The story line is very linear and predictable. But that is part of what makes this a great movie. Watching it you will have a hard time figuring out that this really was made within the last few years.For a great laugh and a good movie get this one in your library now!!!

Title: The Brood Movie plot: Psychotherapist Hal Raglan runs the Somafree Institute where he performs a technique called \"psychoplasmics\", encouraging patients with mental disturbances to let go of their suppressed emotions through physiological changes to their bodies. One of his patients is Nola Carveth, a severely disturbed woman who is legally embattled with her husband Frank for custody of their five-year-old daughter Candice. When Frank discovers bruises and scratches on Candice following a visit with Nola, he informs Raglan of his intent to stop visitation rights. Wanting to protect his patient, Raglan begins to intensify the sessions with Nola to resolve the issue quickly. During the therapy sessions, Raglan discovers that Nola was physically and verbally abused by her self-pitying alcoholic mother, and neglected by her co-dependent alcoholic father, who refused to protect Nola out of shame and denial. Meanwhile, Frank, intending to invalidate Raglan's methods, questions Jan Hartog, a former Somafree patient dying of psychoplasmic-induced lymphoma. Frank leaves Candice with her grandmother Juliana, and the two spend the evening viewing old photographs; Juliana informs Candice that Nola was frequently hospitalized as a child, and often exhibited strange unexplained wheals on her skin that doctors were unable to diagnose. While returning to the kitchen, Juliana is attacked and bludgeoned to death by a small, dwarf-like child. Candice is traumatized, but otherwise unharmed. Juliana's estranged husband Barton returns for the funeral, and attempts to contact Nola at Somafree, but Raglan turns him away. Frank invites his daughter's teacher Ruth Mayer home for dinner to discuss Candice, but Barton interrupts with a drunken phone call from Juliana's home, demanding that they both go to Somafree in force to see Nola. Frank leaves to console Barton, leaving Candice in Ruth's care. While he is away, Ruth accidentally answers a phone call from Nola, who, recognizing her voice, insults her and angrily warns her to stay away from her family....???\noutput answer: The closure of Somafree\n\ninput question: Extract the answer to the following question from the movie plot.

Title: That Championship Season Movie plot: It has been 25 years since the 1957 Fillmore High School (fictional) basketball team won the Pennsylvania state championship. The coach and four of the victors regularly gather to relive the glory of their shining moment. As teenage teammates they could read each other's moves on the court without fail. As middle-aged men, each is facing his own different mid-life crisis. With a former coach that still addresses problems as if his boys are having a bad game, the friends' longtime loyalty to one another begins to unravel. George Sitkowski (Bruce Dern) is mayor of Scranton and engaged in a fierce campaign for re-election. James Daley (Stacy Keach) is an overwrought and underpaid school principal while his brother, Tom (Martin Sheen), has become a drifter with a serious drinking problem. Phil Romano (Paul Sorvino) is the wealthiest among them. He often bends the law and even betrays a friend to indulge his own needs, but George badly needs his support. The intended celebratory nature of this reunion is quickly dissipated. Various contentions arise among the four old teammates, who quickly turn on one another. The coach's bigotryâthen and nowâand his selfish disregard for fair play are brought again to the surface. The absence of the team's star player, who hates the coach, serves to further spotlight the futility and hollowness of this gathering.???\noutput answer: Coach\n\ninput question: Extract the answer to the following question from the movie plot.

Title: The Mask Movie plot: Stanley Ipkiss is a shy and unlucky bank clerk working at the local Edge City bank. He is frequently ridiculed by everyone around him, except for his Jack Russell Terrier Milo, and his co-worker and best friend Charlie Schumaker. Meanwhile, gangster Dorian Tyrell, owner of the Coco Bongo nightclub, plots to overthrow his boss Niko. One day, Tyrell sends his singer girlfriend Tina Carlyle into Stanley's bank to record its layout, in preparation to rob the bank. Stanley is attracted to Tina, and she seems to reciprocate. After being denied entrance to the Coco Bongo, he finds a wooden mask near the city's harbor. Placing it on his face transforms him into a zoot-suited, green-faced, bizarre trickster known as the Mask, who is able to cartoonishly alter himself and his surroundings at will. Stanley scares off a street gang that attempts to rob him by turning a balloon into a Tommy gun, and then he exacts revenge on his tormentors; he scares his grouchy landlady, and injures the con-artist repairmen who did unnecessary work on his car and charged him for it. The next morning, Stanley encounters detective Lieutenant Kellaway and newspaper reporter Peggy Brandt investigating the Mask's activity of the previous night. To attend Tina's performance, he again becomes the Mask to raid the bank, inadvertently foiling Tyrell's plan in the process. At the Coco Bongo, Stanley dances exuberantly with Tina, whom he ends up kissing. Following a confrontation with Tyrell for disrupting the bank robbery, Stanley flees leaving behind a scrap of cloth from his suit that transforms back into his pajamas, while Tyrell is arrested by the police as a suspect for the bank robbery. Based on the shred of cloth, Kellaway suspects Stanley to be the bank robber; he believes that \"there can't be two idiots with those kind of pajamas.\" Stanley later consults a psychiatrist who has recently published a book on masks, and is told that the object may be a depiction of Loki, the Norse god of darkness and mischief.

