Q: Place the section of the cotton material that is stained face down against a piece of dry paper towel. This will allow you to work the stain out of the cotton from the other side of the material. Pour a small amount of your solvent onto the cotton so that it seeps through the material into the stain. Allow the solvent to breakdown the stain by letting it to sit for a minute. Dampen a cotton ball or piece of cloth with solvent and gently blot the stain from the backside. This will push the marker ink out of the cotton and into the paper towel. Continue adding alcohol to the stain in small amounts and blotting. As you do so, remove saturated paper towels from below and replace them with dry paper towels that will soak up your solvent and ink from the stain. Frequent paper towel changes are important, to prevent the cotton from re-absorbing ink that is transferred into the towel. Continue blotting and replacing the paper towel until no more ink transfers and the stain is removed from the cotton material. After removing the ink stain, allow the item to air dry and ensure the stain is removed. Avoid machine-drying the material until you're sure the stain is removed, as high-heat drying can make the stain permanent. Once you're sure the stain has been removed, wash the item normally.
A: Position the stain against a paper towel. Pour the solvent into the stain from the other side. Blot the stain from the opposite side. Change the paper towel frequently. Let the material air dry.

Q: As your hair transitions from a bob to a lob, or long bob, it is important that you continue to visit your hairdresser for frequent trims. Every six to eight weeks, ask your stylist to take off inch of hair. This will remove the split ends and keep your hair looking healthy as it grows out. If your hair is very thick, your bob may require additional maintenance. As your thick hair grows, the base of your bob may widen. In the hair industry, this is called the mushroom-effect. To avoid this, ask your stylist to thin just the ends of your hair with a razor. As soon as your hair hits your shoulders, the ends will flip out in an unflattering way. Until your hair grows past your shoulders, you should do your best to keep the ends off your collar bone. To achieve this, consider applying one or more of the following methods: Curl your hair with a 1 inch barrel to shorten the strands slightly Add beach waves and texture to your hair to shorten the strands Add volume to your roots to lift the hair off your shoulders.
A: Continue to get regular trims. Thin the ends of your hair as needed. Keep your lob off your shoulders with texture, curls, and volume.

Q: You may want to restart your iPad, by turning it off and on again, if it has problems loading and is running slow. Restart before trying other options to fix your iPad problems. Restarting your iPad is simple, and it will not hurt your iPad. Press down on the sleep/wake button, at the top of your iPad. Keep pressing the sleep/wake button down, until the slider appears at the top of the screen. This may take a few seconds. Swipe the red slider to the right, to turn the iPad off. Wait until the iPad turns off completely. Turn your iPad on again. Swipe right again, to use your iPad. Check to see if your problem has been resolved. Try to perform the function you were having difficulty performing. If the problem with your iPad persists, try contacting Apple support for help with your device. If your iPad has a blank screen that will not turn on and you have tried charging your iPad, you may want to consider forcing your iPad to restart. Restarting and forcing your iPad to restart are two different things. If your iPad is having more major problems not responding or not functioning, you may want to force a restart. Force a restart only if you have already tried other methods and contacted Apple support for help. You can force a restart even when buttons are not responding, or the screen is blank or black. Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time. Keep holding for at least ten seconds. Stop holding when you see the Apple icon. Swipe right to use your iPad.
A: Restart your iPad. Go back into the application you were using. Force your iPad to restart only as a last measure.

Q: If you'd prefer a more methodical approach, you can follow a "starting distance" methodology with your cat. Begin by creating a safe space. Before any guests arrive, provide your cat with a safe area to go. This will be an area where the cat can completely avoid guests. Provide water, food, and a litter box. Place your cat in the safe space (but don't lock him in) and let him remain there while guests arrive. This will help your cat to stop associating the presence of guests in the home with anxiety. " When you have a particularly patient guest, ask them to help you find your cat's starting distance. When you cat emerges from the safe area, have your guest come as close as they can to your cat before the cat displays any signs of anxiety or aggression. This is your cat's approximate starting distance. The next time a guest comes over, remove your cat from the safe area, and place him at his approximate starting distance from the guest. Ask your guest to remain motionless (standing or sitting), and allow the cat to investigate them. If the cat remains calm, reward his behavior with treats, play, or petting and attention for a few minutes, then put him back in the safe area. You can repeat this exercise a few times while your guest is visiting. If the cat seems uncomfortable, move him further away until he is calm, and reward him as just outlined. Keep doing these sessions, each time watching your cat carefully. Have the guest move slowly and with gentle motions. Your guest doesn't need to say anything, but they may choose to speak in soothing tones. Eventually, the cat will be calm enough to remain within arm's reach of the guest. Anti-anxiety medication can help with this process also. If your cat becomes anxious, simply increase the distance until he is calm. Once your cat is fairly comfortable approaching a guest that is still, see what happens if your guest moves around. Ask your guest to pace back and forth or make any movement that you want your cat to get accustomed to. (You may find that the starting distance is longer as some cats are more timid about movement.) Repeat the exercises with your guest moving so that your cat becomes desensitized.
A:
Provide a safe area. Find your cat's "starting distance. Begin with a motionless guest. Decrease the distance by a few inches. Incorporate movement.
