Unlike any other vertebrates, a turtle's shell is a modified ribcage and part of the vertebral column that has grown outward to fuse with the overlying skin and scales, called scutes. This unique structure provides turtles with a sturdy and resilient shield against predators, offering protection to their softer body parts. The shell's upper section, called the carapace, is domed and can deflect direct attacks, while the lower section, or plastron, safeguards the turtle's belly. Some species, such as box turtles, even have a hinge on their plastron, allowing them to completely close their shell for maximum protection. The shell also aids in camouflage and, in aquatic species, can assist in streamlining for swimming. While often perceived as a passive form of defense, a turtle's shell is a dynamic tool crucial to their survival across diverse environments.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Not only couldn’t she fly, but she hardly had any magical powers, since fairy magic comes from their delicate crystal wings.\n\nSo, from an early age, Adalina had depended on the help of others for many things. She grew up thanking people, smiling and being friendly, so naturally all the creatures in the forest were delighted to help her.\n\n\nBut when she reached the age to become Queen, many fairies doubted she could be a good Queen with such a disability. They argued and protested so much that Adalina had to agree to take a test in which she would have to demonstrate to everyone the wonders she could work.\n\nThe little fairy became extremely sad. What could she do? She was hardly magic at all, and couldn't even travel far with those little legs of hers. But while Adalina sat on a stone next to the river, trying to think of something that would surprise the other fairies, the news of the test was spreading among the friendly forest animals. Before long, hundreds of creatures were by her side, ready to help her however she needed.\n\n\n-“Thank you so much, little friends.

For the whole day and night you could see squirrels, mice, frogs, birds and fish leaping through the sky, filling it with light and colour, in a spectacle never seen before and that filled the forest dwellers with delight.\n\nAdalina was declared Queen of the Fairies, despite her not knowing from where such a powerful magic had come.

This is because fairy power comes from the wings. \n\nTherefore, Adalina had to depend on others for help. She was extremely grateful for the help she would receive. She made sure that she always smiled and thanked people. Adalina was loved by the forest creatures due to her affectionate nature. \n\nWhen the time came for her to be Queen, many people doubted her abilities since they did not deem her as powerful.

There was a big square courtyard in the middle of the school called \"the quad\" where students would walk on their way to their classes. My classes were very far apart, literally at opposite ends of the school. I am very tired now from all the walking around.\n\nBut I enjoyed my first day of high school. Everyone seemed a lot older and more mature, and there weren't any nonsense or \"kid\" behaviors. Everyone seemed like they were determined to study and work hard, and hardly anyone disrupted the class during lessons.\n\nLunch was great. There were so many different foods, and you could get more than one meal as long as you paid for it. They even had chocolate milk! I really enjoyed today's meal: roast turkey with gravy and stuffing. The cafeteria was crowded but the building was so big that there were still many seats where I could sit down to eat.\n\nI met some new people today. I also got to see my old friends from intermediate school. I have several classes with my old friends and I made new friends in the other classes.\n\nOverall, I am really enjoying high school.

