Mining in South Africa was once the main driving force behind the history and development of Africa's most advanced and richest economy. Large-scale and profitable mining started with the discovery of a diamond on the banks of the Orange River in 1867 by Erasmus Jacobs and the subsequent discovery and exploitation of the Kimberley pipes a few years later. Gold rushes to Pilgrim's Rest and Barberton were precursors to the biggest discovery of all, the Main Reef / Main Reef Leader on Gerhardus Oosthuizen's farm Langlaagte, Portion C, in 1886, the Witwatersrand Gold Rush and the subsequent rapid development of the gold field there, the biggest of them all.

Q: The city of Edinburgh grew up around the steep, ragged cliff of the Castle Rock and its easily defended summit. Archaeological excavations have revealed evidence of habitation here as long ago as 900 b.c. Very little, however, is known about the Rock and its inhabitants in the centuries between its first occupation and the time of the MacAlpin kings. A few shadowy details have been left to us by the Romans and by an epic poem from the seventh century. Romans and Britons The Romans invaded Scotland in a.d. 78–84, where they met a fierce group called the Picts, whom they drove north. They consolidated their gains by building Antonine's Wall across the waist of Scotland between the Firth of Forth and the River Clyde in about a.d. Roman legions encountered the strongholds of the Castle Rock and Arthur's Seat, held by a tribe of ancient Britons known as the Votadini. Little is recorded about this group, but they were probably the ancestors of the Gododdin, whose feats are told in a seventh-century Old Welsh manuscript. The capital of the Gododdin was Din Eidyn (the "Fort of Eidyn," almost certainly the Castle Rock), whose name lives on in the Edin- of Edinburgh. Din Eidyn fell to the Angles in 638 and became part of the Anglian kingdom of Northumbria. It was the first of many times that the Fort of Eidyn would change hands between the kingdoms of the north and the south. The MacAlpin Kings Four distinct peoples once inhabited the land now known as Scotland: the Picts in the north, the Britons in the southwest, the invading Angles in the southeast, and the Scots in the west. The Scots were Gaelic-speaking immigrants from the north of Ireland. Kenneth MacAlpin, who ruled as king of Scots at Dunadd, acquired the Pictish throne in 843, uniting Scotland north of the River Forth into a single kingdom. He moved his capital — along with the Stone of Destiny (on which Scottish kings were crowned) — to the sacred Pict site of Scone, close to Perth. His great-great-great-grandson, Malcolm II (1005–1034), defeated the Angles at the Battle of Carham in 1018 and extended Scottish territory as far south as the River Tweed. <sep>What do we know about the Votadini?<sep>They held Castle Rock and Arthur's Seat
A: | Yes |

Q: The daughter of a Florida man who became paralyzed after falling from a roof while chasing a monkey that had stolen his favorite Pittsburgh Steelers hat in Bali says the family is “hopeful” that he’ll regain the use of his body.
Jeff “Swede” Swedenhjelm is fighting for his life in a Malaysian hospital after a 33-foot fall from a pavilion in Bali left him paralyzed from the chest down. Now, his daughter, Lyric, says that although things are looking up for the man, he has a long road to recovery ahead.

“He’s been very strong and very optimistic so we’re feeling really good that he’ll be able to walk again if he just gets the rehab that he needs,” Lyric, 21, tells PEOPLE of her father. “We all know how hard it is for him but he doesn’t really say how hard it is. He really just says that he’s gonna be back on his feet soon.”
Courtesy Lyric Swedenhjelm
She adds: “He really understands that the way that he got into this mess is honestly pretty silly, but the seriousness kind of takes away from that.”
Swedenhjelm first encountered the group of monkeys on the Indonesian island when he took shelter under a pavilion to get out of the rain on Dec. 18, Swedenhjelm’s friend, Scott Wells, revealed in a recent Facebook Live video.
“One reached down and grabbed his favorite hat off his head. His favorite Steelers hat off his head — which, if you know him, he ain’t just gonna give that thing up,” Wells said in the video. “So he climbed up on the roof of the pavilion, a huge pavilion. It was multi-stories, from what he told me, and he walked on the roof.”
Lyric (left) and Jeff Swedenhjelm Courtesy Lyric Swedenhjelm
Wells continued: “[He] got up to the second floor, got up to the third floor and he was trying to get the monkey to just drop it and run away. That’s the last memory he had.”
Villagers took Swedenhjelm, who has lived in Bali for at least a year, to a local hospital where he was in a medically-induced coma for six hours. He has since undergone several surgeries, some of which, doctors said, could reverse the paralysis.
“He should be able to sit up and move his hands in the next couple days, but we aren’t completely positive,” Lyric tells PEOPLE. “[Doctors are] hoping that with relieving the pressure from his spinal cords, the paralysis will go away — but only time will tell.”
Lyric says her father’s recent improvements are only the beginning of Swedenhjelm’s recovery.
“Only extensive rehab is gonna get him walking again so that’s our goal,” she says. “To really just try to raise enough money to get him the rehab that he needs so he can get back on his feet.”
The family set up a GoFundMe page to cover Swedenhjelm’s medical and transportation expenses. Along with raising more than $75,000 for Swedenhjelm’s recovery, the family has organized several pub crawls in his honor and have posted several updates on his health to social media. ||||| Jeff "Swede" Swedenhjelm fell 33 feet Monday while chasing a monkey across a rooftop. The monkey had stolen his favorite Steelers cap.
A former Destin man known as the life of the party and a huge Pittsburgh Steelers fan is fighting for his life in a hospital on the Indonesian island of Bali.
Jeff "Swede" Swedenhjelm fell 33 feet Monday while chasing a monkey across a rooftop. The monkey had stolen his favorite Steelers cap.
Villagers found Swede and brought him to a local hospital, where he was diagnosed with severe damage to his spinal cord. He currently is paralyzed from the chest down.
"Our utmost concern is to get Swede out of Bali and into a country with a spinal specialist," said his daughter, Lyric Swedenhjelm, who is a college student.
She said the medical care in Bali is what one might expect in a third world country, and that her father didn't even have an MRI for almost 24 hours after the accident.
Swedenhjelm is in a medically induced coma and is on a ventilator, his daughter said. He also has pneumonia.
Her father has no medical insurance and no money, Lyric said. He left Destin several years ago to work in Bali. She and her mother still live in Destin.
"He has a great team of friends that have been by his side," she said. "He's very popular, a social guy, always out and about organizing parties and events."
Lyric, who turns 21 Tuesday, said traveling to Bali is very expensive and that they are trying to channel all resources into having her father flown to Singapore for better medical care.
They have started a fundraising page on GoFundMe, which already has raised $26,000 It will cost about $30,000 to get him to Singapore and another $30,000 to get him treatment. The goal on the page is $100,000. To donate, visit the page by CLICKING HERE.
"All I want for Christmas or my birthday is for my dad to get this surgery as soon as possible," Lyric said.
His GoFundMe page shows him lying unconscious in a hospital bed. Under it, someone wrote what they thought the 40-year-old would say if he could.
"I am hopeful that the time we shared on this wonderful planet has given me enough love and respect in your heart to make you want to help. I have never been the one to ask for help, especially in monetary form, but any help will be taken to heart. Thank you all in advance. One Love. <3 Swede." ||||| A father, friend, brother, and die hard Steelers fan needs your help right now. Jeff ‘Swede’ Swedenhjelm, age 40, had been traveling around southeast Asia the last 12 months when, on December 18th, he had a terrible accident, falling over 30 feet from the roof of a pavilion as he was attempting to retrieve his favorite Steelers hat from a thieving monkey in Bali, Indonesia. The fall happened during a six hour walk, after he lost the keys to his scooter, to a bar that he knew would be airing the highly anticipated week 15 showdown between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots. Villagers found Swede unconscious on the ground and immediately transported him to the nearest hospital. The fall left Swede in a coma for 6 hours and fractured and displaced his C6 vertebrate rendering him paralyzed from the chest down.
Swede's family and friends rallied to raise enough money to get him an emergency medevac flight to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and to pay for his surgery. He is currently in the ICU at a hospital in Malaysia recovering from the surgery and fighting off a bad lung infection. We have exhausted the funds that have been raised up to this point and desperately need to raise more money to pay for his expensive ICU stay as well as his intensive rehab. As of now he has not reagained any movement or sensation that was lost so we know that this is going to be a long, hard road back to recovery for Swede. We are confident that his positive outlook and determination are going to get him back on his feet again. We just need your help to facilitate that.

A: | Friends and relatives of an American man paralyzed after falling from a roof in Indonesia have this explanation: A monkey stole his favorite hat. Jeff "Swede" Swedenhjelm had taken shelter from rain under a pavilion in Bali on Dec. 18 when he encountered several monkeys, one of which plucked a Pittsburgh Steelers hat from his head, reports People. "If you know him, he ain't just gonna give that thing up," says a friend, adding the 40-year-old Bali resident later admitted to climbing to the top of a three-story pavilion in the hope of getting it back.

