Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Process the wood. Seal the ends of the lumber. Determine its cure time.

Answer: Logs should be processed into lumber as soon as possible to prevent the ends from drying and the wood from rotting. While the ideal thickness for lumber is 1 inch (2.5 cm), you may saw your logs into lumber that is between ¾ inch to 2 inches (5.1 cm) in thickness. If you are processing the wood yourself, make an effort to achieve uniform length and thickness. If you are unable to saw your own logs, find a sawmill to do the job for you. You may wish to cut your wood slightly oversized to account for shrinkage. The ends of lumber cure faster than the rest of the wood. To ensure that your wood cures evenly, it is best to seal the ends immediately after sawing the logs into lumber. You may coat each end of the wood in a commercial end sealer, paraffin wax, polyurethane shellac, or latex paint. Build up a thick layer of the sealer of your choice to prevent moisture from escaping out of the ends. When air-drying your wood, the curing time is determined by a simple formula. Allow 1 year of drying time per 1 inch (2.5 cm) of thickness. This formula only provides a rough estimate. It does not account for all variables, such as the weather and the location of the woodpile. For example, if a piece of wood is 1 inch thick, it would take 1 year to properly cure the lumber.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare and update your curriculum vitae or resume. Put some of the code you have written online. Research tech companies. Spend time on technical tests. Go to any interviews prepared.

Answer: Include any experience, even voluntary, that you have designing and programming for websites or apps.   It is important that you are honest when developing your CV. Don't include false experience or exaggerate. Steer clear of industry jargon and buzzwords. Present clearly what your experience is with out using words such as "synergy" or "creative". Include testimonials of your work and links to code or websites you have developed. Have a friend or colleague review your CV before you apply to jobs. Put your CV online after it has been completed or updated. Try using sites like LinkedIn or Career 2.0. Ask any industry connections you have to look at your CV to see if they know of any opportunities. An online presence for a web developer is vital to a successful career.   Put out a side project onto collaborative sites like GitHub. Contribute to open sourced projects on GitHub and similar websites. A prospective employer who sees that a candidate works with others on a web project in their spare time will be an attractive potential employee. Put your highest quality code on your online profiles. Once you have written some code or contributed to a project, you can put this on your CV. You could also start a blog about projects you are working on or trends in web development. Put a link to this on you CV. Potential employers will often look to see if a candidate is keeping up to date on trends and projects in the field. Especially if you are contacted by a recruiter or have applied to a specific job, it is important to know the ins and outs of a company.  Know how long a company has been in operation. Make sure you understand the goals and mission of the company. Become familiar with the companies products or services. A potential employer won't want to interview someone who clearly does not know what his company does or how they operate. Many companies will want you to take a technical competency test before or after an interview.  Take this seriously, even if the task seems trivial. Companies will want to see if you can code in a particular language or develop a specific type of website. Put as much effort into the exam as you can. You will want to make sure you don't have any errors in your code and that it compiles correctly. Use an online test to deploy your code for the test. This will show a potential employer that you know how to deploy code you have written. Do some of your own research about the company climate.  You should try to deduce what the company dress code is, the hours required, and if you will need to travel. Arrive 15 minutes early for an interview. This will show you are punctual and have time management skills. Prepare several questions of your own to ask an interviewer. You should ask questions about the work environment, company culture, what types of projects you will be expected to work on etc. Going to an interview with questions about the job is a good indicator to an employer that you have thought carefully about the interview and the job. Avoid common interview pitfalls. Don't ask about salary or badmouth past employers and colleagues. Don't exaggerate your experience when asked about projects you have worked on.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Install fencing to keep the rabbits out. Use repellents to keep the rabbits away. Spray fungicides that contain the chemical Thiram.

Answer:
A humane and effective way of keeping rabbits out of your yard or garden is by setting up fences around the problem areas. Dig 10 to 12 feet (3.0 to 3.7 m) underground where you want to install a wire fence. Lay chicken wire in the hole and create a fence that is tall enough to keep the rabbits from jumping over it.  Hire a professional to install the fence for you if you do not have the resources or experience to install a fence on your own. Chicken wire will keep the rabbits from digging or burrowing under the fence. This option is expensive and temporary, but it can be effective if you are consistent. Buy a rabbit repellent from your local sporting good store and spray it on your plants or in your yard. The repellent will have to be reapplied, as the smell will fade and the rabbits will return after some time. The most effective repellents smell like fox-urine, or like the urine of other predators. These fungicides are extremely toxic and should not be applied to plants you plan to eat or any areas where children may be playing. Fungicides are extremely effective in deterring rabbits, and are a good option for areas with ornamental plants or parts of your garden that will not be eaten by humans.
