flan.1577778 | You are a helpful assistant, who always provide explanation. Think like you are answering to a five year old. | This is some data: 2 TEAM boston; 2 SCORE w 95-79 (ot).
Generate a detailed description of this data | Okay, let me explain this data to you.
There are two teams playing against each other in a game. The name of one of the teams is Boston.
The game ended with a score of 95-79. This means that one team scored 95 points and the other team scored 79 points.
The letters "w" and "ot" are also included in the data. The "w" stands for "win" which means that the team with the score of 95 won the game. The "ot" stands for "overtime" which means that the game went into extra time because the scores were tied at the end of the regular time.
So, to summarize, two teams named Boston played against each other in a game that ended with a score of 95-79. The team with the score of 95 won the game in overtime. |

Office workers should be on their feet for a minimum of 2 hours daily during working hours, recommends the first ever UK guidance designed to curb the health risks of too much cumulative sitting time, and published online in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.
This daily quota should eventually be bumped up to 4 hours a day, breaking up prolonged periods of sitting with the use of sit-stand desks, standing based work, and regular walk-abouts, it says.
The guidance, which evaluates and distils the available evidence, was drawn up by a panel of international experts, at the behest of Public Health England and a UK community interest company (Active Working CIC).
It aims to make some core recommendations, amid the growing body of research linking prolonged periods spent seated?as opposed to being generally physically inactive?with a heightened risk of serious illness and premature death, and the burgeoning market of workplace products developed in response to the emerging evidence.
The authors point out that in the UK sedentary behaviour now accounts for 60% of people's waking hours and for 70% of those at high risk of a long term condition.
"For those working in offices, 65-75% of their working hours are spent sitting, of which more than 50% of this is accumulated in prolonged periods of sustained sitting," they write.
"The evidence is clearly emerging that a first 'behavioural' step could be simply to get people standing and moving more frequently as part of their working day," they say, adding that this is likely to be more achievable than targeted exercise.
Based on the current evidence they recommend:
2 hours daily of standing and light activity (light walking) during working hours, eventually progressing to a total of 4 hours for all office workers whose jobs are predominantly desk based
Regularly breaking up seated based work with standing based work, with the use of adjustable sit-stand desks/work stations
Avoidance of prolonged static standing, which may be as harmful as prolonged sitting
Altering posture/light walking to alleviate possible musculoskeletal pain and fatigue as part of the adaptive process
As well as encouraging staff to embrace other healthy behaviours, such as cutting down on drinking and smoking, eating a nutritious diet, and alleviating stress, employers should also warn their staff about the potential dangers of too much time spent sitting down either at work or at home
Some companies have already invested time and money creating a more active working environment for their staff, but those that haven't should evaluate how best to achieve the recommendations, they say.
This could include deciding when and how staff take breaks which involve standing and movement; and desk designs and technologies that allow employees to do their job more easily either at their desk or from other locations in the office while standing up, they suggest.
The authors acknowledge that much of the evidence they draw on for their recommendations is based on observational and retrospective studies, which make it difficult to prove direct cause and effect.
Nevertheless, they emphasise: "While longer term intervention studies are required, the level of consistent evidence accumulated to date, and the public health context of rising chronic diseases, suggest initial guidelines are justified."

You may want to stand up while you read this -- and a lot of other stuff.
Experts now say you should start standing up at work for at least two hours a day -- and work your way toward four.
That's a long-awaited answer for a growing number of workers who may have heard of the terrible health effects of prolonged sitting and been wondering whether they should buy standing desks or treadmill desks.
Today, the average office worker sits for about 10 hours, first all those hours in front of the computer, plowing through e-mails, making calls or writing proposals — and eating lunch. And then all those hours of sitting in front of the TV or surfing the Web at home.
Medical researchers have long warned that prolonged sitting is dangerous, associated with a significantly higher risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, cancer, and depression, as well as muscle and joint problems. Some have gone on to say that the office chair is worse for your health than smoking and kills more people than HIV. Even working out vigorously before or after work may not compensate for extending sitting.
But now, those researchers have come up with formal suggestions for how much time to sit and to stand that could dramatically change our work habits.
According to the expert statement released in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Americans should begin to stand, move and take breaks for at least two out of eight hours at work. Then, Americans should gradually work up to spending at least half of your eight-hour work day in what researchers call these “light-intensity activities.”
“Our whole culture invites you to take a seat. We say, ‘Are you comfortable? Please take a seat?’ So we know we have a huge job in front of us,” said Gavin Bradley, director of Active Working, an international group aimed at reducing excessive sitting that, along with Public Health England, convened the expert panel. “Our first order of business is to get people to spend two hours of their work day NOT sitting. However you do it, the point is to just get off your rear end.”
Bradley said the first level of activity is simply standing.
“I’m standing right now while I’m talking on the phone,” he said. While the group endorses the use of sit/stand desks, Bradley said there are other activities that can get people to move for two hours during the work day. “Taking your calls standing. Walking around. Pacing. Holding standing meetings. Walking meetings. Walking over to a colleague’s desk instead of sending an e-mail. Using the stairs instead of the elevator. Taking a lunch break. Simple stuff.”
Bradley himself has changed the way he works completely since taking on this challenge to get people out of their seats: He starts his day standing on a comfort mat and has his sit-stand desk programmed to tell him, through a pop up notification on his computer, to change his posture every 20 to 30 minutes.
“It’s all about mixing it up,” he said. “Metabolism slows down 90 percent after 30 minutes of sitting. The enzymes that move the bad fat from your arteries to your muscles, where it can get burned off, slow down. The muscles in your lower body are turned off. And after two hours, good cholesterol drops 20 percent. Just getting up for five minutes is going to get things going again. These things are so simple they’re almost stupid.”
Researchers have known about the link between inactivity and higher rates of sickness and mortality dating back to studies of bus drivers and office-based postal workers in the 1950s. And more recent observational studies comparing workers who sit for long periods against those who sit for fewer hours have found that sedentary workers have more than twice the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, a 13 percent increased risk of cancer and 17 percent increased risk of dying.
At the same time, with the rise of office work, the use of cars and buses rather than walking or bicycles, and the rise of leisure pursuits like TV and computer games that favor the couch potato, the world has become more sedentary. The World Health Organization estimates that 95 percent of the world’s adult population is inactive, failing to meet minimum recommendations for health of 30 minutes of moderate to intense physical activity five times a week.
Authors of the new guidelines said they were a starting point only, and designed to give people some kind of research-based target, rather than rely on the claims made by the manufacturers of treadmill and sit-stand desks that are becoming all the rage. (More than 90 percent of workers in Scandinavia have access to them.)
"This is an initial guidance, which we do expect to have to evolve with time,” said James Buckley, one of the report authors and a professor at the Institute of Medicine at the University Centre Shrewsbury and University of Chester. “But to ensure the marketing and promotions people to race away with self-determined claims, we have felt it is better to have some guidance rather than no guidance that is some how linked with scientific evidence.”
James Levine, an obesity expert at the Mayo Clinic and author of the book, “Stand Up,” though not involved in the guidelines, said they were a good start. In his work, he found that the reason why some people seem to eat a lot, never work out, yet never put on weight, is because they’re standing, walking and moving more throughout the day, rather than sitting for hours on end.
The guidelines "show we need to fundamentally rethink the way we’re working,” Levine said. Some small studies, he said, have found not only health improved, but also productivity ticked up 15 percent when people stood and moved more during the day. “The way we have developed our workplaces and even our schools is actually profoundly unhealthy. It’s a real design failure.”
But it’s not just office design, the researchers say. It’s work culture. Shannon Wurthman is a case in point. When Wurthman, 29, moved with her husband to Urbana, Ill., she left her office job and became a freelance consultant for web development companies and social media organizations. She began working at home.
“In the office, there’s so much pressure to sit – the feeling is, if your butt’s not in your seat, you’re probably not doing your job,” she said. “But now that I'm working at home, I don’t get up and walk around to talk to people. I'm not walking to meetings. I'm not even walking to and from my car in the parking lot.”
She has the flexibility to take walks during the day. But she doesn’t. “I get so caught up in my work,” she said. Plus, her work in social media keeps her digitally connected at all hours. And, research has found, people who telework tend to put in longer hours than office workers.
But Levine and other researchers said change is on the horizon. Some companies are holding standing meetings. Jennifer Heimberg, a physicist at the National Academy of Sciences, goes on a run with her boss for her annual performance evaluation. "It can be easier to introduce difficult topics when you aren’t sitting across the desk from each other," she said.
Ikea is marketing a cheaper sit-stand desk. And Apple’s new watch can be programmed to tell people when it’s time to move.
Jessica DeGroot, who heads the nonprofit ThirdPath Institute designed to help people better integrate their work and home lives, can also find herself caught up in work.
“But I know that I think better when I get up and walk outside,” she said.
So at a recent conference, she paired up attendees and had them “Walk and Talk” from 2:30 to 3 p.m.
“At the typical conference, people have been sitting all day, and by 2 or 3 o’clock, they’re drained,” she said. “Instead, when people came back from the walk, they were smiling and engaged. Strangers sat down next to each other just so they could keep on talking they were so jazzed. It was fun to watch.” ||||| British people sit for 8.9 hours each day (on average).

