Antique stores are knowledgeable in the history and value of the pieces they sell, allowing you to indulge in the fascinating stories behind each item while ensuring that you are getting an authentic piece. They usually have a network of sources and collectors to help you in finding the exact piece that you are looking for, even if it might not be in their current inventory.

Paragraph: Sometimes a full Moon moves through Earths shadow. This is a lunar eclipse . During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon travels completely in Earths umbra. During a partial lunar eclipse, only a portion of the Moon enters Earths umbra. When the Moon passes through Earths penumbra, it is a penumbral eclipse. Since Earths shadow is large, a lunar eclipse lasts for hours. Anyone with a view of the Moon can see a lunar eclipse. So unlike a solar eclipse, it doesnt get dark on Earth. Instead it gets dark on the Moon. Partial lunar eclipses occur at least twice a year, but total lunar eclipses are less common. The Moon glows with a dull red coloring during a total lunar eclipse.
Question: "What is the difference between a total lunar eclipse and a partial lunar eclipse?"
Answer: "The difference is in lenght"
Based on the paragraph, is this answer correct
No, the answer is not correct. The correct answer should be: "The difference between a total lunar eclipse and a partial lunar eclipse is that during a total lunar eclipse, the Moon travels completely in Earth's umbra, while in a partial lunar eclipse, only a portion of the Moon enters Earth's umbra."

Joey got a German Shepherd for his birthday present. He had never had any pets before, but was always excited to see the other dogs and cats in his neighborhood. Since his birthday was in June, he spent a lot of time playing outside with his new puppy, which he named Max. Max and Joey would often run through fields in a game of chase. They also liked to go through the small forest behind the house, making a game of hide and seek. They never went near the lake because Joey was afraid of water. One day, Max hid a little too well and Joey couldn't find him. Joey spent the afternoon looking for his German Shepherd where they often played, like the field and forest. Joey was a shy boy who often read by himself, and Max was his best friend. After dinner, he went to look for Max one last time before he had to take a bath and go to bed. He heard some barking on the next street, so he ran to see if it was his puppy. Sure enough, he saw Max playing with a poodle. The dogs were having so much fun. Joey brought Max home, happy that he had his puppy back. Max seemed to be happy to have his human by his side as well as a new doggy friend. All summer long, Joey took Max to the poodle's house so they could play without having to worry about losing his present.
Choose from options: Based on the paragraph, does the response "To the pound to get a new dog" correctly answer the question "Where did Joey go after dinner and why?"?
Available choices: +no +yes
+no
The response "To the pound to get a new dog" is incorrect because after dinner, Joey went to look for Max, his lost German Shepherd, not to get a new dog. He heard some barking on the next street and found Max playing with a poodle.

Question: Information: - "Like a Rolling Stone" is a 1965 song by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. Its confrontational lyrics originated in an extended piece of verse Dylan wrote in June 1965, when he returned exhausted from a grueling tour of England. Dylan distilled this draft into four verses and a chorus. "Like a Rolling Stone" was recorded a few weeks later as part of the sessions for the forthcoming album "Highway 61 Revisited". - CBS (an initialism of the network's former name, the Columbia Broadcasting System) is an American commercial broadcast television network that is a flagship property of CBS Corporation. The company is headquartered at the CBS Building in New York City with major production facilities and operations in New York City (at the CBS Broadcast Center) and Los Angeles (at CBS Television City and the CBS Studio Center). - An artist is a person engaged in one or more of any of a broad spectrum of activities related to creating art, practicing the arts or demonstrating an art. The common usage in both everyday speech and academic discourse is a practitioner in the visual arts only. The term is often used in the entertainment business, especially in a business context, for musicians and other performers (less often for actors). "Artiste" (the French for artist) is a variant used in English only in this context. Use of the term to describe writers, for example, is valid, but less common, and mostly restricted to contexts like criticism. - Folk music includes both traditional music and the genre that evolved from it during the 20th century folk revival. The term originated in the 19th century but is often applied to music that is older than that. Some types of folk music are also called world music. "Traditional folk music" has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted orally, music with unknown composers, or music performed by custom over a long period of time. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. - The guitar is a musical instrument classified as a string instrument with anywhere from four to 18 strings, usually having six. The sound is projected either acoustically, using a hollow wooden or plastic and wood box (for an acoustic guitar), or through electrical amplifier and a speaker (for an electric guitar). It is typically played by strumming or plucking the strings with the fingers, thumb and/or fingernails of the right hand or with a pick while fretting (or pressing against the frets) the strings with the fingers of the left hand. The guitar is a type of chordophone, traditionally constructed from wood and strung with either gut, nylon or steel strings and distinguished from other chordophones by its construction and tuning. The modern guitar was preceded by the gittern, the vihuela, the four-course Renaissance guitar, and the five-course baroque guitar, all of which contributed to the development of the modern six-string instrument. - Columbia Records (also known simply as Columbia) is an American record label owned by Sony Music Entertainment (SME), a subsidiary of Sony Corporation of America, Inc., the United States division of Sony Corporation. It was founded in 1887, evolving from an earlier enterprise named the American Graphophone Company, the successor to the Volta Graphophone Company. Columbia is the oldest surviving brand name in the recorded sound business, being the second major record company to produce recorded records. Columbia Records went on to release records by an array of notable singers, instrumentalists, and bands. From 1961 to 1990, its recordings were released outside the U.S. and Canada by the CBS Records label (which was named after the Columbia Broadcasting System) to avoid confusion with the EMI label of the same name, before adopting the Columbia name internationally in 1990. It is one of Sony Music's three flagship record labels alongside RCA Records and Epic Records. - The American folk-music revival was a phenomenon in the United States that began during the 1940s and peaked in popularity in the mid-1960s. Its roots went earlier, and performers like Josh White, Burl Ives, Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, Big Bill Broonzy, Richard Dyer-Bennet, Oscar Brand, Jean Ritchie, John Jacob Niles, Susan Reed, Paul Robeson and Cisco Houston had enjoyed a limited general popularity in the 1930s and 1940s. The revival brought forward styles of American folk music that had, in earlier times, contributed to the development of country and western, jazz, and rock and roll music. - Sony Corporation is the electronics business unit and the parent company of the Sony Group, which is engaged in business through its four operating components electronics (video games, network services and medical business), motion pictures, music and financial services. These make Sony one of the most comprehensive entertainment companies in the world. Sony's principal business operations include Sony Corporation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Sony Music Entertainment, Sony Mobile (formerly Sony Ericsson) and Sony Financial. Sony is among the Semiconductor sales leaders by year and as of 2013, the fourth-largest television manufacturer in the world, after Samsung Electronics, LG Electronics and TCL. - A writer is a person who uses written words in various styles and techniques to communicate their ideas. Writers produce various forms of literary art and creative writing such as novels, short stories, poetry, plays, screenplays, and essays as well as various reports and news articles that may be of interest to the public. Writers' texts are published across a range of media. Skilled writers who are able to use language to express ideas well often contribute significantly to the cultural content of a society. The word is also used elsewhere in the arts such as songwriter but as a standalone term, "writer" normally refers to the creation of written language. Some writers work from an oral tradition. - "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall" is a song written by Bob Dylan in the summer of 1962. It was first recorded in Columbia Records' Studio A on December 6, 1962 for his second album "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan". The lyrical structure is based on the question and answer form of traditional ballads such as Lord Randall. Dylan has stated that all of the lyrics were taken from the initial lines of songs that "he thought he would never have time to write." - Bob Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American songwriter, singer, artist, and writer. He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when his songs chronicled social unrest. Early songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" became anthems for the American civil rights and anti-war movements. Leaving behind his initial base in the American folk music revival, his six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone", recorded in 1965, enlarged the range of popular music. - Highway 61 Revisited is the sixth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan. It was released on August 30, 1965, by Columbia Records. Having until then recorded mostly acoustic music, Dylan used rock musicians as his backing band on every track of the album, except for the closing 11-minute ballad, "Desolation Row". Critics have focused on the innovative way in which Dylan combined driving, blues-based music with the subtlety of poetry to create songs that captured the political and cultural chaos of contemporary America. Author Michael Gray has argued that in an important sense the 1960s "started" with this album. - Rolling Stone is an American biweekly magazine that focuses on popular culture. It was founded in San Francisco in 1967 by Jann Wenner, who is still the magazine's publisher, and the music critic Ralph J. Gleason. It was first known for its musical coverage and for political reporting by Hunter S. Thompson. In the 1990s, the magazine shifted focus to a younger readership interested in youth-oriented television shows, film actors, and popular music. In recent years, it has resumed its traditional mix of content. - A protest song is a song that is associated with a movement for social change and hence part of the broader category of "topical" songs (or songs connected to current events). It may be folk, classical, or commercial in genre. - RCA Records is an American major record label owned by Sony Music Entertainment (SME). It is one of SME's flagship record labels alongside sister labels Columbia Records and Epic Records. The label has released multiple genres of music, including pop, rock, hip hop, R&B, blues, jazz, and country. The company's name is derived from the initials of the label's former parent company, Radio Corporation of America (RCA). It is the second oldest recording company in U.S. history, after sister label Columbia Records. RCA's Canadian unit (formerly Berliner Gramophone Canada) is Sony's oldest label in Canada. It was one of only two Canadian record companies to survive the Great Depression. - "Blowin' in the Wind" is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962 and released as a single and on his album "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" in 1963. Although it has been described as a protest song, it poses a series of rhetorical questions about peace, war and freedom. The refrain "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind" has been described as "impenetrably ambiguous: either the answer is so obvious it is right in your face, or the answer is as intangible as the wind". - A subsidiary, subsidiary company or daughter company is a company that is owned or controlled by another company, which is called the "parent company", "parent", or "holding company". The subsidiary can be a company, corporation, or limited liability company. In some cases it is a government or state-owned enterprise. - `` Gates of Eden '' is a song by Bob Dylan that appears on his fifth studio album Bringing It All Back Home , released on March 22 , 1965 by Columbia Records . It was also released as a single as the B - side of `` Like a Rolling Stone '' . Dylan plays the song solo , accompanying himself on acoustic guitar and harmonica . It is one of his more surreal songs . In a 2005 Mojo magazine poll of its writers and various well - known musicians , `` Gates of Eden '' was ranked 69th among Dylan 's 100 greatest songs . - A record label or record company is a brand or trademark associated with the marketing of music recordings and music videos. Often, a record label is also a publishing company that manages such brands and trademarks, coordinates the production, manufacture, distribution, marketing, promotion, and enforcement of copyright for sound recordings and music videos; conducts talent scouting and development of new artists ("artists and repertoire" or "A&R"); and maintains contracts with recording artists and their managers. The term "record label" derives from the circular label in the center of a vinyl record which prominently displays the manufacturer's name, along with other information. - EMI (officially EMI Group Limited, originally an initialism for Electric and Musical Industries and often known as EMI Records and EMI Music) was a British multinational conglomerate founded in March 1931 and was based in London. At the time of its break-up in 2012, it was the fourth-largest business group and family of record labels in the recording industry and was one of the big four record companies (now the big three). Its EMI Records Ltd. group of record labels included EMI Records, Parlophone, Virgin Records and Capitol Records. EMI also had a major publishing arm, EMI Music Publishingalso based in London with offices globally. - A songwriter is an individual who writes the lyrics, melodies and chord progressions for songs, typically for a popular music genre such as rock or country music. A songwriter can also be called a composer, although the latter term tends to be used mainly for individuals from the classical music genre. The pressure from the music industry to produce popular hits means that songwriting is often an activity for which the tasks are distributed between a number of people. For example, a songwriter who excels at writing lyrics might be paired with a songwriter with a gift for creating original melodies. Pop songs may be written by group members from the band or by staff writers songwriters directly employed by music publishers. Some songwriters serve as their own music publishers, while others have outside publishers. - American folk music is a musical term that encompasses numerous genres, many of which are known as traditional music, traditional folk music, contemporary folk music or roots music. Many traditional songs have been sung within the same family or folk group for generations, and can sometimes be traced back to such places of origin as Great Britain, Europe, or Africa. Mike Seeger once famously commented that the definition of American folk music is "All the music that fits between the cracks." - Epic Records is an American record company. A division of Sony Music Entertainment, Inc., Epic was founded predominantly as a jazz and classical music label in 1953. It later expanded its scope to include diverse musical genres including pop, R&B, rock and hip hop. Historically, the label has housed popular acts such as Boston, Celine Dion, Dave Clark Five, Gloria Estefan, Pearl Jam, Shakira, and Sly & the Family Stone. - Bringing It All Back Home is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on March 22, 1965 by Columbia Records. The album is divided into an electric and an acoustic side, although the acoustic side included some tracks in which other instruments were backing up Dylan and his guitar, but no drums were used. On side one of the original LP, Dylan is backed by an electric rock and roll banda move that further alienated him from some of his former peers in the folk music community. Likewise, on the acoustic second side of the album, he distanced himself from the protest songs with which he had become closely identified (such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall"), as his lyrics continued their trend towards the abstract and personal. - Rock and roll (often written as rock & roll or rock 'n' roll) is a genre of popular music that originated and evolved in the United States during the late 1940s and early 1950s, from African-American musical styles such as gospel, jazz, boogie woogie, and rhythm and blues, with country. While elements of rock and roll can be heard in blues records from the 1920s and in country records of the 1930s, the genre did not acquire its name until the 1950s. 'gates of eden ' is related to which object entity through the relation of 'genre'? Choices: - acoustic music - album - art - baroque - blues - contemporary folk music - country music - criticism - epic - family - government - hip hop - information - magazine - march - marketing - music - music critic - musical - news - pop - popular music - protest song - radio - renaissance - rhythm - rock - rock and roll - society - song - television - various - video - war - world music - youth

