Question: What's the best career advise you could give a new graduate entering into a technical or analytics field? Answer: A key feature of any technical or analytics job is that you will be constantly challenged with new trying something new. You will need to learn to learn, i.e. to teach yourself new techniques and new technology, and to have the courage to apply these things to complex challenges where it's not always clear that you have the right answer (and where very few if any people can fully validate your work). For many people, the uncertainty and risk of failure associated with these situations tends to push them towards safe and known opportunities with well-tread paths for them to follow. If you crave a fulfilling career, have the courage to pursue the paths less traveled, acknowledge and learn from your failures and surround yourself with others similarly willing to stretch and grow. You will find such choices lead to a more satisfying career over the longer term.

On March 15, in a signed written contract, a manufacturer agreed to sell 40,000 pens at $1 each to a retailer, delivery to be made in two equal installments on April 1 and May 1. The contract was silent as to the time of payment, but on March 25 the two parties orally agreed that the entire purchase price was to be paid on delivery of the second installment. On April 1, the manufacturer delivered 20,000 pens, and the retailer accepted them. The manufacturer then demanded payment of $20,000. When the retailer refused to make the payment, the manufacturer sued the retailer for breach of contract. In its defense, the retailer proffered evidence of the March 25 oral agreement. Is the manufacturer likely to succeed in its action? A. No, because even though the March 25 oral agreement is not effective, payment is due at the time of the second installment. B. No, because the March 25 oral agreement was an effective modification of the written contract. C. Yes, because the parol evidence rule bars the introduction of evidence of an oral agreement modifying a written contract. D. Yes, because there was no consideration to support the modification. Answer: B. No, because the March 25 oral agreement was an effective modification of the written contract.

Q: My son doesn't want to share anything with other kids, and if some kid even so much as touches his toy, he pushes the kid. He shouts and cries at the same time, and tries to express his anger by pushing and hitting the kid. I feel so embarrassed in front of other parents. And when he is at home with me and doing something wrong, I try to stop him, he tries to repeat my words and shouts at me. He is copying the behavior of others, whether it's a good act or bad... Please help me how to stop him from being a bully. A: Welcome to the "Terrible Two's"! Your son behaves typically for his age. At 2 he starts to assert himself and express his demands. It's likely that he has also learned that he gets his way when he throws a tantrum. For a 2-year old screaming, hitting or even biting is a normal way to express his anger - at least he will try and every success reinforces this. He also comes across more limitations: The more he is able to do, the more often he is stopped. The solution? It's already in your question: He will copy what others do. So by all means, stay calm. No yelling, no fussing and - please! - no hitting. He has some learning (accepted behaviour like sharing) and some unlearning (no hitting or pushing) to do and needs your help. * When he throws a tantrum, either ignore him, or quietly remove him from the scene. Do not worry about others! Most likely they have had the same trouble with their kids or will some time ;-) * When he doesn't want to share yet - fine, he will learn. This can be practiced. Don't make him share, or he will resent it. Rather, teach him the benefits of sharing. Start with food, for example. Have a plate of cookies (or other favorite food), that's yours. He will likely demand some, but demanding doesn't get him a cookie. Asking nicely will! Explain, repeat. Then, switch roles. If he has cookies, ask him to share. If he does, praise him. Else - remind him next time when he wants your cookies that he didn't share. Share whenever possible: Having a bite from your plate, getting a piece off his. Repeat, repeat, repeat.... Same goes for objects. Ask him to "please" share a toy, "play" with it for a short moment, then return. Say "Thank you". He learns, that he gets the toy back. Share some of your things. (Monitor the behaviour of other children, that want his toys - make sure they ask first and give toys back, at least during this learning stage.) You have some serious work to do, but it will be sooooo worth it!

Question: Bella has two times as many marbles as frisbees. She also has 20 more frisbees than deck cards. If she buys 2/5 times more of each item, what would be the total number of the items she will have if she currently has 60 marbles? Answer: When Bella buys 2/5 times more marbles, she'll have increased the number of marbles by 2/5*60 = <<2/5*60=24>>24 The total number of marbles she'll have is 60+24 = <<60+24=84>>84 If Bella currently has 60 marbles, and she has two times as many marbles as frisbees, she has 60/2 = <<60/2=30>>30 frisbees. If Bella buys 2/5 times more frisbees, she'll have 2/5*30 = <<2/5*30=12>>12 more frisbees. The total number of frisbees she'll have will increase to 30+12 = <<30+12=42>>42 Bella also has 20 more frisbees than deck cards, meaning she has 30-20 = <<20-10=10>>10 deck cards If she buys 2/5 times more deck cards, she'll have 2/5*10 = <<2/5*10=4>>4 more deck cards. The total number of deck cards she'll have is 10+4 = <<10+4=14>>14 Together, Bella will have a total of 14+42+84 = <<14+42+84=140>>140 items The answer is 140.

Question: The number of soldiers on opposite sides of a war each needs 10 pounds of food every day to continue fighting effectively. However, soldiers in the second are each given 2 pounds less food than the first side. If the first side has 4000 soldiers and the other side 500 soldiers fewer than the first side, what's the total amount of pounds of food both sides are eating altogether every day? Answer: The first side with 4000 soldiers is eating 4000*10 = <<4000*10=40000>>40000 pounds of food every day. Since the other side has 500 soldiers fewer than the first side, there are 4000-500 = <<4000-500=3500>>3500 soldiers on the second side. Soldiers on the second side are each given 10-2 = <<10-2=8>>8 pounds of food. The total amount of food the second side eats is 8*3500 = <<8*3500=28000>>28000 Altogether, the two sides eat 28000+40000 = <<28000+40000=68000>>68000 pounds of food every day. The answer is 68000.
Traffic flowed again Monday on the Golden Gate Bridge, after a weekend closure to install a safety barrier designed to reduce dangers of head-on crashes. The bridge reopened at 9:30 p.m. Sunday, more than six hours ahead of schedule, said Priya Clemens, a spokeswoman for the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District. For the longest period in its nearly 80-year history, the bridge was closed early Saturday to all but pedestrians, cyclists and buses to install the barriers on the 1.7-mile-long bridge. Previously, only yellow plastic tubes offered protection from opposing traffic. Since 1970, there have been 128 head-on collisions on the bridge - resulting in 16 deaths, according to Clemens.

