Check your mattress periodically for stains and clean them right away when you notice one. This will help to prevent them from setting in and keep your mattress cleaner. Any time you suspect your mattress might have a stain, check under the sheets and clean it right away. Lightly spray the mattress with vinegar and sprinkle a small amount of baking soda on the stain. Allow the mixture to sit for a couple hours. Scrape off the baking soda with a butter knife or flat piece of plastic. Vacuum up the baking soda after it has dried. Dirt stains are not only unsightly, but they can be a breeding ground for bacteria and other health problems. For tougher stains, consider using general upholstery cleaner or other solutions intended for use on mattresses. Make sure to follow the directions and do not oversaturate the mattress. Combine 3 tablespoons of baking soda and 8 fluid ounces (240mL) of hydrogen peroxide with a half teaspoon of dish soap. Lightly dab the solution on the urine stain. Avoid soaking the mattress with your solution. Allow the area to dry. Urine is one of the most common stains on mattresses especially on mattresses used by children. Not only does urine stain mattresses, but it leaves a nasty odor that is hard to get rid of. If the stain is still visible, combine 3 tablespoons of laundry powder and 1 tablespoon (14.8ml) of water. Spread this on the stain and allow it to sit for half an hour. Then, remove the paste with a knife or thin flat piece of plastic. Vacuum to remove any residue. Combine 2 fluid ounces (59mL) of hydrogen peroxide and 1 tablespoon (14.8ml) each of dish soap and table salt. Spread the concoction over the stain and let it sit. Scape the remaining residue off with a butter knife or thin piece of plastic. While not as common as urine, blood stains on mattresses are not that rare. But while blood stains lack the odor of urine stains, they're often harder to remove. If the stain is still visible, lightly dab it with a clean white cloth that has been moistened with hydrogen peroxide. Moisten a clean white cloth with cleaning ammonia and dab the stain lightly. Wipe the area again with a clean white cloth. Ventilate the room. Avoid using too much ammonia or any other liquid on your mattress. Perhaps the toughest stain to remove are vomit stains, because stomach acid and food products combined create an unpredictable combination that is hard to target with specific cleaning products.

If you've just spilled bleach on your carpet, there might still be time to save its color if you act quickly. Run a towel or cloth under cold water, squeeze it out, then use it to blot out the affected area. Take care to blot with repeated dabbing motions instead of scrubbing. Scrubbing will force the bleach deeper into the carpet fibers. Make sure to use a white towel or one that you don't mind getting stained. After blotting the stain with cold water, mix a half tablespoon of liquid dishwashing detergent with a cup (240 mL) of warm water. For larger stains, use the same ratio (for example, one tablespoon mixed with two cups or 480 ml of water) Let it sit for about five minutes. As an alternative to soap, you could substitute distilled white vinegar in the same ratio. After five minutes, use a clean, damp sponge or cloth to blot the area you've soaked in the detergent solution. Be sure to use cold water to get your sponge or cloth damp. Repeat the process 2 more times to lift all of the residual bleach out from your carpet. When blotting, work from the outside of the stain toward the center to avoid spreading it. Depending on the amount of bleach and how many times you rinse the carpet, you may need to switch to a new rag.

For the juice, you'll need 2 small grapefruits, 2 oranges, 2 tangerines, and half a lime. Run the fruits through a juicer according to the manufacturer's instructions in succession so all of the juices are combined. Stir the mixture with a spoon to ensure that all of the juices are combined. If you don't have a juicer, you can use a citrus press to juice the grapefruit, oranges, tangerines, and lime. After you've juiced the citrus fruits, run 2 pomegranates through the juicer. Make sure to expel the juice into a separate container from the bowl that's holding the citrus juices, though. After you've juiced all of the fruits, divide the citrus juice evenly between three glasses. Next, pour some of the pomegranate juice into each glass, where it will sink to the bottom. Serve the juice at room temperature. If you prefer, you can chill the juices for an hour or two in the refrigerator before combining them.

Many recruiters make extensive use of LinkedIn. The platform is designed to help you get your name out there and find a new job. You can open an account for free, then set up your profile page by adding information about your education, work experience, and skills. Keep the information and language on your LinkedIn profile professional. Use a picture of yourself in which you are well-groomed and professionally attired. If you have a recent school photo or graduation photo, that may work. Take a moment to search for people on LinkedIn you might know, but keep in mind that LinkedIn is not a "social" network like Facebook or Instagram. Just because you're friends with someone doesn't mean they'll necessarily add value to your network. On the other hand, connecting with former teachers, bosses, or coworkers is always a good idea. The recruiter's business card may have an address for their LinkedIn page on it. If not, you can use the LinkedIn search function to find them. Simply type their name into the search bar. When you find the profile for the right person, look over it briefly to get some more insight into that recruiter's career history and their work at the company. You may find other things you have in common with the recruiter. For example, they might have graduated from the same school as you. Type a brief 2 or 3 sentence message mentioning that you met them at the career fair and would like to connect with them. Mention the name of the career fair specifically, along with the date it took place. You might also include detail about something you talked about to help the recruiter place you. For example, you might write "Hi Ronda Recruiter! We chatted at the Unicorn University Career Fair on April 1. I'd like to connect with you here to keep up-to-date with any opportunities that may open up in your organization. Thanks!" If you simply send a request to connect without a message, the recruiter likely won't accept your request. Most LinkedIn users don't accept connection requests from people they don't know or have a business relationship with. Not only do individuals have profiles on LinkedIn, but companies also do too. By following a company's LinkedIn page, you can stay in the loop about new developments and job openings at that company. Many executives and business leaders are also "influencers" on LinkedIn. You can follow an influencer's posts without sending a request to connect with them directly. Influencers often write posts about industry developments, ideas, and needs in the workforce. These posts can give you a lot of insight into your chosen field. LinkedIn has videos and other resources that can teach you how to use the network to jumpstart your career. Go to https://university.linkedin.com/linkedin-for-students to get started.
