Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Spend quality time together. Make her a photo collage. Make her a playlist of her favorite songs. Give her coupons she can cash in for you to do chores. Cook for (or with) your mom. Pamper your mom with home spa treatments. Clean the house.

Answer: One of the best ways to show your mom how much you appreciate her is to spend quality time with her. You might go for a walk, watch a movie, or make a craft. Choose an activity you know your mom likes. Try to make an event of it. For instance, you might make popcorn and put out treats if you're watching a movie together. If your mom is into arts and crafts you can make her a collage of family photos. Choose photos that highlight her role as a mother. These will likely include you and any siblings you have. You could start with a photo of just your mom in the middle of the collage, and then surround her with photos of you and any other members of your family. If she loves music, make your mom a CD or a playlist of songs you know she’ll love. Make the playlist a combination of songs she loves and new songs she doesn’t know. That way, part of the gift will be the discovery of new songs and artists. If she has a good sense of humor and/or loves dancing, you might even make a funny dance routine to go along with one of the songs. This is a great gift if you’re still living at home and don’t have any money. Examples include free babysitting (if you’re older with younger siblings), doing laundry, and doing the dishes. You can make the coupons as simple or fancy as you like. For example, you might use craft materials or could make and print them from your computer. Surprise your mom with breakfast — maybe even in bed. If she loves baking, find a cookie or cake recipe she hasn’t tried before and spend the afternoon baking together. Plan the day’s meals out in advance so that your mother doesn't have to cook at all that day if she doesn’t want to. Even if she loves cooking, she might appreciate a day off. Create a spa experience for your mom at home with a homemade face mask, calming music, and her favorite scents. Give her some homemade bath salts so she can take a hot bath, and make her a cup of tea to help her relax. If you can afford it, buy her a nice face mask from the drug store, as well as some bath oils, suds, or Epsom salts in it. You can make the bathroom feel more like a spa by lighting candles and playing soft music in there. A lot of moms work hard to keep the house clean and the family fed. On Mother’s Day, give your mom a break by doing all the cleaning that day. Clean up after each meal, and clean up whenever else it may be needed.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Mix the cleaning solution. Use a microfiber cloth to clean the stain. Let the shag carpet dry.

Answer: Use equal parts plain white vinegar and lukewarm water to create a mixture for cleaning your shag carpet. The white vinegar has many cleaning properties, but needs to be diluted a bit with water in order to be used safely and effectively in your home. For small stains, you could start with 1⁄2  c (120 mL) of white vinegar and 1⁄2  c (120 mL) of lukewarm water. Dip a clean microfiber cloth into the vinegar cleaning solution and start working the cleaner into the shag carpet. Rub the stain quite vigorously (though avoid breaking or damaging the long shag carpet fibers) until the stain dissipates to your satisfaction. You may need to use quite a bit of elbow grease to fully eliminate the stain. Once you have finished scrubbing, you’ll need to let the shag carpet dry completely before you begin to use it like normal again. This can take up to 48 hours, or even longer depending on the size of the carpet and the thickness of the fibers. You can think about setting up box fans to blow on the shag carpet to help it dry more quickly if you are running short on time.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Right-click ⊞ Win. Click Command Prompt. Type ping www.facebook.com -t into Command Prompt. Tap ↵ Enter. Write down Facebook's IP address. Type Facebook's IP address into your browser's URL bar. Tap ↵ Enter.

Answer: It's in the bottom left corner of your screen. You can also hold down the ⊞ Win key and tap X. Doing so will open the Command Prompt program. If you're on a student computer or a similarly networked device, you may not be able to use Command Prompt. Make sure you don't add or subtract spaces or characters.  The IP address is the string of numbers to the right of "Reply from" and does not include the colon at the end of the string of numbers. For example, the IP address might look like "12.34.56.78" or something similar. The URL bar is usually at the top of the browser window. If Facebook's local IP address isn't blocked, you should now be on the Facebook login screen.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Watch for Nickelodeon’s casting calls. Ask your agent to set up an audition. Prepare for the specific role you’re auditioning for. Stay strong and keep trying! Consider auditioning for other networks.

Answer:
Nickelodeon puts out casting calls for new roles quite frequently. Sometimes the roles are lead roles, but most of them are for supporting or minor roles. Audition for anything you’re a good fit for, whether it’s big or small. Once you get your foot in the door, your opportunities with Nickelodeon will definitely expand. You can watch this site for casting call announcements (it’s updated on a weekly basis): https://www.2017auditions.com/nickelodeon/ Your agent will be helping you look for auditions. Once you find a good one for you, the agent will take over to book the audition. They will know who to contact and make sure your headshot and resume end up in the right person’s hands at Nickelodeon. In some cases, you may be given a script to study, but not always. Sometimes the casting directors might ask you to come in and perform a monologue. Choose a monologue from one of their past television shows and practice until you’ve perfected it.  You don’t have to choose a monologue from a past Nick show. Feel free to change it up! Use classic or recent material that makes sense for the role you’re auditioning for. Depending on the role, you may also be asked to sing an audition song. Nickelodeon is a friendly, bubbly community that will always give you second chances. If you didn’t get the part for your first audition, don’t let that get you down. Continue going on auditions. Now that they know who you are, auditioning will get easier every time you do it. Just work on being the best actor you can be. Stardom usually doesn’t happen overnight. Keep your eyes on the prize!  Continue auditioning for smaller roles, such as commercials and voice-over work, in between your Nickelodeon auditions. That way, you can continue gaining experience and building up your resume. Nickelodeon is awesome, but that network isn’t the only game in town! Have your agent work on getting you auditions with the Disney Channel, ABC Family, Cartoon Network, and other young-adult networks. Acting for any of these networks would be really cool. Plus, that experience will look great on your resume if you decide to audition for Nickelodeon again in the future.
