Don't dye or otherwise process your hair in the months leading up to the bleaching. Bleaching your hair will work much better if your hair is relatively strong and unprocessed. Your hair will withstand the rigorous bleaching process better, too.   Avoid chemical-laden hair sprays, gels, serums, and other products. Use heat-styling tools as little as possible. If you have to, apply a heat-protecting product to your hair beforehand. Decide what shade you're aiming for, then head to your local beauty store. Bleach powder comes in either packets or tubs; it can be more economical to buy a tub if you're planning on bleaching your hair more than once.  Grab a tint brush (for applying products), a bowl, and plastic wrap. If you have very dark hair, buy red gold corrector. You add it to the bleach powder to increase its effectiveness, so you don't have to bleach twice. If you have long, thick hair, you may need two tubes of corrector. Developers come in strengths ranging from 10 to 40. If your hair is blonde or light brown, use a 20 or 30 volume developer. If your hair is black or very dark, you may need 40 volume developer; this is very damaging so try to avoid if possible. The lower the volume, the less damaging it is to hair. If you aren’t sure what strength to use for your hair, go with a 20-volume developer. If you want to go platinum, you'll need toner. It takes the yellow/orange color out of just-bleached hair. Some toners can make hair white, some create warm golden tones, and others create a silvery effect. If you aren't sure, ask someone at the beauty supply store to assist you. These chemicals are strong, so crack a window! Set up all your equipment within easy reach so you can work more easily and minimize the amount of fumes you breathe. Put on plastic gloves before you get started to protect your hands from chemical burns. If bleach gets on your skin at any point, wipe and rinse it off immediately.

Q: You can use the dowsing rods to locate objects or items you have lost, such as jewellery. Start by holding the rods properly in your hands. Then, relax and close your eyes. Visualize the object you have lost in your mind. You may want to take a few deep breaths to calm down and relax. Focus your mind on the lost object and try to channel that focus into the divining rods. You may ask the rods out loud or internally. You may say, “Where is the object I have lost?” or “Find the object.” This will project your intent onto the rods. You should then hold the rods steady and straight in your hands and let them direct you. Do not resist any pulls or tugs you feel on the rods. You should walk in the direction the rods seem to be leading you to. Eventually, the rods may lead you to the lost object.
A: Relax and visualize the lost object. Ask the rods to lead you to the object. Let the rods direct you to the object.

Article: Although the classic combination is hot tea and whiskey, you can also make a variation of the drink using cold or iced green tea.  Cold green tea mixed with whiskey is considered by some to be a drink common in China. Some people put Irish whiskey, sweet bourbons or scotches into iced green tea instead. You could also use iced tea. Green tea is a neutral enough flavor, which is why mixing it with whiskey can spice it up. However, it’s not the classic way to make the drink. Really, you should try variations that play to your tastes. There is not one single way to make a drink, so play around and be creative! Although combining whiskey with hot tea is a great way to make a drink, if you don’t have any whiskey around or don’t like its flavor, you could try other hard liquor.  Scotch mixed with Earl Grey tea is one combination you might want to try. You could also mix Bourbon or Scotch with tea. Some people make the drink with brandy.  Gunpowder teas have a smoky flavor that goes well with a full-bodied and equally smoky Scotch. There are many different types of hard liquor you can mix with hot tea. Maybe you want a hot toddy but you are trying to avoid caffeine or simply don’t like the taste of tea. There are variations of this hot whiskey drink without tea.  Place 2 ounces (.05 kilogram) of whiskey in a large microwaveable mug. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and pour hot water into the mug. You could try using hot cider instead of tea. The process works the same way. This is a good variation for people trying to stay away from caffeine. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Now, place the mug in the microwave for 1 minute and take it out when it is piping hot. Add a lemon slice and drink.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Try using cold green tea. Put other liquor into the tea. Go without tea.

Article: An EIN is an Employer Identification Number, and it’s like a Social Security number the IRS uses to keep track of businesses. Even if you don’t have any actual employees, you’ll still need to apply for an EIN, but it’s fast, free, and easy. All you’ll need to know is some basic information about your nonprofit, including a contact person, the address, the type of business entity, and what your foundation does. Fill out the online application at https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/apply-for-an-employer-identification-number-ein-online. Form 1023 is the IRS application for 501(c)3 tax exempt status. As you might expect, the IRS wants to vet any non-taxpaying organization very carefully. As a result, Form 1023 is really an application packet, and at nearly 70 pages, a long one at that. The application fee is anywhere from $400-$850.  When the stringency of the application process is coupled with potential impact of a rejected application, Form 1023 is not considered a do-it-yourself type of application.  It is strongly recommended you use the services of an attorney, accountant, or otherwise experienced professional to complete Form 1023. Anticipate that cost being anywhere from $2500-$5000. Even the IRS’ very conservative estimate cautions that Form 1023 will take a layman 100 hours or more. If you do choose to complete Form 1023 yourself, be prepared to provide detailed information on your nonprofit’s purpose, financial picture, corporate structure, activities, and compensation to employees and members of the board or trustees, as well as copies of corroborating documents.  You can examine Form 1023 at https://www.irs.gov/uac/about-form-1023. Form 990-PF (PF stands for private foundation) is like an income tax return for foundations. Even if your organization is applying for (or has received) tax exempt status, you’ll still have to complete Form 990-PF.  In essence, Form 990-PF is a detailed financial report of your foundation’s activities. You will need to know anything relevant to your balance sheet and current accounts, including revenues, operating expenses, and in particular, charitable distributions and income or losses from investments. At “only” thirteen pages, Form 990-PF is more manageable than Form 1023, and it’s more feasible for a novice to complete it. Nonetheless, it’s the type of tax form for which most people would enlist the services of an accountant. You can find a copy of Form 990-PF at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-access/f990pf_accessible.pdf. Form 5227 is a tax form applicable to trusts specifically. Both charitable trusts and non-charitable trusts must file Form 5227 (in addition to Form 990-PF for charitable trusts). It asks for much the same type of information Form 990-PF does—identifying information, gross income, investments, etc.—so it shouldn’t require much extra time to complete if you choose to tackle it yourself.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Apply for an EIN. Fill out Form 1023. Fill out Form 990-PF. Fill out Form 5227 (if you are organized as a trust).
