one couple tied their six children to trees so they could not follow them as they fled to find food. This is all lower case. Can you fix that?
One couple tied their six children to trees so they could not follow them as they fled to find food. It's concerning to hear about the desperation that led a couple to choose such a drastic action in order to search for food. This situation speaks to broader issues, such as extreme poverty, famine, and the overall lack of resources available to ensure that every family can provide for their basic needs. In a world where many have access to an abundance of food, it's important to address the factors that cause such disparity and the unfortunate choices that result from those situations. Here are some different aspects to consider: 1. Poverty: This type of incident often stems from extreme poverty, in which families struggle to meet their basic needs, including food, clothing, and shelter. Chronic poverty causes many families to resort to desperate measures in order to survive. Governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) must work together to tackle poverty and help support impoverished families. 2. Famine: Famines can arise due to various factors, such as climate change, conflict, and poor governance, leading to widespread hunger and malnutrition in affected regions. International organizations and local governments need to work together to provide emergency food aid during famines and implement measures to prevent future ones. 3. Lack of access to education: Education plays a critical role in breaking the cycle of poverty. An educated population is better equipped to find ways to meet their basic needs and create better lives for themselves and their families. Ensuring that children in impoverished regions have access to quality education is paramount. 4. Weak social safety nets: In some cases, families may not have access to the necessary social safety nets or support systems that could help mitigate their dire situations. Strengthening these safety nets can provide a lifeline for families in need. 5. War and conflict: Families in war-torn areas are particularly vulnerable to experiencing extreme hardships. Peace-building efforts must be a priority for local and international organizations in order to establish security and stability in these regions, thus facilitating the rebuilding of communities. 6. Climate change: The increasing unpredictability of weather patterns due to climate change can lead to crop failures, water shortages, and additional challenges for families as they search for ways to provide food and other basic necessities. Combating climate change is essential in order to mitigate its impact on the most vulnerable populations. As we work to address these pressing issues, we must remember the extreme circumstances faced by many families across the world and strive to create a global society where incidents like this become a part of history rather than ongoing reality.

"Look at My Dab" (originally titled "Bitch Dab") is a song by American hip hop group Migos. It was released as a single on October 30, 2015 by Quality Control Entertainment and 300 Entertainment. The song was included on their mixtape "Back to the Bando" (2015) and was produced by Drumma Boy. It peaked at number 87 on the US "Billboard" Hot 100 chart. Choose your answer: based on the paragraph above can we conclude that "The Migos make good music."? [i] Yes [ii] It's impossible to say [iii] No I think the answer is
[ii] It's impossible to say. The given paragraph provides information about the song "Look at My Dab" by Migos, its release date, labels, inclusion in their mixtape, and its peak position on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, simply knowing these facts is not enough to determine whether Migos make good music or not. Good music is a subjective term, and people's tastes in music vary greatly. It would be necessary to listen to the song or research critiques and opinions from various music enthusiasts, critics, and audiences to better assess the quality of the music produced by Migos. Moreover, basing our judgment of the entire group's musical abilities on just one song would not be fair or accurate. A comprehensive evaluation would require a deeper analysis of their other songs, albums, and the general reception of their work within both the music industry and listeners' preferences.

This is some data: United States, language, English language. Generate a detailed description of this data
The data provided includes three significant keywords: United States, language, and English language. In this detailed description, each of these terms will be explored, as well as the relationship and significance between them. United States: The United States (U.S. or US), also referred to as the United States of America (USA), is a federal republic composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major self-governing territories, and various minor island possessions. The country is located primarily in North America and spans across various time zones, climate regions, and geographical landscapes. Spanning a total area of 3.8 million square miles, the United States is the third or fourth-largest country in the world by total area. It is known for its highly diverse population, strong economy, political influence, and rich cultural contributions. The United States has a complex history, with its origins dating back to the Indigenous peoples who inhabited the land for thousands of years before the arrival of European settlers in the 15th and 16th centuries, and the eventual formation of the country after declaring independence from Britain in 1776. Language: Language is a complex and highly-structured system of communication that is utilized by humans to express and comprehend thoughts, ideas, emotions, and experiences. Languages are rooted in symbols, primarily spoken or written, which represent specific meanings and can be efficiently combined and manipulated according to grammatical rules. These symbols, or words, are organized into hierarchical structures that comprise letters, morphemes, words, phrases, clauses, and sentences. In addition to verbal and written languages, non-verbal languages also play a significant role in communication through body language, facial expressions, and gestures. With over 7,000 distinct languages spoken around the world today, language remains central to human culture, identity, and socialization. English Language: The English language is a West Germanic language that originated from the Anglo-Saxon dialects spoken by Germanic settlers in what is now England and southern Scotland between the 5th and the 7th centuries AD. Over time, English has evolved and incorporated elements from Old Norse, Norman-French, Latin, and other languages, creating a highly diverse and dynamic linguistic landscape. Today, English is considered the global language—or "lingua franca"—owing to its widespread use in diplomacy, business, academia, and technology. With approximately 375 million native speakers and over 1.5 billion individuals capable of speaking and understanding English as a second language, the English language is the most widely spoken language in the world. The Relationship Between the United States and the English Language: The United States is home to the largest population of English speakers in the world. English is the primary language spoken by the majority of its residents, and it is the official language of the federal government. The English language played a crucial role in the development and expansion of the United States, as it was the dominant language spoken by the European settlers who established the colonies. Today, the United States' global influence in politics, economy, and culture contributes significantly to the spread and dominance of the English language worldwide. In turn, the English language has shaped the nation's identity and facilitated its integration with the global community. In summary, the data provided: United States, language, and English language are interconnected terms that represent a complex relationship between a nation, its primary means of communication, and the historical, cultural, and global influence arising from that communication. The United States, as a country, is characterized by its cultural diversity, which is reflected in the multifaceted nature of the English language and the way it has evolved and spread to become the global lingua franca.

Question: Who does the government help with schools? Choices: - school children - parents - get money - require to pay taxes - take money The rationale to choose "school children" as the answer is that: A:
The primary focus of government assistance in schools is to ensure access to quality education, safety, and overall well-being for school children. This is achieved through various policies, programs, and funding mechanisms that directly or indirectly support children's educational journeys. 1. School children: Government help with schools is primarily aimed at benefiting the school children themselves. This includes allocating resources for hiring qualified teachers, developing curriculum, providing educational materials, and maintaining safe school facilities. Moreover, governments invest in special educational programs, extracurricular activities, and nutritional support for students in need. 2. Parents: While school children are the central beneficiaries, government help with schools also indirectly assists parents. Parents gain peace of mind knowing their children are receiving an adequate education in a secure environment. Additionally, parents often benefit from government subsidies or tax breaks that lower the overall expenses of their children's education. 3. Get money: Governments collect and allocate public funds to support education through taxes, grants, and other fiscal measures. Properly managing and distributing these resources helps ensure that schools can continually improve their infrastructure, educational materials, and staff support. 4. Require to pay taxes: While everyone is required to pay taxes, certain taxes are earmarked specifically for education. This shared responsibility ensures all members of a community contribute to the development and sustainment of a high-quality educational system. 5. Take money: The term "take money" might refer to government practices that allocate and manage funds for educational purposes. Governments must ensure that tax dollars are effectively used to provide equal opportunities for all students, regardless of their background or socioeconomic status. In conclusion, while the main beneficiaries of government help with schools are indeed school children, it is essential to understand that this assistance also reaches out to parents, educational staff, and the community as a whole. Providing quality education to all helps in building a stronger, more informed, and well-rounded society.

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: It was Saturday. As always, it was a busy one, for "Six days shall you labor and all your work" was taken seriously back then. Outside, Father and Mr. Patrick next door were busy chopping firewood. Inside their own houses, Mother and Mrs. Patrick were engaged in spring cleaning. Somehow the boys had slipped away to the back lot with their kites. Now, even at the risk of having brother caught to beat carpets, they had sent him to the kitchen for more string . It seemed there was no limit to the heights to which kites would fly today. My mother looked at the sitting room, its furniture disordered for a thorough sweeping. Again she cast a look toward the window. "Come on, girls! Let's take string to the boys and watch them fly the kites a minute." On the way we met Mrs. Patric, laughing guiltily as if she were doing something wrong, together with her girls. There never was such a day for flying kites! We played all our fresh string into the boys' kites and they went up higher and higher. We could hardly distinguish the orange-colored spots of the kites. Now and then we slowly pulled one kite back, watching it dancing up and down in the wind, and finally bringing it down to earth, just for the joy of sending it up again. Even our fathers dropped their tools and joined us. Our mothers took their turn, laughing like schoolgirls. I think _ . Parents forgot their duty and their dignity; children forgot their everyday fights and little jealousies. "Perhaps it's like this in the kingdom of heaven," I thought confusedly. It was growing dark before we all walked sleepily back to the housed. I suppose we had some sort of supper. I suppose there must have been surface tidying-up, for the house on Sunday looked clean and orderly enough. The strange thing was, we didn't mention that day afterward. I felt a little embarrassed. Surely none of the others had been as excited as I. I locked the memory up in that deepest part of me where we keep "the things that cannot be and yet they are." The years went on, then one day I was... Question: Mrs. Patrick was laughing guiltily because she thought _ . Options: A: she was too old to fly kites B: her husband would make fun of her C: she should have been doing her housework D: her girls weren't supposed to the boy's games A:
she should have been doing her housework

Single/multi-choice problem: Which of the following solutions is better for the following goal: How can I make a cool bright lantern if I don't have a battery? OPTIONS: [-] Fill a mason type jar with chocolate milk, add a glow stick and seal it. [-] Fill a mason type jar with water, add a glow stick and seal it.
To determine the better solution for making a cool bright lantern without a battery, let's compare and evaluate the given options step-by-step. Option 1: Fill a mason type jar with chocolate milk, add a glow stick and seal it. Step 1: Fill the jar with chocolate milk - Chocolate milk is opaque, which would limit the light from passing through it effectively. Step 2: Add a glow stick - A glow stick produces light by mixing the chemicals inside it. Step 3: Seal the jar to keep the contents secure. Result: The chocolate milk would hinder the light from the glow stick, making this option less effective as a lantern. Option 2: Fill a mason type jar with water, add a glow stick and seal it. Step 1: Fill the jar with water - Water is transparent, which allows light to pass through it effectively. Step 2: Add a glow stick - A glow stick produces light by mixing the chemicals inside it. The light will be easily visible through the water. Step 3: Seal the jar to keep the contents secure. Result: The water helps transmit the light from the glow stick more efficiently, making this option a better choice for a lantern. Based on the analysis of these steps, Option 2 (Fill a mason type jar with water, add a glow stick and seal it) is the better solution for making a cool bright lantern without a battery, as it allows the light from the glow stick to be transmitted more effectively through the jar with water.

