Question: What was the other subject in the letter to the National Assembly? Context: In November 1790, François-Louis-Thibault de Menonville, a member of the National Assembly of France, wrote to Burke, praising Reflections and requesting more \"very refreshing mental food\" that he could publish. This Burke did in April 1791 when he published A Letter to a Member of the National Assembly. Burke called for external forces to reverse the revolution and included an attack on the late French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as being the subject of a personality cult that had developed in revolutionary France. Although Burke conceded that Rousseau sometimes showed \"a considerable insight into human nature\" he mostly was critical. Although he did not meet Rousseau on his visit to Britain in 1766–7 Burke was a friend of David Hume, with whom Rousseau had stayed. Burke said Rousseau \"entertained no principle either to influence of his heart, or to guide his understanding—but vanity\"—which he \"was possessed to a degree little short of madness\". He also cited Rousseau's Confessions as evidence that Rousseau had a life of \"obscure and vulgar vices\" that was not \"chequered, or spotted here and there, with virtues, or even distinguished by a single good action\". Burke contrasted Rousseau's theory of universal benevolence and his having sent his children to a foundling hospital: \"a lover of his kind, but a hater of his kindred\".\nAnswer:", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The other subject in the letter to the National Assembly was an attack on the late French philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau.

Prior to his release, he is interviewed by a local college newspaper reporter, to whom he recounts committing the murders with a Kaiser blade, saying, \"Some folks call it a sling blade. I call it a kaiser blade.\" Karl says he thought the man was raping his mother. When he discovered that his mother was a willing participant in the affair, he killed her also. Thanks to the doctor in charge of his institutionalization (James Hampton), Karl lands a job at a repair shop in the small town where he was born and raised. He befriends 12-year-old Frank Wheatley (Lucas Black) and shares some of the details of his past, including the killings. Frank reveals that his father was killed - hit by a train - leaving him and his mother on their own. He later admits that he lied, and that his father committed suicide. Frank introduces Karl to his mother, Linda (Natalie Canerday), as well as her gay friend, Vaughan Cunningham (John Ritter), the manager of the dollar store where she is employed. Despite Vaughan's concerns about Karl's history in the mental hospital, Linda allows him to move into her garage, which angers Linda's abusive alcoholic boyfriend, Doyle Hargraves (Dwight Yoakam). Karl bonds with Linda, who makes him biscuits to eat, and also with Vaughan, who tells Karl that a gay man and a mentally challenged man face similar obstacles of intolerance and ridicule in small-town America. Karl quickly becomes a father figure to Frank, who misses his father and despises Doyle. Karl is haunted by the task given to him by his parents when he was six or eight years old to dispose of his premature, unwanted, newborn brother.

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you accomplish this:\n\n1. Gathering the Necessary Equipment: The first step is to get all the tools you will need to measure your dog. This includes:\n\n - A tape measure: This should be a flexible one, which is often used in sewing or tailoring, so it can be easily wrapped around your dog's body.\n - A flat surface: For example, a wall or door can be used to measure your dog's height.\n - A notepad or your phone: To jot down the taken measurements.\n - A scale: to measure your dog's weight.\n\nThis step is crucial because having the right tools at hand will make the measurement process easier and more accurate.\n\n2. Measuring the Height: To measure your dog's height, have your dog stand against the flat surface. With your dog standing straight, measure from the ground to the top of your dog's shoulders (the withers), not to the top of the head because head movements can make the measurements inaccurate. This is a crucial measurement if you're getting things like doggy doors, crates, or if your dog competes in agility events.\n\n3. Measuring the Length: To find the length, measure from the base of your dog's tail to the front of his chest. Alternatively, for puppies that are still growing, measure from the base of the tail to the tip of the nose. This could be important for buying pet clothing or beds.\n\n4. Measuring the Chest Girth: Wrap the tape measure around the largest part of your dog's chest. This is usually right behind the front legs. This measurement helps in getting the right size of harnesses and clothing.\n\n5. Measuring the Neck Size: To get the neck size, simply wrap the tape measure around your dog's neck where a collar would comfortably sit. It's important not to tighten it too much. It should be snug, allowing for movement. This measurement is useful for choosing the correct size collar or protective cones.\n\n6. Weighing Your Dog: Lastly, it's important to know your dog's weight. For small dogs, it's often easiest to weigh yourself on a bathroom scale without the dog, then weigh yourself holding the dog, and subtract the first number from the second to get your dog's weight. For heavier dogs, you might need special dog scales or a trip to the veterinarian's office.\n\nEach step has to be taken carefully to avoid hurting the dog and to get the most accurate measurements possible. Now that you have all the measurements and weight, you can ensure you get the right equipment, clothing, and nutrition for your dog, among other things.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Egypt is a Mediterranean country bordered by the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast, the Gulf of Aqaba to the east, the Red Sea to the east and south, Sudan to the south, and Libya to the west. Across the Gulf of Aqaba lies Jordan, and across from the Sinai Peninsula lies Saudi Arabia, although Jordan and Saudi Arabia do not share a land border with Egypt. It is the world's only contiguous Afrasian nation. - The Nile ( \"en-Nl\",  \"an-Nl\" \"P(h)iaro\"; Ancient Egyptian: \"'p\" and \"Iteru\"; Biblical Hebrew: , \"Ha-Ye'or\") is a major north-flowing river in northeastern Africa. It is generally regarded as the longest river in the world, however other conflicting sources cite a 2007 study that gave the title to the Amazon River in South America. The Nile, which is 6,853 km (4,258 miles) long, is an \"international\" river as its water resources are shared by eleven countries, namely, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo-Kinshasa, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt. In particular, the Nile is the primary water source of Egypt and Sudan. - A civilization, or civilisation (see spelling differences), is any complex society characterized by urban development, social stratification, symbolic communication forms (typically, writing systems), and a perceived separation from and domination over the natural environment by a cultural elite. Civilizations are intimately associated with and often further defined by other socio-politico-economic characteristics, including centralization, the domestication of both humans and other organisms, specialization of labour, culturally ingrained ideologies of progress and supremacism, monumental architecture, taxation, societal dependence upon farming as an agricultural practice, and expansionism. - Geb was the Egyptian god of the Earth and later a member of the Ennead of Heliopolis. He had a snake around his head and was thus also considered the father of snakes. It was believed in ancient Egypt that Geb's laughter created earthquakes and that he allowed crops to grow. - Osiris (alternatively Ausir, Asiri or Ausar, among other spellings), was an Egyptian god, usually identified as the god of the afterlife, the underworld, and the dead, but more appropriately as the god of transition, resurrection, and regeneration. He was classically depicted as a green-skinned man with a pharaoh's beard, partially mummy-wrapped at the legs, wearing a distinctive crown with two large ostrich feathers at either side, and holding a symbolic crook and flail. Osiris was at times considered the oldest son of the earth god Geb, though other sources state his father is the sun-god Ra, and the sky goddess Nut, as well as being brother and husband of Isis, with Horus being considered his posthumously begotten son. He was also associated with the epithet Khenti-Amentiu, meaning \"Foremost of the Westerners\", a reference to his kingship in the land of the dead. As ruler of the dead, Osiris was also sometimes called \"king of the living\": ancient Egyptians considered the blessed dead \"the living ones\". - Menes (probably pronounced *; ) was a pharaoh of the Early Dynastic Period of ancient Egypt credited by classical tradition with having united Upper and Lower Egypt and as the founder of the First Dynasty. - Tefnut is a goddess of moisture, moist air, dew and rain in Ancient Egyptian religion. She is the sister and consort of the air god Shu and the mother of Geb and Nut. - Egyptian mythology is the collection of myths from ancient Egypt, which describe the actions of the Egyptian gods as a means of understanding the world. The beliefs that these myths express are an important part of ancient Egyptian religion. Myths appear frequently in Egyptian writings and art, particularly in short stories and in religious material such as hymns, ritual texts, funerary texts, and temple decoration. These sources rarely contain a complete account of a myth and often describe only brief fragments. - Upper and Lower Egypt also referred to as The Two Lands is a name used for Ancient Egypt. The concept appears in titles of Egyptian Kings and Queens and appears in scenes in temples and tombs. The concept also refers to an innate sense of duality in the Ancient Egyptian culture. - Isis (original Egyptian pronunciation more likely \"Aset\" or \"Iset\") is a goddess from the polytheistic pantheon of Egypt. She was first worshiped in ancient Egyptian religion, and later her worship spread throughout the Roman Empire and the greater Greco-Roman world. Isis is still widely worshiped by many pagans today in diverse religious contexts; including a number of distinct pagan religions, the modern Goddess movement, and interfaith organizations such as the Fellowship of Isis. - Nephthys or Nebthet was a goddess in ancient Egyptian religion. A member of the Great Ennead of Heliopolis in Egyptian mythology, she was a daughter of Nut and Geb. Nephthys was typically paired with her sister Isis in funerary rites because of their role as protectors of the mummy and the god Osiris and as the sister-wife of Set. - Ancient Egypt was a civilization of ancient Northeastern Africa, concentrated along the lower reaches of the Nile River in what is now the modern country of Egypt. It is one of six civilizations to arise independently. Egyptian civilization followed prehistoric Egypt and coalesced around 3150 BC (according to conventional Egyptian chronology) with the political unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the first pharaoh Narmer (commonly referred to as Menes). The history of ancient Egypt occurred in a series of stable kingdoms, separated by periods of relative instability known as Intermediate Periods: the Old Kingdom of the Early Bronze Age, the Middle Kingdom of the Middle Bronze Age and the New Kingdom of the Late Bronze Age. - The Ennead (meaning \"group of nine\") was a group of nine deities in Egyptian mythology. The Ennead were worshipped at Heliopolis and consisted of the god Atum, his children Shu and Tefnut, their children Geb and Nut and their children Osiris, Isis, Set, and Nephthys. - Lower Egypt (\"\") is the northernmost region of Egypt: the fertile Nile Delta, between Upper Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea from El Aiyat, south of modern-day Cairo, and Dahshur. - Narmer was an ancient Egyptian king of the Early Dynastic Period. Probably the successor to the Protodynastic kings Scorpion and/or Ka, some consider him the unifier of Egypt and founder of the First Dynasty, and in turn the first king of a unified Egypt. - Hu ( w ) , in ancient Egypt , was the deification of the first word , the word of creation , that Atum was said to have exclaimed upon ejaculating or , alternatively , his self - castration , in his masturbatory act of creating the Ennead . Hu is mentioned already in the Old Kingdom Pyramid texts ( PT 251 , PT 697 ) as companion of the deceased pharaoh . Together with Sia , he was depicted in the retinue of Thoth , with whom he was also occasionally identified . In the Middle Kingdom , all gods participated in Hu and Sia , and were associated with Ptah who created the universe by uttering the word of creation . Hu was depicted in human shape , as a falcon , or as a man with a ram 's head . In the New Kingdom , both Hu and Sia together with Heke , Irer and Sedjem were members of the fourteen creative powers of Amun - Ra . By the time of Ptolemaic Egypt , Hu had merged with Shu ( air ) . - The history of ancient Egypt spans the period from the early prehistoric settlements of the northern Nile valley to the Roman conquest, in 30 BC. The Pharaonic Period is dated from the 32nd century BC, when Upper and Lower Egypt were unified, until the country fell under Macedonian rule, in 332 BC. - Atum, sometimes rendered as Atem or Tem, is an important deity in Egyptian mythology. - The prehistory of Egypt spans the period from earliest human settlement to the beginning of the Early Dynastic Period of Egypt in c. 3100 BC, starting with the first Pharaoh Narmer (also known as Menes).

