Translate "We have to be practical; we have to be aware of the need for TENs, in infrastructure terms and in job-creation terms and in getting people and goods moving throughout the European Union." to German?

Step 1: Identify the main clauses and phrases to be translated. "We have to be practical" "we have to be aware of the need for TENs, in infrastructure terms and in job-creation terms and in getting people and goods moving throughout the European Union." Step 2: Translate each clause and phrase independently. "We have to be practical" -> "Wir müssen praktisch sein" For the second clause, we should split it further: "we have to be aware of the need for TENs" -> "wir müssen uns der Notwendigkeit von TENs bewusst sein" "in infrastructure terms" -> "im Bereich der Infrastruktur" "in job-creation terms" -> "in Bezug auf die Schaffung von Arbeitsplätzen" "in getting people and goods moving throughout the European Union" -> "die Beförderung von Personen und Waren innerhalb der Europäischen Union betreffend" Step 3: Combine the translated clauses and phrases into a coherent sentence. "Wir müssen praktisch sein; wir müssen uns der Notwendigkeit von TENs bewusst sein, im Bereich der Infrastruktur, in Bezug auf die Schaffung von Arbeitsplätzen und die Beförderung von Personen und Waren innerhalb der Europäischen Union." Here's the final translation: "Wir müssen praktisch sein; wir müssen uns der Notwendigkeit von TENs bewusst sein, im Bereich der Infrastruktur, in Bezug auf die Schaffung von Arbeitsplätzen und die Beförderung von Personen und Waren innerhalb der Europäischen Union."

Here are two sentences: Bush said that he ordered the Treasury Department to freeze the assets after the suicide bombing in Jerusalem that killed 20 people Tuesday . Bush said in a statement that he ordered the U.S. Treasury Department to act following Tuesday 's suicide bombing attack in Jerusalem , which killed 20 people . Are the two sentences saying the same thing?

Yes, both sentences are saying the same thing. They both tell us that Bush ordered the Treasury Department to freeze some assets because of a sad event, a suicide bombing in Jerusalem where 20 people were hurt and lost their lives on a Tuesday. The sentences just have a slightly different way of saying the same message.

The company's chief executive Alexei Miller says the change was because Kiev has failed to pay its bills. He said its current debt to Russia stood at just over $1.7bn (£1.02bn). Russia had previously offered Kiev a subsidy, but the recent political crisis in Ukraine has led to a deterioration in relations. Mr Miller says the price of Russian gas for Ukraine has gone up to $385.50 per 1,000 cubic metres in the second quarter of 2014 from the previous rate of $268.50. It will mean Ukraine paying more than the UK for gas, having previously paid less, according to calculations by ICIS, the energy price-reporting agency. Its research shows the from 1 April Ukraine will pay 25.40 euros (£21.04, $35.04) per megawatt hour for gas. That compares to 21.17 euros per megawatt hour in the UK and 18.51 euros per megawatt hour that Ukraine previously paid. "It's now cheaper for Ukraine to buy elsewhere," ICIS European gas market analyst Tom Marzec-Manser said. What would stop state energy company Naftogaz doing so was the very limited pipeline capacity it had with the EU that could pipe gas eastward, he said. Smaller pipelines from Hungary and Poland served the country, but were not able to supply enough, enabling Russia to charge more than prices in the UK and the rest of Europe, he said. The move marks the end of a discount Russia agreed to give Ukraine in December. The deal came after talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine's then President Viktor Yanukovych, in which Russia also said it would buy $15bn-worth of Ukrainian government bonds. That agreement meant the cost of Russian gas supplied to Ukraine was slashed from more than $400 per 1,000 cubic metres. The news comes as Nato foreign ministers prepare to discuss ways to help Ukraine in the first meeting of ministers from the 28 member states since Russia's takeover of Crimea caused a diplomatic crisis. Ukraine's interim government last week said it will raise gas prices for domestic consumers by 50% to secure an International Monetary Fund (IMF) aid package. Ukrainians are accustomed to buying gas at heavily subsidised rates. But the IMF has made subsidy reform a condition its deal worth as much as $18bn. The IMF is also asking Ukraine to crack down on corruption and end central bank support for the Ukrainian currency. Ukraine's interim Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk has told parliament the country was "on the edge of economic and financial bankruptcy". The US Senate and House of Representatives have both passed legislation backing a $1bn loan guarantee to Ukraine. Russia's economic power lies in its key natural resources - oil and gas. The energy giant Gazprom is close to the Russian state and critics say it is little more than an economic and political tool of the Kremlin. NTV, a national television network, is also owned by Gazprom. What is a summary of this text?

Chief executive Alexei Miller announced that Russia is increasing the price of gas for Ukraine because Kiev failed to pay its bills, raising its debt to Russia to just over $1.7 billion. Previously, Russia had offered a subsidy to Kiev; however, the ongoing political crisis in Ukraine has strained their relations. For the second quarter of 2014, the price of Russian gas for Ukraine increased to $385.50 per 1,000 cubic meters from the prior rate of $268.50. This change means that Ukraine will now pay more than the UK for gas. The increase in gas prices for Ukraine comes as NATO foreign ministers discuss ways to assist the country, and Ukraine's interim government plans to raise domestic gas prices to secure an International Monetary Fund (IMF) aid package. The IMF has outlined certain conditions for the aid, including subsidy reform, corruption crackdown, and ending central bank support for the Ukrainian currency.

Compose the next sentence for this paragraph. (CNN)To watch or not to watch. That is the question for 12 jurors and six alternates in the Massachusetts murder trial of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez when the region's beloved Patriots play in Super Bowl XLIX on Sunday. On a day in which the girlfriend of victim Odin Lloyd took the stand and Lloyd's mother again left the courtroom in tears, Bristol County Superior Court Judge Susan Garsh on Friday had a warning for the jury. "I am not going to forbid you from watching the Super Bowl if that's something that's really important to you," she said.

But remember, you must be very careful not to talk or listen to anything about Aaron Hernandez during the game or you might not be a fair juror.

Nu putem avea democrație corespunzătoare fără a avea o opoziție liberă, puternică și vibrantă. Translate to English

"We cannot have a proper democracy without having a free, strong, and vibrant opposition." In a democratic system of governance, an effective, robust opposition plays an integral role in maintaining a balanced, transparent and accountable government. The opposition speaks for the interests of all groups in society and voices the concerns of the people. A free, strong, and vibrant opposition can safeguard democracy in various ways: 1. Providing constructive criticism: A healthy opposition constructively criticizes the government's policies, highlighting their shortcomings and suggesting possible improvements. This ensures that the government remains responsive to the needs of the people and adopts better policies. 2. Impeding abuses of power: Democracy involves the separation of powers to prevent any one body from monopolizing authority. A robust opposition serves as a check and balance on the government by holding it accountable for its actions, thereby impeding potential abuses of power. 3. Encouraging debate and dialogue: Opposition parties create a space for diverse opinions and perspectives, fostering open dialogue and debate on various issues. This encourages the government to consider different viewpoints and defend its stance, leading to more informed decision-making processes. 4. Ensuring representation: In a democracy, different sectors of society should be well-represented to ensure that their needs and concerns are addressed. Strong opposition parties offer an alternative to the ruling party and represent the interests of those who may not support the government's policies. 5. Contributing to policy-making: Opposition parties contribute to policy-making by proposing alternative solutions to the issues faced by society. In some instances, they may collaborate with the government to put forward bipartisan legislation that benefits the nation as a whole. 6. Safeguarding democratic values: A free, strong, and vibrant opposition actively promotes and defends democratic institutions, values, and processes. By doing so, they play a crucial role in maintaining a well-functioning democratic system. In conclusion, the presence of a free, strong, and vibrant opposition is essential for a proper democracy to thrive. It ensures that diverse perspectives are heard, abuses of power are prevented, and policy-making processes are more thorough, better representing the needs and concerns of the entire population.

Background: One of 10 children, Danny Thomas was born as Amos Muzyad Yakhoob Kairouz on January 6, 1912, in Deerfield, Michigan, to Charles Yakhoob Kairouz and his wife Margaret Taouk. His parents were Maronite Catholic immigrants from Lebanon. Kairouz and Taouk are two prominent families from Bsharri. Thomas was raised in Toledo, Ohio, attending St. Francis de Sales Church (Roman Catholic), Woodward High School, and finally the University of Toledo, where he was a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. Context: Thomas enjoyed a successful 11-year run (1953-1964) on Make Room For Daddy, later known as The Danny Thomas Show. Jean Hagen and Sherry Jackson were his first family. The Hagen character died in 1956, replaced by Marjorie Lord. Jackson left the series in 1958, and Penny Parker replaced her in the 1959-1960 series. Parker was written out of the series with her marriage to the character Patrick Hannigan, played by comedian Pat Harrington, Jr. Lord and Harrington died a few weeks apart between November 2015 and January 2016. On January 1, 1959, Thomas appeared with his other Make Room For Daddy child stars, Angela Cartwright and the late Rusty Hamer, in an episode of NBC's The Ford Show, Starring Tennessee Ernie Ford. The show was produced at Desilu Studios, where Lucille Ball was appearing alongside Desi Arnaz Sr. in I Love Lucy, and it featured several guest stars who went on to star in their own shows, including Andy Griffith (The Andy Griffith Show, Mayberry RFD), Joey Bishop, and Bill Bixby (My Favorite Martian and others). He also scored a major success at the London Palladium, in the years when many big American stars appeared there. In 1970, the program was revived for a season under the title Make Room for Granddaddy. (See below.) Angela Cartwright (who spoke about her on- and off-camera relationship with her TV stepfather, Danny Thomas, on a groundbreaking ABC TV show, Make Room for Daddy) had said: "I thought Danny was hilarious and he was always cracking me up. He was loud and gregarious, nothing like my real Dad who is far more reserved than that. So, it was fun to be able to make smart remarks and get away with it. I would never have talked to my real parents that way, but in the make-believe world of the Williams family I got away with that." Cartwright also added that by the time Thomas' show had ended, she wanted to join the cast of The Sound of Music: "I went on an interview for the part of Brigitta. I was still filming The Danny Thomas Show, but I knew the series was coming to an end. After several auditions, I was the first von Trapp cast. I asked Danny Thomas if he would let me out of my contract so I could be in the movie and he was very gracious to let me out of the last show of the season. He didn't have to do that and I am very grateful he did." Question: what is make room for daddy? Answer:

"Make Room for Daddy" was a popular American television sitcom that aired from 1953 to 1964, created by and starring Danny Thomas. The show was initially known as "Make Room For Daddy" and later changed its name to "The Danny Thomas Show." It revolved around the life of Danny Williams, played by Danny Thomas, a nightclub entertainer and his family. The show portrayed Danny as a loving but often bewildered father and husband trying to balance his career with his family life. The series explored various family and work situations, resulting in hilarious and heartwarming moments. During its initial run, the show featured different actresses playing Danny's wife and children, most notably Jean Hagen, Sherry Jackson, Marjorie Lord, Angela Cartwright, and Rusty Hamer. "Make Room for Daddy" was widely popular and well-received by audiences, earning several awards and nominations throughout its 11-year run. The show was known for featuring guest appearances by various actors who went on to achieve success in their own series, including Andy Griffith, Joey Bishop, and Bill Bixby. In 1970, a revival of the show titled "Make Room for Granddaddy" aired for a season, bringing back some of the original cast members, including Danny Thomas, Marjorie Lord, and Angela Cartwright. The revived series followed the life of an older Danny Williams as he navigated his role as a grandfather. Notably, during its time on air, "Make Room for Daddy" addressed various social issues and broke new grounds in television, providing a realistic portrayal of the trials and tribulations of a 1950s American family. The show also played a crucial role in shaping the American sitcom format and laying the groundwork for future family-based television series.

Write down the solution for this math problem: Solve 280 = -57*f + 22*f for f.

To solve the equation 280 = -57f + 22f for f, follow these steps: Step 1: Combine the f terms on the right side of the equation. -57f and 22f are like terms, so add them together: -57f + 22f = -35f Now our equation looks like this: 280 = -35f Step 2: Isolate the variable f by dividing both sides of the equation by -35. Divide both sides of the equation by -35: 280 / -35 = -35f / -35 Step 3: Simplify the equation and solve for f. -8 = f So the solution to the equation 280 = -57f + 22f is f = -8.

‘A Wanted Man - A Jack Reacher Novel’ by Lee Child - NYTimes.com “A Wanted Man” is Lee Child’s 17th Jack Reacher novel and the last to be published before Reacher goes Hollywood with “Jack Reacher,” a big Christmas movie based on book No. 9, “One Shot,” and starring — can’t say it ain’t so, because it is — Tom Cruise. Mr. Cruise seems such a wrong choice to play this jumbo vigilante that this is a good moment to contemplate the essential Reacher: not just what he looks like but also what he really is. Perhaps in sly response to a movie that will feature a lot of action, Mr. Child begins “A Wanted Man” by confining Reacher to very close quarters. The first 125 pages of this new novel are about a car trip. After waiting exactly 93 minutes on the eastbound ramp of a Nebraska highway, he successfully hitches a ride. The car contains two men and a woman, and Reacher knows nothing about them. Being Reacher, he will spend those first 125 pages observing every detail, watching every move, trying to deduce as much as he can. His enormous size counts for nothing during this part of the book. Nor does his appearance, although he has a busted nose and is said to resemble a very un-Cruise-like “gorilla with its face smashed in.” And he has no opportunities to resort to his tactic of choice, extreme violence. So he rides along an endless straight road through Iowa thinking about codes and signs and numbers and letters (“Reacher had no patience with people who claimed that y was a vowel”). He is a math guy at heart, and he isn’t likely to meet anyone equally wonky until this series takes him through Silicon Valley. On the road Reacher gradually figures out that the men, Alan King and Don McQueen, are kidnappers. Their hostage is Karen Delfuenso, a terrified waitress whose car they have hijacked. Reacher arranges to drive the car with Karen in the seat behind him so that they can make eye contact in the rearview mirror. Improbably Karen starts blinking and twisting her head to deliver some kind of secret message. Even more improbably, Reacher cracks her code almost immediately and finds out what she is trying to say. A third of the way into “A Wanted Man,” his only acts of violence have been hypothetical. “It was technically challenging to take out a guy in the front passenger seat while driving at 80 miles an hour,” he muses while at the wheel. Also, the 6-foot-5-inch Reacher has arms so long that he would need to keep his elbow bent: he wants to slug his passenger, not punch out the car’s side window. In any case, it’s time for Mr. Child to get him out of the car and unleash him on the book’s assorted evildoers. Outside the car, meanwhile, “A Wanted Man” has been developing one of the best female characters in the whole Reacher series: Julia Sorenson, an F.B.I. special agent from Omaha who is called in to investigate a potential interstate crime. Once Reacher is sprung from the car, he encounters Sorenson, who ought to be his natural adversary. But she, like all the women who interest Reacher, is as smart and methodical as he is, and he impresses her with his irrefutable, conveniently self-serving logic. He easily convinces her that whatever is unfolding, he and she should be on the same side. Reacher’s banter is usually more elegant than it is in “A Wanted Man.” He can do better than this, which he aims at a trucker who is bothering him: “Option 1, get back in your truck and get breakfast 50 miles down the road. Option 2, get in an ambulance and get breakfast through a plastic tube.” Still, the sang-froid of his delivery is what makes the big impression. And anyone worried about Reacher on screen can rest easy. Just remember how dauntingly Mr. Cruise can deliver that kind of dialogue, how greatly the character’s intelligence outshines his brawn, and how formidable Reacher would be even if he didn’t tower over everyone around him. Size doesn’t matter, as you will see in December. Since Mr. Child’s titles tend to be so generic (No. 18 will be “Never Go Back”), “A Wanted Man” is best thought of as the one with the car ride across the Midwest. But it eventually expands into something gigantic: a scheme involving an alphabet soup of federal agencies and the obligatory foreign terrorists operating on American soil. Quick action and solid detective work elevate the second part of this book until it segues into one of the best of the series’s climactic assaults: the expected, wildly over-the-top moment when Reacher must single-handedly penetrate some kind of huge, geometrically interesting, top-secret high-security fortress. This book’s version of that structure is described with clarity. And Reacher, who has been idly showing off his familiarity with Midwestern area codes, soil content and urban population counts, snaps into murderously good form. In this book he seems newly thoughtful about mortality, particularly his own. Reacher’s vigilante ethics, à la Dirty Harry’s, are likely to fuel much more controversy in a movie than they do on the page. But these smart, breathless books have no trouble justifying their hero’s acts of vengeance. And “A Wanted Man” is more ingenious than other Reacher books have been about the underground activities Reacher is thwarting. Mr. Child’s endings would be even better if his books’ worst bad guys, besides being swarthy and disposable foreigners, were given tough-guy talents of their own. What was this article about?

This article is a review of Lee Child's 17th Jack Reacher novel, "A Wanted Man," published in NYTimes.com. The article discusses how the book sets itself apart from its predecessors by confining Reacher to close quarters during the first part of the story and delving into his analytical mind and attention to detail. The review touches upon Reacher's notable size and the upcoming Hollywood film "Jack Reacher," starring Tom Cruise. Moreover, it examines the development of compelling characters, such as Julia Sorenson, an FBI special agent, and the expansion of the story into a massive plot involving multiple federal agencies and terrorists operating on American soil. The reviewer also highlights the quick action, solid detective work, and climactic assault that make "A Wanted Man" stand out among the Jack Reacher series. However, the article also suggests that it would be an improvement if the book's antagonists were given stronger character traits and talents.

Kurtis Eugene Warner (born June 22, 1971) is a former American football quarterback. He played for three National Football League (NFL) teams: the St. Louis Rams, the New York Giants, and the Arizona Cardinals. He was originally signed by the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent in 1994 after playing college football at Northern Iowa. Warner went on to be considered the best undrafted NFL player of all time, following a 12-year career regarded as one of the greatest stories in NFL history. Prior to the 1999 free-agency period, the Rams chose Warner to be one of the team's five unprotected players in the 1999 NFL Expansion Draft. Warner went unselected by the Cleveland Browns, who chose no Rams and whose only quarterback selection was Scott Milanovich. The Rams let Bono leave in free agency and signed Trent Green to be the starter. Banks was traded to the Ravens, and Warner now found himself second on the depth chart. After Green tore his ACL in a preseason game, Rams coach Dick Vermeil named Warner as the Rams' starter. In an emotional press conference, Vermeil--who hadn't seen Warner work with the first-string offense--said, "We will rally around Kurt Warner, and we'll play good football." With the support of running back Marshall Faulk and wide receivers Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt, Az-Zahir Hakim, and Ricky Proehl, Warner put together one of the top seasons by a quarterback in NFL history, throwing for 4,353 yards with 41 touchdown passes and a completion rate of 65.1%. The Rams' high-powered offense, run by offensive coordinator Mike Martz, was nicknamed "The Greatest Show on Turf" and registered the first in a string of three consecutive 500-point seasons, an NFL record. Warner threw three touchdown passes in each of his first three NFL starts; he is the only NFL quarterback in history to accomplish that feat. Warner drew more attention in the Rams' fourth game of the season, a home game against the San Francisco 49ers (who had been NFC West division champions for 12 of the previous 13 seasons). The Rams had lost their last 17 meetings with the 49ers, but Warner proceeded to throw a touchdown pass on each of the Rams' first three possessions of the game, and four touchdowns in the first half alone, to propel the Rams to a 28-10 halftime lead on the way to a 42-20 victory. Warner finished the game with five touchdown passes, giving him 14 in four games and the Rams a 4-0 record. Warner's breakout season from a career in anonymity was so unexpected that Sports Illustrated featured him on their October 18 cover with the caption "Who Is This Guy?" He was named the 1999 NFL MVP at the season's end for leading the Rams to their first playoff berth since 1989 (when they were still in Los Angeles) and their first division title since 1985. In the NFL playoffs, Warner ultimately led the Rams to a victory in Super Bowl XXXIV against the Tennessee Titans. In the game, he threw for two touchdowns and a then Super Bowl-record 414 passing yards, including a 73-yard touchdown to Isaac Bruce when the game was tied with just over two minutes to play, which proved to be the game-winning score. Warner also set a Super Bowl record by attempting 45 passes without a single interception. For his performance, Warner was awarded the Super Bowl MVP award. Using a quote from the above article, answer the following question: what team did kurt play for in the 1999 season

In the 1999 season, Kurt Warner played for the St. Louis Rams.

