Never mind what lies beneath: a world without dreamers would be a nightmare.\n\nSantiago, the old man in Ernest Hemingway’s 1952 novella, is a dreamer. But with age, his dreams have changed, scuffed and sanded down by decades of fishing the Gulf Stream: no longer does his sleeping mind drift to the great events throughout his life but instead just to a place, a childhood memory: lions playing on an African beach. And he wonders: “Why are the lions the main thing that is left?”\n\nSantiago is a simple man. Fishing is his life, while baseball, the Gran Ligas, is his religion. A New York Yankee, “the great DiMaggio”, is his earthly god. But lately the sea has been cruel, and the old man has endured 84 days without a catch. He thinks and speaks of luck but is not prone to superstition. He is reverent but not pious, wary of devotion, although he could waver. When it suits, when hope takes the bait under the deep blue sea, Santiago offers to pray should he require not only strength but fortitude to land his prize: “I will say ten Our Fathers and ten Hail Marys that I should catch this fish, and I promise to make a pilgrimage to the Virgin de Cobre if I catch him. That is a promise.”\n\nWith his village status of saleo, “the worst form of unlucky”, his body racked and gnarled by years of labour but with blue eyes “cheerful and undefeated”, he sets out on the 85th day since his last catch and rows the skiff far, away from the deep wells that have offered no reward, towards “the schools of bonita and albacore” where he might fare better: “My big fish must be somewhere.”\n\nHe is not wrong. But it is then, with his quarry hooked, that the true test begins. Day becomes night becomes day, and with little or no sleep the old man loses track of time and islands of Sargasso weed drift by. Eating raw bonito and dorado to maintain strength, while slowly sapping the marlin’s will, Santiago regrets his poor planning: “I will never go in a boat again without salt or limes.” But his words are laced with hope that he will return to the sea.\n\nHe will win the battle but lose the prize, and rue the desperation that carried him beyond practical bounds. He laments the ruins of his lionheart dream, and yet he remains unbowed: “A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”\n\nI was revisiting this fable when news broke that an elderly priest had been slain at the Normandy altar where he was presiding over mass. After the horror had ebbed, I returned to Hemingway and found solace. Words have a power no violence can breach. Whispered in a church or shouted in a storm, words are a lifelong friend.

After 84 days of not catching any fish, Santiago would pray to baseball players in hopes of catching a fish.