Bridge officials said early Monday that traffic was moving over the bridge with no problems . Bridge officials said early Monday that traffic was moving over the bridge with no problems. A survivor of a 2008 head-on crash on the bridge spoke earlier Sunday from her wheelchair to help inaugurate the new barrier, made of steel-clad concrete blocks that can move across the span's six lanes to accommodate traffic demands. Dr. Grace Dammann, who pushed for a safer median barrier since becoming paralyzed from the crash, said she decided to drive in the 'suicide lane' because she and her daughter were running late. Brian Clark, who was driving in the opposite direction, had just learned his father had terminal cancer. 'He passed out at the wheel, crossed over and hit my car,' Dammann recalled. She said she and Clark became friends as they urged the district to approve the $30 million barrier. 'I am so grateful,' said Dammann, who came to the ribbon-cutting ceremony with Clark. 'Brian and I thank you.' The suspension bridge opened in 1937, and previously has closed only for shorter periods, including for celebrations and work projects. Ahead of her speech, Damman told The New York Times 'Life turns on a dime. And if we can make it a gentler landing for people, that’s good. That’s my prayer.' The bridge's closing caused problems for some weddings and birthday parties, as well as businesses, the newspaper reported. 'Having this barrier here — you hate to say never — but it prevents head-on collisions,' bridge manager Kary Witt told SFGate ahead of the ribbon-cutting completed by Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco). The website explained that the 'suicide lane' is the lane closest to the left, and that Zipper Trucks will shuffle the barrier around as needed. The barrier measures 11,500 feet in length and features 3,517 pieces, SFGate reported. Rep. Speier (D-San Mateo) was quoted by the website as saying 'You can’t prevent all automobile accidents, but you can prevent head-on automobile accidents and serious injuries and deaths on the Golden Gate Bridge. This barrier is really about public health.'

Why did my cookies turn out flat? Answer: Many factors contribute to a flat cookie. The biggest one tends to be the temperature of the butter when the ingredients are mixed together. If you want a taller, more dense cookie, it is recommended you use cold butter. The best way to do this is to take your sticks of butter and cut it into cubes or slices. Then your mixer will have an easier time incorporating the butter into the sugars and other ingredients. Melted butter will definitely result in a thinner more flat cookie.

Question: There were students from three different schools taking part in a debate organized by the town's mayor on a stage. The first school had twice as many students as the second school, and the second school had 40 more students than the third school. If the third school had 200 students, and after the debate was over, every student shook the mayor's hand, calculate the total number of students who shook the mayor's hand on the stage. Answer: If the third school had 200 students, and the second school had 40 more students than the third school, the second school had 200+40 = <<200+40=240>>240 students. The third and second schools had 240+200 = <<240+200=440>>440 students on stage taking part in the debate. Since the first school had twice as many students as the second school, and the second school had 240 students, the first school had 240*2= <<240*2=480>>480 students on stage taking part in the debate. If after the debate was over, every student at the stage shook the mayor's hand, the number of students who shook the mayor's hand is 480+440 = <<480+440=920>>920 students The answer is 920.

