Tell me why your dog likes dog daycare. | Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
Tell me why your dog likes dog daycare.
### Response:
| My dog has a lot of energy and is an extrovert with both people and other dogs. He gets so excited in the car on the way there! I like the fact that the dogs' play is supervised by trained dog specialists, and that dogs who are getting too aggressive are placed in a timeout in a crate to settle down. I like that it's indoors so it can continue in the winter months and rain or shine. I like that they have a nap in the middle of the day so they can re-charge for the afternoon play session. While my dog doesn't got there for more than 9 hours, it is convenient that the daycare is open from 7am to 7pm in case I needed him to stay there longer. I like that they have two separate playrooms at our daycare, one for smaller breeds/older dogs/timid dogs, and the other for larger dogs/younger dogs who may want to roughhouse more. Another great benefit is that my daycare offers spa services for my dog like a bath, nail trimming, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and I do take advantage of that every other month or so. Last, if we are going out of town, and my son can't come over to watch our dog, the dog daycare center does offer boarding services. I would highly recommend that you check it out! | |

### Instruction:
Write a short story about a person who discovers a bowling ball with special powers to roll strikes every time. The story should include a plot twist and a clear resolution at the end.
### Response:
| It seemed like any other day as Kyle and Jeff headed to Airway Lanes for a fun time at the bowling alley. While meticulously looking over house balls with fingertip grips to feel like the pros, Jeff found one that caught his eye. The beautiful blue ball, with pink swirls and matching holes, already somehow had his same initials carved in.
As the two began to bowl, Jeff started with a strike. "Oh, I like this one," he thought. Another strike! "I could get used to this," he told himself.
Kyle was also bowling well, notching a strike and a 9-spare but nothing like what Jeff was doing on the lanes this fateful afternoon.
As Jeff lined up for his 3rd roll, his palms started sweating. The dreaded Turkey is where he got stuck so many times. But not today... ANOTHER STRIKE! Jeff jumped for joy.
The two would go on to bowl their best games ever, a perfect 300 for Jeff and 279 for Kyle.
As Jeff headed home, he wondered if his new ball, which the bowling alley gave him after his perfect game, was magical.
He headed back to the lanes the next day. Again nothing but strikes. As Jeff figured out there was something magical about the ball, he had the decision to make. He could go on to be the best bowler never, never missing a pin again. Or, he could get a ball that wasn't magical. And play with honor.
Jeff decided to destroy the ball for the good of mankind. And continue his craft the good old fashion way, with hard work and dedication! | |

### Instruction:
Tell me whether these are animals or bands names: Eagles, Camels, Penguins, The Turtles, The Beatles, The Animals, Arctic Monkeys, Spain, France, Gorillas, Gorillaz, Crazy Horse, Lamb Of God, Beluga sturgeon
### Response:
| Interesting! Some don't fit in any of the categories, some of those are animals, some are bands names and some are actually both!
Let's start by saying that Spain and France aren't animals or bands names. They are European countries.
Eagles, The Turtles, The Beatles could be considered both. The Turtles, The Beatles in this case, are probably referring to the band due to the use of 'The'.
Camels, Penguins, Gorillas and Beluga sturgeon are definitely animals and not bands.
The Animals, Arctic Monkeys, Gorillaz, Crazy Horse, Lamb Of God are names of bands and they aren't animals. | |

What type of battery should I get to power my trolling motor? | Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What type of battery should I get to power my trolling motor?
### Response:
| Traditionally the answer is to utilize a deep cycle marine lead acid battery. These batteries are similar to a car battery but instead of having a high amount of cold cranking amps they have the ability to be run to a lower state of charge without damage. A better solution is to use a LiFePO4 battery. These batteries may have a higher initial cost, but will generally last longer than the traditional battery while providing more usable capacity and having a substantially lower weight. | |

I am a reader in the US and would like to get started in collecting special edition books. Where should I start?
### Response:
| Special edition books are printed in limited qualities, sometimes signed by the author, numbered, have unique cover designs compared to the trade editions, and some have sprayed or stenciled edges. In the US, a popular publisher is Subterranean Press that offers many titles typically of the science fiction, fantasy, and horror genres. The UK has several options such as Illumicrate and Fairy Loot. These companies usually offer signed special editions with author signatures, unique covers, and decorative edges. Genres primarily offered include young adult fantasy. For the company with the widest selection, Goldsboro Books is the best option. The special editions are hand signed, numbered, and have sprayed or stencil edges. While Goldsboro Books offers many science fiction and fantasy options, they also offer many other genres including literary fiction, historical fiction, mysteries, and thrillers. Please keep in mind that readers it will cost US readers more when ordering from UK companies due to the pound-dollar conversion and costlier international shipping fees. | |

