After reading the article, write another sentence to add to it. There was nothing more mind-numbingly maddening in the aftermath of England’s worst World Cup exit yet than the immediate reaction of Peter Moores. ‘We thought 275 was chaseable. We’ll have to look at the data,’ said a coach now fighting to avoid his second ignominious exit from international cricket as the reality of an embarrassing group stage elimination sank in. Well, England should rip up their data along with their whole philosophy towards one-day cricket and start again. Peter Moores faces an uncertain future following England's humiliating exit from the 2015 Cricket World Cup England were beaten by 15 runs at the Adelaide Oval to make it four defeats against Test-playing nations - England were knocked out of the Cricket World Cup against Bangladesh - Coach Peter Moores spoke in the aftermath of looking at data in review - England should ignore that and rethink their entire one-day philosophy - The nation are the laughing stock of the cricketing world once again - England are light years off the World Cup's dynamic, vibrant teams - Moores and Paul Downton will have their positions brought under scrutiny - Joe Root should be given one-day captain's job and made team's focus

I'm trying to distill these articles down into one: Article: A truly inspiring weekend of #OFAction, organizing, and democracy. Check out some of the highlights and see how you can get involved today. Article: Health Insured, finally: Families put Obamacare to the real test Jan. 1, 2014 at 8:17 AM ET John Brecher / NBC News For the 2.1 million people who’ve signed up for health insurance under the new federal and state exchanges, Jan. 1 is when the rubber meets the road. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called it “an exciting new day in health care” as latest enrollment figures were released Tuesday. But for people like the Schulz family of Phoenix, Ariz., Rita Rizzo and Lou Vincent of Akron, Ohio, and Joyce Moore of Zionsville, Pa., it’s the first test of whether Obamacare will really work. They all say they’re relieved and excited to finally have new access to health care, and they hope that the rocky rollout of the exchanges under the Affordable Care Act will actually give way to the smooth delivery of vital medical services. “I’ve been afraid for the last three years to get preventive care, because if they found something, I couldn’t afford to treat it,” said Rizzo, 59, who runs a management training business with her husband. “I haven’t had any blood work in three years and my right hip is starting to give out.” Courtesy of A.P. Bolden Photogr But now that she and Vincent, 64, are covered by a new CareSource silver-level plan under the federal exchange, he’s insured for the first time in years after being denied by dozens of private plans because he has high blood pressure and diabetes. And Rizzo said they’ll pay $184 a month, with a $2,000 deductible and a maximum of $3,400 out of pocket, far less than the $400 a month and $6,000 deductible they were paying for her alone with a private plan. “The coverage is wonderful,” said Rizzo. “We’ll get prescription coverage. Right now, his prescriptions alone are $170 a month.” The Ohio couple are among the more than 2.1 million people to sign up under the federal and state exchanges and another 3.9 million new Americans who qualify for Medicaid, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services reported Tuesday. ... Article: A woman fills out her thoughts on the Affordable Care Act at the White House Youth Summit on the Affordable Care Act in Washington December 4, 2013. Hospitals and medical practices across the United States braced for confusion and administrative hassles as new insurance plans under President Barack Obama's healthcare law took effect on Wednesday. More than 2 million people enrolled in private plans offered under the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare, during the initial sign-up period for health benefits. Enrollment began in October and lasts through March, but Americans in most states had to enroll by last week to get coverage that takes effect with the start of the new year. A spokeswoman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, said there were no hiccups to report in the first day the plans were in effect. The expansion of coverage through the new plans is one of the main parts of the 2010 law, the most sweeping U.S. social legislation in 50 years. Over time, the law - which requires most Americans to buy insurance, offers subsidies to help low-income people get covered and sets minimum standards for coverage - aims to dramatically reduce the number of Americans who lack health insurance, which the U.S. government has estimated at more than 45 million. After a difficult October launch plagued by problems with the website used to enroll people in coverage, the focus for the government and healthcare providers has turned to what will happen beginning on Wednesday when patients with the new coverage start to seek care. The law still faces political and legal hurdles. Roman Catholic Church-affiliated organizations obtained last-minute court injunctions on Tuesday that gave them temporary exemptions from a part of the healthcare law that requires employers to provide insurance policies covering contraception. U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor granted one temporary injunction to... Article: WASHINGTON — Kathy Hornbach of Tucson is not wasting any time before using her new health insurance coverage, which took effect on New Year’s Day. Ms. Hornbach, 57, has an appointment with a cardiologist on Thursday for a stress test. “I’ve had some heart palpitations, and my mom’s side has a history of heart problems starting early,” she said Wednesday in a telephone interview. “So it’s mostly just to double-check that everything is O.K.” Ms. Hornbach, who has had breast cancer and retired early from the technology industry, said that insurance companies in Arizona had refused to cover her until about two years ago, when she got a policy with monthly premiums of $285 and a deductible of $5,500 a year. Last month, using the federal insurance exchange, she bought a midlevel silver plan with lower premiums and deductible. “It’s a better policy — lower out-of-pocket, more choice of doctors,” she said. “This is a very happy day.” Consumers around the country began using coverage provided by the new health care law on Wednesday, the same day that Medicaid expanded to hundreds of thousands of people in about half the states. Many provisions of the 2010 health care law offering new benefits and protections to consumers, including those with pre-existing conditions, also took effect. Continue reading the main story Video Hospitals said they were getting ready for an influx of newly insured patients, but many health care providers said the pace was slower than usual because of the New Year’s holiday. In a typical report, Clay Holtzman, a spokesman for Swedish Medical Center in Seattle, said the system’s hospitals were not seeing an immediate surge. “We might at some point down the road, since we have spent a lot of time informing uninsured patients of their options under the exchange and expanded Medicaid,” Mr. Holtzman said in an email. “But it depends on if those patients chose plans that include us.” Swedish is one of the largest hospital systems in the region, but Mr. Holtzman said...
After years of debate, legal proceedings, and technical glitches, health insurance purchased under ObamaCare began actually covering people yesterday, in what Kathleen Sebelius touted as an "exciting new day for health care." But on the ground health care providers weren't exactly inundated with new customers, in part, perhaps because of the holiday. "It's dead," one pharmacist tells the New York Times. "No one has come in today with a new insurance card or wanting us to look up their benefits under ObamaCare." Other stories from launch day: One major Seattle hospital said it was bracing for an influx of patients, but hadn't seen many. "We might at some point," a spokesperson said, "but it depends on if those patients chose plans that include us." It was excluded from the two biggest plans on the state's exchange. On the bright side, things did go smoothly—the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid had 10,000 agents on call to field questions or enrollment problems, but told Reuters that no hiccups were recorded. There are plenty of anecdotal success stories, too. The Times talked to a breast cancer survivor who was already using her new policy to get a stress test. "This is a very happy day," she said. NBC News likewise has the stories of three families who got new or greatly improved coverage through the exchanges, though it doesn't mention if they've used them yet. President Obama's Organizing for Action PAC has launched a website to broadcast such glowing testimonials, the Washington Post reports. But one Detroit provider said a patient had gotten sticker shock when discovering that the co-pay on a drug would be $84—far more than they were used to. They bought a cheaper alternative. And some providers still expect administrative headaches to crop up, noting that, due to oft-extended deadlines, many people will lack insurance cards. "It will be difficult to actually verify coverage," said the head of one Ohio primary care center. "That's my concern."

Article in Spanish: Si no sabes qué elegir, la carpa de tres estaciones es una buena elección. Se adapta a la mayoría de las necesidades básicas de acampar y está equipada para manejar el clima en primavera, verano y otoño. Este tipo de carpa es relativamente liviana, proporciona una buena ventilación en el calor del verano e incluye un toldo en el techo que evita la entrada de lluvia. Mientras que las carpas familiares tienden a ser un poco más pesadas, también tienen paredes altas y a veces incluso múltiples habitaciones que proporcionan mucho espacio y comodidad. Esta es una gran opción si acostumbras a ir a acampar en el auto, lo que significa conducir hasta el sitio en lugar de hacerlo a pie. También es una buena opción si acamparás con varias personas a la vez. Aunque se les llama carpas de cuatro estaciones, este tipo se fabrica específicamente para el clima invernal. En este tipo de carpas se pueden cerrar todas las ventilaciones y normalmente están hechas de materiales resistentes que pueden soportar vientos y nevadas extremas. Esta puede ser la mejor opción si sueles acampar en lugares fríos y nevados. Estas suelen diseñarse para albergar a una sola persona y priorizar el peso y la facilidad de empaque sobre el tamaño. Si sueles hacer viajes largos con mochila, busca una carpa que pese alrededor de un kilogramo (dos libras). Summary in English:

Article: (CNN) -- Ronnie Smith believed in three things: teaching, Libya and Jesus Christ. The 33-year-old educator from Austin, Texas, was gunned down Thursday as he went on a morning jog outside his home in the Libyan city of Benghazi. No one has claimed responsibility for the slaying. Libyan authorities have pledged to investigate the killing, the latest in a series of assassinations in some Libyan cities. There have been near-daily targeted killings in Benghazi and Derna, with the victims mainly security forces, activists and members of the judiciary. Smith's death is a reminder of how dangerous eastern Libya has become, awash in weapons and armed groups since the 2011 ouster and street-mob killing of dictator Moammar Gadhafi. Highlights: - Ronnie Smith was a deacon in his church in Austin, Texas - He moved to Libya a year and a half ago and taught chemistry at International School Benghazi - Gunmen killed the 33-year-old as he jogged outside his home in Benghazi
- Lee said that Smith was not working as a missionary for the church in Libya but that the church does have missionary programs.

