Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Recognize different serviette sizes. Launder cloth serviettes. Starch the serviettes. Press the serviettes dry.

Answer: Serviettes come in a variety of sizes for different meals and functions. Aside from a few specific napkin types, serviettes are almost always perfect squares. Cocktail napkins are generally too small to fold, but most other napkins will be large enough for most fancy serviette folds.  Cocktail napkins are usually six to 9 inches square (15 to 23 cm).  Tea, luncheon, and hors d’oeuvre napkins are between 12 and 16 inches square (30 to 41 cm). Lunch, buffet, and informal dinner napkins range from 18 to 24 inches square (46 to 61 cm).  Serviettes for formal or multiple course meals generally range between 22 and 26 inches square (56 to 66 cm). Wash your serviettes in the washing machine or by hand with a mild detergent. When they are clean, wring out your serviettes, but don’t worry about drying them.  Do not use fabric softener on serviettes you’re going to starch. Don’t worry about laundering and starching your serviettes if you are using disposable paper napkins. Dissolve two tablespoons of laundry starch in some cold water. Pour two pints (946 ml) of freshly boiled water into a clean sink, laundry tub, or large bowl. Add an additional two pints of cold water and mix in the dissolved starch. Stir to combine.  Soak each serviette in the starchy water, making sure to saturate each one. Wring out the serviettes to remove as much excess water as possible. Hang the serviettes to dry, but remove them from the line when they are still a little damp. Open your ironing board and preheat your iron. Use the proper setting based on your serviette fabric. When the serviettes are still slightly damp, press each one individually to remove all creases and wrinkles. Store flat until you are ready to fold them.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check the material on your hat’s tag Use a hat frame if you’re worried about your hat losing its shape. Put the hat on the top rack of your dishwasher. Don’t wash hats with your regular dishes. Fill the detergent compartment with 1 tbsp (27 g) of Borax or non-bleach cleaner. Run the shortest and coldest wash cycle without heat drying.

Answer: before washing it. Look for the manufacturer’s tag inside the ballcap. Materials like cotton or synthetics are safe to put inside your dishwasher, but cardboard or wool could get damaged. If the tag says “hand wash only,” don’t put the hat in the dishwasher.  If your hat has frayed edges or tears, consider washing the hat by hand instead. If the hat has sentimental value, don’t put it in the dishwasher since there’s always a small risk of damage. Hat frames or shapers are used to protect the shape and prevent bending. Open the frame and set your hat over the convex dome so the brim is inside. Snap the frame closed to secure the hat. Hat frames can be purchased online or at a specialty hat store. Keep the hat on the top rack only so it’s the furthest away from the dishwasher’s heating element. If you aren’t using a hat frame, prop the middle of the hat on one of the prongs if your dishwasher has them. Any plastic in your hat might melt if it’s placed on the bottom rack. Make sure there are no dirty dishes in your dishwasher when you clean your hat. Food residue could lift off of your dining ware and get caught in the hat’s seams. Gather hats from your family or those you live with to make one large load of hats. Avoid any dish detergents with lemon or bleach since this could change your hat’s color. Pour the detergent directly into the compartment before sealing it. Close your dishwasher once you’ve added the detergent.  Don’t use laundry detergent in your dishwasher. To see how your detergent will affect the hat, rub a small amount on a discreet spot of your hat to see if the color changes. Change the settings on your dishwasher to the coldest and shortest setting possible. Turn off the heating cycle if you can to prevent any creases or wrinkles in your hat. Use the delicate or china setting on your dishwasher if your machine has those options.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make a paste from baking soda and warm water. Scrub the paste into the stain and let it sit for up to an hour. Rinse away the paste with cool water. Air dry the hat completely.

Answer: Put 4 tablespoons (59.1 ml) (55.2 g) of baking soda in a bowl and add 1⁄4 cup (59 ml) of warm water. Mix the ingredients together with a spoon until it forms a paste. Use the spoon to apply the mixture to the stained area. Scrub it into the fabric with a clean toothbrush, then let it soak in for up to an hour. After an hour has passed, run cool water over the areas you covered with the paste. Keep rinsing until all the baking soda is gone. Press a clean towel into the fabric to absorb excess water. Then, allow the hat to air dry completely before wearing it again. Placing it near an open window or a fan can speed up the process. Don’t dry the hat in the clothes dryer or in direct sunlight, as the hat might get damaged by the heat and light.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Understand what to look for. Attempt to triangulate their general location. View their social media activity. Check LinkedIn. Speak to a mutual acquaintance. Try meeting the person in a neutral location.

Answer:
There's a lot of free information about most people on the Internet, most of which was put there by the people in question. If you want to find a person's address, you may be able to figure out their general location (e.g., a city) and work backward from there. This requires an appreciation of context. For example, if you're looking at a location to which you know the person often travels, you can infer that they live relatively close to that location. If you can find three (or more) sources which list their current location as being in a specific city, you can assume that they're in that city for the time being. Knowing this will narrow down your search.  Social media is the easiest way to determine this information, as most social media services will make your current city and state (or country) public information by default. You can also check graduation records, news articles, and other public records to see if you can find additional information about the person. You can learn a lot from viewing someone's common activities on social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. Look for instances of any of the following:  Check-ins to places where they often eat or visit Relationships with other social media users (especially mutual friends) Location tagging (common on Instagram), especially when near their home Occupation or job history If you can find the person on LinkedIn, you can most likely figure out where they graduated from, what they currently do for a living, and where they work. This information will confirm their general location, and may even help you determine which part of the city (e.g., which neighborhood) they live in. If you know someone who frequently visits the person whose address you're trying to find, you may be able to talk to that person in order to determine where the person currently resides.  You might even ask the person if they want to visit the person whom you want to find with you in order to get directions to the person's address. In general, you'll want to avoid asking where the person lives outright. Determining the person's neighborhood and working your way down from there is a less creepy way to approach the conversation. If you absolutely can't find a person's address but you do know where they work or where they tend to eat, you can try hanging out near the location in order to run into them when they arrive. Keep in mind that this should be your last resort, and should only be considered if you and the person whom you want to meet are on good terms.  Using this method to stalk or harass someone is illegal, and may result in criminal charges or other consequences. Do not follow someone to their house without explicit permission from them.
