Information:
- The Kingdom of the Netherlands , commonly known as the Netherlands, is a sovereign state and constitutional monarchy with territory in western Europe and in the Caribbean.
- The Constitution for the Kingdom of the Netherlands is one of two fundamental documents governing the Kingdom of the Netherlands as well as the fundamental law of the European territory of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The present constitution is generally seen as directly derived from the one issued in 1815, constituting a constitutional monarchy. A revision in 1848 instituted a system of parliamentary democracy. In 1983, a major revision of the constitution was undertaken, almost fully rewriting the text and adding new civil rights. The text is very sober, devoid of legal or political doctrine. It includes a bill of rights. The constitution prohibits the judiciary to test laws and treaties against the constitution, as this is considered a prerogative of the legislature. There is no constitutional court in the Netherlands, except for the Constitutional Court of Sint Maarten which only governs the Sint Maarten legislator. The Kingdom of the Netherlands also includes Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten: there is an overarching instrument of the entire kingdom that has constitution characterisics: the Statute of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
- Amsterdam is the capital and most populous municipality of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Its status as the capital is mandated by the Constitution of the Netherlands, although it is not the seat of the government, which is The Hague. Amsterdam has a population of 847,176 within the city proper, 1,343,647 in the urban area, and 2,431,000 in the Amsterdam metropolitan area. The city is located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country. The metropolitan area comprises much of the northern part of the Randstad, one of the larger conurbations in Europe, with a population of approximately 7 million.
- Jacob Dircksz de Graeff (1579/1571 6 October 1636) was one of the most illustrious members of the De Graeff family. He was a powerful member of the States Faction, regent and mayor of Amsterdam after the political collapse of Reinier Pauw in 1627.
- The Amsterdam metropolitan area is the city region around the city of Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands. It lies in the Noordvleugel ("North Wing") of the larger polycentric Randstad metropolitan area and encompasses the city of Amsterdam, the Dutch provinces of North Holland and Flevoland, as well as 36 further municipalities within these two provinces, with a total population of over 2.4 million inhabitants.
- In many countries, a mayor (or , from the Latin "maior" , meaning "bigger") is the highest-ranking official in a municipal government such as that of a city or a town.
- Andries Bicker ( Amsterdam , 1586 -- Amsterdam ? , 24 June 1652 ) was a wealthy merchant on Moscovia , a member of the vroedschap , the leader of the Arminians , an administrator of the VOC , representative of the States - General of the Netherlands and colonel in the Civic guard . He controlled the city 's politics in close cooperation with his uncle Jacob Dircksz de Graeff an his brother Cornelis Bicker . The Bicker family was one of the oldest patrician families of Amsterdam - consisting of Andries ' father Gerrit , a grain merchant and beer brewer , and his three brothers , Jacob , Jan and Cornelis , had a firm grip on world trade , trading on the East , the West , the North and the Mediterranean . ( His uncle Laurens Bicker was one of the first to trade on Guinea and seized four Portuguese ships in 1604 ) . In 1646 , seven members of the Bicker family , called the Bicker 's league , simultaneously held some political position or other . The Bickers provided silver and ships to Spain , and were very much interested in ending the Eighty Years War . This brought them in conflict with the stadtholder , some provinces , like Zeeland and Utrecht , and the Reformed preachers .

Content: By Megha MohanBBC News, Kerala
It takes a seismic event to get a transglobal family together in one place. For mine, it was the death of my grandmother in Kerala.
She had been our collective anchor. My grandmother spoke five languages, so that she could communicate with all of her grandchildren, and knew exactly how everyone liked their tea. And everyone liked it differently, all with slightly different amounts of sugar.
Upon receiving the unexpected phone call, a sleepless night (pierced by even more phone calls) led to a hazy 40 hours which was broken up by a taxi, two planes, a few chocolate bars, a muted airport greeting and another car journey. By the time I arrived in Calicut, at the house where I had spent my childhood, there were only a few hours left until the funeral.
Someone made me a syrupy tea, which boosted my energy, and briefly, my mood. I made myself another two more.
Following the funeral, my aunt, who had travelled from America, asked me to take a walk with her. The oppression of the midday sun had subsided slightly, and if we stretched our legs, she said, we would feel better about the tea and sweets we could have when we got back home.
Calicut, where I was born, is a city on India's south-west coast. I often thought, with no authority other than nostalgic affection, that it looked like someone had cut roads into the middle of a lush forest. There's significantly less traffic than in many other cities in India. Coconut trees line the streets, as the Arabian Sea sparkles to the west and the Wayanad hills rise in the east.
During the 13th Century, Calicut became a major port for the Indian Ocean trade route. Merchants were said to manipulate the monsoon winds to transport spices, cotton - and sugar - from there to the West.
And as my aunt and I took our walk, we passed several street vendors. A man was pulping sugar canes into a drink.
Feeling slightly light-headed, I was tempted to buy one when something else caught my eye.
On the side of the road, under a papaya tree, a...\nThe previous content can be summarized as follows:

For clarity and comfort, these are the best sunglasses I have owned, apart from the same pair I had before them (only renewed due loosing them)Which I had for a couple of years without any problems or encountering anything like the previous reviewer. I have the Orange frames with green mirror lenses, they look good and used whilst driving long distances I dont suffer from eye fatigue as I did with my previous non costa sunglasses. I cant recommend these enough. And they are great on the water, so for fishermen, surfers, or any other water related pursuits, get yourself a pair.

Article in English: Runny noses are common in cats. If your cat has some nasal discharge around her nose, it may be mucus or muco-purulent, which is mucus stained with pus. These sorts of mucus are often yellow or green in color. Some cats with nasal allergies may have a clear, dripping discharge from their nostrils, but this can be difficult to spot if the cat regularly licks it away. If you see nasal discharge, look closely to see if it comes from one, or both nostrils. A bilateral discharge (from both sides) is more likely to be caused by an infection or allergy, while a unilateral (one sided) drip could be caused by a foreign body, or infection in one side of the nose. When humans have a blocked nose, we give it a good blow on a tissue. Cats, however, cannot do this and their way to clear their nose is to sneeze. If you notice that your cat sneezes a lot, you will need to schedule an appointment with your vet to determine the cause. It might be allergies or an infection, but your veterinarian will have to test your cat’s mucus to be sure. Cats often suffer from nasal congestion because of rhinitis (inflammation in the nasal passages that produces mucus), infection (including viral conditions such as cat flu) and because of inhaled foreign bodies (such as a grass awn that shot up the nose when the cat sniffed at it). The most common cause of nasal and sinus congestion are viral infections. These viruses include feline herpesvirus (FVR) and feline calicivirus (FCV). These infections also cause swollen, red, and runny eyes along with mouth ulcers and salivation. You can help protect your cat from these viruses by keeping your cat’s vaccinations up-to-date and keeping your cats away from any cats that seem sick. The recurrent viral illnesses in cats suppress your cats immune system so that secondary, opportunistic and very damaging bacteria invade the area and cause more severe disease, discharge, and lack of appetite. Realize also that many times your kitty has 'cleared' the viral illness, but the more 'difficult to clear'...
Summary in English:
|
Watch out for nasal discharge. Pay attention to any sneezing. Identify the cause of nasal congestion.

Um rapaz que compartilha os traços do típico "macho alfa" pode agir às vezes com teimosia, impaciência e exigências, principalmente durante as discussões. Caso ele comece a praticar tais comportamentos negativos, é importante que você não seja submissa. Mantenha a calma e defenda o seu lado. Se necessário, retire-se da discussão, mas não ceda com facilidade. Some scripts you might use include: "Já percebi que não vamos chegar em lugar algum hoje. Amanhã continuamos essa conversa." "Eu sei que não concordamos nisso, mas existem alguns motivos pelos quais eu acredito que estou certa." "Fico feliz que encontramos um meio termo, mas não estou disposta a abrir mão do meu lado. É importante que você também abra concessões se eu for fazer isso também". Tome cuidado caso o rapaz aja com agressividade, quebrando coisas, fazendo ameaças ou elevando a voz para você. Trata-se de um comportamento inaceitável. Você merece coisa melhor. Largue a situação imediatamente caso sinta-se ameaçada. Deixe claro que as ações do rapaz são inaceitáveis e procure ajuda externa de uma amiga ou das autoridades. No geral, as pessoas ficam felizes no relacionamentos quando há uma estrutura de poder igualitária onde ambos os parceiros compartilham as tarefas, têm o mesmo peso na hora de decisões importantes e têm trabalhos equivalentes. Tais relacionamentos têm menos chances de terminar em términos. Por mais que os relacionamentos igualitários sejam mais bem-sucedidos no longo prazo, eles podem acabar reduzindo a libido e a paixão sexual. Se você sente atração pela dominação, encontre jeitos de fazer com que o rapaz a expresse sem que isso impacte as suas capacidades de decisão no cotidiano. Por exemplo, você pode: Introduzir brincadeiras de representação de papéis durante o sexo. Discuta suas preferências e limitações com antecedência. É importante que vocês tenham uma palavra de segurança para interromper a brincadeira a qualquer momento. Encontrar válvulas de escape para representar papéis de gênero mais tradicionais.