[ { "content": "Rewrite this into a bulleted list of key points that shed some light on how to interpret muscle soreness after exercise.\n\nHere’s what muscle soreness can and cannot tell you according to science. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is something we’ve all experienced and intuitively, you may think it means you had a good workout or that your muscles are growing. Indeed, soreness can be associated with muscle swelling, but that’s edema, water retention in the muscle, not contractile muscle growth. Most of my subscribers are probably aware now that being sore is not necessarily a sign you had a good workout. You can get big without getting sore and getting sore doesn’t guarantee you’ll get big.\n\nHowever, many people still use muscle soreness as some indicator of recovery after a workout. This is also wrong. Muscle soreness correlates poorly with muscle damage, if it correlates at all. For example, here are the data from a study that measured muscle soreness and creatine kinase elevation, a measure of muscle damage, after a heavy leg day in weightlifters vs. untrained individuals. While the untrained individuals experienced far more muscle damage, soreness levels were actually a bit higher in the weightlifters. The difference in muscle damage was thus not reflected in different levels of soreness. The time-courses of muscle damage and soreness also didn’t correspond well. The untrained individuals were no longer sore at day 6, yet their muscles were still very damaged.\n\nBelow are the data from another study that measured muscle soreness vs. strength recovery after endurance vs. maximal eccentric exercise. After the endurance exercise, strength recovered rapidly with most recovery in 24 hours and nearly full recovery at 48 hours (no longer significantly different from baseline), yet this period was when soreness peaked. The eccentric exercise caused considerably more neuromuscular fatigue and strength loss than the endurance training, yet ratings of soreness weren’t that different compared to after the endurance exercise. Other research also finds that certain types of training, such as electrically stimulated muscle contractions, can inflict significantly more muscle damage than conventional strength training without increasing DOMS.\n\nPerhaps the best evidence of the dissociation between soreness and recovery is that training through soreness often doesn’t make it worse. Many of my clients get very sore the first time they do their new workout routines, yet repeating them a few days later while they’re still sore often reduces the soreness. At this point their performance is already slightly greater, indicating that soreness can persist after neuromuscular recovery and even supercompensation have completed.\n\nSoreness may not even be related to muscle damage at the cellular level. There’s emerging research that muscle soreness is more closely related to our connective tissues than our contractile tissues in the muscle. Wilke & Behringer (2021) concluded: “the findings support the hypothesis that DOMS originates in the muscle-associated connective tissue rather than in the muscle itself.”\n\nSoreness also has a significant neural component. Soreness isn’t a direct reflection of muscle or connective tissue damage, as there’s significant modulation of how much we feel a given level of damage. The repeated bout effect majorly reduces the soreness you get from any type of exercise, so you mostly get sore from novel stimuli, even if your habitual workouts are still causing damage and fatigue.\n\nMuscle soreness probably does mean there is some level of damage: you can’t get sore without damage. (Phantom DOMS?) However, the magnitude of soreness doesn’t correlate with the extent of muscle damage or neuromuscular fatigue and certainly not with the extent of muscle growth. You can have high levels of muscle damage or fatigue without soreness.\n\nSo basically all a sore muscle tells you is that muscle was involved in some exercise you did earlier. Some people and some body parts get much more sore than others. You mostly get sore after novel training stimuli, such as trying new exercises or higher training volumes. Don’t worry about soreness.\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "* Muscle soreness can be associated with muscle swelling but edema and water retention in the muscle contribute to the swelling, rather than muscle growth.\n* Muscle soreness (or Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness - DOMS) is not a major sign that a workout was successful at stimulating a muscle growth response.\n* Muscle soreness correlates poorly with muscle damage, if at all. Muscles could still be damaged even though soreness has subsided, or vice versa.\n* For example, electrically stimulated muscle contractions can cause significantly more muscle damage than strength training but without an increase in Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.\n* Training through soreness often doesn't make it worse. Soreness can even persist after neuromuscular recovery and super-compensation.\n* Muscular damage and soreness may not be related at all on the cellular level.\n* Soreness may be more relevant to associated connective tissues than muscular tissue.\n* The neural component of soreness is substantial. Novel stimuli, such as a new exercise or higher volume of exercise, may generate the most soreness versus an exercise done before in repeated bouts.\n* The idea that soreness is highly correlated with a level of damage appears to be untrue.\n* For muscle growth, soreness may not tell you anything more than that a muscle was involved in an exercise. Don't exercise to chase muscle soreness.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Here is a list of three lost cities that have been rediscovered.\n\n1. Ebla, Syria\nThe ancient city of Ebla, now known as Tell Mardikh, was a major city circa 3000 BCE. Ebla's ruins are located 33 miles (53 km) southwest of Aleppo in northwestern Syria. Site excavation started in 1964 and, in 1974, led to the discovery of tablets written in the Semitic vernacular. The tablets were translated and, as verified by texts from other civilizations, confirmed that the site was the lost city of Ebla. \n\n2. Troy, Turkey\nExcavation of the mound of Hisarlik, which archeologists believed was the ancient city of Troy, started in 1870. They soon discovered that Troy was rebuilt seven times with the first construction around 3000 BCE. Over time, war, fire and earthquakes destroyed the city and a new Troy was constructed over the remains. The Troy of Homer’s Iliad, unearthed in Troy VI and VII layers, was in the Late Bronze Age. The city is located on the Hisarlik mound on the Turkish Aegean and is about five kilometers away from the Dardanelles' southern entrance.\n\n3. Mohenjo Daro, Pakistan\nIn Pakistan's Sindh Province, in Larkana District, archeologists discovered the remains of Mohenjo Dara in 1922. The thousand-year city existed from around 2500 BCE to 1700 BCE in the Indus Valley. The city was zoned into districts for residential and industrial use and boasted a citadel constructed on a 40-foot high platform. One great mystery of this civilization, however, remains. Scholars still have not been able to translate the language found on clay seals. \n", "role": "assistant" } ]

This layer consists of rocks called sial that are primarily silica and alumina.\n* Mantle: The mantle is thicker than the crust and almost 3000km deep. It's made up of silicate rocks with magnesium and iron. \n* Outer core: The Earth's outer core is 4400-5000+ degrees Celsius, so its iron and nickel components are liquid. This layer creates a magnetic field that forms a protective barrier in space, shielding Earth from the sun's damaging solar wind.\n* Inner core: The inner core is over 5000 degrees C, meaning it's around as hot as the sun's surface.

