[ { "content": "Give me a brief synopsis of what happened here:\n\n\"A YouTuber who deliberately crashed a plane to \"gain notoriety and make money\" has agreed to plead guilty to obstructing a federal investigation, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) announced yesterday. In his plea agreement, California pilot Trevor Jacob admitted to \"deliberately destroying\" the plane wreckage and repeatedly lying to officials. The crimes of destruction and concealment with intent to impede a federal investigation carry a maximum sentence of 20 years imprisonment and a potential fine of up to $250,000. The Los Angeles district court may impose a lesser sentence due to the plea deal, though.\n\nJacob is scheduled to appear in court in the coming weeks, the DOJ reported. A DOJ public information officer, Ciaran McEvoy, told Ars that Jacob has not yet pleaded guilty. After an initial court appearance—essentially a bond hearing—a change of plea hearing will be scheduled. If Jacob pleads guilty at that hearing, a federal judge will schedule a sentencing hearing several months later. From there, Jacob would meet with the US Probation Office, which will draft a confidential pre-sentencing report recommending the sentence that the office thinks he deserves. Jacob and the prosecutors can either agree or disagree with that sentencing report, and then, ultimately, a judge will determine what sentence is imposed. A former Olympic snowboarder and experienced pilot and skydiver, Jacob hatched his scheme to allegedly deliberately crash his plane on November 24, 2021, after securing a sponsorship and agreeing to promote a company's wallet in a video. The company has not been named, and there is no mention of wallets in the video titled \"I Crashed My Airplane\" that's still viewable on YouTube.\n\nThe real trouble for Jacob apparently started on November 26, 2021, when he reported the crash to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which informed him that \"he was responsible for preserving the wreckage so the agency could examine it,\" the DOJ reported. Jacob told an NTSB investigator that he would \"determine the crash location\" and provide coordinates. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) launched its own investigation three days later, and according to the plea agreement, over the next few weeks, Jacob started lying to federal investigators rather than cooperating with the investigation.\"", "role": "user" }, { "content": "A YouTuber by the name of Trevor Jacob has confessed to intentionally crashing his plane for YouTube clicks.

What were the main factors that contributed to the North's victory?\nThe North's overwhelming advantages in industrial capacity and population were the main factors in the victory of the Union over the Confederacy. An excellent quality answer should mention this as critical to the North's success over the South. Other factors that would constitute an excellent answer were the advantages in technology that the North would begin to experience in the realm of repeating firearms and artillery. The superior supply situation of the North would also be an excellent answer, given that the South was under naval blockade and tepid support from foreign powers. \n\n2. How did the Emancipation Proclamation contribute to the war effort?\nStudents should address in their answers the political advantages that came with emancipating the slaves that lived in the Southern States. By broadening the goals of the war, the Union made it more difficult for European forces from intervening on behalf of the confederacy, as slavery was already widely outlawed. It raised concern in the southern states of a slave revolt, which had for the entirety of the war, sapped the South's already limited manpower. It also unified the Union's cause over a moral goal and bolstered the Union's support amongst African Americans, for whom over 200,000 would serve in its military. ", "role": "assistant" } ]

