In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Epsom salt can also deter pests from eating your plants. Dissolve 1/2 cup of Epsom salt into 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water. Then spray your plants with this mixture to ward off bugs.Another pest guard is sprinkling a circle of Epsom salt around the base of your plants. This won’t keep flying bugs away, but could repel crawling bugs like slugs. If your lawn has dry, discolored patches, your soil may have a magnesium deficiency. Try raising its levels with Epsom salt. Load 3 pounds (1.4 kg) of salts for every 1,250 square feet (116 m2) of lawn into a spreader. Spread the salts over the lawn. Then water the grass with a sprinkler or hose.  If you have less than 1,250 square feet (116 m2) of lawn, then adjust the measurement.  Test your soil with a home testing kit. With a small soil sample, these tests show you which nutrients your lawn is deficient in.
Summary: Repel bugs with a water and Epsom salt mixture. Raise your lawn’s magnesium level by spreading Epsom salt before watering.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Spread the oil into the pan by turning it from side to side until the oil spreads evenly over it. Place 2 cloves of chopped garlic, 2 chopped shallots, 1 chopped zucchini, and 1 cup of chopped carrots in the pot and stir the ingredients a bit to combine the flavors. Place 1 tsp. of curry powder and 3 cups of chicken stock in the skillet and wait for the stock to boil. Cover the orzo and reduce the heat to medium. Cook the ingredients together and stir them occasionally to combine the flavors. For all dente, cook the ingredients for 10 minutes. If you'd like the orzo to be a bit softer, cook it for another 1 or 2 additional minutes. Then, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan, 3 tbsp. of chopped flat-leaf parsley, and 1 cup of peas. Season this dish with salt and pepper to taste and serve it immediately.
Summary: Heat 2 tbsp. of extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Sauté the garlic, shallots, zucchini, and carrots in the skillet for 5 minutes. Add the curry and chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Add 1 cup of uncooked orzo and cook the ingredients for 10 minutes. Uncover the dish and stir in the cheese, parsley, and peas. Serve.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Most oil rig crews, both onshore and offshore, work grueling 12-hour shifts. Rotations vary, but most companies keep crews on site for two weeks and then give workers two weeks off. Entry-level oil rig jobs are physically taxing. Most involve moving supplies and heavy equipment, like drill pipes. This kind of work requires a level of strength and endurance that other jobs might not. Oil rigs are often located in places with extreme weather conditions. Offshore and onshore rigs offer distinct challenges.   Onshore rigs. Most oilfields in the United States are in the unforgiving climate of the Southwest, where summertime temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees F (37.7 C). Drilling in the petroleum-rich fields of Canada reaches full capacity during the bitterly cold winter months, when the frozen ground is better able to withstand heavy equipment and exploration procedures.  Offshore rigs. Workers on offshore oil rigs are at the mercy of the elements, too. North Sea platforms are battered year-round by strong winds and unyielding waves. Rigs dotting the U.S. coastline in the Gulf of Mexico are on alert during the hurricane season (June 1 to November 30). The contents of an oil well are under extreme pressure, but that's only part of the danger rig workers face daily. Cranes are constantly moving massive sections of pipe across the platform. Highly combustible gases are used in everyday operations that include welding and pipe-cutting. All of these aspects of oil rigs constitute a fairly constant level of danger that requires workers to be on guard and prepared to handle emergency situations.
Summary:
Decide if you are capable of working long shifts. Prepare for the physical labor aspects of the job. Research the weather conditions at your possible oil rig job. Decide if you can manage the aspects of physical danger.
