Problem: The structure, also known as the sphere and the golf ball, has been a feature of the north Caithness coast for almost 60 years.
The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) has recommended that the DFR be decontaminated by 2022 so it can then be demolished.
There were previous plans to retain the dome.
Historic Scotland had considered listing the building so that it would be conserved.
In 2007, Dounreay Site Restoration Limited (DSRL), the company that manages the site, released the results of public consultation on future uses for the dome.
Suggestions included turning it into a hotel, museum and even a nightclub.
However, because the structure is contaminated with low levels of radioactivity and due to high maintenance costs, it was decided to demolish it.
In 2011, plans to repaint the dome at a cost of £500,000 were cancelled.
The repaint had been done every 10 years to protect the dome's metal work.
DSRL said that following an assessment the steel was deemed thick enough to last as a protection until the reactor inside was dismantled.
The year 2022 is among planned "milestones" in the NDA's latest annual business plan for DSRL.
The bulk of the plan sets out targets for the next 12 months of the wider programme to clean up and demolish Dounreay, a former experimental nuclear power site.
The dome is one of the most recognised features of Dounreay.
In the 1950s, a sphere was considered to be the best shape of structure to contain a gases from the reactor, if there was a breach.
The sphere is made up of plates of steel that were welded into the shape of a sphere.
In the 1960s, it featured in a series of special edition stamps promoting Britain's "white heat of technology".

Problem: Manchester coroner Nigel Meadows heard claims officers fear retribution if their identities are revealed at an inquest next year.
Five officers want to give their evidence anonymously at the inquest of Jordan Lee Begley, who died after police used a stun gun in July 2013.
But their request has been challenged by four news organisations.
Mr Meadows reserved his decision, which is expected before the Christmas break.
Ice cream factory worker Mr Begley, 23, died two hours after being shot at his home in Gorton, Manchester, with a Taser gun on 10 July 2013.
An interim order means the officers are currently identified only as PCs D14, J1, H4 and H1 - who were involved in restraining Mr Begley - and E21, who fired the Taser.
On Monday, lawyers from the Press Association, The Guardian, Associated Newspapers and ITV told the pre-inquest hearing the fears were unsubstantiated "assertions".
The coroner also heard a report by Supt Leor Giladi which said the firearms officers "would be vulnerable to reprisal and attack".
He added: "Members of the organised criminal fraternity had put up a substantial reward of £50,000 for anyone that kills a GMP firearms officer."
Ben Brandon, representing the officers, said naming would "severely hinder" their covert operations.
But Caoilfhionn Gallagher, representing the media, and Mike Dodd, the Press Association's legal editor, said the ban was "a major derogation from the open justice principle" and interferes with the right to freely report matters of public interest.
Peter Edwards, representing the Begley family, said they wanted a "completely open and transparent" process, adding the officers made "some fairly bold assumptions without any evidence".
GMP's lawyers backed the anonymity order but the Independent Police Complaints Commission opposed it.
Marc Willems, counsel to the inquest, said: "There's obvious disquiet within sections of the community that the justice system appears to give greater protection to the police than normal civilians and individuals."

Problem: Although the Bluebirds are sixth in the Championship, their last two crowds of 13,763 and 13,715 are their lowest in the league since moving to Cardiff City Stadium in 2009.
The manager, however, is confident supporters will return if his team mount a promotion challenge.
"Fans want to see a winning team," Slade said.
"We've made a decent start, we need to build on that start and keep progressing.
"Of course you want more and more numbers to come and watch your team and I'm sure in time, if we continue to progress, they will be there."
Cardiff attracted an average crowd of 21,123 last season, while the figure was 27,429 when they were in the Premier League in the 2013-14 campaign.
Cardiff City Stadium was expanded to a capacity of 33,280 in 2014 but, as attendances dropped towards the end of last season, the Bluebirds decided to close the expanded section for this campaign, reducing the capacity to 27,978.
Although Cardiff returned to their traditional blue kit in January, some fans have boycotted the club following the controversial red rebrand in 2012.
"There are certain factors I can't control. My thought has been on picking the side," said Slade.
"I think we're playing a decent brand of football. I'm sure they'll come back if we can maintain it."
Cardiff visit the Championship's bottom club Rotherham on Saturday, with the Bluebirds aiming to recover from a first defeat of the season against Hull on Tuesday.
Slade selected the same team for a fourth successive game against the Tigers and admits players currently out of the first team are frustrated.
One in particular is midfielder Aron Gunnarsson, who made 45 league appearances last season but has not started a Championship match in this campaign.
Gunnarsson is the captain of Iceland and, with his country having qualified for Euro 2016, Slade is mindful of the 26-year-old's desire to force his way back into the team in time for next summer's tournament.
"The relationship I have with all the players is that my room is open, and I think that's a good thing because they know they can knock on my door," said the former Leyton Orient manager.
"Gunnar's been in and we've had a chat, but many others have been in and we've had a chat. I think that's healthy.
"In any successful team, it's down to that group rather than the XI. It's important they're part of it and, of course, they will play their part."

Painting has continued to be a prominent form of artistic expression in Danish culture, inspired by and also influencing major international trends in this area. These include impressionism and the modernist styles of expressionism, abstract painting and surrealism. While international co-operation and activity has almost always been essential to the Danish artistic community, influential art collectives with a firm Danish base includes De Tretten (1909–1912), Linien (1930s and 1940s), COBRA (avant-garde movement) (1948–51), Fluxus (1960s and 1970s), Junge Wilde (1980s) and more recently Superflex (founded in 1993). Most Danish painters of modern times have also been very active with other forms of artistic expressions, such as sculpting, ceramics, art installations, activism, film and experimental architecture. Notable Danish painters from modern times representing various art movements include Theodor Philipsen (1840–1920, impressionism and naturalism), Anna Klindt Sørensen (1899–1985, expressionism), Franciska Clausen (1899–1986, Neue Sachlichkeit, cubism, surrealism and others), Henry Heerup (1907–1993, naivism), Robert Jacobsen (1912–1993, abstract painting), Carl Henning Pedersen (1913–2007, abstract painting), Asger Jorn (1914–1973, Situationist, abstract painting), Bjørn Wiinblad (1918–2006, art deco, orientalism), Per Kirkeby (b. 1938, neo-expressionism, abstract painting), Per Arnoldi (b. 1941, pop art), Michael Kvium (b. 1955, neo-surrealism) and Simone Aaberg Kærn (b. 1969, superrealism).

Write an article based on this summary:
– It's been a tumultuous week on the Tillerson-Trump front, with the secretary of state forced to hold a presser to address rumors he'd once nearly resigned (he denied that) and that he'd called the president a moron (he didn't say either way, though a spokeswoman later denied it for him). Some say his remarks only worsened things between him and Trump, and whispers continue to point in a southerly direction. Sources tell NBC News that before his trip to pay his respects to the Las Vegas shooting victims, Trump "fumed" and vented to chief of staff John Kelly for two hours after seeing the NBC report early Wednesday about Tillerson's alleged comments. Those sources also reveal Kelly postponed travel plans that day to "try to contain his boss's fury," meeting quietly with Tillerson and defense chief James Mattis to try to figure out a blueprint for going forward. When Tillerson didn't deny at the presser he'd called the president a moron, Trump was said to be further angered. Sources also tell CNN Trump had known about the insult before the NBC report, but was infuriated it had leaked. Axios reports what may come next: a new secretary of state in the form of CIA Director Mike Pompeo. Trump advisors are said to be mulling this idea, though sources say Trump knows another top-level person leaving his administration at this point will get bad press. Axios adds Pompeo could likely "make the switch without chaos"—he's a person Trump trusts—and that sources do think the Tillerson-Trump relationship is too "toxic" to fix. Esquire notes Trump's cryptic "calm before the storm" comment made Thursday during a gathering of military bigwigs may have been a reference to Tillerson's farewell, though it also could have meant almost anything else as well. | On this week's episode of So You Think You Can President? we're left with a cliffhanger. President Trump held a get-together of top military brass at the White House Thursday night, and his aides summoned the White House press corps to document it. Little did the reporters know that they were about to watch a teaser for next week's episode of our national reality show. Ever the showman, our president (nothing but respect) told them to stay tuned, because you're about to find out what happens next!

Wow! The producers are really going all-in on this season. Great ratings. While you just never know with this unconventional commander-in-chief, the military display could be a hint. Will the season finale involve nuclear war with North Korea? That seems more likely than ever. President "We'll See" is on the outs with his Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, who reportedly called him a "fucking moron"—presumably in part because, as Tillerson was feverishly working the channels with North Korean officials to talk them off the ledge, Trump tweeted telling him not to bother. Maybe that has something to do with the president's anger that his SecState was "freelancing" as he tried to prevent nuclear holocaust.

But let's pretend for a moment that, in 2017, the worst-case scenario for the season finale is avoidable. Maybe we'll just see another Friday Defenestration today, as the rumors swirl that Trump "seethed" about all the facetime Tillerson is getting on cable news and might replace him with CIA Director Mike Pompeo. Maybe the president will tear up the Iran Deal—another point of disagreement with Tillerson—with no alternative plan to prevent the rise of another hostile nuclear power. Or maybe the finale will include new developments on Chief of Staff John Kelly, whose phone, we learned yesterday, may have been compromised by hackers, perhaps on behalf of a foreign government.
Maybe the president will formally announce that his administration is rolling back the requirement that employers provide employees with health insurance that covers birth control. Nothing says "I want to prevent abortions" like making contraceptives less accessible while making it rain Viagra. Or maybe he will confirm publicly that his administration is, in diverse and multifarious ways, attempting to undermine the Affordable Care Act and facilitate its failure now that the Republican Party has failed in its various Repeal and Go Fuck Yourself bills. Speaking of health, the president just tapped a coal industry lobbyist to be the number two official at the Environmental Protection Agency.
Or maybe we'll get a further update on Steven "Deadeye" Mnuchin, the Treasury Secretary who is increasingly the favorite to be Top Gun now that Flyin' Tom Price has jetted off into the sunset. The New York Times explored the Mnooch's extensive travel schedule in further detail yesterday. Like that of Price, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, and EPA-hating EPA chief Scott Pruitt, that schedule involves a lot of time on private jets and military aircraft at taxpayer expense.
All this happened in the last 24 hours. The producers might be overshooting the mark—this reality show just isn't realistic. ||||| Washington (CNN) Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, the stone-faced former oil executive Donald Trump tapped to serve as his global envoy, is increasingly seen by administration officials and diplomats as on his way out -- just as flash-points from Iran to North Korea flare.
The impression that Tillerson's days as Trump's top diplomat are numbered was fueled this week by new reports of acrimony between the two men -- principally, that Tillerson had questioned Trump's intelligence to other top officials.
The episode prompted deep frustration from the President, who fumed that a supposed underling was insulting him to his cohorts. And it only seemed to cement his impression of Tillerson as a reluctant participant in Trump's foreign policy agenda, areas of which the two men have had public disagreements about.
More than a dozen sources inside the administration and in diplomatic circles describe the relationship between Tillerson and Trump as reaching a new low. The two men have failed to develop the type of close relationship that Trump enjoys with other members of his Cabinet. Radically different in personality, Tillerson and Trump have chafed at each other's perceived slights.
Tillerson has told friends he intends to remain in his post for at least a year, a psychological deadline that would allow him -- in his own mind -- to depart with dignity. But irritation with his boss, paired with frustration at the entrenched ways of Washington, have led him to waver at times.
There were indications this week that Tillerson would remain in his job for now, including public displays of support from Trump. A source familiar with the turmoil surrounding Tillerson says there is "no indication" the secretary's job is in jeopardy, at least not immediately.
This source said Tillerson remains focused on his job. "That's where his head is," the source said.
At the White House Friday, Trump's press secretary said the President retained confidence in Tillerson, despite the growing sense in Washington that his days are numbered.
"Nothing has changed despite what you may read in the media or watch on TV," she said.
But few believe Tillerson will remain at the State Department for long.
'Moron'

