You may not realize it, but there are actually three different types of tweezers. Slanted tweezers are great for plucking hair. The end of this tweezer will be flat, but will be slanted down at an angle. This is ideal for plucking hairs, especially if they grow close to the skin. Other types of tweezers include needle-nosed tweezers and a hybrid version which is pointed at the tip, but also has a slanted edge. You may be able to manage plucking a stray hair with these in a pinch, but having a pair of slanted tweezers for regular use will be ideal. To be extra careful, you can clean your tweezers with a bit of rubbing alcohol before each plucking session. If you are trying to pluck all the hairs in a particular area (e.g. your chin or above your lip), this may not be necessary. However, if you’re plucking an area where you want to leave some hairs behind (e.g. eyebrows), drawing guidelines can help keep you from overplucking. There are different ways to do this. For example, if you are trying to shape your eyebrows, use a brow pencil and shape your eyebrows the way that you want them to look. Then, all you have to do is pluck the hairs that stand outside of the desired shape. You can also use a makeup pencil that contrasts with your skin. For example, if you are trying to shape your sideburns into a particular shape, you can use the pencil to draw the guidelines. Then, simply pluck the hairs that are on the wrong side of the line and leave the rest. When you’re ready to pluck a hair, use the tweezers to grab the hair as close to the base as possible. Then, pull the hair quickly from the skin in the direction it grows. This will make the hair come out as easily as possible. If you pull the hair in the opposite direction that it grows, you will probably experience more pain than necessary as it is more difficult to pull the hair out this way. Do your best to grab the hair as close to the base as possible without pinching your skin. This will make the process as painless as possible. Additionally, if you don’t... TL;DR in English:
Use slanted tweezers. Draw lines to help guide you. Pluck the hair with the grain. Use a mirror in a well-lit spot. Check your work.

Review text: Don't know what is up with the attitude of the employees at this store. Walked in here with my sister while on my Vegas Shopping Spree and was completly ignored with the exception of the sales peoples eyes were watching us like hawks...Like I was going to steel any of the resale shop grade cloths off there racks. We were the only ones in this store for about 5 min and weren't ever asked if we needed any help with anything. When a couple came in after us they were helped right away. As said in pretty women big mistake... I was more then willing to take my business elsewhere (which I did. Bought stuff at Eltons, D&G and Versace. If you are going to be snobby at least have some nice cloths on the racks. This place was just trashy. Review score (between 1 and 5):

By Jennifer McKiernanBBC News NI One woman contacted the police eight times before she was killed, figures obtained by BBC News NI showed. The family of one of the women said tougher legislation is needed to protect women. A new bill to strengthen NI's domestic abuse legislation is currently being considered by the assembly. Police said they would welcome more protection in law for victims. Connie Leonard was murdered at her home in in Maguiresbridge, County Fermanagh, in 2017. Her brother Fergal said police needed to be given stronger powers to tackle domestic violence. He told the BBC: "There are a number of matters I feel that could have been acted on and may have saved Connie's life." "The last person in the world that I thought something would have happened to is Connie." Ms Leonard and her son Conor, who has Down's syndrome, were attacked by 55-year-old Peadar Phair, a former partner of Ms Leonard. She had reported Phair three times before she was murdered and she had taken out a non-molestation order against him. Phair later took his own life. Police, Mr Leonard said, must "know what their powers are and that they use these powers effectively". There must be "proper monitoring and following up" and officers must know "what actions they are supposed to take". The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), which released the figures to the BBC following a freedom of information request, said it would welcome more protection in law for victims of domestic abuse. Det Ch Insp Lindsay Fisher said: "In terms of legislation, police are very much bound by and uphold the law. "Therefore we are always acting within the law in terms of our response to domestic abuse matters or any other crime. "Police would welcome any further legislation that would support victims of domestic abuse and would seek to bring offenders to justice." Det Ch Insp Fisher urged anyone suffering from abuse to "reach out to police or to a family member". She added: "The PSNI is here to help victims of domestic abuse and... \n\nGive me a good title for the article above.

Melbourne (CNN) -- The curious timing of North Korea's Unha-3 rocket launch, outside of its usual spring-summer launch window, raises questions about the political motivations behind Pyongyang's attention-grabbing move. On Wednesday morning, just before 10 a.m. local time, South Korean news agency Yonhap and the Japanese government reported that the rocket had been launched. It came just days after North Korea extended the launch window due to technical issues.

Title: B&Q lorry ploughs into side of house in Harlow\nGiven the above title of an imaginary article, imagine the article.\n
The crash happened at Canons Gate, close to the Pinnacles industrial estate in Harlow at about 03:30 GMT. A spokesman for Essex Police confirmed no-one was injured. However, structural engineers were called because of damage to the property. "The driver assisted us with our inquiries and there were no reported offences," the officer added. It is understood a couple were asleep in a bedroom upstairs at the time of the crash but escaped uninjured. Harlow Council confirmed the house had been "deemed dangerous" and a building control team was investigating. "Once the lorry is removed later today, a full assessment of the damage can take place," the council spokesman said. "We know this is a difficult time for the owners after what happened this morning. "Officers will stay on site as a precaution until more is known about the damage and the action which can be taken to make the property safe." A spokeswoman for the DIY firm said: "B&Q and Wincanton, our fleet operators, are co-operating fully with the police to understand what happened." She added the firm sent its "heartfelt apologies" to the family involved, and that it would "support them however we can." You may also be interested in:

Covid-19: Church-run bowling alley wins cash support\nThe Xcel Project, run by the Towy Community Church, includes a food bank, shop and furniture recycling. Carmarthenshire council bosses approved the aid after hearing the food bank helped nearly 3,200 people in 2019. Councillor Peter Hughes-Griffiths said it would be "a disaster" if Xcel Bowl went bust due to Covid hitting profits. "This is a special case," he said. "If they were not doing this work, it would be a big blow to us in Carmarthenshire." In January and February Xcel Bowl made a £15,000 profit, but when the pandemic struck the premises were closed, staff were furloughed and expansion plans put on hold. The alley, which opened in 2013 on the site of a former creamery, reopened in August but has taken just over a third of normal takings due to reduced capacity. The council funding will allow it to continue to operate, albeit with reduced hours. As well as a grant of £50,000, an existing loan has been extended by up to £50,000. Council leader Emlyn Dole said: "We don't have an endless pot of money, but we need to be well prepared in our ability and agility to respond." Trustees for the church said they were "delighted" with the council's ongoing support, and planned to press ahead with the launch of a money advice centre. "This commitment, at a time when revenues have been drastically reduced due to Covid restrictions, secures our ability to plan for the future," the trustees said in a statement to the Local Democracy Reporting Service. \n\ntl;dr:
A church which opened a bowling alley in Carmarthen to fund good deeds has been promised £50,000 of council cash to keep running during the pandemic.

I just moved into a new place, and Coronado Cafe is right around the corner. The menu looks great, the wine list is well-rounded, and the opportunity to stumble home after several glasses of vino gave this place major points before I'd stepped in the door. I WANTED to like it, but I'm not sure that I'll go back.\n\nMy fiancee and I were seated by a friendly hostess at a small table in a cozy room at the back of the restaurant (house). It had the opportunity to be intimate, but it was over-lit, and we felt awkward hearing every word of our neighbors' conversation. \n\nWe started with the Brie and Lavash, which was wonderful. All of the flavors melded together perfectly. Around the same time we ordered a bottle of wine. Our waiter poured us a glass, and that was the last time he touched our bottle for the rest of the night.\n\nFor entrees I got the penne pasta in a green chile cream sauce (rich and tasty--one of the few vegetarian entree options), and the fiancee went with the pork tenderloin (dry and chewy). The portion that he was served was the end of the tenderloin--a piece that rarely makes it onto the plate as an entree because it is notorious for being tough and dry. Our server never came back to check on our food, so we didn't have a chance to make it right. \n\nTo sum it up: a snotty, inattentive waiter and hit or miss food. It might be best to go for an appetizer and bottle of wine. Just be prepared to pour it yourself. === Based on that, my rating is