Generate a question that has the following answer: By helicopter for the following movie plot: Author and amateur astronomer John Putnam (Richard Carlson) and schoolteacher Ellen Fields (Barbara Rush) watch a large meteorite crash near the small town of Sand Rock, Arizona. They awaken a neighbor, who has a helicopter, and all three fly to the crash site. Putnam climbs down into the crater and notices a partially buried round object in the crater's pit. He comes to the realization, after he sees a six-sided hatchway close, that this isn't a meteorite but a large alien spaceship. The hatchway's noise starts a landslide that completely buries the craft. Putnam's story is later scoffed at by Sand Rock's sheriff (Charles Drake) and the local news media. Even Ellen Fields is unsure about what to believe but still agrees to assist Putnam in his investigation. Over the next several days, local people disappear; a few return, but they act distant or appear somewhat dazed. Convinced by these and other odd events, Sheriff Warren comes to believe Putnam's story that the meteorite is actually a crashed spaceship with alien inhabitants; he then organizes a posse to hunt down the invaders at their crash site. Putnam, however, hopes to reach a peaceful solution to the looming crisis. Alone, he enters a nearby abandoned mine, which he hopes will eventually connect to the now buried spaceship and its alien occupants. Putnam finally discovers the spaceship and learns from its crew that they crashed on Earth by accident; the aliens appear benign and only plan to stay on Earth just long enough to repair their damaged craft and then continue on their voyage. The aliens' real appearance, when finally revealed to Putnam, is entirely non-human: they are large, single-eyed, jelly fish-like beings that seem to glide across the ground, leaving a glistening trail that soon vanishes. They are also able to shape shift into human form using a telepathy screen in order to appear human and move around, unobserved, in order to collect their much needed repair materials. To do this, they copy the human forms of the local townspeople...
How did the Putnam get to the crash site?

Jenis yang Anda butuhkan akan tergantung pada karya yang ingin Anda persembahkan. Tas harus rapi dan bersih, tetapi jika Anda masih mahasiswa, tidak perlu tas mahal, cukup tas yang fungsional dan dapat memamerkan atau menyimpan karya Anda seefektif mungkin. Anda dapat membeli tas yang lebih bagus jika ingin mempresentasikan portofolio dalam lingkungan profesional. Tas presentasi berbentuk mirip binder, tetapi dilengkapi ritsleting dan di dalamnya Anda bisa menemukan lembaran pelindung dan paling cocok untuk karya yang lebih kecil. Tas ini memang dimaksudkan untuk “mempresentasikan” karya, dan mungkin menjadi pilihan terbaik jika Anda baru mulai menggeluti bidang ini. Jika memiliki karya berukuran lebih besar, seperti lukisan, Anda dapat membeli tas portofolio yang lebih besar dan dirancang untuk membawa suatu karya, bukan mempresentasikannya. Alih-alih memamerkan karya dalam wadah bergaya binder, Anda mungkin pada akhirnya hanya memiliki lembaran lepas dan hasil rancangan yang disusun dengan aman di dalam tas. Sering kali karya investigatif Anda, seperti tekstur atau struktur yang menarik, akan melibatkan banyak sampel kecil dan kliping. Idealnya, orang yang akan menilai portofolio Anda harus bisa membolak-balik halaman. Jadi, tempelkan semua karya yang lebih kecil di atas lembaran kertas ukuran kuarto sehingga lebih mudah diakses. Kelompokkan hasil rancangan berdasarkan jenis, atau susunlah dengan cara yang logis. Berikan label seperti “proyek warna” atau “metode glazing eksperimental” jika perlu, dan tambahkan beberapa baris atau paragraf kecil berisi penjelasan untuk menunjukkan apa yang Anda lakukan kepada pembaca.

The 36-year-old former Watford and West Bromwich Albion defender was without a club when he joined Blues on a one-month trial deal in September 2012. But this new contract, in a player-coach role, is his fourth for Blues as he continues to extend a career that now totals more than 700 appearances. Robinson has not figured since being sent off at Bournemouth on 6 April. But he has still clocked up 36 appearances this season, taking his total number of games in a royal blue shirt to 119. "Robbo is an influential person around the dressing room and been a good help to me since I've come in," Rowett told BBC WM. "And I still think he can offer something on the pitch. "There is an opportunity to become a squad defender and still be influential around the club and help some of the youngsters in a coaching capacity, maybe one or two days a week. "Sometimes it's hard to find someone that can offer a multitude of things. They can help the young players with that game understanding and that knowledge of winning things and doing things properly in football, because that's something you don't often get in academies. "Every time he pulled on the captain's armband he gave it everything he's got. He's a real winner and a real leader and sometimes I don't think there are enough of those around clubs in the game." === Given the above document, write one sentence to summarize:

Have you ever sat around and thought about how you’d create your dream kitchen if you had the chance? Well, we are on the verge of a move (whenever the house sells, we’ll move), and I keep thinking that I need to sit down and write a list of our “would likes” and our “must haves.” That way, when we are house hunting, we’ll already know what we’re looking for. For a chance to win an Un Amore custom-designed KitchenAid Stand Mixer from PartSelect, I have been thinking about the top three “would likes” for our new kitchen and decided to check out what KitchenAid has to offer! I discovered three appliances that would change our reality kitchen into a dream kitchen. We have two young boys that will change into tweens and teens before we know it. Big Brother has always been a good eater, open to trying just about anything we put in front of him. However, discovering that he actually does have some control over what he does, he’s lately turned up his nose on occasion. Little Brother is exactly like me when I was young. He turns his nose up at just about anything. Although he did just spend a week with his grandparents and decided he would eat and make up for lost meals…and make me out to be a liar! Anyway, I keep reminding myself as I find myself challenged at mealtimes, that soon enough, they’ll be eating us out of house and home. So, one of the larger dream kitchen appliances I’d like in our home would be a double oven! I just think it’d come in really handy when trying to keep up with their metabolism down the road! When you’re preparing a lot of food, you’re typically buying a lot of products, and the garbage and recycling bins fill up faster than ever as well. The second dream kitchen appliance I wouldn’t mind having would be the KitchenAid Trash Compactor, reducing our use of garbage bags and trips to the outside dumpster. Plus, I think I’d like not having to smell the garbage all the time! How long was the author picky about food?

Title: Ae, Garlieston and Kirkbean school closure consultation draws to an end\nGiven the above title of an imaginary article, imagine the article.\n
The consultation on the fate of schools in Ae, Garlieston and Kirkbean came to an end at 17:00 on Tuesday. The proposals have provoked parent-led campaigns against the moves and SNP MSP Joan McAlpine said they would have a "devastating impact on the community". When consultation began the three schools had 37 pupils in total with a combined capacity of nearly 200. If the closures are given the go-ahead, the primaries could shut by July next year. 'Rightly angry' Dumfries and Galloway Council's education committee agreed last year that officers should engage with schools where the pupil roll had fallen below 50% of capacity. It said the process would serve to "identify and rationalise" the use of its buildings. However, Ms McAlpine said she would fight the closures "every step of the way". "The strength of feeling in Ae and Kirkbean in support of their school is palpable, and I have been impressed with how the communities have come together to fight these proposals," she said. "Parents are rightly angry that the council is putting the future of their communities and their children's education at risk, particularly since there have been so many flaws in the consultation process." 'Detrimental effect' Galloway and West Dumfries Conservative MSP Finlay Carson also expressed his support for keeping the schools open. "Without a school in Garlieston or Kirkbean young families are much more likely to move from the area, which would have a hugely detrimental effect on these communities," he said. "I do not believe that Dumfries and Galloway Council have fully explored all of the options open to them to make these schools sustainable. "I fully support the parents, teachers and local communities of Garlieston and Kirkbean in their efforts to ensure that neither of these fantastic schools close their doors."

