In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you drop or spill an item on your clothes, dab ice water or seltzer immediately so that the stain does not set. Make sure that you dab rather than rub. Before washing spray the area with a stain pre-treatment. Don't clean stains with hot water, as this will set the stain. Try to get to the stain before it dries, while it is still wet. Don't put stained clothes into the dryer as this will make the stain permanent. Redo the stain treatment, then wash the garment again. Be aware that it may not be possible to remove all stains entirely. In this case, fade the stain as much as possible. Hot sauces, grease, and food can splash and cause damage to clothes. Don't start making your favorite marinara or standing in front of your deep-fryer without an apron on. This also goes for arts and crafts. Many paints can stain clothing, so it would be a good idea to wear old jeans and shirts that you no longer care about. If you don't have any aprons or junk clothing to spare while cooking or cleaning, stick with darker clothes. They don't show dirt or stains as easily as light-colored garments. Rather than pulling on them and ruining more stitches, you should snip loose strings and thread as soon as possible. If the seam has already lost too many stitches, consider learning how to stitch or sew, so you can fix the small problem before it becomes a bigger one. When repairing loose stitching, it is often easier to do it by hand. Always match the thread color to the stitching. While it may be tempting to pull on loose threads, this can actually make the problem worse. Always snip the thread off. Proper washing and drying methods will prevent pills in the first place, but if you already have pilled clothes you can try to fix them yourself, rather than throwing the garment out. You can use a store-bought pilling shaver, but you can also easily remove the bobbles with a pumice stone, a shaving razor, or even a Velcro hair roller.
Summary: Address stains and spills immediately! Wear aprons or old "junk" clothes while cleaning and cooking. Snip loose strings and threads. Take care of pills.

Before its explosion in popularity in the late 70s, most disco dancing was partnered. If you don't have a partner or would just like to practice solo, simply do the steps of your preferred part. You can also do a set of each to know the dance inside and out. Stand relatively close together so that each of you is able to take at least one step back with your hands still connected. Two major ways of connecting are: The traditional closed position used in many styles of dance. The lead and the follow hold hands on one side, usually the follow's right and the lead's left. The lead holds the follow by placing his or her right hand on the follow's back. The follow's left arm is draped over the lead's right shoulder or upper arm. Simply hold hands on both sides with your elbows bent. If you are leading, tap your left foot to your left side without putting your weight on it. If you are following, mirror your partner's foot with your right. You may choose to tap your foot in place or behind you instead. If you are leading, bring your left foot back next to your right with your weight on it. If you are following, match your right foot to your partner's left. Remember to keep in sync with your partner at all times. If you are leading, step back with your right foot then bring your left to meet it. If you are following, mirror your partner's feet by stepping back with your left and meeting it with your right. Do both halves of this step very quickly within the same beat. The next three steps can vary depending on how the lead wants to go. If you are leading, take a step with your right foot. In general, this step is done forwards to return close to your partner. However, you can choose to step in place or further backward. Then take a step with your left foot and then a step with your right foot. These steps can also be done in place, backwards, or forwards. If you are following, take the same three steps as your partner but with opposite feet. Go back to the closed position and run through these steps again. The lead may choose to guide the dance in a certain direction around the dance floor. Continue the step cycle for the duration of the song. You can choose from hundreds of established figures or create your own. A few consecutive single figures can be chained together. Some well-known figures include: Dishrag: Starting from two hand holds or with crossed hands, the lead lifts up his or her hands and turns the follow underneath. Inside Spin: The lead lifts up one arm and stays in place while the follow does a counterclockwise turn. Butterfly: From an open two-hand hold, the dancers walk around each other, turning clockwise or counterclockwise.

Q: A fishing rod can be a complex piece of equipment so it is wise to learn the terminology before assembling your own. If your rod breaks into 2 parts or more, the joint where the sections fit together is called the ferrule. The male ferrule inserts into a female ferrule. The handle is also called a grip and is where you hold the rod. The butt it the thick part of your rod closest to the handle. The tip is the most flexible part of the rod and is located at the very top of the rod. Guides are the rings that go all along the rod that guide your fishing line.
A: Identify the parts of your fishing pole.

Problem: Article: If your yard is extremely bumpy and your grass is full of weeds, you may need to replace the lawn entirely. Dig up the existing turf with a shovel or kill it with a chemical herbicide or organic alternative to get rid of the grass quickly. At least 2 days before digging or excavating, you should request utility locates. In the U.S., you can call the national Digline at 811. This is a free service. Some grass may have roots up to 1 foot (30cm) deep that will need to be removed. If you are not leveling your whole yard, you do not need to remove your grass entirely. Mowing the area down will help you see the raised and lowered areas clearly as you work. It will also allow you to apply topsoil directly to the ground later on. If you notice uneven areas while mowing, mark them with a small sprinkler-marking flags. Look for uneven areas in your yard that could use leveling. Drive a stake into the 4 corners of the area that you choose. Tie string around the tops of the stakes to make the area you plan to level clear while you work. If you are leveling your entire yard, plan to finish the project over a period of several days rather than an afternoon. Don't worry about precise measurements while marking off the yard area. The area does not need to be even or perfectly rectangular. Attach the line level to the string to measure the highs and lows of your area. As you string the level along the line, watch the bubble on the line level's cover. If it is in between the 2 lines, the ground is level. If it is shifted to the right or left of either lines, the ground is uneven. Take measurements every 48 feet (1.22.4m) as you go around the perimeter of the area, marking which areas will need to be raised or lowered later on. If you notice a raised or lowered area as you level that you had not measured, use your line level to measure it before working on it. Refer to your notes any time that you can't remember which areas in your yard need to be leveled during the process. Making a to-scale drawing on graph paper can be very helpful as well. As you level your yard, you will need to continue taking precise measurements. Leave the stakes and strings up as you work. If the stakes tilt or fall over while you work, prop them back up in case you need to use your line level again later.
Summary:
Remove your grass turf if you are leveling the entire yard. Mow any existing patches of lawn you plan to level. Find areas in your yard that you want to level. Use a line level to determine the highs and lows of your yard. Record areas that need raising or lowering on a piece of paper. Leave your string and stakes up while you're working.