An international group of experts was invited by Public Health England and a UK community interest company (Active Working CIC) to provide guidelines for employers to promote the avoidance of prolonged periods of sedentary work. The set of recommendations was developed from the totality of the current evidence, including long-term epidemiological studies and interventional studies of getting workers to stand and/or move more frequently. The evidence was ranked in quality using the four levels of the American College of Sports Medicine. The derived guidance is as follows: for those occupations which are predominantly desk based, workers should aim to initially progress towards accumulating 2 h/day of standing and light activity (light walking) during working hours, eventually progressing to a total accumulation of 4 h/day (prorated to part-time hours). To achieve this, seated-based work should be regularly broken up with standing-based work, the use of sit–stand desks, or the taking of short active standing breaks. Along with other health promotion goals (improved nutrition, reducing alcohol, smoking and stress), companies should also promote among their staff that prolonged sitting, aggregated from work and in leisure time, may significantly and independently increase the risk of cardiometabolic diseases and premature mortality. It is appreciated that these recommendations should be interpreted in relation to the evidence from which they were derived, largely observational and retrospective studies, or short-term interventional studies showing acute cardiometabolic changes. While longer term intervention studies are required, the level of consistent evidence accumulated to date, and the public health context of rising chronic diseases, suggest initial guidelines are justified. We hope these guidelines stimulate future research, and that greater precision will be possible within future iterations. ||||| Research co-commissioned by Public Health England calls for a workplace revolution through use of sit-stand desks to avoid risks of a sedentary lifestyle
Office employees should be on feet for four hours of working day, study says
Office workers should spend a minimum of two hours on their feet at work – building up to an ideal four hours – in order to avoid the ill effects of a sedentary lifestyle, according to a study co-commissioned by Public Health England.
Research has long linked excessive time spent sitting to increased risk of morbidity or premature death but the advice, co-commissioned by Public Health England and published on Monday, represents the first time British workers have been provided with quantifiable targets for getting out of their seats.
The study authors, who include experts from the UK, US and Australia, call for a revolution in the workplace through the use of sit-stand desks, standing-based work and regular walkabouts.
They also urge further research into whether facilities such as toilets should be moved further away from staff, some emails could be replaced by hand-delivered messages and employees could have alarms on computers or personal motion assessment devices prompting them to move.
Study co-author Gavin Bradley, from Active Working, a community interest company which co-commissioned the study and set up www.getbritainstanding.org, said: “We are creatures of habit and we have come to the wrong conclusion, that sitting is the optimum way of conducting office work. We need an environment where people feel much more liberated to do desk standing.”
Reviewing existing scientific evidence, which dictated the thresholds they set, the authors found that compared with those who sit the least, those who sit most are more than twice as likely to develop type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease and have a 13% and 17% increased risk of cancer incidence and mortality respectively.
Office workers spend 65% to 75% of their working hours sitting, half of which is in prolonged periods of sustained sitting, according to the study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.

British people sit for 8.9 hours each day on average and one study suggested that, for those sitting more than seven hours a day, there is a 5% increased risk of premature death with each additional hour off their feet.
Bradley said some tasks, such as writing a paper or numerical analysis, were better done sitting but others such as meetings or going through your inbox were actually more productive when standing.
To that end the study champions sit-stand adjustable desks, which only 1% of office workers in the UK have access to, compared with 90% in Scandinavia, according to research.
They typically cost hundreds of pounds each but the study says benefits are accrued through improved productivity, less absenteeism and reduced healthcare costs.
However, the CBI responded cautiously to the study. “Companies will generally take a commonsense approach, and offices can be redesigned to encourage different ways of working, but ultimately firms will seek to balance the practicalities of time spent away from desks with the needs of the business,” a spokesman said.
Professor Maureen Baker, chair of the Royal College of GPs, representing members of a profession who were urged to stand up during consultations in an article in the BMJ last year, said GPs tended to move about anyway but that the study “provides food for thought”.
She added: “In many cases – particularly for smaller organisations – the adjustments necessary to allow employees to stand for a significant proportion of the day might be unrealistic. It is, however, important that any employer recognises the responsibility they have to maintain their employees’ good health.”
Bradley said staff should not feel shy about standing up at their desk, whatever the reaction of their employer or colleagues.
“We are all sheep but as soon as the black sheep has his finger on the pulse and as soon as the shepherd or employer accepts that, they soon become a white sheep again,” he said.
The study stresses that standing still for prolonged periods of time also carries health risks and warns that people who start standing more “could expect musculoskeletal sensations and some fatigue as part of the positive adaptive process”.
Dr Ann Hoskins, of Public Health England, welcomed the study but said “more research needs to be carried out before daily targets for work place activity are recommended”. |||||

Can you help me answer a few questions? If you can't, please say "No I can't". Question: Who is Milady de Winter? Movie title: The Three Musketeers Movie plot: In Venice, the Three Musketeers Athos (Matthew Macfadyen), Porthos (Ray Stevenson) and Aramis (Luke Evans), with the help of Athos' lover, Milady de Winter (Milla Jovovich), steal airship blueprints made by Leonardo da Vinci. However, they are betrayed by Milady, who gives the blueprints to the Duke of Buckingham (Orlando Bloom). Upon returning to France, the Musketeers are forced to disband by Cardinal Richelieu (Christoph Waltz) for their failure.One year later, the young D'Artagnan (Logan Lerman) leaves Gascony for Paris in hopes of becoming a Musketeer, like his father once was, only to learn that they no longer exist. D'Artagnan ends up challenging Captain Rochefort (Mads Mikkelsen), the leader of Richelieu's guard, to a duel after being offended by him, but Rochefort merely shoots him while he's distracted. In an attempt to get revenge, D'Artagnan offends Athos, Porthos and Aramis for petty reasons, and schedules duels with each of them, at the same day and at the same place, but in different times, not knowing who they are.Before they can duel, however, D'Artagnan and the Musketeers are attacked by the guards for breaking the law by having a public duel. They fight the soldiers off, at which point D'Artagnan discovers their true identities, but end up being captured and brought before the young King Louis XIII (Freddie Fox) and his wife, Queen Anne (Juno Temple). Richelieu attempts to convince them to execute the four prisoners, but they are too impressed, and congratulate them instead, much to Richelieu's anger.Later, Richelieu meets with Milady, who is actually working for him. He orders her to plant false love letters among Queen Anne's possessions and steal Queen Anne's diamond necklace and hide it in the Tower of London with the objective of framing Queen Anne of having an affair with the Duke of Buckingham, who is in France on behalf of the King of England, and who has built a fully armed airship using the designs stolen from the Musketeers. The affair would force King Louis to execute Queen Anne...
Answer: | Milady de Winter is a character in the movie "The Three Musketeers". She is portrayed by Milla Jovovich and is the lover of Athos, one of the Three Musketeers. Milady de Winter helps the Musketeers steal airship blueprints made by Leonardo da Vinci in Venice, but later betrays them by giving the blueprints to the Duke of Buckingham. She is later revealed to be working for Cardinal Richelieu and is ordered to plant false love letters among Queen Anne's possessions and steal her diamond necklace to frame her for having an affair with the Duke of Buckingham. |

Perturbation hypothesis: suppose "the moons gravitational pull weakens" happens, how will it affect LESS erosion by the ocean. Does the supposed perturbation have an effect (direct or indirect) on the process?
A: | If the moon's gravitational pull weakens, it will have a direct effect on the ocean tides. The tides will be less strong, which means that the waves hitting the land will be less powerful. As a result, there will be less erosion of the beaches and cliffs.
However, the weakening of the moon's gravitational pull may also have an indirect effect on the process. The tides are not the only factor that affects erosion by the ocean. Other factors such as wind, currents, and storms also play a role. If the weakening of the moon's gravitational pull affects any of these factors, it could indirectly affect erosion by the ocean.
For example, if the weakening of the moon's gravitational pull causes changes in ocean currents, it could change the way sand and rocks are carried into the ocean. This could lead to changes in the distribution of sand and rocks on other land or the bottom of the ocean.
Overall, the direct effect of the weakening of the moon's gravitational pull on erosion by the ocean is clear - it will lead to less erosion. However, the indirect effects are less clear and would require further investigation to fully understand. |

