Can't complain" Drew Peterson arrested in the death of his third wife, Kathleen Savio. Renewed interest in Savio's death came after Peterson's fourth wife disappeared. Peterson, through his attorney, denies any wrongdoing in either case.
Write an article based on these highlights. | Title: Drew Peterson Arrested for the Death of His Third Wife
Once upon a time, there was a man named Drew Peterson. Drew was married four times. His first two wives left him, but the story didn't end there, and things got tricky with his third and fourth wives. His third wife, Kathleen Savio, was found dead in 2004. At first, people thought it was an accident, but later, some people started to think that maybe Drew had something to do with her death.
Then, in 2007, Drew's fourth wife, Stacy, disappeared, and no one knew where she was. Because of this, people started looking more closely at what happened to Kathleen, Drew's third wife. They thought that maybe Drew had hurt her too.
So, the police decided to put Drew in handcuffs and chains and take him to a place called jail. When people asked Drew about the handcuffs and chains, he said, "I got the bling. Can't complain." That means he was trying to say he didn't care about the handcuffs and chains because they were like fancy jewelry.
Drew said, through his special helper called an attorney, that he didn't do anything wrong to either his third or fourth wife. An attorney is someone who helps people with problems related to the law.
In the end, the police will have to work hard to find out the truth about what happened to both of these missing wives. They will have to listen to stories, look for clues, and use their detective skills to put the puzzle pieces together. |

Q: Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: When I first approached this book it looked extremely dry and boring, as many people have already commented. My intention was to be able to learn Arabic with a view to understanding the Quran and also for daily use. In this respect the book presents the language very succinctly and logically and endows you with a firm foundation in understanding its structure which allows you to go away and generalise very easily; very useful for further learning. This, I think, more than makes up for a more ad hoc approach. After all, MSA is descended from the Quran whose language is extremely mathematically elegant. It only seems right that we try to understand the language at this depth if we are to truly appreciate it. Answer:
A: | Based on this review, it seems that the user would recommend this book. They mention that it presents the language succinctly and logically, providing a firm foundation for understanding its structure. They also mention that it is useful for further learning. |

Think like you are answering to a five year old. | Von Neumann liked to eat and drink; his wife, Klara, said that he could count everything except calories. He enjoyed Yiddish and "off-color" humor (especially limericks). He was a non-smoker. At Princeton he received complaints for regularly playing extremely loud German march music on his gramophone, which distracted those in neighbouring offices, including Albert Einstein, from their work. Von Neumann did some of his best work blazingly fast in noisy, chaotic environments, and once admonished his wife for preparing a quiet study for him to work in. He never used it, preferring the couple's living room with its television playing loudly.
Try to answer this question if possible (otherwise reply "unanswerable"): What complaints did Von Neumann's neighbor's have? | Von Neumann's neighbors, including Albert Einstein, complained about the extremely loud German march music that he played on his gramophone, which distracted them from their work. |

The Broncos jumped out to a 13-0 lead, with quarterback Peyton Manning throwing a 6-yard touchdown pass to tight end Joel Dreessen, followed by field goals of 43 and 34 from placekicker Matt Prater, with the latter field goal occurring early in the second quarter. The Raiders got on the scoreboard late in the first half, with quarterback Carson Palmer throwing a 6-yard touchdown pass to running back Darren McFadden. The Broncos added to their lead in the third quarter, with a 20-yard field goal by Prater, a 1-yard touchdown run by running back Knowshon Moreno and a 33-yard field goal by Prater. A 56-yard touchdown pass from Palmer to wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey (with a failed two-point conversion attempt) was the only scoring play of the fourth quarter, and the Broncos ran out the final 5:36 of the game. With the win, the Broncos earned their first season sweep of the Raiders since 2006, and also swept their division rivals on the road for the third time in four seasons.
Answer this question based on the article: What are the two shortest touchdown passes made? | According to the article, there was only one touchdown pass mentioned that was made in the first half of the game. It was a 6-yard touchdown pass from Carson Palmer to Darren McFadden, which was the only touchdown scored by the Raiders in the game. The article also mentioned a 6-yard touchdown pass from Peyton Manning to Joel Dreessen, but it did not specify if it was the shortest touchdown pass made in the game. Therefore, it is unclear what the two shortest touchdown passes made were based on the information provided in the article. |

Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Earthquakes also occur at divergent plate boundaries. At mid-ocean ridges, these earthquakes tend to be small and shallow focus because the plates are thin, young, and hot. Earthquakes in the oceans are usually far from land, so they have little effect on peoples’ lives. On land, where continents are rifting apart, earthquakes are larger and stronger. Choices: - plates are thin , young , and cold - plates are thick , young , and cold - plates are thick , old , and hot - plates are thin , young , and hot A:
Answer: | The correct option is "plates are thin, young, and hot". This is because at mid-ocean ridges, the plates are moving away from each other, and the magma from the mantle rises up to fill the gap. This creates new crust that is thin, young, and hot. As a result, the earthquakes that occur at these boundaries tend to be small and shallow focus. In contrast, on land where continents are rifting apart, the plates are thicker and older, and the earthquakes tend to be larger and stronger. |

niv.126344 | User will you give you a task with some instruction. Your job is follow the instructions as faithfully as you can. While answering think step-by-step and justify your answer. | In this task you will be given an arithmetic operation in Italian and you have to find its answer. The operations 'addition' and 'subtraction' have been replaced with their italian translations i.e you need to perform addition when you see 'aggiunta' and subtraction in case of 'sottrazione'.
Q: 8680 sottrazione 9504 sottrazione 9115 aggiunta 4098
A: | The given arithmetic operation is: 8680 - 9504 - 9115 + 4098
To solve this, we need to perform the subtraction operation first, as per the BODMAS rule. So, 8680 - 9504 = -824 and then we need to subtract 9115 from it, so -824 - 9115 = -9939. Finally, we need to perform the addition operation of 4098, so -9939 + 4098 = -5841.
Therefore, the answer to the given arithmetic operation is -5841. |

The band was formed in 1992 by percussionist Shawn Crahan, drummer Joey Jordison and bassist Paul Gray. After several lineup changes in its early years, the band settled on nine members for more than a decade: Corey Taylor, Mick Thomson, Jim Root, Paul Gray, Craig Jones, Sid Wilson, Shawn Crahan, Chris Fehn and Joey Jordison. Gray died on May 24, 2010, and was replaced during 2011-2014 by guitarist Donnie Steele.
Preparation for Slipknot's fourth album began towards the end of 2007; work began at Sound Farm Studio in Jamaica, Iowa, with producer Dave Fortman in February 2008. The album was finished in June, and the band the All Hope Is Gone World Tour on July 9, 2008. Slipknot's fourth album, All Hope Is Gone, was released on August 20, 2008, debuting at number one on the Billboard albums chart. The album produced five singles; "All Hope Is Gone", "Psychosocial", "Dead Memories", "Sulfur" and "Snuff". 2009 marked the 10th anniversary of Slipknot's debut album; to commemorate the event, the band released a special edition version of Slipknot on September 9, 2009. The band toured in support of the album throughout 2008 and continued until October 31, 2009, resulting in Slipknot's third hiatus. During the hiatus, several band members focused on respective side projects; Taylor founded Junk Beer Kidnap Band and returned to Stone Sour with guitarist Root; Crahan continued working with his band Dirty Little Rabbits; and drummer Jordison returned with his band Murderdolls and became the new permanent drummer of Rob Zombie. Percussionist Fehn is now a full-time bassist with metalcore band Will Haven and Sid Wilson founded the eponymous band Sid. In 2010, Gray was planning to tour with the supergroup, Hail!, but on May 24, 2010, he was found dead in an Urbandale, Iowa hotel room. Circumstances surrounding his death at the time were not immediately known; an autopsy suspected his death was not intentional but did not reveal the cause. The day after his death, the remaining eight members of the band held a live, unmasked, press conference alongside Gray's widow and brother. On June 21, the cause of death was confirmed as an accidental overdose of morphine and synthetic morphine substitute fentanyl. The band was hesitant to comment on the future of Slipknot. The members made conflicting statements in interviews; drummer Jordison told The Pulse of Radio "there is another Slipknot record already kinda in the making". Vocalist Taylor told FMQB Productions' he was "very conflicted about whether or not [he wants] to do anything with Slipknot". The band released their fourth video album (sic)nesses on September 28, 2010; it debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Music Video Charts. The DVD features Slipknot's entire live performance at the 2009 Download Festival and a 45-minute film documenting their tour in support of All Hope Is Gone, and served as a tribute to Paul Gray.

If not, let me know by writing "Not answerable". Plot title: Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octopus Movie plot: Off the coast of Alaska, oceanographer Emma MacNeil (Deborah Gibson) is studying the migration patterns of whales aboard an experimental submarine she took without permission from her employer. Meanwhile, a military helicopter drops experimental sonar transmitters into the water, causing a pod of whales to go out of control and start ramming a nearby glacier. In the chaos, the helicopter crashes into the glacier, and the combined damage breaks the glacier open, thawing two hibernating, prehistoric creatures. MacNeil narrowly avoids destruction as, unknown to her, a giant shark and octopus are freed. Some time later, a drilling platform off the coast of Japan is attacked by the octopus, which has tentacles large enough to wrap around the entire structure. After returning to Point Dume, California, MacNeil investigates the corpse of a beached whale covered with many bloody wounds. Her employer Dick Richie (Mark Hengst) believes them to be from a tanker propeller, but MacNeil insists they appear to be from a creature. Later, she extracts what appears to be a sharkâs tooth from one of the wounds. Elsewhere, the huge shark leaps tens of thousands of feet into the air from the ocean and attacks a commercial aircraft, forcing it to crash into the water. A review board convenes and fires MacNeil from the oceanographic institute for stealing the submarine. She brings the shark tooth to her old professor, former U.S. Navy pilot Lamar Sanders (Sean Lawlor), who believes it belonged to a Megalodon, an enormous species of shark believed to have become extinct 1.5 million years ago. The duo is visited by Dr. Seiji Shimada (Vic Chao), a Japanese scientist trying to determine what attacked the drilling platform. The three review a videotape recorded during MacNeilâs submarine voyage, finding images of both the megalodon and a gigantic octopus. MacNeil reflects on the polar ice caps melting due to man-made global warming, and wonders if the creatures are mankindâs âcomeuppanceâ. Meanwhile, a U.S. "naval destroyer"...