The height of stalls is an important aspect in ensuring this privacy.\n\nStep 3: Analyze the narrator's experience in the restroom\nThe narrator experiences a lack of privacy when using the restroom at school because the stalls are short, and people can see over them by simply standing next to them. This means that the narrator cannot use the facilities without potentially being in view of others, leading to a feeling of vulnerability and exposure.\n\nStep 4: Relate the restroom layout to the narrator's feeling of violation\nThe design of the restrooms, lacking in adequate privacy, leaves the narrator feeling violated. The lack of respecting personal boundaries within a space where privacy is generally expected leads to this uncomfortable experience.\n\nIn conclusion, the narrator feels a bit violated from a privacy standpoint at school because the restroom stalls have been poorly designed, leading to a lack of privacy and personal space.

Think like you are answering to a five year old.", "role": "system" }, { "content": "Article: Because the moral is the center of a fable, it’s often helpful to begin outlining your fable by determining the moral. The moral of a fable should relate to or reflect on a culturally pertinent issue that will resonate with many people. Some examples of famous fable morals to help inspire you include: \"Like will draw like.\" \"The greatest kindness will not bind the ungrateful.\" \"Advice prompted by selfishness should not be heeded.\" \"Fine feathers don't make fine birds.\" \"Strangers should avoid those who quarrel among themselves.\" For a complete listing of the morals of Aesop's Fables and links to the stories in which they appear, go here. The problem is what will drive the action of the fable, and it will be the primary source for the lesson to be learned. Because the nature of fable is to convey culturally-relevant lessons and ideas, the central problem works best when it’s something to which many people can relate. For example, in \"The Tortoise and the Hare,\" we are are quickly introduced to what will be the central problem or conflict of the story when two characters decide to hold a race. Determine who or what the characters in your fable will be and what traits will define them. Because fables are meant to be simple and concise, don’t aim for complex or multi-faceted characters. Rather, aim to have each character embody a single human trait and keep the characters within those specific limits. As the characters will be the primary vehicle for the fable’s moral, choose characters that will most clearly relate to that moral. In \"The Tortoise and the Hare\" the characters are, as the title indicates, a tortoise and a hare. Because a tortoise is easily associated with things that are slow-moving and the hare with things that are swift, the characters already have what will be their key traits in the story built-in. Though the kind of animal or object you choose for your character will have objective traits built-in, as above, you'll also need to craft the subjective qualities attached to those traits. In \"The Tortoise and the Hare,\" the tortoise's slowness is associated with level-headedness and persistence, while the hare's swiftness is associated with rashness and over-confidence. There are a number of classic archetypal characters used in fables that are broadly recognized and associated with particular human traits. Choosing two characters with opposing traits is often useful in setting up a clear conflict for the story. Some of the most common archetypes and their characteristics include: The lion: strength, pride The wolf: dishonesty, greed, rapaciousness The donkey: ignorance The fly: wisdom The fox: cleverness, trickiness, cunning The hawk: bossiness, absolutism The hen: conceitedness The lamb: innocence, shyness Where will the events of the story take place? As when choosing the moral and the problem, choose a setting that will be simple and recognizable to most people. The setting should also lend itself to the characters and their particular relationships. Try to make the setting simple but vivid--it should be a place readers can easily recognize and understand, which will save you having to explicitly lay out the details of the surroundings. For example, in the well known fable of the tortoise and the hare, the setting is simply a road through a forest, which sets the stage for the action (a race down the road) and lends itself to the kinds of characters in the story (woodland creatures). The resolution should be satisfying as well as relevant to the other components of the story, including the characters, their relationships, and the setting. Consider how the characters will resolve the conflict and how that resolution will support the lesson and moral to be taken from the story. For example, in \"The Tortoise and the Hare\" the resolution is simple--the hare, in his rashness, loses the race through the forest to the persevering tortoise.\nWhat is a summary of what this article is about?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "This article is about how to outline and create a fable.

It is situated approximately 2,400 kilometers northeast of New Zealand and is often referred to as 'The Rock of Polynesia.' The climate of Niue is tropical with a rainy season from November to April and a dry season from May to October. Cyclones are natural hazards in this region, mainly occurring during the rainy season.\n\nThere have been several instances of cyclones affecting Niue, causing damage to infrastructure, homes, and hotels. Some notable cyclones that have impacted Niue Island include:\n\n1. Cyclone Ofa in February 1990\n2. Cyclone Heta in January 2004\n3. Cyclone Wilma in January 2011\n4. Cyclone Tino in January 2020\n\nHowever, this information may not precisely pinpoint the specific cyclone and date on which the Niue Hotel was destroyed. To find exact information about the event, some possible methods are:\n\n1. Historical records and archives: Researching historical documents, newspaper articles, and reports from Niue Island or neighboring countries might hold information about the cyclone that destroyed the Niue Hotel and the date of the event.\n\n2. Government sources and disaster management organizations: Contacting reliable sources such as the government departments or disaster management organizations in Niue or nearby countries could provide information about cyclones that affected the island, including the date when the hotel was destroyed.\n\n3. Online articles and forums: Searching the internet for articles, online forums, or blogs about Niue's history or its cyclones might lead to information about the exact event.\n\n4. Academic research: Some academic researchers focus on the history, climate, and disasters of particular regions. Identifying and reaching out to such an expert in the South Pacific region could potentially yield information about the cyclone destruction date. \n\nOnce the specific cyclone and related details are identified, the elaborate answer to the question would include the cyclone's name, the date when the cyclone formed, and any additional details such as the cyclone strength or its consequences on Niue Island.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Upset\n\nKai is likely to feel upset for several reasons following the incident with Robin slamming the door behind him and locking it. Here is a detailed explanation of why Kai would feel this way:\n\n1. Suddenness of the action: The abruptness of Robin slamming the door and locking it can startle Kai and put him in a defensive state of mind. People generally do not react well to sudden, aggressive actions, especially when they are directed towards them.\n\n2. Lack of communication: People often have a hard time processing events when there is no clear communication or explanation accompanying those events. If Robin did not give any reason for their actions, Kai might feel confused and frustrated.\n\n3. Feeling of rejection: The act of slamming the door and locking it can be perceived as a strong sign of disapproval or dismissal. This can lead to feelings of rejection or unworthiness for Kai, as he might interpret this behavior as a way to distance himself from Robin.\n\n4. Aggressive behavior: Slamming a door and locking it could signal anger or hostility from Robin. This might further trigger feelings of unease, anxiety, or even fear in Kai, depending on the nature of their relationship and past experiences.\n\n5. Disruption in the relationship: Whether Kai and Robin are friends, family members, or romantic partners, this type of behavior can drive a wedge between them. It is a sign that there is some unresolved conflict or deep-seated issue affecting their connection. This disruption can create feelings of uncertainty, insecurity, and sadness in Kai.\n\n6. Loss of control: Being locked out without any warning or understanding can make Kai feel helpless and victimized. This loss of control can be emotionally challenging to navigate, potentially leading to a cascade of negative emotions.\n\nIn conclusion, Kai would most likely feel upset because of Robin's actions: slamming the door and locking it behind him. This response is rooted in the suddenness and lack of communication, leading to feelings of rejection, exposure to aggressive behavior, disruption in their relationship, and a loss of control. These aspects all contribute to a complex emotional response that encapsulates the underlying reasons why Kai would not feel happy or loved after this experience.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Modernizing educational infrastructure: This would involve upgrading schools, colleges, and universities to ensure that they have access to the latest technologies and resources. This includes improving access to digital tools for both teachers and students, providing adequate training and continuous professional development.\n\n2.