A man named Paul Bennett was found dead behind a Chinese restaurant. Before he died, he was made to sign the Sex Offenders Register because he tried to have sex with a postbox. A postbox is a big, metal box where people put letters to send to others. The police said his death was not suspicious, and it might be because of drugs, but they are not sure yet. They found him after someone saw him acting strangely with the postbox and called the police. He had to go to court, and they told him he had to get help for his alcohol problem and sign the Sex Offenders Register. They also made him pay money to the person who saw what he did and to the court.

Is there any way to save Quora questions to read offline? Is there any way to read Quora offline? Multi-choice problem: Are these two questions inquiring about the same information? Pick from: (1). no (2). yes

(2). yes Both of these questions are inquiring about the same information: the possibility to access and read Quora content offline. Quora, a popular question and answer platform available globally, does not provide an official built-in feature to save its content for offline reading. Although Quora's mobile app previously had the "Reading List" feature, where you could save content to read offline, this feature has been discontinued. However, there are alternative ways to save Quora questions and access them offline. Here are some suggestions: 1. Screenshot: One simple method to save Quora questions for offline reading is taking screenshots of the desired content. You can later access these images without needing an internet connection. This method, while convenient, might not be suitable for long answers, as it would require multiple consecutive screenshots to cover the entire content. 2. Copy and paste: You can copy the text of questions and answers on Quora and paste them into a document, note-taking app, or text file on your device. By saving this copied content to your device, you can access and read it offline. 3. Third-Party Apps: Some third-party applications and browser extensions, such as Pocket or Evernote, allow you to save web content, including Quora questions, for offline reading. These apps usually have features that enable you to organize and manage your saved content efficiently. To use one of these tools, install the app or extension on your device, create an account, and follow the instructions to save Quora content. 4. Save as PDF: Another method to save Quora questions for offline reading is by converting the webpage to a PDF document. Many web browsers, such as Google Chrome, have a built-in feature to save web pages as PDF documents. To do this on Chrome, navigate to the Quora question you want to save, click on the menu (three vertical dots in the upper right corner), select "Print," choose "Save as PDF" from the destination dropdown, and click "Save." The PDF will be saved to your device and can be accessed offline. Keep in mind that any solutions to saving Quora content for offline reading might not always remain consistent with changes made to answers or new answers being added. It's essential to periodically update your offline content to receive the most accurate information. In conclusion, although Quora does not officially provide an offline reading feature, a few alternatives exist to save Quora questions and access them without an internet connection. These methods include taking screenshots, copying and pasting the text, using third-party apps, and saving web pages as PDF documents. Each method has its advantages and drawbacks, so choose the one that best suits your needs.

Solve 2634 + 2008 = 237*q - 6971 for q. Solve this problem.

To solve the equation 2634 + 2008 = 237*q - 6971, we will follow these steps: 1. Simplify the equation. 2. Isolate the variable (q). Step 1: Simplify the equation First, let's add the numbers on the left side of the equation: 2634 + 2008 = 4642 The simplified equation then becomes: 4642 = 237*q - 6971 Step 2: Isolate the variable (q) To isolate q, we need to get rid of the constant on the right side of the equation. We can do this by adding 6971 to both sides: 4642 + 6971 = 237*q - 6971 + 6971 11613 = 237*q Now, to find the value of q, we will divide both sides by 237: 11613 / 237 = 237*q / 237 q ≈ 48.995780591 Since q is nearly equal to 48.995780591, it is approximately equal to 49. So, the solution to the problem is q ≈ 49.

By. Daily Mail Reporter. PUBLISHED:. 15:14 EST, 19 March 2013. |. UPDATED:. 15:14 EST, 19 March 2013. A Canadian porn actor accused of dismembering his Chinese lover and mailing the body parts to political parties and schools has collapsed in court today, during the second week of his preliminary hearing. Luka Magnotta, 30, has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the gruesome slaying and dismemberment of Jun Lin last May. He is accused of killing the university student and posting a video online that shows him stabbing and having sex with the dismembered corpse. Scroll down for video. Tumble: Wearing a black sweater with colored stripes, Magnotta, shown in a court sketch from today, appeared distressed during a video evidence session, before collapsing. Wearing a black sweater with colored. stripes, Magnotta appeared distressed during a video evidence session. this morning. The evidence is subject to a publication ban, until it is. determined that there is enough evidence to go to trial. He held his hand over his mouth and asked the guard in his glass-enclosed defendant's box for a five-minute break. He stood up and collapsed on the floor just after the judge agreed to an extended lunch break. According to Canadian Press, he was all of a sudden lying on his right side, crumpled into a fetal position, in the courtroom, still handcuffed and shackled. Overcome: The suspect, pictured in court sketch, held his hand over his mouth and asked the guard in his glass-enclosed defendant's box for a five-minute break. 'You might want to make room for an ambulance,' the Crown prosecutor, Louis Bouthillier, told the guards outside the courtroom. 'Somebody's collapsed.' Canadian Press said Magnotta's eyes were fixed on the ground not on the screen where the, presumably gruesome, video evidence was being shown. When he began covering his mouth, his lawyers came to check on him and 10 minutes into that segment of the hearing he asked the baliff to his side to request the break. As well as first-degree murder, Magnotta is also facing four other charges relating to the case. He is accused of dismembering Lin and mailing parts of his body across Canada, before leading police on an international manhunt before he was finally arrested in Germany. Grisly: Porn actor Luka Rocco Magnotta (left) is. accused of chopping up his boyfriend Jun Lin (right) and eating a part. of his body. Grim death: Lin, pictured, was a Chinese student studying in Montreal. Sick: Magnotta, pictured left and right, was looking at the ground not on the screen where the, presumably gruesome, video evidence was being shown. Lin's parents were not in the. courtroom on Tuesday morning. His father has attended the preliminary. hearing, which began March 11, sporadically but has not stayed in the courtroom when the most. graphic evidence has been heard. The. porn actor first appeared in court last Monday as his lawyers. unsuccessfully sought to close pre-trial proceedings to the press and. public. Magnotta has observed all hearings from a glass enclosure in the packed Montreal court room. During the proceedings, which are expected to last another one to two weeks, prosecutors are outlining the case against 30-year-old Magnotta and seek to persuade a judge they have enough evidence for the case to go to trial. On March 11, appearing for the first time since soon. after his June arrest, Magnotta wore a white T-shirt and khaki trousers,. leaning back in his chair as he listened to legal arguments. Also. in the courtroom was Diran Lin, father of victim Jun Lin, whose. dismembered body parts were mailed to schools and political parties in. the Canadian capital Ottawa and Vancouver in a crime that shocked Canada. and gained international notoriety. All eyes on me: A court sketch of Luka Rocco Magnotta as he appears for a preliminary hearing on March 11 in Montreal, Canada. He accused of murdering and dismembering his Chinese boyfriend. Ordeal: Daran Lin, father of murder victim Jun Lin heads to court with a translator in Montreal on Monday. His son was allegedly dismembered by Magnotta and his body parts mailed to political parties and schools. Magnotta is accused of first-degree murder, interfering with a dead body and other charges. He has pleaded not guilty. 'This. is the worst thing a family can endure. We are empty,' the Journal de. Montreal quoted Diran Lin as saying in an interview ahead of the. hearing. 'We had so much hope for Jun Lin.' Police say the video, which they believe is genuine, showed a man stabbing his victim to death before dismembering the corpse and then eating part of the body. Lin's hands and feet were mailed in May to the offices of political parties in Ottawa and to schools in Vancouver. His torso was found in a pile of garbage behind Magnotta's Montreal apartment, and his head was discovered in a Montreal park in July. Lin was a student at Concordia University in Montreal. Initial arguments revolved around an unusual defense request to exclude the public and the media, which was denied. The court imposed a publication ban on the evidence presented.

Solve -236*q + 1943 = -181 for q.

To solve the equation -236*q + 1943 = -181 for q, follow these steps: Step 1: Isolate the term with q in it. We want to get the q term by itself on one side of the equation, so we will move the constant 1943 to the other side. -236*q + 1943 - 1943 = -181 - 1943 This simplifies to: -236*q = -2124 Step 2: Solve for q. Now, we have a simple equation with only one term containing q. To find the value of q, we can divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient in front of q, which is -236: (-236*q) / -236 = -2124 / -236 This simplifies to: q = 9 So, the value of q in the equation -236*q + 1943 = -181 is 9.

How is "There was no lack of seriousness and toughness." said in Finnish?

To translate the given sentence, "There was no lack of seriousness and toughness," into Finnish, the first step is to identify the main components of the sentence: 1. Subject: "There" 2. Negation: "no lack of" 3. Nouns: "seriousness" and "toughness" Step 1: In Finnish, the word "there" can be expressed as "siellä," but it's not always necessary to include it in this context. We will leave it out to form a more natural-sounding Finnish sentence. Step 2: Let's now translate "no lack of." Here, "ei" is used for negation, "puutetta" means "lack," and "ja" means "and." So we have, "ei puutetta." Step 3: Translate "seriousness" and "toughness" into Finnish. "Seriousness" can be translated as "vakavuutta" and "toughness" as "sitkeyttä." Combining these translations, we get the Finnish equivalent of the given sentence: "Ei puutetta vakavuutta ja sitkeyttä."