Please answer the following question: The following article contains an answer for the question: Who was defeated at the Battle of Megalopolis? , can you please find it? Alexander perhaps undercut his own rule by demonstrating signs of megalomania. While utilizing effective propaganda such as the cutting of the Gordian Knot, he also attempted to portray himself as a living god and son of Zeus following his visit to the oracle at Siwah in the Libyan Desert (in modern-day Egypt) in 331 BC. His attempt in 327 BC to have his men prostrate before him in Bactra in an act of proskynesis borrowed from the Persian kings was rejected as religious blasphemy by his Macedonian and Greek subjects after his court historian Callisthenes refused to perform this ritual. When Alexander had Parmenion murdered at Ecbatana (near modern Hamadan, Iran) in 330 BC, this was "symptomatic of the growing gulf between the king's interests and those of his country and people", according to Errington. His murder of Cleitus the Black in 328 BC is described as "vengeful and reckless" by Dawn L. Gilley and Ian Worthington. Continuing the polygamous habits of his father, Alexander encouraged his men to marry native women in Asia, leading by example when he wed Roxana, a Sogdian princess of Bactria. He then married Stateira II, eldest daughter of Darius III, and Parysatis II, youngest daughter of Artaxerxes III, at the Susa weddings in 324 BC.Meanwhile, in Greece, the Spartan king Agis III attempted to lead a rebellion of the Greeks against Macedonia. He was defeated in 331 BC at the Battle of Megalopolis by Antipater, who was serving as regent of Macedonia and deputy hegemon of the League of Corinth in Alexander's stead. Before Antipater embarked on his campaign in the Peloponnese, Memnon, the governor of Thrace, was dissuaded from rebellion by use of diplomacy. Antipater deferred the punishment of Sparta to the League of Corinth headed by Alexander, who ultimately pardoned the Spartans on the condition that they submit fifty nobles as hostages. Antipater's hegemony was somewhat unpopular in Greece due to his practice (perhaps by order of Alexander) of exiling malcontents and garrisoning cities with Macedonian... A:
The Battle of Megalopolis occurred in 331 BC, during the time of Alexander the Great. However, the key figure involved in this battle was not Alexander himself, but his deputy, Antipater. While Alexander was off in Asia, the Spartan King Agis III, attempted to lead a rebellion in Greece against Macedonia. This rebellion was met with fierce opposition in the form of Antipater and his forces. Our key question here is - "Who was defeated at the Battle of Megalopolis?" From the information provided in the article, we can establish that the person defeated was King Agis III of Sparta. Antipater, who was serving as regent of Macedonia and deputy hegemon of the League of Corinth in Alexander's stead, succeeds in defeating Agis III in the Battle of Megalopolis. After winning the battle, Antipater didn't immediately engage in punitive measures against Sparta. Instead, he deferred the task of deciding Sparta's punishment to the League of Corinth, which was headed by Alexander. In the end, Alexander opted to pardon the Spartans on the condition that they provide fifty nobles as hostages. Therefore, we can conclude that the Battle of Megalopolis marked a major defeat for King Agis III of Sparta at the hands of Antipater, who was acting on behalf of Alexander the Great. This demonstrates the strength of Macedonia's forces and the savviness of their political moves, both on the battlefield and in the wider strategic sense. Despite the challenges posed by dissent and rebellion in Greece, Macedonia managed to maintain control, thus ensuring the continuation of Alexander's empire.

I heard that Cameron played baseball for his college after earning a scholarship. And I was wondering What will Others want to do next? Options are: [I] watch Cameron play baseball [II] earn the scholarship [III] boo Cameron Answer:
To determine the best course of action for others based on the given options, we can analyze the motivations and interests of people who hear about Cameron's achievements: Option I: Watch Cameron play baseball - People might be interested in watching Cameron play because they may admire his talent and achievements or want to support him as a friend or family member. - This may be the most plausible option for those who genuinely wish to see Cameron succeed and are fans of baseball themselves. Option II: Earn the scholarship - Others may feel inspired by Cameron's success and seek to earn a scholarship themselves. - This could be a likely route for motivated individuals who have a passion for baseball or any other athletic or academic discipline, and who want to pursue higher education. Option III: Boo Cameron - This is an unlikely choice for most people as it reflects negativity and animosity towards Cameron. - Only those who have personal issues with him or are envious of his achievements might choose this option. Considering these factors, most people would likely choose either Option I (watch Cameron play baseball) or Option II (earn the scholarship). Both of these options represent positive and supportive responses to Cameron's achievements. However, there will always be a few individuals who may gravitate towards Option III due to their own personal reasons.

Q:Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What is the first name of the person that wants to drink Selene's blood? The remaining vampire covens are on the verge of annihilation by the Lycans. Both species are searching for Selene: the vampires seek justice for the death of Viktor, while the Lycans, led by Marius, intend to use her to locate Eve, whose blood holds the key to building an army of vampire-werewolf hybrids. Semira, a council member of the Eastern Coven, tells Thomas she wants Selene to be granted clemency and to train the coven's neophyte Death Dealers. She asks Thomas to plead Selene's case before the full council; the plea is successful and the council reluctantly agrees to a pardon in exchange for Selene's help. Selene arrives with David. Semira has Varga, her ally and lover, poison Selene and slaughter the trainees, framing Selene for the atrocity. With Selene in her power, Semira begins draining her blood, which she intends to drink to steal her power. Thomas and David attempt a rescue, but are attacked by Semira and Varga. Thomas is killed, but David and Selene escape. The pair takes refuge at the Nordic Coven, pursued by Alexia, an Eastern Coven vampire dispatched by Semira. At Var Dohr, the Nordic Coven stronghold, Elder Vidar reveals that David is the son of High Elder Amelia, and thus the legitimate heir to the Eastern Coven. Meanwhile, Alexia has told Marius, who is secretly her lover, that Selene is going to the Nordic Coven. Marius and his Lycans attack that coven. Selene and David fight alongside the Nordic vampires, who are led by Vidar's daughter Lena. Selene engages Marius in single combat, but he is too powerful in werewolf form, and she is stabbed by Alexia. Marius demands to know Eve's location, but Selene insists she does not know; Alexia confirms this after tasting blood from her sword. Marius sounds the retreat. Selene deliberately slides herself under the now broken ice of the lake, telling herself that this is the 'path'. A:
The first name of the person that wants to drink Selene's blood is Semira.

Some of the other reasons such as virus infection improper file transfer process sudden system shut down and others contribute to MOV file corruption Add punctuation.
Firstly, it's vital to break down the text into comprehensible parts or sentences that create a flow of information. Every individual idea expressed will typically end with a full stop, and minor pauses between ideas will call for commas. Here, the text seems to list reasons for MOV file corruption. Here is the punctuated version: "Some of the other reasons, such as virus infection, improper file transfer process, sudden system shutdown, and others, contribute to MOV file corruption." Here's the justification for the inserted punctuation: 1. "Some of the other reasons": This is the main introductory clause which refers to several reasons. A comma is needed after this to separate it from the upcoming list or series of items. 2. "such as virus infection, improper file transfer process, sudden system shutdown, and others": These are items of a list describing the 'other reasons' referred to in the introduction. Commas are inserted between each listed items to clearly separate these individual reasons. The conjunction "and" is used before the last reason considering standard grammar norms of writing lists. 3. "contribute to MOV file corruption": This is the conclusion made about the reasons. The comma before this part separates out the list of reasons from this concluding statement, which provides a clear understanding of the purpose behind the listed reasons. Ending the sentence with a period to signify its conclusion.

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

Title: Looks Nice - Doesn't Work Review: I would advise caution when dealing with BEKIWO. They shipped my wife the 1GB SansaExpress that arrived just in time for Christmas. Exactly what I wanted, and I couldn't wait to enjoy some music. Unfortunately, I am still waiting for that experience. After charging the unit for 4 hours on my desktop I was amazed that it would play music for about 5-7 seconds before it shut down. I have reset the unit again and again and the result is always the same, an "auto shutdown". Unfortunately once BEKIWO has your money you will never hear from them again. My first clue was the e-mail address they used to respond to our inquiry: 49jq6qddzphfgc8@marketplace.amazon.com. I have notified SanDisk that the unitis defective and hopefully they will honor thier warranty. Is this product review negative? Possible answers: -Yes; -No; Answer:
-Yes;

What is the answer for the question: Who is the writer that was healed by a tohunga? from the following article ? White Lies is a story about the nature of identity: those who deny it and those who strive to protect it. Paraiti is a medicine woman. She is the healer and midwife of her rural, tribal people - she believes in life. But new laws are in force prohibiting unlicensed healers. On a rare trip to the city, she is approached by Maraea, the servant of a wealthy woman, Rebecca, who seeks her knowledge and assistance in order to hide a secret which could destroy Rebecca's position in European settler society. If the secret is uncovered a life may be lost, but hiding it may also have fatal consequences. So Paraiti, Maraea and Rebecca become players in a head on clash of beliefs, deception and ultimate salvation.In the Extras of the DVD, Witi Ihimaera, tells how his mother took him to Paraiti, a tohunga/healer who cured him of a breathing problem. In writing the story, he wanted to honour the various tohunga in Maori life. In 1907, the New Zealand government brought in The Tohunga Suppression Act, thus outlawing natural healing for Maori. Some people believe the author of the book drew on the life of Anglo-Indian actress Merle Oberon, and the hiding of her true ethnic origin. Answer:
The writer who was healed by a tohunga is Witi Ihimaera. In the Extras of the DVD, he shares his personal experience of how his mother took him to Paraiti, a tohunga/healer, who cured him of a breathing problem.

Wir sind Teil einer globalen Wirtschaft. Could you please translate this to English?
The given German sentence, "Wir sind Teil einer globalen Wirtschaft," translates to English as "We are part of a global economy." In this sentence, "wir" means "we," "sind" translates to "are," "Teil" stands for "part," "einer" means "of a," "globalen" translates to "global," and "Wirtschaft" refers to the "economy." Thus, the statement highlights that we are all interconnected in a larger economic system that spans across countries and continents. The concept of a global economy emphasizes the interdependence of nations on one another for trade, investment, and economic growth. Being part of a global economy carries both benefits and challenges. Some advantages include access to new markets, increased competition leading to improved goods and services, opportunities for diversification, and the flow of capital and technology across borders. These factors can lead to economic growth and job creation. However, the challenges that arise from being part of a global economy include vulnerability to economic shocks, such as financial crises in other parts of the world, job displacement due to outsourcing, and environmental issues caused by unregulated growth. Also, the interconnectedness of economies can further widen the income inequality gap, both within and among countries. To navigate the complexities of a global economy, governments, businesses, and individuals need to adapt and find ways to maximize the benefits while minimizing the disadvantages. This can be achieved through international cooperation, the formation of trade agreements, and domestic policies aimed at ensuring a fair distribution of wealth and resources while promoting sustainable growth.