Sri Lanka felt the full force of Alex Hales bat again but it was not quite enough for England to gain victory over the World Twenty20 champions at the Kia Oval because of the enduring unorthodox brilliance of Lasith Malinga. It was an unbeaten 116 from Hales that enabled England to become the only team to defeat Sri Lanka in that world tournament in Bangladesh in March. He appeared poised to do the same in the first big match of the Peter Moores era. Hales smashed 66 off 41 balls to lift England within reach of their formidable target of 184. But Malinga, still the best ‘death bowler’ in the world, deceived him with a perfect slower ball to earn Sri Lanka the spoils.
The fact they will attempt to do so without Hales, whose technique is still considered too loose for the 50-over game, might be something | like a disadvantage for England. However, it is important to note that Hales' absence does not necessarily mean that England will be unable to perform well in the 50-over game.
To complete the passage, I will continue by discussing the potential impact of Hales' absence on England's batting lineup.
Firstly, Hales' unbeaten 116 in the World Twenty20 tournament showcased his ability to score big runs and play match-winning innings. His aggressive batting style and ability to hit boundaries at will made him a valuable asset for England. Without Hales, England might lack a player who can consistently provide explosive starts at the top of the order.
However, it is worth considering that Hales' technique has been criticized for being too loose for the 50-over game. This suggests that his absence might actually provide an opportunity for another player with a more solid technique to step up and contribute to the team's success.
Additionally, England has a talented pool of batsmen to choose from, including players like Joe Root, Eoin Morgan, and Jos Buttler, who have proven themselves in the limited-overs format. These players have the ability to anchor the innings and build partnerships, which can be crucial in setting up a competitive total.
Furthermore, Hales' absence might also allow England to experiment with their batting order and try out different combinations. This could potentially lead to the discovery of new talents and provide the team with more flexibility in their approach.
In conclusion, while Hales' absence may be seen as a disadvantage for England in the 50-over game, it also presents an opportunity for other players to step up and contribute to the team's success. With a talented batting lineup and the potential for experimentation, England has the ability to overcome this challenge and perform well in the absence of Hales. |
flan.1005635 | You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. | If Enclosed by the mountains of the Galilee and the Golan, this azure freshwater lake is surrounded by orchards, banana plantations, kibbutzim, and Old and New Testament sites., can we conclude that "The lake between the Galilee and Golan mountains is not saltwater."? | Based on the given information, we can indeed conclude that the lake between the Galilee and Golan mountains is not saltwater. The description states that the lake is enclosed by these mountains and is surrounded by various features such as orchards, banana plantations, kibbutzim, and Old and New Testament sites. This suggests that the lake is a freshwater body rather than a saltwater one.
Firstly, the fact that the lake is enclosed by mountains implies that it is not connected to the sea or any other saltwater source. Mountains act as natural barriers, preventing the inflow of saltwater into the lake. This is significant because saltwater bodies are typically connected to the ocean or sea, allowing for the influx of saltwater and resulting in a high salinity level.
Additionally, the mention of orchards and banana plantations further supports the conclusion that the lake is not saltwater. These types of agricultural activities require freshwater for irrigation purposes. It is unlikely that farmers would be able to sustain orchards and banana plantations if the lake's water was saline.
Furthermore, the presence of kibbutzim, which are communal settlements in Israel, suggests that the lake provides a reliable source of freshwater for the local communities. Kibbutzim are typically established in areas with access to freshwater resources, as they rely on agriculture and other activities that require water.
Lastly, the reference to Old and New Testament sites indicates the historical and cultural significance of the lake. Many biblical events and stories are associated with freshwater bodies, such as the Sea of Galilee, which is believed to be the location of several miracles performed by Jesus. These stories further reinforce the idea that the lake is not saltwater.
In conclusion, based on the description provided, we can confidently conclude that the lake between the Galilee and Golan mountains is not saltwater. The presence of mountains, agricultural activities, communal settlements, and historical sites all point towards the lake being a freshwater body. |

Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that 80 percent of all human illness are connected with diet and 40 percent of cancer is connected with the diet. Therefore, that food is connected with illness is not a new discovery. In 1940's scientists realized that nitrates , which are often used to keep color1 of meat, and other additives caused cancer. However these additives remain in our food and it becomes more difficult to know which additives are helpful or harmful. Farmers sometimes give drugs to animals not because the animals are ill but because they want to sell the animals at higher prices. For example, farmers try hard to make animals grow big so that they can sell the big animals for more money. Although the Food and Drug Administration has tried again and again to control farmers to do so, farmers go on doing this. According to the passage, what has science done to mankind? A) Because of science there is no polluted food any more. B) Science makes food have less value. C) As a result of scientific invention, some things that may be harmful have been added to our food. D) Now the scientists can keep the color1 of meat but not that of vegetable.
A: | C) As a result of scientific invention, some things that may be harmful have been added to our food. |

If you can't, please say "No I can't". Question: Who hailed him? Movie title: Legend Movie plot: "Once, long ago", the ancient Lord of Darkness (Tim Curry) laments his isolation in the shadows before sensing the presence of two unicorns who safeguard the Power of Light; where upon Darkness instructs Blix (Alice Playten) and his fellow goblins Pox (Peter O'Farrell) and Blunder (Kiran Shah) to kill the unicorns and bring him their horns to free himself. Meanwhile, Princess Lily (Mia Sara), a mischievous and vibrant girl goes alone to the forest to meet her love interest Jack (Tom Cruise), an adventurous forest dweller who teaches her the languages of animals before showing her the unicorns as he promised he would someday do. Against Jack's pleas, Lily approaches the stallion to stroke him, making him distracted and the perfect target for a poisoned dart from Blix's blowpipe. Once hit, the unicorns bolt, and Lily makes light of Jack's fears and sets him a challenge by throwing her ring into a pond, declaring that she will marry whoever finds it. Jack, proving his love to Lily, dives into the pond to retrieve it. As the stallion dies from the poison and the goblins seize his horn, the forest and the pond freeze, setting the mortal realm into an apocalyptic winter. Lily runs off in terror before Jack can break the surface of the frozen pond. Taking refuge in a frozen cottage, Lily overhears the goblins talking about their slaying of the unicorn and testing the alicorn's magical powers. She follows them to a rendevouz with Darkness, who orders them to hunt down the mare. In a fit of overconfidence, Blunder challenges Darkness with the stallion's horn in hand, but is instead restrained and taken away. In the forest, Jack encounters the elf Honeythorn Gump (David Bennent, voiced by Alice Playten). Joined by Gump, the fairy Oona (Annabelle Lanyon), and the dwarves Brown Tom and Screwball (Cork Hubbert and Billy Barty), Jack searches for Lily before coming across the lifeless stallion and his mate. Knowing that the horn must be recovered and returned to the stallion, Jack is led by Gump and the others to a cache...
Answer: | The Lord of Darkness hailed Blix and his fellow goblins Pox and Blunder to kill the unicorns and bring him their horns to free himself. |

