In order to securely strap your motorcycle in place on a trailer or in the bed of a pickup truck, you will need three ratchet straps with at least one “soft loop” or heavy duty loop for your straps that is designed to prevent damage from rubbing on painted components of your motorcycle.  You may also choose to utilize a motorcycle wheel chock, but in many applications it is not required.  Make sure you have ratchet straps or tie downs to properly secure the motorcycle.  Bungee chords will not suffice. Soft loops and ratchet straps can be purchased at many large retail stores, auto parts stores or motorcycle specialty stores. If you opt to use wheel chocks, you should place one in front of and behind the rear wheel.  As the motorcycle is transported, it may rock forward and backward, and the chocks will help prevent too much pressure from being placed on the ratchet straps.  Wheel chocks are recommended for heavier motorcycles such as cruisers and grand touring bikes. Some motorcycle wheel chocks are shaped like a “U” and are designed to hold the entire front or rear tire. With the bike in position on the trailer or in the truck, hang two ratchet straps from the handle bars (one on each side).  Secure the opposite end of each strap to a loop or hook on the trailer or truck that is further back than the handlebars so the straps hang at an angle from the front of the bike to the back of the truck or trailer.  Tighten the straps enough until they are taut, but you will need to tighten them further once the back of the bike is strapped down as well.  The ratchet straps should be secured on either side of the truck or trailer to hooks that are further back than the handle bars. Optimally, the straps should be a forty-five degree angle from the motorcycle if viewed from above. Take the soft loop strap and connect it to a ratchet strap by placing the strap’s hook through the loop.  Run the loop through or around a portion of the rear of the motorcycle such as around the swing arm or even through the empty space of the wheel.  Secure the other end of the strap to a hook or loop at the front of the truck bed or trailer.  If your wheels have spokes, it is not recommended that you run the soft loop through them, as the tension may damage the spokes. Even with the soft loop, you may want to place a rag between the loop and any painted surfaces on the motorcycle to prevent scratches or scrapes in the paint during transit. With all of the straps in place, ask your friend to press down firmly on the handlebars with all of their weight as you use the ratchet to tighten the straps.  Your front suspension should be compressed (lowering the height of the motorcycle) while it is being transported.  Tighten the rear strap once the front two are all the way tightened.  The three straps should now prevent the motorcycle from moving forward, backward or left to right.  The motorcycle should be standing without the kickstand when the straps are tight enough. Do not strap the motorcycle down with the kickstand down, as it may damage the trailer or the bed of the truck and will force the motorcycle to sit at an angle.

One-sentence summary -- Gather the necessary equipment. Place wheel chocks around the rear tire. Strap the handlebars to the sides of the truck or trailer. Run a soft loop strap through the rear of the bike. Tighten down all the straps.

Q: Place a cushion, blanket, or yoga mat beneath you to cushion your knees. You can cross the front of the one ankle over the back of the other (with feet pointing out to the sides) if that feels better. If kneeling doesn’t feel good to you, take any other comfortable seated pose. Palms can be placed firmly against your knees with fingers splayed out. Draw breath through your nostrils until your lungs are full. Lengthen through the crown of your head and draw your shoulders back as you inhale to ensure your lungs are completely expanded. Close your eyes as you inhale. After you inhale, open your mouth wide as if you were at the dentist. Stick out your tongue and lengthen the tip out and down so that it extends towards your chin. For a more intense option, open your eyes wide at the same time that you open your mouth and bring your gaze upward. The breath should pass over the back of your throat and make a distinct “haaaa” sound. Imagine you are trying to fog up a window with your breath. You should feel the muscles in the front of your throat contract. Press down through your palms as you exhale. Since the exhalation of simhasana is meant to release negative energy, it is important that it remains powerful throughout your practice. Therefore, it is best to repeat Lion’s Breath only a few times in a row so that you don’t lose the strength behind the breath. If the strong exhalations make you feel at all dizzy, take a break from the pranayam and breathe normally for a few minutes. You can place one hand on your chest to help regulate your breath pace.
A: Kneel on the floor, sitting back onto your heels. Inhale deeply through the nose. Open your mouth and stretch your tongue out. Exhale the breath slowly out through your mouth. Repeat 2-3 times.

Article: Adding salt to beaten eggs starts breaking down the proteins, releasing moisture and creating a less uniform consistency in the egg mixture. This means that the eggs will temper less evenly when you add broth. Season the broth after the eggs have been tempered and added into the soup, not before you temper the eggs. Ladle out some of the broth, spooning in a small amount to the bowl with the eggs in it. Whisk the eggs vigorously while you add the liquid. Count to ten before you add another spoonful and allow the temperature to come up gradually. Try as best you can to only use broth to temper the eggs. Depending on what kind of soup you're making, it can be hard to avoid little chunks of vegetables or meat. It's fine if you get a bit of veg in there with your eggs–it's all going together anyway–but the eggs will whisk easier with just broth and egg, and the eggs will temper more quickly. Continue adding broth in small amounts and put your hand on the side of the bowl to check for the temperature. Look closely for steam. If you're doing it properly, the eggs should still be perfectly liquid, but should be steaming and warm, meaning that they're tempered properly. When you see steam, your eggs are tempered. When the bowl is steaming as much as the pot with the broth, you can pour the tempered eggs directly into the soup. Stir the eggs around to enrich the broth with the tempered eggs. The broth should thicken some–not much–and will take on a cloudier, slightly yellowish or milky color.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Don’t season the eggs. Start with a very small amount of broth. Continue adding until the bowl is steaming. Pour the mixture back into the soup pot.
