"content": "Title: All About Hearthstone: A Simple Guide for Little Gamers\n\nHey little buddies! Today, we are going to talk about Hearthstone. It's a super fun game where you play with magical cards to battle your opponents. Are you ready to learn how to win, use your special abilities, and attack your enemies? Let's go!\n\n1. What is Hearthstone?\n\nHearthstone is an online card game where you can become a mighty hero with amazing powers! It's like playing a game of cards, but with elements from the world of Warcraft. Can you imagine using a fireball to beat your opponent's creatures? That's what you can do in Hearthstone!\n\n2. How to Win\n\nWinning in Hearthstone is all about reducing your opponent's health points to zero. Health points are like the hearts in most games - when you have no hearts left, you lose. To win the game, you need to pick smart cards and play them at the right time to attack your enemy. Remember, the more hearts your enemy loses, the closer you are to victory!\n\n3. Using Your Hero Ability\n\nIn Hearthstone, you can choose from a bunch of cool heroes with unique abilities. These abilities are like superpowers, and you can use them to help you during the game. For example, a hero might have the power to heal or turn invisible. Using your hero abilities wisely can really give you an edge in battle!\n\n4. Card Categories\n\nNow let's talk about those magical cards. There are three main types of cards in Hearthstone:\n\n- Minions: Minions are like your little soldiers. They can attack your opponent and their minions. Some even have special abilities like healing or charging!\n\n- Spells: Spells are powerful cards that can do many different things, like damaging your enemy or making your other cards stronger. Use them at the right time, and they can change the game!\n\n- Weapons: Weapons are cards that give your hero extra attack power. They can use these weapons to attack opponents and their minions directly.\n\n5. Attacking Your Opponent\n\nWhen it's your turn, you can use your cards and hero abilities to attack your opponent. You need to decide which cards to play and who to attack. Should you attack your opponent's minions to protect your precious health points? Or should you attack your opponent directly to win the game faster? It's up to you to make the best decisions to help you win!\n\nAnd there you have it, little friends! Now you know all about Hearthstone and how to play this magical game. Remember to have fun, use your superpowers wisely, and enjoy battling your opponents using your fantastic cards. Good luck, and may the best player win!"

"content": "Proposals concerning the pricing of port and airport infrastructures, as well as a framework communication, are in the Commission's work program for 2006.\n\nThis statement outlines the areas of focus within the Commission's work agenda for 2006. Specifically, it highlights two areas of interest. \n\nFirst, it refers to possible measures surrounding pricing of infrastructure in ports and airports. These proposals might revolve around the management and financial aspects of these types of infrastructures. They could potentially include suggestions on how to calculate pricing, depending on various factors such as the size, location, type of services provided, and capacity of the port or airport. Other considerations might involve the costs of maintenance, development, and expansion of these infrastructures, environmental aspects, or the economic and social impact on their respective regions. \n\nThe aim could be to adapt the prices to ensure a fair and competitive environment that could attract investments and stimulate economic growth, while also guaranteeing a sustainable and efficient operation of ports and airports. It would be crucial for these proposals to strike a balance between affordability and profitability, and between economic and sustainable development.\n\nSecondly, the Commission aims to develop a framework communication. This terminology generally refers to the creation of a structure for managing and organizing communication processes. Such a framework could establish guidelines on internal and external communication practices and strategies. The purpose could be to ensure efficient, clear, and consistent communication within the Commission, and between the Commission and relevant stakeholders. These might include governmental bodies, industry representatives, airport and port authorities, and the public. \n\nA structured and effective communication would be critical for the successful implementation of any proposals, as well as for maintaining transparency, credibility, and trust in the Commission's activities and decisions. This communication framework could include elements such as communication channels, feedback mechanisms, or strategies for crisis communication and public relations.\n\nIn conclusion, the statement presents an ambitious plan for the Commission's work program for 2006, requiring detailed planning, thorough analysis, and careful coordination, with a strong focus on economic development and communication efficiency."

"content": "Detailed Instructions: In this task, you're given an article and an answer. Your task is to generate the question for the answer based on the given article.\nSee one example below:\nProblem: Article: There are a lot of public libraries in Britain. These libraries have more than one hundred and fifteen million books, not including those libraries of public schools. Public libraries not only lend books, music records but also help children, patients in hospitals and others to get special play readings, film shows and so on. The first public libraries were founded in about the year 1850. Today's public libraries usually have a reading-room, a lending room and a reference room. The greatest and most famous library in Britain is that of the British Library in London. It was founded in 1973 and has over 10, 000, 000 books. It has nearly every magazine, newspaper and book published in Britain and other parts across the world. \n Answer: 10,000,000 or less.\nSolution: How many books are there in the British Library?\nExplanation: In the Article, 10,000,000 is mentioned for the number of books available in the British Library, so this is a good question.\n\nProblem: Article: President Xi Jinping announced Thursday that China will cut its military by 300,000 troops, a significant reduction in one of the largest militaries in the world and a move that the Chinese leader called a gesture of peace. \"The great renewal of the Chinese nation requires efforts of one generation after another,\" Xi said in a speech at Tiananmen Square remembering the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II in the Pacific. \"Having created an impressive civilization of over 5,000 years, the Chinese civilization will lead to an even brighter future,\" he said. Xi's announcement came as China staged a massive military parade in central Beijing, sending a stream of troops, tanks, and ballistic missiles down a major east-west street as fighter jets flew overhead with multicolored smoke. Xi's speech kicked off the parade. An estimated 12,000 troops--about 1,000 of whom hailed from Belarus, Cuba, Tajikistan, and other countries-marched along the 10-lane Chang'an Avenue from the commercial center wangfujing to Tiannmen Square, about 1.5 miles away. They were joined by 200 fighter jets and 500 pieces of military hardware, including tanks and ballistic missiles. Representatives from 49 countries were in attendance, including Russian leader Vladimir Putin, South Korean President Park Geun-hye and U. N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. Rory Medcalf, head of the national security college at Australian National University, said the Beijing may have decided to cut 300,000 troops \"in the name of efficiency and cost saving.\" Xi conducted a \"troop inspection\" after his speech, riding down Chan'gan Avenue in a Chinese-made Hongqi parade car. On Thursday morning, China's popular microblogging site Sina Weibo filled up with 350 million comments related to the parade. While many users expressed their love of their country and pride, few posts were filled with criticism. \"The soldiers are too serious,\" wrote one user. Others complained about the cloud of gray exhaust that followed a column of tanks. \n Answer: For the efficiency and cost saving.\nSolution:"

In the first quarter the Chiefs trailed early as kicker Adam Vinatieri made a 20-yard field goal, followed by a 24-yard field goal in the second quarter. The Chiefs replied with kicker Ryan Succop nailing a 45-yard field goal. In the third quarter the Colts increased their lead with Vinatieri's 47-yard field goal, followed by Succop's 35 and 43-yard field goals to tie the game. In the fourth quarter the Chiefs trailed slightly with Vinatieri getting a 42-yard field goal. After that, the Chiefs defense was finally broken down with RB Mike Hart getting an 11-yard TD run. With the loss, the Chiefs fell to 3-1 and it also marked the first time since 1970 where no teams start out 4-0.\n\nHow many total yards of field goals were made in the game?"

On their way home, they bought 2 cones of ice cream each (each cone cost $8). How much did they spend altogether?\nThe answer is 110\n\nStep-by-step reasoning process: The volume of the slab is 100 * 100 * .5 = 5000 cubic feet. So it weighs 5000 * 150 = 750000 pounds. That means the cost is 750000 * $0.02 = $15,000 per house. So the total cost for all 3 houses is $15000 * 3 = $45,000.\n[Q & A]\n"

A disfluent question is a question that has some interruptions in it while framing. A proper question is the correct form of the question without any disfluency.\n\nQ: proper question: Many construction companies are now placing more emphasis on what? \n disfluent question: Many construction managers or like companies are now placing more emphasis on what? \n context: Several project structures can assist the owner in this integration, including design-build, partnering and construction management. In general, each of these project structures allows the owner to integrate the services of architects, interior designers, engineers and constructors throughout design and construction. In response, many companies are growing beyond traditional offerings of design or construction services alone and are placing more emphasis on establishing relationships with other necessary participants through the design-build process.\n\nA: establishing relationships with other necessary participants through the design-build process\n****\nQ: proper question: What was used by the North to justify control over western territories? \n disfluent question: What was used by the East, no North to justify control over western territories? \n context: Orientalism, as theorized by Edward Said, refers to how the West developed an imaginative geography of the East. This imaginative geography relies on an essentializing discourse that represents neither the diversity nor the social reality of the East. Rather, by essentializing the East, this discourse uses the idea of place-based identities to create difference and distance between we the West and them the East, or here in the West and there in the East. This difference was particularly apparent in textual and visual works of early European studies of the Orient that positioned the East as irrational and backward in opposition to the rational and progressive West. Defining the East as a negative vision of itself, as its inferior, not only increased the West’s sense of self, but also was a way of ordering the East and making it known to the West so that it could be dominated and controlled. The discourse of Orientalism therefore served as an ideological justification of early Western imperialism, as it formed a body of knowledge and ideas that rationalized social, cultural, political, and economic control of other territories.\n\nA: None\n****\nQ: proper question: Completing p with respect to what will produce the field of real numbers? \n disfluent question: Completing p with respect to which what will produce the field of real numbers? \n context: In particular, this norm gets smaller when a number is multiplied by p, in sharp contrast to the usual absolute value (also referred to as the infinite prime). While completing Q (roughly, filling the gaps) with respect to the absolute value yields the field of real numbers, completing with respect to the p-adic norm |−|p yields the field of p-adic numbers. These are essentially all possible ways to complete Q, by Ostrowski's theorem. Certain arithmetic questions related to Q or more general global fields may be transferred back and forth to the completed (or local) fields. This local-global principle again underlines the importance of primes to number theory.\n\nA:"