What is the best surface to run on? | Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What is the best surface to run on?
### Response:
| Running is a great exercise, but not all running surfaces are created equal. Traditionally, those who run "runners" will run 5-7 days a week. Runners will average between 3 miles per run up to 20 miles per run. While running is great exercise and very efficient at burning calories, it can be hard on the body. Specifically the leg joints. The average runner will strike the surface they are running on 1,480 times per mile. So if you are running 10 miles, thats just under 15,000 foot strikes. This repetitive striking can deteriorate the body joints over time. Therefore, the type of surface a runner runs on, can have a huge impact on the body. Some surfaces are harder than others, the harder the surface, the harder on the body, legs and joints. Concrete is harder than asphalt, asphalt is harder than a dirt trail and a dirt trail is harder than a high school track surface. Example, concrete can be 30% harder surface than asphalt. Running is a great exercise and millions of people enjoy running. But if you want to run long, as in for a long time, choose your running surface for the long run. Because the surface you choose to run on, can have a direct correlation to how long your body and leg joints will last. | |

What is a classified board of directors, and why would a company want to implement this type of corporate structure? | Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What is a classified board of directors, and why would a company want to implement this type of corporate structure?
### Response:
| For companies that are incorporated in Delaware, the Delaware General Corporation Law permits corporations to divide their boards of directors into up to 3 classes. Other states in the United States have similar provisions regarding classified boards.
For boards that have only 1 class, each director serves a fixed term (generally 1 year), and each director is subject to re-election each year.
Classified boards (also known as staggered boards) are divided into three separate classes (in equal proportion, to the extent possible), with members of each class serving three-year terms and only one class of directors up for election in any year.
A classified board is one type of protection that companies consider as part of a wider range review of corporate defensive measures. Generally, corporate defensive measures relate to measures for a company to consider to protect against (1) hostile takeovers that the board believes do not reflect the value of the company and (2) short-termism, where there is pressure from public investors – particularly activist investors – to take board actions (or face the risk of being voted off the board) that the board believes are not in the best interest of the company and its stockholders and maximizing value over the long term. Corporate defensive measures generally aren’t relevant when a company is private given the corporate structure with significant long-term investor representation on the board and various agreements in place with stockholders. However, these measures become relevant once a company has public stockholders, so many companies who are considering an initial public offering will assess what types of defensive measures would be appropriate for them.
A classified board is viewed as corporate defensive measure (i.e., it’s an anti-takeover and activist defense) as the entire board can’t be replaced in a single election cycle (with 3 classes, it would take up to the 3rd election cycle for the full board to be replaced, and generally 2 years to capture a majority). | |

What are the best ways to decrease sound resonance in a room? | Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What are the best ways to decrease sound resonance in a room?
### Response:
| The most impactful ways to decrease the sound resonance in a room would be to concentrate on a few significant points. The most impactful and easiest change is the source of the sound that is having resonance. A more suitable location not orthogonally facing a wall will decrease echo. Sound absorption is paramount to creating a space that does not meaningfully reflect sound waves in a way that causes resonance. Focus on corners and large flat walls to prevent resonance. The material and shape can distort the sound waves enough to prevent any audible artifacts from the resonance. | |

What's the best career advise you could give a new graduate entering into a technical or analytics field?
### Response:
| A key feature of any technical or analytics job is that you will be constantly challenged with new trying something new. You will need to learn to learn, i.e. to teach yourself new techniques and new technology, and to have the courage to apply these things to complex challenges where it's not always clear that you have the right answer (and where very few if any people can fully validate your work). For many people, the uncertainty and risk of failure associated with these situations tends to push them towards safe and known opportunities with well-tread paths for them to follow. If you crave a fulfilling career, have the courage to pursue the paths less traveled, acknowledge and learn from your failures and surround yourself with others similarly willing to stretch and grow. You will find such choices lead to a more satisfying career over the longer term. | |

Where has the word ciao originated | Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that provides further context. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
Where has the word ciao originated
### Input:
Ciao (/tʃaʊ/ CHOW, Italian: [ˈtʃaːo] (listen)) is an informal salutation in the Italian language that is used for both "hello" and "goodbye".
Originally from the Venetian language, it has entered the vocabulary of English and of many other languages around the world. Its dual meaning of "hello" and "goodbye" makes it similar to shalom in Hebrew, salaam in Arabic, annyeong in Korean, aloha in Hawaiian, drud (bedrud) in Persian, and chào in Vietnamese (the latter is a false cognate; the two words are not linguistically related despite sounding similar to each other).

What is graph theory? | Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that provides further context. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
### Instruction:
What is graph theory?
### Input:
In mathematics, graph theory is the study of graphs, which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise relations between objects. A graph in this context is made up of vertices (also called nodes or points) which are connected by edges (also called links or lines). A distinction is made between undirected graphs, where edges link two vertices symmetrically, and directed graphs, where edges link two vertices asymmetrically. Graphs are one of the principal objects of study in discrete mathematics.

### Instruction:
Given a reference text about the Salt River, tell me how long the river is and where it starts and finishes.
### Input:
The Salt River is a formerly navigable hanging channel of the Eel River which flowed about 9 miles (14 km) from near Fortuna and Waddington, California, to the estuary at the Pacific Ocean, until siltation from logging and agricultural practices essentially closed the channel. It was historically an important navigation route until the early 20th century. It now intercepts and drains tributaries from the Wildcat Hills along the south side of the Eel River floodplain. Efforts to restore the river began in 1987, permits and construction began in 2012, and water first flowed in the restored channel in October 2013.
