Question: Carson is a night security guard. He's supposed to patrol the outside of a warehouse that's 600 feet long and 400 feet wide. If Carson is supposed to circle the warehouse 10 times, but gets tired and skips 2 times, how far does he walk in one night? Answer:

First find the total distance Carson walks along the warehouse's long sides: 600 feet/side * 2 sides = <<600*2=1200>>1200 feet Then find the total distance Carson walks along the warehouse's short sides: 400 feet/side * 2 sides = <<400*2=800>>800 feet Add those two amounts to find the total distance walk in one circle: 1200 feet + 800 feet = <<1200+800=2000>>2000 feet Then find the number of circles Carson actually walks: 10 circles - 2 circles = <<10-2=8>>8 circles Then multiply the distance of one circle by the number of circles Carson makes: 2000 feet/circle * 8 circles = <<2000*8=16000>>16000 feet The answer is 16000.

Madrid (CNN) -- Spain's best-known judge will be suspended for 11 years from the bench after his conviction Thursday for improperly ordering wiretaps while investigating a financial corruption case, the nation's Supreme Court ruled. Afterward, Baltasar Garzon said he "rejects" the sentence, that the court convicted him in "an unjust and predetermined manner," and he vowed to appeal. In a statement late Thursday, Garzon said, "This sentence, without judicial reason nor evidence to support it, eliminates all possibility to investigate corruption and related crimes by opening spaces of impunity, and seriously contributing -- in an effort to stop one specific judge -- to reduced independence for Spanish judges." Garzon had ordered wiretaps against suspects who were in jail and under investigation in the case, allowing authorities to listen in on their conversations with defense attorneys and others. Their lawyers later filed a lawsuit, arguing that the wiretapping violated their constitutional right of attorney-client privilege. A seven-judge panel at the Supreme Court convicted Garzon, according to court documents. A second trial against Garzon ended on Wednesday, but judges have not yet ruled in the case. That case concerns his investigation of human rights abuses under the former dictatorship of Francisco Franco in Spain. Human rights groups say both cases, especially the second one, amount to a vendetta against Garzon, who became known internationally for his investigation into human rights abuses under former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. Garzon, 56, was suspended provisionally from the bench in 2010, pending these trials. A third case is under investigation, but no trial has been set. At a three-day trial last month in the financial corruption case, Garzon professed innocence. The case implicated some leading conservative politicians, among others, and there have been trials recently against defendants in the corruption scandal known as Gurtel. Garzon said his wiretap orders, in early 2009, were backed by state prosecutors, who did not bring charges against Garzon. He testified that he ordered the wiretaps on suspicion that suspects in the case were involved in money laundering while they were in preventative prison. But the Supreme Court judges wrote, "The central question to be resolved in this case is related to the fundamental right of defense for the suspect, against the legitimate interest of the State to pursue crimes," the sentence said. "It is not possible to have a just process if the right of defense is essentially eliminated." The sentence added that Garzon's investigation had the effect of "admitting practices which now are found only in totalitarian regimes where anything is considered valid to obtain the desired information." Garzon's possible avenues for appeal include the Constitutional Court -- Spain's highest court, which rules on constitutional issues -- or to the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg, France. Julio Villarrubia, a leader of Spain's main opposition Socialist Party, said the party "respects" the decision of the court but finds it "troubling that Judge Garzon, who has fought tirelessly against drug trafficking, terrorism and corruption," is now convicted. Human rights groups consider the second case against Garzon, for his investigation of mass graves under Franco's rule, to be the more important one. In the second trial, state prosecutors again did not press charges, but a private prosecution, allowed under Spanish law, did. It is led by a small civil servants union called Manos Limpias, or Clean Hands, which charged that Garzon ignored an amnesty law approved in the Spanish Parliament in 1977, two years after Franco's death. In that trial, which ended Wednesday -- just hours before his conviction in the corruption investigation -- Garzon testified that he searched but could not find any national census of how many people disappeared or their identities. So he decided to investigate because he considered those to be "permanent crimes" which still affect their descendants, since the remains have never been found. He said he began to see evidence that there was a "systematic plan" against Franco's opponents, which he said included forced disappearances, illegal detentions and assassinations. Franco's military uprising in 1936 triggered the three-year Spanish Civil War. The war ended when Franco's forces defeated Republican and leftist fighters. Franco's dictatorship continued until his death. Mass graves from the regime are still being unearthed, said Emilio Silva, from a group called Historical Memory. Various international observers attended the trial and Reed Brody of Human Rights Watch said on Wednesday, "This is a trial that should never have been held, but which at least served to show that Garzon acted in accordance with international law, which imposes on states a duty to investigate the worst international crimes." "The Supreme Court should put an end to this sorry episode for Spanish justice by acquitting judge Garzon of all the charges against him," Brody added. "Investigating state killings and 'disappearances' should never be considered a crime." Since his suspension in 2010, Garzon has been working as a legal adviser outside of Spain on human rights cases and judicial issues, including in Latin America. Summarize this article.

Question: Jenny makes and freezes pans of lasagna all week so she can sell them at the market on the weekend. It costs Jenny $10.00 in ingredients to make 1 pan of lasagna. If she makes and sells 20 pans over the weekend at $25.00 apiece, how much does she make after factoring in expenses? Answer:

Each pan costs $10.00 to make so for 20 pans, it will cost 10*20 = $<<10*20=200.00>>200.00 She sells each of the 20 pans for $25.00 each so she will make 20*25 = $<<20*25=500.00>>500.00 She makes $500.00 and spent $200.00 on ingredients so she makes 500-200 = $<<500-200=300.00>>300.00 The answer is 300.

Karachi, Pakistan (CNN) -- A suspected U.S. drone strike killed 10 militants early Thursday in Pakistani tribal areas, local intelligence officials said. A high-level commander with the Haqqani network, Haji Gul, was among those killed in the latest drone strike in North Waziristan Agency. Other key Afghan Taliban commanders killed in the strike included Mufti Sofian and Abu Bakar. Intelligence and local Taliban sources said the latest drone strike targeted explosive-laden vehicles meant for a mission across the Afghan border. They said the Taliban were preparing to leave when they came under attack. At least five drones were flying near Miranshah city when the strike occurred, the local intelligence officials said. The first strike in six months occurred a few hours earlier. Pakistan's government condemned the strikes. "These strikes are a violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity," the Foreign Office said in a statement. Additionally, these strikes "have a negative impact on the Government's efforts to bring peace and stability in Pakistan and the region." Northern Pakistan is home to loosely governed tribal areas near the border with Afghanistan, and is a base for foreign fighters and members of the Islamist militant Haqqani movement. The drone strikes come days after two brazen attacks on or near Pakistan's largest airport in the southern port city of Karachi. Earlier Wednesday, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan claimed that it carried out one of the attacks -- the weekend airport assault that resulted in an hours-long siege and left 36 people dead, including the assailants. The claim was made in an e-mail that included pictures that the militant group said were of the 10 attackers. The militants said the attack was carried out with the Pakistani Taliban.

Passage: Tom Ripley is a young man struggling to make a living in New York City by whatever means necessary, including a series of small-time confidence scams. One day, he is approached by shipping magnate Herbert Greenleaf to travel to "Mongibello", in Italy, to persuade Greenleaf's errant son, Dickie, to return to the United States and join the family business. Ripley agrees, exaggerating his friendship with Dickie, a half-remembered acquaintance, in order to gain the elder Greenleaf's trust. Shortly after his arrival in Italy, Ripley meets Dickie and Dickie's friend Marge Sherwood; although Ripley ingratiates himself with Dickie, Marge does not seem to like him very much. As Ripley and Dickie spend more time together, Marge feels left out and begins insinuating to Dickie that Ripley is gay. Dickie then unexpectedly finds Ripley in his bedroom dressed up in his clothes and imitating his mannerisms. Dickie is upset, and from this moment on Ripley senses that his wealthy friend has begun to tire of him, resenting his constant presence and growing personal dependence. Ripley has indeed become obsessed with Dickie, which is further reinforced by his desire to imitate and maintain the wealthy lifestyle Dickie has afforded him. As a gesture to Ripley, Dickie agrees to travel with him on a short holiday to Sanremo. Sensing that Dickie is about to cut him loose, Ripley finally decides to murder him and assume his identity. When the two set sail in a small rented boat, Ripley beats him to death with an oar, dumps his anchor-weighted body into the water, and scuttles the boat. Ripley assumes Dickie's identity, living off the latter's trust fund and carefully providing communications to Marge to assure her that Dickie has dumped her. Freddie Miles, an old friend of Dickie's from Dickie's same social set, encounters Ripley at what he supposes to be Dickie's apartment in Rome; he soon suspects something is wrong. When Miles finally confronts him, Ripley kills him with an ashtray. He later disposes of the body on the outskirts of Rome, attempting to make police believe that robbers have murdered Miles. Ripley enters a cat-and-mouse game with the Italian police but manages to keep himself safe by restoring his own identity and moving to Venice. In succession, Marge, Dickie's father, and an American private detective confront Ripley, who suggests to them that Dickie was depressed and may have committed suicide. Marge stays for a while at Ripley's rented house in Venice. When she discovers Dickie's rings in Ripley's possession, she seems to be on the verge of realising the truth. Panicked, Ripley contemplates murdering Marge, but she is saved when she says that if Dickie gave his rings to Ripley, then he probably meant to kill himself. The story concludes with Ripley traveling to Greece and resigning himself to eventually getting caught. On arrival in Greece, however, he discovers that the Greenleaf family has accepted that Dickie is dead, and Ripley shall inherit Dickie's fortune according to a will forged by Ripley on Dickie's Hermes typewriter. While the book ends with Ripley happily rich, it also suggests that he may forever be dogged by paranoia. In one of the final paragraphs, he nervously envisions a group of police officers waiting to arrest him, and Highsmith leaves her protagonist wondering, "...was he going to see policemen waiting for him on every pier that he ever approached?" Question: Where does Ripley dispose of Freddie Mile's body? Answer:

On the outskirts of Rome.