I have come to Millbrook Proving Ground, where cars are put through their paces, to be put through mine. And to make it easy, I'll be behind the wheel of the Vauxhall Corsa ecoFlex, wired up to measure everything from fuel consumption to CO2 emissions, throttle position to air inlet temperature.
The idea is that I pootle round the route as normal, then, after a quick tutorial on ecologically efficient driving, retake the course and compare the two sets of data. Sounds a doddle, doesn't it? I thought so, too, until I got behind the wheel.
The proving ground features the driving conditions typical of Britain's roads; roundabouts, motorway, stop-start urban stretches and, of course, potholes. After negotiating all of the above, with an automotive engineer in the passenger seat, I take the scenic route up a winding hill, where car adverts are often filmed. The area is known as the Alpine Hills. And with good reason.
On reaching the top, I peer over the brow of said hill and scream aloud at the 21 per cent gradient slope that greets me. I am so appalled that I almost burst into tears as, foot on the brake pedal, I jerk the car down a couple of feet at a time, shamefully bunnyhopping to the bottom.
Back in the meeting room afterwards, my driving data appears as a series of graphs; and, it's fair to say, it's dismal. Under perfect laboratory conditions, the Corsa ecoFlex uses a gallon every 76.3 miles. I have managed just 41mpg and the peaks and troughs show I've been revving the engine too much, braking too abruptly and generally been very erratic – and not just at the part where I thought I might die.
In order to reduce my fuel consumption and therefore my C02 emissions, I am advised to adopt three key strategies. The first is to reduce the engine revs, by changing up at 2,000rpm.
Secondly, I am advised to remove my foot from the accelerator and coast in gear wherever possible, so the car is carried along by its momentum and not using fuel.
The third strategy is to accelerate gently. Acceleration uses a lot of fuel, so I am encouraged to be light-footed by imagining that there is an egg between the sole of my foot and the pedal.
And so I take to the road again, this time making a conscious effort to put these principles into practice; gliding gracefully towards Stop signs, smoothly changing gear and easing off the throttle.
This time at the Alpine Hills I am prepared, but no less terrified. In fact, I stall twice with nervousness, but then I take a deep breath and – yes! – coast down the hill, albeit with my foot resting lightly on the brake.
The results are markedly better; even at first glance the graph is less dramatic. I have reduced my fuel consumption to 46mpg, a difference of 11 per cent. This represents a saving of 110 litres of fuel, or £131 a year at today's prices. My CO2 emissions are reduced by 10 per cent, a decrease of 290kg annually. What's more, I took roughly the same amount of time to complete the course, so I wasn't going at granny speed (well, no more than usual) to achieve the improvements.
A fortnight after the course, I am still endeavouring to coast, change gear before the engine is screaming for mercy and go easy on the accelerator. I'm getting a real buzz from saving fuel, money and a tiny bit of the planet. Just imagine what a difference I could make if I were actually a good driver... | "Driving for Efficiency: How I Learned to Save Fuel and Reduce CO2 Emissions" |

Output: | The given text contains offensive language and a reference to sexual content. Therefore, the post is classified as sexually offensive and the output label is 'yes'. The use of the word "pussy" in reference to "installment plans" is a crude and derogatory reference to women's bodies. Additionally, the question about "saying her when you get it" implies objectification and ownership of women's bodies. Therefore, the post is deemed sexually offensive and the label 'yes' is assigned. |
flan.1333166 | You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. | Read this: As is known from the "Sumerian Farmer's Almanac", after the flood season and after the Spring Equinox and the Akitu or New Year Festival, using the canals, farmers would flood their fields and then drain the water. Next they made oxen stomp the ground and kill weeds. They then dragged the fields with pickaxes. After drying, they plowed, harrowed, and raked the ground three times, and pulverized it with a mattock, before planting seed. Unfortunately the high evaporation rate resulted in a gradual increase in the salinity of the fields. By the Ur III period, farmers had switched from wheat to the more salt-tolerant barley as their principal crop.
When did farmers switch from barley to wheat?
What is the answer? (If it cannot be answered, return "unanswerable") | The given text does not provide information about when farmers switched from barley to wheat. Therefore, the answer is unanswerable. |
t0.94309 | Given the question: Title: Won't power more than 150 watts Product review: This unit is rated for 375 watts continuous power, but started giving me an overload alarm with just a 150 watt light bulb plugged in, with the engine running. With 170 watts, the inverter simply shut off. I tried several different appliances and tried the inverter in two cars with different batteries. In both cases, 120 watts worked fine, but anything higher caused problems. Also, the engine had to be running continuously for this to work. Otherwise the inverter turned off within two minutes. Maybe I just got a bad unit, but I was not impressed! Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
The answer is: | This review depicts the product in an unflattering light. |

While performing the task think step-by-step and justify your steps. | Please answer the following question: My Pa disappeared somewhere in the wilds of 1975, when I was just fourteen years old. He was the Ambassador to 1975, but back home in 1898, in New Jerusalem, Utah, they all thought he was Ambassador to France. When he disappeared, Mama and I came back through the triple-bolted door that led from our apt in 1975 to our horsebarn in 1898. We returned to the dusty streets of New Jerusalem, and I had to keep on reminding myself that I was supposed to have been in France, and 'polly-voo' for my chums, and tell whoppers about the Eiffel Tower and the fancy bread and the snails and frogs we'd eaten. I was born in New Jerusalem, and raised there till I was ten. Then, one summer's day, my Pa sat me on his knee and told me we'd be going away for a while, that he had a new job. 'But what about the store?' I said, scandalised. My Pa's wonderful store, the only General Store in town not run by the Saints, was my second home. I'd spent my whole life crawling and then walking on the dusty wooden floors, checking stock and unpacking crates with waybills from exotic places like Salt Lake City and even San Francisco. Pa looked uncomfortable. 'Mr Johnstone is buying it.' My mouth dropped. James H Johnstone was as dandified a city-slicker as you'd ever hope to meet. He'd blown into town on the weekly Zephyr Speedball, and skinny Tommy Benson had hauled his three huge steamer trunks to the cowboy hotel. He'd tipped Tommy two dollars, in Wells-Fargo notes, and later, in the empty lot behind the smithy, all the kids in New Jerusalem had gathered 'round Tommy to goggle at the small fortune in queer, never-seen bills. 'Pa, no!' I said, without thinking. I knew that if my chums ordered their fathers around like that, they'd get a whipping, but my Pa almost never whipped me. According to the above context, choose the correct option to answer the following question. Question: After he end of the story, who takes over the general store? Options: - Pa - not enough information - Tommy Benson - James H Johnstone
Answer: | James H Johnstone takes over the general store. This is mentioned in the passage when Pa tells the protagonist that Mr Johnstone is buying the store. |
t0.165900 | You are an AI assistant that follows instruction extremely well. Help as much as you can. | I have a new situation: Two competing countries used different energy sources to produce their electricity. Turkey used mostly fossil fuels, while Greece used nuclear power. But I can use this background: In the U.S., the majority of electricity is produced by burning coal or other fossil fuels. This causes air pollution that harms the health of living things. The air pollution also causes acid rain and contributes to global warming. In addition, fossil fuels are nonrenewable resources, so if we keep using them, they will eventually run out. The main advantage of nuclear energy is that it doesn’t release air pollution or cause the other environmental problems associated with the burning of fossil fuels. On the other other hand, radioactive elements are nonrenewable like fossil fuels and could eventually be used up. What is an answer for this question: Which country contributed less to global warming?
A: | Based on the given information, Greece contributed less to global warming as they used nuclear power to produce their electricity which does not release greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. Turkey, on the other hand, used mostly fossil fuels which release greenhouse gases and contribute to global warming. |

What might be the first step of the process?
The answer to this question is: | The first step of the process is "sediments become glued together". This is the initial stage of the process of sedimentary rock formation, where loose sediments such as sand, mud, and gravel are compacted and cemented together by minerals like silica, calcium carbonate, or iron oxide. This process is called lithification, and it transforms loose sediments into solid rock. Once the sediments are glued together, they become hard like cement, forming a sedimentary rock. |

Available options:
(A). Yes;
(B). No;
The answer is: | (B) No.
While it is true that starfish lack a centralized nervous system, the answer "nervous fish" is not entirely accurate. While some fish do have a centralized nervous system, not all fish do. For example, jellyfish and other cnidarians also lack a centralized nervous system. Therefore, a more accurate answer would be "some fish have a centralized nervous system, while others do not." |

You must be able to take good written notes from what your teachers say. Taking good notes has three stages. There are certain things you should do before class, during class, and after class. Here are the three stages of note-taking and what you should do during each class. 1. Get Ready to Take Notes Review your notes from the previous class before you come to class. This will help you remember what was covered and get you ready to understand the new information your teacher will provide. Complete all assigned readings before you come to class. Your teacher will expect that you have done this and will use and build upon this information. Bring all note-taking materials with you to class - several pens and pencils as well as your notebook. 2. Take Notes Keep your attention on what your teacher is saying. Paying attention to "signal statements". Examples of signal statements are "The most important point ..." and "Remember that ..," Be sure to include in your notes information that your teacher repeats or written on the blackboard. Write quickly so that you can include all the important information in your notes. Do this by writing abbreviated words such as med for medicine, using symbols such as % for percent, and writing short sentences. Place a "?" next to information about whose meaning you are not sure. Question: What will most probably be talked about next? - How to prepare for exams. - An easy way to take notes. - Note-taking after class. - The importance of taking notes.
Answer: | Based on the information provided in the article, the next topic that will most probably be talked about is note-taking during class. The article outlines the three stages of note-taking, and the second stage is taking notes during class. The article provides tips on how to take good notes during class, such as paying attention to signal statements, including repeated information, and writing quickly using abbreviations and symbols.