Solve this math problem
Solve 25*a - 340 = 11*a - 29*a - 1931 for a.
Let's solve the given equation 25*a - 340 = 11*a - 29*a - 1931 for the variable 'a'.
Before we get to simplifying the equation, let's first combine the like terms on both left and right-hand sides.
The left side of the equation is simple enough, it is still 25a - 340.
For the right-hand side, we see 11a and -29a, which are like terms (meaning they contain the same variable 'a'). By combining these like terms, we get:
11a - 29a = -18a.
Hence, we can rewrite the equation as:
25a - 340 = -18a - 1931
Next, we want to gather terms with 'a' on one side of the equation and the constant terms on the other side to facilitate further simplification. We will add 18a to both sides of the equation to move -18a from the right to the left. We have:
25a + 18a = - 1931+ 340
This simplifies to:
43a = -1591
Finally, to solve for 'a', we can divide both sides of the equation by 43:
a = -1591 / 43
Hence, the solution to the equation is:
a = -37.
So, for the given equation 25*a - 340 = 11*a - 29*a - 1931, the value of 'a' that satisfies the equation is -37.

Q:Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: A month went by in this manner , but a month was all I could bear . The memory of Marguerite accompanied me wherever I went . I had loved that woman --- still loved her --- too much for her suddenly to mean nothing to me . Whatever feelings I might have for her now , I had to see her again . At once . ... I knew Marguerite . Meeting me so unexpectedly must have thrown her into a state of great confusion . Probably , she had heard of my departure which had set her mind at rest as to the consequences of our sudden parting . But , seeing me back and coming face to face with me , pale as I was , she had sensed that my return had a purpose , and must have wondered what was going to happen . If , when I saw her again , Marguerite had been unhappy ; if , in taking my revenge , there had also been some way of helping her , then I might well have forgiven her , and would certainly never have dreamed of doing her any harm . But when I saw her again , she was happy , at least on the surface . Another man had ensured her the luxury in which I had been unable to keep her . She brought shame both to my pride and my love ; she was going to have to pay for what I had suffered . I could not remain indifferent to what she did now . It followed that the thing that would hurt her most would be exactly for me to show indifference . Indifference , therefore , was the feeling which I now needed to pretend , not only in her presence but in the eyes of others . I tried to put a smile on my face , and I went to call on Prudence with whom Marguerite was staying . Prudence saw me to the door , and I returned to my apartment with tears of anger in my eyes and thirst for revenge in my heart and thought only of finding a way to make the poor creature suffer . Question: What kind of feelings did the hero most probably have ? - Indifference and love . - Indifference and hate . - Love and hate . - Hate and sadness .
A:
The hero most probably had feelings of love and hate.

What is a shorter version of this:
as his friends and colleagues in the navy struggled to understand what had driven adm. jeremy boorda to suicide , president clinton on tuesday remembered the navy 's highest ranking officer as a devoted sailor whose `` deep sense of honor '' should never have been questioned .
As Navy members grappled with Adm. Jeremy Boorda's suicide motives, President Clinton honored the top officer's dedication and unshakeable honor.
Step 1: Identify the main points - friends/colleagues' struggle to understand, admiral's suicide, President Clinton's statement.
Step 2: Shorten phrases - "struggled to understand" becomes "grappled with," "navy's highest-ranking officer" becomes "top officer."
Step 3: Remove less important details - "on Tuesday" is removed as it does not significantly contribute to the overall meaning.
Step 4: Condense remaining points - integrate the key points into a single, coherent sentence.

Process: - Wind and water erode rocks - The wind and water pick up sediment that came off the rocks - Sediment is carried to an area by the wind, water, air, or ice - Sediment is deposited on the same spot many times - The sediment piles on top of other sediment for a long time - The sediment near the bottom is compressed by the weight of newer sediment - The sediment becomes sedimentary rock as it is pushed together by the heavy weight - Question: suppose the climate changes happens, how will it affect MORE sedimentary rock forming. How does the supposed perturbation influence the second effect mentioned. Answer by more, less or no effect
Climate change can have a significant impact on the formation of sedimentary rocks, depending on the specific changes that take place. The effects can be more, less, or even no influence, depending on the nature of the climate change. Here's how different climate change scenarios can affect sedimentary rock formation:
1. More effect: If climate change causes an increase in precipitation and/or more extreme weather events such as storms and hurricanes, there will likely be more erosion of rocks due to the enhanced wind and water activity. This would result in an increased amount of sediment being picked up and transported by wind, water, air, or ice. Consequently, more sediment would be deposited in areas, leading to a higher rate of sedimentary rock formation as the sediment layers are compressed under the weight of new deposits.
2. Less effect: Conversely, if climate change results in a decrease in precipitation, reduced water and wind erosion would lead to less sediment being generated and transported. In areas where ice plays a significant role in transporting sediment, climate change may also cause the melting of glaciers and ice sheets, resulting in a decrease in sediment carrying capacity. Ultimately, this would lead to a reduced rate of sedimentary rock formation due to less sediment deposition and compression.
3. No effect: In some cases, climate change may not have a significant impact on sedimentary rock formation. This could occur in regions where the changes in temperature and precipitation do not drastically alter the erosion rates or the transportation and deposition of sediment. In these cases, the formation of sedimentary rocks would continue at a similar pace, regardless of climate change.
In summary, the impact of climate change on sedimentary rock formation can be more, less, or no effect depending on the specific changes to precipitation, temperature, or other aspects of the climate. Changes in precipitation patterns and the intensity of erosive forces like wind and water tend to have the most significant influence on the formation of sedimentary rocks.

Answer the following question: A friend asked me to answer this question: What is the last name of the person who was honored in 1884 and awarded with a lifetime pension?, using the article: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (English: chy-KOF-skee; Russian: Пётр Ильи́ч Чайко́вский, tr. Pyótr Ilʹyích Chaykóvskiy, IPA: [pʲɵtr ɪlʲˈjitɕ tɕɪjˈkofskʲɪj] (listen); 7 May 1840 [O.S. 25 April] – 6 November [O.S. 25 October] 1893), was a Russian composer of the romantic period, whose works are among the most popular music in the classical repertoire. He was the first Russian composer whose music made a lasting impression internationally, bolstered by his appearances as a guest conductor in Europe and the United States. He was honored in 1884 by Emperor Alexander III, and awarded a lifetime pension. Although musically precocious, Tchaikovsky was educated for a career as a civil servant. There was scant opportunity for a musical career in Russia at that time and no system of public music education. When an opportunity for such an education arose, he entered the nascent Saint Petersburg Conservatory, from which he graduated in 1865. The formal Western-oriented teaching he received there set him apart from composers of the contemporary nationalist movement embodied by the Russian composers of The Five, with whom his professional relationship was mixed. Tchaikovsky's training set him on a path to reconcile what he had learned with the native musical practices to which he had been exposed from childhood. From this reconciliation he forged a personal but unmistakably Russian style—a task that did not prove easy. The principles that governed melody, harmony and other fundamentals of Russian music ran completely counter to those that governed Western European music; this seemed to defeat the potential for using Russian music in large-scale Western composition or for forming a composite style, and it caused personal antipathies that dented Tchaikovsky's self-confidence. Russian culture exhibited a split personality, with its native and adopted elements having drifted apart increasingly since the time of Peter the Great. This resulted in uncertainty among the intelligentsia about the country's national identity—an ambiguity..., what would be the answer ?
Answer:
The answer is Tchaikovsky. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky was the person who was honored in 1884 and awarded a lifetime pension by Emperor Alexander III.