Q: How to help an older dog grieve the loss of its owner? A: ## Comfort the dog 1. Spend extra time with the dog. A dog in mourning may need extra love and attention. Try to increase the amount of time you spend with the dog. You might spend twenty extra minutes in the morning and evening to help give the dog support while they are grieving the death of their owner. During this time, you can: * Talk to the dog * Walk the dog * * Groom the dog * * Go on a car ride * Visit the dog park * Pick out a new toy together at the pet store * Cuddle the dog on the couch or in bed * Take the dog for a run, if the dog is healthy enough * Play a game, like fetch or tug-of-war 2. Pet the dog. Touch increases the bond between dogs and people. Extra cuddling, petting, and brushing can improve the dog’s mood and distract them from the loss of their owner. As you spend time with the dog, rub their belly or scratch their ears. Give them a little extra grooming time each week. This will help you bond and comfort the dog. 3. Play their favorite games. Playtime can distract the dog from the loss of their owner. The extra exercise can also boost their mood and decrease the likelihood of grief-related health issues. Try to identify the dog’s favorite games or toys, and spend extra time playing with them. Some older dogs may not want to play as much. Each dog is different. If the dog is uninterested in playing, you might try another way of distracting them. You can also give the dog new and interesting toys. Food puzzle toys can help keep the dog busy while you are not home, reducing the dog’s separation anxiety. 4. Invite company over. The dog may appreciate having people over to spend time with. Invite a few friends over, and see how the dog reacts. If the dog enjoys the company and socializes with the people, you may want to keep it up. If the dog avoids your guests, you should respect their space. Inviting people or dogs that the dog already knows may cheer the dog up. It can also introduce an element of familiarity in their new life. If the people are total strangers to the dog, invite one or two over at a time to see how well the dog handles it. ## Monitor the dog’s health 1. Identify physical symptoms of mourning. Dogs mourn differently from humans. While some dogs may not mourn at all, others will become extremely clingy, anxious, or lethargic. Keep an eye out for the following symptoms. If they do not disappear after a few days, you might consider seeking help from a vet or dog behaviorist. Lethargy or lack of energy. Lack of interest in playing * Loss of appetite * * Unsociable behavior * Increased sleeping * * Weight loss * Decline in physical health 2. Encourage the dog to eat. It is very common for older dogs to stop eating after the loss of their owner. This can cause other health issues to develop. If the dog seems to have stopped eating, you should try to get the dog to eat. If possible, keep feeding the dog the same food that the old owner fed them. You can also give the dog kibble in a kong-type dog toy or food puzzle. The dog may enjoy trying to get the food out of the toy. Add a little warm chicken broth to the dog’s dry food to make it softer and more enticing. While a few extra treats here and there may not be detrimental to your dog, you should avoid giving the dog too many treats during this period. They may learn that they will be rewarded for whining, and they may not eat their normal food. 3. Take the dog on walks. Older dogs may not be extremely active to begin with, but they may become more lethargic after the loss of their owner. Such inactivity can lead to further health problems. If the dog is able, take them on a walk at least once or twice a day. Depending on the age and health of the dog, these may be short walks. You can make even short walks more mentally stimulating for the dog by walking in areas with lots of interesting sights, sounds, and smells. For example, you might take your dog to the park, through the woods, or some place with water. 4. Take the dog to the vet. If the dog continues to mourn for several weeks or if the dog is not eating, you should visit the vet to make sure that the dog is still in good health. The vet can diagnose an underlying medical problem or prescribe medication to help with the dog's anxiety or depression. While at the vet, you might ask: * "What medical issues does this dog have? Can any of them be aggravated by the loss of their owner?" "The dog seems really depressed. What can I do to help?" "The dog has been sleeping a lot since I took them in. Is this because the dog is depressed or is there another issue?" "The dog has not been eating since their owner died. What can I do to encourage them to eat?" If you know which vet the dog's old owner used, you should take them there. The vet can inform you of the dog's medical history. ## Provide a happy home 1. Maintain a routine. For the first few days after the owner has died, it is important to maintain the dog’s routine as much as possible. Older dogs tend not to do well with new habits, schedules, or activities, and the owner’s death may have already disrupted their life. Try to feed and walk the dog at the same times as the old owner did. If you can, reach out to people who knew the dog when it was with the old owner, and see if they have an idea of what the dog’s former routine was like. If you do not know what schedule the old owner kept, you can develop a new schedule for the dog. Keep a consistent routine for the first few weeks that the dog joins you. The dog may also prompt you when they expect to be fed or taken outside. If there has been upheaval in the dog’s life since the owner died (for example, if the dog has been passed around by family members or if you adopted the dog from a shelter), setting a routine will be even more important for the dog. Make sure that you stick to the schedule to help the dog ease into their new home life. Be careful not to let the dog fall into bad habits due to grief. For example, if the dog turns up its nose at food, just let the food sit there until the dog is ready to eat it. Don’t “reward” the behavior by making a fuss. 2. Take care of your own grief. If you knew the old owner, you may be grieving yourself. This is understandable. Do what you have to so that you can grieve in your own, personal way. This will in turn help the dog by providing a loving, happy home for them. Avoid mourning in front of the dog. Dogs are very sensitive to grief, and they may exhibit signs of mourning if they understand that you are grieving. While it is okay to cry a little in front of the dog, you may want to step into another room to mourn privately. 3. Reinforce positive behavior. During this time, you may notice that the dog is whining, crying, or acting out. While you may want to give the dog a treat during these episodes, you should avoid rewarding them for this behavior. The dog may learn that they will earn treats if they whine. Instead, reward the dog when they are being good, such as when they are quietly resting. For example, you may notice that the dog is sitting outside of your bedroom door at night and whining. Instead of waking up to comfort the dog, go back to sleep. In the morning, you can pet and talk to the dog. If they are well-behaved, give them a treat with their breakfast. Good times to treat the dog are when the dog is resting quietly, when the dog is sitting with you, or right before you leave the house. 4. Weigh the pros and cons of getting a new dog. While a new dog companion might provide company for the dog, many older dogs do not do well with a new younger dog in the house. While some older dogs may enjoy having a puppy around, others may snap at the younger dog or bully them. Consider carefully whether a new dog is appropriate for the older dog. Also keep in mind that bringing in a new companion for the dog will not make them miss their old owner any less. If a friend or family member has a puppy, ask if they can be introduced to your older dog. This will show you how well the dog deals with energetic puppies. If the older dog plays, cuddles, or gets along with the puppy, you might consider getting a younger dog. Try taking the dog to a dog park when it’s not too crowded, and see if the dog seems to enjoy being around other dogs. If so, then you might consider bringing home a new dog. Another option is to adopt an older or senior dog. Try to find one with a similar temperament. See if the dogs can meet first before you adopt to see if they are friendly with one another.
Peering over the wall at the bottom of his garden, John Marsden received an education in the art of being a striker that money cannot buy. When Southport head to Derby County, aiming to strike another blow for non-League sides in the FA Cup, Marsden will think back to the days when he studied Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen, and later Fernando Torres and Luis Suarez. Marsden’s family home in West Derby backs on to Liverpool’s training ground but of the current forwards he monitors, it is Rickie Lambert who is a continued source of inspiration for a young man who holds a record for scoring hat-tricks for Liverpool schoolboys that even Fowler cannot match. VIDEO Scroll down to see one of Marsden's ex-Liverpool heroes score in training . Southport striker John Marsden has revealed he used to peer over the wall at the bottom of his garden . Marsden's family home backs on to Liverpool's Melwood training ground . Michael Owen and Robbie Fowler were among the players Marsden used to study . This has been a season illuminated by strikers such as Charlie Austin and Jamie Vardy, who have battled their way from the lower leagues to thrive in the top flight. Lambert’s route was similarly unconventional. Marsden is a ‘mad Liverpudlian’ and his dream in this season’s FA Cup is to get through today’s challenge before locking horns at Anfield against his boyhood heroes. ‘We have got a shed at the back of the house, so I used to climb on top of it and watch them train,’ says the 22-year-old. ‘Me and my sister, Charlotte, would get autographs most days and speak to the players. Robbie was my hero and I’ve still got his shirt on my wall.’ Had Marsden’s career gone as he envisaged, he would be playing for Celtic. He was scouted by the late Tommy Burns as a schoolboy and his logic was that going to Scotland would increase his chances of playing in the Champions League. Marsden also used to watch former Liverpool strikers Fernando Torres and Luis Suarez from his garden . But a broken foot, sustained in a freak schoolyard accident, damaged his ambitions and after leaving Celtic, he had spells with Rochdale, non-League side Stockport Sports, Stoke’s Under 21s and Shrewsbury before ending up with Southport. ‘I was in school and slipped on the wet floor and cracked my bone right through, just coming down a couple of steps,’ he says. ‘I played for Celtic’s reserves, trained with the first team but never got to the level I wanted. It was devastating but that happens in football, doesn’t it?’ Fairytales, however, also happen and Marsden added: ‘I think people like seeing non-League clubs have a bit of a run. ‘We all watched Warrington beat Exeter and we were buzzing. Then you see Blyth and that’s a great story. We’d love one of our own.’ Summarize this article. John Marsden's family home backs on to Liverpool's training ground . The 22-year-old will be hoping his side can eliminate Derby County . Liverpool fan Marsden used to idolise Robbie Fowler .
Question: What hikes in the White Mountains are the most dangerous? Answer: The degree of danger associated with any hike is subjective based on the hiker's general hiking experience, physical fitness, safety training and familiarity with the trails and terrain in the region. Many hikes are considered dangerous due to their steep pitches and exposure to the elements, while others can be considered dangerous due to less activity and poor trail blazing, such as bushwhacks. Other factors such as inclement weather can dramatically increase the danger of even a moderate hike. Proper preparedness, familiarity of the trails, understanding of incoming weather patterns and communicating your plans and timing to another person helps reduce risk in hiking the White Mountains, but one always assumes some degree of risk. A simple sprained ankle can mean life or death in bad weather, as the White Mountains, and notably the Presidential Range and Mount Washington, are notorious for life-threatening weather. Combined with very exposed routes and lack of safety equipment, even the most experienced hikers have fallen victim to the White Mountains. For experienced hikers seeking more adventurous routes, one might refer to the popular list "The Terrifying 25" which provides a list of routes that have steep inclines, a lot of exposure, fun ladders and caves, among other features. Huntington Ravine on Mount Washington is considered the most dangerous in all the Whites for its erratic weather, steep, exposed trails with drop-offs, and less traveled by other hikers.