I am trying to decide whether it's worth it to invest in this film proposal. Can you help me answer a few questions? If you can't, please say "No I can't". Question: Who gives Katsumoto safe passage to Tokyo? Movie title: The Last Samurai Movie plot: In the summer of 1876, Captain Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise), is a disenchanted ex-United States Army captain and an alcoholic. He has been traumatized by his experience fighting in the Civil War and the Indian Wars. In the years following his army service, Algren makes his living by telling war stories to gun show audiences in San Francisco, an experience which further hampers his mental state and stimulates him to drink. Fed up with Algren's perpetual drunkenness, his employer fires him. Algren reluctantly accepts an invitation from his former commanding officer Colonel Bagley (Tony Goldwyn), whom Algren deeply hates and blames for his waking nightmares about his role in Indian massacres. On behalf of a Japanese businessman, Mr. Omura (Masato Harada), Bagley offers him a job helping the new Meiji Restoration government train its new Western-style Imperial Japanese Army. Japan is in the middle of drastic civil change and the new Western-style additions to society have not gone unopposed. The samurai are conducting an insurrection against the modernization campaign, which has motivated Omura to seek Bagley's assistance.Under the command of Bagley, Algren and his companions travel to Japan. They are assisted by Algren's former army colleague Sergeant Zebulon Gant (Billy Connolly) and Simon Graham (Timothy Spall), a British translator with a deep interest in the samurai. The newly-formed Japanese Army is formed of poorly-trained and equipped conscripts, peasants who completely lack combat experience. Algren does his best to remedy this, but before the men are trained to his satisfaction, the leader of the insurrection, Katsumoto (Ken Watanabe), attacks a railroad outside his province. Bagley orders Algren to lead the inexperienced conscripts to engage Katsumoto. Algren protests and offers a demonstration of the army's inexperience and inadequate training. Bagley dismisses Algren's concerns and orders a regiment to track down and engage Katsumoto.When the regiment arrives at the battlefield, Bagley moves to the...

Article in Portuguese: Brincar à noite é uma ótima forma de deixar um bichano cansado antes da hora de ir para a cama. Os brinquedos que imitam os movimentos de ratos e pássaros, animais que os gatos caçam na natureza, são opções ideais. Procure brinquedos que pulem e serpenteiem, como bolas de pingue-pongue, brinquedos presos a cordas e ratinhos de pelúcia. Brinque com seu felino até ele parecer cansado ou desinteressado. Os gatos fazem sessões rápidas de caça, por isso se cansam rapidamente (já que são velocistas, e não maratonistas). Eles costumam ficar exaustos após dez a 15 minutos de brincadeira. No entanto, é importante que ele participe de várias sessões de brincadeiras distribuídas ao longo do dia. A vida nos nossos animais de estimação gira em torno das nossas idas e vindas. É normal que os gatos fiquem entediados durante o dia, quando os donos não estão em casa. Isso causa um excesso de carência durante a noite, quando estamos tentando relaxar e dormir. Mantenha o gato entretido enquanto você estiver no trabalho ou na escola, assim ele estará menos propensos à atenção durante a noite. Dê brinquedos com os quais ele possa brincar sozinho. Ratinhos de pelúcia, principalmente aqueles que vem com catnip (também conhecida como erva-dos-gatos), são uma ótima opção. O gato poderá arremessá-los para lá e para e para cá, sem a ajuda de um humano. Lembre-se também de trocar os brinquedos com frequência, já que assim como os seres humanos, os gatos gostam de variar e enjoam de um determinado brinquedo depois de algum tempo. Vídeos com conteúdo projetado especificamente para gatos podem ser encontrados em lojas físicas e online, O vídeo “CatNip from Pet-A-Vision Inc.”, por exemplo, inclui imagens de pássaros e ratos que os gatos tentarão capturar quando você não estiver em casa. Simplesmente deixe a televisão ligada, no nível dos olhos do felino. Você poderá encontrar brinquedos que funcionem com bateria na maioria dos supermercados, lojas de departamento e pet shops. Eles se mexem sozinhos e podem ficar ligados por algumas... Summary in English:

There are many mistakes that people make after a relationship is over that can prevent the split from being truly amicable. One of these is a tendency to complain about the other person. If word gets back to the other person that you've been saying unkind things about him or her, this can be hurtful and ruin any chances of an amicable end to the relationship. You may have feelings you need to vent, but don't do it with anyone who is likely to share your comments with others. Definitely do not complain about this person to mutual friends. Don't vent on social media, either. If you don't think you'll be able to resist the temptation, just stay off social media for a few days until you are calmer about the situation. If you feel you've been wronged by the other person in the relationship in some way, it can be very tempting after a breakup to seek revenge in some way. It should go without saying that if you want things to be amicable, this is unacceptable. Do not, for example, get romantically involved with a friend of other person as means of getting back at him or her. Do not post embarrassing pictures of him or her on the internet, or go around revealing information that was told to you in confidence. Where many breakups turn nasty is when it comes time to divide shared possessions and/or return things that belonged to the other person. This can be especially difficult if you live with the other person. Approach this as calmly as possible, and be fair. Give back anything that legitimately belongs to the other person. Try to find a mutually agreeable compromise with shared belongings, asking, for example: "How would you feel if I took X and you take Y?" If the other person really wants something and it isn't that important to you, it may be worth just letting him or her have it. If it's not worth a fight, consider just letting it go. If the other person still has feelings for you and wants to get back together, do not encourage these feelings in any way, unless you are seriously considering getting back... TL;DR in English:
Don't complain about your ex. Don't seek revenge. Divide any shared possessions fairly. Don't encourage lingering feelings. Avoid intimate contact. Give it time.

OLD TOWN - the heart and soul of Key West and the place most visitors spend their time - is only one mile by two. The Crew's house by the cemetery was less than half a mile from where they'd last seen Winston. Walking, it might've taken ten minutes to get there, but on Chloe's Vespa it was a hair-raising three-minute ride away. When they got there, Paul saw no sign of either Winston or Lily, so he assumed they were still inside the rundown shack that passed for a gallery. They parked a block away and approached at a brisk walk, Paul almost jogging to keep up with Chloe's excited strides. Winston was Chloe's mentor in what they referred to as "The Life," this being a euphemism for a whole range of different activities, groups and lifestyles that fell under the general category of living underground and off the information grid. Paul, after defrauding his former partners and then running afoul of the law in a very public way, had been living The Life for almost a year and a half now. Chloe, as near as he could tell, had been doing it for almost a decade. Winston had started in the late '60s as a 16-year-old member of the notorious Weather Underground. He not only led his own Crew, he was also in contact with dozens, maybe scores of other such groups all over the world, including Chloe and Paul's little Crew of four. On top of all that, he'd once taken a couple bullets while helping Paul out, so, like Chloe, Paul had a soft spot in his heart for the old man. They hadn't seen him since that bloody night, but Chloe had been in communication with him off and on over the last sixteen months. Winston and his Crew were old school and didn't trust much in the way of electronic communications. Mostly it had been encoded, hand-delivered letters and arcane classified ads in various newspapers. Chloe found this particular breed of paranoia on Winston's part annoying, but Paul admired it. According to the above context, answer the following question. What notorious group was Winston a member of in the late 1960's?
Weather Underground

I want to edit the following articles into a more concise summary: Article: (CBS) – A U.S. postal worker was being hailed as a hero after coming to the rescue of a UPS driver during a pit bull attack Friday. It happened around 10 a.m. on North Cicero Avenue in the Cragin neighborhood, CBS 2’s Audrina Bigos reports. Witnesses say they don’t think the dog-attack victim would be alive if it weren’t for the postal worker’s actions. The postal worker jumped on the dog and pulled it off the UPS driver. He held onto the dog for 15 or 20 minutes until help arrived. The victim suffered injuries to his ear, head, forearm, hands and ankle, a UPS spokesperson said. The worker was still in the hospital Friday night undergoing surgery. The animal is currently undergoing a 10-day rabies observation, according to the city’s animal control department. The dog was identified as a female pit bull terrier. Article: A postal worker on his route came to the rescue of a buddy, a UPS employee, when a pit bull attacked him in Chicago's Cragin neighborhood on the Northwest Side on Friday morning, officials said. The postal worker jumped on the dog, pulled the animal off of UPS worker Jesus Toledo and held on to it until help arrived, according to officials. The attack occurred about 10:30 a.m. in the 1900 block of North Cicero Avenue. The dog involved was a black and white female pit bull terrier about a year old, said Brad Powers, a spokesman for the city’s department of Animal Care and Control. Toledo suffered injuries to his ear, head, forearm, hands and ankle, and underwent surgery at West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park, according to Dan McMackin, a spokesman for UPS. He was "conscious and speaking after the attack," he said in an email. The man is 48 and has been with UPS since 1993, he said. The postal worker was not seriously injured and declined a trip to the hospital, according to Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford. "He has some minor bumps and bruises and maybe a couple of scratches," said U.S. Postal Service spokesman Mark Reynolds. He said the worker was on his normal route when he saw Toledo being attacked. “They do look out for each other," Reynolds said of the two agencies. The pit bull, which was not a stray, remained in custody as of Tuesday, Powers said, and is undergoing a 10-day rabies observation. The matter was escalated to a “dangerous dog’’ investigation, and animal care has up to 30 days to make a determination about the dog’s future. It can be returned to its owner, banished from the city or destroyed, according to Powers.
The US Postal Service-UPS rivalry vanished yesterday in the face of a common enemy: an attacking and possibly rabid pit bull. Officials say that when a UPS driver in Chicago was attacked by the dog, a passing postal worker pulled it off him and held it down for more than 15 minutes until help arrived, the Chicago Tribune reports. The UPS employee was hospitalized with injuries to his ear, head, forearm, hands, and ankle. Witnesses tell CBS 2 the postal worker probably saved the other man's life. The dog is being held for rabies observation. A Postal Service spokesman tells the Tribune that the postal worker suffered only minor injuries, and the rivals "do look out for each other." (A letter carrier in Alabama saved a man who had been trapped for 10 days.)