Read this and answer the question An alloy is a mixture of metals or a mixture of a metal and another element. Alloys are defined by metallic bonding character. An alloy may be a solid solution of metal elements (a single phase) or a mixture of metallic phases (two or more solutions). Intermetallic compounds are alloys with a defined stoichiometry and crystal structure. Zintl phases are also sometimes considered alloys depending on bond types (see also: Van Arkel-Ketelaar triangle for information on classifying bonding in binary compounds). What are alloys defined by?

Alloys are defined by their metallic bonding character, which represents the unique manner in which metal atoms are held together in a solid state. This bonding character is primarily based on the interaction between positively charged metal ions and delocalized electron clouds that surround them. These electrons are also known as valence electrons, which are free to move throughout the substance, enabling electrical conductivity and other characteristic properties of metals. An alloy is formed when two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal, are combined together. The resulting material exhibits distinctive properties that are often different from those of its constituent elements. Alloys can exist in various forms, such as solid solutions, intermetallic compounds, and multi-phase mixtures. In a solid solution, the metal elements are present in a single phase and are homogeneously mixed at the atomic level. It can be either substitutional, where the atoms of one metal replace the atoms of another in a lattice structure, or interstitial, where smaller atoms fill the interstices or voids in the atomic lattice of a primary metal. Intermetallic compounds are alloys that have a defined stoichiometry and crystal structure. In these compounds, the metal elements combine in fixed proportions and have a well-defined arrangement in the crystal lattice, resulting in a compound that exhibits specific chemical and physical properties. Zintl phases, which are sometimes considered as alloys, are characterized by a unique bonding that falls between ionic, covalent, and metallic types. The Van Arkel-Ketelaar triangle is a useful tool for classifying the bonding in binary compounds, including alloys, based on their electronegativity difference and other characteristics. In summary, alloys are defined by their metallic bonding character, which results from the interactions between metal ions and the delocalized electrons that surround them. These materials can be categorized into various types, such as solid solutions, intermetallic compounds, and Zintl phases, depending on their bonding properties and compositions.

If "Man in denim shirt and tan pants with cowboy hat holds a jar in front of a house.", does it logically follow that "The man is in the house vacuuming."?

Let's analyze the statements step by step: Step 1: Read and understand both statements. Statement 1: "Man in denim shirt and tan pants with cowboy hat holds a jar in front of a house." Statement 2: "The man is in the house vacuuming." Step 2: Identify the key elements in both statements. Statement 1: - Man is wearing denim shirt, tan pants, and cowboy hat - Man is holding a jar - Man is in front of a house Statement 2: - Same man (assumption) - Man is inside the house - Man is vacuuming Step 3: Check if the second statement logically follows the first statement. We see that the man's clothing and the fact that he is holding a jar do not have any relevance to vacuuming or being inside the house. In Statement 1, the man is outside the house and in Statement 2, the man is inside the house. This creates a contradiction between the two statements. Conclusion: No, it does not logically follow that "The man is in the house vacuuming" based on the information provided in the first statement. The descriptions of the man's location and activity in each statement are not related or linked, leading to an inconsistency between the statements.

By. Lillian Radulova for Daily Mail Australia. Sydneysiders who opted for a late-night stroll by the ocean would have been treated to a romantic sight on Sunday night as the ocean literally glowed blue with each rolling wave. As delighted Manly Beach locals shared snaps of the strange phenomenon across social media, Iain Suthers from the University of New South Wales told Daily Mail Australia that the strange glow is likely to continue over the next few days before dispersing over the weekend. The oceanography expert said the colourful display was nothing to be concerned about, describing it as 'a seasonal event, welcoming the early stages of spring'. A local photographer captured the bright blue glow of the waves on Sydney's Manly beach on Sunday night. 'The glow is caused by Noctiluca scintillans, which is a single celled phytoplankton - the algae of the sea - which blossoms in the spring and the autumn and in 90 per cent of occasions occurs due to natural causes,' Mr Suthers said. 'It has organs inside its cells which allow it to bioluminate. It is really common in the deep ocean and only occurs at night when the animals - like squid or fish, bacteria or single cell pytoplantuum - use it to communicate. 'They might just have bacteria they have on their bodies, or they have their own enzymes to make themselves glow.' Mr Suthers, who researched the environmental spectacle 10 years ago, said that the algae appears due to a certain sequence of events that occur in the ocean, but that the exact environmental recipe for its occurrence is still unknown. The colour came from a group of single-celled phytoplankton at the waters surface, called Noctiluca scintillans. The cells glow when they senses a pressure change, which indicates that a predator is about to eat them. 'They probably started up off the coast of Port Stephens, where the eastern Australian current separates from the coast,' Mr Suthers said of Sunday night's event. The natural oceanographic up-welling of nutrients which occurs in this area, as well as the nutrients from the recent rainfall, followed by the stable calm conditions and plenty of sunlight, are likely to have brought the algae to the surface. Mr Suthers explained that the bizarre carnivorous cell, which preys on another type of algae called diatoms, gives off the luminous glow as a defence mechanism. The natural phenomenon is not dangerous, according to oceanography expert Iain Suthers, and is likely to last for the next few night. 'It eats these diatoms and grows and blooms and divides and it fills the water column and they float to the surface as a whole when the population starts to age,' he said. 'These cells glow at night, at any stage of their life, from when they first start to divide. 'What causes it is a little pressure from the breaking of wave or when you dive in to the water- any sense of pressure change like that, indicates that a predator is about to eat them. 'And so they give off this beautiful bioluminescence signal to warn off any potential predators trying to have a go at them.' What are highlight points for this article?

1. A striking bioluminescent phenomenon illuminates Sydney's Manly Beach with a blue glow, as captured in local photographer's images. 2. Oceanography expert Iain Suthers attributes the occurrence to Noctiluca scintillans, single-celled phytoplankton known as the "algae of the sea." 3. The natural glow occurs in spring and autumn, often caused by natural environmental factors, as these organisms bioluminate by using organs within their cells. 4. Noctiluca scintillans use bioluminescence to communicate and as a defense mechanism against predators by sensing pressure changes in the water. 5. Suthers stated that the exact environmental recipe for the algae's appearance is still unknown, but a combination of nutrients from rainfall, calm conditions, and sunlight may have contributed. 6. This natural phenomenon is not dangerous and is expected to last for several more nights before dispersing.

Shares of AT & T climbed 4.4 percent or 90 cents to $ 21.40 , adding to the previous day 's gain of 6 percent . Shares of AT & T climbed 4 percent , adding to the previous day 's 6 percent rise . Are these sentences conveying the same meaning?

While these two sentences are similar in that they both discuss the rise in AT&T's shares, they do convey slightly different information. In the first sentence, it states that "Shares of AT&T climbed 4.4 percent or 90 cents to $21.40, adding to the previous day's gain of 6 percent." This sentence provides more specific details about the increase in AT&T's shares. It tells us that the shares went up by 4.4 percent, which is equal to a 90-cent increase, bringing the share price to $21.40. Additionally, the sentence highlights that this increase adds to the 6 percent gain experienced the day before. In the second sentence, it says that "Shares of AT&T climbed 4 percent, adding to the previous day's 6 percent rise." This sentence is more concise but also less specific than the first sentence. It informs us that the shares went up by 4 percent but does not provide the exact monetary value nor the resulting share price. Similar to the first sentence, it also emphasizes the 4 percent increase adding to the 6 percent rise from the previous day. In conclusion, these two sentences convey information about the increase in AT&T's shares and their connection to the previous day's gain. While the first sentence provides a more comprehensive and specific description of the shares' movement, the second sentence offers a simplified and less detailed account of the shares' increase.

Theodore John Kaczynski (; born May 22, 1942), also known as the Unabomber, is an American domestic terrorist. A mathematics prodigy, he abandoned an academic career in 1969 to pursue a primitive lifestyle, then between 1978 and 1995 he killed three people, and injured 23 others, in a nationwide bombing campaign targeting those involved with modern technology. In conjunction, he issued a social critique opposing industrialization and advancing a nature-centered form of anarchism. At Harvard, Kaczynski lived during his first year at 8 Prescott Street, which was designed to accommodate the youngest, most precocious freshmen in a small, intimate living space. The next three years he lived at Eliot House. One of his suitemates there recalled that he avoided contact with others and "would just rush through the suite, go into his room, and slam the door." Another suitemate said Kaczynski was reserved, but regarded him as a genius: "It's just an opinion - but Ted was brilliant." Other students stated Kaczynski was less socially averse than these descriptions imply; an Eliot House resident who dined with Kaczynski at times called him "very quiet, but personable ... He would enter into the discussions maybe a little less so than most [but] he was certainly friendly." As a sophomore, Kaczynski participated in a study described by author Alton Chase as a "purposely brutalizing psychological experiment", led by Harvard psychologist Henry Murray. Subjects were told they would be debating personal philosophy with a fellow student, and were asked to write essays detailing their personal beliefs and aspirations. The essays were turned over to an anonymous attorney, who in a later session would confront and belittle the subject - making "vehement, sweeping, and personally abusive" attacks - using the content of the essays as ammunition, while electrodes monitored the subject's physiological reactions. These encounters were filmed, and subjects' expressions of rage were later played back to them repeatedly. The experiment ultimately lasted three years, with someone verbally abusing and humiliating Kaczynski each week. In total, Kaczynski spent 200 hours as part of the study. Kaczynski's lawyers later attributed his hostility towards mind control techniques to this experience. Some sources have suggested that Murray's experiments were part of the US government's research into mind control, known as Project MKUltra. Chase and others have also suggested that this experience may have motivated Kaczynski's criminal activities, while philosopher Jonathan D. Moreno has said that, while "Kaczynski's anti-technological fixation and his critique itself had some roots in the Harvard curriculum," Kaczynski's later bombing campaign can "by no means be laid at Harvard's door". Kaczynski earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics from Harvard in 1962. He finished with an above-average 3.12 GPA but had been expected to perform better. Was his behaviour in later life attributed to the experiments?