Please convert the provided information into a detective's journal entry.\n\nA panel of historians set up to review the 1972 attack on the Munich Olympics is starting its three-year mission to examine what happened before, during and after the events of five decades ago on Tuesday, the German government said.\n\nIn April, Germany's Interior Ministry named the eight-member international commission of experts, most based in Israel or Germany. That was part of an agreement last year with relatives of the 11 Israeli team members who were killed by Palestinian militants.\n\nThe panel's first meeting was being held at the Interior Ministry on Tuesday. Interior Minister Nancy Faeser pledged that “the events surrounding this terrible attack will finally be examined thoroughly and transparently.”\n\n“The research findings should deliver answers to the many unresolved questions — answers which the German government has owed the victims’ family members and the public for more than 50 years,” Faeser said in a statement. Her ministry said there would be “regular publications and events.”\n\nIn September, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier apologized for multiple German failures before, during and after the attack as he joined his Israeli counterpart and relatives of the slain athletes at a ceremony marking the 50th anniversary.\n\nDays earlier, an agreement for the relatives to receive a total of 28 million euros ($30 million) in compensation headed off a threatened boycott of the event. The sum included much smaller payments made earlier.\n\nGermany also agreed to acknowledge failures by authorities at the time and to set up the expert review.\n\nOn Sept. 5, 1972, eight members of a Palestinian group called Black September clambered over the Olympic village's unguarded fence. They burst into the building where the Israeli team was staying, killing wrestling coach Moshe Weinberg and weightlifter Yossi Romano.\n\nSome Israeli athletes managed to escape but nine were seized. The captors demanded the release of more than 200 Palestinians held by Israel and two German left-wing extremists in West German prisons.\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Entry: 30th May, 2023\n\nThe task at hand is no common one, not a mere question of theft or deceit, but of unearthing long-buried secrets from the tumultuous past. It seems the German government, still haunted by the ghosts of the tragic 1972 Munich Olympics, has entrusted the monumental task of unraveling the events of yesteryears to a group of esteemed historians. In the spring month of April, the German Interior Ministry carefully selected an assembly of eight learned minds, mostly hailing from Israel or the Fatherland, in response to an agreement with kin of the unfortunate Israeli athletes. Lives were lost to the ruthless hands of Palestinian militants, a wound that remains open to this day.\n\nToday, under the stoic gaze of the Interior Ministry's stone walls, they held their maiden meeting. Nancy Faeser, a woman of high authority and Minister of Interior, was solemn in her pledge that the dark clouds shrouding the events of the horrendous attack would finally part to let in the light of transparency. \"The answers which we owe to the victims' family members and the public shall finally be given, answers that have been entombed for more than 50 years,\" she declared with firm resolve. The Ministry's plan was clear: regular publications and scholarly events to slowly but steadily lift the veil of mystery. As I recollect, the German President, one Frank-Walter Steinmeier, offered his public apologies for the German shortcomings, extending his remorse to the Israeli nation and the relatives of the fallen athletes. This was during a ceremony in September, marking half a century since the dark incident unfolded. In an attempt to ameliorate the situation, the German state proposed a settlement of 28 million euros for the bereaved, a part of which had been disbursed prior. An admission of previous authorities' inadequacies was made, as well as the promise of a deep-dive review.\n\nThe shadows of that grim day on Sept. 5, 1972, remain in the annals of history. Eight members of the notorious group Black September breached the Olympic village's paltry defenses. The Israeli team's quarters became the setting for a macabre scene, with the wrestling coach Moshe Weinberg and weightlifter Yossi Romano losing their lives in the ensuing struggle. As the harsh narrative of the past unfolds, it's clear some Israeli athletes made a successful escape, while others weren't as fortunate. The truth, it seems, is still hidden in the shroud of time, and this new commission seeks to unveil it. The stage is set, and I shall keep my eye on the proceedings.", "role": "assistant" } ]

In other lanes, slightly older children were learning to take their first paddles all on their own.\n\nThe little girl in our story was one of those “first paddlers”. She loved jumping and splashing in the pool, and so doing everything on her own. She looked to the side wall where her father was sitting. “Daddy, watch this!” she shouted, before leaping off the steps and propelling towards the platform set up in the water. Daddy smiled. She had come such a long way in these classes and could now really do lots of things on her own. \n\nThe first half of class involved instruction on things like flipping and back floats, but the second half of class was the little girl’s favorite part. Less instruction, and more splashing! They got to take turns jumping off the deck of the pool, only to turn around, return to the deck, and pull themselves out. She was determined to make the biggest splash she’d every done today. Her leap was so big, and her splash was so giant, it was hard to argue she didn’t succeed.\n\nClass ended with a “washing machine” where all the kids hang on the teacher while she spins them around in the water. Everyone giggles and laughs at that one. Leaving the pool, she ran back to her daddy who was waiting with a towel to make her dry and warm.