Curriculum reform: It is vital to revise the existing educational programs to ensure they align with the current and future demands of our society and the labor market. This involves incorporating subjects such as digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and environmental sustainability, which are crucial for our future success.\n\n4. Developing a culture of lifelong learning: Encouraging and supporting the pursuit of lifelong learning beyond formal education can help individuals adapt to the ever-changing demands of the job market, facilitating their reintegration into the workforce and promoting their growth on a personal and professional level.\n\n5. Enhancing collaboration between educational institutions and businesses: Establishing strong connections and partnerships between schools, colleges, universities, and businesses can help create valuable synergies. This collaboration paves the way for internships, mentorship programs, and professional opportunities, providing students with real-world experiences to complement their theoretical grounding.\n\nIn conclusion, it is essential that we recognize the importance of education in shaping our society's future and generating sustainable growth. The unmentioned aspect in my preliminary report and the speeches of my colleagues should be a focal point in our discussions moving forward. By investing in and prioritizing education, we are not only preparing our citizens for the challenges of an ever-changing world but also ensuring our success and prosperity as a society.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Big Star was an American rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1971 by Alex Chilton, Chris Bell, Jody Stephens, and Andy Hummel. The group broke up in early 1975, and reorganized with a new lineup 18 years later following a reunion concert at the University of Missouri. In its first era, the band's musical style drew on the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Byrds. Big Star produced a style that foreshadowed the alternative rock of the 1980s and 1990s. Before it broke up, Big Star created a \"seminal body of work that never stopped inspiring succeeding generations,\" in the words of Rolling Stone, as the \"quintessential American power pop band,\" and \"one of the most mythic and influential cult acts in all of rock & roll\".Big Star's first album—1972's #1 Record—was met by enthusiastic reviews, but ineffective marketing by Stax Records, and limited distribution stunted its commercial success. Frustration took its toll on band relations: Bell left not long after the first record's commercial progress stalled, and Hummel left to finish his college education after a second album, Radio City, was completed in December 1973. Like #1 Record, Radio City received excellent reviews, but label issues again thwarted sales—Columbia Records, which had assumed control of the Stax catalog, likewise effectively vetoed its distribution. After a third album, recorded in the fall of 1974, was deemed commercially unviable and shelved before receiving a title, the band broke up late in 1974. Four years later, the first two Big Star LPs were released together in the UK as a double album. The band's third album was finally issued soon afterward; titled Third/Sister Lovers, it found limited commercial success, but has since become a cult classic. Shortly thereafter, Chris Bell was killed in a car accident at the age of 27.

He was also called Abu Muhammad and Ibn al-Ridha. Because Samarra, the city where he lived, was a garrison town, he is generally known as al-Askari (Askar is the word for military in Arabic). Al-Askari married Narjis Khatun and was kept under house arrest or in prison for most of his life, until, according to some Shia sources, he was poisoned at the age of 28 on the orders of the Abbasid caliph Al-Mu'tamid and was buried in Samarra.\n\nHasan al-Askari was born during a period when his father Ali al-Hadi, the tenth Imam, was suspected of being involved in a conspiracy against the Caliph Al-Mutawakkil. There is doubt as to whether al-Askari was born in Medina or Samarra. According to authentic shia hadith he was born in Medina on the 8th of Rabiul Akhar 232 Hijri (4 December 846 AD) and died in Samarrah Iraq on the 8th of Rabiul Awwal 260 Hijri (4 January 874) aged 28. The period of his imamate was 6 years. He was taken along with his family to Samarra in the year 230, 231 or 232 A.H., and was kept there under house arrest. In Samarra, al-Askari spent most of his time reading the Quran and the Sharia. According to Donaldson, al-Askari must also have studied languages, for in later years it was known that he could speak Hindi with the pilgrims from India, Turkish with the Turks, and Persian with the Persians. According to Shia accounts, however, it is part of the divine knowledge given to all Imams to be able to speak all human languages. It is said that even as a child, al-Askari was endowed with divine knowledge. One day a man passed by him, and saw that he was crying. The man told him he would buy a toy that he might play with. \"No!\" said al-Askari, \"We have not been created for play.\" The man was amazed at this answer and said, \"Then, what for have we been created?\" \"For knowledge and worship.\" answered the child. The man said \"Where have you got this from?\" Al-Askari said, \"From the saying of God, Did you then think that We had created you in vain.\" The man was confused, so he said, \"What has happened to you while you are guiltless, little child?\" al-Askari said, \"Be away from me! I have seen my mother set fire to big pieces of firewood, but fire is not lit except with small pieces, and I fear that I shall be from the small pieces of the firewood of the Hell.\" Al-Askari's mother, as in the case of the majority of The Twelve Imams, was a slave girl who was honoured after bearing children with the title Umm walad (mother of offspring). Her given name was Hadith, though some say she was called Susan, Ghazala, Salil, or Haribta. Al-Askari had other brothers, and among them was Ja'far who was also known as Ja'far al-Zaki or Jaffar-us-Sani. His other brother was Husayn, and together he and al-Askari were known as \"as-Sibtayn\", after their two grandfathers Hasan and Husayn, who were also called as-Sibtayn.\n\nAnswer the following question by taking a quote from the article: Who is the slave girl?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The slave girl mentioned in the article is al-Askari's mother.

[ { "content": "You are a helpful assistant, who always provide explanation. Think like you are answering to a five year old.", "role": "system" }, { "content": "Write highlights for this article:\n\nEarlier this year, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, expressed support for raising taxes only on households earning $1 million or more, a higher threshold than the $250,000 dividing line backed by President Obama. Eventually, Schumer and Pelosi declared their support for the president's position. But the $1 million proposal might serve as the basis for a bipartisan agreement. A number of Republicans, led by Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tennessee, have called for raising tax revenue by capping deductions at $50,000, a proposal that would leave virtually all middle-income households untouched while substantially raising average tax rates on households in the top 2% of the income distribution. A deduction cap is expected to raise roughly $800 billion in revenue above current policy, which is only half of the $1.6 trillion the Obama administration hopes to raise from high-earners. It is, however, an amount that many congressional Republicans appear to have deemed acceptable. Politics: The road to fiscal cliff paved with good intentions. One of the central problems with a deduction cap, however, is that it is likely to be opposed by politically influential charitable organizations, which recognize that it will greatly undermine the incentive for high earners to make large charitable donations. Moreover, President Obama has insisted that tax rates on high earners will have to increase, though he has not made an explicit commitment to the Clinton-era statutory top rate of 39.6% (which compares to today's top rate of 35%). So, is there a way out of this impasse? Rep. Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, along with Reps. Tom Cole, R-Oklahoma, Bob Dold, R-Illinois, and Mary Bono Mack, R-California, have called on congressional Republicans to back legislation that would extend all the Bush-era tax cuts except for the high-income rate reductions, which would be allowed to expire. This remains a minority view among congressional Republicans, but it may well gain support in light of the popularity of allowing the high-income rate reductions to expire. Another possibility is that congressional Republicans will embrace the Schumer-Pelosi proposal. That is, rather than embrace expiration for the high-income rate reductions for households earning $250,000 or more, they would accept it for households earning $1 million or more. This would shield a large, politically influential constituency of affluent households, a disproportionately large share of whom live in high-cost metropolitan areas in blue states, while allowing Democrats and Republicans to take a politically popular stand. Opinion: A tax we could learn to love. To raise somewhat more revenue, this threshold could be set at $500,000 or $410,000, the latter of which would more precisely target the top 1% of households by annual income. Rather than set the tax rate for this new top bracket at 39.6%, Congress could set a rate of 36% or 37%, a face-saving gesture that would contribute to an appearance of moderation. Back in 2007, Alan Viard, a tax economist at the right-of-center American Enterprise Institute, offered a detailed explanation of why increasing taxes on high-income households alone is unlikely to raise enough revenue to reach ambitious deficit reduction goals. At the time, he estimated that raising $1 trillion in additional revenue relative to the Bush-era tax code from households earning $1 million or more ($500,000 for singles) would require raising the tax rate from 35% to 57%. If the goal of a millionaire's tax bracket is not to raise revenue in the most efficient manner but rather to make a political point, as seems at least somewhat plausible, it is easy to imagine it as the basis of a political compromise. The Obama administration is eager to secure more fiscal stimulus for the coming year in light of sluggish global economic growth. So a tax compromise that raises relatively little revenue is arguably desirable, at least in the short term, as it would help forestall an economic contraction. Homes, cars, jobs: Americans already making big decisions over fiscal cliff. If some small number of Republican senators from swing states are willing to cross the aisle to back a millionaire's tax bracket, President Obama will be able to claim he has a bipartisan consensus in favor of his broad approach to resolving the fiscal cliff. This in turn will make it very difficult for House Republicans to resist.

