Q: The typical flu incubation period is between 24 hours and four days, with the average being two days. This means that if you are exposed to the influenza virus and become infected, you will start to experience flu symptoms anywhere between 24 hours and four days after the exposure. Another factor that contributes to how the flu spreads is when exactly you may be contagious. You may also wonder how long it takes to get sick after you have been exposed and how long you are contagious when you have it. Flu Incubation Period. The typical flu incubation period—the time between exposure and the start of symptoms—is between 24 hours and four days, with the average being two days. This means that if you are exposed to the influenza virus and become infected, you will start to experience flu symptoms anywhere between 24 hours and four days after the exposure. You may also wonder how long it takes to get sick after you have been exposed and how long you are contagious when you have it. Flu Incubation Period The typical flu incubation period—the time between exposure and the start of symptoms—is between 24 hours and four days, with the average being two days. This means that if you are exposed to the influenza virus and become infected, you will start to experience flu symptoms anywhere between 24 hours and four days after the exposure. Viral Shedding. Influenza spreads mainly by respiratory droplets that contain copies of the virus that have replicated in your body. Viral shedding, which correlates with infectivity, occurs starting approximately 1 day before symptoms appear and can continue for up to 10 days after symptoms develop. The most active period of contagion falls between 1 and 4 days after the start of symptoms, according to a May 2010 article published in the Journal of Infectious Disease. The study also found that in a small number of cases, infection transmission occurred before symptoms appeared. If you are exposed to someone with the flu, avoid close contact with the person, and wash your hands frequently. 1 Vitamin C: Although Vitamin C is widely used and has many benefits, there is no scientific proof that it will help you avoid an illness such as the flu or a cold. Tamiflu Actions. Tamiflu acts by reducing the number of cells in your body that are affected by the influenza virus. It does this by binding to a coating, called neuraminidase, that's found on the surface of the virus. Neuraminidase allows the virus to penetrate healthy cells, where it can then produce more copies of the virus. After symptoms start, adults can spread the virus for five to 10 days. However, the amount of virus spread decreases significantly after three to five days. Adults are most contagious with the flu from 24 hours before symptoms start to three to five days afterward. Flu symptoms generally don't come on gradually. 1 More often, people describe the onset of flu as if they were hit by a truck.. You feel fine, and then suddenly, an hour later, you feel like you can hardly move. 2 We know that it is highly contagious and can be spread before you even have symptoms. Preventing the Flu After Exposure. 1 Vitamin C: Although Vitamin C is widely used and has many benefits, there is no scientific proof that it will help you avoid an illness such as the flu or a cold. 2 Humidifiers: Evidence suggests that viruses such as the cold and flu spread more easily in cold, dry air. Query: how long incubation period influenza b

In this task, you are given a question and a context passage. You have to answer the question based on the given passage.
Example: what is the first event mentioned?, Context: The Russian Revolution is the series of revolutions in Russia in 1917, which destroyed the Tsarist autocracy and led to the creation of the Soviet Union. Following the abdication of Nicholas II of Russia, the Russian Provisional Government was established. In October 1917, a red faction revolution occurred in which the Red Guard, armed groups of workers and deserting soldiers directed by the Bolshevik Party, seized control of Saint Petersburg (then known as Petrograd) and began an immediate armed takeover of cities and villages throughout the former Russian Empire.
Example solution: Russian Revolution
Example explanation: This is a good example, and the Russian Revolution is the first event mentioned.
Problem: If I lived in the 8th century, what change would I have seen?, Context: The various Germanic states in the west all had coinages that imitated existing Roman and Byzantine forms. Gold continued to be minted until the end of the 7th century, when it was replaced by silver coins. The basic Frankish silver coin was the denarius or denier, while the Anglo-Saxon version was called a penny. From these areas, the denier or penny spread throughout Europe during the centuries from 700 to 1000. Copper or bronze coins were not struck, nor were gold except in Southern Europe. No silver coins denominated in multiple units were minted.
| Solution: Gold continued to be minted until the end of the 7th century, when it was replaced by silver coins |
Question: Jenny turned her nose up at me as I sat down, sniffing loudly and filling her nostrils with the strong alcohol stink I was emitting. "So have you been drinking already this morning, or are you just still drunk from last night?" "A little of both," I said. She peered at me disapprovingly over her iced latte. We were sitting at a table in front of a strip mall coffee shop. Jenny was wearing huge gold-rimmed sunglasses and had a decent collection of shopping bags gathered at her feet. "Busy afternoon?" I asked. "Just picking up a few things for Mexico. We leave tomorrow morning." My attention was drawn away by a group of men in black jumpsuits standing around in the parking lot next to a white van with the red Asterion logo painted on its side. It was hard to tell, but I thought one of them was the same guy I'd seen on the Light Rail a couple days before, the one who'd been reading the paper. Jenny seemed to notice my distraction and followed my gaze. "Is something wrong?" "No, it's just those Asterion guys seem to be everywhere now. I guess business must be booming." "Yeah, we hired them last month to archive our old financial records," Jenny replied. "They came in and hauled everything away, I was so happy to get all that empty space back. Of course it doesn't really matter now, since I'm going to have to find a new job when I get back from the honeymoon. "Anyways, I'm rambling," she admitted good-naturedly. "So what did you want to talk to me about?" "I wanted to ask you about someone I met last night." She bared her teeth ecstatically in a knowing grin. "Really? A woman, I presume." "Settle down, it's not like that. She's just a girl who said she can help introduce me to Dylan Maxwell." "Was it Natalie?" she asked. "I don't know. She was wearing a motley dress and a black veil." "Yep, that's Natalie," Jenny confirmed. How long did Jenny shop? Pick the correct answer from the following options: - ten minutes - 3 hours - not enough information - forty-five seconds

Problem: Within hours of becoming a national hero, a viral video star and the top topic on Twitter, Charles Ramsey talked about having trouble getting sleep.
It wasn't because of all the excitement that followed his knocking down a Cleveland neighbor's door, freeing three women and a girl who police say were held hostage for years.
Instead, Ramsey told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Tuesday, it was about knowing he had lived for a year near the captive women on the city's West Side.
"Up until yesterday the only thing that kept me from losing sleep was the lack of money," the restaurant dishwasher said on "Anderson Cooper 360."
"I could have done this last year, not this hero stuff," said Ramsey. "Just do the right thing."
Ramsey recounted Monday night's drama, when he heard a girl scream "like a car had hit a kid."
He ran from his living room, clutching a half-eaten McDonald's Big Mac, to the house and helped free a woman identified as Amanda Berry.
"Amanda said, 'I've been trapped in here. He won't let me out. It's me and my baby."
Who are the three women freed in Cleveland?
Ramsey and a man named Angel Cordero broke down the door, CNN affiliate WEWS reported in an earlier interview heard around the world.
Ramsey told CNN he had never seen Berry before Monday, and at first, he could not place the name.
"Berry didn't register with me until I was on the phone, like wait a minute, I thought this girl was dead."

Problem: Abby and Emma are outside one day to do something special for someone. They are picking flowers for their mother's birthday.
Right before they are finished picking their flowers to surprise their mother, the girls see that the clouds in the sky have turned grey and that the sun is no longer shining. It looks like it's going to rain soon.
Abby looks down at her small hand of purple flowers and frowns.
"What's wrong, Abby?" Emma asks, turning to look at her sister studying her flowers.

"If it rains, we can't make mommy a mud pie," Abby adds with sadness.
Emma looks down at her own white flowers, counting them, and thinks. After making sure she had four flowers, she looks at Abby with an idea.
"What if we get the mud and take it in the house? That way if it rains, we can still make a cake," Emma says.
"Good idea!" Abby smiles, happy again.

Problem: What do Tom Sawyer and Jumping Frogs have in common? Stories about both of them were created by one man: Mark Twain. Twain was four years old when his family moved to Hannibal, Missouri, located on the west bank of the Mississippi. Twain grew up there and was fascinated with (......) life along the river----the steamboats, the giant lumber rafts, and the people who worked on them.
The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County is one of Twain's best loved short stories, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one of his most famous novels. Both these works are celebrated by events held during National Tom Sawyer Days, which originated in the late 1950s and became national in the 1960s. Children enter their frogs in the jumping contest during National Tom Sawyer Days. There's also a fence painting contest to see who can paint the fastest. The idea for this contest comes from a scene in Tom Sawyer, in which Tom has been told to paint the fence in front of the house he lives in. It's a beautiful day, and he would rather be doing anything else. As his friends walk by, he makes them believe that it's fun to paint, and they join in the "fun". By the end of the day, the fence has three coats of paint!
Although the story of Tom Sawyer is a fiction, it's based on facts. If you go to Hannibal, you'll see the white fence, which still stands at Twain's boyhood home.

Ques:Do you enjoy seeing the stars twinkling at night? Or do you love the ocean and sea, diving and racing with lovely dolphins? With heavy burdens on their shoulders, teenagers find it hard to pull out. Even if they are free, they prefer to occupy themselves with computer games or watching TV. How to get children away from screens is a great concern for parents. Now there is some good news for those concerned parents and teachers. A campaign is being launched to encourage children to surrender 30 minutes of screen time a day to head for the great outdoors. The newly formed Wild Network, a collaboration of nearly 400 organizations, is attempting to attract youngsters away from television and computer screens and into fields, woods and parks. Organizers say it is the UK's biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and outdoor play, and claim it could help improve fitness, mental alertness and general well-being. A documentary film, Project Wild Thing, will herald the launch at more than 50 cinemas across the UK from Friday. It looks at the increasingly fragile link between children and nature. Members of the network include the National Trust, RSPB, Play England and the NHS Sustainable Development Unit. Andy Simpson, chairman of Wild Network, said, "The tragic truth is that kids have lost touch with nature and the outdoors in just one generation." Time spent outdoors is down, roaming ranges have fallen drastically, activity levels are declining and the ability to identify common species has been lost. Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include collecting conkers , camping, snail racing, and observing autumn colors on trees. From January, the network will aim to make suggestions to politicians on how government can do more _ This is not the first time the message of fewer screens, more play has been brought up. Children in the 1980s were entreated to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don't You, which somewhat confusingly called on its viewers to "switch off your TV set, and go to do...

Ques:The time may soon come when we say goodbye to most of the world's languages. Today humans express themselves in over 6,000 different languages. But that is quickly changing. Many scientists say that over half of these languages will disappear within the next 50 years. After 100 years, the languages used in the world will not be more than 20. Why? It is because people from different cultures live and work together much more often than before. This brings changes. The languages of the world's main culture are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures. Most international trade takes place in world languages such as English. People respect their own cultures and traditions, but when it comes to getting a job, knowing a world language is often necessary. It may mean the difference between success and failure. Technology works on the change of languages in an even more amazing way. Modern media such as radio and television give young people in developing countries much knowledge about the world. But this knowledge doesn't come in words from the mouths of their parents or the elders in their neighborhood. It usually comes in the language of a different culture. People in different cultures think it good for them to share a popular language. They can quickly share ideas and work together. Knowing the same language means easier communication and is a basis for trust. Is the death of a small local language such a terrible thing? The answer is maybe. Many cultures may have words for many useful things we know nothing about. If their languages die, their valuable wisdom may be lost forever. The future of the world's language depends on our actions now. Will we protect endangered languages or allow them to quietly disappear? Time will have the last word. Scientists say that within 50 years, perhaps, there will be only _ languages in the world. A) no more than 20 B) over 3,000 C) 4,000 D) around 3,000

Ques:Whether you're up for a Crocodile Dundee's adventure or you'd just like a taste of the Australian sun, the beaches in and around Sydney can offer you all that and more. Sydney Beach Sydney Beach is located at Sydney's northernmost tip on an extension of land ending at Palm Beach. Before checking out the golden sand, take a quick tour of the houses of millionaires from the art and film industries. Palm Beach Only about an hour from downtown Sydney, Palm Beach offers a long stretch of clean sand and water. With parking near the center of the beach, that leaves the rest of it as a peaceful location with a _ population, from which you can go surfing but take care -- without the huge crowds of other Sydney's beaches, Palm Beach doesn't afford quite the safety level to be found elsewhere. Volunteer lifesavers are on duty only on weekends and holidays. Bondi Beach For the famous beach, Bondi Beach has to be your choice. Parking is difficult to find even on slow days, so consider taking public transport to this world--known beach in the eastern Sydney suburbs. Easily reachable by taxi, bus, and rail, Bondi Beach offers sun bathing, swimming, snorkeling, and all sorts of water sports fun. If you're in the mood for a bit of exercise, two scenic coastal walks will afford you great views and sights along the shore. Take in views from Mackenzie's Point. It starts at Bondi and heads south to Bronte Beach. But don't try to swim in Mackenzie's Bay -- it holds dangers such as hidden rocks. Bronte Beach Your second choice for a scenic coastal walk covers a few miles and takes you from Bronte Beach to Waverly Cemetery, where many famous Australians are buried, including the poet Henry Lawson. What's the purpose of the text? A) It aims to show the scenery of the beaches in and around Sydney. B) It aims to introduce the culture and customs in and around Sydney. C) It aims to show the activities on the beaches in and around Sydney. D) It aims to attract the visitors to the beaches in and around Sydney.