New York (CNN) -- The parents of a missing Virginia college student plan to travel to New York on Thursday to assist in his search. Ian Hunter Burnet, a 22-year-old Virginia Commonwealth University student, went missing days after arriving in New York City to celebrate New Year's Eve, authorities said. Burnet left Richmond on a bus bound for New York on December 26, according to his father, Mark.

Summarize: Four-year-old terrier Jake scares off the seagulls at the Angus town, watched on by his owner, harbour assistant Carl Nielsen. Jake, who has his own Facebook page, has a particular fondness for the Beach Boys and Pink Floyd during karaoke sessions. He joins in with regulars at the Stag's Head in Carnoustie. Mr Nielsen, 39, told BBC Radio Scotland's John Beattie programme: "Jake's a loveable character really. "Everybody loves him, everybody knows him and everybody knows how to make him talk. "There are certain specific words we can use and he'll sing along to. "He sings Beach Boys songs, he loves Sloop John B and he loves singing along to the solo guitar parts of Pink Floyd." Jake, who wears a lifejacket while on patrol has worked at the harbour since he was a puppy. Mr Nielsen said: "As soon as he gets his jacket on he knows he's going to work and as soon as it's taken off he knows he's chilling out. "If a seagull lands on the quayside, he'll run after it and scare it off. "If people are eating sandwiches or eating ice-cream on the front, the seagulls are basically kept at bay by Jake the harbour dog. "Otherwise the seagulls would be dive bombing you, they'd be trying to take sandwiches out of your hands. "These aren't ordinary seagulls, they're genetically modified or something, they're huge." As well as karaoke, Mr Nielsen said Jake was partial to a sip of "the dregs" of a pint of Guinness after a day's work. He said: "He basically just patrols the harbour, he never goes on a dog lead. "He's constantly running around meeting people, he isn't shy, he isn't aggressive. "It's the ideal life for a dog, I think."
A working dog with a love of Guinness and karaoke is proving to be a hit with visitors to Arbroath harbour.

He was speaking after Prime Minister Theresa May refused to be drawn on whether she believed in the "principle" of a fresh vote. The focus on Scotland's constitution comes on the day the UK government formally began the Brexit process. Mrs May has insisted "now is not the time" for an independence referendum. However, when journalist Andrew Neil asked the prime minister during a half-hour BBC interview what time would be acceptable, she did not answer the question directly. Instead, Mrs May said: "If I can just explain why I've said now is not the time because I think this is relevant to the wider question. "I think now is not the time to focus on a second independence referendum or to be looking at that second referendum. "Now is the time we need to pull together as a United Kingdom. "We need to be talking about how we can work together to get the best possible deal for everybody across the whole United Kingdom. Focusing on an independence referendum isn't about that." Responding to Mrs May's view, Holyrood's Brexit minister Mr Russell said it was "democratically unacceptable" that Scotland could not have a vote on its future. Earlier this month, First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon confirmed she would ask for permission to hold a second referendum on Scottish independence. Her call was backed by MSPs at the Scottish Parliament this week. Ms Sturgeon's SNP-led administration, supported by Scottish Green MSPs, argued a new vote was needed in light of last June's referendum when voters north of the border backed the UK retaining EU membership by 62% to 38%. Voters in the whole of the UK chose to Leave by 52% to 48%. Asked by BBC Scotland's Gordon Brewer what the Scottish government could do about holding a referendum without UK government support, Mr Russell said: "There has never been a moment in devolution in the last 18 years where the UK government has refused to have a conversation with a devolved administration - so that is a new low we are going to. "And whatever happens in this there will have... === Given the above document, write one sentence to summarize:

Title: Blandford Cemetery wall and chapels listing bid\nGiven the above title of an imaginary article, imagine the article.\n
The boundary wall at Blandford Cemetery, Dorset, had been due to be replaced with a fence after it was deemed unsafe, the town council said. It said the work had since been put on hold after an application was made to Historic England to list the wall and the cemetery's two chapels. Local resident Madeleine Bridle said the wall was "integral" to the town. The wall, which was built in the mid 1800s and borders some residential properties, has been damaged by the roots of several lime and sycamore trees, which are subject to tree preservation orders, Blandford Town Council said. The plan was to replace the wall with a wooden fence at a cost of £13,525 - some of which would be offset by the sale of the bricks. "Why should we sell town property?" Ms Brindle, who lodged the application, said. "We don't want a fence replacing this beautiful 19th Century brick wall. "It is integral to the character of the town." A council spokeswoman said it had to "strike the right balance between the preserved trees, the wall and the budget". Ms Brindle also wants two chapels to be listed at the site, one of which is now disused but was previously a morgue. The council said a previous attempt by the authority to list the chapels, following an arson attack in September 2013, failed. Historic England said it would assess the application as swiftly as possible.

Michael Scott said some of Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust's (NSFT) front line services were suffering. He said the trust had been forced to overspend by £2m this year. The government said it had gone "further than ever before to put mental health on a par with physical health". On Saturday the BBC revealed the trust had 50 patients in beds outside the counties, due to a lack of funding and a shortage of beds. The Campaign to Save Mental Health Services in Norfolk and Suffolk has said the trust's programme to make £40m of cuts by 2018 has had a "devastating impact on people who rely on mental health services". Mr Scott told the BBC: "The trust is dramatically underfunded. The money that comes through from the Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG) is insufficient for the services we provide. "If we had been funded the same level as our local acute hospitals, we would have £30m more than we do. "This year we are about £2m overspent. That's a direct result of not having sufficient income coming into the trust." He said the NHS budget had grown modestly but had "not found its way into the mental health". "Our Clinical Commisioning Groups (CCG) are very supportive but there are national funding mechanisms. That means the money is not going to mental health," he said. While mainstream hospital funding is based on the number of patients, mental health receives a block grant unrelated to the number of users. This has seen the budgets of the mainstream hospitals in the two counties rise by 15% since 2010, while mental health service funding, despite a 4.4% increase in users, has fallen by 3%. A spokesman for the Norfolk and Suffolk CCGs said: "Mr Scott notes that local CCGs are very supportive, and directs all of his comments towards national funding formulas. "Mental health is funded on the same basis as elsewhere in England." The Department of Health said: "We have gone further than ever before to put mental health on a par with physical health and have instructed the NHS to make sure every community does the same." How would you rephrase that in a few words?
Mental health services in Norfolk and Suffolk have been "dramatically underfunded" by £30m over four years, according to the chief executive of a foundation trust.

Generate an imaginary product review titled: Buy "The Healer" instead. Review:
This is a very tiresome movie. The major characters are mostly caricatures, and the ruminations of the main character (played by Noah Taylor) are neither insightful nor funny. The only sympathetic character is played by Miranda Otto. I wondered why this young woman would be attracted to a self-absorbed bore like Noah Taylor. This happens only in the fantasies of the self-absorbed and boring writers of the script. Another offensive aspect of this movie is its lame satire of Christianity. Again there is no characterization of the Adventists, only caricature. And after seeing what happens to the non-religious "drop outs," all I can say is: "Give me that old time religion!" It sure beats spending the rest of your life in a spiritual fallout shelter.