Problem: Bin Laden reportedly discussed the planes operation with KSM and Atef in a series of meetings in the spring of 1999 at the al Matar complex near Kandahar. KSM's original concept of using one of the hijacked planes to make a media statement was scrapped, but Bin Laden considered the basic idea feasible. Bin Laden, Atef, and KSM developed an initial list of targets. These included the White House, the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon, and the World Trade Center. According to KSM, Bin Laden wanted to destroy the White House and the Pentagon, KSM wanted to strike the World Trade Center, and all of them wanted to hit the Capitol. No one else was involved in the initial selection of targets. Bin Laden also soon selected four individuals to serve as suicide operatives: Khalid al Mihdhar, Nawaf al Hazmi, Khallad, and Abu Bara al Yemeni. During the al Matar meetings, Bin Laden told KSM that Mihdhar and Hazmi were so eager to participate in an operation against the United States that they had already obtained U.S. visas. KSM states that they had done so on their own after the suicide of their friend Azzam (Nashiri's cousin) in carrying out the Nairobi bombing. KSM had not met them. His only guidance from Bin Laden was that the two should eventually go to the United States for pilot training. Hazmi and Mihdhar were Saudi nationals, born in Mecca. Like the others in this initial group of selectees, they were already experienced mujahideen. They had traveled together to fight in Bosnia in a group that journeyed to the Balkans in 1995. By the time Hazmi and Mihdhar were assigned to the planes operation in early 1999, they had visited Afghanistan on several occasions. Khallad was another veteran mujahid, like much of his family. His father had been expelled from Yemen because of his extremist views. Khallad had grown up in Saudi Arabia, where his father knew Bin Laden, Abdullah Azzam, and Omar Abdel Rahman (the "Blind Sheikh"). <sep>Besides Bin Laden, KSM, and Atef, who else was involved in discussing the initial selection of targets?<sep>Azzam

My first day of high school was like any other first day: registering, finding new classmates, meeting new teachers, and seeking new friends. During lunch, I ran into my first snag of the day. At the dining hall, as the checkout lady asked for my money, I realized that I had forgotten my money. When I told her about it, I heard a voice behind me. I turned around and there stood a teacher telling her he will pay for my lunch. He told me his name was Mr. Peter Walker, and said, "If you get a chance, you should take my history class." I recognize his name, and told him I was in his class later that day. Mr. Walker befriended me on the very first day of school at a very crucial time of the day---lunch! He always told us we should do more than we ever thought. He pushed us to do all things better. He coached many sports, and sponsored many after class activities. If we were interested in something, he would find a way to expose us to it, say, inviting speakers, taking us on field trips, or obtaining information for us. Two years later, my junior year in school was clicking along nicely when one day I was riding my motorcycle and I was hit by a car. I spent six days in hospital and was at home in bed for two weeks before returning to school. Mr. Walker stopped by the hospital each day with my work from my teachers. Once I was at home, he would bring my work too. After high school, I attended the United States Army Airborne School in Georgia.

A neighbor walks by the residence where a girl believed to be 9 years old was found dead, wrapped in blankets in the kitchen of the home at the Happy Home apartment complex Tuesday, June 10, 2014, in Houston. The girl's body was discovered about 5:45 p.m. Monday evening when Houston firefighters were sent to make a welfare check at the apartment in the 10100 block of Club Creek, southeast of Beechnut and the West Sam Houston Parkway. Police said neighbors told investigators they had not seen the girl for months. Tuesday, June 10, 2014, in Houston.
Shadow Melendez, 6, stands outside the house where Ayahna Comb's body was found June 9 in her mother's refrigerator.
The little girl went to the refrigerator in her southwest Houston apartment, in search of a snack - perhaps some fruit or milk.
But when the 5-year-old opened the door, she saw the body of her older sister, wrapped in one of her blankets, a child advocate caseworker said in a custody hearing Wednesday.
It was the latest, most grisly twist in the case of Ayahna Comb, a 9-year-old with cerebral palsy whose body was found Monday in a refrigerator. The detail elicited gasps and sobs from Ayahna's family members, who were in court seeking custody of the younger girl.
The saga began on Monday after police were called to the apartment of 34-year-old Amber Keyes in the Happy Home Apartments in the 10100 block of Club Creek. Keyes lived there with her two daughters.
Police said they received a call after a neighbor, who had become concerned after not seeing Ayahna for several months, entered Keyes' apartment and found the girl in her refrigerator, dead and wrapped in blankets.
"There were concerns that the child had been in the refrigerator for some time," said Cora Christiaans, from Child Protective Services.
The curly-haired girl all but slipped off the face of the earth. In court, authorities said Ayahna hadn't been to school or seen a doctor in two years. Investigators said relatives hadn't seen her since late last year.
Keyes told authorities that on Jan. 29, about 3 in the morning, she found Ayahna not breathing, the caseworker said. The mother tried CPR.
"She stated that as 6 a.m. approached, … she placed the deceased child in her bed and covered her with a blanket and took her sibling off to school," Christiaans said. "After that, she sat with the deceased child's body for some time, and then decided to clear out a drawer in the refrigerator and place her body in there."
First child taken away
Keyes had come under CPS scrutiny before. In 2002, agency spokeswoman Estella Olguin said, another case arose involving her then 1-year-old daughter.
In that instance, CPS received a report that the man Keyes was dating was abusing the girl, Olguin said Wednesday.
"The mom didn't do what she needed to do to demonstrate she would be able to protect her," Olguin said.
In 2004, a relative adopted the child and the agency closed the case, she said. "After 2004, we had no further dealings with this mom, and that was prior to Ayahna being born or her 5-year-old sister."
Why Keyes placed her daughter in the refrigerator is unclear, but one psychology professor said her previous experience with CPS could have contributed.
"The CPS system is one that inspires deep-seated anxiety and fear in parents who have been involved in the system before," said Susan Henney, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Houston-Downtown and a former CPS caseworker.
But there are bigger questions, Henney said: "Why didn't anyone notice she was gone? Where did we go wrong?"
Medical examiners told CPS that Ayahna's body was emaciated and thin, weighing just 14 pounds when she was found, Christiaans said, under questioning from Danielle Davis, an assistant county attorney. They also said the body was in the beginning stages of decomposition, she said.
When Ayahna's sister found the body is unclear.
The news left Comb's family distraught.
"I've been asking Amber different things about my niece, and all she's been saying is 'She's OK.' It really affected me someone could lie for so long," Ayahna's aunt, Kleyahla Richardson, said Wednesday evening.
Keyes was not in court and did not answer calls seeking comment.
She voluntarily went to police and gave a statement to investigators Tuesday night, said Kese Smith, a spokesman for the Houston Police Department. Keyes is cooperating with the investigation and has not been charged, he said.
"(The detectives) are going to finish their investigation before anyone is charged," he said.
Nevertheless, the circumstances surrounding Ayahna's death led CPS to seek custody of her sister.
Keyes and the girls' father, Armand Comb, began dating about 10 years ago but split up about six years ago, said Kathy Comb, his mother.
Family visits ceased
In photos from happier times, the girl could be seen with her relatives in the modified stroller they used to push her around.
But shortly after Christmas, Ayahna's mother stopped bringing her to family gatherings, and Christiaans said no one in Comb's family had seen her in five or six months.
The younger girl often visited her father's relatives. They saw Ayahna less frequently, one family member said.
Kathy Comb, the girl's paternal grandmother, said she was devastated by Ayahna's death.
Armand Comb had told reporters he had last seen Ayahna about two months ago. In court, he repeated that assertion, which brought head shakes from several relatives, who said he had suffered a seizure about that time that left him hospitalized for two weeks.
"He doesn't know," said Sandra Gill Clark, a family member, explaining that the seizure had left him with memory problems.
Comb also told Judge David Farr that he had several arrests for cocaine use and suffered from anxiety and depression. He had hoped that his family could take custody of his younger daughter, but CPS said his criminal background as well as the fact that two people living in his house had criminal backgrounds were reasons it was seeking custody of the child.
"All these factors, we do take them into consideration," said Olguin.
Another hearing is scheduled for June 19.
"CPS is making it seem like we brushed (Ayahna) off," Richardson said Wednesday. "I kept asking about her, but (Amber) always told me she was with a family member."
Dale Lezon contributed to this report. ||||| Police investigating death of a child in southwest Houston have finally spoken to the young girl's mother.Ayahna Comb, 9, hadn't been seen in months. It took that long for anyone to look for her.When they did, a family friend found her lifeless body wrapped in a blanket inside the refrigerator at her southwest Houston apartment. The last time her father says he saw her was two months ago."I picked her up, hugged her, talked to her. Then I had to go," said Armand Comb, the girl's father.But he says he thought he had talked to her since then."I'd been on the phone and I was singing her songs and stuff and the whole time she was lying," said Comb.Ayahna had cerebral palsy, and Comb says Ayahna's mother, Amber Keyes, would tell him their daughter was responding with a smile when he was on the phone, but now he doesn't know if he was talking to her at all.The couple also has a 5-year-old daughter who is now in CPS custody. An emergency custody hearing is scheduled for Wednesday to determine a more permanent arrangement. A CPS spokeswoman says the agency has had no previous contact with this family.Keyes voluntarily went and talked to investigators Tuesday. She was then released with no charges.Houston police are awaiting autopsy results to determine how the little girl died. |||||
Solution: | The emaciated body of a 9-year-old girl with cerebral palsy has been found stuffed in her mom's refrigerator. Amber Keyes, 34, discovered her daughter Ayahna Comb wasn't breathing in January and "decided to clear out a drawer in the refrigerator and place her body in there," a Child Protective Services rep said at a hearing yesterday, according to the Houston Chronicle. A family friend recently saw the body and alerted police, who found her 14-pound body, "in the beginning stages of decomposition," in a search of the apartment Monday. A grim detail: The girl's 5-year-old sister had apparently discovered the body, wrapped in blankets, earlier while searching for a snack, a child advocate caseworker said. Ayahna's father, Armand Comb, says he saw his daughter two months ago—"I picked her up, hugged her, talked to her," he told KTRK—but family members say he had a seizure around that time that affected his memory. Since that time, he says, he thought he'd continued to speak to his daughter: "I'd been on the phone and I was singing her songs and stuff and the whole time she was lying," he said of Keyes, who claimed at the time that their daughter was smiling on the other end of the line. Keyes is cooperating with the investigation and detectives "are going to finish their investigation before anyone is charged," a police rep says. CPS now has temporary custody of Ayahna's younger sister, and family members are seeking custody. |