I'm trying to distill these articles down into one:
Article: (CNN) Michael, now a Category 1 hurricane slashing Cuba, is forecast to be a "dangerous major hurricane" when it smacks the US Gulf Coast on Wednesday, the National Hurricane Center said.
The forecast indicates Michael may be a Category 3 hurricane -- with winds from 111 to 129 mph -- when it strikes.
"Life-threatening storm surge is possible along portions of the Florida Gulf Coast regardless of the storm's exact track or intensity," the center said. "Well-built framed homes may incur major damage or removal of roof decking and gable ends. Many trees will be snapped or uprooted, blocking numerous roads. Electricity and water will be unavailable for several days to weeks after the storm passes."
Floridians scurried to prepare after Gov. Rick Scott expanded a state of emergency declaration to include 35 counties and activated 1,250 National Guardsmen for hurricane duty.
#Michael could produce three life-threatening hazards along portions of the northeastern Gulf Coast: storm surge, heavy rainfall, and hurricane-force winds, with storm surge and hurricane watches in effect. Residents in these areas should follow advice given by local officials. pic.twitter.com/JZENNHSQTK
"Heavy rainfall from Michael could produce life-threatening flash flooding from the Florida Panhandle and Big Bend region into portions of the Carolinas through Thursday," the hurricane center said.
Michael has undergone a period of "rapid intensification" -- defined as an increase of sustained winds of 35 mph in a 24-hour period. The storm went from 40 mph on Sunday to 75 mph on Monday and is expected to undergo rapid intensification again in the next 24 hours.
The Category 1 hurricane now has maximum sustained winds of 90 mph. A Category 2 hurricane has sustained winds of 96 to 110 mph . Storms with winds of at least 111 mph are designated as "major" hurricanes.
Late Monday, Michael's center was about 485 miles south of Panama City, Florida and 450 miles south of Apalachicola, with the storm moving northward at...

MIAMI (AP) — Michael gained new strength over warm tropical waters amid fears it would swiftly intensify into a major hurricane before striking Florida's northeast Gulf Coast, where frantic coastal dwellers are boarding up homes and seeking evacuation routes away from the dangerous storm heading their way.
A hurricane hunter plane that bounced into the swirling eye of Michael off the west tip of Cuba late Monday found wind speeds were rising even as forecasters warned the storm could reach major hurricane status with winds topping 111 mph (179 kph) by Tuesday night. Anticipated landfall is expected Wednesday on the northeast Gulf Coast, where authorities warned of a potentially devastating strike.
By early Tuesday, Michael's top sustained winds had risen some to 90 mph (144 kph) as it headed north at 12 mph (19 kph). The storm was centered about 390 miles (627 kilometers) south of Apalachicola and 420 miles (675 kilometers) south of Panama City, Florida. Hurricane-force winds extended outward up to 35 miles (56 kilometers) from the core and tropical-storm-force winds out 175 miles (280 kilometers). Hurricane-force winds extended outward up to 40 miles (64 kilometers) from the core and tropical-storm-force winds out 195 miles (313.81 kilometers). Michael was lashing western Cuba on Monday with heavy rains and strong winds.
Forecasters warned that Michael, now a Category 1 storm, could dump up to a foot (30 centimeters) of rain in western Cuba,...

The Florida Panhandle is bracing for Hurricane Michael, which has undergone what forecasters call "rapid intensification" and is now threatening to hit the region as a Category 3 storm Wednesday morning. Gov. Rick Scott called the storm a "monster" Monday night and warned that we "haven’t seen anything like this in the Panhandle in decades," the Pensacola Journal reports. The storm's effects will be felt on the Gulf Coast as soon as Tuesday night, and a state of emergency has now been declared in 35 counties, with evacuations ordered in some areas. Alabama is under a statewide emergency declaration. "This storm has the potential to bring devastating impacts to communities across the Panhandle and Big Bend and every family must be prepared," Scott said, warning that Tampa and other areas could see "life-threatening" storm surges of up to 12 feet. The National Hurricane Center says Michael, classed as a Category 1 storm Monday night, is expected to be a "dangerous major hurricane" by Wednesday, reports CNN. The AP reports that the storm, combined with a Pacific low pressure system, has already killed at least 13 people in El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua, and could trigger landslides by dumping up to a foot of rain on western Cuba.

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article.
Article: Breakthroughs in science and technology are paving the way for modern cities to support bigger populations. Now, we see the most exciting urban innovations to show you exactly how they'll improve your city's infrastructure .
Lighting Up The Night
Anthony Di Mari dreamed up an electric tree to help irrigate public parks and light them at night. These electric trees contain a special infill that collects water from rainfall. The water is then distributed through a shallow underground irrigation system with the help from the trees' swaying movement. An electric motor turns energy from the waving of the artificial trees into electricity, which is used to light up the trees' outer LEDs.
Thinking Outside The Box
As more people flock to urban areas, city planners will need to get increasingly creative about how to satisfy residents' health and transportation needs within decreasing available space. One way to achieve this is by updating infrastructure to support biking and walking by building suspended roundabouts like hovering in the Netherlands. By lifting bicycle and pedestrian traffic above busy roadways, cities can significantly decrease over-crowded traffic condition.
Waving Hello To Clean Energy
Cities that don't receive enough sunlight may find an attractive alternative in wave power. Since ocean waves rarely experience disruption , electric engines driven by their clockwork push-and-pull can reliably provide power throughout the year. Further, thanks to advances in wave power technology, engineers have been able to move wave power engines farther offshore, where the waves pack the most punch, making the engines extremely efficient. So in the future, heavily populated coastal cities may use wave to meet their energy needs.
Question: How do the Netherlands improve the city traffic according to the text?
Options: A: By updating the city roadway condition.
B: By building walking passages underground.
C: By creating suspended roundabouts above roadways.
D: By supporting more biking and walking.

Review: I was fascinated with the idea that my 18 month old would like this toy, but he didn't. He looked at it once, and never again. It got more use as a stepping stool in the kitchen than it did as a play toy. I found it complicated for a 1-2 year old to figure out, and boring for a 3-4 year old to play with. I have since passed it on to relatives.

Earth processes have not changed over time. The way things happen now is the same way things happened in the past. Mountains grow and mountains slowly wear away. The same process is at work the same as it was billions of years ago. As the environment changes, living creatures adapt. They change over time. Some organisms may not be able to adapt. They become extinct. Becoming extinct means they die out completely. Some geologists study the history of the Earth. They want to learn about Earths past. They use clues from rocks and fossils. They use these clues to make sense of events. The goal is to place things in the order they happened. They also want to know how long it took for those events to happen.

Generate a news article that can be summarized as "Five-time Olympic champion Sir Bradley Wiggins will not attend next week's Olympic and Paralympic celebrations of Britain's success at Rio 2016.". Article:
|
A parade through the streets of Manchester will be held on 17 October, and there will be another event in London the following day.
Wiggins' representatives said his absence was not unusual as he has not attended such an event since 2004.
The 36-year-old has also pulled out of a race in Abu Dhabi later this month.
Organisers of the Abu Dhabi Tour expressed their "surprise and disappointment" that the 2012 Tour de France winner would not be competing in the four-day race, which starts on 20 October.
Wiggins, Britain's most decorated Olympian, is at the centre of controversy surrounding the use of therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs).
The issue of TUEs, which allow athletes to use banned substances if they have genuine medical need, has been in the news since a number of Olympic athletes had their private data stolen from a World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) database by a group of hackers calling themselves The Fancy Bears.
Media playback is not supported on this device
Wiggins has denied any wrongdoing, insisting he was not trying to gain an "unfair advantage" from being allowed to used a banned steroid before major races.

