Problem: Article: Practice makes perfect. Remember, practice your routine over and over and over and over. Be patient with your dancers and remain positive. Stay flexible and remain open to altering your choreography if something is not working. Don’t be afraid to accept input from others.  Go through the dance slowly at first. Pick up the pace as the dancers feel more comfortable. When practicing, be enthusiastic so when it comes to the real thing, it feels natural. Make sure you and the dancers are properly warmed-up before rehearsal. Rehearse your piece on the stage or floor you will be performing. Record your practice. Decide how your dancers will enter and exit the stage. Determine where on the floor the dancers should be at various points of the dance--alter your transitions if necessary. During this process, it is important that you step away from the stage and view the piece from the audience’s position. Make sure none of the dancers are obstructed by the building or props. After reviewing the footage from your staged rehearsal, revise your choreography. Perfect the steps and transitions. Make note of areas in which your dancers could improve--are they conveying the proper emotion? Bring your notes to rehearsal and work with your dancers to make the necessary changes. Don’t make too many alterations to the choreography. This can frustrate your dancers and lead to a stressful first performance. Make necessary changes only!
Summary: Practice! Stage your piece. Revise your choreography.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fill a bucket with hot water. Add an ammonia-based cleaner to help remove mold or mildew on older furniture. Use a sponge to wash the entire surface of the piece you'll be painting. Spray the furniture with a hose. Use a pressurized nozzle attachment if you have one. Make sure to spray every surface of the furniture from multiple angles to ensure a complete rinse.  To clean brand new plastic, wipe down with a cloth soaked in paint thinner. An all-purpose cleaner, such as dish soap, will work if the furniture is not too dirty. Dry the furniture with a cotton towel and allow it to air dry completely.  Ensure the furniture is completely dry before proceeding. Choose an area with good ventilation to paint your furniture. A garage with the door open or a flat surface outdoors are ideal.  Cover the surface of the ground with a material you don't mind dropping paint on, such as newspaper or a tarp.  Use painter's tape to cover any surfaces of the furniture you do not wish to paint. For example, if you only want to paint the surface of a table, tape off the top portion of each leg. If the piece you're working on has been painted before, it will need to be lightly sanded.  It is often worth sanding a bare plastic surface, as this will help primer and paint better adhere to the furniture.  Use sandpaper or a sanding sponge with fine -grit to gently brush the entire surface.  Test your sanding material in an inconspicuous spot on the furniture. Reduce pressure or use sanding equipment with a finer grit if any visible scratches appear. After sanding, wipe down the surface of the piece with a tack cloth to remove dust.  Skip to priming if the furniture is already smooth. Old furniture that has sat in the sun may be ready to paint after cleaning and drying. New plastic furniture will likely benefit from a light sanding.

SUMMARY: Clean the furniture. Protect other surfaces. Sand the furniture's surface.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Treat oil stains on wood as soon as they occur to prevent the oil from sinking deep into the wood and causing stains. Blot the stain with paper towels, newspaper or blotting paper, pressing the paper firmly until you’re sure you have soaked up the oil. Wear rubber gloves throughout this technique to avoid any skin irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. Place some warm water in a bowl and add some mild detergent. Use your hands to mix the solution and create soapsuds. Place some of the soapsuds onto the stained area with a clean cloth and rub onto the affected area. Be gentle enough to avoid scratching the wood, but firm enough to work the suds into the wood grain.  For more stubborn or deeper stains, scrub the soapsuds in with a soft brush. Avoid harsher abrasives like steel brushes, as they may scratch your wooden surface. Once you have finished cleaning, rinse the area with clean water, or wipe it down with a clean damp cloth. This will remove any remaining oily residue or soapsuds. Drying the wood removes moisture so you are better able to determine if the stain has been removed.  Allow the wood to air dry if it is still not completely dry. Once the wood is completely dry, check to see if the stain is still there. If still evident, you’ll need to apply further treatment.
Summary: Soak up the oil with a paper towel. Mix up a mild detergent solution in a bowl. Clean the oily area with your solution. Rinse the wood with clean water. Pat dry the wood with a clean cloth or towel.

. Phone recorders are increasingly high-quality, and can be just as easy for getting quick ideas down on record so you can play them back as in setting up an elaborate DIY studio with your computer. All you've got to do is click a button and place the phone close to the source. Try downloading higher-quality audio recorders than the default one that comes on the phone. HD options are available for no more than a few dollars--much cheaper than ProTools or other pro software. Digital recorders like Zoom mics are great for recording acoustic music in quiet settings, just as good at getting field recordings and capturing the ambience of the room. You can record it straight into the recorder, play it back, and upload it to your computer as an mp3 to listen to later and share with your friends. If it was good enough for the Mountain Goats, who recorded their first several albums all on a boombox and developed a huge following, it can be good enough for getting quick ideas down for demos or for recording practice sessions. If you've got an old model analog cassette stereo, pop a fresh cassette tape in, hit record, and play acoustic interments close to the input. For better quality, consider lining in a straight AV cable mic with the appropriate jack.

Traditionally, a hot toddy is made with whiskey or brandy, or a combination of the two. Add a small (or generous) amount and gently stir to mix ingredients.  What type of whisky or brandy you use is up to you. Add the amount of whisky or brandy you like. If you like a weak drink, add less than an ounce. If you like a strong drink, add an ounce and a half. If you don't like the flavor of whisky or brandy, try a little rum. Use the same amount of liquor as you would if using the other spirits. The spices in spiced rum in particular go very well in a hot toddy. Bartenders are known to add a wide variety of spirits to the traditional hot toddy mixture. This can vary greatly, from replacing the main liquor, with gin for example, to adding a splash of Campari or some other liqueur to add complexity to the flavor.
