Many of us have heard it before, the familiar click click,click of a dead car. When you hear that click, your battery is likely low or dead says Gene Ross, manager of Jiffy Lube, 2415 Iowa. To jump-start your vehicle, Ross says to begin by connecting jumper cables to the battery that was dead first. Connect the red jumper cable to the positive terminal on the battery and then the black cable to the negative terminal. Start the vehicle with the live battery and then connect the jumper cables to that vehicle: red to positive first and then black to negative. Start the car with the dead battery and let the car run five to 10 minutes to charge before unhooking the cables in the same order you hooked them up. Be careful to keep the cable ends separate from each other because they may spark if they touch. If the vehicle still doesn't start, Ross says make sure the cables are hooked tight to the battery terminals and let the car charge longer before trying to start it.

2. Unroll a little of the paper. Put the box in the middle and fold the paper to cover it. Cut along the fold.
It's always more fun to tear open a nicely wrapped present than one that's just been thrown in a box. To make your presents prettier, here are some tips to becoming a wrapping expert.
1. Put the gift in a box. Choose your paper and a bow or ribbon.
3. With the measured paper print side down, place the box in the mid dle.
4. Fold the paper lengthwise and tape the edges together.
5. Push the paper in on the sides forming two paper triangles; one on top and one on bottom. Tape the sides to the box
6. Fold along the square edge of each triangle and tape them to the box. One points up and one points down. Do the same on the second side.
and repeat on the other side.
*For a more finished look, before you wrap, fold over all raw edges to create a "hem".
7. Turn the present seam-side down, and tape on a bow or ribbon.