How, then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily — how calmly I can tell you the whole story.\n\nIt is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture — a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees — very gradually — I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever.\n\nNow this is the point. You fancy me mad. Madmen know nothing. But you should have seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded — with what caution — with what foresight — with what dissimulation I went to work! I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him. And every night, about midnight, I turned the latch of his door and opened it — oh, so gently! And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern, all closed, closed, so that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly — very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man’s sleep. It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed. Ha! — would a madman have been so wise as this? And then, when my head was well in the room, I undid the lantern cautiously — oh, so cautiously — cautiously (for the hinges creaked) — I undid it just so much that a single thin ray fell upon the vulture eye. And this I did for seven long nights — every night just at midnight — but I found the eye always closed; and so it was impossible to do the work; for it was not the old man who vexed me, but his Evil Eye. And every morning, when the day broke, I went boldly into the chamber, and spoke courageously to him, calling him by name in a hearty tone, and inquiring how he had passed the night. So you see he would have been a very profound old man, indeed, to suspect that every night, just at twelve, I looked in upon him while he slept.\n\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The young man was nervous. He fidgeted and twitched with anxiety, noticing every flicker of a shadow as it danced in the twilight. At the faintest sound, like a branch brushing against the roof, the young man's pulse quickened. He would cock his head like a dog trying to pinpoint the exact source of a creak in the floor. At night, he chased imagined noises. He was confident that he could hear voices above and below his bed, but he couldn't quite make out what they were discussing. Was it him?\n\nIt wasn't always like this. For years, the young man was kind and neighbourly towards the old man who lived next door. The old man had been equally kind in return and lived modestly in his humble home. The two men had no qualms, but the young man began to feel unnerved by the old man's eye. One of his eyes was pale blue and with a film over it. Every time the young man felt the unseeing eye fall upon him, his blood ran cold. Over time, the dreadful sensation overwhelmed the young man until he decided that it, and the old man, had to be killed. \n\nThe young man knew that murder was wrong. He knew that the old man was not to blame for his horrible eye, and so was exceedingly kind to him. He did not wish to kill out of passion or madness but instead chose to methodically prepare for the eye's demise. For a week, the young man crept out of his bed at midnight, picked up his lantern and silently slipped into his neighbour's home. He stealthily made his way to the old man's bedroom and inch by inch pushed open the heavy door until he could fit his head inside the opening. Once able, he slowly slid open the sheath to his lantern until a beam of light struck the old man's eye. Night after night, the eye remained closed in sleep; and so the young man swiftly retreated from the room. After all, it was not the man he wanted to kill, but the evil eye. So every morning, the young man would greet the old man at his home with cheery warmth and faux concern about how the old man had slept. Not once did the old man suspect that his young neighbour was entering his bedroom midnight after midnight as the old man slept, awaiting the appearance of the terrible eye.

Give me a few tips on how to overcome the mental wall that keeps me from writing something awesome.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Writer’s block can affect anyone, from hopeful college essayists to elementary book reporters and award-winning novelists. Many creative minds chalk it up to burnout but knowing the cause doesn’t always provide the solution to get you in a clear mindset to write again. \n\nRead on for a few tips on how to overcome writer’s block and get back to a place of creative prowess. \n\n•\tSeek inspiration from another writer. \n\nRead for fun and inspiration! Delve into a book to read the words of one of your favorite authors. Sometimes their creativity can rub off on you! \n\n•\tWrite about your feelings, your day, your family… anything to get your creativity headed in the right direction. \n\nRenowned poet Charles Bukowski once said, “writing about writer’s block is better than not writing at all.” As long as you are actively writing whatever comes to mind, you are making strides toward inspiration to write something brilliant. \n\n•\tTake a step back and take care of yourself. \n\nSometimes writers push themselves too hard, too far, to come up with something well-written before a deadline, either self-imposed or professional. Step back and take care of yourself in other ways to clear your mind and feel refreshed. Take a bubble bath, spend time with friends and loved ones, binge a television show… do things that make you happy without the written word. Then come back to it rejuvenated. \n\n•\tFind a creative writing prompt that restores the thrill and fun of writing! \n\n“Pretend that you are an alien from another planet and you’ve just seen a cow for the first time. What are your thoughts?” \n\nWriting prompts can be silly, fun, and great ways to jumpstart your creativity. You don’t have to take yourself too seriously. Simply let your imagination play out on the paper. \n\n•\tWork your brain without words. \n\nBurnout is a real struggle for writers, and sometimes your brain needs a break from words. This would be a good time to break out a jigsaw puzzle, find fun in numbers with sudoku, or paint a picture. You can aim to strengthen your brain’s creative process while not having to worry about what to write for a while. \n\n•\tDeclutter your space to declutter your mind. \n\nWriter’s block can occur when you feel overwhelmed with the clutter of your home and your long list of things to do. Take the time to clean and organize your space, beginning with your work areas. Clear your to-do list of as much as you can to satisfy your brain’s anxiety over having so much to do. \n\n•\tSchedule a time to “meet” your muse. \n\nHarness your writing muse by scheduling specific times to write. If creativity strikes outside of those specific times, then great – write. If not, then don’t force yourself to come up with words that you don’t have. Stress puts strain on creativity. \n\nHopefully, these suggestions will help you overcome writer’s block, or at least inspire you to come up with methods for getting your creativity back. Good luck! \n", "role": "assistant" } ]

