INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This will most likely be the most physically challenging part of making brick from concrete. Using a commercially prepared dry mix of concrete materials is the easiest method. It is often referred to as Sak-crete and normally comes in 40-to-80-pound (18.1-to-36.2 kg) bags, which are then mixed in a wheelbarrow. Make a small hole in the middle of the dry mix using a shovel or a common garden hoe.  Begin adding small amounts of water in that small hole, preferably from a bucket rather than a hose for better control of the amount of water that is added at any one time. Mix the dry material and water together with the hoe or shovel, adding water until you have a concrete consistency that is workable. Use a measuring device for the water to ensure each batch has the same consistency. Too wet and it will want to push up the side and run under the forms. Too dry and it will not want to consolidate, but rather it will leave air voids in your concrete brick. If desired, you can or rent a small cement mixer from a hardware or home improvement store. Tap on the side of the forms with the brick forms filled. Tapping on the top afterward will force any trapped air out from inside of the concrete. Use a straight edge or 12-inch (30.5 cm) trowel to smooth off the top of the concrete level with the top of the forms. Allow it to dry for 24 hours. If using the brick to face an existing wall, use a scoring trowel to make groves in the brick. This will aid in mortaring the brick in place. Stack the bricks in a cool area to cure a suggested 2 weeks. Cover them up with a mover's blanket while they are curing and keep the blanket wet and covered with plastic sheeting. This will keep the bricks from cracking during the curing process. Once they have cured, you are ready to use them.

SUMMARY: Make the concrete and pour it into the assembled molds. Put a bag of prepared concrete material in a wheelbarrow. Use a shovel to put the concrete into the forms. Strip the forms from the concrete bricks on the next day. Finished.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Shark meat tends to spoil quickly and can be ruined if it isn’t handled properly. Choose shark meat with moist, translucent flesh. Make sure it isn’t flaky. Buy shark from reputable supermarkets and fishmongers to ensure you get the best quality. Set the shark meat in a refrigerator-safe dish and submerge it in milk. Allowing it to soak eliminates the smell of ammonia and gamey flavor that a lot of fresh catches have. If you buy the shark from a quality source, it may have already been treated. If you don’t smell any ammonia, you may not need to soak the meat, although you can still do so to make sure the meat is at its best.  Fresh-caught shark needs to be soaked right after it is cleaned, or else the meat can become inedible. It doesn’t really matter what type of milk you use. Most people use any type of cow’s milk or buttermilk, but alternatives like soy milk or even lemon juice do well in a pinch. Plain milk is less acidic than buttermilk and lemon juice, so it can be a good option if you aren't making a ceviche. The dark meat comes from the areas around the shark’s skin. It includes blood lines and has a strong, unpleasant taste. Most recipes don’t call for shark skin, so you can remove it as well. If you’re buying shark from a store, chances are someone took care of this ahead of time, so you don’t need to worry about it. You can remove the skin after you cook the meat. Leaving the skin on may help the meat retain more moisture. Slice the shark horizontally with a sharp knife to divide it up into smaller pieces. Avoid cutting the shark too thick or too thin. Shark meat is lean, so it can easily dry out when you cook it.  Marinating the shark after you slice it can help prevent it from drying out. Although steaks are a common way to cook and eat shark, you can also chop the steaks up into smaller pieces, such as when making kebabs or a ceviche.

SUMMARY: Get the highest quality shark meat available. Soak the meat in milk for 4 hours. Trim off the dark meat and skin with a paring knife. Cut the shark into steaks between 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) thick.

SUMMARY: Watch Happy Wheels gameplay on YouTube.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Time allocation should conjure up images of Goldilocks. It has to be just right. Too long and you waste the audience's time. Too short and the audience is disoriented. In general your introduction should be under 30 seconds.  This is not a time to rattle off your entire resume.  Or regale people about your weekend escapades. Always remember your audience is made of busy people. They took time out of their day to come watch you talk. Respect that time by not wasting it. Decide ahead of time and state in your introduction if you will allow interruptions during your talk, or if you would rather questions be held for the end of your seminar. Either way, make sure you budget your time so that there is time for questions. Budget about 10% of your allotted seminar time for questions.  This means that for an hour time slot, you should budget 10 minutes for questions and 45-50 minutes for the seminar. For a 15 minute time slot this means that you should budget 1-2 minutes for questions and 13 minutes for your talk. Now before you can formulate the rest of your self-introduction you must identify the goal of your seminar. There are three main categories of seminars, 1) The Job Seminar 2) The Teaching Seminar 3) The Persuasive Seminar. Each of these seminars has very different goals. Identify which category your seminar fits in best:   The Job Seminar. Your seminar is a job talk. Where the goal is to look impressive, qualified and professional.  Teaching Seminar. Your seminar is primarily for educational purposes. Where the goals are to inspire, inform and educate your audience.  The Persuasive Seminar. Your seminar is a "call to action" or "sales pitch." Where your goals are to persuade, motivate and befriend. Your seminar may fall into more than one category but there should be one that fits best. Identify it and the goals. We will discuss how to use these goals to choose material for your self-introduction below.

SUMMARY:
Pick the correct length of time. Decide how you want to handle questions. Identify the goal of your seminar.