This week, Tillerson insisted in public that he's never considered leaving the administration, and vowed to remain in his post "for as long as the President feels I can be useful to achieving his objectives."
Trump, however, has expressed frustration that Tillerson is stymieing aspects of his agenda. Trump grew furious on Wednesday when early morning news reports emerged that Tillerson had called him a "moron" during a meeting about Afghanistan over the summer. The public airing of the insult deeply angered the President, who vented on Twitter that the story amounted to "fake news."
Multiple sources told CNN that Trump was aware that Tillerson had used the word to describe him before the public report emerged, though it wasn't clear when he first learned of it. Having the information leaked, however, enraged him.
Early Wednesday, Tillerson spoke with Trump's chief of staff John Kelly by phone as the story aired on morning television. Both agreed that Tillerson should deliver a statement refuting aspects of the report, which also said he had considered resigning from his post.
Tillerson delivered a set of remarks that adamantly denied he'd ever considered leaving the administration, and offered effusive praise for Trump's foreign policy objectives.
"There's never been a consideration in my mind to leave," Tillerson said from the State Department Treaty Room.
But he did not deny calling Trump a "moron" when asked directly. Later, the State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert said Tillerson told her he'd never used that language to describe the President.
After delivering his mid-morning statement, the secretary of state met at the White House with Kelly, who had remained behind in Washington as Trump flew cross-country to console survivors of Sunday's mass shooting in Las Vegas . The President viewed the statement from Air Force One and later, inside a hospital trauma center, insisted he remained confident in his top diplomat.
"Total confidence in Rex. I have total confidence," he said. He called the reports about Tillerson's "moron" comment "totally phony."
'Chaos'

Speaking on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, the leading Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee identified Tillerson and Kelly -- along with Defense Secretary James Mattis -- as critical members of the administration preventing the country from falling into disarray.
"I think Secretary Tillerson, Secretary Mattis and chief of staff Kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos, and I support them very much," Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, said, adding Tillerson doesn't appear to have the full support of the President.
"I deal with people throughout the administration and (Tillerson), from my perspective, is in an incredibly frustrating place," Corker said.
Kelly and Tillerson have enjoyed a close relationship since the former Marine general took his post as chief of staff over the summer. Tillerson, who has long felt unsure in his role within the administration, gained a new sense of security with Kelly inside the White House, according to a person familiar with his thinking.
...Save your energy Rex, we'll do what has to be done! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 1, 2017
But he has continued to bristle amid differences with the White House. Last week, Trump undercut his position on talks with North Korea after Tillerson said in Beijing that the US has direct channels of communication with Pyongyang. Trump said on Twitter that Tillerson was "wasting him time." Differences also persist between the two men on the Iran nuclear deal, which Trump vowed to scrap as a candidate.
Trump, according to people familiar with the dynamic, has grown resentful of Tillerson's differing stances on those policy issues, believing his secretary of state to be overly dismissive at times.
At the same time, Trump's inner-circle, led by Kelly, has discouraged any further staff shakeups after a tumultuous eight months in office.
Trump is said to be cognizant that his administration and inner West Wing operation are shedding staff at an alarming clip. Trump has either dismissed or seen quit a chief of staff, national security adviser, press secretary, two communications directors, chief strategist, acting attorney general, FBI director and a Health and Human Services Secretary.
Trump, above all, wants to project a sense of competence and believes the rapid turnover of staff helps fuel the notion his administration is in chaos, according to a person familiar with his thinking.
CNN's Jim Acosta contributed to this report. ||||| Trump advisors and allies are floating the idea of replacing Secretary of State Rex Tillerson with CIA director Mike Pompeo, age 53 — someone who's already around the table in the Situation Room, and could make the switch without chaos.

Sources tell us Trump recognizes that a Cabinet shuffle would bring bad press. White House Chief of Staff John Kelly wants stability, and so is discouraging high-level departures before next year.
And yet, insiders say Trump's relationship with Tillerson is broken beyond repair. We're told Trump was furious that Tillerson didn't try to blunt the story about him calling the president a "moron," by just going out and denying it (whether or not it actually occurred).
After what Trump considered a strong trip to Vegas, he seethed when he got back and saw Tillerson's gaffe dominating cable-news coverage. Everywhere he flipped, there was Tillerson's face instead of his.

WASHINGTON — John Kelly, the White House chief of staff, abruptly scrapped plans to travel with President Donald Trump on Wednesday so he could try to contain his boss’s fury and manage the fallout from new revelations about tensions between the president and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, according to six senior administration officials.
Kelly summoned Tillerson, and their ally Defense Secretary James Mattis, to the White House, where the three of them huddled to discuss a path forward, according to three administration officials. The White House downplayed Kelly's decision to stay in Washington, saying he did so to manage day-to-day operations.
Vice President Mike Pence, meanwhile, was fuming in Phoenix, where he was traveling, seven officials told NBC News. He and Tillerson spoke on the phone before the secretary’s public appearance on Wednesday morning.

Pence was incensed upon learning from the NBC report that Tillerson’s top spokesman had said he once privately questioned the value of Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Officials said the spokesman, R.C. Hammond, fabricated an anecdote that Pence had asked Tillerson in a meeting whether Haley, who is seen as a possible successor to Tillerson, is helpful or harmful to the administration.
NBC reported Wednesday that Tillerson had threatened to resign in July after a series of clashes with the president, at one point venting his frustrations among his colleagues by calling the president a "moron," according to multiple senior administration officials who were aware of the matter at the time.
Four senior administration officials said Trump first learned on Wednesday that Tillerson had disparaged him after a July 20 national security meeting at the Pentagon. Trump vented to Kelly Wednesday morning, leading Kelly to scrap plans to travel with the president to Las Vegas to meet with victims and first responders in Sunday’s mass shooting.
Trump was furious when he saw the NBC News report, which was published shortly before 6 a.m. Wednesday.

For the next two hours the president fumed inside the White House, venting to Kelly, officials said.
He left for Las Vegas shortly after 8 a.m., 20 minutes behind schedule.
Tillerson scrambled to pull together a statement, while his spokesman publicly apologized for his comments about Pence and Haley, saying he “spoke out of line about conversations I wasn’t privy to.”
Tillerson delivered a statement praising Trump and insisting he never considered resigning, but it’s what he didn’t say that further enraged Trump, officials said.
The secretary’s refusal to deny that he had called the president a “moron” in his opening statement and in his responses to questions from reporters stoked Trump’s anger and widened the rift between the two men, officials said.
After watching the secretary’s response Wednesday, one White House official said, “When Tillerson didn’t deny it, I assumed it was true.”
Hammond is seen by the White House, particularly Pence’s office, as untrustworthy, officials said. It’s unclear if he will remain in his post, according to three administration officials.
Pence was "very annoyed anyone would misrepresent anything he said, particularly in private meetings," one White House official said.
On Wednesday, this source said, White House officials spoke to State Department officials to make it clear that Hammond’s comment was “false” and needed to be corrected.
The revelations followed Trump’s frustrations over the weekend after Tillerson said the U.S. would talk to North Korea.
State Department officials tried to reach Tillerson on his government aircraft during his flight from Beijing to Japan, but they couldn’t reach him, sources said. The secretary and his team didn’t want to issue a clarification, further stoking tensions with the White House, an administration official said.
Trump took to Twitter, telling Tillerson not to waste his time trying to negotiate with the North Korean regime.

QUES: Ptolemy's Geography divided Asia on a similar basis. In the north is "Scythia this side of the Himalayas" and "Scythia beyond the Himalayas." To the south is "India on this side of the Ganges" and "India beyond the Ganges." Asia began on the coast of Anatolia ("land of the rising sun"). Beyond the Ganges and Himalayas (including the Tien Shan) were Serica and Serae (sections of China) and some other identifiable far eastern locations known to the voyagers and geographers but not to the general European public.

Input: Read this: The origins of the department store lay in the growth of the conspicuous consumer society at the turn of the 19th century. As the Industrial Revolution accelerated economy expansion, the affluent middle-class grew in size and wealth. This urbanized social group, sharing a culture of consumption and changing fashion, was the catalyst for the retail revolution. As rising prosperity and social mobility increased the number of people, especially women (who found they could shop unaccompanied at department stores without damaging their reputation), with disposable income in the late Georgian period, window shopping was transformed into a leisure activity and entrepreneurs, like the potter Josiah Wedgwood, pioneered the use of marketing techniques to influence the prevailing tastes and preferences of society.