It is alarming and unnerving,” said GOP Rep. Andrew Murr, chair of the General Investigating Committee, during his closing statement following hours of debate. The committee recommended 20 counts of impeachment against Paxton.\n\nDemocrat Rep. Harold Dutton was one of the members voting present. He said the impeachment vote had been rushed. “The process by which we’re getting this done seems to be abbreviated to the point that it just encroaches on due process,” said Dutton.\n\nPaxton denied wrongdoing in a Friday news conference, but focused his statements against the impeachment this week on his record as a key opponent of President Joe Biden. Paxton’s office has filed dozens of lawsuits against the Biden administration.\n\nThe now-suspended attorney general called the impeachment a “politically motivated sham” in a statement just minutes after the vote.\n\n“The ugly spectacle in the Texas House today confirmed the outrageous impeachment plot against me was never meant to be fair or just,” he said.\n\nPaxton said he was never given a chance to present evidence refuting the findings of an investigation that he abused his office.

The office also released a report it commissioned from an outside law firm, although the report from Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard and Smith LLP notes it is based only on information and testimony provided by the attorney general’s office.\n\nRepublican Governor Greg Abbott can appoint a provisional replacement while Paxton is temporarily suspended. Paxton would be reinstated if he is acquitted at his Senate trial.\n\nThe impeachment vote had its origins in an investigation launched in March by the General Investigating Committee of the Texas House after Paxton had asked the legislature to approve $3.3 million in government funds to settle a lawsuit with four whistleblowers who were fired from his office.\n\nThat investigation led the committee – a five-member panel investigating corruption in state government – to approve 20 articles of impeachment Thursday, setting up the vote in the full House.\n\nDuring the debate Saturday, Rep. Charlie Geren, who is a Republican, claimed Paxton had threatened fellow House members.\n\n“I would like to point out that several members of this House, while on the floor of this House doing the state’s business, received telephone calls from General Paxton personally threatening them with political consequences in their next election,” Geren said.\n\nOpponents of the impeachment largely declined to address the allegations against him, instead focusing on the investigation leading up to the proceedings. “I don’t think today is about whether there’s guilt or innocence.

He went on to say, “What you’re being asked to do today is to impeach without evidence. It is all rumor. It is all innuendo. It is all speculation.”\n\nPaxton’s impeachment is a stunning rebuke of a Republican official in a state where the GOP controls all levers of state government. Voters in Texas shrugged off the swirling scandals around Paxton last year, handing him a third term in November’s election. Paxton had earlier fought off multiple opponents for the GOP nomination, including Bush family scion George P. Bush, the state land commissioner, whom he easily bested in a runoff.\n\nPaxton has long been a controversial figure who has clashed with Texas legislative leadership.

The only two elected officials to lose office as a result of impeachment were Gov. James Ferguson in 1917 and District Judge O.P. Carrillo in 1975.\n\nFor Paxton to be removed from office, two-thirds of the Texas Senate’s members who are present will have to vote to convict him.

Just make sure to pack some thermal undies, patience, and a sense of humor.\n\nI like to call Saturn our solar system's *Lord of the Rings*. It's such an amazing planet, Saturn delivers!\n\nSaturn is like the Queen Bee of the solar system, with blinged-out rings that put the most extravagant of diamonds to shame. Those rings, made of countless particles of ice and rock, create a sparkling spectacle that makes Saturn the most fashion-forward planet in our neighborhood.\n\nAnd let's talk about Saturn's love of earth tones. Saturn is a beautiful blend of yellow, brown, and beige. Its colors swirl and sway, putting on the most beautiful show for all to see. But the atmosphere, with winds that can reach up to 1,000 mph, makes you think that Saturn is angry. It throws massive storms that can last for months.\n\nAs for Saturn's hospitality, well, let's just say that this planet isn't exactly a bastion of warmth. With an average temperature of -285 degrees F, you'd better bring all of the space blankets if you want to visit.\n\nI can't review Saturn without mentioning Saturn's sense of humor. It's got a bit of a reputation for being a prankster, thanks to its habit of playing tricks on astronomers throughout history. First, it was Galileo, who mistook the rings for \"ears\" on the planet. Then it was Christiaan Huygens, who thought the rings were two separate planets until he clarified and saw that they were discs around the planet. \n\nSo, in conclusion, while there are a few cons in the meteorological categories, Saturn is mostly \"pros\". I would highly recommend a trip there if you're looking to visit a planet that's a little bit flashy, mysterious, and a whole lot of fun!\n", "role": "assistant" } ]