Extract the answer to the question from the following context. Question: What is behind Madonna in the "Like a Prayer" video? Context: Academics noted that with her videos, Madonna was subtly reversing the usual role of male as the dominant sex. This symbolism and imagery was probably the most prevalent in the music video for "Like a Prayer". The video included scenes of an African-American church choir, Madonna being attracted to a statue of a black saint, and singing in front of burning crosses. This mix of the sacred and the profane upset the Vatican and resulted in the Pepsi commercial withdrawal. In 2003, MTV named her "The Greatest Music Video Star Ever" and said that "Madonna's innovation, creativity and contribution to the music video art form is what won her the award."

Synthesize these documents into a single one: - WASHINGTON ― North Carolina Governor-elect Roy Cooper (D) doesn’t have time for the “partisan, political games” being played by state Republicans. Republican lawmakers hastily introduced Senate Bill 4 and House Bill 17 in the state legislature late Wednesday night. Both bills would heavily limit the governor’s power if passed. The incoming governor would not be able to make appointments to certain departments, the State Board of Elections would be effectively rendered useless and potentially unconstitutional bills would be more difficult to challenge in the courts. But Cooper made it clear during a press conference on Thursday that if he believes any legislation pushed by the Republican-controlled state Congress is unconstitutional, he will sue the parties responsible. “They will see me in court,” he said. “And they don’t have a very good track record there.” Republicans could hinder a multitude of public efforts with these bills, depending on which cabinet appointments they decide to revoke from Cooper. “Most people might think this is a partisan power grab, but it is really more ominous,” Cooper said. “It’s really about hurting public education, working families, state employees, health care and clean air and water.” He said that taking away the governor’s ability to make decisions on education policy could lead to public education being defunded and more emphasis being placed on private school vouchers. Similarly, if Cooper can’t appoint the leader of the state Department of Commerce, the result could be tax hikes for the middle class and small businesses. And if Cooper can’t select the head of North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services, it could lead to the end of Medicaid expansion, which could particularly hurt more rural parts of the state. Cooper said he’s open to working with Republicans, but said they’d have to find something else to agree on other than removing money from public education or harming the public’s health. - Responding to the General Assembly’s effort to limit his power before he takes office Jan. 1, Gov.-elect Roy Cooper said it’s time for lawmakers to go home. “Major changes in the way state government operates should be done deliberately, with input from all parties, particuarly something as important as elections and making sure people have the opportunity to vote,” said Cooper, the Democratic attorney general who defeated Gov. Pat McCrory in last month’s election. “They shouldn’t be pushed through in the dark of night.” Cooper made the comments at a press conference Thursday morning. A day earlier, lawmakers who had come to Raleigh to respond to Hurricane Matthew called a surprise special session once they had finished approving McCrory’s disaster-relief package. In the new session, they unveiled a series of proposals including one that would diminish the governor’s authority to make appointments. Members of the Republican-controlled legislature called for making Cooper’s Cabinet appointments subject to approval by the state Senate and eliminating his ability to appoint members to UNC schools’ boards of trustees. Another proposal aims to evenly split election boards between the political parties rather than keep them under control of the governor’s party.

But this is more ominous,” Cooper told reporters. SHARE COPY LINK Find out what's behind a surprise special session of the N.C. General Assembly where Republicans are pushing to strip powers from Governor-elect Roy Cooper. He said Republicans aim to reduce air and water protections and change education policies, including larger class sizes and budget shifts. Cooper said he’s willing to compromise with the legislature. He mentioned the possibility of using incentives to keep people employed who are losing jobs at factories in Senate leader Phil Berger’s district, including the... - RALEIGH, N.C. — There have been four years of civil disobedience, reputation-bruising boycotts over bathroom access, and legal battles over voting laws and gerrymanders. The election for governor, fraught with Republican challenges, took a month to settle. But if anyone here thought that the Democrat Roy Cooper’s victory in that race would open a new era of cooperation and calm in this bitterly divided state, all they had to do was listen on Thursday to the bellowing voice of Evan Hughes, a lettuce farmer from Durham. Around noon, Mr. Hughes, 35, was in front of North Carolina’s legislative offices with a child in his arms, berating the executive director of the state Republican Party for the group’s gambit to strip Mr. Cooper of many of his powers as governor before he even takes office. “We’re talking about changing the rules at the last minute,” Mr. Hughes said. “The people of North Carolina are sick and tired of the G.O.P.’s antics — anti-democratic antics. It is embarrassing to the people of North Carolina.” Dallas Woodhouse, the Republican official, had initially tried to engage Mr. Hughes. But he eventually fled into the building, where lawmakers from his party introduced a flurry of bills during a surprise special session this week to undermine Mr. Cooper by stripping him of his ability to make key appointments to state and local boards and mandating, for the first time, legislative approval of his cabinet.
Incoming Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper is threatening legal action a day after North Carolina Republicans called a secret special session to limit his future powers, the News and Observer reports. “Most people might think this is a partisan power grab, but it is really more ominous,” the Huffington Post quotes Cooper as saying. “It’s really about hurting public education, working families, state employees, health care, and clean air and water.” Republicans in the General Assembly introduced two bills Wednesday. They focused on limiting the governor's power to appoint cabinet members and education board members. Outgoing Republican Gov. Pat McCrory could sign the new bills into law before he leaves office, the New York Times reports. Cooper says the result of Republicans' "partisan, political games" could be the defunding of public education, tax hikes on the middle class, and the end of Medicaid expansion. He says the state attorney general is looking at all bills being put forward during the special session to see if they're constitutional. If not: “They will see me in court. And they don’t have a very good track record there.” In the end, Cooper has one piece of advice for lawmakers, who aren't supposed to be meeting until next month: "Go home."

The caps did not fit the bottles on my Bemis 497-300 humidifier. They looked like they would fit but the thread size was wrong. The caps I was sent had four crenelation-gaps around the edge, whereas the ones on my unit (and the ones in the photo) only have two gaps or notches. I contacted the vendor and was told that they "should" fit. Ultimately I had to return these and order from another source - and those did work. The vendor did give me a full refund but I was out the cost of shipping back the misrepresented item.

Everyone seems to love this place, and I've tried to like it, but I can't say I'm a fan. Drink quality is up to par, but it would be great if the staff would occasionally get around to actually preparing the said drink instead of chilling out talking to one another while not making eye contact with a customer. This is one of the only places I've ever been where I get consistently frustrated by the service. Crazy that I would bother them by actually ordering food, right?\n\nYou also kind of have to duke it out for outlets at times, which doesn't make recovering from the lengthy ordering and waiting for your drink process any more fun.

In center field of Rangers Ballpark, we see George W. Bush (Josh Brolin) standing with a glove on his hand. He turns around and listens to the cheers greeting him as an unseen announcer introduces him to invisible crowds as the 43rd president of the United States of America.We then cut to a cabinet meeting in early 2002, where W is in a deep discussion about how soon they should respond to the recent terrorist attacks on their country by attacking the Axis of either evil or terror (they can't decide which it should be), although Colin Powell (Jeffrey Wright) is reluctant to go to war with either Iraq or Iran, given that it was a non-affiliated terrorist named Osama Bin Laden who was behind it, although both VP Dick Cheney (Richard Dreyfuss) and Condi Rice (Thandie Newton) are quick to remind him that both are terrorist holders. George Tenet (Bruce McGill) supports Colin in his way of thinking as Karl Rove (Toby Jones) and Donald Rumsfeld (Scott Glenn) laugh behind their hands at him. Eventually Axis of Terror is decided on and the war gets greenlit. Before the meeting is adjourned, W gets everyone together and has them bow their heads in prayer, although more than a few of them clearly don't have their heart in it.Thirty-six years earlier, in 1966, we see a much younger W at Yale during pledge week. W and the other fraternity pledges are being endured an alcohol-fuelled hazing the basement of their frat house. One of his fellow pledges is challenged to name as many brothers as he is able to, and he manages to get seven. Another brother challenges someone to beat that, and W steps forward and successfully names all of the frat brothers, stopping only when the lead brother tells him to and getting great cheers for being true Delta Kappa Epsilon material. W tells them that he is pledging the fraternity as a legacy to his father whom was also a plege there, but he states that he has no intrest in persuing his family's business legacy.We then cut to a jail several months later where W is calling his father, George...

