Article: Find the rod attached to a ball that floats on the top of the water and controls the intake of water from the pipes into the tank. This is the floating arm. If you lift up on the arm and the water stops, then your problem is that the water in the tank isn't coming up high enough to turn off and the pipes are getting the message that more water needs to come in, so the toilet runs constantly, or often. A running toilet can cost a fortune in wasted water. While it may seem like a minor inconvenience, a running toilet is a serious and usually easily fixable problem. Sometimes, the floating arm will be bent so the ball will rub or catch on the side of the tank or the tank ball arm. Flush the toilet and see if the arm catches on anything. If it does, just bend the arm gently so it floats freely and can rise to the level it needs to. Sometimes, water will get trapped in the ball, weighing it down and keeping the water from rising as it should. If this happens, dump the water out and replace the ball by screwing it back on. If the ball is cracked or otherwise damaged and allows water in freely, replace it with a new one. If lifting up on the arm doesn't halt the running water and adjusting the floating arm doesn't seem to help, the problem is probably with the flapper assembly, which creates the seal at the bottom of the tank leading to the bowl and connects to the toilet handle by a rod.  Shut off the water and flush the toilet to empty the tank of water. Examine the flapper for signs of wear or corrosion. If you find build-up from the water or other gunk, scour it off with a kitchen pad or a pocketknife and see if you can get the flapper to create a good seal. Also check the opening for the same corrosion issues and clean it. If water still gets through the opening, examine the wire rod that connects to the toilet handle and make sure it's aligned and allowing the flapper to fall freely and plug the hole. Like the floating rod, you should be able to bend it back into place relatively gently, or replace it with a new one. Some are connected with a chain that can become tangled or loose and may need replaced as well. If none of this seems to stop the toilet from running, you'll probably need to replace the ballcock assembly.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Remove the top of the tank and lift up the floating arm. Check the floating arm for misalignment. If it doesn't seem to be caught on anything, unscrew the ball from the arm by twisting it counter-clockwise. Check the flapper seal.

Problem: Article: Add the butter to a large saucepan and set it over medium-low heat. Allow the butter to completely melt.  Cutting the butter into smaller chunks can help it melt faster. Occasionally turn the saucepan as the butter melts. Doing so should spread the butter over the bottom of the pan more evenly. Add the chopped onion to the melted butter. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 12 to 15 minutes or until the onions are lightly browned.  If you're in a hurry, you can increase the heat to medium and shorten the cook time to about 5 to 8 minutes. You should not increase the heat beyond that, however, since doing so may burn the onions. Adding onions to the gravy base will add more flavor, which is especially important when you aren't working with pan drippings. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and butter. Quickly and completely whisk it into the contents of the pan. After the flour has absorbed the remaining butter, continue cooking for another 1 to 2 minutes so that the heat can remove the raw flour taste. Gradually pour the broth into the saucepan, whisking continuously to combine. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, or until the gravy bubbles and thickens.  If you haven't done so already, increase the heat to medium. Note that you can use any broth for this recipe. You can even combine broths to create a more complex flavor. For instance, using two parts beef broth and one part chicken broth can create an appetizing brown gravy suitable for potatoes and other side dishes. If you want to further deepen the flavor profile of the gravy, add the brandy. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2 or 3 minutes. The heat should break down the alcohol while you cook it, leaving only the flavor behind. Remove the gravy from the heat and pour in the cream or milk. Whisk well to combine.  It's best to use room temperature or slightly warmed dairy to prevent it from curdling once it touches the hot gravy. Continue whisking until the gravy takes on an even coloration. Sprinkle the gravy with ground black pepper, to taste, then stir to combine. Since most broths are already quite salty, you probably won't need to add any salt, but you may still do so if you prefer gravies with stronger, saltier tastes. You can serve the gravy as it is, but if you don't want chunks of onion in it, strain out the onions by pouring the gravy through a strainer. Choose a strainer with medium holes. Fine mesh strainers will also work, but you may need to force the thick liquid gravy through these tiny holes using a spatula. Enjoy the gravy while it's still hot.  If you need to keep it warm, set the saucepan back on the stove over very low heat and whisk it occasionally until you're ready to use it. You can refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container, but you'll need to heat them on the stove again prior to use.
Summary: Melt the butter. Cook the onion. Whisk in the flour. Pour in the broth. Whisk in the brandy, if desired. Add the cream. Season the gravy. Strain, if necessary. Serve.

Once most of the stain is gone, apply a laundry pre-treatment stain remover to the garment. Massage the product deep into the stain, then rinse the stain with cold water. This will remove any final residue. Most garments can be washed in warm or cool water. If your garment no longer has the care tag, use cool water and a gentle cycle. If you do not have time to do the laundry, wash the affected area with cool water and soap. Rinse the area, then pat it dry with a towel. If the stain is very light, another run through the washer may be all that is needed. If the stain is still visible, you may need to repeat the acetone treatment. Do not put the garment into the dryer if the stain is still there. You can air-dry the garment, however. The safest option is to allow the garment to air dry, but you can use a dryer if you are absolutely certain that the stain is gone. If you notice any residue after washing the garment, do not put it in the dryer, otherwise you'll set the stain. If there is any residue, put it through the washer again. You can also repeat the acetone treatment, or take it to the dry cleaner.