Input: ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistani police arrested former president Pervez Musharraf on Friday to face allegations he overstepped his powers while in office, marking a dramatic break with a political culture in which military rulers have remained untouchable.
The one-time army chief had hoped to rekindle a degree of influence by standing in a general election in May, but has instead become ensnared in a showdown with judges who fought bruising battles with him while he was still in office.
A magistrate had raised the stakes earlier on Friday when he ordered Musharraf be placed under house arrest for two days before he is due to appear in court on allegations of illegally detaining judges during a crackdown on the judiciary in 2007.
Musharraf is accused of violating the constitution by placing judges under house arrest after he sacked the chief justice and imposed emergency rule.
Musharraf’s office said the charges against him are baseless and have been cooked up by sections of what it described as an “overzealous judiciary” and “unscrupulous lawyers”.
“The allegations leveled against the former president in judges detention case are false and politically motivated,” the office said in a statement.
One of Musharraf’s lawyers said he would file a petition to overturn the arrest order at the Supreme Court later on Friday.
Judges had signaled their intent to take a tough line with Musharraf on Friday when they ordered his case be heard in an anti-terrorism court on the grounds that detaining judges could be considered an attack on the state.

Police later transferred Musharraf into custody at a guest house at their headquarters in Islamabad after a senior officer failed to issue paperwork necessary for him to remain under detention at his home, said his spokesman, Mohammad Amjad.
“He’s been shifted to a police guest house for two days of remand,” Amjad said.
Pakistani television broadcast footage of Musharraf leaving his farmhouse residence at an exclusive estate on the edge of Islamabad in a black SUV escorted by police vehicles.
The spectacle of a man who once embodied the army’s control over Pakistan being forced to answer to judges was a potent symbol of the way power dynamics have shifted in Pakistan, which has been ruled by the military for more than half its history.
FIRST TRANSITION BETWEEN CIVILIAN GOVERNMENTS
The May 11 general election will be the first transition between elected civilian-led governments in Pakistan.
Musharraf seized power in a coup in 1999 and resigned in 2008. He returned to Pakistan after almost four years of self-imposed exile in London and Dubai last month to stand for the National Assembly but was disqualified by election officials earlier this week.
While the sight of a former army commander being arrested is sure to rankle some in the military, who see the armed forces as the only reliable guarantor of Pakistan’s stability, Musharraf’s ill-starred return has bemused some former comrades.

“I don’t think the army was in favor of him returning and tried to dissuade him,” said General Hamid Khan, a former senior army commander. “But he decided to come, and now he has to face this. The army is staying out of it.”
However, the order to place Musharraf under house arrest was surprising in a nation where the army still largely controls security policy and where support for the armed forces is equated with patriotism.
He faces a raft of other legal challenges, including allegations that he failed to provide adequate security to prevent the assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto in 2007. He has also been accused of treason for his decision to suspend the constitution and impose emergency rule. ||||| Media playback is unsupported on your device Media caption A district court judge ordered General Musharraf to be held under house arrest, as Orla Guerin reports
Pakistan's former military ruler Pervez Musharraf has been arrested on charges relating to the unlawful detention of judges in 2007.
He appeared at a district court on Friday morning amid heavy security.
He was initially placed under house arrest at his home in Islamabad but later transferred to the police headquarters in the city.
Mr Musharraf has described the cases against him as politically motivated.
Thursday's order to arrest him was an unprecedented move against a former army chief who ruled the country for almost a decade, the BBC's Orla Guerin in Islamabad says.
Although he was present at court when the warrant was issued, police made no attempt to arrest him and he rapidly returned to his home on the outskirts of the city.
He was finally arrested on Friday morning and appeared at court, where a judge ruled that he should be held in custody for two days.
The decision to move him from his home to police headquarters appears to be largely procedural. He is expected to appear before an anti-terrorism court in the next 48 hours.
His legal team have said they will challenge the order in Pakistan's Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, members of Pakistan's Senate passed a resolution that the former president should be tried on charges of high treason relating to his declaration of a state of emergency in 2007.
Candidacy rejected
Last month Mr Musharraf returned from years of self-imposed exile hoping to lead his All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) party into the general election next month.
Earlier this week his candidacy was rejected in Chitral, one of four seats he had applied to contest.
Mr Musharraf had already failed in an attempt to stand in three other seats.
The case for which he has been arrested relates to his controversial decision to dismiss judges - including Chief Justice Mohammad Iftikhar Chaudhry - when he imposed emergency rule in 2007.
He also faces several other criminal cases and had been trying to stave off arrest ever since he returned.
The Pakistani Taliban have also vowed to assassinate the former president, who seized power in a 1999 coup. |||||
Output: | Former Pakistan leader Pervez Musharraf has been put under house arrest for two days following a court order yesterday, the BBC reports. The order was related to his 2007 effort to place judges under house arrest. Musharraf turned himself in this morning and sought house arrest instead of jail, a lawyer says, noting that the ex-ruler is due in an anti-terror court in two days. Seeking judges' detention could be deemed an attack on Pakistan. The move against Musharraf marks the toughest stance the courts have yet taken against one of the country's former military leaders, Reuters notes. He plans to launch a Supreme Court challenge against the order. |

Question: I grew up in Jamaica Plain, an urban community located on the outskirts of Boston, Massachusetts. In the 1940's it was a wholesome, specific little community. It was my home and I loved it there; back then I thought I would never leave. My best friend Rose and I used to collectively dream about raising a family of our own someday. We had it all planned out to live next door to one another. Our dream remained alive through grade school, high school, and even beyond. Rose was my maid of honor when I got married in 1953 to the love of my life, Dick. Even then she joked that she was just one perfect guy short of being married, thus bringing us closer to our dream. Meanwhile, Dick aspired to be an officer in the Marines and I fully supported his ambitions. I realized that he might be stationed far away from Jamaica Plain, but I told him I would relocate and adjust. The idea of experiencing new places together seemed somewhat romantic to me. So, in 1955, Dick was stationed in Alaska and we relocated. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. Rose and I remained in touch for a few years by regular phone call but after a while we lost track of one another. Back in the 1950's it was a lot more difficult to stay in touch with someone over a long distance, especially if you were relocating every few years. There were no email addresses or transferable phone number and directory lookup services were available at best. I thought of her several times over the years. Once in the mid 1960's ,when I was visiting the Greater Boston area, I tried to determine her whereabouts but my search turned up empty-handed. Jamaica Plain had changed drastically in the 10 years I was gone. A pretty obvious shift in income demographics was affecting my old neighborhood. My family had moved out of the area, as did many of the people I used to know. Rose was nowhere to be found. 52 years passed and we never spoke. I've since raised a family of five, all of whom now have families of their own, and Dick passed away a few... The writer failed to find Rose in the mid of 1960's, because _ ? A) Rose left her homeland. B) Rose wouldn't like to see her C) the surroundings there had changed a lot. D) they lost in touch for a long time

In this task, you are given Wikipedia articles on a range of topics, we ask you to write a question based on the content of the articles that can be answered in a binary manner i.e. True or False.
One example: Property tax -- Property tax or 'house tax' is a local tax on buildings, along with appurtenant land. It is and imposed on the Possessor (not the custodian of property as per 1978, 44th amendment of constitution). It resembles the US-type wealth tax and differs from the excise-type UK rate. The tax power is vested in the states and is delegated to local bodies, specifying the valuation method, rate band, and collection procedures. The tax base is the annual rental value (ARV) or area-based rating. Owner-occupied and other properties not producing rent are assessed on cost and then converted into ARV by applying a percentage of cost, usually four percent. Vacant land is generally exempt. Central government properties are exempt. Instead a 'service charge' is permissible under executive order. Properties of foreign missions also enjoy tax exemption without requiring reciprocity. The tax is usually accompanied by service taxes, e.g., water tax, drainage tax, conservancy (sanitation) tax, lighting tax, all using the same tax base. The rate structure is flat on rural (panchayat) properties, but in the urban (municipal) areas it is mildly progressive with about 80% of assessments falling in the first two brackets.
Solution is here: is house tax and property tax are same
Explanation: The question generated asks whether the house tax and property tax are the same and can be answered by reading the passage. Additionally, it has a binary answer and hence the generated question is correct.