Ques:My granddaughter, Shari, owns The Berry Factory in Sacramento, California, and her mother, Joan, and I were helping with the Valentine's Day rush. We'd dipped hundreds of berries, arranged gift baskets and packaged orders to be shipped around the country. By the end of the day, the two middle-aged women, Joan and I, were exhausted. Shari didn't seem tired. That was typical Shari. Though she was very busy, I'd seen her give away berries to everybody -- parking attendants, mail carriers and hairdressers. "For me?" they would say, bursting into a smile. As a "thank you", Shari took us out for dinner. But there was a 45-minute wait at her favorite restaurant. "No big deal. There's another place just up the road," she said, driving us there. This time we walked right in. When the waitress came to take our drink orders, Shari reached into her handbag, pulling something out. "I want you to have these," she said, handing the waitress a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries. "She will love those berries!" I thought. But the waitress seemed _ . She only let out a "thank you" before grabbing the box and rushing into the kitchen. A few minutes later, the waitress returned with our iced tea. "I apologize," she said. "My best friend and I had promised to send each other something every Valentine's Day. But she passed away last year. I didn't know how I'd get through this day without her. Then you handed me that box.""I'm so sorry to hear that," said Shari. "It's not much, but I hope you can enjoy them.""Oh, I will," the waitress said. "See, every year we always sent each other the same thing; a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries bought from our favourite store, The Berry Factory." Which of the following words can best describe Shari? A) Talkative B) Creative C) Kind-hearted D) Well-known

Input: CENTENNIAL, Colo. - Cinemark Theaters has been cleared of liability for a mass shooting that left 12 people dead and 70 others injured.
Jurors deliberated less than three hours in the civil lawsuit filed by 27 victims and family members.
“I’m gravely disappointed in the outcome,” said plaintiff’s attorney Marc Bern. “Unfortunately, the victims of this tragedy… have been dealt another blow.”
Bern said Cinemark was negligent in providing for the safety of its patrons.
He said the company should have had cameras outside the theater, a silent alarm on the back door and armed guards.
He noted that Cinemark used armed guards at that theater on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
“But for a special event, expecting a thousand people for the premier of a blockbuster move, they did not have that type of security,” he said.
Cinemark’s attorney, Kevin Taylor, said jurors could see that the mass shooting, committed by James Holmes, was “unstoppable, unforeseeable, unpreventable and unpredictable.”
“The evidence is that by mid-June, Mr. Holmes was very fully committed,” Taylor said. “In between mid-June and when he committed this act, he completely booby-trapped his apartment in ways that were heretofore unforeseen, and never experienced before by law enforcement that investigated the Oklahoma City bombing and that investigated the Unibomber.”
Taylor told Denver7 that jurors determined that Cinemark endured a tremendous tragedy, “as did the victims of this case, the entire Aurora community and first responders at the hands of a madman."
“Justice was done, in our view, 11 and a half months ago when Mr. Holmes was found solely at fault for this horrendous, horrendous crime, that I hope our state and our nation never again endures,” he said.
Bern said he believes there were significant issues and substantial areas where an appeal will very likely reverse this decision.
“We fully expect to try this case again,” he said. “I believe these victims were denied justice.”
When asked what evidence was excluded from the civil trial, Bern wouldn’t elaborate.
“We’ll wait until we review the transcript before outlining what evidence should be included in the appeal,” he said.
Bern said he hopes there have been changes in security regardless of the outcome of this case.
“Just today,” he said, “they’re talking about another plane that went down (Egypt Air) and are speculating that it might have been the result of some kind of terrorist act. We have to be on constant lookout, constant vigil, whether it’s at the airport, the theater or wherever. We are living in a post 9/11 world and we must understand that. We can’t act like it’s 1950.”
Taylor said Cinemark is a company that first and foremost cares deeply about all of its patrons and has a very special place in its corporate heart.
“I think you saw that from the employees who testified for all the victims of this [tragedy] including the people who were killed and injured in auditorium number nine.” ||||| Victims of the theater shooting filed suit against Cinemark alleging that security was lax
In this Wednesday, May 11, 2016 file photo, a colorful sign decorates the entrance of the Cinemark Century 16 movie theater in Aurora, Colo. ( Brennan Linsley, The Associated Press )
CENTENNIAL — The owner of the Aurora movie theater where 12 people were murdered in one of the nation's worst mass shootings is not to blame for the attack, a jury decided Thursday.
The decision is the first in a trial against theater chain Cinemark stemming from the 2012 shooting, which also wounded 70 people. It means that Cinemark will not have to pay money to any of the survivors of the shooting or relatives of those killed in it who filed suit against the company in state court. The victims argued Cinemark's security failings helped enable the attack.
A separate case against the theater filed in federal court is scheduled for trial in July.
"The community has spoken," Cinemark attorney Kevin Taylor said after the verdict was announced. "Its conscience has been heard."
The jury of five men and one woman deliberated for about four hours before reaching the decision. The verdict was read in the same Arapahoe County courtroom where the fate of the gunman was decided less than a year ago, but it lacked the same emotion.

None of the shooting's victims were in court when the decision was announced. Instead, as this latest ripple of the shooting crested and fell, the audience consisted mostly of people paid to be there.
Outside the courtroom, the victims' attorney, Marc Bern, sighed heavily and vowed a quick appeal.
"This is an unjust verdict," he said.
After the shooting, approximately 60 survivors of the attack and families of those killed filed lawsuits in state and federal courts against Cinemark. Those lawsuits eventually were consolidated into two cases — one in state court and one in federal court. Among other things, the victims argued that Cinemark should have had armed guards at the Century Aurora 16 theater the night of the shooting, when 1,000 people were expected to attend the midnight premiere of the Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises."
The plaintiffs in the state case include three parents whose children were murdered in the shooting, a man who now walks with a permanent limp and a woman who had to hold her own intestines in to survive. Because of how the trial was structured, though, none of them testified during the case.
Instead, the jury was asked only to assess whether Cinemark should have known about the risk of a mass shooting and whether the theater had failed to protect patrons. If Cinemark had been found liable, the victims could have testified about their injuries and medical expenses before a separate jury tasked with assigning monetary amounts to their suffering.
Bern said that structure may have hurt his clients' case. But he said his appeal, which could lead to a new trial if successful, will focus on other types of excluded evidence.
The judge, for instance, did not allow Bern to tell jurors about a U.S. Department of Homeland Security memo released two months before the shooting that warned movie theaters could be targets for terrorist attacks.
Bern has said that memo should have put Cinemark on notice to improve its security.
The theater company spent more than $500,000 on five expert witnesses who testified in its defense during the trial, according to testimony. The plaintiffs called one expert witness in their case, who had been paid about $22,000.
"Unfortunately," Bern said about his clients, "I think they are going to have to wait some period of time before they get justice."
Taylor, though, said justice was done last August, when the gunman was sentenced to 12 consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole plus another 3,318 years — one of the longest prison sentences in American history.
That killer, he said after the verdict Thursday, was "completely unpredictable, unforeseeable, unpreventable and unstoppable." To put blame on Cinemark would have unjustly extended liability to businesses across the country for things they could not possibly predict, he said.
"The inescapable conclusion," Taylor said, "was that this was a horrible tragedy."

Output: | One of the nation's largest movie chains will not have to pay the victims of the 2012 Colorado movie theater shooting after a jury ruled in its favor Thursday, CBS Denver reports. According to the Denver Post, 28 plaintiffs comprised of victims wounded in the shooting and the families of the 12 people killed sued Cinemark, operator of the Century Aurora 16 theater, alleging the theater didn't do enough to prevent James Holmes' massacre. They argued the theater should have had armed security guards, silent alarms on exit doors, and security cameras behind the building. They also said there should have been perimeter patrols around the theater, the Denver Channel reports. “If the theater hadn’t failed…this tragedy would have been prevented,” says Marc Bern, an attorney for the plaintiffs. But the jury in the civil trial ruled unanimously that Cinemark had no reason to expect a mass shooting was imminent. Holmes' attack was the first mass shooting at a movie theater in the US. "If Cinemark is liable under these circumstances, every single business in the world will be held liable for what happens on their property, regardless of how foreseeable it is," the Post quotes an attorney for Cinemark as saying. Bern calls it an "unjust verdict." The victims argued that mass shootings are so common now that it's the responsibility of all businesses to be prepared for them. A second civil trial involving another batch of victims is scheduled for July. |

Q: Benedykt Ossolinsky, age 39, began to grow childish.
On the first day of his midlife crisis, he stood in front of the mirror examining his receding hairline and wrinkles on his face. In that very moment, while staring at his reflection he found in his eyes that mad look he had last seen thirty years ago in a photograph taken at a tethered flying model competition. The photo was taken by Henryk the servant, when his little charge decided he wanted a red biplane model Curtiss Consolidated Skyhawk Cruisader 3A "Bingo Star".
This new look was also noticed by his co-workers, who for the most part, considered him to be an infantile spoiled brat. It fit with their idea of a boss.
And Benedykt was indeed the boss, even though he himself couldn't quite believe it. He was the head of a foundation for the self-promotion of the Ossolinsky family, well-known descendants of Polish-American aristocrats, engaged in business ventures there, and charity work here. The position was highly honorable and very prestigious.
Just as the employees didn't like Benedykt, in equal measure Benedykt didn't like his job. He considered it extremely stressful and felt it forced him to super-human sacrifices. Everything was arranged by the family as a penance for avoiding work. He had to go to the office at least three times a week for two full hours and entertain various smiling journalists, drink coffee with them and listen. He had to sign letters and open gifts from various companies hoping to win favors. And he had to play golf and attend social functions, movie premiers, shows and art exhibits. The family had only planned for three months of vacation time a year. Scandal! As a sign of protest he took to coming to the office wearing a t-shirt with the slogan "Attention, Baby!" on it. Question: Who didn't like Benedykt?
A: | His employees |

A: Right. And I think even in the elections, they choose who they're going to follow and who they're not, and basically you know, if a candidate can get them to follow, then the news will, you know, kind of publicize his name.