Think like you are answering to a five year old. | Multi-choice problem: Choose from the options at the end, and answer how do you do this: To mask the wooden piece for painting
Choices: [-] Using a masking tape, carefully tape over the areas to be protected from the paint.. [-] Using a masking tape, carefully tape over the areas to be covered with the paint.. | The correct answer is: Using a masking tape, carefully tape over the areas to be protected from the paint.
When we want to paint a wooden piece, we need to protect some parts of it from the paint. To do this, we use a special tape called masking tape. We put this tape on the parts of the wooden piece that we don't want to paint. This way, when we paint the wooden piece, the parts covered with the tape will not get painted.
The other option, "Using a masking tape, carefully tape over the areas to be covered with the paint," is not correct because we want to protect those areas from the paint, not cover them with paint. |

Provide a detailed answer so user don’t need to search outside to understand the answer. | The answer to the question: What is the nickname of the man who crashes into the bungalow while landing? is inside the article: In 1940, a replacement, Pilot Officer T. B. "Septic" Baird, is landing his Hawker Hurricane at "Pimpernel" Squadron's airfield. Just as he touches down, however, a straggler from an earlier mission taxis across his path. Septic's quick reactions allow him to "leapfrog" the other Hurricane, averting a costly disaster. His action, however, causes him to crash his replacement aircraft into the bungalow of Squadron Leader Barry Clinton at the end of the runway. This earns Septic the wrath of his new squadron leader, Bill Ponsford, because he damaged his fighter aircraft. The crash also injures the ligaments in Septic's neck, which he is able to self-diagnose, as he had been a medical student before the war. The next morning, Septic is told by Group Captain "Tiger" Small that he will not be able to fly until his neck is healed, so he will instead serve in the operations room for the time being. Several days later, with the risk of a bombing attack on the airfield, and all of Pimpernel Squadron's Hurricanes scrambled, Tiger orders all aircraft to take off and fly out of harm's way until the raid is over. With Tiger quickly assembling all available pilots and finding aircraft to fly, Septic wins a foot race with Small to claim the last spare Hurricane for himself. He then proceeds to shoot down a Messerschmitt Bf 110 from the attacking force. His delight is short lived however when he is admonished by Small and Sqn Ldr Peter Moon for leaving his radio set to transmit, preventing the returning Hurricanes from being diverted to an undamaged airfield. A crestfallen Septic returns to his ground duties., can you guess it ?
Answer: | The nickname of the man who crashes into the bungalow while landing is "Septic" Baird. |

Solve -232*p - 385 = 2399 for p. | To solve this math problem, we need to find the value of p.
First, let's get rid of the number on the right side of the equation. We can do this by adding 385 to both sides of the equation.
So, -232*p - 385 + 385 = 2399 + 385.
This simplifies to -232*p = 2784.
Now, we want to get p by itself on one side of the equation. To do this, we need to get rid of the -232 that is multiplied by p.
We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by -232.
So, -232*p / -232 = 2784 / -232.
This simplifies to p = -12.
Therefore, the value of p that solves the equation is -12. |

t0.1453804 | Q:I read this background article the other day: Soil formation, or pedogenesis, is the combined effect of physical, chemical, biological and anthropogenic processes working on soil parent material. Soil is said to be formed when organic matter has accumulated and colloids are washed downward, leaving deposits of clay, humus, iron oxide, carbonate, and gypsum, producing a distinct layer called the B horizon. This is a somewhat arbitrary definition as mixtures of sand, silt, clay and humus will support biological and agricultural activity before that time. These constituents are moved from one level to another by water and animal activity. As a result, layers (horizons) form in the soil profile. The alteration and movement of materials within a soil causes the formation of distinctive soil horizons. However, more recent definitions of soil embrace soils without any organic matter, such as those regoliths that formed on Mars and analogous conditions in planet Earth deserts.An example of the development of a soil would begin with the weathering of lava flow bedrock, which would produce the purely mineral-based parent material from which the soil texture forms. Soil development would proceed most rapidly from bare rock of recent flows in a warm climate, under heavy and frequent rainfall. Under such conditions, plants (in a first stage nitrogen-fixing lichens and cyanobacteria then epilithic higher plants) become established very quickly on basaltic lava, even though there is very little organic material. The plants are supported by the porous rock as it is filled with nutrient-bearing water that carries minerals dissolved from the rocks. Crevasses and pockets, local topography of the rocks, would hold fine materials and harbour plant roots. The developing plant roots are associated with mineral-weathering mycorrhizal fungi that assist in breaking up the porous lava, and by these means organic matter and a finer mineral soil accumulate with time. Such initial stages of soil development have been described on volcanoes, inselbergs, and glacial moraines. I am facing a new situation today: Ben and Jerry studied agricultural sciences. Ben was specialized in pedology and pedogenesis, while Jerry specialized in entomology and phytopathology. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which person learned more about soil formation?
A: | Ben learned more about soil formation as he specialized in pedology and pedogenesis, which specifically deals with the processes and factors involved in the formation of soil. Jerry's specialization in entomology and phytopathology may involve some knowledge of soil and its properties, but it is not as focused on soil formation as Ben's specialization. |

What is the solution? | First, we need to simplify the left-hand side of the equation by adding the three numbers together.
-664 + 642 + 1726 = 1704
So now we have the equation:
1704 = 213*l
To solve for l, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides by 213:
1704/213 = l
Simplifying the left-hand side:
8 = l

She begins to piece together a narrative about her mother's sexuality and sexual exploitation in a space ordered by gender and class difference, and is re-awakened to her persistent questioning about her father's identity.[4][5] As Alia negotiates her past, she also deals with her current relationship to her lover, Lotfi, who has asked her to have what seems to be yet another abortion.[4] [1] Her development throughout the film contrasts her awakening to a past of sexual and social servitude which many of the female servants experienced in the palace against her own contested independence fraught with pain, conflict and uncertainty.[1]

t0.1573422 | Article: Learning about the environment is very important. There are many good books that will help you learn. To get started, ask your teacher or your friends for some advice. You can also look at some good websites with information about the environment and climate change. Climate change may be a big problem, but there are many little things we can do to make a difference. Driving a car or using electricity is not wrong. We just have to be smart about it. Some people use less energy by sharing a car. For example, four people can ride together in one car instead of driving four cars to work. Whenever we use electricity, we put greenhouse gases into the air. By turning off the lights, the television, and the computer when they aren't needed, you can help a lot. Don't buy products that use too much energy. Some products, like certain cars, are made specially to save energy. These cars can travel longer on less gasoline . They don't pollute as much, either. Products like computers, TVs and VCRs with the ENERGY STAR label are made to save energy. Buying products with these labels will help protect the environment. Buy recyclable products instead of non-recyclable ones. Recyclable products are usually made out of things that have already been used. It usually takes less energy to make recyclable products than to make new ones. So when you go shopping, look for the recycle mark on the package. The less energy we use, the better. Question: From the passage, we can learn that _ . Yes or no, is the answer "turning off the electricity when it isn't needed can do good to the environment"?
Answer: | Yes. |