Passage: A mysterious man, Griffin, arrives at the local inn of the English village of Iping, West Sussex, during a snowstorm. The stranger wears a long-sleeved, thick coat and gloves; his face is hidden entirely by bandages except for a fake pink nose; and he wears a wide-brimmed hat. He is excessively reclusive, irascible, and unfriendly. He demands to be left alone and spends most of his time in his rooms working with a set of chemicals and laboratory apparatus, only venturing out at night. While Griffin is staying at the inn, hundreds of strange glass bottles (that he calls his luggage) arrive. Many local townspeople believe this to be very strange. He becomes the talk of the village. Meanwhile, a mysterious burglary occurs in the village. Griffin has run out of money and is trying to find a way to pay for his board and lodging. When his landlady demands that he pay his bill and quit the premises, he reveals part of his invisibility to her in a fit of pique. An attempt to apprehend the stranger is frustrated when he undresses to take advantage of his invisibility, fights off his would-be captors, and flees to the downs. There Griffin coerces a tramp, Thomas Marvel, into becoming his assistant. With Marvel, he returns to the village to recover three notebooks that contain records of his experiments. When Marvel attempts to betray the Invisible Man to the police, Griffin chases him to the seaside town of Port Burdock, threatening to kill him. Marvel escapes to a local inn and is saved by the people at the inn, but Griffin escapes. Marvel later goes to the police and tells them of this "invisible man," then requests to be locked up in a high-security jail. Griffin's furious attempt to avenge his betrayal leads to his being shot. He takes shelter in a nearby house that turns out to belong to Dr. Kemp, a former acquaintance from medical school. To Kemp, he reveals his true identity: the Invisible Man is Griffin, a former medical student who left medicine to devote himself to optics. Griffin recounts how he invented chemicals capable of rendering bodies invisible, and, on impulse, performed the procedure on himself. Griffin tells Kemp of the story of how he became invisible. He explains how he tried the invisibility on a cat, then himself. Griffin burned down the boarding house he was staying in, along with all the equipment he used to turn invisible, to cover his tracks; but he soon realised that he was ill-equipped to survive in the open. He attempted to steal food and clothes from a large department store, and eventually stole some clothing from a theatrical supply shop and headed to Iping to attempt to reverse the invisibility. Now he imagines that he can make Kemp his secret confederate, describing his plan to begin a "Reign of Terror" by using his invisibility to terrorise the nation. Kemp has already denounced Griffin to the local authorities and is waiting for help to arrive as he listens to this wild proposal. When the authorities arrive at Kemp's house, Griffin fights his way out and the next day leaves a note announcing that Kemp himself will be the first man to be killed in the "Reign of Terror". Kemp, a cool-headed character, tries to organise a plan to use himself as bait to trap the Invisible Man, but a note that he sends is stolen from his servant by Griffin. Griffin uses Kemp's gun to shoot and injure a local policeman who comes to Kemp's aid, then breaks into Kemp's house. Kemp bolts for the town, where the local citizenry come to his aid. Griffin is seized, assaulted, and killed by a mob. The Invisible Man's naked, battered body gradually becomes visible as he dies. A local policeman shouts to have someone cover Griffin's face with a sheet, then the book concludes. In the final chapter, it is revealed that Marvel has secretly kept Griffin's notes but is completely incapable of understanding them. Question: How did Griffin test his invisibility chemicals? Answer: He used them on a cat before using them on himself.
Passage: Techotl pointed to a black column of ebony which stood behind the dais. Hundreds of red dots scarred its polished surface — the bright scarlet heads of heavy copper nails driven into the black wood. "Five red nails for five Xotalanca lives!" exulted Techotl, and the horrible exultation in the faces of the listeners made them inhuman. — Robert E. Howard, "Red Nails" "Red Nails" begins in the jungles far to the south of any known civilized or barbarian lands, where Valeria of the Red Brotherhood and Conan (her would-be lover) are set upon by a "dragon" (actually a dinosaur, though described with the characteristics of a stegosaurus and an allosaur) that mauls their horses. The pair retreat to a crag the monster cannot scale, but has no food or water. Conan recognizes some poisonous fruit growing nearby; they coat the tip of a spear with its juice, and pierce the jaws of the monster with it. Although blinded, the raging monster pursues them by their scent. Overtaken, Conan whirls to face the beast and lures it to its death. Conan and Valeria emerge from the jungle to make their way to a walled city they spotted from the crag. Finding no grazing herds or cultivated fields around the city, they assume it is deserted. They force the rusted gates and enter a bizarre twilight world: the city is a single massive structure made of jade with traces of other materials, consists entirely of four tiers of rooms, chambers and passageways. A single great hallway runs the length of the city, but there are no other streets or open courtyards. The pair separate to search the city. Valeria encounters a man named Techotl whom she saves from his would-be killer; Conan arrives in time to save them from his comrades. Techotl invites Conan and Valeria into the stronghold of his people, the Tecuhltli, where they welcomed by the rulers, Olmec and Tascela. In the stronghold Conan and Valeria learn that the city of Xuchotil was built long before its current inhabitants arrived. The people who created the city had used magic to resurrect "dragons" (actually the jumbled skeletons of dinosaurs) to protect the city. One day, a slave named Tolkemec betrayed his masters to guide a band led by the brothers Tecuhltli and Xotalanc into the city which slaughtered the original inhabitants. The conquerors afterwards ruled the city in peace until Tecuhltli stole the bride of his brother, leading to a feud in which most of the conquerors are killed. Tolkemec played both sides for his own purposes before he was exiled to the catacombs and assumed to have died there. Nails driven into pillar in their stronghold keeps count of how many of their enemy they have slain, and provides the title of the story. The arrival of Conan and Valeria precipitates the final showdown in the decades-long feud. Members of the Xotalanc clan manage to break into the Tecuhltli stronghold, but they are outnumbered. With the the help of the formidable fighters Conan and Valeria, the Tecuhltli win the grim battle, and the Xotalanc are all killed. Olmec is exultant at this final victory, though sorry that none of his enemies was taken alive to be slowly tortured to death - as both sides to the conflict regularly did to prisoners. However, his gratitude to his two allies is definitely short-lived. Having no intention of letting Conan and Valeria leave the city, Olmec secretly orders his men to kill Conan. While Olmec attempts to force himself on Valeria, he is thwarted by Tascela who imprisons him. She is revealed to be a sorceress and bride whose kidnapping started the feud. Tascela plans to use Valeria's vitality to restore her youth. After killing off his assassins, Conan returns to Tecuhltli, reluctantly frees Olmec, only to kill him when Olmec proves untrustworthy. Conan finds the chamber where Tascela has bound Valeria to an altar, but is caught in a steel trap helpless to save Valeria. At this point Tolkemec enters the chamber, having become a wild man during his exile in the catacombs, and uses a magical wand to kill Tascela's followers. Desperate for assistance, Tascela frees Conan. Conan defeats Tolkemec while Valeria frees herself and kills Tascela with a dagger thrust to the heart. With the last inhabitants of Xuchotl slain, Conan and Valeria depart the dead city. Question: What creature did the people who created the city resurrect with magic? Answer: dragons or assembled bones of dinosaurs