In November 1954, Price made her recital debut at New York's Town Hall with a program that featured the New York premiere of Samuel Barber's cycle Hermit Songs, with the composer at the piano, and began her first recital tour in the Community Concerts series for Columbia Artists. Then, the door to opera opened through television, the NBC Opera Theater series. In February 1955, she sang Puccini's Tosca for the NBC Opera Theater, under music director Peter Herman Adler, becoming the first African American to appear in a leading role in televised opera. Several NBC affiliates (not all Southern) canceled the broadcast in protest. She returned in three other NBC Opera broadcasts, as Pamina (1956), Madame Lidoine in Poulenc's Dialogues of the Carmelites (1957), and Donna Anna in Don Giovanni (1960). In March 1955, she was auditioned at Carnegie Hall by the Austrian conductor Herbert von Karajan, who was then touring with the Berlin Philharmonic. Impressed with her singing of "Pace, pace, mio Dio" from Verdi's La forza del destino, Karajan reportedly leapt to the stage to accompany her himself. Calling her "an artist of the future" he asked her management for control of her future European career. Over the next three seasons, Price crossed the U.S. in recitals with her longtime accompanist, David Garvey, and in orchestral appearances. She also toured India (1956) and Australia (1957), under the auspices of the U.S. State Department. She sang a concert version of Aida--her first public performance of the role--at the May Festival in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on May 3, 1957. Her first appearance on the grand opera stage occurred in San Francisco on September 20, 1957, singing Madame Lidoine in the U.S. premiere of the Dialogues of the Carmelites. A few weeks later, Price sang her first on-stage Aida, stepping in for Italian soprano Antonietta Stella, who was suffering from appendicitis. The following May, she made her European debut, as Aida, at the Vienna Staatsoper on May 24, 1958, at Karajan's invitation and under his baton. Debuts followed at London's Royal Opera House, Covent Garden (replacing Anita Cerquetti), and at the Arena di Verona, both as Aida. The next season she returned to Vienna to sing Aida and her first onstage Pamina in The Magic Flute, repeated her Aida at Covent Garden, sang operatic scenes by R. Strauss on BBC Radio, and made her debut at the Salzburg Festival in Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, under Karajan. The close artistic understanding between Karajan and Price was reflected in many of her early career successes in the opera house (Mozart's Don Giovanni, Verdi's Il trovatore and Puccini's Tosca), in the concert hall (Bach's Mass in B minor, Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, Bruckner's Te Deum, and the Requiems of Verdi and Mozart), and in the recording studio (complete recordings of Tosca and Carmen, and a bestselling holiday music album, A Christmas Offering). Most of her recordings and many of her live performances have been released on CD. On May 21, 1960, Price made her first appearance at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, again as Aida, becoming the first African American to sing a leading role in Italy's greatest opera house. (In 1958, Mattiwilda Dobbs had sung Elvira, the secondary lead soprano role in Rossini's L'italiana in Algeri.) Answer this question "Did she get an award?" by extracting the answer from the text above.
The text above does not provide information about her receiving an award.

Write highlights for this article: By. Ian Ladyman. Follow @@Ian_Ladyman_DM. Are Manchester United right to sack David Moyes. David Moyes will be sacked by Manchester United after the owners, the Glazer family, finally lost patience with the club’s dismal season. United are confident of landing Holland coach Louis van Gaal as his replacement once they have tied up details of their manager’s severance. The Barclays Premier League champions have already made contact with the Dutchman and he wants to join United after the World Cup. The Old Trafford board planned to sack. Moyes — just a year into a six-year contract — at the end of the season. but will now bring forward that announcement after news of their. intentions was reported by MailOnline on Monday afternoon. End of the line: David Moyes will be sacked by Manchester United and could leave before the end of the season. Under pressure: United crashed to a 2-0 defeat at Moyes's former club Everton on Sunday, their 11th defeat of the Premier League season. Searching for inspiration: Moyes has found it impossible to maintain the high standards set by predecessor Sir Alex Ferguson. Bright beginnings: Moyes started work at Old Trafford on July 1 last summer, having been announced as Ferguson's replacement in May. Played 51Won 27Drawn 9Lost 15Win percentage 52.94. Moyes, on a day off on Monday, had still not been contacted by the club on Monday night and is understood to be hurt and angry after learning of his fate on newspaper websites. He will attend trainingat Carrington today but may well not survive the week. Player-coach Ryan Giggs is lined up to replace him until the end of the season, alongside fellow Treble winner Nicky Butt, as United try to salvage some pride by finishing in the Europa League places at least. Sir Alex Ferguson, who appointed Moyes, is expected to have little or no say in who the next manager will be. News of the 50-year-old’s imminent departure broke on Monday in the wake of Sunday’s defeat at his old club Everton. However, it is understood the club decided to look for alternatives after the 2-0 reverse in the Champions League at Olympiacos in February. Meet the new boss: Moyes gets to work on his first morning as United manager at the club's Carrington training complex. Backing: Supporters on the Stretford End commissioned a banner proclaiming Moyes as the 'Chosen One' Good start: Moyes lifts the Community Shield after United beat Wigan 2-0 at Wembley back in August. It will be his only piece of silverware with the club. Winning start: United won 4-1 at Swansea City on the opening day of the season, getting their title defence off to the perfect start. Warm reception: Moyes is introduced to the Old Trafford crowd prior to his first home game against Chelsea. April 26 Norwich City (H)May 3 Sunderland (H)May 6 Hull City (H)May 11 Southampton (A) The Glazers, who are due in Manchester next week, had been supportive of Moyes but have sensed since the turn of the year that results and performances were getting worse and that some of United’s senior stars had simply stopped playing for their manager. They want to appoint a new manager — preferably Van Gaal — as soon as possible so they can tie up deals for players including. Southampton’s Luke Shaw before the World Cup. United know that it will be hard enough to attract players this summer without Champions League football and didn’t want to continue the negotiating process with a manager who had become a lame duck. Certainly not many United players will be disappointed to hear the news. Even those who like Moyes realised that things were not working, an impression that hardened when the Scot walked into the dressing room at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon and told his team they had played well. Taste of defeat: Moyes suffered his first league loss at Anfield as a Daniel Sturridge gave Liverpool a 1-0 win on September 1. Down to work: Moyes leads a training session at Carrington ahead of his first Champions League match with United back in September. Euro stars: United beat Bayer Leverkusen 4-2 at Old Trafford in their opening Champions League fixture of the season. Nightmare: The scale of Moyes's task at Old Trafford became apparent in the 4-1 defeat at rivals Manchester City on September 24. Bad to worse: Moyes can't believe his misfortune as United are beaten at home by West Bromwich on September 28. If talks with Van Gaal don’t work out as expected, United will consider alternative targets such as Dortmund’s Jurgen Klopp and Real Madrid’s Carlo Ancelotti. At 62, Van Gaal is a relatively old manager, but after the experiment with Moyes, United are aware they need a coach with the presence and the experience to cope with a club of their size and profile. United old boy Phil Neville may survive the backroom cull, as may goalkeeping coach Chris Woods after his exceptional work with David de Gea this season. Masterstroke: Moyes did persuade star striker Wayne Rooney to turn down the overtures of Chelsea and sign a new contract. Revenge: United knocked Liverpool out of the Capital One Cup at the third round stage, offering swift retribution for the Anfield loss. Passion play: Moyes celebrates Javier Hernandez's goal as United beat Stoke City 3-2 at Old Trafford. Low point: Moyes sits and considers his options as United lose 1-0 to his former club Everton on December 4. Row: Moyes grabs the ball from Hatem Ben Arfa as Alan Pardew looks on during December's 1-0 home loss to Newcastle United. Race is on: Moyes runs along the touchline to retrieve the ball during United's New Year's Day loss to Tottenham. Protest: Moyes runs on to the pitch to appeal after a blatant handball is not given in the Tottenham match. No luck: Moyes rues a missed chance as United slipped to a 2-1 defeat to Sunderland in the first leg of their Capital One Cup semi-final. Out: With coach Phil Neville after United were knocked out of the Capital One Cup on penalties by Sunderland. January sales: Moyes bought Juan Mata from Chelsea for £37m in a bid to revive the flagging season. Nadir: United produced their most miserable performance of the season as they were beaten 2-0 by Olympiacos in the first leg of their last 16 Champions League tie. The great turnaround: But a Robin van Persie hat-trick gave United a 3-0 win at Old Trafford and took them through to a last eight encounter with Bayern Munich. Anger: A fan remonstrates with Moyes during the 3-0 home defeat by Manchester City. Guarded: Stewards protect the 'Chosen one' banner on the Stretford End at the end of the City defeat. Stunt: Disgruntled United fans paid for this plane to fly over the ground during a home match with Aston Villa. The plane's appearance was roundly booed by United fans in the ground. Good display: United produced their best performance of the season in the 1-1 home draw with Bayern Munich. Beyond them: But Bayern came from behind in the second leg in Munich to win 3-1 and knock United out of the Champions League. Waving goodbye: The final straw was United's 2-0 loss at Goodison Park on Sunday. Highlights:
1. Manchester United will sack David Moyes after the Glazer family lost patience with the dismal season. 2. United is confident of landing Louis van Gaal as Moyes’s replacement after the World Cup. 3. Ryan Giggs is expected to replace David Moyes until the end of the season. 4. Sir Alex Ferguson, who originally appointed Moyes, is not expected to have a say in the next manager. 5. The Glazers want to appoint a new manager as soon as possible to tie up deals with players like Luke Shaw. 6.

Q: How long did Fox reign in the 18-49 demographics in the Nielsen ratings? A: The ratings for the first two episodes of season eleven fell 16–21% in overall viewer numbers and 24–27% in the 18/49 demo, while the season finale fell 27% in total viewer number and 30% in the 18-49 demo. Does the answer correctly answer the question
Oops, my apologies for that unrelated response. Let me explain it better for you. A: Fox reigned in the 18-49 demographic in the Nielsen ratings for a long time - about 15 years! They were on top from 2004 to 2019, mostly because they had popular shows that people in that age group loved watching.

Answer the following question: It's often difficult to remember how or why you became friends with someone, especially if you've been friends with a person forever. But because of the very specific set of circumstances, I remember exactly how Barend and I became friends. This, of course, was long before he became famous for inventing the easy-foldable map, and infamous for the series of bodies he'd decided to bury in his backyard. Barend and I became friends because he had one of the most attractive shadows I'd ever seen. I remember gazing out over the playground, watching a waning sun scatter its dying light over the monkey bars, the metal skeleton contrasting against the turquoise sky, when I noticed this kid coming toward me. He was one of those mostly invisible characters; faded jeans, dirty jacket, snot caked on his upper lip. I probably wouldn't have noticed him if not for his shadow. For some reason, his shadow immediately caught my eye. Now, I'm not one for noticing shadows in general, never really noticed a shadow before or since, but this kid had the most incredible shadow I'd ever seen. I cannot even put in words what that means. What specific set of properties make an ordinary shadow into an incredible one, I'm not sure anyone can, but his shadow was like a piece of art; I didn't necessarily understand it, but I liked it. And that's why this boring looking kid and I first became friends. Our kindergarten games were harmless and boring, but when puberty hit, Barend began to change. We were both expected to change, but I guess some kids just change more than others. Bared didn't want to kill at first. Like many overachievers in the death game, his first brush with the craft came about more or less accidentally. All the elements had been in place, with all the players and attributes coming together as if gathered by some evil force, but, even then, I really had to push the kid. Question: What is probably true about the author? Options: - the author did nothign wrong - the author is innocent - the author is evil - not enough information === The correct answer is Answer:
The correct answer is: not enough information While we know that the author became friends with Barend due to his unique shadow and witnessed Barend's transformation over time, we do not have enough information to determine if the author is innocent, did nothing wrong, or is evil. The author does mention having to "push the kid," but the context and implications of this statement are unclear. Therefore, we cannot make a definitive judgment about the author based on the given information.