"content": "Write some highlights for the following article:\n\nBy. Adam Crafton. What a difference a year makes. At the beginning of April last year, Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United headed into the derby at Old Trafford 15 points clear of Manchester City. On Tuesday evening, it is Manuel Pellegrini’s City who will stroll into their neighbours’ backyard with a strut of arrogance, knowing United’s status has been diminished to that of inferiors. This time it is they who sit in the ascendency, 12 points ahead of David Moyes’ ailing side. A win would convert 12 into 15. Damning: Our graphic shows years of United dominance, with the difference in points between the two sides going into Old Trafford derbies heavily in their favour, but the pendulum appears to have swung. Bubble's burst: David Moyes will be desperate to beat Manchester City at Old Trafford on Tuesday night. Saviour? Wayne Rooney scores his wonder goal against West Ham last weekend. Focus: Manchester City's players look fired up in their training session ahead of the derby at Old Trafford. Two more victories in City’s games in hand on United and the gap would become 21. It is a prospect barely worth thinking about for those at Old Trafford, offering a frightening snapshot of just how far United have plummeted in the post-Ferguson era. Yet there would also be little surprise if United were to surrender once more. After all, they have won just one match in 12 against the top nine in the Barclays Premier League this season, losing seven of those. It is not difficult to see, therefore, why City are the bookmakers’ favourites to win a match at Old Trafford for the first time since the inception of the Premier League. City have inflicted the odd flesh wound in the past, of course. Kevin Keegan’s side, with Jon Macken up front rather than Sergio Aguero, as the main man beat United 4-1 at the City of Manchester Stadium in 2004. More cuttingly, there was that 6-1. two years ago at Old Trafford, leaving Ferguson ‘shattered’ after the. ‘worst result in my history, ever’. And then there was the last-gasp. Aguero goal to snatch the title from United in the most dramatic manner. possible. These were. body-blows to the United system but they were swiftly corrected, first. through the signing of Robin van Persie, ahead of City, and. then by reclaiming the title in Ferguson’s final season. Blip? Shaun Goater scores for Manchester City in the 3-1 win at Maine Road in 2002. Unprecedented: Trevor Sinclair celebrates back in 2004 during the 4-1 rout of their rivals. Old rivalry: City fans goad then opposition manager Sir Alex Ferguson in the 2004 victory. It's been 44 years since Manchester City beat United in three consecutive league matches. City could break this run if they win at Old Trafford on Wednesday. The Blues won 2-1 at Old Trafford last April before battering David Moyes' side 4-1 in his first derby at the Etihad in September. So, can they make it three on the bounce once again? It is a very long time indeed since United were last unequivocally considered the weaker force in Manchester and that should be a serious concern within the walls of Old Trafford. Certainly, it has never been the case in the Premier League era. Indeed, only twice before have United entered a Manchester derby at home in the Premier League trailing City on points. Before the 6-1 in 2012, City were two points ahead of Ferguson’s side but that was after just eight games. The only other occasion was an anomaly, in September 2005, when United were one point behind Stuart Pearce’s City. City had played four games to United three, meaning that particular statistic was rather skewed. Another rout: City hammered United at the Etihad earlier this season with Sergio Aguero scoring. Not you again: Aguero struck the winner at Old Trafford last season with a powerful effort after a nice run. Relief for United: Aguero has been ruled out of Tuesday's derby with a hamstring injury. The turnaround can perhaps be more readily attributed to United’s decline than City’s development in this past year. Intriguingly, for all the calmness instilled by their phlegmatic manager, City are only four points better off than they were after 28 games last season. United, by contrast, are 26 points worse off than they were at the same stage last season. All things considered, it does not require much this season to be more formidable than Moyes’ side. Big-game player: Yaya Toure has been in exceptional form of late for City. Unstoppable: Rooney scores a tremendous overhead kick against City in 2011. Tormentor: Rooney has a penchant for scoring against City in Manchester derbies. But we should not forget that is new territory for City supporters, for the first time indisputably the dominant outfit. Previously, this would be the stuff of printed T-shirts. Now, it is par for the course. This can be rammed home if Pellegrini’s side secure a third consecutive league victory at Old Trafford on Tuesday night. That has not happened for more than 40 years, when City won five games in a row at the home of United between 1967 and 1972. Another enemy: Steven Gerrard celebrates after scoring against Manchester United. Sore sight: Luis Suarez netted Liverpool's third at Old Trafford on a dismal day for United fans. It would be the latest of a succession of records to topple under Moyes and fresh on the back of a 3-0 humiliation by Liverpool, defeat against City would provide compelling evidence that the tide has turned irretrievably in Manchester. Dropping below City or Liverpool is one thing, to fall below the two is another thing entirely. But that is the unacceptable reality that the rank-and-file at Old Trafford may be just obliged to accept come Tuesday evening at The Theatre of Dreams. Bygone era: Francis Lee (left) was part of a Manchester City team that dominated United for a period. Glory days: City fans run on the pitch at Old Trafford in 1974 after Denis Law's goal relegated United.\n\nHighlights:"

At that time Wednesday, reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward were killed by a former employee of the Virginia TV station. \n \n During the moment of silence, WDBJ showed photos of the two victims during the live broadcast of its \"Mornin'\" show. \n \n Just before the moment of silence, anchor Kim McBroom joined hands with weatherman Leo Hirsbrunner and anchor Steve Grant, who came in from sister station KYTV in Springfield, Missouri, to help the grieving station. \n \n She said: \"Joining hands here on the desk. It's the only way to do it.\" \n \n ___ \n \n 6:40 a.m. \n \n The family of the gunman who fatally shot a reporter and cameraman during a live broadcast has issued a statement offering condolences to the victims' loved ones. \n \n The statement from the family of Vester Lee Flanagan II, who went by Bryce Williams as an on-air reporter, was read on several TV stations, which said it was released by a family representative. Flanagan killed reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward on Wednesday morning. Vicki Gardner, a local Chamber of Commerce official who was being interviewed live, was wounded. \n \n It says: \"It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness that we express our deepest condolenses to the families of Alison Parker and Adam Ward. We are also praying for the recovery of Vicki Gardner. Our thoughts and prayers at this time are with the victims' families and the WBDJ7 NEWS family. Words cannot express the hurt that we feel for the victtims. Our family is asking that the media respect our privacy.\" \n \n ___ \n \n 6:30 a.m. \n \n A moment of silence will be observed at WDBJ-TV at the time of the fatal shooting of two of the Virginia's station's employees during a live interview. \n \n Anchor Kim McBroom said during Thursday morning's broadcast that a moment of silence will be observed at 6:45 a.m. At that time Wednesday, reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward were killed by a former employee of the station. \n \n ___ \n \n 6:20 a.m. \n \n The husband of the surviving victim of an on-air shooting in Virginia says she's doing better and is in fair condition. \n \n Tim Gardner appeared Thursday on the \"Mornin'\" show of WDBJ-TV. His wife was being interviewed Wednesday for a live segment of the same show when a former station employee opened fire, killing a reporter and a cameraman. \n \n On Thursday, Tim Gardner stood before a memorial set up to the victims outside the station in Roanoke. A reporter from a sister station in Missouri who came to Virginia to help grieving staff interviewed him. \n \n Tim Gardener noted the support from friends and the community, and said anyone who wants to help can pray for his wife or go out and enjoy Smith Mountain Lake.

