Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Passage: Mantua is the ancestral city where the male line of the Gonzaga dynasty ruled, first as marquesses, then after 1540 as dukes, in vassalage to the Holy Roman Empire. Monferrato was a duchy since 1574 on the eastern side of Piedmont, and an Imperial fief since the eleventh or twelfth century. The Gonzagas had enlarged their realm with Monferrato after receiving it in dowry from the wife of duke Frederick II Gonzaga. On 22 September 1612, Francis IV, Duke of Mantua and Monferrato died at the age of 26. His death occurred only a couple of months after the death of his father Vincent I, Duke of Mantua. He left only a three-year-old daughter, Maria of Mantua. Francis IV also had two younger brothers who, both being cardinals, could not marry and were thus ineligible to succeed to Mantua's throne. Nonetheless, Francis' two brothers, Ferdinando I and Vincenzo II , eventually did become Dukes of Mantua. Despite marrying, following the resignation of Ferdinando and the expulsion of Vincenzo from the Sacred College of Cardinals, neither produced any legitimate children. A crisis erupted when Vincenzo II died on 26 December 1627 at the age of 33, the same day that his niece Maria Gonzaga's marriage with Charles de Nevers was celebrated. Nevers was the eldest son and heir of Charles, Duke of Nevers, Rethel and Mayenne. Moreover, he was the head of the cadet branch of the House of Gonzaga, and after Vincenzo II, heir male of the Duchy of Mantua. Question: What year was Maria of Mantua born in? Student:

Read this article and answer this question Playing in his 14th and final NBA All-Star Game in 2003, Jordan passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the all-time leading scorer in All-Star Game history (a record since broken by Kobe Bryant). That year, Jordan was the only Washington player to play in all 82 games, starting in 67 of them. He averaged 20.0 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 steals per game. He also shot 45% from the field, and 82% from the free throw line. Even though he turned 40 during the season, he scored 20 or more points 42 times, 30 or more points nine times, and 40 or more points three times. On February 21, 2003, Jordan became the first 40-year-old to tally 43 points in an NBA game. During his stint with the Wizards, all of Jordans home games at the MCI Center were sold out, and the Wizards were the second most-watched team in the NBA, averaging 20,172 fans a game at home and 19,311 on the road. However, neither of Jordans final two seasons resulted in a playoff appearance for the Wizards, and Jordan was often unsatisfied with the play of those around him. At several points he openly criticized his teammates to the media, citing their lack of focus and intensity, notably that of the List of first overall NBA draft picks in the 2001 NBA draft, Kwame Brown. How many career all-star games did Jordan play?

In this task, you're given a paragraph from the research paper and your task is to generate a suitable title for the research paper based on the given paper. Under 100 words is a good title length. Background: Cumulating reports suggest that acute phase proteins (APPs) do not only play a role as systemic inflammatory mediators, but are also expressed in different tissues as local reaction to inflammatory stimuli. The present study aimed to evaluate presence and changes in luminal lung concentrations of the APPs haptoglobin (Hp), lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP), C-reactive protein (CRP), and lactoferrin (Lf) in calves with an acute respiratory disease experimentally induced by Chlamydia (C.) psittaci. Results: Intra-bronchial inoculation of the pathogen resulted in a consistent respiratory illness. In venous blood of the infected calves (n = 13), concentrations of plasma proteins and serum LBP were assessed (i) before exposure and (ii) 8 times within 14 days after inoculation (dpi). Increasing clinical illness correlated significantly with increasing LBP-and decreasing albumin concentrations in blood, both verifying a systemic acute phase response. Broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was obtained from all 13 calves experimentally infected with C. psittaci at 4, 9 and 14 dpi, and from 6 uninfected healthy calves. Concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA), Hp, LBP, CRP and Lf in BALF were determined by ELISA. In infected animals, absolute concentrations of LBP and Hp in BALF correlated significantly with the respiratory score. The quotient [LBP]/[BSA] in BALF peaked significantly in acutely infected animals (4 dpi), showed a time-dependent decrease during the recovery phase (9-14 dpi), and was significantly higher compared to healthy controls. Concentrations of Hp and Lf in BALF as well as [Hp]/[BSA]-and [Lf]/[BSA]-quotients decreased during the study in infected animals, but were never higher than in healthy controls. CRP concentrations and [CRP]/[BSA]-quotient did not express significant differences between infected and healthy animals or during the course of infection. Conclusion: In conclusion, absolute concentrations of LBP in blood and BALF as well as the quotient [LBP]/[BSA] in BALF perfectly paralleled the clinical course of respiratory illness after infection. Beside LBP, the suitability of Hp and Lf as local biomarkers of respiratory infections in cattle and their role in the local response to pathogens is worth further investigation, while CRP does not seem to play a role in local defense mechanisms of the bovine lung.
Acute phase proteins as local biomarkers of respiratory infection in calves
In this task, you are given an article. Your task is to summarize the article in a sentence. Following the birth of her first child, Jessica developed a problem with her thyroid gland that greatly exacerbated her pre-existing anxiety disorder. "I've had anxiety my whole life," says the 36-year-old from Canberra, Australia. "The [thyroid] condition meant that my anxiety got out of control." This was back in 2012, and Jessica decided to return to her civil service job sooner than originally planned, after she and her doctor agreed that getting back to doing the work she loved would keep her focused and hopefully mitigate her anxiety. But Jessica, who had to reveal her mental health problem to her employers to receive the flexible schedule she needed, claims that her managers and colleagues started to make negative assumptions about her capabilities, and began to exclude her from projects. "Because of how I was treated... I didn't really get better," she says. Having previously managed 17 staff, Jessica says she felt disheartened and devalued. However, the bad experience did ultimately have a positive impact - it made Jessica determined to help other people with mental or physical disabilities, and gave her the idea for setting up a business to do this. "I knew there needed to be something for people with disabilities who just need a little bit of flexibility from their employers," she says. So she decided to quit her government job and launch Enabled Employment, a recruitment consultancy that helps people with a disability find paid work. Today, the Canberra-based company helps thousands of people find work at more than 400 businesses in Australia, including accountancy giant PricewaterhouseCoopers, taxi hire service Uber, and even the Australian Defence Force. To help get Enabled up and running, Jessica successfully applied for a small entrepreneurship grant from the Australian Capital Territory government. She left her civil service job one Friday in December 2012, and started work at Enabled the following Monday, with help and support coming from a local start-up support initiative called the Griffin Accelerator. The number of people and companies using the business then slowly started to grow. The business is similar to a regular recruitment agency, in that it maintains an online listing of available jobs, and acts as a mediator between would-be employees and hiring managers. However, Enabled also offers what it calls "accessibility brokering", which means that it works to ensure that businesses are able to offer employees the working conditions they need to perform at their best. This includes checking on flexible working hours and ensuring that offices have disabled access and toilets. Jessica is keen to stress that the company is not a charity. Instead it is a for-profit business. She believes that charities that pay businesses to take on disabled staff can reinforce negative stereotypes about disabled people. "It really devalues people with disabilities who are totally capable," she says. "We don't want anyone to feel like a charity case." Instead, Enabled charges companies, typically a one-off fee equivalent to 10% of a person's annual salary. By contrast, people who use Enabled to find work don't have to pay it anything. "There's 4.2 million people in Australia with a disability. Many of these people are very competent, it is really about trying to break down their barriers to work," says Jessica. "We charge businesses for our services because you should be paying for amazingly qualified people, and you should also be paying for the diversity that it brings." Enabled is valued at more than six million Australian dollars ($4.6m; £3.9m), and has expanded its services to include military veterans and indigenous Australians. Suzanne Colbert, the founder of the Australian Network on Disability, says that Enabled has "freshened up" the Australian job market's otherwise "stale" attitude towards hiring people with disabilities. She adds that Enabled has allowed employers to "tap into new sources of talent". When it comes to its own staff, Enabled practises what it preaches. Four of its seven full-time employees have a disability and work within a schedule that accommodates them best. The company and Jessica have also won a number of Australian awards, including start-up of the year in 2015, and a National Disability Award for community accessibility. Looking ahead, Jessica says she plans to expand the business in Australia before considering any moves overseas. But for now, she says she is "the happiest she's ever been". "I still have anxiety. It doesn't ever go away, but I can definitely manage it with the flexibility that we have at Enabled."
Jessica May was moving quickly up the career ladder until she was tripped up by mental illness.
Atlanta (CNN) -- A Georgia man was alone before his fatal fall from an upper level of Atlanta's Turner Field, police said Tuesday, as they continue to investigate his death. Ronald L. Homer, 30, was attending Monday night's Braves game against the Phillies. The Braves said they planned to observe a moment of silence for Homer before Tuesday's game. Four witnesses told officers that they saw Homer fall from the fourth level of the stadium during a rain delay in the game, the Atlanta Police Department said. "All the witnesses stated that there was (sic) no other people around Mr. Homer when he fell," police said, adding there were no surveillance cameras at the scene. Police said the fall appeared to be accidental but that it was too early to tell if alcohol was a factor. Homer, of nearby Conyers, fell 65 feet into the players' parking lot. He was unconscious when emergency responders found him, but he died later at the hospital, police said. An autopsy on Homer is complete, but authorities are not releasing details, citing pending toxicology results, Tami Sedivy-Schroder, an investigator with the Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office, said Tuesday. Results can take up to eight weeks, she said. Homer's mother, Connie Homer, told CNN affiliate WXIA that he was a big Braves fan who was attending the game with a friend. "I'm just sick," she said. "We're a very close family. He was big-hearted." The game was scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m. but heavy rains pushed back the start time nearly two hours. 1. How old was the man who died? 2. What was his first name? 3. And the last name?
1. 30 2. Ronald 3. Homer