My college roommate asked me what this article means:
It follows The Mirror's report the soap was "in chaos" after 81-year-old Knox was forced to miss a "crucial rehearsal" after falling ill.
But assistant producer Ella Kelly told BBC Radio 5 Live they had spoken to the actress today, and she is taking part.
The special live episode is to help celebrate ITV's 60th anniversary.
Coronation Street last broadcast a live episode to mark its own 50th anniversary in 2010, attracting more than 14 million viewers.
Kelly told 5 Live's Afternoon Edition with Dan Walker and Sam Walker on Tuesday that the cast and crew were all in "fine form" and "poised for the run-through tonight".
She added: "There's just such a buzz in the building. All the actors in one space is just amazing."
Kelly also spoke about last week's announcement that producer Stuart Blackburn will be leaving at the end of the year, and is being replaced by Emmerdale's Kate Oakes.
"There's no surprise, it's something that happens as part of these shows that people reach the end of their tenure," said Kelly, adding: "We're really sad to see Stuart go."
"He's just seen a wonderful exit for Hayley which brought regularly over 10 million viewers, which is incredible, and two Baftas for us... So it's all mixed emotions really," she said.
When questioned by TV reviewer Kevin O'Sullivan, who was also a guest on 5 Live, Kelly denied the timing of the announcement was "incendiary", coming just ahead of the live episode.
"I think it was absolutely a sensible thing to do, because there [were] obviously lots of rumours about who's going to take over... as always happens after a period of two-and-a-half, three years," she said.
"It felt like it was much better to announce that, and for us all to hear it first, and announce that properly, and then just get on with doing the live and have a fantastic event."
She added she hoped negative press coverage, which has suggested cast members were celebrating the end of Blackburn's tenure, would "go away", adding, "it's all such nonsense".
Kelly said fans could expect "lots of...
So I recapped it in layman's terms:

Can you write an outline of the following article in a few points?
Article: (CNN) -- When Kate Middleton walked down the aisle and into the British Royal Family last year, she lifted the spirits of nation mired in economic gloom. Now, 19 months after marrying Prince William, the couple has given the country -- and the Commonwealth -- another reason to celebrate. On Monday, the palace announced that the couple is expecting a baby, though the Duchess of Cambridge had been admitted to hospital with severe morning sickness. Latest: William and Catherine expecting royal child . The woman carrying the next in line to the British throne after William is the daughter of self-made millionaires from rural England. Catherine, 30, grew up in a small village of thatched cottages in Bucklebury, around 45 miles west of London. One of three children, Catherine completed her schooling as a boarder at the prestigious Marlborough College before taking a degree in History of Art at St. Andrew's University in Fife, Scotland, in 2001. It was there that she met Prince William, then the 19-year-old son of Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, and Princess Diana. Both were studying art history when they met, but Catherine is said to have played a key role in encouraging the prince to switch to a degree in Geography in his second year. The students grew closer after moving into a shared house with two other friends and were said to have started dating in late 2003. Their status as a couple was made public in March 2004 when they were photographed holidaying together in the Swiss ski resort of Klosters. Their relationship attracted intense media interest and the following year her lawyers filed their first official complaint about media intrusion. Catherine and William baby news sparks media frenzy . Such was the level of media interest in the girl "who could be Queen" that in 2007, the Guardian newspaper reported that Catherine "ran the gauntlet of more than 20 press photographers and five television crew as she emerged from her flat."

Read the following article and select the best answer.
Article: If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak, and when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed, and few of us know that it is just his own fault . Have you ever found that some people can't read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and when they have to remember things, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. As a result, they have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.
Question: Few people know that if someone has a poor memory it is _ .
- his own fault
- his parents' fault
- his teachers' fault

"I thought long and hard about it, " Redmayne said. "I heard it was breathtaking. I knew myself well enough to know that if I watched it I'd try to steal little bits."
Redmayne, 32, plays Hawking in The Theory of Everything, which is out early next year.
The film follows the professor's life at Cambridge University in the early 1960s, when he meets his first wife Jane Wilde, played by Felicity Jones, and is diagnosed with motor neurone disease and given two years to live.
Redmayne's friend Cumberbatch played the scientist in BBC TV film Hawking in 2004, for which he received a Bafta nomination for best actor.
Redmayne, whose own portrayal is being tipped for an Oscar nomination next month, said he still hadn't seen "old pal" Cumberbatch's film, but that he planned to watch it soon.
He added that the pair had recently "exchanged stories" about what it was like for them to meet the real Stephen Hawking, who is now 72.
Redmayne told the BBC he first met Hawking at the scientist's Cambridge home last year, just a few days before he started shooting The Theory of Everything. The actor had already undertaken four months of research which included meeting people with motor neurone disease.
"He'd gone from icon to idol status in my mind by this point," the actor said.
"He has a real force of charisma and humour and incisive wit and a sense of mischief. I describe him as a lord of misrule. Even though it's difficult for him to communicate he's absolutely in charge of a room."
Redmayne said that they exchanged "maybe eight or nine sentences" in three hours because Hawking communicates by using a muscle near his eye to pick out letters on a screen.
The actor said he'd pointed out that they both had birthdays close to each other in January and they were both Capricorns.
"[Stephen] looked at me and then he looked at his screen and spent about 10 minutes responding. And then in his iconic voice he said: 'I am an astronomer, not an astrologer.'"
The Theory of Everything, directed by James Marsh, is out in the UK on 1 January.

(CNN) -- Horror-meister, Stephen King calls George Pelecanos "perhaps the greatest living American crime writer." His stories are set in Pelecanos' hometown of Washington, D.C., but this is not the side of the U.S. capitol that you see portrayed on TV with white marble monuments, lawyers and lobbyists. Pelecanos is more interested in working families struggling to get by, the racial tensions in its ethnic neighborhoods and the low-lifes on the edges. His crime-writing peers call Pelecanos the "undisputed poet" of Washington's gritty side. The best-selling and award-winning author is out this week with his 17th and latest novel, "The Cut." It's the first in a new series featuring Iraq war veteran and private investigator Spero Lucas. When he's not working for a Washington defense attorney, Lucas recovers stolen property for a 40% cut. Now, a high-profile crime boss hires Lucas to find out who's been stealing from him, and it could turn out to be Lucas' biggest payday or an untimely end. While Pelecanos made his bones in the noir tradition, there's a definite "Western" feel to "The Cut." The new novel takes place in a morally gray and often violent world. It's peppered with pitch-perfect dialogue and captures the sights, sounds and taste of Washington in rich detail. In short, Pelecanos reads like the real deal. Pelecanos knows a thing or two about capturing the authenticity of urban America with an ethnically and socially diverse cast. In addition to his success as a novelist, Pelecanos is a producer and writer for HBO's New Orleans-set, "Treme." He was previously a producer and Emmy-nominated writer on the hit series "The Wire" and the miniseries "The Pacific." Read an excerpt from "The Cut" CNN recently spoke to Pelecanos about his new novel. The following is an edited transcript. CNN: Tell me more about your new character, Spero Lucas.

Given the title <<Revolver>> and the question <<What does Sam gold represent ?>>, write a movie story:
|
Dorothy Macha (Ray Liotta) is a gang boss involved in illegal gambling all over the city. With the help of three goons, known as "the three Eddies", he controls several games that take place in the underground. On one occasion, just before a big game, Macha loses his card man. With no chances left, Macha asks for help of Jake Green (Jason Statham), a card man with a good reputation underground. When Jake refuses, they harass Jake's brother, Billy (Andrew Howard), and Billy's family to convince Jake to play. He succumbs and plays the game, which he ends up winning. The loser, a high roller named George, insults Jake's mother and Jake responds by shooting him in the foot, igniting a gunfight in which the game's money vanishes.
Two weeks later, Jake's name is mentioned and he is brought in for questioning by the police. Taking precautionary measures, Macha sends the three Eddies to Billy's house where they threaten his niece. Billy's wife reacts poorly in the situation and is accidentally shot. Jake does not give Macha's name to the police to protect Billy and his family and ends up sentenced to prison. He is given a choice to either spend 14 years in general prison population or 7 years in solitary confinement. He chooses the latter.
During his seven-year stint imprisoned in solitary confinement Jake learns of a specific strategy (referred to as "The Formula") that is supposed to lead its user to win every game. The Formula itself was discovered by two unnamed men who inhabited adjacent cells on either side of Jake's own. They are referred to as a chess expert and a con man. During the first five years of his seven-year sentence, the three men communicated their thoughts on confidence tricks and chess moves via messages hidden inside library books, such as The Mathematics of Quantum Mechanics.
The chess expert and the con man plan to leave their cells simultaneously, and promise to take Jake with them. But when they disappear from their cells, they leave Jake behind to serve the remaining two years of his...