(CNN) -- Argentina's Supreme Court ruled Tuesday it is unconstitutional to punish an adult for private use of marijuana as long as it doesn't harm anyone else. A recent poll showed 29 percent of Americans believe the best way to deal with marijuana is to legalize it. The unanimous ruling makes Argentina the second Latin American country in the past four days to allow personal use of a formerly illegal drug. The case in question involved five young men who were arrested for having a few marijuana cigarettes in their pockets. Supreme Court Justice Carlos Fayt, who at one time supported laws that make personal use of marijuana illegal, told the state-run Telam news agency that "reality" changed his mind. Summary: - NEW: Argentina court: It's unconstitutional to punish adult for private use of marijuana - Justice tells state-run news agency "reality" changed his mind - Mexico enacted law that decriminalizes possessing low quantities of most drugs
- "The question," he said Tuesday, "is whether the Americans will be open to this new path."

By Mary-Ann RussonBusiness reporter, BBC News Ms Allsopp, from Rubery, West Midlands, fell in love with the character of "the Child" - affectionately known as "Baby Yoda" on social media - in the Disney+ TV show The Mandalorian as soon as she watched the first episode. She then scoured the internet looking for merchandise from the Star Wars spin-off series, and says she is willing to pay up to £200 for an accurate replica of the Child. She's not alone. Since The Mandalorian was released on 12 November in the US on Disney's new streaming service, the character has gone viral, and not just in America - one of the few countries where you can officially watch the show for now - but all over the world. It has generated thousands of memes as fans discuss how cute the Child is and speculate about what will happen next in the series.

nch - to unveil its range of vinyl and plush Child toys. Even worse, the figures will not be available until next May or June, failing to meet the frenzy of demand over the crucial Christmas shopping period. That's not stopped people pre-ordering the toys in droves. UK film and entertainment merchandiser Zavvi, which began selling the figures on Wednesday, says the Child is already one of its fastest-selling products with "hundreds" being snapped up in the first hour. According to Richard Gottlieb, head of toy industry consultancy Global Toy Experts, Disney's decision to keep the Child a secret will have a big impact on the toy industry. "It's a shame. On the consumer product side, it's an enormous amount of lost revenue for Disney, the licensees and the retailers, and a lot of lost excitement," he says. Typically it takes about nine months for a toy inspired by a film or TV show to be realised, from the inception of the idea until it hits the shelves. And it can take up to 15 months if the toy is being prepared for a Christmas release. In order to bring out a new toy product, licensing agreements need to be agreed, designs need to be approved and engineers need to create injection moulds for making the toys out of plastic at the factories in China. The product then needs to be manufactured and delivered from China to retailers around the world. So there is no way that Disney suddenly woke up to the hype surrounding the Child in November, says Mr Gottlieb. Plans for the toy have been underway since 2018 at least, he says. John Baulch, publisher of trade magazine Toy World, agrees, saying that delaying the launch was intentional on Disney's part. "Disney would have known that they had a breakout hit with the Child," he says. "But the Mandalorian's director, Jon Favreau, was quite insistent that he wanted the content of the series to lead, rather than the merchandise. In this instance the director won the argument." Alexander Westwood, 19, a TV and film actor from Birmingham, thinks Disney may...

Title: ...singable, pleasant, up-lifting... Review: I must admit that I bought this CD with the intent of copying one or two tracks off of it and then returning it to the music store for a full refund, as is the trend these days with so many people who are tired of paying full price for a CD that only has one or two good songs on it. Well, I decided to keep it because the CD has about 6 or 7 really good songs on it. The only problem I had with it was that Peter doesn't hit the high vocal ranges that he has in the past which make his sound so unique. But the quality of the songwriting and production makes this a good buy. Definitely one of his better solo releases... Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?

Information: - The Amiga 500 - also known as the A500 ( or its code name `` Rock Lobster '' ) - was the first `` low - end '' Commodore Amiga 16/32 - bit multimedia home / personal computer . It was announced at the winter Consumer Electronics Show in January 1987 - at the same time as the high - end Amiga 2000 - and competed directly against the Atari 520ST . Before Amiga 500 was shipped , Commodore suggested that the list price of the Amiga 500 was US $ 595.95 without a monitor . At delivery in October 1987 , Commodore announced that the Amiga 500 would carry a US $ 699 / £ 499 list price . In Europe , the Amiga 500 was released in May 1987 . In the Netherlands , the A500 was available from April 1987 for a list price of HFL1499 . The Amiga 500 represented a return to Commodore 's roots by being sold in the same mass retail outlets as the Commodore 64 - to which it was a spiritual successor - as opposed to the computer - store - only Amiga 1000 . The original Amiga 500 proved to be Commodore 's best - selling Amiga model , enjoying particular success in Europe . Although popular with hobbyists , arguably its most widespread use was as a gaming machine , where its advanced graphics and sound were of significant benefit . Amiga 500 eventually sold 6 million units worldwide . - The Consumer Electronics Show (commonly known as CES) is an annual trade show organized by the Consumer Technology Association. Held January at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, the event typically hosts presentations of new products and technologies in the consumer electronics industry. - The Amiga 2000, or A2000, is a personal computer released by Commodore in March 1987. It was introduced as a "big box" expandable variant of the Amiga 1000 but quickly redesigned to share most of its electronic components with the contemporary Amiga 500 for cost reduction. Expansion capabilities include two 3.5" drive bays (one of which was used by the included floppy drive) and one 5.25" bay that could be used by a 5.25" floppy drive (for IBM PC compatibility), a hard drive, or CD-ROM once they became available. - Motorola, Inc. is an American multinational telecommunications company based in Schaumburg, Illinois, United States. After having lost $4.3 billion from 2007 to 2009, the company was divided into two independent public companies, Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions on January 4, 2011. Motorola Solutions is generally considered to be the direct successor to Motorola, Inc., as the reorganization was structured with Motorola Mobility being spun off. Motorola Mobility was acquired by Lenovo in 2014. - Nevada (Spanish for "snowy"; see pronunciations) is a state in the Western, Mountain West, and Southwestern regions of the United States of America. Nevada is the 7th most extensive, the 34th most populous, and the 9th least densely populated of the 50 United States. Nearly three-quarters of Nevada's people live in Clark County, which contains the Las VegasParadise metropolitan area where three of the state's four largest incorporated cities are located. Nevada's capital is Carson City. Nevada is officially known as the "Silver State" because of the importance of silver to its history and economy. It is also known as the "Battle Born State", because it achieved statehood during the Civil War (the words "Battle Born" also appear on the state flag); as the "Sage-brush State", for the native plant of the same name; and as the "Sage-hen State". Nevada borders Oregon to the northwest, Idaho to the northeast, California to the west, Arizona to the southeast and Utah to the east. - The Motorola 68000 ("'sixty-eight-thousand'"; also called the m68k or Motorola 68k, ""sixty-eight-kay"") is a 32-bit CISC microprocessor with a 16-bit external data bus, designed and marketed by Motorola Semiconductor Products Sector (later Freescale Semiconductor, now NXP). Introduced in 1979 with HMOS technology as the first member of the successful 32-bit m68k family of microprocessors, it is generally software forward compatible with the rest of the line despite being limited to a 16-bit wide external bus. After 37 years in production, the 68000 architecture is still in use. - AmigaOS is the proprietary native operating system of the Amiga and AmigaOne personal computers. It was developed first by Commodore International and introduced with the launch of the first Amiga, the Amiga 1000, in 1985. Early versions of AmigaOS required the Motorola 68000 series of 16-bit and 32-bit microprocessors. Later versions were developed by Haage & Partner (AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9) and then Hyperion Entertainment (AmigaOS 4.0-4.1). A PowerPC microprocessor is required for the most recent release, AmigaOS 4. - The Amiga is a family of personal computers sold by Commodore in the 1980s and 1990s. Based on the Motorola 68000 family of microprocessors, the machine has a custom chipset with graphics and sound capabilities that were unprecedented for the price, and a pre-emptive multitasking operating system called AmigaOS. The Amiga provided a significant upgrade from earlier 8-bit home computers, including Commodore's own C64. - Home computers were a class of microcomputers entering the market in 1977, and becoming common during the 1980s. They were marketed to consumers as affordable and accessible computers that, for the first time, were intended for the use of a single nontechnical user. These computers were a distinct market segment that typically cost much less than business, scientific or engineering-oriented computers of the time such as the IBM PC, and were generally less powerful in terms of memory and expandability. However, a home computer often had better graphics and sound than contemporaneous business computers. Their most common uses were playing video games, but they were also regularly used for word processing, doing homework, and programming. - The IBM System/360 introduced byte-addressable memory with 8-bit bytes, as opposed to bit-addressable or decimal digit-addressable or word-addressable memory, although its general purpose registers were 32 bits wide, and addresses were contained in the lower 24 bits of those addresses. Different models of System/360 had different internal data path widths; the IBM System/360 Model 30 (1965) implemented the 32-bit System/360 architecture, but had an 8 bit native path width, and performed 32-bit arithmetic 8 bits at a time. - The Commodore Amiga 1000, also known as the A1000 and originally simply as the Amiga, is the first personal computer released by Commodore International in the Amiga line. It combines the 16/32-bit Motorola 68000 CPU which was powerful by 1985 standards with one of the most advanced graphics and sound systems in its class, and runs a preemptive multitasking operating system that fits into of read-only memory and shipped with 256 kB of DRAM. The primary memory can be expanded internally with a manufacturer supplied 256 kB module for a total of 512 kB of DRAM. Using the external slot the primary memory can be expanded up to After reading the paragraphs above, choose the best answer for the entity that related to 'amiga 500' with the relationship of 'manufacturer'.