Many of his books were reprinted by the University of Chicago, the best known being Correction, Concrete, The Loser (which features a fictinoalized Glenn Gould), and Extinction. I reviewed Extinction and thought to include it in Bound to Please. Fact is, I thought it was in the book, but I must have left out that essay at the last minute because the book was already so long.\n\nBoston, Mass.: I've gone into a variety of new bookstores lately, and I've noticed something a bit peculiar. The stock of a good bookstore can seem fairly close to a mediocre bookstore, but something in the good store (layout, organization, displays, browsing happy customers) makes me want to move into the store and set up camp, exploring new books for the rest of my life. Yet if motivated, I could probably find many of the same books in the dull, mall- ish Barnes and Nobles down the street.\n\nMichael Dirda: Well, independent booksellers know that what they offer is a place that reflects their own tastes, not that of some corporate headquarters. They know their stock, read books themselves, and hand-sell favorites. This isn't to say that you don't find some of this in a Borders or B and N, but smaller places can offer you individual attention, make you feel as if your passion for books made you part of the literary scene in your town and not just a consumer plunking down cash for a best seller.\n\nJonesborough, Tenn.: Have you read the debut novel of Rufus Hill's called THAD DUVAL FROM ROBERTSON? I'm right excited about it. It's laid in the South in the early '60s (before the \"sexual revolution\" AND before the most active part of the civil rights movement in the South). It's essentially a love story. But early in the book it presents a moral dilemma of the protagonist (I won't call him a hero)if he shoud go to a brothel to \"become a man\" (things were kinda different 40 years ago!). And later there is the moral dilemma of whether the young lawyer protagonist should defend his family's cook's 16-year-old son in court, after the boy tries to integrate the town's high school ostensibly alone(which was courageous) but who is caught lying twice and even seems threatening to the young lawyer who has bailed him out of jail. One can get the book on Amazon.com or in your area, Mr. Dirda, at Politics and Prose in DC.\n\nMichael Dirda: Thank you for the recommendation. It does sound interesting, if only for its linking of the two kinds of revolution for which the 60s are known.\n\nPhiladelphia, Pa.: What is your opinion of John Fowles (particularly \"Daniel Martin\"). Is he still actively writing?\n\nMichael Dirda: I've not read Daniel Martin, but I do know it's a book that divided Fowles' admirers. Some found it flat and uninvolving after the excitements of The Magus and The Collector, for instance.\n\nFowles' journals were recently published in England and a biography appeared earlier this year. But the novelist suffered a stroke a few years back and his fiction writing days are apparently over. Indeed, it's possible he may have died without my knowing it. It's even possible that he may have died and I never saw the notice.\n\nApparently Fowles the private man was fairly disagreeable and exploitatitve of those around him. But isn't that the way of artists?\n\ntwin cities: New Michael Chabon or new John Irving? Any idea if author Geln Gold of Carter Beats the Devil has any plans for a new novel?\n\nMichael Dirda: Chabon. Don't know about a new Glen Gold. Poor guy, he must spend his time explaining that he's not the pianist. If you like books about magic, you might try the three or four Houdini detective novels by Dan Stashower. There's also an apepaling recent book on the history of the famous Indian Rope Trick. And of course you should check out Christopher Priest's wonderful The Prestige and the nonfiction albums of Ricky Jay.\n\nDirda Fan: Hi Michael, Just finished John Le Carre's THE CONSTANT GARDENER, which I very much enjoyed. Le Carre's still at the top of his craft and it's a fairly compelling read. I'm actually looking forward to seeing the film adaptation later this month as well. But what struck me about the book is the overarching timeliness of the subject: multinational pharmaceutical corporations running amok, bribing politicians, attacking or even killing whistleblowers, all the while letting new drugs be tested on people that clearly are dangerous to them due to the inadequancy of clinical trials. Throw in the AIDS situation in Africa and have you a highly volatile mix that makes me wonder if art is imitating life or vice versa. My question: can you think of any of other recent novels that so expertly definined a topical issue at the time of their publication that made the book resonate with readers? Many thanks.\n\nMichael Dirda: Hmm. There must be plenty, but I\"m drawing a blank---too much time lying on a blanket recently--so maybe others can offer suggestions.\n\nColorado Springs, Colo.: There's been a bit of buzz surrounding Paul Anderson's 12-years-in-the-writing, 1300 page debut novel. Have you read it? Should jaded readers assume any correlation between book and hype (a la Donna Tartt's first novel)?\n\nMichael Dirda: I've seen the book--it's the one about Sor Juana de la Cruz, right? (Sor Juana was a Mexican nun from very early in the European conquest of the Americas, who became a major poet, much admired by Carlos Fuentes among others). It could be great, but I couldn't face reading it. There was a time when I read and reviewed lots of meganovels--I admire the ambition that tries to embrace a nation or a time period in a single volume--and so wrote pieces on Harold Brodkey's Runaway Soul, Pychon's Mason and Dixon, Gass's The Tunnel, DeLillo's Underworld, and several others, most recently Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell and even The Historian. I've jsut read a longish fantasy novel by Paul Park too. So I can't advise you on this new Anderson book.\n\nMichael Dirda: By the way, folks, I'll need to relog on at 2:30, so don't go away when I temporarily stop typing to do so. I\"ve jsut been alerted that I have less than 10 minutes left for now.\n\nAnnapolis, Md.: Hello Michael and Fellow Bibliophiles,\n\nI've just discovered a new to me author that I just adore, Charles de Lint. I've finished his novels \"Someplace to be Flying\" and \"Trader\" and I am just in awe; provocative plots, fantastic writing, I could go on and on. I am also slowly savoring his short story collection \"Dreams Underfoot.\" I feel I need to pace myself or I'll run through his catalogue too fast and be feeling bereft too soon.\n\nI did also stumble on another book with a similar urban fantasy flavor, \"Child of a Rainless Year\" by Jane Lindskold. She's not quite as good as de Lint, but still several notches above most modern fiction.\n\nAny leads to other authors in this direction?\n\nMichael Dirda: I only know De Lint from his column in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, but he's been around for quite a while as contemporary practitioner of a kind of urban fantasy. YOu might enjoy Tim Powers or James Blaylock, though they do tend to set many of their books in the 19th century, but not all. In one Powers book the Tarot and Las Vegas are somehow melded. (Melded, quite tha apposite word, if I do say so for books about cards. Sigh--has it come to this, Dirda, that you've sunk to congratulating yourself on your diction? Pitiful.)\n\nWashington, DC: Hi there Michael. Do you have an opinion of author Mordecai Richler? I sometimes find his work quite humorous, any thoughts?\n\nMichael Dirda: Yes, he's very funny. Duddy Kravits, Solomon Gursky, St. Urbain's Horseman are all very fine novels about Jewish-Canaidan life.\n\nCasa de Oro, Calif: Michael, you have let us know about your musical favorites as well as the books. I am listening to my iTunes selections while I sit here today and I think about how my emotions can be manipulated with music, but not so much with reading. Do you find this to be true also?\n\nMichael Dirda: My computer time will be out in less than two minutes. So please stick around while I re-sign on.\n\nI'll stick my answer to the music question on to the next reply I send, along with that reply. If this is clear.\n\nMichael Dirda: Okay, I'm back.\n\nFavorite music? I have a little section on this in my forthcoming book from Holt, but in general I like a lot of classical music, especially the Mozart operas Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni, as well as Wagner's Tristan and lots of Puccini. That betrays my sentimental side, and so I also find myself growing weepy over 60s oldies, and lots of American songbook standards, especially those sung by Ella Fitzgerald, and not least I also like country and western heartbreakers, in particular songs like \"Maybe it was Memphis\" sung by Pam Tillis, George Strait's \"Nobody in his right mind would've left her\" and lots of Lorrie MOrgan and REba McEntire. I don't follow contemporary rock or hip-hop.\n\nBrooklyn, NY: Do you think there's a trend towards mega-novels? So many seem to be coming out, and I can't quite deal with it. There's no way to take a long walk in the park with a 1300-page novel.\n\nMichael Dirda: Oh, there's always been a place for the meganovel--think of Thomas Wolfe or John Dos Passos. Back in the Fifties we had Gaddis' The Recognitions and in the 60s John Barth wrote some famous essays about the literature of plenitude.\n\nJonesborougn,TN & Anderson, S.C.: TO THE DIRDA FAN ASKING FOR RESONATING TOPICAL NOVEL:\n\nRecently in \"STYLE\" in your newspaper, Mr. Dirda, the \"Washington Post\" there was an\n\narticle about a Brit whose novel about a\n\nsubway in London's being bombed was published on August 7th -- day of first\n\nterror bombing in London. But I can't remember his name or title of the book.\n\nMichael Dirda: Many thanks. This is similar to the scicnce fiction author who described the making of the atomic bomb just a few months befoe the U.S. finished making one.\n\nMount Desert Island, Maine: Last week, someone wrote in asking about books about the coast of Maine and mentioned The Secret Life of Lobsters, Trevor Corson's account of the lives of lobsters, lobstermen, and lobster scientists on Cranberry Island, just off Mount Desert Island.\n\nI work in a local bookstore on the Island and would also recommend Colin Woodard's Lobster Coast: Rebels, Rusticators, and the Struggle for a Forgotten Frontier and Philip Conkling's Lobsters Great and Small.\n\nAlso new this season is Geoffrey Wolff's The Edge of Maine and John Gillis' Islands of the Mind, which encompasses stories about nearby Gotts Island and those that Odysseus encountered; the book is a cultural history of the idea of islands.\n\nIn recent \"coast of Maine\" fiction, try Joe Coomer's Pocketful of Dreams and Beth Gutcheon's Leeway Cottage.\n\nThere's also a book of wonderful local history, Jock Herron's Summer Restoration: Rosie Dresser and The Cobbler's, the story of his aunt's restoration of a dilapidated house in the summer of 1947.\n\nIf that proves to be too many islands the reader could go upstairs (to Biography) and peruse Michael Dirda's An Open Book, or remain downstairs (in Collections and Essays) and look over Readings and Bound to Please.\n\nAnd if books prove too much the reader could pay homage to Marguerite Yourcenar by visiting her grave, just a few blocks away.\n\nMichael Dirda: Thank you for the guidance to recent books about Maine. The mention of Islands of the Mind makes my mind remember that John Fowles--whose name came up earlier today--wrote a long essay on Islands for a picture book about them.\n\nAlso, whatever happen to the Maine novelist Carolyn Chute?\n\nAnd I would be remiss if I didn't point out that Elizabeth Hand, the fine fantasy novelist, lives in Maine.