Problem: Write an article based on this "Eight Britons who believe their disabilities were caused by Thalidomide have launched legal action against the drug's manufacturer and distributor."
Article:
A: The BBC has seen court documents in which the eight, who have a range of disabilities, are claiming damages.
Some of them were rejected by a scheme set up by distributor Distillers which compensated 460 UK survivors in 1973.
The anti-morning sickness drug caused babies to be born with limb defects and damaged eyes, ears and internal organs.
Law firm Slater and Gordon, which is acting for the eight, said papers had been filed at the High Court on behalf of eight people whose mothers took the drug while pregnant.
The claimants are suing Grunenthal, which manufactured the drug, and Diageo Scotland which now owns Distillers.
Fraser Whitehead, lawyer at Slater and Gordon, said: "Grunenthal and Distillers have always claimed that the Thalidomide disaster was an unavoidable tragedy and that they did everything expected of drug companies at the time. Our research has demonstrated that is nonsense.
"Both companies knew their drug was causing severe nerve damage and both were explicitly warned of the possibility Thalidomide might cause severe malformations. Yet the drug was left on the market for many months afterwards.
"It is time those responsible are finally held to account for the mistakes of the past. Grunenthal, in particular, has done little make good the immense damage that it has done and it has to accept responsibility for those affected in the UK."
One of the claimants, Brian Davies, 53, from Gwynedd, said he was previously refused compensation because his arms were not affected.
He said: "It's a disgrace that so many people have been denied justice in this way."
Thalidomide was frequently used to treat morning sickness in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
When it was withdrawn in late 1961 more than 10,000 babies worldwide had been born with disabilities and only about half of them survived.
A Grunenthal spokesman said: "Grunenthal confirms that the company received an email from Slater and Gordon... announcing that they have been instructed to bring proceedings on behalf of eight claimants.
"Grunenthal has not seen the claims to which they refer and is, therefore, not in a position to comment further."
Diageo said it "takes any matter relating to Thalidomide-injured people very seriously and has a long track record of doing the right thing".
Last year Diageo paid 89 million Australian dollars ($81m, £49m) to more than 100 Australians who suffered birth defects caused by the drug, in a settlement that led to a claim against Grunenthal being dropped.
Problem: Write an article based on this "England's Champions Trophy hopes were ended by an eight-wicket semi-final thrashing at the hands of Pakistan in Cardiff."
Article:
A: Media playback is not supported on this device
England struggled on a slow pitch against some brilliant Pakistan bowling and fielding, mustering only 211.
Fakhar Zaman's 57 launched Pakistan's chase, while Azhar Ali made 76 as victory was sealed with 12.5 overs to spare.
Pakistan will play India or Bangladesh in Sunday's final at The Oval.
England move on to a Twenty20 series against South Africa next week, but the disappointment of this defeat could linger for some time.
Eoin Morgan's men were favourites to win the tournament, but were comprehensively outplayed in the Welsh sunshine in front of a crowd full of noisy and energetic Pakistan supporters.
While England eased to the semis through some wonderful all-round displays, Pakistan had to recover from an opening-game hammering by India and only scraped into the last four with a thrilling defeat of Sri Lanka on Monday.
However, it was Pakistan who better adjusted to the used, worn surface, stifling England's much-vaunted batting line-up. The hosts could manage only seven fours in their final 30 overs and not a single six throughout.
In contrast, Pakistan plundered runs freely against an attack that offered too many opportunities to score. England may point to conditions that did not suit them, but the margin of the defeat shows that is no excuse.
This was an outstanding opportunity for England to win their first global 50-over trophy, ended by the team that beat them in 1992 World Cup final.
Media playback is not supported on this device
Midway through the England innings, the game was delicately poised. The hosts had reached 118-2 with Morgan and Test captain Joe Root at the crease.
From there, though, Pakistan were imperious. Led by pace bowler Hasan Ali, who took 3-35, and backed up by some tigerish fielding that improved after Jonny Bairstow (43) was dropped twice, Sarfraz Ahmed's team squeezed the host nation.
Root was caught behind off 18-year-old leg-spinner Shadab Khan for a busy 46 and Morgan played a loose waft to edge Hasan and depart for 33.
It began a regular fall of wickets around Ben Stokes, who failed to find the boundary in a 64-ball 34.
Moeen Ali was brilliantly caught at deep square leg by Fakhar, Adil Rashid was run out by sub fielder Ahmed Shehzad's direct hit and, when Mark Wood was run out attempting a single to wicketkeeper Sarfraz, it completed a collapse of eight wickets for 83 runs.
England's hopes rested on taking early wickets, but they were punctured by the strokeplay of Fakhar, who threw everything at the new ball.
Facing a barrage of short deliveries, left-hander Fakhar was hit on the head by Wood, but also caused chaos with pulls to the boundary and a top edge over wicketkeeper Jos Buttler's head for six.
He shared 118 with Azhar before being stumped off Rashid, leaving Azhar to snuff out any hopes of an England revival in a stand of 55 with Babar Azam.
Although Azhar was bowled by Jake Ball, Babar and Mohammad Hafeez accelerated towards the finish line. England were well beaten long before Hafeez pulled Stokes for the winning boundary.
England captain Eoin Morgan: "The fact we've produced brilliant performances in this tournament and then play like that on this wicket is extremely disappointing."
"We were the only unbeaten side in the tournament in what was a very tough group and we did it our way.
"We played really positive smart cricket, so there are some big positives to take."
England coach Trevor Bayliss: "All credit to Pakistan today - they were too good for us. Our bowlers probably tried to chase the wickets too much and served up too many half-volleys.
"There's a number of our guys who haven't been at this level before and it is a learning curve.
"Finishing third or fourth, I think that's about right where we sit in world cricket at the moment. We've got a long way to go until we reach the level we want to get to and a level I believe we're good enough to get to."
Injured England bowler Chris Woakes on Test Match Special: "Pakistan opted to bowl first, which we all thought was the wrong decision as we thought the pitch would deteriorate and become harder to score on.
"England got stuck in the middle period after starting well, then were well set at 100-2. But we lost our way in the middle period. When the ball got older it looked harder to bat and we struggled to gain momentum.
"Pakistan have played the perfect game - they're peaking at the perfect time."
Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed: "Credit goes to the bowlers and the batters, who finished it very well.
"We adapted to conditions. We knew if we restrict them we could easily chase it down.
"Every game is a knockout game and I told my boys to play their game and not worry about the result."
Problem: Write an article based on this "The growth of personal borrowing in the UK stalled slightly in December, the latest Bank of England figures show."
Article:
A: | Outstanding personal debt rose by just £1bn that month, the smallest monthly increase since May 2015, to £193bn.
That left the annual growth rate of the UK's personal debt mountain, which covers credit cards and other non-mortgage loans, steady at 10.6% a year.
The Governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney, recently warned that personal borrowing was rising too fast.
In November he said: "We are going to remain vigilant around the issue, because we have seen this shift [in borrowing]".
The amount of outstanding personal debt, excluding mortgages, rose that month to £192bn, which was the highest level since December 2008.
Of the Bank's latest figures, Martin Beck, senior economic advisor to the Ernst & Young ITEM Club, said: "We think it unlikely that this represents the start of a steep downturn, although demand for unsecured lending is likely to ebb this year, as household finances come under increasing pressure."
Other new Bank data suggests that the UK property market will be steady in the coming months.
The number of new mortgages approved for home buyers, but not yet lent, was steady in December at just under 68,000.
That was the highest monthly figure since March last year.
Meanwhile the recovery of corporate borrowing in the UK appears to have stalled.
The amount of money owed by non-financial businesses to their lenders fell slightly in December, for the second month in a row, to £449bn.
The contraction of this sort of borrowing after the 2008 financial crisis was one factor which prompted the Bank of England to launch its policy of quantitative easing in 2009, to encourage companies to borrow and spend and to help bring the economy out of recession.
With commercial banks forced by the authorities at the same time to restrain their lending and clean up huge bad debts, it took a long time for corporate borrowing in the UK to recover.
The Bank's figures show that the outstanding debt owed by non-financial businesses fell steadily, from £522bn in April 2011 to £428bn just over four years later in June 2015.
It then revived in 2016, rising to £453bn last October - the highest such figure for three years - before falling back again in November and then December. | Flan2021 | huggingface:xsum | fs_noopt |

Susan Seidelman seems to have had a decent career with a few top notch credits under her belt. I'm certainly glad she bounced back from this film which seems to have its admirers. I'm not one of them.
I've seen better acting in high school plays than I did in Smithereens. The plot such as it is involved young Susan Berman who is ambitious to make it in the world of music and is willing to do just about anything to get there. She even rejects the sincere advances of a young artist who is living out of his van off the East River played by Brad Rijn.
Young Mr. Rijn contributes the worst performance in the film, in fact one of the worst acting jobs I've seen in a long time. No wonder he's not gone anywhere.
I will say that Seidelman's eye for the camera is a good one in capturing the familiar East Village locations where the film was mostly shot. But her work with her live performers didn't measure up. I'm not sure she had that much raw material to work with.
Look fast and you'll see a very young Christopher Noth before Law and Order and Sex in the City as a street hustler.

But I think it is certain that most of the early Christians understood these words of our Lord's ascension and coming again in glory. They believed that He was coming again in a very little while during their own life-time, in a few months or years, to make an end of the world and to judge the quick and the dead. And as they waited for His coming, one generation after another, and yet He did not come, a sadness fell upon them. Christ seemed to have left the world. The little while that He had promised to be away seemed to have become a very long while. Hundreds of years passed, and yet Christ did not come in glory. And, as I said, a sadness fell on all the Church. Surely, they said, this is the time of which Christ said we were to weep and lament till we saw Him again--this is the time of which He said that the bridegroom should be taken from us, and we should fast in those days. And they did fast, and weep, and lament; and their religion became a very sad and melancholy one--most sad in those who were most holy, and loved their Lord best, and longed most for His coming in glory.

Problem: Cubism:
Historians have divided the history of Cubism into phases. In one scheme, the first phase of Cubism, known as Analytic Cubism, a phrase coined by Juan Gris a posteriori, was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1910 and 1912 in France. A second phase, Synthetic Cubism, remained vital until around 1919, when the Surrealist movement gained popularity. English art historian Douglas Cooper proposed another scheme, describing three phases of Cubism in his book, The Cubist Epoch. According to Cooper there was "Early Cubism", (from 1906 to 1908) when the movement was initially developed in the studios of Picasso and Braque; the second phase being called "High Cubism", (from 1909 to 1914) during which time Juan Gris emerged as an important exponent (after 1911); and finally Cooper referred to "Late Cubism" (from 1914 to 1921) as the last phase of Cubism as a radical avant-garde movement. Douglas Cooper's restrictive use of these terms to distinguish the work of Braque, Picasso, Gris (from 1911) and Léger (to a lesser extent) implied an intentional value judgement.
From what years did High Cubism take place?

A: 1909 to 1914

In New Jersey and Illinois, all death row inmates had their sentences commuted to life in prison without parole when the death penalty repeal bills were signed into law. In Maryland, Governor Martin O'Malley commuted the state's four remaining death sentences to life in prison without parole in January 2015. While the bill repealing capital punishment in Connecticut was not retroactive, the Connecticut Supreme Court ruled in 2015 in State v. Santiago that the legislature's decision to prospectively abolish capital punishment rendered it an offense to "evolving standards of decency," thus commuting the sentences of the 11 men remaining on death row to life in prison without parole. New Mexico may yet execute two condemned inmates sentenced prior to abolition, and Nebraska has ten death row inmates who may still be executed despite abolition.
Who was governor of Maryland in January 2005?