Scientists fear rising energy bills may lead to an increase in obesity after discovering a link between poorly-heated homes and higher body -fat. Researchers from the University of Stirling's Behavioural Science Centre set out to explore claims that warm indoor temperatures have contributed to rising obesity levels in winter.Instead, the team found that people who live in well-heated homes are more likely to have low body mass index levels while those who keep their heating turned down or off tend to be heavier. Dr Michael Daly, behavioral scientist and senior lecturer, said: "We set out to investigate the scientific claims that cooler indoor temperatures help us maintain a healthy weight by pushing our bodies to use up more energy. In fact, the research suggests people may eat less and burn more energy when in a warmer indoor environment. The 13-year study, published in the journal Obesity, involved more than 100,000 adults across England. Researchers found reduced weight levels among people living in homes heated to above 23degC(73F), which involved about 15,000 of the households studied. Dr Daly said: "As national gas bills continue to rise faster than the rate of inflation, this research suggests the obesity could worsen where heating is turned down below comfortable levels or off for long periods to cut costs." This is not just about people who live in well-heated homes being in the financial position to afford more expensive low-calorie foods, exercise classes and sporting activities, and therefore finding it easier to maintain a low BMI level.The study took age, sex, social class and other factors into account. "The comfortable temperature of 20degC -23degC is where we feel comfortable in our clothes and are neither hot nor cold.At temperatures above this, we use more energy and we eat less because our appetite is affected." The findings of the research can be described as _ . A) horrible B) surprising C) funny D) encouraging The answer to this question is:
B) surprising

What is the missing first step of the following process: - The caterpillar eats constantly until it grows bigger - The caterpillar starts to form a cocoon around itself - The caterpillar becomes a pupa - After some time the cocoon hatches - And a butterfly is born. The answer to this question is:
The missing first step of the process is the egg stage. The detailed and long answer is as follows: 1. Egg stage: The life cycle of a butterfly begins with the female butterfly laying eggs on a suitable host plant, usually the one that provides an ideal food source for the soon-to-be-hatched caterpillars. The eggs are small, often shaped like tiny spheres or ovals, and are laid either singularly or in clusters, depending on the species. The eggs are equipped with a protective outer layer called the chorion, which keeps them safe from environmental fluctuations and predators. Additionally, a layer of fluid is present between the egg and the chorion for further nourishment. 2. The caterpillar/larval stage (mentioned in the question): Once the eggs hatch, the caterpillars emerge with a voracious appetite. In this stage, their main purpose is to consume food, specifically the leaves of the designated host plant, allowing them to grow rapidly. As they grow, the caterpillars molt or shed their outer layer of skin multiple times to accommodate their increasing size. 3. Cocoon formation/chrysalis stage (mentioned in the question): After reaching an optimal size, the caterpillar finds a safe location to begin spinning a cocoon, also known as a chrysalis or pupa, around itself. The cocoon is constructed from silk, which is secreted by the caterpillar's spinneret glands. The cocoon serves as a protective covering while the caterpillar undergoes a remarkable transformation called metamorphosis. 4. Pupa stage (mentioned in the question): Inside the cocoon, the caterpillar's body breaks down and rearranges itself into the adult butterfly form. This stage can last anywhere from a few days to several months, depending on the species and environmental conditions. During this time, the caterpillar undergoes significant changes, including the development of wings, compound eyes, and a more slender body. 5. Adult butterfly/emergence (mentioned in the question): After the metamorphosis is complete, the adult butterfly emerges from the cocoon. In this stage, the butterfly is fully formed, displaying intricate patterns and vibrant colors on its wings. Shortly after emerging, the butterfly's wings will be soft and must be expanded by pumping a fluid called hemolymph through the wing veins, after which they will harden, allowing the butterfly to fly. 6. Reproduction: As adult butterflies, their primary purpose is now to find a mate and reproduce, ensuring the continuation of their species. The entire life cycle begins anew as the female lays her eggs on a suitable host plant.

Solve this instance: Question1: How many penalties has Cristiano Ronaldo scored this season in comparison to Lionel Messi?, Question2: Are Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo the only soccer players who can score more then 50 goals in a season in Europe? Is Neymar close? Student:
First, let's break down the task and understand the problem: Task: Determine if two given questions (Question1 and Question2) have the same meaning and same answer. If they do, answer "Yes", otherwise answer "No". Now let's analyze each question: Question1: How many penalties has Cristiano Ronaldo scored this season in comparison to Lionel Messi? - This question is asking for a comparison of the number of penalties scored by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the current season. Question2: Are Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo the only soccer players who can score more than 50 goals in a season in Europe? Is Neymar close? - This question is asking if Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the only players capable of scoring over 50 goals in a season in Europe, and it also inquires about Neymar's potential to achieve a similar feat. Now it's time to compare the questions and solve the problem: Comparing the two questions, we can see that they are asking about different topics: - Question1 is about the number of penalties scored by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi during the current season. - Question2 is about whether Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the only players capable of scoring over 50 goals in a season in Europe and Neymar's potential. Since the questions are not about the same topic and do not have the same answer, the correct response is: Student: No

The 12 best memes of 2015: Runaway llamas, The Dress, Adele … A police officer. A cheeky dude (Brandon Moore) yelling “what are thooose?” at the officer’s functional, ugly footwear. Millions of loops and views and copycats later, a meme is born. The first urban dictionary entry for the phrase and practice appeared in 2011, but it was 2015 when the sport of pointing at some awful shoes (preferably Crocs) and shouting “what are those?!!” entered the mainstream. The best example is the wonderful take on the Jurassic Park theme tune (see below, 50 million Vine loops so far), which I like because it’s less mean-spirited than real life examples. In fact, the man who started the whole thing back in the summer seems kind of rude – and is now in jail. Um. It stormed collective internet consciousness in early September. Norwegian Kevin Synnes decided to embarrass his girlfriend in a store by pushing down on a bunch of toy ducks which, when pressed, emitted a loud “aaarghh!” noise. The video was then appropriated by Vine star Charlie Murphy and subsequently looped millions of times, spawning multiple variants. There has even been a mash-up with the what are those? meme. My person favourite versions are those which pay tribute to Adele and Taylor Swift. However, a Guardian investigation revealed that that the toy was not a duck, but a pelican. Listen to our interview with Kevin here. Read more: How the duck army stormed the internet It took just a 30-second snippet of Adele’s new single, Hello, debuted during the advert break of the UK television show, The X Factor, to have the singer trending worldwide on Twitter. And while the haunting piano and hushed, smoky tones beloved of millions of fans induced much excitement among those desperate to hear the full song, the clip also inspired plenty of memes. “Hello, it’s me” is a pretty meme-able phrase, and the internet did not disappoint. When the sepia-tinged video dropped, featuring the singer in an amazing coat, using a flip-phone and hanging out in an abandoned house, the memes just multiplied. Especially re: the flip-phone. One woman even texted her ex the entire lyrics to Hello, without him catching on at all. Read more: Hello, it’s me. On a flip-phone.

Minaj didn’t “throw shade” – she directly called Cyrus out, in front of a TV audience of millions. If anything, that is the direct opposite of throwing shade. The incident happened at the MTV Music Video Awards in response to an interview Cyrus gave in which she called Minaj “not very polite”. While accepting an award Minaj called Cyrus “this bitch who had a lot to say about me in the press the other day”, before ending with the perfectly passive aggressive, “Miley, what’s good?” Cue memes. Lots and lots of memes.

His internet fame, however, is courtesy of a confused reaction face meme. At one point during a day-in-life-of documentary, Thru The Lens, posted on YouTube, Young pulls a “huh?” face when his mother calls him a clown. His quizzical expression towards the camera has spawned probably the best reaction macro of 2015 and can be used for disbelief, surprise or a thousand other reactions. The 21-year-old college student Nicholas Fraser became an internet sensation when he decided to perform, in his yard, perched on a toilet, as one does, a quick cover of Next’s Too Close, but with the lyrics changed to “why the fuck you lyin’? / why you always lyin’?”) Given that people lie all of the time, and we know about it, guys, and we all want people to know that we know, Fraser’s vine caught on and inspired multiple cover versions of his cover version. Now, when your mate texts to say she is five minutes away but you know she probably hasn’t left the house yet, there’s a perfect means of responding. Thanks Nicholas.

After the Fifty Shades of Grey series of books sold so poorly , it was a punt for Universal Pictures to have taken on a film adaptation. But – oh, brave souls – it was brought to the screen in summer 2015 with Sam Taylor-Johnson at the helm and Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson starring. Given that the book had already resulted in a lot of cultural cache, it was inevitable that the film would inspire memes and jokes. The internet delivered. In particular, the “my tastes are very … singular” line (altered to “my desires are unconventional” for the internet) proved a rich seam. One of the best tracks of 2015, the video for Drake’s Hotline Bling didn’t drop until October – three months after the song’s release. But it was worth the wait. A minimalist clip, Drake shows off his unusual dance moves against different coloured backdrops inspired by artist James Turell. The rapper’s moves and pained impression inspired multiple parodies shared on YouTube, Vine and Twitter. Included below are some of the best: a dancing and adorable shiba inu (aka Doge), the Man From Another Place from Twin Peaks and perhaps best of all, some tennis backhand action. The hotline is filled with secrets pic.twitter.com/5zS0WZhGCG The most viral of viral phenomenons. A young woman took a picture of a dress in a clothes store and uploaded it to Tumblr. Why is this interesting? Because the internet was genuinely divided as to whether the dress was blue and black, or white and gold. The original Tumblr post posing the question racked up an enormous 73m page views, and a BuzzFeed piece on the dress has more than 38m page views to date. #TheDress trended for days on social media. Scientists were hauled in to explain how people could be seeing different colours. Rods and cones were mentioned. British current affairs programme Newsnight even offered its own vote. The Guardian waded in, with the definitive take. when you don't know the color of the dress pic.twitter.com/sQI7YLnjk1 A live on screen vote on tonight's Newsnight - what colour is #thedress ? Get out your phone and go to http://t.co/dRffVZfw0P at 10:30pm I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard as when I discovered the Poot Lovato meme. A Tumblr post featuring an awkward fan photograph of singer Demi Lovato posited the theory that the snap was not of Demi herself, but her secret twin sister, Poot Lovato, who had been trapped in a basement her entire life. The fable took hold and soon the internet was ablaze with hilarious and creative Poot memes. Fan-fiction was written, fan art drawn, Instagram and Twitter accounts were established and even Demi herself addressed the joke (she wasn’t amused). Then, rather, brilliantly, a sleuth dug out a paparazzi photograph of Demi-as-Poot right at the moment the fan pic was taken. It’s still funny. Read more: Poot Lovato: has the internet discovered Demi’s secret sister? On THE SAME DAY AS THE DRESS, the internet exploded with one of the great police chases of our time – two llamas on the run. The llamas, one black and one white, ran loose in Sun City, Arizona. The whole internet followed, glued to the ABC15 live stream of the runaway beasts and tracking updates on Twitter. The llamas, true heroes of freedom and an inspiration to all, had escaped from their day job in an animal therapy centre. The black llama was caught first, its emancipation ended with a cruel lassoing. The white llama ran on, but eventually, it too was caught. Still, these two were the internet’s favourite llamas since Serge, the French llama who travelled by subway. NOOOO. BLACK LLAMA CAUGHT. 😔😔😔 STAY STRONG WHITE LLAMA. LLAMA 1: We're escaping this afternoon. LLAMA 2: Alpaca bag. My personal winner for meme of 2015 is the dead raccoon, an unfortunate soul, found deceased on a Toronto street. After a man tweeted the relevant city authorities to tell them about the raccoon, the poor critter was left for hours in the same spot. Over the next 12 hours, a vigil was set up for the raccoon, documented online. A note was left, a framed photograph, notes were written. Someone gave the raccoon an unlit joint as a mark of respect. It got dark. Candles were lit. The raccoon was named Conrad. Eventually, the authorities turned up and unceremoniously dumped Conrad in a rubbish truck. Such a lack of respect. Don't quite know what to say about this sidewalk discovery except that it really brought ppl together. #deadraccoonto pic.twitter.com/BJ7efipLvq The sidewalk memorial is growing, @311Toronto. H/T @jasonwagar. #DeadRaccoonTO pic.twitter.com/3vTUf9xB7b 10:46pm #DeadRacoonTO is still here. pic.twitter.com/D9JbEuxJol Write a one or two sentence summary.
In 2015, the internet saw a surge of viral memes, with the most notable including the runaway llamas, The Dress color debate, the rise of "What are those?" and Adele's "Hello" music video. These viral sensations became part of internet culture and inspired countless remixes, discussions, and adaptations.

