Some questions to consider include, how much will the insurance cost for this make and model of car? How often will the car need to be serviced? Are spare parts affordable/ easily accessible? What other consumables will be required for the car?\n- Intended use: consider the likely frequent use of the vehicle. Will you need it mostly for in-city or off-road use? What is the general state of the roads on which you will drive? What purpose will the vehicle serve? How many people are likely to use the vehicle at any given time? These considerations will help you decide on the type of car you may need.\n- Individual ability: consider the transmission type that you prefer or are licensed to drive. What class of vehicle are you authorised to drive? Does your license permit you to drive a manual or automatic transmission vehicle, or both? Which transmission type do you feel most comfortable or confident driving?\n- Fuel type: consider the car's required fuel type. Is the required fuel readily available and/or affordable? Are there any local or statutory regulations regarding fuel type that you need to adhere to?\n- Safety features: it is a good idea to consider the safety features of the vehicle you would like to purchase. As a bare minimum, seatbelts should be available and in working order. What else is important to you, safety-wise?\n- State of the vehicle at purchase: would you like a brand new or preloved vehicle? For each alternative, consider purchasing from reputable dealers.\n\nPutting thought into these considerations will help you make an informed choice and enjoy your new vehicle.

I need 6 ideas, and I would love at least 3 of them to be more creative/unique/unconventional. Thank you!", "role": "user" }, { "content": "I'm sorry to hear about your father's passing, but it's wonderful you want to do something special with his ashes. Here are 6 ideas:\n\n1. Scattering: Scattering ashes is a very popular way to commemorate your loved one. If he had a favorite place or somewhere the two of you enjoyed spending time together, you could scatter them there. It may bring you comfort to know he is somewhere he loved dearly. Of course, you should always check the regulations and rules concerning the disposal of human remains in your chosen location before you go ahead with this decision.\n2. Jewelry: Many people opt to wear jewelry containing the ashes of their loved ones to feel close to them, such as rings or necklaces. There are many options to choose from to suit your style and taste. You can buy a pendant necklace with a hollowed-out center and funnel a small pinch of his ashes inside, or you can have a piece custom-made to incorporate the ashes right into the metal. Some companies even make it possible to convert ashes into a man-made diamond, which you can then have placed in any setting you prefer. To add a personal touch, you can get the jewelry piece engraved, perhaps with your loved one's name or a sentimental saying.\n3. Trees: For lovers of nature, this is a wonderful way to use their ashes. The remains are planted in a biodegradable urn along with soil and a sapling which are then planted in the ground. Over time, the tree absorbs nutrients from the ashes as it grows, which means the ashes will forever become a part of the tree.\n4. Fireworks: For someone outgoing with a bright and bubbly personality, fireworks would make the perfect send-off. Some companies make fireworks that incorporate ashes so you can have an unforgettable and beautiful fireworks display to remember your loved one with.\n5. Ashes tattoo: For fans of body art, this is a unique and permanent way to commemorate a loved one. For this process, some of the ashes would be mixed with tattoo ink and used to complete the tattoo as normal. The design of the tattoo is up to you, but some wonderful commemorative tattoo ideas include a portrait of your loved one, lyrics to their favorite song, a beloved phrase or saying of theirs, or their name. It is worth noting that this isn't a standard request and not all tattoo artists would be willing to perform such a task. You should take your time to research artists who have significant experience with this style of tattoo.\n6. Vinyl: If your loved one was a huge music fan, this is the ultimate way to commemorate them. The ashes of your loved one can be pressed into a vinyl record with the audio of your choice. It will look and play just like a standard record. You can use their favorite song or even a recording of their voice if you have one.", "role": "assistant" } ]

