Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wash the chilies. Freeze small peppers whole. Freeze large peppers in strips.

Answer: Discard any damaged chilies, since they won't keep well in the freezer. If you have small peppers that you'd like to freeze whole, you can simply put them in a freezer bag. Use a straw to suck out the excess air, then seal and label the bag before placing it in the freezer.  Pack the bag as tightly as possible, so there's little extra air in the bag. Air will make the peppers spoil faster. Freeze for several months. When you want to use the peppers, simply leave them out to thaw or  blanch them in boiling water for a few seconds. Bigger peppers can be sliced into strips or chunks you can easily use in a recipe later on. Slice them lengthwise or into chunks and remove the seeds.  Lay the pieces on a baking sheet and freeze them for an hour. This is called flash freezing. Put the pieces in a storage bag and remove the extra air. Store in the freezer for up to several months.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create a flat platform on the core (if necessary). Use direct percussion to create flakes (if necessary). Trim the flake shape. Abrade the edge of the flake.

Answer: If your core is round or has an irregular surface, you'll need to strike it with a hammerstone to create a relatively flat "platform" to start with. The stone will fracture at roughly a 50º angle from the direction of impact, so for a round rock you'll want to tilt the core to about 40º and strike straight downward. The platform must be next to a side that narrows inward. You won't be able to use any side that bulges outward from the platform, or goes straight down at a 90º angle. If you are using a core, once you have a flat platform, use your hammerstone or billet to strike off flakes, or thin, relatively flat pieces you can turn into tools. Always remember that the stone fractures at a 50º from the point of impact. To use this to your advantage, tilt the core so the platform is at a 40º angle from the vertical. Strike the lower end of the platform with the tool, hitting it with a glancing blow that carries on past the point. You may need to repeat this several times around the platform, until you get a piece that is mostly flat, and a fair amount larger than the tool you want to make.  If the material splits into three pieces, or the platform crumbles around the blow, the angle is probably too small (the blow is too direct). If you're only getting tiny chips, the angle is probably too large (the blow is too glancing). Unless you were lucky enough to get a perfect triangular or rectangular flake, you'll probably need to break it further. Do this using the same direct percussion technique, until you have a piece a bit larger than what you want to end up with, and with no concave "bites" taken out of the edge. Abrading is one of the most important processes in flint knapping. A newly struck flake typically has thin, fragile areas around the edge, which need to be ground down to a dull, thicker edge so it can withstand the impact of the tool. To accomplish this, grind the edge of your flake in a sawing motion against another flattish sort of stone of slightly lesser hardness. Old grinding wheels work well for this, or any smooth hunk of limestone. If grooves appear in the tool you are grinding with, this is a good sign, since it means the tool is softer than the flake. Once the fragile edges have chipped off or been ground down, you'll have a dependable platform able to take the extreme rigors of lithic engineering.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Dress appropriately for the weather. Use multiple bags to sort litter for recycling. Avoid and report hazardous materials.

Answer: Since you’re going to be outside for a good percentage of the day, pay attention to the weather forecast. If the sun is out and you live in a warm climate, make sure to wear sunglasses and a hat to protect your face and neck from sun damage.  Always wear close-toed shoes to protect your feet no matter what the weather. Wear bug repellant to avoid mosquito bites while you’re picking up litter. When cleaning up trash, it is important to recycle in order to reduce the amount of waste in our environment. Many items are recyclable but should be placed in separate recycling bins. You can use 4 trash bags as you clean to separate litter into the following categories: metals, paper, plastic, and bottles.  Metals include things like soda cans, soup cans, foil, and bakeware. Paper products should include cardboard, magazines, newspapers, and juice cartons. Plastic should only be recycled if it is clean. If you find plastic bottles with liquid inside, even if it’s just a small amount, throw it away in a garbage bin. Plastic bags also should not be placed in recycling bins. Certain waste products should be avoided when you’re picking up litter, as they may be harmful. If you see any of the following items, do not pick them up. Instead, report them to the local council or landowner:  Needles Human waste Personal hygiene products (condoms, tampons, etc.) Electrical items Dead animals Bottles of liquid Unlabeled bottles Potentially dangerous chemicals


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use this method if you have removed your garbage disposal and want to replace it with a newly purchased garbage disposal. Place a rubber seal on the underside of the drain flange. Prepare the new disposal. Connect the electrical wires. Attach the pipes. Connect the dishwasher drain line. Turn on the sink to let water through.

Answer:
If you are installing a garbage disposal of the same brand then you could keep the mounting bracket on the sink drain rather than removing it. The rubber seal will usually come with your new disposal. You can simply wrap it around the flange and then put the drain flange in the drain hole. You will need to use putty if your disposal does not include a rubber seal. Turn the disposal upside down and shake it to remove anything inside. Remove the electrical plate and pull the wires away from the disposal. Screw the strain relief sleeve into place and feed the electrical wires through it into the disposal. If you are connecting the disposal to a dishwasher, then you must remove the knock out plug using a hammer and screwdriver. On many disposals you will connect the ground wire to the green screw on the disposal, and then splice the white wires to white wires and black to black. Secure the connections with wire nuts and tighten the strain relief sleeve. Replace the cover plate on the disposal. You will attach a 90-degree disposal drainpipe to the disposal and the tailpiece to the other sink drain. There should be p-traps on both the disposal and the tailpiece from the other sink and they should be level to one another. Use straight pipes and a T-fitting to connect both drains into one line and route the drainpipes into the main drain.  Dry fit the pieces together at first. Connect the pipes using PVC glue on both the outside of the pipe and inside of the fitting. PVC glue will melt the material a little to give a strong weld. If you are running the drain from a dishwasher through the disposal then you must connect the pipe to the disposal at the spot where you knocked out a plug previously. Turn on the sink and let water run through the pipes for several minutes to make sure nothing is leaking. This can prevent many problems in the future with leaks so make sure you test your pipes.