Q:Extract the answer to the following question from the movie plot. If the question isn't answerable, please output "Can't answer". Question: Who does the family hope will return? Title: Testament Movie plot: The Wetherly familyâhusband Tom (William Devane), wife Carol (Jane Alexander), and children Brad (Ross Harris), Mary Liz (Roxana Zal), and Scottie (Lukas Haas) -- live in the fictional suburb of Hamelin, California, within a 90-minute drive of San Francisco, where Tom works. On a routine afternoon, Carol (a stay-at-home mom and volunteer for school functions such as directing the school play) listens to an answering-machine message from Tom saying he's on his way home for dinner. Scottie watches Sesame Street on TV as Brad adjusts the TV antenna on the roof, when the show is suddenly replaced by white noise; suddenly, a San Francisco news anchor appears onscreen, saying they have lost their New York signal and there were explosions of "nuclear devices there in New York, and up and down the East Coast." The anchorman is cut off by the Emergency Broadcast System tone with the Civil Defense Insignia being shown on the Screen, then an announcer's voice states that the White House is interrupting the program: "Please stand by for the President and do not use the telephone." At the introduction of the President of the United States (who is never seen; only the Presidential Seal is shown on the TV), the phone rings but it goes dead along with the TV and electricity just as Carol answers it. Suddenly, the blinding flash of a nuclear detonation is then seen through the window. The family huddles on the floor in panic as the town's air-raid sirens go off; minutes later, several of their neighbors are running around on the street outside, dazed in fear and confusion. The family hopes Tom will return, but the circumstances are hard to ignore. The suburb of Hamelin survives relatively unscathed, because apparently the town is far enough from San Francisco to avoid blast damage. Frightened residents meet at the home of Henry Abhart (Leon Ames), an elderly ham radio operator. He has made contact with survivors in rural areas and internationally, and tells Carol that he was unable to reach anyone east of Keokuk, Iowa; a...

What is the solution?
Solve -14*c + 5 = 5 for c.
Alright, let's solve the equation step by step like we're talking to a 5-year-old.
We have the equation: -14*c + 5 = 5
Our job is to find the value of "c" that makes this equation true. So, let's first move the "+ 5" from the left side to the right side.
To do that, we need to subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
(-14*c + 5) - 5 = 5 - 5
Now, it becomes:
-14*c = 0
Now, we need to find the value for c. So think about what number times -14 equals 0. If you remember multiplication, any number multiplied by 0 is 0.
Therefore, the answer is:
c = 0

Hoping to add to a three-game winning streak, the Broncos traveled to Charlotte, North Carolina for an interconference match-up with the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium. In the first quarter, the Panthers struck first, with quarterback Cam Newton connecting on a 4-yard touchdown pass to tight end Greg Olsen. However, the Broncos would reel off 29 unanswered points and dominate the remainder of the game. Quarterback Peyton Manning threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Brandon Stokley. The Broncos grabbed the lead in the second quarter, with return specialist Trindon Holliday returning a punt 76 yards for a touchdown, followed by a 53-yard field goal by placekicker Matt Prater, then in the third quarter, cornerback Tony Carter returned an interception off Newton 40 yards for a touchdown. Prater added a 27-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, followed by safety Mike Adams sacking Newton in the end zone for a safety. The Panthers responded in the fourth quarter, with a 5-yard touchdown pass from Newton to Olsen, but the Broncos put the game out of reach, with running back Ronnie Hillman rushing for a 5-yard touchdown. The Broncos' defense harassed Cam Newton throughout the game, sacking Newton seven times. This was Broncos' head coach John Fox's first visit to Carolina, where he served as head coach of the Panthers from 2002-2010.

Title: Navigating the World of Beans - How to Prepare and Enjoy These Nutritious Legumes
Introduction
Beans, a diverse group of legumes, have been cultivated and consumed around the world for thousands of years. They come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, each with their unique nutritional profile. Beans are a great source of protein, fiber, and essential micronutrients, making them an ideal staple in numerous culinary dishes. They can be bought dried, canned, or flavored and offer a versatile range of tastes and textures. This article offers valuable tips on how to properly prepare and enjoy beans, specifically highlighting the differences between plain and flavored beans, as well as providing suggestions on how to incorporate them into a variety of dishes.
Plain Versus Flavored Beans: What to Look out for
It is essential to know whether the beans you are using are plain or flavored, as this will impact the way you prepare and cook them. Plain beans refer to beans that are not seasoned and come either dried or canned. Flavored beans, on the other hand, are typically canned and have added ingredients such as sauces, spices, or seasonings. These additives can greatly influence the taste and texture of your dish, so understanding the difference is crucial.
Rinsing Plain Beans: A Key Step in Preparation
For plain beans, it is essential to rinse them properly before cooking. If you are using canned beans, rinsing them will help remove any excess sodium content, which can be detrimental to your health if consumed in large amounts. Moreover, rinsing canned beans will also get rid of any potential metallic taste they might have. In the case of dried beans, rinsing them is necessary to eliminate potential contaminants like dirt and small stones, as well as to remove any loose skins on the beans.
Heating the Beans: Saucepan or Microwave
Once you've rinsed your plain beans, you can warm them up using either a saucepan or a microwave. If you prefer using a saucepan, simply pour the beans into it, add a small amount of water, and cook over low heat, bringing the water to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the beans from sticking to the bottom of the pan, and cook them until they are warmed through. If you choose to microwave the beans, place them in a microwave-safe bowl and cover them with a microwave-safe plate or lid. Cook the beans on high for 1-2 minutes, ensuring that you stop and stir them halfway through to promote even heating.
Incorporating Plain Beans into Other Recipes
Plain beans can be an extraordinary addition to a wide variety of dishes, providing a nutritional boost as well as enhancing the meal’s flavor profile. Here are a few examples of how you can incorporate plain beans into your cooking:
1. Soups and Stews: Beans blend seamlessly into soups and stews, adding richness and body to the dish. They can be an excellent complement to vegetable, chicken, or meat-based recipes.
2. Salads: Beans are a popular ingredient in salads, as they provide a refreshing contrast in texture. Combine them with leafy greens, fresh vegetables, and your choice of protein, then toss everything with your favorite salad dressing.
3. Tacos, Burritos, and Enchiladas: Beans are a staple in Mexican cuisine and can be used as a filling for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or quesadillas. They pair well with a variety of proteins, including chicken, beef, or pork.
4. Bean Burgers: For those looking to go meatless, beans can be mashed and combined with breadcrumbs, eggs, and your choice of spices to form delicious, protein-packed veggie burgers.
5. Pasta Dishes: Beans can be incorporated into pasta dishes to add an extra layer of flavor and texture. Try tossing them with pasta, tomato sauce, vegetables, and your choice of protein.
Conclusion
Making the most out of beans starts with understanding whether they are plain or flavored, and preparing them accordingly. By rinsing, heating, and incorporating them into various dishes, you can enhance the nutritional value and taste of your meals. With their versatility, affordability, and health benefits, it is no wonder beans have stood the test of time in kitchens around the world.

Cerberus just stared at me. The dog didn't blink, he didn't pant, he didn't move. He just sat in the passenger seat as I drove, relaxed, mouth hanging slightly open, looking at me the way someone examines a menu but can't decide on the chicken or the veal. The desert sky was on fire when the city came into view. Cerberus turned away from me and stuck his head out from the side of the jeep, his giant tongue flapping in the eighty mile an hour wind while I dialed Luna's number. The dog pulled his head back in, then rested his chin on top of the overhead roll-bar, his fur blowing back along his head like the spines of a porcupine. "Hello?" "Hey, Luna." "Dingo! Are you there yet?" "No, not yet. I'm just outside the city." Vegas flashed and blinked under the starless sky. "You get in touch with Mr. Waciejowski?" "Sure did. He's at the Denny's near the Excalibur. He's trying to stay away from the blackjack tables." "Yeah, good for him. He has the box?" I could hear Luna stuffing something disgustingly healthy in her mouth. "Mmm hmm." "He hasn't opened it, has he?" She swallowed. "Nah. I told him it was filled with old photos." Cerberus shifted in the seat and scratched behind his neck with such force that the whole Jeep shook; a rather unsettling motion at 80 miles an hour. "Hey Luna, I've got a question for you." I looked over to see the dog's nostrils flared out in the wind while his lips blew back and revealed his frightening set of teeth. "This, uh, this animal spirit guide you had me try to find. Do they ever show up, you know, in person?" While Dingo is driving Pick the correct answer from the following options: - Luna was in the car - Mr. Waciejowski was at Denny's restaurant - Cerberus was home - not enough information

Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer: Article: The Cuban iguana is a species of lizard of the iguana family. It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas, one of the most endangered groups of lizards. This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean. The Cuban iguana is mainly _ : 95% of its diet consists of the leaves, flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species, including the seaside rock bush and various grasses. However, Cuban iguanas occasionally eat animal matter, and individuals have been watched eating the dead flesh of birds, fish and crabs. The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident. The Cuban iguana is living throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population growing rapidly on Isla Magueyes, Puerto Rico. It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, where a separate subspecies occurs. Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles. To avoid the attack from them, the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cacti . In general the species is decreasing, more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands. One of the reasons for their decrease is habitat destruction caused by the over consuming of farm animals, housing development, and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests. Although the wild population is decreasing, the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding and other protection programs. Options: A To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana. B To show he is concerned about the Cuban iguana. C To explain reasons for the Cuban iguana's decrease. D To draw people's attention to an endangered animal Answer: A To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana. Question:

Information: - Edward Teach or Edward Thatch ( 22 November 1718), better known as Blackbeard, was a notorious English pirate who operated around the West Indies and the eastern coast of Britain's North American colonies. Although little is known about his early life, he was probably born in Bristol, England. Recent genealogical research indicates his family moved to Jamaica where Edward Thatch, Jr. is listed as being a mariner in the Royal Navy aboard HMS "Windsor" in 1706. He may have been a sailor on privateer ships during Queen Anne's War before settling on the Bahamian island of New Providence, a base for Captain Benjamin Hornigold, whose crew Teach joined sometime around 1716. Hornigold placed him in command of a sloop he had captured, and the two engaged in numerous acts of piracy. Their numbers were boosted by the addition to their fleet of two more ships, one of which was commanded by Stede Bonnet, but toward the end of 1717 Hornigold retired from piracy, taking two vessels with him. - A television network is a telecommunications network for distribution of television program content, whereby a central operation provides programming to many television stations or pay television providers. Until the mid-1980s, television programming in most countries of the world was dominated by a small number of broadcast networks. Many early television networks (such as the BBC, NBC or CBC) evolved from earlier radio networks. - Bryce H. Zabel (born May 17, 1954) is an American television producer, director, writer, and occasional actor. He has received the "created by" or "developed by" credit of five network and syndicated television series. - Bristol is a city, unitary authority area and county in South West England with an estimated population of 449,300 in 2016. It is England's sixth and the United Kingdom's eighth most populous city, and the most populous city in Southern England after London. The city borders the Unitary Authority areas of North Somerset and South Gloucestershire, with the historic cities of Bath and Gloucester to the south-east and north-east, respectively. - An episode is a coherent narrative unit within a larger dramatic work such as a film or television series. An episode is to a sequence as a chapter is to a book. Most are from 20 to 40 minutes in length. - The stern is the back or aft-most part of a ship or boat, technically defined as the area built up over the sternpost, extending upwards from the counter rail to the taffrail. The stern lies opposite of the bow, the foremost part of a ship. Originally, the term only referred to the aft port section of the ship, but eventually came to refer to the entire back of a vessel. The stern end of a ship is indicated with a white navigation light at night. - New Providence is the most populous island in the Bahamas, containing more than 70% of the total population. It houses the national capital city of Nassau. The island was originally under Spanish control following Christopher Columbus's discovery of the New World, but the Spanish government showed little interest in developing the island (and the Bahamas as a whole). Nassau, the island's largest city, was formerly known as Charles-town, but it was burned to the ground by the Spanish in 1684. It was laid out and renamed Nassau in 1695 by Nicholas Trott, the most successful Lord Proprietor, in honor of the Prince of Orange-Nassau who became William III of England. The three branches of Bahamian Government: the executive, the legislative, and the judiciary, are all headquartered on New Providence. New Providence functions as the main commercial hub of the Bahamas. It is also home to more than 400 banks and trust companies, and its hotels and port account for more than two thirds of the four million-plus tourists who visit the Bahamas annually. Other settlements on New Providence include Grants Town, Bain Town, Fox Hill, Adelaide, Yamacraw, South Beach, Coral Harbour, Lyford Cay, Paradise Island, Sea Breeze, Centreville, The Grove (South) and The Grove (West Bay), Cable Beach, Delaporte, Gambier, and Love Beach. - The Royal Navy (RN) is the United Kingdom's naval warfare force. Although warships were used by the English kings from the early medieval period, the first major maritime engagements were fought in the Hundred Years War against the kingdom of France. The modern Royal Navy traces its origins to the early 16th century; the oldest of the UK's armed services, it is known as the Senior Service. - A miniseries (or mini-series, also known as a serial in the UK) is a television program that tells a story in a predetermined, limited number of episodes. - A television program is a segment of content intended for broadcast on over-the-air, cable television, or Internet television, other than a commercial, trailer, or any other segment of content not serving as attraction for viewership. It may be a single production, or more commonly, a series of related productions (also called a television series or a television show). - Southeast Asia or Southeastern Asia is a subregion of Asia, consisting of the countries that are geographically south of China, east of India, west of New Guinea and north of Australia. The region lies near the intersection of geological plates, with heavy seismic and volcanic activity. Southeast Asia consists of two geographic regions: - Thailand (or ), officially the Kingdom of Thailand, formerly known as Siam, is a country at the centre of the Indochinese peninsula in Southeast Asia. With a total area of approximately , Thailand is the world's 51st-largest country. It is the 20th-most-populous country in the world, with around 66 million people. The capital and largest city is Bangkok. - Bangkok is the capital and most populous city of Thailand. It is known in Thai as "Krung Thep Maha Nakhon" (pronounced ) or simply . The city occupies in the Chao Phraya River delta in Central Thailand, and has a population of over 8 million, or 12.6 percent of the country's population. Over 14 million people (22.2 percent) live within the surrounding Bangkok Metropolitan Region, making Bangkok an extreme primate city, significantly dwarfing Thailand's other urban centres in terms of importance. There are 581 high-rise buildings in the city, ranking number 5 in the world. - Queen Anne's War (17021713), as the North American theater of the War of the Spanish Succession was known in the British colonies, was the second in a series of French and Indian Wars fought between France and England, later Great Britain, in North America for control of the continent. The War of the Spanish Succession was primarily fought in Europe. In addition to the two main combatants, the war also involved numerous Native American tribes allied with each nation, and Spain, which was allied with France. It was also known as the Third Indian War or in French as the Second Intercontinental War. - The West Indies or Caribbean Basin is a region of the North Atlantic Ocean in the Caribbean, that includes the island nations and surrounding waters of three major archipelagoes: the Greater Antilles, the Lesser Antilles and the Lucayan Archipelago. The term is synonymous with the term "Caribbean Basin". The region is known as the area running from Florida westward along the Gulf coast, then south along the Mexican coast through Central America and then eastward across the northern coast of South America. Bermuda is also included within the region even though it is in the west-central Atlantic, due to its common cultural history created by European colonization of the region, and in most of the region by the presence of a significant group of African descent. - Hallmark Cards, Incorporated is a privately owned American company based in Kansas City, Missouri. Founded in 1910 by Joyce Hall, Hallmark is the largest manufacturer of greeting cards in the United States. In 1985, the company was awarded the National Medal of Arts. - A privateer was a private person or ship that engaged in maritime warfare under a commission of war. The commission, also known as a letter of marque, empowered the person to carry on all forms of hostility permissible at sea by the usages of war, including attacking foreign vessels during wartime and taking them as prizes. Captured ships were subject to condemnation and sale under prize law, with the proceeds divided between the privateer sponsors, shipowners, captains and crew. A percentage share usually went to the issuer of the commission. Since robbery under arms was common to seaborne trade, all merchant ships were already armed. During war, naval resources were auxiliary to operations on land so privateering was a way of subsidizing state power by mobilizing armed ships and sailors. - The Hallmark Channel is an American cable and satellite television network that is owned by Crown Media Holdings, which is majority owned by Hallmark Cards. The channel's programming is primarily targeted at families, and features a mix of television movies and miniseries, original and acquired television series, and lifestyle programs. - Stede Bonnet (1688 10 December 1718) was an early eighteenth-century Barbadian pirate, sometimes called "The Gentleman Pirate" because he was a moderately wealthy landowner before turning to a life of crime. Bonnet was born into a wealthy English family on the island of Barbados, and inherited the family estate after his father's death in 1694. In 1709, he married Mary Allamby, and engaged in some level of militia service. Because of marital problems, and despite his lack of sailing experience, Bonnet decided he should to turn to piracy in the summer of 1717. He bought a sailing vessel, named it "Revenge", and travelled with his paid crew along the Eastern Seaboard of what is now the United States, capturing other vessels and burning other Barbadian ships. - Blackbeard is a 2006 adventure - drama miniseries based on the pirate Blackbeard , directed by Kevin Connor from a screenplay written by Bryce Zabel . It premiered on Hallmark Channel on June 17 , 2006 . The miniseries was shot on location in Thailand and the town of New Providence was built on a coconut plantation , and includes many factual names and places , but is essentially a fictional story . - Jamaica is an island country situated in the Caribbean Sea, consisting of the third-largest island of the Greater Antilles. The island, in area, lies about south of Cuba, and west of Hispaniola (the island containing the nation-states of Haiti and the Dominican Republic). Jamaica is the fourth-largest island country in the Caribbean, by area. - Captain Benjamin Hornigold (c. 16801719) was an 18th-century English pirate who operated during the tail end of the Golden Age of Piracy. His career lasted from 1715 until 1718, after which he became a pirate hunter and pursued his former allies on behalf of the Governor of the Bahamas. He was killed when his ship was wrecked on a reef during the hurricane season of 1719. - Crown Media Holdings, Inc. (also known as Crown Media) is a United States media production company with corporate headquarters located in Studio City, California, and is controlled by Hallmark Cards. What is the relationship between 'blackbeard ' and 'piracy'?
The answer to this question is:
Blackbeard, whose real name was Edward Teach or Edward Thatch, was a notorious English pirate who operated around the West Indies and the eastern coast of Britain's North American colonies. His association with piracy began when he joined Captain Benjamin Hornigold's crew around 1716. Hornigold placed him in command of a captured sloop, and together they engaged in numerous acts of piracy. Blackbeard rose to prominence and became a figure of terror in the early 18th century, with his pirate career lasting from 1716 to 1718. His menacing persona, ruthless approach, and successful exploits made him synonymous with piracy during the Golden Age of Piracy. Thus, the relationship between Blackbeard and piracy is that he was one of the most infamous and feared pirates in history.

The United States Army (USA) is the largest branch of the United States Armed Forces and performs land-based military operations. It is one of the seven uniformed services of the United States and is designated as the Army of the United States in the United States Constitution, Article 2, Section 2, Clause 1 and United States Code, Title 10, Subtitle B, Chapter 301, Section 3001. As the largest and senior branch of the U.S. military, the modern U.S. Army has its roots in the Continental Army, which was formed (14 June 1775) to fight the American Revolutionary War (1775–83)—before the U.S. was established as a country. After the Revolutionary War, the Congress of the Confederation created the United States Army on 3 June 1784, to replace the disbanded Continental Army. The United States Army considers itself descended from the Continental Army, and dates its institutional inception from the origin of that armed force in 1775.
What years did the French Revolutionary War span?
Oh, it seems like there's a little mix-up in the question. The article talks about the "American Revolutionary War," not the "French Revolutionary War." The American Revolutionary War took place between 1775 and 1783. The French Revolutionary War, however, is not mentioned in this article.

Please answer the following question: Given the below context: In June 2009, Ray Davies told The Independent that while a full-fledged reunion was unlikely, "I will continue to play with ex-band members like Mick Avory from time to time. With Dave, a lot of it is psychological. I'll guide him in, and coerce and nurture him, and when the time is right I suppose I'll even shout at him again." When asked about a possible reunion in an interview that year, Avory stated, "A reunion would not be possible with the originals, for a start due to ill health. But it would be possible with the Kast Off Kinks plus Ray. In any event Ray would record new material. We have some old tracks from the 80s as well." In March 2010, Avory reported that the band were planning on releasing an album of unreleased and new material. He stated that they had "eight tracks" ready for the album, but that the Davies brothers had to settle their differences before the project could progress.Quaife, who had been receiving kidney dialysis for more than ten years, died on 23 June 2010, aged 66. Two days after the bassist's death, Dave Davies posted a statement on his message board expressing deep sorrow over the passing of his former band mate and stating that Quaife "was never really given the credit he deserved for his contribution and involvement [sic] [with The Kinks]". Ray Davies dedicated his performance of 27 June at the Glastonbury Festival to Quaife and performed several Quaife-era Kinks songs in tribute to him. Davies told the crowd, "I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for him."In separate interviews early in 2011 both Davies brothers spoke positively about a potential reunion. Dave Davies explained, "There's nothing in the pipeline yet, but ... we'll see. It's possible." Each has said that any reunion would be dependent on the other. According to Ray Davies, the brothers were to meet in April to discuss future plans. In October that year, Dave Davies quashed rumours of a reunion, stating in an interview that although he loves his brother, "I just can't stand to be with him. About an hour with... Guess a valid title for it!

