Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Visit the websites of your favorite game shows. Check out when they’re coming to your area. Sign up for an audition slot or make a tape. Prep yourself! Rock the in-person audition. Get called to be on the show.

Answer: Game shows are constantly looking for contestants. Do a quick search online to see how each of your favorite game shows work. Should you send in a tape? Put your name into a lottery? Get an in-person audition? All the information you need should be available online. Take a look at their contestant requirements, too. You may need to be a certain age, not be related to anyone on the staff, live in a certain area, etc. It's best to know this now than to waste time later. Some game shows travel the country like certain reality TV shows (think American Idol and American Ninja Warrior). They'll visit X amount of bigger cities looking for hopeful contestants. And they could be coming near you. For example, Wheel of Fortune has the "Wheelmobile." They also accept tape auditions, but they tour the country in a large yellow van with this catchy name. If they are coming near you, decide one way or the other how you want to audition. You may have two options in front of you: attending an actual audition or making a tape and sending it in. If you do want to go in person, you may have to sign up for a slot to reserve your time. Do this as soon as possible to be sure there's room for you. And as for the tape, send that in sooner rather than later, too. Show your stuff, making sure to emphasize how camera-friendly you are, how comfortable you are being in the spotlight, and something that makes you memorable. Make sure to meet their taped-audition guidelines, too. Anyone about to go on Wheel of Fortune or Jeopardy (or any other game show) doesn't spend their free time before their audition on Facebook and playing Candy Crush. They're doing word puzzles and trivia games. They're honing their skills so they don't wind up looking like a doofus. And that's what you should be doing too, whether you're in a stage one audition or you've made it all the way to the finals. Watch old reruns of the show, too, to get in the zone. You'll get used to all the potential formats and you may even run into similar (or the same) questions. Immerse yourself in it as much as possible so you stay comfortable when the time rolls around. Once you're signed up and in the room (or they liked your tape and called you in), nervously drinking the bottle of water you've been handed, all you can do is rock it. Be friendly to the judges and other contestants, ask questions, and come off as a lively, intrigued, interesting human being. The rest is just up to the questions and tasks you get presented. Most auditions have rounds. They'll cut people round by round and you'll know exactly who they're cutting. The great part about game shows is that there isn't much waiting. If you make it, you'll likely know it. If you make it through all the rounds, you'll likely get put into a pool of eventual contestants. It could take you two weeks to get called, it could take you six months to get called. It's just a matter of pairing people up and filling up the oncoming weeks of airtime. Be patient! The call is coming. They'll likely give you advanced notice, too, so don't fret about getting it off work or not being ready to make the trip. And if you can't make the date, they'll probably be flexible. They need viable contestants and you've proved yourself – unless you prove to be difficult to work with, they'll try their best to accommodate you.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Plan your escape route ahead of time. Practice your escape plan and safety rules with children often. Test your escape plan to be sure it works well. Make sure the last person leaving each room closes the door after exiting. Choose a safe place outside the home where family members can meet.

Answer: Fire spreads quickly, and there may be no time during a fire to figure out an escape route.  If bedrooms are on the second floor, be sure an escape ladder is near the window in each room. Designate 2 escape routes out of each room. When you prepare children, they are generally less frightened and can better remember what you taught them.  Walk your children through each escape route. Have them practice opening doors and pulling up windows to be certain they can easily handle these tasks. If you have older children with bedrooms on the second floor, have them practice exiting safely through the window using the escape ladder.  This will help to slow the fire, giving family members a little extra time to get out safely. This can be a neighbor's front yard, your mailbox or another safe location.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: See if your vape pen has an integrated or removable battery. Hook your vape pen up to its charger using the included USB cable. Wait for the battery to finish charging completely. Watch for the red light that tells you it's time to recharge your battery.

Answer: You can usually find this information in the users manual or instruction booklet that came with your vape pen. Integrated batteries typically take the form of an elongated tube or cylinder (which attaches to the cartridge, or the part that heats the e-liquid), whereas removable batteries are housed inside casing of the pen itself.  The majority of vape pens use “510-Thread” batteries, which have a universal design that makes them compatible with different cartridges.  Your vape pen’s battery may feature colors, text, or other markings distinguishing it from the cartridge. First, plug the AC adapter into a nearby electrical outlet. Then, insert the large end of the USB cable into the adapter and connect the smaller end to the corresponding port in your pen. Depending on the model you’re using, you may need to unscrew the battery from the cartridge in order to access the charging port.  Always use the charger and cable that came packaged with your vape pen. Different units sometimes run on higher voltages, and too much juice could cause your pen to overheat or even explode.  Never attempt to charge your vape pen with a laptop, mobile phone, or any other device that could potentially be damaged in the event of a short or surge. Charging times for different batteries can vary from 1-4 hours. You’ll know your battery is fully charged when the indicator light turns green or begins blinking steadily. On certain models, the charging light will shut off when the battery reaches 100%.  Situate your vape pen away from any nearby flammable objects (such as blankets or upholstered furniture) while it’s charging to reduce the risk of fire related to overheating.  Once your battery is fully charged, remove it from the charger unit and screw it back onto the cartridge to begin vaping again. When you’ve depleted your vape pen’s battery to a certain level, a red light will appear on the LED display. Remember: red means “stop.” Hold off on using your vape pen again until it’s been charged.  Attempting to use your vape pen in a low-battery state could lead to shorts, battery death, or other defects. If your battery stops holding a charge or begins draining faster than usual, take it as a sign that it’s time to replace it.

A comprehensive business plan keeps you organized as you set up your ISP.