"content": "Question: \"What lead to the bank not being able to handle it's funds?\" Context: \"Hayek's principal investigations in economics concerned capital, money, and the business cycle. Mises had earlier applied the concept of marginal utility to the value of money in his Theory of Money and Credit (1912), in which he also proposed an explanation for \"industrial fluctuations\" based on the ideas of the old British Currency School and of Swedish economist Knut Wicksell. Hayek used this body of work as a starting point for his own interpretation of the business cycle, elaborating what later became known as the \"Austrian Theory of the Business Cycle\". Hayek spelled out the Austrian approach in more detail in his book, published in 1929, an English translation of which appeared in 1933 as Monetary Theory and the Trade Cycle. There he argued for a monetary approach to the origins of the cycle. In his Prices and Production (1931), Hayek argued that the business cycle resulted from the central bank's inflationary credit expansion and its transmission over time, leading to a capital misallocation caused by the artificially low interest rates. Hayek claimed that \"the past instability of the market economy is the consequence of the exclusion of the most important regulator of the market mechanism, money, from itself being regulated by the market process\".\" Answer:\nAns: artificially low interest rates\n\nQuestion: \"Who was the ruler of England in 1580?\" Context: \"In England, the 16th-century European Reformation resulted in a number of executions on charges of heresy. During the thirty-eight years of Henry VIII's reign, about sixty heretics, mainly Protestants, were executed and a rather greater number of Catholics lost their lives on grounds of political offences such as treason, notably Sir Thomas More and Cardinal John Fisher, for refusing to accept the king's supremacy over the Church in England. Under Edward VI, the heresy laws were repealed in 1547 only to be reintroduced in 1554 by Mary I; even so two radicals were executed in Edward's reign (one for denying the reality of the incarnation, the other for denying Christ's divinity). Under Mary, around two hundred and ninety people were burned at the stake between 1555 and 1558 after the restoration of papal jurisdiction. When Elizabeth I came to the throne, the concept of heresy was retained in theory but severely restricted by the 1559 Act of Supremacy and the one hundred and eighty or so Catholics who were executed in the forty-five years of her reign were put to death because they were considered members of \"...a subversive fifth column.\" The last execution of a \"heretic\" in England occurred under James VI and I in 1612. Although the charge was technically one of \"blasphemy\" there was one later execution in Scotland (still at that date an entirely independent kingdom) when in 1697 Thomas Aikenhead was accused, among other things, of denying the doctrine of the Trinity.\" Answer:\nAns: Elizabeth I\n\nQuestion: \"What does a cosmonaut need to navigate in order to do his job?\" Context: \"By 1959, American observers believed that the Soviet Union would be the first to get a human into space, because of the time needed to prepare for Mercury's first launch. On April 12, 1961, the USSR surprised the world again by launching Yuri Gagarin into a single orbit around the Earth in a craft they called Vostok 1. They dubbed Gagarin the first cosmonaut, roughly translated from Russian and Greek as \"sailor of the universe\". Although he had the ability to take over manual control of his spacecraft in an emergency by opening an envelope he had in the cabin that contained a code that could be typed into the computer, it was flown in an automatic mode as a precaution; medical science at that time did not know what would happen to a human in the weightlessness of space. Vostok 1 orbited the Earth for 108 minutes and made its reentry over the Soviet Union, with Gagarin ejecting from the spacecraft at 7,000 meters (23,000 ft), and landing by parachute. The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (International Federation of Aeronautics) credited Gagarin with the world's first human space flight, although their qualifying rules for aeronautical records at the time required pilots to take off and land with their craft. For this reason, the Soviet Union omitted from their FAI submission the fact that Gagarin did not land with his capsule. When the FAI filing for Gherman Titov's second Vostok flight in August 1961 disclosed the ejection landing technique, the FAI committee decided to investigate, and concluded that the technological accomplishment of human spaceflight lay in the safe launch, orbiting, and return, rather than the manner of landing, and so revised their rules accordingly, keeping Gagarin's and Titov's records intact.\" Answer:\nAns: universe\n\nQuestion: \"What happened in the ninth year of the twenty-first century?\" Context: \"Some of the earliest recorded observations ever made through a telescope, Galileo's drawings on 28 December 1612 and 27 January 1613, contain plotted points that match up with what is now known to be the position of Neptune. On both occasions, Galileo seems to have mistaken Neptune for a fixed star when it appeared close—in conjunction—to Jupiter in the night sky; hence, he is not credited with Neptune's discovery. At his first observation in December 1612, Neptune was almost stationary in the sky because it had just turned retrograde that day. This apparent backward motion is created when Earth's orbit takes it past an outer planet. Because Neptune was only beginning its yearly retrograde cycle, the motion of the planet was far too slight to be detected with Galileo's small telescope. In July 2009, University of Melbourne physicist David Jamieson announced new evidence suggesting that Galileo was at least aware that the 'star' he had observed had moved relative to the fixed stars.\" Answer:\n"

"content": "The most salient words in the sentence \"silhouette of young woman practicing yoga on the beach at sunrise\" are:\n\n1. Silhouette: This word paints a visual image in the reader's mind of a dark outline against a light background; in this case, a young woman cast against the rising sun. The term \"silhouette\" provides a clear concept of the overall picture being described and adds an artistic aspect to the sentence.\n\n2. Young woman: These two words describe the primary subject of the sentence. By specifying the subject as both young and female, the reader's understanding of the scene becomes more precise, and their perception of the character's energy and vitality is enriched. The term \"young woman\" also conveys a sense of grace and beauty, which enhances the overall imagery.\n\n3. Practicing yoga: This phrase denotes the activity in which the young woman is engaged – yoga. It provides insight into the character's lifestyle choices, emphasizing the aspects of mindfulness, well-being, and discipline associated with the practice. \"Practicing yoga\" contributes significantly to the overall depiction of the atmosphere and mood in the sentence.\n\n4. Beach: The location of the scene, the beach, establishes a setting that is both serene and peaceful, with elements of nature such as water and sand. This word helps develop a picturesque and idyllic scene, inviting readers to mentally immerse themselves in the calming environment. The beach setting also supports the practice of yoga by providing a tranquil backdrop.\n\n5. Sunrise: Lastly, the time of day – sunrise – is a critical aspect to consider. It adds another layer of beauty and symbolism to the sentence. Not only does the sunrise provide the light source for the silhouette, but it also signifies the beginning of a new day, and hinting at the possibilities of renewal, rejuvenation, and transformation. The mention of the sunrise enriches the overall visual and emotional impact of the sentence."