Please finish each tweet with one to five hashtags relevant to the tweet.\n\n Bruce Cassidy saw a lot of the Florida Panthers when he was coaching the Boston Bruins from 2016-22.\n\nBut the Vegas Golden Knights coach knows he'll see a different Florida team in the 2023 Stanley Cup Final, starting with Game 1 at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday (8 p.m. ET; TNT, TBS, truTV, CBC, SN, TVAS).\n\n\"Obviously we've got our hands full,\" Cassidy said Wednesday.\n\nThe Panthers won the Presidents' Trophy as the NHL's best regular-season team in 2021-22 and defeated the Washington Capitals in six games in the Eastern Conference First Round, winning a Stanley Cup Playoff series for the first time since 1996.\n\nBut after the Tampa Bay Lightning swept them in the second round, they made significant changes to become more of a playoff-style team this season, most notably hiring coach Paul Maurice on June 22 and acquiring forward Matthew Tkachuk in a trade with the Calgary Flames exactly one month later.\n\nThe adjustment was among the reasons they struggled the first half of the regular season. But after a 4-2 loss at Vegas on Jan. 12, which dropped them to 19-20-4, they went 23-12-4 and earned the second wild card in the East. In the playoffs, they have defeated three of the top four teams in the regular season standings: the Bruins (first), Carolina Hurricanes (second) and Toronto Maple Leafs (fourth).\n\n\"The biggest thing I've noticed is, the rush game used to kill you [against Florida],\" Cassidy said. \"If you could shut that down, you'd probably be able to outwill them to get to the front of the net, different areas like that.\"\n\nThe Panthers now create more offense below the goal line, getting pucks deep, forechecking and going to the net front.\n\nTkachuk is a big part of that. He has 21 points (nine goals, 12 assists) in 16 games, second in the playoffs behind Dallas Stars center Roope Hintz, who had 24 points (10 goals, 14 assists) in 19 games. Tkachuk has four game-winning goals, tied for first in the postseason with Stars forward Joe Pavelski, including three overtime goals, most in the playoffs.\n\nCassidy said Tkachuk has a high hockey IQ and will challenge the Golden Knights on small-area plays.\n\n\"We have to find a way to take away his time and space, yet take away his options, because he moves the puck so quick, so that's going to be a delicate balance,\" Cassidy said. \"And you've got to get into him when he gets to the front of the net. We know that. He's got a great stick and nose for the net. We have some big 'D' that can do that.\"\n\nTkachuk (6-foot-2, 201 pounds) will battle with Vegas defensemen Nicolas Hague (6-6, 230), Brayden McNabb (6-4, 215), Alec Martinez (6-1, 210), Alex Pietrangelo (6-3, 215), Shea Theodore (6-2, 197) and Zach Whitecloud (6-2, 207).", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Tweet 1: Cassidy has seen a lot of the Panthers from his time coaching in Boston from 2016-2022.

The home was built in 1777 by a group of masons who were hired by the Black and Rose families to construct a virtually indestructible home that would serve as a dwelling and safe house for the endangered children of the two families. The Black and Rose families were in trouble with neighboring families who sought to dissuade the children of the two families from getting married and forming a dynastic family that would rule over all of the United Kingdom.\n\nThis building has five levels, each with two bedrooms, a chamber room, and a dining room. Also featured in this stone fortress is a torture room, located in the bowels of the home away from prying eyes. The torture room was used by the Black Rose family to persuade their enemies to give up secret plans laid against them; some of the devices used in this room include the Iron Maiden, the Rack, and a flailing apparatus.\n\nIn 1820, however, the Manor was sacked by enemies, and the entire Black Rose family, from the adults down to the children, were slaughtered. The King and Queen of the Black Rose, Edgar and Eunice, were taken into their torture chamber and suffered at the hands of the enemy Manford clan before being left for dead in a poorly-ventilated cell beneath the building.\n\nOver the years, visitors to the Black Rose Manor reported multiple sightings of unusual phenomena around its halls, including ghostly apparitions, objects moving of their own accord, and the most unusual of them all: a feeling of absolute dread upon entering the torture chamber. \n\nNow, you are all welcome to join me in a walk down to the torture chamber - if you are brave enough!