Passage: At Madeline Hall, an old mansion-house near Southampton belonging to the wealthy de Versely family, lives an elderly spinster Miss Delmar, the aunt of the earl de Versely and Captain Delmar. Miss Delmar invites Arabella Mason, the daughter of a deceased, well-liked steward to stay with her as a lower-class guest in the house. Captain Delmar is known to visit his aunt at Madeline Hall frequently, accompanied by his valet Ben Keene, who is also a private marine. Captain Delmar eventually suggests that Ben should propose to Arabella, and the two marry in secret, to the frustration of Miss Delmar and Arabella's mother. The captain is able to smooth over the situation with his aunt, even after it is discovered that Arabella was six months pregnant at the time of the marriage. She later gives birth to a boy, who takes the Captain's Christian name and Ben's surname--the titular Percival Keene. The family moves to Chatham, after Ben is ordered back with his detachment. Arabella opens up a successful shop and circulating library below her house, enlisting the help of her mother and sister, Amelia. Percival becomes well known in town from his mischievous pranks on officers and other strangers, often encouraged by his aunt Amelia. However, Percival's mother and grandmother are less fond of his disregard for manners, and insist on sending him to school after an episode in which he bites his grandmother. Percival reports to the school house of Mr. O'Gallagher, a poor Irish scholar, who rules his class with a system of severe corporal punishment. Mr. O'Gallagher routinely bullies Percival by stealing his lunch, leading Percival to seek revenge by poisoning his sandwiches with calomel. On Guy Fawkes Day the schoolteacher confiscates all the schoolboys' fireworks, for which Percival retaliates by setting off the collected fireworks while the teacher sits above them, leading to the total destruction of the schoolhouse and near death of the schoolmaster. When Percival is a young teenager, Captain Delmar reappears and offers him a position aboard his new navy ship, the H.M. Calliope. While preparing to enter service, Percival overhears gossip of his illegitimate birth, introducing the idea that Captain Delmar may be his father. He confronts his mother about his parentage, which she at first harshly denies but later tearfully explains the truth of her affair. Early in his service in the navy, Percival is captured during a pirate raid along with others. The pirate crew is entirely black, and the captain explains that they are primarily escaped slaves from the Americas. Percival is taken in as a cabin boy, and later dyes his skin tan in the appearance of a mulatto to please the captain who doesn't approve of white skin. The pirates often seek to take over slave trading vessels, killing every white person on board. During the taking of one such vessel, Percival is able is convince the captain to spare the lives of a wealthy Dutch merchant and his young daughter, Minnie. Eventually the H.M. Calliope takes the pirate ship, and Percival--unrecognizable with his dyed skin--is taken as a prisoner, later to convince his fellow shipman of his true identity. After his reappearance aboard the ship, Percival gains esteem among the crew and is welcomed back by the emotional Captain Delmar. His reputation continues to grow over the course of his service in conflicts with Dutch and French vessels around the island of Curacao. He also stands in for an ill Captain Delmar in a duel with a French officer, effectively saving the captain's life. At this point, the captain receives news that his older brother has died, making him the new Lord de Versely, and before returning to England he grants Perceval command of his own schooner. After another intense but successful battle with a French war ship, Percival is promoted to captain. During his service in the Navy, Percival still partakes in the merry pranks of his youth, and at one point teams up with a mulatto hotel owner in Curaรงao to convince his fellow officers they've been poisoned. He also keeps correspondence with Minnie, developing a romance with the beautiful heiress. Near the end of the story, Percival guides his crew through a terrible storm in which many of the crew are killed and the ship is heavily damaged. After being saved by another English vessel, he receives a letter informing him of Lord de Versely's sudden death from heart complications and learns that he has been left all of his personal property. Percival is still disappointed that he can not take his father's name. He later journey's with his friend Bob Cross to Hamburg to reunite with Minnie, but is captured by French troops on the road and sentenced to execution for spying. During a skirmish between the French and the Cossacks, Percival and Cross are able to escape and continue on the road. At the end of the novel, Percival proposes to Minnie, and stands to inherit a great fortune through her father. He also receives a letter from the de Versely attorney letting him know he has been granted the arms and name of Delmar. Question: Who did Percival reunited with? Answer:

Minnie

Question: Susan is making jewelry with a repeating pattern that has 3 green beads, 5 purple beads, and twice as many red beads as green beads. If the pattern repeats three times per bracelet and 5 times per necklace, how many beads does she need to make 1 bracelets and 10 necklaces? Answer:

First find the number of red beads per repeat: 3 green * 2 red/green = <<3*2=6>>6 red Then add the number of beads of each color to find the total number of bead per repeat: 6 beads + 3 beads + 5 beads = <<6+3+5=14>>14 beads Then multiply the number of beads per repeat by the number of repeats per bracelet to find the number of beads per bracelet: 14 beads/repeat * 3 repeats/bracelet = <<14*3=42>>42 beads/bracelet Then multiply the number of beads per repeat by the number of repeats per necklace to find the number of beads per necklace: 14 beads/repeat * 5 repeats/necklace = <<14*5=70>>70 beads/necklace Then multiply the number of beads per necklace by the number of necklaces to find the total number of beads used in the necklaces: 70 beads/necklace * 10 necklaces = <<70*10=700>>700 beads Then add the number of beads used in a bracelet to the number of beads in the necklaces to find the total number of beads used: 700 beads + 42 beads = <<700+42=742>>742 beads The answer is 742.

Passage: The play loosely follows the life of Joan of Arc. It contains a prologue introducing the important characters, followed by five acts. Each dramatizes a significant event in Joan's life. Down into Act IV the play departs from history in only secondary details (e.g. by making Joan kill people in battle, and by shifting the reconciliation between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians from 1435 to 1430). Thereafter, however, the plot is entirely free. Joan is about to kill an English knight when, on removing his helmet, she at once falls in love with him, and spares him. Blaming herself for what she regards as a betrayal of her mission, then, when at Reims she is publicly accused of sorcery, she refuses to defend herself, is assumed to be guilty, and dismissed from the French court and army. Captured by the English, she witnesses from her prison cell a battle in which the French are being decisively defeated, breaks her bonds, and dashes out to save the day. She dies as victory is won, her honour and her reputation both restored. The play reflects the new nationalism and militarism of the budding nineteenth century, and also the Kantian ideal of the need to subject emotion to moral principle. The line "Mit der Dummheit kämpfen GÜtter selbst vergebens" (III, 6; Talbot) translates into English as "Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain." This provided Isaac Asimov with the title of his novel The Gods Themselves. This was the most performed (at least in Germany) of all Schiller's plays down to the Great War. In modern post-war Germany, its militarism is an embarrassment, but the dramatic power of the last two acts keeps the play on the stage. Question: What ideals does the play embody? Answer:

Nationalism and Militarism.

Question: A jar on the family's counter contains change they've been saving a trip to the ice cream shop. There are 123 pennies, 85 nickels, 35 dimes, and a number of quarters. All five family members get a double scoop, which costs $3 each. After the trip, they have 48 cents left over. How many quarters were in the jar? Answer:

The family spent $15 on ice cream because 5 x 3 = <<5*3=15>>15 They total amount of change they had was $15.48 because 15 + .48 = <<15+.48=15.48>>15.48 They have $1.23 in pennies because 123 x .01 = <<123*.01=1.23>>1.23 They have $4.25 in nickels because 85 x .05 = <<85*.05=4.25>>4.25 They have $3.50 in dimes because 35 x .1 = <<35*.1=3.5>>3.5 Without the quarters they have a total of $8.98 because 1.23 + 4.25 + 3.5 = <<1.23+4.25+3.5=8.98>>8.98 They have $6.5 worth of quarters because 15.48-8.98 = <<15.48-8.98=6.5>>6.5 They have 26 quarters because 6.5 / .25 = <<6.5/.25=26>>26 The answer is 26.

