Set your oven’s temperature to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (130 degrees Celsius), and let it heat fully so it’s warm enough to dry the pretzels. Next, place a wire cooling rack on a large baking sheet for the pretzels to dry on. Line the baking sheet with foil, parchment paper, or wax paper before placing the cooling rack on it. You’ll have less mess to clean up that way. Place 1 cup (175 g) of white melting chocolates or chips into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Heat the white chocolate on high in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval. Continue until the white chocolate is completely melted. You can melt the white chocolate in a double boiler if you prefer. Place ½ cup (125 g) of blueberry yogurt in one medium bowl and ½ cup (125 g) of vanilla yogurt in a separate bowl. Next, add a 2 ½ cups (312 g) of powdered sugar to each bowl, and mix until it’s fully incorporated into each yogurt flavor. You can use any flavors of yogurt that you like for the pretzels. If you prefer, you can also use 1 full cup (250 g) of a single flavor of yogurt and mix all of the powdered sugar into it. When the powdered sugar is fully mixed into each flavor of yogurt, add half of the melted white chocolate to the blueberry yogurt mixture and the other half to the vanilla yogurt mixture. Stir well until the white chocolate is fully incorporated into each mixture. When each flavor of the yogurt mixture is fully blended, coat 1 16 ounce (454 g) bag of miniature pretzels in the two flavors. Use a pair of tongs to dip the pretzels and lif them to set them on the cooling rack to dry. You can coat half of the pretzels in the blueberry flavored yogurt mixture and the other half in the vanilla, or break the flavors up to have more of your favorite. Once all of the pretzels are coated, shut off your oven. Set the baking sheet with the pretzels inside, and leave the door slightly open. Allow the pretzels to set for 3 to 4 hours before serving them. Store your leftover pretzels in an airtight container. They should stay fresh for 2 to 3 days.

Summary: Preheat the oven and set a cooling rack on a baking sheet. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave. Combine half of the powdered sugar with each yogurt flavor. Divide the white chocolate between the yogurt mixtures. Dip the pretzels into the yogurt mixture of your choice and set on the rack. Turn the oven off and place the baking sheet in the oven to dry the pretzels. Finished.


You should now have lush waves. Apply hair spray to keep in place or just leave it naturally.  It will last a little longer then. Leave it in as long as possible, then take it out. Not as good as overnight, though.

Summary: Brush your hair and split it in two, or a few large sections, and bring round to the front, so both of the sections are equal. Braid each side, quite tightly, all the way to the end as far as you can braid. Tie the ends with a bobble, or hair tie, to keep them in place. Get a good night's sleep! Wake up and take the braids out. Style your hair how you like - have it down with a funky hair band for a cute look! You can do this when your hair is wet, then add a little cream, use a hairdryer to make it half-dry, then sleep! If not done overnight, wet your hair with cream and a tiny bit of gel/conditioner, do the braiding, then blow dry it with heat. Finished.


Leave a large space to the right hand side of your paper -- you'll need it to write out the factors. Keep them in separate lists. It may be easiest if the lists line up on top of each other. Start with 1 and work your way up, listing them in pairs.  For example, if your fraction is 24/60, start off with 24.You'd write: 24 -- 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24  Then, move onto 60.You'd write: 60 -- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60 This may be referred to as the GCF in your textbook. What's the biggest number that goes into both the numerator and the denominator? Whatever it is, divide both numbers by that. For our example, the biggest number that is a factor of both numbers is 12. Therefore, we divide 24 by 12 and 60 by 12, leaving us with 2/5 -- our reduced fraction!

Summary: Write out your fraction. List the factors of the numerator and the denominator. Find and divide by the greatest common factor.


If you're going to be on trails with steep drop-offs or rocky cliffs and your dog will be off-leash, it's better to have a dog that watches her step and has good balance than to get a dog that in her excitement might slip and fall. An agile dog will be an excellent companion for hiking because they'll be able to navigate tricky paths and trails without much assistance from their owner. Some dogs that fall in this category include:  Weimaraner Akita Dogs that are easy to train usually make excellent hiking companions because they can learn the trails and how you expect them to behave quickly. They will also usually interact well with other hikers and dogs. Some of these breeds include:  German Shepherd Labrador Retriever Norwegian Buhund Some dogs (like the Pitt Bull and Rottweiler) are prone to aggression unless trained very diligently. Others are difficult to train – like Huskies and Akitas. Be careful when choosing one of the following breeds as a hiking partner:  Pitt Bull Rottweiler Shiba Inu Husky A greyhound or a whippet, for example, will probably not enjoy a 10 mile (16 km) hike because they are bred for sprinting, not endurance. Additionally, flat-faced breeds such as English Bulldogs will struggle to breathe on long hikes and in hot weather, and so generally shouldn't undertake endurance activities. Some breeds with high endurance include:  German Shepherd Chesapeake Bay Retriever
Summary: Find a breed that is agile. Choose an easily trainable dog. Be cautious about certain breeds. Look for a dog with good endurance.