Question: Today many people say that women have the same chance as men in society. But this was not always so. In the past, women all over the world had to fight to get the same chance as men in education and jobs. Many people said that women should not receive much education because they would not do as well as men when they went to work. One woman who showed that women should have the same chance was Marie, a scientist. In the 1800s scientists knew that a metal, uranium, gave off radiation. They also knew how much radiation came from his element. But they didn't know what this radiation was like; they wondered why and how uranium gave off radiation. Marie Curie set out to answer these questions. In one of her experiments she was studying a certain material which, she knew, contained uranium, But it gave off 4 times as much radiation as usually does. What could explain this fact? Marie Curie thought that there must be another source of radiation in this material. In 1898 Marie Curie set out to find out this new source of radiation, which she named "radium". Her husband, who was also a scientist, helped her. They set up a laboratory in an old building behind a school. For four years Curies searched, doing many experiments, And one morning in 1902 Marie found the source of the radiation. Marie Curie proved to the world that there was element that gave off radiation. And she also proved to the world that, if women are given truly equal chance, they can really help society. The Curies found the element radium . A) with other scientists' help B) by asking some famous scientists C) by doing many experiments D) with their teachers' help

Input: A handful of Bronze Age relics has fostered an assumption that prehistoric settlers inhabited Ibiza thousands of years ago. Greater evidence of such a people is found on Mallorca and Menorca than on Ibiza, but one of the Balearics' most important sites is actually on the island of Formentera, where the megalithic monument/tomb of Ca Na Costa has been dated to 2000 b.c. Ibiza's key location between Africa and ancient Iberia made it a convenient stopover for Mediterranean seafarers, such as the Phoenician traders, who called the island Ibosim. The Greeks dubbed it Ebysos, the Romans called it Ebusus, and the Moors, Yebisah. The Carthaginians: A detailed history of the island doesn't begin until it became a colony of Carthage in the 7th century b.c. . The Carthaginians originally came from the area comprising present-day Lebanon, and from their bases in North Africa and what's now Spain, they challenged the Roman Empire for domination of the Mediterranean region. Their interest in Ibiza lay partly in its vast salt flats, which to this day remain the source of a profitable industry. They capitalized on the natural resources by using the salt to cure fish, which they exported to their home country. The Carthaginians also carried out lead mining and continued to be of significance up until this century. It is believed that the lead pellets which were used by the Carthaginian general Hannibal were made on Ibiza. The Carthaginians also considered the island a holy place, and here in great splendour they buried thousands of their citizens in a huge necropolis on the Puig des Molins (Hill of the Windmills) below the Dalt Vila (Old Town) of Ibiza. Under the gnarled olive trees archaeologists have uncovered a treasure trove of statues, jewellery, pitchers, tools, and coins, which are now displayed in the town's two archaeological museums. The Romans never really infiltrated Ibiza, and even after the defeat of Hannibal in 202 b.c. during the Second Punic War their influence was restrained. Only with the fall of Carthage in 146 b.c. did they manage to make inroads, but, as local historians stress, Ibiza was neither conquered nor annexed by Rome, but confederated, retaining remarkable autonomy. For centuries to come the old Carthaginian traditions were allowed to continue on Ibiza alongside the new Roman way of life. <sep>What historic group hailing from present day Lebanon, settled on the island in 7th century BC?<sep>Ebysos

Another mosque was defaced and left with a fake grenade in the driveway.
Both acts of vandalism took place in the same California city, about an hour west of where the San Bernardino terror attack took place this month.
And Hawthorne police said both incidents are now classified as hate crimes.
Early Sunday morning, Hawthorne police received a call about vandalism and a possible explosive device in front of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Baitus-Salaam Mosque, the Police Department said.
When officers arrived, they found what looked like a grenade and evacuated the area. But the object turned out to be a fake plastic grenade.
Someone had also spray-painted "Jesus" across the mosque's fence.
The same day, another mosque -- the Islamic Center of Hawthorne -- was found vandalized, with "Jesus is the Way" spray-painted on the front of the building.

Hawthorne police believe both crimes took place overnight.
The FBI and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department are working with Hawthorne police in the investigation.
"Investigators will work to identify the person or group responsible, the motivation and whether religious bias was a factor," the FBI said.
"All evidence will be reviewed by state and federal prosecutors to determine whether a violation under federal civil rights statutes occurred. The FBI is committed to ensure law-abiding citizens are protected and to deter those who would threaten them."
Hawthorne police said that after the San Bernardino attack, the department has communicating more closely with local Islamic centers.
"The Department will continue to closely support our faith-based partners and work to assure the safety of its members," Hawthorne police said. |||||
Solution: | In what the FBI and local police are treating as a hate crime, two California mosques in the same city were vandalized with pro-Christian graffiti over the weekend. On Sunday morning, "Jesus Is the Way" was found painted on the front of one mosque in Hawthorne, and the word "Jesus" was on the fence of another, where police found a grenade that turned out to be fake, the Los Angeles Times reports. Police in Hawthorne, which is about an hour away from San Bernardino, say they've been communicating more closely with Islamic centers since the massacre and are working with the FBI and the LA County Sheriff's Department on this investigation, reports CNN. Last week, a Coachella mosque was set on fire and a pig's head was dumped in front of a Philadelphia mosque amid what Council on American-Islamic Relations spokesman Ibrahim Hooper tells the New York Times was an "unprecedented spike in anti-Muslim incidents" after the attacks in Paris and San Bernardino. He blames the surge on heated rhetoric from Donald Trump and others. "Right after 9/11, anti-Muslim hate was on the fringes of society, and now it has been brought right into the mainstream," Hooper says. "It's almost acceptable now to hate Islam and Muslims, and now we see the results." (A Texas group posted the addresses of Muslims and people it labeled "Muslim sympathizers.") |

Can we draw the following hypothesis from the context?
Context:
The compilers of the OED point out that they merely record the description of how the word is used, rather than prescribe how it should be used. The term, McJob, has been in usage at least 20 years, they say. It was popularised in 1991 in Douglas Coupland's novel Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture as one of the margin definitions. Here it was described as "a low-pay, low-prestige, low-dignity, low benefit, no-future job in the service sector. Frequently considered a satisfying career choice by people who have never held one."
Hypothesis: There is a novel named after Generation X. | Yes |
Can we draw the following hypothesis from the context?

In this task, you are given Wikipedia articles on a range of topics, we ask you to write a question based on the content of the articles that can be answered in a binary manner i.e. True or False.
One example: Property tax -- Property tax or 'house tax' is a local tax on buildings, along with appurtenant land. It is and imposed on the Possessor (not the custodian of property as per 1978, 44th amendment of constitution). It resembles the US-type wealth tax and differs from the excise-type UK rate. The tax power is vested in the states and is delegated to local bodies, specifying the valuation method, rate band, and collection procedures. The tax base is the annual rental value (ARV) or area-based rating. Owner-occupied and other properties not producing rent are assessed on cost and then converted into ARV by applying a percentage of cost, usually four percent. Vacant land is generally exempt. Central government properties are exempt. Instead a 'service charge' is permissible under executive order. Properties of foreign missions also enjoy tax exemption without requiring reciprocity. The tax is usually accompanied by service taxes, e.g., water tax, drainage tax, conservancy (sanitation) tax, lighting tax, all using the same tax base. The rate structure is flat on rural (panchayat) properties, but in the urban (municipal) areas it is mildly progressive with about 80% of assessments falling in the first two brackets.
Solution is here: is house tax and property tax are same
Explanation: The question generated asks whether the house tax and property tax are the same and can be answered by reading the passage. Additionally, it has a binary answer and hence the generated question is correct.

Input: Police are now searching for a possible suspect in a string of shooting deaths in Tampa's Seminole Heights neighborhood after video emerged from just before the latest killing.
Interested in Seminole Heights Murders? Add Seminole Heights Murders as an interest to stay up to date on the latest Seminole Heights Murders news, video, and analysis from ABC News. Add Interest
Four people have been shot and killed in Seminole Heights in just six weeks, according to police. After the first killing, the Oct. 9 shooting of 22-year-old Benjamin Mitchell, police released surveillance video of an individual repeatedly flipping and staring at a cellphone shortly after Mitchell was killed, labeling the subject as a person of interest.
Tampa Police Department
Police are now considering that individual a suspect after video taken before the killing of 60-year-old Robert Felton on Tuesday morning appears to show the same person, interim Tampa Police Chief Brian Dugan said at a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
The person in the video, taken at 4:51 a.m. Tuesday, "moments before" Felton was killed, appears to have the same gait and manner of dress as the individual in the earlier video, Dugan said. After Felton was shot, witnesses described the suspect as a black man with a tall, thin build and dressed in all black clothing, Dugan said.
Tampa Police Department
He said the person of interest was "nonchalantly walking" in both videos, saying the individual may be "able to flip a switch and go out and murder someone," based on the person's casual manner.
"Look how they're looking at their phone," Dugan said, adding that the individual could be "able to put that away, hit a switch and go out and gun someone down."

Police are not calling the suspect a serial killer because they can't determine whether the same person committed all the murders, Dugan said, adding that authorities are "pretty convinced" that the suspect was involved in at least Mitchell's and Felton's.
"Someone has to know who this individual is," he said, citing the suspect's "unique walk" and "unique posture."
Jones, Octavio/Tampa Bay Times via AP
The suspect is striking "under the cover of darkness" against people who are alone and "probably preoccupied," Dugan said. A motive is not yet known.
Felton was supposed to meet up with someone Tuesday when someone came from behind and shot him as he was crossing the street, Dugan said after the killing. Police responded to the scene within minutes and formed a perimeter eight blocks wide, but the suspect fled northeast from the area, Dugan said.
Courtesy James Felton
Investigators have received more than 450 tips since Felton's death on Tuesday and 2,300 tips in all, Dugan said. A reward for information leading to an arrest has increased to $91,000 he said.
"Let's hope this motivates somebody with the strength and fortitude to step forward," he said, emphasizing that investigators need names rather than profiles or speculation in order to more easily eliminate possible suspects.
The first three victims were killed within 11 days in October. After Mitchell was killed on Oct. 9, the body of 32-year-old Monica Hoffa was found on Oct. 13, just half a mile from where Mitchell was killed, police said. Anthony Naiboa, 20, a man Dugan described as having "mild autism," was killed on Oct. 19 after taking the wrong bus home from work.