Problem: New Legitimacy: Organized crime was soon to have a formidable adversary in its bid to control Las Vegas — corporate cash. Though Las Vegas had developed a powerful local economy, few major outside investments were made in the city, due primarily to mob infiltration and its inherent ties to illegal activities. That would change dramatically with the 1966 arrival of billionaire Howard Hughes. A legitimate businessman, Hughes was nonetheless eccentric and dramatic, a style suited to the Las Vegas ethos. True to the myth, the reclusive Hughes immediately cloistered himself in the Desert Inn's penthouse. Several weeks later he was asked — then ordered — to vacate the room to make room for high rollers, whereupon he promptly bought the property and fired the management. Thus began Hughes' legendary three-year, $300-million Las Vegas buying spree. When it was over, Hughes owned six casinos, an airport, and an airline, along with numerous plots of land stretching from the Strip to the mountains. Hughes' actions would have beneficial repercussions, both immediate and lasting. Because of the new legitimacy Las Vegas acquired from Hughes' investments, established companies such as Hilton Hotels bought into the gaming business, and their influence helped draw a line in the desert sand between legitimate operations and mob casinos, where illegal skimming of profits was rampant. That, combined with the formation of the Nevada Gaming Control Board, would signal the beginning of the end for heavy mob influence in the city. Las Vegas with a Vision As corporations moved in and the mob was slowly pushed out, a new Las Vegas emerged. The legitimization of gambling led to its increased legalization across the US. What was once a sure thing became much more competitive. Casino operators had to reassess the nature of their business. The first to really do so was Steve Wynn, a Las Vegas resident and owner of the Golden Nugget. In the mid-1980s, Wynn began plans to reinvigorate Las Vegas with a new resort. He bought several Strip properties — the Silver Slipper and Castaways among them — and demolished them to make way for a new kind of resort — Mirage — which became an instant success. <sep>What was the first property that the Mirage owner owned in Vegas?<sep>Silver Slipper

Paragraph: Madrid, Spain (CNN) -- Relatives of a woman killed in a Spanish airline crash were erroneously given the remains of another victim, and then were asked by authorities to return them, CNN partner network CNN+ reported Thursday. The victims of the crash were first laid out at a Madria convention center. A Madrid judge has opened an investigation into the error, and judicial sources say the initial indication is that the mixup occurred not in the proper identification of the victim, but in delivering the wrong remains to the family in question, CNN+ reported. The family Wednesday received an urn numbered 104, and were told it contained the ashes of their loved one, Pilar Gonzalez Ferreira, who died in the crash. But as the family was preparing to leave Madrid, officials called to tell them about the error and asked for the return of urn 104, CNN+ reported. Instead of urn 104, the family was supposed to have received urn 134, which actually contains the remains of Pilar Gonzalez, CNN+ reported, citing judicial sources and another family which also lost a relative in the crash. The Spanair MD82 jet crashed last week at Madrid's airport as the plane was trying to take off, killing 154 people. The aircraft, bound for Spain's Canary Islands, managed to rise only slightly before coming down quickly to the right of the runway, its tail section hitting the ground first, just off the asphalt. Then the out-of-control plane skidded and bounced at least three times as it careered 1,200 meters (3,840 feet) across uneven terrain and exploded, coming to rest in a gully, a top official of the investigative commission told a news conference in Madrid on Tuesday. Many of the bodies were badly charred from the fire, and authorities have used DNA samples to carry out numerous identifications.

Example: For four years we have waited expectantly for the pitter patter of tiny paws. Soon, that wait could finally be over. 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

President Donald Trump on Tuesday denounced the recent rise in bomb threats against Jewish community centers across the country, saying the anti-Semitism and racism that continue to afflict America must be addressed.
"Anti-Semitism is horrible, and it's gonna stop and it has to stop," Trump told NBC News in an exclusive interview, after touring the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.
Federal authorities have been investigating a wave of phoned-in bomb threats to at least 10 Jewish community centers, including in Alabama, Ohio, Illinois, Texas and New York. No one was injured, and the threats appeared to be hoaxes, the Jewish Community Center Association of North America told NBC News on Monday.
The new spate of threats has brought the total number to almost 70 since the beginning of the year, according to the association.
In a separate count of hate crime incidents, the Southern Poverty Law Center found nearly 2,000 in the 34 days after the November election expressing anti-Semitic and other bias-related harassment.
"I think it's terrible," Trump said of the anti-Semetic threats. "I think it's horrible. Whether it's anti-Semitism or racism or any — anything you wanna think about having to do with the divide. Anti-Semitism is, likewise, it's just terrible."
He added, "You don't know where it's coming from, but I hope they catch the people."

When asked about his immigration executive orders that have caused a measure of chaos at airports and have now been partially blocked by federal courts — pending new orders which could come out as early as Tuesday — Trump said he was focused on safety, and love.
"We have to have a safe country," he said. "We have to let people come in that are going to love the country. This is about love. This building is about love. And we have to have people come in that are going to love the country, not people that are gonna harm the country."
The president's comments come after he sidestepped a question at a press conference last week about personally rebuking anti-Semitism, instead choosing to brand himself as "the least anti-Semitic" person in America.
Trump's remarks Tuesday were met with stinging criticism from Steven Goldstein, the executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect, as a Band-Aid and a "pathetic asterisk of condescension."
"Make no mistake: The Anti-Semitism coming out of this Administration is the worst we have ever seen from any Administration," Goldstein said in a statement, adding, "When President Trump responds to Anti-Semitism proactively and in real time, and without pleas and pressure, that’s when we’ll be able to say this President has turned a corner. This is not that moment."

During his tour of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, Trump was shown an exhibit on slavery during the American Revolution. He was joined by eldest daughter Ivanka and two black members of his team: Housing and Urban Development secretary nominee Ben Carson and administration official Omarosa Manigault.
The museum, which this month reached a milestone of 1 million visitors since opening in September, includes an exhibit about Carson's humble beginnings in Detroit to his rise as a neurosurgeon and eventual Republican presidential candidate.
Trump later told reporters that he plans to visit the Holocaust Museum and going is "very important to me."
To kick off Black History Month, Trump held a round-table meeting with African-American leaders at the White House in early February. At the time, he lauded the African-American history museum — located on the National Mall — as a place where people can learn about prominent civil rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Frederick Douglass.
As a candidate in October, Trump pledged a "new deal for black America," which included putting more police on the streets and targeting "blighted communities" with "disaster designation" in order to spur the transformation of urban cities.

Trump during the campaign was frequently criticized for painting a bleak picture of African-American communities.
During his first month in office, Trump's administration has been marked by numerous crises, battles with Democrats and the media, and protests over his signature policies on immigration. He defended his White House last week as running like a "fine-tuned machine." ||||| poster="http://v.politico.com/images/1155968404/201702/3752/1155968404_5331177498001_5331149930001-vs.jpg?pubId=1155968404" true Trump finally confronts anti-Semitism head-on 'The anti-Semitic threats targeting our Jewish community and community centers are horrible and are painful,' the president says.
For the first time in a week, President Donald Trump on Tuesday unequivocally condemned anti-Semitism, following in his daughter’s footsteps after twice last week refusing to explicitly denounce discrimination against Jews.
“The anti-Semitic threats targeting our Jewish community and community centers are horrible and are painful and a very sad reminder of the work that still must be done to root out hate and prejudice and evil,” the president said, reading brief remarks after concluding a tour of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.
Story Continued Below
“This tour was a meaningful reminder of why we have to fight bigotry, intolerance and hatred in all of its very ugly forms,” he said.
Trump spent roughly an hour walking through the museum with his daughter Ivanka Trump; Housing and Urban Development secretary nominee Ben Carson and his wife, Candy; Fox News contributor Alveda King, niece of the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.; and Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.).
The president told reporters he plans to visit the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. “I will be doing it soon,” he said, when asked about a potential trip. “Very important. Very important for me.”
Trump’s attempt Tuesday to calm the waters came after the president and his White House alarmed many in the Jewish community and anti-discrimination groups. His long-awaited remarks came weeks after he omitted a reference to the slaughter of 6 million Jews from a Holocaust remembrance statement and days after he declined to directly condemn anti-Semitism when confronted by reporters at news conferences on back-to-back days.
But it didn’t appease some Democrats. “It’s not hard to see a connection between the rhetoric used by the white nationalists given a platform by President Donald Trump’s campaign and the increase in threats against the Jewish people,” House Democratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley (D-N.Y.) said in a statement. “President Trump’s statement is long overdue and doesn’t begin to scratch the surface of what needs to be done.”
Steven Goldstein, executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect, based in New York, also said Trump’s efforts were too little and too late. “The President’s sudden acknowledgment of Anti-Semitism is a Band-Aid on the cancer of Anti-Semitism that has infected his own Administration,” Goldstein said in a statement.
Trump throughout the campaign battled allegations of anti-Semitic influences on his operation, including from campaign chairman Steve Bannon, who had run the conservative news outlet Breitbart. He also failed to quickly disavow the endorsement of white supremacist David Duke, and many of his supporters pushed anti-Semitic imagery, including Pepe the Frog, a popular internet meme among white nationalists.
Trump’s condemnation on Tuesday came hours after former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton called on him to speak out against anti-Semitic violence.
“JCC threats, cemetery desecration & online attacks are so troubling & they need to be stopped. Everyone must speak out, starting w/ @POTUS,” Clinton tweeted Tuesday morning.
Her post followed a call from the Anti-Defamation League for the Trump administration to take action in response to a wave of reported threats against Jewish community centers (often referred to as JCCs) around the country. At least 10 such centers have received bomb threats in recent days, the fourth wave of threats against JCCs the ADL has identified this year.
On Monday night, Ivanka Trump, who converted to Orthodox Judaism ahead of her 2009 wedding, tweeted: “America is a nation built on the principle of religious tolerance. We must protect our houses of worship & religious centers. #JCC”
Ahead of his brief address, the president had told MSNBC’s Craig Melvin that “anti-Semitism is horrible and it’s gonna stop and it has to stop.” He added that the racial divide in America is “age-old” and speculated that “something” is going on that prevents the country from fully healing.
“Sometimes it gets better and then it busts apart. But we wanna have it get very much better, get unified and stay together,” Trump said. “But you’ve seen it where oftentimes it’ll get much better and then it blows up.”
He credited the new African-American history museum for helping bridge that divide, though.
“Part of the beauty of what you’re doing here with the museum and the success of the museum — the success is very important because it’s doing tremendous numbers. Tremendous numbers of people coming in,” he said. “I think that really helps to get that divide and bring it much closer together. If not, perfect.”
Trump was joined in his denouncement of anti-Semitism by House Speaker Paul Ryan. “Anti-Semitism in any form is abhorrent, and I encourage authorities nationwide to take these threats seriously,” he tweeted on Tuesday.
Trump’s rhetoric Tuesday was a stark contrast to his passive language last week. Trump failed to take advantage of his first opportunity last Wednesday, when a reporter asked about the rise of anti-Semitic incidents across the country.
Standing alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump immediately discussed his Electoral College victory before pledging his administration will do all it can to “stop long-simmering racism and every other thing that’s going on.” He also hinted that he personally can’t be anti-Semitic, pointing to his Jewish family members: Ivanka; her husband, senior White House adviser Jared Kushner; and their three children.
At a news conference Thursday, Trump again caused agitation. In search of a “friendly reporter,” the president called on Jake Turx of the weekly Orthodox Jewish publication Ami Magazine, who prefaced his question by noting that he did not believe Trump to be an anti-Semite before launching into a query about bomb threats against JCCs.
Complaining that he wasn’t asked a “simple” or “fair question,” Trump ordered the reporter to “sit down” and insisted he understood the remainder of the incomplete question. The president then declared himself to be “the least anti-Semitic person that you’ve ever seen in your entire life” and added that he’s also “the least racist person.”
He also recalled Netanyahu’s defense of him at the prior day’s news conference, where the prime minister argued that “there is no greater supporter of the Jewish people and the Jewish state than” Trump.
In neither instance, however, did Trump condemn anti-Semitic acts of violence, instead opting to defend himself against possible charges of being an anti-Semite or racist.
On Tuesday, asked explicitly by MSNBC’s Melvin whether he would denounce anti-Semitism “once and for all,” Trump said yes — and claimed he’s been doing it all along.
“Oh, of course,” he said. “And I do it — wherever I get a chance, I do it.”