She and cameraman Adam Ward were killed Wednesday during a live interview segment on WDBJ-TV's \"Mornin'\" show. \n \n Hurst appeared on that same show Thursday at the anchor desk to offer a remembrance. He recalled how Parker's voice could light up a room with its kindness and joy, and how excited she was about her work, including an upcoming piece on hospice care. \n \n He said: \"Alison, what great things she could have done.\" \n \n Hurst also said he will take a brief break from his anchor role. \n \n Morning anchor Kim McBroom told Hurst that he and Parker \"were like Barbie and Ken — just the perfect couple.\" \n \n ___ \n \n 5:45 a.m. \n \n A grief counselor has joined the WDBJ-TV newscasters at the anchor desk for a morning-show segment the day after two station employees were killed in a shooting during a live broadcast. \n \n Anchor Kim McBroom, her voice faltering at times during the Thursday newscast, called it \"a show like no other.\" She was on the air Wednesday morning just after reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward were fatally shot during a live interview. \n \n McGroom asked the grief counselor: \"As a community, how do we take steps to move forward after something like this?\" \n \n Counselor Thomas Milam said it's important to respect that people grieve in different ways and give them space to do so. He also said it's important to comfort children who may have seen coverage or had their schools on lock down. \n \n ___ \n \n 5:40 a.m. \n \n During a live morning broadcast on WDBJ-TV, an anchor has read a statement from the father of the reporter killed on air just a day earlier. \n \n Anchor Kim McBroom read the statement Thursday during the Virginia station's \"Mornin'\" show. Reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward worked as a team for the show, and it was during a live segment Wednesday morning that they were fatally shot by a former WDBJ reporter. \n \n The statement from Andy Parker says: \"Our vivacious, ambitious, smart, engaging, hilarious, beautiful and immensely talented Alison was taken from the world. This is senseless, and our family is crushed.\" \n \n The station displayed the text of the statement as McBroom read it. \n \n ___ \n \n 5:20 a.m. \n \n WDBJ-TV is broadcasting live for its morning show a day after two of its employees were killed by a former reporter at the Virginia station. \n \n During the newscast, in a weather report, Leo Hirsbrunner recalled how one of the victims, cameraman Adam Ward, would check in with him every morning about the weather before he went out on assignment. \n \n Hirsbrunner said: \"I don't even know how to do weather on a day like this.\" His voice trembled at times while he finished giving the temperatures around the Roanoke area. \n \n As the segment ended, anchor Kim McBroom told him: \"Good job, partner. We're going to get through this together.\" \n \n McBroom also read a statement from Parker's family, her voice faltering as well. \n \n ___ \n \n 5:10 a.m. \n \n WDBJ-TV started its 5 a.m. newscast with an image of the two victims killed a day earlier in an on-air shooting with the words \"In Memory.\" \n \n Anchor Kim McBroom said on Thursday morning, \"We come to you with heavy hearts. Two of our own were shot during a live shot yesterday morning.\" She noted the outpouring of support that followed the deaths. \n \n \"We've had a lot of help,\" she added, before introducing Steve Grant, an anchor from a Missouri station who came to town to help. \n \n The station then went into a series of news pieces on the shooting, including ones about the criminal investigation, church services and a vigil at the White House. \n \n ___ \n \n 4:55 a.m. \n \n The news team at WDBJ-TV is regrouping for its first morning newscast a day after two of their own were killed. \n \n Morning anchor Kim McBroom briefly fought through tears as she prepared for the 5 a.m. newscast Thursday. She was on the air Wednesday when reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward were fatally shot during a live interview. \n \n On Thursday, McBroom was then joined on air by Steve Grant from sister station KYTV in Springfield, Missouri. While a few hugs were exchanged before the newscast, a dozen or so reporters and producers stayed focused on their work. \n \n Senior Vice President of Broadcasting Marcia Burdick of parent-company Schurz Communications answered phones, greeted guests at the door, and did whatever she could to keep the newsroom moving. ||||| These crawls are part of an effort to archive pages as they are created and archive the pages that they refer to.