The behavior of Theodore Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, in his later life cannot be solely attributed to the experiments he participated in at Harvard. However, it is suggested that his experiences in the study led by psychologist Henry Murray may have contributed to his hostility towards mind control techniques, which in turn could have had some influence on his later criminal activities. While some sources have connected the experiments to the US government's Project MKUltra, suggesting that it might have played a role in shaping his anti-technology fixation, others, like philosopher Jonathan D. Moreno, emphasize that Kaczynski's bombing campaign cannot be solely blamed on his experiences at Harvard. In conclusion, it is possible that the experiments had some impact on Kaczynski's behavior and motivations in his later life, but it is important to recognize that multiple factors likely played a role in shaping his actions as the Unabomber.

Thomson was born in Glasgow, Scotland, the youngest of six children. He arrived in the United States two years later. His father, a cabinet maker, had moved to New York City shortly before Bobby's birth and sent for his family in 1925. Thomson grew up on Staten Island in New York City and signed with the New York Giants for a $100 bonus right out of Curtis High School in 1942. Longstanding rumors that the Giants engaged in systematic sign stealing during the second half of the 1951 season were confirmed in 2001. Several players told the Wall Street Journal that beginning on July 20, the team used a telescope, manned by coach Herman Franks in the Giants clubhouse behind center field, to steal the finger signals of opposing catchers. Stolen signs were relayed to the Giants dugout via a buzzer wire. Joshua Prager, the author of the Journal article, outlined the evidence in greater detail in a 2008 book. Although Thomson always insisted that he had no foreknowledge of Branca's pitch, Sal Yvars told Prager that he relayed Rube Walker's fastball sign to Thomson. Branca was privately skeptical of Thomson's denials but made no public comment at the time. Later he told The New York Times, "I didn't want to diminish a legendary moment in baseball. And even if Bobby knew what was coming, he had to hit it.... Knowing the pitch doesn't always help." Whether the telescope-and-buzzer system contributed significantly to the Giants' late-season 37-7 win streak remains a subject of debate. Prager notes in his book that sign stealing was not specifically forbidden by MLB rules at the time and, moral issues aside, "...has been a part of baseball since its inception". Sign stealing using optical or other mechanical aids was outlawed by MLB in 1961. Thomson however, late in his life, rebuked his prior claims of not receiving the sign on the Shot Heard 'Round the World, and admitted that the sign was received. What was the controversy about?

The controversy surrounding Bobby Thomson's "Shot Heard 'Round the World" in the 1951 baseball season revolves around the allegations of systematic sign stealing by the New York Giants during the second half of the season. Sign stealing, in this context, refers to the practice of observing and decoding the signals given by the opposing team's catcher to the pitcher and relaying the information to the batter, giving them an advantage to know what type of pitch is coming. In 2001, several former Giants players confirmed to the Wall Street Journal that starting on July 20, 1951, the team used a telescope manned by coach Herman Franks in the clubhouse behind center field to steal the finger signals of the opposing catchers. These stolen signs were then relayed to the Giants' dugout via a buzzer wire. Joshua Prager, the author of the Journal article, presented more detailed evidence in his 2008 book. Bobby Thomson had always insisted that he had no prior knowledge of Ralph Branca's pitch, but Sal Yvars claimed that he relayed Rube Walker's fastball sign to Thomson before the famous home run. Branca, the Brooklyn Dodgers' pitcher who threw the pitch, was privately skeptical of Thomson's denials but chose not to publicly challenge the legitimacy of the "Shot Heard 'Round the World" at the time. The controversy around this event raises questions about the ethics and fairness in the game of baseball. While sign stealing without aid was not specifically forbidden by Major League Baseball (MLB) rules at the time and has been a part of the sport since its inception, the use of optical or mechanical aids to steal signs was eventually outlawed by MLB in 1961. Towards the end of his life, Bobby Thomson changed his stance and admitted to receiving the stolen sign on the "Shot Heard 'Round the World," lending credibility to the controversy and raising questions about the extent to which the Giants' late-season 37-7 win streak was aided by their sign-stealing tactics. Ultimately, the controversy surrounding the historic moment highlights the ethical dilemmas and complexities that can arise in competitive sports.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you are interviewing for a specific position, then any behavioral interview questions will probably relate to common challenges that you'll face while working. The questions will prompt you to explain how your personal attitude and skill-set will apply to this new job. If you are applying for a job that involves customer service, then you will probably be asked questions about past experiences handling customers. How have you dealt with angry customers? How have you gone out of your way to satisfy customers? If you are applying for a job that will entail working in a team, then some of the interview questions may revolve around your past experience working in teams. How have you taken charge or helped balance a team? If the potential job involves emergency response or high-pressure situations, then many of the behavioral interview questions will seek to understand how you behave under pressure. Think about times when you have reacted calmly and decisively to a high-pressure situation. Read over lists of the most common interview questions. If you are applying to a big-name company that fields a lot of applicants, then search online for the accounts of others who have interviewed for the same job at the same company. You don't need to rehearse and regurgitate a scripted answer. You only need to be able to reference examples that paint you in a positive light. Before the interview, make a short list of situations and projects from past jobs that might be relevant to this new position. Try to remember the details. If you cannot clearly explain what you did in a situation, then you should not use that situation as an example. Consider sketching out potential answers beforehand. Again: no need to memorize them! Simply use the writing as a tool for exploring how a given situation relates to the new job.

The article is about preparing for behavioral interview questions by understanding common challenges related to the job, using past experiences to showcase personal attitude and skills, and considering various strategies such as reviewing common questions, researching company-specific questions, and outlining potential answers without memorizing them.

Write an article based on this "Microsoft has reported a $3.2bn net loss for the three months to 30 June after posting $8.4bn of writedowns."

Title: "Microsoft Loses Money, but it's not so Bad" Once upon a time, there is a big and famous company called Microsoft. They make things called computers, games, and other things that you probably like. But during three months, from April to June, they had a problem. They lost a lot of their money! Microsoft lost $3.2 billion, which is a lot of money. Imagine 3.2 billion candies; that's how much money they lost. This happened because they had to make a few choices that cost them $8.4 billion. This is even more candies, right? These choices are things like getting rid of something they bought before or not making something they thought they were going to make. But don't worry! Even though they lost a lot of money, they are still okay. Microsoft is a very smart company, and they know that sometimes you have to lose some money to become better in the future. They believe that after all, they will still make more computers, games, and other fun things that you love. So, even though Microsoft lost money, they are still here to stay, and we will all keep playing their games and using their computers. Just like when you lose a game, and you try again, Microsoft will also try again, and they will get better with their choices and how they make money. And maybe someday soon, they might even make more money than they lost! That would be pretty amazing, huh?

Solve 966*i = -2956*i - 58830 for i.. What is the answer??

Okay, little buddy, let's solve this equation together! We have: 966 * i = -2956 * i - 58830 First, let's move the -2956 * i to the left side of the equation to get all the "i" terms on the same side. So, we will get: 966 * i + 2956 * i = -58830 Now, let's add 966 and 2956 together. You will get: (966 + 2956) * i = -58830 --> 3922 * i = -58830 Now, we want to figure out what "i" is, so we need to divide both sides of the equation by 3922. i = -58830 / 3922 When you do the division, you get: i = -15 So, our final answer is i = -15. Great job solving this together!

How to write a proof of funds letter<br>Check the client's accounts. In most cases, if you are being asked to provide a proof of funds letter, then you are working as a lending officer or other senior personnel at a bank, credit union, or other financial institution. The first step, before you begin to write the letter, is to verify that the client does indeed have the requested funds. Does this next sentence follow, given the preceding text? In most cases, if you are being asked to provide a proof of funds letter with words, then you are working as a lending officer or other senior personnel at a bank, credit union, or other financial institution

Okay little buddy, let me explain this to you. A proof of funds letter is a special letter that shows someone has enough money to do something important. To write this letter, you need to work in a place where they keep people's money, like a bank. Now, the second sentence you shared is almost the same as the first one. It's just adding "with words" which doesn't really change the meaning. So it's saying the same thing again, and we don't need to repeat it. We can just stick with the first sentence, and it will be much clearer!

Fernando Alonso has urged Ferrari to improve ahead of the 2013 Formula One season, labeling the Italian team's performance in last year's championship unbefitting of the sport's most successful constructor. Last season two-time world champion Alonso finished just three points behind eventual title winner Sebastian Vettel of Red Bull, but the Spaniard insists Ferrari must do more if the team is to challenge for the drivers' title. "At the end of the year we were quite far from Red Bull and McLaren," the 31-year-old Spaniard told Formula One's official website after his first run out in the team's new F138 car at a preseason testing event in Barcelona. "We've been in a group with Force India, behind Lotus and Sauber. We cannot belong to this group -- we know that. We need to be in the group of the leaders and for this we need to do a good job this winter." Last season Alonso earned many plaudits for taking a Ferrari car -- widely considered to be uncompetitive -- to the brink of a first drivers' title for the team since Kimi Raikkonen's in 2007. Red Bull dominance. The Spanish driver draws encouragement from last year's exploits and he is confident of once again rivaling triple world champion Vettel -- if Ferrari can improve on their slow start to 2012. "At the first four races we had finishes of ninth in China and seventh in Bahrain, so even with all those problems with the car we were fighting for the world championship," continued Alonso. "If we overcome our bad start of 2012 -- and think positive -- there is no reason for us not to fight for the championship again this year if we only improve the car a bit." The 2013 season gets underway with the Australian Grand Prix on March 17 and Alonso has urged Ferrari to arrive at the Melbourne race ready to challenge the dominance of Red Bull, who have now won the drivers' and constructors' titles for three consecutive years. "We need to improve from where we were last year because obviously it was not enough -- we finished second and we want to finish first," added the former McLaren driver. "So our immediate goal to improve in the first half of the year shouldn't be that difficult. We are relatively confident." What are highlight points for this article?