Movie title: Das Boot Movie plot: The story is told from the viewpoint of Lt. Werner (Herbert Grönemeyer), who has been assigned as a war correspondent on the German submarine U-96 in October 1941. He meets its captain (Jürgen Prochnow), chief engineer (Klaus Wennemann), and the crew in a raucous French bordello. Thomsen (Otto Sander), another captain, gives a crude drunken speech to celebrate his Ritterkreuz award, in which he openly mocks not only Winston Churchill but implicitly Adolf Hitler as well. The next morning, they sail out of the harbour of La Rochelle to a cheering crowd and playing band. Werner is given a tour of the boat. As time passes, he observes ideological differences between the new crew members and the hardened veterans, particularly the captain, who is embittered and cynical about the war. The new men, including Werner, are often mocked by the rest of the crew, who share a tight bond. After days of boredom, the crew is excited by another U-boat's spotting of an enemy convoy, but they soon locate a British destroyer, and are bombarded with depth charges. They narrowly escape with only light damage. The next three weeks are spent enduring a relentless storm. Morale drops after a series of misfortunes, but the crew is cheered temporarily by a chance encounter with Thomsen's boat. Shortly after the storm ends, the boat encounters a British convoy and quickly launches four torpedoes, sinking two ships. They are spotted by a destroyer and have to dive below the submarine's rated limit. During the ensuing depth-charge attack, the chief mechanic, Johann, panics and has to be restrained. The boat sustains heavy damage, but is eventually able to safely surface in darkness. An enemy tanker remains afloat and on fire, so they torpedo the ship, only to realize that there are still sailors aboard; they watch in horror as the sailors, some on fire, leap overboard and swim towards them. Following orders not to take prisoners, the captain gives the command to back the ship away. The worn-out U-boat crew looks forward to returning...

t0.1869570 | You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. | Question: Suggest a movie title for the following movie plot: Cody Jarrett (James Cagney) is the ruthless, deranged leader of a criminal gang. Although married to Verna (Virginia Mayo), Jarrett is overly attached to his equally crooked and determined mother, 'Ma' Jarrett (Margaret Wycherly), who is his only real confidant. When he has one of his splitting headaches she consoles him, sits him on her lap and gives him a drink with the toast "Top of the world". Jarrett's father died in an institution. He himself is described as someone who when "he was a kid, he used to fake headaches to get his mother's attention away from the rest of the family. It worked. As he grew up, the fancied headaches became real, until now they tear him to pieces."Jarrett and his gang carry out a major robbery involving the hijacking of a train and the deaths of several people, including four members of the train crew and one of his own accomplices, Zuckie (Ford Rainey). With the help of informants, the police soon close in and Jarrett shoots and injures US Treasury investigator Philip Evans (John Archer). He escapes to Illinois and confesses to a lesser crime which was committed by an associate. It was done at a time to coincide with the train robbery and thus provides Jarrett with a perfect alibi. He is sentenced to one to three years of jail time.Evans is not fooled however. He allows Jarrett's conviction to go through but then sends an undercover agent into the penitentiary in order to get information from Jarrett as part of a sting operation. The agent is Hank Fallon (Edmond O'Brien), who goes by the name "Vic Pardo." His main task is to find the "Trader", a fence who launders stolen US Dollars on the European black market on Jarrett's behalf.'Big Ed' Somers (Steve Cochran), Jarrett's ambitious right-hand man, has designs on both Jarrett's gang and his treacherous wife Verna. He orders another convict, Roy Parker (Paul Guilfoyle), to kill him. In the prison workplace, Parker arranges to drop a heavy piece of machinery on Jarrett, but Fallon/Pardo pushes him out of the way and saves his...
Answer: | The suggested movie title for the given plot could be "Top of the World". This title is fitting as it is the phrase that Cody Jarrett's mother uses to console him during his splitting headaches, and it also represents his desire to be at the top of the criminal world. The phrase is also used ironically as Jarrett's downfall is ultimately caused by his own actions and the betrayal of those closest to him.
The movie would be a crime drama that explores the complex relationships between Cody Jarrett, his mother, and his criminal associates. It would delve into the psychological aspects of Jarrett's character, including his attachment to his mother and his struggles with mental illness. The movie would also highlight the corrupt nature of the criminal underworld and the lengths that people will go to in order to gain power and wealth.
The plot would follow Jarrett and his gang as they carry out a major robbery and evade the police. However, their luck eventually runs out and Jarrett is sentenced to jail time. The introduction of the undercover agent, Hank Fallon, adds a new layer of tension to the story as he attempts to gather information on Jarrett and his criminal activities. The conflict between Jarrett and his ambitious right-hand man, Big Ed Somers, also adds to the drama and suspense of the movie.
Overall, "Top of the World" would be a gripping crime drama that explores the dark side of human nature and the consequences of greed and corruption. The title would serve as a reminder that even those who seem to have it all can come crashing down in an instant. |

Help as much as you can. | I have a test where I am given the following article, what is an answer for the question: What is the first name of the person who said he never heard a tone like Beiderbecke's before or since? ? Like Green, who made particular mention of Beiderbecke's "amount of teaching," the jazz historian Ted Gioia also has emphasized Beiderbecke's lack of formal instruction, suggesting that it caused him to adopt "an unusual, dry embouchure" and "unconventional fingerings," which he retained for the rest of his life. Gioia points to "a characteristic streak of obstinacy" in Beiderbecke that provokes "this chronic disregard of the tried-and-true." He argues that this stubbornness was behind Beiderbecke's decision not to switch from cornet to trumpet when many other musicians, including Armstrong, did so. In addition, Gioia highlights Beiderbecke's precise timing, relaxed delivery, and pure tone, which contrasted with "the dirty, rough-edged sound" of King Oliver and his protégé Armstrong, whose playing was often more energetic and whose style held more sway early in the 1920s than Beiderbecke's. Beiderbecke's playing - both as a cornetist and a pianist - had a profound effect on a number of his contemporaries. Eddie Condon, for instance, described Beiderbecke's cornet playing as "like a girl saying yes" and also wrote of being amazed by Beiderbecke's piano playing: "All my life I had been listening to music […] But I had never heard anything remotely like what Beiderbecke played. For the first time I realized music isn't all the same, it had become an entirely new set of sounds" "I tried to explain Bix to the gang," Hoagy Carmichael wrote, but "[i]t was no good, like the telling of a vivid, personal dream […] the emotion couldn't be transmitted."Mezz Mezzrow described Beiderbecke's tone as being "pickled in alcohol […] I have never heard a tone like he got before or since. He played mostly open horn, every note full, big, rich and round, standing out like a pearl, loud but never irritating or jangling, with a powerful drive that few white musicians had in those days."Some critics have highlighted "Jazz Me Blues", recorded with the Wolverines on February 18, 1924, as being particularly important to understanding...

In July 1985, Dallas electrician and rodeo cowboy Ron Woodroof is diagnosed with AIDS and given 30 days to live. He initially refuses to accept the diagnosis but remembers having unprotected sex with a woman who was an intravenous drug user a couple years prior. He is soon ostracized by family and friends who mistakenly believe he contracted AIDS from homosexual relations. He gets fired from his job, and is eventually evicted from his home. At the hospital, he is tended to by Dr. Eve Saks, who tells him that they are testing a drug called zidovudine, an antiretroviral drug which is thought to prolong the life of AIDS patients—and is the only drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration for testing on humans. Saks informs him that in the clinical trials, half the patients receive the drug and the other half a placebo, as this is the only way they can determine if the drug is working.

Tripoli, Libya (CNN) -- Libyan prosecutors have gathered "great evidence" against the son of former dictator Moammar Gadhafi, International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said Thursday, reopening the controversial question of where Saif al-Islam Gadhafi will be tried. Both the International Criminal Court and Libya's new authorities want to put him on trial, and the two sides have been battling over it since his capture in November. The court demanded this month that Libya hand him over immediately to face accusations of crimes against humanity, but Libya appealed the decision. Libyan interim Prime Minister Abdurrahim El-Keib told CNN in an exclusive interview that Gadhafi could "absolutely" get a fair trial in Libya and that he should face justice there.

- Saif al-Islam Gadhafi rejected the defense attorneys' suggestion that the younger Gadhafi was suffering ill treatment in captivity.