\n\nSchoeneck, Pa.: RE: Mega Novels\n\nI've SEEN the network TV coming attractions for the fall.\n\nI've LOTS of use for mega novels.\n\nMichael Dirda: TV?! Here on vacation I've channel-surfed through the motel's cable offerings and discovered that you can have 72 channels and still nothing better to watch than a marathon offering of James Bond films. Of course, there aren't many things in life better than a James Bond marathon.\n\nMinnetonka, Minn.: Michael, What is your opinion of Book Art? We have The Minnesota Center for Book Art and I recently visited the Getty Center Library and viewed their exhibit. I don't get the art object but would pay anything for an English Hound with dust jacket.\n\nMichael Dirda: Would you settle for a German dachshund in lederhosen?\n\nGetting silly here, are we?\n\nI am of two minds about book art. I like pretty books, and I like illustrated books where the pictures are the sort that work for me. (I hate most of the Jane Austen illustrations that you used to see in things like the Heritage Press.) I've also studied bookbinding and have bound a couple of books, once commissioned a design binding (for a Nonesuch edition of Jeremy Taylor's Holy Living and Holy Dying), and my wedding invitation of lo these many years was done by Sheila Waters and her son Julian Waters. Sheila made the front of the invitation--caliigraphied interlocking initials--and Julian wrote out in his beautiful hand the actual details of when and where. (Sheila Waters was then widely regarded as the greatest living calligrapher; her son has been the White House calligrapher, anong other things. The, alas, late Peter Waters, husband and father, was one of the world's greatest bookbinders, having worked with Roger Powell on the rebinding of the Book of Kells and later overseen book conservation after the Florence Flood. Quite a family--the Arts and Crafts Movement in one household.)\n\nAnyway, I used to think of modern children's albums as our equivalent to the livre d'artiste and often approached them in this vein.\n\nSo I guess I do approve of Book Art.\n\nWashington, D.C.: Re: Bond - Are Kingsley Amis's critical works on 007 worth checking out?\n\nMichael Dirda: Yes, he was a great fan, knew the oeuvre well, and is always fun and provocative to read. I didn't like his Bond novel, Colonel Sun, all that much. I love the fact that Amis and Larkin both adored the locked room mysteries of John Dickson Carr, these Bond books, and Dick Francis thrillers. Of course their close friend at unviersity was the the terrifically funny and witty mystery novelist Edmund Crispin.\n\nGreat Falls, Va.: RE: Casa de Oro, Calif. saying that reading doesn't affect one's emotions, I strongly disagree. I can't tell you how many times I have gotten caught up in a book where it affected my mood! Two examples: as a young woman, Jane Eyre made me feel (and still does!) that I could do anything, while more recently, The Kite Runner left me feeling quite sad, and a little wiser to the ways of the world ... Just food for thought.\n\nMichael Dirda: Oh, books are terribly affection. I have a little chunk in my new book--sorry, two advertisements--about the perils of fiction. I just find reading novels, particularly sad one, like going through an emotional wringer. It takes me a long time to recover. Oscar Wilde said that he had never recovered from the death of Balzac's Lucien de Rubempre.\n\nCasa de Oro, Calif: Michaael, I had to respond to the fact that you like some country music. When I was a young kid I used to sit in front of the radio and cry over the country stuff. When my mom died recently, listening to Red River Valley allowed me to finally cry about it!\n\nMichael Dirda: Ah, Red River Valley--just about the only tune I can play on the harmonica. Of course, for many it is probably the only tune they've ever heard played on the harmonica.\n\nWashington, DC: Have you read Coleridge's Biographia Literaria (sp?). I love C's poetry and notebooks, and am thinking of dipping into this one. Thanks. Oh, and for anyone out there interested in the English Romantics, Richard Holmes's biography of Coleridge is amazing. I just finished it.\n\nMichael Dirda: Yes, I've read BL. The first half is fascinating, but the later sections grow more theoretical and philosophical and German philosophical at that. Some of the one volume selections from Coleridge's work contain long extracts and that's probably the way to approach the book.\n\nThe Holmes biography--in two voluems--is splendid, and very moving. Wordsworth comes across as a first-class louse, at least in later life. And till I read volume 2 I had no idea how much Coleridge suffered from his opium addiction. I somehow used to think it was just a kind of social drugging, not realizing how physically debilitating it was (ie. an inability to evacucate the bowels, requiring constant enemas.) Holmes Shelley biography The Pursuit is also very good, as are his collections of essays Footsteps and one other the title of which escapes me.\n\nLenexa, Kan.: I've just looked--\"Extinction\" is in a later (European) section of \"Bound to Please.\" I see you also cover Sebald who I do know and have read.\n\nI'm turned 65 today--been retired for ten years (pretty much read the ten years away). Thank you for the great help this forum has been (as was the earlier version of the Post's Book Club) to my furthering education. Hope you can keep it going for the next ten years. Best always.\n\nMichael Dirda: Happy Birthday! And many more to come. I hope we'll spend a few of them together, at least on line.\n\nBoston, Mass.: After The Great Gatsby, what F Scott Fitzgerald should one read? I've only read the classic.\n\nMichael Dirda: Tender is the Night. I actually like it more than Gatsby, though GG is pretty nigh perfect and TN has its flaws. Beyond that you might dip into the notebooks collected as The Crack Up.\n\nBrooklyn, NY: Michael, Any thoughts on Norman Cantor's biography of John of Gaunt? I loved Cantor's book on the Middle Ages, which I knew nothing about, and was excited to see this work, also on a subject about which I know nothing. But I admit to being put off by the amazon.com reviews, which claimed that it wasn't up to his usual standards.\n\nMichael Dirda: Cantor's Inventing the Middle Ages--about the modern historians who rediscovered or championed the Middle Ages--was wonderfully lively and gossippy, and as you know opinionated. Cantor writes fast, sometimes I think too fast, and he does tend to be a bit swasbuckling. This may account for the negative reviews. On the other hand, he is a knowledgable and passionate historian and fun to read.\n\nBel Air, Md: I am currently reading \"A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters\" by Julian Barnes. The book purports to be a novel, but each chapter is wholly unrelated to the next and there is no chronologic, geographic, or character similarities amongst the chapters. They share similar themes and will often allude to something in another chapter, but each chapter is a self-contained story.\n\nWouldn't this more accurately be a collection of short stories? Isn't the author just trying to be clever (and cheeky) by calling it a novel? While each story is a worthwhile read, trying to consider it a novel has left me not enjoying it as much as I might have.\n\nMichael Dirda: I reviewed the book and as I recall there are links and echoes among the stories that give the book a kind of unity. I suppose that one must expect a certain amount of heterogeneity in a history of the world. That said, Barnes is nothing if not clever in his early books--see Flaubert's Parrot--and so there is a show-offy element in them. But he's fun to read, no?\n\nKilpen House: A few chats back, you mentioned that when asked at a public gathering which literary character you'd like to be, you said \"Bond, James Bond.\" My response to you was I'd have chosen Travis McGee, but it got me to thinking that although I've read much detective fiction, I'd never read the Bond series so I started on that.\n\nI've only gone though about 5 books, but I have to say I'm surprised anyone would want to be Bond. At least the Bond of the books. I think they're great, very entertaining reads, but man, the guy gets his butt kicked a ton, he's beat up looking (scars on his face), he is very introspective and not always sure of himself, there are a lot of other issues but perhaps most of all, he doesn't always get the girl.\n\nAnyway, I'm enjoying them a bunch so no complaints here, I just had no idea how different the Bond books (both the Bond character and the plots) were from the movies. Moonraker? It's not a space base but an ballistic missile. The Spy Who Love Me? It is written from a woman's point of view, takes place in a mountain resort in Up-State NY, and only had Bond in about 1/2 of the chapters.\n\nI guess no real question, just can't get over my surprise in the difference between the books and movies.\n\nMichael Dirda: Yes, after the frist three Bond movies, the producers took liberaties galore and often merely used a book title as the springboard to a movie plot. The Bond of the novels is a much more hard-boiled character than the smooth urbane spy of the films. I like both avatars of the character. What I suppose I admire most about Bond is his omnicompetence and determination.\n\nArlington, Va.: What is your opinion of Reading Lolita in Tehran? I'm reading it, and at first I really liked it, but half way through I'm losing motivation to continue...\n\nMichael Dirda: Never had any interest in reading it. I like reading Lolita in Silver Spring.\n\nOklahoma City, Okla.: At the end of last week's chat you noted that you \"easily tire of fiction,\" and that you were working on a book section on the \"perils of fiction.\" That struck a chord with me: I, too, often turn from reading fiction to biographies or nonfiction, and I think I know why. Nonfiction is essentially journalism, which only asks us to absorb fact, while fiction simply demands more of a reader. We are expected to envision scenes and characters, discern motives, anticipate plot elements . . . a true interaction between writer and reader. A \"peril,\" perhaps, but also a mental stimulant, no?\n\nMichael Dirda: Yes. Plus there's the emotional commitment demanded by a serious novel.\n\nRockville, Md.: Posting early since I will be returning a child to college today. It was too late last week to respond to the one poster who was derogatory of Jim Dale and his reading of the Harry Potter books, even though he had never listened to them. I have been commuting between Rockville and northern Virginia for 9 years and books on tape have saved my sanity. I sometimes listen to two in one week. I have heard all the readers that that individual mentioned, but none of them have ever come close to Jim Dale's reading of Harry Potter. He is in a league, a class of his own. Listening to them, you can tell which of hundreds of characters is speaking from how Jim is reading it. I have no idea how he does it - pure talent. If you have never heard him, you really can have no idea how much better he is than everyone else. David Ogden Stiers' reading of Tom Wolfe's \"A Man in Full\" was closer than most but he still has a ways to go. I don't generally listen to mysteries, so there may be a reader or two who just focuses on that genre who might be better. But I doubt it.\n\nMichael Dirda: Thank you for this informed posting. As I've only read the first two Potters, it sounds--oh no, not another time, Dirda--as if I should listen to the Dale readings of the others.\n\nAnd with that, friends, it's time to bid you adieu before the library kicks me off this computer.\n\nAnd so, till next week, at Wednesday, keep reading! Oh yes, I'm sorry I didn't get to all the postings.