Teacher:In this task, you're given a question, a context passage, and four options which are terms from the passage. After reading a passage, you will get a brief understanding of the terms. Your job is to determine by searching and reading further information of which term you can answer the question. Indicate your choice as 'a', 'b', 'c', or 'd'. If you think more than one option is plausible, choose the more probable option to help you answer the question. Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Question: Who is the oldest of Joseph's parents? Passage:In the biblical account, Joseph's other son is Manasseh, and Joseph himself is one of the two children of Rachel and Jacob, the other being Benjamin. Biblical scholars regard it as obvious, from their geographic overlap and their treatment in older passages, that originally Ephraim and Manasseh were considered one tribe – that of Joseph. The Book of Revelation, however, accords only Ephraim the tribal name of Joseph. According to several biblical scholars, Benjamin was originally part of the suggested Ephraim-Manasseh single "Joseph" tribe, but the biblical account of Joseph as his father became lost. A number of biblical scholars suspect that the distinction of the Joseph tribes (including Benjamin) is that they were the only Israelites which went to Egypt and returned, while the main Israelite tribes simply emerged as a subculture from the Canaanites and had remained in Canaan throughout. According to this view, the story of Jacob's visit to Laban to obtain a wife originated as a metaphor for this migration, with the property and family which were gained from Laban representing the gains of the Joseph tribes by the time they returned from Egypt; according to textual scholars, the Jahwist version of the Laban narrative only mentions the Joseph tribes, and Rachel, and does not mention the other tribal matriarchs at all.

Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, generate a relevant question to the topic of the paragraph. The paragraph has the prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix `Q:` followed by the answer prefix `A:`. Example Input: CONTEXT: Without forensics it's hard to tell exactly what happened.However, one possible explanation is sunlight. If the watermelon was in the sun at all, even just a little part of it, that tends to accelerate the growth of all sorts of things.Another possibility is that it was just past its date. There isn't really a way to tell if this is near or not without chemical analysis.In watermelon country (I live near an ancient greek watermelon port) watermelon is generally refrigerated. This is partially because we find it tastier when it's cold, and partially because room temperature easily goes above 30, and even above 34-5 on certain days. <sep> Q: Cause of watermelon rind rotting? A: one possible explanation is sunlight Q: I left it on the kitchen table but it was out of the light. Any other reasons? A: Another possibility is that it was just past its date Q: What about the temperature of the room? A: room temperature easily goes above 30, and even above 34-5 on certain days Example Output: What about leaving it in a bag, will that hurt? Example Input: CONTEXT: Leaving any sort of sugar confection in the fridge (as it will out of the fridge also, but to a lesser extent) will soften the sugar after a prolonged period due to the moisture in the air. However, putting it in the fridge for a short period of time will simply speed up the cooling process as you put in your question. <sep> Q: Can I cool my toffee in the fridge? A: Leaving any sort of sugar confection in the fridge (as it will out of the fridge also, but to a lesser extent) will soften the sugar after a prolonged period Q: is cooling the toffee in the fridge as good as room temperature? A: putting it in the fridge for a short period of time will simply speed up the cooling process Example Output: does putting it in the fridge speed up the cooling process? Example Input: CONTEXT: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver. We have a massive deer farm close and the price is still ridiculous .My suggestion is that you find a good butcher that will age beef for you on the bone ,or you could age it yourself if you have a climate control area to keep it at the correct temperature. Anything over 30 days on the bone will start to give you the gaming flavour you are craving. Nothing is going to match deer, but aged beef or really any type of cattle (eg buffalo etc) will give you the gaminess if it is aged. Restaurants are getting up to 180 days, which I could only imagine would melt in your mouth but the flavour would be intense. <sep> Q: How can I reproduce a "gamey" flavor? A: My suggestion is that you find a good butcher that will age beef for you on the bone ,or you could age it yourself if you have a climate control area to keep it at the correct temperature Q: Does that make it taste gamey? A: Anything over 30 days on the bone will start to give you the gaming flavour you are craving Q: Are there any sauces or liquid game additives I can use? A: From a cooking perspective any imitation sauce or marinade is never going to deliver the quality that venison has to deliver Example Output:
What about spices that could help with the gamey flavor?

Summarize: The German Shepherd is part of the working dog classification and has a strong proportioned build. Typically, the German Shepherd is 22 to 26 inches (50-65 cm) tall and weighs between 77 and 85 pounds (35-40 kg). It has a narrow and deep chest, and the front legs and shoulders are muscular and sloping. Its body is slightly longer than it is deep, measuring from the shoulders to the rump. German Shepherd puppies typically weigh 7-9 pounds (3-4 kg) after the first month and will continue to grow steadily throughout their first year. By six months they will weigh approximately 50-57 pounds (22-26 kg). German Shepherds have very distinct pointed ears that are erect. They are long at the base and face forwards, making the shape of a triangle. As puppies, the tips of the ear may flop over slightly, but they will straighten as the dog ages. German Shepherds have a long and bushy tail that hangs down when the dog is resting. When a German Shepherd is alert or in motion, the curve of the tail is accentuated and the tail will be slightly raised.
Examine the dog’s strong build. Look for pointed ears. Notice the bushy tail.