Please answer the following question: U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to impose tariffs of 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum has met criticism from his Republican allies in Congress, many of whom worry the measures could trigger a trade war that damages U.S. businesses. But the president does have supporters among some Senate Democrats from states where voters are concerned about the long-term loss of American manufacturing jobs. “This welcome action is long overdue for shuttered steel plants across Ohio and steelworkers who live in fear that their jobs will be the next victims of Chinese cheating,” Senator Sherrod Brown, a Democrat from Ohio, said in a statement released after the plan was announced. “If we fail to stand up for steel jobs today, China will come after other jobs up and down the supply chain tomorrow.” American labor unions have also broadly favored Trump’s proposed tariffs, saying they have been complaining for years that foreign countries frequently subsidize their own steel industries, putting American competitors at a disadvantage. Economists have been mostly critical of the plan, saying that overall it will hurt American manufacturers, some of whom may be targeted by trading partners for retaliatory sanction. They argue that the benefits to steel and aluminum workers are outweighed by job losses among Americans in other industries. A test of how much the issue is resonating with American voters comes next week, when voters in Pennsylvania’s 18th congressional district, vote in a special election to fill a vacated seat. Many voters are looking to the president to fulfill his campaign promise of protecting manufacturing jobs in America’s heartland. The race for the seat left vacant by Rep. Tim Murphy’s sex scandal is coming down to the wire between Republican candidate Rick Saccone and Democrat Conor Lamb. Saccone’s campaign endorsed Trump’s tariff plan in a statement, saying “If other countries aren’t playing by the rules and tariffs are needed to protect steel and aluminum jobs in Southwestern Pennsylvania,... According to the above context, choose the correct option to answer the following question. Question: What is most likely true about Pres. Trump? Options: A. not enough information B. He likes American labor unions C. He likes American workers D. He likes American businesses
Answer:
C. He likes American workers

Yahoo Keeps Mobile Focus On Content, Services
Yahoo has long shied away from creating its own cellphones and mobile operating system, even as rivals like Google and Microsoft dove in. Last week, at least, that decision looked wise. On June 30 Microsoft revealed it would stop producing its line of "Kin" cellphones, launched with much fanfare just a few weeks ago. On July 1, Google Chief Executive Eric Schmidt said the search giant would not release any more Google-designed Nexus phones, and T-Mobile USA said it would halt distribution of its once-popular Sidekick phones. Analysts attributed all these decisions to disappointing sales in the face of fierce competition.
David Ko, a Yahoo ( YHOO - news - people ) senior vice president who oversees its audience, mobile and local businesses for North and Latin America, says the company continues to believe advertising campaigns, applications and partnerships are the best way to increase its mobile business. Rather than compete with companies like Nokia ( NOK - news - people ) and Samsung, Yahoo collaborates with them, in part to gain access to their hundreds of millions of users. Even Google ( GOOG - news - people ) could be considered a mobile partner with the recent release of several Yahoo applications for Google Android phones.
Forbestalked to Ko about his strategy, Yahoo Chief Executive Carol Bartz's take on the wireless industry and why Yahoo has no plans to buy a mobile ad network.
Forbes: You oversee Yahoo's mobile business as well as its audience properties. How are you tying mobile and media together?
Ko: We had treated mobile as a vertical [business] across the company for a very long time, but it needs to be a true horizontal. It shouldn't be one group thinking about how to mobilize the company, but everyone. Users are no longer logging onto their PCs or laptops for content; they're getting it on netbooks, iPads and cellphones. We have Yahoo Finance and Fantasy Sports on the iPhone and BlackBerry. We're taking our core media properties and pushing them out across these platforms.
On July 1 Yahoo released a slew of mobile applications, including Mail and Messenger applications for Google Android phones. What's the strategy there?
We want to make it really easy for users to access our services wherever, whenever, however. We've been focused primarily on iPhone and BlackBerry, but people are searching for Yahoo on Android. I recognize we may be a little late to Android, but we wanted to have something with increased functionality, not just a "me too" app that we had on other partners one to two years ago. The Android apps let you view and download attachments, get push e-mail and toggle between Mail and Messenger, among other things. Mail and Messenger are core parts of our communications suite that can link out to other areas, and are where the bulk of our users are today. As we start to integrate more of our content, you will see more apps pop up.
Now that Yahoo is on Android, what other mobile platforms are you thinking of adding?
We've partnered with a number of carriers and manufacturers, and most manufacturers are tied to specific platforms. In May we signed a worldwide agreement with Nokia to be the exclusive provider of Ovi Mail and Chat services on its phones. Before that we made an announcement with Samsung to distribute our communications services and content across phones that run [Samsung's own operating system] Bada and Android. The Bada stuff is still to come, and a lot of the Nokia integration too.
What is a short summary of the above article?
Yahoo focuses on providing content and services for mobile phones, instead of making their own phones or operating systems. They work with other phone companies so more people can use their apps and services. This way, they can reach more users and grow. They recently made new apps for Google Android phones to make it easier for people to use Yahoo services on different devices.

You are an AI assistant, who knows every language and how to translate one language to another. Given a task, you explain in simple steps what the task is asking, any guidelines that it provides. You solve the task and show how you used the guidelines to solve the task.
Given the task definition and input, reply with output. Given a math problem with context and a question and 5 answer choices, the task is to provide the correct answer choice based on the problem. You must choose one of the given answer choices by letter: a, b, c, d, or e; anything else is invalid.
Problem: the price of an item is discounted 5 percent on day 1 of a sale. on day 2, the item is discounted another 10 percent, and on day 3, it is discounted an additional 15 percent. the price of the item on day 3 is what percentage of the sale price on day 1 ?
Options: a. 28 %, b. 40 %, c. 64.8 %, d. 76.5 %, e. 78 %
Step 1: Understand the task.
The task is asking to find the percentage of the price of an item on day 3 relative to its sale price on day 1.
Step 2: Understand the guidelines.
Guidelines state that there are sequential discounts applied to the price of the item on day 1, day 2, and day 3. We need to calculate the price of the item on day 3 and express it as a percentage of the sale price on day 1. We should choose the correct answer among the given options (a, b, c, d, or e).
Step 3: Solve the task using the given guidelines.
Let the original price on day 1 be P.
On day 1, the price is discounted by 5%, so the sale price on day 1 is 0.95*P.
On day 2, the price is discounted by another 10%, so the sale price on day 2 is 0.9*(0.95*P).
On day 3, the price is discounted by another 15%, so the sale price on day 3 is 0.85*(0.9*0.95*P).
To find the percentage of the item's price on day 3 relative to its sale price on day 1, we need to divide the sale price on day 3 by the sale price on day 1 and multiply by 100:
(0.85*(0.9*0.95*P)) / (0.95*P) * 100
The "P" on both numerator and denominator will cancel out, which leaves us with:
0.85 * 0.9 * 100 = 76.5
Step 4: Choose the correct answer from the given options.
The correct answer choice is 76.5 %, which corresponds to option d.
Answer: d. 76.5 %

Another Food Trend Story: Pizza's Inexorable Rise
We used a database of the frequency with which a term has appeared in the pages of The New York Times to measure how food trends have propagated across the country. But we omitted the food trend of the century in the process.
Pizza is now ubiquitous, considered the consummate American food despite its Italian origins. But it wasn’t always so. It did not start receiving regular mentions in The Times until the 1950s. In that era, it was a newfangled ethnic food just starting to make inroads into the American palate.
For a sense of pizza’s epic rise toward the center of the American diet, take a look at the food battle of the century, between pizza and hamburgers, as reflected in Times coverage.
There were scattered references to hamburgers in The Times going back to the 1850s, and by the start of the 20th century they were mentioned at least a couple of dozen times a year before reaching a prewar peak of 206 stories mentioning the hamburger in 1939.
But starting in the 1950s, pizza’s campaign to become the 20th century casual food of choice was underway. It first surpassed hamburger in Times coverage in 1976. The two bounced around in close competition for the remainder of the 1970s, but in 1982 they diverged, and pizza never looked back.
By the time pizza references peaked, in 2011, the word was contained in 1,183 Times articles, nearly six times the 214 articles containing the word hamburger. (Adding cheeseburger to the mix doesn’t radically change the results; the word adds only 68 articles to hamburger’s 2011 total).
If you are curious about a third competitor for the throne of Top American Casual Food, prepare to be disappointed. Hot dog has almost never been top dog. There were two brief exceptions in 1925 and 1928, when the term surpassed hamburger. But otherwise, the 20th century was an era of hamburger dominance until pizza came along.
There was one bright spot for team hot dog back in 2009. The term surpassed hamburger in Times appearances for the first time since 1928. By that point, of course, both were far outranked by pizza references.
Actually, both hamburgers and hot dogs have a new competitor for second place. Tacos had long lagged both in Times references, but since 2011 has narrowly edged hamburgers and hot dogs for the No. 2 spot among casual foods in Times references. (There were also a surprisingly high number of “taco” mentions in the 19th century, but these appear to be more an artifact of the challenges of digitizing very old text than an early outbreak of coverage of Mexican street food. Kevin Drum raised this strange matter of the apparent 19th-century taco boom here.)
There is a broader point to be made about America as a cultural melting pot. After all, hamburgers and hot dogs are both Americanized versions of German dishes, and they have now been supplanted by foods with origins in Italy and Mexico. But rather than consider these themes further, we are now getting hungry and have a few ideas for solving that problem.
What was this article about?
This article is about how pizza became very popular in America, even though it came from Italy. It talks about how people started eating pizza more and more, and newspapers like The New York Times started writing about it more often. It also compares the popularity of pizza to other favorite foods like hamburgers, hot dogs, and tacos. The article shows how different types of foods from different countries can become a big part of American culture.

Please answer the following question: The answer to the question: How did the man checking on the telephone line die? is inside the article: Wildlife photographer Pickett Smith is taking photographs of the local flora and fauna as he canoes through a swamp surrounding an island containing the affluent mansion estate of the wealthy and influential Crockett family. Also evident throughout the swamp are numerous indicators of pollution, which Pickett believes are connected to pesticide use on the island plantation. After Clint Crockett accidentally tips over Smith's canoe, he and his sister Karen escort Smith to the family mansion where he meets the entire Crockett family. The grouchy, wheelchair-bound patriarch Jason intends on spending the next day enjoying both the 4th of July and his own birthday celebrations uninterrupted. Due to the mutual dislike of the fauna around the mansion, Jason sends a man named Grover to spray pesticide in order to get rid of the frogs. Pickett later discovers Grover's corpse covered in snakebites in the swamp not far from the house. Despite this warning, Jason continues with his celebrations the next day. Early next morning, Michael Martindale sets out to check on a possible downed telephone line. He accidentally shoots himself in the leg and is rendered immobile by strange white moss hanging down from the surrounding trees. Tarantulas descend from the branches and kill him. Back on the estate, Jason's sister, Iris Martindale sends her son, Kenneth into the greenhouse to collect flowers for a centerpiece. As he gathers the flowers, he fails to notice dozens of tokay geckos entering behind him. The geckos swarm over the stacked shelves, knocking over numerous jars of poisonous chemicals, and the resulting toxic gas asphyxiates him. Seeing the danger posed by the animals, Pickett suggests that everyone should leave the island, but Jason is adamant that nothing will ruin his birthday., can you guess it ?