It’s Bella the Golden Retriever, author of \"How to Train Your Human\". Whether you have a new human in your life or you have had the same human for a long time, training is important to ensure a happy life for both of you. Today I will share some tips to get your human to pay attention to you while they are working on their computer. Whether they are working from home or talking to another human, it’s important to be able to get their attention when you want it. So, grab some treats, and let’s dive in! Here are some tips:\n\n1. Try putting your head in your human’s lap and looking at them adoringly. If you are a smaller dog, you can put your paws on their leg or jump into their lap if there is room. This will almost always guarantee a pat on the head or, sometimes, a kiss. Often, humans will tell you that you are \"such a good dog\" or that you are \"so pretty\"\n2. Go and get your ball or any toy that you like to play with and drop it at their feet. This will not always get your human to play with you, but it will sometimes work if they are ready for a break.\n3. If you have a cat in the house, it is always a good idea to initiate a play session, causing the cat to tear around the house while you chase it. This will distract your human and get them to pay attention to you.\n4. Barking or whining is always an option, but often this seems to irritate the human, which should be avoided if possible. However, sometimes it is necessary if they are not responding to other cues.\n\nThere you go, my furry friends! Remember to use positive reinforcement; this is a powerful tool in training and will encourage your human to repeat desired behaviors in the future. You can reward your human in many ways, including something as simple as a kiss on the hand or lying at their feet.

Is it tough to get them engaged and attentive during classes? Well, here are some ways to create more interactive and exciting lessons that will engage your students deeply. \n\n1. Arrange Group Discussions\nOrganize the students into small groups, and give them a topic to discuss. Encourage them to share their perspectives, ask open-ended questions, and facilitate the discussion during class. After the discussion, you can ask a few students from each group to share their key takeaways from the discussion with the entire class.\n\n2. Brainstorming\nYou can encourage brainstorming by giving students a problem they need to solve or a question they need to answer. Then ask them to generate as many ideas as they can. Give them enough time to explore various possibilities without criticizing any of the ideas. Afterward, discuss each idea with the entire class and assess their effectiveness. \n\n3. Regularly Test Students\nYou should make sure that you frequently test your students. Try pop quizzes or regular assignments. Give them feedback on their results and offer remedial tips for areas with low scores. \n\n4. See Smartphones and Tech as Tools\nWe get it; smartphones can sometimes feel like the bane of a teacher's existence. But instead of trying to fight against them, why not incorporate them into your lessons? There are tons of awesome educational apps out there that can turn your students' phones into valuable learning tools. Having them use their phones in class may make them less likely to sneakily check social media while they're supposed to be listening to you.\n\n5. Start with a Warm-Up\nJust like athletes need to warm up their muscles before diving into a game or competition, students benefit from a warm-up activity to get their brains engaged and ready for learning. A quick review of a key concept, a thought-provoking question, or even a silly icebreaker game can get your lesson started on the right foot.\n\n6. Use Self-Paced Work\nNot all students learn or work at the same pace, so allowing them to move through the material at their speed can be a huge benefit. Personalized assignments or online modules give your students the power to work independently.", "role": "assistant" } ]

[ { "content": "summarize this for a 3 year old:\n\nThe pacemaker current (If, or IKf, also called funny current) is an electric current in the heart that flows through the HCN channel or pacemaker channel. Such channels are important parts of the electrical conduction system of the heart and form a component of the natural pacemaker.\n\nFirst described in the late 1970s in Purkinje fibers and sinoatrial myocytes, the cardiac pacemaker \"funny\" (If) current has been extensively characterized and its role in cardiac pacemaking has been investigated.[1][2][3] Among the unusual features which justified the name \"funny\" are mixed Na+ and K+ permeability, activation on hyperpolarization, and very slow kinetics.[1]\nFunction\n\nThe funny current is highly expressed in spontaneously active cardiac regions, such as the sinoatrial node (SAN, the natural pacemaker region), the atrioventricular node (AVN) and the Purkinje fibres of conduction tissue. The funny current is a mixed sodium–potassium current that activates upon hyperpolarization at voltages in the diastolic range (normally from −60/−70 mV to −40 mV). When, at the end of a sinoatrial action potential, the membrane repolarizes below the If threshold (about −40/−50 mV), the funny current is activated and supplies inward current, which is responsible for starting the diastolic depolarization phase (DD); by this mechanism, the funny current controls the rate of spontaneous activity of sinoatrial myocytes, and thus the cardiac rate. Another unusual feature of If is its dual activation by voltage and by cyclic nucleotides. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) molecules bind directly to f-channels and increase their open probability.[4] cAMP dependence is a particularly relevant physiological property, since it underlies the If-dependent autonomic regulation of heart rate. Sympathetic stimulation raises the level of cAMP-molecules which bind to f-channels and shift the If activation range to more positive voltages; this mechanism leads to an increase of the current at diastolic voltages and therefore to an increase of the steepness of DD and heart rate acceleration. Parasympathetic stimulation (which acts to increase probability of potassium channels opening but decreases the probability of calcium channel opening) decreases the heart rate by the opposite action, that is by shifting the If activation curve towards more negative voltages. When vagally-released acetylcholine (ACh) binds to muscarinic M2 receptors, which promotes dissociation of βγ subunit complexes, leading to direct opening of the G-protein–gated inwardly rectifying K+ channel (Girk/Kir) IKACh.[5] ", "role": "user" }, { "content": "There's something called a \"funny current\" in your heart that helps it beat.