Raccoons plant seeds - Raccoons love treats such as nuts, berries, and fruits. As raccoons travel, they expel the seeds of these plants alongside tree seeds. Because of this, they spread natural life throughout the environment.\n2. They dig - Raccoons are diggers, as they do it to search for food. Doing so promotes proper decomposition, helps with soil turnover, and benefits plant recruitment. This helps the ecosystem they live in to function and renew.\n3. They protect bees - It's fairly well known that bees are essential in the pollination and life of plants. Wasps pose a threat to bees, and raccoons eat wasp lava. This prevents wasp colonization in their environments.\n4. Raccoons promote clean and healthy ecosystems - Raccoons also promote the cleanliness and healthiness of their environments. This comes from the fact that they scavenge. This scavenging process gets rid of animal remains, or carrion. By doing so, they also clean up the ecosystem.\n5. Raccoons control parasites - Raccoons also feed on parasites that are out of control in their environment, such as rats, toads, and snakes.

In 1695 the governor of New York asked him to defend English ships from pirates in the Red Sea. In 1696 Kidd assembled men for the mission and set sail for the Indian Ocean. The men had little success until early 1968 when they captured the Quedagh Merchant, which was an Indian vessel allegedly sailing under a French pass and loaded with silk, gold, jewels, and guns. The capture of the ship sparked controversy in Britain because the ship had an English captain. \n\nKidd next sailed to St. Mary's, Madagascar, which was an infamous pirate haven and added to the suspicion that he had turned to piracy. He then went on to the West Indies, where he learned about the charges against him. He next sailed back to New York and delivered himself to the authorities in an effort to clear his name by stating that the vessels he had attacked were lawful prizes. He was not met with understanding and was instead arrested and sent to London. \n\nIn 1701 he was tried on charges of piracy and murdering a crewman.

To answer that, we need to start at the beginning.\nThe History\nIn the 1860s, the Second Empire of France under Napoleon III waged war against Mexico, with the intention of deposing the liberal government of President Benito Jurez. Napoleon wanted to create a new empire in Mexico that would ensure French access to the wealth of Latin America. The timing of the American Civil War also meant that the United States would be unable to enforce its Monroe Doctrine in support of the Mexican army.\nThe Battle of Puebla, fought on May 5, 1862, was a more symbolic victory than a strategic one. A small battalion of Mexican troops under General Ignacio Zaragoza defeated a much larger and better-equipped French army at the city of Puebla. The victory delayed French forces' advancement in the country, and provided a major morale boost for pro-Republic forces. The French troops were successful in conquering the capital of Mexico City and establishing a monarchy, but the Republicans rallied and regained control of Mexico by 1867.\nPresident Juarez declared that May 5 be a holiday to commemorate the valiant efforts of Puebla's defenders.