Information: - Compact disc (CD) is a digital optical disc data storage format released in 1982 and co-developed by Philips and Sony. The format was originally developed to store and play only sound recordings but was later adapted for storage of data (CD-ROM). Several other formats were further derived from these, including write-once audio and data storage (CD-R), rewritable media (CD-RW), Video Compact Disc (VCD), Super Video Compact Disc (SVCD), Photo CD, PictureCD, CD-i, and Enhanced Music CD. Audio CD players have been commercially available since October 1982, when the first commercially available CD player was released in Japan. - Toshiba was founded in 1938 as Tokyo Shibaura Electric K.K. through the merger of Shibaura Seisaku-sho (founded in 1875) and Tokyo Denki (founded in 1890). The company name was officially changed to Toshiba Corporation in 1978. Toshiba made a large number of corporate acquisitions during its history, including of Semp in 1977, of Westinghouse Electric LLC, a nuclear energy company in 2006, of Landis+Gyr in 2011, and of IBM's point-of-sale business in 2012. - Hidden Stash III is the second b - sides and rarities collection from the Kottonmouth Kings , released on November 21 , 2006 , and is a 3 disc CD - DVD combo .

Rooted in 1960s garage rock and other forms of what is now known as "proto-punk" music, punk rock bands rejected perceived excesses of mainstream 1970s rock. Punk bands typically use short or fast-paced songs, with hard-edged melodies and singing styles, stripped-down instrumentation, and often political, anti-establishment lyrics. Punk embraces a DIY ethic; many bands self-produce recordings and distribute them through informal channels. - Dustin Miller (born May 2, 1977), best known by his stage name D-Loc, is an MC in the rap rock group Kottonmouth Kings and rap group Kingspade.

The encoding material sits atop a thicker substrate (usually polycarbonate) which makes up the bulk of the disc and forms a dust defocusing layer. The encoding pattern follows a continuous, spiral path covering the entire disc surface and extending from the innermost track to the outermost track. The data is stored on the disc with a laser or stamping machine, and can be accessed when the data path is illuminated with a laser diode in an optical disc drive which spins the disc at speeds of about 200 to 4,000 RPM or more, depending on the drive type, disc format, and the distance of the read head from the center of the disc (inner tracks are read at a higher disc speed). Most optical discs exhibit a characteristic iridescence as a result of the diffraction grating formed by its grooves. This side of the disc contains the actual data and is typically coated with a transparent material, usually lacquer. The reverse side of an optical disc usually has a printed label, sometimes made of paper but often printed or stamped onto the disc itself. Unlike the 3-inch floppy disk, most optical discs do not have an integrated protective casing and are therefore susceptible to data transfer problems due to scratches, fingerprints, and other environmental problems. - , formerly known as , is a Japanese multinational electronics corporation headquartered in Kadoma, Osaka, Japan. - Sony Corporation is the electronics business unit and the parent company of the Sony Group, which is engaged in business through its four operating components electronics (video games, network services and medical business), motion pictures, music and financial services.

Please answer the following question: Article: The World Bank is warning that the West Africa Ebola outbreak could seriously harm the economies of Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone unless action is taken quickly. World Bank President Jim Yong Kim spoke to reporters recently to discuss the effects of the Ebola spread. "Our findings show that if the virus continues to spread, the economic cost to these countries could grow eight times by 2015. This would be a big _ to their already weak economies," said Kim. Mr. Kim says, "saving lives and preventing new spread" is most important. The bank has given $117-million for an "immediate help." The World Bank President says the SARS outbreak between 2002 and 2004 showed how a disease could damage economies. 800 people died from SARS and the economic losses were up to $40-billion. Mr. Kim says SARS and the H1N1 outbreak of 2009 taught that fear and avoidance resulted in about 90-percent of the economic losses. That means the disease is causing two levels of economic damage. "There are two kinds of contagion . One is connected with the virus itself and the second is connected with the spread of fear about the virus," said Kim. The World Bank thinks the losses to the economies of Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea will be big .Mr. Kim says losses could be about $97-million at the moment. Mr. Kim says fast action is necessary. He says getting the disease under control is still far away. That is because there are not enough health care workers in the affected areas. The World Bank President says the most important measure is to act quickly in order to limit economic losses. Question: If quick action is not taken to stop the spread of Ebola, the economic losses could reach about _ by 2015. Yes or no, is the answer "$800-million"?
A:
Yes, the answer is "$800-million." According to World Bank President Jim Yong Kim, if quick action is not taken to stop the spread of Ebola, the economic cost to Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone could grow eight times by 2015, reaching about $800 million. This would be a significant blow to their already weak economies. The World Bank has pledged $117 million for immediate help to address the crisis and underlines the importance of rapid response to limit economic losses and prevent further spread of the virus. Past outbreaks, such as the SARS outbreak between 2002 and 2004, as well as the H1N1 outbreak in 2009, have demonstrated that fear and avoidance can result in about 90% of the economic losses. Therefore, it is crucial to act quickly and efficiently to mitigate the effects of the Ebola outbreak on the countries' economies.

Which place is good to buy a 2 bhk apartment in Vizag with a budget of 30L?
Which place is good to buy a 2 bhk apartment in Hyderabad with the budget of 30L?
Are these two questions paraphrases of each other?
Okay kiddo, let me explain this to you. These two questions are similar but not the same. The first question is asking about a good place to buy a 2 bedroom apartment in a city called Vizag, with a budget of 30 lakhs. The second question is asking the same thing, but it's about a different city called Hyderabad. So, they are talking about the same kind of apartment and budget, but just in different cities. That's why they are not exact copies of each other.

Forecasters said Arthur had almost strengthened to a hurricane on Wednesday and could threaten parts of North Carolina in the coming days.
It is currently off the coast of Florida, with high winds and rain.
Hotel owners in affected areas have already reported cancellations.
Tropical Storm Arthur is forecast to grow into a Category 1 hurricane early on Thursday with wind speeds approaching 75 mph (121 km/h).
The National Weather Service has issued a hurricane warning for most of the North Carolina coast, with forecasters warning tourists to the Outer Banks islands to use caution.
Officials warned of storm surge flooding and heavy rainfall forecast along the barrier islands.
Tropical storm watches are also in effect for wider parts of the US east coast.
"We have received some cancellations," North Carolina motel general manager John Zeller told the Associated Press news agency.
"Basically we are telling people to kind of wait and see what happens. I think everybody is kind of watching the weather."
The area's tourism agency expects about 250,000 people to spend time in the Outer Banks over the long holiday weekend.
Governor Pat McCrory advised residents: " Don't put your stupid hat on." And he urged surfers and swimmers to avoid the water because of concerns over rip tides.
"Our major goal is to ensure that no lives are lost during this upcoming storm," he said.
Forecasters were optimistic the storm would not rain out the celebrated Fourth of July fireworks on Washington DC's National Mall.
The pyrotechnics show over the famed Reflecting Pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial is set to be broadcast live on television.
The US government's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts a slower than average hurricane season this year, with eight to 13 total named storms, three to six hurricanes, and one or two major hurricanes.
What is a summary of this text?
Tropical Storm Arthur is set to strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane with wind speeds approaching 75 mph on Thursday. It is currently off the coast of Florida and poses a threat to parts of North Carolina. Hotel owners have reported cancellations, and the National Weather Service has issued hurricane warnings for most of North Carolina's coast. Tropical storm watches have also been issued for wider parts of the US east coast. As many as 250,000 visitors are expected in the Outer Banks areas during the upcoming holiday weekend, prompting officials to warn them to exercise caution. Despite the storm, forecasters are optimistic that the Fourth of July fireworks in Washington DC will not be affected.

Q:Here's a question: What causes fear in skating? Here are possible answers to this question: - injuries - increased heart rate - might fall - can't stop - move fast I believe the correct choice is "might fall", here's why:
A:
Fear in skating is often caused by the perceived possibility of falling. Falling while skating has the potential to lead to injuries, such as sprains, fractures, or even head injuries. The fear of falling can also be exacerbated by a lack of confidence in one's ability to control their movements, including stopping or navigating obstacles. Skaters may also be apprehensive about moving fast, which can increase the likelihood of falling or make the consequences of a fall seem more severe. Therefore, the correct choice is "might fall," as this factor underlies many of the fears associated with skating.

Q:Fact 1: Oil is formed by layers of sediment pushing down on decomposing algae. Fact 2: Fossil fuels like coal and oil are ancient biomass fuel. Given the two facts above, answer the question "What is a product of layers of sediment pushing down on decomposing algae over time?" with the following options: - Fungus - Greenhouse gases - Fossil fuels - Calcium carbonate - salinity - Sand - contamination - Water
A:
A product of layers of sediment pushing down on decomposing algae over time is fossil fuels.
To elaborate on this, the process through which fossil fuels, particularly oil, are formed involves the accumulation and preservation of organic material, such as algae, within sedimentary rock layers over millions of years. The decomposition of this organic material under great pressure and heat transforms it into hydrocarbon-rich substances like crude oil and natural gas, both of which are important fossil fuels.
As stated in Fact 1, oil forms from decomposing algae subjected to the weight of sediment layers accumulated over time. This process occurs in anaerobic conditions, meaning that oxygen is not present or is present in very low amounts. Without oxygen, the decomposing algae undergoes chemical changes, producing organic-rich shale, kerogen, and eventually, oil and gas deposits through a process known as diagenesis and catagenesis.
Fact 2 affirms the link between ancient biomass material and the formation of fossil fuels like coal and oil. These fuels are essentially the remains of ancient forests and marine organisms that have been subjected to various geological processes over millions of years. The energy stored within the chemical bonds of these ancient organisms becomes a valuable resource when extracted and utilized for modern-day human needs, such as transportation, electricity generation, and heating.
So, when considering the two facts mentioned along with the given options, the most accurate answer to the question "What is a product of layers of sediment pushing down on decomposing algae over time?" is "Fossil fuels."