instruction: In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: insult and non-insult. Insult is any lanugage or act that is disrespectful or scornfully abusive. question: Comment: just another day in punkville. lets catch em and give em a slap n turn em loose. answer: Non-insult question: Comment: We have just as many rights as you have, wavy. How about a nice long jail sentence for criminals? Execution for murders and child molesters? answer: Non-insult question: Comment: As others have noted, those claiming that the "big fear" with "REAL ID" is revealing our Social Security numbers (claiming that's why we should embrace the program), are waving a big fat RED HERRING in our face. The reason to refuse to participate in the "REAL ID" program is unrelated to S.S. numbers. "REAL ID" is a Federal attempt to get the 50 states to implement a universal ID for The Feds. If you think a domestic passport is what we need to keep us safe, and make your life easier - embrace the concept - if you value the freedoms you enjoy because you live somewhere in the United States of America reject REAL ID. Just my opinion of course. answer:
Non-insult
Members of 'black media' say it's not their job to protect Bill Cosby Bill Cosby has implored the “black media” to remain “neutral” as he faces mounting allegations of sexual misconduct that have threatened his career. But some members of the “black media”, if such a monolithic entity can even be said to exist, say it’s not their job to protect the fallen star, despite what he has meant to the African American community. Nearly two dozen women have accused the embattled 77-year-old star of drugging and then raping or sexually assaulting them. The alleged incidents, which Cosby has consistently denied, stretch back more than four decades. After weeks of silence, Cosby gave a brief interview to the New York Post in which he criticized the media’s coverage of the stories about him and appealed to black media “to uphold the standards of excellence in journalism and when you do that you have to go in with a neutral mind”. (Cosby has since, through his lawyer, claimed the Post reporter with whom he spoke misrepresented himself as a freelance reporter for black news outlets.) “There’s something deeply painful about it all,” said David Wilson, co-founder and executive editor of the Grio. “What people don’t understand, and particularly white Americans don’t understand, is that Bill Cosby changed the way black people saw themselves,” Wilson continued. “And if this guy is somehow a phony, if this guy is somehow a crooked person, then what does that say? How do we go back and be proud of what this guy’s done – the thing that he’s done that made us feel so great about ourselves? That’s why it’s such a big story for black America.” Akiba Solomon, the editorial director of Colorlines.com, called Cosby’s comments “insulting” to black journalists. “Media is media,” she said, adding that it’s unfair for the comedian to place the burden on black news outlets specifically. “It makes it seem that black media should take special care of him, and that by taking special care of him that we’re protecting a prominent black man who’s done nothing wrong,” Solomon said. “That’s problematic.” She said she interpreted Cosby’s comments as a strategic attempt to play up the idea that the allegations against him were part of a “racially motivated” conspiracy theory propelled by the mostly white media. She said this is a powerful tactic, because, as she pointed out, there are always people willing to bring down prominent black figures: “The FBI tracked Martin Luther King,” she noted as an example. “It seems he was trying to say that black media has a greater responsibility to be ‘neutral’ because of this alleged conspiracy,” she said. In an interview with TheWrap, the president of the National Association of Black Journalists, Bob Butler, said Cosby shouldn’t have singled out black media. “I don’t see this as a racial issue. This is an issue of journalists who are reporting on allegations and asking for comments,” Butler told the website. “That’s what we’re trained to do. We look at both sides of the story. One side of the story are people making allegations, and it’s our responsibility to try and find out what his response is.” Twitter users responded with similar criticism of the star’s request. Oh and the NERVE of Bill Cosby with his "black media" will stay neutral. Bill Cosby tells "black media" to "stay neutral." Jingoism is the last refuge of the scoundrel. http://t.co/SsNnh3zThw Nah, Bill. Don't come asking for help from the Black media. 10 years ago, I was sagging my pants. You're to good for my help. Wilson’s website, the Grio, whose audience is predominantly black, conducted a poll asking readers if they thought black media should be held to a different standard when covering the rape accusations against Cosby. Of the nearly 9,500 readers who responded, just under 60% said no, black media should “tell it like it is”; but 28% said yes, “[t]here is a history of mainstream media assassinating the character of good black men and black media’s role is to always counter that.” Wilson said readers have lashed out at the Grio for reporting on the scandal, but he said he doesn’t take offense. He understands their anger, he said, even if some readers don’t understand it’s his journalistic responsibility to follow the story – wherever it leads. Cosby hasn’t publicly addressed the most recent claims against him. In a statement last month, Martin Singer, a lawyer representing Cosby, said the accusations against Cosby are “ridiculous” and “unsubstantiated, fantastical stories”. His wife, Camille, defended her husband in a statement on Monday that blamed the media for not thoroughly vetting his accusers. Wilson said if – and, he thinks, when – the star decides to respond, he wouldn’t be surprised if chooses to do so in a black media outlet. “He’s trying to appeal to the people who loved him most, and that’s the black community,” Wilson said. “America loved Bill Cosby, black people idolized him.” “He said ‘This is what black excellence looks like.’ And to have that ... ” Wilson trailed off. “Now we just have Oprah and Obama left.” What is a short summary of the above article?
Black journalists voice unease with the comedian’s comments to remain ‘neutral’ in their coverage of the escalating sexual abuse charges

I read this background article the other day: Candied fruit, also known as crystallized fruit or glacé fruit, has existed since the 14th century. Whole fruit, smaller pieces of fruit, or pieces of peel, are placed in heated sugar syrup, which absorbs the moisture from within the fruit and eventually preserves it. Depending on size and type of fruit, this process of preservation can take from several days to several months.[1] This process allows the fruit to retain its quality for a year.[2] The continual process of drenching the fruit in syrup causes the fruit to become saturated with sugar, preventing the growth of spoilage microorganisms due to the unfavourable osmotic pressure this creates.[3] I am facing a new situation today: Mary and Ann got some fruit as a gift from a friend. Mary decided to candy the fruit, while Ann decided to eat them fresh, Mary received plums, peaches, apples and oranges. Ann got pears, quince, cherries and blackberries. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which fruit retained their quality longer peaches or blackberries? ---- Answer: peaches I read this background article the other day: Some Chinese martial arts instructors focus more on their qinna techniques than others. This is one of the many reasons why the qinna of one school may differ from that of another.[2] All martial arts contain qinna techniques in some degree. The southern Chinese martial arts have more developed qinna techniques than northern Chinese martial systems. The southern martial arts have much more prevalent reliance on hand techniques which causes the practitioner to be in closer range to their opponent. There are over 700 qinna traditional techniques found in all martial arts. In the Non-Temple White Crane style there are 150-200 qinna techniques alone. Along with Fujian White Crane, styles such as Northern Eagle Claw (Ying Jow Pai) and Tiger Claw (Fu Jow Pai) have qinna as their martial focus and tend to rely on these advanced techniques. I am facing a new situation today: There is a long history of martial arts competition in Fujian Province of China. Interestingly, one can also place bets on competitors. David is a martial arts enthusiast, watching every martial arts movie he can find. This year David and his friend John is visiting the Fujian Province to see the martial arts competition. There are two rounds of competition, round A and round B. Round A competitors would display southern Chinese martial arts while round B competitors would display northern Chinese martial arts. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which round would display less developed qinna techniques, round A or round B? ---- Answer: round B I read this background article the other day: Some of Antarctica has been warming up; particularly strong warming has been noted on the Antarctic Peninsula. A study by Eric Steig published in 2009 noted for the first time that the continent-wide average surface temperature trend of Antarctica is slightly positive at >0.05 °C (0.09 °F) per decade from 1957 to 2006. This study also noted that West Antarctica has warmed by more than 0.1 °C (0.2 °F) per decade in the last 50 years, and this warming is strongest in winter and spring. This is partly offset by autumn cooling in East Antarctica. There is evidence from one study that Antarctica is warming as a result of human carbon dioxide emissions, but this remains ambiguous. The amount of surface warming in West Antarctica, while large, has not led to appreciable melting at the surface, and is not directly affecting the West Antarctic Ice Sheet's contribution to sea level. Instead the recent increases in glacier outflow are believed to be due to an inflow of warm water from the deep ocean, just off the continental shelf. The net contribution to sea level from the Antarctic Peninsula is more likely to be a direct result of the much greater atmospheric warming there.In 2002 the Antarctic Peninsula's Larsen-B ice shelf collapsed. Between 28 February and 8 March 2008, about 570 km2 (220 sq mi) of ice from the Wilkins Ice Shelf on the southwest part of the peninsula collapsed, putting the remaining 15,000 km2 (5,800 sq mi) of the ice shelf at risk. The ice was being held back by a "thread" of ice about 6 km (4 mi) wide, prior to its collapse on 5 April 2009. According to NASA, the most widespread Antarctic surface melting of the past 30 years occurred in 2005, when an area of ice comparable in size to California briefly melted and refroze; this may have resulted from temperatures rising to as high as 5 °C (41 °F).A study published in Nature Geoscience in 2013 (online in December 2012) identified central West Antarctica as one of the fastest-warming regions on Earth. The researchers present a complete temperature... I am facing a new situation today: Two teams of researches studied Antarctica's climate. The team studied two different regions. The US team studied East Antarctica, while the Swiss team studied West Antarctica. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which team didn't learn about a region that doesn't show signs of appreciable melting despite the large amount of surface warming? ---- Answer:
US