What was it for?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "It was a prototype aircraft intended to fill the airborne warning and control system (AWACS) role for the Soviet Union to serve the needs of their fighter-bombers and attack aircraft. Three prototypes were built, but the planes never entered active service. \n\nThe An-71 was based on the Antonov An-72 cargo plane. That type had high-mounted jet engines because it was built for short takeoffs and landings on imperfect runways in austere locations. Placing the engines up high made them less likely to suck debris off the ground and damage the turbine blades.\n\nWhen it came time to modify that design to carry a large 360-degree radar system, designers decided to try integrating it into the tail fin rather than placing the round radome on an extra set of mounting brackets. Any feature that you place in the way of airflow creates drag, so eliminating the need for extra uprights would improve the plane’s handling and range. \n\nEngineers couldn’t just put the radome on the standard tail, though. The radar equipment is heavy and alters the plane’s aerodynamics. Sweeping the tail forward placed the radome closer to the plane’s center of gravity and thus improved its stability. It was considered a major redesign of the tail section (the horizontal stabilizers also had to be repositioned).\n\nAntonov briefly considered creating a naval version of the An-71 as well, but it quickly became apparent that adapting it for carrier operations would demand too many redesigned features. That project was scrapped.\n\nThe An-71 never entered service in part because of problems developing the radar itself. Its death knell, though, was the collapse of the Soviet Union. Funding for the project evaporated, so it was abruptly halted. At the turn of the 21st century, Antonov in now-independent Ukraine tried to resurrect the project in order to sell An-71s to India, but that also fell through.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Polar bears are classified as marine animals.\nBecause they spend most of their lives on the sea ice of the Arctic Ocean depending on the ocean for their food and habitat, polar bears are the only bear species to be considered marine mammals.\n\n2. A polar bear's skin is actually black.\nBeneath all that thick fur, polar bears have jet black skin. The polar bear’s fur is also translucent, and only appears white because it reflects visible light.\n\n3. They can swim constantly for days at a time.\nAs well as reaching speeds of up to 6mph in the water, polar bears can swim for long distances and steadily for many hours to get from one piece of ice to another. Their large paws are specially adapted for swimming, which they’ll use to paddle through the water while holding their hind legs flat like a rudder.\n\n4. Less than 2% of polar bear hunts are successful.\nAlthough about half of a polar bear’s life is spent hunting for food, their hunts are rarely successful. A polar bear’s main prey consists of ringed seals and bearded seals, which they hunt in a variety of ways. Either by breaking into pupping dens, waiting at breathing holes or at the water’s edge, or stalking seals that have hauled out to rest on the ice. Besides catching seals, polar bears will also scavenge carcasses or settle for small mammals, birds, eggs and vegetation.\n\n5. Scientists can extract polar bear DNA from just their footprints.\nAn innovative new technique developed by WWF and DNA specialist firm SPYGEN allows scientists to isolate DNA from a polar bear’s footprint in the snow. Two tiny scoops of snow from a polar bear track revealed not just the DNA of the polar bear that made it, but even from a seal it had recently eaten.\n\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "1. What kind of animals are polar bears ?\nPolar bears are considered marine animals because they are on the sea ice of the Arctic Ocean most of the time. After all, this is where they get their food.

Although a polar bear's fur looks like it's white, it has no color. The only reason it looks like it's white is because it reflects visible light. \n\n3. How long can polar bears swim for and how do they do it?\nPolar bears can swim day after day for a steady amount of time. Not only that, but they can swim for up to 6 miles per hour in water. Polar bears can swim far for a long time, especially if they want to get from one piece of ice to another. Their big paws are designed for swimming, and they use them to paddle through the water while keeping their hind legs flat. \n\n4. How many polar bear hunts are successful, and what do they eat?\nOnly 2 out of 100 polar bear hunts are a success. Even though a polar bear spends half of its life trying to hunt for food, they are rarely lucky. A polar bear mostly eats ringed seals and bearded seals, and they hunt for them in different ways. They either break into pupping dens or follow them when they are on the ice. Polar bears also eat small mammals, birds, plants, or eggs. \n\n5. How do scientists get the DNA of a polar bear?\nThere has been a new method developed by specialists that helps scientists get DNA from a polar bear's footprint in the snow. They only need two small scoops of snow to get the DNA of a polar bear, and even the DNA of a recent meal, such as a seal.", "role": "assistant" } ]

The network signed on from its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, with a lead story about the attempted assassination of civil rights leader Vernon Jordan. \n\nCNN went on to change the notion that news could only be reported at fixed times throughout the day. At the time of CNN’s launch, TV news was dominated by three major networks—ABC, CBS and NBC—and their nightly 30-minute broadcasts. \n\nCNN was the brainchild of Robert “Ted” Turner, a colorful, outspoken businessman dubbed the “Mouth of the South.” Turner was born on November 19, 1938, in Cincinnati, Ohio, and as a child moved with his family to Georgia, where his father ran a successful billboard advertising company. After his father died by suicide in 1963, Turner took over the business and expanded it. In 1970, he bought a failing Atlanta TV station that broadcast old movies and network reruns and within a few years Turner had transformed it into a “superstation,” a concept he pioneered, in which the station was beamed by satellite into homes across the country. Turner later bought the Atlanta Braves baseball team and the Atlanta Hawks basketball team and aired their games on his network, TBS (Turner Broadcasting System). In 1977, Turner gained international fame when he sailed his yacht to victory in the prestigious America’s Cup race.\n\nIn its first years of operation, CNN lost money and was ridiculed as the Chicken Noodle Network. However, Turner continued to invest in building up the network’s news bureaus around the world and in 1983, he bought Satellite News Channel, owned in part by ABC, and thereby eliminated CNN’s main competitor. CNN eventually came to be known for covering live events around the world as they happened, often beating the major networks to the punch.

