Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Determine the bond's series. Look for the date of issue. Figure out the bond's face value. Identify the serial number.

Answer: The bond's series indicates the type and nature of the savings bond. Currently, the active bond series include E, EE, and I bonds. This information can be found in the upper right-hand corner of the bond certificate. If you purchased your bond on Treasury Direct, this information will be available in your account.  If you're having trouble locating this information, the U.S. Treasury has provided a diagram to help paper savings bondholders find it. Visit https://www.treasurydirect.gov/indiv/help/bc/bc_savings_diagram.htm to see it. E bonds were last issued in 1980 as 30-year bonds, so most E bonds should have been cashed in already. If you have an E bond you can still cash it in; however, note that interest would only accrue through the active life of the bond, which ended in 2010. HH and H series bonds are no longer in use and their current value cannot be calculated. The issue date indicates the month and year that the bond was issued. This information can be found on the right side of the bond certificate, between the series and serial number. This section may also include information regarding where the bond was purchased. The bond's face value, or denomination, represents how much the bond can be cashed in for before interest is added in. This information is the number if the top left-hand section of the bond certificate. The serial number, shown in the bottom right corner of the bond certificate, identifies your bond. This information is not required for calculating the bond's value. However, it must be recorded in case the bond certificate is damaged or lost.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify the hair you want to trim. Run a comb through a small section of hair. Cut into the hair at an angle. Use small, quick snips. Work slowly and deliberately.

Answer: For basic utilitarian bangs, you can clip evenly from one side to the other, beginning with the hair just in front of the temples. If you're cutting around a side part or going for more of a tapered style, plan to adjust the length of your hair accordingly around the forehead and ears. Having a specific style goal will allow you to decide where the most hair needs to be trimmed.  Shoot for an appropriate length and shape that frames your face and highlights your strongest features.  Keep in mind that your hair will have a tendency to drape where it's longest. Stop the comb just short of the ends, so that only about half an inch of strands are exposed. The comb will act similarly to the guard on an electric razor, preventing scissor-related accidents and giving you greater control over the outcome of the cut.  Lift the hair up and away from the scalp as you snip. Use a fine-toothed comb to grab and hold more hair. Cutting a section of hair straight across can result in an awkward blunted look. This is the last thing you want to do to the hair that highlights your face. Instead, hold the scissors perpendicularly to the comb and chop at the ends of the hair using the tip.  Cutting at an angle decreases weight and produces lighter, more textured layers which make the hair appear fuller. Make sure to get the ends of each section of hair down to the same length. Unlike cutting a piece of paper, where you use the entire length of the scissor blades as the cutting surface, when cutting hair you want to keep your movements conservative. Aim to take off just a little bit of hair with each pass. You're much less likely to make mistakes than you would be by hacking off huge chunks with long, sawing strokes. Try not to remove more than about a quarter inch of hair at a time. Don't get in too big of a rush while trimming your bangs. Start with the front and top of the crown, then work your way around to the sides, making sure everything is even and symmetrical. Cut a little bit at a time, then review your progress in the mirror. It's important to remember that once the hair is gone, you can't put it back.  Err on the side of caution. You may be shocked by how big a difference a couple centimeters can make. Be patient. It's better to trim slowly and carefully than to try to go too quickly.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Consider if you are able to work some odd jobs. Think about services you can offer for money. Use your talents. Sell your knowledge. Decide how much to charge for your items or services. Advertise.

Answer:
If you have the time and permission, you might be able to work on the side or “under the table.” While these jobs typically don't have the long-term commitment that comes from traditional employment (or the regular paycheck), that can still be a good way to earn some extra money. If you are too young or don't have the time to take on a regular job, work on the side can still be lucrative. People need help doing all sorts of things, so you don't necessarily need to have a lot of experience or talent to make money from odd jobs. Common tasks people are willing to hire teens for include:   Babysitting (It will help to pass a CPR class or other certification, or to know parents with kids) Dog walking Pet sitting Plant sitting (watering and caring for plants while their owners are away) Yardwork (mowing, raking, trimming hedges, clearing yards, shoveling snow, cleaning gutters, etc.) Picking up groceries or run other errands for the elderly Doing chores for others (cleaning house, doing dishes, clearing out an attic, etc.) Washing cars Helping people pack and/or move If you have a special ability or talent, you might be able to make money by using it. Performances, artwork, clothing and many other expressive outlets can be ways of bringing in some cash. For instance, you could make money by:  Busking (singing, playing an instrument, juggling, etc. on a street; make sure it is one where lots of people walk by, and where you have permission to perform) Singing at weddings Performing at parties (making balloon animals, doing magic tricks, etc.) Making T-Shirts Selling baked goods, candy, lemonade, etc. Woodworking (furniture, birdhouses, etc.) Selling crafts you make (art, knitted or sewn items, etc.) on sites such as Etsy, at craft fairs and farmers' markets, etc. If you have knowledge of a subject or ability that is in demand, you might be able to make money by using it to help others, or by teaching others.  If you are knowledgeable about technology, you could try helping others with computer problems for money. If you do well in school, you could earn money by tutoring students in subjects (math, science, foreign languages, history, writing, etc.) If you are knowledgeable in an area such as music or swimming, you could give lessons to others for money. If you can prove your knowledge or ability, you will have an easier time making money from it. For instance, if you want to tutor students, you should mention your high grades in the subject(s) you offer. Likewise, if want to teach music lessons, you should mention how many years you have studied, and/or your accomplishments in the area. You can set a price for your items that is based either on market demand, or what you think they are worth. If offering services, you will have to decide if you will choose a flat fee or request payment by the hour.  For instance, you might charge a flat fee of $100 to mow a neighbor's yard, or $25 per hour to do it; you can earn more charging by the hour in this case if it takes more than four hours to mow the lawn. You will also need to find people with tasks that need doing, or let them know about services you offer. For instance, you could have parents or adult friends spread the word, post an advertisement on a bulletin board or online, or go door-to-door in your neighborhood). You can also post a list of things you are offering to help with, such as babysitting, yardwork, or tutoring.