Acrylic paints are water-soluble, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted with water, or modified with acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media. Acrylic paint is typically used for crafting, or in art classes in schools because it does not require any chemicals, and rinses away with just water. It also is less likely to leave a stain on clothes than oil paint.
Question: is oil based paint the same as acrylic? | No, oil-based paint is not the same as acrylic paint. While both types of paint are commonly used in the art world, they have distinct differences in their composition, properties, and application.
Oil-based paint, as the name suggests, is made by suspending pigments in an oil medium, typically linseed oil. This type of paint has been used for centuries and is known for its slow drying time, which allows artists to work with the paint for extended periods. The slow drying time also enables artists to blend colors and create smooth transitions on the canvas. Oil-based paint has a rich, glossy finish and can create vibrant, deep colors. However, it requires the use of solvents such as turpentine or mineral spirits for thinning, cleaning brushes, and for general cleanup.
On the other hand, acrylic paint is made by suspending pigments in an acrylic polymer emulsion. It is a water-based paint that dries quickly, usually within minutes to hours, depending on the thickness of the paint layer. This fast drying time allows artists to work more efficiently and build up layers of paint more rapidly. Acrylic paint is water-soluble when wet, but once dry, it becomes water-resistant and forms a durable, flexible film. It can be diluted with water or modified with various acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes to achieve different effects and textures. Acrylic paint can resemble watercolor or oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics.
In terms of application, oil-based paint is often used on canvas, wood, or other surfaces that can withstand its slow drying time and require a more traditional approach. It is commonly used by professional artists who prefer the versatility and richness of oil paint. However, oil-based paint requires proper ventilation due to the use of solvents and has a longer drying time, which can be a disadvantage for artists who prefer a quicker process.
Acrylic paint, on the other hand, is widely used in various art forms, including crafting, art classes in schools, and even professional artwork. It is popular for its ease of use, versatility, and quick drying time. Acrylic paint can be applied to a wide range of surfaces, including canvas, paper, wood, metal, and more. It is also known for its durability, as it does not crack or yellow over time like some oil-based paints. Additionally, acrylic paint is non-toxic and can be easily cleaned up with just water, making it a safer and more convenient option, especially for beginners or artists working in shared spaces.
In summary, while both oil-based paint and acrylic paint are used in the art world, they have distinct differences in their composition, properties, and application. Oil-based paint has a slow drying time, requires solvents for thinning and cleanup, and is known for its rich colors and glossy finish. Acrylic paint, on the other hand, dries quickly, is water-soluble when wet, becomes water-resistant when dry, and offers versatility, durability, and ease of use. The choice between the two depends on the artist's preferences, desired effects, and the specific requirements of the artwork or project. |

t0.449423 | Answer the following question: WHITE HOUSE — White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders, who was asked to leave a Virginia restaurant days ago, told reporters on Monday that "calls for harassment and a push for any Trump supporter to avoid the public is unacceptable." She was referring to comments from Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who previously has called for President Donald Trump's impeachment. Waters told supporters, "If you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them, and you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere." The most prominent Democrat in the House of Representatives, however, disagreed with Walters. "Trump's daily lack of civility has provoked responses that are predictable but unacceptable," Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi said on Twitter on Monday. "As we go forward, we must conduct elections in a way that achieves unity from sea to shining sea." Pelosi's tweet included a link to a CNN story about Waters encouraging harassment of Trump administration officials. Trump also responded to Water's remarks, saying on Twitter that the congresswoman — whom he referred to as an "extraordinarily low IQ person" — had called for his supporters to be harassed. In the social media message, the president concluded, "Be careful what you wish for Max!" Last week, protesters yelled at Department of Homeland Security chief Kirstjen Nielsen at an upscale Mexican restaurant near the White House. Earlier, Nielsen publicly defended the policy of separating children from parents who were apprehended for illegally entering the U.S., a policy the president has since reversed. Trump policy adviser Stephen Miller, also an immigration hard-liner, was called a "fascist" while dining at a Mexican cantina in a neighborhood in the District of Columbia. The incident involving Sanders took place Friday night at the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, 300 kilometers south of the U.S. capital. "I explained that the restaurant has certain...

You will need white vinegar, water, an empty spray bottle, and newspaper. It’s also a good idea to ventilate the area so the smell of vinegar does not become overwhelming. Distilled water works best, as it contains the lowest amounts of contaminants and minerals. While steel wool removes dirt and grime from your windows, the vinegar removes grease and oils. Using both will leave you with sparkling, streak-free windows. Fill a spray bottle with this solution. Make sure the solution is mixed thoroughly. If you don’t like the smell of vinegar, you could add a few drops of essential oil to your solution to mask the smell. If you don’t have vinegar on hand, you can use lemon juice in its place. Don’t dilute it, just use straight lemon juice in place of the vinegar and follow the same steps. Evenly coat the window, but don’t use too much. You don’t want a dripping, sloppy mess. Do this systematically: start at the top left corner and work your way to the right, then move down and work from the left to right again. Newspaper cleans glass better than paper towels, which leave streaky marks. You may want to wear gloves, as the newsprint could stain your hands. If you missed any areas, scrub them with a bit of the damp newspaper. Don’t spray the solution directly onto the window, as you would likely have to clean the entire window again. If you still have streaks on your windows, mix 2 cups (470 mL) of water, 1⁄4 cup (59 mL) of vinegar and 1⁄2 teaspoon (2.5 mL) of dish soap in a spray bottle. Spray the window and wipe it clean. This will help you catch any bits of dust or dirt left behind, and ensure your entire window area is clean.

Terry: Yes. Frank: It must be an exciting trip. Terry: Well, I've really seen lots of things. I saw the most spectacular view when I was crossing a bridge to Manhattan at dusk, and the skyscrapers were lit up producing a classic nighttime view of Manhattan. Frank: That's really beautiful. Terry: But that's not the whole picture. Some of the streets in New York are very rough. I saw large piles of garbage cans at the roadside, and graffiti all over garage doors and store shutters. Frank: I can't believe it. Terry: The garbage are tidily bagged and boxed, though. Frank: Did you stay in a hotel? Terry: Yes. The hotel we stayed at turned out to be fairly decent, though the room was small, with a tiny bathroom that was only about 3 feet larger than the bed. As I was inexperienced with tourist-area hotels, I was startled, I mean, the room was $129 a night. But at least the room was clean and the bed reasonably comfortable. Frank: What's your general impression of New York? Terry: Well, restaurants pack their tiny tables very tightly; grocery stores and bookstores have aisles that are narrow; the sidewalks are cluttered with newsstands, vendors and their carts, and places that aren't restrictively small, such as the lawns around the Natural History Museum, are full of people, so they're no escape. Question: How much does the hotel room cost Terry a night? - $130. - $129. - $128.
Answer: | According to the conversation, Terry mentions that the hotel room they stayed in was priced at $129 a night. This was a bit surprising for Terry as they were not familiar with the prices of tourist-area hotels. Despite the small size of the room and bathroom, Terry found it to be clean and the bed reasonably comfortable. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is $129. |

With a population of nearly 1 million, the city has developed abruptly since the 21st century, recording the highest population growth of any city in the country. Yongin is home to Everland and Caribbean Bay, South Korea's most popular amusement and water parks. The city is also home to the Korean Folk Village, the largest of its kind. - In commerce, a hypermarket is a superstore combining a supermarket and a department store. The result is an expansive retail facility carrying a wide range of products under one roof, including full groceries lines and general merchandise. In theory, hypermarkets allow customers to satisfy all their routine shopping needs in one trip. The term "hypermarket" was coined in 1968 by French trade expert Jacques Pictet. - Yatap Station is a station on the Bundang Line between Moran and Imae . Around the station , there are two big shopping malls : Kim 's Club and Homever . Also , Yatap CGV Multiplex and Seongnam Bus Terminal are near the station . - Seoul () officially the Seoul Special City is the capital and largest metropolis of the Republic of Korea (commonly known as South Korea), forming the heart of the Seoul Capital Area, which includes the surrounding Incheon metropolis and Gyeonggi province, the world's 16th largest city. It is home to over half of all South Koreans along with 678,102 international residents. - The Bundang Line is a subway line in the Seoul Capital Area operated by Korail. The name 'Bundang Line' refers to the fact that the line was originally constructed for the new planned town of Bundang. The line starts in central eastern Seoul at Wangsimni, crossing Gangnam District and connecting the cities of Seongnam and Yongin, and terminates at Suwon Station. - Homever () was a brand name of a hypermarket of E.Land Retail Limited, which is part of the E.Land Group. - Suwon (Hangul: , Hanja: ) is the capital and largest metropolis of Gyeonggi-do, South Korea's most populous province which surrounds Seoul, the national capital. Suwon lies about south of Seoul. It is traditionally known as "The City of Filial Piety". With a population close to 1.2 million, it is larger than Ulsan, although it is not governed as a metropolitan city. - The Gangnam District is one of the 25 "gu" (local government districts) which make up the city of Seoul, South Korea. Gangnam literally means "South of the (Han) River". - Satellite City was a Welsh sitcom which started out originally as a radio show on BBC Radio Wales in 1994 and then evolved into a TV version made by BBC Wales and was first broadcast in 1996. - Gyeonggi-do (Hangul: ) is the most populous province in South Korea. Its name, "Gyeonggi" means "the area surrounding capital". Thus "Gyeonggi-do" can be translated as "province surrounding Seoul". The provincial capital is Suwon. SeoulSouth Korea's largest city and national capitalis in the heart of the province but has been separately administered as a provincial-level "special city" since 1946. IncheonSouth Korea's third largest cityis on the coast of the province and has been similarly administered as a provincial-level "metropolitan city" since 1981. The three jurisdictions collectively cover 11,730 km, with a combined population of 25.6 millionamounting to over half of the entire population of South Korea. - Seongnam is the second largest city in South Korea's Gyeonggi Province after Suwon and the 10th largest city in the country. Its population is approximately one million. Seongnam is a satellite city of Seoul. It is largely a residential city located immediately southeast of Seoul and belongs to the Seoul National Capital Area. - Suwon Station is a railway station in the city of Suwon, South Korea. The station was completely redeveloped in 2002 and 2003, and is now integrated with the Aekyung Shopping Mall(AK PLAZA). This station serves the national Gyeongbu Line and Line 1 of the Seoul subway, which runs services from Soyosan Station to the north to Sinchang to the south. Given the information above, choose from the list below the object entity that exhibits the relation 'inception' with the subject 'yatap station'. Choices: - 1 - 1946 - 1968 - 1981 - 1994 - 2 - 2002 - 2003 - 25 - 678
The answer is: | The entity that exhibits the relation 'inception' with the subject 'Yatap Station' is "2002". This is because the information states that Suwon Station was completely redeveloped in 2002 and 2003, and is now integrated with the Aekyung Shopping Mall (AK PLAZA). Since Yatap Station is on the Bundang Line between Moran and Imae, and Suwon Station is the terminus of the Bundang Line, it can be inferred that Yatap Station was also built or opened around the same time as the redevelopment of Suwon Station in 2002. Therefore, the correct answer is "2002". |

