output: Hands down the best performance I have ever seen in person. Although this is only the second Cirque show I have seen, I have attended several sports, music, and fine arts events, and this is easily the most memorable event. Although tickets are rather expensive, there are discounts available online if you look hard enough. I recommend searching slickdeals before purchasing. My family bought tickets off of a slickdeals.net post, and they were $270 for three tickets about six rows away from the stage. Although that is not cheap by any means, the face value of the tickets are significantly higher. It was an amazing spectacle and worth every penny. Every person in the show gave a brilliant performance. (Note: for a preview, I would recommend going on Youtube to see what the hype is about). If you have any appreciation for the performing arts, I highly recommend you see this show. I would definitely see this show again in the future.

output: | Finally, Thai food in my neighborhood! Not quite sure how I went oblivious to this restaurant's opening, but thanks to Yelp I'm oblivious no more. Naga is located on the north end of this strip mall, next to the frozen yogurt shop. Hopefully they will have their signage and booze license soon, which will be accompanied by a true grand opening and expanded menu. The restaurant itself is very modern and tastefully decorated...almost to the point of looking a little ultra-loungeish. I was greeted promptly as I arrived and the service remained very attentive throughout my meal (Thanks Nan!). I started off with a Thai Iced Tea ($4), which was served in a large glass with crushed ice. Followed up with the Beef Naga Salad ($8.50, I think), and finished up with the Chicken Pad Thai ($10). Thai Iced Tea was unremarkable. I have had better and I have had worse. I didn't find out whether they had free refills, but if they don't then the price is quite steep. The Beef Naga Salad is similar in flavor to a standar beef salad (yum nua), although the meat and vegetables to lettuce ratio was a little more westernized. I really enjoyed this dish...it had a nice balance of flavors although the dressing was just slightly too sweet. I ordered the dish at 4* (their highest spice level) and it had a pleasant, lingering heat that was not overpowering. The Chicken Pad Thai was quite respectable. Flavor was good, although again just slightly too sweet, and portion was sizeable. Overall, I had a great initial experience at Naga and I will likely be a frequent diner once their full menu is up and running. My main point of contention right now is their pricing. The food is definitely above average, but the same or better can be had significantly cheaper elsewhere in town. One saving grace, and I'm not sure if it will continue, is that their lunch specials are also available on the weekends...unusual, but awesome. Regardless, I look forward to exploring the rest of their menu and I'm pretty darn excited to finally have a thai restaurant within five minutes of my house! | Flan2021 | yelp_polarity_reviews:0.2.0 | fs_noopt |
Summarize this article:
About 20 properties in Cardigan, Ceredigion, have been affected by "significant flooding" with a hotel hit for the second time this year.
Eleven flood alerts include north, west and south Pembrokeshire and Lower Teifi and the Western Cleddau.
The Met Office has issued a "be aware" warning as more heavy rain is expected across Wales on Saturday morning.
In Cardigan, St Mary Street was reported to be knee-deep in flood water in places.
The Angel Hotel which was hit for the second time this year. Heavy rain sent surface water pouring through the hotel's ground floor from front to back.
The hotel had only recently been repaired after flooding at the start of this year.
Fire crews began pumping water out of properties after the alert was raised at 08:00 GMT but no property was evacuated.
Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service had crews from Cardigan, Crymych, Fishguard, Newcastle Emlyn and Llandysul dealing with the incident.
Ceredigion council said the county's flood plan has been put into operation and St Mary's church hall in Cardigan had been opened to residents.
It said: "The rainfall experienced in the south of the county this morning was exceptional with rainfall intensities of 32mm per hour reported by the Met Office.
"The highway surface water systems are designed to accommodate expected rainfall intensities but perhaps not the very exceptional rainfall circumstances as experienced earlier today."
Pembrokeshire council said it took more than 100 flood-related calls, with the north and north east of the county the worst affected, particularly St Dogmaels, Newport and Dinas.
Fire crews were called to pump out water at five of the properties in Dinas, Solva and St Dogmaels.
Natural Resources Wales had issued a flood warning for Solva but this has since been stood down.
In a statement, Pembrokeshire council said: "Roads were reported flooded up to knee high in several places, and there were road closures at St Dogmaels and Devonshire Drive, near Tenby.
