Summarize the following:
You'll need the title of the article or page you are on as part of your citation. Even if it's a blog post, you'll still need the title. Besides the title of the article, you'll need the name of the website. For example, this article's title is "How to Find the Author of a Website" and the website name is "wikiHow." This is the company, organization, or person that produces or sponsors the website. This may not be different than the website title, but be sure to check. For example, a health organization may run a separate website devoted to heart health. This isn't always possible, but you should always try to find the publication date if you can. If the article or publication has a volume or version number, make sure to note this for MLA citations. Depending on which method of citation you're using, and your instructor's guidelines, you may need the URL of the page or article. MLA7 no longer requires including the URL for websites. The page title and site title are sufficient. Check with your instructor if you use MLA for your citation format. If you are citing an online scholarly journal, include the DOI instead of the URL. This ensures that the reader will be able to find the article even if the URL changes:  For most publications, you can find the DOI at the top of the article. You may need to click an "Article" button or a button with the publisher's name. This will open the full article with the DOI at the top. You can look up a DOI by using the CrossRef search (crossref.org). Enter in the article title or the author to find the DOI. Now that you've gathered everything you can, even if you don't have an author, you're ready to create your citation. Use the following formats, skipping the Author entry if you can't find one:   MLA:  Author <Last, First M>. "Article Title." Website Title. Version Number. Website Publisher, Date Published. Web. Date Accessed.Use "n.p." if there is no publisher and "n.d." if there is no publishing date.   APA:  Author <Last, F>. Article Title. (Date Published). Website Title, Issue/Volume Number, Pages Referenced. Retrieved from <Full URL or DOI>

summary: Find the title of the page or article. Get the website name. Try to find the publisher. Find the date the page or article was published. Get a version number if possible (MLA). Get the article or web page URL (APA and older MLA). Get the DOI (digital object identifier) for scholarly journals (APA). Construct a citation from your available information.

Use a measuring tape to mark out the desired size of your bird table tabletop. With a handsaw or circular saw, trim off any excess wood to bring your tabletop to the right size.  If you’re unsure, start with a tabletop roughly 12 by 18 inches (30 by 46 cm) in size. The top of your table won’t need to support a large amount of weight, so any large sheet of wood should work. Make sure the wood you use for the tabletop and all other parts of the table is properly weather treated. If it’s not, you can waterproof the wood yourself. Trim around the edges of the table will help prevent the bird food from being blown away. Cut 4 pieces of 1 by 1 in (2.5 by 2.5 cm) wood so that they are roughly 2 inches (5.1 cm) shorter than the each of the edges of your tabletop.  Making the trim shorter than the tabletop will allow water to drain off it when it rains. If you’re making a table that is 12 by 18 inches (30 by 46 cm) in size, for example, you will need 2 pieces of trim 10 inches (25 cm) in length and 2 pieces that are 16 inches (41 cm) long. Use a tape measure to find and mark the middle of each side on your tabletop and each piece of trim wood. Cover one side of each piece of trim with a small amount of wood glue and press it onto the tabletop. The edge should be flush with the edge of the tabletop, and the 2 marks made should line up.  Use clamps to hold the wood in place as the glue dries fully. Make sure that you put the smaller pieces of trim on the shorter sides of the table. You should have a flat tabletop with trim around the edges, leaving a small gap between each piece of trim in the 4 corners. The wood glue should be dry after around 30 minutes to 1 hour. Check the instructions on your specific brand of wood glue for further advice on drying times. While the wood glue will hold the trim steady, it won’t be as long-lasting as screwing the trim in place. Use 1 1⁄2 in (3.8 cm) wood screws or deck screws to drill through the bottom of the tabletop and into the pieces of trim. Use 3 screws on each piece, with 1 in the middle and 1 roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) from each end. To make sure the screws go into the wood straight, drill some pilot holes first. Use a 3⁄32 inch (0.24 cm) drill bit to drill a small hole through the bottom of the tabletop and roughly 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) into the trim.

summary: Trim a large, 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) thick piece of wood to your desired size. Cut 4 pieces of 1 by 1 in (2.5 by 2.5 cm) wood to make trim for the table. Glue the wooden trim to the middle of each edge on the tabletop. Screw the trim into place.

Jeans do not actually need to be washed as regularly as other clothing items. In fact, washing jeans too often can cause them to fade prematurely.  You really only need to machine wash jeans once ever 4 to 6 weeks. If you notice any stains during this time frame, you can spot clean with household cleaners rather than throwing the jeans in the wash. If you're up to it, washing jeans by hand can be more gentle on them than machine washing. This should be a standard practice each time you throw a pair of jeans in with the laundry. Turning the jeans inside out will prevent detergent from wearing as harshly on the dye. Jeans washed inside out will maintain more of their color. If you notice your jeans seem to fade a bit with each wash, use a color protectant detergent. You can buy this at most supermarkets or department stores. You can also opt not to use detergent at all. Vinegar can be used as  replacement and may better preserve the color of your jeans.  Detergent is meant to eliminate stains but often does not differentiate between stains and dye. Vinegar, on the other hand, will make for a milder wash, cleaning your jeans without removing dye. Vinegar has a strong smell, however. If you have a sensitive nose, using vinegar may be a bad idea. Jeans tend to fade less when washed with other dark clothing. Dark dyes can fade in the wash and swirl around with other clothes. If clothing is packed in together, less dye will fade out. Wait until you have a lot of dark clothes that need washing before washing your jeans. Jeans require a gentle wash and low temperatures to prevent fading. Set your washer for the slowest spin cycle possible and the lowest temperature water. If there's an option for a gentle wash or a hand wash on your washing machine, use it.
summary: Wash jeans infrequently. Turn the jeans inside out prior to washing. Use a color preserving detergent or vinegar. Wash jeans with other garments. Use the lowest spin cycle and temperature.
