In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Start filling a sink or bucket with cool water and add a few drops of mild laundry detergent. Dampen a clean cloth in the soapy water, wring out the excess, and rub it over the dirty area(s). Work up a foam by scrubbing the area(s) with a toothbrush. Dampen a new cloth with plain water and wipe the area(s) until no traces of soap remain. Scrub gently around stitches. Forceful scrubbing may weaken these. Also be gentle with wool and felt hats for the same reason. Expect machine-washing to run a higher risk of affecting the shape and color of your hat. Hand-wash whenever you can, and never machine-wash a wool or felt hat. Start by soaking the hat in the soapy water for at least 20 minutes. You can leave it soaking for up to 2 hours, depending on how dirty it is. Scrub out any remaining dirt or stains with a toothbrush. Remember to be gentle around stitches. Rinse out the soap with running water, then shake out the excess water or let it drip back into the sink or onto a towel. Use a front-loading machine, not a top one, if machine-washing. Start by treating soiled areas with a stain pre-treatment and give it about ten minutes to set in. Then insert the hat into a hat form if you can find one for your specific hat. Wash the hat with like-colored garments or on its own. Use mild detergent, cold water, and the delicate cycle. Expect the central agitator in the basin of top-loading machines to damage the hat's shape. Refrain from using your dishwasher. These use hot water, and many dishwashing detergents have bleach, so expect dishwashers to ruin your hat's shape, size, and color
Summary: Spot-clean heavily soiled areas before washing. Handwash for best results. Soak the hat in warm water and a mild detergent. Scrub the hat with a toothbrush and rinse. Machine-wash with caution.

You can apply a chemical stripper to any stubborn adhesive per the manufacturer's instructions. Most chemical strippers use the same active ingredients that are found in paint strippers and can be purchased at your local hardware store. Scrape away the treated adhesive with a putty knife to remove any existing material. Since most of the adhesive should have been removed before the stripper was deployed, this process should be fairly easy. This is important to remove any small debris. Your subfloor is officially ready to shine in a new skin!

One-sentence summary -- Apply a chemical stripper. Scrape the treated adhesive. Sweep or vacuum the newly exposed subfloor.

Q: Friends won't make it all about them in communication. In addition to knowing when to share, they also know when and how to listen. Good listening skills in a friend are important because you need to feel heard and understood by the people you care about. Pay attention in your next conversation. Does your friend take the time to hear your message before responding? Even if your friend isn't the best listener, it should be clear that they are trying to hear you out and not just talking about themselves. Healthy relationships of any kind require boundariesfriendships are no exception. A good friend should be willing to acknowledge and respect those boundaries. At the same time, they shouldn't feel threatened by them. For example, if you tell a friend that you don't feel comfortable with them reading your diary or journal, they should respect your wish. A friend is someone who shows their affection for you in many ways, one of which is in their support for you and your ideas, interests, and goals. This person should be willing to clap for you when you are succeeding and help nurse your wounds when you are hurt. Everyone makes mistakes, and your friend should be willing to accept that you're no different. When you mess up and hurt their feelings, you might apologize and beg for their forgiveness. A good friend will gratefully accept your apology and offer you forgiveness. They won't hold your misdeed over your head or use it to manipulate you. For example, if you forgot to call a friend back, they shouldn't avoid you for several days. They should recognize that it was a simple mistake and not give you a hard time about it. The thing that separates a friend from the general population is their investment in you as a person. They care about you, which means they are honest with you, even if what they have to say hurts. A friend should offer constructive feedback if you're not doing what you need to be doing. For example, they may say, "You need to get up and study for your math test. Your grade is already lowCome on. I'll help you."
A: Determine if they listen. Question if they respect your boundaries. Figure out if they support you. Notice if they are forgiving. Listen for honest feedback.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Every few months, it's a good idea to put on a pair of gloves and gently run your hands through the grass. It should feel kind of like you're finger-combing your hair. This helps pull out any dead foliage and keep your evergreens looking their greenest. Work gloves are ideal for this process, but if you don't have a pair of those you can always use rubber gloves. Combing through the grass usually removes most of the dead foliage. If some brown blades remain after combing, though, you can always trim them out with gardening shears. Just remember to trim at the base of the blade to remove as much of the dead foliage as possible. Like deciduous grasses, evergreens generally need an annual trim. Unlike deciduous grasses, though, you don't need to prune that much off evergreens. Use your gardening shears or hedge trimmers to cut any brown or spent flowering tips off the grass. Cut your grass back to new growth, which should still be green. The exact length that you need to cut depends on what type of grass you have and how much your grass has grown out. That's why you typically go by color instead of length for evergreen grasses.

SUMMARY:
Comb through the grass to remove dead foliage. Clip out stubborn dead blades. Cut off brown or spent flowering tips in the spring.