They soon run into trouble, first narrowly avoiding another motorist, then having a sudden scare as the bridge near the cabin begins to collapse as they cross. That night, while Cheryl is making a drawing of a clock, her hand becomes violently possessed by a mysterious entity, causing her to draw a picture that looks like a book with a deformed, evil face. She fails to mention the incident to the others, dismissing it as her imagination. When the trapdoor to the cellar mysteriously flies open during dinner, Ash and Scotty go down to investigate and find the Naturom Demonto, a Sumerian version of the Egyptian Book of the Dead, along with a tape recording of incantations in which, when played by Ash then Scotty, unleashes demons and evil spirits. Cheryl becomes hysterical when a tree crashes through the window, and she runs to her room. Later, she hears strange voices and goes outside to investigate. She is attacked and raped by demonically possessed trees, but manages to escape. The others do not believe her story, but Ash agrees to drive her to town where she can find a place to stay for the night. However, they find that the only bridge connecting the cabin to the rest of the world has been destroyed.

She then stabs Linda in the ankle with a pencil, and Scotty locks her in the cellar. Shelly is the next to become possessed; she attacks Scotty, who eventually dismembers her with an felling axe.

Context: WHITE HOUSE — President Donald Trump on Monday declared he has an \"absolute right\" to pardon himself and then also tweeted his assertion that the federal government investigation into ties between his 2016 election campaign and Russia is \"totally unconstitutional.\" While Trump has frequently ignored established norms and challenged the understood limits of presidential powers, his latest comments are viewed by some legal scholars as unprecedented and testing constitutional boundaries. \"I was shocked\" by Trump’s tweets, said Susan Low Bloch, a law professor at Georgetown University. \"No president has ever tried it,\" she told VOA News. \"It’s unlikely the president can pardon himself. I think the court would say no\" and if he did give himself a pardon, \"most congresses would impeach him.\" Bloch also notes when most people accept a pardon \"it’s an admission of guilt,\" thus it would be a bad idea for Trump to pursue such a course of action. The professor, who has testified before the Senate on whether a president can be indicted and tried while in office, says the special counsel is \"absolutely constitutional.\" Another constitutional scholar, Keith Whittington at Princeton University, said, \"I think it is important to note that the president’s comments reference serious arguments that are being debated by legal scholars, but these are difficult and unusual constitutional questions that would ultimately be answered in the courts.\" According to Northwestern University Law Professor Andrew Koppelman, \"Trump's position on pardons is consistent with the Constitution's text, but inconsistent with the overall structure. It means that the President could commit capital treason, or any other federal crime, and then immediately pardon himself. \"It means that he could commit murder in the White House,\" Koppelman said. \"It makes no sense within the Constitution as a whole.\" Asked by reporters Monday about Trump’s comment on his ability to pardon himself, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders repeatedly replied: \"The...

Here is a detailed and long negative review:\n\nTitle: Disappointing Experience at Tasty Terrace\n\nI recently dined at Tasty Terrace with my family, and I regret to say that we had an utterly disappointing experience. I had heard mixed reviews about this place from friends and online reviewers, but I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the food, service, and overall ambiance fell short of our expectations.\n\nTo begin with, we entered the restaurant with a warm welcome from the hostess, who seated us promptly despite being busy. However, this was the only positive aspect of our visit. It took our server approximately 10 minutes to acknowledge our presence and offer us water. We ordered our drinks and appetizers straight away, as we had enough time to review the menu while waiting.\n\nThe appetizers arrived well ahead of our drinks, making it difficult to enjoy them fully without something to sip on. Besides the poor timing, the appetizers themselves were lackluster. We had ordered the garlic bread and stuffed mushrooms, and unfortunately, the garlic bread was under-toasted and lacked any garlicky flavor, while the stuffed mushrooms were soggy and unappetizing. \n\nBy the time our drinks arrived, we were ready to order our main courses. The menu seemed promising, but what we received was far from it. My spouse ordered the linguine with clams, which turned out to be a disaster – the pasta was overcooked and drowned in a watery, flavorless sauce. Not only that, but some of the clams were raw and inedible. My dish, the chicken alfredo, was equally disappointing. The chicken was dry and rubbery, and the alfredo sauce tasted suspiciously like it was from a jar, lacking any hint of creaminess or depth of flavor.\n\nAside from the food quality, the overall service at Tasty Terrace left a lot to be desired. Not only did our server seldom check on us, but they also failed to clear away our dirty appetizer plates to make room for our main courses. Additionally, when we requested more water or a refill on our drinks, it ended up taking an inordinate amount of time and multiple reminders for our requests to be fulfilled.\n\nThe ambiance of the restaurant also failed to impress. The dining area was dimly lit, making it difficult to see the menu, and it was also uncomfortably warm. While this may not typically be a category of criticism, in conjunction with the numerous other issues we faced during our visit, the uncomfortable atmosphere further added to our already tarnished experience.\n\nIn conclusion, my family and I were extremely disappointed with our dining experience at Tasty Terrace. As much as I wanted to enjoy our night out, the terrible food, slow and inattentive service, and unpleasant ambiance left us feeling unsatisfied and frustrated. Sadly, we will not be returning, and I cannot recommend Tasty Terrace to anyone looking for a quality dining experience.", "role": "assistant" } ]

This initial phase is crucial for the owl's survival, as it relies on its extraordinary adaptations to successfully hunt and capture prey in the darkness of the night.\n\nBefore the owl takes flight, it must mentally and physically prepare for the task ahead. Several factors play a role in this preparation, ensuring that the owl is ready and primed to hunt effectively. Some of these factors include:\n\n1. Assessing environmental conditions: The owl gauges the ambient lighting, weather conditions, and possible hazards in its hunting area before venturing out. This information helps the owl in choosing the best time and place to hunt, maximizing the chances of a successful catch.\n\n2. Evaluating energy levels and hunger: The owl takes into account its energy reserves and how hungry it is before deciding to embark on a hunt. Hunting is a demanding activity requiring strength, agility, and endurance, so the owl must ensure it has adequate energy stores before starting its pursuit of prey.\n\n3. Grooming and preening: Just like other birds, owls meticulously groom their feathers before flight. This routine process of preening helps maintain the owl's feathers in optimal condition, ensuring its flight remains silent while improving its aerodynamic efficiency. A well-groomed owl is better equipped to navigate the night in search of prey.\n\n4. Sharpening senses: Before embarking on a hunt, the owl fine-tunes its keen senses (sight, hearing, and touch) to effectively detect and locate prey in the dark. This process may involve adjusting its head position to enhance its auditory perception, focusing its eyes with precision to perceive minute movements, and heightening other sensory faculties essential for hunting.\n\n5. Stretching and flexing muscles: The owl engages in a series of stretches and wing movements to warm up its muscles and ensure optimal performance during the hunt. This pre-flight routine minimizes the risk of injury and enables the owl to execute sudden bursts of speed and agility required to catch its prey.\n\nOnce these preparatory steps are completed, the owl is ready to fly out into the night and begin its hunt. Employing its unique set of adaptations, including its incredible stealth, keen eyesight, and exceptional hearing, the owl is perfectly equipped to navigate the challenges of nocturnal predation and, with luck and skill, secure a meal that will sustain it through the night.", "role": "assistant" } ]

It is a common audio format for consumer audio streaming or storage, as well as a de facto standard of digital audio compression for the transfer and playback of music on most digital audio players and computing devices. - Country pop is a subgenre of country music and pop music that was developed by members of the Country genre out of a desire to reach a larger, mainstream audience. By producing country songs that employed many styles and sounds found in pop music, the country music industry was effective in gaining new listeners without alienating its traditional country audience. It is a continuation of similar efforts that began in the late 1950s originally known as Nashville sound and later on Countrypolitan. By the mid-1970s, many country artists were transitioning to the pop-country sound which led to some records charting high on mainstream top 40 as well as country \"Billboard\" charts. - Compact disc (CD) is a digital optical disc data storage format released in 1982 and co-developed by Philips and Sony. The format was originally developed to store and play only sound recordings but was later adapted for storage of data (CD-ROM). Several other formats were further derived from these, including write-once audio and data storage (CD-R), rewritable media (CD-RW), Video Compact Disc (VCD), Super Video Compact Disc (SVCD), Photo CD, PictureCD, CD-i, and Enhanced Music CD. Audio CD players have been commercially available since October 1982, when the first commercially available CD player was released in Japan. - I 'm Leaving It All Up to You is the debut album by Donny & Marie Osmond , released in 1974 . Two singles were released from the album : `` I 'm Leavin ' It ( All ) Up to You '' ( US Pop # 4 , Country # 17 ) and `` Morning Side of the Mountain '' ( US Pop # 8 ) . - Donald Clark \"Donny\" Osmond (born December 9, 1957) is an American singer, actor, radio personality, and former teen idol. Osmond has also been a talk and game show host, record producer and author. In the mid-1960s, he and four of his elder brothers gained fame as the Osmonds. Osmond went solo in the early 1970s, covering such hits as \"Go Away Little Girl\" and \"Puppy Love\". - A doll is a model of a human being, often used as a toy for children. Dolls have traditionally been used in magic and religious rituals throughout the world, and traditional dolls made of materials such as clay and wood are found in the Americas, Asia, Africa and Europe. The earliest documented dolls go back to the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Greece and Rome. The use of dolls as toys was documented in Greece around 100 AD. They have been made as crude, rudimentary playthings as well as elaborate art. Modern doll manufacturing has its roots in Germany, going back to the 15th century. With industrialization and new materials such as porcelain and plastic, dolls were increasingly mass-produced. During the 20th century, dolls became increasingly popular as collectibles. - Olive Marie Osmond (born October 13, 1959) is an American singer, actress, doll designer, and a member of the show business family the Osmonds. Although she was never part of her family's singing group, she gained success as a solo country music artist in the 1970s and 1980s. Her best known song is a cover of the country pop ballad \"Paper Roses\". From 1976 to 1979, she and her singer brother Donny Osmond hosted the television variety show \"Donny & Marie\". - · \"Paper Roses\" is a popular song written and composed by Fred Spielman and Janice Torre. It first was a top five hit in 1960 for Anita Bryant with Monty Kelly's Orchestra and Chorus. Marie Osmond later covered it in 1973 and took her version to number one on the US country chart. - Country music is a genre of United States popular music that originated in the southern United States in the 1920s. It takes its roots from the southeastern genre of United States, such as folk music (especially Appalachian folk music), and blues music. Blues modes have been used extensively throughout its recorded history. Country music often consists of ballads and dance tunes with generally simple forms and harmonies accompanied by mostly string instruments such as banjos, electric and acoustic guitars, dobros and fiddles as well as harmonicas. According to Lindsey Starnes, the term \"country music\" gained popularity in the 1940s in preference to the earlier term \"hillbilly music\"; it came to encompass Western music, which evolved parallel to hillbilly music from similar roots, in the mid-20th century. The term \"country music\" is used today to describe many styles and subgenres. The origins of country music are the folk music of working-class Americans, who blended popular songs, Irish and Celtic fiddle tunes, traditional English ballads, and cowboy songs, and various musical traditions from European immigrant communities. In 2009 country music was the most listened to rush hour radio genre during the evening commute, and second most popular in the morning commute in the United States. - A book is a set of written, printed, illustrated, or blank sheets, made of paper, parchment, or other materials, fastened together to hinge at one side, with text and/or images printed in ink. A single sheet within a book is a leaf, and each side of a leaf is a page. A set of text-filled or illustrated pages produced in electronic format is known as an electronic book, or e-book. - The LP (from \"long playing\" or \"long play\") is an analog sound storage medium, a vinyl record format characterized by a speed of rpm, a 12 or 10 inch (30 or 25 cm) diameter, and use of the \"microgroove\" groove specification. Introduced by Columbia in 1948, it was soon adopted as a new standard by the entire record industry. Apart from a few relatively minor refinements and the important later addition of stereophonic sound, it has remained the standard format for vinyl albums. - The Osmonds are an American family music group with a long and varied career a career that took them from singing barbershop music as children to achieving success as teen-music idols, from producing a hit television show to continued success as solo and group performers. The Osmonds are devout members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and their religious values have influenced their careers. - Albums of recorded music were developed in the early 20th century, first as books of individual 78rpm records, then from 1948 as vinyl LP records played at  rpm. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though in the 21st century album sales have mostly focused on compact disc (CD) and MP3 formats.