Please answer this: Found the following article online, use it to answer the question: In what year did La princesse jaune premiere? In 1870, concerned at the dominance of German music and the lack of opportunity for young French composers to have their works played, Saint-Saëns and Romain Bussine, professor of singing at the Conservatoire, discussed the founding of a society to promote new French music. Before they could take the proposal further, the Franco-Prussian War broke out. Saint-Saëns served in the National Guard during the war. During the brief but bloody Paris Commune that followed, his superior at the Madeleine, the Abbé Deguerry, was murdered by rebels; Saint-Saëns was fortunate to escape to temporary exile in England where he arrived in May 1871. With the help of George Grove and others he supported himself while there, giving recitals. Returning to Paris in the same year, he found that anti-German sentiments had considerably enhanced support for the idea of a pro-French musical society. The Société Nationale de Musique, with its motto, "Ars Gallica", had been established in February 1871, with Bussine as president, Saint-Saëns as vice-president and Henri Duparc, Fauré, Franck and Jules Massenet among its founder-members. As an admirer of Liszt's innovative symphonic poems, Saint-Saëns enthusiastically adopted the form; his first "poème symphonique" was Le Rouet d'Omphale (1871), premiered at a concert of the Sociéte Nationale in January 1872. In the same year, after more than a decade of intermittent work on operatic scores, Saint-Saëns finally had one of his operas staged. La princesse jaune ("The Yellow Princess"), a one-act, light romantic piece, was given at the Opéra-Comique, Paris in June. It ran for five performances.Throughout the 1860s and early 1870s, Saint-Saëns had continued to live a bachelor existence, sharing a large fourth-floor flat in the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré with his mother. In 1875, he surprised many by marrying. The groom was approaching forty and his bride was nineteen; she was Marie-Laure Truffot, the sister of one of the composer's pupils. The marriage was not a success.

Taxi driver Joe Lourik gets into an argument with a finance company over payments owed on his new cab. Believing that he has been cheated, Joe reclaims his payments but is arrested for robbery. Escaping with a pair of handcuffs still attached, he jumps on a passing freight train where he meets a tramp who tells him to see Patian, a thief and a fence in San Diego, who can also remove his handcuffs. After meeting Patian, it is agreed that he will remove the cuffs on the condition that Joe drive the getaway car for a bank robbery. After the robbery, Patian sends Joe north to a boarding house in Sacramento to wait for his share of the take, but the boarding house owner informs Joe that Patian isn't good for the money. Desperate for bus fare to return to San Diego to get his money from Patian, Joe considers robbing the cash register of the empty storefront of a downtown Sacramento flower shop. Once in the store, clerk Laura Benson emerges from the backroom before Joe can rob the register. Joe falls in love immediately and decides to go straight. With his winnings from a crap game, Joe buys a garage in Amesville and settles down, however, within a year, the police are on his trail. Joe then travels to San Diego to demand his money from Patian, but Patian's thugs force Joe to rob a post office. Desperate, and afraid that he will be caught if he returns home, Joe disappears. Some time later, Joe sees a picture of his newborn baby in the newspaper and meets with Laura, who pleads with Joe to give himself up and serve his time so that he can continue his new life. Hearing footsteps, Joe flees from the police who have followed Laura, and Laura is arrested and jailed as an accomplice. ++++++++ Answer: Laura Benson Please answer this: Found the following article online, use it to answer the question: Who do the Denises go on the hunt with? The documentary follows the travels of Armand Denis and his wife, Michaela Denis, as they travel around sub-Saharan Africa. Their safari begins in British East Africa, and continues on to Victoria Falls. From there they travel to South Africa, and trek up the coast of southwest Africa, before once more heading inland, where they meet with various African tribes. They fly to an animal farm run by Carr Hartley, where they learn how cheetahs are trained to hunt down other wild animals. The Denises next go to another animal farm, this one specializing in ostriches, where Michaela mounts and rides an ostrich. Their final stop is at a village where the local tribe is about to go on a gorilla hunt. The Denises go on the hunt with them, which results in the killing of two male gorillas who are taken back to the village to be eaten. Other highlights of the safari include capturing a large sea lion in order to take a blood sample, and one of their carriers being attacked by a leopard they had been filming. The film offers wonderful vistas and some beautiful footage of wildlife including crocodiles, gazelles, elephants, gannets, antelopes, hippopotamus, water buffalos, penguins, and pelicans. ++++++++ Answer:

Ian McKellen officiated the wedding of his friend Patrick Stewart and Sunny Ozell.
The classic Key West-style house just off Fleming looked much like the rest of the residences on the block - two-story wooden frame walls and peaked roofs with shallow porches nearly butting up against the sidewalk. Chloe's rusting blue Vespa was tucked away beside the house, in the narrow space separating it from the neighbors. To anyone walking by outside, everything looked quiet and peaceful. Inside, Chloe was pissed. Everything had been going great and then those stupid fuckers had decided to show up a week early, forcing her to scramble to pack a week's work into a single day. She wore a black bandana wrapped around her head, covering her buzz cut pink hair. Numerous smudges of dirt on her cheeks and the tip of her nose testified to the heavy-duty cleaning she'd been doing for the past five hours. She wore loose fitting shorts and a tight-fitting tank top that had once been white. In her bare feet she pushed a mop across the hardwood floors, grumbling to herself. She heard the door open and looked up to see Paul standing in the doorway. Even though it wasn't his fault, she glared at him as he came in. As much as Chloe liked a clean house, she hated housework, and this wasn't even her house. This particular space was sparsely decorated with just a few worn pieces of furniture and some bad condo art on the walls. After six months of being sealed up tight with the air conditioner off, it smelled of dust and mildew and needed a good airing out. "What are you doing?" asked Paul, closing the door behind him. "Mopping," she said, her voice flat. "Right. But why are you mopping here? Whose house is this anyway?" "It's one we just added to the roster last week. The cleaning service hasn't had a chance to get in here yet." "I see that," said Paul. "So why're you cleaning it tonight?" "We're cleaning it tonight because the Guidarizzi's decided to make a surprise visit to their winter home in Key West. They're coming in tomorrow afternoon. Every other decent place is filled up, so we have to use this one instead." Why is Chloe mopping? A. Because Paul is coming. B. Because it is her house. C. Because the Guidarizzi's are coming. D. not enough information C So this thing happened today. I am living in a society where there are almost 90 houses and almost all of them are occupied. We have one sweeper hired for whole society to collect waste and sweep out dust from our society roads. BTW her name is Hira masi (my brother calls her diamond masi :p). And she is extremely poor and she lives in those slums where almost nothing is available. She earns 50/100 per house each month. (Source) As she is extremely poor, all the society people help her a lot. From giving 2 times food to giving clothes and giving bonuses on special occasion as much as Rs. 1000, they almost help her in each and every aspect. And this is by far the most incredible thing our society has which is humanity. But the twist comes here. On the other side, she is extremely cunning. She rarely cleans the road, takes rarely wastes from homes, gives excuses that she is sick and does not come for work, etc. She does not do her work properly. She also request money from us saying that her family members are ill as much as Rs 10000, even if they are not. So this thing was discussed in our meeting and there some decided to continue her as she was very poor and some decided to leave her. But my mom today told me a great thing- If a person is doing her work seriously, then we will surely help him in every way, even if it is a matter of money, but the person who is not sincere and not doing work properly, then sometimes we have to step back from humanity and be strict. If the person is honest and he is REALLY in need of help, we should definitely help them. But the person who just fakes that he is in need, we should be strict/ignore them, else they will not do any work, and just simply rely on us. Sometimes, being strict and giving up humanity will make the person grow. The author probably believes that A. Daimond masi is lazy B. Diamond masi is a good worker C. Diamond masi is not a house cleaner D. not enough information A The Texas church where a gunman opened fire during Sunday services, killing 26 and injuring 20, may not reopen. Pastor Frank Pomeroy of the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs told leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention earlier this week that it would be too painful to continue using the church as a place of worship. Pomeroy, who lost his own 14-year-old daughter in the massacre, proposed turning the site into a memorial and building another church on a different site. The final decision on the fate of the building will be made by the denomination's top leaders, who traveled to the rural community in a show of support. But a national Southern Baptist spokesman said the pastor's wishes will be taken into consideration. Other sites of mass shootings have been torn down, including Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, where a gunman killed 20 children and six adults in December 2012. A new school was built elsewhere. A one-room Amish schoolhouse near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, was torn down in 2006, 10 days after an assailant took children hostage and shot and killed five girls ages 6 to 13. The original site of the school is now a pasture. A nearly identical schoolhouse with a security fence was erected nearby. Also Thursday, the father of the Texas gunman broke his silence to say his family is in mourning. Michael Kelley spoke to ABC News on Wednesday from his home in New Braunfels, about 55 kilometers north of Sutherland Springs. He refused to comment further, saying he does not want the "media circus'' surrounding the attack by Devin Patrick Kelley to destroy "our lives, our grandchildren's lives.'' A motive for the carnage remains unclear, but the younger Kelley appears to have targeted the church because it was attended by his wife's family. He died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after being shot and chased by two residents as he was leaving the church. Pomeroy probably believes that A. a new church should be built B. the church should not be closed C. a park would be a good idea D. not enough information