Dugan said he believes the community has rallied together and "given a strong message to whoever is doing this," citing the weekslong gap between Naiboa's and Felton's deaths. Dugan encouraged Seminole Heights residents to continue to keep their porch lights on between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. and to "stick together" when they are outside.

Dugan has been experiencing a "tremendous amount of anxiety" since the killings began, he said.

If you recognize this suspect in the Seminole Heights murders contact @ crimestopperstb Reward up to $91Khttps://youtu.be/qyfTvCg_M90 ||||| TAMPA — One day after another unsolved fatal shooting in Seminole Heights, Tampa Police Chief Brian Dugan said Wednesday it doesn’t matter whether the murders are the work of a serial killer or several different people.
"We have four families devastated," Dugan said at a news conference. "Beyond the families we have their friends devastated and have a police department that’s been tilted and have a community that is very intense and rightfully so. And so it really doesn’t matter at this point how we label it, whether it is one individual or two. We need this to stop."
But as he has said previously, Dugan remains convinced the unsolved homicides are all connected.
"It’s the time, the methodology, the fact that they were all alone,’’ he said. "There is no motive. Nothing is taken or anything like that."
The killings began Oct. 9 with the shooting of Benjamin Mitchell, 22. Two days later, Monica Hoffa was shot dead and her body found two days later. On Oct. 19, Anthony Naiboa, 20 was gunned down. And early Tuesday morning Ronald Felton, 60, was shot dead.
In an effort to draw out more tips, Dugan released a new video showing a person he is now identifying as a suspect in at least two of the Seminole Heights killings.
"We have very limited evidence," Dugan said. "That is why we are doing this appeal — to have someone tell us who is in that video. They could be perfectly innocent, but I don’t think so."
Dugan said the video was taken moments before Felton’s murder early Tuesday. The chief said he believes someone must recognize the person.
"I don’t need speculation. I don’t need profiles," Dugan said. "We need names.
Dugan noted the gait and manner in which the suspect walked, saying it was similar to a person captured in video Oct. 9, the day Mitchell was killed. He was described as a black male, about 6 feet to 6-foot-2 with a thin build and light complexion.
The chief seized on the casual manner in which the person in both videos appears to be walking. The Oct. 9 video showed him looking at and flipping his phone shortly before the shooting.
"It’s clear to me that this person is able to flip a switch and murder someone," Dugan said.
Meanwhile, the reward has gone up to $91,000, with the Federal Bureau of Investigation offering $50,000.
Dugan refused again to offer any specifics about the type of weapon or ammunition used in the crimes. He said police have continued to maintain a strong presence in the neighborhood.
So far, he said, they have knocked on 1,957 doors.
"We are out there for the long haul," he said.
Responding to a question about Naiboa’s family searching for their son’s killer and thinking they have found a suspect, Dugan said he feels for Casimar Naiboa.
"I won’t question a grieving father and how he goes about this,’’ the chief said. "I will question the people around him who might be misleading him. And I can assure him we are following up on every lead we have."
Dugan said the thought of another killing has him worried.
"I don’t sleep at night," he said. "How could I. That’s where we stand. I feel for this neighborhood, the people who live there and the businesses."

Output: | "Watch this video," police in Tampa tweeted Wednesday in their latest appeal for help finding a suspected serial killer. "Pay attention to the walk. Pay attention to the way he flips his phone." Tampa Police Chief Brian Dugan says the video was taken moments before the Tuesday murder of 60-year-old Ronald Felton, who is believed to be the killer's fourth victim, the Tampa Bay Times reports. Dugan says police have limited information and they are making the appeal "to have someone tell us who is in that video. They could be perfectly innocent, but I don’t think so." He says the suspect strongly resembles a person seen on video before the Oct. 9 shooting of Benjamin Mitchell, the first of four people killed in what police believe is one person's killing spree. Dugan told reporters Wednesday that "it doesn't matter at this point" whether the killings are the work of one person or multiple people, as long as they stop. He added, however, that the killings appear to be the work of one person targeting random victims. "It's the time, the methodology, the fact that they were all alone," he said. "There is no motive. Nothing is taken or anything like that." The chief said he believes that a strong response from residents in the Seminole Heights neighborhood helped increase the time between the last two killings, but he has been experiencing a "tremendous amount of anxiety" since the murders began.

Input: The bar was manned by an expensive humanoid robot. It turned toward Sarah's wave and acknowledged her with a nod, moments later setting a fluted glass of sparkling liquid in front of her. I marveled at the robot's smoothness and coordination. Clearly, it was a high-end model. Sarah transferred the glass to my free hand and pulled me away from the bar for more introductions, with Alexis trailing after us. I spent the evening listening, mostly. Listening and stuffing my face with all the bits of fine food provided. No one minded; Sarah's inner circle was content to fill our circle of couches with plenty of chatter. Ray, a plump man who was grey where he wasn't bald. Zheng, short and dark and lean, with a very intense gaze. He made me a little uncomfortable. Kishori, petite, her hair strung out in a series of braids that reached nearly to her waist. I categorized them based on their appearances, hoping I'd be able to pick them out of the crowd again later. Most of their chatter was meaningless to me—stories of day-to-day activities, how so-and-so had been seen in so-and-so's table at lunch and my wasn't that a surprise, and why hadn't the chef concocted this delectable a selection of appetizers for the dance the other night, but of course those rolled meat pastries reminded one of the pastries back on Earth, didn't they, and this was somehow an interesting fact. After the first half-hour, I stopped expending effort to keep names and stories and gossip straight. I wasn't learning anything useful. I could have started asking questions, but I wanted to get my bearings first. Tonight was for observation. I didn't bother trying to seek out a different group of potentially more interesting people, though. They all looked the same: clusters of social butterflies surrounded by the less apt, the hangers-on, the circle with whom the gossip was shared. <sep>Who are two members of Sarah's inner circle?<sep>Zheng

Input: (CNN) -- German art collector Cornelius Gurlitt, whose nearly priceless collection was confiscated because it was suspected to contain pieces looted by the Nazis, died Tuesday and left the masterpieces to a Swiss museum. One day after Gurlitt's death at the age of 81, the Museum of Fine Arts Bern announced that Gurlitt had named it "his unrestricted and unfettered sole heir." The news came as a surprise, the museum said Wednesday, because Gurlitt had never had any connection to it. The museum's directors are delighted at the news, they said in a statement, but also recognize that there are outstanding legal and ethical questions surrounding the collection. Gurlitt had undergone major heart surgery and was hospitalized for many weeks, his representative said in a statement. Gurlitt grabbed the attention of the art world when German prosecutors seized more than 1,200 paintings from his Munich apartment in 2012, including works by Picasso and Matisse. The collection was confiscated as part of an investigation into tax fraud, but then it was thought that some of the paintings may have been works that were looted by the Nazis. Just last month, part of the collection was returned to Gurlitt as part of a deal with Germany's cultural authorities and the Bavarian Justice Ministry. Under the agreement, works owned by Gurlitt that were not under suspicion were returned to him. Those suspected of being stolen were to be held securely while a task force investigates their provenance -- and will be returned to their original Jewish owners or their descendants if a claim is proven. Gurlitt's representative said that with the art collector's death, the investigation into the collection ceases. The court that was handling the investigation proceedings will now function as an estate court in the case. <sep>Why were pieces of the Gurlitt art collection confiscated by authorities?<sep>As part of an investigation into tax fraud