"content": "Tom Sharpe, Darkly Satirical British Novelist, Dies at 85\nMr. Sharpeâs Spanish publisher, Anagrama, confirmed the death to The Associated Press.\n\nA best-selling author in Britain, Mr. Sharpe was considered one of its master social satirists. Though his books have been widely available in the United States since the 1980s, he remains less well known in this country.\n\nWielding a glittering rapier â or a hatchet, as he preferred to characterize it â he lustily hacked away at a slew of targets, among them racism, colonialism, Thatcherism, academia and the aristocracy.\n\nTo that end, Mr. Sharpe crammed his work with excess, particularly excess involving smut, scatology, savagery and grotesquerie. Routine plot elements in his novels might include exploding ostriches, dogs high on LSD, inept spousal murder and all manner of inflatable things.\n\nIn its obituary, the British newspaper The Telegraph noted, âAs the handgun was a crucial motif to Raymond Chandler, and the billet doux to Barbara Cartland, so whole Sharpe narratives could depend on condoms.â\n\nMr. Sharpeâs best-known novels include five starring the hapless Henry Wilt. A lecturer at a jerkwater technical college in England, Wilt is condemned to teach classes like Meat One and Gasfitters Two to academically disinclined students.\n\nâThe man who said the pen was mightier than the sword ought to have tried reading âThe Mill on the Flossâ to Motor Mechanics,â Mr. Sharpeâs antihero observes dourly in his first outing, âWilt,â published in Britain in 1976.\n\nIn that novel, Wilt fantasizes about doing away with Eva, his immense, overbearing, sexually voracious wife. But his dress rehearsal for the crime â a curious incident involving an inflatable doll, a construction site and quantities of poured concrete â goes horribly wrong, and though Eva remains gratingly alive, Wilt winds up accused of her murder.\n\nThe novel was the basis of the 1990 film âThe Misadventures of Mr. Wilt,â starring Griff Rhys Jones as Wilt and Alison Steadman as Eva.\n\nMr. Sharpe was equally known for his novel âPorterhouse Blue,â published in 1974 and set at the fictional Porterhouse College of Cambridge University.\n\nOn this lofty field, a pitched battle between tradition and modernity rages, with blue-blooded stalwarts accustomed to gorging on roast swan in the campus dining hall confronting an onslaught of female students, prophylactics run amok (inflated, they waft en masse onto the college quad) and other terrors.\n\nBut the ribald comedy of Mr. Sharpeâs books was merely a counterweight to their essential darkness, which seemed rooted in an English childhood steeped in fascism and a South African young adulthood amid the brutalities of apartheid.\n\nThomas Ridley Sharpe was born in London on March 30, 1928. His father, a Unitarian minister, was a staunch supporter of fascist causes and a great admirer of Hitler. Young Tom grew up awash in Nazi ideology, and with the outbreak of World War II the family moved often to avoid being interned as enemy sympathizers.\n\nIt was only toward warâs end, Mr. Sharpe later said, as he watched newsreels of the liberation of the death camps, that he realized Nazismâs true enormity.\n\nAfter studying anthropology at Cambridge, Mr. Sharpe moved to South Africa, where he was a social worker in the black townships. His job entailed collecting black tuberculosis patients from hospitals and bringing them home to the townships to die.\n\nâIt wasnât necessary for them to die,â Mr. Sharpe told The Sunday Express, the British newspaper, in 2010. âIt was because only white people were being given the drugs.â\n\nHe became a photographer to capture what he saw on film and a playwright to set it down on paper. After one of his plays indicting apartheid was produced in Britain in 1960, Mr. Sharpe was thrown into a South African prison.\n\nDeported to Britain the next year, Mr. Sharpe taught at a technical college that would become the model for Wiltâs milieu. His first two novels, âRiotous Assemblyâ (1971) and âIndecent Exposureâ (1973), were scathing, grotesquely comic attacks on South African society.\n\nMr. Sharpe had a brief early marriage, orchestrated in his telling by his socially ambitious mother, which ended in divorce. âThis girl had inherited seven houses,â he told The Telegraph in 2004. âWhich was as good a reason for getting rid of her as any.â\n\nHis survivors include his second wife, the former Nancy Looper, an American whom he married in 1969; two daughters; and a stepdaughter.\n\nHis other novels include âGrantchester Grindâ (1995), a sequel to âPorterhouse Blueâ; âThe Wilt Inheritanceâ (2010); and âThe Middenâ (1996).\n\nThough Mr. Sharpeâs books sold millions of copies in Britain, they were not to everyoneâs liking. Perhaps the best summary of the divided reception they provoked appears in The Sunday Telegraphâs review of his 1978 novel, âThe Throwback,â a sendup of the gentry:\n\nâIf getting a taxidermist to stuff your grandfather and blowing up a neighborâs house by pumping gas up his lavatory pan are your taste in jokes, then Mr. Sharpe is your man,â the review said. âIf not, not.â\nPlease write a summary below.\nMr. Sharpe, whose books included âPorterhouse Blueâ and the Henry Wilt series, used crudity and excess in taking on targets like racism, the aristocracy and academia.\nBrazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer dies at 104\nCulture Connoisseurs consistently offer thought-provoking, timely comments on the arts, lifestyle and entertainment.\n\nMore about badges | Request a badge\n\nWashingtologists consistently post thought-provoking, timely comments on events, communities, and trends in the Washington area.\n\nMore about badges | Request a badge\n\nThis commenter is a Washington Post editor, reporter or producer.\n\nThis commenter is a Washington Post contributor.

Article: Japanese people,who never miss a chance to be photographed,were lining up to get their pictures on a postage stamp.Vanity stamps with personal photographs went on sale for the first time in Japan as part of an international postage stamp exhibition.The customer's photo was taken with a digital camera and then printed on stamp sheets,a process that takes about five minutes.Sold in a sheet of 10 stamps for $8.80,little more than the cost of lunch in Tokyo,each stamp printed a different scene from a traditional painting along with the photo. The stamps can be used normally to mail a letter,and postal officials hope they will help encourage interest in letter writing in the Internet age.\"Certainly e-mail is a useful method of communication,but letters are fun in a different way,\"said Hatsumi Shimizu an official in the Post Ministry.\"We want to show young people that letters can be fun too.\"[ While similar stamp sheets appeared in Australia in 1999 and are now sold in some nations and territories,Japan's fondness for commemorative photos is likely to make them especially popular here.Indeed,officials had prepared 1 000 sheets but they were sold out in less than 30 minutes.Although the stamps are currently only available as a special service during the exhibition,postal officials said they may start selling them on a regular basis in the future. Question: The purpose of this activity is _ .

Article: Research has long backed the therapeutic value of diary-keeping for teenage girls and boys.But according to a new study, when teenagers detail their sadness onto a blog, the therapeutic value is even greater.Blogging, it seems, can be good for you. The study, published in the journal Psychological Services and conducted by Meyran Boniel-Nissim and Azy Barak, psychology professors at the University of Haifa, Israel, found the contact with an online community through a blog made it more effective in relieving the writer's social anxiety than a private diary would be. To track teenagers' experiences with blogging, the researchers randomly surveyed high school students in Israel and selected 161 of them who exhibited some level of social anxiety or stress.The teenagers, who averaged 15 years old, said they had difficulty making new friends or relating to their existing friends. The teenagers were divided into six groups.The first two groups were asked to blog about their social difficulties, with one group asked to open their posts to comments.The second two groups were asked to blog about whatever struck their adolescent fancy; again, with one group allowing comments.All four groups were told to write in their blogs at least twice a week.As a control, two more groups were told to keep either an old-fashioned print diary or to do nothing at all. All of their blog records were then read through by four psychologists to determine the authors' social and emotional state.In all the groups, the greatest improvement in mood occurred among those bloggers who wrote about their problems and allowed commenters to respond. Interestingly, the commenters on the blogs were quite supportive.\"The only kind of surprise we had was that almost all comments made by readers were very positive and constructive in trying to offer support for anxious bloggers,\" Dr.Barak wrote in an e-mail. Question: The researchers surveyed the students in Israel in order to _ . Options: A: make us believe that blogging is a must for teenagers B: prove blogging is more effective in solving teens' emotional problems C: find out their social and emotional state and help them out D: check if blogging can help improve teens' emotional state\n(A).\nB\n\n\n(Q).\nI'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Jeremy Shu-How Lin, who was born in California, 1988, world-famous now,is the first Chinese-American professional basketball player with the New York Knicks of NBA. It hasn't been an easy road for Lin. After high school, Lin sent his resume and a DVD of highlights to all the Ivy League schools, and his dream schools Stanford and UCLA. Harvard and Brown were the only schools that guaranteed him a spot on their basketball teams, but Ivy League schools do not offer athletic scholarships. After graduating from Harvard University, Lin went undrafted in the 2010 NBA Draft . Lin spent his first season with his hometown the Golden State Warriors. He saw limited minutes with the Warriors, but was cheered in arenas around the country, particularly in cities with large Asian communities, as fans came out in crowds to cheer their homegrown star. In late 2011, Lin spent less than two weeks with the Houston Rockets, moving to the New York Knicks at the very end of the year. He has made several trips to the NBA's Development League, a minor league for players who show promise but need seasoning before they can compete at the highest level. It appears to have paid off. In February 2012, after keying the Knicks victory over New Jersey, Lin was named the starter for the Utah game, a position he appears to have a hold on in the short term, as Baron Davis, who signed in December to play the position, stays on the disabled list. Lin will likely get stronger the more minutes he plays, and even if Davis returns, spelling the older, recovering player could be productive for Lin: a proven good student who can learn a lot from practicing against a veteran. Without the services of All-Stars Carmelo and Amare, Lin led New York to a 4-0 record last week. He became the first player in NBA history to record at least 20 points and seven assists in each of his first four starts, which generated a global following known as Linsanity. The Associated Press called Lin \"the most Surprising story in the NBA\". Question: Which of the following can be the main idea of this text? Options: A: How the word Linsanity came into being. B: Introduction to Jeremy Shu-How Lin. C: How Lin becomes successful. D: Lin and New York Knicks\n(A).\n"