Student: | Recent incidents of anti-Semitism—including a wave of threats against Jewish community centers—are "horrible" and a "reminder of the work that still must be done to root out hate and prejudice and evil," President Trump said Tuesday, echoing comments made by his daughter Ivanka a day earlier, reports Politico. Anti-Semitism "has to stop," Trump added, per NBC News. His comments, following a visit to the National Museum of African American History and Culture, came after Trump was asked about the fight against anti-Semitism by a reporter from an Orthodox Jewish publication last week. In his response, Trump said the queston was unfair, told the reporter to "sit down," and called himself the "least anti-Semitic person that you've ever seen," per CNN. In a tweet earlier Tuesday, Hillary Clinton called on Trump to speak out against "JCC threats, cemetery desecration & online attacks." Paul Ryan likewise denounced anti-Semitism Tuesday, noting "any form is abhorrent, and I encourage authorities nationwide to take these threats seriously." The chief executive of the Anti-Defamation League praised Trump's comments in a tweet. "Glad @POTUS stated #antisemitism is horrible. Now need @whitehouse to share plans on how to 'stop' it. ADL ready to help," wrote Jonathan Greenblatt. But the executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect was unmoved. Trump's comments are only a "pathetic asterisk of condescension" after "pleas and pressure," he said in a statement. |

Ques: The newspaper must provide for the reader the facts, pure, unprejudiced , objectively selected facts. But in these days the complex news it must provide more; it must supply explanation, the meaning of the facts. This is the most important assignment facing American journalism--to make clear to the reader the problems of the day, to make international news understandable as community news, to recognize that there is no longer any such thing(with the possible exception of society news)as "local" news, because any event in the international area has local reaction in the financial market, political circles, indeed, of our very way of life. There is in journalism a widespread view that when you consider giving an explanation, you are entering dangerous water, the swirling tides of opinion. This is nonsense. The opponents of explanation insist that the writer and the editor shall confine himself to the "facts". This insistence raises two questions; What are the facts? And are the bare facts enough? As for the first question, consider how a so-called "factual" story comes about. The reporter collects, say, fifty facts; out of these fifty, his space being necessarily restricted, he selects the ten that he considers most important. This is Judgment Number One. Then he or his editor decides which of these ten facts shall constitute the beginning of the article. (this is an important decision because many readers do not proceed beyond the first paragraph) This is Judgment Number Two. Then. The night editor decides whether the article shall be presented on page one, where it has a large influence, or on page twenty-four, where it has little. Judgment Number Three. Thus in the show of a so-called "factual" of "objective" story, at least three judgments are involved. And they are judgments mot at all unlike those involved in explanation, in which reporter and editor, calling upon their research resources , their general background, and their "news neutralism" , arrive at a conclusion as to the importance of the news. The... The best title for this passage is . A) Function of the Night Editor B) Explaining the News. C) Subjective versus Objective Processes D) Choosing Facts

Ques: Anyone who is afraid of failure and afraid to face challenges will never taste success, so said our professor in marketing. I laughed it off at that time, but got frightened when it actually happened in my life. I landed in a small city in the Middle East to set up a firm, a world-class car rental firm. Having decided on the project, I earnestly settled in preparation. With a positive mind, I told myself nothing should stop me now, and was more than keen to make it a success. However, the least expected thing happened. Iraq invaded Kuwait. Tension ran high in the region. Eventually the war broke out, and many people fled the country, leaving my firm in deep trouble. As usual, "things become difficult, and every effort seems to bring disappointment, it can be tempting to lower your expectations or even water down your goals and ambitions."I was no exception. I thought of running away. I remembered the words of Thomas Edison, "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to succeed when they gave up." I decided to hang on, telling myself, "I am not afraid of challenges and obstacles." I stayed on through months of uncertainty and insecurity. Finances ran low, and banks could not wait to get their dues. To add to all this, the banks even threatened to take all my vehicles. I felt I made a wrong decision to move there. I was now ready to face failure. I was living against all hopes, believing that something good would happen. After 2 months the war ended. My persistence paid off: people started flooding back and the car bookings picked up, five times over. Success comes to the one who dares, even after failure, to think positively and look forward confidently. After all, it is only the experience that makes a man tough. Failure does not mean you will never make it. It means that it will take a little longer. It provides us with a learning experience. The main method the author uses to support his understanding of his professor's viewpoint is _ . A) offering analyses B) providing explanations C) making comparisons D) giving examples

Ques: In Vietnam, Tet-Trung-Thu, or the Mid-Autumn Festival, is one of the most popular family holidays. It is held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. Vietnamese families plan their activities around their children on this special day. In a Vietnamese folk story, parents were working so hard to prepare for the harvest that they left the children playing by themselves. To make up for that time, the parents would use the Mid-Autumn Festival as a chance to show their love and thanks for their children. As a result, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Children's Festival. In the United States, this tradition continues in many Vietnamese-American families. Activities are often centered on children and education. Parents buy lanterns for their children so that they can take part in a candle and lantern parade at dawn. Lanterns mean brightness, while the parade means success in school. Vietnamese markets sell a variety of lanterns, but the most popular children's lantern is the star lantern. Other children's activities include arts and crafts in which children make face masks and lanterns. Children also perform traditional Vietnamese dances for adults and take part in contests for prizes. Unicorn dancers are also very popular. Like Chinese people, Vietnamese parents tell their children folk stories and serve moon cakes and other special treats under the bright moon. A favorite folk story is about a carp that wanted to become a dragon. The carp worked and worked and finally changed itself into a dragon. Parents use this story to encourage their children to work hard so that they can become whatever they want to be. The parents tell their children folk stories because _ . A) children like listening to them in the evening B) they want to show their love for their children C) they want to encourage their children to work hard D) they want to make up for lost time

Input: Austin, Texas (CNN) -- In February 2009, Sam Bassett got called to Gov. Rick Perry's office. Bassett was then chairman of the Texas Forensic Science Commission, an agency set up in 2005 to regulate state crime labs after a series of embarrassing scandals. The first matter on its plate involved the 2004 execution of Cameron Todd Willingham, whose murder conviction rested largely on testimony that many arson experts now call outdated and incorrect. Aides to Perry, who allowed Willingham's execution to go forward, started off with general questions about how things were going at the commission, a relatively new agency, Bassett said. But then they started asking about Willingham, questioning whether the commission's review of the evidence in his case was beyond its legal powers.The former chairman of a state commission criticizes Gov.

Based on the paragraph, is the response to the question is factually correct?
Choices: A. no B. yes | A. |
Teacher: Write the right answer to the question based on the context passage.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
Television drama's whole point is to bring you through an often slow start, followed by a complex development to a point where there are two or three potential dénouements before, "Cut!", it is the end of the episode and you will have to await the "right answer" in the following week's show.
This post came to me at 10pm last night, on Day 16 of this challenge, after a day of holidaying in London and with my head (and feet) too weary to put finger to touchscreen.
Mrs Mc and I had just watched another live instalment of Broadchurch, murder mystery extraordinaire, particularly since in the second series there is no actual fresh murder to investigate. The verdict is about to be given on the accused killer from Series 1 when the inevitable happens... Cue title music.
This moment has even gained a moniker in British homes, based on the theme tune to the real masters of the four-times-a-week cliffhanger, London-based soap opera Eastenders. It's call a "ba...ba...ba...ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba" (YouTube will provide overseas readers with auditory explanation).
Eastenders is such a master of writing in the perfect pace that every 28 minute episode ends with a tantalising screen freeze on the latest shocked face / smirking baddy / confused victim. For really big stories the cliffhanger can last significantly longer. This week, to celebrate the show's 30 year birthday, we will finally find out the answer to a question unanswered for the past 14 months: "Who killed Lucy Beale?"
Now, most classrooms do not involve murder, incest, dodgy deals and danger, but "good teaching" encourages a type of pacing that totally ignores the ingredients that have millions in the edges of their seats every day: the good old cliffhanger. In fact, we see teachers giving away the punchline at the beginning: "Today we are learning this:...". Question: What was the soap opera admired by British people that the author says is a master of writing?
Solution: Eastenders
Reason: The seventh sentence of the passage clearly states that Eastenders is master of writing. So, the answer is Eastenders.
Now, solve this instance: Lancôme Juicy Tubes changed my life.
Ok, well that's a slight exaggeration but it was the first high-end make-up item that I ever bought and it made me feel like I was really getting somewhere. I'd got a good job, was in the process of buying my own house and I could afford to buy premium beauty products. I chose a transparent lemon yellow gloss with tiny flecks of iridescent glitter in, and over the following months I treated myself to several other Juicy Tube variants including a shimmery nude gloss called Pamplemousse which I wore on nights out for years (incidentally Pamplemousse is still going!).
Fast forward several (ahem…) years and Juicy Tubes are still going strong, but there's a new member of the Juicy family vying for attention – the Juicy Shaker.*. Another lip product, this one is a nourishing tinted lip oil which acts a bit like a gloss, and I was sent two of the new shades to try out – Piece of Cake and Show Me The Honey.
Juicy Shakers are a bi-phase nourishing lip oil, when the product is allowed to settle the pigment falls to the bottom and the oil rises to the top, giving a split effect. Then you need to shake the bottle to mix the two layers together, giving the product it's name. The ingredients include sweet almond oil, omega 3 and cranberry oil and really help care for your lips unlike most other glosses.
Show Me The Honey is a nude coral shade, it looks rather orange and scary in the bottle but in reality it's much more of a gentle shade. Piece of Cake is a damson pink, and again looks much darker in the bottle. I found that Piece of Cake matches almost exactly with the natural colour of my lips so it's perfect for when I want my make-up to look really pared back with glossy supple natural looking lips. Question: Which lipgloss matched the customer's lip color the closest?
Student: | Piece of Cake |

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

input: Make use of the article to answer the questions. Peter waved goodbye and closed the door slowly as Jane left home to visit her grandmother. Expecting a whole day to relax, he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on his first day off in months. "This will be like a walk in the park," he'd told his wife, "I'll look after the kids, and you can go to visit your grandma." Things started well, but just after eight o'clock, his three little "good kids"--Adam, Bob, and Christopher--came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted "breakfast, daddy." When food had not appeared within thirty seconds, Adam began using his spoon on Christopher's head as if it were a drum. Christopher started to shout loudly in time to the beat . Bob chanted "Where's my toast, where's my toast" in the background. Peter realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds. Life became worse after breakfast. Adam wore Bob's underwear on his head. Bob locked himself in the bathroom, while Christopher shouted again because he was going to wet his pants. Nobody could find clean socks, although they were before their very eyes. Someone named "Not Me" had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes. Peter knew the talk show had already started. By ten o'clock, things were out of control. Christopher was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter. Adam was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his color pencils. Bob, thankfully, appeared to be reading quietly in the family room, but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands. Peter realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible. At exactly 11:17, Peter called the daycare centre ."I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away.

input: Make use of the article to answer the questions. (CNN) -- A grand jury has brought felony charges against three Dallas, Texas, police officers who were caught on patrol car dashboard cameras beating a motorcyclist after a chase, prosecutors said Thursday.
Officers Paul Bauer and Kevin Randolph were charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon by a public servant, a charge that carries a five-year minimum prison term, in the September 5 beating of motorcyclist Andrew Collins. A third officer, Henry Duetsch, was charged with third-degree felony of tampering with physical evidence, said Jamille Bradfield, a spokeswoman for the Dallas County district attorney's office.
Bauer was also charged with assault and with official oppression, both misdemeanors. Randolph -- who was fired for failing probation after the incident -- was charged with official oppression and tampering with a governmental record, another felony.
There was no immediate response to the charges from the three defendants.
Prosecutors say Bauer and Randolph spotted Collins sitting on his motorcycle on a sidewalk the night of September 5. He drove off when the officers shined a spotlight on him, and they began pursuing him. An internal investigation found that Bauer and Randolph disregarded an order to stop the chase, with one of the officers saying, "Keep us going. I'm going to kick the s--- out of him."
Collins eventually stopped, and when the officers spotted him, Bauer struck the bike with his patrol car. Randolph beat Collins with his baton after Collins dropped to all fours, and Bauer began hitting and kicking him, police said. And Duetsch, who arrived on the scene after Collins had stopped, turned another cruiser's dashboard camera away from the scene when he arrived. 1. Felony charges were brought against whom?