Crawls of supported \"No More 404\" sites. ||||| Kevin Lamarque/Reuters \n \n Around 11 a.m Wednesday, we learned that Vester Flanagan, the main suspect in the on-air shooting deaths of two Virginia television journalists that morning, was allegedly posting to Twitter as he fled. The Twitter account @bryce_williams7—Flanagan, himself a television journalist and former co-worker of the victims, was known professionally as Bryce Williams—featured several personal remarks about the journalists who had been shot. “Alison made racist comments,” one post read, in apparent reference to shooting victim Alison Parker. “Adam went to hr on me after working with me one time!!!” read another, apparently referring to victim Adam Ward. Then, as if to confirm his identity, @bryce_williams7 posted a brief video of the attack taken from the shooter’s point of view, and noted that the clip was also available on his Facebook page. The video was graphic and horrifying. And, by 11:23 a.m., it was gone. \n \n So was everything else on the @bryce_williams7 account. At that point, with no forewarning or explanation, Twitter suspended the account, thus preventing the user from posting anything else and preventing the public from seeing anything that had been posted before. Soon thereafter, the Facebook and LinkedIn profiles allegedly belonging to the same Bryce Williams had also been suspended. Key sources of information about the main suspect in a major crime, apparently being offered by that very suspect, had disappeared from the Internet. The video was chilling, and I can understand why Twitter and Facebook hastened to remove it. The slain victims are real people who deserve to be treated with dignity, and that fact alone provided sufficient justification to remove the clip. But the decision to suspend the Bryce Williams accounts entirely seems less a matter of granting the victims dignity and more about not wanting to give offense. Every news organization and social media platform observes certain standards of decorum and decency. But sometimes odious material is of great value in understanding the news. Even as the events seemed to still be unfolding, Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn should have left the accounts up. \n \n Screenshot via Twitter \n \n Advertisement \n \n \n \n So far the companies have offered no public explanation of why they decided to suspend Williams’ profiles. Police may have asked them to do so, though I doubt it, given the brief interval between when the profiles began to attract wide notice and when they were removed. More likely, Twitter and Facebook removed the profiles of their own accord, because of the graphic material posted there and a reluctance to give a suspected murderer a platform. (As for LinkedIn, the job-history network presumably wanted to prevent Williams from using its blogging function.) They may have also wanted to deny Williams the sort of notoriety that might spawn copycat killings, but that’s a weak argument, given that Williams’ face has been plastered all over the television news channels all day. \n \n The scrubbings aren’t surprising—Facebook and Twitter are usually very quick to remove the profiles of alleged shooters—but they are disappointing. It’s understandable that these companies wouldn’t want to abet a suspected murderer’s message or otherwise give offense. With their takedowns, however, they prevented the public from accessing information pertinent to real-time news stories. In its pre-emptive strike, for example, LinkedIn also scrubbed valuable information about the suspect’s employment history. \n \n Like it or not, Twitter and Facebook are vital news sources in breaking-news situations, and they should not feel compelled to act in loco parentis. The information found on those accounts was useful for people who were following and trying to understand this story—and will remain so to those trying to access the historical record of these events in the future. Removing that information from social media doesn’t stop people from wanting to see it; it just makes them work a little harder to find cached copies of it. The fact is that the information posted to the Bryce Williams social media accounts has informed much of the subsequent major-media reporting on the story. The implication that journalists can benefit from this information but the public needs to be shielded from it is offensive. And while Facebook and Twitter have been known to suspend and ban accounts that engage in abusive behavior, there is a qualitative difference between silencing hate speech and silencing the speech of a man who has allegedly done a hateful thing. ||||| Readers were particularly dismayed that the newspaper tabloid published the graphic images of the attack that were uploaded by the shooter. \n \n The Aug. 27th front page of the New York Daily News, which displays the murder of two TV journalists in Virginia , was met with shock and condemnation on social media late Wednesday. \n \n The point-of-view stills were taken from a video recorded by the suspected gunman as he murdered his former colleagues, a reporter and a cameraman from WDBJ7. He ambushed the journalists on Wednesday morning while they were interviewing Vicki Gardner, executive director of the Smith Mountain Lake Regional Chamber of Commerce, in Moneta, Virginia. Footage of the attack was also broadcast live by the station. \n \n The suspect, Vester Lee Flanagan, waited until reporter Alison Parker, 24, and cameraman Adam Ward, 27, were filming their live shot before opening fire and killing them. Flanagan allegedly recorded the attack using a body-camera, then fled the scene. He later died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police say. \n \n Gardner, who was shot in the back during the attack, was recovering in the hospital Wednesday night following surgery. \n \n A Twitter account associated with Flanagan tweeted, \"I filmed the shooting see Facebook,\" where the video was posted. The body-cam video showed him waiting for the journalists to begin taping, and then shooting them. \n \n His Facebook and Twitter accounts were later suspended. \n \n While news organizations were free to make the call on showing images and videos of the slaying that were widely circulated online, most did not, given their graphic content. But the Daily News, which is known for its shocking coverage of events, went there, and many readers condemned the tabloid's decision. ||||| This screen shot shows the Twitter page of Bryce Williams, whose real name is Vester Lee Flanagan II, shortly after he fatally shot WDBJ-TV cameraman Adam Ward and reporter Alison Parker during a live broadcast in Moneta, Va., early Wednesday morning, Aug. 26, 2015. The station said Flanagan was also an employee at WDBJ and appeared on air as Bryce Williams. (Twitter via AP) \n \n Rage, narcissism, a gun and social media combined for a particularly excruciating display of horror Wednesday morning. After murdering two former colleagues during a live TV news stand-up, the Roanoke killer uploaded a horrifying message to his Twitter account: “I filmed the shooting see Facebook.” \n \n So now there were two awful videos — the live stand-up filmed by the videographer and the killer’s even more gruesome amateur version apparently taken with his phone. \n \n This instantly took over the news feeds of the world. If you were anywhere near the Internet, you wound up experiencing this crime. You couldn’t escape it. This was an event both intimate and universal, and shared at the speed of light. \n \n You may have realized the story had taken another terrible turn by the cries of co-workers saying, “Oh, my God.” The grief, too, went viral, as WDBJ7 co-workers and loved ones took to Twitter to mourn the murdered journalists, Alison Parker and Adam Ward. \n \n Social media didn’t cause this crime. Nor is this the first case of a murderer seeking infamy. There is a stripe of killer who wants publicity. These people often leverage whatever technology is at their disposal. \n \n Authorities have identified Vester Lee Flanagan as the suspect in the shootings deaths of journalists Alison Parker and Adam Ward during a live TV broadcast near Roanoke, Va. (Jorge Ribas/The Washington Post) \n \n That technology has become radically democratized in just the past few years. More than a billion people are on Facebook. We essentially have our own broadcast outlets now. And the Roanoke murders were committed by a man who had worked in the news business and knew how to reach an audience. \n \n There are fewer filters — or none at all. If you set your Twitter account on “autoplay,” then the murder video would play automatically without need for a click. People possessed by hate, homicidal impulses or the desire to terrorize the public are getting better at exploiting the power of social media. \n \n Social media’s astonishing rise has rendered it possible for amateurs to produce instantly viral words and images. Sometimes it’s something funny, or inappropriate — say, an Auschwitz selfie — but it can also be, as we saw Wednesday, a gruesome act. \n \n “In the old days, you imagine Bonnie and Clyde getting excited when they made the papers. Now they’re taking it into their own hands. They’re putting out the stories themselves. It’s depressing,” said Keith Campbell, a professor of psychology at the University of Georgia and the co-author of “The Narcissism Epidemic.” \n \n “This is not a mass shooting, per se, by a technical definition, but it is clearly an attention-seeking crime,” said his co-author, Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology at San Diego State University. “The technology’s made it easier, but there’s this underlying psychology of attention-seeking, narcissism, seeking fame.” \n \n The two shooters at Columbine High School in 1999 fantasized that they’d be the subject of a Quentin Tarantino movie. The Virginia Tech shooter in 2007 paused to mail a media package to a TV network after he had killed his first two victims. \n \n The 2014 Santa Barbara shooter uploaded a video to YouTube describing the mayhem he planned to unleash, and he distributed by mail a manifesto detailing his hatred of women and minorities. \n \n 1 of 33 Full Screen Autoplay Close The day of the shooting Skip Ad × Two Virginia reporters fatally shot on live TV View Photos The suspect in the attack then shot himself on I-66.

