question:
Paragraph- Sent 1: After graduating, Einstein spent almost two frustrating years searching for a teaching post.
Sent 2: He acquired Swiss citizenship in February 1901, but was not conscripted for medical reasons.
Sent 3: With the help of Marcel Grossmann's father Einstein secured a job in Bern at the Federal Office for Intellectual Property, the patent office, as an assistant examiner.
Sent 4: He evaluated patent applications for a variety of devices including a gravel sorter and an electromechanical typewriter.
Sent 5: In 1903, Einstein's position at the Swiss Patent Office became permanent, although he was passed over for promotion until he "fully mastered machine technology".
Sent 6: Much of his work at the patent office related to questions about transmission of electric signals and electrical-mechanical synchronization of time, two technical problems that show up conspicuously in the thought experiments that eventually led Einstein to his radical conclusions about the nature of light and the fundamental connection between space and time.
Sent 7: With a few friends he had met in Bern, Einstein started a small discussion group, self-mockingly named "The Olympia Academy", which met regularly to discuss science and philosophy.
Sent 8: Their readings included the works of Henri Poincare, Ernst Mach, and David Hume, which influenced his scientific and philosophical outlook.
answer:
What year is it in present day? After you found that answer, subract 2000.?

question:
Paragraph- Sent 1: Iwasaki's careful respect for the Long Beach program and its lawyers earned him the political capital he needed to complete his takeover in a matter of weeks.
Sent 2: "The Long Beach program had strong support in the community so in a situation like that, one has to recognize that it's not like a takeover where I have all the answers and I know best," Iwasaki said.
Sent 3: "The people in the community who are working there have the contacts and the knowledge that will allow service to continue."Sent 4: Things have gone less smoothly across town.
Sent 5: There, Dudovitz, a longtime poverty lawyer and executive director of the San Fernando Valley's 36-year-old legal aid program, continues to struggle with his hostile takeover of the neighboring San Gabriel-Pomona Valleys service area one year after it was accomplished.
Sent 6: On the bright side, Dudovitz has extended his respected program to clients in the San Gabriel-Pomona Valley, and he now operates on a much larger budget, $6.5 million last year.
Sent 7: However, his clash with the old San Gabriel program resulted in litigation, bitter feelings and a mission that some say is not clearly focused on serving poor people.
Sent 8: "It was a difficult situation that was probably mishandled by everyone," a longtime observer of the public interest community said of the San Fernando Valley-San Gabriel-Pomona Valley merger.
Sent 9: "There are very few people who come out as the heroes.
Sent 10: Personalities got involved when they shouldn't have.
Sent 11: Things were said that caused bad feelings and couldn't be unsaid."Sent 12: Iwasaki's merger with the smaller, 48-year-old Long Beach program was friendly and fast, and no one - not even Long Beach board members - lost a job.
Sent 13: When it was over, Iwasaki had $1 million more in federal dollars and two new offices.
Sent 14: Long Beach clients regained services they had lost years ago when federal budget cuts and dwindling grants reduced the staff of 15 lawyers to five and cut immigration and consumer law programs.
Sent 15: Iwasaki said, "[I judged the transition] better than I could have hoped for.".
answer:
Diuring federal buget cuts, the number of lawyers were reduced from 15 to how many?

question:
Paragraph- Sent 1: States like Minnesota and New Jersey spend three times more than California to meet the poor's legal needs, Connecticut and Massachusetts spend more than twice as much, and countries like England, Canada, Australia, Scotland and New Zealand spend anywhere from two to 14 times more proportionately than California, despite the fact that California has the world's sixth largest economy.
Sent 2: The report says the state would need to triple its combined public and private investment in legal services to adequately meet the legal needs of low-income Californians.
Sent 3: The 1996 welfare reform legisla tion, in particular, brought dramatic changes to the lives of those living in poverty, for while fewer people now receive welfare benefits, those who left welfare to work are still poor.
Sent 4: And the legal issues they face "have become more numerous and complex," the report said.
Sent 5: "Parents who found only low-paying jobs without health benefits did not improve the well-being of their children.
Sent 6: Women who entered the workforce in low-skilled positions with no opportunity to acquire marketable skills lack realistic long-term options.
Sent 7: Obstacles to employment such as lack of child care and transportation, domestic violence and job discrimination raise a host of new legal issues."Sent 8: Those issues revolve around an extensive universe of problems, including housing, education, domestic violence, immigration, employment, grandparent guardianships, bankruptcy and consumer debt, veterans' issues, elder abuse and home equity fraud, the report said.
Sent 9: To meet all those needs, there is only one legal aid lawyer for every 10,000 poor Californians.
Sent 10: Despite this bleak picture, the state's civil justice community has taken significant steps to close the gap between need and services in the past five years: The legislature and the governor established the Equal Access Fund, which has provided $10 million annually since 1999 for more than 100 local legal services programs.
Sent 11: Access to the courts has been enhanced through a variety of self-help options, including online assistance in every county, a system of family law facilitators, increased funding for alternative dispute resolution and simplified forms and procedures.
Sent 12: The Judicial Council is addressing language barriers by increasing the availability of qualified interpreters and translating forms and instructions into Spanish, Vietnam-ese, Korean and Chinese.
Sent 13: Legal services programs have been strengthened by offering a wide range of services, including self-help clinics and hotlines and working relationships with social services agencies to meet all of a client's needs.
Sent 14: Still, when more than 70 percent of the poor's legal needs are not being met, much remains to be done, the report points out.
Sent 15: It recommends adding to the access fund, increasing both the number of pro bono hours and financial contributions from attorneys, improved assistance for unrepresented litigants and access to an attorney for those who require one, and development of a statewide plan to distribute legal services more evenly throughout the state to insure that the rural population also is served.
Sent 16: "I know my fe llow judges want to do justice and not inflict injustice," observed Justice Earl Johnson of the California Court of Appeal, who chaired the committee that researched and wrote the report.
Sent 17: "More than anyone, they know it can be nearly impossible to do the former and avoid the latter in a one-sided contest where only one litigant has a lawyer."Sent 18: "Our whole society is harmed when access and fairness are denied," said Londen.
answer:
What is nearly impossible to do when only one litigant has a lawyer?