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch visited Orlando, Florida, on Tuesday, nine days after what she called a "shattering attack" at a gay nightclub.
Lynch told the city's devastated gay community, "We stand with you in the light." She also announced a $1 million emergency grant to help Florida law enforcement pay for overtime costs related to the shooting, and she met with prosecutors, first responders and victims of the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
Her visit comes as investigators continue to dig into the background of Omar Mateen, the gunman who killed 49 people and injured dozens more on June 12 at the Pulse nightclub.
Lynch said it was a "cruel irony" that the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community — one defined almost entirely by love — is so often a target of hate.
She told the LGBTQ community, "We stand with you to say that the good in the world far outweighs the evil; that our common humanity transcends our differences; and that our most effective response to terror and hatred is compassion, unity and love."
Also Tuesday, Orlando police reopened streets near the nightclub and wound down their investigation at the crime scene. A makeshift memorial that went up nearby shortly after the massacre was still standing Tuesday, with chalk messages on the sidewalk and utility poles. Among them are drawings of hearts, the message "God bless'' and the hashtag "#Orlandostrong.''
Lynch declined to answer questions about the investigation and whether authorities are looking to charge anyone else in connection with the case.
She said investigators will "go back ... and see if there's anything we could have missed or anything we could have done better'' in terms of spotting Mateen as a threat.
She said "people often act out of more than one motivation,'' adding that a motive may never be known.
Mateen was shot and killed by police during the attack. Question: who said people often act out of more than one motivation

Like many other inventors before him, professor Slawomir Suwak designed only the things he needed himself. He had several patents on his conscience already: an automatic cork opener for wine in the indicative state, a portable set of board games for solving personality problems, a wallet with a mini-device for the duplications of 100 zloty bills, and a piece of equipment "the day after" used to irretrievably eliminate from the time-space continuum days burdened with a hangover.
Now came the time for a mini-device preventing the development of symptoms of psycho-motor aggression.
The device was really simple. It weighed about a kilo and was the size of a bag of flour. It was to be worn on the right wrist. The fact it had to be the right wrist was very important. Otherwise, the invention didn't work properly, or even worse, it produced results opposite to its intended effect.
Each day, its mini-containers had to be re-filled with substances promoting positive processes in the body leading to the return of good mood. There were three containers to re-fill, and the substances were not available on the local market and had to be imported using diplomatic channels from the USA. To operate the device, turning it on stand-by was enough. In that mode, it could be used continuously for one and a half hours. To recharge the batteries, you needed a charger, which was stored in a small suitcase. The device, when it was turned on, made a low murmur (or according to some - a loud growl) designed to keep the owner in a good mood.
Professor Suwak called his new baby "mini-anti-aggressor."

Problem:According to the Codex-Calendar of 354, the Colosseum could accommodate 87,000 people, although modern estimates put the figure at around 50,000. They were seated in a tiered arrangement that reflected the rigidly stratified nature of Roman society. Special boxes were provided at the north and south ends respectively for the Emperor and the Vestal Virgins, providing the best views of the arena. Flanking them at the same level was a broad platform or podium for the senatorial class, who were allowed to bring their own chairs. The names of some 5th century senators can still be seen carved into the stonework, presumably reserving areas for their use.

Example: A photo series on the popular Humans of New York Facebook page may have went viral and captured the nation’s attention last Tuesday, but for Daniel Kang, the post really hit home.
When Kang, a junior studying computer science at the University of Michigan, heard that the refugee pictured and his family were relocating to his hometown of Troy, Mich., he said he knew he had to help.
“I was really inspired by how intelligent he was and I knew a lot of people wanted to welcome him, so I thought, why not it be me?” he said.
On the Humans of New York Facebook page with over 16 million likes — including comments from President Obama — the seven-part picture series’ captions detail one Syrian scientist and his family’s tale of loss after a missile strike destroyed their home, forcing them to to flee to Turkey, now with plans of coming to the United States.
“Everything ended for us that day. That was our destiny. That was our share in life,” the scientist said. Battling stomach cancer, the loss of a home, career and seven family members, the man, whose name remains confidential to protect his identity as a refugee, expressed his hope for a new life in the United States.
“I learned today that I’m going to Troy, Michigan,” he said. “I know nothing about it. I just hope that it’s safe and that it’s a place where they respect science. I just want to get back to work. I want to be a person again. I don’t want the world to think I’m over. I’m still here.”
Knowing that refugees come to the United States with little more than they can carry, Kang quickly organized a crowdfunding campaign to help establish the man in his new home.
In four days, the GoFundMe page has raised over $16K in donations from over 700 people. On Saturday afternoon, actor Edward Norton also began a fundraiser for the scientist, raising even more for the refugee who says he “just wants to be a person again.”
“The response has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Kang. “A lot of people thanked me for doing a nice thing but I really feel like I was doing what anyone else would have done.”
Kang said he’s received many messages from people expressing their gratitude, those who want to reach out to the man personally, as well local companies interested in working with the scientist. This includes invitations to lecture at local colleges, research job opportunities and potential help from local medical facilities in treating the man’s stomach cancer.
“There’s definitely a lot of interest in helping him out,” he said.
The biggest concern, said Kang, are those skeptical of how the money will reach the man.
Kang, who has successfully crowdfunded in the past, is working closely with GoFundMe, the local refugee relocation agency Lutheran Social Services of Michigan, and is in communication with the Humans of New York staff to make sure all funding goes to the scientist.
In the end, Kang said he just hopes the scientist receives the welcome he deserves.
“If I could talk to him right now, I’d just tell him how sorry I am for everything he’s been through and that he’s coming to a great place. One of the things he said that resonated with me the most is that ‘I hope Troy is a place that appreciates science.’
I’d say out of all the cities in Michigan, Troy is the best place to raise a family, be a scientist and we can’t wait to have him.”

This man has suffered profound loss that would crush the spirit of many people and yet he still passionately wants a chance to contribute positively to the world. If we don’t welcome people like this into our communities and empower his dream of making an impact with his life, then we’re not the country we tell ourselves we are. Let’s reject the 'anti-human’ voices that tell us to fear refugees and show this man and his family what Americans are really made of. Let’s show that a country built by the energy and dreams of immigrants still believes in brave people who come here with hope for better life.
Everything we raise here will go to help this family so that the father can get the medical treatment he needs to live and pursue his work, and his family can build a new stable life after their tragedy, and…as the Scientist beautifully expresses…to support his dream of contributing to the world.
Thanks to Humans of New York for sharing these stories. Thanks to the team at CrowdRise for putting this together and figuring out how to get even the credit card transaction fees covered so we can get the maximum to the family.
Thanks to everyone who rallies together to create the power of the crowd. If enough of us kick in the price of two frappucinos, we can probably transform the experience of this family and show them that life can deliver healing and kindness, not just heartbreak.
Thanks to Benevolent, all donations are tax-deductible. We will work with Benevolent to use all donated funds to help this family and will seek to use any excess or unused funds to help the other 11 profiled in the HONY ‘Syrian American’ series.
Edward Norton ||||| DETROIT, MI -- Moved to tears by a Humans of New York feature on a Syrian refugee fleeing to Metro Detroit, Hollywood actor Edward Norton launched an online fundraiser that had raised nearly $450,000 for the widower and his four children as of Thursday afternoon.
"I didn't hear about it, but I want to thank him very much from the humanity perspective," the man told NBC News after hearing about the fundraiser's success. "There are people outside who need that money much more than me."
The man asked NBC to refer to him as "Abu Ammar," a fake named used to protect his relatives who remain in Syria. He's known to many on the Internet simply as "The Scientist," which is also his profession.
The refugee's family was scheduled to arrive in Troy, a Detroit suburb, Thursday. He and four surviving children spent the last two years in Instanbul, Turkey. They fled civil-war-torn Syria after the man's wife and one of his daughters were killed in a missile attack on April 6, 2013.
His is one of 12 families featured by Humans of New York and cleared to resettle in the U.S.
"I learned today that I'm going to Troy, Michigan," the man told Humans of New York. "I know nothing about it. I just hope that it's safe and that it's a place where they respect science. I just want to get back to work. I want to be a person again. I don't want the world to think I'm over. I'm still here."
The story made rounds throughout the Internet and even garnered a response from President Barack Obama's official Facebook page:
As a husband and a father, I cannot even begin to imagine the loss you've endured. You and your family are an inspiration. I know that the great people of Michigan will embrace you with the compassion and support you deserve. Yes, you can still make a difference in the world, and we're proud that you'll pursue your dreams here. Welcome to your new home. You're part of what makes America great.
,Norton, known for his roles in movies like "Fight Club" and "Birdman," wrote in the description of his online fundraiser:

Posted by Humans of New York on Tuesday, December 8, 2015 ||||| ISTANBUL — The grieving refugee who touched hearts as "The Scientist" on the Humans of New York blog only mustered a brief smile when told that a Hollywood star had helped raise $450,000 for him.
Hours before flying to Michigan to start a new life in the U.S. on Thursday, the cancer-stricken Syrian civil engineer glanced down.
"I didn't hear about it, but I want to thank him very much from the humanity perspective," he said after NBC News revealed the crowdfunding appeal. Oscar-nominated actor Edward Norton was moved to tears after reading the refugee's biography on the photography site last week and launched the fundraiser.
"There are people outside who need that money much more than me," The Scientist said, displaying the sort of compassion and humility that helped his story go viral.
The Scientist, who asked NBC News to refer to him as "Abu Ammar" to protect family in Syria, said his life was shattered by a bomb that killed his wife and daughter just under three years ago.
He was later diagnosed with stomach cancer, and has had to care for five remaining children.
They include a teenage son, who is still reeling after watching his mother die, and a daughter who carries inside of her shrapnel from the attack on April 6, 2013.
"When a bomb drops you don't know where it comes from," he said. "There is no question our lives changed after that ... 180 degrees. I am mentally tired, in overwhelming sadness."
“ As long as there are good people in the world … then we can stop this bloodshed”
On Thursday, Abu Ammar and four of his children flew to Troy, Michigan, as part of a United Nations refugee resettlement program.
For about two years, the family had been living close to destitution in Turkey. But the drive to succeed still lingers, Abu Ammar said.
"I've had ambitions since I was a child, and right now I'm still that same child with the same ambitions," he said. "But I still have a message — sometimes when I'm talking to myself I say, 'No, I'm not supposed to die. I need to live long enough to realize my message to humanity.'"
Abu Ammar's story on Humans of New York, a popular blog started in 2010 that spawned a bestselling book, prompted an outpouring of compassion. Even President Barack Obama contributed, calling Abu Ammar and his family an "inspirations" on HONY's Facebook page.
"Yes, you can still make a difference in the world, and we're proud that you'll pursue your dreams here." Obama wrote. "Welcome to your new home. You're part of what makes America great."
Last night President @BarackObama wrote a very sweet welcome note to the scientist in Tuesday's story. pic.twitter.com/ZGrn3gOdR7 — Brandon Stanton (@humansofny) December 10, 2015
Norton, who starred in "Birdman," "Fight Club" and "American History X," set out to help pay The Scientist's medical expenses.
"This man has suffered profound loss that would crush the spirit of many people and yet he still passionately wants a chance to contribute positively to the world," Norton wrote.
The resettlement of Syrian and Muslim refugees in the United States is controversial, especially in the aftermath of attacks by Islamic extremists in Paris and San Bernardino. Some politicians — notably GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump — have called for a ban on Muslims entering the country.
Abu Ammar told NBC News he didn't know anything about the debate over Muslims and immigration raging in the U.S. He also didn't have a solution to the war raging in his home country.
"I don't like to get into politics because I am a man of science, and I can separate science and politics completely," he said. "But as long as there are good people in the world, and everyone looks into his or her conscience, then we can stop this bloodshed."
Abu Ammar added: "No one benefits from people dying, and wars overall never benefit anybody — so let's hope God can help everyone and put out this fire." |||||
Output: A Syrian refugee whose moving story went viral earlier this month starts his new life in Troy, Michigan, on Thursday, NBC News reports. The refugee—who wants to keep his real name out of the media to protect family members still in Syria—is known as "The Scientist" on the blog Humans of New York, where he was first profiled. "I learned today that I’m going to Troy, Michigan," The Scientist told HONY. "I know nothing about it. I just hope that it’s safe and that it’s a place where they respect science." According to MLive, The Scientist left Syria in 2013 after a bomb killed his wife and one of his daughters. Since then, he's been diagnosed with stomach cancer and was barely scraping by in Turkey. Despite being "in overwhelming sadness," he and his surviving children are hoping for a new start in the US, he tells NBC. Thanks to his story—which even got the attention of President Obama—The Scientist will have some help to get that new start. NBC reports actor Edward Norton was moved to tears after reading The Scientist's story and started a crowdfunding page that has raised nearly $450,000. "I didn't hear about it, but I want to thank him very much from the humanity perspective," The Scientist says. "There are people outside who need that money much more than me." A Michigan college student was also inspired to help after hearing The Scientist would be moving to his hometown, according to USA Today. His fundraising page has raised more than $16,000. "I’d say out of all the cities in Michigan, Troy is the best place to raise a family, be a scientist, and we can’t wait to have him," Daniel Kang says.