Charlton Athletic supporter Daniel Boylett, 36, of Eltham, was arrested after trouble broke out at the match on 23 September 2015. He was found guilty at Croydon Crown Court of attempted damage for the attack on Kayla. He was also found guilty of violent disorder. Boylett was released on bail to be sentenced on 28 April. Crystal Palace, who are nicknamed The Eagles, adopted Kayla as a mascot in 2010. Who is Kayla the Eagle? The court heard handler Chris Belsey was walking around the Selhurst Park pitch with the bird on his forearm at the game. Prosecutor Daniel Higgins said "three or four fans were shouting abuse" at the pair when one leaned over the barrier and "threw a punch". He said Mr Belsey did not know if the punch had landed and Kayla "seemed unhurt", but "due to her delicate bone structure if she had been hit with force, her bones could easily break". Four other men were on trial with Boylett over the trouble which marred the Capital One third-round tie. Mr Higgins said there had been trouble "before, during and after" the game. The first scuffles broke out as police escorted Charlton supporters to Selhurst Park. One officer suffered a cut lip after being hit by what he thought was a bottle as rival fans tried to break the police cordon, the court heard. At the end of the match, which Charlton lost 4-1, Donegan ran at police wielding a large yellow cone and had to be "subdued with a baton strike". After his arrest, he told police he was "annoyed" as "we just got battered. I picked it up and let my anger out". The jury were previously directed to acquit Cowcher, Boylett, Kitto and McConville on another count of violent disorder due to insufficient evidence. TL;DR:
A football fan has been found guilty of trying to punch Crystal Palace's bald eagle mascot during a cup game

Generate a news article that can be summarized as "Boss Paul Clement says Swansea City can stay in the Premier League if they perform as they did in the second half of their loss at Manchester City.". Article:
Media playback is not supported on this device The Swans were poor in the first half as Pep Guardiola's side led 1-0 through Gabriel Jesus' strike. Gylfi Sigurdsson levelled for the Swans after 81 minutes, but Jesus scored in injury time to give the hosts the win. "We have belief in each other that we're a good side and can play good football," Clement said. "We believe we can defend and we're going to need to do that as we've got 14 games to go and we have to do that in every one. "If we keep performing like we did in the second half, then I have belief that we will not be in the bottom three by the end of the season." Conceding late and not being able to see out a point was frustrating for Clement, who believed his side played well enough not to come away from the north west empty handed. "With nine minutes to go and the additional time, you're hoping that you can see that out and take a very valuable point," Clement said. "I'm not sure we deserved to win the game based on the way we played over the whole 90 minutes, but certainly enough to draw the game. "I'm very disappointed not only with the timing of the second goal, but the circumstances of it of it as well." Clement believes there are at least six teams who could be involved in fighting relegation as the season draws to a close. But he believes they have a lot to build on before facing fellow strugglers Leicester in a week's time. After Swansea's defeat, Manchester United won 3-0 at Leicester. That left the Foxes one spot above Swansea in 16th and tied on 21 points with Clement's team. "Certainly [Swansea can take credit] from the second half but not from the first half. "Hopefully it's given the team some additional belief that they can come anywhere and perform," he added. "They did that in the second half and that's something to build on."

Write a negative review with the title "An Absolute Joke". Review:
Take note of the other poor reviews, for they are right on the mark. What an absolute joke of a book. Congrats to the publisher for creating some good marketing copy around a solid premise - a backstage look at the lives of five different NBA players. Unfortunately, the book read more like Palmer's boring diary of being an NBA sycophant: picking up spillover chicks; the riveting drama of his hard drive crashing with his manuscript (Hello - are you a professional? can you say 'backup'? Can you say 'gmail yourself a copy of the word file'?); and most embarassingly - the glowing accounts of Palmer getting spiffed with free schwag from NBA players.Lots of stupid asides, a completely disjointed narrative, nothing whatsoever redeeming. Hopefully I just saved you a few bucks...

Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: Few issues. Mower was missing blades of grass from first use and on. Suction power...sucks. Does not pick of many leaves and small twigs within grass. Blade is contoured so it can be difficult to sharpen. Wheel adjustment is nice to have a one touch for all wheels, but is horrible for when mowing around lawn edges (sidewalks and flower beds). Its nice to set one side slightly higher or lower to run mover off edge of lawn but still keep a level cut. Not possible with this mower. Just means more manual trimming. Mower is fairly quiet. Construction is decent, no overly loose or cheap feeling parts (yet). Mulching and bagging works just fine. If you need a larger mower or one with more power, you don't want an electric mower to begin with. Answer:
Yes

Please answer correctly the following question related to the paragraph below. Which boy agreed that the biosphere is its own living organism? Two boys read about the Earth, Evolutionism and the Gaia hypothesis. Brad liked Evolutionism more, while Stan preferred the Gaia theory, and agreed with it. Hint: The Gaia hypothesis states that the biosphere is its own living organism. The hypothesis suggests that the Earth is self-regulating and tends to achieve a stable state, known as homeostasis . For example the composition of our atmosphere stays fairly consistent, providing the ideal conditions for life. When carbon dioxide levels increase in the atmosphere, plants grow more quickly. As their growth continues, they remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In this way, the amount of carbon dioxide stays fairly constant without human intervention.

What are the key points across these news articles: Article: Some story lines just never get old -- star-crossed lovers, mistaken identity, lizard men from outer space.It's impossible to tiptoe around the main plot device of ABC’s “V” -- those aliens may be smart and purty but they're up to no good -- because it is, of course, a remake of the 1983 miniseries . And even if it weren't, writers Kenneth Johnson and Scott Peters have infused the pilot with as many sly sci-fi references as CG special effects.'V': The review of the television series "V" in Tuesday's Calendar section said the pilot was written by Kenneth Johnson and Scott Peters. As the writer of the original miniseries, Johnson was given a "story by" credit. Peters wrote the pilot. Also, the review referred to a character delivering a message in English, French and Egyptian. The language of Egypt is Arabic. —Which are pretty terrific, as is the pilot in general. Although fans of the first "V" may find themselves longing for Richard Herd's Supreme Commander in his jaunty jumpsuit and funky glasses, this "V" is not only sleeker, faster and more visually gripping, it promises to be thematically more compelling.Its opening sequence is a masterpiece of back-story compression. What appears to be a temblor startles a series of characters (and an almost flawless cast gathered from various sci-fi hits): Erica Evans ("Lost's" Elizabeth Mitchell) is an anti-terrorism agent with the FBI and divorced mother of Tyler (Logan Huffman), a basically decent but rebellious teen. Chad Decker (Scott Wolf from "Party of Five") is a newscaster who aspires to do more than "read the news"; Father Jack Landry (Joel Gretsch of "The 4400") is a young priest working among the homeless; and Ryan Nichols (Morris Chestnut) has just purchased the engagement ring he hopes to offer Valerie (Lourdes Benedicto).All of their plans are put on hold, however, when the quake turns out to be the arrival of an enormous spaceship, one of a matched set now hovering over all the major cities of the world. But even as the throngs prepare for the requisite... Article: In fact, their planet is actually a lot nicer and cleaner than ours, because they spent all their time making scientific and technological advances instead of poisoning their delicate ecosystem with carbon emissions and spray tans and "Two and a Half Men" reruns. Besides, how rude is it to show up at someone's galactic doorstep without inviting them to your solar system first? Of course they say they're in desperate need of our valuable resources, because it sounds a lot better than admitting that once they mastered quantum physics and nanotechnology and the like, they got bored and decided to tool around the universe, looking for fun ways to fuck shit up. Aliens are so alienating. They're from planets in galaxies far, far away, for one thing. Most of us don't even like people from Nevada. And they're so smug about having figured out light-speed travel faster than we did. Who wants friends who make you feel bad about yourself all the time? I think poor, lonely George Clooney knows the answer to that one. But don't confront them -- if decades of sci-fi movies have taught us anything, it's that aliens respond to direct confrontation by sucking our brains out of our ears. Just smile and say, "It was so nice of you to drop by! Please, take a few dozen silos of partially hydrogenated soybean oil when you go – we'll never finish them by ourselves." We are of peace With all of that preening and posturing and spreading terror throughout the universe that aliens do, it's incredible that they come from a world of serious scholars and scientists. Did they do all the hard work centuries ago, only to devolve into a land of idle troublemakers and slithering intergalactic playboys? This is why I'm all worked up over ABC's "V" (premieres 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3). Its aliens not only swoop down and hover over our major metropolises, scaring the living daylights out of us with their dulcet newscaster tones and their big, honest brown eyes, but they claim they can share the cure to some of our deadliest... Article: TV Marks Obama Anniversary with Documentaries, Aliens It's Election Day in America. One election day ago, Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, and TV is marking the anniversary with two earnest documentaries—and an alien invasion. I exaggerate, but only a little. ABC's V, which debuts tonight, may not be intended as an Obama allegory, but it has enough parallels with the issues, concerns and paranoid fantasies of today's politics that they were either included to pique interest, or created accidentally by the typing of a million monkeys who had never seen cable news. First the earnest documentaries. Showtime's Poliwood, directed by Barry Levinson, which aired last night, possibly deserves credit for passionately trying to make the thankless argument that Hollywood celebrities do so have the right to inject themselves into politics. The film, which largely tracked celebrity efforts in the 2008 election, had a reasonable enough premise: that celebs interested in politics are no more or less automatically vapid than plenty of others who get to stick their oars in (donors, other politicians, many pundits), but ultimately a film defending the fairly privileged from the oppressive experience of people saying snarky things about them has to be exceptional to be compelling, and Poliwood wasn't. HBO's By the People: The Election of Barack Obama, airing tonight, is better made and more engrossing, mainly because it had extensive access to an actual political campaign. Filmmakers Amy Rice and Alicia Sams started shooting film in 2006 with an Illinois Senator who had made a popular speech at a convention. As it progresses into the primaries, the filmmakers got a probably unmatched amount of time with Obama's family—particularly daughters Sasha and Malia, who have since been in the press only sparingly—and with his campaign operation, which provides the film's real meat and emotional impact. Spending late nights with exhausted volunteers who gave themselves to the campaign—and watching...
Most critics agree that ABC’s much-hyped alien drama V is a well-made show with good acting. But does this remake of the 1983 miniseries feel original? Is it a conservative screed? Here’s what they’re saying: Who cares if V is believable (it’s not)? All Heather Havrilesky wants is for “these aliens to be a little bit different than the last imaginary aliens.” But as she writes for Salon, V swiftly gets to the business of “building a resistance,” and “suddenly this might as well be Fringe or The X-Files or any one of hundreds of shows” with conspiracies and aliens. Okay, sure, writes Mary McNamara for the LA Times, “but just because something's a chestnut doesn't mean it isn't worth watching.” Overall the pilot is “pretty terrific.” It’s the same old tale in a “fine, fun and attractive package.” But the Obama parallels—the aliens conquer humanity on good looks and universal health care—are pretty distracting, says James Poniewozik in Time.“I checked the production notes to make sure Glenn Beck was not credited as the screenwriter.” Still, it’s hard to get worked up over the show’s “B-movie politics.”

