How To: Check Your Heart Rate on Any Android Phone

Samsung created quite a buzz when it debuted a built-in heart rate sensor on the Galaxy S5 back in 2014, but amazingly, not many other manufacturers decided to follow suit.

How To: Make Naturally Colored Pasta with Beets, Spinach, Squid Ink, & More

Although pasta is a remarkably simple dish, I find it to be one of the most aesthetically appealing foods.

If you save scraps of yarn, and have a dog, this is an easy project for you. The Mobius scarf has the advantage of not having any ends to come untied, or dangle down for your dog to trip over, or get tangled in branches and stuff. I made this one for Pepper, my 16lb rat terrier. Step 1: Choose Your Yarn: I had very little yarn to work with. I had one more ball, but it had just a little more on it than the largest shown here.
