Article: For optimal growth, clematis need six hours of sun each day so a sunny location is necessary. You'll get the best results if you keep the roots in shade and the foliage in sun - you can do this by using mulch, planting a low bush in front of it, or setting rocks on the soil around the plant. As for its roots, clematis prefer well-drained, moist soil with a pH that is neutral to slightly alkaline. Prep soil that is more on the acidic side by periodically “sweetening” it with wood ash or a little limestone. Clematis are climbing plants that naturally grow upward instead of growing out like most traditional plants. In order to grow upward at its maximum height, they need support to facilitate their growth.  Bird netting offers a nearly visible means of climbing support to clematis plants. Attach it to something in your garden with a staple or a fastener to prevent it from collapse over the years of the clematis plant's growth.  Consider installing garden structures, like arbors or pergolas, which offer beauty and regality to your garden while providing support for clematis to scale. Add some bird wire between the ground and the first rung of the arbor to help young clematis grab and climb up more easily.  Allow them to climb on a rock wall in your yard by planting them near there. Purchase some wire to help them gain access to being able to scale the wall over time.  A trellis is also a common choice to place in gardens and are often inexpensive, little hassle options for helping the clematis climb. Adding some netting over the trellis can make it even easier for the clematis to hold on. If you have the room, cultivars that grow to be 10-20 feet vines might be what you're looking for. For smaller gardens or potted plants, a more compact variety of clematis might be your preference. Standard clematis flowers blossom with a measurement of 5-6 inches across.  Clematis flowers come in smaller blossoms and larger blossoms in different colors like white, wine red, lavender, deep purple, and even yellow.  Because the growth of the vine can take years to reach maturity, it is advised to purchase a clematis that is at least two years in age to shorten the wait. Look for a container-grown plant that's in a quart or gallon-size pot and robust in growth.

Problem: Article: When you cook recipes that were designed for other cooking methods, you may have to make some adjustments to cook them in the microwave. That includes omitting the oil from recipes that call for meat or vegetables to be seared or browned in a pan with oil. Foods don’t brown in the microwave the way they do in a pan, so the oil is unnecessary, and may change the flavor of the dish. Less evaporation occurs in the microwave than with other cooking methods, so you need less water. When you cook a recipe in the microwave that wasn’t designed for the microwave, reduce the liquid in the recipe by about one-half. This includes soups, stews, and other recipes that have water as an ingredient. Cooking food in the microwave brings out the flavor of any spices you use, so you don’t need as much salt, herbs, and seasonings. To adjust recipes, cut the salt and seasoning quantities in half. Before serving your dish, test it for flavor and add more spices if necessary. Microwaves also cook food faster than other methods do, so you'll need to adjust the cooking time for non-microwave recipes. A good rule of thumb is to cut the cooking time by a quarter. After that time, test the food for doneness, and add more time if necessary.
Summary: Don’t use oil to brown foods. Decrease liquids by half. Cut seasonings in half. Cut your cooking time by a quarter.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Hanging the item from a drying rack is also acceptable. Make sure the fabric is completely dry before using or wearing your felt item.  Do not let the felt air-dry in direct sunlight, as this can be damaging to the fabric. If all else fails, take your fabric to a dry cleaner to be cleaned by a professional.

SUMMARY: Lay the felt out flat and allow to air-dry in a cool place.

Some career service advisors recommend keeping your self-introductory speech as short as two or three sentences. Others suggest aiming for five to seven minutes in length. If it is not possible to make your speech this short, or if time permits you to give a longer introduction, you should still trim down your speech to be as concise, yet informative, as possible.  Make sure that if this is an assignment, you stay within the assigned guidelines. If your speech is supposed to be 3-5 minutes, a 7-minute speech and a 2-minute speech are equally inappropriate. If you are giving a brief introductory speech in an interview, be certain that you don't go over the recommended time. Remember that your speech is going to be spoken out loud, and your audience will not be able to go back and re-read your words if something is confusing. Deliver your speech in such a way that no one will be uncertain of what you are trying to say.  Avoid long rambling sentences, and use direct and concise prose as much as possible. Think about your sentence structure carefully. Reading your speech out loud will help you determine when you have overly long sentences that need to be restructured. You should run through your speech out loud well before the actual introduction. Practice different inflections and experiment with how you pace yourself during the speech. You can practice alone by reading at first, but to get some feedback it's a good idea to perform the speech in front of a friend, family member or colleague.  Practicing in front of other people will enable you to gauge whether your speech captures the interest of your listeners. Think about which parts of the speech were successful and which parts weren't. Try to get as much detailed feedback as possible by asking specific as well as general questions after your speech.  As well as saying "how did you like the speech?", ask specifically what parts were the strongest and weakest. Check that you delivered a clear message by asking your practice audience what they took away from the speech. Know what you're going to say, and how you're going to say it, well in advance. Although in some instances it is common practice to read from a piece of paper, try to memorize your speech and read it with minimal prompts. Presenting without reading a paper can create a stronger impression of control, knowledge and confidence. It will also help keep your audience's attention.  If you are staring down at a piece of paper all the time, the audience might struggle to truly engage with what you are saying. You can, however, bring an index card with bullet points, just in case you freeze up. You shouldn't write your whole speech on the card, just the main points you hope to cover. Think of the card as a point of reference, rather than a backup for your speech.