When you stand, keep your back straight and your shoulders rolled back. Try to work standing up if you can to naturally strengthen your back muscles. Dynamic stretching exercises are a good warm-up for running. These increase your range of motion and help prepare your muscles for exercise. Dynamic stretches include: Shoulder circles: slowly move your shoulders forward in a circular motion. Do ten times before rolling them backwards in a similar motion. Side bends: Stand straight with your legs apart. With a straight arm, reach down the side of your legs before coming back to the center. Repeat with the other side of your body. Hip circles: Put your hands on your hips. Make a circle with your hips, keeping your legs and torso still. Leg swings: Balance your weight on your left side of your body. Swing your right leg back and forth rapidly. (You can balance your left hand on a wall if necessary). Do 6-10 times before switching to your other foot. Leg bouncing: Brace your hands against the wall. Quickly bounce on the on the balls of your feet. Your heels should be lifting from the ground. Your arms are an underutilized force that will balance and push you forward. Strength training may be able to increase your overall energy, running economy, and endurance. Try to have two training sessions a week. Some exercises you can try are: Bench press: Lie on a bench with two dumbbells extended above your shoulders. Lower one dumbbell to shoulder height, and slowly lift it back up until your arm is straight. Lower the other dumbbell in the same manner. Bicep curls: Hold a dumbbell in both hands. Stand straight with your elbows near your torso and your palms facing forward. Curl one arm up slowly. Wait a second before lowering it back down. Repeat with the other arm. Dumbbell squat to press: Hold a dumbbell in both hands at shoulder height. Slowly lower into a squat. Rise back up, stretching the dumbbells above your head. Your arms should be straight above your head. Lower the weights back to shoulder height before repeating. Core exercises will increase your energy and provide essential stability to your running. These exercises will often not just give your abs strength, but they can also strengthen your hips, glutes, and legs, which are essential components for a good stride. Some good core exercises are: Plank: Lie down on your stomach. Lift your body until it is resting on your forearms and toes. Your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your toes. Try to hold the pose for at least 20 seconds. Bridging: Lie back on the ground. Your knees should be bent about hip’s width apart. Relax your arms on the floor. Squeeze your glutes. Lift your hips and pelvis off the ground. Your body should form a straight slope from your knees to your neck. Hold for 10 seconds before lowering. Lunge with a medicine ball: Hold the medicine ball with both hands straight in front of your body. Lunge forward, bending the front leg and keeping the back leg straight. Move the medicine ball from right to left across your body before bringing it back to center.
Summary: Improve your posture. Stretch before running. Strengthen your arms. Train your core.

Q: Read the following context and choose the correct option to answer the question. Context: What was the reason behind you becoming a Wiccan? I had very bad experiences with the old angry bearded GOD in the Christian religion. He had turned his back on me. He had betrayed me time and time again. So, I left. Still wanting connection with a higher power, I hungered for connection. I liked communing with the Wiccan Gods. I also liked how They made me feel, at peace, and I felt I had the strength to change my own life for the better. They are always there for me. How did you find it? When I was a teen I heard the word Wicca. I didn’t know what that was. I was curious and decided to investigate it. So, the next day I went to a book store. I asked the lady behind the counter if they had any books on “Wicca.” She got excited and whisked me off to the metaphysical section of the store. She told me she was pagan and started handing me book after book into my arms. Soon I could barely see over the books in my arms. I mumbled behind the books, “Which ONE book would you recommend.” She then handed me Scott Cunningham’s book Wicca, A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner. I purchased the book and took it home. With my dyslexia it was not easy for me to read. But I started reading and plowed through the book. I found many things I was already doing. He talked about things I already understood to be true. The book rang true for me. I dedicated myself to the God and Goddess when I finished the book. Have you ever had any bad experiences after completing a spell? I did a prosperity spell once and got the opposite reaction I was hoping for. I lost all my income! I realized later my mistakes and redid the spell correctly and then got the results I truly wanted. Question: How long after reading did the author start practicing Wicca? Options: - In a year - not enough information - Immediately - Never A: Immediately Q: Read the following context and choose the correct option to answer the question. Context: Chloe's house reminded Paul of a cross between a used bookstore, a computer repair shop, and a college dorm. A wall of bookcases dominated the living room, each shelf crammed with two, sometimes three layers of books, videotapes, CD's and DVD's. More stacks of books and magazines stood in every corner. Paul was certain they would have taken over all the other flat spaces as well, were it not for the half-assembled computers and three dusty old monitors occupying the coffee table, end tables, and everything in between. The only semi-open spaces were the two couches that faced each other from across the room. A large red and black checkered blanket covered one of them, while the other was cracked but still serviceable brown leather. Thrift store purchases both, Paul thought. "The computer stuff belongs to one of my roommates," Chloe said. "She's always fiddling with those things to get better performance or whatever. The books are mostly mine or my other roommate, Kurt's. Come on into the kitchen and we'll rustle up a sandwich." Paul followed her back into the open kitchen area, which (given that he was ostensibly here to have lunch) he was relieved to see was clean. There was clutter in there certainly, but no dirty dishes or leftover foodstuffs appeared in evidence. Along the left wall was a cheap, plastic patio table with long wooden benches on each side and miss-matched chairs at either end. Newspapers, books, and a laptop occupied most of its surface area, but the end closest to Paul seemed clear enough to see actual use as a place for dining. "Is peanut butter ok?" she asked, motioning him towards one of the chairs. "Sure," he said and sat down at the table. As she started to prepare a couple of peanut butter sandwiches on white bread she said, "So, tell me Paul, why are you getting fired tomorrow?" Question: Why does John probably think he is being fired? Options: - He shrugged off the boss to stay late. - He cussed out a coworker. - He is always coming into work late. - not enough information A: He is always coming into work late. Q: Read the following context and choose the correct option to answer the question. Context: I have another guest post for you today. This one comes from Selina from Beautystorm. Beautystorm are proudly the cheapest stockists of Dermalogica products in Australia and provide online skin consultations with their in house Skincare Therapists. Selina will be giving us advice on how to repair sun damaged skin. Whilst we are blessed to be living in such a sun drenched country, here in Australia, as a consequence the majority of us will have sun damaged skin. Here are Selina's tips to repair some of the damage: The severe, Australian suncauses a multitude of cases of serious skin damage every year. However, there are ways, to repair rough, dry, wrinkled skin that may also suffer from redness and brown spots. The very first step to reverse some of that skin damage is some gentle cleansing. Never wash the face with an ordinary bar of soap. This will make the situation worse and cause severe dry skin. In order to wash the sun-damaged skin effectively without causing further injury, use a gentle exfoliating facial cleanser. This will remove, not only dirt and oil, but also the top layer of dead skin cells, providing a nice glow. This will reveal fresh skin cells ready for treatment. After cleansing the skin, follow with a mud mask or a facial mask made specifically for skin that’s been damaged by the sun. The purpose of a mask is to draw out impurities in the skin while adding key ingredients like moisturisers and minerals back into the skin. After gently rinsing the purifying mask, a lotion, cream or serum containing key ingredients should be applied to the skin. The difference between the three is that a lotion is best for daytime use, worn under makeup or for those prone to breakouts. Creams are considered heavier and best used at night or for those with dry skin. Serums are usually highly concentrated formulas that can be used day or night, but a little goes a long way. Those with the most severe sun damaged skin should use them. Question: When will fresh skin cells ready for treatment occur when cleansing skin? Options: - not enough information - after using water - after using a gentle exfoliating facial cleanser - after using soap
A: after using a gentle exfoliating facial cleanser