Context and question: Although the Tories were dismissed from office for half a century, for most of this period (at first under the leadership of Sir William Wyndham), the Tories retained party cohesion, with occasional hopes of regaining office, particularly at the accession of George II (1727) and the downfall of the ministry of Sir Robert Walpole in 1742. They acted as a united, though unavailing, opposition to Whig corruption and scandals. At times they cooperated with the "Opposition Whigs", Whigs who were in opposition to the Whig government; however, the ideological gap between the Tories and the Opposition Whigs prevented them from coalescing as a single party. They finally regained power with the accession of George III in 1760 under Lord Bute.
For how long was Lord Bute dismissed from office?

Question: Mill's empiricism thus held that knowledge of any kind is not from direct experience but an inductive inference from direct experience. The problems other philosophers have had with Mill's position center around the following issues: Firstly, Mill's formulation encounters difficulty when it describes what direct experience is by differentiating only between actual and possible sensations. This misses some key discussion concerning conditions under which such "groups of permanent possibilities of sensation" might exist in the first place. Berkeley put God in that gap; the phenomenalists, including Mill, essentially left the question unanswered. In the end, lacking an acknowledgement of an aspect of "reality" that goes beyond mere "possibilities of sensation", such a position leads to a version of subjective idealism. Questions of how floor beams continue to support a floor while unobserved, how trees continue to grow while unobserved and untouched by human hands, etc., remain unanswered, and perhaps unanswerable in these terms. Secondly, Mill's formulation leaves open the unsettling possibility that the "gap-filling entities are purely possibilities and not actualities at all". Thirdly, Mill's position, by calling mathematics merely another species of inductive inference, misapprehends mathematics. It fails to fully consider the structure and method of mathematical science, the products of which are arrived at through an internally consistent deductive set of procedures which do not, either today or at the time Mill wrote, fall under the agreed meaning of induction.

QUES: By the mid 18th century, the movement broadened to incorporate a greater range of Classical influences, including those from Ancient Greece. The shift to neoclassical architecture is conventionally dated to the 1750s. It first gained influence in England and France; in England, Sir William Hamilton's excavations at Pompeii and other sites, the influence of the Grand Tour and the work of William Chambers and Robert Adam, was pivotal in this regard. In France, the movement was propelled by a generation of French art students trained in Rome, and was influenced by the writings of Johann Joachim Winckelmann. The style was also adopted by progressive circles in other countries such as Sweden and Russia.

Problem: A Florida man was denied bond Monday on a murder charge stemming from a weekend shooting that started with a complaint about loud music and ended with a teenager dead. A statement by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office described a Friday-night confrontation in a gas station parking lot that escalated into at least eight shots being fired at a car carrying a group of teenagers. Seventeen-year-old Jordan Davis, among the teens, was fatally wounded. Forty-five-year-old Michael Dunn of Brevard County, Florida, was arrested Saturday and charged in the fatal shooting. According to the statement from the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, Dunn told authorities that he had asked the teens to turn down loud music from their vehicle adjacent to his, as he waited while his girlfriend, who was returning with him from a wedding, went inside the gas station to make a purchase. Dunn told police he felt threatened by the response from the teens, the statement said. Dunn's attorney, Robin Lemonidis, told CNN Monday that Dunn told police that he reacted after having seen a gun barrel in the window of the teens' car and after hearing a profanity-laced string of threats against him and his girlfriend while the teens motioned they were opening the door. Lemonidis said that was when Dunn reached for his gun and opened fire on the vehicle. She added that, "When all the evidence has been flushed out, I believe that it will be extremely clear that Mr. Dunn acted as any responsible firearm owner would have under the same circumstances." Eight or nine shots were fired at the teens' car, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office statement added. There were no guns found inside the teens' car, the statement said. Lemonidis said her client and his girlfriend left the scene after the shooting, fearing that they had encountered gang members and that more would follow. The couple went to a local hotel for the night, and saw the news the next morning that Davis had died. They returned to Dunn's home in Brevard County, where local police arrested him Saturday on an out-of-county warrant. Dunn was arraigned Monday afternoon, and Lemonidis said she entered a not-guilty plea on her client's behalf. Ron Davis, the victim's father, told CNN affiliate WAWS that he wants to see justice, "Whether it be through the legal system or to God. God's going to punish him for that, so me, I don't want to do anything to him."

Answer: A 17-year-old is dead after a weekend shooting in a gas station parking lot. A Florida man is facing a murder charge. The suspect's attorney says her client reacted after he felt threatened by teens. The encounter began with the suspect complaining about the teens' loud music, police say.
Problem: By. Lizzie Edmonds. More than 500 male pupils and staff at a French high school are to undergo DNA tests after a 16-year-old-girl was raped - and police exhausted all other leads. The testing of 527 men at the private Fenelon-Notre Dame high school in La Rochelle, south west France, was ordered after the girl was attacked in the bathroom of the school last September. In a legal first in France, summonses went out last week to 475 teenage students, 31 teachers and 21 others - thought to be either staff or males who were on campus at the time. Students arrive at the Fenelon Notre-Dame College in La Rochelle, western France. 527 males associated with the school have been ordered to undergo DNA tests after a girl, 16, was raped on in a bathroom at the school. Testing began today and is expected to last until Wednesday. Prosecutor Isabelle Pagenelle said so far no one had refused the tests - but warned anyone who decided not to give a DNA sample would be considered a suspect and could be taken into custody. The prosecutor said: 'The choice is simple for me. Either I file it away and wait for a match in what could be several years, or I go looking for the match myself.' Pagenelle's office, which required. parental permission for minors, says it will discard any DNA results. from people who were eliminated as suspects. The assault took place on September 30 in the pitch black and the girl unable to identify the criminal. A police van outside the private school, which educates around 1,200 pupils. The move is a legal first in France - and testing, which began today, is due to last until Wednesday. Camera crews outside the school in La Rochelle. Summonses were put out to 475 pupils, 31 teachers and 21 others, thought to be either staff or other males at the school last week. The prosecutor added: ‘She was attacked from behind and in darkness, but a trace of DNA was found in the clothes of the young girl.’ Police recovered genetic material from the girl's clothing - but had no matches to it in the country's DNA database. The prestigious school has around 1,200 pupils - around half of which are boys. Chantal Devaux, the private Roman Catholic school's director, told French media: 'This happened during the school day in a confined space. 'The decision to take such a large sample was made because it was the only way to advance the investigation.' Devaux acknowledged all the results could still come back negative, sending investigators back to the drawing board. Pupils gather at the school gates. The girl, 16 was attacked in the pitch black in the bathroom last September - and so cannot identify the man. Headteacher of Fenelon Notre-Dame Chantal Devaux, right, Republic prosecutor of La Rochelle Isabelle Pagenelle, centre, and director of public safety Olivier Le Gouestre speak to journalists about the tests. In response, Pagenelle said: 'We think there is a strong probability that it's someone from inside, or at least someone who knows the building very well.' A male pupil today said the DNA tests were creating a ‘very uncomfortable atmosphere’. ‘It’s. the sense of suspicious which is the worst,’ he said. ‘Everybody has. their theories, but nobody really knows who the culprit is.’ Some 16 forensics specialists and other police officers were carrying out the tests, at a cost equivalent of some £4000. France has an extensive DNA database,. with a total of 2 million profiles on file as of 2012 - about 3 percent. of the population.

Write an article with the title: "Three guilty in bombing campaign plot"
Article: |
LONDON, England (CNN) -- Three men charged in an alleged plot to explode bombs on trans-Atlantic airliners bound for the United States and Canada were convicted Monday of conspiracy to murder.
Assad Sarwar, Tanvir Hussain and Abdulla Ali.
Abdulla Ali, Assad Sarwar and Tanvir Hussain, will be sentenced at a later date. The jury also found one man not guilty and failed to return verdicts on four others.
British prosecutors said the group planned a series of coordinated suicide attacks on planes bound for the United States and Canada in 2006.
The British Crown Prosecution Service said it was a plot -- involving liquid explosives hidden in soft drink bottles -- that could have been pulled off.
It led to new security measures at airports around the world limiting the amount of liquids passengers could take on flights.
British authorities said there was an assured al Qaeda link to the plot and called it "an ingenious plan to blow up aeroplanes with liquid explosives."
The men were arrested in August 2006 when police thought the plan was ready to be put into action.
Ali, Sarwar and Hussain, pleaded guilty last month to conspiring to cause explosions.
They said they were planning to detonate bombs at key sites as part of a political statement, not with the intent to kill anyone. They maintained that they were not guilty of plotting to blow up airliners over the Atlantic Ocean.
While the men were convicted of conspiracy to murder, the jury could not reach a verdict on their charges of endangering an aircraft.
During the trial, prosecutors showed the jury an experiment which they said showed that a soft drink-size bottle filled with the kind of liquid explosives the men allegedly planned to use could have brought down a plane in mid-flight.
"The jury found there was a conspiracy to murder involving at least three men but failed to reach a verdict on whether the ambit of the conspiracy to murder included the allegation that they intended to detonate IEDs (improvised explosive devices) on trans-Atlantic airliners in relation to seven of the men," the Crown Prosecution said in a statement.
The three defendants and two others also pleaded guilty to charges related to "martyrdom" videos discovered by police.
They denied the videos were testimonials before a suicide attack and said they intended to post the videos on the Internet as part of a publicity stunt.
The trial began at London's Woolwich Crown Court in early April and the jury began deliberating in late July.The jury failed to reach verdicts on four other defendants, Ibrahim Savant, Arafat Khan, Waheed Zaman and Umar Islam. An eighth man, Mohammed Gulzar, was found not guilty on all counts.
Prosecutors will have until October 3 to decide if they want to retry any of the defendants on the charges for which the jury could not reach a verdict. | Flan2021 | newsroom:1.0.0 | zs_opt |

Input: (CNN) -- Cuba will pardon more than 2,900 prisoners, the government said Friday, though U.S. subcontractor Alan Gross is not among those who will be freed. The decision to release the prisoners follows "numerous requests" from their family members and religious institutions, and is a humanitarian gesture, said Cuban President Raul Castro. Among those who might be freed are prisoners over the age of 60, along with those who are sick, female or young with no previous criminal record. With some exceptions, prisoners convicted of spying, terrorism, murder and drug trafficking will not be released. Those who will be freed have already served a "important" part of their sentences and exhibited good behavior, according to an official statement published on the state-run website Cubadebate. The jailed American, Gross, will not be among those pardoned, the Cuban Interests Section in Washington said. Gross was jailed in December 2009, when he was working as a subcontractor on a U.S. Agency for International Development project aimed at spreading democracy. Castro has accused him of importing satellite equipment to connect dissidents to the Internet, and this year Cuba's highest court upheld the 15-year sentence imposed on Gross for committing crimes against the security of the state. He has maintained his innocence and said he was trying to help connect the Jewish community to the Internet. Castro, speaking to the National Assembly, said that 86 prisoners from 25 countries would be among those released in coming days. He cited the upcoming visit of Pope Benedict XVI as one of the motivations behind the move, which he said showed the "generosity and strength of the revolution." The pope has said he plans to visit Mexico and Cuba before Easter.
Does the response "Because the Pope is visiting Cuba soon" correctly answer the question "Why is Castro freeing these people?"?