Passage: The first book of the History, after a brief review of early Greek history and some programmatic historiographical commentary, seeks to explain why the Peloponnesian War broke out when it did and what its causes were. Except for a few short excursuses (notably 6.54-58 on the Tyrant Slayers), the remainder of the History (books 2 through 8) rigidly maintains its focus on the Peloponnesian War to the exclusion of other topics. While the History concentrates on the military aspects of the Peloponnesian War, it uses these events as a medium to suggest several other themes closely related to the war. It specifically discusses in several passages the socially and culturally degenerative effects of war on humanity itself. The History is especially concerned with the lawlessness and atrocities committed by Greek citizens to each other in the name of one side or another in the war. Some events depicted in the History, such as the Melian dialogue, describe early instances of realpolitik or power politics. The History is preoccupied with the interplay of justice and power in political and military decision-making. Thucydides' presentation is decidedly ambivalent on this theme. While the History seems to suggest that considerations of justice are artificial and necessarily capitulate to power, it sometimes also shows a significant degree of empathy with those who suffer from the exigencies of the war. For the most part, the History does not discuss topics such as the art and architecture of Greece. Question: What is realpolitik? Answer:

Power politics

A citizen of a state was arrested and charged under a state statute making it a felony for "a male to sell or give alcoholic beverages to a female under the age of 14. " At his trial, the citizen attacked the validity of the state statute on federal constitutional grounds. The court will likely hold the statute to be A. constitutional, because under the Twenty First Amendment, a state has exclusive authority to regulate the use and sale of intoxicating liquors. B. constitutional, because the state could reasonably believe that young females need more protection than young males under these circumstances. C. unconstitutional, because it lacks a legitimate purpose and, therefore, is violative of the Fourteenth Amendment. D. unconstitutional, because the law treats males and females differently without adequate justification and, therefore, is violative of the Fourteenth Amendment. Answer:

D. unconstitutional, because the law treats males and females differently without adequate justification and, therefore, is violative of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Question: When Jason plays the video game, Duty for Ashes, his mission to slay the dragon hoard requires that he fire his weapon on average every 15 seconds. And each time he fires his weapon, his power-fire setting allows him to shoot a flame for 5 seconds. On average, how many seconds per minute does Jason shoot flames at the dragon hoard? Answer:

Since he fires his weapon on average every 15 seconds, then in one minute he fires the flamethrower 60/15=<<60/15=4>>4 times. And since each time he fires his weapon, he shoots flame for 5 seconds, then Jason shoots flames at the dragon hoard a total of 4*5=<<4*5=20>>20 seconds of every minute. The answer is 20.

By . Emily Crane . and Sarah Michael for Daily Mail Australia . Australians may be allowed to purchase cars online from overseas dealers under a radical new plan put forward by the federal government. The plan, which is expected to draw backlash from local car dealerships, would allow Australians to import their own cars as long as they were aligned with accepted international safety standards. The Coalition wants to remove current red tape and barriers that restrict people from buying new cars from overseas in a move that would aim to deregulate the automotive market for consumers. Scroll down for video . Australians may be allowed to purchase cars online from overseas dealers under a radical new plan put forward by the federal government . It comes as new car sales figures released on Wednesday showed demand for new cars had dropped 5.5 percent compared with last August. A discussion paper from the government says a review of the Motor Vehicle Standards Act needs to occur to stay updated with changes to the international automotive market, considering it was last reviewed 14 years ago. The Motor Vehicle Standards Act delivers national vehicle standards for new motor vehicles and regulates the first supply of used imported vehicles to the Australian market. 'At the moment there are certain schemes for importation, but it is very difficult and complicated and very bureaucratic,' Assistant Infrastructure Minister Jamie Briggs told The Australian. . Assistant Infrastructure Minister Jamie Briggs said certain schemes for importation were difficult and complicated, with only about 3,000 cars getting imported by individuals each year . The plan, which is expected to draw backlash from local car dealerships, would allow Australians to import their own cars as long as they were aligned with accepted international safety standards . There's currently only about 3,000 cars that get imported in Australia by individuals each year - people can't import their own vehicles unless they're given special approval. 'Why shouldn't consumers have the option to do that if there is no good safety reason why they can’t? There would be an element of buyer beware that people will need to be conscious of; it is a big purchase to buy something sight unseen.' The government's plan would give consumers access to vehicles at the lowest possible cost, including luxury vehicles, and would be from markets with right-hand drive vehicles like Britain, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand and India. The discussion paper considers a range of reform options including ideas put forward by the Productivity Commission in its Report on Australia's Automotive Manufacturing Industry. The Productivity Commission's proposal to reduce restrictions on second-hand imports is canvassed in the paper. A discussion paper from the government says a review of the Motor Vehicle Standards Act needs to occur to stay updated with changes to the international automotive market . Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe signed an economic partnership agreement back in July, which would see a reduced cost in Japanese cars. Australian Automobile Association chief Andrew McKellar said Japan was the largest source of imported vehicles in Australia and made up about 30 per cent of the market. 'We would estimate [the trade deal] would reduce the amount of tax payable on a new car by about $1000 to $2000,' Mr McKellar told Daily Mail Australia. 'For a larger vehicle like a [Toyota] Land Cruiser the saving is probably closer to $3000.' The government's plan would bring down the price of cars, including luxury vehicles, and would be from markets with right-hand drive vehicles like Britain, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand and India .

(CNN) -- Catholic faithful from Latin America cheered the historic election of the first pope from the region Wednesday. Crowds swarmed outside the metropolitan cathedral in Buenos Aires, chanting as they waved Argentine flags. Smiling immigrants and tourists praised the news on the steps of New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral. Pilgrims at Mexico City's Basilica of Guadalupe said they were thrilled. Even though about 480 million of the world's 1.2 billion Catholics live in Latin America, for centuries, the church's top job has gone to Europeans. That changed with the announcement that Argentine Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who served as archbishop of Buenos Aires, would become the new pontiff. Bergoglio, 76, chose the name Pope Francis. "I felt like crying. I felt great excitement. It is a blessing from God," said Ines Ambrosi, who spoke to CNN en Español outside New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral shortly after the news was announced. "In Latin America there are millions of Catholics and truly it has been a bit forgotten by the church. Now we feel very represented, and proud." New pope adopts the name Francis . Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner -- whose government has sparred with Bergoglio in the past -- sent a letter congratulating him as he assumed his new role. "Today is a historic day. ... For the first time in 2,000 years of the church there is going to be a pope that comes from Latin America," she said later at an event broadcast on public television. "And from our hearts we wish for Francis that he can accomplish a greater degree of fraternity between peoples and religions." Talk Back: What kind of spiritual leader will draw people back to organized religion? Argentine Martin Watson compared the new pope to another kind of celebration that has historically been far more common in his country. "The news, for us, was almost like winning the World Cup in soccer," he said. But he added that the papal pick goes beyond national pride. "For Latin America, it will be a great change. More eyes will be focused on our region, and maybe we'll have more support for our region," he said. "We have a lot of needs. We have more than 50% in each country of the region (that) are very poor. That would be a great help for them." 5 things to know about the new pope . Excitement spreads beyond Argentina . Mexico's Catholic bishops released a statement praising the news. "For the churches that are pilgrims in Latin America, it is the cause of great joy," the statement said. "For the Mexican church, it is a clear sign of love for the churches that are pilgrims in these lands." In St. Peter's Square in Vatican City, a woman from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, told CNN's Anderson Cooper she was overcome with emotion. "I feel that Mexico has been a country that has suffered a lot, and so has Latin America, but it is a people that has always put trust in God," she said, "so it is absolutely wonderful to represent our part of the world this time around." Beside her, a woman from Mexico City said her heart jumped when she heard the announcement that a pope had been picked. A look at the life of Cardinal Bergoglio . "I'm so excited," she said. "It's a reason of being proud tonight, because Latin America is a very important Catholic area and now it's going to be totally represented here, so I'm so proud and I'm so happy today. ... It's going to help a lot, a Latin American pope, it's going to help. It's going to rebuild many things, and it's a new start." In Brazil, the secretary-general of the country's Council of Bishops said he and many others were surprised, but happy, that Bergoglio was chosen. "It is a very beautiful sign that the cardinals gave us by electing a Latin American cardinal, now our Pope Francis," said Leonardo Ulrich Steiner, according to state-run Agencia Brasil. "It shows that the church is truly universal." In Venezuela, interim leader Nicolas Maduro suggested the late President Hugo Chavez -- who died last week -- could have influenced the church's historic move. "We know that our commander ascended to those heights," Maduro said in remarks broadcast on state-run VTV. "He is face to face with Christ. He influenced something. ... Some new hand arrived, and Christ said, well, the new hour of South America has arrived." Before Wednesday's announcement, speculation had surged that the church might select its first non-European pope of the modern era. What's in a name? "It would be an enormous gesture to name a Latin American pope," Virginia Garrard-Burnett, a professor of history and religious studies at the University of Texas at Austin, said earlier this week. Because Catholicism is losing ground in the region, a pope from there could be a boost for the faith, she said. Priest: Pope gives hope and pride to U.S. Latinos . The pick is also good news for Catholic Latinos in the United States, said the Rev. Juan J. Molina, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops associate director for the church in Latin America. "He is also the son of migrants. And for us, Hispanics in the United States, this is very important. ... I think that this topic of migration is going to be very important for him," Molina told CNN en Español. "And we, the Hispanics, the Latinos that now live in the United States ... we can also take some hope and pride that this pope intimately knows and has deeply lived the life of a migrant." New pope's name choice 'precedent shattering' Bergoglio's selection also sends a significant message throughout Latin America, Molina said, where the Catholic faith has had a strong presence for centuries. "The election of a Latin American pope demonstrates that we are now empowered with this faith," Molina said. "The church in Latin America is a mature church." Even the new pope himself alluded to the fact that the church had reached farther than ever for its papal pick. In his first speech from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, he quipped Wednesday that cardinals had gone to "the end of the world" to find him. CNN's Mariano Castillo and Marysabel Huston-Crespo in Atlanta, CNNMexico and Rey Rodriguez in Mexico City, Jose Manuel Rodriguez in Buenos Aires, Juan Carlos Lopez in Washington and Rafael Fuenmayor in New York contributed to this report.