Information:
- Tårnby is a town in Denmark, the seat of Tårnby Municipality in the Capital Region of Denmark. It is located approximately south of Copenhagen on the island of Amager. Neighbouring settlements include the Copenhagen suburb of Sundbyvester to the north and Kastrup to the south. Copenhagen Airport is situated to the east of Tårnby. It includes the islets Saltholm and Peberholm.
- Christianshavn is a neighbourhood in Copenhagen, Denmark. Part of the Indre By District, it is located on the island of Amager and separated from the rest of the city centre by the Inner Harbour. It was founded in the early 17th century by Christian IV as part of his extension of the fortifications of Copenhagen. Originally, it was laid out as an independent privileged merchant's town with inspiration from Dutch cities but it was soon incorporated into Copenhagen proper. Dominated by canals, it is the part of Copenhagen with the most nautical atmosphere.
- The Øresund/Öresund/Oresund Bridge (, , hybrid name: "") is a combined railway and motorway bridge across the Øresund strait between Sweden and Denmark. The bridge runs nearly from the Swedish coast to the artificial island Peberholm in the middle of the strait. The crossing is completed by the Drogden Tunnel from Peberholm to the Danish island of Amager.
- Kastrup is a suburb of Copenhagen, Denmark, situated on the east coast of Amager in Tårnby Municipality. It is best known as the site of Copenhagen Airport. In Danish, the airport is often called "Kastrup Lufthavn" (Kastrup Airport) or "Københavns Lufthavn, Kastrup" (Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup). The population of Kastrup is approximately 43 000.
- Beech ("Fagus") is a genus of deciduous trees in the family Fagaceae, native to temperate Europe, Asia and North America. Recent classification systems of the genus recognize ten to thirteen species in two distinct subgenera, "Engleriana" and "Fagus". The "Engleriana" subgenus is found only in East Asia, and is notably distinct from the "Fagus" subgenus in that these beeches are low-branching trees, often made up of several major trunks with yellowish bark. Further differentiating characteristics include the whitish bloom on the underside of the leaves, the visible tertiary leaf veins, and a long, smooth cupule-peduncle. "Fagus japonica", "Fagus engleriana", and the species "F. okamotoi", proposed by the botanist Chung-Fu Shen in 1992, comprise this subgenus. The better known "Fagus" subgenus beeches are high-branching with tall, stout trunks and smooth silver-grey bark. This group includes "Fagus sylvatica", "Fagus grandifolia", "Fagus crenata", "Fagus lucida", "Fagus longipetiolata", and "Fagus hayatae". The classification of the European beech, "Fagus sylvatica" is complex, with a variety of different names proposed for different species and subspecies within this region (for example "Fagus taurica", "Fagus orientalis", and "Fagus moesica"). Research suggests that beeches in Eurasia differentiated fairly late in evolutionary history, during the Miocene. The populations in this area represent a range of often overlapping morphotypes, though genetic analysis does not clearly support separate species.
- Sweden, officially the Kingdom of Sweden (Swedish: ), is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe. It borders Norway to the west and Finland to the east, and is connected to Denmark in the southwest by a bridge-tunnel across the Öresund. At , Sweden is the third-largest country in the European Union by area, with a total population of 10.0 million. Sweden consequently has a low population density of , with the highest concentration in the southern half of the country. Approximately 85% of the population lives in urban areas.
- Zealand is the largest (7,031 km) and most populated island in Denmark with a population of 2,267,659 (39% of Denmark's total as of January 2016).
- Scandinavia is a historical and cultural region in Northern Europe characterized by a common ethnocultural North Germanic heritage and mutually intelligible North Germanic languages.
- Amager (or, especially among older speakers) is a Danish island in the Øresund. The Danish capital, Copenhagen, is partly situated on Amager, which is connected to the much larger island of Zealand by five bridges. Amager also has a connection across the Øresund to Sweden, the Øresund Bridge. Its western part begins with a tunnel from Amager to another Danish island, Peberholm. Copenhagen Airport is located on the island, around from Copenhagen city centre. Amager is the largest island in the Øresund, and the only one with a large population. , 192,709 people live on the island, including its northern tip, Christianshavn. The northern part is included in the Copenhagen municipality. The middle part comprises Tårnby municipality, and Dragør municipality is located on the southeast part of the island. Most of the western part is land that was reclaimed from the sea from the 1930s-1950s. This enlargement, from the shallow sound towards Zealand, is known as "Kalveboderne". The enlargement has never been built-up and its soil isn't suitable for agricultural use. However the area between Dragør town and the airport is cultivated land of high quality. Amager has in the past been referred to as the "kitchen of Copenhagen". At the border of the enlargement there is an old beech forest, "Kongelunden" (The King's Grove).
- Øresund or Öresund is a strait which forms the DanishSwedish border,
separating Sjælland (Denmark) from Skåne (Sweden).
The strait has a length of and the width varies from to . It is wide at its narrowest point between Helsingør in Denmark and Helsingborg in Sweden.
- Dragør is the main town and the seat of the municipal council of Dragør Municipality, (Denmark), which includes the village of Store Magleby.
- Copenhagen Metro is a 24/7 rapid transit system in Copenhagen, Denmark, serving the municipalities of Copenhagen, Frederiksberg, and Tårnby.
- Frederiksberg is a part of the Capital Region of Denmark. It is formally an independent municipality (town), Frederiksberg Municipality, but is typically treated as a part of Copenhagen. It occupies an area of less than 9 km and had a population of 103,192 in 2015.
- Denmark is a Scandinavian country in Europe. The southernmost and smallest of the Nordic countries, it is south-west of Sweden and south of Norway, and bordered to the south by Germany. The Kingdom of Denmark is the sovereign state that comprises Denmark proper and two autonomous constituent countries in the North Atlantic Ocean: the Faroe Islands and Greenland. Denmark has a total area of , and a population of 5.7 million. The country consists of a peninsula, Jutland, and an archipelago of 443 named islands, with the largest being Zealand and Funen. The islands are characterised by flat, arable land and sandy coasts, low elevation and a temperate climate.
- The Øresund or Öresund Region is a transnational metropolitan area in northern Europe, centred around the Øresund strait and the two cities which lie on either side, Copenhagen, Denmark and Malmö, Sweden. The region is connected by the Øresund Bridge, which spans the strait at its southern end, and the HH Ferry route between Elsinore, Denmark (Danish: "Helsingør") and Helsingborg, Sweden at the narrowest point of the strait.
- Copenhagen (, ); ) is the capital and most populated city of Denmark. It has a municipal population of 591,481 and a larger urban population of 1,280,371. The Copenhagen metropolitan area has just over 2 million inhabitants. The city is situated on the eastern coast of the island of Zealand; another small portion of the city is located on Amager, and is separated from Malmö, Sweden, by the strait of Øresund. The Øresund Bridge connects the two cities by rail and road.
- Lufthavnen Station ( The Airport Station ) is a rapid transit station of the Copenhagen Metro , located at Copenhagen Airport on the island of Amager . The station is the terminus of the M2 line and is located in fare zone 4 . Trains approach the station by a bridge over the Øresund Motorway ( E20 ) . The platform area is constructed above the tracks of the Øresund Line adjoining a multi-storey car park . The station connects to the airport at the north end of Terminal 3 on level 2 . Intercity trains operate out of the Copenhagen Airport , Kastrup Station which is located beneath the airport terminal building .
- Scania, also known by its local name Skåne (or in the regional dialect), is the southernmost province ("landskap") of Sweden which consists of a peninsula on the southern tip of the Scandinavian Peninsula and some islands close to it. Scania is roughly equivalent to the modern Skåne County ("Skåne län"). The responsibility for overseeing implementation of state policy in the county is administered by the County Administrative Board. Within Scania there are 33 municipalities that are independent and separate from the Scania Regional Council which has its seat in Kristianstad. The largest city is Malmö, which is also the third largest city in Sweden.
- Europe is a continent that comprises the westernmost part of Eurasia. Europe is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. To the east and southeast, Europe is generally considered as separated from Asia by the watershed divides of the Ural and Caucasus Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian and Black Seas, and the waterways of the Turkish Straits. Yet the non-oceanic borders of Europea concept dating back to classical antiquityare arbitrary. The primarily physiographic term "continent" as applied to Europe also incorporates cultural and political elements whose discontinuities are not always reflected by the continent's current overland boundaries.
- Peberholm ("Pepper Islet"), is a small artificial island in the Danish part of the Øresund strait, created as part of the Øresund Bridge connecting Denmark with Sweden. Peberholm is close to the small natural island of Saltholm ("Salt Islet"), and was named to complement it.
- An international airport is an airport that offers customs and immigration facilities for passengers travelling between countries. International airports are typically larger than domestic airports and often feature longer runways and facilities to accommodate the heavier aircraft commonly used for international and intercontinental travel. International airports often also host domestic flights. Some, such as Frankfurt Airport in Germany are very large; others such as Fa'a' International Airport in Tahiti, are quite small.
- Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup or Copenhagen Airport is the main international airport serving Copenhagen, Denmark, the entire Zealand, the Øresund Region, and a large part of southern Sweden (not only Scania). It is the largest airport in the Nordic countries with 29 million passengers in 2016 and one of the oldest international airports in Europe. It is the third-busiest airport in Northern Europe, and by far the busiest for international travel in Scandinavia.