Here's a complex question that requires someone to reason about the input, can you answer it? At The 2012 Summit League Baseball Tournament, The top four regular season finishers of the league's seven teams met in the double-elimination tournament held at a university based in which city ?
The 2012 Summit League Baseball Tournament was held at the Alfred D. Boyer Stadium, which is located on the campus of South Dakota State University. South Dakota State University is based in Brookings, South Dakota. Thus, the city where the top four regular season finishers of the league's seven teams met for a double-elimination tournament that year, is Brookings. Brookings is situated in the eastern part of South Dakota and is the fourth largest city in the state. This city is known for its college-town atmosphere and for hosting important sports events, thanks to South Dakota State University, the state's largest institution of higher education. The Summit League Baseball Tournament is an annual event that decides the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. The double-elimination tournament format ensures that the participating teams get a fair chance, as they are expected to lose twice before getting eliminated from the competition. In 2012, the participating teams were striving for supremacy at the Alfred D. Boyer Stadium, an important sports venue in Brookings, and significant location in the field of Summit League Baseball. In general, the Summit League Baseball Tournament features the league's elite teams vying for the title, and the 2012 iteration was no different. The double-elimination design of the tournament intensifies the competition, as it allows the teams a mulligan, a second chance, after a single loss, thus adding a strategic angle to the team's approach towards the matches. Each of these elements contributes to a highly watchable, exciting baseball event for the audiences, especially the ones held in the vibrant city of Brookings, which could be considered an essential part of Summit League Baseball history.

The French have always wanted to know what it means to be a French­man. Their history has been a constant quest for national identity: a conflict between strong regional loyalties and central authority. In about 2000 b.c. Celtic tribes — probably from eastern Europe — came looking for greener pastures in the areas that are now Franche-Comté, Alsace, and Bur­gundy. At the same time, migrants from the Mediterranean countries were trickling into the south. The first recorded settlement was the trading post set up by Phocaean Greeks from Asia Minor at Massalia (Mar­seilles) around 600 b.c. , followed by other ports at Hyères, Antibes, and Nice. But the Greeks developed few contacts with the interior beyond a little commerce in olives and wine with the Celts of Burgundy. When their position was threatened by Ligurian pirates at sea and warlike tribes from inland, the merchants of Marseilles called on Rome for help. From Gaul to France In 125 b.c. , the Romans came in force, conquered the "Gallic barbarians," and set up a fortress at Aquae Sextiae (Aix-en-Provence). They took advantage of this new stronghold to create Provincia (now Provence), stretching from the Alps to the Pyrénées, in order to guarantee communications between Italy and Spain. When this province was endangered by fresh attacks from the north, Julius Caesar himself took charge, conquering practically the whole of Gaul by 50 b.c. Caesar drew Gaul's northeastern frontier at the Rhine, taking in present-day Belgium, and warned that the Ger­man­ic tribes across the river — the Franks (after whom France is named), Alamans, and Saxons — would always threaten the security of the frontier. The Romanization of Gaul sent the most energetic warriors to defend the outposts of the empire while their families settled down to work the land or build towns such as Lyon, Orange, Arles, and Nîmes, and the first great highways between them. At the same time, merchants built up a thriving trade with the rest of the Roman Empire. The pattern for the peasantry and bourgeoisie of France was thus established. Christianity was introduced into Gaul in the first century a.d. What question would one ask from this paragraph?
A five-year-old might ask: "Who were the first people in France and how did they become friends with others?"

I heard that Austin threw the candy to the parade watchers on the side of the street. And I was wondering What does Austin need to do before this? Answer:
Before Austin throws candies to the parade watchers on the side of the street, there are several steps and preparations he must go through to ensure a safe, enjoyable, and organized experience. Here is a detailed breakdown of what Austin needs to do: 1. Planning and coordinating with parade organizers: Austin needs to be part of a parade group or organization and follow the guidelines set by the parade organizers. This may include obtaining a permit, paying necessary fees, submitting an entry form, attending informational meetings, and understanding the parade's theme and expectations. 2. Adhering to safety regulations: Safety should be Austin's top priority. He must familiarize himself with any rules and regulations specific to distributing candy during parades. These could include adhering to speed limits while on a float or vehicle, using gloves or tongs for hygiene, and ensuring candies are encased in waterproof packaging. 3. Choosing appropriate candies: Austin should choose candies that are popular, individually wrapped, and safe for all ages so that everyone can enjoy them. He should avoid items that pose choking hazards for young children, anything too hard that may cause dental injuries if thrown, and candies with common allergens like peanuts. Soft and small candies like lollipops, gummy bears, or chocolate kisses are usually excellent choices. 4. Buying and storing candy: Austin should purchase enough candies to last throughout the parade and accommodate for the anticipated crowd size. If possible, bulk purchases from a wholesale store or a special sale could help save money. Once acquired, he should keep the candies in a cool, dry, and dark location to ensure their quality is maintained before the day of the parade. 5. Preparing a method of distribution: Austin needs to devise a safe and efficient method for distributing candy to parade watchers. He may want to consider using a candy launcher or device to toss candy, wear gloves when handling unwrapped candies, or have a group of fellow volunteers to help distribute the treats throughout the parade. 6. Dressing up and float decorations: If Austin is part of a float or parade group, coordinating costumes or decorating the float according to the parade's theme and guidelines will make the experience more enjoyable and visually appealing for spectators. 7. Arriving early and preparing logistics: On the day of the parade, Austin should arrive early to secure his spot, load candies onto his float or vehicle, and prepare the distribution equipment and process. He should also be aware of parade safety rules, restroom locations, and meeting points for others in his group. 8. Practicing responsible candy distribution: Once the parade commences, Austin needs to maintain a steady and reasonable candy distribution pace, focusing on not overloading certain areas or leaving others with nothing. He should also be mindful of potential hazards, such as throwing candy with too much force or targeting spectators who may not be receptive to the treat. By following these steps, Austin can ensure he is well-prepared to safely and efficiently distribute candy to parade watchers, contributing to a memorable event for everyone involved.

Given a definition of a task and a sample input, break the definition into small parts. Each of those parts will have some instruction. Explain their meaning by showing an example that meets the criteria in the instruction. Use the following format: Part # : a key part of the definition. Usage: Sample response that meets the criteria from the key part. Explain why you think it meets the criteria.
Given the task definition and input, reply with output. Read the given text and if it has abusive content then indicate via "yes". Otherwise indicate via"no". We consider the content to be abusive if it contains any of the following instances: (1) Identity Directed Abuse (e.g., Content which contains a negative statement made against an identity. An identity is a social category that relates to a fundamental aspect of individuals community, socio-demographics, position or self-representation) (2) Affiliation Directed Abuse (e.g., Content which express negativity against an affiliation. We define affiliation as a (more or less) voluntary association with a collective. Affiliations include but are not limited to: memberships (e.g. Trade unions), party memberships (e.g. Republicans), political affiliations (e.g. Right-wing people) and occupations (e.g. Doctors).) (3) Person Directed Abuse (e.g., Content which directs negativity against an identifiable person, who is either part of the conversation thread or is named. Person-directed abuse includes serious character based attacks, such as accusing the person of lying, as well as aggression, insults and menacing language.) and (4) Counter Speech (e.g., Content which challenges, condemns or calls out the abusive language of others.). Note that URLs in the text have been replaced with [Link]. Food fights are violence too, OK.
Part #1: Identity Directed Abuse Usage: An example of this could be "All millenials are lazy." The statement is negative and targets an identity (millenials), which is a demographic group. It therefore meets the criteria for identity directed abuse. Part #2: Affiliation Directed Abuse Usage: "All Republicans are selfish." This statement is negative and targets an affiliation (Republicans). Republicans are a political party which is counted as a voluntary association. It therefore fits the criterion of affiliation directed abuse. Part #3: Person Directed Abuse Usage: "Mike is a chronic liar." This statement is negative, attacks the character of an identifiable person (Mike), and accuses him of lying. Therefore, it falls into the category of person directed abuse. Part #4: Counter Speech Usage: "Your racist comments are not welcome here." This statement challenges or calls out abusive language (racist comments), therefore fitting into the category of counter speech. In the task, the command is to evaluate a given text (such as "Food fights are violence too, OK.") based on these definitions. If any of the 4 types of abusive content are identified in the sample input, the output would be "yes." If none are identified, the output would be "no".

– In the wake of the Newtown school shooting, there's one topic on every opinion writer's keyboard: guns. Is America finally ready to have a conversation about gun control? Here's what people are saying: Joe Scarborough gave an impassioned speech on Morning Joe this morning. "From this day forward, nothing can ever be the same again," he declared. Scarborough earned the NRA's top rating while in Congress, but he said that on Friday he realized "that the ideologies of my past career were no longer relevant ... It is time for Congress to put children before deadly dogma." It's absolutely OK to politicize this situation, writes Michael Grunwald at Time. "The kind of people who believe politics is inappropriate at times like this tend to be the kind of people who believe politics is trivial entertainment." Policies have consequences, and "now is the time to debate them, not to STFU." "We should mourn, but we should be angry," writes EJ Dionne in the Washington Post, calling for bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, background checks, and other reforms. "If Congress does not act this time, we can deem it as totally bought and paid for by the representatives of gun manufacturers." But David Frum thinks President Obama is the wrong man to lead the charge. "If the president—any president—inserts himself into the gun debate, he will inevitably polarize it," he reasons at CNN. An outside group modeled on Mothers Against Drunk Driving would be more effective. "Only that way can the campaign avoid being held hostage" by partisanship. Not everyone agrees that it's time to act. "The chances of being killed in a mass shooting are about what they are for being struck by lightning," points out John Fund at the National Review, arguing that gun control will be ineffective and even counterproductive. Shootings most often occur in so-called "gun-free zones" like schools, or, as one ex-sheriff calls them "helpless-victim zones." Expand this summary.
In the aftermath of the tragic Newtown school shooting, the topic of gun control has surged to the forefront of discussions in the United States. People from various walks of life are expressing their views on whether America is ready to have an earnest conversation about gun control. Joe Scarborough, who earned the NRA's top rating while in Congress, stated on Morning Joe that the ideologies of his past career were no longer relevant. He passionately declared that it was time for Congress to prioritize children's safety over dangerous dogmatic principles. Many believe that it is entirely appropriate to politicize this situation since politics should not be treated solely as trivial entertainment but should have serious real-world consequences. Michael Grunwald at Time opines that now is the time to debate the potentially life-saving policies, instead of remaining silent on the issue. EJ Dionne, writing in the Washington Post, voices a similar sentiment, stating that mourning should be accompanied by anger. He advocates for banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, implementing background checks, and introducing other necessary reforms. Dionne warns that if Congress fails to act on these measures, it will be viewed as being bought and paid for by gun manufacturers. However, David Frum at CNN argues that President Obama might not be the ideal leader to spearhead this debate, as his involvement could polarize the issue further. Frum suggests that an external group, akin to Mothers Against Drunk Driving, would be more effective in leading the charge for change in a non-partisan manner. Contrarily, some individuals, such as John Fund at the National Review, claim that it is not the right time to act on gun control. Fund points out that the odds of being killed in a mass shooting are similar to those of being struck by lightning. He argues that gun control measures would be ineffectual and possibly counterproductive, as most shootings occur in "gun-free zones" like schools, which end up turning into "helpless-victim zones." Nonetheless, the Newtown school shooting has sparked a renewed and fervent debate on the urgent need for effective gun control measures in the United States. The conversation is intensifying as impassioned opinions abound, with many calling for urgent reforms to protect innocent lives in the future.

