Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Place the baking sheet in the bag with half a cup of ammonia. Set the pan outside for a day. Scrub down the pan with steel wool. Rinse the pan completely.

Answer: Take a plastic bag big enough to hold the baking sheet. Pour half a cup of ammonia in the bag. Seal the bag completely. The ammonia will take about a day to break down the debris on a baking sheet. Place the sheet somewhere outside, such as your porch or balcony, where it will be exposed to sunlight. This helps the ammonia break down grease and stains on the pan. Ammonia is toxic, so keep the pan out of reach of animals and children. After a day has passed, remove the pan from the bag. Use a steel wool sponge to scrub down the pan. This should remove any built up dirt, debris, and grease. It is very important to rinse ammonia off completely before using your pan again. Rinse your pan under running water or using a clean, wet rag. Make sure you get all remaining traces of ammonia off of the pan before using it again.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Don't plug in your microphone if you're not using it. Refrain from trash-talking other players. Learn the game's online community guidelines. Play with your team's well-being in mind. Attend the game you're playing. Finish your match. Accept game outcomes. Be kind.

Answer: One of the more annoying aspects of playing online is having to hear inactive microphones picking up background noise. Doing the same with your microphone is a good way to get your account muted in-game as well as reported for harassment if the behavior continues in subsequent matches. Even though a fair amount of players will insult or belittle you while you play online, ignoring them is a much better course of action than responding. You can typically press the "Back" button in the middle-left side of your controller to bring up a list of in-game players, at which point you can select players' names and press A to mute them. Though some rules--such as refraining from harming team mates--are universal, most games have online-specific etiquette that you'll have to learn as you play. One way to get a jump-start on this information is by browsing the game's community forums or by observing other players' gameplay. For example: while not explicitly stated in the game, healing yourself during a player-versus-player fight in Dark Souls is widely regarded as a dishonorable thing to do. Online gaming can be an inherently lonely process, but if you're a part of a team, you should take actions that benefit the team as a whole, not just yourself.  If you're not prepared to "play the objective", consider playing a game type that doesn't emphasize teamwork. An example of this concept might be leaving powerful equipment, weapons, or vehicles for another team mate if you know you aren't well-equipped to handle them. If you're playing a game without a team dynamic, ignore this step. If your character is simply standing around in an ongoing multiplayer game while you're doing something else, you become a liability for your team. If you aren't completely committed to the notion of playing a round in your game, consider waiting to jump into a match until you're ready. Quitting early both lets your team down and marks your account as a poor sportsmanship profile, meaning that if you do it often enough, you won't get invited to matches. Complaining that a game was unfair or that the results of a match aren't right doesn't change anything, and it can hurt the experience for other players. There will be times where the outcome actually isn't fair, of course, but try to remember that the same goes for instances in which you were on a team that unfairly won. People on Xbox LIVE also tend to dislike complaints about poor Internet connections (e.g., "lag"). More than anything else, your best course of action while playing online is to respect the people with whom you're playing.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare a double boiler. Place the beeswax inside the top of the double boiler. Melt the beeswax in the double boiler. Add the coconut oil and essential oils. Stir the mixture until it’s fully melted. Pour the mixture in a container. Let the pomade cool for at least three hours.

Answer: To create beeswax hair pomade, you first need to melt the beeswax so that it can easily mix with the other ingredients. Begin by placing a double boiler on the stovetop over medium low heat with about one inch (2.54 cm) of water in the bottom pot.  If you don’t have a double boiler, you can make a makeshift double boiler by placing a small pot on the stove, pouring an inch (2.54 cm) of water inside, then placing a heat safe bowl on top of the pot of water. Use a bowl that is wide enough so that it can sit on the top of the pot rather than inside the pot. Place the 20 tablespoons (98.57 ml) of beeswax inside the top pot of the double boiler (or in the bowl if you are using a makeshift double boiler). After you place the beeswax in the double boiler, you should see that it starts to soften and melt. Stir the beeswax around using a wooden spoon until it is completely melted. Once the beeswax has completely melted, add in the 20 teaspoons (98.57 ml) of pure coconut oil as well as 20 drops of your favorite scented essential oil. Use the wooden spoon to keep mixing the pomade mixture while it heats. Stop mixing when all the ingredients are fully melted and the mixture is homogenous. Once you have finished making the pomade, pour it into a small, clean container with a lid, making sure to scrape down the sides of the double boiler to get all of the pomade. Once you have poured the pomade into the container, leave the pomade to cool for at least three hours before you use it. Letting the pomade sit will help it to solidify to the right consistency to use on your hair.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Call the hiring manager directly. Call during non-peak hours. Check on the status of your application first. Ask the hiring manager if they need anything else from you. Ask about an interview timeline.

Answer:
In the case of a call, you want to speak directly with the hiring manager. Avoid talking to a general HR specialist or a customer service representative. Even if they say they will take your message, the odds of it getting to the right person are slim. Call the contact listed in the job posting, if any. If no contact is posted, dig around online for the person that seems like the most likely fit. Peak hours for every company are a little different, so do a bit of research into the industry. Restaurants, for example, will be busiest during lunch and dinner hours, but may have some down time from 2pm to 4pm. Call during non-peak hours to raise your chances of the hiring manager answering.  No matter the industry, try not to call right after the start of business. People are generally bombarded with voicemails and emails at that time, and may not pick up. Don’t call directly before closing, either. Your contact person is likely packing up and getting ready to leave, and may be annoyed if they have to stay longer to answer a call. If the hiring manager answers when you call, the first thing you want to do after saying hello is to give them your name and request a quick status check on the hiring process. This will let you know if they are still going through resumes or if they have moved on to interviews and hiring. You may, for example, say something like, “Hello. This is John Doe calling about the cat groomer position. I am very excited about this role and your company, and I just wanted to make sure my application was received.” If the hiring manager confirms that your resume has been received, ask them if they need anything else from you. Use this as a chance to briefly talk about one of your skills related to the position. If you are applying for a graphic designer position, for example, ask the manager, “Do you need any more samples of my work? I could send some that really highlight my experience designing text-based logos.” Before you hang up, thank the hiring manager for their time and ask them about a time line for next steps. If you feel particularly bold, you can even end with a line like, “When would be a good time to meet and talk about this further?”
