Diffused Forks

I don't understand the white balance problem here. That's only the beginning of my Strobist headaches!

 

"As for exposure, try this method as a way to start to learn to light without a flash meter. Shoot in a normally lit, indoor room. Set your ASA on 200 and your camera at your normal max synch speed. For most of you, this will be somewhere between 1/125th and 1/500th. Set your aperture on f/5.6.

 

Start with your flash on manual at, say, 1/16th power, about five feet away from your subject."

 

I can't get close to this supposed starting place. Adjust the aperature to correct? I end up having to adjust the shutter speed to extremely slow speeds. Very frustrated!!!