I have a test where I am given the following article, what is an answer for the question: What is the real last name of the person that was raised on the Balkan Peninsula? ? Notorious mob boss James "Lucky" Lombardi looks back upon his life and career on the night of his execution. The flashbacks picks up when Lucky, born and raised on the Balkan Peninsula, tries to marry into money and goes to the U.S. to find himself a wealthy bride. He has no luck, despite his name, and instead makes an attempt to bluff his way forward, pretending to be count De Kloven, a rich aristocrat. As De Kloven, Lucky gets hired to escort the prominent socialite Mrs. Lola Morgan, but quits when she wants him to be her lover. Instead he tries a new disguise, as Rudolph Von Hertsen, and gets involved in another racket with a Dr. J.M. Randall, performing abortions and selling unwanted babies. When the racket is disclosed, Lucky moves on to the business of pimping young women into prostitution. He goes as far as to trick naive young women into laying their lives in his hands, selling them as sex-slaves, thus entering into the business of white slavery. He soon becomes the head of such an organization. His right-arm man, Nick goes to lengths to get new merchandise for the business, and kidnaps Dorothy, a young, blonde schoolgirl. The election of a new ambitious district attorney causes Lucky problems, but he refuses to slow down. Lucky falls in love with a beautiful woman named Lois, but his affections are not returned, and she has to run for her life from his long lawless arms, with the help of one of Lucky's more goodhearted men, Harry. When Lucky discovers what Harry has done he has him killed, and is ultimately arrested and convicted of murder. The new district attorney manages to get him sentenced to death. We return from the flashbacks to present time, where Lucky has learned his lesson: that crime doesn't pay.

What details would you include in a storyline to make it more engaging and informative? Europe take on USA in the Ryder Cup at Gleneagles September 26-28 . Paul McGinley wants his players to walk out 'like gladiators' Lee Westwood admits the rookies will feel intimidated by atmosphere . Graeme McDowell has experienced pressure of playing the first and last shots in the competition .
Ryder Cup veteran Lee Westwood called it a cauldron and Graeme McDowell rated his experience as bizarre, but European Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley wants his players to take on the stature of gladiators when they walk onto the first tee at Gleneagles. Every individual handles the occasion differently, but what they will have to cope with, starting from Friday, is the pressure which comes with the fevered atmosphere of the hugely anticipated clash against the United States. The walk to the first tee goes through a tunnel under a road, and McGinley likened the players' emergence on the other side to that of gladiators entering the arena. Europe captain Paul McGinley (L), speaking to Ian Poulter, wants his players to walk out like 'gladiators' McGinley would prefer his players did not take golf buggies to the first tee at Gleneagles . Westwood, in his ninth Ryder Cup, knows what that feels like. 'I was nervous on the first tee at Valderrama (his debut in 1997) and that was without the 3,000 seats at the first tee and all the hype,' he said. 'I would imagine for the rookies it's going to be a bit of a shock. It's a bit of an intimidating atmosphere, but nothing they can't handle. 'It really gets you going and gets the juices flowing. It's changed a lot, though. 'It's getting more and more like a cauldron-type atmosphere, an amphitheatre to get your round off. 'Nothing prepares you for the Ryder Cup and getting on the first tee there and the atmosphere. 'I played with Tom Lehman in the singles in 1999 and he got the crowd to sing the national anthem. That was sort of the build-up to the atmosphere that there is now really around the first tee.' Lee Westwood, practicing at Gleneagles, admits being nervous before making his 1997 Ryder Cup debut . Europe's leading player Rory McILroy (R) listens to Martin Kaymer during a practice round . As the players stand on the first tee, in their eye-line will be a quote from the late, great Seve Ballesteros posted on the back of the 18th grandstand which reads: 'As a player...

Speculation that the Ashkenazi arose from Khazar stock surfaced in the later 19th century and has met with mixed fortunes in the scholarly literature. In late 2012 Eran Elhaik, a research associate studying genetics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health, argued for Khazar descent in his paper The Missing Link of Jewish European Ancestry: Contrasting the Rhineland and the Khazarian Hypotheses. A 2013 study of Ashkenazi mitochondrial DNA found no significant evidence of Khazar contribution to the Ashkenazi Jewish DNA, as would be predicted by the Khazar hypothesis. I want to know What did a 2013 study of Ashkenazi mitochondrial DNA find in regards to the Khazar descent idea?

Question: What does Frank and his sons decide to do? If there is no answer, please output "Insufficient information to provide an answer.". Movie title: She's the One Context: The film tells the story of two Irish Catholic Fitzpatrick brothers, Mickey (Edward Burns) and Francis (Mike McGlone) and the tribulations of love, family and betrayal. Mickey is a New York City blue-collared taxi driver, unhappy over an act of infidelity committed by Heather (Cameron Diaz), his ex-fiancée. Francis is a white-collared Wall Street stock investor, who unknown to his wife, Renee (Jennifer Aniston), is having an affair. During weekends, Mickey and Francis visit their parents who live on Long Island. Their mother is never seen on screen, while they have better time interacting with their father, Frank (John Mahoney), who always gives Mickey and Francis advice to live out their lives any way they can and to always go for what drives them to succeed. While driving his cab one day, Mickey picks up Hope (Maxine Bahns), an NYU art student with whom he becomes infatuated and impulsively marries after a few days. This causes consternation for his brother, largely because he was not asked to be best man at the wedding. Mickey moves in with Hope, but later becomes disillusioned with aspects of their lifestyle, including frequent power cuts in their ramshackle apartment. Francis is also having problems in his marriage. He is concerned that he is being unfair to Heather, his mistress, the same woman Mickey left, by continuing to stay with Renee. At the same time, Renee's Italian-American family, mostly her younger sister Molly (Amanda Peet), suggest the problem with Francis' lack of interest in her is that he may be gay, so she has Mickey and their father, Frank, confront him about it. He denies being gay, but admits to being unfaithful. Meanwhile, Francis' arrogance leads him to take potshots at his brother for the apparent lack of forward progression in his life with his wife, while Francis argues with Heather about her own sexual infidelity with a much older man referred to as "Papa". One day, Mickey picks up Heather in his cab and goes up to her apartment to retrieve a television that belonged to him...