J.K.Rowling,author of the Harry Potter book series,began writing at the age of 6.In her biography,she remembers with great fondness when her good friend Sean,whom she met in secondary school,became the first person to encourage her and help build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer \"He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition to be a writer.He was also the only person who thought I was bound to be a success at it,which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.\" Despite many setbacks,Rowling persevered in her writing,particularly fantasy stories.But it wasn't until 1990 that she first conceived the idea about Harry Potter.As she recalls,it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into her head.\"To my immense frustration ,I didn't have a functioning pen with me,and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one.I think,now,that this was probably a good thing,because I simply sat and thought,for four (delayed train) hours,and all the details bubbled up in my brain,and this scrawny,blackhaired,bespectacled boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.\" That same year,her mother passed away after a tenyear battle with multiple sclerosis,which deeply affected her writing.She went on to marry and had a daughter,but separated from her husband shortly afterwards. During this time,Rowling was diagnosed with clinical depression.Unemployed,she completed her first novel in area cafes,where she could get her daughter to fall asleep.After being rejected by 12 publishing houses,the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house. Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages,J.K.Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history.And it all began with her commitment to... Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter _ . A) at the age of 6 B) on a train journey C) after her mother's death D) in her secondary school\nAns: A\n\nQues: As young Chinese increasingly forget how to write characters because they don't have to, using keyboards and touch screen technology on mobile phones is changing the trend. For Yin Liang, a 26-year-old purchasing agent at a company, his embarrassment over forgetting how to write characters has gradually disappeared since he started to use the handwriting input method on his iPhone 4 a month ago. \"When you write on the touch screen, you use your finger, instead of a mouse or keyboard,\" Yin says. \"Actually, your finger is like a pen, writing the complicated characters that have long been spelled by pinyin, an alphabet-based input system. Whether typing on computers or texting on phones, most users in China type by phonetically spelling out the sounds of the characters and the software then gives a menu of characters that fit the pronunciation, so users only need to recognize the character. Handwriting technology on a mobile phone touch screen has been around for years and became popular with the iPhone, which recognizes the input and offers a wide selection of characters. \"It's efficient and accurate,\" Yin says. Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world, but as pinyin-based typing has become more widespread, youths have started forgetting how to write out characters. This was one of the main topics for debate at the first Cross-Straits Chinese Character Art Festival, held recently in Beijing, which attracted experts from Taiwan and the mainland. According to Zhang Zikang, president of the Culture and Art Publishing House, writing with a pen on the touch screen brings handwriting into the digital age. It is even better when you write with your finger, feeling the flow of the cursive script and the grace and art of Chinese characters, he says. \"Smart gadgets don't take life from the square-shaped characters, instead they offer a new and advanced platform to show the charm of Chinese characters, which are always evolving,\" Zhang says. What will happen to characters as smart gadgets appear? A) The writing of characters will be not important. B) Characters will disappear sooner or later. C) Characters can be only written with your finger. D) Characters will be still attractive by evolving.\nAns: D\n\nQues: Paul was a student with a lot of problems.He hated school.He didn't like living with his family in the industrial city of Pittsburgh.Paul wanted to be surrounded by beautiful things.He loved his part--time job as an usher at the concert hall.He helped people find their seats before the concert.Then he could listen to the music and dream of exciting places.

D) He liked to work for actors.\nAns: C\n\nQues: When Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job, she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers. For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges, she's been named national teacher of the year. Principal Waynes Kettler said he's worked with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator, but Peterson is \"just that one step above anybody I've ever worked with before.\" Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music. When students were reading S.E. Hinton's novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a 30-minute play with scenes from the book. Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused on race, equality and social justice, the themes of the book. Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book. The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils. It's inspiring to know that people from small towns even win national honors. As national teacher of the year, Peterson will spend the more years outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education. She said it's essential for schools to offer classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one of those subjects is the only thing that attracts them to come back to school day after day. Which of the following is an example of Peterson's way of teaching music? A) She wrote plays on themes of race, equality and social justice. B) She made use of the contents of other classes in her teaching. C) She organized classroom discussions of Broadway tunes. D) She helped students compose songs by themselves.\nAns:"

},
{
"role": "assistant",
"content": "The verse form used in \"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” is known as Alliterative Revival. This refers to a method of writing that arrived around the 14th century, which took influence from Old English styles of alliteration. The poem itself is written in stanzas of unequal length- all ending in a short bob and wheel.\n\nTo explain further, Alliterative Revival is a form of poetry that uses alliteration as the main structural element of a line, along with a particular rhythm. 'Alliteration' refers to the repetition of initial consonant sounds in neighbouring words or stressed syllables, which generates a natural rhythm on the page and in reading aloud.\n\nAs for the 'bob and wheel', it's a subset of Alliterative Revival, but unique to Middle English alliterative verse and became highly prominent in \"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight”. The stanza ends with this compact chunk known as the 'bob and wheel': the bob is simply a very short line, often only two or three syllables, followed by the wheel, which consists of four lines that rhyme together. The rhyme scheme for these lines is typically ABABA.\n\nFor example, the first stanza ends:\n\n\"But of deeds of arms and derring do\nIn Vance the king greatly stood out.\"\nBob: \"With a broad banner borne aloft,\"\nWheel: \"Boldly he played his part, this bear,\nKiller of men in his cruel rage,\nFierce and furious, never flinching.\"\n\nThis combination of alliteration and established rhyme scheme helps to build the rhythm and epic quality that the children of the Alliterative Revival, including \"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight,\" are known for.\n\nHence, that is an in-depth explanation for the verse-form for \"Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.\" Not only does it have a unique structure, but it ties into the tradition of oral storytelling, where alliteration and rhyme helped storytellers to remember their lengthy tales."

"content": "When American 11 struck the World Trade Center at 8:46, no one in the White House or traveling with the President knew that it had been hijacked. While that information circulated within the FAA, we found no evidence that the hijacking was reported to any other agency in Washington before 8:46. Most federal agencies learned about the crash in New York from CNN. Within the FAA, the administrator, Jane Garvey, and her acting deputy, Monte Belger, had not been told of a confirmed hijacking before they learned from television that a plane had crashed. Others in the agency were aware of it, as we explained earlier in this chapter. Inside the National Military Command Center, the deputy director of operations and his assistant began notifying senior Pentagon officials of the incident. At about 9:00, the senior NMCC operations officer reached out to the FAA operations center for information. Although the NMCC was advised of the hijacking of American 11, the scrambling of jets was not discussed. In Sarasota, Florida, the presidential motorcade was arriving at the Emma E. Booker Elementary School, where President Bush was to read to a class and talk about education. White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card told us he was standing with the President outside the classroom when Senior Advisor to the President Karl Rove first informed them that a small, twin-engine plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. The President's reaction was that the incident must have been caused by pilot error. At 8:55, before entering the classroom, the President spoke to National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, who was at the White House. She recalled first telling the President it was a twin-engine aircraft-and then a commercial aircraft-that had struck the World Trade Center, adding \"that's all we know right now, Mr. President.\" At the White House, Vice President Dick Cheney had just sat down for a meeting when his assistant told him to turn on his television because a plane had struck the NorthTower of the World Trade Center. The Vice President was wondering \"How the hell could a plane hit the World Trade Center\" when he saw the second aircraft strike the South Tower. Elsewhere in the White House, a series of 9:00 meetings was about to begin. In the absence of information that the crash was anything other than an accident, the White House staff monitored the news as they went ahead with their regular schedules. \n\nQuestion: \"How much time had elapsed between American 11 hitting the World Trade Centre and the senior NMCC operations officer reaching out to the FAA operations center for information?\"\n\nAnswer: \"Less than 15 minutes\"\n\nIs this answer correct?\n\npick from the following. (I) no. (II) yes....I think the answer is"

"content": "(II) yes.\n\nThe answer is correct because American 11 struck the World Trade Center at 8:46, and the senior NMCC operations officer reached out to the FAA operations center for information at about 9:00. This means that less than 15 minutes had elapsed between these two events. Other options were not provided, so we can conclude that this is the correct answer."

"content": "input question: What did Brzezinkski place at the memorial held in October of 1989? Answer the above question based on the context below: During the 1980s, there was increasing pressure on both the Polish and Soviet governments to release documents related to the massacre. Polish academics tried to include Katyn in the agenda of the 1987 joint Polish-Soviet commission to investigate censored episodes of the Polish-Russian history. In 1989, Soviet scholars revealed Joseph Stalin had indeed ordered the massacre, and in 1990 Mikhail Gorbachev admitted the NKVD had executed the Poles and confirmed two other burial sites similar to the site at Katyn: Mednoye and Piatykhatky. On 30 October 1989, Gorbachev allowed a delegation of several hundred Poles, organized by the Polish association Families of Katyń Victims, to visit the Katyn memorial. This group included former U.S. national security advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski. A mass was held and banners hailing the Solidarity movement were laid. One mourner affixed a sign reading \"NKVD\" on the memorial, covering the word \"Nazis\" in the inscription such that it read \"In memory of Polish officers killed by the NKVD in 1941.\" Several visitors scaled the fence of a nearby KGB compound and left burning candles on the grounds. Brzezinski commented: It isn't a personal pain which has brought me here, as is the case in the majority of these people, but rather recognition of the symbolic nature of Katyń. Russians and Poles, tortured to death, lie here together. It seems very important to me that the truth should be spoken about what took place, for only with the truth can the new Soviet leadership distance itself from the crimes of Stalin and the NKVD. Only the truth can serve as the basis of true friendship between the Soviet and the Polish peoples. The truth will make a path for itself. I am convinced of this by the very fact that I was able to travel here. Brzezinski further stated: The fact that the Soviet government has enabled me to be here—and the Soviets know my views—is symbolic of the breach with Stalinism that perestroika represents. His remarks were given extensive coverage on Soviet television.