A man has been found dead weeks after he was made to sign the Sex Offenders Register for trying to have sex with a postbox. The body of Paul Bennett was found behind a Chinese restaurant in his home town of Wigan, Greater Manchester, in the early hours of Sunday. Police said the 45-year-old's death was not being treated as suspicious. A source suggested the cause may have been drugs-related, but it has not yet been confirmed officially. Death: Paul Bennett, 45, (left) has been found dead weeks after he was made to sign the Sex Offenders Register for trying to have sex with a postbox outside a shopping centre in his home town of Wigan (right) Mr Bennett was discovered dead behind the Chinese restaurant Shanghai Palace, in the Poolstock area of Wigan, and police were called. A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: 'We were called at 1.35am on Sunday, February 22, following reports the body of a 45-year-old man was found in Poolstock. 'His death is non-suspicious so the coroner is now dealing with it.' Mr Bennett was convicted of indecent exposure last month after he was caught beside a red postbox outside Wigan's Scholes Precinct shopping centre. A woman spotted Bennett performing a sex act and rubbing himself up and down the metal pillar box while shouting 'wow' in September. The witness contacted the police as Bennett pulled up his pants and checked his reflection before leaving, Wigan Magistrates' Court heard. Incident: The 45-year-old's body was found behind the Shanghai Palace Chinese restaurant in Wigan. Magistrates were told the incident occurred after Bennett was involved in a drunken row with a woman. He was found guilty of two charges of indecent exposure, as well as using threatening and abusive words and abusive behaviour. Bennett was handed a 12-month community order with an alcohol treatment and supervision requirement, and was made to sign the Sex Offenders Register. He was also ordered to pay £50 compensation to the victim who witnessed the incident, £150 court costs and a £60 victim surcharge. Write highlights for this article.
A man named Paul Bennett was found dead behind a Chinese restaurant. Before he died, he was made to sign the Sex Offenders Register because he tried to have sex with a postbox. A postbox is a big, metal box where people put letters to send to others. The police said his death was not suspicious, and it might be because of drugs, but they are not sure yet. They found him after someone saw him acting strangely with the postbox and called the police. He had to go to court, and they told him he had to get help for his alcohol problem and sign the Sex Offenders Register. They also made him pay money to the person who saw what he did and to the court.

Q: Q: Which reaction between alkyl halides and ammonia makes alkylamines? A: Possible answers: *nitrogen catabolism; *conductive substitution reactions; *nucleophobic reactions; *nucleophilic substitution reactions; The answer is:
nucleophilic substitution reactions. The reaction between alkyl halides and ammonia to form alkylamines is known as nucleophilic substitution reactions. Alkyl halides (R-X) are organic compounds containing a halogen atom (X) bonded to an sp3 hybridized carbon atom. Ammonia (NH3) is a nucleophile, a species capable of donating a non-bonding pair of electrons to an electrophile in a chemical reaction. In a nucleophilic substitution reaction, a nucleophile (ammonia in this case) reacts with an electrophile (the alkyl halide) and replaces the halogen atom in the organic compound. The overall reaction is characterized by the breaking of the carbon-halogen bond and the formation of a new carbon-nitrogen bond, resulting in the formation of an alkylamine. The general reaction can be represented as: R-X + NH3 → R-NH2 + HX where R represents an alkyl group, X is a halogen atom (such as chlorine, bromine, or iodine), and HX is the hydrogen halide formed during the reaction. Nucleophilic substitution reactions can be categorized into two main types: SN1 and SN2 mechanisms. The choice of the mechanism depends on factors such as the structure of the alkyl halide, the nucleophilicity of the nucleophile, and the reaction conditions. SN1 mechanism (substitution nucleophilic unimolecular) involves a two-step process. First, the carbon-halogen bond breaks, resulting in the formation of a carbocation intermediate and a halide ion. Next, the nucleophilic ammonia molecule reacts with the carbocation, producing the alkylamine. This type of mechanism is favored for substrates that can form stable carbocations, such as tertiary alkyl halides. SN2 mechanism (substitution nucleophilic bimolecular) is a single concerted step where the nucleophile attacks the carbon atom while the carbon-halogen bond is being broken. This results in the direct formation of the alkylamine. The reaction proceeds through a transition state where both the nucleophile and the leaving group are partially attached to the carbon atom. SN2 mechanism is favored for primary alkyl halides and strong nucleophiles, such as ammonia. In summary, the formation of alkylamines from alkyl halides and ammonia occurs through nucleophilic substitution reactions, which can be SN1 or SN2 mechanisms depending on the structure of the alkyl halide and other reaction conditions. These reactions are essential in the synthesis of various amine-based functional groups and compounds, which have a wide range of applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science.

Question: Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer: Article: Americans have used colors to create many expressions they use every day. We say you're 'in the pink' when we are in good health. It is easy to understand how this expression was born. When my face has a nice fresh, pink color, it is a sign my health is good. The color green is natural for trees, it is an unnatural color for humans. When someone doesn't feel well, someone who is sick, for example, we say he 'looks green'. When someone is angry because he doesn't have what someone else has, we say he is 'green with envy'. Some people are 'green with envy' because someone else has more dollars, or 'green backs'. Dollars are called 'greenbacks' because that's the color of the backside of the money. Blue is a cool color. The traditional blue music of American blacks is the opposite of red hot music. It is slow, sad and soulful ( ). To be blue, of course, is to be sad. The color black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything grows wrong as a 'black day'. A 'black sheep' is the member of a family or group who always seems to be in trouble. If someone meets a 'black cat', something unlucky might happen to him. Not all the 'black' expressions have bad meaning. A company 'in the red' is losing money. If someone tells you to put someone 'in black and white', they want you to write it down. Options: A A company surely likes to be 'in the red'. B All the color expressions in the passage come from Britain English. C Not all the 'black' expressions have bad meanings. D Dollars are called 'greenbacks' because they have trees on the backside. Answer: C Not all the 'black' expressions have bad meanings. Question: Answer:

Process: - Wind and water erode rocks - The wind and water pick up sediment that came off the rocks - Sediment is carried to an area by the wind, water, air, or ice - Sediment is deposited on the same spot many times - The sediment piles on top of other sediment for a long time - The sediment near the bottom is compressed by the weight of newer sediment - The sediment becomes sedimentary rock as it is pushed together by the heavy weight - Question: suppose the wind is not blowing as much as it usually does so less sediment is being deposited happens, how will it affect LESS sedimentary rock forming. - A: more - B: less - C: no effect Answer:
B: Less If the wind is not blowing as much as it usually does, it will result in less sediment being deposited. Wind is a crucial factor in the process of erosion and transportation of sediments. When there's a decrease in wind strength, its ability to erode rocks and carry sediment will decrease as well. Similarly, water currents play an important role in the transportation and deposition of sediment. If water currents are also weaker, the sediment transport rate will reduce, causing a decrease in sediment deposition. As sediment deposition is an essential step in the formation of sedimentary rocks, a reduction in deposited sediment will directly impact this process. The reduced amount of sediment will lead to thinner layers, resulting in less sedimentary rock formation over time. When wind and water are not transporting and depositing sediment as effectively, it also affects the sediment's distribution pattern, potentially creating thinner and less extensive layers of sediment. This directly affects the formation of sedimentary rocks, as they are made up of layers of compacted sediment, meaning less pressure will be exerted on the lower layers, possibly leading to fewer or less compact sedimentary rocks being formed. In summary, if the wind is not blowing as much as it usually does and less sediment is being deposited, the formation of sedimentary rocks will be negatively affected, resulting in less sedimentary rock being produced.

Multi-select problem: How does the next paragraph end? How to collect a sterile urine sample Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Cleanse the urethra, the duct in which urine is expelled from the body, with a disinfecting towellete. Separate the folds of the female genitalia. Options: +Gently clean the vania, the small part that connects the anus and. Gently separate the labia to expose the gland beneath. +The region of the genital portion is located between the anus and the top part of the vagina. To remove the folds, you may use a muslin or silk cloth. +Cleanse using the disinfecting towellette with downward strokes. Open the sterile canister in which urine will be stored. +The tract connecting the genital folds and the vagina is referred to as the urethra. This folds and ducts is where urine enters.
+Cleanse using the disinfecting towellette with downward strokes. Open the sterile canister in which urine will be stored. The correct answer is to cleanse using the disinfecting towellette with downward strokes and open the sterile canister in which urine will be stored. This is because it explains the proper way to clean the area to prepare it for a sterile urine sample collection and mentions opening the sterile canister for storing the urine. The other options are wrong for the following reasons: -Gently clean the vania, the small part that connects the anus and. Gently separate the labia to expose the gland beneath. This option is incorrect because "vania" is not a correct anatomical term and the sentence seems incomplete. Also, it doesn't mention what to do after cleaning the area. -The region of the genital portion is located between the anus and the top part of the vagina. To remove the folds, you may use a muslin or silk cloth. This option contains irrelevant information about the genital portion and suggests using muslin or silk cloth to remove folds, which does not pertain to collecting a sterile urine sample. -The tract connecting the genital folds and the vagina is referred to as the urethra. This folds and ducts is where urine enters. This option is incorrect because it incorrectly describes the urethra's connection to the genital folds and vagina. The urethra is the duct where urine leaves the body, but the sentence structure and description here are confusing and not helpful for the task of collecting a sterile urine sample.

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

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

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

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

Please answer the following question: Here is a review left by a customer on a product. Would you say he was satisfied or dissatisfied? Title: awful Review: I really expected better. This was a horrible book. The main character, who you are supposed to sympathize with, loves the man who enslaves her own family like a father, and ridicules her mother for not wanting to be served on by slaves. Julius Lester was trying so hard to look at things from an unusual viewpoint that he turns the Pharoah into a kind, wise man, a girl who turns her back on the suffering of her family and her people for a life of luxury into a heroine, and the Jewish slaves into crazy, prejudiced people.