Coleco Industries Inc., a once high-flying toy maker whose stock peaked at $65 a share in the early 1980s, filed a Chapter 11 reorganization plan that provides just 1.125 cents a share for common stockholders. Under the plan, unsecured creditors, who are owed about $430 million, would receive about $92 million, or 21 cents for each dollar they are owed. In addition, they will receive stock in the reorganized company, which will be named Ranger Industries Inc. After these payments, about $225,000 will be available for the 20 million common shares outstanding. The Avon, Conn., company's stock hit a high in 1983 after it unveiled its Adam home computer, but the product was plagued with glitches and the company's fortunes plunged. But Coleco bounced back with the introduction of the Cabbage Patch dolls, whose sales hit $600 million in 1985. But as the craze died, Coleco failed to come up with another winner and filed for bankruptcy-law protection in July 1988. The plan was filed jointly with unsecured creditors in federal bankruptcy court in New York and must be approved by the court.

By David Martosko, U.s. Political Editor After years of castigating Barack Obama for his economic stewardship and his health insurance overhaul, real estate billionaire Donald Trump has cut the president some slack. Seated behind a cluttered desk in his Trump Tower building in New York City, Trump said he could think of one Obama administration accomplishment that he found praiseworthy. 'You could say the only thing would be the execution of the man who knocked down the World Trade Center,' Trump told MailOnline Tuesday, referring to the Navy SEAL raid that took out terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden on May 2, 2011.

Input: Nick Gargan is already facing allegations of sexual harassment. Now it is claimed he had a fling with daughter of embassy colleague. He was working as police liaison at the British embassy in Paris in 1998.
Output: Under fire: Nick Gargan, suspended chief constable of Avon & Somerset police, has been hit with fresh claims of sexual impropriety. A chief constable suspended over sex harassment claims left a previous post at the British embassy in Paris under a cloud after it emerged he had been in a close relationship with a senior colleague’s daughter. Nick Gargan, head of Avon and Somerset Police, was last night facing difficult questions about his conduct when he worked on the investigation into the death of Princess Diana. High-ranking diplomats are said to have been disappointed with the judgment of the then-married detective, who had a key role in the probe into the car crash which killed the Princess and Dodi Fayed. His posting as police liaison officer at the embassy in 1998 came while he was on secondment to the National Criminal Intelligence Service. The job meant he acted as intermediary between Scotland Yard and French detectives. According to a number of sources, his close relationship with a senior colleague’s daughter was hushed up, and after returning home Mr Gargan, now 47, continued his rise through the ranks. Sue Mountstevens, police and crime commissioner for Avon and Somerset, said that she was unaware of Mr Gargan’s unhappy spell in Paris when she appointed him chief constable last year. Until a month ago, when he was suspended over claims he sexually harassed at least four female officers and staff in Avon and Somerset, Mr Gargan was being tipped as a potential future Scotland Yard commissioner. He vehemently denies the allegations. It was unclear last night whether the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), which is investigating the alleged sexual harassment, will also probe the Paris claims. Mr Gargan, then in his early 30s, formed a close relationship with the daughter of a senior British embassy colleague. It is believed the woman, who was younger than Mr Gargan, was working at the embassy at the time. She could not be reached for comment last night. It is understood that the British ambassador to France at the time, Sir Michael Jay, and other senior embassy officials were alerted to the relationship. The British embassy in Paris: According to sources, his close relationship with a senior embassy colleague's daughter was hushed up, and after returning home Mr Gargan, now 47, continued his rise through the ranks. A source said: ‘Mr Gargan’s conduct while he was working at the British embassy in 1998 was wholly inappropriate. ‘It was certainly poor judgment, especially when you consider he was working on the Princess Diana investigation at the time.’ In a statement issued on behalf of Mr Gargan, the Chief Police Officers’ Staff Association said: ‘This is a historic, private and irrelevant matter. When Mr Gargan ended his secondment with the National Criminal Intelligence Service in 1998, it was entirely his own decision.’ A former colleague of Mr Gargan’s at the National Criminal Intelligence Service confirmed that he had left the embassy posting ‘under a cloud’ but would not elaborate.
Input: Psychologist Michael Thompson speaks with CNN about childhood independence. Thompson wrote a book about summer camp as a place for childhood self-discovery. The school consultant recommends having minimal contact with your kids at camp. Thompson says kids are stressed and need whimsy in their lives.
Output: The last time I checked in with psychologist and school consultant Michael Thompson, "Tiger Mom" was making headlines for how she drove her children to succeed. Thompson gave us memorable vignettes from the front lines, including: "You know you're an extreme parent if you imagine that your child is going to play professional sports even though no coach has predicted this outcome." And, "You know you're an extreme parent if you have your child take 30 practice SAT exams before the actual test." Extreme parents don't necessarily take a break over the summer. Neither does Thompson: "You know you're an extreme parent," he tells me, "if you send your child to camp for a month and then you go on the website every day to find a smiling picture of your child and you get frantic and call the camp if you can't find one." There's also the "call me" parent. "I had a camp director tell me he had a child who arrived with three cell phones," says Thompson: "one to turn in, one to use illegally until it was confiscated, and then the backup phone." These true stories helped persuade Thompson to write his new book about the value of summer camp. It's called: "Homesick and Happy: How Time Away From Parents Can Help A Child Grow." Some of us parents have children who at this very moment may be homesick at sleep-away camp. Michael Thompson's heart bleeds for them. But the bleeding stops when he thinks about the "developmental leaps" so many children make at summer camp, having challenged themselves in ways they don't when their parents are around. Thompson visited 20 camps and spoke to about 200 campers for "Homesick and Happy." He is struck by how campers love to recount what he calls their "campfire horror stories" -- of cold, miserable nights and mosquito bites all over their bodies. "[T]hese girls are standing there with these brilliant smiles on their faces, talking about their discomfort," says Thompson, "but they're talking about their personal triumph over discomfort and the fact that they were braver than they thought they were going to be. They didn't get immobilized. They didn't cry. They ate their cold dinner, went to bed, their sleeping bag was a little wet, and they come back with a story of triumph." Thompson says he logs about 100,000 miles a year visiting schools and speaking to parents. Self-esteem is a dominant concern. "Parents say, 'How do I give my child self-esteem?' ... And they're always a little demoralized when I say, 'You can't give your child self-esteem.' " So how is camp connected to self-esteem? In Thompson's view, camp is "the closest thing to Hogwarts that kids are likely to get. ... All of children's literature knows that the adventures only begin when you're away from your parents. Every great children's story is driven by the child being away from parents, experiencing things on their own." Thompson doesn't wish Harry Potter's family situation on anyone. But there's a lesson in Potter for us all. "Your parent has to open the door and let you walk out and find independence, experience it and become comfortable with it," says Thompson. "That is camp, for me." This is what Thompson sees when he consults with schools from September to June: "The constant pressure year after year makes kids incredibly anxious and they develop symptoms around anxiety and stress and they can't sleep and they worry all the time and they never feel they're done. And I think, gosh, you're living a life of a middle aged executive and you're only in 10th grade." Which is why this last insight is so critical, whether our children are at camp or at home this summer. "Camp is just whimsical a lot of the time," says Thompson. "And in this competitive economy, we're not often whimsical with our children. And they absolutely love whimsy." Thompson's discoveries have opened my eyes. Starting now, I will be the most whimsical dad ever. I'm not letting you know how I define whimsy. Because I'm determined to turn my whimsy into a competitive advantage for my children. They will have the whimsy edge! As for my child who is in camp right now, I'm not going to be one of those extreme parents. I'm not looking on the camp website for my child's smiling face. But I'm imagining it. How are you creating independent children? Have you had trouble letting go? Share your experiences in the comments section below.
Input: "Birdman" wins four Oscars, including best picture. Eddie Redmayne wins best actor, Julianne Moore best actress. Patricia Arquette, J.K. Simmons win supporting awards.
Output: | (CNN)"Birdman" soared late at the 87th Academy Awards, winning the big prize: best picture. The film, about a onetime superhero actor -- played by Michael Keaton -- making a comeback bid through a Broadway play, was filled with unusual touches: filmed as if all one shot, scored with a jazzy-drum soundtrack, shaded with magical realism, largely the vision of director and co-writer Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu. "This guy is as bold as bold could be," Keaton said of the director as he took a turn at the microphone during the best picture acceptance. The film won three other honors: directing, cinematography -- the second straight Oscar for cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki, who won last year for "Gravity" -- and original screenplay. Iñarritu is the second Mexican director to win in two years, after "Gravity's" Alfonso Cuaron. "Two Mexicans in a row, that's suspicious," Iñarritu joked. Full list of winners. "Birdman" had appeared to take the lead in the Oscar race in recent weeks, cementing its front-runner status with wins at the Producers Guild and the Independent Spirit Awards. Its main competition was "Boyhood," a chronicle of a youth's life shot over 12 years by director Richard Linklater. "Boyhood" ended up with one Oscar, for best supporting actress. Activist messages. Indeed, the Oscars were pretty much as the handicappers predicted. Eddie Redmayne won best actor for his performance as the ALS-afflicted scientist Stephen Hawking in "The Theory of Everything." Julianne Moore won best actress for her performance as a professor suffering from early-onset Alzheimer's in "Still Alice." "Boyhood's" Patricia Arquette won best supporting actress -- and made sure that her award was a call for equality. "We have fought for everybody else's equal rights. It's our time to have wage equality once and for all. And equal rights for women in the United Stares of America," she said, to rousing applause. Her activist message also resonated online. Also resonating was a stirring speech by Common and John Legend, who won best song for "Glory." Their performance of the song brought the film's star David Oyelowo to tears. 'Call your mom; call your dad' The best supporting actor Oscar went to J.K. Simmons of "Whiplash." The longtime character actor -- known to audiences for his roles in Sam Raimi's "Spider-Man" films as J.Jonah Jameson, the TV show "The Closer" and ads for Farmers Insurance and M&Ms, among many others -- paid tribute to his family in his speech, praising his wife and his "above-average" children. He also put in a plug for actual phone calls. "Call your mom; call your dad; don't text; don't email; tell them you love them," he said. Host Neil Patrick Harris tweaked him by humming the Farmers theme as Simmons left the stage. "Whiplash" won three Oscars, winning sound mixing and film editing along with supporting actor. "The Grand Budapest Hotel" tied "Birdman" with four Oscars: for score, production design, costume design and makeup. "Big Hero 6" won best animated feature. "Citizenfour" won best documentary feature. Director Laura Poitras thanked the film's subject, Edward Snowden, the NSA contractor who leaked classified files and earned the ire of the government. An attempt at a pun from Harris -- Snowden couldn't be at the Oscars "for some treason" -- got immediate pushback online. "The Imitation Game" won adapted screenplay. "Ida" won best foreign language film. NPH leads with jokes. The Oscars -- the "epicenter of noise and world attention," as "Ida" director Pawel Pawlikowski called them -- wasted no time in poking fun at some of the big issues facing Hollywood: diversity, economics and self-involvement. Harris led off the show with a joke about the lack of diversity among the acting nominees. "This year we honor Hollywood's best and whitest -- sorry, brightest," he joked. Then, in a mammoth opening number, he and Anna Kendrick were joined by Jack Black, who angrily hopped on stage to throw a sarcastic wet blanket over their hailing of "Moving Pictures," noting that the business is as much about "raising tents with tentpoles and chasing Chinese bucks" than it is about art. He was summarily dismissed by Harris. The host also wandered into the audience, greeting two seat fillers among the celebrities, and at one point parodied "Birdman" by walking through the backstage area in his underwear -- right onto the stage. #AskHerMore. Some unexpected rain didn't dampen the spirits of the celebrities arriving for Hollywood's biggest night. However, there was little burst of color this year among the red-carpet walkers. Instead, there were lots of whites, blacks, silvers and grays. Lady Gaga added some red with what appeared to be exaggerated dishwashing gloves. HLN: Live Oscar blog! Arquette decided to split the difference between black and white, with her gown consisting of a white top and black skirt. So did comedian Kevin Hart, who was wearing a tuxedo featuring a white jacket with black lapels, along with a black shirt, black tie and white pants. "When you're on the red carpet, you might as well pop," he told CNN. However, the Twitter hashtag #AskHerMore was encouraging interviewers to ask celebrities more than just "Who are you wearing?" One wonders what the late Joan Rivers would have thought of that. Rivers was also trending, however, for being left out of the "In Memoriam" montage. Well, it's the Oscars. Only a Birdman can fly above the fray. The show aired from Hollywood's Dolby Theatre. | Flan2021 | cnn_dailymail:3.4.0 | fs_opt |