Have you ever been to a Taylor Swift's concert?
Q:I had this one guy, who enjoyed being a part time bully and part time neutral to me. To say the least he was annoying. He'd take the liberty to hide my backpack, borrow my books without consent, doodle scandalous stuff on my notebooks with a pen and yada yada. So one day, I was showing this cool trick I learned on an anatomy program on the TV to a couple of classmates who used to sit around me. The thing was that you can't flex your ring finger upwards if you put your middle finger under the palm (try that) We were all kids, and soon everyone in the class started staring at us weirdos looking laughing at out hands. The bully noticed it too, and came near to inquire about this hand stuff. I described the trick and he was impressed. And then, I saw our teacher walking up the corridor, just a couple paces behind the class door. So, I asked him (the bully) if he wanted to see another trick and to that he nodded a big yes. Cool, What I did was, that I grabbed his right arm by the thumb and put it on my throat right above the larynx. Then I quickly shifted my grip to his wrist. He without batting an eye, asked what I was doing, but then I started beating the desk with my other hand and made squeaking noises while pushing his hand against my throat harder with every turning head. And voilà! Every one in the class (including the teacher) thought he was smothering me. After a few ifs and buts between him and the teacher, he was summoned at the principal’s chambers, from where, later he was sent home, where presumably judging from the look on his face for the next few days, he was beat to crap by his folks. And after that, never was I ever bothered by anyone in the school.(^^) According to the above context, choose the correct option to answer the following question. Question: What happened to the bully at the end? Options: A. He got sent home B. not enough information C. He passed his test D. He got a reward A:

WASHINGTON — Legal experts cast doubt Tuesday on a list of questions the special counsel purportedly wants to ask President Donald Trump, saying they would expect the veteran prosecutor to ask more and more pointed questions. The New York Times published the list of 44 questions it said special counsel Robert Mueller plans to pose to Trump as part of his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The newspaper reported that the list was compiled by Trump's lawyers based on questions that were read to them by special counsel investigators. The largely open-ended questions range from queries about Trump's firing of former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former FBI director James Comey, to general inquiries into what Trump knew about alleged coordination between his 2016 presidential campaign and Russia. While the list reflects the general line of questioning the special counsel's investigation is believed to be focused on, legal experts said the questions published are not what Mueller — or any prosecutor for that matter — would ask an interview subject. "It doesn't sound like questions that a prosecutor would typically ask, unless it was just a very general information-gathering type of inquiry, and they'd not limit themselves to only those question and reserve the right to ask follow-up questions," said Eric Jaso, a partner at the Spiro Harrison law firm who served as an associate independent counsel during the Whitewater investigation of former President Bill Clinton. The questions, Jaso said, were likely written by Trump's own lawyers, based on a conversation with the special counsel about topics he wants to query. "If Mr. Mueller is going to interview the president, I suspect that he's going to ask rather pointed questions rather than having questions that would allow the president to basically give a narrative and potentially go far afield from the topics that they're trying to focus on," Jaso said. Paul Rosenzweig, an adjunct professor at the George Washington School of Law... According to the above context, choose the correct option to answer the following question. Question: What is probably true about trump? Options: - not enough information - he is tired of the controversy - he is dodging the issue - he believes he is right A:
he is tired of the controversy

Q: In this task, you are given a paper review. Based on the review, your job is to identify language and generate "en" if the review is in English or generate "es" if the review is in Spanish. Note that URLs in the text have been replaced with [Link]. The paper introduces a variation to the CNN-based texture synthesis procedure of Gatys et al. that matches correlations between spatially shifted feature responses in addition to the correlations between feature responses at the same position in the feature maps. The paper claims that this a) improves texture synthesis for textures with long-range regular structures, that are not preserved with the Gatys et al. method b) improves performance on texture inpainting tasks compared to the Gatys et al. method c) improves results in season transfer when combined with the style transfer method by Gatys et al. Furthermore the paper shows that d) by matching correlations between spatially flipped feature maps, symmetry properties around the flipping axis can be preserved. I agree with claim a). However, the generated textures still have some issues such as greyish regions so the problem is not solved. Additionally, the procedure proposed is very costly which makes an already slow texture synthesis method substantially slower. For example, in comparison, the concurrent work by Liu et al. ( A:

Instructions: In this task, you are given a part of an article. Your task is to generate headline (title) for this text. Preferred headlines are under fifteen words. Input: The current information analysis capabilities of legal professionals are still lagging behind the explosive growth in legal document availability through digital means, driving the need for higher efficiency Legal Information Retrieval (IR) and Question Answering (QA) methods. The IR task in particular has a set of unique challenges that invite the use of semantic motivated NLP techniques. In this work, a two-stage method for Legal Information Retrieval is proposed, combining lexical statistics and distributional sentence representations in the context of Competition on Legal Information Extraction/Entailment (COLIEE). The combination is done by means of disambiguation rules, applied over the lexical rankings when those deemed unreliable for a given query. Competition and experimental results indicate small gains in overall retrieval performance using the proposed approach.