[ { "content": "Could you please rephrase the given description into a fairy-tale style narrative about the life and journey of meteoroids in the solar system?\n\nMeteoroids are lumps of rock or iron that orbit the sun, just as planets, asteroids, and comets do. Meteoroids, especially the tiny particles called micrometeoroids, are extremely common throughout the solar system. They orbit the sun among the rocky inner planets, as well as the gas giants that make up the outer planets. Meteoroids are even found on the edge of the solar system, in regions called the Kuiper belt and the Oort cloud.\n\nDifferent meteoroids travel around the sun at different speeds and in different orbits. The fastest meteoroids travel through the solar system at a speed of around 42 kilometers (26 miles) per second.\n\nMany meteoroids are formed from the collision of asteroids, which orbit the sun between the paths of Mars and Jupiter in a region called the asteroid belt. As asteroids smash into each other, they produce crumbly debris—meteoroids. The force of the asteroid collision can throw the meteoroid debris—and sometimes the asteroids themselves—out of their regular orbit. This can put the meteoroids on a collision course with a planet or moon.\n\nOther meteoroids are the debris that comets shed as they travel through space. As a comet approaches the sun, the “dirty snowball” of the comet’s nucleus sheds gas and dust. The dusty tail may contain hundreds or even thousands of meteoroids and micrometeoroids. Meteoroids shed by a comet usually orbit together in a formation called a meteoroid stream.\n\nA very small percentage of meteoroids are rocky pieces that break off from the Moon and Mars after celestial bodies—often asteroids or other meteoroids—impact their surfaces. Meteoroid impacts are probably the largest contributor to “space weathering.” Space weathering describes the processes that act upon a celestial body that doesn’t have an airy atmosphere, such as asteroids, many moons, or the planets Mars and Mercury. Meteoroids crash into these bodies, creating craters and throwing space dust (more meteoroids) back into the solar system.\n\nMost meteoroids are made of silicon and oxygen (minerals called silicates) and heavier metals like nickel and iron. Iron and nickel-iron meteoroids are massive and dense, while stony meteoroids are lighter and more fragile.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Once upon a time, in the vast kingdom of the Sun, there were countless pebbles of rock and iron, known as meteoroids, swirling and whirling around their radiant ruler. They were found everywhere: mingling with the rocky realms of inner planets, frolicking among the gas giants of outer domains, and even wandering at the kingdom's farthest boundaries, the enigmatic realms known as the Kuiper belt and the Oort cloud.\n\nThese brave adventurers hurtled around the Sun at varying speeds, with the swiftest among them zipping through space at a breathtaking 42 kilometers per second.\n\nTheir birth was a story of cataclysm and creation. Many were born when the asteroids, the boulder-sized subjects of the Sun dwelling between Mars and Jupiter, collided with great force. These collisions, in their chaos and beauty, birthed showers of crumbly debris, our valiant meteoroids. The impact was so strong, it could send the newborns and sometimes even their asteroid parents spinning off their usual path, setting them on a daring voyage towards a planet or moon.\n\nMeanwhile, other meteoroids were the lost children of the comets. As a comet raced towards the Sun, it would shed layers of gas and dust, leaving behind a trail of tiny meteoroids. These siblings of circumstance would stick together, forming a close-knit assembly known as a meteoroid stream.\n\nAnd then there were the few, the proud, the fragments of the Moon and Mars. These splinters were torn away from their parental bodies when an asteroid or another meteoroid crashed into them. This perpetual dance of impact and creation, this 'space weathering', was the order of the cosmos. Meteoroids would collide with these bodies, crafting craters and flinging even more cosmic dust back into the solar kingdom. Most meteoroids, the heroes of our tale, were crafted from silicon and oxygen, with a sprinkling of heavier metals like nickel and iron.