Steve Helber/AP Buy Photo Wait 1 second to continue. \n \n Moments before a 19-year-old man went on a shooting spree at the Columbia, Md., mall in January 2014, he posted an image of himself to the social media site Tumblr. He was posing with his shotgun and a bandolier. \n \n Such social media posing may have seemed shocking a year and a half ago, but it may be turning into the standard operating procedure for psychopaths. \n \n “Once people start doing it, other people get the idea, and it becomes the norm,” Campbell said. \n \n [Essay: Another day, another massacre.] \n \n The Roanoke shooter began a Twitter account on Aug. 17, apparently knowing that soon his life would undergo scrutiny and hoping to craft a kind of memorial to himself. At one point, he tweeted, “My sexy bedroom,” with a shot of an empty bed. He put up numerous selfies. On Aug. 20, he posted four photographs of himself from over the years: “Headshot used for getting acting/modeling gigs way back when lol. And, wasn’t I a cute baby? ;-).” \n \n Evil acts rarely have a single explanation, and this one’s no different. Again, a gun is involved. Again, it’s an angry, unsuccessful man. Again, he sent a rambling manifesto to a news media organization. It was a compendium of grievances: racial discrimination, sexual harassment, bullying by co-workers, family alienation. He expressed admiration for the Columbine and Virginia Tech shooters. \n \n “I’ve been a human powder keg for a while . . . just waiting to go BOOM!!!! at any moment.” \n \n He did everything he could to maximize exposure to the crime. He timed it so that it would be on live television and back-stopped that video feed with a shooter’s-eye video. He uploaded his work to social media, and within a few hours turned his gun on himself. \n \n Humans create technology, and it bites back in strange ways. There are rising concerns among researchers about the effect of digital technology on human behavior and psychology. One major concern is that kids who can’t let go of a smartphone may not learn very quickly how to have a face-to-face conversation. All of us immersed in a life of screens struggle to find the right relationship with our gadgets. \n \n But there’s no evidence that we’re becoming violent, and in fact the opposite seems to be true: Violent crime is down over the past two tech-crazed decades, notwithstanding the recent spike in urban homicides. \n \n The news media are obviously implicated in the rash of spectacular violence — granting prominent coverage to people who, without resorting to terrible crimes, would have had little chance of ever becoming famous. \n \n Gone are the days when a news organization could function as a gatekeeper and its editors could hold a meeting to decide whether to publish something disturbing. When a Pennsylvania official, Budd Dwyer, shot and killed himself at a news conference in 1987, the gatekeepers could decide how they wanted to handle the footage and photography. Today, such images would be instantly circulated on social media. \n \n If there was one encouraging development Wednesday, it was the decision by news organizations such as CNN, Fox and MSNBC to show restraint in showing the television station’s video of the shooting and the action by Twitter and Facebook to remove the killer’s video from their sites. \n \n On Twitter, a consensus quickly formed: Take this down.

The gunman, Vester Lee Flanagan II, who was a former employee of the TV station, later posted a video of the attack on his Twitter and Facebook accounts before those accounts were suspended. The incident raised the issue of whether social media platforms should entirely suspend accounts associated with criminals or only remove offensive content to preserve any useful or pertinent information shared on the accounts. The decision to remove the accounts in this case left the public without access to potentially valuable information regarding the suspect and the crime."

The causes of the Great Famine included the slow transition from the Medieval Warm Period to the Little Ice Age, which left the population vulnerable when bad weather caused crop failures. The years 1313–14 and 1317–21 were excessively rainy throughout Europe, resulting in widespread crop failures. The climate change—which resulted in a declining average annual temperature for Europe during the 14th century—was accompanied by an economic downturn."

Scientists will begin clinical trials in 12 months, using stem cells harvested from a blood sample from the patients. Scientists are working on a new weapon in the war against wrinkles. There are not many things women have not tried in the quest for a youthful complexion – from lotions and potions to Botox and cosmetic surgery. But a British firm is trialling a new method which involves injecting the patient’s own stem cells to restore skin’s youthful elasticity. Researchers believe they will spur the growth of new skin cells, called fibroblasts, which make the elastic ingredient collagen which is produced in large quantities when we are young, but declines as we age. The company Pharmacells, based in Glasgow, plan to begin clinical trials in 12 months, using stem cells harvested from a blood sample from the patients. They believe the procedure could be commercially available in just three years, potentially revolutionising the market for anti-ageing treatments. By using the body’s own cells, it is billed as a more ‘natural’ approach to reducing the signs of ageing than Botox, a chemical which freezes the facial muscles to smooth wrinkles. They have licenced the technology to harvest a new type of stem cell – called a blastomere-like stem cell (CORR) – which is found circulating in the blood. Like other types of stem cells, it is unspecialised and can develop into many other types of cell in the human body such as a liver, brain or skin cell. The advantage of this particular one it is available in very large doses from one blood sample. They hope to inject 500millon of the cells in the skin in one jab. Athol Haas, the company’s chief executive said: ‘The skin has a natural elastic property which comes from cells known as fibroblasts. ‘The ability of the body to produce this elastic material slows down with age because the number of these fibroblasts decreases. ‘By introducing large numbers of stem cells into the right place, we are increasing the ability of the body to produce this natural material. It will be long lasting, we think at least five years if not longer.’ Pharmacells will be carrying out the first trial on patients with a clinic in Hong Kong to see if the treatment is safe to use. There are ‘stem cell facelifts’ already on the market which involve taking a fat sample from a patient – under local anaesthetic and injecting it into the face for around £7,500. But Mr Haas said: ‘The stem cells in fat are more mature so the quality is not so good, and the numbers of them in it are much smaller, around five or 10 million. ‘We are talking about 500 million, very high quality, pure stem cells and there is definitely a link between dose and efficacy. The more you have, the better it should be.’ These stem cells, discovered by researchers in the USA around 10 years ago, are deployed by the body when there is a trauma in an organ. Because they can turn into up to 50 types of other cells, Pharmacells is investigating their uses against heart attacks, Alzheimers, Parkinson’s disease and cancer. By turning them into skin cells, they could also be used against acne scars and stretch marks, he said. Rajiv Grover, a plastic surgeon and president elect of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeon, said it could be five to 10 years before stem cell treatments for wrinkles were widely available. He said: ‘It is an exciting prospect as the science of stem cells will influence plastic surgery and cosmetic medicine significantly in the future.\nWhat are the important parts of this article?\nImportant parts: British firm is trialling new method by injecting patient's own stem cells to restore skin's youthful elasticity.\nLife begins at conception, according to the Catholic Church, but in a wrongful death suit in Colorado, a Catholic health care company has argued just the opposite. A fetus is not legally a person until it is born, the hospital's lawyers have claimed in its defense. And now it may be up to the state's Supreme Court to decide. Lori Stodghill was 28 weeks pregnant when she went to the emergency room of St. Thomas More Hospital in Canon City vomiting and short of breath, according to a court document. She went into cardiac arrest in the lobby. \"Lori looked up at me, and then her head went down on her chest,\" said her husband, Jeremy Stodghill. Before and after Roe v. Wade. She died at age 31. Her unborn twin boys perished with her. That was New Year's Day 2006. Stodghill, left behind to raise their then-2-year-old daughter alone, sued the hospital and its owner, Catholic Health Initiatives, for the wrongful deaths of all three. After about two years of litigation, defense attorneys for the hospital and doctors entered an argument that shocked the widower. They said that under state law, an embryo is not person until it is born alive, according to court documents. The Stodghills' twins were deceased when they were removed from their mother's lifeless body. \"I didn't even get to hold them,\" Jeremy Stodghill said. \"I have an autopsy picture. That's all I've got.\" The court agreed with the argument, and Stodghill lost the suit. The court also ruled against Stodghill in the case of his wife for other legal reasons. The hospital and doctors then sued him for over $118,000 legal fees and attempted to garnish his wages, according to a legal document filed on his behalf. The defendants offered to forget the fees if Stodghill dropped his appeal. He refused and filed for bankruptcy to avoid having to pay the claim, which he says he can't afford as he struggles to raise his now-9-year-old daughter, Libby. Stodghill has petitioned the Colorado Supreme Court to hear his case, and he'd like to hear from the Catholic Church. Representatives of the Catholic bishops of Colorado declined to comment on the legal proceedings, but said they will review the litigation and Catholic Health Initiatives' practices \"to ensure fidelity and faithful witness to the teachings of the Catholic Church.\" Catholic Health Initiatives would not speak to CNN on camera, but said in a statement, \"In this case... as Catholic organizations, (we) are in union with the moral teachings of the Church.\" Stodghill wears a tattoo on his chest with his unborn sons' footprints, their names and the words \"our sons.\" He wants the church and his state to see them the same way. Survey: Few religious groups want Roe v. Wade overturned despite belief abortion morally wrong.\n\nWrite highlights.\n"