Needless to say, this obsession doesn’t bode well for either of them.\n\nThe most common advice on competition is two-fold: “competition is for losers” and “compete with your past self.” Both sound great but aren’t always super helpful. Let me elaborate.\n\nYour ultimate goal is to become a monopoly and get out of the rat race. That is what the first adage is all about. This essentially means: don’t play others’ games. Do things differently. Create your own game.\n\nThis is good advice but you don’t always have the luxury to create your own rules, especially when you are only trying to get promoted before your (rival) friend.\n\nThe second adage is about having a growth mindset. Competing with others can be stressful and in fact degrade our performance. We should instead measure ourselves against our past selves and see how far we have come.

Part of this is because of the rise of streaming. While 30 Rock was never a ratings winner in its day, people have consistently discovered it years later on Netflix and Peacock. But it’s also the way that the show’s astute satirization has aged so well.

It’s a season that also sees Jack Donaghy’s relationship with Congresswoman Celeste “CiCi” Cunningham (Edie Falco), Carrie Fisher’s guest appearance, “Werewolf Bar Mitzvah,” Sandwich Day, and the whole cast coming together for a rousing performance of Gladys Knight & the Pips’ “Midnight Train To Georgia.” The latter moment comes at the end of “Episode 210,” an installment that serves both as a midseason premiere and a makeshift finale. The script was the final one written before the 2007-08 writers’ strike, and when the episode was filmed in November, no one knew when they would be able to return to production.\n\nThe strike wasn’t a surprise; the series included a joke four episodes prior about a news crawl on MSNBC being affected by it. “Episode 210” was filmed a month before the strike officially kicked off, so it stands to reason that there was enough time to plan a gag to go out on. The whole episode builds to this gag. When a cappuccino machine finds a home on Kenneth’s desk, he becomes addicted to caffeine, eventually dubbing New York the “21st-century city of Sodom,” and now that he’s been “sodomized,” he chooses to pack it up and board the train back to his home in Stone Mountain, Georgia.

Obsessing about how much time you have left to sleep can be a major distraction.\n \n*Wind Down with a Routine\nSet a fixed routine before bed to signal your brain that it's time to call it a night. Try taking a bath, reading, or doing some light stretching to get your body and mind ready for sleep.\n\n*Sleep-Friendly Foods\nWhat you eat can impact your sleep quality. Avoid sugary, or spicy foods before bed. They can cause indigestion, especially in heavy foods. Go for sleep-friendly snacks like bananas, almonds, or a warm cup of chamomile tea.\n\n*Nap Smart\nIf you don't want to throw off your nightly sleep schedule, timing your naps during the day is key. Don’t nap too late in the day or for too long. Keeping naps around 20-30 minutes can help you feel refreshed without interfering with your nighttime sleep.\n\n*Boo Busters\nEncourage your kids to think of a brave, confident superhero who can fight off any nighttime fears that might come their way. This will help them fall asleep easier and avoid nightmares.\n\n*Quiet Quackers\nAre your kids kept awake by the sounds of the outside world? Give them earplugs or a noise machine to block out any distracting sounds and help them drift off to sleep peacefully.\n\n*Tick-Tock Timers\nIt's good to have a proper bedtime every day to train your body to know when it's time to sleep. Set a consistent sleep schedule for your child. Start with a set bedtime that allows them to get the recommended amount of sleep for their age.\n\n*Dreamy Drifters\nSome kids may feel restless or anxious before bedtime. You can tell them to try gentle stretches. Deep breathing exercises and mental visualizations can also calm the mind and prepare the body for quality sleep.", "role": "assistant" } ]