Around the world, there are many traditional and ancient starch-based drinks classed as beer. In Africa, there are various ethnic beers made from sorghum or millet, such as Oshikundu in Namibia and Tella in Ethiopia. Kyrgyzstan also has a beer made from millet; it is a low alcohol, somewhat porridge-like drink called "Bozo". Bhutan, Nepal, Tibet and Sikkim also use millet in Chhaang, a popular semi-fermented rice/millet drink in the eastern Himalayas. Further east in China are found Huangjiu and Choujiu—traditional rice-based beverages related to beer. Find the answer to: What are various beers made from in Ethiopia?

Could you please generate a TLDR (Too Long Didn't Read) summary of the following news article? Article: (CNN) -- A young blogger arrested in Iran for allegedly insulting supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in an Internet posting has died in prison, his attorney said Friday. The blogger had been jailed for allegedly insulting Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in an internet posting. Attorney Mohammad Ali Dadkhah said Omid Mir Sayafi, reported to be in his 20s, died in Evin prison, which is located in Tehran and known for its wing that holds political prisoners. Dadkhah said a fellow inmate, Dr. Hessam Firouzi, called him Wednesday night with the news -- and said he believed Sayafi would have lived if he received proper medical care. Dadkhah said Firouzi, an imprisoned human-rights activist, said that he carried a semi-conscious Sayafi to a prison doctor but that he didn't receive the care he needed. "It was Dr. Firouzi's opinion that if he would've received proper medical attention, he would not have died," Dadkhah said. He said Sayafi was buried on Thursday and that his calls to the prison asking for an explanation have not been returned. Dadkhah said Sayafi "sounded OK" at about 2 p.m. on Wednesday when he last spoke to him by telephone. He said the blogger asked for a book about Nowruz, the Iranian New Year, which begins Friday. The International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, which advocates for activists in the country, quoted Firouzi on its Web site as saying Sayafi suffered from depression and had taken extra doses of medication on Wednesday. The group blamed Iran's government for unsafe conditions in its prisons. "Iranian leaders have relegated the administration of the prison system to a group of incompetent and cruel officials who are showing their utter disregard for human life," said Hadi Ghaemi, spokesman for the campaign. "If the authorities do not move quickly to hold negligent officials responsible, they are reinforcing impunity and the lack of accountability." Sayafi was first arrested in April, then released for 41 days before being arrested again. He was sentenced to 2½ years in prison for...

Article: Bursting into the classroom from recess, 15 children take their seats and face the woman they know as Ms. Yang. "What day is it today?" she asks, in Mandarin Chinese. "Confucius' birthday!" the fifth graders shout in Mandarin. "Why do we celebrate Confucius' birthday?" "Because he's the greatest teacher in the history of China!" exclaims a brown-haired girl. She is speaking Mandarin. English is rarely heard in Lisa Yang's class at the Chinese American International School(CAIS), despite the fact that few students are native speakers of Mandarin. The United States is actively trying to increase the group of students in "critical languages" such as Mandarin. The students at CAIS are way ahead in such a trend. Founded 25 years ago, this small private school in San Francisco, USA, does what few other American schools do: It produces fully fluent speakers of Mandarin Chinese, by far the most commonly spoken language in the world. Mandarin Chinese is suddenly hot in American schools. As China becomes the world's leading economy sometimes this century, schools in the U. S. are _ to add Mandarin to their list of foreign languages or expand Chinese programs already in place. "It really is almost unprecedented. People are looking at China as a force to be reckoned with... And to ensure that the U. S. has the ability to conduct trade, and to work with the Chinese. Certainly having an understanding of Chinese language and culture is an advantage," said Marty Abbott of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages(ACTFL). To develop Chinese-language programs has not been smooth. A shortage of trained teachers has made it difficult for some schools to join the race. When schools do get teachers, they often hire them straight from China, and the teachers usually suffer culture shock when they come to the U. S.

Quanto maior e mais larga ela for, mais tecido você terá para trabalhar, tornando a amarração e o nó mais fáceis. Junte seus dedos indicador e polegar para formar um O. Passe a bainha de sua camiseta dentro do O até que o tamanho esteja confortável em sua cintura. Aperte seu polegar contra o tecido e embrulhe a ponta em volta dos seus indicador e do meio a fim de formar um laço. Puxe a ponta pelo laço e puxe-a para firmar o nó. Coloque a ponta por baixo do nó caso queira escondê-la. Junte duas partes da sua camiseta na bainha, 1 com cada mão. Passe a ponta esquerda pela ponta direita, e puxe por baixo e para cima através da abertura - como você faria para amarrar cadarços de tênis. Puxe as duas orelhas para apertar o nó. Faça uma forma de O com seus dedos polegar e indicador. Passe sua mão por baixo da camiseta e puxe um pouco de tecido através do O até que fique confortável no seu corpo. Aperte seus dedos contra o tecido, embrulhe o elástico em volta dele, logo abaixo do seu punho. Solte o tecido quando estiver pronto. O tecido que foi amarrado deve estar por dentro da sua camiseta. Assim, o tecido irá sair pela parte amarrada na frente. Quanto mais apertada você deixar a camiseta, mais longe da bainha você precisará ir. Você não deixará a ponta visível. Em vez de amarrar seu nó na frente, experimente amarrá-lo na parte de trás. Você pode até mesmo colocá-lo de lado para variar o visual, e se quiser mostrar um pouco mais do abdômen, basta levantar a bainha e amarrar o nó mais apertado. TL;DR in English:

Article in English: If you are on a dinner shift, you must thoroughly clean all drains as much as you can. Treat the area as your own kitchen and clean it out as much as you can. When you are finished rinsing your final load, this is typically when all servers, cooks, and bussers are gone. Depending on how exhausted and soaked you are, the first thing on your mind is liable to be: Bunch dishes in the easiest spots available, clock out, and hit the road. You must condition yourself to be patient and complete everything to near-perfection before walking out the door. Learn to persist in putting each and every item away in its appointed place, so your co-workers can easily find everything the next day. . Garbage take-out usually lands on the dishwasher's list of things to do, although some restaurant establishments have cleaning crews that handle this responsibility. Be safe when doing so. Taking out restaurant trash is never the same as normal trash, as it will include wet food, water, and other items that will weigh the bags down greatly.

Doc to summarize: A number of developments across the area have proved controversial and led to significant opposition campaigns. Now the council has moved to clarify advice offered to wind farm opponents and would-be developers. Planning committee chairman Jock Houston said the guidance "improved and tightened up" previous directions. He said it clarified what criteria developers would need to meet in order to see a wind farm approved. 'Delicate balancing act' However, he added that it also explained what grounds opponents could cite to seek refusal of a project. Mr Houston said that was part of a delicate balancing act facing the Borders. "Developers obviously go for the places where there is more wind and they can generate more electricity," he said. "But they are running up against people in the Borders and elsewhere who say: 'You cannot destroy this tremendous environment which we have inherited'. "So I think developers will realise it's going to be harder to convince the planning committee and reporters that they have a valid application." He said it would also "give comfort" to people who felt the Borders had already made its contribution to renewable energy targets. "Using this guidance we can say there are large areas where there shouldn't be any more or shouldn't be any at all," he said. \nSummary in the same language as the doc:
Councillors in the Scottish Borders have approved updated guidance on criteria to be applied to wind farm applications in the region.

Adelson, who Forbes magazine estimates is worth $24.9 billion and is ranked as the eighth-richest man in America, was largely responsible, along with his wife, Miriam, for keeping Newt Gingrich's presidential bid alive by giving $20 million to the super PAC backing the ex-House speaker's candidacy, Winning Our Future.

His routine on the pommel horse was the most-watched event of the day, with 9.4 million tuning in to the performance. The event also saw his team mate Louis Smith win a silver medal. Some 6.5 million also watched Whitlock receive Britain's first-ever Olympic gymnastics gold with victory in the men's floor two hours earlier. Due to the time difference between the UK and Brazil, TV ratings are generally lower for the Rio Olympics compared with London 2012 with much of the action happening overnight. In 2012, 20 million people tuned in to see Usain Bolt win the men's 100m final which aired at 21:50 BST. This year's final - which saw Bolt win a third successive 100m title - was aired at 02:25 BST on Monday morning. Ratings will not be known until Tuesday. The Olympic coverage has helped give BBC Four record ratings, with a peak audience of 3.3 million tuning in on Sunday night at 22:00 BST to watch Andy Murray in the men's tennis final. The Games has also given BBC Sport record online figures, with 19 million unique browsers on Super Sunday. Across the week, some 58.2 million global unique browsers have followed the action from Rio.