Instructions: In this task, you are given a text of many news articles seperated by special token "|||||". Your task is to summarize them.
Input: Facebook has taken down 652 pages, accounts and groups it identified as part of coordinated disinformation campaigns that originated in Iran and targeted countries around the world. It also found a number of new pages connected to Russia.
The Iran-linked pages and groups spread misinformation in the United States, United Kingdom, Latin America and the Middle East. Some of them posed as a group called "Liberty Front Press."
Facebook (FB) said the coordinated campaigns originating in Iran included 254 Facebook pages and 116 Instagram accounts that amassed more than 1 million followers across the two services. Those behind the pages spent more than $12,000 on advertisements between 2012 and 2017, the company said.
Facebook, Twitter (TWTR) and other social media companies have been scrambling to protect their platforms ahead of the US midterm elections in November and prevent a repeat of the widespread disinformation seen during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the company's attempts to identify fake pages, groups and accounts are making the social network safer.
"While it's still early, we're starting to see it pay off and we're identifying more of this before the election," he said on a call with reporters.
In a related development, Twitter announced on Tuesday that it has identified and removed 284 accounts, many of which it linked to Iran, for "coordinated manipulation." The company said it is working with law enforcement and other tech firms.
The announcements underscore just how aggressively foreign actors are still seeking to covertly influence political conversations in countries around the world. Facebook's revelation came after Microsoft (MSFT) took control of websites it said Russian military intelligence could have tried to use to hack American politicians.
Facebook made the announcement Tuesday evening. The company said it had taken action after discovering "coordinated inauthentic behavior" by actors seeking to "mislead others about who they were and what they were doing."
One part of the Liberty Front Press network claimed to be an independent Iranian media organization but was in fact linked to Press TV, a news network affiliated with Iranian state media, Facebook said.
Some of the pages were identified by Facebook after a tip from cybersecurity firm FireEye.
"This influence operation linked to Iran aims to promote political narratives in line with Iranian interests, including anti-Saudi, anti-Israeli, and pro-Palestinian themes," FireEye analyst Lee Foster said. "The activity we have uncovered is significant and demonstrates that actors beyond Russia continue to engage in online, social media-driven influence operations as a means of shaping political discourse."
FireEye noted that the Iran-linked activity it uncovered "does not appear to have been designed as a dedicated attempt to influence the 2018 US midterm elections."
"This does not preclude such attempts being made, however, and the recent reorientation of some social media accounts to adopting left-leaning identities may indicate an opportunistic shift toward a more elaborate effort to influence US domestic political discourse," it added.
Some of the content Facebook removed could be traced to groups previously connected to the GRU, Russia's primary military intelligence agency. Special counsel Robert Mueller indicted 12 members of the GRU last month, accusing them of hacking the US Democratic Party.
Facebook said that the latest Russian accounts, groups and pages it took down were not related to the ones originating in Iran, and that they did not appear to have targeted the United States. "This more recent activity focused on politics in Syria and Ukraine," it said.
Facebook is working with US law enforcement in an ongoing investigation. It said it has been following suspect pages for months.
Using clues like website registrations and IP addresses, Facebook connected Liberty Front Press pages to Iranian state media. The first Liberty Front Press accounts Facebook found were created in 2013.
Another set of suspicious accounts and pages that originated in Iran could be traced to 2011.
The announcement comes amid Facebook's attempts to prevent a repeat of 2016, when the platform was peppered with accounts connected to a Kremlin-linked troll group posing as Americans. It removed more than 30 pages last month that it said were part of a coordinated campaign to post "misleading" information. Facebook told lawmakers it suspected a Russian group was behind the accounts, which were involved in organizing political events in the United States.
Tuesday's revelations show the problem goes beyond Russia.
"I've been saying for months that there's no way the problem of social media manipulation is limited to a single troll farm in St. Petersburg, and that fact is now beyond a doubt," said Senator Mark Warner, top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee. "We also learned today that the Iranians are now following the Kremlin's playbook from 2016." ||||| The new influence campaigns on Facebook follow a report from Microsoft earlier on Tuesday, in which it said it found and seized websites that were recently created by hackers linked to a Russian military intelligence unit. The fake websites were part of an effort to attack conservative think tanks in the United States.
On Capitol Hill, lawmakers have been grappling with mounting evidence from social media and American intelligence that sanctions and other deterrence measures have failed to curb Russia’s activity. They signaled on Tuesday that they intended to move forward with developing punishing new sanctions in the coming weeks. It was unclear if they could enact any such legislation before November, but their deliberations in a series of hearings were meant to send a signal to Moscow to desist.
Facebook said on Tuesday that it had identified some of the new influence operations last month after a tip from FireEye about a network of Facebook pages called “Liberty Front Press.”
After Facebook investigated those pages, it said it linked them back to Iranian state media using their website registration information and internet protocol addresses. Some of the pages were created in 2013, the company said, and they posted political content focused on the Middle East, Latin America, Britain and the United States.
Other fake pages also had a far more international bent than the earlier batches uncovered by the social media company. The pages believed to have originated in Iran were written in several languages, including English, Arabic and Farsi. They carried a number of pro-Iranian themes, as well as language attacking Israel and promoting Palestinians. Some included anti-Trump language and were tied to relations between the United States and Iran, including references to the Iranian nuclear weapons deal.
Newer accounts, created in 2016 and later, had additional goals, including spreading malware and stealing passwords, Facebook said. The accounts that originated in Russia focused on activity in Ukraine and Syria. They did not appear to target the United States. In Syria, the accounts promoted a pro-Russian agenda and that of Syria’s president, Bashar al-Assad.
“For example, they are associated with Inside Syria Media Center, which the Atlantic Council and other organizations have identified for covertly spreading pro-Russian and pro-Assad content,” Facebook said in a blog post. ||||| Working with our industry peers today, we have suspended 284 accounts from Twitter for engaging in coordinated manipulation. Based on our existing analysis, it appears many of these accounts originated from Iran. |||||
Output: | Social media platforms have been battening down the hatches against disinformation campaigns, and Facebook just made a new dent. The site announced Tuesday it had yanked 652 pages or groups off Facebook and Instagram showing "coordinated inauthentic behavior" by those seeking to "mislead others about who they were and what they were doing," CNN reports. Per the New York Times, Facebook said the activity (some stretching back to 2011) originated out of Iran and Russia, and that the disinformation this time went after marks in the UK, Latin America, and the Middle East, in addition to US targets. Twitter also announced Tuesday it has shut down nearly 300 of its own bad actors tied to "coordinated manipulation" that originated in Iran. One group that emerged was Liberty Front Press, which was tied to Iranian state media, per Facebook. "We … learned today that the Iranians are now following the Kremlin's playbook from 2016," Sen. Mark Warner tells CNN. YouTube says it has also taken down a Liberty Front Press channel for breaching community guidelines, though it didn't elaborate. This all went down in the same week Microsoft said it found attempts by Russian hackers to infiltrate US political groups, all bent on "disrupting democracy," per Microsoft President Brad Smith. Cybersecurity firm FireEye, which assisted Facebook in identifying the disinformation-spewing pages, says the propaganda geared toward the US wasn't meant specifically to target the midterms. "Our adversaries are sophisticated and well-funded," Mark Zuckerberg told reporters in a call Tuesday, but he insists the company's "proactive" efforts will "make Facebook safer over time," per the Washington Post. |

As we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. Let's look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, "a homeless dog", "a mad dog", "a running dog" and "a dog catching a mouse", have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, "you are a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person's serious illness, they say "sick as a dog". The word "dog-tired" means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, "cat" is often used to describe a woman who is cruel. There are many other examples of how "cat" is used differently as well. The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries. The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A) Words show differences in culture. B) Chinese people prefer dogs to cats. C) Western people think cats to be good friends. D) Rose is the national flower of all western countries.

*Question*
There is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling. If spelling becomes the only point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to " _ ". He will write only words within his spelling range . That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability. I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:"This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the mistakes, but if his priority had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improvement. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that _ . A) students will be able to express their ideas more freely B) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes C) students will have more trust in writing D) students will learn to spell words correctly
**Answer**

We often don' t give importance to minor things thinking they won' t matter. But at times, some things look very minor but their result can be really powerful. Here are some of the efforts which can change the relationship between parents and children. Pat your child when he loses:May it be failure in the class, or on the field, speak words of encouragement to your child. The trust and confidence in your relationship will go to another level. After all, words of encouragement during failure are more valuable than words of praise after success.

My first full-time job after high school was selling vacation packages via the telephone for a well-known company. One day, I was put through to a man who sounded a bit out of breath. I started with my normal pitch , expecting to hear the normal reply --"I don't want any." Instead, he spoke in a faint, weak voice and told me how he wished to take a vacation I was offering, but he couldn't because he was dying of illness. He explained how he was lacking in oxygen then, and it took almost all his energy to answer the call. He asked if I smoked, which I did, and begged me to stop. He told me smoking was what was killing him. He told me to spend every day with my loved ones, and tell them how much I love them. At this point, I couldn't control myself. We ended the call, but I held on my phone to prevent another call coming in so I could _ I wrote down his name and address, and sent him a card appreciating his advice and praying for him and his family.

Difficult times often bring out the best in people. And this was the case for basketball star Yao Ming, who hosted a television show in Shanghai that raised US $ 300, 000 to help researchers find a cure for SARS. Fund-raising, or charity, is an act of goodwill towards others. Charities in the West have more ways. Look at a typical day for Ruth, a wealthy woman in the UK, for example. Ruth wakes up in the morning and collects her post. There's a letter addressed to her with a picture of a half-dead, beaten horse. It's from a charity asking Ruth to donate money to save the animals. The door bell rings and there, on Ruth's doorstep, is an old woman asking for money to help the aged. She turns on the television, hears sad music and sees a picture of a wide-eyed child dying of hunger in Africa with an appeal for money to help the child. Ruth then goes shopping for a dress to wear to that evening's large party for the rich and famous. The tickets for charity shows often cost her a large sum of money, but she doesn't mind because most of the money is going to a charity that fights AIDS. She feels good about going because she's helping the sick. Edna, a little old lady, looks after an old secondhand shop. Any profit it has made goes to a cancer charity. Now that she has retired, she has plenty of spare time to offer her services for free. www.ks5u.com For people like Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna, charity is a virtue that holds the same importance in life as faith and hope. "As you look back on your life, the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others," said Scottish author Henry Drummond. What's the writer's attitude towards charity? A) It's something only people like Ruth can afford to do. B) The writer only informs us of the ways to perform charity. C) Charity is a virtue and he admires those who practice it. D) The writer doesn't make it clear in the passage.

Then Mrs. Harris said to her husband, "We've been to a lot of other people's houses, and now we must invite them to our house, mustn't we?" "Yes, certainly," answered her husband, "A big party will be the easiest thing, won't it? Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month." So Mrs. Harris said, "Yes, I'll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December." "How many will that be?" Mr. Harris asked. "Don't invite too many."

In fact they were still there at mid-night when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived. He said, "You must stop making a noise, because someone has complained." Mr. Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home. They were sorry to have to go. When Mr. and Mrs. Harris were alone again, she said to him.