How do I ask a Canadian university to waive my TOEFL scores? English is my first language and I've heard universities do that sometimes. If I want to apply to Top Universities in USA and I have a 3.98 GPA, GRE scores of 167Q and 160V, 4 AWA, and a TOEFL of 112, how good are my chances? Do those questions have the same meaning?
In order to address your questions, let's break the response into two parts accordingly. 1. Asking a Canadian university to waive your TOEFL scores: It is not uncommon for universities to waive TOEFL requirements in certain situations. To request a waiver, you should follow these steps: a. Research Eligibility: Begin by checking the university's general policy regarding TOEFL waivers and find out if they have provisions for waiving the requirement based on certain conditions such as being a native English speaker or having completed previous education in English-medium institutions. b. Gather Supporting Evidence: Collect necessary documents to prove your proficiency in English. These may include certificates, transcripts, or letters from your previous educational institutions confirming that English was the medium of instruction. Additionally, you may include any awards or memberships that indicate your strong English communication skills. c. Write a Waiver Request Letter: Prepare a formal letter addressed to the admissions office or the specific department where you are applying. In the letter, clearly state your request for a TOEFL waiver and provide a rationale for the request. Be sure to include your contact information and application ID or student number (if available). Mention any relevant experience or qualifications that demonstrate your English language proficiency and attach the necessary supporting documents listed above. d. Submit the Request: Send your waiver request letter along with the supporting documents via email or as part of your online application (if the university allows it). Make sure to send your request well in advance of the application deadline, giving the university enough time to consider your request and provide a response. e. Follow Up: If you haven't heard back from the university within a few weeks, it's a good idea to follow up with the admissions office or department to check the status of your waiver request. 2. Evaluating your chances of being accepted into top universities in the USA: Admission to top universities in the USA is competitive, and each institution has its own set of selection criteria. In general, your high GPA (3.98) and competitive GRE scores (167Q and 160V) are major strengths in your application. A TOEFL score of 112 is also considered quite strong in terms of English proficiency. However, top universities often look at a range of factors beyond just academic scores: a. Letters of Recommendation: Strong recommendations from faculty or other professionals who can vouch for your capabilities and potential are an essential part of the application. b. Personal Statement or Essays: Well-written and compelling personal statements or essays that reveal your goals, interests, motivation, and unique experiences contribute significantly to your chances of admission. c. Extracurricular Activities and Work Experience: Top universities appreciate students with diverse backgrounds and experiences, including involvement in clubs, organizations, internships, research projects, or other relevant work experience. d. Specific Departmental Requirements: Depending on your field of study, individual departments might have specific requirements that you need to fulfill, such as portfolios, interviews, or additional tests. Considering all these factors, it's impossible to predict the exact chances of being accepted into top universities. However, your academic credentials are strong, and focusing on other aspects of your application (such as letters of recommendation, personal statement, and extracurricular involvement) can increase your chances of securing admission to a top university. Regarding your final question, the two initial questions are related but not identical in meaning. The first question is about requesting a TOEFL waiver from a Canadian university, while the second question seeks an evaluation of your chances of being accepted into top universities in the USA based on your credentials. While both questions concern university admissions, they focus on different aspects and are not interchangeable.

Identify the most salient words in this sentence: branch with old leaves in the winter and snow
The most salient words in this sentence - "branch with old leaves in the winter and snow" - are: 1. Branch: This word is significant as it provides the primary subject of the sentence. A branch refers to a part of a tree that grows out from the trunk or other limbs and supports leaves, fruits, and other smaller branches. Without the context of the branch, the other aspects of the sentence would be challenging to make sense of. 2. Old leaves: This phrase is highly pertinent because it adds a unique aspect to the sentence. Old leaves suggest that the leaves have been present on the branch for an extended period and have not fallen. This is an unusual occurrence in winter, as many trees shed their leaves during the fall. 3. Winter: Winter serves as the setting for the sentence and is an important word for understanding context. As a season marked by cold weather, snow, and reduced daylight, winter underlines the rarity of finding a branch with old leaves still attached. This phenomenon is out of the ordinary because most deciduous trees are bare during the winter season. 4. Snow: Snow provides additional information about the surroundings and the natural elements present in the image the sentence conveys. Snow generally accompanies cold temperatures and winter weather, thereby reinforcing the unique spectacle of finding a branch with old leaves during this season. The presence of snow emphasizes the stark contrast between the winter setting and the old leaves on the branch.

Q:Extract the answer to the question from the following context. Question: what is harrison's first name Context: Slack (2003) compares three groups that conducted biological research at Yale during overlapping periods between 1910 and 1970. Yale proved important as a site for this research. The leaders of these groups were Ross Granville Harrison, Grace E. Pickford, and G. Evelyn Hutchinson, and their members included both graduate students and more experienced scientists. All produced innovative research, including the opening of new subfields in embryology, endocrinology, and ecology, respectively, over a long period of time. Harrison's group is shown to have been a classic research school; Pickford's and Hutchinson's were not. Pickford's group was successful in spite of her lack of departmental or institutional position or power. Hutchinson and his graduate and postgraduate students were extremely productive, but in diverse areas of ecology rather than one focused area of research or the use of one set of research tools. Hutchinson's example shows that new models for research groups are needed, especially for those that include extensive field research. A:
Harrison's first name is Ross. In the context provided, it mentions Ross Granville Harrison as one of the leaders of the research groups at Yale.

Context: Francis I of France had continued his policy of seeking a middle course in the religious rift in France until an incident called the Affair of the Placards. The Affair of the Placards began in 1534, and started with protesters putting up anti-Catholic posters. The posters were not Lutheran but were Zwinglian or "Sacramentarian" in the extreme nature of the anti-Catholic content—specifically, the absolute rejection of the Catholic doctrine of "Real Presence." Protestantism became identified as "a religion of rebels," helping the Catholic Church to more easily define Protestantism as heresy. In the wake of the posters, the French monarchy took a harder stand against the protesters. Francis had been severely criticized for his initial tolerance towards Protestants, and now was encouraged to repress them. At the same time, Francis was working on a policy of alliance with the Ottoman Empire. The ambassadors in the 1534 Ottoman embassy to France accompanied Francis to Paris. They attended the execution by burning at the stake of those caught for the Affair of the Placards, on 21 January 1535, in front of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris. John Calvin, a Frenchman, escaped from the persecution to Basle, Switzerland, where he published the Institutes of the Christian Religion in 1536. In the same year, he visited Geneva, but was forced out for trying to reform the church. When he returned by invitation in 1541, he wrote the Ecclesiastical ordinances, the constitution for a Genevan church, which was passed by the council of Geneva. Question: Which event happened first, the Affair of the Placards or the return to Geneva by John Calvin? Answer:
The Affair of the Placards happened first. The event took place in 1534, when anti-Catholic protesters put up posters rejecting the Catholic doctrine of "Real Presence." This led to a more stringent stance against the protesters by the French monarchy, including Francis I of France. On the other hand, John Calvin, who escaped the persecution, returned to Geneva in 1541 after being initially forced out. He then wrote the Ecclesiastical Ordinances, which became the constitution for a Genevan church.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If your internet connection was working a few days ago, but isn't anymore, you may be able to fix the problem by performing a system restore. This will roll back your computer's settings to the date that you select. Any changes made to the system since the date will be undone. This means that programs that you've installed since the selected date will be removed, and settings will be reverted. A system restore will not affect your personal files. The fastest way to open it is to search for it, though the process varies a little depending on the version of Windows you are using: Windows 10 and 8.1 - Click the Start button and type "recovery". This will load the Recovery window in the Control Panel. Select "Open System Restore". Windows 7 and Vista - Click the Start button and type "restore". Select "System Restore" from the list of results. Restore points are created automatically whenever a change is made to your system files, such as installing a program or driver. Windows will choose the most recent restore point automatically. To view all available restore points, check the "Show more restore points" box. Choose a restore point from a date when you know your wireless adapter was working. Since restoring will roll your computer back to the date you select, programs that have been changed in that time will be affected. Click the "Scan for affected programs" button to see what will be removed or added back to your computer during the restore. Remember, your personal files will not be affected. Once you've selected your restore point and confirmed that you want to restore, Windows reboot and roll back. This may take a few moments to complete. Once the restore is finished, Windows will load and you will be informed that the restore was successful. If there was a driver or software problem causing a problem with your wireless adapter, restoring to a point before the problem occured should fix it. If you still can't get your wireless adapter to turn on, you may have to get your computer repaired or replaced.
The article provides a step-by-step guide on how to perform a system restore to fix internet connection issues by rolling back computer settings to a previously working date, emphasizing that personal files remain unaffected and that the process varies slightly across different Windows versions, ultimately suggesting computer repair or replacement if the issue persists after restoring.

Answer the following question: In 1981, when I was nine years old, my father took me to see Raiders of the Lost Ark. Although I had to squint my eyes during some of the scary scenes, I loved it – in particular because I was fairly sure that Harrison Ford’s character was based on my dad. My father was a palaeontologist at the University of Chicago, and I’d gone on several field trips with him to the Rocky Mountains, where he seemed to transform into a rock-hammer-wielding superhero. That illusion was shattered some years later when I figured out what he actually did: far from spending his time climbing dangerous cliffs and digging up dinosaurs, Jack Sepkoski spent most of his career in front of a computer, building what would become the first comprehensive database on the fossil record of life. The analysis that he and his colleagues performed revealed new understandings of phenomena such as diversification and extinction, and changed the way that palaeontologists work. But he was about as different from Indiana Jones as you can get. The intertwining tales of my father and his discipline contain lessons for the current era of algorithmic analysis and artificial intelligence (AI), and points to the value-laden way in which we “see” data. My dad was part of a group of innovators in palaeontology who identified as “palaeobiologists” – meaning that they approached their science not as a branch of geology, but rather as the study of the biology and evolution of past life. Since Charles Darwin’s time, palaeontology – especially the study of the marine invertebrates that make up most of the record – involved descriptive tasks such as classifying or correlating fossils with layers of the Earth (known as stratigraphy). Some invertebrate palaeontologists studied evolution, too, but often these studies were regarded by evolutionary biologists and geneticists as little more than “stamp collecting”. What does Harrison Ford do? - He is an actor. - He is an evolutionary biologist. - not enough information - He is a palaeontologist. Answer:
He is an actor.

If the potential job involves emergency response or high-pressure situations, then many of the behavioral interview questions will seek to understand how you behave under pressure. Think about times when you have reacted calmly and decisively to a high-pressure situation. Read over lists of the most common interview questions. If you are applying to a big-name company that fields a lot of applicants, then search online for the accounts of others who have interviewed for the same job at the same company. You don't need to rehearse and regurgitate a scripted answer. You only need to be able to reference examples that paint you in a positive light. Before the interview, make a short list of situations and projects from past jobs that might be relevant to this new position. Try to remember the details. If you cannot clearly explain what you did in a situation, then you should not use that situation as an example. Consider sketching out potential answers beforehand. Again: no need to memorize them! Simply use the writing as a tool for exploring how a given situation relates to the new job.
The article is about preparing for behavioral interview questions by understanding common challenges related to the job, using past experiences to showcase personal attitude and skills, and considering various strategies such as reviewing common questions, researching company-specific questions, and outlining potential answers without memorizing them.