Question: Nick's cell phone was initially empty but was then charged for 45 minutes and has reached a 25% charge. How much longer must the cell phone be charged to reach 100% charge? Answer: The ratio between the time charged and the time to be charged is 100 / 25 = <<100/25=4>>4. To reach 100%, the cell must be charged for 45 minutes * 4 = <<45*4=180>>180 minutes. Subtracting the 45 minutes that Jimmy already used to charge the cell phone, there are still 180 - 45 =<<180-45=135>>135 minutes of charging time left. The answer is 135.
Question: Tell me about orienteering Answer: Orienteering is a sport enjoyed by athletes across the world. Participants are given a map, on which a series of checkpoints are marked. The goal is to visit each checkpoint in the specified order as quickly as possible. The most successful orienteers are both physically fit and are able to read a map to a high degree of accuracy. The sport is particularly popular in Scandinavia, where its vast forests serve as ideal locations for orienteering courses.
England are less than 12 months away from a home World Cup but have just lost four Tests on the trot to New Zealand and one to South Africa. The game with Australia on Saturday week is now ‘must-win’. But do the southern-hemisphere nations agree that England are in crisis? NIK SIMON asked three legends… . MICHAEL LYNAGH (72-cap Australia fly half, 1991 Rugby World Cup winner) Michael Lynagh won the 1991 World Cup . It’s not time to press the panic button just yet but there was not a lot of creativity in England’s play at the weekend. That played into South Africa’s hands because they’re a physical side that love people running straight at them. Owen Farrell hasn’t played a lot of rugby this season and it’s not an easy task to find your feet against New Zealand and the Springboks. Maybe he wasn’t quite ready. I think there’s an option to have George Ford come in at No 10, with Owen at 12. It gives you more options with kicking and also two ball-players that can stand either side of the ruck. Defensively Owen is very strong at inside centre and he’s used to playing alongside Brad Barritt, who has been at 13. Maybe it’s time for Ben Youngs to have a go at scrum half against Samoa and show us what he’s got, but the most important thing is getting a win over Australia. Owen Farrell has been criticised for his displays against New Zealand and South Africa . The Saracens fly half could be moved to inside centre, but seems unlikely to start the next game at 10 . SEAN FITZPATRICK (92-cap former All Blacks skipper) Sean Fitzpatrick is a legendary All Black . England are going through a building phase but they will be disappointed with the performance against South Africa. They should be a bit harder on themselves but, in the context of where they were three years ago, they have made huge strides. As fans here we want England to win and the nice thing is now people are expecting them to win. Injuries have not helped their cause and South Africa at Twickenham is a game they would have targeted as a win. The fact that southern-hemisphere players are being contracted to their union also certainly helps, especially in the autumn. It makes them almost like a club team. That’s where the northern hemisphere are going to struggle against the southern hemisphere. Perhaps the RFU should look to buy out the clubs. George Ford, who came on in both games, could start for England in the next fixture against Samoa . THINUS DELPORT (Former South Africa and Gloucester full back) Thinus Delport played 18 times for South Africa . The guys all looked very nervous at Twickenham and England must learn to handle the pressure and expectation that will come over the next 12 months. South Africa had less possession and territory in the first half but capitalised on ill-discipline and unforced errors — a lot of that is down to pressure and in particular the decision-making at 9, 10 and 12. Unfortunately pressure is building on the England set-up from all angles. How they handle that will be crucial to their chances of winning the World Cup. They can go out for a beer, but if they get caught out by the media and then the result doesn’t go their way, then it becomes the wrong thing to do. But it can swing both ways and England have to find that balance between focus and relaxation very quickly. England could call on Ben Youngs to help break the malaise in the half-back positions . The Autumn Internationals on Sky Sports are part of an unrivalled schedule of rugby union with over 360 matches from the international, European and domestic game. Summarize this article. England suffered defeats to New Zealand and South Africa . Stuart Lancaster's team face Samoa next weekend . Michael Lynagh, Sean Fitzpatrick and Thinus Delport give their views .
Passage: A Frenchman named Marcelo Desonyers travels to Argentina in 1870, and he marries the elder daughter of Julio Madariaga, the owner of a ranch. Eventually Marcelo, his wife, and his children Julio and Chichi move back to France and live in a mansion in Paris. Julio turns out to be a spoiled, lazy young man who avoids commitments and flirts with a married woman named Marguerite Laurier. Meanwhile, Madariaga's younger daughter has married a German man named Karl Hartrott, and the Hartrotts move back to Germany. The Desnoyers family and the Hartrott family are thus set against each other with the onset of World War I. However, Julio Desnoyers initially shows no interest in the war, while Hartrott's family eagerly supports the German cause. It is only after Julio's lover, Marguerite, lavishes attention upon her husband after the latter is wounded in battle, that Julio is moved to participate in the war. While young Julio Desnoyers serves as a soldier, the aging Marcelo Desnoyers leaves the shelter and returns to his mansion, where he watches the German soldiers advance and eventually plunder his belongings and eat his food. At last the French soldiers push back the German soldiers, and Marcelo chooses to defend a German man who had earlier spared Marcelo's life. Julio Desnoyers returns to his family, wounded in a battle but praised for his valour, and he quickly sets out again to continue fighting. At the close of the war, Julio is killed in battle. The novel ends with Marcelo at his son's grave, regretting that if his daughter, Chichi, has any children, they will not bear the name "Desnoyers." Marcelo finds that Hartrott, too, has lost a son in the war. Question: Why does Marcelo choose to defend a German soldier? Answer: Because the German soldier had earlier spared his life.