This game is often played with two teams of two, but it can also be played with just two players. During each hand, players estimate how many tricks they think they can take with the hand they've been dealt - keeping in mind that spades are wildcards. Get ready to wager against your opponents!\n\n- Oh Pshaw. This game doesn't require partners, so it can be played by three to seven players. Each consecutive hand will have more cards as cards are progressively dealt as the game goes on. The trump card is important and changes every round. This is a lively game that will keep you on your toes!\n\n- Pitch. This is another single-player game that can be played with three to seven players, but it can be adapted to play with two teams of two. It involves bidding on tricks, and the player with the highest bid becomes the pitcher.

[ { "content": "Use the facts found in this article to answer the following questions.\n\n1) Where and when was Nikola Tesla born?\n2) In 1894, Tesla was photographed with which of his friends?\n3) Where did Tesla live between 1898 and 1900?\n4) How much was Tesla paid for digging ditches in New York?\n\n\nNikola Tesla’s Early Years \nNikola Tesla was born in 1856 in Smiljan, Croatia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His father was a priest in the Serbian Orthodox church and his mother managed the family’s farm. In 1863 Tesla’s brother Daniel was killed in a riding accident. The shock of the loss unsettled the 7-year-old Tesla, who reported seeing visions—the first signs of his lifelong mental illnesses.\nDid you know? During the 1890s Mark Twain struck up a friendship with inventor Nikola Tesla. Twain often visited him in his lab, where in 1894 Tesla photographed the great American writer in one of the first pictures ever lit by phosphorescent light.\nTesla studied math and physics at the Technical University of Graz and philosophy at the University of Prague. In 1882, while on a walk, he came up with the idea for a brushless AC motor, making the first sketches of its rotating electromagnets in the sand of the path. Later that year he moved to Paris and got a job repairing direct current (DC) power plants with the Continental Edison Company. Two years later he immigrated to the United States.\nNikola Tesla and Thomas Edison \nTesla arrived in New York in 1884 and was hired as an engineer at Thomas Edison’s Manhattan headquarters. He worked there for a year, impressing Edison with his diligence and ingenuity. At one point Edison told Tesla he would pay $50,000 for an improved design for his DC dynamos. After months of experimentation, Tesla presented a solution and asked for the money. Edison demurred, saying, “Tesla, you don’t understand our American humor.” Tesla quit soon after.\n1. The shock of his brother’s death turned him into a mystic—at age seven. The defining event of young Nikola’s childhood was the day he witnessed the death of his older brother Dane in a riding accident. In the years following the tragedy, Tesla (the son and grandson of Serbian Orthodox priests) began seeing visions […]\nNikola Tesla and Westinghouse \nAfter an unsuccessful attempt to start his own Tesla Electric Light Company and a stint digging ditches for $2 a day, Tesla found backers to support his research into alternating current. In 1887 and 1888 he was granted more than 30 patents for his inventions and invited to address the American Institute of Electrical Engineers on his work. His lecture caught the attention of George Westinghouse, the inventor who had launched the first AC power system near Boston and was Edison’s major competitor in the “Battle of the Currents.”\nWestinghouse hired Tesla, licensed the patents for his AC motor and gave him his own lab. In 1890 Edison arranged for a convicted New York murderer to be put to death in an AC-powered electric chair—a stunt designed to show how dangerous the Westinghouse standard could be.\nBuoyed by Westinghouse’s royalties, Tesla struck out on his own again. But Westinghouse was soon forced by his backers to renegotiate their contract, with Tesla relinquishing his royalty rights.\nIn the 1890s Tesla invented electric oscillators, meters, improved lights and the high-voltage transformer known as the Tesla coil. He also experimented with X-rays, gave short-range demonstrations of radio communication two years before Guglielmo Marconi and piloted a radio-controlled boat around a pool in Madison Square Garden. Together, Tesla and Westinghouse lit the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago and partnered with General Electric to install AC generators at Niagara Falls, creating the first modern power station.\nNikola Tesla’s Failures, Death and Legacy \nPlay Video\nIn 1895 Tesla’s New York lab burned, destroying years’ worth of notes and equipment. Tesla relocated to Colorado Springs for two years, returning to New York in 1900. He secured backing from financier J.P. Morgan and began building a global communications network centered on a giant tower at Wardenclyffe, on Long Island. But funds ran out and Morgan balked at Tesla’s grandiose schemes.\nTesla lived his last decades in a New York hotel, working on new inventions even as his energy and mental health faded. His obsession with the number three and fastidious washing were dismissed as the eccentricities of genius. He spent his final years feeding—and, he claimed, communicating with—the city’s pigeons.\nTesla died in his room on January 7, 1943. Later that year the U.S. Supreme Court voided four of Marconi’s key patents, belatedly acknowledging Tesla’s innovations in radio. The AC system he championed and improved remains the global standard for power transmission.\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "1) Nikola Tesla was born in 1856 in Croatia. \n2) In 1894, Tesla was photographed with his friend Mark Twain.\n3) Between 1898 and 1900, Tesla live in Colorado Springs.\n4) Tesla earned $2.00 a day for digging ditches in New York.", "role": "assistant" } ]