In this task, you are given an article. Your task is to summarize the article in a sentence. It follows reports the Democratic Unionist Party wants £2bn extra funding from a Tory-DUP deal at Westminster. Mr Jones described such a deal, to give Theresa May a majority in key Commons votes, as the "great power bribe". Responding, Welsh Secretary Alun Cairns said UK ministers had a "pretty strong record" on funding for Wales. After the Conservatives' failure to win a majority in the general election, they have been locked in talks with the DUP for support to help them survive as a minority government. Sources told the BBC on Wednesday the DUP wanted £1bn investment in the Northern Irish health service and a similar figure for infrastructure projects, although a DUP MP called those figures "wide of the mark". Mr Jones said: "Ah, the great power bribe. "What we're seeing there is an attempt to provide more money for Northern Ireland and, if I were the DUP, I'd do the same thing. "But the reality is you can't give more money to Northern Ireland and not trigger the Barnett formula, which would mean more money for Wales and Scotland." The Barnett formula is a long-running mathematical calculation that distributes money to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Mr Jones added: "I think every underhand way will be found to give more money to Northern Ireland at the expense of Scotland, Wales and indeed the English regions." Welsh Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies has said "any potential incentives considered for one nation... must also be considered for Wales". But Prof Gerry Holtham, an economist and former adviser to the Welsh Government, said the Barnett formula "works in one direction only" - to ensure spending changes in England are reflected in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - and was "just a convention". "If the government decides it's going to do a formula bypass, which it's done on many past occasions, that's what it does," he said. "They will do what they can get away with, basically. If the pressure for fairness is politically significant then they might make some concessions but they really don't need to." The DUP is also reported to be calling on the Treasury to scrap Air Passenger Duty (APD) in Northern Ireland. Such powers have already been transferred to Scotland. Mr Jones, whose Welsh Government owns Cardiff Airport, said: "It's completely irrational that Scotland and Northern Ireland would control Air Passenger Duty, as would England, but Wales wouldn't." Mr Cairns said the current funding settlement for Northern Ireland was "very different" from that for Wales. "Wales has £120 for every £100 that's spent in England, Wales has a funding floor that Northern Ireland doesn't have," he said. "And Wales also has City Deals for the Cardiff Capital Region and the Swansea Bay City Region as well as a commitment to the North Wales Growth Deal - there isn't a City Deal in Northern Ireland. "So that demonstrates we've got a pretty strong record and I hope that is recognised." Pontypridd MP and Labour's Northern Ireland spokesman Owen Smith said any Tory-DUP deal had to be scrutinised. But Westminster politics "can't inhibit getting the peace process up and running" in Northern Ireland, he said. Speaking on BBC Wales' The Wales Report, he said: "Talking about parity between the sorts of treatment that Northern Ireland gets and other parts of the UK isn't what we've done in the past. "Northern Ireland is a special case and it will always need special consideration." Conservative UK ministers will find an "underhand way" to give Northern Ireland more money at Wales' expense, First Minister Carwyn Jones has said. However, it expects retail sales growth to slow down next year, as a result of the fall in sterling prompted by the Brexit vote in June. The weaker pound makes imports more expensive and pushes up inflation. Clothing saw particularly strong growth in sales volumes, while grocers had their best results since January. This latest CBI Distributive Trades Survey covers the last week of November and the first two weeks of December and included the pre-Christmas discounting day, Black Friday on 25 November. Hardware and DIY and internet retailers also reported strong growth. Wholesalers saw their strongest growth in volumes for nearly 18 months. "It's encouraging to see retailers reporting another month of healthy sales growth leading up to the festive season, which rounds off a fairly solid quarter," said Ben Jones, CBI principal economist. However, he added: "While we still expect to see decent growth in the near term, the pressures on retail activity are likely to increase during 2017, as the impact of sterling's depreciation feeds through. "With higher inflation beginning to weigh on households' purchasing power, consumption patterns are likely to shift, creating winners and losers across the retail landscape." Wholesalers reported the strongest growth in volumes for nearly 18 months in the year to December. Last week's official retail sales figures showed volumes jumped by 5.9% in November compared with the same month last year as shoppers took advantage of Black Friday discounts. But higher fuel costs meant the rise was not as strong as in October, when annual retail sales growth hit a 14-year high of 7.2%. UK retail sales volumes rose at their fastest pace since September 2015 in the year to December, according to the employers' organisation the CBI. Campers and hikers have long known the misery ticks can cause. Now scientists at the Roslin Institute aim to find new ways to prevent diseases transmitted by the tiny insect-like creatures. The university will establish the Roslin Wellcome Trust Tick Cell Biobank with the funding from the Wellcome Trust. It says the biobank will house the world's largest collection of tick cell lines, enabling scientists to carry out advanced research. The scientists hope to understand how viruses and bacteria, which are transmitted by ticks and which cause a range of human diseases, can survive for long periods of time within ticks without damaging them. In parts of the world, ticks can transmit a number of severe and potentially deadly diseases to humans and animals, including Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis and Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever. In Britain, cases of Lyme disease are dramatically increasing each year. In the rest of Europe, tick-borne encephalitis is now endemic in 27 countries, including Germany and Croatia. Tick numbers are surging in Europe and scientists warn that changing climate patterns and increasing globalisation could enable them to spread into new areas. The Tick Cell Biobank team and collaborators from seven other European countries have received further funding from the European Union to train a new generation of scientists specialising in ticks and their related diseases. Project leader Professor John Fazakerley said: "Tick-transmitted infections are likely to be increasingly important in the future. Understanding these diseases and training scientists to undertake research on them is important for both human and animal heath".
Scientists at Edinburgh University have been awarded £2.5m to tackle the growing health risk posed by ticks.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Julia Barnett Rice ? Concerns about hearing loss largely focus on excessive noise exposure. But environmental noise is just as unsafe. People living in cities are regularly exposed (against their will) to noise above 85 decibels from sources like traffic subways industrial activity and airports. That’s enough to cause significant hearing loss over time. If you have an hour-long commute at such sound levels your hearing has probably already been affected. Urban life also sustains average background noise levels of 60 decibels which is loud enough to raise one’s blood pressure and heart rate and cause stress loss of concentration and loss of sleep. Sirens are a particularly extreme example of the kind of noise inflicted on people every day: They ring at a sound-pressure level of 120 decibels —a level that corresponds with the human pain threshold according to the World Health Organization. But since the turn of the 20th century protecting human hearing has taken a back seat to securing quiet for those with means and punishing those without. Noise-abatement laws transformed an objective concern about environmental and health conditions into a subjective fight over aesthetic moralism. One of the earliest urban anti-noise campaigns was initiated by Julia Barnett Rice the wealthy well-educated wife of a businessman and publisher. The sound of tugboat horns was causing Rice great annoyance as she tried to relax in her ornate Italianate mansion. But she knew that this appeal would fall on deaf ears so to speak. So she decided to use the poor and sick people languishing in urban hospitals as a scapegoat. Isaac Rice her husband and the publisher of The Forum became a champion of his wife’s crusade. In 1906 he published her piece “An Effort to Suppress Noise ” which amounts to a call for class antagonism. She begins by channeling the pessimistic philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer who likens noise to boorishness: There are people it is true—nay a great many people—who smile at such [sounds] because they are not sensitive to noise; but they are just the very people who are also not sensitive to argument or thought or poetry or art; in a word to any kind of intellectual influence. Who are these insipid people in Rice ’s narrative? The tugboat workers. The piece recounts Rice ’s efforts to ban excessive whistling from aboard their vessels. Rice portrays herself as a dogged crusader pleading for quietude amidst unrelenting clamor. First she sought aid from the law. In the New York City Collector’s Office Law Division she discovered a clause that “seems to vest in the Local Board of Steamboat Inspectors all necessary powers to punish ... any act on the part of a licensed officer that they adjudge to be ‘misconduct’ or ‘negligence’ or ‘unskillfulness.’” In other words Rice attempted to present the call of tugboat horns as professional misconduct. Alas for her the U.S. Local Steamboat Inspectors decided that “the point was not well taken.” Rice then went to the police to start a petition drive. She promised signatures from “poor and rich alike ” but sent establishment personalities to collect them. Among the endorsees were wealthy hospital