Our crew has just arrived on the scene at Pope Lick Road where the deadly accident happened. (Source: Steven Richard/WAVE 3 News)
LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - An Ohio woman walking on an old but still active railroad trestle in east Louisville was apparently investigating a local urban legend with her boyfriend when she was hit and killed by a train, a deputy coroner said Sunday.
Roquel Bain, 26, of Dayton, Ohio, died of multiple blunt force injuries suffered in the collision and subsequent fall from the trestle, Deputy Coroner Jack Arnold said. The collision, which occurred near the 3100 block of South Pope Lick Road, was first reported to police at 7:30 p.m. Saturday.
Bain was pronounced dead at the scene. The coroner estimated that she fell between 80 and 100 feet. Her boyfriend survived with no injuries, police say.
Arnold said Bain and her boyfriend were visiting Louisville to take a "haunted" tour of the Waverly Hills Sanitorium. Before their tour started, they heard about the "Pope Lick Monster" myth. Curious, the two made their way up to the train tracks when the train surprised them, the man told the coroner. The man said that the two realized they couldn't make it to the end of the trestle so they decided to hang off the sides, but Bain couldn't move fast enough.

Many thrill-seekers mistakenly think the trestle is no longer in use, author and historian David Domine told WAVE 3 News for a story in 2014. They are drawn by stories of a creature - half-goat and half-man - that tricks people into climbing onto the trestle.
Many residents in the area say the myth has been taking the lives of many over the past couple of decades.
"It's been around for years, even my nieces and nephews used to go and come out here," Denise Harris said. "The Goatman, when they climb up on the trestles and they cross it--he's supposed to come out when they cross it."
Little do they know, going up onto the trestles in itself is a deadly choice.
"If they're halfway through [the tracks] and the train comes, you either have to jump, run or basically get it," Harris said. She also added many people think they can outrun the trains that come by.
"when you're young, you think you live forever; it's a euphoria. Or they think they can outrun the train," Harris said pointing at the trestles. "That's a long way to run and you can't run that fast."
She's right. With Norfolk Southern trains passing by at an average speed of 24.1 miles per hour, you would have to be faster than Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, just to keep up with the train. In addition, other residents say the specific area sees heavy traffic.
"I see a train pass every thirty minutes or so. It's shocking, people hear about so many deaths and they still take the risk," Michelle burns said.
Burns says she can only hope people will give it a second thought before they make the last decision of their lives.
"It's sad, I pray for the family, my thoughts are with them but I wis hthat people would think about what they're doing before they do it--it's definitely dangerous."
A chained fence and warning signs are in place to keep people away from the area.
The LMPD Homicide Unit is handling the investigation. The train involved is a Norfolk Southern train.

By the time the young couple spotted the locomotive, bearing down the railroad trestle at over 30 miles an hour, they had no choice.
Facing an 8-story drop on either side, with no way to outrun the train to the trestle’s end, the pair’s only hope was to cling to the sides of the tracks. The engineer later told officials, as the Kentucky newspaper the Courier-Journal reports, that he blared his horn and tried to slow down. Though the man on the tracks managed to make the split-second dive to the edge, the train was traveling too fast for his companion — there simply wasn’t enough time.
The train fatally struck Roquel Bain, a 26-year-old from Dayton, Ohio. She fell, some 100 feet to the ground.
Bain and her boyfriend, whose name has not yet been released by authorities, had traveled to Kentucky for an innocent bit of thrill-seeking — a tour of Waverly Hills Sanatorium, a former tuberculosis clinic turned haunted house. While in Louisville, they caught wind of another occult story, one which they decided to investigate in the twilight hours before their tour: the Pope Lick Monster.
Also known as the Goatman or the Sheepman, the Pope Lick Monster isn’t an icon of North American cryptozoology, lacking the national recognition of furry giants Bigfoot and Sasquatch. Still, within the confines of the woods surrounding Louisville, the creature has accumulated a rich history of lore and legend.
Pope Lick trestle (Google maps)
The monster’s origin stories are as varied as its name. To hear the Sierra Club tell it, the Pope Lick Monster was “exhibited as a circus freak in the late 19th century, escaping captivity when lightning struck the circus train and left him the lone survivor.” In 2014, local historian David Domine described the creature as something born out of a deal with the devil. He told Louisville’s WAVE news that: “The goat man arose as a tale of a local farmer back in the day. Tortured a herd of goats for Satan and signed a contract with him and forfeited his soul.” Domine depicts a muscular being that’s “part goat maybe even part sheep.”
In every telling, the Goatman remains fiercely attached to the trestle over Pope Lick Creek. “The Sheepman is something only told around here; it’s been around at least three generations,” filmmaker Ron Schildknecht told Louisville paper The New Voice in 1990. Schildknecht created a 16-minute short, “The Legend of the Pope Lick Monster,” that appears to come straight from the yarns a young Kentuckian might spin to impress a date — a part-sheep satyr that can hypnotize its victims, leaving them helpless in front of oncoming trains.
To a certain kind of young adventurer, the legend of the Pope Lick Monster is irresistible. Denise Harris, a Louisville local, said her nieces and nephews have climbed the trestle looking for the folkloric beast. “The Goatman, when they climb up on the trestles and they cross it,” as she told WAVE 3, “he’s supposed to come out,”
And though the trestle is old — it dates back to the 1800s — it’s still very much in use. When Schildknecht’s film debuted in December 1988, representatives for the Norfolk Southern train company feared it would erode the safety efforts in place to keep people off of the trestle.
Despite the warning signs and a tall fence that surrounds the trestle, Pope Creek has had several accidents and deaths, some possibly related to looking for the Goatman. Bain was pronounced dead at the scene, reports the Associated Press, with the coroner citing blunt trauma from the train strike and fall.
The incident has left the local community shaken. “I cried and I’m very upset over it,” Tina Mattingly, the owner of the haunted sanatorium Waverly Hills, in an interview with WHAS11. “I really wish it just hadn’t happened. It’s just not worth it.”
“It’s just so sad — a very pretty young girl who had her life in front of her,” deputy coroner Jack Arnold told the Courier-Journal. Her death, he said, is the first to be explicitly tied to the Goatman legend.
On the Waverly Hills Facebook page, a note posted late April 24 warns that all visiting ghost enthusiasts need to “follow local laws, danger warnings and no trespassing signs.” The Louisville police will not charge Bain’s boyfriend with trespassing, though simply climbing to the trestle itself is illegal, as the areas surrounding the tracks are private property.
For the Goatman, this satyr holds the tragic distinction of being one of the most dangerous mythical animals in North America. ||||| THE POPE LICK MONSTER
Something there is – the poet Robert Frost once almost said – that loves an urban myth, and in the case of the Pope Lick Monster that now faded love has lead to a 16-minute independent movie, a well-received play, thousands of teenaged memories and at least three deaths.
In its simplest terms, the monster was described in The Encyclopedia of Louisville as “a half-man, half-goat that has been rumored to live under the Norfolk Southern Railroad trestle across Pope Lick Creek and S. Pope Lick Road near Fisherville in eastern Jefferson County.”
“Stories of encounters,” the encyclopedia said, “ have abounded for more than three generations and have served as a mood setter for multiple romantic encounters between teenage boys and girls, many involving tests of “bravery” that require climbing out onto the trestle.”
“According to the legend, the creature hypnotizes trespassers into venturing out onto the trestle, thus luring them to their death before an oncoming train. Several people have been killed either on the trestle, or by falling from it, and many more have been injured.”
Various overwrought descriptions have given the monster the grotesquely deformed body of a man, fur-covered goat legs, an alabaster face with an aquiline nose, wide set-eyes, sharp horns protruding from his forehead and long greasy hair matching the fur on his legs. Other descriptions had him looking more like a sheep – with “Sheepman” the name being given to the beast.
Either way the creature is also said to be able to mimic familiar voices – luring people up onto the tracks – and if all else fails he dispatches his victims with a rusty, blood-stained axe.
The supposed origins of the beast include a local farmer becoming much too familiar with his goat, and a circus sideshow freak being freed when lightning struck the circus train. Other stories had the beast being an old chemist who became a recluse after his face was horribly burned in an explosion, or just a strange hermit living in an old shack.
All in all a totally incongruous tale set in a still peaceful but rapidly developing area just a few hundred yards off of Taylorsville Road and near where Pope Lick empties into Floyds Fork.
When viewed from a distance the skinny, rusted, and still heavily-used trestle seems inadequate for the job. Built in the late 1800s, it rises 90 feet above Pope Lick. It spans a distance of 772 feet. Much of this is covered by fields, brush, and small trees.
The trestle has no railings and no places to hide from trains. Photos taken at the top show the gleaming rails stretching off into the distance with only a few feet of black-brown railroad ties on each side – then only space and an abrupt, nine-story drop.
No one, of course, has ever seen the beast; actual sightings would only get in the way of the myth. Psychological studies tell us that such myths – or urban legends – are often rooted in some long-forgotten basis in fact. Exaggerated stories are repeated so often that they begin to bear the patina of truth. The associated movies, plays, television shows, and websites cater to our primal needs to believe and to follow.
Those needs in this instance became attached to a teenage rite of passage of facing up to the Pope Lick Monster, even walking across his trestle – particularly during Halloween. The activity became popular primarily among students from nearby Jeffersontown, but other high schools and even local colleges were well represented. To quote long-time Fisherville resident Martha Williams:
“There would be just mobs of kids out there near the trestle and climbing up on it. It used to be a favorite thing to do…the boys would con the girls into it. Most of the ones that came out here were no locals. The locals sort of knew better.”
In recent years this teenage bravado has also created tragedy. In February, 1987, Jack Charles Bahm II, a 17-year-old Spalding University student, was struck and killed by a train while walking on the trestle. In May, 1987, 19-year-old David Wayne Bryant died of injuries suffered a year earlier when he jumped from the trestle to avoid getting hit by a train. In November 2000 Nicholas Jewell of Mount Washington, 19, died after falling from the trestle. Four friends who were with him told police that Jewell had attempted to cross the trestle and was about halfway across when a freight train approached. Police said that Jewell had moved to the side and attempted to hold onto a railroad tie, but the train’s vibration eventually shook him off.
In the late 1980s the ongoing legend led to a 16-minute film, “The Legend of the Pope Lick Monster,” which was shot at the trestle by Louisville native and independent film producer Ron Schildknecht. The movie, which quickly drew anger from parents and railroad officials believing it would only draw more teenagers to the site, depicted a youth caught on the trestle hanging from a railroad tie to survive- a physical impossibility.
The Norfolk Southern Railroad also issued a statement, read at the movie’s premier, warning both of the trestle’s danger and that anyone caught on it would be prosecuted. Soon after the movie’s debut at Louisville’s Uptown Theatre – and the deaths of the teenagers – police security increased, a tall chain-link security fence was erected at the base of the trestle, and “Danger”, “Private Property”, and “Keep Off” signs were put up. Someone would later paint “JC, I Love and Miss You 3-16-76” across the concrete base of the trestle in tribute to Jack Charles Bahm.
The trestle would later find its way into a play written by Prospect, Kentucky poet and McArthur Foundation “Genius Award” winner Naomi Wallace called “The Trestle at Pope Lick Creek.” The complex and well-received play, which has been staged all over the country, is set in the late depression days of 1937. It features a scene in which two “horrifically confused” teenagers race across a trestle as they hear a train approaching, knowing they can only make it to safety if they don’t trip or look back. The play was originally produced at Louisville’s Actors Theatre. Courier-Journal theatre critic Judith Egerton called it “a complicated, interwoven play that moves back and forth in time between past and present, with layers of meaning that overlap and build on each other.”