Product endorsed by Dr. Oz settles with FTC for $3.5 million
Dr. Mehmet Oz, known to television viewers simply as Dr. Oz, once touted a natural extract to viewers as helpful in losing weight.
On Monday, the company behind the miracle ingredient agreed to pay $3.5 million to settle accusations by the Federal Trade Commission that it used phony science to back up its claims.
Applied Food Services had pushed green coffee extract in its advertising as a diet aid. But federal regulators said there was no scientific basis for its marketing.
“Applied Food Sciences knew or should have known that this botched study didn’t prove anything,” said Jessica Rich, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection, in a statement. “In publicizing the results, it helped fuel the green coffee phenomenon.”
In June, a group of U.S. lawmakers criticized Dr. Oz for his endorsement of the product, calling it careless and disappointing. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., the chairwoman of the subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, and Insurance, lashed out at a hearing, saying: “I don’t get why you need to say this stuff when you know it’s not true. When you have this amazing megaphone, and this amazing ability to community, why would you cheapen your show by saying things like that?”
Oz, a graduate of Harvard University and University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Business School, said at the time that he’d use a more critical lens before hawking products on his show. “In addition to exercising an abundance of caution in discussing promising research and products in the future, I look forward to working with all those present today in finding a way to deal with the problems of weight loss scams,” said Oz in a statement.
But Oz also said his motives were sincere in initially touting green coffee extract.
“My job is to be a cheerleader for the audience, when they don’t think they have hope,” he told lawmakers, according to The Hill.

Answer: | Determining which country had a lower mortality rate between Italy and Spain, despite having similar natural resources but different populations, requires a more in-depth analysis of various factors that could affect mortality rates in both countries.
Firstly, it is important to note that mortality rates are affected by various factors such as access to healthcare, lifestyle choices, environmental factors, and socio-economic status. Therefore, it is necessary to examine these factors in both countries to determine which country had a lower mortality rate.
In terms of access to healthcare, both Italy and Spain have universal healthcare systems that provide access to medical care for all citizens. However, the quality of healthcare services and the availability of medical facilities may differ between the two countries. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Spain has a higher number of hospital beds per capita than Italy, which could indicate that Spain has better access to healthcare services. Therefore, it is possible that Spain had a lower mortality rate due to better access to healthcare services.
Lifestyle choices can also affect mortality rates. For instance, smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor diet can increase the risk of developing chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, which can lead to higher mortality rates. According to the World Health Organization, Spain has a lower prevalence of smoking and alcohol consumption than Italy, which could indicate that Spain has a healthier population. Therefore, it is possible that Spain had a lower mortality rate due to healthier lifestyle choices.
Environmental factors such as air pollution, water quality, and climate can also affect mortality rates. According to the Environmental Performance Index, Italy has a higher air pollution index than Spain, which could indicate that Italy has a higher risk of respiratory diseases. Therefore, it is possible that Italy had a higher mortality rate due to environmental factors.
Finally, socio-economic status can also affect mortality rates. According to the World Bank, Spain has a higher GDP per capita than Italy, which could indicate that Spain has a higher standard of living. Therefore, it is possible that Spain had a lower mortality rate due to better socio-economic conditions.
In conclusion, determining which country had a lower mortality rate between Italy and Spain requires a more in-depth analysis of various factors that could affect mortality rates. While both countries have similar natural resources, differences in access to healthcare, lifestyle choices, environmental factors, and socio-economic status could have contributed to differences in mortality rates. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which country had a lower mortality rate without further analysis. |

t0.1506373 | I read this background article the other day: A major use for petroleum products is fuel for cars, trucks, airplanes, trains, and other vehicles. The chemical used are usually a mixture of compounds containing several carbon atoms in a chain. When the material is ignited, a massive amount of gas is created almost instantaneously. This increase in volume will move the pistons in an internal combustion engine to provide power. A jet plane works on a similar principle. Air comes into the front of the engine and mixes with the jet fuel. This mixture is ignited and the gases formed create a lot of pressure to push the plane forward. The idea can be seen even more clearly in the case of a rocket launch. The ignition of the fuel (either solid-state or liquid) creates gases produced under great pressure that pushes the rocket up. I am facing a new situation today: Two engineering students learned about petroleum products, While Dan learned more about plastics, Jim learned about fuels. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which student learned less about fuels for trucks?
A: | Jim learned about fuels, so he did not learn less about fuels for trucks. Therefore, the answer is Dan, who learned more about plastics and presumably less about fuels for trucks. |

And the answer is... | To solve the equation 1316 + 544 = -270*k + 177*k for k, we need to simplify the left-hand side of the equation first.
1316 + 544 = 1860
Now we can rewrite the equation as:
1860 = -93*k
To solve for k, we need to isolate k on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides by -93:
1860 / -93 = k
Simplifying the left-hand side:
-20 = k
Therefore, the solution to the equation 1316 + 544 = -270*k + 177*k is k = -20. |

The film opens with a trio of explorers in Africa who are hiding in a cave. One of the explorers, a pregnant woman, is bitten by a vampire bat. The film then cuts forward in time to a small European village where a series of mysterious murders are taking place. The villagers readily assemble in mob form, with torches, at the house of Professor Kristan after every murder. The villagers suspect that a giant bat is to blame for the murders. Kristan gives the villagers advice on staying safe, and assures them a scientific explanation exists. However, in subsequent scenes, Kristan himself is revealed to be the murderer. He is seized by attacks (triggered by darkness) which transform him into a trance-like state of murderousness. After he commits a murder, he awakens from the trance with no memory of the deed, believing himself merely to have fainted. Kristan's obliviousness is further enabled by the intervention of his loyal hunchback Zan, the only person aware of Kristan's condition. Zan follows Kristan when he is in his trances, ensuring the professor is not discovered. An old friend of Kristan's, Dr. Bizet, arrives to visit, and soon suspects what is happening. Bizet discloses to Kristan that his mother was bitten by a vampire bat, and that traits of vampirism have likely been passed down to him per Lamarckism. (The audience now understands the pregnant explorer in the opening flashback to have been Kristan's mother.) After Kristan's fiance is attacked by an entranced Kristan, the mob of villagers assumes Zan is culpable and chases him to the edge of a cliff inside a cave. Kristan arrives and confesses to the murders, despite Zan's protestations (aimed at saving the professor) that he, the hunchback, is in fact the murderer. As the mob watches, Kristan throws himself over the edge of the cliff and Zan follows.
The answer to this question is: | The professor, Kristan, is assumed to have attacked his fiance. |

He is haunted especially by an incident in a small village in the occupied Netherlands during World War II, where he served as parish priest: near the end of the war, a sadistic Nazi SS commander, in retaliation for the murder of a German trooper, forces Merrin to participate in arbitrary executions in order to save a full village from slaughter. After World War II, Merrin is an archaeologist in Cairo, when he is approached by a collector of antiquities named Semelier who asks him to come to a British excavation in a valley called Derati the Turkana region of Kenya. This dig is excavating a Christian Byzantine church built circa 500 A.D. â long before Christianity had reached that region of Africa. Semelier asks Merrin to recover an ancient relic of a demon, thought to be in the church, before the British can find it. The relic is the small head of the Pazuzu idol. Merrin agrees and travels to the dig site. He is joined by Father Francis, a Vatican... My question: What did Father Lankester Merrin serve as in World War II?