With consideration to your band's genre and theme of music, here are some band names that use each of those special characters: !@#$%^&*\n\n1) Dr!nkn'\nThis name is a play on words for one of the popular themes in country music: drinking. The exclamation point also represents the surprise and excitement of drinking with your friends. In terms of art, the exclamation point may also symbolize someone on their head, upside down, symbolizing the wacky adventures that may proceed during a night of drinking.\n\n2) @L@B@M@\nThis name substitutes all the letter A's in the word \"Alabama\", with the special character, \"@\". Having multiple instances of this special character may create a neat illusion of the band's name swirling and spinning.\n\n3) NeedleInA#\nThis name mimics the common saying of, \"looking for a needle in a haystack\". The word \"needle\" is a double entendre and may refer to an actual needle of a record player or a physical needle, while the word \"haystack\" was replaced with the special character \"#\", loosely resembling a compressed haystack. Haystacks are also commonly found on farms and in barns.\n\n4) $outh$wamp\nWith many southern states in America having swamps as part of their geographic terrain, this band name references that landscape while replacing the letter S's in \"SouthSwamp\", with the special character, \"$\". The special character also may resemble a slithering snake, an animal commonly found in swamplands.\n\n5) 100%Hennessey\nSimilar to the band name Dr!nkn', this name references Hennessey, an alcoholic brandy popular in the South. The \"100%\" portrays a complete and focused dedication to having fun, going all out, and drinking with friends, which are themes in some popular country music songs.\n\n6) Sun^Overalls^\nThis band name interprets the phrase \"Sun's up, overall's up\", meaning that at sunrise, a farmer would pull up and wear their overalls to begin their day on the farm. The word \"up\" was replaced with the special character, \"^\", symbolizing an up direction pointing north, thus creating the band name, Sun^Overall^.\n\n7) Moon&Shine\nSimilar to Dr!nkn' and 100%Hennessey, this band name references moonshine, a high-proof whiskey, traditionally made illegally, especially in the South where it continues to remain popular. This band name bifurcates the word \"moonshine\" into two independent words, moon, and shine, reattached with the special character, \"&\", and pronounced simply: moonshine.\n\n8) Southern*\nThis band name takes the name \"Southern Star\" and replaces the word \"Star\" with the special character, \"*\", resembling a star in the night sky. Although Southern Star is not intentionally referencing anything in particular, the stresses on the consonants make the pronunciation of this band name easy and fun to say, with intentional stress placed on the \"S\" letters in this band name.", "role": "assistant" } ]