She sighed and ran her hands through her ginger hair, which she kept cut into a curly faux mohawk. She checked the messages on her dating app, then dragged herself out of bed to start another day as an NYC waitress. As the pigeons outside cooed, she rolled her eyes and shut the window, thankful for reprieve and peace from those godforsaken singing birds. \n\n•\tSnow White felt the press of the prince’s lips on hers, urging her to wake from her poisoned slumber. She cracked her eyelids to get a good look at him, cringed internally, and pretended to snore. She intended to keep up the sleeping charade until the royal creeper left her alone. \n\n•\tSnow White was always a step ahead of her evil stepmother. She had been building her immune system against poisoned apples in anticipation of what the old, bitter woman may try next. Now was her chance for vengeance while the witch thought she had incapacitated Snow White. Gathering a crossbow and a bag of poisoned apples, she set off for her stepmother’s castle, smiling to herself as she heard the clop of hooves from the passing prince.

Lenny concentrated on the road but was able to keep an engaging conversation with Sally, who sat in the passenger's seat. \n\n\"I haven't been on this particular hike before, but I have read about it online and have been wanting to go.

When the code assigns solution = grid, it is generating a reference to the list of lists described by grid, and not creating a duplicate list of lists.

Therefore, when the code displays both the grid and the solution, it displays the same object twice.\n\nTo avoid the issue of modifications to the grid list affecting the solution, it's necessary to create a separate copy of the list.

If you've ever gotten so consumed in a task that you forget about the outside world and completely lose track of time, you were likely in a state of flow. It may be commonly referred to as being \"in the zone.\" “Flow” and “flow state” are both terms frequently used in psychology and happiness research. Achieving flow is different than daydreaming, but activates the same part of the brain called the default mode network (DMN). The brain is relaxed when daydreaming, or doing nothing essentially. Interestingly, even though the brain is putting in thoughtful effort in flow, it is enjoyable and relaxing to the brain rather than feeling like work. It actually suppresses anxiety and frees up other parts of the brain to make meaningful connections. \n\nAs the understanding of flow increases, more and more people are looking to see how they can achieve flow. Here are some things you can do to set yourself up to flow: \n\n1. Set clear goals: First, it’s important to have a defined goal involving the task at hand. A finite goal is more beneficial than a time-oriented goal, as it is more likely to emit a feeling of accomplishment once the goal is met, or the task is finished. \n2. Find things that are the right amount of challenging: If a task or activity is too difficult, it’s hard for the brain to be relaxed enough to be in a flow state. However, the brain needs enough challenge for the brain to see it as interesting and engaging. \n3. Create an environment for focus: This means doing what you need to do to eliminate distractions. This also includes carving out time to achieve flow where you know you won’t be interrupted. \n4. Don’t forget about self-care: Oftentimes in a flow state, people don’t feel thirsty or need to use the bathroom or end up sitting in the same position for a long period that’s not necessarily ergonomic friendly. In order to achieve longer-lasting flow states and take of yourself at the same time, invest the time or energy into getting set up right by doing things like having water readily available or sitting in a proper ergonomic chair. \n5. Put away your phone: This deserves a category in itself because our phones can be the biggest distraction. Turn it off, switch it on do not disturb, or keep it out of sight. Do whatever you need to do to not be tempted to pick up your phone. \n6. Develop a pre-flow ritual: This can involve a number of things like checking your email and messages before tuning in to your work or activity, putting on a designated playlist, doing jumping jacks, etc. It’s more about whatever works for you to clear your mind and set you up for focus. \n7. Get to know yourself: It may take a bit of trial and error to find what works best for you to achieve flow. You can’t enjoy everything, but you can make most things enjoyable by knowing what motivates you and helps you get into a state of flow. \n\nPsychology experts have determined that flow is associated with increased dopamine, which plays a huge role in regulating mood and motivation. It's also been determined that you can go in and out of flow and have multiple flow states per day, but 90-120 minutes is an optimal flow state for many people. It’s good to want to achieve flow as often as possible in whatever you are doing for overall health and well-being. ", "role": "assistant" } ]