"Today is a historic day," Argentina's president says . Priest: The pope's past as the son of immigrants could resonate with Latinos . Mexican bishops say his selection is "a sign of love" for Latin American churches . Pope Francis is the first pope from Latin America .

Tim Sherwood stared straight ahead, unmoved for what seemed an eternity as Victor Moses rolled in Stoke’s stoppage-time penalty to suck the hope out of his debut as Aston Villa manager. ‘Devastated,’ he explained later, never one to under-sell a description. His face on the touchline as his first match ended in defeat illustrated as much. Just when it seemed Villa would claim a point, underwhelming in the circumstances but important in the grand scheme, they left with none.

Scott Sinclair celebrates putting Aston Villa ahead at Villa Park in new manager Sherwood's official first game in charge . Mame Biram Diouf equalised for Stoke City, and here he is congratulated by Victor Moses jumping on the forward's back .

Ron Vlaar erred to allow a marauding Moses possession inside the Villa box, then tried to make amends with a diving tackle that only resulted referee Roger East pointing to the spot and producing a red card. In the third minute of added time, Moses sent Brad Guzan the wrong way and the final whistle was swiftly followed by the boos that have frequently echoed around this stadium. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. It is 11 Premier League games without victory for Villa. As bouncy as Sherwood had been in the build-up to this game, his demeanour in the aftermath showed the opposite extreme. ‘No-one feels as down as I am,’ he said. ‘No-one.’ He added: ‘It is not all rosy in the garden obviously here, nobody said it was going to be easy. It was a cruel way to lose the game but in the end I thought neither team deserved to win.’ That summation is probably correct, even though Stoke once again illustrated their threat away from the Britannia. This was a fifth win on the road this season, the club’s best total in Premier League history, and all the more impressive given Villa had taken the lead. Villa's team-sheet strangely included Kevin Richardson (No 18), a former Villa player who appeared for the club over twenty years ago . Alan Hutton attempts to challenge Jonathan Walters down the wing during the first half as the Stoke man puts a cross in . Asmir Begovic can only watch as Sinclair's header flies into the net to put Villa in front while the forward wheels away to celebrate . Sinclair scored his second goal in two games after settling last week's FA Cup tie with Leicester City with Sherwood in the stands . Sherwood and his bench jump up to celebrate Sinclair's strike with goals having been hard to come by recently for Villa . ‘I’m delighted,’ said Mark Hughes. ‘A lot of people were saying we would get beaten today because we wouldn’t be able to deal with the reaction to Tim’s arrival. We stood up to that and didn’t allow Villa to get any real momentum.’ Sherwood must pick himself and his players up quickly, with this loss sending Villa down to 19th below Burnley. ‘We have to put this behind us and not dwell,’ Sherwood said. ‘I can be devastated now but I won’t be devastated on Monday. Games come thick and fast.’ There are just 12 left for Sherwood to avert the disaster of a drop to the Championship. It had begun brightly, even after an early struggle for lift-off amid a freak hailstone blitz. Scott Sinclair provided the first goal of the Sherwood era, his header worthy of the No 9 on his back. In the 20th minute Carles Gil hit a corner that drifted all the way to Fabian Delph on the left flank, with Sinclair falling to the floor in a tangle with Phil Bardsley. He got to his feet quickly and arrived onto Delph’s cross to glance the ball in off the far post. He celebrated arms wide, his first Premier League strike since August 2012. It was also the first Villa goal in an opening period since December 20. But Stoke found a foothold and began to push back, grabbing an equaliser on the stroke of half-time. Stephen Ireland took a throw to Jonathan Walters, who held off substitute Aly Cissokho and played the ball back. Ireland whipped over a cross and Mame Biram Diouf found space between Vlaar and Alan Hutton to nod in. Sherwood took charge of his first game at Villa Park and was delighted with Sinclair's opener that put the home side in front . Ciaran Clark, Delph, Benteke and Gabriel Agbonlahor (L-R) all rush in to congratulate Sinclair (centre) while a Stoke defender lies injured .

Christian Benteke jinks to get away from his marker Glenn Whelan as the out-of-sorts striker looked to put Villa back in front . Sherwood, as ever an animated figure on the touchline, reacts to a missed chance for his side with the scores level at 1-1 . Diouf tries to get ahead of Vlaar inside the penalty area as the powerful forward causes problems for the Villa defence in the second half . The second half was a low-key affair, punctuated by frequent injuries. Referee East was among those hurt, prompting much mirth. Jon Walters held up an imaginary substitute board. ‘You’re not fit to referee,’ was sung by the Holte End. Sherwood used the delay to hold a team talk, but there was little improvement from his team. Ciaran Clark’s header drew a finger-tip save from Begovic in the final minute, but it was Stoke who struck instead. If he did not know before, Sherwood must now realise the scale of his task. Roger East needed to add on more time at the end of the match because of a stoppage caused by an injury he suffered . East needed treatment from Aston Villa's medical staff as the Holte End sang: 'You're not fit to referee' to the injured official .

Passage: Trinity, an infamous hacker, is cornered by police in an abandoned hotel. She overpowers them with superhuman abilities and escapes, but a group of sinister and superhuman black-suited Agents lead the police in a rooftop pursuit. She answers a ringing public telephone and vanishes. Thomas Anderson is a computer programmer living a double life under the hacker alias "Neo". He believes something is wrong with the world and is puzzled by repeated online encounters with the cryptic phrase "the Matrix". Trinity contacts him, saying that a man named Morpheus can explain its meaning; however, the Agents, led by Agent Smith, apprehend Neo at his office. Undeterred, Neo meets Morpheus, who offers him a choice between a red pill that will allow him to learn the truth about the Matrix, and a blue pill that will return him to his old life. Swallowing the red pill, Neo's reality disintegrates and he awakens, naked and weak, in a liquid-filled pod, finding himself one of countless people connected by cables to an elaborate electrical system. He is rescued and brought aboard Morpheus's hovercraft, the Nebuchadnezzar. Morpheus explains that, in the 21st century, humans waged a war against intelligent machines that they had created. When humans blocked the machines' access to solar energy, the machines began to harvest the humans' bioelectricity for power. The Matrix is a shared simulation of the world as it was in 1999 in which the minds of the harvested humans are trapped and pacified; Neo has been living in it since birth. Morpheus and his crew belong to a group of rebels who hack into the Matrix and "unplug" enslaved humans, recruiting them as rebels. The rebels' understanding of the true nature of the simulated reality allows them to bend its physical laws, granting them superhuman abilities. Neo is warned that fatal injuries within the Matrix will also kill one's physical body, and that the Agents he encountered are powerful sentient programs that eliminate threats to the system. Neo's skill during virtual combat training lends credence to Morpheus's belief that Neo is "the One", a man prophesied to lead the insurrection of enslaved humans against the machines. The group enters the Matrix to visit the Oracle, a prophet who predicted the emergence of the One. She implies that Neo is not the One, and warns Neo that he will soon have to choose between his life and the life of Morpheus. Before they can leave the Matrix, the group is ambushed by Agents and tactical police. Morpheus allows himself to be captured so that Neo and the crew can escape. However, their getaway is hindered by Cypher, a crew member who betrayed Morpheus to Agent Smith in exchange for a comfortable life within the Matrix. Cypher disconnects and murders several crew members as they lie defenseless in the real world, before he is killed by Tank, a crewman whom he had left for dead. In the Matrix, the Agents interrogate Morpheus in an attempt to learn his access codes to the mainframe computer in Zion, the rebel humans' last refuge in the real world. Tank proposes killing Morpheus to prevent this, but Neo, who believes that he is not the One, instead resolves to return to the Matrix to rescue Morpheus, and Trinity insists on accompanying him. They succeed in rescuing Morpheus, and in doing so Neo gains the necessary confidence in his abilities, performing feats on par with those of the Agents. Morpheus and Trinity exit the Matrix, but Smith ambushes and kills Neo before he can leave. In the real world, "sentinel" machines attack the Nebuchadnezzar, while Trinity stands over Neo and whispers to him that the Oracle told her that she would fall in love with the One. She kisses Neo, and he revives, this time with the power to perceive and control the Matrix. He effortlessly destroys Smith and leaves the Matrix in time for the ship's electromagnetic pulse weapon to disable the attacking sentinels. Some time later, Neo makes a telephone call in the Matrix, promising the machines that he will show their prisoners "a world where anything is possible". He hangs up and flies into the sky. Question: Who decides to return to the Matrix in an attempt to save Morpheus? Answer:

Neo

Passage: Jackie Brown is a flight attendant for a small Mexican airline. To make ends meet, she smuggles money from Mexico into the United States for Ordell Robbie, a black-market gun runner living in the Los Angeles metropolitan area under the ATF's close watch, forcing him to use couriers. Ordell learns that another of his couriers, Beaumont Livingston, has been arrested. Assuming that Livingston will become an informant in order to avoid jail time, Ordell arranges for bail with bondsman Max Cherry, then coaxes Livingston into a car trunk and murders him. Acting on information Beaumont had already shared, ATF agent Ray Nicolette and LAPD detective Mark Dargus intercept Jackie as she returns to the United States with Ordell's cash and some cocaine that Brown was unaware was stashed in her bag. Initially refusing to cut a deal, she is sent to jail which alerts Ordell that she might also be a threat to inform. Having received payment from Ordell, Max picks up Jackie from the jail and begins to develop an attraction to her. Ordell arrives at Jackie's house intending to murder her but she surprises him by pulling a gun surreptitiously taken from Max's glove compartment. Jackie negotiates a deal with Ordell to pretend to help the authorities while smuggling in $550,000 of Ordell's money, enough to allow him to retire. To carry out this plan, Ordell is counting on Melanie Ralston, an unambitious, stoned surfer girl with whom he lives, and Louis Gara, a friend and former cellmate. Unaware of Jackie and Ordell's plan to smuggle in $550,000, Nicolette and Dargus devise a sting to catch Ordell during a transfer of $50,000. Unbeknownst to all, Jackie plans to double-cross everyone and keep $500,000 for herself. She recruits Max to assist with her plan and offers him a cut. In the Del Amo Mall on the day of the transfer, Jackie enters a dressing room to try on a new suit. She has told Ordell that she will swap bags there with Melanie, supposedly passing off the $550,000 under the nose of Nicolette, who has been told that the exchange is to take place in the food court. Instead, the bag she gives Melanie contains only $50,000 and the rest is left behind in the dressing room for Max to pick up. Jackie then feigns despair as she calls Nicolette and Dargus out from hiding, claiming Melanie took all the money and ran. In the parking lot, Melanie mocks Louis until he loses his temper and shoots her. Louis confesses this to Ordell. Ordell is livid when he discovers that most of the money is gone, and he realizes that Jackie is to blame. When Louis mentions that during the hand-off he saw Max Cherry in the store's dress department and thought nothing of it, Ordell kills him and leaves with the bag. Ordell turns his anger toward Max, who informs him that Jackie is frightened for her life and is waiting in Max's office to hand over the money. A menacing Ordell holds Max at gunpoint as they enter the darkened office. Jackie suddenly yells that Ordell has a gun, and Nicolette jumps from a hiding place and shoots him dead. Having had her charges dropped for cooperating with the ATF, and now in possession of the money as well as Ordell's car, Jackie decides to leave the country and travel to Madrid, Spain. She invites Max to go along with her, but he declines. Jackie shares a meaningful moment with Max, kisses him goodbye, and leaves as Max takes a phone call. Moments later, Max cuts the call short and seems to contemplate his decision to stay behind as Jackie drives away. Question: Where does Jackie decide to travel at the end of the story? Answer:

Madrid, Spain

To get the perimeter, you add all the sides o the triangles, so the first two sides add up to 40+50 = <<40+50=90>>90 cm. If the perimeter of the triangle is 160, the remaining side is 160-90 = <<160-90=70>>70 cm. The answer is 70.

By . Alex Greig . PUBLISHED: . 02:05 EST, 26 January 2014 . | . UPDATED: . 02:05 EST, 26 January 2014 . Employees at an Austin, Texas camera equipment store have created a comical version of security footage of a somewhat inept thief breaking into their store. Last Saturday at 1:28am, the thief stole several items from Texas Media Systems. The hilarious video shows surveillance footage of the robbery, set to the Mission Impossible theme song played by chorus of kazoos. Breaking in: The thief finally breaks through the shop's glass door before fumbling with the green screen . Mad dash: He runs into the store wielding a sledgehammer . The thief can be seen incompetently trying to break through the store's glass doors. Finally entering the store after outwitting a green screen, the thief, wielding a sledgehammer, smashes display cabinets and other items in his artless attempt at thievery. With each item the robber steals, a graphic appears over the security footage detailing the piece of equipment and its worth. Among the loot is a $60 mixer, a $299 boom microphone and a $400 camera. Loot: The inept thief gets his hands on a $60 mixer . Smashed glass: The thief caused a lot of damage but stole just a few relatively worthless items from the store . The bumbling burglar darts around the store, at one point dropping an expensive piece of equipment only to grab a significantly cheaper item in its stead. The video was posted on YouTube with the description: 'Our store got broken into. Judging from the surveillance video the thief doesn't seem to be highly skilled in his area.' The second half of the video, which features the burglar trying to leave the store, is set to Queen's Bohemian Rhasody - with kazoos, of course. The robber kicks his way out of the store, losing his mask as he goes, dropping all the things he stole and falling over onto the prone green screen. Blind robber: The owners of the store, which carries very expensive film and audio equipment, can't believe they weren't robbed blind in the incident . Trouble: The thief slips over on his old nemesis the green screen as he tries to take the stolen goods out of the store . Getaway car: He finally leaves the scene in what looks like a rather expensive vehicle (seen out of the shop windows) He finally leaves Texas Media Systems with a total of $1,358 worth of stolen goods, from a store that carries cameras worth upwards of $10,000 and a set of lenses worth $46,000. Employees of Texas Media Systems note that the thief speeds away from the scene in what appears to be a $40,000 Nissan GTR getaway car. The video was posted Saturday and already has more than 35,000 views. The thief clearly didn't anticipate, despite robbing a store that deals in cameras and film equipment, that employees turn their misfortune into a cinematic triumph cum viral internet hit. According to KVUE, the clumsy thief has not yet been apprehended. Summarize this article.

By . Alex Gore . PUBLISHED: . 07:54 EST, 11 February 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 10:06 EST, 11 February 2013 . A Nike salesman has been sacked from the company's flagship London store for trying to sell his own second hand, company-issue trainers online. Daniel Jones, 23, posted a message on Facebook when his mother asked him to clear out his bedroom wardrobe, advertising five pairs of Nike shoes. He had accumulated the trainers during three-and-a-half years working at Nike's Oxford Street store. Sacked: Salesman Daniel Jones lost his job at Niketown for trying to sell five of his own trainers on Facebook . Mr Jones had bought two of the pairs himself at full price and two at a discount and had been given the fifth pair for free. He said would have accepted around £200 for all five and insisted he was only trying to earn a bit of money and not deliberately cash in on his job. But within days of his message appearing on his Facebook page he was hauled in by bosses and accused of gross misconduct. Mr Jones was suspended on the spot from his part-time £8,000-a-year job and sent home to Essex to await his fate. He then got a letter from the company telling him he had been sacked. He said: 'All I was doing was clearing out my wardrobe because my parents were going on about it. 'I thought I'll just stick the trainers on Facebook along with a lot of other clutter to see if anyone of my close friend wanted to buy them. Star salesman: Mr Jones stressed he has an exemplary record and claims he was fired without any warning . Flagship: Mr Jones worked at Niketown, which is at the centre London's busiest shopping street . 'Most of them are several years' old but Nike accused me of trying to make a profit out of their business. 'They told me I wasn't allowed to advertise their stuff but I was only having a clear-out like anyone else.' Mr Jones was granted an appeal hearing against his sacking but Nike refused to change their mind. He added: 'They told me it didn't matter if I'd made a penny or a thousand pounds out of the sale - it was still a breach of company policy. 'I cooperated with them and removed all existence of my posts to friends on Facebook as soon as I was made aware of my mistake, but yet they still sacked me. Misconduct: The 23-year-old was hauled in by his bosses within days of the shoes appearing on Facebook . Second hand: Two pairs of the trainers Mr Jones was trying to sell were bought at full price . 'The fact I still had the intention to sell means I breached their rule book. The whole nonsense has been so distressing, I've had trouble sleeping. 'It wasn't premeditated and I was one of their best salesmen with an exemplary record, yet I'm kicked out without any warning.' He has now contacted a solicitor and ACAS and is considering further action for unfair dismissal. A Nike spokesman said: 'This employee was dismissed from Niketown London on the grounds of gross misconduct. 'The . Nike Employee Handbook states that the re-selling of discounted Nike . goods by employees at a profit is considered gross misconduct. 'All .

Question: Corey downloaded two movie series from his Netflix account with 12 and 14 seasons per series, respectively. However, in the week, his computer got a mechanical failure, and he lost two episodes from each season for both series. If each season in the movie series that Corey downloaded had 16 episodes, how many episodes remained after the computer's mechanical failure? Answer:

In the first movie series with 12 seasons, after the mechanical failure, the number of episodes that Corey lost is 2*12 = <<2*12=24>>24 Originally, the movie series with 12 seasons had 12*16 = <<12*16=192>>192 episodes. After the mechanical failure, Corey had 192-24 = <<192-24=168>>168 episodes remaining in the first movie series. Similarly, the 14 season movie series also had 14*2 = <<14*2=28>>28 lost after the computer's mechanical failure. Originally, the movie series with 14 seasons has 14*16 = <<14*16=224>>224 episodes. The mechanical failure of the computer reduced the number of episodes in the 14 season movie series to 224-28 = <<224-28=196>>196 After the loss, Corey had 196+168 = <<196+168=364>>364 episodes remaining from the two movie series he had downloaded. The answer is 364.

Question: Oshea bought 200 basil seeds. He wants to plant them in planters. He has 4 large planters that can hold 20 seeds each. He also has small planters that can hold 4 seeds each. How many small planters will he need to plant all the basil seeds? Answer:

The large planters can hold a total of 4 * 20 = <<4*20=80>>80 seeds. This will leave Oshea with 200 - 80 = <<200-80=120>>120 seeds remaining. This means he will need 120 / 4 = <<120/4=30>>30 small planters. The answer is 30.