Remove the plant from its current planter or grow pot\nTurn your plant sideways, hold it gently by the stems or leaves, and tap the bottom of its current vessel until the plant slides out. You might need to give it a bit of help with a couple of gentle tugs on the base of the stems.\n\n2. Loosen the roots\nLoosen the plant’s roots gently with your hands. You can prune off any threadlike roots that are extra long, just make sure to leave the thicker roots at the base of the foliage. If your plant is root bound—the roots are growing in very tight circles around the base of the plant—unbind the roots as best you can and give them a trim.\n\n3. Remove the old potting mix\nRemove about one-third or more of the old potting mix surrounding the plant's roots. As it grew, your plant removed some or all of the nutrients in the current mix, so you'll want to give it fresh potting mix or soil.\n\n4. Add new potting mix\nPour a layer of fresh potting soil into the empty planter and pack it down, removing any air pockets. If your planter doesn’t have a drainage hole, layer the bottom with lava rocks or similar (rocks, gravel, etc.) before adding the potting mix. The goal is to create crevices for the extra water to pool into, away from your plant’s roots.\n\n5. Add your plant\nSet your plant on top of the fresh layer of mix in the planter, making sure it's centered, then add more potting mix around the plant until it is secure. Be sure not to pack too much soil into the planter: you want the roots to have space to breathe.\n\n6. Water and enjoy\nEven out the potting soil on top and water well!