First, read the Chinese article below. 除了含有丰富的蛋白质和维他命D(都对发丝强韧有很好的效果),鲑鱼还含有对头发健康极为有益的欧米伽-3脂肪酸。发干的3%是由欧米伽-3脂肪酸构成的,另外头皮中的细胞膜中,维持头皮和头发水分的油脂汇总也都含有该物质。 如果你不喜欢鲑鱼,那么也可以吃鲱鱼、沙丁鱼、鳟鱼或鲭鱼,牛油果和南瓜子也可以。 核桃是唯一一种含有丰富欧米伽-3脂肪酸的坚果,核桃中还含有丰富的生物素和维他命E,可以防止细胞DNA损伤。核桃还含有铜元素,一个可以维持头发光泽的微量金属元素。 用核桃油而不是菜籽油或红花油拌沙拉或者炒菜。 牡蛎含有丰富的锌元素,锌元素是人体必不可少的微量元素,缺少锌会导致头发(甚至眼睫毛)脱落,头皮干燥、产生头皮屑等问题。100克牡蛎就含有五倍你每日所需的锌含量。同时,牡蛎还含有丰富的蛋白质。 坚果、牛排、鸡蛋、麦片和全麦面包中也含有锌。 甜西红柿含有丰富的抗氧化剂β-胡萝卜素,在体内可以转化为维他命A。维他命A有助于头皮油脂分泌。缺少维他命A会导致头皮干燥,头皮瘙痒或头皮屑产生。 胡萝卜、哈密瓜、芒果、南瓜和杏子都含有丰富的胡萝卜素。 除了丰富的蛋白质,鸡蛋还还有四大微量元素:锌、硒、硫和铁。铁尤为重要,因为它可以帮助细胞携带氧进入头发的毛囊,而缺铁会导致贫血,尤其对女人来说,贫血还会造成头发脱落。 也可以通过吃动物制品补充铁元素,比如鸡肉、鱼肉、猪肉和牛肉等等。 菠菜含有非常多种人体必需的元素,比如铁、胡萝卜素、也算和维他命C等等,有助于毛囊健康和头皮的油脂平衡。 如果你不爱吃菠菜,可以尝试其他类似的多叶深色蔬菜,比如西兰花、甘蓝和莴苣等等。 豆类虽小,但作用大,它们含有丰富的蛋白质、铁、锌和生物素。这也是为什么素食主义者把豆类作为食物的重要组成部分的原因,当然食肉者也不例外。 酸奶含有很高的有益于头发的蛋白质、维他命B5(泛酸—一种你经常在护发产品标签上见到的元素)和维他命D,有益于毛囊生长。 也包括其他有相同作用的奶制品,比如干酪、脱脂乳酪和脱脂牛奶。 蓝莓对人体非常有益,其中大量的维他命C有助于保护发质。维他命C对于头皮的代谢,维持毛囊中小血管的供给有重要作用。维他命C的缺少会导致头发的损伤。 没有东西比家禽还有的蛋白质更多,同时还含有锌、铁、维他命B等等维持发丝强韧的元素。因为头发几乎全部是由蛋白质构成的,含丰富蛋白质的食物为强韧的发丝制造了坚实的基础。 瘦牛肉中也含有丰富的蛋白质。 尽管均衡膳食对于获取头发所必需的维他命含量是一个有效途径,然而吃一些维他命补充剂更容易确定你补充了一天需要的维他命含量。为保持头发健康最重要的5种维他命补充剂是生物素、维他命A、E、B5和纤维醇。 在吃补充剂之前要记得咨询医生。 Now, please write a short abstract for it in English.

The independent review set up by the Welsh Government said any form of exams in 2021 would be unfair. Exam regulator Qualifications Wales also said GCSE exams should be scrapped but some A-level papers should remain. Education Minister Kirsty Williams said she would consider both recommendations and announce a decision on 10 November.

Context: A CD is read by focusing a 780 nm wavelength (near infrared) semiconductor laser housed within the CD player, through the bottom of the polycarbonate layer. The change in height between pits and lands results in a difference in the way the light is reflected. By measuring the intensity change with a photodiode, the data can be read from the disc. In order to accommodate the spiral pattern of data, the semiconductor laser is placed on a swing arm within the disc tray of any CD player. This swing arm allows the laser to read information from the centre to the edge of a disc, without having to interrupt the spinning of the disc itself.; Question: Where is the photodiode? Is this question answerable?

Los Angeles, California (CNN) -- First-time winners and new shows took the lion's share of the hardware Sunday night at the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards. "Modern Family" beat out the heavily favored "Glee" for outstanding comedy honors, and wound up winning six Emmys out of 14 nominations while "Mad Men" and "Breaking Bad" continued their winning ways in the drama category. "We are thrilled that families are sitting down to watch a television show," said "Modern Family" creator Steven Levitan. "Thank you for letting us into your families." "The Pacific," which won seven Creative Arts Emmys last weekend and outstanding miniseries during the primetime show, was the overall champ, but the night's big winners were the TV movie "Temple Grandin," which won five Emmys for a total of seven.

Si un alimento es anaranjado o amarillo, es probable que tenga un alto contenido de vitamina betacaratono. Si bien, esta vitamina es buena para ti, también puede hacer que tu cabello, e incluso la piel, tomen un tono similar. Si tu cabello es amarillento, reduce la cantidad de zanahorias, camotes, melones o calabazas que comes. Como regla general, un adulto debe ingerir entre 6 a 8 mg de betacaroteno todos los días. Por lo general, equivale aproximadamente a 5 porciones de frutas o verduras mixtas. Si ingieres alrededor de 20 mg de betacaroteno (equivalente a 3 zanahorias grandes) en un día, puedes ver que el cabello o la piel se ponen amarillentos. Habla con el doctor sobre las estrategias para dejar de fumar. Considera usar un parche de nicotina o mascar goma como alternativa. Los gases y los químicos emitidos por el cigarro pueden adherirse al cabello poroso y amarillarlo. Cualquier tipo de producto que emita humo, incluso si es incoloro, puede alterar el color y la composición del cabello. Determinados medicamentos pueden alterar la apariencia de la piel, cabello o uñas. Si tienes el cabello amarillento y tomas medicamentos recetados, comunícale a tu doctor tus preocupaciones. Tendrás que describir cuidadosamente cuándo comenzó a cambiar el color y la textura del cabello. Por ejemplo, puedes decir, “Noté las primeras señales de tono cobrizo hace aproximadamente 3 semanas. También, comencé a sentir el cabello bastante quebradizo desde entonces”. El ditranol, un medicamento para la psoriasis, es solo una medicina que puede provocar la decoloración del cabello, junto con otros efectos secundarios. How would you rephrase that briefly using English?
Limit your consumption of beta-carotene-rich foods. Stop smoking. Talk with your doctor about any current medications.

It follows a bitter row amid claims they were being imposed on Wales. UKIP Wales leader Nathan Gill said it was time for the party to unite after members voted on a list approved by the national executive committee (NEC). Experts suggest UKIP could get nine AMs elected via the regional lists based on a recent ITV poll. Forty of the assembly's 60 members are elected on a constituency basis, as in general elections. The other 20 are elected in a second vote via regional lists, under a proportional system designed to give parties a share of seats that more closely reflects their share of the total vote across Wales. Regional lists are seen as UKIP's best hope of winning its first ever seats in Cardiff Bay. Mr Hamilton was chosen to head the regional list for Mid and West Wales, while Mr Reckless will be the lead candidate in South Wales East. NEC member Caroline Jones topped the list for South Wales West with former council candidate Gareth Bennett in South Wales Central. Mr Gill received the most votes and will be lead candidate in North Wales. "The Welsh membership have now had their say, and I am glad that that our list candidates for the Welsh elections have now been confirmed," he said. "Now is the time for all of us to move forward united and to campaign to bring real change to the political establishment in Cardiff Bay. "We have a great manifesto and a great message and I look forward to leading the UKIP Wales team from the front in the campaign ahead." A Welsh Labour spokesman said: "After such a drawn out and divisive process, it's pathetic that all UKIP are able to offer the people of Wales are a gaggle of failed Tories." Welsh Liberal Democrat leader Kirsty Williams claimed UKIP had "no interest in standing up for communities in Wales", urging supporters of other parties to back the Lib Dems with their second vote. How would you rephrase that in a few words?
Ex-Tory MPs Neil Hamilton and Mark Reckless are among the candidates chosen to top UKIP's assembly election regional lists.