Fernando Alonso is a race car driver who drove for Ferrari in 2012. He did really well but didn't win the big championship. He wants his team, Ferrari, to get better for the 2013 Formula One season so they can try to win. He knows they can do it if they work hard and make their race car go even faster. Last year, some teams like Red Bull and McLaren were faster than Ferrari, and Fernando doesn't want this to happen again. The new season will start with a big race in Australia, and he hopes Ferrari can be better right from the beginning.

I think some people that are giving this place 4-5 stars need to revisit and adjust their reviews. This restaurant is of no higher quality than Roberto's and that's not saying much. Despite Phat Frank's accommodating personality, I don't see the quality here. I stopped here for lunch last week only because I happen to be in the Sunset and Decatur area and the listing had some good reviews from people I actually know. Well, I don't trust any of you anymore...OK I'm kidding, sort of. Selection: "Steak" Burrito upgraded to "wet" with red sauce. I was not a fan of this offering due to the fact that the "steak" was more like ground beef, the burrito was barely warm (bordering on room temperature) and the red sauce was essentially watered down ketchup and had no kick to it whatsoever. Overall the meal was a disappointment. I'm not sure how a burrito that is made on the spot is sent out room temperature but that's what I got. Phact: I won't be back. Choose: was this review given positively or negatively? OPTIONS: a). negative; b). positive;

a). negative This review is given negatively. The reviewer expresses disappointment with the food quality, specifically the steak burrito, mentions it being barely warm, and criticizes the red sauce as being like watered-down ketchup. They also state that they won't be back, which is another indicator of a negative review. The positive parts mentioned, such as Phat Frank's accommodating personality, are outweighed by the negativity towards the meal.

Determine the sentiment: If you are looking for a film the portrays the pointless and boring existence of middle class lives caught in a web of non-communication and false ideals, then this is the film for you. If you also what the film to be engaging and keep your interest, then you should probably look elsewhere. There are many films that do this far better. For example, try some of the darker films by Bergman. The Filmmaker felt that in order to show the spiritual poverty of the middle class he should subject the viewer to one agonizingly dull and vacuous incident after another until the film finally comes to its tortuous and pathetic end. If you value your time there are far better ways to spend two hours, like cleaning your house, for example.

The sentiment expressed in this review is decidedly negative. This evaluation encompasses several dimensions: 1. Criticism on Storyline and Theme Representation: The reviewer indicates that the film aims to reflect the "pointless and boring existence of middle class lives caught in a web of non-communication and false ideals." However, the phrasing suggests that the reviewer not only believes the film successfully demonstrates this point, but also that they found the exploration of this theme to be tedious and unimpressive. The use of negative descriptors such as "pointless" and "boring" imply dissatisfaction. 2. Lack of Engagement: The reviewer asserts that if the potential viewer wants to find the movie engaging and interesting, they should probably look elsewhere. This statement clearly shows that the reviewer did not find the movie captivating or absorbing, reinforcing the negative sentiment. 3. Comparison and Reference to Better Options: The reviewer suggests that there are many other films that better portray the theme explored in this movie. They even recommend checking out some of the darker films by Bergman. This comparison negatively reflects on the film being reviewed and implies it's not worth the viewer's time. 4. Criticism on Pacing and Content: The reviewer states that the filmmaker subjects the viewer to a series of events described as "agonizingly dull" and "vacuous" leading to a "tortuous and pathetic end." This stark criticism presents the film as painfully slow-moving, indicating a lack of action, intrigue, or meaningful incidents that could maintain viewer interest. 5. Suggestion of Better Use of Time: In the conclusion, the reviewer advises that one's time would be better spent doing a mundane task, specifically cleaning the house, rather than watching this film. This suggests a deep dissatisfaction with the film and underscores the overall negative sentiment. In summary, the reviewer finds the film overall disappointing and frustrating to watch due to its perceived monotony, tediousness, and its inability to engage and maintain the viewer’s interest effectively. They believe there are other movies and even daily chores that offer a more rewarding use of viewers' time.

Answer the question...when did the eastern and western church split??

Okay little buddy, imagine that there are two big churches. One is called the Eastern Church and the other is called the Western Church. A long, long time ago, they used to be friends and work together. But then, they started to have some disagreements and stopped being friends. This happened around the year 1054, and we call it "The Great Schism" or "The East-West Schism." So, the two big churches split apart and have been separate ever since.

Premise: they have really got it better than we do in a lot of ways you know Hypothesis: We are better off than they are. Does the premise entail the hypothesis?

Step 1: Analyze the premise and hypothesis. The premise states that "they have really got it better than we do in a lot of ways you know." Here, "they" refers to some other group of people, and "we" refers to us. It acknowledges that the other group has advantages over us in many aspects. The hypothesis posits that "We are better off than they are." This statement suggests that our situation is preferable to that of the other group. Step 2: Compare the premise and hypothesis. The premise acknowledges the advantages they have over us, while the hypothesis claims that we are better off compared to them. Step 3: Determine if the premise entails the hypothesis. To determine if the premise entails the hypothesis, we need to analyze if the truth of the premise guarantees the truth of the hypothesis. If the premise is true, then the hypothesis must also be true for the premise to entail the hypothesis. In this case, the premise states that they have advantages over us in many aspects. This statement does not guarantee that our condition is better than theirs (hypothesis). It only specifies that they are better in some ways, while the hypothesis claims that our overall situation is better. Conclusion: The premise does not entail the hypothesis. The truth of the premise does not guarantee the truth of the hypothesis, and they express contrasting views on the comparison between our situation and that of the other group.

2). yes. These sentences are paraphrases because they convey the same meaning using different expressions. In both sentences, the main idea is that Audrey Hepburn's portrayal adds to the personality of the character Holly Golightly. The first sentence puts the element "Audrey Hepburn" before "played by Holly Golightly," whereas the second sentence reverses the order, placing "Holly Golightly character" before "played by Audrey Hepburn." Both sentences ultimately express the same point, making them paraphrases. Option 1, which states 'no,' is incorrect since the two sentences do have the same meaning despite their structural differences.

Anti-aircraft warfare Most Western and Commonwealth militaries integrate air defence purely with the traditional services, of the military (i.e. army, navy and air force), as a separate arm or as part of artillery. In the United States Army for instance, air defence is part of the artillery arm, while in the Pakistan Army, it was split off from Artillery to form a separate arm of its own in 1990. This is in contrast to some (largely communist or ex-communist) countries where not only are there provisions for air defence in the army, navy and air force but there are specific branches that deal only with the air defence of territory, for example, the Soviet PVO Strany. The USSR also had a separate strategic rocket force in charge of nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles. Q: Air defence in the US Army is part of what arm?

Air defence in the US Army is part of the artillery arm. This branch focuses on providing protection against aerial threats such as enemy aircraft, missiles, and drones by utilizing various anti-aircraft weaponry and defense systems. These systems can include surface-to-air missiles, anti-aircraft guns, and advanced radar systems to detect and track incoming threats. Integrating air defence with artillery allows for a cohesive strategy in countering both ground and aerial targets, ensuring a more effective overall defence capability.

How is "His 19-year-old brother, Muhamed, screamed back." said in Turkish?

"His 19-year-old brother, Muhamed, screamed back." sentence can be translated to Turkish as "19 yaşındaki kardeşi Muhamed, geri bağırdı." Let's break it down word-by-word to understand how this translation was formed: 1. "His": In Turkish, possessive pronouns are used by adding specific suffixes to the noun. In this case, it is "-i" for the brother (kardeş) which makes it "kardeşi" (his/her brother). 2. "19-year-old": Turkish uses the word 'yaşında' to express someone's age. Therefore, this expression becomes "19 yaşında." 3. "Brother": The word for brother in Turkish is "kardeş." As explained earlier, we use the possessive form "kardeşi" after combining it with the age expression, making it "19 yaşındaki kardeşi." 4. "Muhamed": The name remains the same in Turkish but may sometimes be spelled as "Muhammed" with a double "m". In this translation, we use the original spelling Muhamed. 5. "Screamed back": The verb screamed can be translated to "bağırmak" in Turkish. Here, "back" implies that Muhamed responded to someone's shout. To express this, we add the adverb "geri" (back) to the verb. In Turkish, verbs are transformed to match the subject. For the third person singular past tense of "bağırmak," it becomes "bağırdı." Thus, "screamed back" translates to "geri bağırdı." So, "His 19-year-old brother, Muhamed, screamed back." in Turkish can be translated as "19 yaşındaki kardeşi Muhamed, geri bağırdı."

Premise: "If President Milosevic continues to choose aggression over peace, NATO's military plans must continue to move forward, Clinton decreed Friday." Based on this premise, is the hypothesis "NATO must move forward if milosevic decides to be aggressive. " true?

Based on the given premise, the hypothesis "NATO must move forward if Milosevic decides to be aggressive" can indeed be considered true. To provide a detailed understanding of the connection between the premise and the hypothesis, it is helpful to break down the components of both statements and see how they align. Firstly, the premise provides information about the decision-making process of two entities: President Milosevic and NATO. It states that if President Milosevic continues to opt for "aggression over peace," the consequence will be that "NATO's military plans must continue to move forward." This statement is attributed to President Clinton, which suggests that this position is supported by the United States government and likely reflects the policy of NATO as a whole. It should be noted that the premise does not offer a clear definition of the term "aggression." However, it contrasts this term with "peace," which implies that "aggression" would involve actions that threaten the stability or safety of other nations, create or exacerbate tensions, or do not promote peaceful coexistence and cooperation. Now, let's examine the hypothesis. It states that "NATO must move forward if Milosevic decides to be aggressive." This hypothesis essentially reflects the sentiment outlined in the premise. It directly connects President Milosevic's decision to engage in aggression with NATO's response of moving its military plans forward. The ability to confirm the hypothesis as true lies in the logical relationship between the premise and the hypothesis. The premise asserts that President Clinton has effectively decreed that NATO's military plans must continue to progress if Milosevic opts for aggression, and the hypothesis is in line with this statement. As a result, it can be concluded that the hypothesis accurately captures the essence of the situation as described in the premise, assuming that aggressive actions taken by Milosevic correspond to the vague notion of "aggression" discussed earlier. In summary, based on the premise provided, the hypothesis "NATO must move forward if Milosevic decides to be aggressive" is true. This conclusion is reached because the premise explicitly outlines a scenario in which President Milosevic's choice of aggression leads to a specific response from NATO, involving the advancement of its military plans. The hypothesis succinctly and accurately represents this causal relationship, further reinforcing its legitimacy.