"Many of the road flooding issues have been caused by debris dislodged in the heavy rain causing culverts to block.
"Other problems have been caused by vehicles driving through deep water, causing 'bow waves' to wash into and flood properties.
"Several of the flooded roads have had drain covers dislodged."
Surface water was reported on The Square at Fishguard, between West Street and High Street.
Flooding and poor driving conditions were reported between Fishguard and Eglwyswrw as well as elsewhere on the A487 at Newgale and Roch.
Dyfed-Powys Police said there were many other reports of flooding in Ceredigion, and conditions on the A487 were "particularly bad".
There is a Met Office yellow alert for rain across most of south Wales for Saturday and in the meantime there are likely to be isolated heavy showers. | Flooding hit parts of south west and mid Wales following heavy rain overnight into Friday morning. | Flan2021 | huggingface:xsum | zs_noopt |

Q: What's an example of a movie review?
An example of a movie review is here: Robert Taylor and Stewart Granger switch the goodie-baddie roles they held in "All the brothers were valiant". Taylor seems a bit uncomfortable in his bad-guy role but Granger plays his part perfectly. However the real hero in the story are the bison and the northwest. The film is perfectly made, with the atmosphere of the times wonderfully given. The direction is taut and although the film is no light-hearted entertainment it is, to my way of thinking a major film, unjustly ignored by the cognoscenti.
Q: What's an example of a movie review?
An example of a movie review is here: I seriously love this film so much, I never get sick of watching it. The only line I really can't stomach in this is when Riff calls herself a teenage lobotomy but other than that, everything else is perfect. I've never been a fan of PJ Soles and it didn't help to hear that she didn't even know who the Ramones were until she filmed this movie, but I can ignore her snarly little face for the most part. Most people who watch this over and over are fans of the Ramones and really.. that's the only reason I love it so much. I never get tired of seeing DeeDee mess up his Pizza lines or Joey mess up the name of the teacher over and over, haha. One of the best parts of the film is seeing them sing do you want to dance , down the halls of the high school.. I love it. The special edition DVD has a good retrospective, surprisingly PJ Soles isn't on it. Maybe she was working on another project *laugh* Anyway, great film, even better if you're a Ramones fan.
Q: What's an example of a movie review?
An example of a movie review is here: To bad for this fine film that it had to be released the same year as Braveheart. Though it is a very different kind of film, the conflict between Scottish commoners and English nobility is front and center here as well. Roughly 400 years had passed between the time Braveheart took place and Rob Roy was set, but some things never seemed to change. Scottland is still run by English nobles, and the highlanders never can seem to catch a break when dealing with them. Rob Roy is handsomely done, but not the grand epic that Braveheart was. There are no large-scale battles, and the conflict here is more between individuals. And helpfully so not all Englishmen are portrayed as evil this time. Rob Roy is simply a film about those with honor, and those who are truly evil.
Liam Neeson plays the title character Rob Roy MacGregor. He is the leader of the MacGregor clan and his basic function is to tend to and protect the cattle of the local nobleman of record known as the Marquis of Montrose (John Hurt). Things look pretty rough for the MacGregor clan as winter is approaching, and there seems to be a lack of food for everyone. Rob Roy puts together a plan to borrow 1000 pounds from the Marquis and purchase some cattle of his own. He would then sell them off for a higher price and use the money to improve the general well-being of his community. Sounds fair enough, doesn't it? Problems arise when two cronies of the Marquis steal the money for themselves. One of them, known as Archibald Cunningham, is perhaps the most evil character ever put on film. Played wonderfully by Tim Roth, this man is a penniless would-be noble who has been sent to live with the Marquis by his mother. This man is disgustingly effeminate, rude, heartless, and very dangerous with a sword. He fathers a child with a hand maiden and refuses to own up to the responsibility. He rapes Macgregor's wife and burns him out of his home. This guy is truly as rotten as movie characters come. Along with another crony of the Marquis (Brian Cox) Cunningham steals the money and uses it to settle his own debts. Though it is painfully obvious to most people what happened, the Marquis still holds MacGregor to the debt. This sets up conflict that will take many lives and challenge the strengths of a man simply fighting to hold on to his dignity.