t0.305645 | Please answer the following question: Information: - Purusha (Sanskrit ", ") is a complex concept whose meaning evolved in Vedic and Upanishadic times. Depending on source and historical timeline, it means the cosmic man or Self, Consciousness, and Universal principle. - Harihara is the fused representation of Vishnu ( Hari ) and Shiva ( Hara ) from the Hindu tradition . Also known as Shankaranarayana ( `` Shankara '' is Shiva , and `` Narayana '' is Vishnu ) , Harihara is thus revered by both Vaishnavites and Shaivites as a form of the Supreme God . Harihara is also sometimes used as a philosophical term to denote the unity of Vishnu and Shiva as different aspects of the same Ultimate Reality called Brahman . This concept of equivalence of various gods as one principle and `` oneness of all existence '' is discussed as Harihara in the texts of Advaita Vedanta school of Hindu philosophy . Some of the earliest sculptures of Harihara , with one half of the image as Shiva and other half as Vishnu , are found in the surviving cave temples of India , such as in the cave 1 and cave 3 of the 6th - century Badami cave temples . - Nara-Narayana (nara-nryaa) is a Hindu deity pair. Nara-Narayana is the twin-brother avatar of the God Vishnu on earth, working for the preservation of dharma or righteousness. In the concept of Nara-Narayana, the human soul Nara is the eternal companion of the Divine Narayana. - Sanskrit (English pronunciation:; written in Devanagari script ; : or ', originally ', "refined speech") is the primary sacred language of Hinduism and "Mahyna" Buddhism, a philosophical language in Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism. It was also a literary language that was in use as a "lingua franca" in ancient and medieval South Asia. It is a standardised dialect of Old Indo-Aryan, originating as Vedic Sanskrit and tracing its linguistic ancestry back to Proto-Indo-Iranian and Proto-Indo-European. Today it is listed as one of the 22 scheduled languages of India and is an official language of the state of Uttarakhand. As one of the oldest Indo-European languages for which substantial written documentation exists, Sanskrit holds a prominent position in Indo-European studies. - Hari (Devanagari: ), the one who forgives all sins, is a primary god in Hinduism who is an aspect of Vishnu. The terms "Hari" and "Vishnu" are almost used interchangeably. He is described as having the dark complexion of water-filled clouds and having four arms. He is depicted as a pale-blue being, as are his incarnations Rama and Krishna. He holds a padma (lotus flower) in his lower left hand, the Kaumodaki gada (mace) in his lower right hand, the Panchajanya shankha (conch) in his upper left hand and the discus weapon considered to be the most powerful weapon according to Hindu Religion Sudarshana Chakra in his upper right hand and also have a bow named as sharanga and due to which he is sometimes named as sharangapani (hari) in Bhagvad Gita. Om precedes all else as in Om Namah Shivaya, Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya, Om Namo Narayanaya. But only Hari precedes Om in the form of Harih om or Harih om tat sat. - Hindu texts are manuscripts and historic literature related to any of the diverse traditions within Hinduism. A few texts are shared resources across these traditions and broadly considered as Hindu scriptures. These include the Vedas and the Upanishads. Scholars hesitate in defining the term "Hindu scripture" given the diverse nature of Hinduism, many include Bhagavad Gita and Agamas as Hindu scriptures, while Dominic Goodall includes Bhagavata Purana and Yajnavalkya Smriti to the list of Hindu scriptures. - The word Puranas ("") literally means "ancient, old", and it is a vast genre of Indian literature about a wide range of topics, particularly myths, legends and other traditional lore. Composed primarily in Sanskrit, but also in regional languages, several of these texts are named after major Hindu deities such as Vishnu, Shiva and Devi. The Puranas genre of literature is found in both Hinduism and Jainism. - The Bhgavata Pura (Devanagari: ; also rmad Bhgavata Mah Pura, rmad Bhgavatam or Bhgavata) is one of Hinduism's eighteen great Puranas ("Mahapuranas", great histories). Composed in Sanskrit and available in almost all Indian languages, it promotes "bhakti" (devotion) to Krishna integrating themes from the Advaita (monism) philosophy of Adi Shankara. - The Vedas (Sanskrit: "", "knowledge") are a large body of knowledge texts originating in the ancient Indian subcontinent. Composed in Vedic Sanskrit, the texts constitute the oldest layer of Sanskrit literature and the oldest scriptures of Hinduism. Hindus consider the Vedas to be "apaurueya", which means "not of a man, superhuman" and "impersonal, authorless". - Madhva Acharya (AD 12381317), also known as Purna Prajña and Ananda Teertha, was a Hindu philosopher and the chief proponent of the Dvaita (dualism) school of Vedanta. Madhva called his philosophy as "Tattvavada" meaning "the realist viewpoint". - Shiva ( Tamil Sanskrit: , lit. "the auspicious one") is one of the principal deities of Hinduism. He is the supreme God within Shaivism, one of the three most influential denominations in contemporary Hinduism. - An avatar (Sanskrit: , IAST: "") is a concept in Hinduism and it means "descent", and refers to the appearance or incarnation of a deity on earth. The term also generally refers to "alight, to make one's appearance" and sometimes used to refer to any revered guru or human being. - Brahma is the creator god in the Trimurti of Hinduism. He has four faces. Brahma is also known as "Svayambhu" (self-born), "Vga" (Lord of Speech), and the creator of the four Vedas, one from each of his mouths. Brahma is identified with the Vedic god Prajapati, as well as linked to Kama and Hiranyagarbha (the cosmic egg), he is more prominently mentioned in the post-Vedic Hindu epics and the mythologies in the Puranas. In the epics, he is conflated with Purusha. Brahma, along with Vishnu and Shiva, is part of a Hindu Trinity; however, ancient Hindu texts mention other trinities of gods or goddesses which do not include Brahma. - The Bhagavad Gita ("" in IAST, ; lit. "Song of the Lord"), often referred to as simply the Gita, is a 700-verse Hindu scripture in Sanskrit that is part of the Hindu epic "Mahabharata" (chapters 25 - 42 of the 6th book of Mahabharata). - The "Trimrti" (Sanskrit: "", "three forms") is the trinity of supreme divinity in Hinduism in which the cosmic functions of creation, maintenance, and destruction are personified as a triad of deities, typically Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver, and Shiva the destroyer/transformer, though individual denominations may vary from that particular line-up. When all three deities of the Trimurti incarnate into a single avatar, the avatar is known as Dattatreya. - Narayana (Sanskrit: "Nryaa") or Narayanan is a Vedic deity associated with the waters of creation and sometimes with the sun. He is one of several Vedic figures associated with Vishnu and Vishnu sometimes assumes the name Narayana in certain scriptures. According to Madhvacharya Narayana is one of the five vyuhas of Ka, which are cosmic emanations of god in contrast to his incarnate avatars. He is frequently mentioned as part of the pair of Nara-Narayana. According to the Bhagavata Purana he is the supreme god (including his different avatars) in Hinduism, venerated as the Supreme Being in Vaishnavism. He is also known as Vishnu and Hari, is venerated as Purushottama or Supreme Purusha in Hindu sacred texts such as the Bhagavad Gita, the Vedas and the Puranas. - Vishnu (IAST: "") is one of the principal deities of Hinduism, and the Supreme Being in its Vaishnavism tradition. Along with Brahma and Shiva, Vishnu forms a Hindu trinity (Trimurti); however, ancient Hindu texts do mention other trinities of gods or goddesses. - Supreme Being is a term for God used by theologians and philosophers of many religious faiths, including Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism, and deism. - Hinduism is a religion, or a way of life, found most notably in India and Nepal. Hinduism has been called the oldest religion in the world, and some practitioners and scholars refer to it as "", "the eternal law," or the "eternal way," beyond human origins. Scholars regard Hinduism as a fusion or synthesis of various Indian cultures and traditions, with diverse roots and no founder. This "Hindu synthesis" started to develop between 500 BCE and 300 CE following the Vedic period (1500 BCE to 500 BCE). - Hindu refers to any person who regards themselves as culturally, ethnically, or religiously adhering to aspects of Hinduism. It has historically been used as a geographical, cultural, rather than a religious identifier for people indigenous to South Asia. - Shaivism or aivism ("aiva Patha", "Shiva's Path"), also known as Shivaism and Saivam, is one of the major branches of Sanathan Dharma (Hinduism), revering Shiva as the Supreme Being. Shiva is sometimes depicted as the fierce god Bhairava. Followers of Shaivam are called "Shaivas", "Saivas", "Shaivites", or "Saivarkal". They believe that Shiva is All and in all, the creator, preserver, destroyer, revealer and concealer of all that is. Shaivism, like some of the other forms of Hinduism, spread to other parts of Southeast Asia, including Java, Bali, and parts of the Southeast Asian continent, including Cambodia. What entity does 'harihara' has the relation 'instance of' with?
Answer: | Vishnu and Shiva. |

t0.1508492 | You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. | Please answer the following question: Found the following article online, use it to answer the question: What is the full name of the person who decides to desert the war in Vietnam? The film, set over the course of four consecutive New Year's Eves from 1964 to 1967, depicts scenes from each of these years, intertwined with one another as though events happen simultaneously. The audience is protected from confusion by the use of a distinct cinematic style for each section. For example, the 1966 sequences echo the movie of Woodstock using split screens and multiple angles of the same event simultaneously on screen, the 1965 sequences (set in Vietnam) shot hand-held on grainy super 16 mm film designed to resemble war reporters' footage. The film attempts to memorialize the 1960s with sequences that recreate the sense and style of those days with references to Haight-Ashbury, the campus peace movement, the beginnings of the modern woman's liberation movement and the accompanying social revolt. One character burns his draft card, showing a younger audience what so many Americans had done on the television news ten years before the movie's release. Other characters are shown frantically disposing of their marijuana before a traffic stop as a police officer pulls them over, and another scene shows the police brutality with billy clubs during an anti-Vietnam protest. The fates of the main characters listed at the end of American Graffiti are updated at the end of this sequel. John Milner is shown driving his trademark yellow deuce coupe toward another vehicle's headlights on New Year's Eve 1964. After disappearing over a small hill, neither his taillights nor the approaching car's headlights are seen again, hinting that this was the crash in which Milner was killed. The anniversary of John's death is mentioned in both the 1965 and 1966 sequences. Terry "The Toad" Fields fakes his own death in Vietnam. Disillusioned with the war, he decides to desert, saying he plans to go to Europe. Terry's superiors believe him to be dead in 1965, as do Debbie in 1966 and Steve and Laurie in 1967.

