Article: Turn the oven on to 350 degrees F (180 C). Spray a 9 x 5-inch (23 x 13-cm) loaf pan with cooking spray. This will prevent the bread from sticking to the pan. Measure all of the dry ingredients into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Whisk the ingredients together for about 30 seconds, so they're incorporated. You'll need:  2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour 1/2 cup (100 g) white sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt Melt 1/4 cup (56 g) of unsalted butter in a separate mixing bowl. Add 1 cup (240 ml) of buttermilk and 1 large egg. Whisk the wet mixture until the egg is well mixed. If you don't want to use butter, you can substitute the same amount of olive or vegetable oil. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to gently stir the mixtures together until they're just combined. If you'll be adding optional flavors, it's fine if there's still a little dry mixture in the dough. You can easily make sweet or savory flavored quick bread. Just stir the added flavors in until they're just combined, since you don't want to over-mix the dough. You can add up to 1 1/2 cups of mix-ins (like the dried fruits or nuts), or add seasonings and herbs according to your taste. Good options for quick bread include:   Fruit: cranberries, dried cherries, apples, blueberries, orange zest, raisins  Nuts: walnuts, pecans, almonds  Herbs and spices: dill, pesto, caraway seeds, chili powder, garlic powder  Cheese: parmesan, cheddar

Preheat the oven and prepare a pan. Whisk together the dry ingredients. Melt the butter and stir in the wet ingredients. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Stir in any optional flavors.
Article: As in trap shooting, skeet shooting involves aiming at small clay targets that are launched through the air to simulate bird hunting. They're typically orange and typically about 4–5 inches (10.2–12.7 cm) in diameter. They're fired individually and simultaneously from two different points at each side of an arc of stations, where you'll rotate, firing between 2 and 4 shots at each target. A round of skeet involves 25 shots. Generally speaking, a skeet gun is an over-under double-barrel shotgun. Though any type of shotgun would be appropriate for the task of shooting skeet, this type of gun is often referred to as a "skeet gun" among experienced shooters for its accuracy and range.  Consider adding relatively open chokes to improve your accuracy and ensure that you'll hit the target regularly. This is a common addition among experienced skeet shooters. When shooting skeet, you'll move between 7 different stations in an arc (21 yards from the target launch) and one point from slightly closer up. You're essentially aiming in the same general direction each time (down range) but you'll change your angle on the targets when you move from point to point. There are two traps which release clay targets from either side of the range, one low target and one higher target, both of which will cross your field of vision and your firing line. The object is to hit both of the targets. The order of the targets being released changes from station to station. Generally, you'll only shoot one target from each trap, though this changes at different points along the way. Learning the pattern is part of the strategy of the event.   At stations 1 and 2 a single target is released from the higher trap, then a single target is released from the lower trap (sometimes called "high house" and "low house").  Then, there'll be another target released from the low trap, and then targets released simultaneously. On the simultaneous release, the object is to shoot the higher target first. A total of four shorts will be taken at each station.  At stations 3 through 5 a single target will be released from the higher target, then a single target released from the lower house, for a total of two shots at each station.  At stations 6 and 7 The pattern is exactly the same as stations one and two. A high target, a low target, and then simultaneous targets. The only difference is that the lower target should be shot first this time. There will be a total of four shots taken at each of these stations.  At station 8, the closer-up station, you'll shoot a high target and a low target. If you've not missed up until this point, there'll be a bonus shot on a target released from the lower house.

Know what you're shooting at. Use a skeet gun. Learn the difference between the stations. Learn the target pattern.
Article: Bovine cartilage is a substance found in a cow's body that provides structural support to the bones. When extracted, it can be a quick and powerful acne cure.  Look for creams that contain 5% bovine cartilage. These can be found at department and health stores across the country.  Apply the creams twice daily for optimal results. Many lotions contain green tea extract, a herbal derivative of green tea leaves. It can be effective in combating acne breakouts.  Look for lotions containing at least 2% green tea extract. These can be found at department, drug, and health food stores.  This method works best in teens and adolescents and with people suffering from mild acne. If you're older, and your acne is severe, you might want to try another option. Aloe vera is a plant species that is used in small amounts in many gels and creams. It's very effective when it comes to fighting acne.  Aim for a 50% aloe vera gel and combine it with a conventional acne drug. Studies show using aloe vera alongside other medications is significantly better than using other methods alone.  Try to apply aloe vera while using an over the counter face creams. Use the amount recommended on the bottle. Do not use more than needed as this might result in skin irritation.  Aloe vera can work fast, but this is not always the case. It can sometimes take up to 8 weeks to work. Tea tree oil has long been considered good for the skin. Tea tree oil is effective in treating acne, but takes longer to work and you should not look to it if you want a fast cure.  Tea tree oil's main benefit is that it has less side effects than benzoyl cream and tends to eliminate acne more effectively. However, it takes significantly longer to have an effect. While it might be great for a longterm cure, it's not the best option for fast acting treatments.  Tea tree can cause contact dermatitis if you have an allergy. If you notice symptoms worsening, cease use.  Tea tree oil should never be taken orally, and can be particularly harmful to children if taken by mouth. Always dilute tea tree oil with another oil, like olive or almond oil, if you do choose to use it. Some oils have antibacterial and antiseptic properties that can help eliminate acne fast. If you're looking for a fast cure, they're worth a try. Remember, however, that you should never ingest essential oils. Only apply them topically.  Spearmint or peppermint can be diluted in a quart of water and applied to the face. The menthol in these substances has antiseptic properties. Lavender, thyme, and calendula all have antibacterial properties that can cleanse the face and eliminate blemishes quickly. Rosemary and oregano have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. These are hard to find in essential oil form, so you can instead use kitchen spices by diluting half a teaspoon of dried herbs in water.