However, it was not until 1848 that gold mining really kicked off.\n\nIn 1848, James Marshall—a carpenter and sawmill operator—went down to the American River in Coloma to inspect progress on a sawmill under construction, and saw something that defined the future of California’s economy.\n\n“My eye was caught by something shining in the bottom of the ditch. . . . I reached my hand down and picked it up; it made my heart thump, for I was certain it was gold. . . Then I saw another.”\n\n— James Marshall via Library of Congress.\n\nAs word spread, thousands of prospectors and gold-seekers made their way to California in search of their own shiny nuggets in an event now known as the Gold Rush. In fact, the influx of migrants was so large that they came to be known as the “forty-niners”, named after the year they started arriving. By 1855, miners had extracted over 12 million ounces of gold, and the Gold Rush neared its end.\n\nOver a century later, in 1968, “the Golden State” became California’s official nickname for both its prolific gold discoveries and golden poppy fields. By this time, most historical gold mines had ceased operations, but for California’s mining industry, it was just the beginning.\n\nMining in California Today\nAlthough California is well-known for Hollywood and Silicon Valley, it remains one of the most important states for mining in the country.\n\nAs of 2018, there were 739 mines in California producing 23 different commodities, from gold and rare earths to boron and construction minerals. Due to the industry’s size and significance, mining plays an important role in the Golden State’s economy.\n\nIn 2020, California’s mining industry generated:\n\n$7.3 billion in labor income\n$13.6 billion in GDP\n99,120 direct and indirect jobs\nMining companies in California benefit from access to clean energy, infrastructure, and well-established transport networks.

I find them to be a true danger to society and a horror for some.\n\nFirst and foremost, utilizing a child's toy as an object of fear is simply uncalled for. Children are often afraid of the dark, and when they are given a doll that seems to be watching them and looks terrifying, it can be traumatizing. This can create phobias and anxieties, and negatively impact a child's psychological development and mental health. \n\nAdditionally, the fear of creepy dolls is not unfounded. Scientific studies show that humans can have an innate fear of objects that resemble human faces but aren't alive. This psychological phenomenon is known as the \"uncanny valley\", and it can cause feelings of discomfort and even revulsion in people. When a doll crosses this line and becomes too realistic, it can cause this genuine fear and anxiety.\n\nMoreover, dolls have a significant cultural history of being associated with possession. Voodoo dolls, for example, are believed to have the power to manipulate someone's fate and physical presence. Similarly, the concept of a doll coming to life and attacking is a common reoccurring theme in horror stories. This leads to a distrust of dolls and reinforces the fear that dolls could be used for nefarious purposes. In recent years, there have even been several instances where dolls have been used as part of hoax threats or pranks, causing unnecessary alarm and panic. \n\nIn conclusion, the risks and horrors of creepy dolls cannot be underestimated. Some find them harmless or entertaining, but others can experience genuine fear, anxiety, and psychological harm. It is essential to be aware of these risks and limit the use of creepy dolls, especially dolls intended for children. It is also important to recognize the cultural and historical significance of dolls and the joy they bring to people. Let's stop allowing the damage of creepy dolls and stop their creation and use now.", "role": "assistant" } ]

He had a pretty solid playing career, winning one World Series. As a manager, he won a World Series too, and has also racked up over 2,000 wins.\n\nYet, I can’t shake the feeling that he gets too much credit. I bleed Cubby blue and I was never happier than when Dusty finally left the team. For me, those early 2000s years were the best years to be a Cubs fan and it was Dusty who ruined the era.\n\nThe players we had were all quite good and there was a huge buzz going into each season. Names like Sammy Sosa, Kerry Wood, and Mark Prior spring to mind and defined the team back then. The first year Dusty did lead them to a winning record and the postseason but after 2003 it was all downhill.\n\nThe team had the talent but they didn’t have the right manager. He misused the pitchers constantly and Mark Prior, one of the most promising pitching prospects in decades, had his career cut short due in large part to overwork. The same can be said of Kerry Wood who faced a similar fate. Baker became known for putting his pitchers under tremendous workloads and it just wore them down until they broke.\n\nThe Cubs were set up for years if not a decade of success with some of the best arms in the game and he destroyed them. He was not even very good with managing relievers, always preferring to stick to the old-school approach of going with his gut.\n\nThis is not the right approach for a manager. Even in the early 2000s, analytics were being used by teams to create a competitive advantage but Dusty refused. At one point he even made public comments that walking was bad because it clogged the bases. He just did not create an atmosphere conducive to success.\n\nIn the end, he only lasted 4 years with the Cubs and I am very glad for that. He spoiled the team’s chances of post-season success and it took them a decade to recover. I won’t forget Dusty at all, but I also won’t give him credit when the negatives under his leadership far outweigh any of the positives.", "role": "assistant" } ]

What is good to know is that the adult cast, a who's who of British actors, play their roles more or less as if they believed them.