The answer to the question: What volcano's summit has snow on it in the Summer? is inside the article: Mauna Kea is one of five volcanoes that form the island of Hawaii, the largest and youngest island of the Hawaiian–Emperor seamount chain. Of these five hotspot volcanoes, Mauna Kea is the fourth oldest and fourth most active. It began as a preshield volcano driven by the Hawaii hotspot around one million years ago, and became exceptionally active during its shield stage until 500,000 years ago. Mauna Kea entered its quieter post-shield stage 250,000 to 200,000 years ago, and is currently dormant. Mauna Kea does not have a visible summit caldera, but contains a number of small cinder and pumice cones near its summit. A former summit caldera may have been filled and buried by later summit eruption deposits.
Mauna Kea is over 32,000 km3 (7,680 cu mi) in volume, so massive that it and its neighbor, Mauna Loa, depress the ocean crust beneath it by 6 km (4 mi).
Mauna Kea is the only Hawaiian volcano with distinct evidence of glaciation. Similar deposits probably existed on Mauna Loa, but have been covered by later lava flows. Despite Hawaii's tropical location, during several past ice ages a drop of a degree in temperature allowed snow to remain at the volcano's summit through summer, triggering the formation of an ice cap. There are three episodes of glaciation that have been recorded from the last 180,000 years: the Pōhakuloa (180–130 ka), Wāihu (80–60 ka) and Mākanaka (40–13 ka) series. These have extensively sculpted the summit, depositing moraines and a circular ring of till and gravel along the volcano's upper flanks. Subglacial eruptions built cinder cones during the Mākanaka glaciation, most of which were heavily gouged by glacial action. The most recent cones were built between 9000 and 4500 years ago, atop the glacial deposits, although one study indicates that the last eruption may have been around 3600 years ago.At their maximum extent, the glaciers extended from the summit down to between 3,200 and 3,800 m (10,500 and 12,500 ft) of elevation. A small body of permafrost, less than 25 m (80 ft) across,..., can you guess it ?

I know that the answer to the question "What were Germanic coins made of after 800?" is in "The various Germanic states in the west all had coinages that imitated existing Roman and Byzantine forms. Gold continued to be minted until the end of the 7th century, when it was replaced by silver coins. The basic Frankish silver coin was the denarius or denier, while the Anglo-Saxon version was called a penny. From these areas, the denier or penny spread throughout Europe during the centuries from 700 to 1000. Copper or bronze coins were not struck, nor were gold except in Southern Europe. No silver coins denominated in multiple units were minted.". Can you tell me what it is?

1st impression\nenjoyed some high end Earl Gray tea. The tea is great and the shop has a comfortable Scandinavian ambiance. But why is this noteworthy? Although I live a few blocks away this section of Penn Ave has been blighted for some time. At this moment I am looking across the street at some boarded up store fronts that were tacked onto the front of a beautiful late 1800's Victorian. I wish them the best but I am not sure the foot traffic here is ready for $2 cups of coffee. But I love small business and I will do my part to help them make it. \n\n2nd impression\nMy wife and her friend (first time Voluto customer) had a bad experience today at Voluto Coffee. They went there with the kids (two 3.5 year olds and a 18 month old) and left pissed off. Obviously we understand that it is not particularly intended to be a kid friendly joint with the Scandinavian minimalist design. However it is in a family neighborhood and it was the middle of the day. So they got some coffee and treats and were hanging out for some time while the kids explored the shop.\n\nWhile they were there some people came and went. At one point a couple came in (younger hipster types) and stayed for half an hour, on the way out the man commented to the owner that she should control her customers???? The guy approached my wife and made some snide comments about watching kids run around while (not) enjoying his coffee - whatever - and that he was having a business meeting. I have had many business meetings in public places interruptions are the risk you run.\n\nAfter he left the owner (her name escapes me) came over and asked my wife and her friend to keep the kids from throwing things? I am sure they were not throwing things. I am sure they were moving around a lot and probably making some noise - but not too much. Basically we are not going to go to Voluto for a while. Eventually we will give them a second chance. I hope he is an advocate like I was, I go out of my way to promote local business, but I also believe strongly in...

Food and service were amazing! We went on Sunday before labor day with a large group (bachelorette party) and were seated without waiting too long, and the waitress split all our checks with no issues. The restaurant is clean and the style/decor is fresh. The food was yummy-- one of the best smoked salmon bene's i've had. the pickles in the bloody mary are also yummy!

First, read the Spanish article below.
Las propiedades purificadoras del limón junto con los efectos exfoliantes de la sal ayudan a eliminar todas las impurezas ubicadas en lo profundo de los poros. Mezcla jugo de limón con 1 cucharada de yogur, 1 cucharada de sal y un poco de miel. Aplícate este exfoliante sobre las zonas proclives a los puntos negros durante 2 a 3 minutos y luego enjuágate con agua tibia. El té verde es excelente como bebida, pero también es excelente para renovar la piel. Lleno de nutrientes, el exfoliante de té verde elimina las impurezas mientras deja la piel con antioxidantes saludables. Mezcla té verde fino con un poco de agua y aplícatelo sobre la cara. Si quieres, puedes dejarlo actuar de 2 a 3 minutos después de la exfoliación y luego solo debes enjuagarte con agua tibia. El bicarbonato de sodio es una de esas sustancias mágicas en la vida que son excelentes para una infinidad de cosas. Además de ser un limpiador natural, el grano fino del polvo es perfecto para quitar las células muertas. La harina de maíz se usa como exfoliante abrasivo cuando se la combina con jabón líquido facial. Agrega 1 cucharadita de harina de maíz a tu limpiador facial favorito y exfóliate la cara suavemente realizando movimientos circulares. Ten cuidado de no exfoliarte demasiado fuerte, ya que podrías dañarte la piel sin querer. Enjuágate el jabón y la harina con agua tibia. Quizá el exfoliante con mejor aroma, el ácido láctico de la leche mezclado con los gránulos duros de la nuez moscada quitan los puntos negros rápidamente y sin dolor. Mezcla 1 cucharada de leche (mejor si es suero de leche) con la cantidad necesaria de nuez moscada para formar una pasta. Aplícate esta mezcla sobre la cara mientras te exfolias suavemente para retirar las células muertas y las impurezas. Luego, usa agua tibia para enjuagarte. Si no quieres hacer tu propio exfoliante en casa, busca uno en tu tienda local de productos de belleza o farmacia. Úsalo de manera regular para ayudar a limpiar los poros y quitar los molestos puntos negros.

I am a movie director and I just received the following movie plot. Could you help me answer this question? If not, let me know by writing "Not answerable".
Plot title: Westworld
Movie plot: Sometime in the near future a high-tech, highly realistic adult amusement park called Delos features three themed "worlds"Â â West World (the American Old West), Medieval World (medieval Europe), and Roman World (the ancient Roman city of Pompeii). The resort's three "worlds" are populated with lifelike androids that are practically indistinguishable from human beings, each programmed in character for their assigned historical environment. For $1,000 per day, guests may indulge in any adventure with the android population of the park, including sexual encounters and even a fight to the death. Delos' tagline in its advertising promises, "Boy, have we got a vacation for you!"
Peter Martin (Benjamin), a first-time Delos visitor, and his friend John Blane (Brolin), on a repeat visit, go to West World. One of the attractions is the Gunslinger (Brynner), a robot programmed to instigate gunfights. The firearms issued to the park guests have temperature sensors that prevent them from shooting humans or anything with a high body temperature but allow them to 'kill' the cold-blooded androids. The Gunslinger's programming allows guests to draw their guns and kill it, with the robot always returning the next day for another duel.
The technicians running Delos notice problems beginning to spread like an infection among the androids: the robots in Roman World and Medieval World begin experiencing an increasing number of breakdowns and systemic failures, which are said to have spread to West World. When one of the supervising computer scientists scoffs at the "analogy of an infectious disease," he is told by the Chief Supervisor (Alan Oppenheimer), "We aren't dealing with ordinary machines here. These are highly complicated pieces of equipment, almost as complicated as living organisms. In some cases, they've been designed by other computers. We don't know exactly how they work."
The malfunctions become more serious when a robotic rattlesnake bites Blane in West World, and, against its programming, an android refuses a...

GAZA CITY, Gaza (CNN) -- Israeli forces fired on a U.N. aid convoy Thursday in Gaza, killing at least one contract worker and prompting the U.N. to halt some of its operations in Gaza, U.N. officials said. Palestinians distribute U.N. food aid Thursday in a refugee camp in southern Gaza. The U.N. has "lost confidence" in the Israeli military's attempts to allow humanitarian aid into the Palestinian territory, the U.N. Relief and Works Agency's director said. Meanwhile, the U.N. Security Council late Thursday overwhelmingly approved a resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza. Fourteen of the council's 15 members voted in favor of the resolution -- with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice abstaining from the vote.

