			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We humans are always fascinated by levitation from centuries. While many questioned the real levitation process, no one has ever doubted the magical levitation. In this article we will discuss 2 different ways to levitate yourself in the air.</p>
<p><strong>How to levitate</strong> (method 1 used by David Blaine):</p>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong></p>
<p>Stand in front of your audience keeping your back towards them. Make sure your audience can only see you at 45 degree angle and your back of your left foot.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong></p>
<p>Step on your right toes and lift your right heel in the air. At the same time, you should be able to lift your entire left foot of the ground. While lifting the left foot, make sure the back of the right foot heel is being lifted at the same time to give the perfect illusion to audience.<br />
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Au7-b77hBCE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Au7-b77hBCE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>How to levitate</strong> (method 2 used by Chris Angel):</p>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong></p>
<p>Cut a pair of pant (only one side) in the front from top to bottom.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong></p>
<p>Take a tape and attach a single pair of shoe with the bottom of that cut side of the pant.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3</strong></p>
<p>Use a sting to tie the both shoes together, even the one you are going to wear. You can use shoe string from the step 2 since you will not going to wear that shoe to do this magic trick.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong></p>
<p>Stand in front of audience keeping your back towards them wearing the pant you have just created. Make sure you have  something in front of you to step on while you are going to perform the magic.</p>
<p><strong>Step 5</strong></p>
<p>Put your foot (the one with fake shoe) on the tool or chair for support and lift your other foot in the air. While you are lifting you real foot in the air, it will also lift your fake foot with shoe. It will give audience the illusion that you are putting together your both feet and levitate yourself in the air.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You’re not alone who doesn’t know how to make a paper airplane. I used to make paper airplanes as a kid all the time, but I remember when I didn’t know how to make them. It’s very simple, just grab a piece of paper and follow these step-by-step instructions on how to make a paper airplane.</p>
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong><br />
Get yourself a regular size piece of white paper. I like grabbing the printer paper because they do the job quite well. They are a good size and weight for flying.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong><br />
Place your paper on a table or hard surface. Have one of the longest edges towards you.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong><br />
Folder the piece of paper in half lengthwise. Match up your two edges and use your thumb for make a crease along the fold.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong><br />
Fold the upper left corner of the top layer diagonally towards the first crease.  Use your thumb to make a sharp fold. You should have created a small triangular flap.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-325" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.4-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.4-120X120" width="120" height="120" /><br />
<a title="&quot;#jsArticleStepImageCredit4&quot; " href="http://i.ehow.com/images/a00/00/q7/make-paper-airplane-1.4-800X800.jpg"></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong><br />
Turn the piece of paper over.</p>
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong><br />
Take the other top corner flap and fold it towards the middle crease. Your edges should match up and create a nice fold.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-326" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.6-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.6-120X120" width="120" height="120" /><br />
<a title="&quot;#jsArticleStepImageCredit6&quot; " href="http://i.ehow.com/images/a00/00/q7/make-paper-airplane-1.6-800X800.jpg"></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong><br />
Take your new diagonal edge on the right side of the paper, and fold that straight down towards the first crease you had made. Make a sharp crease along the new fold.<br />
<a title="&quot;#jsArticleStepImageCredit7&quot; " href="http://i.ehow.com/images/a00/00/q7/make-paper-airplane-1.7-800X800.jpg"></a><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-327" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.7-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.7-120X120" width="120" height="120" /></p>
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong><br />
Turn over your paper and fold the diagonal edge down towards the very first crease. Your paper should look like a triangle with a 90 degree angle. Check out the picture.<br />
<a title="&quot;#jsArticleStepImageCredit8&quot; " href="http://i.ehow.com/images/a00/00/q7/make-paper-airplane-1.8-800X800.jpg"></a><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-328" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.8-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.8-120X120" width="120" height="120" /></p>
<p><strong>Step 9:</strong><br />
Form your airplane’s wings by repeating steps 7 and 8.<br />
<a title="&quot;#jsArticleStepImageCredit9&quot; " href="http://i.ehow.com/images/a00/00/q7/make-paper-airplane-1.9-800X800.jpg"></a><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-329" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.9-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.9-120X120" width="120" height="120" /></p>