Please give me 5 suggestions.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Decorating a small room can seem daunting, but with the right accessories and approach, you can make your small room feel cozy and comfortable. Here are 5 ways you can accomplish this:\n\n1. Use mirrors - Mirrors give a perception of depth to a room, making it appear larger than it truly is. Consider putting up a mirror or two in strategic places in your room that fit in with your overall design.\n2. Plants - Houseplants (either real or fake) can add a certain level of charm and a tropical feel to your room. Put a houseplant in an open corner of the room or hang it from the ceiling. Bonus points for fake plants, as upkeep is minimal since they do not need to be watered.\n3. Accessories with dual purposes - To keep clutter to a minimum, use furniture that can have dual purposes. For instance, having a nightstand with drawers near your bed can act as a table for you to put a lamp on as well as a storage area for small things like books or other knickknacks that would otherwise go on the top of the nightstand and clutter that area. Or, use rolling storage bins that can fit under your bed to store excess clothing and other items to free up much-needed space in your closet.\n4. Make use of lighting - Use lighting to set the mood in your room. Soft lighting can add a sense of intimacy, while bright lights can cause you to feel alert and active. You could use color-changing lights that can do both types of lighting, or you can have dedicated lighting (such as LED light strips) as accents in certain areas of your room.\n5. Put up pictures - Consider decorating your empty walls with still-life pictures or paintings. Having an empty wall can make a room feel less cozy, but putting up some pictures will give you something to look at.", "role": "assistant" } ]

However, they can be very vocal and struggle with separation anxiety, so it's important to get a handle on training early.\n2. Border Collie: The Border Collie is one of the most famous working dogs in the world and is very active. However, as they are used to having a job, you will need to provide lots of enrichment and stimulation, or your dog might become bored.\n3. Poodle: The Poodle is a hunting dog favored by many due to its dense coat that doesn't shed much, making it ideal for people with allergies. However, as Poodles are highly intelligent, they need to have a lot to do, or they can also become destructive and vocal.\n4. Husky: The Husky is a breed with tons of energy which means that if you need a buddy to join you on long weeks, they can be ideal. However, they're very vocal and escape artists. If you don't have at least a six-foot privacy fence, you'll be unable to leave your dog unattended in the backyard, as it might run off—especially if it isn't getting enough exercise.\n5. Corgi: For something a little smaller, you can look at a Corgi. People often overlook this breed because of its short stubby legs, but as they were bred for herding, they're highly energetic and playful, which makes them great companions.

Print these animals in the order in which they are mentioned in the passage. Enclose the list in square brackets []. Do not mention any animal more than once.\n\nIn biology, taxonomic rank is the relative level of a group of organisms (a taxon) in an ancestral or hereditary hierarchy. A common system of biological classification (taxonomy) consists of species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain. While older approaches to taxonomic classification were phenomenological, forming groups on the basis of similarities in appearance, organic structure and behaviour, methods based on genetic analysis have opened the road to cladistics.\n\nA given rank subsumes under it less general categories, that is, more specific descriptions of life forms. Above it, each rank is classified within more general categories of organisms and groups of organisms related to each other through inheritance of traits or features from common ancestors. The rank of any species and the description of its genus is basic; which means that to identify a particular organism, it is usually not necessary to specify ranks other than these first two.[1]\n\nConsider a particular species, the red fox, Vulpes vulpes: the specific name or specific epithet vulpes (small v) identifies a particular species in the genus Vulpes (capital V) which comprises all the \"true\" foxes. Their close relatives are all in the family Canidae, which includes dogs, wolves, jackals, and all foxes; the next higher major rank, the order Carnivora, includes caniforms (bears, seals, weasels, skunks, raccoons and all those mentioned above), and feliforms (cats, civets, hyenas, mongooses). Carnivorans are one group of the hairy, warm-blooded, nursing members of the class Mammalia, which are classified among animals with backbones in the phylum Chordata, and with them among all animals in the kingdom Animalia. Finally, at the highest rank all of these are grouped together with all other organisms possessing cell nuclei in the domain Eukarya.\n\nThe International Code of Zoological Nomenclature defines rank as: \"The level, for nomenclatural purposes, of a taxon in a taxonomic hierarchy (e.g. all families are for nomenclatural purposes at the same rank, which lies between superfamily and subfamily).\"[2] ", "role": "user" }, { "content": "domain\nkingdom\nphylum\nclass\norder\nfamily\ngenus\nspecies\n\n[foxes, dogs, wolves, jackals, bears, seals, weasels, skunks, raccoons, cats, civets, hyenas, mongooses]", "role": "assistant" } ]

