In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Whether you want to add an emblem or are designing for efficiencies, sketch out what you want the final sail to look like so that you have a jumping off point. Look to other similar boats for inspiration. Research the dimensions of similar sails and have an idea of what kind of sailing you’d like to do. This gives basic reference points to research and execute. Depending on the size of the vessel, making your sail can be a huge undertaking. Ensure that you have a workspace that can not only house a large piece of material but can also give you room to maneuver while making a lot of noise. Whether you’re a hobbyist or professional, you will need an industrial sewing machine that is able to do a zigzag stitch using V69 thread. It may be wise to let a professional take care of the sewing to ensure safety and maximum durability. If you are planning to sew the sail yourself, you will also need a special sewing table to be able to support the industrial sewing machine. This table needs to be about twice the size of a table tennis table in order to support the size of the sail. Measure the boat you intend to use the sale for in order to calculate the appropriate size of your sail. If you have a short boom and a tall mast then that is a High aspect. If you have a long boom and a short mast, it is a low aspect. Shorter booms give you more maneuverability.
Summary: Draw a basic outline. Find a suitable workspace. Address your sewing needs. Know the boom and mast dimensions.

Freshwater snails are omnivores, and they typically subsist off of the algae and food debris in a fish aquarium. Include aquatic plants for your snails to graze on as well.  Check with your vet or a clerk at your local pet store to find out which types of fish live best alongside your species of freshwater snails. If you don't have fish in the same aquarium as your snails, you can purchase small algae discs. Follow the instructions on the packaging, and provide the right number of disks for the number of snails in your tank.  Algae discs are readily available online or at most pet stores. In addition to algae, freshwater snails enjoy a diet of blanched vegetables. Blanching involves dipping veggies into boiling water for 2 minutes before dunking them in ice water. Freshwater snails especially like to eat shelled peas, carrots, cucumber, zucchini and iceberg lettuce. Allow the blanched vegetables to cool completely, then add them to your aquarium.  Chop or shred add vegetables into pieces smaller than a time. Begin by adding a small amount of blanched veggies each morning, and gauge how quickly your snails can finish them. Add a bit more or less until you notice that all of the food is being eaten in 12 hours or less. Remove uneaten produce after 24 hours. Just like land snails, freshwater snails require calcium to keep their shells healthy and strong. Provide a calcium source that your snails can nibble on, as a supplement to your snails' diet. Some sources of calcium for freshwater snails include:  Cuttlebone Shells from dead snails Oyster shells Natural limestone (be aware that this may raise your pH levels) How much, how often, and what you feed your snails will vary based on their species, the number of snails in your tank, and what other aquatic life shares the aquarium with your snails. The best course of action is to speak to someone at the place where you purchased the snails, or consult a vet.  You may still need to do a bit of trial and error to figure out exactly what your snails like. If your snails are leaving a lot of food behind, try providing a little bit less food, or experimenting with different food choices. A good starting place is to feed aquatic snails as much food as they can consume in about 3 minutes, twice daily. Some snail species may need additional food sources, such as fish food or bottom feeder tablets.

One-sentence summary -- House freshwater snails with fish. Provide algae disks. Offer blanched vegetables that have been shredded into very small pieces. Provide an additional calcium source for your freshwater snails. Get advice about your snail's diet from a clerk, expert, or vet.

Q: Follow the traditional outline of introduction, evidence, insights and conclusion. Imagine you are writing a story and need to map out the plot. Structure your report to respond to three aspects of the thing you are presenting or answer three questions, such as “what,” “why” and “how.” The human mind is set up to respond positively to three things in a list or in a presentation. This will help evoke a mental image and get them thinking critically about what you’re saying. Balance that and then tell them why the data is important in each of your three sections. Remember, most of the data can be shown with visual aids, so don’t over report. Instead of telling them the trends you see in the data, challenge them to find what the trends are telling the company. Build interaction into your presentation to avoid boring lectures. Adjust your writing for each new audience you have. Research your audience so that you can better customize your presentation to their needs. Practice it in front of a colleague or friend so that you can ask them what they’ve taken away from the presentation. The audience may only leave with this impression. A shorter presentation is likely to be memorable. If the presentation is over 30 minutes, you should consider cutting it back or breaking it up into several chapters.
A: Create an outline before you start writing. Use the rule of threes. Tell a story or ask a question to get the audience thinking right away. Find the most compelling data. Ask the audience questions. Match the vocabulary and tone to your audience. Ensure there is good flow to your presentation. Explain how your presentation or proposal adds value to the person’s life. Keep it short and sweet.

Problem: Article: You need a few special materials to make a matchbook advent calendar. Craft matchboxes come in various sizes, so feel free to mix and match. Washi tape is a type of decorative masking tape. You can find these supplies online, or at your local craft store:   Enough matchbooks to make 25-31 days Patterned paper Washi tape Stickers Ribbon Craft glue Decorative trinkets Markers and paints Decide how many calendar days you want to include in your advent calendar. Lay out the appropriate number of matchboxes.  Remove the drawer from each matchbox so that you're only decorating the shell. Use a combination of ribbons, washi tape, and decorative paper to decorate each shell.  Decorate the front of the drawers to match the shells. You don't have to use identical patterns for the drawers and shells, but make sure they complement each other. Use paints or markers to add numbers to the front of the drawers. Or, if you prefer, cut out some numbers from the scraps of your decorative paper and glue them to the drawers. Feel free to mix and match techniques when making the numbers. Your advent calendar should be a reflection of your creativity. Once you've decorated every matchbox, fill them with tiny gifts such as candy, money, or small toys. Get creative with your gift ideas! You can also make personalized certificates to put in the matchboxes. If you're making one for your mom or dad, put a certificate that says you'll do a chore. If you're making one for your boyfriend or girlfriend, make a certificate good for a romantic dinner. Stack the matchboxes until you've made the shape of a Christmas tree. Once you're happy with the shape, glue the boxes to each other. Make sure all the drawers are facing the same direction. Place the calendar on a table or counter top, or thread some ribbon through the top box and hang it on the wall.
Summary:
Gather your supplies. Decorate the boxes. Add numbers to the drawers. Fill the matchboxes with gifts. Arrange the matchboxes into a tree.
