Article: Combine 0.25  tsp (1.2 mL) translucent liquid dishwashing detergent, like Joy or Dawn, with 8  fl oz (240 mL) of lukewarm water. Dip a white cloth or paper towel into the detergent solution and blot the stain. Then, press the cloth or paper towel into the stain for several seconds. Wait for 15 minutes as the detergent dissolves the stain, then use a clean, dry white cloth or paper towel to remove excess liquid.  Remember to perform a patch test before applying the detergent. You may need to repeat this application a few times for it to be effective. To make a vinegar solution, combine 8  fl oz (240 mL) of white vinegar with 16  fl oz (470 mL) of water. Dip a white cloth or paper towel into the vinegar solution and blot the stain. Then, press the cloth or paper towel into the stain for several seconds. Wait for 15 minutes, then blot the area with lukewarm water to rinse. Allow the area to dry. This step is important in removing residual detergent from your carpet. That way, dirt won’t stick to the treated area. If the stain is especially bad, you might need to apply extra pressure during the drying process. Cover the stain with a 0.5 in (1.3 cm) thick stack of white paper towels or a couple of clean, white rags and a place a heavy object, such as a glass baking dish, on top. Let it sit for 15 minutes. If the weight is coloured or porous, put a plastic bag between it and the paper towel. This will protect the weight and prevent dye from leaking into the carpet. Using a damp paper towel or cloth, moisten the spot and blot. Allow the area to dry. Detergent may not completely remove the stain. If this is the case, dampen the spot with 3% hydrogen peroxide and allow it to sit for 1 hour, then blot. Repeat this process until the stain is removed. Then, cover the stain with kitchen towel and a heavy object and allow the area to dry again.  If you cannot remove the stain, try the next method or consider calling a carpet cleaning company. Keep in mind that hydrogen peroxide can have a bleaching effect on carpets, so make sure to do a spot test on an inconspicuous part of the carpet before you do this. Wait 20 minutes after applying hydrogen peroxide to see the full effects.

Make a detergent solution. Apply the detergent solution. Follow up with a vinegar solution. Use a heavy object to treat particularly bad stains. Rinse the area. Apply 3% hydrogen peroxide if the stain persists.

Problem: Article: The decorating process can be messy, so make sure you protect your table or other painting surface by spreading out newspaper. Gesso is a primer used to prepare surfaces for acrylic paint. It dries hard and white, both covering up the brown of the cardboard or any ink on the cardboard and providing a smooth surface for the even application of paint.  Gesso can be purchased in any craft or art supply store. Using a clean brush, apply the gesso in an even coat to the entire surface of the house. Use long, parallel strokes to ensure an even coating. Let the gesso dry completely before painting the house. When the gesso has dried, you’ll have a white surface on which you can sketch any details you might want to include on your house. Using your ruler, sketch out flowers, eaves, or anything else you want to paint on your house. If you don't want to cut out windows in an earlier step, you can draw and paint them instead. Use a small brush on the smaller house so you can control the detail, or else you might end up with a smudgy door or windows. For the playhouse, you can use a larger brush.  Paint the exterior walls first, being careful not to let the paint bleed over the lines you’ve sketched for your doors and windows. Paint the background first, then add the details. Clean the brush with fresh water when switching between colors. If you have to apply one color over another — a black doorknob on a red door, for example — let the bottom layer of paint dry completely before applying the second color. Apply the paint in thin layers, so it doesn’t drip down. Even if you have newspaper under the house, the dripping will leave an uneven texture on the surface of the house. Leave the house in the sun, if possible, to speed up the drying process. After an hour or two, lightly brush your finger along the paint surface to see if any comes off on your skin. If not, you’re ready to apply a second layer of paint to cover up the gesso underneath. Once your second layer of paint has dried, you’re finished.
Summary: Lay out newspaper. Coat the house in a layer of gesso. Sketch details in pencil. Paint the house. Let the paint dry before applying a second layer.

A crucial part of being ready to slip a punch in a fight is having an alert mind and a ready body. It’s a good idea to get your body warmed up by stretching and jumping a little. This will help you be ready and awake in order to slip punches when you see them coming your way. Some great stretches to perform before you jump in the boxing ring are the standing toe-up Achilles stretch, assisted reverse chest stretch, and rotating stomach stretch.  Always warm up your neck to prevent stiffness. This will help you move more quickly when you need to slip a punch. To warm up your neck, try loosening up your jaw and rolling your head around on your neck. Roll your head forward, then all the way around to the back in a half-circle. Then rotate it the other way. Do this for several minutes. Learning how you naturally react in boxing situations is a great way to avoid becoming predictable to your opponent. Avoid predictability while slipping a punch by learning some common moves:  Throw a jab a little left of center to catch your opponent off-guard. Throw or feint one jab, then throw another quick one in the hopes that your opponent won't recover quickly enough. Often, having quick reflexes is not enough. During a fight, you can become punch drunk or tired and lose your faculties. Because of this, it’s helpful to study your opponent in the beginning of the fight and learn their tells. Watching your opponent can help you learn when they are going to throw a punch and what kind of punch it will be. Don't make too many assumptions about your opponent’s behavior. There is a chance that they are trying to get you into habits that will set you up for a knockout punch.