Generate a context and a hypothesis.

Step 1: Choose a broad topic I will generate a context and hypothesis related to the environment, as it is an area of interest to many people and has a strong impact on our daily lives. Step 2: Narrow down the topic Within the environment, I'll focus on the specific subject of air pollution, as it is a pressing issue in many urban areas and has a measurable impact on public health. Step 3: Develop the context Air pollution is a pressing environmental issue in urban areas worldwide. It is caused by emissions from industrial processes, vehicle exhaust, and other human activities. The concentration of pollutants, such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide, can have adverse effects on human health, including respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. More vulnerable populations, such as children and the elderly, are at a higher risk of experiencing these health effects. As a result, reducing air pollution levels is essential for improving public health and overall quality of life in urban communities. Step 4: Formulate a hypothesis By observing the context and understanding that air pollution has an impact on public health, I can create the following hypothesis: Implementing stricter regulations on industrial emissions and encouraging the use of cleaner transportation methods, such as electric vehicles and public transit, will lead to a significant decrease in urban air pollution levels and ultimately improve public health. This hypothesis can be tested by analyzing data on air pollution levels and public health indicators in various cities before and after the implementation of these regulations. If the hypothesis is correct, the data should show a notable decline in air pollution levels and corresponding improvements in public health.

(I). yes. The second sentence is true because the first sentence tells us that the canal (Levassor River) is a murky stream and there is a stone footbridge to cross over. The second sentence also says that the canal is a murky stream and we should cross over the stone footbridge. So the information matches, and the second sentence is true. The other choices (II and III) are wrong because we can clearly tell from the first sentence that the second sentence is true.

Add Interest Timberlake, who was in the Houston area as a part of his Man of the Woods world tour, surprised Sarah Salazar in her hospital room in eastern Texas, her mother wrote in a Facebook post Friday, just one week after Sarah was wounded in a mass shooting. Sarah was among those injured at Santa Fe High School when a former student opened fire on two art classrooms, killing 10 and wounding 13, police said. Karwai Tang/WireImage/Getty Images Sarah's mother, Sonia Lopez-Puentes, shared an image of her daughter with the pop star in her hospital room on Friday, showing Timberlake smiling and crouching at her bedside. Lopez-Puentes thanked him and other special visitors, including Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt, in a separate post on Saturday. "JJ Watt, Justin Timberlake ... school officials, board members, teachers, fellow classmates, friends and family have taken time to visit Sarah this week showing their love and support bringing smiles to her beautiful face," she wrote, adding that her daughter appeared to be "making progress." Scott Olson/Getty Images Brett Coomer/Houston Chronicle via AP "Sarah is sad for the loss of her classmates and would love to see other survivors ... Thank you so much, Lopez-Puentes added. Timberlake acknowledged the shooting during his show at the Toyota Center in Houston on Wednesday and dedicated his performance of "Until the End of the Time" to those killed. "Let those angels hear you up there," he said to the singing crowd. "We're gonna light the whole arena, this whole city up for Santa Fe High School." Salazar sustained multiple injuries in the May 18 shooting, including a broken jaw, fractured rib bones and a shattered shoulder, according to a GoFundMe page set up on her mother’s behalf. The GoFundMe campaign had raised about $21,000 in donations as of Tuesday morning, a little more than one-third of its fundraising goal. The alleged gunman, 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis, was charged with capital murder in the wake of the shooting. Police said he was armed with a shotgun and a .38-caliber revolver, both of which were legally owned by his father. Police have yet to declare a motive. Pagourtzis is currently being held at the Galveston County Jail, where he's under suicide watch. ||||| What is a shorter version of the above article?

Summarize this article: Vatican City, Sep 10, 2013 / 04:12 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- An Italian pastor has donated a used Renault 4 with 186,000 miles to Pope Francis, in response to the exhortation he made to priests and seminarians in July to live simply and humbly. Father Renzo Roca, 69, who is pastor of St. Lucy Parish in Pescantina, wrote to the Holy Father offering to donate his car, according to news reports out of the Vatican. The car was delivered to the Pontiff on Sept. 7 at St. Martha’s Residence, shortly before the beginning of the Vigil for Peace which the Holy Father led in St. Peter’s Square that evening. “When I gave it to him, we got into the car, but I didn’t have to explain anything to the Pope because he told me that he also used a Renault 4 in Argentina and that it never left him stranded,” Father Roca said. After receiving the car, the Pope rode together with Father Roca to meet with the group of faithful that traveled with him to Rome. During the brief encounter, a young man gave the Pope a t-shirt and Father Roca explained that “normally we sell the shirts for five Euros to raise money for parish activities, but we gave it to him for free.” However, the Pope said he would pay for it. “He took out his wallet and gave us ten Euros and asked for change. Luckily I had five Euros in my pocket. Incredible,” Father Roca said. He also joked that a Swiss guard standing nearby told him, “Now we are going to be a little worried because we’ll have to watch what Pope Francis does with that Renault 4.” (43) ||||| UPDATE: Photos of the pope’s “new” car VATICAN CITY — When an Italian priest handed Pope Francis the keys to his classic 30hp Renault 4, the pope got behind the wheel and took off, leaving security squirming behind, knowing full well this would be just the beginning of a pope truly on the move. Even though he shouldn’t be able to reach Ferrari-like speeds with a 300cc engine, it might be tough keeping up when he hits the hills. “The security personnel next to me were very concerned because they understood that from now on he would be tooling around the Vatican in my car,” the car donor, 69-year-old Father Renzo Zocca, told the Italian Catholic magazine, Famiglia Cristiana. But the priest told the police, not to worry, “I left some snow chains in the trunk. You never know!” The new addition to the papal fleet — a silver-white four-door 1984 Renault with 186,000 miles on the odometer — happened on Saturday, just a few hours before the Sept. 7 prayer vigil in St. Peter’s Square for peace. The pope didn’t get his new wheels on eBay. Father Zocca said he wrote the pope, saying he wanted to meet him, donate his car, and tell him about his ministry: living and working for 25 years in a run-down, working-class neighborhood in Verona — the northern Italian city made famous by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Instead of feuding family rivalries, however, Father Zocca had to face off violent drug pushers who were destroying young people’s lives and leaving the priest death threats. Not even getting stabbed would stop the priest, who said, “I wanted to embody the (Second Vatican) Council in that parish in the outskirts, which has been the center of my life.” With both parents dead at 35 years old, Father Zocca raised his 14-year-old brother. He revitalized the community and built centers for the poor, disabled and the elderly. He and his brother lived in government housing, and with an apartment on the 9th-floor, “I would joke that I lived in the highest rectory in Italy.” Then on August 10 at 10:19 a.m., Father Zocca got a call on his cell from the pope. Pope Francis had gotten the priest’s letter and they spent half an hour talking about the priest’s work “in the peripheries,” as the pope has repeatedly called today’s priests to go. Father Zocca reiterated his offer that he had this white Renault in the garage that had been his faithful companion for decades as he drove all over Verona and Italy for his ministry. The pope was unsure, the priest said, and suggested the priest give it to the poor. “I answered that this car had already given much to the poor and now it had to go to the pope.” He told the magazine that he wanted to give the pope something that was a testimony to his experience and ministry of going into the outskirts “and what a better gift than my Renault 4?” he said. When the pope was sure Father Zocca had another car to use, the pope pulled out his appointment book, leafed through the pages and started listing the days and times he would be free in early September. With the appointment set for Sept. 7 at 3 p.m, Father Zocca had his mechanic, Stefano, give the car a tune-up, clean the spark plugs and put air in the tires. The car also runs on methane so “the Vatican won’t have to worry about high gas prices,” the priest said. On Saturday, the car was loaded on a tow truck with the priest and about 100 townsfolk, including the mechanic, following along on a chartered bus to Rome. They brought the car to the front of the pope’s residence at Domus Sanctae Marthae where the pope greeted the priest and gave him a big hug. Father Zocca told the pope that he felt bad half of their group was stuck outside the gates because of security concerns, so the pope told him, “Let’s go!” They hopped in the car with the priest behind the wheel and the pope in the passenger side while the mechanic and the priest’s assistant got in the back. The mechanic warned Father Zocca to “Go slow! We’re in the Vatican” even though they were only going 18 mph. The pope met the rest of the group and then they headed back inside the Vatican with the car. The pope said he had had a Renault 4 back in the day and that “it had never let him down.” Before saying goodbye, the pope told Father Zocca, “‘Write me again.’ Then I gave him the keys and he got behind the wheel,” the priest said. “I watched him drive off in that car as if it were the most normal thing in the world,” he said. ||||| Image caption The 20-year-old car has 300,000 km (190,000 miles) on its clock An Italian priest has given Pope Francis a 20-year-old white Renault 4 to drive himself around Vatican city. The car - which has 300,000 km (190,000 miles) on the clock - was presented to the Pope by Father Renzo Zocca at the weekend. The pontiff later drove it. Known for his humble lifestyle, Francis said he used to drive the same car in his native Argentina. In a bid to encourage austerity in the Church, the Pope has urged officials to avoid using expensive limousines. Father Zocca said he was moved by the Pope's effort to create "a Church for the poor", and told the Italian magazine Famiglia Cristiana that he wanted to give him a gift. "What better than my old Renault 4?" he asked. Father Zocca said he was surprised to receive a phone call from the pontiff accepting the gift. The priest turned up at his Vatican residence on Saturday to present the car. The BBC's David Willey in Rome says the Pope's bodyguards were amazed when he took the keys and drove off. ||||| Summary:

A kind Italian pastor named Father Renzo Roca gave Pope Francis an old car, a Renault 4, because Pope Francis asked priests to live simply. Pope Francis was very happy with his new car and even drove it around. He used to drive a similar car in Argentina. The car is 20 years old and has been used a lot, but Pope Francis likes it because it reminds him to live humbly and not use expensive things.