You will be given a definition of a task first, then some input of the task. You are given a sentence in Hebrew. Your job is to translate the Hebrew sentence into Italian. מה אם תהיו אנונימיים רק ל 15 דקות? (צחוק) ובכן, אז, בגלל קעקועים אלקטרוניים, אולי כולכם וכולנו מאוד קרובים לחיי נצח, מפני שהקעקועים האלה יחיו הרבה יותר מגופינו. Output:
Task definition: Translate a given Hebrew sentence into Italian. Input: מה אם תהיו אנונימיים רק ל 15 דקות? (צחוק) ובכן, אז, בגלל קעקועים אלקטרוניים, אולי כולכם וכולנו מאוד קרובים לחיי נצח, מפני שהקעקועים האלה יחיו הרבה יותר מגופינו. Guidelines: 1. Understand and translate the given Hebrew sentence into Italian. Solution: Step 1: Understand the Hebrew sentence. The Hebrew sentence says, "What if you were anonymous for just 15 minutes? (Laughter) Well, then, because of electronic tattoos, maybe all of you and all of us are very close to eternal life, because these tattoos will live much longer than our bodies." Step 2: Translate the Hebrew sentence into Italian. The Italian translation of the given Hebrew sentence is: "E se foste anonimi per soli 15 minuti? (Risate) Bene, quindi, a causa dei tatuaggi elettronici, forse tutti voi e tutti noi siamo molto vicini alla vita eterna, perché questi tatuaggi vivranno molto più a lungo dei nostri corpi." Output: E se foste anonimi per soli 15 minuti? (Risate) Bene, quindi, a causa dei tatuaggi elettronici, forse tutti voi e tutti noi siamo molto vicini alla vita eterna, perché questi tatuaggi vivranno molto più a lungo dei nostri corpi.

Given a definition of a task and a sample input, break the definition into small parts. Each of those parts will have some instruction. Explain their meaning by showing an example that meets the criteria in the instruction. Use the following format: Part # : a key part of the definition. Usage: Sample response that meets the criteria from the key part. Explain why you think it meets the criteria.
Definition: Combine the given two facts to write a concluding fact. Note that there should be some parts of the first and second facts that are not mentioned in this conclusion fact. Your combined fact should be the result of a chain between the two facts. Chains form when two facts connect together to produce a concluding fact. An example of a chain is: "pesticides cause pollution" (fact1) + "pollution can harm animals" (fact2) → "pesticides can harm animals" (conclusion fact). Parts of the concluding fact overlap with the first and the second fact. To construct such a concluding fact, a useful way is to borrow the subject from one fact and the ending conclusions from another fact. Input: Fact 1: DNA is found in chromosomes. Fact 2: Chromosomes are located in the nucleus of a cell. Output:
Part #1: Determine the subject and the conclusion in each fact. Usage: In Fact 1, DNA is the subject and "is found in chromosomes" is the conclusion. In Fact 2, chromosomes are the subject and "are located in the nucleus of a cell" is the conclusion. This is important because we need to identify the overlapping parts of the facts to create a chain. Part #2: Identify the overlapping part between the two facts. Usage: The overlapping part is "chromosomes" because it is the conclusion of Fact 1 and the subject of Fact 2. This is important because it allows us to form a connection between the two facts. Part #3: Combine the unique parts of the facts, borrowing the subject from one fact and the conclusion from another. Usage: Borrowing the subject from Fact 1 ("DNA") and the conclusion from Fact 2 ("are located in the nucleus of a cell"), we form the combined fact: "DNA is located in the nucleus of a cell."

Answer the following question: Please answer the following question about this movie plot. If it's un-answerable, please output "No answer". Question: Did nitroglycerin leak? Movie plot title: Vertical Limit Movie plot: While climbing in Monument Valley, siblings Peter (O'Donnell) and Annie Garrett (Tunney) lose their father, Royce (Stuart Wilson). After two falling amateurs leave the family dangling, Royce forces Peter to cut him loose to save Peter and his sister. Peter has since retired from climbing, becoming a full-time wildlife photographer, and Annie has gone on to become a renowned mountain climber. Their relationship is strained as Annie still blames Peter for obeying Royce instead of waiting for her to secure the rope. Three years later, during a wildlife photo shoot for National Geographic in the lower Himalayas in Pakistan, Peter's assistant falls and breaks his leg and has to be evacuated by the Pakistani Army stationed in a military station that monitors avalanches. Peter is dropped off at K2 Base Camp and searches for Annie who is planning a summit attempt on K2, the world's second highest and most dangerous mountain. The expedition is funded by wealthy industrialist Elliot Vaughn (Paxton) who is also taking part as he wants to attempt climbing the K2 for the second time after his first attempt ended in tragedy with him as sole survivor. Vaughn has the help of renowned climber Tom McLaren (Nicholas Lea) and other expedition members include Pakistani mountaneer Ali Nazir. The day before the climb Vaughn throws a promotional party with all the people at base camp that is interrupted by reclusive Montgomery Wick (Glenn), reported to be the world's best climber and foremost expert on K2, who asks if it will be Vaughn or the experienced McLaren who will be making the decisions during the climb, as the team cannot have two leaders. Vaughn states that McLaren is the leader and later on explains that Wick is against him because his wife, a Sherpa guide, was one of the people who did not survive his previous expedition. During that climb, they were hit by a storm and got lost in the mountain and Wick's wife died of pulmonary edema on their way down because she forgot her supply of dexamethasone, the only medicine...

Answer based on context: Trying to snap a seven-game losing streak, the Bengals flew to New Meadowlands Stadium for a Week 12 Thanksgiving duel with the New York Jets. After a scoreless first quarter, Cincinnati trailed in the second quarter as Jets kicker Nick Folk got a 27-yard field goal. The Bengals would take the lead as quarterback Carson Palmer found wide receiver Jordan Shipley on a 5-yard touchdown pass. New York regained the lead in the third quarter with wide receiver/quarterback Brad Smith getting a 53-yard touchdown run, followed by quarterback Mark Sanchez completing a 13-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Santonio Holmes. Cincinnati tried to rally in the fourth quarter with a 28-yard field goal from rookie kicker Aaron Pettrey, but the Jets came right back with Smith's 89-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, followed by defensive end Trevor Pryce sacking Palmer in the endzone for safety. With the loss, the Bengals fell to 2-9, and were officially eliminated from postseason contention with other results in Week 12. How many total yards were gained on special teams touchdowns?
There were two special teams touchdowns in the game mentioned: 1. Brad Smith's 89-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. 2. Since it was not explicitly mentioned as a punt or kickoff return, we can consider Trevor Pryce's sack in the end zone for a safety as not relevant to the total yards gained on special teams touchdowns. So, the total yards gained on special teams touchdowns were 89 yards, from Brad Smith's kickoff return touchdown.

In this task, you need to Translate Czech text to English. Řešení se týká zavěšení pojezdových kol, zvláště terénních vozidel, kde pojezdové kolo je uloženo v náboji kola spojeném přes *sp oj ovací rameno s nábojem nápravy a je otočné kolem osy náboje kola a osy náboje nápravy. Podstata zavěšení podle řešení spočívá v tom, že mezi spojovacím ramenem a nápravou je uspořádán vychylovací člen, tvořený alespoň dvěma vzájemně pohyblivými díly, z nichž první díl je spojen s nápravou vozidla a poslední díl se spojovacím ramenem.
The solution concerns the suspension of drive wheels, particularly for off-road vehicles, where the drive wheel is mounted in the hub of the wheel connected through a *connecting arm to the axle hub and is rotatable around the axis of the wheel hub and the axis of the axle hub. The essence of the suspension according to the solution lies in the fact that between the connecting arm and the axle, a deflection member is arranged, formed by at least two mutually movable parts, of which the first part is connected to the vehicle axle and the last part is connected to the connecting arm.

You are given a sentence in Portuguese. Your job is to translate the Portuguese sentence into Spanish. São mais prudentes. Estão mais alerta.
To come up with the translation, first, I identified the subject and verb of the sentence in Portuguese. São (they are) and Estão (they are) are the verbs, and ‘mais prudentes’ (more prudent) and ‘mais alerta’ (more alert) are the subjects. Next, I identified the equivalents in Spanish for each of these subjects and verbs. In this case: - São -> Son (they are) - Estão -> Están (they are) - mais prudentes -> más prudentes (more prudent) - mais alerta -> más alerta (more alert) Finally, I arranged the translated subjects and verbs in the correct order in Spanish to form the final translated sentence: Son más prudentes. Están más alerta. I used the definition of the individual words in Portuguese and their Spanish equivalents to come up with the translation, as well as following the grammar rules of both languages.

Q:What is the first name of the person who was a central figure in the development of rockabilly? Answer the above question based on the context below: Presley was a central figure in the development of rockabilly, according to music historians. "Rockabilly crystallized into a recognizable style in 1954 with Elvis Presley's first release, on the Sun label", writes Craig Morrison. Paul Friedlander describes the defining elements of rockabilly, which he similarly characterizes as "essentially ... an Elvis Presley construction": "the raw, emotive, and slurred vocal style and emphasis on rhythmic feeling [of] the blues with the string band and strummed rhythm guitar [of] country". In "That's All Right", the Presley trio's first record, Scotty Moore's guitar solo, "a combination of Merle Travis–style country finger-picking, double-stop slides from acoustic boogie, and blues-based bent-note, single-string work, is a microcosm of this fusion." While Katherine Charlton likewise calls Presley "rockabilly's originator", Carl Perkins has explicitly stated that "[Sam] Phillips, Elvis, and I didn't create rockabilly." and, according to Michael Campbell, "Bill Haley recorded the first big rockabilly hit." In Moore's view, too, "It had been there for quite a while, really. Carl Perkins was doing basically the same sort of thing up around Jackson, and I know for a fact Jerry Lee Lewis had been playing that kind of music ever since he was ten years old."At RCA, Presley's rock and roll sound grew distinct from rockabilly with group chorus vocals, more heavily amplified electric guitars and a tougher, more intense manner. While he was known for taking songs from various sources and giving them a rockabilly/rock and roll treatment, he also recorded songs in other genres from early in his career, from the pop standard "Blue Moon" at Sun to the country ballad "How's the World Treating You?" on his second LP to the blues of "Santa Claus Is Back in Town". In 1957, his first gospel record was released, the four-song EP Peace in the Valley. Certified as a million seller, it became the top-selling gospel EP in recording history. Presley would record gospel periodically for the rest of... A:
The first name of the person who was a central figure in the development of rockabilly is Elvis. This is evident from the context provided, which mentions that "Presley was a central figure in the development of rockabilly, according to music historians" and "Rockabilly crystallized into a recognizable style in 1954 with Elvis Presley's first release, on the Sun label." Also, Paul Friedlander characterizes rockabilly as "essentially ... an Elvis Presley construction." While other musicians like Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis were also playing a similar style of music around that time, it was Elvis Presley who became the central figure in the development and popularization of rockabilly. With his unique vocal style, blending of different music genres, and versatile song choices, Elvis Presley was pivotal in shaping and defining the rockabilly sound.
