In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Toward the end of fall, take your car to the shop to get a routine check up and make sure everything is in working order. The last thing you need in icy conditions is for your car to break down while snow piles up on the windshield. When you take your car to get winterized, have the mechanic check the following, and replace anything that isn't working properly:  Tires and tire pressure Battery Belts and hoses Radiator Brakes Exhaust system Heater Oil Lights Ignition system Wipers If your area is ice all the time,install spiked tyres. They will puncture the ice,which will boost your friction greatly. Even if your mechanic thinks you have some life left in your tires, if you're heading into an icy winter, you might want to think about getting new ones. The biggest hazard in winter driving is sliding on ice due to poor traction. It's a safety risk no matter what the state of your tires is, but if your tread depth is getting low you're at greater risk of wiping out.  The tire-industry standard for good snow and ice traction is a 6/32-inch tread. Make sure the tires you pick out will do an adequate job in the conditions you'll be facing. Tires designed for high performance in summer don't do well on icy roads.  If your facing a long, harsh winter, you might want to invest in winter tires. They're designed with a deeper tread that works well in icy and snowy conditions. In cold weather, tire pressure naturally drops. Tires that aren't fully inflated can have a slower reaction time when you're trying to steer, which could be dangerous when there's ice on the road. Check your tire pressure every few weeks to make sure they're fully inflated.  To  check your tire pressure, use a gauge to determine the tire's pounds per square inch (PSI) of pressure. See whether it's lower than the recommended pressure for your tires. If you need to adjust the pressure, find a source of air (gas stations have them, as do body shops) and fill the tires one by one, checking the pressure frequently to make sure you don't overfill them. Snow chains and other devices designed to give the tires more traction on ice are good to have in the trunk in case a blizzard blows in. The chains aren't difficult to fasten around the tires, and you take them off as soon as the roads are dry again. Talk with your mechanic about which type of device is best for your vehicle.  If you live in a region with steep hills and lots of ice, or in a place where salt trucks don't routinely come by to treat the streets, get top-of-the line snow chains that are easy to take on and off when visibility is low. If you're traveling through notoriously icy terrain, you might see signs specifying that snow chains are mandatory. If you're on a trip and you didn't buy snow chains beforehand, you can pick them up at most stores that sell auto parts. The most important thing about driving in harsh icy and winter conditions is to always be prepared. In the winter months, this means you should have jumper cables and an emergency driving kit stored in your vehicle's trunk. Just in case you get stranded for several hours, it's a good idea to have a supply of food, water and blankets as well.  Always bring along a cell phone when you go out in icy driving conditions. Fender benders and more serious accidents are extremely common when there's ice around, and you want to be able to call for help right away. You might want to look into getting a AAA membership or having a local tower's number handy as well.
Summary: Get a basic maintenance check up. Get new tires if your treads are wearing out. Check your tire pressure throughout the winter. Consider investing in snow chains. Be prepared in case your car breaks down.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Get the female a lay box, for example, a Rubbermaid box with damp moss. She will lay eggs and coil around them. Remove the female from the eggs, gently, and place them in incubation substrate inside a container (Rubbermaid box with a lid). Set the incubator to 90 °F (32 °C), 32 C. Check the eggs once a week to make sure they good.  At this time when you lift the lid to check eggs, they will get air so you don't have to put air holes in the incubation container. If the female does not eat, try washing her to remove the scent of the eggs.  It is important she starts to eat again since laying takes a lot out of her.
Summary: Prepare the lay box. Remove the eggs. Ensure temperature is good. Feed the female. Eggs should hatch in about 55 days after laying.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can train in your home in the kitchen or living room. A backyard or a quiet outdoor space where there are no distractions also works. Your puppy can be on or off his leash to start. Dogs have short attention spans. For this reason, it is best to plan more frequent, shorter training sessions. Plan five minute training sessions with three to five "name calls" during different times of the day. Practice over the course of a few days. Use your puppy's name one time per exercise (e.g. Come, Molly!). If you repeat the name continually before the dog comes, he will tune the name out. Use the puppy's name with positive commands.  Consider running away from your puppy while you call his name. Dogs love to chase things and might be more likely to follow you.  Use the Name Game to practice name recognition. In the training area, keep him on a ten-foot leash. Give him five feet to wander. When he is not looking, call the puppy with an excited voice. Make sure he comes to you. If he does not come, pull him gently towards you. When he gets to you, praise him and give him a treat. Repeat the exercise until your puppy consistently returns to you when you call his name.  Do not use the puppy's name in conjunction with negative commands or words (no and stay). Do not scold the puppy if he takes a while to come to you.  Avoid nicknames that might confuse your dog, like "Come!" and "Stop!" These might sound funny, but they'll only lead to distress. Say, "yes!" when he comes. Give him verbal praise and/or a treat. Overall, act very excited and pleased about his behavior. You also could give your dog a belly rub. You can alternate what rewards you give the puppy. The goal is to associate puppy's obedience with a positive response from you.
Summary:
Find a place to begin training. Plan training sessions. Call your puppy's name in a happy, clear voice. Reward your puppy if he responds to his name.