What is a one-paragraph summary of the above article? | – The search for a fabled "goatman" said to prowl an active 19th-century train trestle in Louisville, Ky., has led to tragedy. Roquel Bain, 26, who was visiting from Ohio, planned to go on a "haunted" tour of Louisville's former tuberculosis clinic with her boyfriend Saturday when the pair heard a local legend about the Pope Lick Monster, a half-man, half-goat creature said to appear to those who climb the trestle across Pope Lick Creek and cross its 772-foot length, per WTOL. They decided to attempt the crossing, but a train suddenly appeared blaring its horn, reports the Washington Post. Bain's boyfriend hung off the side of the trestle as the train passed, but Bain couldn't get out of the way in time. She was hit by the train about 40 feet from the trestle's end, per the Louisville Courier-Journal. Her body was found some 100 feet below. "It's just so sad—a very pretty young girl who had her life in front of her. It's just so preventable," a coroner says. "I see a train pass every 30 minutes or so," adds a local. "It's shocking, people hear about so many deaths and they still take the risk." The Parklands notes at least three teens have died from trips to the trestle. It isn't clear where the fable first originated, but it's been around for three generations. A local historian cites a story about a man who tortured a herd of goats for Satan. Others say the monster was a circus freak who escaped the circus train. The legend picked up followers in the 1980s with a short film. The "goatman" with furry goat legs and horns is said to mimic familiar voices to get his victims to the trestle and finishes off those who avoid a train with a rusty axe.

Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin (/'pUSkIn/; Russian: Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin, tr. Aleksandr Sergeyevich Pushkin; IPA: [aljI'ksandr sjI'rgjejIvjItc 'puskjIn]; 6 June [O.S. 26 May] 1799 - 10 February [O.S. 29 January] 1837) was a Russian author of the Romantic era who is considered by many to be the greatest Russian poet and the founder of modern Russian literature. Pushkin was born into Russian nobility in Moscow. His matrilineal great grandfather was Abram Gannibal, who was brought over as a slave from what is now Cameroon. Pushkin published his first poem at the age of fifteen, and was widely recognized by the literary establishment by the time of his graduation from the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum. While under the strict surveillance of the Tsar's political police and unable to publish, Pushkin wrote his most famous play, the drama Boris Godunov. His novel in verse, Eugene Onegin, was serialized between 1825 and 1832. Notoriously touchy about his honour, Pushkin fought as many as twenty-nine duels, and was fatally wounded in such an encounter with Georges-Charles de Heeckeren d'Anthes. Pushkin had accused D'Anthes, a French officer serving with the Chevalier Guard Regiment of attempting to seduce the poet's wife, Natalya Pushkina.
Question: "In what year did Pushkin most likely write his first published poem?"
Answer: "1825"
Response: no
On the previous evening,--March 12th,--the monotony of the camp had been unexpectedly disturbed by the arrival, from the direction of Salt Lake City, of a horseman completely exhausted by fatigue and cold, who proved to be no other than Mr. Kane, whose mission to the Mormons by way of California was at that time totally unknown to the army. The next morning he introduced himself to the Governor, was received as his guest, and remained in conference with him throughout the day. What was the character of their communication is unknown, except by inference from its results. When presented to Judge Eckels, on the following day, Mr. Kane exhibited to him the letters he bore from the President, and other letters, also, from Brigham Young, accrediting him as a negotiator in the existing difficulties. To General Johnston he showed nothing; nor did the Governor, to the knowledge of the camp, acquaint either that officer or any other person with the purport of his business. It was evident to everybody, however, that the Mormon leaders, conscious of their inability to resist the force by which they would be assailed so soon as the snow should melt upon the mountains, were engaged in an effort, of which Mr. Kane was the agent, to secure through the Governor, if possible, indemnity for their past offences, in consideration of acknowledgment of his authority.
Question: "What person was aware of Mr. Kane's purpose for arrival in town?"
Answer: "The Governor"

The properties of matter depend on the types of atoms that matter is made of. Matter can exist in two forms. It can be a pure substance. This means it is not mixed with anything. It can also be a combination of different substances. This means it can be a mix of different types of atoms. You may recall that atoms differ based on the numbers of protons they contain. Some atoms contain only one proton such as Hydrogen. Other atoms contain many protons. There are many types of atoms. For example, Helium has two protons. An Oxygen atom has eight. Water is composed of a two types of atoms. Water is made of two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atoms. There are only so many types of atoms. These atoms can be mixed into an almost limitless amount of substances. So what do we call a substance that has only a single type of atom?
Question: "What are two types of atoms according to the paragraph?"

He married Marie Armstrong (1892-1956), a gentile, in 1915, when he was twenty-one years of age, and they had a daughter, Edwina, who became actress Edwina Armstrong (1916-1991). He later met Rose Caylor, a writer, and together they left Chicago (and his family) in 1924, moving to New York. He was divorced from Armstrong in 1925. He married Caylor that same year, and they remained married until Hechts death in 1964. On July 30th, 1943 Ben and Rose had a daughter, Jenny Hecht, who became an actress at the age of 8, and first appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show playing the role of Helen Hayes in "The Helen Hayes Story," 1951. Jennys next appearance was in the movie "Actors and Sin," 1952. Jenny also appeared in the movie "Apres la Passion selon Sade," 1968. Jenny appeared on Broadway at the age of 9 in "MID-SUMMER," 1953-1954, "SIMONE," 1959, and in "THE PLOUGH AND THE STARS," 1960. Jenny performed with The Living Theater, 1963-1970. Jenny also had several television appearances, including "Three Empty Rooms," 1953, "Climax," 1958, "Wagon Train," 1958, and "The FBI," 1971. Jennys last appearance was in the movie "The Jesus Trip," 1971. It is not known if it was accidental or intentional, but shortly after filming of "The Jesus Trip" was completed Jenny died of a drug overdose on March 25, 1971 at the age of 27. A play about Jennys brief life, The Screenwriters Daughter, was staged in London in October 2015.

Determine the sentiment:
"Convicts" is very much a third act sort of film. All the dialogue and character interaction that occurs within it comes out of the long wind-down of a late southern day. And, by extension, the life of its main character, Soll (Robert Duvall).
This is the first collaboration of director Peter Masterson and writer Horton Foote. Six years earlier, the worked together on "The Trip to Bountiful", a film that seems almost action-packed in comparison to this one. Masterson is not necessarily a good director. In fact, he's just barely this side of adequate. The slow pace leaves a lot of room for cinematographer Toyomichi Kurita, who infuses the film with just the right sense of fragile light & warmth.
Because this is essentially a filmed play, with little in the way of editing or directing prowess, it all comes to the acting. As far as I'm concerned there's no flaws here. Robert Duvall and James Earl Jones, two of the best American actors (both born in January 1931), create characters that are wholly real, uninterested in anything besides living. Lukas Haas, a young actor who I was familiar with from "Testament" and "Witness", plays a character very much like his other early roles. He is quiet, withdrawn, slightly scared and sad, somehow. These are qualities that seem natural from him.
Perhaps a title like "Convicts" is a disservice to this film. That title, along with the opening scene, seem to create an image of a far more high-strung western type picture. If slow-paced stage productions don't interest you terribly, you'll want to pass on this one as well. Otherwise, this might be exactly the film you wish they made more often.