Passage: The novel spans a period of 10 to 15 years and details the lives of Tom and Maggie Tulliver, siblings growing up at Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss at its junction with the more minor River Ripple near the village of St. Ogg's in Lincolnshire, England. Both the river and the village are fictional. The novel is most probably set in the 1820s – a number of historical references place the events in the book after the Napoleonic Wars but before the Reform Act of 1832. It includes autobiographical elements, and reflects the disgrace that George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) herself experienced while in a lengthy relationship with a married man, George Henry Lewes. Maggie Tulliver is the central character of the book. The story begins when she is 9 years old, 13 years into her parents' marriage. Her relationship with her older brother Tom, and her romantic relationships with Philip Wakem (a hunchbacked, sensitive, and intellectual friend) and with Stephen Guest (a vivacious young socialite in St. Ogg's and assumed fiancé of Maggie's cousin Lucy Deane) constitute the most significant narrative threads. Tom and Maggie have a close yet complex bond, which continues throughout the novel. Their relationship is coloured by Maggie's desire to recapture the unconditional love her father provides before his death. Tom's pragmatic and reserved nature clashes with Maggie's idealism and fervor for intellectual gains and experience. Various family crises, including bankruptcy, Mr. Tulliver's rancorous relationship with Philip Wakem's father, which results in the loss of the mill, and Mr. Tulliver's untimely death, serve both to intensify Tom's and Maggie's differences and to highlight their love for each other. To help his father repay his debts, Tom leaves school to enter a life of business. He eventually finds a measure of success, restoring the family's former estate. Meanwhile, Maggie languishes in the impoverished Tulliver home, her intellectual aptitude wasted in her socially isolated state. She passes through a period of intense spirituality, during which she renounces the world, spurred by Thomas à Kempis's The Imitation of Christ. This renunciation is tested by a renewed friendship with Philip Wakem, with whom she had developed a friendship while he and Tom were students together. Against the wishes of Tom and her father - who both despise the Wakems - Maggie secretly meets with Philip, and together they go for long walks through the woods. The relationship they forge is founded partially in Maggie's heartfelt pity for broken and neglected human beings, but it also serves as an outlet for her intellectual romantic desires. Philip's and Maggie's attraction is, in any case, inconsequential because of the family antipathy. Philip manages to coax a pledge of love from Maggie. When Tom discovers the relationship between the two, however, he forces his sister to renounce Philip, and with him her hopes of experiencing the broader, more cultured world he represents. Several more years pass, during which Mr. Tulliver dies. Lucy Deane invites Maggie to come and stay with her and experience the life of cultured leisure that she enjoys. This includes long hours conversing and playing music with Lucy's suitor, Stephen Guest, a prominent St. Ogg's resident. Stephen and Maggie, against their rational judgments, become attracted to each other. The complication is compounded by Philip Wakem's friendship with Lucy and Stephen; he and Maggie are reintroduced, and Philip's love for her is rekindled, while Maggie, no longer isolated, enjoys the clandestine attentions of Stephen Guest, putting her past profession of love for Philip in question. Lucy intrigues to throw Philip and Maggie together on a short rowing trip down the Floss, but Stephen unwittingly takes a sick Philip's place. When Maggie and Stephen find themselves floating down the river, negligent of the distance they have covered, he proposes that they board a passing boat to the next substantial city, Mudport, and get married. Maggie is too tired to argue about it. Stephen takes advantage of her weariness and hails the boat. They are taken on board the boat, and during the trip to Mudport, Maggie struggles between her love for Stephen and her duties to Philip and Lucy, which were established when she was poor, isolated, and dependent on them for what good her life contained. Upon arrival in Mudport she rejects Stephen and makes her way back to St. Ogg's, where she lives for a brief period as an outcast, Stephen having fled to Holland. Although she immediately goes to Tom for forgiveness and shelter, he roughly sends her away, telling her that she will never again be welcome under his roof. Both Lucy and Philip forgive her, in a moving reunion and in an eloquent letter, respectively. Maggie's brief exile ends when the river floods. The flood has been criticised as a deus ex machina. Those who do not support this view cite the frequent references to flood as foreshadowing, which makes this natural occurrence less contrived. Having struggled through the waters in a boat to find Tom at the old mill, she sets out with him to rescue Lucy Deane and her family. In a brief tender moment, the brother and sister are reconciled from all past differences. When their boat capsizes, the two drown in an embrace, thus giving the book its Biblical epigraph: "In their death they were not divided". Question: Maggie ends up conversing and playing music with Lucy Deane's suitor, who is this suitor? Answer:

Stephen Guest

Passage: Events take place in a fictional country called Laurania, located somewhere on the Mediterranean sea, which is similar to Italy or Spain, but with an overlay of Victorian England. Laurania has an African colony which can be reached via the Suez Canal. It has been a republic for many years, and has a well established constitution. Five years previously (stated to be in 1883) the country was split by a civil war, as a result of which General Antonio Molara became President and Dictator. Unrest has arisen because of Molara's refusal to restore parliamentary rule, and the final events of his dictatorship are described in the book. The story opens with a description of the capital and fast-moving political events there. Molara has bowed to popular pressure for elections, but intends to do so on the basis of a grossly amended electoral register. Savrola is seen as the leader of the revolutionaries, deciding what they are to do, and presiding over conflicting factions with differing aims. Despite the unrest, society still proceeds on the surface in a genteel course, with state balls and society events. Molara decides to ask his young and beautiful wife, Lucile, to attempt to seduce Savrola and discover anything she can about his plans. Unfortunately for him, Lucile finds herself attracted to Savrola and her loyalties become confused. Events move from political manoeuvring to street fighting when a rebel army invades Laurania. While Savrola knows about the army and intended invasion, he has poor control over it, so the invasion has started without his knowledge or proper preparations. Both sides scramble for a fight, as Molara finds the country's regular troops refuse to obey his orders. He is obliged to despatch most of the loyal Republican Guard from the capital to oppose the invaders, leaving him with a much reduced force to hold the capital. Fierce street fighting takes place in the capital between the revolutionaries of the Popular Party and the Republican Guard. The revolution culminates in the storming of the Presidential Palace and the death on the steps of his palace of General Molara. The revolutionary allies start to break apart in the face of a threat by the Lauranian navy (which remains loyal to the president), to bombard the city unless Savrola is handed over to them. The council of public safety decides the most expedient position would be to agree to this, but Savrola escapes attempts to arrest him and flees with Lucile. The city is subsequently bombarded when Savrola is not produced, and the last scene is of Savrola watching the destruction from outside the city. Question: Who threates to bombard the capital city unless Savrola is handed over to them? Answer:

The Royal Navy

A judge has ruled that a suspect's confession that he killed missing six-year-old Etan Patz in New York can be used at his murder trial. Pedro Hernandez, 53, has pleaded not guilty to murdering the boy, who disappeared while walking to his school bus stop in Manhattan in 1979, in a case that mystified police for decades. On Monday, Manhattan state Supreme Court Justice Maxwell Wiley ruled his taped confession from 2012 could be used in the case, finding that he was properly advised of his rights and capable of understanding them - although his attorney has insisted that Hernandez was mentally ill. It was only in 2012 that Hernandez, who had been a stock clerk at a store in Etan's neighborhood when the boy disappeared, emerged as a suspect. Pedro Hernandez, who admitted to killing Etan Patz in 1979 in a taped confession, appears in Manhattan criminal court with his attorney Harvey Fishbein in 2012 . Etan became one of the first missing children to be pictured on a milk carton, and the day he disappeared, May 25, became National Missing Children's Day. His body has never been found. After six hours of questioning, Hernandez confessed to the kidnapping on video, telling police he lured Etan to the store basement with the promise of a soda and then choked the boy. He described putting the six-year-old, who was still alive, into a plastic bag, then putting the bag inside a box and dumping it nearby. 'I was nervous; my legs were jumping,' Hernandez said. 'I wanted to let go, but I just couldn't let go. I felt like something just took over me. I don't know what to say. Something just took over me, and I was just choking him.' On the video, Hernandez is dressed in a brown jacket, white T-shirt and jeans, and sits at an empty desk save for a can of Pepsi. He talks about his family and his medical history - he is HIV-positive, suffers back problems and is bipolar. 1979 crime: Pedro Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the strangling death of Etan Patz, who was one of the first missing persons to be placed on a milk carton . He explains how he killed the child but doesn't remember what the boy was wearing, that Etan had a cap on when he vanished, or that the weather was bad that day. He says he tossed the boy's book bag behind a freezer; no bag was ever found. He does not remember the boy saying anything, and nothing in particular caught his attention that made him choose the boy, he says. 'I just approached to him or I asked him, you want a soda? I said come with me,' he said. 'He didn't say nothing to me. He didn't kick. He wasn't angry. He just kind of stood there, and I just felt bad what I did.' Hernandez's lawyer, Harvey Fishbein, argued his client falsely confessed and lacks the mental ability to understand his rights. He described Hernandez's demeanor on camera as exhausted from hours of questioning; Hernandez had been in custody nearly eight hours when the taping began. 'When those eight hours were finished, he was convinced he had something to do with the disappearance of Etan Patz,' Fishbein said. Unanswered questions: Etan's parents Stan (left) and Julie Patz. Both were in court the day the confession was heard in September, but Julie left the courtroom before the tape with played . The Manhattan district attorney's office says the confession was real and legally obtained. In 2012, police got a lead that brought them to Hernandez, a high school dropout who had worked at a corner store near where Etan disappeared. Hernandez, most recently a resident of Maple Shade, New Jersey, also told police that he confessed before: to his ex-wife, to a friend, and in front of about 15 people during a prayer circle at a church group. In the 1980s, Hernandez allegedly told the group that he had harmed a child in New York. Six-year-old Etan Patz disappeared while walking to his school bus stop in Manhattan in 1979 . 'We were all holding hands and praying,' he said of the church meeting. 'And everybody was confessing, so I confessed. I told them I killed a child.' But no one ever went to authorities and investigators have not pointed to any physical or scientific evidence against Hernandez. At about 70, Hernandez's IQ puts him in the bottom 2 per cent of the population, a defense psychological expert testified during a weeks-long hearing this fall. His lawyer has said Hernandez's medical records mention schizophrenia dating back years, he has taken anti-psychotic medication for years, and since his arrest, he has been diagnosed with schizotypal personality disorder. Its effects on him include 'cognitive and perceptual distortions,' including hallucinations, Fishbein has said. In one of the confessions, Hernandez says he has had visions of his dead mother. A defense psychologist told the court he believed Hernandez would not have fully comprehended what he was agreeing to in saying he understood his Miranda rights. But a prosecution expert differed, noting that Hernandez scored not much below people of average intelligence on a specific test of how well someone understands the function of the familiar Miranda rights warning during police interrogation. 'The evidence convincingly demonstrated that he knowingly waived those rights and voluntarily provided a statement,' Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon later wrote in a court filing. Hernandez had gone through 11th grade without special education or remedial summer school, represented himself in a prolonged divorce and child support proceeding, participated in his church, and successfully applied for Social Security disability benefits, the prosecutor noted. Etan's parents have not commented. Summarize this article.

