Q: Most pool tables are made to be adjustable, so you can make them level, regardless of what surface they're on. Some pool tables may have metal plates, which can be added or removed to raise or lower the sides. Other pool tables have adjustable legs, with feet that can be screwed clockwise or counterclockwise, to raise or lower that side. Your owner's manual will provide specific information about your pool table.  If you don't have the manual, just look at the legs to see how they're put together, and whether or not they have adjustable components. If your pool table does not, you can still use shims and other tiny adjustments to level the table. If the table features screw-in feet or legs, they'll usually be raised by turning them to the right and lowered by turning them to the left. But always defer to the owner manual to be sure. Sometimes, the bolts and screws used to assemble a pool table can loosen slightly over time, resulting in the table becoming off-level. If you tighten up all the attachment screws, you can sometimes level out the table without even adjusting the height. Pool tables involve any number of different screws and screwdrivers to tighten. Look at the screws themselves to figure out what you need, or consult the owner's manual. If your pool table is adjustable, raise the lowest corner of the pool table by one degree, the least it can be adjusted. Leave the carpenter's level on the pool table, and check for the change. If that was too much, and the table has been unleveled in the wrong direction, lower it back to where it was and use shims to make smaller adjustments. More on this in the next section. Sometimes, you'll have to make lots of little tweaks on different sides to get the top of the table completely level. It's partially a trial-and-error process, so don't get discouraged. Leave the level on the top of the table and check for level after every adjustment. You can also leave the over adjusted leg as it is, and use shims on the over levels, if you'd rather. It's partially a trial-and-error process. Shims are small, tapered shards of wood that you can use to fill gaps and adjust the height of things like pool tables. They're commonly sold in the carpentry sections of any hardware or home goods store, usually in packages with variable sizes. You can trim the shims to fit underneath the feet of the table if necessary, to make sure that they don't show. If the feet are big enough, though, you may not need to worry about it. Have one or more assistants lift the corner of the table that needs to be raised. Carefully, place a shim underneath the leg, lowering the foot onto it gently.  Use the carpenter's level to check the balance of the pool table. See how the shim has affected the level of the top. Continue to add shims underneath the legs until the pool table is balanced. Move to other corners if necessary, to make other adjustments. Pool tables don't need to be absolutely flat for them to work well enough to play on. If you can get it close enough, but not totally perfect, don't keep adding and removing the same shim over and over.  Roll a couple balls to see how true they move. If it looks good to you, go with it. Do the marble-and-glass test again. If it sits still, you've got a playable table.
A: Consult your owner's manual, if you have it. Tighten all attachment screws under the table. Raise the lowest table leg one degree. Adjust the other table legs, if necessary. Use shims to fine-tune the level. Get a few helpers if you need to add shims. Quit while you're ahead.

Article: Magic erasers are a popular type of household cleaning product made from melamine foam. Although a fairly new cleaner, magic erasers have become quite common and can usually be found at your local grocery store. Use a magic eraser when you want to clean the whole surface of the ball quickly. Magic erasers are especially effective for removing all types of stains from white leather. However, keep in mind that also includes ink stains. Don't use a magic eraser on an autographed ball. Run your eraser under the tap and squeeze to remove excess water. While magic erasers can also be used dry, they are more effective with some moisture. Water makes it easier for dirt to cling to in the same way that a wet paper towel is a much more effective cleaning tool compared to a dry one. You may also choose to cut your magic eraser into multiple pieces with a pair of scissors. You'll increase its surface area, getting more use for your money. The smaller size will also be easier to grip while working on a small object like a baseball. Melamine foam is a soft material with an extremely hard microstructure that works as an abrasive cleaner. In other words, magic erasers clean surfaces in a manner similar to a sander, directly scraping away dirt and grime with friction. Because magic erasers don't hold their shape, you will need to both grip yours securely and press down fairly hard. From there, make a few back-and-forth motions as you would erase pencil from paper. It should lift the stain fairly quickly, needing only a few passes to work its "magic." Turn the ball in your hand and continue to rub until the entire surface is clean. Avoid rubbing the stitching on the seams of the ball too much, as you don't want to damage or fray them. Frayed seams will ruin the look and durability of the ball. Remember that melamine foam cleans through abrasion. While it shouldn't harm the leather of the main part of your ball, the thinner cotton stitching can be more prone to damage.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Purchase a magic eraser. Wet the magic eraser. Rub the surface of the ball with the magic eraser. Rotate the ball as you clean.

Q: In addition to its other negative health benefits, smoking causes you to inhale excess air that may cause you to have excess gas. Stop smoking to reduce the amount of excess air that you swallow and help prevent excess gas. Stress and anxiety can cause you to have excess gas, so it is important to incorporate relaxation into your daily routine. Try meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to reduce the amount of excess gas that you have as a result of stress and anxiety. Physical disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diabetes, and celiac disease will cause gas symptoms despite your best efforts to reduce gas in your system. Your doctor can prescribe medications to help you deal with IBS and other such chronic conditions.
A:
Quit smoking. Relax daily. Talk to your doctor about prescription medications if watching your diet or taking over-the-counter diet aids aren't helping your gas issues.