[ { "content": "Rewrite this article as a script for a host of a children's program on PBS, explaining the four stages of the metamorphosis of moths or butterflies \n\nThere are four stages in the metamorphosis of butterflies and moths: egg, larva, pupa, and adult.\n\nmonarch butterfly egg\nEgg\nEggs are laid on plants by the adult female butterfly. These plants will then become the food for the hatching caterpillars.\n\nEggs can be laid from spring, summer or fall. This depends on the species of butterfly. Females lay a lot of eggs at once so that at least some of them survive.\n\nButterfly eggs can be very small.\n\nmonarch butterfly caterpillar\nCaterpillar: The Feeding Stage\nThe next stage is the larva. This is also called a caterpillar if the insect is a butterfly or a moth.\n\nThe job of the caterpillar is to eat and eat and eat. As the caterpillar grows it splits its skin and sheds it about 4 or 5 times. Food eaten at this time is stored and used later as an adult.\n\nCaterpillars can grow 100 times their size during this stage. For example, a monarch butterfly egg is the size of a pinhead and the caterpillar that hatches from this tiny egg isn't much bigger. But it will grow up to 2 inches long in several weeks.\n\nmonarch butterfly chrysalis\nPupa: The Transition Stage\nWhen the caterpillar is full grown and stops eating, it becomes a pupa. The pupa of butterflies is also called a chrysalis.\n\nDepending on the species, the pupa may suspended under a branch, hidden in leaves or buried underground. The pupa of many moths is protected inside a coccoon of silk.\n\nThis stage can last from a few weeks, a month or even longer. Some species have a pupal stage that lasts for two years.\n\nIt may look like nothing is going on but big changes are happening inside. Special cells that were present in the larva are now growing rapidly. They will become the legs, wings, eyes and other parts of the adult butterfly. Many of the original larva cells will provide energy for these growing adult cells.\n\nmonarch butterfly adult\nAdult: The Reproductive Stage\nThe adult stage is what most people think of when they think of butterflies. They look very different from the larva. The caterpillar has a few tiny eyes, stubby legs and very short antennae. The adults have long legs, long antennae, and compound eyes. They can also fly by using their large and colorful wings. The one thing they can't do is grow.\n\nThe caterpillar's job was to eat. The adult's job is to mate and lay eggs. Some species of adult butterflies get energy by feeding on nectar from flowers but many species don't feed at all.\n\nFlying comes in handy. The adult female can easily fly from place to place to find the right plant for its eggs. This is important because caterpillars can't travel far.\n\nMost adult butterflies live only one or two weeks, but some species hibernate during the winter and may live several months.\n\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Host: \"Hey kids! Today we are going to talk about the four stages of metamorphosis of butterflies and months. \n\nDoes anyone know what metamorphosis means? Well, let me tell you, it means a \"transformation or change in shape.\"\n\nSo when a caterpillar evolves into a moth or butterfly, they go through metamorphosis. \n\nThe four stages in the metamorphosis of moths and butterflies are egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Let's talk about each stage, okay?\n\nThe first stage is the egg stage. The grown-up female butterfly lays her very tiny eggs on plants that then become food for the hatching caterpillars. She lays a lot of eggs to make sure a lot of them live, and depending on the kind of butterfly, eggs can be laid in Spring, Summer or Fall. \n\nCool, huh? \n\nOkay, let's move on to the second stage, the Larva Stage. This is also called the caterpillar stage if the insect is a butterfly or moth. In this stage, the caterpillar eats so much because the food is stored and used later as a grown-up moth or butterfly. \n\nDid you know caterpillars can grow up to 100 times their size in this stage? WOW!!! Amazing, right? \n\nThe third stage is the Pupa stage. \n\nWhen the caterpillar is fully grown and stops eating, it is called a pupa. \n\nA pupa may hang from a branch, hide in leaves, or bury underground. The pupa stage can last from a week to a month, or even longer. Some even last two years. WHAT?! \n\nThat can be a long time. \n\nNow kids, it may not look like a lot is going on from the outside, but inside so many changes are happening. Special cells in the larva are growing very fast. These special cells will become legs, wings, eyes, and other parts of the grown-up butterfly. \n\nSome of the cells in the larva will give the growing cells energy. \n\nThe fourth and final stage is the Adult Stage. The adults look very different than the larva stage. For example, look at this [picture of a caterpillar]. Caterpillars have a few tiny eyes, stubby legs and very short antennae. \n\nThe adults [show a picture of a butterfly] have long legs, long antennae, and compound eyes. Compound eyes are clusters of very small receptors that allow insects to see in multiple directions at the same time. Very different than our human eyes. \n\nAnother difference is that adults can fly using their large, colorful wings, but they can't grow. \n\nRemember when we said caterpillars can grow to 100 times their size in the larva stage? Well, adults can't do that. See, the caterpillar's job was to eat, but the female butterfly's job is to get pregnant and lay eggs. \n\nSome of the adult butterflies get their energy feeding on nectar from flowers, and some don't eat anything at all. \n\nAnother difference between caterpillars and adult butterflies is that adult butterflies can fly to find just the right plant to lay their eggs. This is important because caterpillars can't travel that far.\n\nFascinating isn't it, kids? Wow, we learned a lot today. Make sure you tell your parents and friends that you learned the four stages of the metamorphosis of butterflies and months. \n\nFirst comes the Egg Stage. \nSecond, is the Larva Stage.\nThird is the Pupa Stage.\nFourth is the Adult Stage. \n\nGood job, kids!

Research what your mode(s) of transportation will be (rental car, train, bus, bike) for each step of the trip, and budget your time and money accordingly.\n3. Plan ahead - Traveling long distances requires planning to ensure the trip is enjoyable. This includes planning for situations that will arise, such as being hungry or thirsty, fatigue, and other issues. Consider bringing snacks, food, and water, or look for restaurants and rest stops along your planned route of travel. If traveling via rental car, make sure you know where the gas stations are along your route and ensure your gas tank is filled up for the long trip ahead. Bring spare articles of clothing in case the clothes you're wearing become dirty, and bring clothing that matches the environments you will be in, such as warm clothing for cold areas.\n4. Charge your phone - In case of an emergency, you will want to have a phone that is fully charged and capable of making calls for assistance.

It can keep you fuller between meals.\n• Healthy snacks only - Avoid stocking your dorm room with junk. Instead opt for healthy snacks like nuts, fruit, popcorn ad granola.\n• Take the stairs or scenic route - If you absolutely cannot find time to incorporate a small amount of exercise into your daily routine, get some while you do normal activities like going to class by taking the long route around and using the stairs instead of the elevator when possible.\n• Get plenty of sleep - Make sure you get an adequate amount of rest each night.", "role": "assistant" } ]