If you're only running cold water to your shower, chances are good you won't be spending hours getting wet. As such, drainage should not be a major concern. Still, you need some layer between your feet and the ground, otherwise you'll end up with dirty, muddy feet after every shower. Gravel is by far the most common bottom for outdoor showers. It is easy to install, looks good, and naturally drains away water if you take shorter showers. You can buy gravel, river pebbles, or small stone mixes depending on your aesthetic desires. To effectively install a gravel floor: Smooth out the flooring the best you can. Lay down your stones around the shower. For a more professional look, use half-buried 2x4s to create a simple enclosure around your shower that will hold the gravel in. Use a tamper to press the gravel tightly together, leaving you with a smooth, regular floor. You'll need one 8-foot 4x4" piece of wood and one 8-foot 1x4" piece, both pressure treated. You'll use the first piece to build a square base for your floor, and the second piece to put together the drainable flooring. For a cheap, pre-made alternative, consider using a wooden pallet. Cut one of the 4x4's into 4 even pieces, then screw them together into a simple square frame. Cut a 1x4" into 7 individual pieces, each 26-1/2" long. Place your 7 pieces onto your board starting on the edge, each piece parallel to the next. Leave a 1/4" space between each board for water to drain through. Screw the floorboards into the wooden frame. The easiest way to make a shower wall is to set up four more posts (identical to the one holding up your piping) in the ground, then nail plywood sheets to the posts as walls. You can then attach decorative shingles, paint or stain the plywood, or add a door/curtain instead of wood for one of the sides. You can get a set of outdoor shower walls from a variety of places, and there are a lot of different sets out there that can make your life much easier. However, these sets can run up to $1,000, so it may be more... === Write a summary of the previous text in English:
Consider how much drainage you'll need when constructing the floor and walls. Tramp down a thick layer of gravel for easy, cost-effective flooring. Build a simple wood floor for a professional looking shower. Use plywood or corrugated metal sheets with wooden posts for a simple, customizable wall. Purchase pre-built outdoor shower walls for a professional, easy finish. Use a curved shower curtain to build an easy wall around your shower. Stain and finish any wood so that it is waterproof.

What details would you include in a storyline to make it more engaging and informative? Australian high court grants Norrie the right to be neither man or woman . Had gender reassignment surgery in 1989 but stopped taking hormones . Case expected to pave the way for other 'gender neutral' individuals . State's appeal against decision dismissed, ordered to pay Norrie's costs .
By . Taylor Auerbach . Published: . 02:48 EST, 2 April 2014 . | . Updated: . 06:34 EST, 2 April 2014 . A Scottish-born man living in Australia has won the right to be legally recognised as neither a man or a woman. 'Norrie', who only goes by their first name, underwent surgery to become a woman but has won the right to be considered 'gender neutral'  in a case that could have repercussions around the world. The Sydneysider had gender reassignment surgery in 1989 but stopped taking hormones and now sees their sex as 'non-specific'. Scroll down for video . Androgynous victory: 'Norrie' won the right to be recognised as neither male nor female. The decision is a first and has similarities to cases before the courts in the US . After a grueling High Court hearing, a panel of judges agreed. The case was referred to the highest court in the country by the NSW Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages after Norrie applied for a name change and attempted to register as having no gender. The registrar first granted Norrie's wishes but later reneged. Norrie challenged the decision and eventually the NSW Court of Appeal found the registrar was legally able to recognise genders other than male and female. Norrie wanted to be known as neither male or female - and an Australian court agreed that a person should have the right to consider themselves 'gender neutral' in a landmark case worldwide . That finding was challenged by the Registrar and the case moved to the High Court in November last year. A full bench of the court released its historic findings on Wednesday. 'Not all human beings can be classified by sex as either male or female,' the finding reads. 'The question in this appeal is whether it was within the Registrar's power to record in the Register that the sex of the respondent, Norrie, was, as she said in her application, "non-specific". That question should be answered in the affirmative.' The court ordered the state pay Norrie's appeal costs. 'Not all human beings can be classified by sex as either male or...

Write a multi-choice question for the following article, with the given choices and answer: Article: IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot. He looks like a real person. He talks to you and plays with you. He can even think for himself and figure out what you need. It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him? Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have kept thinking about the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable. This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor that clearly shows its robot status. "As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable," Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, told the BBC. But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives. A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are "necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people", such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent said that robots should not be allowed to participate, because as robots become more advanced and complicated, parents may tend to hand over too much responsibility to them. No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like... Options: A To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy. B To discuss problems related to designing robots. C To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives. D To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more. Answer: B To discuss problems related to designing robots. Question:

Extract the answer to the following question from the movie plot. If the question isn't answerable, please output "Can't answer". Question: What is John's wife's name? Title: The Grey Movie plot: John Ottway (Liam Neeson) works in Alaska, killing wolves that threaten an oil drilling team. On his last day on the job, he shoots one. That evening, Ottway writes a letter "without purpose" to his wife, Ana (Anne Openshaw), explaining his plans to commit suicide. He hears a distant wolf howl and doesn't follow through. The next day, Ottway and other oil drillers board a plane. During the flight, Ottway dreams of sleeping with his wife in bed but is awakened by a loud bang. He buckles up in fear of a possible plane crash. Shortly afterwards, the back of the plane is torn off and luggage starts getting sucked out. Then the plane tips upside down and the roof gets ripped off. Ottway blacks out just before it crashes. Eight people including Ottway survive the crash. One of the team, Lewenden (James Badge Dale), is mortally wounded. Taking charge, Ottway sets the survivors on the task of building a fire. While doing this, he discovers a corpse, and is attacked by the grey wolf feeding on it. After saving Ottway, the group surmises that they are in the wolves' territory. They decide to take turns keeping watch for the predators. Later, Hernandez (Ben Bray) is killed by two wolves. Ottway suggests they leave the crash site, but Diaz (Frank Grillo) questions his leadership. While searching for the wallets of their deceased colleagues, intending to return them to their families, Diaz finds an emergency wrist watch containing a radio beacon. The group then leaves the site. While walking, Flannery (Joe Anderson) falls behind, and is killed by wolves. One of them spots a pack of wolves approaching, and the survivors run for the trees, lighting a fire in an attempt to ward off their attackers. The group sets about producing makeshift weaponry. Diaz threatens Ottway with a knife, but is disarmed and ultimately begins regretting his actions. An omega wolf sent by the alpha wolf to test them attacks, but they kill and roast it for food. Diaz beheads the corpse and throws the head back at the pack, a move noted by the group...

As noted, you're likely only considering signing over a check because you don't have a bank account. If it is possible for you to open an account, do so, because it will make this situation (and likely others) simpler. To open a checking account at a U.S. bank, you generally need to be 18 or older; provide basic information such as full name, address, contact information (phone / email), and Social Security number; and show a government-issued photo ID. You should be able to find a no-fee checking account at one of your local banks. Also look into online banks, where free checking accounts are more typical. This is more likely to work with your Aunt Edna than a mega-corporation that sent you a rebate check, of course. Checks with "or bearer" written following the name of the payee can be deposited or cashed (typically, depending on bank policies) by whomever presents the check. The third party should be prepared to present identification when depositing or cashing the check, depending on the policies of the financial institution, especially if the check is for a larger amount. Checks written out to "cash or bearer" or just "bearer" will work similarly. You will pay a fee in return for this service, but you will walk out with cash that you can use to pay your third party. Check-cashing charges generally range somewhere between 1% and 12% of the check amount, so shopping around for the best deal can pay off. Some national retailers, including Walmart, provide this service. You will need a photo ID to cash the check. How would you rephrase that briefly using English?
Open a bank account, deposit the check, then pay the third party. Ask the original check writer to void the check and write a new one to the third party. Ask the original check writer to add "or bearer" after your name on the check (and future checks written to you). Use a check-cashing service.

Title: Les Témoins Movie plot: This story covers the overlapping stories of a group of French Parisiens who discover the reality of the Aids epidemic through their complex relations with a young man; Manu. The story unfolds through the complex interactions arranged as scenes as they interact with the character Manu as Sister, Lover, Friend, confidante and even rival as their already difficult relationships become crystallised by his premature diagnosis and inevitably demise. Each character has their life priorities questioned and they are forced into re-evaluation of the very basic tenets to which they had hitherto held self evident. The Doctor calls Manu his "Eros" and this self deprecating and lonely man is infused with vicarious energy at the simple prescence of this charasmatic individual who with devastating simplicity wins over the cynical underworld of sexplotation and their even harder protagonists in the shape of the Chief of Police. He is inviolate,kind, demonstrative and unafraid and takes joy in the simple pleasures of life until he must deal with the horror of his prognosis. Numerous sub stories link the individual struggles of characters to exist, to create, to advance their careers and even to crusade with Manu the keystone enabling these stories to provide context for this thoughtful retrospective of the reality of the mindset at the beginning of this "war" against AIDS.

