Some tournaments are run using basic checkers rules, referred to as Go As You Please, GAYP, or freestyle. Others follow the 3-move rules, which limit players' options at the start of the game to a set of three move sequences. (The 3-move rules greatly reduce the possibility of a draw between skilled players.) More recent books will contain up-to-date strategic advances, but this is less important if you're a beginner. Browsing the checkers shelf at a library or bookstore can help you find a book that is helpful and fun to read. Playing against more experienced players who are willing to share their knowledge is a great way to improve your game. Whether that means entering tournaments or finding your local amateur expert, the better your opponents are, the more you'll learn.

Article: Most flowers that are considered annuals are self-pollinating. Each self-pollinating flower has a stamen to produce pollen, a stigma to collect pollen, and a pistil leading to the ovule. Identify these structures in the flower. This will allow you to collect and move pollen to and from the correct structures.  The stamina (or stamens) look like little antennae that carry pollen. The pistil is usually in the center of the flower, and the stigma is on top of the pistil. The ovule can be found at the base of the pistil. Some self-pollinating flowers, such as lilies and roses, are also capable of cross-pollination. Pollen reaches the ovule by travelling down the pistil. The stop of the pistil, or stigma, is designed to collect pollen and move it down to the ovule. Use your brush to transfer pollen onto the stigma.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Identify organs located on the flowers for self-pollinating plants. Transfer the pollen to the ovule.

Article: First, you will need to decide on a color for your streaks. If it’s your first time, it’s usually better to go with a color that is only slightly lighter or darker than your own hair color. But, the color you desire is ultimately your choice. You may want blonde streaks, or pink or purple streaks. If you're unsure what will look good in your hair, start small by streaking one piece of hair with your favorite color. If you love it, you can always add more.  Some people choose to have one pretty pink or purple streak running down the side. This adds a subtle beauty to your style. For a punk look, add a lot of streaks extending from the crown of your head down to the tips. Choose blue, green, or platinum blonde. If you want to go blonde or up to two shades lighter, you may not need a hair dye. You can get away with using bleach. Consider how many streaks you would like to put in your hair. You may want a few streaks for a subtle effect, or a head full of streaks to dramatically change your hair color. It’s important to plan what your desired outcomes is before beginning the dyeing process. If you aren’t confident about dyeing your hair on your own, it’s better to start with only a few streaks. The supplies you get will be partially determined by the natural color of your hair. If you have light hair and are planning to streak it with a darker color, you do not need to bleach your hair first.  If you have dark or medium hair and want a light or unnatural color, you'll definitely need to bleach before streaking to make sure the color comes out looking bright and beautiful. You can buy your supplies at a beauty supply shop, like Sally’s Beauty Supply. The supplies you will need are:  Bleach powder, which comes in either packets or tubs. If you're doing just a few streaks, you won't need much. Crème developer, which makes the bleach work. If your hair is already blonde or light brown, use a 20 or 30 volume developer. Never get a volume higher than 40, or you'll damage your hair. Red Gold Corrector is added to the bleach powder to increase its effectiveness, so you don't have to bleach twice. You will need this if your hair is on the darker side. "Purple shampoo," which is a special shampoo designed to reduce yellow tones in bleached or lightened hair. A tint brush, a bowl, rubber gloves, and aluminum foil.