The truth is, for many people, it's not easy to lose weight for a myriad of reasons, including life-stage, body composition, physical activity, genetics and hormones, among other factors. Plus, weight is not the end all be all and is only one of several factors that impact our overall health.\n\nExtreme calorie restriction and excessive exercising is something our nutrition and fitness experts would never recommend for health reasons, but they also note that you'll likely gain all of your weight back faster than you lost it if you try those approaches.

According to their estimates, they found a total of 5,578 different species in the region, an estimated 88%–92% of which were described for the first time ever.\n\nThe region where all of the new species were discovered is called the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ), a 6 million sq. km. area roughly twice the size of India, lying between Hawaii, Kiribati, and Mexico in the central and eastern Pacific. \n\n“We share this planet with all this amazing biodiversity, and we have a responsibility to understand it and protect it,” Muriel Rabone, a deep-sea ecologist at the Natural History Museum London, told the website Eurekalert.\n\nIn the course of decades of exploration missions in the CCZ, over 100,000 creatures were recorded. The researchers found that only six of these had ever been seen in other regions, after combing through all the files. The most common species they found in the remote region were arthropods (invertebrates with segmented joints), worms, echinoderms (spiny invertebrates like sea urchins), and sponges.\n\n“There are some just remarkable species down there. Some of the sponges look like classic bath sponges, and some look like vases. They’re just beautiful,” said Rabone of the CCZ samples. “One of my favorites is the glass sponges. They have these little spines, and under the microscope, they look like tiny chandeliers or little sculptures. There are so many wonderful species in the CCZ, and with the possibility of mining looming, it’s doubly important that we know more about these really understudied habitats.”\n\nThe rise in global demand for metals like cobalt and nickel has created unprecedented interest in deep-sea habitats which possess mineral resources. Exploration of the CCZ for minerals began in 1960, and today 1.2 million sq. km. are divided up and assigned to 17 companies for future deep-sea mining.\n\nThe scientists expect the overall number of species in the region to continue to climb, as vast areas of the CCZ still haven't been explored.

Lap pools can be either inground or above ground, and they usually have a consistent depth throughout the pool.\n5. Swim Spa: A swim spa is a combination of a small pool and a spa. It features a powerful current that allows you to swim in place, providing the benefits of swimming and hydrotherapy. Swim spas are smaller than traditional pools, so they can fit more easily in your yard.\n6.