Answer the above question based on the context below: Almost 250 different fires started in Yellowstone and the surrounding National Forests between June and August. Seven of them were responsible for 95% of the total burned area. At the end of July, the National Park Service and other agencies had fully mobilized available personnel, and yet the fires continued to expand. Smaller fires burned into each other, propelled by dry storms which brought howling winds and dry lightning strikes but no rain. On August 20, the single worst day of the fires and later dubbed \"Black Saturday\", more than 150,000 acres (610 km2) were consumed during one of many intense fires. Ash from the fires throughout the park drifted as far away as Billings, Montana, 60 miles (97 km) to the northeast. The wind driven flames jumped roads and firelines, and burning embers started new fires a mile (1.6 km) or more ahead of the main fires. Ground fires raced the fuel ladder to the forest canopy and became crown fires with flames over 200 feet (61 m) high. On that single day, more Yellowstone land burned than in all other fires combined since the establishment of the park. Throughout the summer, fires made huge advances of 5 to 10 miles (8.0 to 16.1 km) a day, and there were even occasions when more than 2 miles (3.2 km) in one hour were recorded.One large group of fires was known as the Snake River Complex. These fires were in the southern section of the park, in the headwaters region of the Yellowstone and Snake Rivers. The largest fire in the group was the Shoshone fire which was started by lightning on June 23. The prescribed natural burn policy was still in effect, and at first no efforts were made to suppress this fire. It smoldered with little movement for several weeks, then rapidly started expanding towards the northeast on July 20.The Red fire started near Lewis Lake on July 1, and like the Shoshone fire, advanced little for several weeks. The fire then moved northeast on July 19, and combined with the Shoshone fire in August. As these two fires advanced towards the Grant Village...???\noutput answer: Shoshone fire\n\ninput question: Which person fell into a large pile of mammoth dung? Answer the above question based on the context below: Set in the Stone Age, Ishbo is the younger son of Mookoo, the leader of a tribe of cavemen. Ishbo is smarter than most of his tribesmen, but awkward and nerdy, living in the shadow of his much more physically impressive brother Thudnik. He hopes to use his superior intellect to become an inventor and raise his tribe above simple sticks and stones, but due to a combination of the flimsy materials available to him and the lack of support from his tribe they always fail. Ishbo also has had a lifelong crush on his childhood friend, Fardart. Much to his dismay, immediately after he finally expresses his love to her she is \"clubbed\" by Thudnik (and all that follows in the tradition of caveman stereotypes), and eventually married to him. Ishbo himself has never clubbed a woman, having his heart set on Fardart his whole life. After Fardart is betrothed to Thudnik, Ishbo begins to believe that he will never club a woman. He at first is too attached to her to consider clubbing another woman, and is further discouraged after a particularly ill-fated attempt at clubbing. Ishbo becomes quite depressed, a feeling which is escalated by his failure to prove useful on a mammoth hunt. He falls into a large pile of mammoth dung, then is eaten by the mammoth, and eventually excreted (or extracted – the scene itself appears as a series of animated cave drawings) from the mammoth when it is finally killed by the rest of the tribesmen.???\noutput answer:"

He is content to lounge around watching old movies and listening to classical or easy listening music. His current girlfriend, Sherry (Julie Delpy), is ending their relationship and moving out of his house when a letter in a pink envelope arrives. After she walks out, Don reads the letter; it purports to be from an unnamed former girlfriend, informing him that he has a son who is nearly nineteen years old, and who may be looking for him. Initially, Don does not intend to do anything about it, but his busybody neighbor Winston (Jeffrey Wright), who is a mystery novel enthusiast, urges Don to investigate. Winston researches the current locations of the five women most likely to have written the letter and gives Don the information along with maps and flight reservations, and persuades him to visit them. Ultimately Don meets with four women, each encounter worse than the last and each woman damaged in some way: Laura (Sharon Stone) works as a closet and drawer organizer and is the widow of a race car driver.

(April 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Sick Girl is the story of Izzy Shea (Leslie Andrews), a girl who wants to protect her younger brother, have sex with her older brother and torture everyone else out in the barn. Izzy is raising her younger brother, Kevin, by herself. Their parents are deceased and her older brother, Rusty, is away in the Marines. When Izzy learns that her little brother is being bullied at school, she does what any unstable, psychopathic, homicidal sister would do.[3] The movie starts out with Izzy waiting for the school bus. In the back are two popular girls who make several snide remarks about her. One of the girl's boyfriend is following the bus route in his car with his friend. The girls drop a pair of panties out the window, and if her boyfriend finds them, he'll be rewarded. After Izzy attacks one of the nuns on the bus for seemingly no reason, she's kicked off and begins to walk back along the road. She runs into the two boys, and lures the friend out of the car. She kills him, and the other boy quickly discovers the scene. Izzy chases him across a field and tackles him. The scene ends, and now we see Izzy cleaning herself up in a bathroom. She is covered in blood and is completely unfazed by this. Clips are shown of Izzy finding a gun in the boys' car, and her holding the school bus hostage, seemingly killing everyone. She chases the two popular girls off the bus, and with the gun and a can of gasoline, she quickly catches one of the girls. The other watches in horror as Izzy kills her friend. Izzy returns home, and we see a flashback sequence of Rusty training Izzy how to fight in their garage. The two share a moment of sibling fondness, but it is cut short by the arrival of Rusty's girlfriend. The flashback sequence ends, and Izzy finds their family friend, Barnie, teaching Kevin how to throw a punch....\n----\nAnswer: Erin Brown aka Misty Mundae\n\n\nI am trying to decide whether it's worth it to invest in this film proposal.

After finding the fuses charred and partially melted, they head into the woods to investigate a transformer which is throwing sparks.They find a UFO in a nearby field.

They rush back to the house and try to convince their incredulous family to flee while there is still time. They see lights in the sky and a furtive figure outside a window, but the family refuses to believe the brothers' story until Tommy plays them the tape. Suddenly, a high-frequency screech incapacitates everyone but six-year-old Rose. When it stops, Kurt straps a flashlight to his shotgun and decides to get everyone in his truck and leave.The truck won't start. The battery has melted so they return to the house. As they take stock of the situation they hear scrabbling sounds from the roof and discover that an alien has made its way in through an open window. Kurt leads the way up the stairs and begins to search. Tommy takes the opportunity to go into his bedroom and change his soiled pants when is ambushed by an alienit (apparently) puts him in a trance, investigates his camera, and slips away, leaving Tommy with no memory of the encounter.

Everyone retreats downstairs.A ball of light floats into the house and puts Renee into a coma.

Budgets are due to be submitted Friday. They already contain cuts, but sources say that may only serve as a starting point for the next round of belt-tightening.\n\n“It’s no secret that [Chief Executive] Bob Sauerberg has been working on a reorg,” said one knowledgeable source. That reorganization is expected within 2¹/₂ weeks.\n\nWomen’s Wear Daily, the fashion trade, has helped fan the flames, with at least two stories on the topic in recent weeks outlining plans for the Newhouse-controlled publisher to go to group publisher and category sales arrangement. One potential date for a reorganization — right after Labor Day — came and went with no re-org.\n\n“Everyone expected it right after Labor Day,” said one insider. “Nobody knows why it was delayed.”\n\nThe added wait has only served to crank up the rumor mill into a higher gear — and for some to suffer from rumor fatigue.\n\n“I just stopped asking,” shrugged one source. A Condé Nast spokeswoman said the company doesn’t “comment on rumor and speculation.”"

Answer with \"Yes\" or \"No\".\n\n[EX Q]: Dylan and Jez are two orphans who meet in their twenties and vow to achieve their shared childhood dream of living in a stately home . In pursuit of this dream they spend their days living in a disused gas holder , spending as little money as possible and conning the upper classes out of their riches . During one of their biggest cons , their lives are touched by Georgie , who needs money to save the Down's syndrome foundation that her brother attends . When a con goes wrong , the two find themselves in gaol to be released only after their entire fortune is rendered useless because of a recall of 50 notes . It is down to an elaborate plan involving Dylan , Jez and Georgie , to break them out of gaol in order to save their dream . The film , in essence , is part Ealing comedy , part underdog farce with a sequence of madcap adventures set against a striking soundtrack by contemporary Britpop artists . Unlike straight rom-coms or mainstream comedies of the period Shooting Fish contained a generous blending of fact and fantasy . <sep>Why were they conning the rich and living in a disused gas holder?<sep>Live in stable upper class\n[EX A]: No\n\n[EX Q]: Lash is associate dean at the University of Southern California Law School. Johnson is a justice on California's Second District Court of Appeal. Lash and Johnson are co-chairs of the California Commission on Access to Justice. The full report can be viewed at (www.calbar.org). In her year-long odyssey through the California justice system, Katherine, a 35-year-old single mother with three children, experienced failure at every turn. Leaving her abusive husband, she moved into the only apartment she could afford, and soon discovered a broken toilet and non- working oven, rats and roaches, and a fourthfloor landing with no railing. She began withholding rent pending repairs her landlord refused to make, but then her Medi-Cal benefits were cut off when she could not provide rent receipts. She lost health care for her children and herself, although she is a borderline diabetic in need of medication and her children were suffering from rat bites. Katherine tried to seek help through the courts. Representing herself at an administrative hearing, she lost her appeal to restore Medi-Cal benefits because she did not have proper documentation of the rent account. When she went to a courthouse to file a complaint against her landlord, she found the process so confusing that she gave up and went home. According to \"The Path to Justice: A Five-Year Status Report on Access to Justice in California,\" prepared by the California Commission on Access to Justice, Katherine is just one of 4.6 million poor Californians whose basic civil legal needs -- often involving such critical needs as housing, health care, education, employment, safety and transportation -- are not being addressed. California has a critical dearth of legal services for the poor, and, as this report makes clear, it is imperative that the state join with the federal government and private funders to increase resources so that all Californians, regardless of income, have equal access to our justice system. Our justice system is predicated on the assumption that both parties will be represented by lawyers who act as gatekeepers and guides through a complex legal system that would otherwise be inaccessible to many of us. Unfortunately, the most vulnerable members of our society are the least able to afford legal services. California does have a strong network of legal aid organizations that try to help meet the needs of the poor, but there's just one legal aid lawyer available per 10,000 poor people. We may promise \"justice for all,\" but for those who can't afford a lawyer, that promise is often a lie. In its new report, the Commission on Access to Justice notes some significant steps toward providing equal access to justice for all Californians. <sep>What repairs or issues caused Katherine to withhold rent?<sep>Katherine withheld rent because she felt she deserved new carpeting and a garbage disposal in her apartment\n[EX A]: No\n\n[EX Q]: Tim had always a red bike. His birthday party was coming up and he hoped that his parents would finally get him the bike. When his friends came over for the party, Tim was very worried that he wouldn't get the bike. He looked at all the presents and none of them seemed big enough to have a bike in them. Tim was sad. When it was time to open the presents he opened them one at a time. The first present was not a bike. The second present was not a bike. The third present was the biggest one. Tim knew if the bike was going to be in any of the presents it was going to be in this box. Tim opened it and there was no bike inside. Just as Tim tried not to look too upset, his Dad brought in the biggest present of them all. His Dad had been hiding the present all along. Tim opened it and his new bike was inside the box. Tim put the bike together with his Dad's help. <sep>How was Tim feeling right before he started opening presents?<sep>Anxious\n[EX A]:"