Summarize this document: Mr Cameron, who is attending the World Economic Forum at Davos in Switzerland, said fracking was already "flooring" energy prices in the US, and could be a "fresh driver" of UK growth.
But government advisers say it may not lower UK energy prices much.
Opponents say fracking can cause water contamination and environmental damage.
Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, involves drilling deep underground and releasing a high-pressure mix of water, sand and chemicals to crack rocks and release gas stored inside.
The British Geological Survey estimates there may be 1,300 trillion cubic feet of shale gas present in the north of England.
Mr Cameron says this could deliver a large economic boost and ensure the supply of cheaper, more secure energy.
In his speech to political and business leaders, Mr Cameron said foreign investment was contributing to a turn-around in the UK economy.
But he argued the UK has to do more to encourage "re-shoring" - the return of businesses that have moved abroad to cut costs.
Q&A: What is fracking?Cuadrilla vows not to frack Balcombe
He said: "There is no doubt that when it comes to re-shoring in the US, one of the most important factors has been the development of shale gas, which is flooring US energy prices, with billions of dollars of energy cost-savings predicted over the next decade."
The prime minister called for a greater competitiveness, saying: "The key challenge for politicians and business leaders in Europe is how we make a success of globalisation.
"For years the West has been written off. People say that we are facing some sort of inevitable decline. They say we can't make anything any more.
"Whether it's the shift from manufacturing to services or the transfer from manual jobs to machines, the end point is the same dystopian vision - the East wins while the West loses; and the workers lose while the machines win. I don't believe it has to be this way.
"Of course, we shouldn't be starry-eyed about globalisation - it presents huge challenges as our economies and societies try...
Summary:

Shale gas extraction through fracking can boost the economy and encourage businesses to come back to the UK, Prime Minister David Cameron has said.

Given the title <<Capote>> and the question <<Who comitted the murders?>>, write a movie story:
|
Reading of the brutal murder of an entire family on a farm in Holcomb, Kansas, startles Truman Capote, a reporter for The New Yorker magazine, and he goes there to cover the story. What he finds is a murder without an identifiable motive, and, shortly thereafter, two men on death row for the murders who couldn't be more different. He befriends Perry, one of the two, and is befuddled to find an erudite, sensitive man, and Capote struggles to understand how such a man could be guilty of such crimes. Still, there is little doubt of Perry's guilt, for Dick, Perry's far less cultivated accomplice,has spoken of the murders in Capote's presence, though not admitting the murders were premeditated, and Perry makes no attempt to deny his participation.Capote is so troubled and fascinated by the murders that he resolves to write a book about the incident. The problem is that the quality of his book will suffer unless he can learn what really happened on the night the crimes took place, as he would be unable to answer the very question that compelled him to devote so much time and effort to studying the murders.Capote grows closer and closer to Perry, and their growing relationship and Capote's obsession with the successful completion of his project appear to motivate his attempt to intervene in the case and delay Perry's execution. In his prison visits to see Perry, he must delude him into believing that he is trying to get him a new trial and a fresh chance at acquittal. In truth, Capote's actions are self-serving, but the result is that he and Perry grow closer, and, eventually, Perry relates what really happened the night of the murders. An armed robbery went wrong, and the murders had been committed in the rage of the moment by Perry, who had been goaded by his accomplice, Dick, to kill all possible witnesses to their crime. Now in possession of the truth, Capote withdraws from the scene, perhaps understanding that the executions will now provide the final chapter of his book.Not long after, Perry and Dick are...

A roller coaster on the outside of a hotel? Unheard of. I have rode this coaster many times, but the last was quite scary! It was on 4th of July and there was lightning and thunder blazing in the horizon and I'm on the coaster already terrified of the speed and flips and turns and being so damn high in the air. The lightning and thunder just increased the thrill!

Title: Better than the old one, but . . .
Review: This beaker was the first replacement that I bought. I found that the replacement is a bit thicker and more durable than the original, and the price is not too unreasonable.What I REALLY wish is that Bodum would sell the unbreakable polycarbonate replacement beakers rather than requiring you to buy a whole new press. It would make them less money, but life would certainly be easier for the consumer.

Você não precisa de habilidades extraordinárias para saber manter uma conversa fiada. Use algumas perguntas simples para preencher os silêncios constrangedores: Se acabou de conhecer a pessoa: "Então, onde você nasceu?", "Como você conhece o (nome do amigo em comum de vocês)?" e "O que gosta de fazer para se divertir?". Se é um amigo que não vê há tempos: "Como vai o trabalho?", "E a família?", "Fez algo divertido no final de semana?". Essas perguntas são aquelas que têm mais de uma resposta possível, aumentando as chances de desenvolver a conversa, diferentemente de perguntas que podem ser respondidas com um simples "sim" ou "não". Ao fazer as perguntas abertas, o papo vai continuar rolando. Por exemplo: em vez de perguntar "Onde conheceu sua namorada?", pergunte "Como conheceu sua namorada?". A segunda pergunta pode acabar resultando em uma história, envolvendo o local onde se conheceram e as pessoas envolvidas nesse momento especial, enquanto a primeira pergunta tem apenas uma resposta. Outra forma de se fazer uma pergunta aberta é transformar uma pergunta de "sim ou não" em algo que peça mais detalhes. Por exemplo, em vez de "Você gostou do ensino médio?", pergunte "Do que gostava no ensino médio?". Se uma pessoa fizer uma pergunta e você responder com sim ou não, é óbvio que o papo vai morrer. Todos deveriam evitar perguntas fechadas mas, se alguém fizer uma pergunta do tipo, dê uma resposta que fuja do básico para manter o papo rolando. Por exemplo, se alguém perguntar "Você gosta de esportes?", não responda "sim" ou "não", mas explique sua resposta e compartilhe informações pessoais: "Sim, eu amo andar de skate, e faço isso desde pequeno. Algumas das minhas melhores memórias da infância são na pista do parque perto da casa dos meus pais. E você, de quais esportes gosta?". Evite também respostas que dão uma pausa na conversa. Por exemplo, se estão discutindo algo divertido e a outra pessoa diz "É, isso foi engraçado!", não responda com uma simples risada! Continue o papo! Você poderia dizer algo como...

Title: 3x3 eyes
Review: This anime series is a great one for anybody that likes action and romance. It is about a boy that falls in love with a divine demon who is the last of her race. Not to spoil the movie to much, they meet, go on adventures and they are seperated to finally be joined at the end. It is somewhat based on religon, well just the part of the divine demon and stuff. It is a great series.

(CNN) -- A fan recently summed up his feelings about NFL arenas in a blog post: Religions have their churches, and sports teams have their stadiums. As the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers leave their fans' places of Sunday worship to face off in the Super Bowl, one of the world's top sports arena architects shared a story that illustrates why some facilities are better than others. Rewind to 1998, when James Poulson and five top colleagues from the architectural firm now known as Aecom Ellerbe Becket were camping out in the office suite of Microsoft co-founder and Seattle Seahawks owner Paul Allen.

Pikirkan apakah Anda bisa membantunya mengatasi masalah tersebut. Pikirkan hal-hal yang terjadi dalam hidupnya dan apa yang bisa Anda lakukan untuk membantunya. Jangan memosisikan diri sebagai konselor, namun dengarkan keluhannya baik-baik. Kemungkinan besar, dia hanya sedang membutuhkan orang untuk diajak bicara.

Benefits and risks of badger cull extension\nThe Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) set itself the target of culling an average of 70% of badgers within the pilot cull areas over a six-week period, sustained for four years. Indeed, these were the terms of the licence granted by Natural England for the culls.
The companies charged with culling the badgers have fallen short of the target, reducing populations by 60% in west Somerset and 30% in west Gloucestershire. Mr Gibbens's advice was to carry on culling in both areas to control the spread of the disease.
On the face of it that might make sense to some. Surely if there are fewer badgers then the risk of TB in cattle is lowered? And what is wrong with going beyond the six week period to do so?
A spokesperson from Defra's press office told BBC News that the six-week culling period was arbitrary.
"Six weeks was set as the cull period by wildlife experts," he said. "It is not based on scientific evidence so it's impossible to say culling beyond six weeks necessarily increases perturbation - it's a theory but not conclusive," the spokesperson said.
Scientists involved with the original Randomised Badger Culling Trial (RBCT), on which the strategy for the current pilot culls are based, take issue with this interpretation.
Their concern arises from the data they obtained from the RBCT, which was carried out between 1998 and 2005 to assess the effectiveness of badger culling.
The RBCT mostly involved a series of short, sharp culls carried out over a period of two weeks in TB hot spots. There were, however, four trials that were carried out over a longer period.
The researchers found that after the first cull, TB infection in badgers increased the following year because of the increased movement of badgers (perturbation). They found that there was a bigger increase in areas where the culling was prolonged.
A number of expert panels, including Defra's own Science Advisory Council and TB group, concluded that a modest reduction in TB in cattle could be obtained if the culls were...\n\ntl;dr:

Segundo estudos, os alunos que recebem instruções prévias aprendem e retêm mais o conteúdo das excursões do que aqueles que simplesmente comparecem ao evento. Por exemplo, se estão estudando habitats animais e vão visitar o zoológico, comece explicando os diferentes ecossistemas e habitats na sala de aula: Faça com que os alunos estudem os habitats naturais dos animais que encontrarão no zoológico. Depois, peça que eles registrem as características dos habitats que o zoológico apresenta para esses animais. Faça com que eles comparem os habitats naturais e artificiais para ver se os animais estão recebendo um estilo de vida parecido com o da natureza. Prepare os alunos para o passeios explicando todas as atividades que eles terão que fazer no decorrer do dia. Detalhe todo o cronograma com antecedência para que eles consigam se preparar. Aproveite a oportunidade para dar as instruções necessárias para a excursão, poupando tempo no dia do evento. Faça um brainstorm de perguntas que a turma pode fazer para os instrutores do local. Talvez seja uma ideia ensiná-los a fazer perguntas sérias e com significado, para evitar problemas. Discuta tudo o que espera dos estudantes, incluindo as consequências para os que se comportarem mal. Por exemplo, se vão visitar um museu, diga que eles devem ficar em silêncio, serem respeitosos e não devem encostar em nenhum dos artefatos. Não obedecer isso pode resultar em uma ligação para os pais deles. Ao explicar tudo direitinho, você provavelmente não terá problemas. Descreva também o comportamento desejado durante o trajeto também. Por exemplo, os estudantes devem ficar sentados no ônibus e nunca devem distrair o motorista. Não importa o tipo de excursão que fará, é importante definir algumas medidas de precaução com antecedência. Por exemplo, se vão fazer uma viagem, discuta a segurança no trânsito com antecedência.

Extract key points from the article based on which the stock market could react:
A New York artist has made his feelings for Mark Zuckerberg clear after painting a portrait of the Facebook founder using his own excrement. Brooklyn-based artist KATSU used his own faeces to create a likeness of the Facebook CEO which has been put on display at a local art gallery, surrounded by blinking neon lights. This is not the first time KATSU has hit out at Zuckerberg using his art, and has often criticised the way Facebook uses personal data. One way to make a statement: Brooklyn-based artist KATSU painted this portrait of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg using his own faeces . Two years ago the artist decorated New York City with posters showing the Facebook founder with a black eye and a chipped tooth. 'With the Internet being literally woven into the human experience, I cannot stand by and not voice my discontent with those who plan on owning our lives,' KATSU told Gizmodo at the time. 'I'm upset and confused. I want the ability for people to permanently remove their information from Facebook… . 'I want Facebook to adequately explain to all users the extent to which their data will be farmed out and shared. Likeness? The portrait of Zuckerberg is exhibited at The Hole gallery in Manhattan . He added: 'Mark is Mark. He's this mutation, this gross aspiration everyone idolises. His face has reach. He deserves to be ridiculed.' The faecal matter portrait of Mark Zuckerberg is part of the Remember the Future exhibition at The Hole gallery in Manhattan. Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook has yet to comment on the unusual portrait.

A BBC reporter who is embedded with troops says the complex is still exposed to sniper and mortar fire.
Militants blew up the mosque and its landmark leaning minaret last week.
Using a pejorative term for the jihadist group, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi said retaking the site marked "the end of the fake Daesh state".
"We will not relent, our brave forces will bring victory," he added. "We will continue to fight Daesh until every last one of them is killed or brought to justice."
The mosque is of great symbolic importance to both sides because Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi made his only public appearance as IS leader there days after the jihadist group proclaimed the creation of a "caliphate" exactly three years ago.
The militants are now in retreat across Iraq and neighbouring Syria, where US-backed Kurdish and Arab fighters are laying siege to the city of Raqqa.
A coalition spokesman tweeted that some 84,000 sq km (32,000 sq miles) of territory had so far been retaken and more than four million people freed from IS rule, adding: "[IS's] so-called caliphate is crumbling; from outside and from within".
The research firm IHS Markit meanwhile estimated that the jihadists still controlled about 36,200 sq km (13,980 sq miles) across Iraq and Syria, and that their average monthly revenue had fallen dramatically, from $81m (£62m) in the second quarter of 2015 to $16m (£12m) in the second quarter of this year.
Iraqi pro-government forces launched an offensive to retake Mosul in October with air and ground support from a US-led multinational coalition.
They managed to take full control of the eastern half of the city in January and started an assault on the west the following month.
Only a few hundred militants are now believed to be left in about 1 sq km (0.4 sq miles) of the Old City, along with some 50,000 civilians who humanitarian organisations say have little food or water and are at great risk of injury or death.
BBC Arabic's Feras Kilani says units from the Counter-Terrorism Service (CTS), Emergency Response Division...

I am a movie director and I just received the following movie plot. Could you help me answer this question? If not, let me know by writing "Not answerable".
Plot title: Creepshow 3
Movie plot: Wraparound story[edit]
Unlike the first two Creepshow installments, in which the wraparound element linking the stories was a horror comic, Creepshow III takes an approach similar to Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, in which characters from each story collide with each other during the film. There is also a hot dog stand as a common element in the movie. Brochures, ads and other things from the hot dog stand are peppered throughout.
Alice[edit]
Alice (Stephanie Pettee) is a stuck-up, snotty teenager who comes home to find her father meddling with some kind of universal remote. Whenever he presses one of the buttons on the device, the whole family except for Alice changes ethnicity (i.e., the "Color and Hue Settings" button makes her family turn African-American, and the "Subtitles" button makes her family turn Hispanic). During this, Alice gradually mutates into what is supposedly her "true form".
Just when Alice thinks everything is back to normal, her father presses another button, revealing Alice's true form. Her family is absolutely horrified at the sight of Alice. The story ends with Professor Dayton, the mad scientist from down the street, using another remote control to turn Alice into a white rabbit. Notable in this story is the link to Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. Victor, the vampire, makes an appearance in this story.
The Radio[edit]
Jerry (A. J. Bowen) is a part-time security guard who buys a radio from a homeless street vendor to replace his old one which has stopped working; however, this mysterious new radio is far from ordinary as it can have a conversation with Jerry. Very soon Jerry is stealing money and murdering people, all at the whim of his new radio. After escaping with a hooker who lives in his building, Jerry is told by the radio to kill the hooker or she will kill him. He refuses and destroys the radio. Right after, the hooker finds his gun in the car and shoots Jerry, killing him. Moments after she kills him and wipes the gun clean, she is shot in the head. The shooter is...

Article:
(CNN) -- If Vladimir Putin wanted to get America's attention, he's done a pretty good job. The Russian president's opinion piece arguing against military intervention in Syria, published on The New York Times' website late Wednesday, set off a flurry of reactions -- some outraged, some impressed, and some just plain bemused. Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez said the piece made him almost want to throw up, and House Speaker John Boehner said he was "insulted." Putin said he wrote the article "to speak directly to the American people and their political leaders." But he appeared to have raised some hackles with the last paragraph in which he disputed the idea of American exceptionalism.

Doc to summarize: A 200-yard (180m) section of the Cumbria Coast Line at Flimby remains closed after flooding washed away a section of embankment on Friday.
Train operator Northern Rail said buses were being used between Carlisle and Workington.
However, the company said train services had resumed between Workington and Barrow-in-Furness.
Network Rail said engineers faced a "huge task" of repairing the damage strong winds and high tides caused to the coastal rail route.
'Significant damage'
A spokesman for Northern Rail added: "The line between Barrow and Workington has reopened to train services.
"The Cumbrian Coast Line had been closed following significant damage caused by storms and flooding.
"A number of sites were affected and Network Rail engineers have worked over the weekend to reinstate the railway at many of these locations so trains can operate between Workington and Barrow.
"However, at Flimby, where the storm washed away over 200 yards of track, the scale of the damage means that sea defences need to be rebuilt before work can begin to reinstate the track.
"Early indications are that this will take Network Rail around one week to complete.
"A bus replacement service will operate between Carlisle and Workington."
Environment Agency flood warnings remain in place for the Cumbrian coast from Gretna to St Bees, including North Morecambe Bay.

Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer:
Article: Teachers and textbooks _ -- your future could be under threat from a quickly developing and very smart technology.
University of California researchers led by Jacob White hill recently programmed teaching robots to react to facial expression. Whitehill's achievement marked a major step forward in the way people could one day learn by establishing facial expression recognition in robot teachers.
The teaching robots or, Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) are computer systems that provide personalized instruction and feedback to students without human intervention. The facial expression recognition allows a computer to react according to expressions a user makes.
He said that the system was an important development in improving learning systems.
"Classical ITS typically have a somewhat rigid architecture of 'first I ask a questions then I wait for a responses then I talk some more; then I wait for another response.' Facial expression recognition, I believe, will allow the feedback from student to teacher to happen while the robot teacher is talking," Whitehill said.
Experts agree the latest developments in ITS open new possibilities for how people could learn. University of Memphis researcher, Dr Andrew Olney, who recently received a US$ I. 3 million grant to develop an ITS, said the key to future learning will be enabling interactive , one-on-one instruction.
"The technology can benefit these more advanced learning scenarios ," he said.
Although robot teachers of varying abilities have existed for more than 30 years, ITS developments such as Whitehill's and Olney's are pushing beliefs that robots could soon be as effective as-- if not more effective than human teachers.
"The ITS which have been developed are already better teachers than people who have no experience," Olney said.
So, what is the future for today's teachers, classrooms, and textbooks?