My college roommate asked me what this article means: Gladwin joined QPR from Swindon in 2015 but only played 17 games for the club and has had four loan spells away. Three of those were back at Swindon, where he played 18 times, scoring twice, from January to May this year. The 25-year-old is Blackburn's fourth summer signing following their relegation to League One and comes a day after the arrival of Bradley Dack. Find all the latest football transfers on our dedicated page. So I recapped it in layman's terms:
Blackburn have signed midfielder Ben Gladwin from Queens Park Rangers for an undisclosed fee on a two-year deal.

Dialogue: W: One of the most interesting experiments with dolphins must be one done by Doctor Jarvis Bastian. What he tried to do was to teach a male dolphin called Bass and a female called Doris to communicate with each other across a solid barrier. M: So how did he do it exactly? W: Well, first of all, he kept the two dolphins together in the same tank and taught them to press levers whenever they saw a light. The levers were fitted to the side of the tank next to each other. If the light flashed on and off several times, the dolphins were supposed to press the left-hand lever followed by the right-hand one. If the light was kept steady, the dolphins were supposed to press the levers in reverse order. Whenever they responded correctly, they were rewarded with fish. M: Sounds terribly complicated. W: Well, that was the first stage. In the second stage, Doctor Bastian separated the dolphins into two tanks. They could still hear one another, but they couldn't actually see each other. The levers and light were set up in exactly the same way except that this time it was only Doris who could see the light indicating which lever to press first. But in order to get their fish, both dolphins had to press the levers in the correct order. This meant of course that Doris had to tell Bass whether it was a flashing light or whether it was a steady light. M: So did it work? W: Well, amazingly enough, the dolphins achieved a 100 % success rate. Question: How did the second stage of the experiment differ from the first stage? - Only one dolphin was able to see the light. - The male dolphin received more rewards. - Both dolphins were put in the same tank.
Only one dolphin was able to see the light.

Title: Covid blood protein offers clues for treatments\nGiven the above title of an imaginary article, imagine the article.\n
By Smitha MundasadHealth reporter The protein - known as GM-CSF - was found to be nearly 10 times higher in patients who went on to die from the virus. Scientists say that with further research, the protein could help identify those most at risk and provide clues for better targeted treatments for the disease. The work appears in Science Immunology. Researchers analysed blood samples from 470 patients admitted to hospital with Covid-19 in the UK, comparing them with samples from people with mild coronavirus, healthy people and stored samples from people who had previously had swine flu. They found several inflammatory proteins - part of the body's immune response - were raised in people who were ill, but only GM-CSF was specific to severe Covid-19. Scientists are concerned that while some of these inflammatory proteins help the body fight off the illness, others may do more harm than good by damaging organs. Dr Kenneth Baillie, at the University of Edinburgh, said: "By studying patients with severe Covid-19 at large scale across the UK, we're building a clearer picture of lung disease in Covid-19. "The lungs are being damaged by the patient's own immune system rather than directly being damaged by the virus, and we can see specific signals in the immune system that might be responsible." Researchers say further work will help them understand whether inflammatory proteins like GM-CSF are one of the factors driving severe disease, and whether dampening these proteins with specific drugs can help. Professor Peter Openshaw, of Imperial College London, said he hoped ultimately that the work would help find treatments that were more precise than some current therapies. He added: "The future that we all want to embrace is one in which instead of giving very broad acting, rather poorly understood immunosuppressive treatments like steroids, that we can actually begin to pinpoint some therapy that just takes out the specific pathway that is causing harm whilst allowing the rest of the immune system to...

By David McKennaBBC News For many the bike was the ultimate Christmas present, with the lucky children who received one seen proudly riding around the block on the big day - then reluctantly returning home for their dinner. David Powell, from Boston in Lincolnshire, remembers the excitement of seeing a brand new Sun GT bike in black glistening under the Christmas tree, especially after years of riding around on his sister's old ones. "I went all over on that bike and loved every minute of it," he says. "Whenever I see kids on bikes now I wonder if they have the same feelings." Those lucky enough to get a bike - and the cost meant they were out of financial reach for many parents - valued the freedom it offered above all else. Colin Peet, from Southport, was about 13 when he got a bike for Christmas. "Money was sparse back in the early 70s, especially with a family of seven," he says. "So my bike was a second-hand blue five-speed racer - and I loved it." For those of a certain age, the Raleigh Chopper was ubiquitous and topped many a Christmas list. The Nottingham-based company sold about 1.5m following its launch in 1969. Dan Metcalfe-Hall, from Grantham, says he was never lucky enough to get a Chopper despite repeated requests to the big man in red. However, he was given a different brand one Christmas and remembers trying to ride it in the snow with his friends. He doesn't think it's a scene that would be repeated today. "Children today don't know what they are missing and are too obsessed with digital devices," he says. Liz Collier, from Skegness, believes there is no comparison between high-tech gifts and the thrill of getting a bike on Christmas Day. "I remember my brothers setting it up for me and helping me to ride without stabilisers, and having lots of fun outside," she says. For those who look back fondly on their 25 December bikes, many memories are interwoven with another strand of nostalgia - the white Christmas. "I got a bike one year as a kid, and had to ride it up and down the... \n\nGive me a good title for the article above.

Information: - 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. - 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. - 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 Randstad is a megalopolis in the central-western Netherlands consisting primarily of the four largest Dutch cities (Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht) and their surrounding areas.

Article in French: La consommation de légumes frais est une excellente façon d'inclure des fibres dans votre repas. Les légumes vous aideront aussi à vous nettoyer la bouche et ils ne vont pas vous alourdir. Les salades ont tendance à être pauvres en calories, en graisses et en sel et riches en fibres. Partagez une portion de salade à la caprese. Demandez que le fromage et les croutons soient mis sur le côté. Vous pourrez en ajouter à la salade si vous en avez envie. Demandez aussi les sauces sur le côté. De nombreux restaurants mettent trop de sauce. Choisissez le vinaigre balsamique. Sa saveur acidulée va faire ressortir le gout des légumes. De nombreuses soupes italiennes contiennent peu de calories et sont riches en ingrédients comme les tomates, les haricots et l'ail. Le minestrone est une soupe italienne classique sans cholestérol qui contient des haricots riches en fibres et des légumes . Elle est délicieuse, consistante et elle peut vous aider à manger moins d'entrées tout en faisant varier les aliments de votre régime alimentaire. Le cioppini, une soupe à base de bouillon, contient du poisson et des fruits de mer, c'est une excellente option pauvre en graisses. Tout en étant pauvre en sodium, la variété des saveurs et des textures vous permettra de vous sentir satisfait avant de commencer à manger . Il existe de nombreuses entrées délicieuses servies dans les restaurants italiens. Essayez par exemple les poivrons farcis et la peperonata (des poivrons en ragout), une parmigiana d'aubergines ou des carciofi alla romana (des artichauts à la romaine). Si vous choisissez les bons ingrédients, une pizza peut être un choix sain. En choisissant des légumes à la place de la viande et du fromage, vous pouvez avoir une pizza plus saine, plus intéressante et plus riche en gout. Essayez les tomates, les artichauts, les champignons, les épinards, les brocolis, les ognons, les olives, les piments et les poivrons. N'oubliez pas que les légumes contiennent beaucoup d'eau. Vous pourriez rendre la pizza trop molle si vous en mettiez beaucoup. Summary in English:
Enhance your appetite with salad. Order soup for an appetizer. Eat a few olives while you wait for your entree. Choose a vegetable-based main dish. Go wild with vegetable toppings on a pizza.