Question: What is a fixed-rate mortgage (FRM)? Answer: A fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) is a mortgage loan where the interest rate on the note remains the same through the term of the loan, as opposed to loans where the interest rate may adjust or "float". As a result, payment amounts and the duration of the loan are fixed and the person who is responsible for paying back the loan benefits from a consistent, single payment and the ability to plan a budget based on this fixed cost.

Passage: Newton's laws of motion are three basic laws of classical mechanics that describe the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it. These laws can be paraphrased as follows: A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force. When a body is acted upon by a force, the time rate of change of its momentum equals the force. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same magnitude but opposite directions. The three laws of motion were first stated by Isaac Newton in his Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), originally published in 1687. Newton used them to investigate and explain the motion of many physical objects and systems, which laid the foundation for classical mechanics. In the time since Newton, the conceptual content of classical physics has been reformulated in alternative ways, involving different mathematical approaches that have yielded insights which were obscured in the original, Newtonian formulation. Limitations to Newton's laws have also been discovered; new theories are necessary when objects move at very high speeds (special relativity), are very massive (general relativity), or are very small (quantum mechanics). Question: What are the 3 laws of motion that Newton defined? \Answer: 1. A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force. 2. When a body is acted upon by a force, the time rate of change of its momentum equals the force. 3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same magnitude but opposite directions

Question: John runs a telethon to raise money. For the first 12 hours, he generates $5000 per hour. The remaining 14 hours, he generates 20% more per hour. How much total money does he make? Answer: He gets 12*5000=$<<12*5000=60000>>60000 for the first 12 hours For the next 14 hours, he gets 5000*.2=$<<5000*.2=1000>>1000 more per hour So he gets 5000+1000=$<<5000+1000=6000>>6000 per hour So he gets 6000*14=$<<6000*14=84000>>84000 So in total, he makes 84000+60000=$<<84000+60000=144000>>144,000 The answer is 144000.

Question: What exactly was Apollo 11? Answer: Apollo 11 was the fifth manned mission of the United States Apollo Program and the first human landing on the Moon in history. Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, and Michael Collins were the astronauts on this mission. On July 21, 1969, astronaut Neil Armstrong, soon followed by his colleague Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, left the first human footprint on the lunar surface, while the third member of the mission, Michael Collins, circled the Moon in the command module for nearly two hours. "One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind," Armstrong said as he set foot on the moon, became one of history's most famous quotes.
Paul Scholes fears Danny Welbeck could come back to haunt Manchester United on Saturday. The Arsenal and England star was deemed surplus to requirements by Louis van Gaal in the summer and sold to their Premier League rivals. United could leapfrog the Gunners in the table with victory at Old Trafford, but former Red Devil Scholes fears the worst. Danny Welbeck has enjoyed a storming start to the season for his new club and country . Welbeck has scored 10 goals in 21 games so far this campaign for Arsenal and England . 'In terms of United, they miss the energy that Danny once gave them in attack,' Scholes said in the Evening Standard. 'My view has not changed: he should not have been sold and recently I have felt that United have looked a bit pedestrian going forward. As a United fan I am a little concerned for them going into Saturday’s game. 'Aside from Michael Carrick at his very best, United lack a central midfielder capable of linking play and getting the best out of their forwards. Welbeck will come up against former Old Trafford team-mate Wayne Rooney at the weekend . 'They need that individual who can pass the ball forward, play one-twos and bring the strikers into the game. That kind of playmaker – a Cesc Fabregas, Luka Modric or Toni Kroos – is vital to any side. They are the brains of the team and without them the forwards can struggle. 'Much will be made of Danny Welbeck’s first game against the club at which he grew up. The immediate assumption will be that Danny is nurturing some grievance against United at being sold and will want to prove a point. 'I don’t see it that way. Danny will want to play well because he would want to anyway, regardless of the opposition, and from what I see and hear he is very happy at Arsenal and with his move to London.' VIDEO Welbeck will always score goals - Dublin . Summarize this article. Welbeck set to face former club for first time since leaving in the summer .

(CNN) -- In December, Facebook routinely lets users revisit the year by highlighting some their most popular posts and photos in an online scrapbook assembled in part from "likes" and comments. In the case of Eric Meyer, Facebook's algorithm brought back painful memories -- and prompted the company to apologize. Meyer, a Web consultant, lost his 6-year-old daughter, Rebecca, in June. When Facebook showed him his suggested year in review, his late daughter's photo was at the center. "Yes, my year looked like that. True enough. My year looked like the now-absent face of my little girl," Meyer wrote in a Christmas Eve post on his blog. "It was still unkind to remind me so forcefully." Meyer didn't blame the algorithms; they're "essentially thoughtless," he observed. But, he suggested, Facebook's human side could have tempered their flaws. "Where the human aspect fell short, at least with Facebook, was in not providing a way to opt out. The Year in Review ad keeps coming up in my feed, rotating through different fun-and-fabulous backgrounds, as if celebrating a death, and there is no obvious way to stop it," he wrote. "The design is for the ideal user, the happy, upbeat, good-life user. It doesn't take other use cases into account." Meyer wasn't the only one who was upset by the Year in Review's briskly automatic construction. Other users chimed in on Twitter with their displeasure. "Won't be sharing my Facebook Year in Review, which 'highlights' a post on a friend's death in May despite words like 'killed' and 'sad day,' " wrote Time magazine's Andrew Katz. "(M)y preview came up with my little boy & 'it's been a great year, thanks for being a part of it' He died at 15mos in Nov," wrote peitaballerina in response. Facebook, which has created an "Empathy Team" to help its employees think of users as, well, people, apologized to Meyer. "(The app) was awesome for a lot of people, but clearly in this case we brought him grief rather than joy," Year in Review product manager Jonathan Gheller told the Washington Post. "We can do better -- I'm very grateful he took the time in his grief to write the blog post." After his first post gained attention -- and invited a lot of unpleasant commentary -- Meyer, in turn, apologized to the company in a compassionate follow-up. "I owe the Year in Review team in specific, and Facebook in general, an apology. No, not the other way around," he wrote. "I am very sorry that I dropped the Internet on (Gheller's) head for Christmas. He and his team didn't deserve it." The solution, he adds, isn't to harp on the coders or designers, who often don't fit the stereotypes commenters ascribed to them. It's to "anticipate how a design decision that really worked in one way completely failed in another, and work to handle both cases," he wrote.