Output: | Don't start placing bets on who will play next year's halftime show: There may not even be one. The next Super Bowl, set for New Jersey's Meadowlands stadium, will mark the first time the big game will be open to potentially frigid temps—and it may be too cold for a performance, according to the New York Post. "It’s not only the acts and the singers, but (also) the crews that have to put the stage together," a planning source explains to the paper. The whole performance is supposed to move quickly, and "you just can’t assemble the stage and break it down fast enough in the cold," the source says. And "there's no plan right now of what to do in its place." It's not just the halftime show that's a problem, insiders say. "There are a thousand things we didn’t think about," notes one. "The NFL is freaking out ... because they’ve never done a cold-weather Super Bowl," adds another. Everything from transportation to postponement policies could cause trouble.

Problem: (CNN) -- Cuba will pardon more than 2,900 prisoners, the government said Friday, though U.S. subcontractor Alan Gross is not among those who will be freed. The decision to release the prisoners follows "numerous requests" from their family members and religious institutions, and is a humanitarian gesture, said Cuban President Raul Castro. Among those who might be freed are prisoners over the age of 60, along with those who are sick, female or young with no previous criminal record. With some exceptions, prisoners convicted of spying, terrorism, murder and drug trafficking will not be released. Those who will be freed have already served a "important" part of their sentences and exhibited good behavior, according to an official statement published on the state-run website Cubadebate. The jailed American, Gross, will not be among those pardoned, the Cuban Interests Section in Washington said. Gross was jailed in December 2009, when he was working as a subcontractor on a U.S. Agency for International Development project aimed at spreading democracy. Castro has accused him of importing satellite equipment to connect dissidents to the Internet, and this year Cuba's highest court upheld the 15-year sentence imposed on Gross for committing crimes against the security of the state. He has maintained his innocence and said he was trying to help connect the Jewish community to the Internet. Castro, speaking to the National Assembly, said that 86 prisoners from 25 countries would be among those released in coming days. He cited the upcoming visit of Pope Benedict XVI as one of the motivations behind the move, which he said showed the "generosity and strength of the revolution." The pope has said he plans to visit Mexico and Cuba before Easter.

Question:
The center of an atom is held together by powerful forces. This gives them a huge amount of stored energy. This type of energy is called nuclear energy. This energy can be released and used to do work. This happens in nuclear power plants where they split apart the nucleus of an atom. This splitting apart is called nuclear fission. Another type of nuclear energy happens in the Sun. Here the atoms nuclei are not split apart. Instead, the nuclei of the atoms are fused, or joined together. This process is called nuclear fusion. Some of the suns energy travels to Earth. This energy from nuclear fusion warms the planet and provides the energy for photosynthesis. After reading the above, is "kenetic energy" the correct answer to the question "What type of stored energy do atoms have?"? OPTIONS:

Input: My father was named James Page Jackson because he was born on the old Jackson plantation in Lancaster county, Virginia. He named one of his daughters Lancaster for a middle name in memory of his old home. Clarice Lancaster Jackson was her full name. A man named Galloway bought my father and brought him to Arkansas. Some called him by the name of Galloway, but my father always had all his children keep the name Jackson. There were fourteen of us, but only ten lived to grow up. He belonged to Mr. Galloway at the time of my birth, but even at that, I did not take the name Galloway as it would seem like I should. My father was a good carpenter; he was a fine cook, too; learned that back in Virginia. I'll tell you something interesting. The first cook stove ever brought to this town was one my father had his master to bring. He was cook at the Anthony House. You know about that, don't you? It was the first real fine hotel in Little Rock. When father went there to be head cook, all they had to cook on was big fireplaces and the big old Dutch ovens. Father just kept on telling about the stoves they had in Virginia, and at last they sent and got him one; it had to come by boat and took a long time. My father was proud that he was the one who set the first table ever spread in the Anthony House.

Input: ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- On a plot of soil, nestled against the backdrop of skyscrapers in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, a group of residents are turning a lack of access to fresh produce into a revival of old traditions and self-empowerment. Urban farming is a way for African-Americans to connect with the earth, says Cashawn Myers of HABESHA. HABESHA Gardens is one of many urban gardens sprouting up around the country. Fruits and vegetables are thriving in this community garden located in an economically depressed area of the city known as Mechanicsville. But the garden serves an even greater purpose. The harvest helps feed some of the neediest members of the neighborhood. "It's a reawakening going on. It's almost like it's a renaissance," says Cashawn Myers, director of HABESHA Inc. "There's a Ghanaian proverb that says Sankofa. Sankofa means return to your past so you can move forward. Even if you look at coming over here during our enslavement, we were brought here to cultivate the land because that's something we did on the continent. So really, that's what many of the people are doing now," he said. Myers believes urban farming is a way for many African-Americans to reconnect with their past. iReport.com: Show us your urban farm "They are going through a process of Sankofa and going to what they traditionally did, which is connect to the Earth so they can move forward and grow," he says.

But these butchers up the cavern had been surprised, they were probably scared, and they had no special weapons, only those little hatchets of theirs. And that way lay escape. Their sturdy little forms--ever so much shorter and thicker than the mooncalf herds--were scattered up the slope in a way that was eloquent of indecision. I had the moral advantage of a mad bull in a street. But for all that, there seemed a tremendous crowd of them. Very probably there was. Those Selenites down the cleft had certainly some infernally long spears. It might be they had other surprises for us.... But, confound it! if we charged up the cave we should let them up behind us, and if we didn't those little brutes up the cave would probably get reinforced. Heaven alone knew what tremendous engines of warfare--guns, bombs, terrestrial torpedoes--this unknown world below our feet, this vaster world of which we had only pricked the outer cuticle, might not presently send up to our destruction. It became clear the only thing to do was to charge! It became clearer as the legs of a number of fresh Selenites appeared running down the cavern towards us.

Input: Even after Bin Laden's departure from the area, CIA officers hoped he might return, seeing the camp as a magnet that could draw him for as long as it was still set up. The military maintained readiness for another strike opportunity. On March 7, 1999, Clarke called a UAE official to express his concerns about possible associations between Emirati officials and Bin Laden. Clarke later wrote in a memorandum of this conversation that the call had been approved at an interagency meeting and cleared with the CIA. When the former Bin Laden unit chief found out about Clarke's call, he questioned CIA officials, who denied having given such a clearance. Imagery confirmed that less than a week after Clarke's phone call the camp was hurriedly dismantled, and the site was deserted. CIA officers, including Deputy Director for Operations Pavitt, were irate." Mike" thought the dismantling of the camp erased a possible site for targeting Bin Laden. The United Arab Emirates was becoming both a valued counterterrorism ally of the United States and a persistent counterterrorism problem. From 1999 through early 2001, the United States, and President Clinton personally, pressed the UAE, one of the Taliban's only travel and financial outlets to the outside world, to break off its ties and enforce sanctions, especially those relating to flights to and from Afghanistan. These efforts achieved little before 9/11. In July 1999, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Hamdan bin Zayid threatened to break relations with the Taliban over Bin Laden. The Taliban did not take him seriously, however. Bin Zayid later told an American diplomat that the UAE valued its relations with the Taliban because the Afghan radicals offered a counterbalance to "Iranian dangers" in the region, but he also noted that the UAE did not want to upset the United States. <sep>When and why did the UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Hamdan bin Zayid threaten to break relations with the Taliban over Bin Laden?<sep>In July 1999

Q: A 29-year-old Army veteran allegedly killed his mother and rode a tractor through his Simi Valley neighborhood, firing rounds, before police killed him Saturday. Detectives on Sunday were piecing together details about the incident. Jane Yamamoto reports from Simi Valley for NBC4 News at 11 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013. (Published Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013)
A man fatally shot by police after he possibly killed his mother and rode through a neighborhood firing a gun from a tractor was identified on Sunday as a veteran of the U.S. Army.
Ryan Carnan, 29, (pictured) was fatally shot by Simi Valley police officers on Saturday afternoon, officials said.
Wild Standoff Ends with Gunman Dead
Police in Simi Valley are now investigating the background of a man killed by officers after a wild standoff. Detectives believe the man killed his mother, then opened fire on others in her neighborhood while fleeing on a tractor. Jane Yamamoto reports for the NBC4 News at 8 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013. (Published Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013)
The events prompted a bomb-squad callout and the evacuation of homes in the Bridal Path neighborhood of Simi Valley, 30 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles.
It started with a call to police from the suspect's brother about the killing of their mother, a house fire, the discovery of a woman's body inside the home and calls from residents reporting a man driving through on a tractor firing a gun.

Southern California Police Standoffs
An autopsy was scheduled to be performed on the victim Monday.
Police shot the suspect when "the officers were confronted with a deadly force situation," the Simi Valley Police Department said in a press release.
"Based on the information that was being received by the 911 callers that a subject was actively shooting a firearm in a residential neighborhood, the heroic actions of the officers involved cannot be understated," the press release said.
Residences in the area were evacuated as a precaution as a bomb squad checked the home after the fire was put out.
The officers are home on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of parallel probes into the shooting by the Simi Valley Police Department and the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office.

Grief counselors were expected Monday to arrive at a Southern California high school to help students and staff cope with the death of an employee who was killed allegedly by her son who was fatally shot by police.
Mourners placed flowers outside Santa Susana High School for Sally Carnan, who worked in the attendance office at the Ventura County school.
"We loved her. Everyone loved her," said Cassie Sadowsky, a former student, of the 67-year-old woman affectionately known as "The Attendance Lady."
Carnan's son, Ryan, allegedly killed his mother, set their house on fire, then fired at neighbors and police from a tractor before he was fatally shot by officers on Saturday, authorities said. His mother's body was found inside the home, police said.
Autopsies to reveal details about the deaths were set for Monday.
Carnan, 29, (pictured) had no criminal record with Simi Valley police, officials said. But police were called to the house at least five times, the most recent in 2008.
"Those were mental-health related calls," said Cmdr. Stephanie Shannon, of the Simi Valley Police Department.
A family friend said Ryan Carnan was discharged from the U.S. Army five years ago, around the same time his father died of cancer. Results from an request with the military were not immediately available.
"They 're kinda overcome with everything that's happened," said Brandon Lyman, the family friend.
The incident Saturday started with a call from Ryan Carnan's brother to police, saying Ryan Carnan brother shot their mother, police said.
The call prompted a call to the fire department and a bomb-squad, fearing incendiary devices and the evacuation of homes in the Bridal Path neighborhood of Simi Valley, 30 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. Ryan Carnan lived with his mother at a home nearby on Mellow Lane.
He reportedly aimed the gun at residents and police from a tractor, officials said.
Police shot Ryan Carnan when they said they were confronted with a "dangerous and deadly situation."
The officers are home on paid administrative leave pending the outcome of parallel probes into the shooting by the Simi Valley Police Department and the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office.