Read the following conversation and answer the question. M: We are glad to have Dr. Garfield to talk to us today about dreams. Let me start by asking the first question. Does everyone dream? W: It appears that everyone does. Mostly when people say that they never dream, what they really mean is that they don't remember their dreams or they don't think their dreams are important. The reason behind is that they might have been made fun of with a child when they first reported their dreams or it was so frightening that they just turned off dreaming completely. The other day, someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be a great dreamer, but suddenly he stopped having dreams. I asked him what it happened. It turned out that his brother died by heart attack and he never expected that such a terrible thing would happen to a young person. Generally, when there was some frightening event and dream about it was too terrible. People prefer not to dream about it. Actually the worst thing you can do is stop dreaming. Because it means that the bad experience would be too painful to even appear in dreams. As long as you dream about it and even the dream is frightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams. When a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad, if people turn off their dreams totally, it means they don't love themselves to even think about it. Question: What is Dr Garfield's opinion about dreaming? - It is very useful. - It makes things worse. - It prevents the mind from working.
The answer to this question is:
Dr. Garfield's opinion about dreaming is that it is very useful. She believes that dreams help us deal with our problems and that our minds work on resolving issues through dreaming. Patterns in dreams can reveal deep-seated emotions and issues, such as serious illness or sadness. Turning off dreams entirely can be detrimental, as it means the person is not allowing themselves to process and work through their problems. Dreaming, even if the dreams are frightening, shows that the mind is actively working on these issues.

The digestive system is the body system that digests food. It digest food in two ways, mechanically and chemically. Both help in the process of turning food into nutrients. The digestive system also eliminates solid food waste. The major organs of the digestive system include the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and small and large in- testines. These organs all work together to help you gain energy from the food you eat. Digestion starts in the mouth. When food is swallowed, it travels through the esophagus to the stomach. In the stomach, digestion continues and a small amount of absorption of nutrients takes place. Most chemical digestion and nearly all absorption of nutrients take place in the small intestine. This organ consists of three parts: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The large intestine is the last stop in the digestive system. This is where water is absorbed. The food not digested is released as waste.
Choose from options: Based on the paragraph, does the response "Food is digested mechanically and chemical through a process that includes the mouth, esophagus, small intestine and large intestine" correctly answer the question "How is food digested?"?
Choices:
a). no
b). yes
b). yes
The response "Food is digested mechanically and chemically through a process that includes the mouth, esophagus, small intestine, and large intestine" serves as a concise summary of the digestive process described in the paragraph. It includes both types of digestion - mechanical and chemical - and mentions the main organs involved in the process. Mechanically, food is broken down into smaller pieces through actions like chewing (in the mouth) and churning of the stomach. On the other hand, chemical digestion refers to the enzymatic process where food is broken down into its nutrient pieces that can be absorbed. This starts in the mouth (with enzymes in saliva), continues in the stomach (with gastric juices), and concludes in the small intestine.
The small intestine is indeed where the majority of chemical digestion and nutrient absorption takes place, after which any remaining undigested food matter passes to the large intestine where water is absorbed, conforming again to the response given. Thus, the response is correct. Furthermore, the esophagus is also correctly included as part of the digestive process, even though its role is largely about transportation of the bolus (chewed food) from the mouth to the stomach, rather than digestion or absorption.

Wilson was the only VC receiver during the Italian invasion of British - Somalia , only six additional VCs were awarded for operations in East Africa .
Wilson was the only VC recipient during the Italian invasion of British Somalia ; only six other VCs were awarded for operations in East Africa .
Select your answer from the options. Do these sentences mean the same thing?
OPT: 1). no. 2). yes.
2). yes.
The two sentences provided essentially convey the same information, with only minor differences in phrasing.
In both sentences, the primary focus is on Wilson being the sole recipient of the Victoria Cross (VC) during the Italian invasion of British Somalia. Additionally, both sentences mention that only six more VCs were awarded for operations in East Africa, further emphasizing the rarity of this distinction.
The first sentence uses the phrasing "Wilson was the only VC receiver," whereas the second sentence employs "Wilson was the only VC recipient". These two phrases mean the same thing, with "receiver" and "recipient" being synonymous in this context.
The use of phrasing "during the Italian invasion of British-Somalia" and "during the Italian invasion of British Somalia" is also equivalent, and the consistency in punctuation (a semicolon) connecting the two thoughts in each sentence maintains readability and clarity.
Additionally, the inclusion of "only" in "only six additional VCs" and "only six other VCs" strongly highlights the scarcity of the award in both cases.
In conclusion, option 2) is the correct answer, as these sentences carry the same underlying meaning.

Premise: "Now, if we assume that the volume of all sectors and uses in Tables 1, 2, and 3 have an elasticity of one with respect to the number of households (i.e." If this premise is true, what does that tell us about whether it entails the hypothesis "Tables 1, 2, and 3 have an elasticity of four."?
Okay kiddo, let's break this down into simple words! A "premise" is like a starting point or an idea that we believe to be true. In this case, it's about "elasticity" being one in Tables 1, 2, and 3. Elasticity is just a fancy word that tells us how much something changes when another thing changes. Imagine if you stretch a rubber band - if it's elastic, it will change its shape when you pull on it, right?
So, if we have an elasticity of one, it means that when the number of households changes, the volume in these tables also changes by the same amount. It's like saying if there are 2 more households, then there will be 2 more of something in those tables.
Now, the "hypothesis" is a guess or an idea we want to test. In our case, it's about Tables 1, 2, and 3 having an elasticity of four. That would mean, if there are 2 more households, then there would be 8 more of something in those tables because 2 times 4 is 8, right?
What we want to know is if believing the first idea (or premise) means that the second idea (or hypothesis) is true too. But in this case, the premise and hypothesis are talking about different elasticities, one and four. So, the premise cannot tell us whether the hypothesis is true or not. They are like two different stories that don't really connect to each other.

A group of Chilean miners who spent 69 days trapped underground have traveled to Britain as the guests of football team Manchester United. A collapse at the San Esteban mine in Chile on August 5 left 33 men stranded, but they were rescued amid jubilant scenes as the world's media watched in October. Twenty-three of those miners are visiting England, having been invited to cities around the world after becoming international celebrities. They took part in a training session with United manager Alex Ferguson at the club's Carrington headquarters on Monday ahead of watching that night's Premier League visit by title rivals Arsenal. "It's fantastic that they're coming," the 68-year-old told United's website. "These are people who showed real substance and perseverance to make sure they survived. There are examples in life which you should always take note of. "I mean, the life of a miner, having to work in the bowels of the earth and not being able to see anything. That's a great sacrifice to earn your living. I'm sure they'll enjoy themselves on their trip." Former United star Bobby Charlton also met the club's South American guests. "I can't believe these are the same people the whole world dropped everything for," Charlton said. "You took it in your stride and everyone around the world is very proud of you." Last month the miners were saluted with a standing ovation at the CNN Heroes event in Los Angeles, California. Heroes show opens with salute to Chilean miners. In October Manchester United invited them to visit, while Spanish football star David Villa sent two shirts from his club team Barcelona to the families of the men while they were still trapped to show his sympathy. Former Chile defender Elias Figueroa, who played in three World Cups and collected 47 caps for his country, accompanied the miners on their trip.

(CNN) -- Japan's prime minister conceded defeat in parliamentary elections Sunday, signaling the return to power of the Liberal Democratic Party and ending the brief rule of the disappointing upstart Democratic Party of Japan. Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda pledged to step down as party president after exit polls showed a smashing loss in lower house voting. The party, once seen as a breath of fresh air in Japanese politics, came to be regarded as increasingly ineffective. "We got a regrettable result," Noda said. "The result is everything in the politics. The biggest responsibility lies on me. I will quit as the partly leader of DPJ." The move clears the way for the return to power of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the current leader of the conservative-leaning Liberal Democratic Party, or LDP. "The Japanese people will be keenly looking whether the LDP can meet with their expectations," Abe said in interviews after the polling. The LDP ruled the country almost continuously since its establishment in 1955 until it was forced from power three years ago by the DPJ. Public broadcaster NHK said the LDP and its coalition partner, the new Komei party, gained at least 302 seats in the 480-seat lower house. CNN's main affiliate, TV Asahi, reports the LDP/Komei coalition gained at least 312 seats. The official count is expected to be released Monday. The LDP is inheriting a struggling economy, regional tensions and questions over Japan's role in Asia. "The economy is at the bottom. It's our first mission to turn it around," Abe said.
Question: "What is the discrepancy between TV Asahi and Public broadcaster NHK as to how many seats the LDP/Komei coalition has gained so far?"
Answer: "Komei coalition gained at least 312 seats and NHK says Komei party, gained at least 302 seats"
Is this answer correct?
Answer: The discrepancy between TV Asahi's report and Public broadcaster NHK's report is that TV Asahi states the LDP/Komei coalition gained at least 312 seats in the lower house, while NHK reports that the LDP and its coalition partner, the new Komei party, gained at least 302 seats in the 480-seat lower house.

It was heavy and constant -- every 5 - 10 minutes a large group of people came to the station from Venice -- and left the train station for Venice . A couple of the Vaporetto water taxis on the Venice Canal . For public transportation , they were quite expensive . For a 60 minute ticket , it is euro 6.50 ( $ 10.10 ) per person . With four separate rides -- that euro 52 ( $ 80 ) for our transportation there .
Question: What may be the type of bus you can use for transportation in Venice ?
In Venice, instead of buses, they have special boats called Vaporettos. These Vaporettos are like water buses that move through the canals of Venice. They help people travel around the city, just like buses do on land in other places. They can be a bit expensive, but they are a fun way to explore the beautiful city of Venice.

Plot:
In a small Midwestern town of Blissville, a shy and introverted 17-year-old girl named Amy Marshall struggles to fit in and find her passion. Growing up, she's heard the legend of Bliss - a fearless and iconic roller derby star named Babe Ruthless, who had put the town on the map decades ago. Feeling a deep connection to Bliss' story, Amy dreams of escaping her mundane life and following in her footsteps.
One day, while rummaging through her grandmother's attic, she finds a box containing old photos, newspaper clippings, and a worn-out roller derby T-shirt that once belonged to Babe Ruthless. Among these items, she discovers a long-lost diary written by Bliss herself. Excited, Amy studies the diary as a guide to embrace the spirit of Babe Ruthless and pursue her own path as a roller derby player.
With the help of her best friend, Marcy, they secretly form and train an underground roller derby team in an abandoned warehouse with a makeshift derby rink. They recruit other misfits and outsiders to join them, ultimately creating a tight-knit sisterhood that empowers each girl to face and overcome their fears and personal challenges.

Context: Met " Ham Sandwitch " in the lobby , got the car packed and went to this place called " The Corner Bakery " . It was really good . Our bellman told us about it . We ate there and headed to the garment district to buy fur .
Question What is likely true about the narrator ?
Possible answers:
Pick from: A. They are staying in a hotel. B. They are not staying in a hotel. C. They are a vegan. D. None of the above choices ..
The answer:
A. They are staying in a hotel.
The passage provides several clues that indicate the narrator is likely staying in a hotel. Firstly, they mention meeting "Ham Sandwich" in the lobby, which could be the hotel lobby. Secondly, they mention a bellman, who is usually employed by hotels to assist with guests' luggage and other needs. Finally, the fact that they packed the car suggests they might be staying somewhere temporarily, like a hotel. The other options do not have enough evidence in the passage to be considered likely true. While the narrator mentions eating at The Corner Bakery and buying fur in the garment district, neither of these items supports the idea that they are a vegan or that they are not staying in a hotel.