During the 1981 Trooping the Colour ceremony and only six weeks before the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer, six shots were fired at the Queen from close range as she rode down The Mall on her horse, Burmese. Police later discovered that the shots were blanks. The 17-year-old assailant, Marcus Sarjeant, was sentenced to five years in prison and released after three. The Queen's composure and skill in controlling her mount were widely praised. From April to September 1982, the Queen remained anxious but proud of her son, Prince Andrew, who was serving with British forces during the Falklands War. On 9 July, the Queen awoke in her bedroom at Buckingham Palace to find an intruder, Michael Fagan, in the room with her. Remaining calm and through two calls to the Palace police switchboard, she spoke to Fagan while he sat at the foot of her bed until assistance arrived seven minutes later. Though she hosted US President Ronald Reagan at Windsor Castle in 1982 and visited his Californian ranch in 1983, she was angered when his administration ordered the invasion of Grenada, one of her Caribbean realms, without informing her.

t0.227658 | Question: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What is the alias of the person who is ordered to attend the sniper course? In 1989, Anthony "Swoff" Swofford, whose father served in the Vietnam War, attends U.S. Marine Corps training before being stationed at Camp Pendleton. Claiming that he joined the military because he "got lost on the way to college", Swofford finds his time at Camp Pendleton difficult, and struggles to make friends. While Swofford feigns illness to avoid his responsibilities, a "lifer", Staff Sergeant Sykes, takes note of his potential and orders Swofford to attend his Scout Sniper course. After grueling training, the Scout Sniper course is left with eight candidates, among them Swofford, now a sniper, and Swofford's roommate Corporal Alan Troy who becomes his spotter. When Iraq invades Kuwait, Swofford's unit is deployed to the Arabian Peninsula as a part of Operation Desert Shield. Eager for combat, the Marines find themselves bored with remedial training, constant drills, and a routine monotony that feeds their boredom, and prompts them to talk about the unfaithful girlfriends and wives waiting for them at home. They even erect a bulletin board featuring photographs and brief notes telling what perfidies the women had committed. Swofford obtains unauthorized alcohol and organizes an impromptu Christmas party, arranging for Fergus to cover his watch so he can celebrate. Fergus accidentally sets fire to a tent while cooking some sausages and ignites a crate of flares, waking the whole camp and enraging Staff Sergeant Sykes, who demotes Swofford from lance corporal to private and puts him on "shit-burning" detail. The punishments, combined with the heat, the boredom, and Swofford's suspicions of his girlfriend's infidelity, give Swofford a mental breakdown, to the point where he threatens Fergus with a rifle, then orders Fergus to shoot him instead.
Answer: | The alias of the person who is ordered to attend the sniper course is "Swoff". |

A pub owner has riled gun enthusiasts by putting up a sign in his window banning firearms from the establishment and calling those who carry them 'losers'. The owner of the Backstreets Pub and Deli in Clemson, South Carolina, put up his potentially provocative handmade sign around St Patrick's Day. The full notice read: 'No concealed weapons allowed. 'If you are such a loser that you feel a need to carry a gun with you when you go out, I do not want your business. D****bag.' A South Carolina bar owner put this sign up in his bar - causing outrage among gun advocates. The sign was photographed by one upset drinker who uploaded it online - and it subsequently went viral. Previously, the bar and restaurant averaged three out of five stars on Yelp. It also had mainly positive reviews on its Facebook page. But after the sign was spotted by gun advocates online, that rating has nosedived. Now the bar has over 300 reviews - it previously only had three - by people who allegedly found the pub had 'bad service' and was 'overpriced'. One of the users even posted on the pub's Facebook page claiming she: 'Threw my guts up for three days straight after eating the wings.' Another user, Bill Mallett, said: 'Not very good food... very bad service.. the kind of place you see on those restaurant fix it shows. Would not recommend. Danny Graham added: 'Get one star because it's not letting me put zero. Didn't like the bar and didn't like the sign up dogging concealed carriers and calling us D****bags. Won't spend my money at some bigots c*** shack.' Backstreets Pub and Grill - where the sign was put up. It previously had three-star reviews on Yelp and Facebook - which have now nose- dived after gun enthusiasts took to the bar's page to slam the establishment. Michael Breaux Jnr wrote: 'Looks like you don't support the liberties provided by certain aspects of our great constitution. If you don't like it Canada is to the north and Mexico to the south so feel free.' Hitting back, the pub's owner wrote: 'Sorry, but I'm not sorry. If you feel the need to bring a gun into a college bar you are a douche bag. 'And if you're drinking than you are violating the law.' Perhaps fueling the fire, the man later wrote he himself is a gun owner who did not like 'irrational...gun nuts'. He then posted pictures of more permanent-looking signs - which were yet again blasted by users. Last month, South Carolina passed a law which allows licensed pistol owners to take concealed weapons into pubs and bars - as long as they don't drink while inside. Such places can enforce their own weapon bans - as long as they warn customers.

The last time the Broncos played on Thanksgiving Day was on November 24, 2005, when they faced off against the Dallas Cowboys at Texas Stadium. The game was a close one, with the Broncos ultimately losing to the Cowboys by a score of 24-21.
During the game, Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer threw for 162 yards and two touchdowns, while running back Mike Anderson rushed for 88 yards and a touchdown. Despite their efforts, the Broncos were unable to overcome the Cowboys' strong defense and ultimately fell short in the game.
Since then, the Broncos have not played on Thanksgiving Day, but they have continued to be a competitive team in the NFL. They have won three Super Bowl championships in their history, with their most recent win coming in Super Bowl 50 in 2016. The Broncos have also had a number of talented players over the years, including John Elway, Terrell Davis, and Von Miller, among others. |

Answer: | The most suitable option to answer the question of how to figure out who wins when playing games is to keep score. Keeping score is a common method used in many games to determine the winner. It involves assigning points or a numerical value to certain actions or achievements within the game. For example, in a game of basketball, points are awarded for making a basket, and the team with the most points at the end of the game wins. Similarly, in a game of chess, points are assigned to each piece, and the player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Keeping score is a simple and effective way to determine the winner of a game. It allows players to track their progress and see how they are doing compared to their opponents. It also adds an element of competition and motivation to the game, as players strive to earn more points and ultimately win.
While trying to win is certainly an important aspect of playing games, it is not always the most reliable way to determine the winner. Some games may have multiple ways to win or may not have a clear endpoint, making it difficult to determine a winner based solely on who is ahead at a given moment. Similarly, while games can certainly be fun, fun alone does not necessarily determine the winner.
Finally, while some games may require time to be kept, this is not necessarily the same as keeping score. Timekeeping is often used in games with a time limit, such as chess or Scrabble, but it does not necessarily determine the winner. Instead, it is simply a way to ensure that the game is played within a certain timeframe. |

Though she did not again win the Sulman, she was successful in having works hung in that competition on many occasions, including the 1946, 1947, 1948 and 1950 shows. Bellette continued to paint classical scenes, and around 1950 produced the work Chorus without Iphigenia. Purchased by the National Gallery of Australia in 1976, this oil painting shows five figures, "posed like statues in a tableau vivant, [and who] possess a kind of erotic energy". Anne Gray, the National Gallery's curator, interpreted the scene chosen by Bellette: Although nothing is happening in this image, we associate the figures with tragedy, with death and mourning – with the classical reference in the painting's title. Iphigenia, Agamemnon's daughter, gave her life for her country when the goddess Artemis asked for it in exchange for favourable winds so that the Greek ships could sail to Troy. Bellette's melancholic painting might be supposed to portray Iphigenia's friends mourning her death. In 1951, Bellette came second in the Commonwealth Jubilee Art Competition, behind the young Jeffrey Smart. The following year, she won a competitive exhibition sponsored by Metro Goldwyn Mayer, with Girl With Still Life.Although Haefliger never critiqued his wife's exhibitions, others occasionally stepped in to provide reviews in the Herald. Describing her 1950 exhibition at the Macquarie Galleries, one critic considered it "one of the most stimulating and refreshing that has been seen here for a long time" and that "She paints with a strong, sombre palette and her forms are sculptured with great decision. She uses paint sensuously and passionately, as paint, not as so many contemporary Australians do, as mere colour".Two years later, the same reviewer, attending another of the artist's solo Sydney shows, observed that Bellette: is one of the few Australian artists here who combines a firm technique with a sensitive and rich emotion. In some of the lighter landscapes in this exhibition, Miss Bellette seems to have been trying to solve some of the...

