Don’t know what resolution to choose? Locate “Preset” and click on the drop-down menu. The menu is divided up into four sections, respectively: web settings, standard definition broadcast settings (NTSC and PAL), HD settings (the most commonly used), and film settings.

Consider using a disposable mixing bowl and disposable spoon (or spatula to mix your plaster, since it’s difficult to wash off of dishes. Tap the sides of your container periodically as you sprinkle in plaster powder. This helps disperse the powder and eliminate air bubbles.

Landscaping glass or “cullet” (recycled industrial glass) is perfect for making sea glass. Sea glass is mostly known for its blue, turquoise, and green shades, but you can tumble any color of glass you’d like. It’s not recommended to break glass yourself for tumbling. Not only is this dangerous, but it’ll produce small shards of uneven sea glass. If you have a large quantity of rough you want to transform into sea glass, it may be necessary to tumble it in multiple batches....

Decide how low you want to top of the spat to go from the top of the shoe. In this model, the top of the spat will hang slightly lower than the top of the shoe.

On the parts of the boot where the two segments of leather are sewn together (front and back), a half-inch seam allowance is necessary to create leeway....

Do not use confectioner’s sugar (powdered sugar). This usually contains cornstarch, which does not dissolve in water. The syrup will be cloudy or grainy. A more concentrated syrup has a higher risk of crystallizing back into solids, but will last longer in the fridge.

Plum tomatoes work well for this recipe, but any variety of summer tomato can be used. Smaller tomatoes generally have a sweeter, lighter taste, while larger varieties have a richer flavor. For the most complex flavor to your paste, use several varieties of tomatoes. For a smoother paste, try seeding your tomatoes before finely chopping them. If you don’t have a food mill to separate out the skins and seeds, you can easily remove the skins by blanching your tomatoes....

If your piping needs to go around corners, you’ll want to add an inch (2. 5cm) per corner to the total length of fabric and cord you’ll need.

You don’t need to worry about color or pattern when choosing your cord, since it will be covered by fabric....

Older or arthritic dogs may feel more comfortable with a memory foam mattress. Orthopedic dog beds: Orthopedic dog beds are long mattresses that provide orthopedic support.

Try to go outside every day, weather permitting. While this may not be possible every day, the more sun exposure your hair receives, the more blonde it becomes. You can go for a walk, lay out on the beach, or ride a bike, for example. If you live somewhere that is warm and sunny year-round, you can do this at any time of year, not just in the summer. You may need more lemon juice for longer hair....

Try talking to her about school, your friends, what you’re feeling, etc. Ask her to go to the mall, the movies, for a walk, etc. If you get a good grade, be sure to show her! If you’re not doing well in school, show her how hard you’re trying by doing your homework where she can see you, or by signing up for tutoring. Letting your industriousness surprise your mom is better than telling her how great you are for doing your chores....

The most successful logos use bold lines and dynamic shapes. Think the Pepsi logo, the Nike logo, or the Batman symbol. Remember: if someone can’t remember what you’re product is called when they describe it to people, they’re probably going to say something like, “Go to the blank aisle and you’ll see it on the shelf: it’s the thing in the purple package with the cool, white swirly design”. Most products can easily benefit from a Facebook page or Facebook ads....

The first number is the glasses’ lens width, the second is the glasses’ bridge width, and the third is the glasses’ temple-arm length. If your glasses don’t have this information printed, you’ll need to find those measurements with a ruler. In most pairs of glasses, the lens width can vary between 35–60 millimetres (1. 4–2. 4 in). Although the lenses themselves are convex, you do not need to add any extra length to the lens measurements to compensate for the curved lens....

Start by deciding what area you’re going to look at: internal communications and external communications are the two main categories. Next, target a specific area within the category you want to evaluate, such as emails, social media outreach, a marketing campaign, or an informational campaign.

Take care not to discard small cloves of garlic that may be hidden within the peel. [1] X Research source Most recipes will indicate the number of cloves, or bulbs, required. If not, one medium-sized clove usually gives about one tablespoon of minced garlic. [2] X Research source...