Frank McCarthy who produced the Academy Award winning biographical film Patton follows it up with a strong tribute to another of America's fighting generals, Douglas MacArthur. Gregory Peck gives a strong characterization of the man, his genius as well as his egotism. With MacArthur you never knew quite where one began and the other left off and too many times they blended. The whole story of Douglas MacArthur would be a six hour film or a TV mini-series. It would cover him from his days on frontier posts with his family to his time at West Point where he still has the highest scholastic average ever achieved by a cadet. It would talk about his service in the Phillipines as a young officer, his legend building bravery on the battlefields of World War I in France. It would also have to tell about him firing on the Bonus Marchers of World War I veterans in 1932, probably putting the final kabosh on any chances President Herbert Hoover had of getting re-elected. During MacArthur's last years he and Hoover had penthouse suites at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. That must have been a subject they avoided. This film concentrates on the years 1941 to 1952 and it is told in flashback. The film opens with MacArthur addressing the student body in 1962. As he speaks the words of the famous Duty Honor Country speech, MacArthur's mind goes back to World War II and his desperate struggle against the advancing Japanese on the island of Corregidor and the fields of Bataan on Luzon. The film takes him through his struggle to win back the Phillipines, the occupation of Japan and the first 18 months culminating in his relief of command by President Truman. MacArthur as a film would not work at all if it wasn't for the portrayals of Dan O'Herlihy and Ed Flanders as Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman respectively. It's the part of the film I enjoyed the best, seeing MacArthur and his relations with both these men. FDR by O'Herlihy captures the aristocratic squire and exceptionally devious man that was our 32nd President. Roosevelt was a man who got his points across with unusual subtlety and cleverness. Sometimes he liked scheming a little too much for its own sake, but he was the master politician of the last century. Note how he deals with MacArthur both as a battlefield commander and potential rival at the same time. Truman by Flanders is as people remember him, a blunt spoken man of the people who disliked MacArthur's haughtiness from the gitgo. Of course it's in the history books how Truman relieved MacArthur in 1951 for insubordination. MacArthur was insubordinate, no doubt about it. Yet I could write a whole thesis on the Truman-MacArthur relations. Along the way it need not have ever come to a crisis. I've always felt that FDR would have dealt with the whole matter in a far better way had he still been president then. MacArthur was also grandly eloquent and Gregory Peck captures some of that eloquence in some of the orations that made him as much a legend as victories on the battlefield. Listen to Peck at the Japanese surrender, at MacArthur's farewell to the nation before the joint session of Congress, and of course his speech to the cadets in 1962. Watch the newsreels and see if you don't agree. Is the sentiment of this review positive or negative?

The sentiment of this review is mostly positive. The reviewer highlights the strong portrayals of key characters, particularly Gregory Peck as Douglas MacArthur, Dan O'Herlihy as Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Ed Flanders as Harry S. Truman. They also appreciate the film's focus on MacArthur's relationships with these two presidents. The reviewer further compliments the eloquence of the script and how Peck brings it to life through his performance. While the review could be interpreted as more of an analysis of the historical context and characters, the overall tone is positive as it praises various aspects of the film.

Background: Lester Willis Young (August 27, 1909 - March 15, 1959), nicknamed "Pres" or "Prez", was an American jazz tenor saxophonist and occasional clarinetist. Coming to prominence while a member of Count Basie's orchestra, Young was one of the most influential players on his instrument. In contrast to many of his hard-driving peers, Young played with a relaxed, cool tone and used sophisticated harmonies, using what one critic called "a free-floating style, wheeling and diving like a gull, banking with low, funky riffs that pleased dancers and listeners alike". Known for his hip, introverted style, he invented or popularized much of the hipster jargon which came to be associated with the music. Context: In 1933 Young settled in Kansas City, where after playing briefly in several bands, he rose to prominence with Count Basie. His playing in the Basie band was characterized by a relaxed style which contrasted sharply with the more forceful approach of Coleman Hawkins, the dominant tenor sax player of the day. One of Young's key influences was Frank Trumbauer, who came to prominence in the 1920s with Paul Whiteman and played the C-melody saxophone (between the alto and tenor in pitch). Young left the Basie band to replace Hawkins in Fletcher Henderson's orchestra. He soon left Henderson to play in the Andy Kirk band (for six months) before returning to Basie. While with Basie, Young made small-group recordings for Milt Gabler's Commodore Records, The Kansas City Sessions. Although they were recorded in New York (in 1938, with a reunion in 1944), they are named after the group, the Kansas City Seven, and comprised Buck Clayton, Dicky Wells, Basie, Young, Freddie Green, Rodney Richardson, and Jo Jones. Young played clarinet as well as tenor in these sessions. Young is described as playing the clarinet in a "liquid, nervous style." As well as the Kansas City Sessions, his clarinet work from 1938-39 is documented on recordings with Basie, Billie Holiday, Basie small groups, and the organist Glenn Hardman. Billie and Lester met at a Harlem jam session in the early 30s and worked together in the Count Basie band and in nightclubs on New York's 52nd St. At one point Lester moved into the apartment Billie shared with her mother, Sadie Fagan. Holiday always insisted their relationship was strictly platonic. She gave Lester the nickname "Prez" after President Franklin Roosevelt, the "greatest man around" in Billie's mind. Playing on her name, he would call her "Lady Day." Their famously empathetic classic recordings with Teddy Wilson date from this era. After Young's clarinet was stolen in 1939, he abandoned the instrument until about 1957. That year Norman Granz gave him one and urged him to play it (with far different results at that stage in Young's life--see below). Question: What other bands was Billie in? Answer:

Billie Holiday, also known as Lady Day, was a famous jazz singer who performed with various bands throughout her career. Some of the bands and orchestras she was in include: 1. The Benny Goodman Orchestra 2. Teddy Wilson and His Orchestra 3. The Artie Shaw Orchestra 4. Count Basie's Orchestra 5. The Eddie Heywood Orchestra 6. The Louis Armstrong Orchestra She also collaborated with many other musicians like Lester Young, who called her Lady Day, and they made popular recordings together. Billie Holiday is remembered for her unique voice and ability to express emotions through her songs.

Robert Erwin, president of Biosource, called Plant Genetic's approach ``interesting'' and ``novel,'' and ``complementary rather than competitive.'' ``There is a large market out there hungry for hybrid seeds,'' he said. Mr. Robinson of Delta & Pine, the seed producer in Scott, Miss., said Plant Genetic's success in creating genetically engineered male steriles doesn't automatically mean it would be simple to create hybrids in all crops. Can we draw the following conclusion? it would be simple to create hybrids in all crops

Alright buddy, let me explain this to you. So, there are these big important people who work with plants and seeds. They try to make plants better by mixing them together (like a superhero team-up). They call these mixed plants "hybrids." But, creating hybrids is not always easy. So, someone did something pretty cool and new to help with this. Imagine like they found a way to make some plants wear a special cape that would help to create the hybrids. Now, some important people said this new thing is interesting and can help a lot. But, it doesn't mean all plants can wear that cape and become hybrids super easily. There's still work to be done and we need to learn more! So, no, we can't say that it would be simple to create hybrids in all crops.

Summarize: The horn-like instruments are expected to appear at UK sports arenas following their impact in South Africa. However, officials say they will not be allowed at the Millennium Stadium, the Swalec cricket stadium or football matches at Cardiff City Stadium. The vuvuzelas have divided fans, who seem to either love or hate the noise. Gerry Toms, stadium manager at the Millennium Stadium, said: "Air horns are already banned for all our rugby and football matches and we're now extending that to the vuvuzela. "It's the singing and the roar of the crowd you'll hear at the Millennium Stadium and we're taking this small step to ensure that this tradition survives long into the future." Mr Toms said not only would the atmosphere suffer, but the instrument would not meet UK health and safety standards with the decibel level above the acceptable standard. Cardiff City FC fans will also be unable to take vuvuzelas to home games because the club already bans all musical instruments and has done for several seasons. Glamorgan chief executive Alan Hamer said cricket fans already created a great atmosphere at the Swalec Stadium. "We don't need the added noise to create an atmosphere in the Swalec Stadium as we have such a fantastic ambience, our Welsh support are typically vocal in song for our domestic games, as I'm sure the supporters will be at our England v Australia international on Thursday," he said. Richard Thomas, of Cardiff & Co, which promotes the city, said there was nothing more rousing for a team than hearing the collective voices of thousands of fans singing traditional hymns and arias. "As a Welshman, I can testify at first hand how that feels - the hairs standing upright on the back of the neck," he said. "The singing generates the passion and the atmosphere or the 'hwyl' as we say in Wales. "I'm not surprised that the Welsh capital city has taken this decision. Vuvuzela or Bread of Heaven? - no contest really." A spokesman for football's Premier League said on Wednesday it was up to individual clubs to decide their own policy. Cardiff Blues, the regional rugby team who play at the Cardiff City Stadium, said they had not taken a decision either way about vuvuzelas, which have been popular at sporting events in South Africa since the early 1990s.

In the UK, some places like the Millennium Stadium don't want to allow vuvuzelas, which are loud horn-like things from South Africa, to come to games because they might be too loud for people's ears and they want to keep their own traditions of singing and cheering. Some other teams and stadiums are still thinking about whether to allow vuvuzelas or not, but many people believe that the voices of fans singing together is much better for the games.
