Q: Place the cut eggplant on a baking sheet lined with paper towels and use a liberal amount of salt on the open side of the eggplant slices. Salting helps draw out the extra water, so the baked eggplant will turn out less watery and mushy. It also prevents the eggplant from soaking up too much oil. You can skip this step if you're in a hurry, but it's worth doing if you want the texture of your eggplant to turn out perfectly. As the salt sits on the eggplant slices, you will see droplets of water begin to bead and drip from the fruit. If you don't see this occurring, sprinkle more salt on the eggplant. Carefully squeeze the water into a bowl or the sink, then pat the eggplant slices with paper towels to absorb the excess moisture. Be careful not to squeeze too hard and crush the eggplant.
A: Sprinkle the sliced eggplant with kosher salt. Wait thirty minutes. Squeeze the saltwater from the eggplant slices.

Article: If it starts raining and you see someone stuck beneath the eaves of a shop because they were not expecting the storm, duck inside a convenience store and purchase an umbrella for them, if possible (and one for you, if necessary).  Give them the umbrella so they can go on their way. When your birthday or holidays draw near, your friends and family might start asking you what you want.  Ask them to make a charitable contribution to an organization of their choice (or of your choice) instead of getting you a gift. There are many ways to become a mentor.  For instance, if you’re a strong reader and writer, you could help out a young person who you know needs help writing an essay for school.  If you know a teen neighbor needs help finding a job but their parents are too busy, you could teach them how to browse classifieds, develop a resume, and dress properly for an interview. If you have a valuable skill set, you could put your abilities to work as a volunteer with an organization.  For instance, if you’re a lawyer, you might offer to help out at a nonprofit that needs help with a legal matter.  If you’re an electrician, you might be able to help fix electrical problems at your local homeless shelter or soup kitchen. If you see someone waiting at the bus stop or trying in vain to hail a taxi, pull over and offer them a ride to their destination.  The stranger is even more likely to appreciate and accept your offer if the weather is poor. Contact local music venues and ask if they would be willing to host an event for a charity.  Once you’ve secured a venue, contact some local musicians and ask if they would be interested in performing in a charity concert.  Once you have three or four bands or musicians available, advertise the event on social media and in local papers.  Donate the ticket sales to a worthy charity.  Encourage musicians and music venues to participate in your event by reminding them that while they won’t make money directly from ticket sales of the event, they will get positive exposure. Music venues, additionally, will earn money from the sale of food and drinks during the concert, while musicians can sell their records and other merchandise. Identify charities that match your interests, then research each to ensure they are legitimate.  Check each organization’s website for a clear mission statement and lists of its programs, board of directors, and accomplishments.  Find out how you can make a donation by checking the organization’s website.  The easiest way will probably be to use a credit card, PayPal, or another digital payment service. Many charities also accept checks or money orders. If you can’t find information online about how to make a donation, call the charity’s offices directly and inquire about how to do so. Use a third-party site like CharityWatch or GuideStar to identify charities and nonprofits that are legitimate.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There should be very little soil left. When it does need to be repotted, move it into a container that is no more than 1 inch larger than the old one. Put 1 inch of potting soil into the new container, gently remove the Hoya from its old container and set it in the new one. Fill in around the roots with potting soil and water it generously to settle the soil and give it a good drink. It will bloom again on that same stem. The faded flowers can be snipped off with sharp scissors just below the flower.

SUMMARY: Do not repot the Hoya until the container is full of roots. Repot your plant with peat-based potting soil. Leave the flower stem on the Hoya after the blooms fade.
