INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Pour water that has just boiled over your Barbie’s hair, or dip her head into boiled water for about 10 seconds. Be very careful when boiling and handling hot water, and avoid getting it on anything other than the Barbie’s hair.  Boiling water and handling boiled water should be performed by an adult. Children should get help from a parent or guardian for this step. If you cannot get adult supervision or you can’t or don’t want to boil water, you can simply use the warmest water from your sink. There’s a chance your Barbie’s curls won’t last quite as long, but it should achieve about the same effect. Let your Barbie cool for a few minutes after applying hot water to the hair. Then put her into your freezer to allow the hair to cool and set.  Leave your Barbie in the freezer for about 30-60 minutes, or until the hair is hardened/frozen, before removing it. Ensure that the doll isn’t near open food items or anything else that could stick to it in the freezer. Set your Barbie on a bath towel or paper towel and allow the hair to thaw out and dry completely. Be prepared to wait several hours for this to happen, otherwise the curls will not hold.  Start this process before bed and leave your Barbie’s hair to dry overnight for an easy way to wait patiently before your final results. To speed up the drying process, you can also blot at the hair periodically with an absorbent towel. Just make sure you don’t pull out any of the braids or curlers while doing so. When the Barbie’s hair is dry, carefully undo the braids or remove the straws, foil, or pipe cleaners you used as curlers. Do this gently without straightening out the resulting curls.  Remember to unfold the ends of pipe cleaners or aluminum foil, or remove the bobby pins from either end of a straw, before pulling them out. Take out your first braid or curler slowly and check to see if the hair is still damp. If it is, redo the braid or curl as best you can, and leave the whole head of hair to dry for longer before taking everything out.

SUMMARY: Dip Barbie’s head into hot water. Place your Barbie into the freezer. Allow the hair to dry completely. Pull your braids/curlers out gently.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Most people don't know what cheerleading really is. If your parents think that cheerleaders are mean people that do nothing but wave pom-poms, explain to them what you really want to do, how much you love cheerleading, and that all-star cheerleading is not the same thing as cheering for your school or football. Make sure you aren't putting them on the spot. Make sure they agree with you and you aren't pressuring them. They will more likely help you if you stay calm and show them your mature. Be happy, smile, make friends, don't be mean, laugh a lot, and be sporty! Remember that being mean and rude to other teammates could get you kicked off the cheerleading team, so remember to be nice to everyone in your team and outside our team. Also make sure that you pick a good team. Before you become an all-star cheerleader, you need to know what all-star cheerleading is. Look up videos on Youtube or visit the USASF (US All-Star Federation) website to see how it's like being an all-star cheerleader. Know all the rules and levels so you'll have an idea what level you'll be on and what you'll be doing. And be sure to know the difference between all-star cheerleading and football/basketball cheerleading before you sign up! If you're tall and strong, you'll probably be a base or backspot. If you're short, flexible, and agile you'll probably be a flyer. If you're a combination of both, maybe you could be two things at a time! Look on the website for pictures, look on youtube for videos, and see if on the website they have requirements for the team you want to try out for. For previews on competitions go to websites like Jamfest or U.S. Nationals. Remember to find a good team. If the team only has seven girls or goes in only two competitions a year, you might not want to join if cheerleading is your passion. Make sure you join a good sized teams with plenty of levels and that goes on competitions! And if possible, try joining a team that goes to Worlds.

SUMMARY: Get your parents permission and support. Start acting like a cheerleader, even before you make the team. Research good cheerleading. Decide what you're going to be. Research an all star team in your area so you have all the information.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can find companies in a phone book or online that allow you to rent a skid steer. Make sure that the company you choose will provide an experienced operator if you don’t know how to use a skid steer yourself. Explain that you need to move large rocks and make an appointment for the skid steer and operator to meet you where the rocks are located.  A skid steer is a multipurpose vehicle, like a Bobcat, that can be used to move heavy objects. It typically costs around $175 to rent a skid steer for 4 hours, plus the labor rate of around $50 per hour for the operator. Generally, a skid steer with a bucket or forks will be used for moving large rocks. Point out the rocks you need moved to the operator so they can load them into the bucket or onto the forks. The operator will place the forks or bucket underneath the rocks and lift them up. Make sure the path is clear for the skid steer to move from 1 location to the next. Once you’ve got the skid steer in the right location, ask the operator to unload the rocks. They will lower the forks or bucket and deposit the rocks on the ground.

SUMMARY: Arrange to have a skid steer and operator come to the location. Load the rocks in the skid steer. Drive the skid steer to the desired location and unload it.