Date of visit: August 21, 2021
Review:
I had high expectations based on the reputation and glowing reviews of The Grand Nirvana, but sadly, my experience was nothing short of disastrous. Upon arrival, the chaos was evident, as the parking lot was packed, and finding a spot took longer than desired. The exterior of the building seemed run-down, with peeling paint and dirty windows - certainly not reflective of the so-called 'grand' experience I was anticipating.
Entering the building only worsened the situation, as we were met with an unpleasant odor that followed us throughout our visit. The lobby was cluttered with people waiting to be seated, creating an overwhelming atmosphere. Despite having a reservation, we still had to wait for over 30 minutes to be seated, with no apologies or compensation from the management.
Once we were finally seated, the noise level in the dining area was unbearably high. Trying to have a conversation with my partner was nearly impossible, and the tables were placed so close together that I felt uncomfortable and claustrophobic. The dim lighting only added to the dreary ambiance and made it difficult to read the menu.
Speaking of the menu, while it was presented with a diverse range of dishes, it was evident that the restaurant was trying to cater to every possible taste, sacrificing quality for variety. We decided upon a shrimp appetizer, a tomato basil soup, and their "famous" steak and lobster entree.
The appetizers were a major disappointment; the shrimp were overcooked, and the tomato basil soup was bland and watery. Already disheartened, we remained optimistic that the entree would make up for the initial letdown. Unfortunately, our hopes were dashed when the steak and lobster arrived.
The steak was cooked unevenly, with some parts tough and chewy, while others were nearly raw. The lobster was dry and rubbery - far from the succulent seafood dish I was dreaming of. It was also served with lukewarm vegetables and cold, flavorless mashed potatoes.
Our waiter, who seemed just as disorganized as the establishment itself, made repeated errors throughout the night: forgotten utensils, mixed-up orders, and slow service. We had to request for water refills on multiple occasions. To make matters worse, at one point during our meal, a large bug was spotted crawling on the table next to us, prompting visible disgust from our fellow diners.
Despite the unsatisfactory experience, the bill remained exorbitantly high, without any acknowledgment of the subpar food and service we received. It truly felt like a slap in the face, as we had anticipated a luxurious, fine-dining experience, but left feeling disappointed and deflated.
In conclusion, The Grand Nirvana failed to meet even the most basic expectations for an enjoyable dining experience. The combination of poor service, lackluster food, and an uncomfortable atmosphere left a lasting negative impression that I won't soon forget. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this establishment to others. There are far better options in town that offer genuine hospitality and quality cuisine, without the crushing disappointment that we experienced at this overrated venue. |
t0.256509 | Given the question: Build a movie plot around this: What does Aunt Sarah buy for Lady at the pet store? a muzzle
The answer is: | Title: A Muzzle for Love
Genre: Comedy, Drama
Plot:
Aunt Sarah is a kind-hearted and wealthy widow living in a quaint town where everyone knows each other. She spends most of her time doting on her beloved niece, Lady, who just adopted her first puppy. Lady names the adorable little dog "Muffin", and quickly grows attached to him. Muffin, however, turns out to be quite mischievous and enjoys barking at everyone around him.
In an act of love and support, Aunt Sarah decides to buy a gift for Lady to help her train Muffin. She heads to the local pet store and spends hours searching for the perfect item. Finally, Aunt Sarah decides to buy the most beautiful and delicate muzzle she can find, intended to help the pup learn self-restraint without hurting his dignity.
Lady is initially taken aback by the gift, worrying that Muffin's pride (and cuteness) will be taken away. But Aunt Sarah convinces her that it's for Muffin's own good and that it will help him become a well-behaved and responsible dog.
As Lady ventures out into the town with Muffin in his new muzzle, the townspeople begin to gossip about her decision, sparking debates on pet parenting. Some claim Lady is being cruel, while others defend her actions and Aunt Sarah's intentions. Amidst the controversy, Lady struggles with her own insecurities about her dog ownership skills and how others perceive her.
As the town continues to gossip and bicker, Muffin accidentally gets loose at the local park. Running through the town, Muffin causes havoc while wearing his muzzle, causing people to reconsider their stance on pet training. Meanwhile, Aunt Sarah rallies the town together to help Lady find Muffin before anything unfortunate happens.
Lady, aided by her newfound allies, eventually manages to locate Muffin hiding behind a bush in the park, with a group of wild animals quietly surrounding him. It turns out that despite wearing the muzzle, Muffin managed to save a baby rabbit from a predatory fox, earning him admiration and gratitude from the creatures.
The townspeople, upon witnessing this heroic moment, realize that they had judged Lady and Muffin too quickly based on appearances. The town comes together to celebrate Muffin's heroism, and Aunt Sarah's love for Lady, by hosting a grand "Un-Muzzle" party in the park.
In the end, Lady and Muffin learn an invaluable lesson about trust, love, and perseverance. Muffin keeps the muzzle as a souvenir, reminding them of the adventure they went through together and the bond it strengthened between them, Aunt Sarah, and their new friends. |

Text: | Cyprus authorities have arrested two Pakistani nationals on suspicion of having links to Islamist extremist groups. The suspects were taken into custody following a thorough investigation and surveillance of their activities.
Officials have been closely monitoring the two individuals, both of whom are reported to have resided in Cyprus for some time. The arrests come as part of the government's ongoing efforts to identify and prevent potential terrorist activities on the island nation.
Cyprus, being situated in the Eastern Mediterranean region, is concerned about the possibility of terrorist threats, especially due to its proximity to countries in the Middle East experiencing unrest and conflict. This has led the island's government to adopt a policy of vigilance and stringent measures against terrorism.
As a result of the arrests, investigations are now underway to determine the extent of the suspects' connections to extremist groups. Authorities are particularly interested in verifying whether the individuals were planning any terrorist activities within Cyprus, or were involved in providing support or resources to radical factions abroad.
In recent years, there have been a number of cases involving individuals with alleged ties to Islamist extremist groups in various European countries, prompting authorities to keep a watchful eye on their respective populations. Cyprus' counterterrorism measures are in line with global efforts to minimize the risks of such threats.
Despite the arrests, the Cyprus government remains cautious against potential acts of terror. They continue to urge the public to remain vigilant and to report any suspicious behavior to the appropriate authorities.

t0.1499815 | Answer the following question: Generate a question that has the following answer: sucker-punches him for the following movie plot: Reggie Dunlop (Paul Newman) is the aging player-coach of the Charlestown Chiefs hockey team in the fictional Federal League. A perennial loser for years, the team's manager Joe McGrath (Strother Martin) has resorted to extreme cost-cutting techniques and embarrassing promotional antics to keep local interest alive. Dunlop, while not particularly talented as either a player or coach, is a skilled con man, and regularly manipulates the team to his own advantage. During a hopeless season, the Chiefs pick up the Hanson Brothers, bespectacled violent goons with childlike mentalities, complete with toys in their luggage. Horrified at being given players who seem stupid, immature, and unreliable, Dunlop initially chooses not to play them. When it is announced that the local mill will be closing and 10,000 workers will be unemployed, Dunlop grows concerned about the team's future. He makes several attempts to learn the identity of the team's anonymous owner (a running gag throughout the film), but is deftly deflected by McGrath each time. When McGrath accompanies them on an away game, top scorer Ned Braden (Michael Ontkean) overhears him attempting to get a job with another team. After Braden relays this information to his teammates, Dunlop confronts McGrath, who confirms that the Chiefs will fold at the end of the season. Determined to save the team at all costs, Dunlop starts provoking fights at games to secure goals and the Chiefs start to win games. In a moment of desperation, he lets the Hansons play and discovers that their aggressive fighting style enthralls the fans. He begins retooling the team as a goon squad in the Hansons' image and attendance quickly increases. Capitalizing on this growing interest, he plants a false story with eccentric sports news writer Dickie Dunn (M. Emmet Walsh) that a Florida retirement community is interested in purchasing the team, in order to bolster the confidence of the players and to hopefully inspire an actual sale. Most of the players, such as Dave "Killer" Carlson (Jerry...

From September 1823 to 1826 Chopin attended the Warsaw Lyceum, where he received organ lessons from the Czech musician Wilhelm Würfel during his first year. In the autumn of 1826 he began a three-year course under the Silesian composer Józef Elsner at the Warsaw Conservatory, studying music theory, figured bass and composition.[n 3] Throughout this period he continued to compose and to give recitals in concerts and salons in Warsaw. He was engaged by the inventors of a mechanical organ, the "eolomelodicon", and on this instrument in May 1825 he performed his own improvisation and part of a concerto by Moscheles. The success of this concert led to an invitation to give a similar recital on the instrument before Tsar Alexander I, who was visiting Warsaw; the Tsar presented him with a diamond ring. At a subsequent eolomelodicon concert on 10 June 1825, Chopin performed his Rondo Op. 1. This was the first of his works to be commercially published and earned him his first mention in the foreign press, when the Leipzig Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung praised his "wealth of musical ideas".
What is the title of his first commercially successful work? | The title of Chopin's first commercially successful work is Rondo Op. 1. |

So I have been eagerly awaiting her debut cookbook, Ostro: The Pleasure that Comes From Slowing Down and Cooking with Simple Ingredients, and it is a beauty — it is full of food I want to make and eat. It’s also a joy to look at, as it is presented so beautifully with photographs of Julia (and often her darling little boy Haruki) at home and tables full with food that look Caravaggesque. I have already made her everyday banana loaf, several times, after years of searching for my ideal everyday cake, it is now my go-to banana loaf. I tested her ricciarelli (soft almond cookies from Siena) and pork braised in milk (a classic Italian dish that I have always loved) when she was writing the book and I have long-known her absolutely wonderful, incredibly moist lemon olive oil cake (which is also divine with blood oranges). I absolutely love her homemade approach to everything, including all the wonderful handmade pasta like trofie and orecchiette (look at those beautiful dishes below), but also things like classic tiramisu — homemade savoiardi, homemade mascarpone (yes and yes, I absolutely believe that for the freshest, most delicious mascarpone, it needs to be homemade especially if you live outside of Italy). Yes, these are all things you can also buy in a packet, but Julia’s point is, it is a pleasure to make these things by hand, and the ingredients are so simple — water, flour, cream, eggs, — you probably have them all in your house already.

- michigan Let's think step by step: | Based on the given information, we can eliminate some of the options. "Michigan" is a state and cannot be used to describe a place. "City" is also not a suitable option as it implies a densely populated urban area, which is not the case here.
The remaining options are "farming community," "rural area," and "farmer."
A "farming community" is a group of people who live in a particular area and are involved in agriculture. This option seems to fit the given information as John lives in a farmhouse and there are many other farmhouses close by.
A "rural area" is a region that is located outside of cities and towns. This option also seems to fit the given information as John lives in a farmhouse in an area where there are many other farmhouses close by.
"Farmer" is a person who owns or manages a farm. This option is not suitable to describe the place where John lives as it only refers to a person and not a place.