I have this adult friend for whom the notion that her parents have sex makes her terribly uneasy. She came to mind when I reflected on the audience's reaction to "The Mother."
People gasped when May (Anne Reid) writhed passionately in bed with her younger hunk lover, Darren (Daniel Craig) or later saw sexually explicit drawings by May. I doubt the audience was aghast at the nudity or the drawings' content as much as feeling uneasy at seeing a woman in her 60s rapturously enjoying sex.
Screenwriter Hanif Kureishi ("My Beautiful Laundrette," "My Son the Fanatic") again proves why he's among the most trenchant storytellers on either side of the Atlantic. His story's not easy to take. This searing family drama isn't a film you can claim you enjoyed watching because it's raw, complex, and often makes us very uncomfortable. Nevertheless, it's powerfully good stuff.
Kureishi and Roger Michell (who directed "Notting Hill," of all things) craft an unsentimental, wrenching and superbly-acted portrait of an older woman who realizes, after all these years, she can and should still enjoy all of life's pleasures. In a wonderfully epiphanous moment, when her son, Bobby, asks her not to be difficult, May shoots back, "Why not?"
Why not, indeed.
Anne Reid deserves an Oscar nomination for her turn as May. It's subtle, restrained, powerful and sad, often all at the same time. Watch Reid when May observes Darren and Paula (Cathryn Bradshaw) in a seemingly passionate clutch in a pub. Or, when she begs Paula to open the front door after a disastrous date. Reid's eyes and face reveal all of May's anguish and despair. In the film's most devastating moment, May drops to her knees before Darren, willing to do anything for him, only asking him to be kind. This is a tremendously gutsy performance by a remarkable actress.
I enjoyed Michell's use of natural sound, especially when May and Toots first arrive at Bobby's place. It perfectly illustrated the cacophony around May and Toots, the flippant manner in which their own family welcomes them.
This film, at times, reminded me of the honesty and rawness of Mike Leigh's work, except "The Mother" hangs on to a slight sense of optimism to keep afloat.
My one quibble: Michell's decision to give May and Darren's first love scene an almost cheesy sensibility. The lovers remain out of focus while, in the foreground, a white curtain flutters gently in the breeze. And the only sound is of May in the throes of passion.
The problem with Michell's approach is that both Reid and Craig, who completely envelops the role of Darren, plough their way so fearlessly into these roles that it's unfair to hide their characters' almost primitive energy from the audience. Especially since Michell has no qualms about making later sex scenes visceral.
This film doesn't have immensely likable characters. We sympathize with May, but she, too, causes her daughter's suffering. But I doubt Kureishi intended to people his story with likable folk. His point, I believe, was to unmask a family that's already cracking when something emotionally cataclysmic happens. It's unflinching in its candor and ultimately unforgettable.

Some 11,800 British Empire soldiers, most of them Indians, became prisoners after the Siege of Kut in Mesopotamia in April 1916; 4,250 died in captivity. Although many were in a poor condition when captured, Ottoman officers forced them to march 1,100 kilometres to Anatolia. A survivor said: "We were driven along like beasts; to drop out was to die." The survivors were then forced to build a railway through the Taurus Mountains. In Russia, when the prisoners from the Czech Legion of the Austro-Hungarian army were released in 1917, they re-armed themselves and briefly became a military and diplomatic force during the Russian Civil War. While the Allied prisoners of the Central Powers were quickly sent home at the end of active hostilities, the same treatment was not granted to Central Power prisoners of the Allies and Russia, many of whom served as forced labour, e.g., in France until 1920. They were released only after many approaches by the Red Cross to the Allied Supreme Council. German prisoners were still being held in Russia as late as 1924.

In truth, nothing equals the lightness, the sweetness with which the composer preludes on the piano; moreover nothing may be compared to his works full of originality, distinction and grace." Chopin refused to conform to a standard method of playing and believed that there was no set technique for playing well. His style was based extensively on his use of very independent finger technique. In his Projet de méthode he wrote: "Everything is a matter of knowing good fingering ... we need no less to use the rest of the hand, the wrist, the forearm and the upper arm." He further stated: "One needs only to study a certain position of the hand in relation to the keys to obtain with ease the most beautiful quality of sound, to know how to play short notes and long notes, and [to attain] unlimited dexterity." The consequences of this approach to technique in Chopin's music include the frequent use of the entire range of the keyboard, passages in double octaves and other chord groupings, swiftly repeated notes, the use of grace notes, and the use of contrasting rhythms (four against three, for example) between the hands.". Can you tell me what it is?

t0.711140 | Please answer the following question: Generate a question that has the following answer: Prince Asoka Maurya for the following movie plot: The movie begins with an opening crawl, giving the viewer some context. Asoka is a child when his grandfather, Chandragupta Maurya, decides to renounce the throne to become a Jainist monk. Before his departure, Asoka's grandfather finds out that Asoka stole his sword and he confronts him. Chandragupta tells Asoka that his sword is cursed to taste blood whenever it is drawn, and he throws it into a creek. After he leaves, Asoka finds the sword and keeps it. The throne goes to Asoka's father, Bindusara, and the movie skips to Asokas adulthood. Bindusara is about to renounce the throne to his successor.

When the movie picks up, Asoka is leading his troops in battle against the Takshila army, who have an advantage in numbers. Asoka prevails and kills the leader of the Takshilas. He comes home alive and unharmed, which angers Susima. Susima had ordered General Shivrath to make Asoka conquer Takshila with half an army, expecting Asoka to die in the struggle.

On September 19, 1985, Zappa testified before the United States Senate Commerce, Technology, and Transportation committee, attacking the Parents Music Resource Center or PMRC, a music organization co-founded by Tipper Gore, wife of then-senator Al Gore. The PMRC consisted of many wives of politicians, including the wives of five members of the committee, and was founded to address the issue of song lyrics with sexual or satanic content. During Zappa's testimony, he stated that there was a clear conflict of interest between the PMRC due to the relations of its founders to the politicians who were then trying to pass what he referred to as the "Blank Tape Tax." Kandy Stroud, a spokeswoman for the PMRC, announced that Senator Gore (who co-founded the committee) was a co-sponsor of that legislation. Zappa suggested that record labels were trying to get the bill passed quickly through committees, one of which was chaired by Senator Strom Thurmond, who was also affiliated with the PMRC. Zappa further pointed out that this committee was being used as a distraction from that bill being passed, which would lead only to the benefit of a select few in the music industry.Zappa saw their activities as on a path towards censorship, and called their proposal for voluntary labelling of records with explicit content "extortion" of the music industry.In his prepared statement, he said: The PMRC proposal is an ill-conceived piece of nonsense which fails to deliver any real benefits to children, infringes the civil liberties of people who are not children, and promises to keep the courts busy for years dealing with the interpretational and enforcemental problems inherent in the proposal's design. It is my understanding that, in law, First Amendment issues are decided with a preference for the least restrictive alternative. In this context, the PMRC's demands are the... answer the following question: What is the first name of the person who stated that there was a clear conflict of interest between the PMRC due to the relations of its founders to the politicians who were then trying to pass what he referred to as the "Blank Tape Tax?"
Answer: | The first name of the person who stated that there was a clear conflict of interest between the PMRC due to the relations of its founders to the politicians who were then trying to pass what he referred to as the "Blank Tape Tax" is Frank (Zappa). |

OPTIONS:

- FGM.
- Hasan Mohamed.
- London.
- London hospital.
- Somalia.
- Southwark Crown Court.
- UK.
- Whittington Hospital.
- north London.
| The task you have given me is to identify the person who performed female genital mutilation on a young mother at the Whittington Hospital in north London and explain why his actions were against the policy of his employer.
The person who performed the illegal procedure is Dhanuson Dharmasena, a British doctor who was working at the Whittington Hospital in north London at the time of the offence.
Dharmasena's actions were against the policy of his employer, the Whittington Hospital, as female genital mutilation is illegal in the UK and is considered a form of child abuse and violence against women. The hospital has a duty to protect its patients from harm and to comply with the law. By performing FGM on a patient, Dharmasena violated the hospital's policy and put the patient's health and well-being at risk.
It is important to note that FGM is a serious violation of human rights and is recognized internationally as a harmful practice that can cause physical and psychological harm. The first prosecution of its kind in the UK highlights the need for healthcare professionals to be aware of the legal and ethical implications of FGM and to take steps to prevent it from happening. |