B) About fourteen hours. C) About two hours. D) Till midnight

The Dragon V2, short for version two, is the first attempt by a private company to restore Americans' ability to send people to the orbiting space station in the wake of the space shuttle program's retirement in 2011.
"It's all around, I think, really a big leap forward in technology. It really takes things to the next level," said SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.
SpaceX is competing with other companies—including Boeing, Sierra Nevada and Blue Origin—to be the first commercial outfit to take astronauts to space, possibly as early as 2017.
Until then, the world's astronauts must rely on Russian Soyuz spacecraft at a cost of $70 million per seat.
The Dragon V2 was shown for the first time at a jam-packed evening press conference in Hawthorne, California.
The shiny Dragon V2 sat on a white stage floor, as a scorched Dragon cargo capsule was suspended above, bearing the blackened markings of a capsule that had returned to Earth from orbit.
SpaceX's Dragon capsule in 2012 became the first private spacecraft to carry supplies to the ISS and back.
Since then, Orbital Sciences has followed with its Cygnus, a capsule shaped like a beer keg that can carry supplies to the space station but burns upon re-entry to Earth's atmosphere.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk introduces SpaceX's Dragon V2 spacecraft, the company's next generation version of the Dragon ship, designed to carry astronauts into space, at a press conference in Hawthorne, California, on May 29, 2014
Musk said a key feature of the Dragon V2 is that it will be able to "land anywhere on Earth with the accuracy of a helicopter."
The crew spacecraft will be able to use rocket propulsion and deploy legs to land, instead of using parachutes to make an ocean splash-landing the way the cargo capsule does.
It will however still have parachutes that it can use for a landing in case any engine problems are detected before touchdown on Earth.
The V2 also carries an improved heat shield and will be able to autonomously dock with the space station, instead of needing the space station's robotic arm to catch it and pull it in.
"That is a significant upgrade as well," Musk said.

Musk touted the reusability of the Dragon V2, allowing it to cut back on expensive space journeys.
"You can just reload propellant and then fly again. This is extremely important for revolutionizing access to space," Musk said.
"Because as long as we continue to throw away rockets and spacecraft, we will never have true access to space. It will always be incredibly expensive," he added.
"If aircraft were thrown away with each flight, nobody would be able to fly."
The Internet entrepreneur and billionaire co-founder of PayPal did not say when the Dragon V2's first test flight would take place.

Ever since the US space shuttle program ended in 2011, the world's astronauts have depended on Russia's Soyuz spacecraft to reach the ISS, an orbiting outpost built and maintained by more than a dozen countries.
SpaceX, Boeing, Sierra Nevada and Blue Origin have all received millions of dollars in NASA funds to help them develop next-generation spacecraft that will someday carry astronauts to space.
SpaceX has said its crew capsule may be able to reach the ISS with astronauts aboard by 2017.
Meanwhile, NASA says it is focusing on building a new deep space capsule that could take humans to Mars by the 2030s.

Output: | Astronauts could soon be zooming into space in a gumdrop—er, a gumdrop-shaped capsule. SpaceX yesterday unveiled its Dragon V2, which is designed to carry seven astronauts to the International Space Station and will ultimately be able to "land anywhere on Earth with the accuracy of a helicopter," CEO Elon Musk said. Since 2011, NASA has handed the Russians $70 million per astronaut per ride to the ISS on Russia's Soyuz spacecraft; Musk says the Dragon V2 would cost more like $20 million per seat. SpaceX is joined by Boeing, Sierra Nevada Corp., and Blue Origin in its development of replacements for NASA's retired space shuttle fleet, and the agency intends to pick the projects that it wants to see realized in the next few months, with an eye on a 2017 launch. As NBC News points out, SpaceX's Dragon cargo capsules are well-acquainted with the ISS—they've been making trips there since 2012. The second-generation version has the accommodations needed to carry people: seats for one, along with life support systems and a thruster system that could kick in if things go awry during the ascent. This newest capsule will also be able to autonomously dock at the ISS, reports Phys.org. What SpaceX still plans to add: legs, which would enable the Dragon to land on, well, land, rather than in the sea. "That is how a 21st-century spaceship should land," Musk said.

The Tower of London, officially Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress of the Tower of London, is a historic castle located on the north bank of the River Thames in central London. It lies within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, separated from the eastern edge of the square mile of the City of London by the open space known as Tower Hill. It was founded towards the end of 1066 as part of the Norman Conquest of England. The White Tower, which gives the entire castle its name, was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and was a resented symbol of oppression, inflicted upon London by the new ruling elite. The castle was used as a prison from 1100 (Ranulf Flambard) until 1952 (Kray twins), although that was not its primary purpose. A grand palace early in its history, it served as a royal residence. As a whole, the Tower is a complex of several buildings set within two concentric rings of defensive walls and a moat. There were several phases of expansion, mainly under Kings Richard the Lionheart, Henry III, and Edward I in the 12th and 13th centuries. The general layout established by the late 13th century remains despite later activity on the site.
Output: | when and why was the tower of london built |

Police found the kidnappers' vehicle abandoned in a nearby town Thursday morning, said Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami, who called it "a very important find."
He said anti-kidnapping units led by "the best investigators we have" were dispatched to the area in central Carabobo state and he vowed to rescue Ramos and capture his abductors.
"We're taking on this investigation with everything we've got," El Aissami said.
The 24-year-old player, who had just finished his rookie season, was just outside the front door at his home in the town of Santa Ines on Wednesday night when an SUV approached, armed men got out "and they took him away," said Ramos' agent, Gustavo Marcano.
"The abductors haven't made contact with the family or with anyone," said Domingo Alvarez, vice president of the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League, in a telephone interview. "We're worried."
Major League Baseball and the Nationals issued a joint statement that the league's Department of Investigations was working with authorities.
"Our foremost concern is with Wilson Ramos and his family and our thoughts are with them at this time," the statement said, adding there would be no further comment.
Ramos is a key young player for the Nationals. As a rookie in 2011, he hit .267 with 15 home runs and 52 RBIs in 113 games. He also threw out 19 of 67 runners attempting to steal a base, a 28 percent success rate that ranked third among qualifying catchers in the National League.
Washington acquired Ramos from the Minnesota Twins in a trade for All-Star relief pitcher Matt Capps in July 2010.
He is one of dozens of Venezuelans in the major leagues, and some of their families already have been targeted in a rising wave of kidnappings affecting the wealthy.
Venezuelan police said that 618 kidnappings were reported in 2009, and the numbers have grown rapidly in recent years. In 1998, when President Hugo Chavez was elected, just 52 kidnappings were reported. Security experts say the real number of kidnappings today is much higher because many cases aren't reported to authorities.
The wealthy have taken steps to protect themselves; sales of armored cars have soared in the past several years. Bodyguards typically shadow major leaguers when they return to their homeland to play in the winter league.
"Every major league player has his own security, but we don't know if he had his security there at that time," Alvarez said. He said it's the first time a major league player has been abducted in the country, though other players' relatives have been held for ransom in the past.
Former Boston Red Sox slugger Tony Armas, who lives in Venezuela, said young players have been taking additional security measures due to the risk of kidnappings.
"But many of them are careless sometimes. No one seriously thinks that this can happen to us, and much less in a country like ours where people love baseball," Armas said in a telephone interview.
"Most of us came from humble families. We still have relatives who live in poor areas, we frequent those places and unfortunately the criminals are getting more soulless all the time," he said.
In November 2009, the 56-year-old mother of Victor Zambrano, who retired after a seven-year Major League career, was rescued in a commando-style operation three days after she was kidnapped. The former pitcher's cousin, Richard Mendez Zambrano, had been kidnapped a few days earlier, and was later killed.
In June 2009, Colorado Rockies catcher Yorvit Torrealba's 11-year-old son and brother-in-law were kidnapped and released a day later.
The mother of former player Ugueth Urbina, who was a two-time All-Star pitcher, spent more than five months in captivity until she was rescued in early 2005.
Venezuela has one of Latin America's highest murder rates, and violent crime has worsened in recent years. As ransom kidnapping has soared, the government passed a revised law in 2009 that stiffened prison sentences for kidnapping and also allows authorities to freeze the banks accounts of victims' families to prevent them from paying ransom.
Ramos had been training and planned to start playing with his Venezuelan team next week. Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Melvin Mora, also a Venezuelan, proposed that the Venezuelan league ought to call off its games "until he appears."
But league president Jose Grasso said that won't happen. "Turning out the stadium lights isn't a solution," Grasso said, calling Ramos' abduction "an isolated event."

AP Sports Writers Howard Fendrich in Washington and Ron Blum in New York contributed to this report.
(This version CORRECTS that Tigers are already playing, next week's game not season opener.) ||||| Police Thursday discovered the four-wheel-drive vehicle armed men used to kidnap Washington Nationals catcher Wilson Ramos, an important clue that the country’s Justice Minister said could help authorities track down the young ballplayer a day after he was abducted from his family’s home.
The Ramos family had yet to hear from the kidnappers, a close family friend said. But a Venezuelan police Twitter feed reported without elaboration that Ramos is alive. “State law enforcement officials confirm ballplayer Ramos alive,” it said.
The Nationals and Major League Baseball said the league’s Department of Investigations was working in concert with Venezuelan authorities.
“Our foremost concern is with Wilson Ramos and his family and our thoughts are with them at this time,” MLB and the Nationals said in a joint statement. The statement said the ballclub and league had “been instructed to make no further comment.”
The vehicle was found in the town of Bejuma, about 25 miles west of this industrial city in central Venezuela, Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami said.