Etan Patz disappeared while walking to his school bus stop in New York . In a taped confession, Pedro Hernandez, 53, said he kidnapped the boy . He told police he choked Etan after luring him to a basement with a soda . His lawyers say Hernandez lacks the mental ability to understand his rights . A judge had to decide not whether the confession was true, but whether it could be permitted to be used as evidence at Hernandez's murder trial .

A shooting at a VIP nightclub in an upscale Seattle suburb left one man dead and hundreds of parties - including reality star Aubrey O'Day and most of the Seattle Seahawks team - diving for cover. Police say a 19-year-old smuggled a handgun into the Munchbar club in Bellevue, Washington, and opened fire about 1am on Monday - killing a 30-year-old man and shooting a second man in the hand. The suspect, Ja'mari Jones, is on the run and considered armed and dangerous. Scroll down for video . Witness: Aubrey O'Day, 28, was partying with Seattle Seahawks players at Munchbar nightclub when the shooting began . Chaos: About 600 people were inside the nightclub at the time of the shooting -- they dove for cover as bullets flew through the bar . Being there: Miss O'Day posted this photo on Instagram, which shows police responding to the club after the shooting . He has already killed once before. Jones was convicted in 2009 of the high-profile, brutal beating death of 'the Tuba Man,' a beloved Seattle street musician. Because he was 16 at the time, he served less than 36 weeks in juvenile detention. Munchbar was packed with more than 600 people when the shooting began. Among the attendees were reality TV star and Playboy model Aubrey O'Day, who tweeted: 'Ok. I have never in my life. Supposedly someone was shooting n the club and we had to duck on the floor. Security pulled us out. Wtf?!' The former Danity Kane girl group singer had tweeted only moments earlier about dancing on tables at a VIP area with Seattle Seahawks players. O'Day was in town to support the San Francisco 49rs in their Sunday night game against the Seahawks. Troublesome: Police say they have previously been called to the club several times for fights and other disturbances . In the middle of it: Miss O'Day live-tweeted her experience fleeing the club . Victory celebration: The Seahawks players were reveling in their victory on Sunday night over the San Francisco 49ers . Wanted: Ja'mari Alexander Alan Jones, 19, is a convicted killer who is being sought in the shooting . 'Never been n a situation like that. Every1 was screaming on the floor, we had to crawl out the kitchen. Sea, someone tell me what happened?,' she tweeted. Several Seahawks players were reportedly in the club at the time celebrating their 42-13 win over the 49ers. Bellevue, a wealthy town ten miles east of Seattle that has had only one other murder in 2012, is home to many members of the NFL team. Head Coach Pete Carroll said in a news conference on Monday afternoon that no one associated with the Seahawks was involved in the shooting. 'From what we know, our guys were in a separate area, and nobody was involved at all,' he said. 'A very grave incident, but fortunately the guys that we are with are fine. They're OK. It's too bad. An awful thing that happened.' Police have not commented on the motive in the murder. They said the murdered man and Jones were seen arguing at the club before the shooting. The victim's name was not released and police said they aren't sure whether he was the intended target of the bullets. They do not know whether the two knew each other. A second man was shot in the hand and is expected to survive. 'He was not forthcoming with police,' spokeswoman Carla Iafrate told MailOnline. When the gunfire erupted, the club was a scene of chaos Ms Iafrate said. 'People just scattered and ducked and took cover, whatever they could do,' she said. Police have been called to the club several times for fights and other disturbances since it opened. Ms Iafrate said police plan to investigate how the 19-year-old got into the bar and how he managed to sneak a gun inside, as well. Starlet: Miss O'Day has posted for Playboy and appeared on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, The Wendy Williams Show and several seasons of MTV's Making the Band . Private party: The Seahawks in attendance on Monday morning were partying in a private VIP room and were not connected with the shooting, the coach said . Mess: Officers are still piecing together exactly what happened at the crowded nightclub on shortly after 1am . Summarize this article.

Ja'Mari Jones, 19, who was previously convicted of beating a popular street musician to death, is wanted for the killing .

Question: John and his two brothers decide to split the cost of an apartment. It is 40% more expensive than John's old apartment which costs $1200 per month. How much does John save per year by splitting the apartment compared to living alone? Answer:

His old apartment cost 1200*12=$<<1200*12=14400>>14,400 per year His new apartment 1200*1.4=$<<1200*1.4=1680>>1680 per month That means it cost 1680/3=$<<1680/3=560>>560 per month So it cost 560*12=$<<560*12=6720>>6720 So he saves 14400-6720=$<<14400-6720=7680>>7680 The answer is 7680.

By . Wills Robinson . PUBLISHED: . 07:04 EST, 4 November 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 11:06 EST, 4 November 2013 . A banking executive has resigned after his past as an abusive vicar who preyed on young boys was revealed. Former vicar Stephen Brooks, who was jailed for carrying out 19 sex attacks in Swansea, South Wales, during the 1980s and 1990s, quit his job as a director at Santander after the truth about his abusive background came to light. The 59-year-old preyed on young boys over a seven-year period while working as a clergyman at St Paul's Church in Sketty and was given a four-year prison sentence in 1994. Scroll down for video . Shamed: Stephen Brooks, pictured judging the 'responsible small business of the year award' resigned after he was exposed as a convicted paedophile . Eight of his victims are said to have suffered mental problems and one 38-year-old is said to have attempted suicide and turned to alcohol as a result. Santander told The Sun they were 'shocked' to learn of his criminal history and confirmed he had quit his role after taking 'immediate steps' to resolve the matter. Brooks moved to London to get away from the people he had abused and rose to become regional director of education, healthcare and communities at the bank. He was also given a very public role by the company and even judged the 'responsible small business of the year' award earlier this year. After being confronted about his past, he said: 'I deeply regret and apologise for the harm that I caused. Sickening: Brooks carried out the abuse while he was the vicar at St Paul's Church in Swansea, South Wales . Unaware: The bank said it was 'shocked' to learn of Brook's convictions and confirmed he had resigned once his past had been exposed . 'I moved far away from the people I hurt and I have spent 20 years trying to do good and no harm.' He also insisted that he went through the same vetting procedure as any other employee and received a Criminal Records Bureau check during the consultation process. A former friend said he had been a charming man, but a 'relentless abuser' who left many victims not wanting to press charges because of fears they may be shunned by the community. Child protection expert Mark Williams-Thomas said his appointment posed serious questions about Santander's recruitment process and condemned the company for giving him a public role. During his case at Swansea Crown Court 19 years ago, Patrick Griffiths, prosecuting, said Brooks was a ‘very well-liked man held in high regard and possessing considerable charisma.' 'His integrity was unquestioned and children found him friendly and approachable’, he added. Judge Martin Stephens said: 'You were destined for the highest position in the Church but you have caused immense harm and anguish.' Summarize this article.