A: | A 29-year-old Army veteran allegedly murdered his mother, set her house on fire, and then fired at residents in Simi Valley, Calif., while driving a tractor before being shot dead by police Saturday, NBC Los Angeles reports. Police were alerted to the situation by Ryan Carnan's brother, who reported their mother had been killed, and by neighborhood residents who spotted a shooter atop a tractor. ABC 7 reports that Carnan allegedly shot at a bicyclist as well as others; police say they shot Carnan after he opened fire on them. Carnan's brother told authorities his brother confessed to shooting and killing their mother, whose body was found inside the burning home, though her cause of death has not been officially verified. No one else was injured. Police aren't sure of Carnan's motive or what led up to the shootings. He had been stationed in Korea at some point, and police had been called to the family home three times over concerns about his mental health, though the last of those calls reportedly occurred five years ago. NBC Los Angeles notes that Sally Carnan was a beloved employee of Santa Susana High School, where she was known as the "Attendance Lady." |

Problem: 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 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: Quick Answer. A cube has six faces, 12 edges and eight vertices. Each face of a cube is an identical square, and every edge has an identical length, which is equal to the length of the sides of the faces. Continue Reading. A cube has 6 faces (all square faces), 8 vertices and 12 edges. A cube has 6 faces, 8 vertices, and 12 edges. A cube is a solid with 4 faces on the sides, one on the top and bottom, so 6 all together. 12 edges, 6 faces, 8 vertices. edges=12 vertices=8 faces=6. 8 vertices,12 edges,and 6 faces. The cube have:. -- six (6) faces. A cube is a three dimensional shape that features all right angles and a height, width and depth that are all equal. 1 A cube has 6 square faces. 2 A cube has 8 points (vertices). 3 A cube has 12 edges. 4 Things that are shaped like a cube are often referred to as ‘cubic’. A cube has: 8 vertices (or corners)6 faces,12 edges Cube means a 3 dimensional figure. Its faces are in square shape. Cube has 6 square faces, attached by one edge of a …square with another edge of another square . Two types of cubes are there one is solid cube and other is hollow cube. Let's say, we have n-dimensional cube (I assume, that length of edge is 1, but it can be some a, where a∈R [1]). Here, corner of this cube looks like this: (x1,x2,…,xn). For every xi there are 2 possibilities: xi=0 or xi=1 (xi=a in general). So, this cube has 2n corners. How many corners does it have, how many edges? PRESENTER Well, corners we could describe, I suppose, as being the pointy bits on the shape. It's where two lines meet. Vertices, Edges and Faces. A vertex is a corner. An edge is a line segment that joins two vertices. A face is an individual surface. Let us look more closely at each of those: Vertices . A vertex (plural: vertices) is a point where two or more lines meet. It is a Corner. This tetrahedron has 4 vertices. A cube with side length 1 unit, called a “unit cube,” is said to have “one cubic unit” of volume, and can be used to measure volume. b. A solid figure which can be packed without gaps or overlaps using n unit cubes is said to. have a volume of n cubic units. 5.MD.4 Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in., cubic ft., and improvised. units. A Cube has: Edges are not corners it is the vertices which are corners. So there are 12 edges, 6 faces and 8 vertices (corners) 12 edges (Corners) 6 faces. 8 vertices. Vertices, Edges and Faces.

Question: 10 to 14 years old may not sound particularly old, especially for a fit and healthy dog, but there are a couple of factors that will automatically limit a Lab’s lifespan to some extent. The general rule of thumb is that smaller dogs live longer than their larger counterparts. In 2014, the UK breed survey reported an average lifespan for the Labrador Retriever of 12 years and 3 months, with some living up to 19 years of age. Labrador pups generally are not brought to the home before they are 8 weeks old. It is a healthy breed with relatively few major problems. The best age to bring your Labrador puppy home is at 8 weeks old. We would suggest 7 weeks as the absolute minimum age and no reputable breeder would normally allow you to bring your new puppy home any earlier. Today’s Labrador Retriever is as good-natured and hard working as his ancestors, and he’s America’s most popular breed. These days the Lab works as a retriever for hunters, assistance dog to the handicapped, show competitor, and search and rescue dog, among other canine jobs. Giving you the best ways to keep your aging Labrador Retriever fit, comfortable and happy. If you are looking for information on how long Labradors live for, read our in-depth article on Labrador Life Span here. Is My Labrador Old? It may surprise you as it did me, to find out that the pet food companies classify a dog as young as seven years as ‘senior’. Labrador Retrievers as a breed have a life expectancy of around ten to twelve years. So it is a little sad to think that when they reach age seven, they are already considered to be entering the winter of their lives. Years of breeding between these immigrant dogs created, among others, the St Johns dog breed – a direct ascendant of the modern day Labrador Retriever. The first written record of ‘Labrador’ in reference to the breed was in 1887 in a letter penned by the British Earl of Malmesbury, although it’s thought they were associated with the term long before this. Labrador Retriever (12.6 years) – Stetson is a 5 year old black Labrador Retriever Golden Retriever (12.0 years) – Apache is a 1 year old Golden Retriever Cairn Terrier (13.2) – Ralphie is my parents 7 year old Cairn Terrier Mix Now we have a one year old Yorkie who had a rough few months with a liver shunt problem, but with surgery, she is completely well. We hope she lives well beyond her 12.8 year life expectancy! @Irene, WOW! 17 and 18 years old! I hope my guys live that long too and are in good health their entire lives. Labrador Retriever - a purebred, large dog from United States and Canada with a typical lifespan of 12 years, height of 24 inches, and weight of 73 pounds. The #1 AKC breed. See data on personality, health, cost of ownership, and more. Many people will tell you that the average life expectancy of a Labrador is ten to twelve years. But some Labradors live a good deal longer than twelve, and some unfortunately don’t make it to ten. So what controls how long your Labrador will live? Query: how long do labrador retrievers live in dog years
Answer: | The average lifespan for the Labrador Retriever is 12 years to 19 years of age.

Q: According to literary scholar Peter Anthony Niessa , the two important components of machismo are aggressive behaviour and hyper @-@ sexuality . Aggressive behaviour is exhibited by displays of power and strength , while hyper @-@ sexuality is revealed through sexual activity with as many partners as possible . These two components shape the portrayal of Trujillo and his regime in The Feast of the Goat . As Lorenzo observes , Vargas Llosa reveals traditions of machismo , of abusive fathers , and of child @-@ rearing practices that repeat the shaming of children , so that each generation bequeaths a withering of the soul to the subsequent one . In a display of both aspects of machismo , Trujillo demanded of his aides and cabinet that they provide him with sexual access to their wives and daughters . Mario Vargas Llosa wrote of Trujillo 's machismo and treatment of women , [ h ] e went to bed with his ministers ' wives , not only because he liked these ladies but because it was a way to test his ministers . He wanted to know if they were ready to accept this extreme humiliation . Mainly the ministers were prepared to play this grotesque role — and they remained loyal to Trujillo even after his death . Trujillo 's sexual conquests and public humiliations of his enemies also serve to affirm his political power and machismo . In Niessa 's words , The implication is that maximum virility equals political dominance . Trujillo 's attempted sexual conquest of Urania is an example of both political manipulation of Agustín Cabral and sexual power over young women . However , as Trujillo 's penis remains flaccid throughout the encounter and he is humiliated in front of the young girl , the encounter fails to satisfy his requirements for machismo . fill in the blank : According to literary __________________ Peter Anthony Niessa , the two important components of machismo are aggressive behaviour and hyper @-@ sexuality .

One example: For four years we have waited expectantly for the pitter patter of tiny paws. Soon, that wait could finally be over. 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

Now, solve this: Washington (CNN) The Trump administration will unveil a new plan Monday to roll back limits on a controversial program that provides local law enforcement agencies with surplus military gear, marking the end of a policy implemented during the Obama administration. President Barack Obama issued an executive order in 2015 prohibiting the transfer of a host of equipment, including armored vehicles, grenade launchers, high-caliber weapons and camouflage uniforms following controversy over the "militarization" of the police response to unrest in Ferguson, Missouri. "We've seen how militarized gear can sometimes give people a feeling like there's an occupying force as opposed to a force that's part of the community that's protecting them and serving them," Obama said at the time. "It can alienate and intimidate local residents and send the wrong message."Trump is expected to sign a new executive order Monday morningThe equipment includes armored vehicles, grenade launchers and high-caliber weapons

Input: FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — After just two days, Florida ended its controversial black bear hunt because a higher than expected number of bears had been killed.
Wildlife authorities said late Sunday that 295 bears taken overall, nearing the official limit.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission posted a statement on its website saying it had closed the 2015 hunt because it was approaching an agency "objective" of 320 bears overall.
"The 2015 bear hunt is officially over," the statement said.
Wildlife officials had already shut down hunting in designated central and east Panhandle regions of Florida after the first day Saturday. The statement late Sunday said additional North and South units were closed to hunting after the second day, meaning hunting had ended in all four "bear management units" were it was allowed.
Authorities say they weren't alarmed by the numbers, saying the figures suggest the bear population is higher than they thought. The hunt was approved earlier this year after considerable and contentious debate. Backers estimated Florida's black bear population had grown to 3,500 — from a few hundred in the 1970s. But opponents challenged those numbers.
More than 30 states allow bear hunting in some form, officials said.
Earlier Sunday, the agency's executive director, Nick Wiley, told The Associated Press the agency closely monitors the numbers of bears taken and was already leaning toward ending the hunt after two days.
The agency's subsequent statement late Sunday said the agency "took a conservative approach ... building in buffers so the number of bears harvested would stabilize growing populations while ensuring a continuation of healthy bear numbers."
Officials shut down the central and east Panhandle regions after the hunt's first day Saturday. They said 112 bears were killed in the Panhandle region at last count, nearly triple the 40 kill limit for that area. In the central region, 139 bears were killed, it said. The agency's statement added that 23 bears were taken in the North unit at last count and 21 bears in the South unit before those final two areas were closed Sunday to hunting.
"From a biological sustainable population perspective, none of these numbers are worrisome to us, we have large growing bear populations," said FWC's Thomas Eason, speaking Sunday before the overall hunt had ended.
More than 3,200 hunters purchased permits to participate, including 1970s rocker Ted Nugent and Liesa Priddy, a rancher and Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission member who voted to approve the new hunts.
Backers of the hunt said growing numbers of bears presented a safety problem, as close encounters with bears made headlines in recent months. Activists have argued that the state should instead focus through other means on curbing nuisance bears and assuring safety through trash management and other means. Opponents of the hunt staged protests around the state over the weekend.
Officials set up 33 stations where hunters were required to record each kill within 12 hours, with some of the last stations to remain open until noon Monday. Hunters were prohibited from using dogs or bait to lure the bears, and could only kill bears weighing more than 100 pounds, among other restrictions. Among the weapons allowed: shotguns, bows, pistols, revolvers and crossbows. ||||| Florida wildlife officials, who closed bear hunting in Central Florida after one day, shut the whole thing down Sunday.
“We started this with harvest objectives that were very conservative and very mindful that we were doing this for the first time in 21 years and there were uncertainties,” Nick Wiley, executive director of the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission, said at a Sunday afternoon press conference.
The hunt was scheduled for seven days, and FWC had allowed for 320 bears to be killed.
After two days, 295 were dead. Of these, 139 bears were killed by hunters in Central Florida, 112 in the eastern Panhandle, 23 in the northern region and 21 in the southern region.
The FWC put a stop to the hunt Sunday as the total reached the 320 limit and plans to use information gleaned from this year’s hunt for future management efforts, according to spokeswoman Tammy Sapp.
Bear hunting in Florida resumed again on Saturday, Oct. 24, 2015 after the state had prohibited it for years. State wildlife officials issued nearly 3,000 permits to hunters despite ongoing protests by some who say it is inhumane to shoot and kill bears.
Saturday, sharp-shooting hunters exceeded kill quotas in two of the four areas where hunting was allowed, including the Central region that includes Lake, Orange, Seminole and Volusia counties.
The kill limit for the region was set at 100.
“None of these numbers are worrying to us,” said Thomas Eason, a wildlife biologist nicknamed “Dr. Bear” who serves as director of FWC’s division of habitat and species conservation. “We have large, resilient, growing bear populations.”
But the death toll alarmed Chuck O’Neal, organizer of the Lake Mary-based conservation group Speak Up Wekiva, which sued FWC and pushed the wildlife agency to stop the hunt, or at least stop it early if the kill limits were met. FWC originally planned for the statewide hunt to last at least two days — regardless of the number of bears killed.
Bryan Smith of Lake County killed one of the first bears during Florida's bear hunt. Smith killed a male bear around 7:50 a.m. on Saturday. Bryan Smith of Lake County killed one of the first bears during Florida's bear hunt. Smith killed a male bear around 7:50 a.m. on Saturday. SEE MORE VIDEOS
Hunters could have killed 500 bears or more if Speak Up Wekiva hadn’t pressured FWC, O’Neal said.
“It saved the state from its disastrous [hunting] policy,” he said.
Diane Eggeman, FWC’s hunting director, admitted Sunday the wildlife agency had underestimated the rate of hunter success but pointed out the high harvest total also may suggest that the black bear population is larger than the current estimate of 3,500.
“The more bears you have, the more likely you are to succeed,” she said.
The Florida black bear was listed as a threatened species until three years ago.
Wildlife officials said they had no reported injuries to any of the 3,778 hunters who bought permits to kill a bear.
One hunter was cited for killing an underweight bear, a 42-pound cub in the eastern Panhandle, said Major Craig Duval, the head of FWC’s law-enforcement division. He said a hunter in Central Florida was warned because he brought in an 88-pound bear.
Bears weighing less than 100 pounds are presumed to be cubs.
Duval said FWC officers also are continuing investigations into instances of leaving bait to attract bears, which was not permitted under the state hunting rules. A hunter in Central Florida was cited for baiting, said Duval, who did not identify the hunter or provide other details.
FWC attributed the high bear kill to good weather, savvy hunters and unsuspecting bears.
“We have bears that haven’t been hunted in 21-plus years here in Florida so they’re relatively naive,” Eason said. “I also think we had a lot of hunters who went out and did a lot of scouting and were ready.”
As the bear population fell, Florida stopped hunting bruins in all but two counties in 1972. All bear hunting ended in 1994.
Wiley said he didn’t anticipate much criticism from hunters for calling off the hunt.
Florida hunters paid $100 for a permit, out-of-state hunters forked out $300. Total sales reached over $376,900, said Sapp.
“I think most of them will understand,” he said.
The bear hunt ended after Saturday in Central Florida and in the eastern Panhandle, where hunters bagged 112 bears — nearly three times the kill quota.
Those two regions by far had the most hunters, with Central Florida attracting an estimated 2,000.
At Rock Springs Run Wildlife Management Area, a hunting area that touches parts of Orange, Lake and Seminole counties, a group of about 30 people held a vigil Sunday across from a tag station where bear hunters brought kills to be checked.
“The real raw fact of the matter of losing these bears is devastating to many of us in the community,” said Emily Ruff of the Florida School of Holistic Living, who participated in the ceremony. “Our primary concern is to honor and pay respects to the wildlife that’s been lost in this hunt...I feel in large part the public feels betrayed by the state for allowing this to take place.”
Hunters on Sunday were allowed to pursue bears in two areas of the state — a northern region that included an area stretching from Suwannee County west of Interstate 75 to the Atlantic Ocean, and a southern region ranging from the west coast of Fort Myers in Lee County across Alligator Alley to West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale.
Volunteers with Speak Up Wekiva, who photographed bears brought into many of the 33 check-in stations, described several of the dead animals as “lactating females.” The state rules allow hunters to kill female bears, but forbid taking a bear with cubs.
The agency’s bear-hunting guide advised hunters to “observe a bear for a while before taking a shot so that you can confidently estimate its size...Taking your time also helps make sure that an adult female doesn’t have any cubs with her as cubs often don’t show themselves right away.”
Eason said bear cubs are generally born in February, emerge from the den in the early spring and, after eight months or so, “they’ve learned all the skills they need to be able to survived on their own...We knew there were going to be some [orphaned] in the harvest.”
Despite Eason’s assurances, O’Neal said his group was concerned about the hunt’s hidden toll: wounded bears that scrambled away to die; bears that were killed but not reported; and orphaned cubs that will starve or otherwise not survive alone.
“It’s worse than they think,” he said.