<p><strong>Step 10:</strong><br />
Hold the paper airplaine in one hand along the first crease, flare your wings out.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-330" src="http://howtown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/make-paper-airplane-1.12-120X120.jpg" alt="make-paper-airplane-1.12-120X120" width="120" height="120" /></p>
<p><strong>Step 11:</strong><br />
Hold the airplane near the nose and get ready to throw it in the air.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people would go out and buy glue at the store, but you can also make your own glue. There are many ways to make glue; just follow my steps and you will be golden.</p>
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong><br />
Pour a cup of skim milk inside a bowl and add four tablespoons of vinegar. Stir the mixture and let that sit around for two minutes. You should notice the vinegar makes the milk form curds.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong><br />
Strain the whey or liquid from the curds. Get yourself a paper towel over a large cup and attach that to it with a rubber band. Now make that towel dip a little bit by pushing down in the middle of it.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong><br />
Grab the remaining curds and place them all onto the paper towel that you setup. Slightly press from the top of them with a second paper towel. This will remove the remaining liquid from the surface of the curds.</p>
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong><br />
Place the slightly moist curds into a small bowl. Add 2 teaspoons of baking soda and four teaspoons of water to it. If your mixture is too thick, add some water too it.</p>
<p>You just learnt how to make glue!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Drawing can be both entertaining and fun at the same time. In this article we will discuss how to draw a rose easily. This might not be a real rose flower for your Valentine but sure it will impress many people.</p>
<p><span id="more-174"></span></p>
<p><strong>Step#1</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_8" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 235px"><strong><strong><a href="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/how-to-draw-a-rose.gif"><img class="size-medium wp-image-8 " title="How to draw a rose step 1" src="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/how-to-draw-a-rose-281x300.gif" alt="How to draw a rose step 1" width="225" height="240" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">How to draw a rose step 1</p></div>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>First, we need to draw a swirl at the center of a piece of paper. If you want a rose bud along with a rose (optional), draw a smaller swirl upward to the first swirl.  Make sure you keep some space around both of them. If you would like to draw color rose, you still should draw it in black and white at the beginning just to practice. Besides, the use of color darkness can be easily learned this way too.</p>
<p><strong>Step#2</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_10" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 185px"><strong><strong><a href="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose2.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-10" title="How to draw a rose step 2" src="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose2-175x300.jpg" alt="How to draw a rose step 2" width="175" height="300" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">How to draw a rose step 2</p></div>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Now, add few petals to the main rose and the bud (if you started with 2 swirl at step 1 and want a rose bud). In this example we added 3 petals per rose. But remember to keep those lines short because they will go down to meet bottom row of petals. At this point you can darken some lines, top area to create shade. Keep the drawing area free of dust and touch.</p>
<p><strong>Step#3</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_12" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 190px"><strong><strong><a href="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-12" title="How to draw a rose step 3" src="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose3-180x300.jpg" alt="How to draw a rose step 3" width="180" height="300" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">How to draw a rose step 3</p></div>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>In step 3, we will draw more petals and add those top lines with bottom row petals. You can follow our drawing and practice the structure of a rose or use you own imagination (following is better at the beginning stage).  Since we drew both a full rose and Rose bud, you will be able to see how different they are in sense of petal formation. There are often dip in the middle of a petal, sometimes it turns over out. After we will add sepals to the bud on the top, some leaves for both Rose and Rose bud. This is almost finishing of the basic Rose drawing. Now it is matter of darkening some lines and provide it a better finishing.</p>
<p><strong>Step#4</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_13" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 190px"><strong><strong><a href="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose4.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-13" title="How to draw a rose step 4" src="http://howtodrawarose.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/rose4-180x300.jpg" alt="How to draw a rose step 4" width="180" height="300" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">How to draw a rose step 4</p></div>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>You can gently use cotton swabs or rubber erasers to give shades in different location of the Rose.</p>