“Right now, we are in an investigative phase, collecting evidence, to try to find him,” El Aissami said.
El Aissami made his comments just hours after the gunmen arrived at Ramos’s family’s home in the Santa Ines district of Valencia, forced him into their vehicle and sped away. The abduction of the 24-year-old catcher, a promising player who had recently returned to his homeland to play in the winter league, has garnered broad media attention in a country obsessed with its baseball stars and also painfully aware of the growing scourge of kidnappings and other violent crimes. Ramos’s salary is the league minimum, $415,000.
The justice minister said that evidence-collection teams had been at the scene of the abduction through the evening and that “the best kidnapping investigators” were searching for a lead that would take them to Ramos.
“We have the duty to find who is responsible and to rescue this countryman of ours, safe and sound,” El Aissami said.
Outside the Ramos family home, Gustavo Marcano, identified as the ballplayers’ agent, told reporters Thursday morning that the family has had no information and no contact with the abductors. “We have been waiting for information since 7 p.m.,” he said.
He said the kidnapping occurred about 7 p.m. when three suspects – on Wednesday others close to Ramos said it was four – arrived at the house. “Wilson was with his brother and father, and I understand that the car passed several times, checking things out,” he said. “And when they saw him outside, they took him away.”
Late Thursday morning, family friend Marfa Mata said on her Twitter account the family had yet to hear from the kidnappers and urged the public to stay calm.
“We don’t have any information,” wrote Mata, who helped Ramos adapt to the United States when he arrived here to play in the minor leagues for the Minnesota Twins. “The kidnapers haven’t called yet. Please, we must keep calm.”
The U.S. State Department is monitoring the case but has not been contacted by Venezuelan authorities or Major League Baseball, a State Department spokesman said. Ramos is not a U.S. citizen. “We are certainly aware of the case . . . monitoring it closely,” spokesman Mark Toner said.
Ramos’s kidnapping was a blow to the Venezuelan baseball league, which is in the midst of its winter season, when a number of Venezuelan players who are on Major League teams return to play in their homeland. The kidnapping of Ramos, the first of a Major League player here, led some Venezuelans to call for the suspension of at least Thursday’s games.
“Turning off the lights is not the solution,” Jose Grasso Vecchio, the president of the league. “The professional baseball league is not planning it.”
Grasso Vecchio said that players and administrators were “anguished and saddened” by what had happened. “We are praying for a quick resolution to this case,” he said, “and that he return safe and sound to his home.”
About a dozen players who played in the Nationals’ organization in 2011, mostly minor leaguers, remained in Venezuela, where they are playing for their winter ball teams.
Minor league pitcher Ryan Tatusko, one of the Nationals’ players in Venezuela, said the Nationals called him first thing Thursday morning to ensure he was safe. The Nationals are going to inform him “ASAP” if he’s staying or leaving the country, Tatusko said.
Kidnappings have become a growing problem in Venezuela. Crime in general is a major concern for Venezuelans, who complain that under President Hugo Chavez’s government homicides and drug trafficking have flourished. Cocaine trafficking from Colombia through Venezuela is rife, Obama administration officials say, and big cities like Caracas have become among the most violent in Latin America.

In what officials say is a major breakthrough, they have found the vehicle kidnappers used to abduct Ramos, the Washington Post reports. The country’s justice minister said “the best investigators we have” are working on the case, the AP adds. “Our foremost concern is with Wilson Ramos and his family and our thoughts are with them at this time,” said a statement from Major League Baseball and the Nats. Ramos, 24, had recently returned to his native country to play in its winter baseball league. (He makes the MLB minimum of $415,000 a year with Washington.) Three suspects arrived at Ramos’ house last night at 7pm, his agent says. “Wilson was with his brother and father, and I understand that the car passed several times, checking things out. When they saw him outside, they took him away.” |

Tian Tian, the UK's only female giant panda, has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as August. However Edinburgh Zoo, where the pandas live, have warned people 'not to get too excited' as the process is 'extremely complex'. Moreover, on the two previous occasions keepers inseminated Tian Tian - whose name means 'Sweetie' - she has failed to produce a panda cub. She was artificially inseminated again in March this year, but keepers at the zoo say implantation - when a fertilised egg attaches to the uterus - has not yet occurred.Tian Tian has conceived and could give birth to a cub as early as AugustShe has been inseminated twice before but so far failed to produce a cubTian Tian and Yang Guang arrived in 2011 from China to great fanfareOn loan at £600k a year, became first giant pandas to live in UK for 17 years

Q: Washington (CNN) When Jeff Sessions was sworn in as the 84th attorney general in February, President Donald Trump foreshadowed that the Justice Department was at a turning point. "A new era of justice begins. And it begins right now," Trump said. "This is a new era. This is the Trump era," Sessions told border patrol agents on Tuesday, echoing a similar recognition that change is afoot. In just over two months, Sessions has proved to be a central figure in effectuating Trump's vision for America in tangible ways on immigration, crime, police reform and civil rights. And while the White House searches for new messaging to frame what Trump has accomplished in the first 100 days in office, Sessions has single-handedly managed to make several significant domestic policy changes -- from pressing pause on implementing police reforms to withdrawing Obama-era protections for transgender students in public schools."We have a crime problem," Sessions said at his swearing-in ceremony"This is a new era. This is the Trump era," Sessions said to border agents Tuesday
Question:Yet some leaders in the law enforcement community, welcome _' change in tone on police reforms.
A: | Jeff Sessions |

Given the task definition, example input & output, solve the new input case.
In this task, you are given Wikipedia articles on a range of topics, we ask you to write a question based on the content of the articles that can be answered in a binary manner i.e. True or False.
Example: Property tax -- Property tax or 'house tax' is a local tax on buildings, along with appurtenant land. It is and imposed on the Possessor (not the custodian of property as per 1978, 44th amendment of constitution). It resembles the US-type wealth tax and differs from the excise-type UK rate. The tax power is vested in the states and is delegated to local bodies, specifying the valuation method, rate band, and collection procedures. The tax base is the annual rental value (ARV) or area-based rating. Owner-occupied and other properties not producing rent are assessed on cost and then converted into ARV by applying a percentage of cost, usually four percent. Vacant land is generally exempt. Central government properties are exempt. Instead a 'service charge' is permissible under executive order. Properties of foreign missions also enjoy tax exemption without requiring reciprocity. The tax is usually accompanied by service taxes, e.g., water tax, drainage tax, conservancy (sanitation) tax, lighting tax, all using the same tax base. The rate structure is flat on rural (panchayat) properties, but in the urban (municipal) areas it is mildly progressive with about 80% of assessments falling in the first two brackets.
Output: is house tax and property tax are same
The question generated asks whether the house tax and property tax are the same and can be answered by reading the passage. Additionally, it has a binary answer and hence the generated question is correct.

Question: After years of hearing drivers complain about scratches on their cars, Japan's Nissan Motor Company has officially announced the next big thing---a paint that not only resists scratches and scrapes, but actually repairs itself within a few days. The new material, developed by Nippon Paint Company, contains an elastic rubbery-like resin that is able to heal minor marks caused by car wash equipment, parking lot encounters, road debris or even on-purpose destruction. The automaker admits its results vary depending on the temperature and the depth of the damage, but adds this is the only paint like it in the world, and tests prove it works. Minor scratches, the most common type, are said to slowly fade over about a week. And once they're gone, there is no trace that they were ever there. The special paint is said to last for at least three years after it is first applied, but there is no word yet on whether more can be added after that period. Nissan claims car washes are the worst offenders for this type of damage, accounting for at least 80 percent of all incidents. But the complete auto-healing won't come without scratching your wallet. The vehicle maker notes the special paint adds about $ 100 U.S. to the price of a car. It plans to use its new chemical mixture only on its X - Trail SUVs in Japan for now, as it looks for a more widespread presentation. And while plans to offer the feature overseas haven't been made yet, if it's a hit there, you can be almost sure market forces will drive it to these shores, as well. The paint used on cars can _ . A) last 3 years before it is re-applied again B) fade only in a few days C) help to protect cars from minor paint damage D) reduce car scrape incidents to 20 percent

Question: Advertisement is the difficult business of bringing information to great numbers of people.The purpose of an advertisement is to make people respond to make them react to an idea,such as helping prevent forest fires,or to make them want to buy a certain product or service.At the beginning of the 20th century,advertisement was described as"salesmanship in print".If this definition were expanded to include radio and television,it would still stand today.The most effective way to sell something is through person-to-person contact.But the cost of person-to-person selling is high because it takes a great deal of time,and it increases the cost of the product or service.Advertising distributes the selling message to many people at one time.The first printed advertisement in the English language appeared in 1278,more than a century before Shakespeare's first play was produced.This early advertisement was the work of William Caxton,England's first printer,who used it to advertise religious books from his own workshop Caxton posted small printed notices along London's main streets.Besides advertising his product,he identified his shop with a red-striped shield so that customers could find it easily. This same sort of simple informational advertising is still used.Examples are the roadside signs that tell travelers that they can buy fresh corn just down the road or that there is a restaurant in the next town. The Industrial Revolution,in the 18th and 19th centuries,brought a new kind of advertising.Large factories took the place of small workshops and goods were produced in large quantities. Manufacturers used the newly built railroads to distribute their products over wide areas.They had to find many thousands of customers in order to stay in business.They couldn't simply tell people where shoes or cloth or tea could be bought---they had to learn how to make people want to buy a specific product. Thus modern advertising was born. Advertising created new markets and helped to raise standards of living as people came to... Why is advertisement accepted by people? A) Because it can help to prevent forest fires. B) Because it cand make people want to buy a certain product or service. C) Because it can bring information to great numbers of people. D) Because it can help people live longer.
