The selvage edge is the densely-woven strip along the top and bottom edges of the fabric. In some cases, it may have a clean, finished edge. In other cases, it may look frayed. You will typically find it on both the top and bottom edges of the fabric. On many printed cottons, the selvage edges are left white and unprinted. Pull on the top-left and bottom-right corners, then pull on the top-right and bottom-left corners. Depending on the size of the fabric, you may need to get someone to help you. This is especially important if you are working with stretchy, woven cotton. Find a thread along your selvage edge, about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the left cut edge, and pull it out. Repeat this step for the right cut edge. When you are done, you'll have a thin line on each side of your fabric, from selvage to selvage.  This is best for woven fabrics, like cottons and linens. It will not work on densely-woven, knitted, or stretchy fabrics, including faux furs and velvet. If the fabric was cut unevenly, your thread may not hit the opposite selvage edge. If that happens, pull another thread out further away from the last one. Don't worry if the thread breaks. Just find the broken end and continue pulling. Align the ends of a long ruler with the top and bottom selvage edges. A square would be even better. Use a dressmaker's chalk or pen to draw a line along the ruler/square.  This is useful for knit and stretchy fabrics, such as jersey. It's also a good technique to use on fake furs and other densely-woven fabrics, such as velvet. A square is a type of measuring device. It is shaped like a half-triangle, with a horizontal, vertical, and diagonal ruler. You should do this whether you pulled a thread out or drew the line. A pair of fabric scissors will work the best if you pulled the thread out. A rotary cutter will work better if you drew the line on.

One-sentence summary -- Cut the selvage off. Square the fabric to restore the original shape. Pull a thread out of each cut edge if you are working with woven fabrics. Draw a line along each cut edge if you are working with knit fabric. Cut along the thin line with a sharp pair of fabric scissors.

Q: If someone sent you a communication with offensive language, then you should hold onto it. That evidence could be critical to a sexual harassment case. Preserve the following types of communications:  voice mails emails handwritten notes Sometimes sexual harassment happens in private. In these situations, only two people observed the conduct—you and the harasser. As best as you can, you should document what happened and what was said.  Try to be sufficiently detailed. The more detail you can provide, the more credible you will appear.  Include all important details, such as the date and location of the harassment, as well as the identity of the harasser and your own emotional response. Also note the date that you are writing down your memories. Other people may have seen the harassment and can serve as witnesses to back up your story. Whoever investigates your claim will also want to talk to your coworkers, so you should identify those with relevant information.  You should also identify people who saw you immediately after the incident or people who you told about the harassment. If other people were harassed in the same manner by the same person, then you should identify them as well. You might be seeing a doctor or therapist to help you deal with the harassment. If so, then document your visits. You should also hold onto any records which contain a diagnosis.
A: Preserve communications. Write down your memories. Identify witnesses to the behavior. Document the effects on your health.

Article: If a girl likes you, there’s a good chance that she’ll seem attentive and focused while you’re talking in class, or if the two of you are in the same group conversation. Be nice and friendly, and also pay attention when she talks. Be aware that this doesn’t necessarily indicate a romantic interest. But, it’s a good sign that a girl respects your opinion or likes talking with you, which can indicate that she does like you. While this certainly isn’t a guaranteed way to tell if she’s attracted, it’s true that if a girl is interested in you, you may catch her casting a few glances your way. If you happen to catch her eye, smile to indicate that you like the attention and that she shouldn’t feel embarrassed. For example, a girl might look at you out of the corner of her eye a few times over lunch break. If she does, talk to her! If a girl is interested in you, she may try to position herself near you. That way, you and she will have a better chance of ending up in conversation. Act normal if this happens. Try not to get flustered, and just say hi at some point. On the other hand, if she doesn’t stand near you, it may indicate that she’s shy or would like you to say something to her first. Physical touch is significant and can carry a lot of meaning. For example, if you make a girl laugh and she puts her hand on your arm, this may indicate that she likes you. But, if she doesn’t touch you, it doesn’t mean she isn’t interested. Instead, try chatting with her.

Watch to see if she pays attention to you when you speak. Pay attention if you catch her glancing your way frequently. Notice if she often sits or stands near you. Notice if she touches you.

Article: The coal will heat up and the lighter fluid will burn off. You’re ready to start cooking once the coal is a white-gray color and glowing red at the center.  Wait until the coals are ready to begin grilling. If you start cooking your food before the lighter fluid burns off, your steak or chicken will taste like petroleum!  Do not add more lighter fluid to your grill once the coals are burning. It won’t make the fire heat up faster and you may burn your hands.