Doc to summarize: By Ian YoungsArts reporter, BBC News In Coniston, there are no fashionable galleries. But locals are used to having contemporary artists hanging around. Laure Prouvost's Turner-winning work Wantee was made in Coniston with the help of the local youth club, and it has just returned to the village in an attempt to boost the profile and visitor numbers of its Ruskin Museum. The work, which centres on a 14-minute video about the artist's fictional grandfather, was filmed in a wooden hut in Cumbria before going on to be shown at Tate Britain, where it was picked out by the Turner judges. The artist describes it as "a collaboration" with local residents. "When we built the shed, for example, we had the youth club come in to help, and they helped us making sculptures," she says. "It was made in Coniston so it's really nice that it comes back and everyone who's been involved and part of it can look at what they've made." Wantee was co-commissioned by Grizedale Arts, a Coniston-based group with a big reputation in the art world. Grizedale has previously enlisted another Turner-nominated artist to redesign the village library and persuaded The Kinks singer Ray Davies to write a school play. Grizedale's other projects include running the youth club, setting up a shop for local crafts and breathing life into Coniston's harvest festival. This week, four artists have arrived to help design new products for the village to make and sell, with the aim of aiding the local economy. The group's artistic influence has even been felt at the annual agricultural show. "The village veg show was just dying on its feet because it had always gone on in the same way," says Anne Hall, a parish and district councillor. "They've given a new momentum to that. "People are beginning to realise that art isn't just pictures in a gallery." A few years ago, many villagers regarded Grizedale as "the people who do the weird art stuff", says its deputy director Alistair Hudson. But they are trying to prove that art is "something...\nSummary in the same language as the doc:

Build a movie plot around this: Where do Vinny and Dionna go? to a night club
It is the summer of 1977 and New York City lives in fear of the serial killer Son of Sam who has shot several women in parked cars. One night, Vinny and his wife Dionna go to a night club, where they dance and have drinks with friends. Dionna's attractive cousin wants to leave, which Vinny volunteers to take her cousin home. He takes her to an undisclosed area and has sex with her in the back seat of his car. Moments after Vinny and Dionna's cousin finish and leave the area, the Son of Sam killer arrives and kills two victims that were parked not too far from where Vinny was. Later on that night, Vinny and his wife drive home, she gives him a kiss and notices a strange taste (deducing that Vinny probably had sex with her cousin, but she was afraid to admit it). While driving with the awkward moment, Vinny drives towards the area that he was at with Dionna's cousin, which is now surrounded by police. Walking to get a better view of what's going on, Vinny sees the dead bodies that the Son of Sam killed right after he left. He returns to his car and begins to throw up, and ignores his wife comforting him to figure out what's wrong. The next day, as Vinny is meeting with Joey and other guys in the neighborhood in regards to the Son of Sam murder, Vinny is approached by Ritchie, an old friend. Ritchie has become part of the punk rock scene and his unusual dress and hairstyle concerns Vinny and others in the neighborhood. The only one who seems accepting of Ritchie is Ruby, Vinny's half-sister, who thinks he looks good. Ruby is initially shocked when she learns that Ritchie makes money by dancing and prostituting himself at a gay theater but the two become closer and eventually start dating. As the Son of Sam killings continue, tension rises in the neighborhood. Detective Petrocelli of the New York Police Department asks local mobster Luigi to help find the killer. Luigi and his men begin assembling a list of possible suspects. A group of men in the neighborhood, led by Joey, also make a list of possible suspects,...

Si realmente quieres disculparte con tu amigo, entonces tendrás que aceptar toda la responsabilidad por las cosas que le has hecho. Si no crees que debes disculparte, estás enojado con tu amigo por otra cosa o piensas que exagera y es demasiado dramático, entonces no te molestes en pedir perdón. O te disculpas por completo, o no lo hagas en absoluto, ¿entendido? Por ejemplo, puedes decir algo así como "Sé que te he decepcionado cuando no he querido ir a tu fiesta. Sé cuánto significa para ti". También puedes decir "Lamento mucho haber besado a la persona que te gusta anoche. No sé en qué estaba pensando, y me he estado reprochando desde ese entonces. Tu amistad significa mucho más para mí que un chico tonto". Si pones excusas durante la disculpa, serás un mal amigo. Fin de la historia. No le digas "Lamento no haber ido a tu fiesta, pero...". Excusarte por tu comportamiento es peor que no pedir disculpas, dado que implica que en verdad no lo sientes tanto. Así es. La parte más importante. Reúne valor y hazlo. Dile "Lamento mucho lo que he hecho" o "Lamento mucho que…". Deja en claro que "tú" lamentas algo que "tú has hecho" y ha herido a tu amigo. Quizás esta sea la parte más difícil, así que respira profundo, haz contacto visual con él y dile que realmente lo sientes. No le digas algo así como "Lamento que te hayas molestado tanto". Esto suena a una basura pasiva agresiva fatal que básicamente lo culpa a él, no a ti. Al igual que al poner excusas, este comportamiento hará que seas un mal amigo. Después de aceptar la responsabilidad por lo que has hecho y decirle que lo sientes, tienes que reconocer que lo has herido. Demuéstrale que sabes cómo has hecho que se sienta. De esta forma, percibirá que te has esforzado mucho para tener en cuenta cada ángulo de lo que has hecho y que te sientes muy mal por tus acciones. Puedes decir algo como "No puedo imaginar cuán decepcionado te has sentido cuando no fui a tu fiesta de cumpleaños. La has planeado por tanto tiempo, y sé que querías que fuera perfecta". También... TL;DR in English:
Accept full responsibility for the events. Say you're sorry. Apologize for how you've made your friend feel. Tell them their friendship is more important than your pride or faults. Find a way to make it up to them. Ask for forgiveness.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) imposed the restriction following a request from police. The ban will not affect emergency services, or commercial flights travelling to and from Cardiff and Bristol airports. In an advisory sent out to pilots, the CAA said the restriction was part of the security operation being put in place to protect heads of state, including President Barack Obama, who are attending. Unauthorised aircraft will not be able to fly over the area from Newport, Cardiff and the Gwent valleys, to Ross-On-Wye, Bristol and Minehead. Flights which breach the ban will be intercepted by police air support.

Pull the opening of the balloon over the threads of an easily-accessible faucet or hose. Use an easy-fill nozzle attachment, if you have one; some packages of water balloons actually come with a plastic nozzle. Be careful when you stretch the balloon over the faucet. If you haven't pre-stretched the neck—and even if you have—it is very easy to rip the rubber when you try to snap it onto something. Make sure that there is a place for water to drain if you pop any balloons during the filling process. Sinks, lawns, and outdoor areas are great for this. Pull the balloon over the lower (output) opening of the funnel, and make sure that it is tight. Simply pour the water through the funnel (from a faucet, a hose, a watering can, etc.) for any easy and nearly-foolproof home method. If you don't have access to a screw-on faucet attachment, this is the next-easiest thing. Use your thumb and forefinger to pinch the neck of the balloon onto to the water source while you're filling up. This is an important step whether you are using a funnel, a nozzle, or a regular faucet. Even if a balloon fits onto the faucet without breaking, it is common for the sudden burst of water to pop, snap, or dislodge the balloon. Hold the balloon neck tightly, and do not let go until you tie the balloon. When you have situated the balloon, turn the faucet on halfway for a slow-to-moderate stream of water. Watch the balloon as you fill it up, and turn the water off before it fills to the top. Leave about an inch of airspace so that you can easily tie the balloon. You can use hot or cold water – or, for that matter, any other liquid with about the same density as water. If you are filling water balloons in the summer, you may want to use cold water for the sake of cooling off. TL;DR in English:
Attach the balloon to a faucet or hose. Siphon the water through a funnel. Hold the balloon in place to keep it from slipping. Slowly and carefully fill the balloon.

Sum the following article in brief: A blind sled dog named Gonzo is never far from his brother Poncho, who for years has acted as his sight on the trails in New Hampshire. Now that the Alaskan husky brothers are nearing age 10, NH Sled Dog Rescue is looking to retire them and hope to send the two inseparable friends to the same family. Both Gonzo and Poncho were born with sight but in 2010, trainers started to realize Gonzo was losing his sight when he started tripping over his food. Inseparable: Blind sled dog Gonzo (left) is currently up for adoption with his brother Poncho (right), who has been acting as his sight on the trails for years.

