When your honoree arrives, you can jump out and yell surprise,  but you can also add to the surprise by making a lot of noise. Give your guests instruments like whistles or shakers, or instruct them to sing or clap when the honoree arrives. Instead of the traditional surprise approach, have guests walk in on the guest of honor, instead of the guest of honor walking into the surprise. Choose a day that appears "typical" to the guest of honor, and instruct your guests to casually file in one by one. Watch your honoree glow with shock as they see the number of their loved ones arriving to honor them. If you are planning an outdoor event, surprise the honoree by showering them with items like silly string, or water from water guns or water balloons. If you are choosing the water option, make sure the party is water-themed so that the guest will dress appropriately; either have on a swimsuit or have a change of clothes handy. Consider your honoree's reaction before taking this route. Some people will not be happy about getting their clothes wet or having their hair covered with silly string. Begin serving food and drinks ahead of time. This will help detract from some of the spotlight and ease the honoree into the party more easily.

One-sentence summary -- Make as much noise as possible. Consider a quiet surprise. Use silly string or water guns. Make sure your party is in progress, when the guest of honor arrives.

Q: Visit your local library or a bookstore to begin reading about electronics. Even older books have a lot of information about electrical circuits and how they work. Use it to study the basics before you begin building your own circuits.  Try books like Make:  Electronics, The Art Of Electronics, or Foundations of Analog and Digital Electronic Circuits. For more resources, search online for informative websites and digital book copies. Search your phone’s Play Store to find a number of informative, hands-on apps. Some apps teach you the basics of electronics, while others let you design your own circuit board using a touchscreen. For example, try Electronics Basics or ElectroDroid. An electrical current consists of electrons, which are the negatively charged particles in atoms. In a current, the electrons flow from a negative source, such as a battery terminal. Then, it flows around the circuit and returns to the positive terminal. You can think of it like a faucet. When the faucet turns on, “water” is pushed through until it reaches the end of the pipe. Voltage is a measurement of the force needed to make a current flow through a circuit. In a circuit, the electrons accumulate near the battery’s negative terminal. Energy is needed to get the current to flow through the circuit, and this measurement is the voltage. Think of it as pressure in a water tank. When water is drained from the tank, the pressure goes down and less water flows out. Resistance slows the current in a circuit. Different materials inhibit electricity more than others. You will need a stronger electrical current to pass through insulation than a conductive material like metal. This increases the voltage. For example, imagine water pipes of different sizes. Water faces more resistance flowing through the smaller pipe due to the lack of space. Electrical diagrams and schematics use symbols to denote components. Before you can copy one to build your own circuit, find out what the symbols mean. Search online for a list of symbols used as shorthand in diagrams.  The straight lines are wires. A battery is represented by a + sign followed by a long and short straight line. Diodes, for example, are represented by triangles. Resistors are represented by squares or jagged lines.
A: Read books to learn the fundamentals of electronics. Download a phone application to study electrical engineering. Study how a current travels along a wire. Read about the voltage in a circuit. Study the resistance factor of different objects. Read circuit diagrams to understand the notation.

Article: If you have not bought shoes for a while, consider getting your foot size measured at the store. People's feet tend to change sizes as they age, and you do not want to buy a shoe that is too small or too large. Many flats also come in narrow, normal/medium, and wide widths. If you have very narrow or very wide feet, this is something you might want to consider. Most flat shoes will come in different heights: below the ankle, above the ankle, and boot height. Here are some examples of the different types of flats:  Below the ankle flats, such as Converse, moccasins, loafers, pointy-toed flats, and ballet flats, help legs appear longer. Above the ankle flats, such as low boots, military boots, high top Converse, and sandals with ankle straps, tend to make legs look shorter. Flat boots are great for the winter, and can help legs look more slender. Consider getting boots that have a slight dip in the front. These can be flattering on all body types. The more versatile a pair of shoes is, the better. Having fewer shoes that you can build outfits around will also help save space in small closets. Everybody can wear flats, but certain styles paired with certain outfits look more flattering on certain body types than others.  If you have a petite body, consider pairing flats with skinny jeans that hit at the ankle. This will help to make you appear taller. Stick to more pointed toes rather than rounded toes. If you have an hourglass shape, wear flats with dresses that finish above the knees. If you have fuller shaped legs, choose flats in a lighter color. This will make what you are wearing the focal point, rather than drawing attention to your legs and feet. Nude-colored shoes also tend to make legs look longer. If you have a tall body, consider pairing flats with a loose top and leggings. If you want to make your legs look longer or leaner, opt for a very slight heel.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Get the right size shoe. Know that there are different types of flats. Before you buy a pair, think about at least three different outfits you can wear them with. Consider matching your shoe to your body type.
