Q: Ranting about an unfamiliar subject is a great way to embarrass yourself and may even inadvertently win points for the issue or topic you're trying to rail against. Only rant about things that you're already familiar with.  It's usually a good idea to do a little research to back up and bolster your already-familiar experience with the topic or issue. Even if you think you're sure, make your rant air-tight with specific facts. Even if you think your opinion about an issue is iron-clad, try to make sure to bolster your strong opinion with facts, so your rant doesn't end up looking foolish. You may even end up becoming a passionate advocate for the other side, if you dig around in the issue. The difference between a good rant and a whiney blog post has to do with stakes. If you're going to rant effectively, there needs to be some deeper issue or cause behind the thing that you're ranting against. There needs to be a reason to complain. Find it before you start complaining.  The stakes of something like hydraulic fracking and mountain top removal mining may be obvious, but may be less obvious about what so-and-so wore to the red carpet. That doesn't mean you can't rant about both effectively, you've just got to dig a little deeper. Rants can be cultural, political, social, and address issues of class, race, sexuality, and any number of different topics. Find the serious issue behind the surface if you want your rant to go deeper. What really gets under your skin about that particular topic? Before you launch directly into your rant, it's a good idea to brainstorm a list of irritations from which you can build an effective rant. The more specific, the better.  A personal story can lend a great amount of pathos to a rant. Do you have any personal experiences that could be used to your advantage? If you were recently stopped and frisked  by a police officer for no reason, it might make your rant much more passionate to include the story. Stick with your subject until you find something serious at the center of it. So reality TV annoys you. So what? Stick with it until you find something more interesting. When you rant, you want to direct your rant exactly where it will hurt the opposition. Don't shy away from contradictions, fallacies, and other failures of logic that you find in the subject you want to rant against.  What is it that just doesn't make sense to you about your little irritation? If you can't stand the sitcom "Two and Half Men," you may instinctively want to say, "It's just stupid," but keep going to find the weak spot. Why is it stupid? What's stupid about it? How can you articulate the stupidity? You might decide that the show you hate presents stereotypical versions of men and women. Start looking for examples of this to back up your rant. Pick on them specifically and your rant will be super-strong.
A: Choose a subject about which you're well informed. Pick something with high stakes to rant against. List out the negatives. Find a weak spot.

Q: Once you uncover the eggs, you should not turn them. Lizard eggs begin developing almost immediately and attach to the side of the egg. Use a pencil to gently mark the side of the egg facing you when you found it. This helps you remember the top of the egg so you don't damage the lizard inside. Moving them or rolling them to the other side can damage the embryo and kill the developing lizard. Some lizards will lay their eggs in a pile, which makes them stick together. If you find them early enough, you should carefully separate the eggs, trying not to damage the fragile shells. If they are stuck together, don't force them apart. Separating the eggs help protect them. If one egg dies, mold or fungi from it can infect the healthy egg. The medium, or substance, that you place the eggs on inside the incubation tank is important. It should be able to retain water to help keep the incubator humid. It should be sterile or close to it, and it shouldn't promote growth of mold or fungi.  Perlite and vermiculite are common mediums that eggs can successfully incubate and hatch on. These mediums are very similar, and the choice is usually based on preference. You can find these substances at nurseries or home improvement stores with garden centers. Incubation medium goes on the bottom of the container you're placing your eggs in. Place about one to two inches (25 to 50 mm) of medium at the bottom of the container. It is important to keep the incubation medium moist while waiting for the eggs to hatch. Add water until the medium is barely clumping together. It should not be so wet that water drips out of it when it is squeezed. Keep the medium at this moisture level until the eggs hatch. Before you move the egg, make an indentation with your finger in the incubation medium where you want to put the egg. This gives the egg a secure place to lay so it won't roll around and hurt the embryo. This space also allows you to bury the egg slightly. The egg should be about half covered with the medium. Place multiple eggs about a fingers width apart from each other. Place the indentations in a line. When you are ready to move the eggs, use great care. First, make sure your hands are clean. Don't turn or roll the eggs around when moving them. Keep the top of the egg where you made a pencil mark facing up. Place them in the medium inside the container.  Don't let the eggs roll around when you move them. If the eggs are stuck on a branch, remove the branch and place it in the incubator.  Do not try to remove the eggs from the branch because they will break. Cut the branch as small as possible without disturbing the eggs and try to find a container big enough for the branch too. Close the lid on the container containing the eggs. Then, place the container in the incubator. Write down the date of when the eggs were laid and placed in the incubator, calculate when they should hatch, and mark it on your calendar.
A:
Mark the eggs with a pencil. Separate the eggs. Choose an incubation medium that will retain water and remain sterile. Keep the medium moist. Make places in the medium for the eggs with your finger. Move the eggs into the container very carefully. Place the container in the incubator.
