Please answer this: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What is the last name of the person who specifically de-emphasized the threat sharks posed to humans? As the national media descended on Beach Haven, Spring Lake, and Matawan, the Jersey Shore attacks started a shark panic. According to Capuzzo, this panic was "unrivaled in American history," "sweeping along the coasts of New York and New Jersey and spreading by telephone and wireless, letter and postcard." At first, after the Beach Haven incident, scientists and the press reluctantly blamed the death of Charles Vansant on a shark. The New York Times reported that Vansant "was badly bitten in the surf ... by a fish, presumably a shark." Still, State Fish Commissioner of Pennsylvania and former director of the Philadelphia Aquarium James M. Meehan asserted in the Philadelphia Public Ledger that the shark was preying on the dog, but bit Vansant by mistake. He specifically de-emphasized the threat sharks posed to humans: Despite the death of Charles Vansant and the report that two sharks having been caught in that vicinity recently, I do not believe there is any reason why people should hesitate to go in swimming at the beaches for fear of man-eaters. The information in regard to the sharks is indefinite and I hardly believe that Vansant was bitten by a man-eater. Vansant was in the surf playing with a dog and it may be that a small shark had drifted in at high water, and was marooned by the tide. Being unable to move quickly and without food, he had come in to bite the dog and snapped at the man in passing. The media's response to the second attack was more sensational. Major American newspapers such as the Boston Herald, Chicago Sun-Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Washington Post and San Francisco Chronicle placed the story on the front page. The New York Times' headline read, "Shark Kills Bather Off Jersey Beach". The growing panic had cost New Jersey resort owners an estimated $250,000 ($5,800,000 in 2018) in lost tourism, and sun bathing had declined by 75 percent in some areas. A press conference was convened on July 8, 1916, at the American Museum of Natural History with scientists Frederic Augustus...

Problem: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What is the full name of the person that said they layed down the songs with a guide guitar through a bass amp? Pavement was formed in 1989 in Stockton, California, by Stephen Malkmus and Scott Kannberg. Malkmus and Kannberg had previously performed together in the band Bag O' Bones. Pavement had its start playing at open mike nights at clubs and bars. The songs the band played during this time were mostly covers, although they also performed many original songs that would later be released on Slay Tracks. Malkmus recalls, "It was pretty reasonable to be able to make a single for $1,000, so we decided to go for it. We didn't have any real plans because we weren't a real band." Two local studios existed in Stockton, the cheaper and less professionally minded of which was Gary Young's Louder Than You Think Studio. The band decided to record at Young's studio due to their admiration of other local punk bands who had recorded there, including The Young Pioneers and The Authorities. Kannberg reportedly borrowed $800 from his father to record Slay Tracks.Slay Tracks was recorded during a four-hour session on January 17, 1989, at Young's studio. Kannberg, describing the studio and the recording process, said, "You go into his house and it's stuff everywhere, old dogs lying around, big pot plants everywhere, and Gary tells us that he got all his equipment by selling pot! It was us going in and pretty much just laying down the songs with a guide guitar and a detuned guitar through a bass amp and then we'd play drums over the top." Young, though bewildered by the band's sound, contributed by playing drums. He recalled, "[Malkmus and Kannberg] come in and they play this weird guitar noise and it just sounds like noise, with no background. My drums were in there so I said, 'Should I drum?' and they said 'Okay.'" Kannberg said, "We did it really fast. We probably spent one day tracking and one day mixing it." The title of the EP had been decided prior to its recording, and the pseudonyms S.M. and Spiral Stairs were used to credit Malkmus and Kannberg respectively.

A: Scott Kannberg
Problem: Given the question: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What things does Tom manage to cut? On a farm, a mama duck goes out for a swim, leaving behind an egg in her nest. Tom hides in the tall grass nearby and snatches the egg once mama duck is out of sight. He rushes back to the kitchen and cracks the egg over a frying pan, but instead of the albumen and yolk, Quacker the duckling appears. Not to be put off, Tom decides he will cook roasted duck instead. Tom feeds Quacker on plenty of bread to fatten him up, and then attempts to use a meat cleaver on him. Quacker avoids the meat cleaver, which slices through the remaining loaf of bread, and escapes to Jerry's mouse hole and informs a confused Jerry of Tom's actions. Jerry peers out from his mouse hole cautiously, but Tom quickly strikes with his meat cleaver. Quacker pulls Jerry's legs, thinking at first that the mouse has been decapitated but eventually realizing the cat has only caught Jerry's whiskers. Once free, Jerry pulls Tom's tail through a wall socket and out of the hole, causing Tom to reflexively hack the meat cleaver onto his own tail. The cat screams in pain as Jerry and Quacker escape the hole.

Q: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What is the first name of the person whose nickname is the "Queen of Urban Pop"? Aaliyah Dana Haughton (; January 16, 1979 August 25, 2001) was an American singer, actress, and model. Born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in Detroit, Michigan, she first gained recognition at the age of 10, when she appeared on the television show Star Search and performed in concert alongside Gladys Knight. At the age of 12, Aaliyah signed with Jive Records and her uncle Barry Hankerson's Blackground Records. Hankerson introduced her to R. Kelly, who became her mentor, as well as lead songwriter and producer of her debut album, Age Ain't Nothing but a Number. The album sold 3 million copies in the United States and was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

"Try Again" also earned Aaliyah a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocalist.