},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "In mythology, the Greek equivalent of Vulcan, the Roman god of fire, is Hephaestus. Hephaestus is the Greek god of fire, metalworking, blacksmithing, and craftsmanship, among other things. His role in mythology is similar to that of Vulcan, who is worshipped in Roman mythology as the god of fire and the forge. Both Vulcan and Hephaestus are known for their roles as divine craftsmen and their abilities to create powerful and intricate weapons, jewelry, and other important artifacts for the gods and heroes.\n\nIn ancient Greek mythology, Hephaestus is the son of the king and queen of the gods, Zeus and Hera. However, he was born with a physical disability, which has been depicted in varying ways throughout history – sometimes as a noticeable limp or as malformed legs. His imperfections set him apart from the other gods, who were often portrayed as perfect and beautiful in mythology. Out of embarrassment and anger, it is said that Hera either threw Hephaestus from Mount Olympus or that he willingly chose to leave. As a result, he was separated from the other gods and took up residence in his workshop below the earth, where he forged many powerful and impressive artifacts.\n\nHephaestus is frequently associated with the forge and the anvil, which serve as symbols of his realm and are used to represent his mastery of the metalworking and blacksmithing arts. In addition to producing magnificent works for the gods, he is also known for creating many famous and supernatural items for mortal heroes in Greek mythology. Some of the most iconic weapons and artifacts that Hephaestus crafted include the divine armor of Achilles, the Aegis shield for Athena, and the invisible helmet for the hero Perseus.\n\nDespite his physical imperfections, Hephaestus was revered as an important god in Greece. He was a prominent figure in many Greek stories and myths and was worshipped in several major cities and sanctuaries, such as Athens, Lemnos, and the Hephaestia festival, which was held in his honor. The god was also the patron deity of blacksmiths, metallurgists, potters, and other artisans, who looked to him for inspiration, guidance, and protection in their work.\n\nIn Roman mythology, Vulcan shares many similar attributes and responsibilities with his Greek counterpart. However, while their roles and natures are similar, there are slight differences in the stories and representations of the two deities. Vulcan is the son of Jupiter, the king of the gods, and Juno, the queen of the gods, and he is more prominently associated with destructive and chaotic fires, such as volcanic eruptions, compared to the more creative and artistic aspects of Hephaestus. Nevertheless, both gods are highly skilled and celebrated craftsmen who created essential tools, weapons, and artifacts for the gods and mortals alike, making them significant figures in their respective mythologies."

Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?\n(Answer)\nNegative\n\n\n(Question)\nTitle: Well done Paul Review: First of all let me say this - I absolutely love this film. The plot has been described in the other reviews so I won't do it again. It mightn't be an ordinary film - it's slightly more of an art film. If you watch it as a couple of music videos loosely connected by a plot this film is great. I expect I don't have to tell you that the music is brilliant - this is after all Paul McCartney we're talking about - \"So Bad\" is heart-meltingly beautiful. For me, the whole \"Eleanor Rigby/Eleanor's Dream\" scene alone is worth buying the video. I'll tell you what - if you enjoy an art film or music videos (or, in fact, if you enjoyed \"Magical Mystery Tour\") I recommend this film to you. Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?\n(Answer)\nPositive\n\n\n(Question)\nTitle: Major waste of money (and time) Review: For the life of me can not get the mousewheel to work..Tried everything I could think of plus a few from the logitech fourms.This purchas is a complete waste of money. If you are thinking of buying, Justy remember what Mrs Reagan used to say \"Just say NO\". spend your money on a different brand.The added weight of this mouse will come in handy when you throw it towards a dumpster.