(CNN) -- To the Republican voters in the other 49 states, I sympathize with you. It must be painful to turn on every cable and broadcast network, read the websites and follow the blogs and realize that you mean absolutely nothing when it comes to choosing a GOP nominee for president of the United States. Please, don't even bother. Iowa has it all under control, and what happens there, and in New Hampshire, will settle the race once and for all. What a load of animal droppings on the Iowa farm fields. Conventional wisdom, which really means the opinions of the smart, politically savvy know-it-all sages in Washington, says that if you don't win Iowa or place high there, you won't be able to raise the money to continue, and you might as well go home and lick your wounds. Summary: - Roland Martin objects to the notion that you have to take Iowa to win - Martin: No candidate should drop out based on performance in Iowa or New Hampshire - The 48 other states must not be dismissed, he says; changes in fortunes happen - Iowa boosted Obama, he says, but not winners Huckabee, Buchanan or Tsongas
- It was a huge boost for Obama in 2008, but for past Iowa winners such as Mike Huckabee, Pat Buchanan and Paul Tsongas, it didn't lead to winning their respective party's presidential nomination.

Power the LCR meter and wait for it to turn on. Set the LCR to measure L, or inductance. Set the meter to 100 kHz at 1 volt. Connect the leads to the LCR meter. Check the display screen to figure out the inductance. Given the above summary, write a detailed text in Spanish for it.
Un medidor LCR básico es muy similar a un multímetro que normalmente se utiliza para medir cosas como el voltaje y la corriente. La mayoría de los medidores son portátiles con una pantalla de lectura que muestra un 0 después de presionar el botón de encendido. Si no muestra el 0, debes presionar el botón de reinicio para configurar el medidor en 0. También existen máquinas electrónicas más grandes que facilitan el proceso de prueba aún más de lo normal. A menudo, cuentan con espacio para que conectes la bobina inductora para conseguir un resultado más preciso. Los multímetros no se pueden utilizar para medir la inductancia, ya que no tienen la capacidad. Sin embargo, por fortuna, los medidores LCR portátiles de bajo costo están disponibles en internet. Un medidor LCR puede tomar varias medidas, que se enumeran en el dial. “L” significa inductancia, por lo que es el dato que necesitas. Para los medidores manuales, debes girar el dial para apuntar a “L”. Si vas a utilizar un dispositivo electrónico, debes presionar los botones en la pantalla para configurar la máquina en “L”. Los medidores LCR presentan múltiples configuraciones, así que asegúrate de utilizar el correcto. La configuración “C” es para capacitancia y “R” para resistencia. Por lo general, los medidores LCR ofrecen varias configuraciones de prueba diferentes. La prueba de inductancia más baja suele ser aproximadamente 200 uH. Si vas a configurar un medidor de mesa, 100 kHz a 1 voltio es perfecto para la mayoría de los dispositivos. El uso de una configuración incorrecta vuelve la prueba más imprecisa. La mayoría de los medidores LCR están diseñados para probar con una corriente baja, pero aún debes evitar hacer que la corriente se vuelva más fuerte de lo que la bobina inductora puede manejar. El medidor contará con un cable negro y rojo como un multímetro. El cable rojo se encaja en el enchufe marcado como positivo, mientras que el negro se encaja en el enchufe marcado como negativo. Toca los cables a los extremos del terminal del dispositivo que...

First, read the English article below. The scene culture leans toward "party music" that you can dance to and is often electronic. The music is much more pop-oriented and makes great background noise for socializing and having a good time. Emo music, on the other hand, is not danceable, and is much more rock-centric. The typical emo sound is dramatic in its emotional range and often features a dynamic of alternating loud/soft extremes. It tends to emphasize emotion rather than socializing and partying. Fast, punk-derived drum beats and heavily distorted guitars are common elements in the emo sound. Emo vocals are dramatic in mood and can even occasionally feature screams, moans, and howls. Lyrically, emo musicians are introspective and focus on emotional issues like sadness, confusion, love, anger, and pain. Later emo musicians developed a slightly softer, more mainstream sound, but the lyrical content remained just as brooding and contemplative. Scene music does not put any particular emphasis on lyrical content and doesn’t feature the inward-looking, thoughtful vibe that is characteristic of emo. Recognizing and listening to the “right” emo bands is a key component of emo culture. Bands are slightly less important in the fashion-centric scene culture, but there are some bands that are overwhelmingly considered to be “scene bands.” Some of the flagship bands in emo culture, both past and present, are: Rites of Spring, Embrace, Moss Icon, Drive Like Jehu, Fugazi, Jawbreaker, Sunny Day Real Estate, Dashboard Confessional, Jimmy Eat World, Get Up Kids, The Promise Ring, Brand New, My Chemical Romance and Fall Out Boy. Scene band names to look out for are Blood on the Dancefloor, Owl City, Dot Dot Curve, Brokencyde, Scene Kidz, Millionaires, Jeffree Star and Hollywood Undead. Scene music also features a lot artists from electro-pop, dance-pop, dubstep, and house/techno genres. Names to recognize are Skrillex, Knife Party, and deadmau5. Occasionally, mainstream pop stars like Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj are also embraced by the scene subculture. Now, please write a short abstract for it in English. Abstract:
Listen for a dance beat. Assess the vocal styles. Know popular band names.

Title: An brilliant album, done by 2 great singers. Review: Personally, I never used to really like the Warren Brothers until I saw them in concert. They were phenomenal!! On top of that, i got to meet them in person. This CD "The King of Nothing" shows their true colors. From songs such as "Strange", "Moving On", their title track, to the emotional ballad "Thats the beat of a heart", this CD could'nt be any better. This is not a traditional country group, however they can still hold a place in the country music scene. Give or take a few more albums, and this group will be up there with the big ones. Great job on this CD, Brett and Brad!!Total CD time: 43 min Is this product review negative?

Debes visitar a un médico de inmediato si tu dedo está entumecido durante un periodo de tiempo prolongado o si sientes un hormigueo continuamente. También debes acudir a un médico si el hueso se ve roto desde un ángulo y hay una herida abierta en tu dedo o algo de sangrado. También debes buscar atención médica si tu dedo no sana adecuadamente en un periodo de entre una y dos semanas y aún está muy inflamado y adolorido. Tu médico probablemente solicitará una radiografía de tu dedo roto para confirmar la fractura. Luego puede adormecerlo con anestesia local y realinear el hueso que atraviesa la piel. Si hay algo de sangre atrapada debajo de la uña del dedo roto, tu médico puede hacer un agujero pequeño en ella o sacarla para drenar la sangre. Dependiendo de la gravedad de la fractura, tal vez necesites una cirugía en el dedo. Se insertarán alfileres o tornillos especiales en el hueso roto para mantenerlo en su lugar mientras se cura. Tal vez también necesites apoyar el dedo en una escayola. Quizás te indiquen que uses muletas para que puedas caminar sin poner nada de peso sobre el dedo y así permitir que sane adecuadamente. Si el hueso atravesó la piel (esto se conoce como una fractura expuesta), existe un riesgo grave de infección. Necesitarás limpiar la herida con frecuencia y tal vez te prescriban antibióticos para evitar la infección. Si tus vacunas no están al día, el médico puede administrarte una vacuna antitetánica para evitar una infección posterior. How would you rephrase that briefly using English?

Article: For at least three minutes a week during 2014/15, 360,000 people watched compared to 383,000 the year before. Chairman of the S4C Authority Huw Jones said viewing figures in the annual report should be "handled with care". He said public service channels BBC Two and Channel 4 had also seen falls of between 5-7%. There was a 10% increase in the number of people across the UK who saw the Welsh language channel for at least three minutes a week - from 551,000 in 2013/14 to 605,000 - during 2014/15. There was also an increase of 31% in the number of online viewers to the channel, with 5.7 million viewing sessions via its website and apps. Meanwhile, the BBC Trust, in a statement within S4C's annual report, warned "the channel's ability" to reach and engage its core Welsh speaking audience was "in flux". It cited the rising appeal of its online and UK-wide services, and the drop in its core TV audience in Wales. S4C receives the majority of its annual funding, around £75m, from the BBC licence fee, with a further £7m from the UK government. The channel is about to enter detailed discussions on its future funding with the UK Culture Secretary John Whittingdale and the BBC Trust. Mr Jones said an increase in the number of repeats shown by S4C was "a matter of concern" for the governing body. Meanwhile, he warned "care must be taken that this does not lead to a service lacking in freshness, particularly in peak viewing hours". More viewers watched S4C's live online and catch-up services during 2014/15, while those watching on their mobile phones increased by more than 230% to almost 3 million. Mr Jones said S4C needed to take advantage of the latest technology to serve its audiences. He said the channel's increased reach beyond Wales meant that "numerous Welsh exiles are using contemporary technology increasingly to enable them and their children to continue to be part of the everyday life of Wales through the medium of Welsh, wherever they live". Chief executive Ian Jones said the introduction of all of S4C's... Summary:
There has been a 6% fall in the number of people who watched S4C on TV each week in Wales in the last year, the channel has said.