"content": "Article: In the event you and your guy friend do end up as more than friends, you'll have to work to establish extra intimacy. In order to make it clear you're now more than friends, work to show you care. Leave your guy friend surprises. Write him a special note telling him how much you care. Buy him a small present now and then. Be more physically affectionate. Seek to hold hands and cuddle when you're together. Sometimes, the transition between friends and more than friends can be confusing. It's a good idea to take measures to make sure your guy friend knows you want the relationship as much as he does. It may be easier to communicate openly when you started out as friends. You can have open, honest discussions with your partner about what you want out of the relationship, and what expectations you have regarding a romantic relationship. At first, you may have to reassure your partner a lot that you want the relationship. Let your partner know about once a week for the first few months you're happy to be more than friends. Another way to solidify the transition is altering how you socialize. Try to stay together at parties. Interact with mutual friends as a couple instead of one-on-one. At parties, stay in the same conversations rather than talking to people individually. You'll feel more like a couple than friends if you start doing things as a \"we\" instead of a \"you\" and a \"me.\" It can take time for a friendship to feel like a romance. Try not to have high expectations in regards to what your relationship will look like. It will take awhile to feel like more than friends, and there may be awkward or confusing interactions along the way. If you're committed to being more than friends, allow the transition to happen gradually. Stay patient and remember, if you really care about this person, the relationship will be worth it in the long run.\n\nWhat is a summary?"

Soon afterward, Jericho repeatedly called out WCW World Heavyweight Champion Goldberg in an attempt to begin a feud with him, but never actually wrestled him. Jericho cites Eric Bischoff, Goldberg and Hulk Hogan's refusal to book Jericho in a pay-per-view squash match loss against Goldberg, which Jericho felt would be a big draw, as a major reason for leaving the company. On November 30, Jericho lost the World Television Championship to Konnan. In early 1999, Jericho began a feud with Perry Saturn. The feud saw Jericho and Saturn instigating bizarre stipulation matches, such as at Souled Out, where Jericho defeated Saturn in a \"loser must wear a dress\" match. At SuperBrawl IX, Jericho and Saturn wrestled in a \"dress\" match which Jericho won. Saturn finally defeated Jericho at Uncensored in a Dog Collar match. Jericho alternated between WCW and a number of Japanese tours before he signed a contract with the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) on June 30. Jericho's final WCW match came during a Peoria, Illinois house show July 21, where he and Eddie Guerrero lost to Billy Kidman and Rey Mysterio Jr. in a tag team match.

"content": "Dallas (CNN)It has been almost one year since Corey Knowlton bid $350,000 for a hunting permit issued by the government of Namibia to hunt an endangered black rhinoceros. He hasn't gone on the hunt and it's still not entirely clear if he will ever shoot the animal. The controversial auction, held inside the Dallas Convention Center on a chilly Saturday evening in January, sparked a contentious debate over the best way to protect the species that has been brought to the edge of extinction because of humans' appetite for its horn, which is used for daggers, ornaments and, in Asia, traditional medicine. The auction became so heated that both Knowlton and the auction organizers feared for their safety after receiving strings of death threats that were investigated by the FBI. The Dallas Safari Club sponsored the auction, and billed it as a fundraising effort to help save the endangered species in Africa. Biggame.org and Knowlton said the auction was done in the name of conservation, to save the threatened black rhinoceros. All proceeds were to be donated to the Namibian government and earmarked for conservation and anti-poaching efforts, according to club officials and the Namibian Ministry of Environment and Tourism. Animal welfare groups strongly oppose the auction's conservation approach, and call the \"kill it to save it\" rationale misguided and outrageous. In spring, Knowlton applied for a permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that would enable him to import the \"trophy\" parts of the animal's body at the completion of the hunt in Namibia. The hunt would be organized and overseen by the Namibian authorities. \"In my opinion, I thought it would have happened by now,\" Knowlton told CNN in an exclusive interview, when asked if he was surprised that the permit process has taken so long. Knowlton said he is waiting to see what will happen with the permit request before he makes his decision whether to move forward with the hunt. \"Namibia wants us to come and participate in the hunt desperately,\" Knowlton said. \"The entire point of the auction in the United States was to be able to import the carcass, the remains of the black rhino into the United States. That's why they had the auction here, in the hopes that it would bring more money to conservation than the previous permits they have sold in Namibia.\" In addition to importing the rhino \"trophy,\" Knowlton also plans to distribute the rhino meat to Namibian villages after the hunt. The Endangered Species Act requires the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to determine that the import will enhance the species' survival and not be \"detrimental\" to the survival of the species. The act also requires that any federally authorized activity may not jeopardize the continued survival of the species in any way. \"The service looks closely at the individual circumstances of each import application, including the biology of the species, its current status in and beyond the country where the hunt will take place, and the threats it may be facing, as well as the overall management program for the species in that country, where the funds for the hunt will go and how they will be used,\" said Gavin Shire, chief of public affairs for the U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said it received over 15,000 public comments opposing the permit in the 30-day allocated comment period on its federal register, which closed on December 8. Many of the comments were \"identical or near identical form letters arguing to 'save the last of the black rhinos ... from American trophy hunter's greed and vanity.' \" Shire said all the comments will be \"examined for substantive information,\" and was unable to provide a time frame for when the service will make a decision on the permit. Helping or hurting the species? Animal conservationists estimate there are 5,000 black rhinos in the world, about 2,020 of which are in the southern Africa nation. They are considered a \"critically endangered species\" by wildlife organizations around the world. 5 white rhinos left in the world. Dr. Michael Knight, chairman of the International Union for Conservation of Nature African and Asian Rhino Specialist Groups, said the Namibian black rhino populations have been performing very well, growing at a very healthy 7% per year, thanks to conservation efforts. \"In population terms it's of minor significance, as we are talking about one old bull that would have contributed genetically to the rhino population already. In monetary terms, it's important as it generates funds that go directly into the Wildlife Products Fund that feeds 100% back into rhino conservation,\" Knight said. Knowlton stressed that the rhinos picked for hunting have no benefit to the population at large, and are in fact \"a detriment to the population.\" \"The animals chosen are earmarked ... at the end of their life. They are not going to help the enhancement of the black rhino species in any way. This way there is a chance that the death of that animal helps the entire species.\" Knowlton said by raising money from hunters like himself, the Namibian government can use the money for much needed \"anti-poaching\" resources and \"habitat enhancement.\" But sacrificing one animal for the greater good of the endangered species is a move that critics and animal conservation groups call \"perverse\" and a \"sad joke.\" \"They need to be protected, not sold to the highest bidder,\" said Jeffrey Flocken of the International Fund for Animal Welfare. \"It's a farce to say that this is being done for conservation,\" Flocken said. \"It's saying the rarity of this animal is worth more dead than alive.\" Several groups such as Flocken's argue it would be better to use these rhinos to promote wildlife viewing and ecotourism by charging people for the experience of seeing one of these ancient beasts up close in the wild. \"It also sends a dangerous message that these iconic and disappearing animals are worth more as dead trophies to be mounted and hung on a wall in a Texas mansion than living in the wild in Africa,\" Flocken said. Namibia was the first African country to incorporate protection of the environment into its constitution, and said its conservation program has contributed to it having the largest free-roaming population of black rhinos in the world. The Dallas Safari Club obtained the hunting permit from the Namibian government, which would oversee every aspect of Knowlton's expedition. It's the first time a black rhino hunting permit has been auctioned outside the country. In recent years, the Namibian Ministry of Environment and Tourism, which oversees the protection of the black rhinos, has allowed three permits a year. In a 2013 letter to the Dallas Safari Club, the Namibian government said, \"To hunt a black rhino is not taken lightly by Namibia. ... Only old geriatric bulls, which are marginalized in the population and do not contribute to reproduction, are trophy hunted.\" 'It really is a dilemma' The biggest threat to these massive beasts is poachers across the African continent. Rhino horns are lucrative on the black market. In Asia, where there are claims it can treat everything from headaches and food poisoning to rheumatism and cancer, horns can fetch up to $60,000 per kilogram, putting the value somewhere between gold and pure cocaine. In the 1980s, the black rhino population had dwindled to just a few dozen. Conservation efforts have slowly helped increase herd numbers, but poachers are still a threat. Marcia Fargnoli, chief executive officer of the Save the Rhino Trust in Namibia, which works with the government to fight poachers, said the group has tried to persuade the Namibian government to stop issuing hunting permits. But a poor African country like Namibia, where the World Bank estimates the gross per capita income to be less than $6,000, struggles to fund conservation efforts, Fargnoli said. It's difficult for the government to ignore the chance to raise so much money so quickly. \"I really believe every rhino counts,\" said Fargnoli. \"It really is a dilemma. ... But I really struggle to say I'm saving rhinos and then say that one can be hunted.\" Knowlton hosts the hunting show \"Uncharted\" on The Outdoor Channel and he also organizes high-end hunting adventures around the world. He described himself as a \"passionate conservationist,\" and stressed that animal lovers should research the facts before having \"emotional\" reactions. There is no doubt in his mind that what he is doing is extremely important in helping the black rhino species in the long run. \"The Namibian government is looking at it in a sustainable way. And I believe hunters at large are looking at it as a way to maintain a population in a sustainable way.\"\nSummarize the highlights of this article."