At an early age, he left school and supported himself through a succession of un skilled jobs ----working as a paper boy, in bowling alleys, on ice wagons, and in canneries and mills. Despite working long hours at these jobs, London was able to read constantly, borrowing travel and adventure books from the library. The books London read inspired him to travel, and his job experiences led him to become active in fighting for the fights of workers. He sailed to Japan on a journey aiming at catching seals and joined a cross-country protest march with a group of unemployed workers. After being arrested for vagrancy near Buffalo, New York, London decided to educate himself and reshape his life. He quickly completed high school and entered the University of California. After only one term, however, the appeal of fortune and adventure proved uncontrollable. London gave up his studies and traveled to the Alaskan Yukon in 1897 in search of gold. Jack London was among the first of these miners. He may have searched for more than gold, however. London once commented, \" True, the new region was mostly poor; but its several hundred thousand square miles of coldness at least gave breathing space to those who else would have choked at home.\" Although he was unsuccessful as a miner, London's experiences in Alaska taught him about the human desire for wealth and power and about humankind's inability to control the forces of nature. While in Alaska, London also absorbed memories and stories that would make him known one hundred years later. Once back in California, London became determined to earn a living as a writer. He rented a typewriter and worked up to fifteen hours a day, spinning his Alaskan adventures into short...

Seaweed and saltwater fish are also sources of iodide.\n\nStep 2: Analyze the situation in the two villages\nIn Salt village, people consumed regular salt, which is not iodized and does not contain the iodide anion. In Sand village, people consumed iodized salt, which contains the iodide anion their body needs to maintain proper thyroid function and prevent developmental difficulties.\n\nStep 3: Compare the two villages in terms of potential developmental difficulties\nSince people in Sand village consumed iodized salt, which contains the iodide anion necessary to prevent developmental difficulties, they are less likely to experience these problems. Meanwhile, people in Salt village consumed regular salt, which does not provide any iodide anion, making them more likely to face developmental difficulties due to iodine deficiency.\n\nStep 4: Answer the question\nBased on the information provided, the village with fewer people experiencing developmental difficulties is Sand village, as they consumed iodized salt in their diets, which helps to prevent the issues associated with iodine deficiency.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Caribu island, inhabited by more natives, hunted a few of the animal species there, contributing to the extinction of a few. People from Hiji island, were pescotarian, and hardly ever fished. Which island experienced more environmental degradation? Hint: Biodiversity loss is the extinction of species (plant or animal) worldwide, and also the local reduction or loss of species in a certain habitat. The latter phenomenon can be temporary or permanent, depending on whether the environmental degradation that leads to the loss is reversible through ecological restoration / ecological resilience or effectively permanent (e.g. through land loss). Global extinction has so far been proven to be irreversible. Even though permanent global species loss is a more dramatic phenomenon than regional changes in species composition, even minor changes from a healthy stable state can have dramatic influence on the food web and the food chain insofar as reductions in only one species can adversely affect the entire chain (coextinction), leading to an overall reduction in biodiversity, possible alternative stable states of an ecosystem notwithstanding. Ecological effects of biodiversity are usually counteracted by its loss. Reduced biodiversity in particular leads to reduced ecosystem services and eventually poses an immediate danger for food security, also for humankind.[1]\nA:", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Based on the given information, Caribu island experienced more environmental degradation compared to Hiji island.\n\nCaribu island has a larger native population that hunted some of the animal species present on the island, leading to the extinction of a few species. The extinction of these species can have significant impacts on the food web and the food chain of the island's ecosystem. As one species disappears, it can lead to coextinction or adverse effects on the other species that are dependent on it, either directly or indirectly. This, in turn, results in a reduction of biodiversity on Caribu island, negatively affecting its ecosystem services and stability.\n\nOn the other hand, Hiji island inhabitants were pescotarian, primarily consuming fish, and hardly ever fished. Thus, they did not significantly contribute to the local reduction or loss of species in their habitat. By maintaining a more stable and less impacted ecosystem, Hiji island likely experienced less environmental degradation compared to Caribu island.\n\nWhile global extinction is irreversible and has more dramatic consequences, even small changes in species composition at local levels can lead to diverse ecological effects.

Tibetan Antelopes Tibetan antelopes are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are usually found in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, people simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by year. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down from a million 50 years ago. Golden Monkeys Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi provinces and Shengnongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys have golden-orange fur. They move around in the daytime, usually in groups of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos.