[ { "content": "Rewrite the following story passage from the point of view of a bird flying over the characters\n\nThe Mole knew well that it is quite against animal-etiquette to dwell on possible trouble ahead, or even to allude to it; so he dropped the subject.\n\n'And beyond the Wild Wood again?' he asked: 'Where it's all blue and dim, and one sees what may be hills or perhaps they mayn't, and something like the smoke of towns, or is it only cloud-drift?'\n\n'Beyond the Wild Wood comes the Wide World,' said the Rat. 'And that's something that doesn't matter, either to you or me. I've never been there, and I'm never going, nor you either, if you've got any sense at all. Don't ever refer to it again, please. Now then! Here's our backwater at last, where we're going to lunch.'\n\nLeaving the main stream, they now passed into what seemed at first sight like a little land-locked lake. Green turf sloped down to either edge, brown snaky tree-roots gleamed below the surface of the quiet water, while ahead of them the silvery shoulder and foamy tumble of a weir, arm-in-arm with a restless dripping mill-wheel, that held up in its turn a grey-gabled mill-house, filled the air with a soothing murmur of sound, dull and smothery, yet with little clear voices speaking up cheerfully out of it at intervals. It was so very beautiful that the Mole could only hold up both forepaws and gasp, 'O my! O my! O my!'\n\nThe Rat brought the boat alongside the bank, made her fast, helped the still awkward Mole safely ashore, and swung out the luncheon-basket. The Mole begged as a favour to be allowed to unpack it all by himself; and the Rat was very pleased to indulge him, and to sprawl at full length on the grass and rest, while his excited friend shook out the table-cloth and spread it, took out all the mysterious packets one by one and arranged their contents in due order, still gasping, 'O my! O my!' at each fresh revelation. When all was ready, the Rat said, 'Now, pitch in, old fellow!' and the Mole was indeed very glad to obey, for he had started his spring-cleaning at a very early hour that morning, as people WILL do, and had not paused for bite or sup; and he had been through a very great deal since that distant time which now seemed so many days ago.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "As the bird soared above, it observed the Mole's unease and his swift decision to abandon any mention of impending trouble, aware that it violated animal etiquette. The topic was dropped promptly.\n\nCuriosity piqued the bird's interest as the Mole inquired about what lay beyond the Wild Wood. The Rat responded, describing a realm of indistinct blues and dimness, where hazy shapes resembling hills or mere illusions blended with what might be smoke from distant towns or simply wisps of cloud.\n\nThe Rat dismissed it, asserting that the Wide World beyond the Wild Wood held no significance for them. It was a place neither had ventured into nor desired to if they possessed any semblance of reason. The Rat implored the Mole to never bring it up again. With that, they arrived at their secluded backwater, their chosen spot for lunch.\n\nLeaving the mainstream behind, they entered what initially appeared to be a small, enclosed lake. Verdant grass sloped down on either side, revealing glimpses of snakelike brown tree roots beneath the tranquil surface of the water. Up ahead, the silver cascade and frothy churn of a weir greeted them, accompanied by the incessant drip of a restless mill wheel. The mill wheel, in turn, supported a gray-gabled mill house that emanated a comforting, muffled hum, intermittently interrupted by cheerful, clear voices. The sight was so breathtaking that the Mole could only lift both forepaws in awe, gasping, \"O my! O my! O my!\"\n\nThe Rat skillfully guided the boat to the bank, securing it firmly. He assisted the still unsteady Mole in stepping ashore and retrieved the luncheon basket. As a favor, the Mole requested permission to unpack the contents himself. The Rat gladly obliged, sprawling on the grass, enjoying a moment of rest while his enthused companion laid out the tablecloth and arranged the mysterious packets one by one. With each new revelation, the Mole continued to gasp in amazement, exclaiming, \"O my! O my!\" At last, when everything was prepared, the Rat encouraged, \"Now, dig in, my dear friend!\" The Mole eagerly complied, grateful for the invitation, as he had been engrossed in spring cleaning since the early hours of the morning, forsaking both sustenance and rest. Since that distant time, which now felt like countless days ago, he had undergone a multitude of experiences.", "role": "assistant" } ]

First, he turned on the little television his Mom kept on the countertop. Then he opened up the cupboard to search for his Oreo cookies, the one thing he had been waiting for all day. Except they weren't there. Nearly frantic Jimmy started calling out for his mom before realizing she wasn't home.\n\nThat's when he saw it on the table. His mom had already set out a tray of cookies with a note telling him to enjoy himself and to be a good boy. An empty glass stood next to the plate piled high with cookies and Jimmy quickly filled it with milk from the fridge. This was the best part. Sitting down, his feet barely touching the floor, Jimmy dunked an Oreo into the milk. He let it soak up for a few seconds before consuming it in one all-too-big bite.\n\nEvery cookie was a different adventure and a different creation. Sometimes he would eat the cream first, and sometimes he wouldn't even dunk them at all. Then, staring at his last two cookies, a new idea came to him. Picking both cookies up, he put them directly into the milk and let them sink to the bottom. \n\nAfter a minute passed. Jimmy grabbed a spoon and plunged it into the milk. He tried to fish out his cookies only to find nothing but crumbles. Disappointed at first he poked around more and stirred up the dregs. The milk turned from a pristine white to a muddier brown as chocolate bits danced, swirled, and mixed in. Marveling at his new concoction, Jimmy took the spoon out and gave it a sip. Then another sip, and then he drank the whole thing in one go. This was better than any cookie he had eaten. An Oreo milkshake! What a discovery.