A throw doubt on

Narcolepsy is fairly uncommon, and it is important to be evaluated by a doctor for a correct diagnosis. Your doctor will give you a physical exam to rule out any other issues that may be causing symptoms similar to narcolepsy and it will be necessary for you to undergo specialized tests in a sleep disorders clinic. Your doctor will also want a detailed medical history, and may ask you to keep a sleep journal. If your doctor suspects you have narcolepsy, you will likely have to undergo at least two sleep tests, the polysomnogram (PSG) and the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT). The PSG is an overnight test in which machines at a sleep disorders clinic will measure things like your heart and respiratory rates, electrical activity in the brain, and nerve activity. The MSLT measures your tendency to fall asleep during the day and determines if elements of REM sleep occur during waking hours. They will also test how long it takes you to fall asleep. Other tests, such as blood or spinal fluid tests, may also be necessary to confirm a diagnosis of narcolepsy. Stimulants affect the body's central nervous system. They are generally the primary treatment method prescribed for those with narcolepsy as they can help you stay awake throughout the day. Talk to your doctor about stimulants and decide, based on your medical history, what the best route of treatment is for you. Modafinil and armodafinil are the most often prescribed medications for people with narcolepsy. They tend to be less addictive than other stimulants (like amphetamines) and produce less mood swings. Modafinil given in the morning prevents sleeping during the day, but should still allow you to fall asleep at night. Side effects tend to be rare, although some patients report dry mouth and nausea. Some people may not respond to modafinil or armodafinil. Other options include methylphenidate type drugs, such as Ritalin, but these have been known to produce nervousness in patients. They also tend to be more addictive. Your doctor should discuss with...

Article: Some people have to use public transport, some dislike it and still some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.
British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and lowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.
Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.
What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs for personal computers or mobile phone.

First, read the English article below.
If a new, cute guy has just approached you, smile softly at him. You don't want to seem overly eager or too enthusiastic. This might scare him away. Just grin at him, batting your eyelashes a few times. He'll know that you are at least somewhat interested in him but aren't desperate for his company. This will make you seem approachable without seeming overzealous. This works on a guy across the room as well. If you see a guy who you want to come talk to you, smile at him across the room, making eye contact. This will send out the signal that you see him and are open to him talking to you. Using your eyes is a great way to attract the attention of a guy. When you first meet a guy, don't stare at him too much and look over too eager for his company. Bat your eyes at him, looking away only to sneak looks back at him. This will let him know you are interested and playful but not desperate. Give him a smoldering look as he says something nice to you. You want him to know that you like what you are seeing when you look at him. If you are on your morning train commute or in the grocery store and you see a guy you like, try making eye contact. When he looks up at you, hold his gaze for a second, but then look away. Then, look back at him and wait for him to look back at you. Once you catch his eye again, smile at him shyly and then look away again. Try to let him know your interested without looking desperate. He will eventually get that you think he's cute and come talk to you. Coming off as coy has a lot of do with your body language. When you interact with him, you want to let him know you are interested without telling him. Stand or sit closer to him as you talk. When you want to tell him something, lean closer to him and say it in his ear. Find a way to touch him, such as leaning on him for support while you fix your shoe or try to regain your balance. When you are thinking about an answer to a question, bite your lip or put your finger near your mouth. This will make you look alluring. Being subtle in your body...

Server: Hi. Welcome to Joe's Hamburger Restaurant. [Hi] Home of the one-pound super deluxe hot and spicy cheeseburger. Will this be for here or to go?
Customer: Uh, to go.
Server: Okay. What would you like today? Would you like to try the one-pound super hot and spicy cheeseburger?
Customer: Uh. I don't think so. I'd probably have heartburn for a week after downing that monster.
Server: Well. It's our house special this week, and it comes with fries, and a large specialty drink called "Everything-but-the-kitchen-sink."
Customer: A what? "Everything-but-the-kitchen-sink"? What in the world is that?
Server: Well, it's a little mix of everything in a large cup: Pepsi, Sprite, Fanta Orange, and lemonade with crushed ice and a scoop of ice cream.
Customer: Ah, that sounds disgusting.
Server: Hey, it'll grow on you.
Customer: Nay, I think I'll just order a hamburger with some mustard and lettuce and a glass of water.
Server: Boring. Hey. Would you care for anything else like a side order of amazing cheesy onion rings?
Customer: No thank you. Onion rings usually don't agree with me.
Server: Hmm. Okay. Your total comes to ten ninety ($10.90).
Customer: Ten ninety? For just a hamburger?! You've got to be kidding
Server: Well, the one-pound super deluxe hamburger is nine dollars.
Customer: Hey, I didn't order a one-pound burger. I just wanted a simple burger. That's all.
Server: Well, sir. Joe's Hamburger Restaurant only serves one-pound burgers. [Man!] The one-pound super hot and spicy, the one-pound barbecue burger, the one-pound bacon cheese burger, the one-pound ...
Customer: No, no. Those are all huge.
Server: Well, sir. If you really want something smaller [Yeah], you should order from the kids' menu: The half-pound super hot and spicy burger, the half-pound barbecue burger, the half-pound bacon cheese burger, the half-pound ...
Customer: No. Those are still giant burgers.
Server: Well, in these parts, we are hearty eaters.
Customer: Okay, but you said my total was ten ninety, but the burger...

Generate a question about the following movie plot: A man driving down a hillside road realizes that his car's brakes have failed. The car crashes into a toll booth, killing the man. He leaves a dying message: "Tanabata kyo." A Mahjong tile next to his body links this case to six others in Tokyo, Kanagawa, Shizuoka, Nagano, and other Japanese prefectures. Because of the Mahjong tiles left beside each victim, the police conclude that the same person or organization committed these murders. The police across Japan unite to solve the serial murder case.
After a police conference about this case, Conan discovers a police officer entering a black Porsche 356A owned by Gin. He concludes that a Black Organization member disguised as an officer has infiltrated the meeting. On Tanabata, Conan corners Vermouth in the underground parking lot of a shopping mall. She reveals that the Black Organization needs a memory chip, which the murderer took, and a new member, "Irish".
Conan employs the help of Heiji Hattori to solve the case by following the dying message lead. He and Heiji find out that two years ago, an accidental fire in a Kyoto hotel killed a young woman named Nanako Honjou. The elevator could only hold seven, but eight needed to evacuate. Nanako was not on the last elevator and did not escape.
Conan tracks down her neighbor, Shun Sawamura, and asks him some questions. He finds out that Nanako and her boyfriend, Kousuke Mizutani, often went stargazing together. Conan realizes that the crime scenes are ordered like the star constellation Ursa Major, making the last crime scene Shiba Park. The police also figure out the pattern and leave for Tokyo Tower.
Conan confronts Mizutani, who is about to commit suicide in Nanako's memory and to avoid arrest. Mizutani thought one of the seven had pushed Nanako out, but Nanako's brother, Kazuki Honjou, shows up and testifies that he had overheard two survivors say that Nanako voluntarily stepped out. Conan reveals that the murderer is Kazuki because Mizutani would not murder to stain the memory of Nanako. He tells Mizutani...

Cornelius Brown, 23, of Greenhill Lane, Riddings pleaded guilty to stabbing Jade Riley-Ward in Somercotes, Derbyshire earlier this year.
Ms Riley-Ward, 30, suffered more than 80 stab wounds in the attack at her home in September 2012, which the judge described as "torture".
Judge Jonathan Teare described Brown as "intensely jealous" and "possessive". He will serve a minimum of 20 years.
At Nottingham Crown Court, Judge Teare told Brown: "You were intensely jealous and intensely possessive of her.
"She was defenceless. Your attack on Jade was vicious and prolonged and it would not be wrong to describe it as torture.
"The whole family is devastated by her pointless death at such a young age when she had so much to look forward to."
The court heard Ms Riley-Ward had been Brown's babysitter when he was younger and they had been in a relationship for eight months.
Judge Teare said Brown had "convinced himself" that she was having an affair. He attacked her with four kitchen knives.
Speaking after the sentencing, Det Ch Insp Karen Pearson from the East Midlands Specialist Operations Unit, said: "The last 14 months has been horrendous for the family.
"Their whole world has fallen apart.
"Today's sentence won't bring Jade back but they can now continue in their recovery from the grief knowing he [Brown] has got the justice he deserves."
This boils down to the simple idea that