Think like you are answering to a five year old.", "role": "system" }, { "content": "Article:\nI’ve only been using it for about a day now, but the Nexus 7 is already the best 7-inch tablet I’ve ever tested. Without question, it out-classes the hugely popular Amazon Kindle Fire. It’s also a better-performing device than Barnes & Noble’s Nook Tablet and Nook Color, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Toshiba’s Excite 7, and anything else out there in this size. \n \n The Nexus 7 is manufactured by Asus but serves as a full-fledged Android flagship device. This means it runs a completely pure, unadulterated version of Google’s latest mobile operating system — Android 4.1, aka Jelly Bean. The hardware was designed by Asus and Google together, and it just can’t be matched in terms of 7-inch tablet value. \n \n For one thing, it’s the world’s only quad-core 7-inch tablet, and it will sell for $200 with 8GB of storage and $250 with 16GB of storage. The Google Play storefront has the tablet on pre-order now for shipment in mid-July. \n \n Inside is Nvidia’s Tegra 3 quad-core processor, a 12-core Nvidia GPU and 1GB of RAM. These internals give the Nexus 7 plenty of speed and processing power. When I first turned on the tablet, and logged into my Google account and began downloading content, swiping between different home screens was a bit stuttery. It wasn’t any worse than what I’ve experienced on other tablets, but I didn’t get the feeling the Nexus 7 was brimming with category-leading components. \n \n \n \n That, however was a temporary problem. After just a few minutes — and after the Nexus 7 had finished downloading a ton of content, all at the same time — the tablet’s speed was apparent. I’ll put it simply: The Nexus 7 is a wicked fast tablet that can effortlessly switch between apps, stream HD video, play songs, and launch magazines. On top of all that, everything looks good on the Nexus 7’s 1280 x 800 touchscreen — books, movies, magazines, games and apps. \n \n The main home screen features a widget called My Library that shows books, magazines, music, TV shows and movies you’ve recently read, watched or listened to. If you haven’t yet purchased anything from the Google Play storefront, you’ll still discover content in these buckets, as Google is giving away some items for free with its Nexus 7 launch. These include the movie Transformers: Dark of the Moon, a few songs, a copy of the Bourne Dominion novel, and a few magazine trials — Esquire, Popular Science, and Family Circle. A $25 credit to spend in Google Play is included as well. \n \n On the other home screens, there are widgets for the specific types of content Google sells — My Movies, My Music, My Books and My Magazines. Kindle Fire, much? \n \n Below those widgets, distributed across the five home screens, are recommendation widgets that Google has built in to suggest what other movies, music, books or magazines you might like based on what you’ve already purchased. The widgets are nicely designed, showing off movie posters, album covers, and magazines in inviting detail. A tap on any image sucks you directly into that piece of content to read or play back quickly. The widgets are removable, but the design is attractive, and the hardware allows for quick recommendation updates without slowing down the device. \n \n Before the Nexus 7, these widgets didn’t exist. Make no mistake, Google wants consumers to understand that it’s very easy to read, watch, listen to, and buy digital media on this tablet. The Kindle Fire won over consumers with a low price, ease of use, and a focus on entertainment. It was essentially a portable doorway into Amazon’s online storefront, which is the largest in the world. Google wants consumers to see the Nexus 7 the same way — easy and fun to use. \n \n The operating system, Google’s Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, runs smoothly and quickly. There’s no hesitation when launching apps or playing games. And, this being a Nexus device, all of Jelly Bean’s new features are here in the Nexus 7, including Google voice search, which talks back to you in a new challenge to Apple’s Siri. \n \n Time will tell if the Asus-Google collaboration is able to convince consumers to hop on board. I still have plenty of testing ahead with the Nexus 7 — I haven’t even yet tried out the front-facing camera or NFC features. But already I’m finding the latest Android tablet to be very easy to use, and even fun. I think Asus and Google have a winner here. ||||| After a week of successful introductions to the new Asus-built Nexus 7 tablet, the latest version of Android (nicknamed Jelly Bean), and its first self-manufactured hardware product in the Nexus Q, Google’s week is ending on a sour note. Apple has reportedly won an injunction against the Samsung Galaxy Nexus smartphone, Google’s flagship Android handset. \n \n Jelly Bean is supposed to make its public debut on the Nexus 7 and the Galaxy Nexus in mid-July. But on Friday, U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh granted a preliminary injunction that will halt U.S. sales of the Galaxy Nexus, according to a Reuters report. \n \n The decision closely follows Koh’s Wednesday ruling that won Apple an injunction against another Android-powered Samsung device, the Galaxy 10.1 tablet. \n \n Though not a party in the lawsuit, Google emailed Wired a statement on the injunction, saying: “We’re disappointed with this decision, but we believe the correct result will be reached as more evidence comes to light.” \n \n Samsung and Apple did not respond for comment by the time of publication. And the official court ruling is not yet publicly available. \n \n According to Dan Levine, a Reuters reporter on site at the ruling, Judge Koh handed out paper copies of her decision to issue the temporary sales ban to both Apple’s and Samsung’s attorneys on Friday afternoon. ||||| Apple's ridiculous patent assault against Samsung finally hits Google, which suddenly looks genius for choosing Asus to manufacture the Nexus 7 tablet. On Friday, US District Judge Lucy Koh issued a preliminary injunction against Galaxy Nexus, which is Google's flagship, stock Android smartphone. Days earlier she barred Galaxy Tab 10.1. For the preliminary injunction to go into effect, Apple must first put up $96 million. \n \n What timing. To preview Android 4.1 Jellybean, the company gave one to each of more than 5,000 developers during Google I/O earlier this week. The new OS releases to Motorola XOOM tablets and Galaxy Nexus in mid-July, making the smartphone the first to get the important upgrade. The preliminary injunction would somewhat stymie Jellybean distribution ahead of iO6, which Apple is months from releasing. New features include voice response, that in BetaNews testing smoke Apple's Siri. If you're thinking about buying Galaxy Nexus, don't wait! \n \n The injunction hinges on rather vague US Patent no. 8,086,604 -- a \"universal interface for retrieval of information in a computer system”. From the patent: \n \n The present invention provides convenient access to items of information that are related to various descriptors input by a user, by means of a unitary interface which is capable of accessing information in a variety of locations, through a number of different techniques. Using a plurality of heuristic algorithms to operate upon information descriptors input by the user, the present invention locates and displays candidate items of information for selection and/or retrieval. Thus, the advantages of a search engine can be exploited, while listing only relevant object candidate items of information. \n \n Apple looks desperate from the looks of things, as it wants to restrict sales of old products. While Galaxy Nexus will initially be the main device for Jellybean, it's not considered a top-seller and Google and Samsung jointly launched the phone in October. In the United States, Sprint and Verizon sell the LTE model locked and subsidized, while Google offers the HSPA+ Galaxy Nexus unlocked. \n \n Judge Koh granted the injunction, accepting Apple claims of irreparable harm because of \"long-term loss of market share\". These words speak for themselves in this case. Apple claims that the Galaxy Nexus has dented their market share, which is really laughable, considering Samsung Galaxy S II is by measure of many millions the bigger seller. The lawyers must be pleased with their finding, as it took them 7 months to find it. Maybe they're laughing, too, at their snookering the judge. \n \n The fact that Apple is going for products that don’t have much market time left in them also speaks volumes about the philosophy of CEO Tim Cook. On one hand, during last quarter's earnings conference call, he claims that he doesn’t like to go to court; but, on the other hand, he sues a competitor to get an injunction for a 7-month old product, which is close to its end-of-life. Apple got the preliminary injunction after failing to bar Samsung Galaxy S III and gaining temporary ban against HTC One X. \n \n That Samsung has done so poorly in the courts might be one explanation Google chose Asus for the Nexus 7 tablet. Samsung is Apple's largest competitor and, and as such, takes the most legal attacks -- all while iPhone and iOS fall behind Android. \n \n Apple's patent lawsuits can only hurt their public image and align people against them. Earlier this month my colleague Joe Wilcox boycotted Apple for being a \"patent bully\". \n \n Apple’s behavior looks more like continuation of late-Steve Jobs personal vendetta against all Android phone manufacturers basically and it’s an appalling way to gain temporary increase in market share. The only ones affected are, as always, the fans of Google/Samsung that want to buy the Galaxy Nexus. \n \n Apple is subtly telling the world that it doesn’t matter what anyone wants and that they’ve got the resources to find any possible reason to stop them from getting what they want. And they’re doing a great job at it, too. ||||| Hugo Barra, director of product management of Google, holds a Samsung Galaxy Nexus mobile phone during Google I/O 2012 Conference at Moscone Center in San Francisco, California June 27, 2012. \n \n SAN JOSE, California A U.S. judge on Friday granted Apple Inc's (AAPL.O) request for a pre-trial injunction against the sale of Samsung Electronics Co Ltd's (005930.KS) Galaxy Nexus phone, handing the iPhone maker its second legal victory against Samsung in a week. \n \n Apple and Samsung, the world's largest consumer electronics corporations, are waging legal war in several countries, accusing each other of patent violations as they vie for supremacy in a fast-growing market for mobile devices. \n \n Friday's decision, by U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh in San Jose, California, comes days after she also slapped a pre-trial ban on sales of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1, a tablet computer that runs on Google Inc's (GOOG.O) Android and goes toe-to-toe with the iPad. \n \n The back-to-back triumphs - significant because pre-trial injunctions are rarely granted - meant Apple had a better week in court than last week, when Chicago federal court judge Richard Posner ruled the iPhone maker could not pursue an injunction against Google's Motorola Mobility, effectively ending that case. \n \n \"Apple has made a clear showing that, in the absence of a preliminary injunction, it is likely to lose substantial market share in the smartphone market and to lose substantial downstream sales of future smartphone purchases and tag-along products,\" Judge Koh said in Friday's ruling. \n \n Koh scheduled a hearing on Monday to consider whether to put the Galaxy Nexus injunction on hold pending appeal. And she said in court that she might rule on Sunday whether or to similarly put on hold the earlier injunction on the Galaxy Tab. \n \n Apple has waged an international patent war since 2010 as it seeks to limit the growth of Google's Android system, the world's most-used mobile operating platform. Opponents of Apple say it is using patents too aggressively in a bid to stamp out competition. \n \n Spokeswoman Kristin Huguet reiterated her previous statement, accusing Samsung of copying the look and feel of its products. Samsung was not immediately available for comment. \n \n As a condition of the injunction, Apple was ordered to post a bond of more than $95 million, to secure payment of damages sustained by Samsung should the injunction be deemed a wrongful decision later. The order shall become effective upon posting of the bond. \n \n The case in U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, is Apple Inc v.

While performing the task think step-by-step and justify your steps.", "role": "system" }, { "content": "Please write a short summary for the following article:\n\nBuilding Spiritual Capital\n\nLisa Miller is a professor of psychology and education at Teachers College, Columbia University. One day she entered a subway car and saw that half of it was crowded but the other half was empty, except for a homeless man who had some fast food on his lap and who was screaming at anybody who came close.\n\nAt one stop, a grandmother and granddaughter, about 8, entered the car. They were elegantly dressed, wearing pastel dresses and gloves with lace trim. The homeless man spotted them and screamed, “Hey! Do you want to sit with me?” They looked at each other, nodded and replied in unison, “Thank you” and, unlike everybody else, sat directly next to him.\n\nThe man offered them some chicken from his bag. They looked at each other and nodded and said, “No, thank you.” The homeless man offered several more times, and each time they nodded to each other and gave the same polite answer. Finally, the homeless man was calmed, and they all sat contentedly in their seats.\n\nMiller was struck by the power of that nod. “The nod was spirituality shared between child and beloved elder: spiritual direction, values, taught and received in the loving relationship,” she writes in her book “The Spiritual Child.” The grandmother was teaching the granddaughter the wisdom that we were once all strangers in a strange land and that we’re judged by how we treat those who have the least.\n\nMiller’s core argument is that spiritual awareness is innate and that it is an important component in human development. An implication of her work is that if you care about social mobility, graduation rates, resilience, achievement and family formation, you can’t ignore the spiritual resources of the people you are trying to help.\n\nMiller defines spirituality as “an inner sense of relationship to a higher power that is loving and guiding.” Different people can conceive of this higher power as God, nature, spirit, the universe or just a general oneness of being. She distinguishes spirituality, which has a provable genetic component, from religious affiliation, which is entirely influenced by environment.\n\nI’d say Miller doesn’t pay sufficient attention to the many secular, this-world ways people find to organize their lives. Still, it does seem true that most children are born with a natural sense of the spiritual. If they find a dead squirrel on the playground, they understand there is something sacred there, and they will most likely give it a respectful burial. They have a natural sense of the oneness of creation, and a sense of a transcendent, nonmaterial realm. Miller cites twin studies that suggest that the strength of a child’s spiritual awareness is about 29 percent because of broad genetic heritability, 24 percent because of family environment and 47 percent because of a person’s unique individual environment.\n\nSpiritual awareness, she continues, surges in adolescence, at about the same time as depression and other threats to well-being. Some level of teenage depression, she says, should be seen as a normal part of the growth process, as young people ask fundamental questions of themselves. The spiritual surge in adolescence is nature’s way of responding to this normal crisis.\n\n“Taken together,” Miller writes, “research supports the idea of a common physiology underlying depression and spirituality.” In other words, teenagers commonly suffer a loss of meaning, confidence and identity. Some of them try to fill the void with drugs, alcohol, gang activity and even pregnancy. But others are surrounded by people who have cultivated their spiritual instincts. According to Miller’s research, adolescents with a strong sense of connection to a transcendent realm are 70 percent to 80 percent less likely to engage in heavy substance abuse. Among teenage girls, having a strong spiritual sense was extremely protective against serious depression. Adults who consider themselves highly spiritual at age 26 are, according to her research, 75 percent protected against recurrence of depression.\n\nInnate spiritual capacities can wither unless cultivated — the way innate math faculties can go undeveloped without instruction. Loving families nurture these capacities, especially when parents speak explicitly about spiritual quests. The larger question, especially in this age of family disruption, is whether public schools and other institutions should do more to nurture spiritual faculties.\n\nPublic schools often give short shrift to spirituality for fear that they would be accused of proselytizing religion. But it should be possible to teach the range of spiritual disciplines, in order to familiarize students with the options, without endorsing any one.\n\nIn an era in which so many people slip off the rails during adolescence, we don’t have the luxury of ignoring a resource that, if cultivated, could see them through. Ignoring spiritual development in the public square is like ignoring intellectual, physical or social development. It is to amputate people in a fundamental way, leading to more depression, drug abuse, alienation and misery.\n\nSummary:", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Lisa Miller, professor at Teachers College, Columbia University, argues that spiritual awareness is an innate part of human development and affects factors such as social mobility, graduation rates, and resilience. Miller differentiates spirituality from religious affiliation and highlights that spirituality has a genetic component.

While public schools may avoid addressing spirituality to prevent accusations of endorsing religion, nurturing spiritual development can offer a valuable resource for the well-being of youth.", "role": "assistant" } ]