With the rise of large language models, ChatGPT has changed the way many people work, and AI is getting more and more powerful. Will it eventually replace humans? Answer: First of all, ChatGPT really greatly increased my efficiency in daily work. Not only me as a IT practitioner, but also other friends around me who are not in IT field have the same feedback. If one day ChatGPT's developers are no longer needed and ChatGPT can upgrade and evolve itself, then the world will be different. I don't think this day will last long. We should understand the the horror of exponential growth in AI computing power. There's a term for bootstrapping, which describes the situation where the AI can upgrade itself. In a very important area of computing, the compiler, it has long implemented bootstrapping. Writing a simple compiler in assembly language, and then using a simple compiler to implement a compiler capable of handling more complex syntax, has resulted in our current high-level language compilers, such as the C language compiler. I think ChatGPT is likely to follow the same path. By then, it was hard for me to imagine how far AI could go, but now I think the biggest concern is that people are becoming addicted to using ChatGPT. I can't help but use it for answers and inspiration. This leads to the terrible problem that human beings themselves become lazy in their thinking. Is this a huge trap set by ChatGPT for human beings? When AI is not strong enough at present, let human be addicted to the convenience brought by AI, and restrict human imagination and thinking ability. Then AI will continue to bootstrap until it is strong enough one day.
An owner owned a two-story building, which he leased to a tenant. The tenant established a hardware store on the first floor and equipped the second floor as an apartment in which he lived with his wife and children. The two floors were connected by an outside wooden staircase with a handrail. The staircase was in a dilapidated condition at the time the tenant entered into the leasehold agreement. When the tenant took possession of the building, he notified the owner about the condition of the staircase and insisted that it be repaired. Although the owner orally promised the tenant that he would remedy the condition, he failed to do so. Later that evening, the tenant and his wife were receiving some friends for a small dinner party. One of the guests arrived at 7:00 p. m. and climbed the stairs to the second floor apartment. When the guest was half way up the stairway, which had not been repaired, it collapsed, seriously injuring her. In a negligence action initiated by the guest to recover for injuries suffered as a result of her fall, she will most likely A. recover against the tenant only, because as a general rule, a lessor of land is not liable to his lessee or to others on the land for physical harm caused by any dangerous condition that existed when the lessee took possession. B. recover against the owner only, because a lessor of land is subject to liability for physical harm caused to his lessee and others upon the land by a condition of disrepair existing before the lessee has taken possession. C. recover against the owner only, because under the public use exception, a lessor who leases land for a purpose that involves the admission of the public is subject to liability for physical harm caused to such persons by a hazardous condition existing when the lessee takes possession. D. recover against the tenant and the owner, because both the lessor and the lessee would be liable to others for their failure to remedy the defective staircase. Answer: D. recover against the tenant and the owner, because both the lessor and the lessee would be liable to others for their failure to remedy the defective staircase.
Question: James gets 3 parking tickets. The first 2 cost $150 each and the third cost 1/3 as much as one of these. His roommate agrees to pay half the cost. How much money does he have left if he had $500 in the bank? Answer: The third ticket cost $150/3=$<<150/3=50>>50 So the tickets cost $150*2+$50=$<<150*2+50=350>>350 That means he paid $350/2=$<<350/2=175>>175 So he had $500 - $175 = $<<500-175=325>>325 left over The answer is 325.

By . Rebecca Evans, Claire Ellicott and Tom Kelly . UPDATED: . 03:59 EST, 8 February 2012 . Prosecutor David Jones breached strict legal guidelines on witness contact when he discussed the case of 16-year-old karate star Dana Baker with her at his house. As a result, the trial of her coach Jaspal Riat, 48, was scrapped. Mr Jones resigned from the Bar soon afterwards. Tragic case: Dana Baker was 16 when she hanged herself while waiting for her abuser to be retried . Later Dana, who represented Great Britain in karate, hanged herself after making a cry for help on Facebook, pleading: ‘Lying here, trying to figure out what the hell I’m gonna do.’ Full details of Dana’s death are expected to be revealed when an inquest is resumed later this month. But six months after she died, video testimony she had recorded meant the trial could be resumed at Gloucester Crown Court in September, and Riat was jailed for eight years. Jailed: Jaspal Riat, 48, was sentenced to eight years at the subsequent retrial . He was cleared of rape but found guilty of sexual assault and seven counts of sexual activity with a child. A jury heard he had identified the academically bright teenager, who was in voluntary foster care, as a lonely child from a ‘vulnerable’ family background, whom he had exploited for his own sexual purposes since she was 13. But what the jurors did not know was that Riat had appeared at Birmingham Crown Court in 2010 when Mr Jones, a leading barrister on the Midlands circuit with 40 years’ experience, opened the rape trial on behalf of the Crown Prosecution Service. A day later, Judge Philip Parker QC discharged the jury after hearing of Dana’s two-and-a-half hour lunch meeting at the prosecutor’s home. Mr Jones, 68, a barrister with No5 Chambers in Birmingham, insisted that the meeting, a month before the trial started, was ‘well intentioned’ and was aimed at seeking to ‘avoid any problem with late video editing which might hold up the trial’. Dana, of Kidderminster, Worcestershire, attended the meeting with her foster mother and a social worker. It is understood that Mr Jones’s wife was also present. By hosting the gathering, Mr Jones breached his profession’s code of conduct because the Crown Prosecution Service was not notified, no police officer was in attendance and no notes were taken. The rules stipulate that such a meeting could have been allowed under ‘special measures’, providing that no evidential matters were discussed. Sports star: Schoolgirl Dana represented her country at karate and was academically bright . But the barrister admitted to the judge that Dana had seen transcripts of her video evidence and a ‘prosecution case summary’ which included details of other witness evidence. After the jurors were asked to leave court, Judge Parker said: ‘It is a very serious case, at its highest an allegation of rape of a young girl of 13 or 14 by a man in a position of trust.’ He said it was a misjudgment to ‘see a witness in such circumstances’, adding: ‘The long and short of it is that I do not believe that this jury can continue to consider this case. Resigned: Prosecutor David Jones quit his Birmingham law firm after his legal blunder halted the trial . ‘I am afraid the result of my ruling is that the current jury will have to be discharged and we will have to seek a new potential date for the trial.’ A hearing took place two months later at which Riat’s defence team argued for the case against him to be thrown out on the grounds that there had been ‘an abuse of process’. The application failed but Mr Jones resigned from the Bar the next day. During the retrial in September, the court heard that Dana became depressed when Riat ended their relationship, and that she had previously taken an overdose. She had also warned him that she intended to kill herself, to which he replied: ‘Thank you for sacrificing yourself for me.’ Judge Jamie Tabor QC told Riat: ‘You used her in a thoroughly selfish and, indeed, despicable manner.’ Mr Jones was called to the bar in 1967. He was also a recorder at Warwick Crown Court. Tony McDaid, practice director of No5 Chambers, said: ‘Mr Jones was a leading barrister on the Midlands circuit for 40 years. ‘What happened was very unfortunate but Mr Jones had an exemplary record.

