Medium heat will help the ingredients cook properly without scorching them.  Sautee the garlic until it turns golden. Remove the garlic with a slotted spoon and discard. Crush the garlic with a garlic press, small mallet, or press down on the garlic clove with the flat side of a knife. Toss the parsley gently to coat with oil. The parsley adds color and a subtle, fresh flavor to the sauce. The lower heat will keep the parsley from burning.

Summary: Place a 10-inch (25.4cm) skillet on the stove and set the burner to medium heat. Add a small amount of extra virgin olive oil to the skillet. Add a crushed clove of garlic when the oil is hot. Add approximately 2 handfuls of fresh flat parsley to the hot oil and garlic mixture. Lower the heat on the stove to simmer or to a low setting.


When your choice is either outdoors or inside a car, your car is always the safest option. If caught in a thunderstorm, remain inside your car until the storm passes. Close your windows, and put the top up in your convertible.  Open vehicles, like golf carts, ATVs, and riding mowers, are not safe during lightning storms. Seek shelter indoors. Convertibles are less safe than other cars in thunderstorms. If possible, avoid driving them when it's raining. Starting your car is generally safe during a thunderstorm, but do not under any circumstances jump your car until the storm has passed. Most cars are safe from lightning, but the metal exterior or any metal objects are not safe to touch. If lightning strikes your car, the current will flow from the car's outer metal cage and into the ground below. Keep your hands in your lap and avoid leaning on the car doors or touching any exposed metal. Rubber tires will not protect your car from getting struck. Some portions of the current can travel through the wired areas in your car. Don't touch any of the vehicle's electrical systems during the car, including your radio, GPS system, or cell phone charger. In some cases, lightning strikes can damage your car's electric systems. Avoid driving your car during thunderstorms if you have expensive radio or GPS systems installed. If driving in an outage area, pull over and turn on your hazard lights. Areas with outages are dangerous to drive in, especially if the traffic lights have shorted out. If you must  continue traveling, treat intersections with shorted traffic signals as a four-way stop and take extra caution.

Summary: Run to your vehicle for safety. Place your hands in your lap. Don't handle the radio or your GPS system. Pull to the side of the road in heavy storms.


These mark the boundary between warmer air on one side and colder air on the other. If you are close to a front and you know the front is moving towards you, you can expect a change in weather (e.g. cloud formation, precipitation, thunderstorms, and wind) when the front boundary passes over you. Mountains and large bodies of water can distort its path. On a weather map, you will notice some lines that have semi-circles or triangles on either side, or both. These indicate the boundaries for various types of fronts. With these weather patterns, rainfall can be torrential and wind speeds can be high. Blue lines with triangles on one side represents cold fronts on weather maps. The direction the triangles point is the direction in which the cold front is moving. These often bring a gradual increase in rainfall as the front approaches, followed by prompt clearing and warming after the front passes. If the warm air mass is unstable, the weather might be characterized by prolonged thunderstorms. A red line with semi-circles on one side represents warm fronts. The side the semi-circles are on represent the direction in which the warm front is heading. These are formed when a cold front overtakes a warm front. They are associated with various weather events (possibly thunderstorms) depending on whether it is a warm or cold occlusion. The passing of an occluded front usually brings drier air (lowered dew point). A purple line with semi-circles and triangles both on the same side represents occluded fronts. Whichever side they're on is the direction the occluded front is going. These indicate a non-moving boundary between two different air masses. These fronts have long continuous rainy periods that linger for extended periods in one area and move in waves. A semi-circle bordering one side and triangles along the opposite side represents that the front is not moving in any direction.
Summary: Observe the types and movement of fronts. Analyze a Cold front. Analyze a Warm front. Study an Occluded front. Analyze a Stationary front.
