Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Gather and measure out all of the ingredients. Cream shortening and gradually add in sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each egg is added. Make a paste out of the cocoa and food coloring, then add to cream. Add salt, flour, baking soda, vanilla, and buttermilk, beating well after each ingredient is added. Pour vinegar over the batter. Stir until well mixed. Pour the cake in a large cake pan or 2 layer cake pans and bake in a 350ºF. Wait about 20 minutes to cool before frosting.

Answer: Good bakers know that moving quickly and efficiently in the kitchen leads to better cakes and smaller messes. Measuring out ahead of time makes it possible. Use an electric mixer set to medium speed. Add the sugar along the edges and slowly work it in to avoid sugar splatter. Mix in well, keeping your beater moving. It is okay if you add them both at once, too. In a separate bowl, use a whisk to blend the food coloring into the cocoa.  Fun Fact: The original red velvet cakes got their color because imported cocoa was actually red tinted. The food coloring came later. You can also mix the flour, salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl, adding at once. You can also add it all together into the batter one at a time, using the electric mixer to get a nice consistent batter. Add the flour slowly to avoid splatter. It can help to add it with the buttermilk. Just a splash is all you need -- it will give it a nice subtle tanginess. You want a thin, consistent batter with not chunks of flour or dry ingredients left. Want a little more red color? Add a few more drops of red food coloring. The cake should take roughly an hour to cook. When it is done, you'll know through the toothpick test -- stab the center of the cake with a knife or skewer-- if it comes out without still-wet batter on it, it's done. After 5 minutes, remove from the pan and let cool on a wire rack. Don't frost a hot cake -- the warmth with thin out the frosting and make it difficult, if not impossible, to add smoothly.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Measure the interior diameter of the exposed outflow pipe. Take the old flange to the hardware store and buy a matching one. Purchase a new wax ring that fits your new flange.

Answer: In most cases, the pipe should measure 4 in (10 cm) in diameter. Jot this measurement down for reference when you go to buy the new flange. If you’re able to take the old flange with you to the hardware store, this measurement is largely for backup purposes. However, if the old flange has broken into pieces, you’ll definitely need this measurement. Find a new flange that replicates the size and shape of the old one as closely as possible. This way, you’ll be sure of a solid fit.  If you can’t find a good match or need help in general, ask an employee at the store for help. If you don’t have the old flange, buy a new flange that matches the outflow pipe measurement you took. Some new flange kits come with a wax ring, while others require you to buy the ring separately. In any case, make sure you have a new wax ring to go with your new flange. Instead of wax, some newer rings are rubber gaskets instead. However, you can install a rubber gasket the same way you'd install a wax ring.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Volunteer at a local homeless shelter or soup kitchen. Volunteer at your church. Treat people with dignity and respect. Help people who need it.

Answer:
Jesus fed the sick, poor, and downtrodden on his journey to spread the word of God. When you do acts of good like help at a shelter or soup kitchen, it's part of being a Christian. Search online for shelters in your area and give them a call during business hours to inquire about opportunities to volunteer. In Proverbs 21:13 it says "Whoever shuts their ears to the cry of the poor will also cry out and not be answered." The church that you go to will probably be involved in some programs in your town to help others. Some churches will take missions to go to poorer countries and help the people there and disaster response, while others concentrate on improving the neighborhood. Call your local church and inquire about any volunteer opportunities available.  The Bowery Mission in New York City is one example of a church with volunteer opportunities to help the homeless. Things that they might have you do is feed the poor, clean up a community space, or help fix up or repair things at the church itself. In Galatians 3:28 it says, "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." This can be interpreted to mean that regardless of their beliefs or nationalities, you should treat all people with dignity and respect. Instead of spreading messages of hate because your theologies differ, extend the olive branch and talk to those that don't share the same belief systems.  Treat those in the LGBT community with dignity and respect as they are also God's children. Discrimination, racism, and sexism violate the word of God. You can help simply by listening to family or friends when they are going through rough times. Be understanding and caring to those that need the help, and try to refrain from judgment. Think of simple ways to improve the lives of those around you. You can also help in other ways like stopping for someone who needs assistance on the road or helping an elderly person with their groceries.