The Iberian Peninsula , also known as Iberia , is located in the southwest corner of Europe. The peninsula is principally divided between Portugal and Spain, comprising most of their territory. It also includes Andorra and a small part of France along the peninsula's northeastern edge, as well as Gibraltar on its south coast, a small peninsula that forms an overseas territory of the United Kingdom. With an area of approximately , it is the second largest European peninsula, after the Scandinavian.
The English word "Iberia" was adapted from the use of the Ancient Greek word Ἰβηρία by Greek geographers under the rule of the Roman Empire to refer to what is known today in English as the Iberian Peninsula. At that time, the name did not describe a single political entity or a distinct population of people. Strabo's 'Iberia' was delineated from Keltikē (Gaul) by the Pyrenees and included the entire land mass southwest (he says "west") of there.
The ancient Greeks reached the Iberian Peninsula, of which they had heard from the Phoenicians, by voyaging westward on the Mediterranean. Hecataeus of Miletus was the first known to use the term "Iberia", which he wrote about circa 500 BC. Herodotus of Halicarnassus says of the Phocaeans that "it was they who made the Greeks acquainted with... Iberia." According to Strabo, prior historians used "Iberia" to mean the country "this side of the Ἶβηρος" as far north as the river Rhône in France, but currently they set the Pyrenees as the limit. Polybius respects that limit, but identifies Iberia as the Mediterranean side as far south as Gibraltar, with the Atlantic side having no name. Elsewhere he says that Saguntum is "on the seaward foot of the range of hills connecting Iberia and Celtiberia."

4. Gibraltar is located on the southern coast of the Iberian Peninsula.
5. Five recognized political entities share the area of the Iberian Peninsula: Spain, Portugal, Andorra, France, and Gibraltar.
6. The primary countries on the Iberian Peninsula are Spain and Portugal.
7. No, the Iberian Peninsula is not the largest peninsula in Europe.
8. The Scandinavian Peninsula is larger than the Iberian Peninsula.
9. The term "Iberia" comes from the Ancient Greek language.
10. No, during the Roman Empire era when the term was used by Greek geographers, it did not describe a distinct people group but referred to a geographical area.

12. He used the term Iberia circa 500 BC.
13. The Greeks heard about Iberia from the Phoenicians.

A:
The missing first step of the following process is:
A: Choose the appropriate seeds for the specific location, season, and soil conditions.
Before starting the planting process, it is crucial to select the right seeds based on various factors such as the climate of the location, the current season, and the type of soil present. Various plant species exhibit different preferences and tolerance levels for specific conditions. For instance, some seeds may thrive in areas with ample sunlight, while others may be more suited to shaded spots.
Choosing seeds appropriate for the location and conditions will not only increase the chances of successful germination and growth, but it will also help you create a thriving garden or landscape that effortlessly complements the existing natural environment. Additionally, it's essential to consider factors such as the plant's mature size, watering requirements, and maintenance levels while making your seed selection. This will ensure that the plants you introduce can coexist harmoniously with any existing plants or elements in your garden space.
Therefore, the process would look like this:
1. Choose the appropriate seeds for the specific location, season, and soil conditions.
2. Pick a spot to plant them.
3. Dig a hole in the dirt.
4. Put the seed in the hole.
5. Pour some water on the seed and hole.
6. Cover up the hole.
7. Press down on it.
8. Spray some plant food on it.
By following these steps, you will set the foundation for a successful planting process and facilitate the growth of healthy plants.

How do you do this: clamp
Well, little buddy, a clamp is a special tool that helps you hold things tightly together, like a strong hug. To use a clamp, follow these steps:
1. Open the clamp: Most clamps have a handle or a screw that you can turn or squeeze to open the clamp's mouth (its opening).
2. Place the things you want to hold: After opening the clamp, put the objects you need to keep together between the clamp's mouth (the two faces that come together).
3. Close the clamp: Now, gently tighten the clamp by turning the handle or screw, or squeezing it (depending on the type) until the objects are held firmly.
4. Wait and let the clamp do its job: The clamp will use its strong "hug" to hold the things together for as long as you need.
Remember, always ask a grown-up for help if you're not sure how to use a clamp. They can guide you and make sure you stay safe.

CHAPTER III
ON THE PLAINS
The purchase of a buffalo robe, blankets, boots, and a Colt's revolver occupied but a short time, but the rifle was a much more difficult matter.
"You can always rely upon a Colt," the miner said, "but rifles are different things; and as your life may often depend upon your shooting-iron carrying straight, you have got to be mighty careful about it. A gun that has got the name of being a good weapon will fetch four times as much as a new one."
Denver was but a small place; there was no regular gunsmith's shop, but rifles and pistols were sold at almost every store in the town. In this quest Jerry was assisted by Pete Hoskings, who knew of several men who would be ready to dispose of their rifles. Some of these weapons were taken out into the country and tried at marks by the two men. They made what seemed to Tom wonderful shooting, but did not satisfy Hoskings.
"I should like the youngster to have a first-rate piece," he said, "and I mean to get him one if I can. There are two of these would do if we can't get a better, but if there is a first-rate one to be had in this township I will have it." Suddenly he exclaimed, "I must have gone off my head, and be going downright foolish! Why, I know the very weapon. You remember Billy the scout?"
"In course I do, everyone knew him. I heard he had gone down just before I got back here."

Plot:
In the small quaint town of Rockburgh, everything seems normal and ordinary, until a mysterious meteor shower occurs one night. The next day, the town residents discover a strange crystal containing a bizarre alien life form - an all-powerful disembodied penis.
This alien penis is initially harmless and becomes the center of attention and subject of many jokes in the town. However, it soon becomes apparent that the alien penis harbors a sinister motive, as it starts attacking and killing people, leading to widespread panic in the town of Rockburgh.
The curious events attract the attention of two unlikely heroes, Tony Mendoza, a nerdy comic book enthusiast, and Tabitha Evans, a law school dropout turned amateur journalist. Even though they seem like complete opposites at first, Tony and Tabitha quickly realize that they have to join forces to save the town and stop the murderous alien penis. Together, they research ancient alien legends and uncover a prophecy revealing that this alien life form is doomed to destroy Rockburgh to establish its dominion.
As the town crumbles under the weight of fear and destruction caused by the otherworldly phallus, Tony and Tabitha discover that the alien penis has some weaknesses, one of which is a unique and rare mineral called "Erectonite." They embark on a dangerous journey to find and obtain this rare mineral and devise a plan to use it against the rampaging alien penis.
With the clock ticking and their town on the brink of complete obliteration, Tony and Tabitha manage to find the Erectonite and trap the alien penis in an epic showdown. With clever wit, teamwork, and a hint of sexual innuendo, they exploit the creature's weakness and defeat it, saving Rockburgh from imminent destruction.
In the aftermath of the battle, Tony and Tabitha have developed a strong bond forged through their wild adventure. They decide to partner up and start a paranormal investigation agency, seeking out other bizarre and mysterious occurrences in small towns across America.
The movie ends with a hint of a sequel, as Tony and Tabitha set out on their next adventure, promising more laughs, action, and perhaps even more encounters with other deadly extraterrestrial foes.

The most widespread civil calendar and de facto international standard is the Gregorian calendar. Though that calendar is associated with the Catholic Church and the papacy, it has been adopted, as a matter of convenience, by many secular and non-Christian countries although some countries use other calendars.
See options at the end. Can we conclude that does the whole world use the gregorian calendar?
OPTIONS: (A). no (B). yes
(A). no
The whole world does not use the Gregorian calendar. Although it is the most widespread civil calendar and many countries have adopted it, there are still some countries that use other calendars. For example, some countries use Islamic or Hebrew calendars. So, not everyone uses the Gregorian calendar, but it is the most common one.

Mr. Drake hurried into the trailer, and Ethorne, Gwenny, Johnny Tepes, and I looked up as Mrs. DeLyon followed him. He looked at me. "Where would Digger go?" I shrugged and blinked. The question made no sense; Digger would not go anywhere. When he slept, he slept for ten hours. You could toss him around like a sack of potatoes, and he would not wake up. With one exception. "Bathroom?" Mrs. DeLyon shook her head. "No." Mr. Drake said, "And he's not in any of the beds. We looked in all three." Mrs. DeLyon said, "And under them. And I called for him. He wouldn't hide from me, would he?" I shook my head. Ethorne got up, went to the door, and shouted, "Digger! Where is you, Digger-boy? You don't need to hide no more. Everything's fine now!" The dogs barked in response, but no person answered. Mrs. DeLyon said, "Call Dr. Lamont. Maybe Susan put him in the backseat and forgot to tell us." Mr. Drake's voice held as little hope for that as Mrs. DeLyon's, but he said, "All right." Mrs. DeLyon said, "We'll get Chris to bed in the meantime." "I'm in charge," I said. Ethorne said, "When there's nothing you can do, you might as well sleep. Save your strength for when you need it." Mrs. DeLyon said, "Don't worry. At least one of us will stay in the trailer until your folks get back." Gwenny said, "C'mon, boyfriend. I'll see you to your bed." I said, "I can go by myself." Gwenny looked at Mrs. DeLyon, then at Johnny Tepes. "Well, that's a blow to a girl's ego." They smiled without much humor, and Mr. Drake hung up the phone. Ethorne said, "What is it?" Mr. Drake said, "Let's get Chris to bed first." I stood and went to the door. "G'night." How long it will probably take to find Digger? Pick the correct answer from the following options: - A few months. - A few minutes. - A few hours - not enough information
A:
Based on the information provided in the situation, we simply don't have enough information to accurately estimate how long it will take to find Digger. This response is chosen because there is a lack of crucial details that could help us determine a timeframe.
Factors that could influence how long it takes to find a missing person (or in this case, a character referred to as Digger) include the resources available for the search, the area in which he could be hiding or lost, any known routines or habits of the missing person that could help predict his location, how much time has already passed since he was last seen, and whether there are any leads to follow.
In the case of Digger's disappearance, while it is made clear that everyone in the trailer is invested in finding him and have even considered involving external help like Dr. Lamont, we don't know if they have enough resources or people to conduct an exhaustive search, nor do we know the potential area that needs to be searched. It's also unknown if Digger has any patterns or common places he frequents that could help in locating him, or when he was last seen.
Therefore, even though everyone seems quite eager and ready to find Digger, without knowing the specifics, it's impossible to accurately predict how long the search might take, whether it would be a matter of minutes, hours, or even months. Thus, the correct answer, given the current set of details we have, would be "not enough information".