We met with the commercial team this afternoon and I was able to piece together the following: Access to the auction site will be by clicking on a button on the EnronOnline (note spelling) trading page. Most users of the site will already be signed up for EnronOnline - both a PA and ETA executed. Other users will be given a user ID and password that give them "guest" access to EnronOnline and trading access to the auction page. On the auction page the users may submit their offers to transact (either to buy or sell) with Enron. The page will list a reserve price and identify the number of credits to be auctioned. We are willing to commit to transact up to that number with the best bidders (at or beyond the reserve price) but may transact larger volumes if we choose. Users' offers may be submitted at any time during the auction period (this time frame remains a bit unclear - probably one day, possibly a week or more) and must remain binding until the close of the bidding and determination of winning bidders. Certain uncreditworthy users may be required to post a deposit in the full amount of their offer to buy. It is not yet clear if we will publish the offers after the fact (maybe just the winning offers - all without names of course) or even during the auction period but we would like to have that option. I'm sure I've missed a few points but that gives you the flavor. Harry is preparing the "GTC" for the actual purchases and sales - I assume based on our standard contracts for these products. We need to put the legal framework together for the rest of it. If the existing PA and ETA are adequate, that would be great but I haven't reread them with that in mind. We REALLY don't want to have to have existing users sign another piece of paper. It makes sense that the existing ETA covers some territory that won't matter to users who only have access to the auction page (e.g. references to master agreements) so a stripped down version of the ETA for those counterparties would make sense. Can we talk on Monday?

– Republican presidential contenders would not touch the brouhaha surrounding Mormonism with a 10-foot pole today. Michele Bachmann called the issue "inconsequential" and "ridiculous." "We have religious tolerance in this country, and I have a very sincerely held belief on faith, and I think we just leave it at that," she told State of the Union. "I'm not running for theologian-in-chief," responded rival Herman Cain, who called himself "a lifelong Christian," but added that “I am not gonna do an analysis of Mormonism versus Christianity for the sake of answering that. I’m not getting into that." Elsewhere on your Sunday dial, as per Politico: Bachmann on Occupy Wall Street: "Barack Obama’s policies have put us in one of the worst tailspins economically that we have. Maybe that’s why the protest I saw was within shouting distance of the White House." Bachmann also alleged that unions were behind the protests. Cain on OWS: "The bankers and the people on Wall Street didn’t write these failed policies of the Obama administration. They didn’t spend a trillion dollars that didn’t work. The administration and the Democrats spent a trillion dollars." He also blamed unions for the protests. Newt Gingrich on OWS: The protests are the "natural product of Obama's class warfare." Nancy Pelosi on Eric Cantor's attacks on OWS: "I didn't hear him say anything when the tea party was out demonstrating, actually spitting on members of Congress right here in the Capitol. And he and his colleagues were putting signs in the windows encouraging them." Pelosi on Scott Brown's slam on Elizabeth Warren: "The response, really, I thought, spoke volumes about how clueless Sen. Brown is. It really spoke volumes about disrespect for women that, really, he might not even realize. I bet you he'd like to take it back. ... But women know. They hear a comment like that, it tells a lot about somebody." Rick Santorum on the difference between racial integration in the military and the DADT repeal: "We're talking about people who are simply different because of the color of their skin, not because of their activities that would cause problems from people living in those close quarters."

Scott Brown of being insensitive toward women for a comment he made last week about his Democratic rival in the Massachusetts Senate race, Elizabeth Warren.
"The response," Pelosi said, "really, I thought, spoke volumes about how clueless Sen. Brown is. It really spoke volumes about disrespect for women that, really, he might not even realize. I bet you he'd like to take it back. ... But women know. They hear a comment like that, it tells a lot about somebody."
Pelosi, in an interview aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week," was referring to an exchange that began at a Democratic debate last week where Warren was asked how she paid for college. Brown once posed nude for Cosmopolitan, but Warren said: "I kept my clothes on."
Asked on a Boston radio interview to respond to Warren, Brown said: "Thank God." ||||| Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) refused to say on Sunday that Mitt Romney is a Christian, instead stressing religious tolerance in the country.
“Well you know, this is so inconsequential as far as this campaign is concerned," the Republican presidential candidate said when asked about Romney's faith by CNN "State of the Union" host Candy Crowley. "We have religious tolerance in this country, and we understand that people have different views on their faith, and I have a very sincerely held belief on faith, and I think we just leave it at that.”
Pressed on the issue, Bachmann spoke about her own faith and insisted that questioning a candidate's faith is a distraction.
"To make this a big issue is just ridiculous right now, because every day I'm on the street talking to people — this is not what people are talking about," she said.
Another GOP presidential contender, Herman Cain, who also appeared on "State of the Union," gave a similar nonanswer on the question. ||||| Two Republican presidential rivals — former pizza executive Herman Cain and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich — spoke out on Sunday against the Occupy Wall Street protests.
Appearing on CBS's "Face the Nation," Cain called the protests a "distraction."
"Quite simply, the bankers and the people on Wall Street didn’t write these failed policies of the Obama administration," Cain said. "They didn’t spend a trillion dollars that didn’t work. The administration and the Democrats spent a trillion dollars. They’re not proposing another $450 billion; the administration is proposing another $450 billion wrapped in different rhetoric."
He also suggested unions are behind the protests.
"We know that the unions and certain union-related organizations have been behind these protests that are going on on Wall Street and other parts around the country," he said.
Gingrich, appearing on the same show, chimed in on the issue as well, saying the protests are the "natural product of Obama's class warfare." ||||| Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann said Sunday that the Occupy Wall Street protesters should direct their anger at President Barack Obama, not Wall Street.
"Barack Obama’s policies have put us in one of the worst tailspins economically that we have," the Republican presidential candidate said. "Maybe that’s why the protest I saw was within shouting distance of the White House."
Speaking on CNN's "State of the Union," Bachmann said she stopped by one of the protests in Washington on Friday — and expressed concerns about whether unions were behind the protests.
"I saw a lot of signs from [the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees] and other unions that are there, so I don’t know how spontaneous these protests were," she said. ||||| Former Godfather's Pizza executive Herman Cain sidestepped a question about Mitt Romney's Mormonism Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union."
“I’m not running for theologian-in-chief,” the Republican presidential contender said, answering a question about the controversial comments of Pastor Robert Jeffress this weekend. “I’m a lifelong Christian, and what that means is one of my guiding principles for the decisions I make is I start with, 'Do the right thing.' I’m not getting into that controversy."
He told host Candy Crowley he knows Romney is a Mormon, but he wouldn't say whether that makes him a Christian.
“I am not gonna do an analysis of Mormonism versus Christianity for the sake of answering that. I’m not getting into that,” Cain said.
Pressed further about why he was "dodging" the question, he insisted it was a distraction.
“If that’s what it looks like," he said, "I’m dodging it because it’s not going to help us boost this economy.” ||||| | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_noopt |
Answer by taking a quote from the following article:
Kasem was born in Detroit, Michigan, on April 27, 1932, to Lebanese Druze immigrant parents, who had settled in Michigan, where they worked as grocers. Kasem was named after Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, a man Kasem said his father respected. In the 1940s, "Make Believe Ballroom" reportedly inspired Kasem to follow a career in radio and later host a national radio hits countdown show. Kasem received his first experience in radio covering sports at Northwestern High School in Detroit.
On July 4, 1970, Kasem, along with Don Bustany, Tom Rounds, and Ron Jacobs, launched the weekly radio program American Top 40 (AT40). At the time, top 40 radio was on the decline as DJs preferred to play album-oriented progressive rock. Loosely based on the TV program Your Hit Parade, the show counted down from #40 on the pop charts to #1--the first #1 was Three Dog Night's "Mama Told Me (Not to Come)"--based on the Billboard Hot 100 each week. The show, however, was not just about the countdown. Kasem mixed in biographical information about the artists, flashback, and "long-distance dedication" segments where he read letters written by listeners to dedicate songs of their choice to far away loved ones. He often included trivia facts about songs he played and artists whose work he showcased. Frequently, he mentioned a trivia fact about an unnamed singer before a commercial break, then provided the name of the singer after returning from the break. Kasem ended the program with his signature sign-off, "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars." The show debuted on seven stations, but on the back of Kasem's "always friendly and upbeat" baritone voice it soon went nationwide. In October 1978, the show expanded from three hours a week to four. American Top 40's success spawned several imitators including a weekly half-hour music video television show, America's Top 10, hosted by Kasem himself. "When we first went on the air, I thought we would be around for at least 20 years," he later remarked. "I knew the formula worked. I knew people tuned in to find out what the No. 1 record was." Due to his great knowledge of music, Kasem became known as not just a disc jockey, but also a music historian. In 1971, Kasem provided the character voice of Peter Cottontail in the Rankin/Bass production of Here Comes Peter Cottontail. In the same year, he appeared in the low-budget film The Incredible 2-Headed Transplant, in what was probably his best remembered acting role. From 1973 until 1985, he voiced Robin on several SuperFriends franchise shows. In 1980, he voiced Merry in The Return of the King. He also voiced Alexander Cabot III on Josie and the Pussycats and Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space, and supplied a number of voices for Sesame Street. In the late 1970s, Kasem portrayed an actor who imitated Columbo in the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries two-part episode "The Mystery of the Hollywood Phantom." He portrayed a golf commentator in an episode of Charlie's Angels titled "Winning is for Losers", and appeared on Police Story, Quincy, M.E., and Switch. In 1977 he was initially hired as the narrator for the ABC sitcom Soap, but quit after the pilot episode due to the content. Rod Roddy took his place on the program. In 1984, Kasem made a cameo in Ghostbusters, reprising his role as the host of American Top 40. For a period in the late 1970s, Kasem was also the staff announcer for the NBC television network.

Write a positive movie review. | Halloween is one of the best examples of independent film. It's very well made and has more psychological elements to it than you might realize at first glance. It is a simple movie told very well. The music is perfect and is one of the most haunting scores... If you haven't seen this movie yet, you must check it out. The cast is all terrific. I wish they had never made sequel after sequel. The first one was by far the best and should have ended like it did without having a sequel. It was fun to see Jamie Lee Curtis in the movie. She hasn't seemed to age (she's just as gorgeous today, without the hairdo and seventies clothes). The scenes through the mask are one of the scariest things ever! | Flan2021 | imdb_reviews/plain_text:1.0.0 | zs_noopt |
