Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check the garment label. Rinse the item in cold water. Soak the garment in cold water. Soak cotton garments in a vinegar solution. Launder the garment after it has soaked. Dry the garment.

Answer: Check the garment label for the specific washing instructions. If the label on the garment tag says "Dry Clean Only," take it to the dry cleaners right away. Point the stain out to the cleaner so they know exactly what kind of stain they're dealing with. If the label does not say "Dry Clean Only," you can try to get the stain out yourself using some household products. Immediately rinse or blot the tea stain with cold water if the spill has just occurred. Blot the stain with a clean cloth, continuous moving the cloth around to blot the stain with a clean section. Continue blotting the spot until no more of the stain is lifting from the garment. If your garment does not require dry cleaning, soak it in cold water for at least 30 minutes. You can also leave the garment to soak overnight if the stain is particularly big. Consider adding a small amount of detergent (a few tablespoons for 1 gallon of water) or bleach to the cold water soak. However, only add bleach if the garment is white. You could also try soaking a cotton garment in a vinegar solution. Mix together 3 cups of white vinegar and 1 cup of cold water in a bucket, bowl, or sink. Add the cotton garment to the solution and let it soak for about 30 minutes. Alternatively, you could spray the vinegar solution straight onto the stain, and allow it to sit for approximately 30 minutes. If the stain remains after the soak, pour some table salt onto the stain and rub the fabric and salt together with you fingers. When the stained garment has had time to soak, launder it as you normally would. If the garment is white, use bleach. You can use oxygenated bleach or color-safe bleach on colored fabrics. Remove the fabric from the wash machine and survey it before you place it in the dryer. Heat will set a stain, so it should not be used until the tea is entirely removed. If the stain is entirely removed, dry the garment as you normally would or place it outside to dry in the sun.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Hold a sustained note. Work on hitting high notes. Reach for low notes.

Answer: Sometimes songs require a singer to hold a note for an extended period, and if you aren't prepared for this or don't have the right technique, you may not be able to hold the note for the full length. To practice holding a note: Expand your ribs, tuck in your lower belly, and relax your shoulders and neck. Inhale slowly as you open your throat, arms, and chest, as though you were just surprised by something. Hold this openness while staying relaxed. This is the same technique you will use to hold a note. Now, choose a note in the middle of your range, repeat the above steps, but this time sing that note and hold it for as long as you can, keeping your throat open and relaxed as you sustain the note. If you're going to be singing a song that requires you to hit some high notes, there are ways you can practice for this. The problem with high notes is that you can damage your vocal chords if you strain too hard to hit the notes. To reach high notes without causing damage, you need to: Practice keeping a steady flow of air as you sing. Keep all your muscles relaxed. Keep all your resonance chambers (the throat, mouth, nose, chest, etc.) open as you sing. Pick a song with high notes and practice it in sections until you become comfortable with each section. Practice the song once through without singing the words: instead, vocalize a single sound to go through all the pitches. When you're comfortable with that, sing the song, words and all, through entirely. A song with low notes can also be difficult to master because with low notes, you can easily lose control of the sound, because your vocal chords relax as the pitch descends. To maintain control of your lower notes, it's important to keep your throat relaxed and maintain resonance in your face. If you stop feeling the resonance in your face as you reach for lower notes, shake your head from side to side to open your throat and try again. Don't worry if your volume drops with the lower notes, because lower notes cannot be sung at a loud volume. Instead, focus on maintaining the tone and clarity of the note, rather than the volume of your voice.

Answer: It's usually at the bottom-left corner of the desktop. This opens the app. It's near the top-left corner of the app. It's near the bottom of the left column. It's next to "Office Updates" below the red "Office" header. A menu will expand. Windows will now check for updates to Microsoft Office. If updates are found, they'll be automatically installed in the background.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be straightforward and brief. Keep the details to a minimum. Be reassuring. Describe how it will affect them logistically. Answer questions honestly but age-appropriately.

Answer:
Talking about separation is not a fun subject, but get to the point rather than trying to dress up the discussion. You might say something like "Mom and Dad aren't getting along very well anymore. We'll be taking some time apart and living separately." Offer a soft and empathetic tone as you deliver the news. Don't be defensive or accusatory about your spouse, either. Even if there has been obvious tension in your marriage, your kids don't need to know all the ugly details. Simply say what you need to say and keep the focus on them, not on you. For instance, it would be entirely inappropriate to mention cheating, abuse, or financial troubles. It will only complicate matters if you introduce your children to adult problems. Instead of going into complex details, keep it short and simple. Say, "Mom and Dad will both feel happier by living apart." Kids may react to the news of divorce in many different ways. Your role should be to reassure them that, although things are changing in your marriage and household, your parenting role stays the same. Both parents should convey that you love your children and will be there for them as best you can. For instance, remind them "This is happening because we can't get along. You did nothing wrong. We love you and we always will. We won't be living together, but we will both be taking care of you." Most children will immediately wonder about how a separation impacts their lives, so address this as soon as possible. Give them some basic information about how their lives will change due to this new reality. For example, you might say, "Dad will continue to stay here with you guys, and Mom will be leaving. I'll be getting an apartment nearby and you will spend weekends with me." Your child may suggest reasons they think you are splitting. To enhance their trust, don't lie. Don't go into details either. Agree that the suggested behavior is a part of the problem, but that there are other issues as well. Make sure you keep any explanations appropriate for your child's age. For instance, younger children of preschool age may think, because one parent is leaving, that they are leaving them, not the other parent. Correct these misconceptions and reassure them it's not their fault. Older children may have fantasies of getting their parents back together. You might validate their intentions, but let them know that these decisions are out of their control. Your child may have ideas of who they want to live with, but you should explain that there are other factors in this decision. Try to stick to the custody plan that both parents have developed together.