This is typically followed by a couple of days without any symptoms after which yellowish skin, blood clotting problems, and confusion occurs. Additional complications may include kidney failure, pancreatitis, low blood sugar, and lactic acidosis. If death does not occur, people tend to recover fully over a couple of weeks. Without treatment some cases will resolve while others will result in death.\n\nBased on this passage, most serious toxic effect of acute acetaminophen overdose?\nCoT: The relevant information to answer the above question is: If death does not occur, people tend to recover fully over a couple of weeks.\n\n\nAns: Some camper trailers use a fifth - wheel configuration , requiring the coupling to be installed in the bed of a pickup truck as a towing vehicle\nQues: The fifth-wheel coupling provides the link between a semi-trailer and the towing truck, tractor unit, leading trailer or dolly. Some camper trailers use a fifth-wheel configuration, requiring the coupling to be installed in the bed of a pickup truck as a towing vehicle, and \"fifth wheel\" is therefore sometimes used as a synonym for such campers in North America. The coupling consists of a kingpin, a 2-or-3 ⁄-inch-diameter (50.8 or 88.9 mm) vertical steel pin protruding from the bottom of the front of the semi-trailer, and a horseshoe-shaped coupling device called a fifth wheel on the rear of the towing vehicle.\n\nWhy is it called a 5th wheel trailer?\nCoT: The relevant sentence in the passage is: Some camper trailers use a fifth-wheel configuration, requiring the coupling to be installed in the bed of a pickup truck as a towing vehicle, and \"fifth wheel\" is therefore sometimes used as a synonym for such campers in North America.\n\n\nAnswer: Al Stewart. Now, what could be the question and solution-maybe?\nQues: \"Year of the Cat\" is a single by Scottish singer-songwriter Al Stewart, released in July 1976. The song is the title track of his 1976 album Year of the Cat, and was recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London in January 1976 by engineer Alan Parsons. The song reached # 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1977. Although Stewart's highest charting single on that chart was 1978's \"Time Passages\", \"Year of the Cat\" has remained Stewart's signature recording, receiving regular airplay on both classic rock and folk rock stations.\n\nAnswer this question based on the passage: who sang the song the year of the cat?\nCoT: The relevant information is: \"Year of the Cat\" is a single by Scottish singer-songwriter Al Stewart, released in July 1976.\n\n\nAns: Lake Erie\nQues: Context: Located on the Niagara River, which drains Lake Erie into Lake Ontario, the combined falls form the highest flow rate of any waterfall in North America that has a vertical drop of more than 165 feet (50 m). During peak daytime tourist hours, more than six million cubic feet (168,000 m) of water goes over the crest of the falls every minute. Horseshoe Falls is the most powerful waterfall in North America, as measured by flow rate.\n\nQuestion: where is the water coming from niagara falls?\nCoT: To answer the question, consider the following: Located on the Niagara River, which drains Lake Erie into Lake Ontario, the combined falls form the highest flow rate of any waterfall in North America that has a vertical drop of more than 165 feet (50 m).\n\n\nAns: between the United States , the United Kingdom , and their respective allies\n"

Short answers containing words that are present in the passage are preferred.\nSee one example below:\nProblem: Twenty-year-old Will Hunting of South Boston is a self-taught, genius-level intellect, though he works as a janitor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and spends his free time drinking with his friends, Chuckie (Ben Affleck), Billy (Cole Hauser) and Morgan (Casey Affleck). When Professor Gerald Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgård) posts a difficult mathematics problem as a challenge for his graduate students, Will solves the problem anonymously, stunning both the graduate students and Lambeau himself. As a challenge to the unknown genius, Lambeau posts an even more difficult problem. Lambeau chances upon Will solving the problem but Will flees the scene. That night at a bar, Will meets Skylar (Minnie Driver), a British student about to graduate from Harvard, who plans on attending medical school at Stanford and gives Will her phone number before leaving., Question: How old is Will Hunting in the movie ?\nSolution: Answer: Twenty years\nExplanation: This is a good example which results in a factoid answer.\n\nProblem: A Boston couple, Gail (Meryl Streep) and Tom (David Strathairn) are having marital problems. Gail, a rafting expert, decides to take their child Roarke (Joseph Mazzello) on a holiday rafting down the Salmon River in Idaho, along with their pet dog. At the last minute Tom joins them. As they are setting off they meet a couple of other rafters, Wade (Kevin Bacon) and Terry (John C. Reilly), who appear to be friendly.After a day's rafting the family make camp for the night, but Tom continues to work on his laptop computer rather than enter fully into the experience. The family are joined by Wade and Terry who help to celebrate Roarke's birthday. Gail flirts with Wade. However, after a while Wade begins acting suspiciously and Gail decides it would be best to part ways. During the morning's rafting Wade reveals to Roarke that they have a gun with them. As they raft down the river the parents discuss an exit strategy that will allow them to leave the two men behind, and at lunch they attempt to leave on their raft and get away before Wade and Terry realize what is going on.Their attempt fails and Wade pulls the gun on them and assaults Tom. Gail then realizes that an armed robbery she had heard about was actually carried out by Wade and Terry, and their rafting trip is actually a way for them to get away. The family are forced to raft at gunpoint down the rest of the river before they all set up camp for the night. During the night Tom attempts to steal the gun off the sleeping Terry but is heard and has to run into the bushes and to the river. Wade gives chase and believes he has shot him when he hears a loud splash into the water.It's revealed that Wade and Terry, in order to aid their escape, want to go on down the river to a set of rapids where in recent years one person was killed and another was left paralyzed. Consequently, rafting is no longer allowed. Wade and Terry force the rafters down through the rapids despite Gail's repeated attempts to flip the raft and so force Wade and Terry out of the river.Meanwhile a park ranger (Benjamin Bratt), who knows Gail, is white water canoeing down the river. He bumps into the group; but Wade holds the gun to Gail's back and pretends that everything is OK. Later, he appears again but this time Wade shoots him and he falls dying into the river.Tom reappears and manages to flip the raft. Gail and Roarke, who have been tied to the raft by Wade, remain in the raft and to get hold of the gun, which had fallen into the water. whilst Tom is fighting Terry. The struggle ends when Gail throws the bag of money into the water and shoots Wade whose dead body floats off down river. The film ends with the family and Terry (who has been arrested) being helicoptered out., Question: What is the name of other couple of rafter in the movie?\nSolution:"

Also, there are two separate actions (cutting 25 cm water isotope samples and measuring ECM), so I used a comma to separate them.\n\nStep 2: Add missing punctuation.\nI added a comma after \"samples\" to separate the two actions in the sentence. I also added commas between the ice core samples (S1, S2, and S3) to indicate a list.\n\nStep 3: Correct any spelling or grammar issues.\nIn this case, I chose to change \"measured\" to \"measure\" to maintain the consistency in verb tense."