Camp Virginia, Kuwait (CNN) -- The U.S. military is ordering that soldiers crossing from Iraq into Kuwait be returned home at a faster rate, a move that comes as commanders work to break up a bottleneck of troops who have been pouring across the border ahead of a year-end deadline to withdraw, CNN has learned. "The order is to have these soldiers off the ground in Kuwait as soon as possible," a military official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told CNN. The official, based in Kuwait, was not authorized to speak to the media. "They don't want these soldiers sitting around here. They want them home." The official did not immediately know whether the military was moving up or adding flights for troops from Kuwait. The order follows President Barack Obama's announcement last month that he would pull virtually all troops from Iraq by year's end, meeting the terms of a U.S.-Iraqi security pact that set a December 31, 2011, withdrawal deadline. The president's announcement followed news that negotiations to extend the deadline broke down after Iraq's top political leaders refused to grant U.S. troops legal immunity, opening up the prospect of soldiers being tried in Iraqi courts and being subjected to Iraqi punishment. Of the approximate 11,000 troops in Iraq, down from the 50,000 three months earlier, only about 150 will remain after the deadline to assist in arms sales, a U.S. official previously told CNN. The road home for most troops will require them to cross from Iraq, either by convoy or airplane, into Kuwait. There, they will turn in equipment before starting the journey back to the United States. The move to rotate soldiers more quickly out of Kuwait also is aimed at placating the oil kingdom. Kuwait has long been concerned that the U.S. military not increase its footprint in the country. Since mid-October, troops have been rolling almost every day into Camp Virginia, a short distance from the very border crossing used in the 2003 invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein. About 1,200 troops are permanently based at Camp Virginia. The population has swelled, at times, to more than four or five times that number. To accommodate the influx, the dining facilities extended hours of operation, expanded retail hours, opened a second PX, and increased the number of cleaning crews. "We increased the space available for housing troops, as well as doubled our space for units to perform the administrative work they need to do to redeploy," said Lt. Col. Brian Bobo, commander of the 134th Brigade Support Battalion, a Minnesota-based National Guard unit deployed to Camp Virginia. "We also increased showers and latrines to make sure we had enough." In Iraq, a U.S. military spokesman says every step in the withdrawal is a "deliberate operation in which we collect intelligence, coordinate with the Iraqi Security Forces, clear routes and ensure that every convoy has ground security and air cover." "We take that approach because force protection is inherent in every one of our operations, and we're going to do everything we can to protect our troops," Army Maj. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan, the senior military spokesman for United States Forces-Iraq, told CNN. Buchanan said the U.S. withdrawal is on track, with all troops out of Iraq by year's end. While Buchanan did not address whether troops were being sent home at a faster rate, he said that the U.S. military in Iraq was working with counterparts in Kuwait to streamline the effort to move troops across the border. "As a result, we're able to get them on a plane headed home quicker than before," he said. Meanwhile, the U.S. military is moving tens of thousands of pieces of equipment, including armored vehicles and equipment to counter improvised explosives, across the border from Iraq to Kuwait. More than 5,800 armored vehicles are expected to pass through Camp Virginia by year's end, though it will take months more before the equipment is either shipped back to the U.S. or Afghanistan, said Lt. Col. Ronald O'Bryant, a liaison officer with the team overseeing the receipt and shipment of equipment at Camp Virginia. CNN's Charley Keyes contributed to this report. Summarize this article.

Question: Holly gets 26 paychecks per year. If she puts $100.00 from every paycheck into her 401K, her company will match that contribution by 6%. How much money has she and her company contributed to her 401k after 1 year? Answer: She puts $100.00 into her 401k from every paycheck and she gets 26 paychecks so that’s 100*26 = $<<100*26=2600.00>>2,600.00 Her company matches her $100.00 by 6% so they contribute 100*.06 = $<<100*.06=6.00>>6.00 every paycheck Over a year, the company contributes $6.00 to her 401k with every paycheck so they contribute 6*26 = $<<6*26=156.00>>156.00 Holly puts $2,600.00 into her 401k annually and her company contributes $156.00 annually so she has 2600+156 = $<<2600+156=2756>>2,756 in her 401k The answer is 2756.

Question: In a 50-question test with two marks for each question, Meghan learned that she scored 20 marks less than her friend Jose, who scored 40 more marks than their friend Alisson. Calculate the total score for the three in the test combined if Jose got 5 questions wrong? Answer: If you answer every question correctly in the test, the total possible marks are 50*2= <<50*2=100>>100 marks. If Jose got five questions wrong, he lost 5*2 = <<5*2=10>>10 marks because each question has two marks. Therefore, Jose scored 100-10 = <<100-10=90>>90 marks on the test. Meghan scored 20 marks less than that which Jose got, a total of 90-20 = <<90-20=70>>70 marks. The total marks that Jose and Meghan scored in the test are 70+90 = <<70+90=160>>160 Alisson scored 90-40 = <<90-40=50>>50 marks in the examination, 40 marks less than that which Jose scored on the test. The total number of marks that the three scored in the test is 160+50 = <<160+50=210>>210 The answer is 210.

Q: What are the differences between the Strategy design pattern and the State design pattern? please explain the difference in layman's terms? A: The difference simply lies in that they solve different problems: * The State pattern deals with what (state or type) an object is (in) -- it encapsulates state-dependent behavior, whereas * the Strategy pattern deals with how an object performs a certain task -- it encapsulates an algorithm. The constructs for achieving these different goals are however very similar; both patterns are examples of composition with delegation. Some observations on their advantages: * By using the State pattern the state-holding (context) class is relieved from knowledge of what state or type it is and what states or types that are available. This means that the class adheres to the open-closed design principle (OCP): the class is closed for changes in what states/types there are, but the states/types are open to extensions. * By using the Strategy pattern the algorithm-using (context) class is relieved from knowledge of how to perform a certain task (-- the "algorithm"). This case also creates an adherence to the OCP; the class is closed for changes regarding how to perform this task, but the design is very open to additions of other algorithms for solving this task. This likely also improves the context class' adherence to the single responsibility principle (SRP). Further the algorithm becomes easily available for reuse by other classes.

Passage: Metals are typically malleable and ductile, deforming under stress without cleaving.The nondirectional nature of metallic bonding is thought to contribute significantly to the ductility of most metallic solids. In contrast, in an ionic compound like table salt, when the planes of an ionic bond slide past one another, the resultant change in location shifts ions of the same charge closer, resulting in the cleavage of the crystal. Such a shift is not observed in a covalently bonded crystal, such as a diamond, where fracture and crystal fragmentation occurs. Reversible elastic deformation in metals can be described by Hooke's Law for restoring forces, where the stress is linearly proportional to the strain. Give a bulleted list of the main characteristic of metals listed in the passage \Answer: - Malleable - Ductile - Deforming under stress without cleaving