t0.906056 | You are an AI assistant. Provide a detailed answer so user don’t need to search outside to understand the answer. | Question: Information: - Amun (also "Amon, Amen"; Greek "Ámmn", "Hámmn") was a major Ancient Egyptian deity. He was attested since the Old Kingdom together with his wife Amaunet. With the 11th dynasty (21st century BC), he rose to the position of patron deity of Thebes by replacing Monthu. - The son of Shoshenq I and his chief consort, Karomat A, Osorkon I was the second king of Egypt's 22nd Dynasty and ruled around 922 BC 887 BC. He succeeded his father Shoshenq I who probably died within a year of his successful 923 BC campaign against the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. Osorkon I's reign is known for many temple building projects and was a long and prosperous period of Egypt's History. His highest known date is a "Year 33 Second Heb Sed" inscription found on the bandage of Nakhtefmut's Mummy which held a bracelet inscribed with Osorkon I's praenomen: "Sekhemkheperre". This date can only belong to Osorkon I since no other early Dynasty 22 king ruled for close to 30 years until the time of Osorkon II. Other mummy linens which belong to his reign include three separate bandages dating to his Regnal Years 11, 12, and 23 on the mummy of Khonsmaakheru in Berlin. The bandages are anonymously dated but definitely belong to his reign because Khonsmaakheru wore leather bands that contained a "menat-tab" naming Osorkon I. Secondly, no other king who ruled around Osorkon I's reign had a 23rd Regnal Year including Shoshenq I who died just before the beginning of his Year 22. - King Usermaatre Setepenre/Setepenamun Shoshenq III ruled Egypt's 22nd Dynasty for 39 years according to contemporary historical records. Two Apis Bulls were buried in the fourth and 28th years of his reign and he celebrated his Heb Sed Jubilee in his regnal year 30. Little is known of the precise basis for his successful claim to the throne since he was not a son of Osorkon II and Shoshenq's parentage and family ties are unknown. - Usermaatre Setepenamun Osorkon II was the fifth pharaoh of the Twenty-second Dynasty of Ancient Egypt and the son of Takelot I and Queen Kapes. He ruled Egypt around 872 BC to 837 BC from Tanis, the capital of this Dynasty. After succeeding his father, he was faced with the competing rule of his cousin, king Harsiese A, who controlled both Thebes and the Western Oasis of Egypt. Osorkon feared the serious challenge posed by Harsiese's kingship to his authority but, when Harsiese conveniently died in 860 BC, Osorkon II ensured that this problem would not recur by appointing his own son Nimlot C as the next High Priest of Amun at Thebes. This consolidated the pharaoh's authority over Upper Egypt and meant that Osorkon II ruled over a united Egypt. Osorkon II's reign would be a time of large scale monumental building and prosperity for Egypt. - Pedubastis I or Pedubast I was an Upper Egyptian Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt during the 9th century BC. Based on lunar dates which are known to belong to the reign of his rival in Upper Egypt Takelot II and the fact that Pedubast I first appeared as a local king at Thebes around Year 11 of Takelot II's rule, Pedubast I is today believed to have had his accession date in either 835 BC or 824 BC. This local Pharaoh is recorded as being of ancient Libyan ancestry and ruled Egypt for 25 years according to the redaction of Manetho done by Eusebius. He first became king at Thebes in Year 8 of Shoshenq III and his highest dated Year is his 23rd Year according to Nile Level Text No. 29. This year is equivalent to Year 31 of Shoshenq III of the Tanis based 22nd Dynasty of Egypt; however, since Shoshenq II only controlled Lower Egypt in Memphis and the Delta region, Pedubast and Shoshenq III were not political rivals and may even have established a relationship. Indeed, Shoshenq III's son, the general and army leader Pashedbast B "built a vestibule door to Pylon X at Karnak, and in one and the same commemorative text thereon named his father as [king] Sheshonq (III)" but dated his actions here to Pedubast I. This may show some tacit support for the Pedubast faction by the Tanite based 22nd dynasty king Shoshenq III. - Heqakheperre Shoshenq II or Shoshenq IIa was a pharaoh of the 22nd dynasty of Egypt. He was the only ruler of this Dynasty whose tomb was not plundered by tomb robbers. His final resting place was discovered within an antechamber of Psusennes I's tomb at Tanis by Pierre Montet in 1939. Montet removed the coffin lid of Shoshenq II on March 20, 1939, in the presence of king Farouk of Egypt himself. It proved to contain a large number of jewel-encrusted bracelets and pectorals, along with a beautiful hawkheaded silver coffin and a gold funerary mask. The gold facemask had been placed upon the head of the king. Montet later discovered the intact tombs of two Dynasty 21 kingsPsusennes I and Amenemope a year later in February and April 1940 respectively. Shoshenq II's prenomen, Heqakheperre Setepenre, means "The manifestation of Ra rules, the chosen one of Ra." - Hedjkheperre Setepenre Shoshenq I (Egyptian "ššnq"), (reigned c.943-922 BCE) also known as Sheshonk or Sheshonq I (for discussion of the spelling, see Shoshenq) was a pharaoh of ancient Egypt and the founder of the Twenty-second Dynasty. Of ancient Libyan (Meshwesh-Berber) ancestry, Shoshenq I was the son of Nimlot A, Great Chief of the Ma, and his wife Tentshepeh A, a daughter of a Great Chief of the Ma herself. He is presumed to be the Shishaq mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, and his exploits are carved on the Bubastite Portal at Karnak. - King Hedjkheperre Setepenamun Harsiese or Harsiese A, is viewed by the Egyptologist Kenneth Kitchen in his "Third Intermediate Period in Egypt", to be both a "High Priest of Amun" and the son of the High Priest of Amun Shoshenq C. The archaeological evidence does suggest that he was indeed Shoshenq C's son. However, recent published studies by the German Egyptologist Karl Jansen-Winkeln in "JEA" 81 (1995) have demonstrated that all the monuments of the first (king) Harsiese show that he was never a High Priest of Amun in his own right. Rather both Harsiese A and his son [...du] whose existence is known from inscriptions on the latter's funerary objects at Coptos are only attested as Ordinary Priests of Amun. Instead, while Harsiese A was certainly an independent king at Thebes during the first decade of Osorkon II's kingship, he was a different person from a second person who was also called Harsiese: Harsiese B. Harsiese B was the genuine High Priest of Amun who is attested in office late in Osorkon II's reign, in the regnal year 6 of Shoshenq III and in regnal years 18 and 19 of Pedubast I, according to Jansen-Winkeln. - Thutmose I (sometimes read as "Thothmes," "Thutmosis" or "Tuthmosis I", meaning "Thoth-Born") was the third pharaoh of the 18th dynasty of Egypt. He received the throne after the death of the previous king, Amenhotep I. During his reign, he campaigned deep into the Levant and Nubia, pushing the borders of Egypt farther than ever before. He also built many temples in Egypt, and a tomb for himself in the Valley of the Kings; he is the first king confirmed to have done this (though Amenhotep I may have preceded him). - Shoshenq C was the eldest son of the 22nd Dynasty pharaoh Osorkon I and queen Maatkare, the daughter of Psusennes II, and served as the High Priest of Amun at Thebes during his father's reign. Consequently, he was the most important official in Upper Egypt after the king himself. He has generally been equated with Heqakheperre Shoshenq II by the English Egyptologist Kenneth Kitchen and viewed as a short-lived co-regent to his father based on the Nile God British Museum statue 8 which identifies him as the son of Osorkon I and Queen Maatkare, daughter of Hor-Psusennes but this assumption is unproven. In the statue, Shoshenq C is called "the Master of the Two Lands" and the formula "beloved of Amun" is enclosed within a royal cartouche. However, in the text of the statue, he is not given a specific throne name or prenomen, the use of a cartouche by a royal prince is attested in other periods of Egyptian history such as that of Amenmes, son of Thutmose I, and the documents depicts Shoshenq C as a simple High Priest of Amun on the side of the legs of the Nile God, rather than a king. - Upper Egypt (', shortened to ' ) is the strip of land on both sides of the Nile that extends between Nubia and downriver (northwards) to Lower Egypt. - Harsiese B was a High Priest of Amun in 874 BC. Earlier Egyptologists assumed he was both the High Priest of Amun ( HPA ) and son of the High Priest Shoshenq C , who may have become a king at Thebes . However , recent research by Karl Jansen - Winkeln shows that all the monuments of the first ( King ) Harsiese A demonstrate that he was never High Priest of Amun in his own right , merely a regular Priest of Amun . While the earlier Harsiese was certainly a king at Thebes , he is clearly a different person from the later Harsiese , Harsiese B , who is attested as a High Priest of Amun . Jansen - Winkeln further shows that Harsiese A 's son , ( ... du ) , was only an ordinary Priest of Amun . Harsiese B is first explicitly attested as High Priest of Amun late under Osorkon II 's reign on Statue CGC 42225 , which bears this king 's cartouche . He likely assumed the office at Thebes when the current High Priest , Takelot F , proclaimed himself as king Takelot II in the final 3 years of Osorkon II 's reign . Statue CGC 42225 was dedicated by the `` Letter Writer to Pharaoh '' , Hor IX , who is mentioned on the walls of Temple J at Karnak . Temple J was built in the final years of Osorkon II 's reign by the then serving HPA , Takelot F. Hor IX later served under Pedubast I and Usermaatre Meryamun Shoshenq VI , who were direct contemporaries of Shoshenq III of the Twenty - second Dynasty . Shoshenq III once even dispatched his second son , Pashedbast B , to Thebes where the latter `` added a vestibule door to Pylon X at Karnak , dating it to the reign of Pedubast . '' Hor IX served beyond the 25 - year reign of Pedubast I and lived into Shoshenq VI 's reign under whom his funerary cones were inscribed . Consequently , the High Priest of Amun Harsiese can only be Harsiese B since he was a close contemporary of Hor IX and served late in office under Osorkon II. In contrast , Harsiese A died before the twelfth regnal year of Osorkon II. Harsiese B is also attested in office in the sixth regnal year of Shoshenq III in... - Kenneth Anderson Kitchen (born in 1932) is a British Bible scholar, Ancient Near Eastern historian, and Personal and Brunner Professor Emeritus of Egyptology and Honorary Research Fellow at the School of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology, University of Liverpool, England. He is one of the leading experts on the ancient Egyptian Ramesside Period (i.e., Dynasties 19-20), and the Third Intermediate Period, as well as ancient Egyptian chronology, having written over 250 books and journal articles on these and other subjects since the mid-1950s. He has been described by "The Times" as "the very architect of Egyptian chronology". - Titkheperure or Tyetkheperre Psusennes II <nowiki>[</nowiki>Greek <nowiki>]</nowiki> or Hor-Pasebakhaenniut II <nowiki>[</nowiki>Egyptian "r-p3-sb3--<n>-nwt"<nowiki>]</nowiki>, was the last king of the Twenty-first dynasty of Egypt. His royal name means "Image of the transformations of Re" in Egyptian. Psusennes II is often considered the same person as the High-Priest of Amun known as Psusennes III. The Egyptologist Karl Jansen-Winkeln notes that an important graffito from the Temple of Abydos contains the complete titles of a king "Tyetkheperre Setepenre Pasebakhaenniut Meryamun" "who is simultaneously called the HPA (i.e., High Priest of Amun) and supreme military commander." This suggests that Psusennes was both king at Tanis and the High Priest in Thebes at the same time, meaning he did not resign his office as High Priest of Amun during his reign. The few contemporary attestations from his reign include the aforementioned graffito in Seti I's Abydos temple, an ostracon from Umm el-Qa'ab, an affiliation at Karnak and his presumed burial which consists of a gilded coffin with a royal uraeus and a Mummy, found in an antechamber of Psusennes I's tomb at Tanis. He was a High Priest of Amun at Thebes and the son of Pinedjem II and Istemkheb. His daughter Maatkare B was the Great Royal Wife of Osorkon I. What is the relationship between 'harsiese b' and 'ancient egypt'?
Answer: | Harsiese B was a High Priest of Amun in Ancient Egypt during the 9th century BC. He is attested in office late in Osorkon II's reign, in the regnal year 6 of Shoshenq III and in regnal years 18 and 19 of Pedubast I. He likely assumed the office at Thebes when the current High Priest, Takelot F, proclaimed himself as king Takelot II in the final 3 years of Osorkon II's reign. Harsiese B is also attested in office in the sixth regnal year of Shoshenq III. He is viewed by some Egyptologists to be both a "High Priest of Amun" and the son of the High Priest of Amun Shoshenq C. However, recent research by Karl Jansen-Winkeln shows that all the monuments of the first (King) Harsiese A demonstrate that he was never High Priest of Amun in his own right, merely a regular Priest of Amun. While the earlier Harsiese was certainly a king at Thebes, he is clearly a different person from the later Harsiese, Harsiese B, who is attested as a High Priest of Amun. |

"Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word "Christós" (), a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term "mashiach". - Ukrainians ("ukrayintsi") are an East Slavic ethnic group native to Ukraine, which is by total population the sixth-largest nation in Europe. The Constitution of Ukraine applies the term 'Ukrainians' to all its citizens. Also among historical names of the people of Ukraine Rusyns (Ruthenians), Cossacks, etc. can be found. According to some dictionary definitions, a descriptive name for the "inhabitants of Ukraine" is "Ukrainian" or "Ukrainian people". Belarusians and Russians are considered among the bloodline of Ukrainians, while Rusyns are another closely related group, or an ethnic subgroup of Ukrainians. - A given name (also known as a personal name, Christian name, first name, or forename) is a part of a person's full nomenclature. It identifies a specific person, and differentiates that person from other members of a group, such as a family or clan, with whom that person shares a common surname. The term "given name" refers to the fact that the name usually is "bestowed" upon a person, normally "given" to a child by its parents at or near the time of birth. This contrasts with a surname (also known as a family name, last name, or gentile name), which is normally inherited, and shared with other members of the child's immediate family. - A modern Belarusian name of a person consists of three parts : given name , patronymic , and family name , similarly to names in other East Slavic cultures : Russian names and Ukrainian names . - Ukrainian names are given names that originated in Ukraine. In addition to the first (given) names, Ukrainians also have patronymic and family names. What entity does 'belarusian name' has the relation 'ethnic group' with?
Answer: | The entity that the 'Belarusian name' has a relation with the 'ethnic group' is the Belarusians. The Belarusians are an East Slavic ethnic group native to Belarus, which is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe. The modern Belarusian name of a person consists of three parts: given name, patronymic, and family name, similar to names in other East Slavic cultures such as Russian and Ukrainian names. The given name is a part of a person's full nomenclature that identifies a specific person and differentiates that person from other members of a group, such as a family or clan, with whom that person shares a common surname. The patronymic and family names are also important components of a Belarusian name, and they reflect the person's lineage and family background. Therefore, the 'Belarusian name' has a direct relation to the ethnic group of Belarusians, who have their own unique naming traditions and cultural practices. |

t0.709781 | You are an AI assistant that follows instruction extremely well. Help as much as you can. | Please answer the following question: Information: - Dwingeloo 1 is a barred spiral galaxy about 10 million light-years away from the Earth, in the constellation Cassiopeia. It lies in the Zone of Avoidance and is heavily obscured by the Milky Way. The size and mass of Dwingeloo 1 are comparable to those of Triangulum Galaxy. - Dwingeloo 2 is a small irregular galaxy discovered in 1996 and located about 10 million light - years away from the Earth . Its discovery was a result of Dwingeloo Obscured Galaxy Survey ( DOGS ) of the Zone of Avoidance . Dwingeloo 2 is a companion galaxy of Dwingeloo 1 . Dwingeloo 2 was first detected at radio wavelengths from the 21 cm emission line of neutral atomic hydrogen ( known to astronomers as HI ) in the course of follow - up observations after the discovery of Dwingeloo 1 . Dwingeloo 2 is thought to be a member of the IC 342/Maffei Group , a galaxy group adjacent to the Local Group . The galaxy recedes from the Milky Way at the speed of about 241 km / s. The visible radius of Dwingeloo 2 is approximately 2 , which at the distance of 3 Mpc corresponds to about 2 kpc . Dwingeloo 2 has a well defined rotating HI disk inclined at approximately 69 ° with respect to observer . The distribution of the neutral hydrogen in Dwingeloo 2 is quite irregular , and it is detected as far as 3.2 kpc from the center of the galaxy . The total mass of the galaxy within this radius is estimated at 2.3 billion Solar masses , while the mass of the neutral hydrogen is estimated at about 100 million Solar masses . The total mass of the galaxy is about five times less than that of Dwingeloo 1 . The irregular structure of Dwingeloo 2 is likely related to its interaction with the much larger nearby galaxy Dwingeloo 1 , which lies at a distance of only 24 kpc from Dwingeloo 2 . - A galaxy is a gravitationally bound system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter. The word galaxy is derived from the Greek "", literally "milky", a reference to the Milky Way. Galaxies range in size from dwarfs with just a few billion stars to giants with one hundred trillion stars, each orbiting its galaxy's center of mass. Galaxies are categorized according to their visual morphology as elliptical, spiral and irregular. Many galaxies are thought to have black holes at their active centers. The Milky Way's central black hole, known as Sagittarius A*, has a mass four million times greater than the Sun. As of March 2016, GN-z11 is the oldest and most distant observed galaxy with a comoving distance of 32 billion light-years from Earth, and observed as it existed just 400 million years after the Big Bang. - An irregular galaxy is a galaxy that does not have a distinct regular shape, unlike a spiral or an elliptical galaxy. Irregular galaxies do not fall into any of the regular classes of the Hubble sequence, and they are often chaotic in appearance, with neither a nuclear bulge nor any trace of spiral arm structure. - The Triangulum Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 3 million light-years (ly) from Earth in the constellation Triangulum. It is catalogued as Messier 33 or NGC 598, and is sometimes informally referred to as the Pinwheel Galaxy, a nickname it shares with Messier 101. The Triangulum Galaxy is the third-largest member of the Local Group of galaxies, behind the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy. It is one of the most distant permanent objects that can be viewed with the naked eye. What entity does 'dwingeloo 2' has the relation 'constellation' with?
A: | Dwingeloo 2 has the relation 'constellation' with Cassiopeia. |

t0.308003 | You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. | I have a new situation: There was a soccer match between Red team and Blue team. Blue team got there early, warmed up properly and were ready for the game. Red team arrived late and almost skipped warming up entirely. Costly decision, as it turns out, because they lost. But I can use this background: Sometimes muscles and tendons get injured when a person starts doing an activity before they have warmed up properly. A warm up is a slow increase in the intensity of a physical activity that prepares muscles for an activity. Warming up increases the blood flow to the muscles and increases the heart rate. Warmed-up muscles and tendons are less likely to get injured. For example, before running or playing soccer, a person might jog slowly to warm muscles and increase their heart rate. Even elite athletes need to warm up ( Figure below ). What is an answer for this question: Which team had less people with an increased blood flow to the muscles before the match?
The answer to this question is: | Based on the given background information, it can be inferred that the Blue team had more people with an increased blood flow to the muscles before the match. This is because the Blue team arrived early and warmed up properly, which would have increased their heart rate and blood flow to their muscles. On the other hand, the Red team arrived late and almost skipped warming up entirely, which means that they would have had less people with an increased blood flow to their muscles before the match.
It is important to note that warming up is a crucial part of any physical activity, as it helps to prevent injuries and prepares the body for the activity ahead. By gradually increasing the intensity of the activity, the body is able to adjust and prepare for the demands of the activity. This is why even elite athletes need to warm up before their competitions, as it helps to optimize their performance and reduce the risk of injury.
In conclusion, based on the given information, it can be assumed that the Blue team had more people with an increased blood flow to the muscles before the match, as they arrived early and warmed up properly. The Red team, on the other hand, arrived late and almost skipped warming up entirely, which means that they would have had less people with an increased blood flow to their muscles before the match. |

Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: Here's a not-very-good novelistic treatment of the s/m scene. As an s/m scene player myself, I found very little here that rings true, and as a reader of crime fiction, I found weak characters, a middling plot and a total lack of psychological depth. For me the worst aspect was the social satire; I found it less pithy than pitiful. I will give the author a point or two for daring to grapple with the so-called sexual underground, though his notion of "decadence" is fairly tame. Half a cheer and hopes for a better performance in the future. Answer:
Answer: | Based on this review, the user would not recommend this product.
Step 1: Analyze the review content
The review mentions that the novel has weak characters, a middling plot, and a lack of psychological depth. The reviewer also found the social satire aspect to be pitiful rather than pithy. The user does acknowledge the author's attempt to tackle the subject matter but mentions that their idea of "decadence" is tame.
Step 2: Determine the user's overall sentiment
The overall sentiment of the review is negative, with only half a cheer given and the reviewer stating that they hope for a better performance in the future.
Step 3: Provide the answer based on the sentiment
Since the sentiment is negative and the review highlighted several issues with the novel, it is safe to conclude that the user would not recommend this product. |

"Annoying. Cant finish episode. Drops me half way through ted talks and wont let me fast forward. Why cant I download episodes."
Answer: | Based on the review provided, I would rate it as ★★. Here are the reasons for my rating:
- The reviewer has expressed annoyance with the service, which indicates a negative experience.
- The reviewer has mentioned a specific issue with the service, which is that they are unable to finish an episode and are being dropped halfway through. This is a significant problem that would likely frustrate many users.
- The reviewer has also mentioned that they are unable to fast forward, which is another limitation of the service.
- Finally, the reviewer has expressed a desire to download episodes, which suggests that they are not satisfied with the current options available to them.
Overall, while the review is not entirely negative, it does highlight some significant issues with the service that would likely impact the user experience. As such, I believe a ★★ rating is appropriate. |
t0.930694 | Please answer the following question: Question: What group may be one of the few where playing the bugle has a big role? Options: - trumpet - military base - military band - american army - music store Explain why a human would choose "military band" to answer the question above:
Answer: | A human would choose "military band" to answer the question above because playing the bugle has a big role in military bands. Bugles are commonly used in military ceremonies and events, such as funerals, parades, and flag ceremonies. Military bands also often include other instruments, such as trumpets, but the bugle specifically has a significant role in military music. Therefore, "military band" is the most appropriate answer to the question. |

Nigerian officials announced two weeks ago that they had struck a deal with the Islamist terror group. The deal, the government said, included the release of more than 200 girls whose kidnapping at a boarding school in the nation's north stunned the world. In a video released Saturday, the Islamist group's notorious leader fired off a series of denials. "Don't you know the over 200 Chibok schoolgirls have converted to Islam?" Abubakar Shekau said. "They have now memorized two chapters of the Quran." Shekau slammed reports of their planned release. "We married them off. They are in their marital homes," he said, chuckling. The group's leader also denied knowing the negotiator with whom the government claimed it worked out a deal, saying he does not represent Boko Haram. "We will not spare him and will slaughter him if we get him," he said of the negotiator. It wasn't clear when the video was made. Mike Omeri, a government spokesman, said these assertions contradict those made in the group's talks with the Nigerian government. Omeri said the government will do everything possible to verify the claims made in the video. "We've heard about the video, and we can say the road to peace is bumpy -- and you cannot expect otherwise," Omeri said. "Nigeria has been fighting a war, and wars don't end overnight." Nigeria said officials met with Boko Haram in Chad twice during talks mediated by Chadian President Idriss Deby. The ceasefire deal announced on October 17 followed a month of negotiations with representatives of the group, said Hassan Tukur, an aide to Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan. After the deal was announced, the aide said final negotiations on the girls' release would be completed at a meeting a week later in Chad. That day passed without any signs of the girls. Boko Haram a growing challenge. In the video, Shekau talked not of peace but of more violence -- promising more "war, striking and killing with gun." This strategy appears to be playing out in parts of Nigeria, where Boko Haram fighters have continued deadly attacks on villages despite government claims of a ceasefire. More people have been abducted and scores killed in recent weeks, including one attack a day after the ceasefire that left eight dead. Days later, the Islamist terror group abducted at least 60 young women and girls from Christian villages in northeast Nigeria. Heavily armed fighters left 1,500 naira, or about $9, and kola nuts as a bride price for each of the women abducted, residents said. For its part, Nigeria isn't backing down. It is stepping up its military campaign against militants and criminals in some parts of the West African nation, Nigeria's defense ministry said Saturday. The military said its airstrikes and ground operations have repelled attacks against civilians in Adamawa and Borno, two states in the northeast that have been strongholds and frequent targets for Boko Haram. Officials are "studying" the latest video, even as the military continues to recognize the talks aimed at assuring the release of the kidnapped schoolgirls, the ministry said. Boko Haram, whose name translates to "Western education is sin" in the Hausa language, is trying to impose strict Sharia law across Nigeria, which is split between a majority Muslim north and a mostly Christian south. Like ISIS, it has ambitions for a caliphate, or religious state. The group's attacks have intensified in recent years in an apparent show of defiance for the nation's military onslaught. Its ambitions appear to have expanded to the destruction of the government. As part of its insurgency, it has bombed schools, churches and mosques, kidnapped women and children, and assassinated politicians and religious leaders alike. CNN's Isha Sesay, Lillian Leposo, Christabelle Fombu, Greg Botelho and Nana Karikari-apau contributed to this report.

Is this product review positive? Title: The Necronomicon. Review: I have spent the majority of my existence translating ancient tomes of black magic and wizardry, none of which have rivaled this vile book.The incantations and rites contained herein are of the most vile and sinister nature, and anyone brazen enough to use them shall surely be imprisoned in the most fiery of hells.Oh hell, Im kidding! I've never translated a tome, im a 23 year old customer service representative at an insurance provider!This book is simply a novelty item, not to be taken seriously. Some person in some far off city made this book up because they knew they would make big bank off of all the teenage wiccan rebels that would buy it and try to summon a demon to eat their parents. Come on folks lighten up a little bit, lets move out of moms basement and stop trying to travel the astral plane in search of ancient demons! Answer:
Answer: | Yes, the product review is positive. The reviewer is stating that the book is a novelty item and not to be taken seriously. They are making a joke about the book's content and the people who may be interested in it. The reviewer is essentially saying that the book is harmless and not a serious threat to anyone. |

Title: McCulloch Chipper Shredder - a good machine Review: I have had this machine for two weeks, and it is a neat little machine. It will take branches up to about an inch in diameter, but that depends on whether it is hard or soft wood. You must feed the larger branches *very* slowly to keep it from choking, but it is easy to clear when it chokes. I have used it for about six hours total, about an hour a day. I really like it. However, after two weeks it suddenly stopped working. Under warranty, I took it to my local authorized service center; they said some of the wiring had come loose. They fixed it, no charge to me, said it wasn't anything I had caused. It was tricky to find an authorized service center - look on the net for Poulan rather than McCulloch.I have mostly used it for chipping, have done only a little shredding. Seems to work great for both.Neat little machine. Answer:
A: | Yes, the product review is mostly positive. The reviewer states that the McCulloch Chipper Shredder is a neat little machine that works great for chipping and shredding. They experienced a minor issue with wiring coming loose but it was quickly fixed under warranty at no charge. Overall, the reviewer likes the machine and the review presents it in a positive light. |

While performing the task think step-by-step and justify your steps. | Question: Please answer correctly the following question related to the paragraph below. Which village has more dangerous cycling conditions? Two villages are inhabited by lots of people that ride bicycles. Hill village is located on a mountain and gets lots of rain, and Low village is situated in a valley, and has more sunny days. Hint: In slippery conditions some riders prefer to ride fixed because they believe the transmission provides increased feedback on back tire grip. However, there is also an increased risk of loss of control in such conditions. This is especially so when taking into account the large number of riders who ride brakeless. These riders must brake entirely through the drivetrain. Ideally this is done by resisting the forward motion of the pedals, shedding speed while the bike is still moving. Alternatively, though far less efficiently, one can brake by stopping the motion of the pedals in mid-rotation, causing the rear wheel to lock in place, allowing the bicycle to skid and slow down from kinetic friction (see below).[22] Descending any significant gradient is more difficult as the rider must spin the cranks at high speed (sometimes at 170 rpm or more), or use the brakes to slow down. Some consider that the enforced fast spin when descending increases suppleness or flexibility, which is said to improve pedalling performance on any type of bicycle; however the performance boost is negligible compared to the benefits of riding a free wheel.[23]
Answer: | Hill village has more dangerous cycling conditions. The paragraph states that Hill village is located on a mountain and gets lots of rain, which can create slippery conditions. This increases the risk of loss of control for cyclists, especially those who ride brakeless and have to brake through the drivetrain. Additionally, descending any significant gradient in Hill village can be more difficult due to the need for a fast spin or use of brakes to slow down. In contrast, Low village has more sunny days, which implies better cycling conditions. |

Linden asks to interrogate Mills , but Skinner ( Elias Koteas ) says he 'll just talk to Danette .
Linden asks to interrogate Skinner but Mills ( Elias Koteas ) says he 'll only talk to Danette . | The two statements are similar in structure and meaning, but there are some differences in the characters involved. In the first statement, Linden is asking to interrogate Mills, but Skinner intervenes and says he will talk to Danette instead. In the second statement, Linden is asking to interrogate Skinner, but Mills intervenes and says he will only talk to Danette.
In both cases, there is a request for an interrogation or questioning of a particular character. However, in both cases, another character steps in and redirects the conversation to a different person. This suggests that there may be some reluctance or resistance to the original request, and that the characters involved may be trying to avoid the interrogation or questioning.
The fact that both statements involve the same character, Elias Koteas, playing different roles (Skinner in the first statement, Mills in the second) may also be significant. It could suggest that Koteas' characters are somehow connected or involved in the same situation, and that their actions are part of a larger plot or story arc.
Overall, while the two statements have similar meanings, there are some subtle differences in the characters and their actions that may be important for understanding the context and implications of the situation. |