Matches are necessary in order to chat, so make sure you take the time to craft a quality profile and start sifting through your potential matches. See this guide for detailed instructions for installing the app and creating a solid profile. Tinder is available for free for both iOS and Android, and requires a Facebook profile. You should be using all of the available photo slots for various pictures of yourself. Ensure that you aren't posting any pictures of you with a member of the opposite sex, that you aren't in a picture with a child, or that they aren't all group photos. Make sure you're smiling! You can chat with anyone that you've \"Liked\" who has also \"Liked\" you back. Open the Matches menu and tap on one of your matches to open a chat window. Wait about a day after the match is made before you strike up a conversation. Take the initiative with the conversation. It shows confidence and a willingness to take control. Don't be discouraged if you don't get a reply. Not everyone will respond to your messages. Brush yourself off and try again with your next match. . Avoid a simple \"Hi\" or \"Hello\", as this is sure to turn off the majority of people you're chatting with. Look closely at the other person's profile photos and bio to glean any interests. For example, if you see a guy with a surfboard, ask about his favorite surfing spots. Make sure your grammar and spelling is correct all the time, especially in the beginning of your conversation. Remember, first impressions last! Ask simple questions to learn more about the person you're talking to. What are his/her hobbies, interests, etc.? Avoid asking questions that are too personal. Keep your approach casual. Talk like you’re talking to a friend that you've known for a long time. Stay calm and keep your cool.\n\nSummary: Install Tinder and make some matches. Use good profile pictures. Start up the conversation. Get creative with your opening lines Ask questions.\n\n\nUse the handle of a rat-tail comb to separate a thin strand of hair from the middle section. Pull it taut so that it is perpendicular to your head. Select a strand that is no larger than the diameter of the perm rod you plan to use, since packing too much hair onto a rod can result in limp curls. You can start at your front hairline or at the back of your crown. If you did the latter, you’ll have to go back and do the front once you reach your nape. Place an end paper against the hair strand, so that half of it is hanging off the side. Fold the excess paper under the hair strand so that it's sandwiched inside. Next, slide the end paper towards the bottom of the hair section. It would be a good idea to fold some end papers in half ahead of time. This way, you can just slide it over the edge of the hair strand, then pull it down. Place the end of the hair strand on top of a curling rod. Wrap the hair around the curling rod until you reach your scalp, then close the rod. Choose a rod size that’s appropriate for the curl size you want. Remember: the larger the rod, the larger and looser the curl. Roll the rod downward, away from your forehead and towards your nape. If you started from the back of your crown, work your way down to your nape first, then go back and do the front section. If you started from your hairline, just work your way down to your nape. Make sure that all of the hair from the middle section goes into the rod. Choose a side to start with, and unravel the run. Create a vertical part, somewhere behind your ear, and wrap the front section of hair into a bun. Apply more rods horizontally in a vertical column, then do the front section of hair (the one that’s in front of your ears). The ends of the rods need to be touching each other--including the side-back section and the middle section. Start applying the rods at the top of the side section, right under the middle section, and finish at your hairline. At this point, your hair may start to dry as you work with it. If that happens, simply mist it with water. This will make it easier to wrap around the rod. This is very important, as you’ll need some sort of barrier between your skin and the perm solution. Purchase a strip of cotton batting from an online or local beauty supply store, then wrap it around your hairline, tucking it under the edges of the rods. The cotton batting is not fabric. It looks like a long cotton ball. It’s similar to what you’d find at a nail salon.\n\nSummary: Take a thin strand of hair from the middle section. Fold an end paper around the end of the hair strand. Wrap the hair strand around a curling rod. Repeat the process for the entire middle section. Apply 2 columns of rods to each side section. Wrap a cotton strip around your hairline, tucking it under the rods.\n\n\nPlace the tip of your wood glue at the edge of your inner label, and squeeze the bottle with light pressure. As the record spins, continue squeezing out the glue so it creates lines around your record. Stop when you reach the outer edge. You should have thin, even lines over all of your record. Your record will have stripes of glue following the circular grooves of the vinyl. If you squeeze out too much glue on the vinyl, that's okay. You will even out the amount of glue. However, if you use too much towards the outer edge, use a paper towel to wipe up the excess. If you are worried about getting glue on your turntable, you can apply the glue to the record on a table instead. The spinning of the turntable helps spread the glue across your record. Take a piece of cardboard or cardstock about 2 inches (51 mm) wide, and touch it to the outer edge of your record. Let your record continue to spin, and the glue will spread out and cover the record as it moves. Then, lift up on your card and place it at the inside of your record to spread out all of the glue. You can leave your hand stationary and let the spin of the record spread the glue for you. You will have a smooth, even surface of wood glue covering the entirety of your record. You can leave your record on your turntable overnight. To see if the wood glue is dry, you can gently touch the outer edge of the glue with your finger. If it still feels sticky, let it sit for 1-2 more hours and try again. You can also leave your record on a piece of newspaper to dry if you do not use a turntable. Using your index finger and your thumb, pull up on the outer edge of the wood glue. Then, lift up with steady, consistent force to peel away all of the glue. Remove the glue slowly and gradually to try to pull it up in 1 piece. If your wood glue does not peel in 1 solid layer, that’s okay! Lift up at another edge and peel away the glue until it is completely removed. Avoid touching the surface of your record as you peel away the glue. Put the arm of your turntable onto your record and power it on. Listen to your record, and the part of the song that used to skip may play clearly now. Wood glue can help your vinyl by capturing even the toughest dirt and dust. Keep in mind that using wood glue does not guarantee your record will be fixed. The wood glue provides a thorough clean of the entire record by removing any dirt and debris and smoothing over uneven vinyl surfaces. If your record still skips, try another coat of wood glue or another vinyl cleaning method. You could also search online for a professional vinyl restorer near you.\n\n"

Passengers with a TQWL ticket will get their ticket confirmed only if there are cancellations in the tatkal quota by other passengers or if there are any available reserved seats left in the tatkal quota.\n\nThe confirmation of a TQWL ticket is not guaranteed and depends on several factors, such as the route, time of booking, and season. It is challenging to predict an exact time frame for a TQWL ticket to get confirmed, as this depends on the demand for other confirmed tickets in the same train journey. A ticket might get confirmed just a few hours before the train's departure or may not get confirmed at all.\n\nQuestion 2: What happens if a waiting list e-ticket does not get confirmed?\n\nIf a waiting list e-ticket (whether general or tatkal quota) does not get confirmed by the time the chart is prepared (usually a few hours before the train's departure), the ticket is considered invalid, and the passenger is not allowed to board the train. In this case, the e-ticket is automatically canceled, and the ticket amount is refunded to the passenger, after deducting the nominal cancellation charges.\n\nSo, while these two questions are related to train ticket waitlists and confirmations, they ask about different aspects of the process. The first question specifically focuses on the confirmation timeline for TQWL tickets, and the second question discusses the consequences of not having a confirmed waiting list e-ticket."