Write an expanded news article with plausible details from the following summary: When it comes to finances, Americans are doing generally better than during the recession. But when it comes to financial literacy, the picture is grim. According to a new survey of 27,564 Americans called the National Financial Capability Study that was put out by the FINRA Foundation, roughly two-thirds of Americans aren't able to correctly answer four out of five basic questions about finances. (You can take the test here.) The kinds of things most Americans don't know? That 20% interest on a $1,000 loan compounded annually results in $200 in interest at the end of the year. And the one that tripped up nearly three in four Americans surveyed? As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Even worse, as Fortune reports, the percentage of people who are able to pass the test by answering four or five out of the five questions correctly has fallen since the financial crisis, from 42% in 2009 to 37% in 2015—even though the crisis was largely characterized as a warning to better understand basic finances. The good news is that Americans as a whole are feeling less strain financially, with 46% of people having emergency funds in 2015 compared to 35% in 2009. But a huge number of people, including African-Americans, Hispanics, women, millennials, and people without a high school education, are actually worse off than before the recession. And racial discrepancies persist: A whopping 39% of blacks have resorted to high-cost borrowing from, say, pawn shops, compared to 21% of whites and Asians. (This study finds that motivation is more important than math when it comes to successfully tackling debt.)
Quick: If you take out a $1000 loan that has a 20% rate, how much will you owe a year in interest? Answer: $200. But if you got that wrong, you’re not alone. Nearly two thirds of Americans can’t calculate interest payments correctly, according to a new study. About a third said they didn’t even know how. One of the silver linings of the financial crisis was that it was supposed to have taught many Americans a lesson, albeit painful, about the dangers of debt, and financial issues in general. Apparently, the message, though, didn’t get across. All told, a new study, which was released today, estimated that nearly two-thirds of Americans couldn’t pass a basic financial literacy test, meaning they got fewer than four answers correct on a five-question quiz. Worse, the percentage of those who can pass the test has fallen consistently since the financial crisis to 37% last year, from 42% in 2009. Partner Offers by Compare Cards These findings come from the National Capability Study by the FINRA Foundation, which surveyed 27,564 Americans, from June through October of last year. FINRA is a quasi-government organization that regulates brokers and Wall Street. Bonds presented one of the biggest problems for respondents of the survey. Just 28% knew what happens to bond prices when interest rates fall. (They rise.) And less than half of all Americans appear to be able to answer basic questions about financial risk. Beyond financial literacy, the study found that many Americans have recovered from the financial crisis. Respondents to the survey who reported no difficulty in covering monthly expenses and bills increased 12 percentage points, to 48% in 2015 from 36% in 2009. The percentage of respondents with emergency funds has increased to 46% from 35% in the same years. Additionally, more than half of those using credit cards reported that they pay off their balance each month—the highest percentage since the survey began, the study found. However, the study also showed that even eight...

Is there a negative or positive tone to this product review? === Title: A fun gossipy read Review: I agree with the reviewer from the Boston Globe that this book would make a good movie. I'm surprised that it hasn't gone to paperback yet, and I suspect that it's sales don't do justice to this page-turner. A couple of reviewers mentioned that they were angered when contacted by one of the authors via e-mail. That happened to me, and I think it was a very bright idea. I reviewed Olivia Goldsmith's The Bestseller, and the Jane Harvard member was exactly right. If you enjoy complex, scandal-filled plots, you will enjoy The Student Body. I think readers of E. Lynn Harris would enjoy this book as well. On an emotional level, I think the most important aspect of this kind of writing is creating "good guys" whom the reader actually roots for and villains who are detestable. I feel they succeeded with flying colors. I hope Michael Melcher, Faith Adiele, Bennett Singer and Julia Sullivan will keep me informed of any future novels. Answer:

STEVIE THE EMBLEM To get an idea how much of an emblem Steven Gerrard is to Liverpool, you only had to take a glance through the match programme and look at The Kop. Before kick-off, a banner was unveiled proclaiming him 'the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be' in homage to the LA Galaxy-bound talisman. More intriguing, though, were the 11 images of him in the programme. His commercial worth to Liverpool is huge, as he was the main face on every sponsored page. Who will possibly fill that void when he is gone? Summary: - Liverpool and Chelsea drew 1-1 in the first leg of the League Cup semi-final - Steven Gerrard was hailed as the best ever by banner unveiled in the Kop - Jose Mourinho didn't look impressed when Chelsea fans ridiculed Gerrard - Chelsea warmed up for the match on the waterfront on Monday morning
- Ditching his usual smart attire, Jose Mourinho wore a tracksuit, overcoat and snood and that casual ensemble sparked memories of the way he was dressed for the game that decided the title race on April 27.

Para tener un cuerpo sano, procura mantener un cuerpo saludable. Si tienes sobrepeso, probablemente no tengas un cuerpo sano en general. Las calorías son una unidad de medida. Obtienes las calorías de los alimentos, y esa energía sirve como combustible para tus funciones corporales y actividades que realizas a lo largo del día. Si consumes demasiadas calorías, podrías correr el riesgo de subir de peso. Por el contrario, si no comes suficiente, podrías bajar de peso. Quizás necesites modificar la cantidad de calorías que comes diariamente para ajustarla a las necesidades de tu cuerpo y para mantener un peso saludable. Utiliza una calculadora en línea o una aplicación de Smartphone para determinar la cantidad de calorías que tu cuerpo necesita. Lleva un registro de las calorías para determinar si tu dieta actual se ajusta a tus necesidades. Esta es una de las partes más importantes para mantener un cuerpo generalmente saludable. Sin una dieta equilibrada, será muy difícil mantener una salud adecuada. En una dieta equilibrada, debes consumir alimentos que pertenezcan a cada grupo alimenticio la mayor parte del tiempo o incluso a diario. Asimismo, debes consumir una variedad de alimentos dentro de cada grupo alimenticio. Contar con una variedad amplia de alimentos de los grupos alimenticios te permitirá consumir una diversidad de nutrientes. Por último, en una dieta equilibrada, debes comer las proporciones adecuadas de cada alimento. Si comes principalmente alimentos con un alto contenido de proteínas pero muy pocas frutas o verduras, tu dieta no estará equilibrada. Esta sería los tamaños adecuados de las porciones de cada grupo alimenticio: 85 a 100 g (3 o 4 oz) de proteínas (el tamaño de una baraja de cartas), 1 taza de verduras o 2 tazas de verduras de hoja verde, ½ taza de fruta picada o 1 pedazo pequeño de fruta y 28 g (1 oz) o ½ taza de granos.

While this place offers many different types of tacos, the star here is the tacos al pastor. I can safely tell you that this is probably the best taco I have ever had in my life. The meat itself is truly remarkable. The flavors are so complex and bold, yet very well balanced. And the side sauces are unforgivingly spicy and authentic. Mix that in with the pickled vegetables, and you will have yourself an amazing meal for 2 dollars. This is a great deal. Cash Only!! I cannot wait to come back and get some more al pastor here!

Di que tienes una cita con el dentista o el doctor o que tienes que faltar a la escuela por un compromiso familiar si solo quieres faltar a algunos periodos. Normalmente, no deberías imitar la voz de uno de tus padres; la oficina escolar no es tonta. Por ello, es preferible lograr que alguien lo haga por ti. Los hermanos y los primos mayores pueden prestarse para reportarte enfermo ante la escuela, como lo harían los vecinos amigables o el hermano de uno de tus amigos. Asegúrate de mantener la conversación breve y sin dar muchos detalles. Es mejor si puedes realmente tener una cita o razón verdadera para faltar a la escuela. Puedes considerar decirles a tus padres que el ortodontista te programó una cita cuando en realidad no la tienes o que tienes una cita con tu entrenador para revisar las jugadas del juego del fin de semana. Una llamada de tus padres parecerá más verdadera, incluso si la cita no es cierta. Es mejor si puedes actuar ambiguo y no dar detalles tanto como puedas para evitar causar sospechas cuando inventas una cita.

$20 all you can eat sushi. This place is away from the strip. Came here with a big group of friends (13 people) and they put our tables together and we were seated within couple mins. Their special rolls are the best. I like how you can order ANYTHING u want off their menu (appetizers, sushi, soups, desserts) since some place only have limited selection and you can order as many time as you want. Our group ordered so many rolls I don't even remember which rolls we got. We were so full we almost didn't finish but we made sure we did so they wouldn't charge us extra for not finishing (not sure if they do but most AYCE restaurants do charge for not finishing). I like how how you can order mochi ice cream as many times as you want (strawberry and chocolate mochi ice cream YUMMY!), I don't know any other AYCE sushi places that do that.