I even liked the christian, and the black night stories (what can i say, im a sucker for romance). But this is just plain lame. Im not going to restate the story because everyone already has. But magical feung shuei people are one of the lamest ideas for villans, i wish that they would have ended w/ the black knight story so i wouldent have been so dissapionted.Another good idea for the last 5 episodes would have been good old fashioned funny kenshin episodes. I would recomend this for hardcore fans of kenshin, like myself, just dont expect to be wowed in the end. Is this product review negative?\nYes\n--\nTitle: re-usable Review: This makes a great cup of coffee. One of my favorite discoveries was when I read the instructions and they mentioned rinsing off these filters and reusing them. I had never thought of that, but considering how coffee filters DON'T decompose well in the compost, I love this idea and the amount that comes with the Aeropress will last a long time this way without ordering the extra pack. Just rinse and re-use. Is this product review negative?\nNo\n--\nTitle: rip PROMIsE RING Review: It is always a sad day when a band that started a trend and could only be defined in themselves can suddenly draw comparisons from other bands. Wood Water is another album in the ever growing alt country genre. yes, this album sounds like a little wilco, a little ryan adams and so forth. Instead of creating a new music genre (nothing feels good), the promise ring have now limited themselves into a pre exixting one. And with woodwater, they dont even do anything interesting, just cliche' alt country. no, its not twangy country, but you certainly cant rock out to this record. Is this product review negative?\nYes\n--\nTitle: Pure theft Review: I threw this book out once I realized it was a rehashing of \"House of Mirth\" by the classic authoress Edith Wharton. Right down to some of the names. Does the name Selden ring a bell to you? Ok, Ok, it's the guy's Last name in Wharton's book. Skip this book and read the original!http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0451527569/qid=1118684771 Is this product review negative?\n"

"content": "(Q).\nTitle: Fairly Thorough Book Review: This book is fairly thorough. Don't expect it to explain to you all the details that go into preparing or studying for a high school AP Biology course. This book is missing far too much for that sort of help. If you are looking to prepare a course for AP Biology (as I am) your best luck will be to use the late Neil Campbell's book Biology.The quizzes in each chapter are of great use and it seems like the end quiz isn't that helpful at all since the answers are right there next to the question. Is the review positive or negative?\n(A).\nPositive\n\n\n(Q).\nTitle: Not for me Review: This movie was not for me. I loved Idocracy, and to try to compare that to this is reprehensible. No production value at all. I guess the movie was beyond me, it was so far and away good, that it came around and landed on the garbage side to me. The trigger pulling was not funny, it was dumb.I guess I had such high expectations that when they failed to deliver on anything, it just seemed that much more disappointing. Woo hoo lets flip everyone off cuz thats the logo... ya.This does not even come close to Office Space. Is the review positive or negative?\n(A).\nNegative\n\n\n(Q).\nTitle: Very Little Variety Review: My container is overwhelmingly strawberry. I had no apple, one cherry, couple blueberry which is my fav, few pomegranate, and grape.This is NOT a variety pack. Is the review positive or negative?\n(A).\n"

"content": "The United States began its revolution, known as the American Revolution, in the early stages of the year 1775. However, it is crucial to understand that the events leading up to this tipping point had started to unfold long before this year. The American Revolution was a direct result of growing tensions between the British government and the 13 American colonies due to political, social, and economic factors. The revolution was a process through which the United States ultimately gained independence from Great Britain.\n\nIn order to provide a more comprehensive understanding, it is important to discuss the significant events that eventually culminated in the revolution.\n\n1. The French and Indian War (1754-1763) – This war between Britain and France in the North American territories contributed to heightened tensions. As a result, Britain gained control of more territory but also accumulated a massive amount of war debt.\n\n2. The Proclamation of 1763 – This proclamation aimed at the prevention of conflicts between colonists and Native Americans by forbidding settlers from moving westward beyond the Appalachian Mountains. Many colonials who had fought in the French and Indian War saw this as an attempt to limit their access to lands they had been promised.\n\n3. The Sugar Act of 1764 – This act imposed import taxes on sugar, coffee, and other products, effectively raising the prices of these goods for the colonists. It also increased the collection enforcement of existing customs duties. This led to protests and a considerable amount of unrest.\n\n4. The Stamp Act of 1765 – This act imposed tax stamps on all printed materials used across the colonies, which included newspapers, legal documents, and playing cards. The colonists were generally unhappy with the British's attempt to impose taxes on them without their consent, leading to a popular slogan: \"No taxation without representation.\"\n\n5. The Townshend Acts of 1767 – These acts imposed duties on various imported goods like glass, lead, paint, paper, and tea. It led to a series of boycotts and protests across the colonies.\n\n6. The Boston Massacre (1770) – British soldiers fired on a crowd of colonists in Boston who were protesting against the British government. Five colonists were killed, creating an even deeper rift between the English and their American subjects.\n\n7. The Tea Act of 1773 and the Boston Tea Party (1773) – The Tea Act imposed a monopoly on tea sold in the colonies, effectively forcing the colonists to buy from the British East India Company. In response, a group of colonists dumped 342 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor, an event now famously known as the Boston Tea Party.\n\n8. The Intolerable Acts of 1774 – Also known as the Coercive Acts, the British government passed these laws in response to the Boston Tea Party. Among other things, these acts closed the port of Boston, greatly restricted local self-government in Massachusetts, and provided for the housing of British troops in occupied homes. The colonists saw these acts as violations of their liberties.\n\nIt was these accumulating grievances, which led the colonies to collaborate and convene the First Continental Congress in Philadelphia in September 1774. By April 19, 1775, the tipping point was reached when hostilities erupted between colonists and British forces at Lexington and Concord, with the famous \"shot heard 'round the world.\" This marked the beginning of the American Revolutionary War, which would go on until the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783. So, the United States began its revolution in 1775, but the context and history behind the decision to revolt stretch back much earlier, reflecting an evolving struggle for freedom and independence."
