BAKING (TLE11)




Baking is the technique of prolonged cooking of food by dry heat acting by convection, and not by radiation, normally in an oven, but also in hot ashes, or on hot stones.[1] It is primarily used for the preparation of bread, cakes, pastries and pies, tarts, quiches, cookies and crackers. Such items are sometimes referred to as "baked goods," and are sold at a bakery. A person who prepares baked goods as a profession is called a baker. It is also used for the preparation of baked potatoes, baked apples, baked beans, some casseroles and pasta dishes such as lasagna, and various other foods, such as the pretzel.

History in BakingIn ancient history, the first evidence of baking occurred when humans took wild grass grains, soaked them in water, and mixed everything together, mashing it into a kind of broth-like paste. The paste was cooked by pouring it onto a flat, hot rock, resulting in a bread-like substance. Later, this paste was roasted on hot embers, which made bread-making easier, as it could now be made anytime fire was created. Around 2500 B.C., records show that the Egyptians had bread, and may have learned the process from the Babylonians. The Greek Aristophanes, around 400 B.C., also recorded information that showed that tortes with patterns and honey flans existed in Greek cuisine. Dispyrus was also created by the Greeks around that time and widely popular; was a donut-like bread made from flour and honey and shaped in a ring; soaked in wine, it was eaten when hot. The first evidence of stone ovens was in Italy, where they made pizza and pasta

Food 1-Food Selection, Preparation & Cooking (TLE10)


Food Selection As far as Food Selection is concerned, you need a high protein and a low carbohydrate diet to facilitate great abs. Most people make the mistake of thinking that keeping their fat low is the most important component. This is not true!!food preparation is the act of preparing foodstuffs for consumption. Many types of food preparation involve heating the food ingredients, however other types of preparation involve chemical, biological, or mechanical means.

Cooking is the process of preparing food by applying heat. Cooks select and combine ingredients using a wide range of tools and methods. In the process, the flavor, texture, appearance, and chemical properties of the ingredients can change. Cooking techniques and ingredients vary widely across the world, reflecting unique environmental, economic, and cultural traditions. Cooks themselves also vary widely in skill and training. Preparing food with heat or fire is an activity unique to humans, and some scientists believe the advent of cooking played an important role in human evolution.[1] Most anthropologists believe that cooking fires first developed around 250,000 years ago. The development of agriculture, commerce and transportation between civilizations in different regions offered cooks many new ingredients. New inventions and technologies, such as pottery for holding and boiling water, expanded cooking techniques. Some modern cooks apply advanced scientific techniques to food preparation

My best choice:This is my best choice, because people can serve a better food for the society, having this reciepy.

METALWORKS AND WELDING


Metalworking is the process of working with metals to create individual parts, assemblies, or large scale structures. The term covers a wide range of work from large ships and bridges to precise engine parts and delicate jewellery. It therefore includes a correspondingly wide range of skills, processes, and tools.

LAMP MAKING

MATERIALS:

LAMP
WIRE
CUTTER
BOLB
VOLT
KNOTS
ELECTRICAL TAPE

STEPS:

1. Prepare the piece so it will stand up where you want it and run the wire to power the bulb. This might involve mounting the item on some kind of stand or base and then drilling a hole through the lamp to run the wire. If you do not want to drill a hole for a wire or cannot drill it, you can still make the lamp and have the wire run on the outside of it from the socket to the plug.

· Wiring kits that include the lamp socket, lamp cord and plug are available from most hardware stores, or you can buy each part separately (may be necessary if you need a long cord). For most lamps, you will want to buy a #18 size cord.
· If wiring the plug and the lamp socket yourself, notice that the attachment points (usually two screws) are different colors. The white or shiny screw is the neutral and should go to the widest prong on the plug. The other screw is usually a darker color.

2. Mount the lamp socket base to your lamp. Usually it will mount to your lamp by way of a small threaded pipe. You must secure this small pipe to your lamp in some way; usually by drilling a hole and gluing or screwing the pipe into the lamp. They also sell long threaded pipes for lamps that can be run completely through the lamp and attached on both ends with a tightening bolt.

3. "Fish" the wire through the lamp. Sometimes a coat hanger that has been cut and straightened will help in "fishing" the wire through. It is important that all components of the lamp be mounted (except the top of the lamp socket shell) before you run the wire. If you are not going to fish the wire through the lamp, they do sell sockets that allow the lamp cord to come through the bottom part of the socket shell.

4. Attach the plug to the wire, making sure the "ridged" wire goes to the wider prong on the plug. Some plugs are made so you just stick the wire into a hole and close a lever. Some plugs require you to physically attach the wires to screws.

To attach wires to screw terminals, you must first take off a little insulation to expose the actual conducting wire. This is called "stripping" the wire. The hardware sells inexpensive wire strippers or you can do it with a knife. Just be sure you do not cut any of the wires inside the insulation.
· Notice that the wire in lamp cord consists of many fine wires for the two main conductors. After you strip the insulation off of the wires, twist these fine wires tight for each conductor. You should end up with two tightly wrapped conductors. The two conductors should be separated enough to allow them to be connected to the screw terminals.