Both times the service has been bad, which is sad considering the disclaimer on the menu stating \"every server is YOUR server!\" Yeah? well apparently they are ALL terrible servers. The management, who was at the register the second time, had a terrible personality. I encountered the worst of the service the second time...I went in and stood at the bar (while waiting for our table) to order a Bloody Mary and some Mimosa's for my friends; after waiting at the bar (directly next to the cashier line) for 5 minutes and watching multiple servers come behind the bar and ignore me, I thought \"maybe I'm supposed to get in the register line to order.\" I got in the register line and once reaching the cashier and ordering drinks, I was told \"I can get your drink order after I clear the line, step aside.\" That was irritating, to say the least, and delivered in such a rude tone that everyone in my party had there jaws dropped when I turned to look at them. After being seated (I wanted to leave, but hey, I was starving at this point), we FINALLY were able to get our drinks. Our food was mediocre at best (both visits)...I've seen and tasted 8 different menu items so far (sampling friends food) and none of it was very impressive. Omelets are much better at Zada Jane's, Pewter Rose, even Skyland's! The french TOAST was not very flavorful and not as warm as it should have been. The actual regular TOAST (this is the name of the place) was cold and not buttered on both visits! (Of course they did give you plastic packets of butter that was cold and hard and would not spread on the also cold and hard toast). We have some great brunch places in Charlotte, for one named after a breakfast dish, Toast is awful.\n\nOPTIONS:\n- negative\n- positive\n+++++++++\n"

He decided not to steal any of the 40,000 pounds (18,000 kg) of ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil) he found at the scene, as he did not believe it to be powerful enough (although he did obtain seventeen bags of ANFO from another source for use in the bomb). McVeigh made a prototype bomb which was detonated in the desert to avoid detection. Later, speaking about the military mindset with which he went about the preparations, he said, \"You learn how to handle killing in the military. I face the consequences, but you learn to accept it.\" He compared his actions to the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, rather than the attack on Pearl Harbor, reasoning it was necessary to prevent more lives from being lost.On April 14, 1995, McVeigh paid for a motel room at the Dreamland Motel in Junction City, Kansas. The following day he rented a 1993 Ford F-700 truck from Ryder under the name Robert D. Kling, an alias he adopted because he knew an Army soldier named Kling with whom he shared physical characteristics, and because it reminded him of the Klingon warriors of Star Trek. On April 16, 1995, he drove to Oklahoma City with fellow conspirator Terry Nichols where he parked a getaway car several blocks away from the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. The nearby Regency Towers Apartments' lobby security camera recorded images of Nichols's blue 1984 GMC pickup truck on April 16. After removing the license plate from the car, he left a note covering the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) plate that read, \"Not abandoned. Please do not tow. Will move by April 23. (Needs battery & cable).\" Both men then returned to Kansas. Guess a valid title for it!\nAnswer: Oklahoma City bombing\n\n[Q]: Given the below context: Jimmy Carter said, \"in many countries around the world – my wife and I have visited about 125 countries– you hear John Lennon's song 'Imagine' used almost equally with national anthems.\" On 9 October 2010, which would have been Lennon's 70th birthday, the Liverpool Singing Choir performed \"Imagine\" along with other Lennon songs at the unveiling of the John Lennon Peace Monument in Chavasse Park, Liverpool, England. Beatles producer George Martin praised Lennon's solo work, singling out the composition: \"My favourite song of all was 'Imagine'\". Music critic Paul Du Noyer described \"Imagine\" as Lennon's \"most revered\" post-Beatles song. Authors Ben Urish and Ken Bielen called it \"the most subversive pop song recorded to achieve classic status\". Fricke commented: \"'Imagine' is a subtly contentious song, Lennon's greatest combined achievement as a balladeer and agitator.\"Urish and Bielen criticised the song's instrumental music as overly sentimental and melodramatic, comparing it to the music of the pre-rock era and describing the vocal melody as understated. According to Blaney, Lennon's lyrics describe hypothetical possibilities that offer no practical solutions; lyrics that are at times nebulous and contradictory, asking the listener to abandon political systems while encouraging one similar to communism. Author Chris Ingham indicated the hypocrisy in Lennon, the millionaire rock star living in a mansion, encouraging listeners to imagine living their lives without possessions. Others argue that Lennon intended the song's lyrics to inspire listeners to imagine if the world could live without possessions, not as an explicit call to give them up. Blaney commented: \"Lennon knew he had nothing concrete to offer, so instead he offers a dream, a concept to be built upon.\"Blaney considered the song to be \"riddled with contradictions. Its hymn-like setting sits uncomfortably alongside its author's plea for us to envision a world without religion.\" Urish and Bielen described Lennon's \"dream world\" without a heaven or... Guess a valid title for it!\n****\n[A]: \"Imagine\" (John Lennon song)\n\ninput: Please answer the following: Given the below context: Bennett was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, the third child and only son of Robert Bennett, the organist of Sheffield parish church, and his wife Elizabeth, née Donn. In addition to his duties as an organist, Robert Bennett was a conductor, composer and piano teacher; he named his son after his friend William Sterndale, some of whose poems the elder Bennett had set to music. His mother died in 1818, aged 27, and his father, after remarrying, died in 1819. Thus orphaned at the age of three, Bennett was brought up in Cambridge by his paternal grandfather, John Bennett, from whom he received his first musical education. John Bennett was a professional bass, who sang as a lay clerk in the choirs of King's, St John's and Trinity colleges. The young Bennett entered the choir of King's College Chapel in February 1824 where he remained for two years. In 1826, at the age of ten, he was accepted into the Royal Academy of Music (RAM), which had been founded in 1822. The examiners were so impressed by the child's talent that they waived all fees for his tuition and board.Bennett was a pupil at the RAM for the next ten years. At his grandfather's wish his principal instrumental studies were at first as a violinist, under Paolo Spagnoletti and later Antonio James Oury. He also studied the piano under W. H. Holmes, and after five years, with his grandfather's agreement, he took the piano as his principal study. He was a shy youth and was diffident about his skill in composition, which he studied under the principal of the RAM, William Crotch, and then under Cipriani Potter, who took over as principal in 1832. Amongst the friends Bennett made at the Academy was the future music critic J. W. Davison. Bennett did not study singing, but when the RAM mounted a student production of The Marriage of Figaro in 1830, Bennett, aged fourteen, was cast in the mezzo-soprano role of the page boy Cherubino (usually played by a woman en travesti). This was among the few failures of his career at the RAM. The Observer wryly commented, \"of the... Guess a valid title for it!\n++++++++++\noutput:"

"content": "Yes, the two sentences convey opposite meanings. Let's break them down for better clarity.\n\n1. \"In later life he was an atheist, but in the early stages became a believer.\"\nThis sentence expresses that the person in question started off as a believer in the early stages of life. However, as time went by and the person grew older, they changed their beliefs and became an atheist in their later life.\n\nHere, the timeline of the person's beliefs is as follows:\n\n- Early stages of life: Believer\n- Later life: Atheist\n\n2. \"He was an atheist in early life but converted into a believer in the later stages.\"\nThis sentence has the opposite meaning as the first one. It conveys that the person was initially an atheist during the early stages of their life. As they grew older and progressed in life, their beliefs changed, resulting in their conversion to a believer in the later stages.\n\nIn this case, the timeline of the person's beliefs is as follows:\n\n- Early stages of life: Atheist\n- Later life: Believer\n\nSo while both sentences describe changes in a person's belief system, the initial and final states of their beliefs are opposite between the two sentences. In the first sentence, the person starts as a believer and becomes an atheist, while in the second sentence, the person starts as an atheist and becomes a believer."

This provided the foundation for subsequent Slavic states to arise on the former territory of this realm with Carantania being the oldest of them. Very old also are the Principality of Nitra and the Moravian principality (see under Great Moravia). In this period, there existed central Slavic groups and states such as the Balaton Principality, but the subsequent expansion of the Magyars, as well as the Germanisation of Austria, separated the northern and southern Slavs. The First Bulgarian Empire was founded in 681, the Slavic language Old Bulgarian became the main and official of the empire in 864. Bulgaria was instrumental in the spread of Slavic literacy and Christianity to the rest of the Slavic world.\nWhen did Samo become the ruler of the first known Slav state?"

Context: During the ceremony of initiation, the candidate is expected to swear (usually on a volume of sacred text appropriate to his personal religious faith) to fulfil certain obligations as a Mason. In the course of three degrees, new masons will promise to keep the secrets of their degree from lower degrees and outsiders, and to support a fellow Mason in distress (as far as practicality and the law permit). There is instruction as to the duties of a Freemason, but on the whole, Freemasons are left to explore the craft in the manner they find most satisfying. Some will further explore the ritual and symbolism of the craft, others will focus their involvement on the social side of the Lodge, while still others will concentrate on the charitable functions of the lodge.???\noutput answer: keep the secrets of their degree from lower degrees and outsiders, and to support a fellow Mason in distress\n\ninput question: Extract the answer to the question from the following context.

Rates vary between countries with prevalences between 1 and 18%. It is more common in developed than developing countries. One thus sees lower rates in Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa. Within developed countries it is more common in those who are economically disadvantaged while in contrast in developing countries it is more common in the affluent.

English is understood in hotels and restaurants, and a small population of Anglophones have been resident in Gustavia for many years. The St. Barthélemy French patois is spoken by some 500–700 people in the leeward portion of the island and is superficially related to Quebec French, whereas Créole French is limited to the windward side. Unlike other populations in the Caribbean, language preference between the Créole and Patois is geographically, and not racially, determined.[page needed]???\noutput answer:"
