun and never after it. Memorize the conjunctions: and, but, because, while, until, although, if. Understand that their function is to connect sentences, phrases and words. Follow the rule that you should never start a sentence with a conjunction. Write all of your sentences using the active voice. Consider who or what is doing the action expressed by the verb. Make that the subject of the sentence and place it before the object. ’ Determine the subject and object of a sentence. Use ‘whom’ only if you want to refer to the object of a sentence or clause. Use ‘who’ only if you want to refer to the subject of a sentence or clause.

summary: Make sure you don’t split infinitives. Take care not to end a sentence with a preposition. Make certain you don’t start a sentence with a conjunction. Ensure you don’t use the passive voice. Know when to use ‘whom.

Shampoo and condition your hair prior to cutting your locks. Squeeze the excess water from your tresses. Comb through your hair to remove all of the snags and snarls. Fill a spray bottle with warm water. As your hair dries, dampen your hair with the water from the spray bottle. You may also choose to forgo washing your hair and simply wet it with the spray bottle. Throughout the haircut, you will use 1 stationary guide to cut every segment of hair. This will produce shaggy layers at varying lengths throughout your hair. Section off a small segment of hair at the top of your head. Determine the length of your stationary guide (the shortest layer). Grasp the stationary guide between the middle and forefinger of your non-dominant hand. Slide the fingers towards the ends while pulling the segment straight up at a 180° angle. Stop your fingers when they have reached the desired length. Trim the excess hair with sharp shears. Instead of cutting off too much hair, start gradually. Trim off 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) of hair from your stationary guide and complete the entire haircut. If your hair is too long, take another 1 to 2 inches off from your stationary guide and re-cut your hair. Starting at the front of your head, insert a segment of hair surrounding the stationary guide and the stationary guide between your middle and forefinger. Slide your middle and forefinger towards the ends—pulling the hair at a 180° angle—until they reach the length of the stationary guide. Trim the excess hair. Repeat this process, working from front to back down the center of your head. To produce even layers, alternate between cutting segments on the left side and the right side. Insert a segment of hair and the stationary guide between your middle and forefinger. Slide your middle and forefinger towards the ends—pulling the hair at a 180° angle—until they reach the length of the stationary guide. Trim the excess hair. Repeat until all of your hair is cut.

summary: Prep your hair for the cut. Cut your stationary guide. Cut the surrounding hair. Trim the sides.

This will work if you have the type of gas stove with raised grates that sit over top of the burners. Take a grate off and set it on the counter, then set a pan on it so the bottom of the pan cools faster or transfer large baked goods directly to it. Set a hot pan or baking sheet down on the burner so the airflow will cool it down faster or transfer large baked items directly to the burner. Clean the burner thoroughly before you put any baked goods directly on it. Make sure none of the burners around it are on, or else the baked goods won’t cool down effectively. Pull an extra rack out of the oven, toaster oven, or roasting pan. Set it on the counter and set a hot baking sheet or pan on it to cool or transfer the baked goods directly to the baking rack to cool them even faster. If there isn’t enough clearance under the rack to allow a lot of air flow, you can set it on something that will lift it up higher and still allow air underneath all of it. For instance, a frying pan or a pot would work.
summary: Use a removable grate from a gas stovetop as a cooling rack. Place baked goods on top of a cool burner on an electric stove. Use a spare baking rack if you have one available.