· Notice that the two screw terminals tighten by turning them clockwise. The twisted tight conductors are wrapped around the screw for at least 180 degrees and the wrap goes in the direction of clockwise so that when the screws are tightened, it pulls the wire toward the screw, not away from it.
· Reassemble both the plug and the socket as necessary, making sure there is no excess wire sticking out that can short to the other conductor. If any of the wires from one conductor touch the other conductor, you will have a "short." You do not want that. It can shock you or cause a fire

5. Attach a shade to your lamp. Shades attach several ways; but the most common is via a mounting bracket that goes below the lamp socket and a heavy wire harness (harp) that attaches to the mounting bracket and has a mount for a lampshade.

clothing and grooming


CLOTHING AND GROOMING

Clothing performs important social and cultural functions. A uniform, for example, may identify civil authority figures, such as police and army personnel, or it may identify team, group or political affiliations. In many societies, norms about clothing reflect standards of modesty, religion, gender, and social status. Clothing may also function as a form of adornment and an expression of personal taste or style.


Ladies Skirt

Tools and Materials needed:
1½ meter cloth
thread
sewing machine
cutting tool
measuring tools
pencil

Procedure:

Step 1 Take a measurement of the person for whom you are making the skirt. Essentially, you will require waist and length measurements. Such skirts look best long, when knee-length or longer, so take a measurement accordingly.

Step 2 Pick the fabric of your choice from your favorite store and cut it as per the measurement, This step can be as slow as you need. The cutting has to be done while keeping some buffer fabric for the sewing. So make sure you make no mistakes there.

Step 3 Now sew the skirt. Try keeping a nice pattern at the bottom. You could try an arc or a downward facing triangle. You can try experimenting, but try not to go overboard. Leave the top 3 inches on one side unstitched. You can put a button or Velcro seal at this part. This is to aid the wearing comfort.

Step 4 Now we start of with making this skirt a "poodle skirt". Take a print out of a poodle on an iron-on-paper.

Step 5 Place the paper face down on the skirt and iron on it. This will leave the poodle's image on the skirt. Be careful at this step. Make sure you place the picture in the right place, no mistakes allowed here.

Step 6 You can add a few embellishments like sparkle or straps or laces to make the skirt look cuter. The beauty of making your own skirt is that you can make just the way you like it!

My best choice: this is my best choice, because in making YOU CAN MAKE WOMAN SEXIER.

HANDICRAFT (TLE51)


Handicraft, also known as craft work or simply craft, is a type of work where useful and decorative devices are made completely by hand or using only simple tools. Usually the term is applied to traditional means of making goods. The individual artisanship of the items is a paramount criterion, such items often have cultural and/or religious significance. Items made by mass production or machines are not handicrafts.

LANTERN MAKING

MATERIALS:

1. glue
2. japanese paper
3. scissor
4. wire

STEPS:

1. Decide on a shape for your lantern. Unless you are exceptionally skilled at making wire forms, you’ll need a guide. If you want a round lantern, find a ball or bowl of an appropriate size. If you want a polygonal lantern, you can easily make a form by mounting wooden dowels in your desired shape.

2. Make the wire form. Once you have your form, begin by carefully wrapping the wire once around the bottom end. Be sure to leave some free wire at the end. The amount will depend on the size of lantern you are making, but you can plan to leave about the amount it would take to go around the bottom of your wire frame one and a half times. Continue wrapping around your frame in a spiral until you get to the top.

3. Make the bases. Using the extra wire at the bottom, shape a base. Bend the wire at a ninety-degree angle starting where you began wrapping. Make another ninety-degree bend in the same direction a short distance away. This length will be the height of your base. Shape the wire into a mirror image of the shape at the bottom of your lantern. You may also want to reinforce the base with extra wires connecting the top and bottom of the base.

4. Repeat at the top. Make an identical base at the top, but leave some extra wire. There should be a piece of wire crossing directly from one side of the base to the other. You will hang your light here. You can bend another piece of wire into an arc so it attaches here. This will allow you to hang the lantern from a hook.

5. Check for stability. Are there any weak parts in your frame? You will now reinforce it by adding straight pieces of wire connecting the two bases. Solder them in place wherever they touch another wire.

6. Cut paper panels. If you used a polygonal frame, this will be relatively simple because your paper will roughly be rectangular. If you used a round frame, you'll have to figure out the proper shape. Decide how many panels you want to use. If you use 10 panels, at the top it will be 1/10th of the diameter of the top base, the middle will be 1/10th of the diameter of the middle and the bottom 1/10th of the diameter at the bottom. If you are unsure of your calculations, hold them up to the lantern to double check. Cut the panels slightly large in every direction so they can overlap.