Output: | Hunters hoping to take advantage of Florida's weeklong bear hunt—the first in 21 years—have had to shoulder their rifles after just two days. "I have signed the order to close the hunt," Nick Wiley of the state's wildlife commission said Sunday after 295 bears were killed. The number is likely to rise as hunters have 12 hours to report their kills. Wiley said the max limit of 320 bears would likely be exceeded with another day of hunting, adding, "We'd rather err on the conservative side." Still, the number of dead bears did exceed limits in specific areas. Some 112 bears were killed in the eastern Panhandle in the first day of hunting, though the limit was set at 40. Hunters in Central Florida felled 39 more bears than the area's limit of 100. "The bears haven't been hunted in 21 years, so they're relatively naive," says the commission's bear expert. Wiley hailed the hunt as a success, but not everyone was pleased. Opponents warned that the loss of too many animals would be devastating to a population—estimated at 3,300—that was only recently scratched off Florida's imperiled-species list. A rep for the Sierra Club, which opposed the hunt, said the limitless hunting permits sold may have "set back the recovery of the bears for years, if not decades." The public was generally against the hunt: About 75% of the 40,000 responses received ahead of the commission's vote on the hunt this summer were against it. However, 3,779 hunters, including Ted Nugent, were eventually issued licenses, which earned the state $376,900, per the AP and Orlando Sentinel. Officials are now investigating possible hunting violations and say one hunter has been charged after shooting a cub. |

Q: This may give you better muscle control in your bladder or bowel. Surgery. In rare cases, you may need surgery to repair damage to muscles or nerves. Your healthcare provider will work with you to create a treatment plan. From there, urine travels out of the kidneys through the ureters to be stored in the bladder (a muscular sac in the lower abdomen). The bladder expands as it fills and can hold about 2 cups (half a liter) of urine at any given time (the average adult produces about 6 cups, or 1½ liters, of pee per day). The Heart and Kidney Connection. Your heart and kidneys are two important organs in your body. They work together to keep you healthy. When one is affected, the other is too. In other words, your heart can affect the health of your kidneys, and your kidneys can affect the health of your heart. Your heart and kidneys are two important organs in your body. They work together to keep you healthy. What Kidneys Do. Although the two kidneys work together on many vital functions, people can live a normal, healthy life with just one kidney. In fact, some people are born with just one of these bean-shaped organs. If one kidney is removed, the remaining one will enlarge within a few months to take over the role of filtering blood on its own. Urine is a fluid that contains: You produce between two and three pints of urine a day. The actual amount depends on how much you eat, drink and sweat, and whether you're taking medication such as diuretics (water tablets). Urine drains from your kidneys to your bladder through tubes called ureters. Your bladder. Your bladder is the hollow muscular organ that stores your urine. It's a bit like a floppy balloon – as your bladder fills, it expands to store the urine. On average, your bladder can hold 400 to 600ml of urine for up to about five hours. The muscle in your bladder wall is called the detrusor muscle. The detrusor muscle relaxes to allow your bladder to fill. When you go to the toilet, it contracts to squeeze out urine. Surprisingly when you remove the gall bladder, when multiple stones are there, digestion is not affecetd. Probably gall bladder was already functionless and so patient is used to it. Microscopic structure of Liver is fascinating. It is beyond the imagination, the three dimentional structure of liver. So you have a portal triad, contening branch of hepatic artery, portal vein and bile duct. In the center of 6 portal triads you have a central vein. There are valves that prevent urine from flowing back towards the kidneys. Urinary Bladder The urinary bladder is a sac-like hollow organ used for the storage of urine. The urinary bladder is located along the body’s midline at the inferior end of the pelvis. As the waste is added, the bladder fills with urine. Once it is full, the bladder empties all of the wastes. On its own, the digestive system’s main purpose is to digest food and provide nutrients for the body. The urinary system is responsible for removing liquid waste that the body does not need. A prolapse is the protrusion of a pelvic organ into the vagina: 1 the bladder can prolapse causing a bulge in the front wall of the vagina. 2 the bowel can prolapse causing a bulge in the back wall of the vagina. 3 the womb can prolapse into the vagina from above and can sometimes be visible at the entrance to the vagina. Your kidneys are powerful chemical factories and have the following jobs: 1 Clean your blood of waste products and extra water. 2 Help control blood pressure. 3 Keep bones healthy and strong. 4 Help make red blood cells. 5 Keep the balance of minerals in your blood (like sodium, phosphorous, and potassium) Query: how do the kidneys and bladder work together
A: | Urine travels out of the kidneys through the ureters to be stored in the bladder. |

CHAPTER IV: AN ARRANGEMENT
"That is serious," said Dick, more intellectually than he had spoken for a long time.
The truth was that Geoffrey knew nothing about his daughter's continued walks and meetings with Dick. When a hint that there were symptoms of an attachment between them had first reached Geoffrey's ears, he stated so emphatically that he must think the matter over before any such thing could be allowed that, rather unwisely on Dick's part, whatever it might have been on the lady's, the lovers were careful to be seen together no more in public; and Geoffrey, forgetting the report, did not think over the matter at all. So Mr. Shiner resumed his old position in Geoffrey's brain by mere flux of time. Even Shiner began to believe that Dick existed for Fancy no more,--though that remarkably easy-going man had taken no active steps on his own account as yet.
"And father has not only told Mr. Shiner that," continued Fancy, "but he has written me a letter, to say he should wish me to encourage Mr. Shiner, if 'twas convenient!"
"I must start off and see your father at once!" said Dick, taking two or three vehement steps to the south, recollecting that Mr. Day lived to the north, and coming back again.
"I think we had better see him together. Not tell him what you come for, or anything of the kind, until he likes you, and so win his brain through his heart, which is always the way to manage people. I mean in this way: I am going home on Saturday week to help them in the honey-taking. You might come there to me, have something to eat and drink, and let him guess what your coming signifies, without saying it in so many words."

(Question)
A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment. When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters' soccer games, they drive in high-tech style. They drive a $1 million, fuel-cell-powered car. It may be the world's most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars. The FCX is the first fuel-cell-powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world. The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel. Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment. They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline. And then what is fuel cell technology? Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water. This process produces electricity, and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe. Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming. "The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment," scientists say. Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s, but scientists have yet been to perfect it. They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use. Another earth-friendly car is already on the market. Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor. They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency. Which of the following about the FCX is not true? A) It may be the most expensive car in the world. B) It is one of the most environmentally friendly cars. C) It releases dangerous gases to pollute the air. D) It uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel other than gasoline.

Do you still remember your favorite poem from high school or some other important periods in your life?Why is it that decades later it still stands out in your mind?Probably the main reason is that some aspect of that poem resonates with you. In the same way, you too as a school leader can touch the hearts of your teachers and students. Poetry allows us to experience strong spiritual connections to things around us and to the past. The power that poetry has displayed over time and across cultures actually satisfies _ of the human heart and soul. As one of the oldest art forms, poetry has successfully connected various parts of humanity from one generation to another. Referring to poetry, Hillyer makes a simple yet meaningful statement, "With this key mankind unlocked his heart." School leaders can find and make use of the value of poetry for themselves, their students and their teachers. Beyond the simple use of poetry, techniques of poetry such as repetitions can be used to take advantage of the power of language to transform communication, create meaning and a culture of care and attention. Since schools are mainly about people and relationships, school leaders, like poets, are required to inspire and encourage the human heart. The use of poetry--or even of some techniques of poetry--in school leadership not only helps to improve communication, but also serves to meet the human need for inspiration. The use of poetry or techniques of poetry in school leadership is in fact to make use of _ . A) the power of language B) the power of school leaders C) people's preference for poetry D) people's desire for communication

It must have been around nine o'clock when I drove back home from work because it was already dark. As I came near to the gates I turned off the head lights of the car so as to prevent the beam from swinging through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me. But I needn't have done so. I noticed that his light was still on, so he was awake anyway--unless he had fallen asleep while reading. I put the car away and went up the steps. Then I opened the door quietly and went to Jack's room. He was in bed awake, but he didn't even turn towards me. "What's up, Jack?" I asked. "For God's sake, don't make a noise," he said. The way he spoke reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself serious injury. "Take your shoes off, Neville," Jack said. I thought that he must be ill and that I had better give way to him to keep him happy. "There is a snake here," he explained. "It's asleep between the sheets. I was lying on my back reading when I saw it.I knew that moving was _ . I could not have moved even I'd wanted to." I realized that he was serious. "I was depending on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home," Jack went on. "It has not bitten me yet but I dare not do anything to upset it. It might wake up. I'm sick of this," he said."I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago." There was no time to argue or apologize for being late.I looked at him as encouraging as I could and went to telephone the doctor. When he got home, Neville found that _ .
