Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Purchase a hair dye. Follow the instructions on the package. Rinse your hair.

Answer: Once you've bleached your roots and they're the right lightness, you're ready to apply a demi or semi-permanent dye. In other words, your roots may still be orange, but another application of bleach would make them much lighter than the rest of your hair. Buy a hair dye that is lighter than your hair. For example, if your hair is a dark blonde and you don't want it any darker, buy a shade of hair dye in a platinum blonde. Because the hair dye will layer over your dark blonde, applying a matching shade of dark blonde hair dye will darken it up. A lighter shade of blonde will keep your hair light and bright, but help mask the orange. Make sure that you evenly coat your roots so that all orange and yellow sections are saturated. Because the demi-permanent color doesn't have bleach, it's not a big deal if it touches the rest of your hair, but try to keep it only on your roots. Leave on for the amount of time specified on the package. Check your roots before rinsing if you can still see hints of orange or yellow, you can keep the dye on for a bit longer. The bleach should have gotten your orange roots down to the desired lightness, the toner should have removed some of the brassiness, and the demi-permanent hair color should have masked any remaining bits of orange. It can be really hard to bleach your hair on your own, so this process may take some practice. With a little bit of experimentation, you won't even break a sweat at the sight of bright orange roots.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Train your tree the way you want it to grow. Ensure each tree has a single vertical trunk. Prune your tree's lowest limbs to just above your head to ensure easy access. Remove dead upper branches.

Answer: To produce a good crop, your trees need ample sunlight. Allow the upper branches to spread so they take in as much sunlight as possible. Your major pruning to upper branches comes during the first 10 to 15 years of the pecan tree's life. This is essential for quality growth. When it comes to training a young tree through pruning, you can decide what shape you would prefer the tree to grow into. For example, this could be a standard 'vase' shape where the main trunk splits into three trunks. It will take several years to see results but always stick to your original plan. As the trees grow, you will need access to the ground beneath your tree to water, fertilise, weed, and harvest pecans. Your goal is to walk underneath your tree without scraping your face. You will also need room for the mechanical equipment used for orchard management, so as you prune your trees, try to shape each tree to a standard pattern. Sometimes upper branches will die because of wind damage, freeze damage, disease and improper care. This is where your tree saw and lopper will come in handy. Remove these as soon as you notice them to stop the cause of death spreading.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check to see if the brass is solid. Look for lacquer. Wipe the object gently with soap and water.

Answer: You'll want to clean brass-plated and solid brass items differently, so it's important to check first. The easiest way to check is to try to stick a magnet to it. Magnets won't stick to solid brass, but they will stick to brass-plated steel and other metals. If the brass is solid, you can follow some of the same general steps. However, solid brass can take slightly harsher chemicals, such as a strong brass cleaner, rather than just a mild one. Brass-plated objects often have a thin coating of lacquer to help protect the brass. If the brass-plated item is lacquer-coated, you should stick to soap and water when cleaning it. Anything else will remove the lacquer. Unlacquered (not comparable) items will tarnish over time, while lacquered items won't. However, lacquered items may show tiny black spots, as the lacquer cracks. You can also test an inconspicuous place with a bit of brass cleaner. If it leaves a black spot on your rag, that means it's not lacquered. If it doesn't, it's likely lacquered, and you shouldn't clean it with anything harsh. Using a soft rag, wipe the brass-plated item down gently with dishwashing soap and water. A microfiber cloth is ideal. You don't want to scrub too hard, as you can rub off the brass or lacquer.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Ask open-ended questions. Continue with follow-up questions if discussion doesn't start immediately. Break the group into smaller groups for projects or intimate discussion. Give positive reinforcement. Suggest an energizer activity if you have a long meeting. Deal with disagreements by finding common ground. Encourage other people to lead future discussions. Create an evaluation process.

Answer:
Avoid asking questions to the group with yes or no answers. If they must be yes/no answers, ask group members to elaborate on why that is the answer. Good follow-up questions include "How does that change the way you feel about X,Y,Z?" and "How do you think that applies to other issues that we are discussing?" If you are afraid that the group is too large to encourage adequate participation, small group work is a good way to encourage everyone in a group to interact. Encourage positive interactions. Thank people for their contributions. Don't be critical. Even if your group is created for critiques, criticism should be only give in small doses. Start each comment with positive reinforcement. Between subjects, encourage people to play a game, watch a related YouTube clip or get up and move around. It is your job as the group leader to recognize potential arguments and try to move on in a productive way. Say, "It sounds like we have a difference of opinion." "Different points of view are encouraged in our group." "It sounds like you both feel passionate about this." "It seems that we can agree on X,Y,Z." This is a good way for people to feel joint ownership of a group and its goals. Ask people to take a questionnaire or discuss changes or issues wit you.