superintendents who lent credence to Rice ’s claims to help the sick rather than to punish marine workers. The inspectors were still unmoved. When Rice finally interviewed some of the tugboat workers she presented their responses as evidence of wrongdoing rather than as the accounts of workingmen describing their labor. The tugboat captains offered reasonable rationales for sounding whistles. One explained that removing the whistles “would necessitate an extra deckhand to act as messenger to notify the pier hands besides all the time that would be lost.” Another stated “We run a risk of losing a whole tide if we do not rouse the crew on the barge.” And yet another “You must whistle to wake up the crew which you cannot expect to stay on watch day and night.” Rice did not relent. She went to maritime academics and higher-ups who endorsed her and researched her claim. At last she won a victory: The National Board of Steam Navigation passed a resolution prohibiting unnecessary whistle-blowing. The tugboat workers adhered for a day or two and then finding that work became impossible and that the National Board had no way of enforcing the resolution returned to using the horns as often as they liked. Rice had had enough. She proposed a law restricting all but a few scenarios in which tugboats can use their whistles and demanded a standing representative in the Department of Commerce and Labor who would police the waterways for nuisance. In this effort too she came away empty-handed. Finally in one last-ditch effort Rice found success. At a meeting of about 10 000 representatives from the transportation industry the American Association of Masters Mates and Pilots passed a resolution ending the use of “indiscriminate and above all noisy signaling.” The law was replicated at the federal level under the 1907 Bennet Act the first anti-noise bill ratified by Congress. Rice ’s use of the poor and the sick as a tool to pass her legislation played little part in why the authorities finally listened. Researchers had found that the signaling was impacting tugboat navigation making entering and exiting the harbor confusing and unsafe at night. Throughout Rice ’s entire ordeal she presented the tugboat workers as personal enemies rather than potential allies. Her plight for quiet was a moral one; as she saw it the peace had been stolen from her by the mariners. Looking back she comes off as vindictive and elitist. But unfortunately her belligerent approach set the stage for subsequent noise-abatement campaigns in cities around the country. As the historian Emily Thompson explains in her book The Soundscape of Modernity noise-abatement laws singled out relatively powerless people those who were seen to impede “the middle-class vision of a well-ordered city.” Among these was the 1908 General Order 47 issued by New York City Police Commissioner Thomas Bingham. It targeted street ruckus rather than port noise: commotion from street vendors newsboys tin-can kickers roller skaters street musicians automobile horns flat-wheeled streetcars and more. Soon after laws that banned occupational noises preventing people from working for a living in order to protect the quietude appeared in Boston; Little Rock Arkansas; San Francisco; and elsewhere. These fights hit street workers most of whom were immigrants hard. Still the courts upheld the laws. One infamous incident involved a Chicago ordinance that limited peddlers to certain parts of the city and banned them from advertising using shouting. When the courts upheld this law in 1911 the peddlers first went on strike and then rioted causing a mass uprising and widespread damages. The police punished the peddlers the strike was broken and the law remained on the books. Soon there were no more vendors walking the streets. By the 1920s and ’30s noise law after noise law helped clear the urban street. Eventually it ceased to be the domain of people and was overtaken instead by cars—which created their own noise of course. Noise laws also played a key role in the development and implementation of zoning the separating of a city’s parcels of land into “zones” for which a specific purpose (such as residential commercial or industrial) is assigned. A lasting legacy of Rice ’s tugboat campaign was the concept of “quiet zones”—places where noisemaking was especially prohibited because of its potential harm such as around hospitals schools and the houses of the sick. New York set up its first quiet zones in 1908 aided by Rice ’s work in talking to hospital administrators and other cities followed soon after. Violating a quiet zone usually constituted a misdemeanor offense punishable by fine imprisonment or both. Enforcing anti-noise ordinances troubled legislators at both the local and national levels especially when the perpetrator of a noise was an industry vital to a city a conflict that persists to this day. Interfering with commerce in order to protect silence was perfectly acceptable when it limited barkers peddlers or other individuals with little power. But when it came to manufacturers factories or the transporters of goods the risk of disturbing commerce outweighed the benefits to the peace. Also since noise and its treatment in the law was subjective anti-noise legislation was often ineffective. Police in urban areas had much more pressing issues at hand anyway. However the idea of “quiet zones” persisted in urban planning. The first zoning laws took noise into account designating residential zones in places separate from commerce and industry. Like noise-abatement laws zoning was also built on a foundation of inequality. One of its earliest uses created boundaries separating black and white families a practice that persisted even after the Supreme Court struck it down in 1917. Middle-class whites looking to prevent lower-income nonwhites (and to some extent lower-income whites as well) from infiltrating their neighborhoods had to come up with a different legal solution. Today as suburbanites return to cities they bring the fight for quiet along with them. To gentrify a neighborhood also involves quieting it down. The desire for sonic control in and around the home is prioritized above the social fabric of the city a practice exemplified by the targeting of arts and music venues that are cited as being partially responsible for neighborhood revival in the first place. In her book Beyond Unwanted Sound Marie Thompson describes an example from the industrial area of Ouseburn Valley in the United Kingdom. The region had become a hotbed of music and the arts partly because there were few residences to disturb. Eventually several venues closed after repeated run-ins with the law due to noise complaints. These complaints came not from concerned locals but from wealthy newcomers buying into new developments built explicitly to capitalize on the area’s vibrant nightlife. The noise that does the most harm doesn’t come from clubs and house parties—the causes of many garden-variety noise complaints and violations. Ironically Rice did get something right in her crusade: Industrial noise poses the worst problem although individual workers were not to blame for it as Rice had also concluded. The two largest sources of environmental noise are transportation and industrial activity. The cars for which early noise ordinances helped clear the streets have amplified that noise to a universal inescapable level. Industrial areas often designated for land close to the poorest nonwhite areas in a city are even worse. To solve the environmental-noise problem cities and their citizens should learn from the mistakes of the past. Targeting the noise of individuals is ineffective antisocial and fails to eradicate the noise that really hurts people: environmental noise. Solutions to that problem must be systemic requiring a large-scale collective response across many different targets. Despite her intentions Julia Barnett Rice offers a model. She arrived at success only once she began addressing the marine industry at large. Similar approaches can work today. Instead of punishing individual transportation workers whose trucks may be too old a more comprehensive solution could target the Department of Transportation with demands to repave worn roads with the porous asphalt configurations used in Europe to reduce tire noise. Likewise any move toward using renewable energy sources will result in a quieter environment as coal and oil extraction are extremely noisy labors. At the local and state level demanding funding for repairs and improvement to outdated transit infrastructure will greatly reduce the noise caused by trains cars and trucks. Urban-planning approaches to eliminating noise on a city-by-city basis can be as simple as taking a single lane away from cars and giving it to bicycles people or green space. Improving expanding and properly funding public transit removes cars from the road both reducing the sound they produce and replacing it with quieter options like trams and high-speed light-rail. In architecture acoustics should play a greater role in all structures from mundane apartment buildings to the grandest art museums. Noise control should be a consideration from the very first planning stage rather than tacked on as an afterthought.

Q: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational question answers about the paragraph, generate a relevant question to the topic of the paragraph. The paragraph has the prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix `Q:` followed by the answer prefix `A:`. CONTEXT: Flour (+ water, either directly or from other ingredients such as egg white) gives the pastry structure. As you knead the flour, the gluten network develops and results in elasticity. When cooked, water evaporates from the dough leaving a rigid gluten skeleton. Fat does not mix with water and thus stay in blobs in between the gluten network. This weakens the gluten structure, making the pastry crumble.For this reason, you often see in recipes for shortcrust to avoid overmixing the fat. Buttery biscuits such as shortbread crumble more than crackers, which have more water. The same rationale applies to puff pastry. The thin fat layers are impermeable, so water steam gets trapped and exercise pressure upwards, lifting the pastry up.Quoting @GdD in the comments, the punchline is:more fat = crumblier, less fat has more structure. <sep> Q: How does altering the fat-to-flour ratio affect the pastry? A: more fat = crumblier, less fat has more structure A:
Is it only crumblier after it bakes?