The England rugby team will have the weight of the nation on their shoulders at the World Cup 2015 on home soil, but they will at least know that a herbal cocoon body wrap will be close to hand. With all things going to plan, the Stuart Lancaster-coached hosts could spend the preparations for all but one game at the World Cup - a group A match in Manchester - in their favoured headquarters at Pennyhill Park in Surrey. Chris Robshaw and his team-mates will be based at the Bagshot facility and have access to not just the expertly kept football pitch but The Spa, where whatever body or beauty treatment they could possibly desire will be found. Headquarters: Pennyhill Park in Surrey where England's rugby team will stay during the World Cup . Perfect preparation: Chris Robshaw and his England side will be at their preferred Bagshot resort . Winding down: After a tough day England will have access to a wide array of spa facilities . The hotel's adjoining spa offers a wide range of treatments including de-stress hot stone or vitality massages that could prove a godsend after a battering 80 minutes of action at Twickenham. And if they really want to feel special they could get a Man-i-cure, Pedicure for Men or a Gentleman’s Tonic facial. The football pitch is pristine, as discovered by the visiting NFL team the Oakland Raiders during their recent stay there before their match at Wembley. The gym is fully equipped for elite athletes with Technogym equipment, each with its own entertainment system, and a Junckers sprung exercise studio. There's also a wide range of classes such as pilates, yoga and aqua aerobics if they're up for some 'extras'. If it's outdoor relaxation that's required, the nine-hole golf course, pools and hot tubs should do the trick. Bespoke: No two bedrooms are the same but each has handcrafted mattresses and a pillow menu . Paddock to plate: Michael Wignall's The Latymer has two Michelin stars to its name . Deluxe: The pool at The Spa, the luxury facility Stuart Lancaster's side will have access to . Extra comfort: One of the bathroom designs, Silver Berch, has two free standing white volcanic limestone baths with a Champagne chiller between them and a large flat screen television recessed into the wall . Dining wise, haute cuisine may not be on the menu for the burly rugby players mid-tournament but it's on offer for the rest of us at two deluxe restaurants - two Michein-starred The Latymer, with chef Michael Wignall, and the more laid-back Brasserie. No worries about England's chargers not getting a good rest between matches either, with the five-star accommodation extending to hand-crafted mattresses and a pillow menu in each individually designed room. But there could be a worry of them becoming a little too precious with their underfloor heated bathrooms, oversized shower heads and side rain bars. The country mansion-styled Ascot Bar is perfect place for a tipple at the end of the day also. Though that will be largely off limits to the players until they have the William Webb Ellis trophy in their grasp. Winding down: An overview of The Spa in the evening at Pennyhill Park n Bagshot .

By . Hayley Peterson . Celeste Corcoran says she prayed for death as excruciating pain ripped through her body in the first chaotic seconds after the initial bomb went off at the Boston Marathon. But Celeste's husband, Kevin Corcoran, refused to let her go. He tore off his belt and wrapped it around one of her legs, making a tourniquet, then asked a stranger for his belt to stop the bleeding from her other leg. 'I just wanted to die,' Celeste, 47, recalled in an interview with Natalie Morales of NBC's Today Show. 'The thought was there because I was in so much pain. And then I just remember thinking - I can’t. I can’t. I don’t wanna leave my family... There’s still too much to do.' Scroll down for video . Hero: Kevin Corcoran, right, saved the life of his wife, second right, by tying his belt around her leg and using a stranger's belt on her other leg.

She had become separated from her parents in the blasts. Two strangers rushed to help her - one created a tourniquet around her injured leg that ended up saving her life while the other tried to keep her alert as the color drained from her face. 'From the moment I got in the ambulance I wanted to know where they were,' Sydney said of parents, her eyes welling with tears. 'I thought I was going to wake up and have no one left but my brother.' Celeste, who lost both her legs, and Sydney, who suffered severe nerve damage, are now recovering in the same hospital room. When they were reunited after the blasts, they said they couldn't stop crying. 'I couldnt get close enough to her,' Celeste said. Fears: Sydney Corcoran said she thought she was going to wake up afte surgery and find out that her parents were dead . Family: Sydney Corcoran and her mother Celeste comfort each other in their hospital beds . Comforting her daughter in this time of healing has been difficult because she feels physically limited, she said. 'Normally I'm hugging her and not being able to physically get up and go to her has been really hard,' she said. Sydney explained how the doctors prepared her for seeing her mother's injuries just before their reunion. 'Right before they brought her in they made sure they told me [about her injuries] so I wouldn't be in shock more than I already was,' she said. 'So I was a little prepared and honestly, the shock wasn't bad at all because I knew I at least had my mother.'

Sydney Corcoran meets with the man who kept her alert as she lost massive amounts of blood in the terrifying moments after the blasts . 'I wanted to find him and meet him and thank him,' she said. 'He was just holding my gaze the entire time, getting right up in my face, he kept calling me "buddy" and kept saying I would be okay and to stay with him and keep my eyes open. It was really difficult, just feeling so tired because all of the blood. My lips turned blue.' The man who saved her visited her in the hospital and she said it was a very emotional moment. 'The moment I saw him walk through that door and just, I just looked at him and I knew it was him, I just started crying, and he got teary-eyed and came over and hugged me and he was grabbing my hand.' Since the moments she prayed for death to relieve her pain, Celeste said she has adopted a much more positive outlook on her injuries. 'There's times when everything just kind of overwhelms you but... I know in my heart that I'm going to be okay,' Celeste said. 'As long as I'm strong enough or want it enough, I will have a different life, a different reality... you really have to dig down deep inside and just be like, "I can do this." It’s going to be hard, but I can do this.' Recovery: Both Sydney (right) and her mother Celeste (center) are still recovering . Looking up: Since the moments she prayed for death to relieve her pain, Celeste said she has adopted a much more positive outlook on her injuries .

(CNN) -- Thandi Zulu was single, pregnant and staying at a women's shelter in Houston, Texas, when she received a mysterious letter one day. Single mom Thandi Zulu says she was duped by a work-at-home scam. A company told Zulu that she could make big money working at home in a data-entry job. No résumé or experience was needed. All she had to do was pay a $200 fee. You probably know what happened next. Zulu called the company, gave them her checking account number and then tried to stop herself because she realized that she was doing something stupid. "The moment I did it, I said 'Damn, this is a scam,' " Zulu said of her 2001 nightmare. "I put them on hold, and then I tried to call them back, but nobody was home." Financial guru Bernard Madoff is grabbing headlines because he is accused of swindling wealthy clients out of $50 billion in a massive Ponzi scheme. But work-at-home scammers are also plundering the paltry savings of ordinary people like Zulu every day. Work-at-home-scams are on the rise, consumer watchdog groups say. Scammers are busier than ever because tough economic times are making people more desperate to make money, says Christine Durst, CEO of Staffcentrix, a company specializing in home-based careers that sifts through home-based job leads every day. iReport.com: Do you have a business at home? Tell us . Durst says people are searching more for home-based jobs to save money on gas, clothing and child care. Seniors are also looking to supplement their dwindling retirement income. Durst says Staffcentrix researchers screen about 5,000 home jobs leads every week, and there is a "54-to-1 scam ratio." "This means that for every 55 [work-at-home] leads we investigate, only one passes our legitimacy standards," she said. Work-at-home scammers have traditionally used letters, television commercials and magazine advertisements. But the Internet is becoming their favorite hunting ground, says Karen Hobbs, an attorney with the Federal Trade Commission, the federal agency responsible for consumer protection. "The Internet is a boon for this industry, because it's a very cheap method for reaching consumers across the U.S. and the world," Hobbs said. Catching work-at-home scammers is difficult because they use online facades and fake identities, and they constantly change names and mailing addresses, Hobbs says. Those who are caught, though, can face serious time. One work-at-home scammer was sentenced to 22 months in federal prison last year and ordered to pay $293,619 in restitution, Hobbs says. But many scammers often act as if they're too clever to get caught, Durst says. "We have over the years engaged in e-mails with them, and frankly, they're quite cocky," Durst said. "It's a craft for them. They really pride themselves on understanding the human psyche." Be wary of "palm trees, beaches and bikinis" A consumer's best defense against these clever predators is to develop their own guile, Durst says. First, they should learn how to spot the warning signs of a work-at-home scammer. Any advertisement that contains the phrase "work at home" is immediately suspect, because working at home is not a job title, Durst says. Scammers use that phrase to bait their victims. Other warning signs: You're required to pay a fee for additional information, promises of "unbelievable pay!" and claims that no experience is necessary or résumé is needed. Durst also says to watch out for "palm trees, mansions, beaches and bikinis." "If the ad you're looking at features palm trees, a mansion and a Ferrari, it's probably a scam. Successful scammers often bag their prey by dangling enticing things in front of them, much like kidnappers do: 'If you get into my car, I'll give you this candy bar,' " Durst said. There are other rules people should follow as well: Never forward any money to an "employer," never give personal information like a Social Security or bank account number over the Internet and never agree to cash checks for a percentage under any circumstances, consumer watchdog experts say. Those who think they've been scammed can still get help. They can contact the FTC (http://www.ftc.gov/), the Better Business Bureau or the attorney general's office in their state. Why do people still fall for them? Despite the publicity generated by work-at-home scammers, why do so many people still fall for the scams? Some consumer watchdog groups say it's too simplistic to say that people are gullible. For example, many of the people who say they lost money in Madoff's alleged Ponzi scheme were celebrity actors, writers, wealthy people -- people with abundant smarts. See some of the celebrities » . Hobbs, from the FTC, says work-at-home scams appeal to that can-do spirit in Americans. "Americans have an entrepreneurial sprit," she said. "Many people will want to work independently, and they're looking for those opportunities, especially in hard times." Durst, the CEO of Staffcentrix, cites another reason. "It's desperation," she said. "It's the same reason people play the lottery: They think today could be their lucky day." Zulu, the single mom, subscribes to Durst's theory. "I didn't pay attention," she said. "When you're desperate and you're looking for something, you just go ahead. I was pregnant, and I didn't have a job. I wanted to work at home." Zulu says she finally found a legitimate job. She moved to Laurel, Mississippi, and now sells medical and dental plans through a company called Ameriplan USA. She even calls people and tells them that they can sell Ameriplan from their own homes. But sometimes she runs into an unexpected problem. "They don't believe me," she said. "People think we're scammers." Summarize this article.