[ { "content": "Format a bulleted list with four professionals who can diagnose a learning disability, then a separate bulleted list of three types of learning disorders. Label each list. \n\nLearning disability, learning disorder, or learning difficulty (British English) is a condition in the brain that causes difficulties comprehending or processing information and can be caused by several different factors. Given the \"difficulty learning in a typical manner\", this does not exclude the ability to learn in a different manner. Therefore, some people can be more accurately described as having a \"learning difference\", thus avoiding any misconception of being disabled with a lack of ability to learn and possible negative stereotyping. In the United Kingdom, the term \"learning disability\" generally refers to an intellectual disability, while conditions such as dyslexia and dyspraxia are usually referred to as \"learning difficulties\".[6]\n\nWhile learning disability and learning disorder are often used interchangeably, they differ in many ways. Disorder refers to significant learning problems in an academic area. These problems, however, are not enough to warrant an official diagnosis. Learning disability, on the other hand, is an official clinical diagnosis, whereby the individual meets certain criteria, as determined by a professional (such as a psychologist, psychiatrist, speech language pathologist, or pediatrician). The difference is in degree, frequency, and intensity of reported symptoms and problems, and thus the two should not be confused. When the term \"learning disorder\" is used, it describes a group of disorders characterized by inadequate development of specific academic, language, and speech skills.[7] Types of learning disorders include reading (dyslexia), arithmetic (dyscalculia) and writing (dysgraphia).[7]", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Professionals who can diagnose a learning disorder\n- psychologist\n- psychiatrist\n- speech language pathologist \n- pediatrician\n\nTypes of learning disorders\n- dyslexia (reading)\n- dyscalculia (arithmetic)\n- dysgraphia (writing)", "role": "assistant" } ]

[ { "content": "Write a short blog post about a person who likes to run, and is explaining their approach to running.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "I like to run. I never used to like it when I was younger, but as I get older I find myself enjoying running immensely. Running becomes a great form of moving meditation that also serves as a fantastic workout. But I wasn't born with the ability to run, I had to learn how to run. Yes, running is pretty simple, but efficiency in running is something that requires a lot of practice. Here's what I have noticed in the years since I started running that has helped me to improve:\n\n1. Start low, and work your way up - I started running based on time, rather than distance. My beginner's routine was a mix of running and walking, made up of 60- to 90-second runs interspersed with 60-second rest periods over 7 or 8 cycles. As I ran longer minutes, I was gaining more distance, and after some time I was able to switch to distance running where I would run based on how far I wanted to go.\n2. Low and slow is the key - running slowly and ensuring I got my running form correct were keys to my improvements in running. Low-impact running, not going all-out trying to break records or push my body unnecessarily, helped me to build on my weekly mileage.\n3. Relax and breathe - relaxing your body during a run is important to conserving energy over long distances. Also, learning to breathe while running (such as cadenced breathing or breathing with a certain tempo) helps to ensure you're getting enough air into your lungs while still being able to work your body.\n4. Finding the zone - when I run, I am sometimes able to reach a specific \"zone,\" where I am running and not expending much energy, yet I am still getting a workout. It feels like being on autopilot, where my body can act accordingly while my mind can meditate on things like my surroundings, the music I'm listening to, or whatever I want to think about that day. This zone takes time to reach because it requires training the body to reach a certain level of fitness before you can be comfortable with running multiple miles and not being tired. But once you've reached it, it will feel like you're gliding effortlessly.", "role": "assistant" } ]