Spoilers ahead!!!!!
Luckily for the MacGregor's, a Duke who is no friend to the Marquis sets up a final duel between Rob Roy and Cunningham to resolve the conflict one and for all. This sword fight has been considered by many to be one of the best ever filmed. Cunningham is thought by many to be a sure winner with his speed and grace. And for most of the fight, it looks like these attributes will win out. Just when it looks like Rob Roy is finished, he turns the tables in a shockingly grotesque manner. The first time you see what happens, you will probably be as shocked as Cunningham! Rob Roy is beautifully filmed, wonderfully acted, and perfectly paced. The score is quite memorable, too. The casting choices seem to have worked out as Jessica Lange, who might seem to be out of her element, actually turns in one of the strongest performances as Mary MacGregor. The film is violent, but there isn't too much gore. It is a lusty picture full of deviant behavior, however. The nobility are largely played as being amoral and sleazy. The film has no obvious flaws, thus it gets 10 of 10 stars.
The Hound.
Q: What's an example of a movie review?
An example of a movie review is here: | In this film we have the fabulous opportunity to see what happened to Timon and Pumbaa in the film when they are not shown - which is a lot! This film even goes back to before Simba and (presumbably) just after the birth of Kiara.
Quite true to the first film, "Lion King 1/2 (or Lion King 3 in other places)" is a funny, entertaining, exciting and surprising film (or sequel if that's what you want to call it). A bundle of surprises and hilarity await for you!
While Timon and Pumbaa are watching a film at the cinema (with a remote control), Timon and Pumbaa have an argument of what point of "The Lion King" they are going to start watching, as Timon wants to go to the part when he and Pumbaa come in and Pumbaa wants to go back to the beginning. They have a very fair compromise of watching the film of their own story, which is what awaits... It starts with Timon's first home...
For anyone with a good sense of humour who liked the first films of just about any age, enjoy "Lion King 1/2"! :-) | Flan2021 | imdb_reviews/plain_text:1.0.0 | fs_opt |

Question:
Article:Entryism is the infiltration of an organisation by another group's members who intend to change its policies.
The tribunal found that two members associated with the CPI had been unjustifiably expelled from the union.
It also criticised Nipsa's "regular" record of sorting out internal grievances though tribunals.
Its judgement said "the tribunal does not exist to provide a public forum for the periodic ventilation of obscure and internecine disputes within Nipsa".
It added that "no other union appears to require this regular attention".
The Northern Ireland Public Service Alliance (Nipsa) has more than 45,000 members, mainly Civil Service staff and public sector employees.
The judgement said the case was part of a dispute between two factions in the union which "has been a rich source of litigation over recent years".
The factions are: 'unity', which is associated with the Marxist Leninist CPI, and the 'broad left' which is associated with various Trotskyite parties.
The case involved two people who were employed as officials for other trade unions and then joined Nipsa.
They were elected as officers and delegates in their Nipsa branch in 2015.
Their right to membership of the union was queried by members associated with the broad left who also alleged the meeting at which they were elected had been "packed" by the CPI.
The tribunal noted that "as Communist coups go, it was hardly the storming of the Winter Palace".
The union leadership, which is dominated by the broad left, decided the two people were not eligible for membership as Nipsa does not represent employees of other trade unions.
The two took a case to the tribunal alleging discrimination on the grounds of political opinion.
However the tribunal said they had not shown that the two factions actually have any substantive political differences.
It added that name-calling or trolling on social media is not sufficient to show political difference nor is "alleged adherence to Trotsky's 1938 Transitional Program".
However the tribunal found they had nonetheless been unjustifiably expelled from the union.
They claimants said they have suffered stress, insomnia and reputation damage as a result.
However, the tribunal said it has seen no evidence of this, adding "the claimants nor any representative of the respondent trade union evinced any degree of stress or upset during the hearing".
"To the contrary everybody involved, and their supporters, showed every sign of enjoying the process."

(CNN) -- Yemen told outside powers Wednesday to stay out of its battle with a Shiite rebel group in its northwest amid concerns that Iran and Saudi Arabia are being drawn into the conflict. The statement, carried by the state news agency Saba and attributed to a Foreign Ministry source, followed a statement of concern for Yemen's "national unity and territorial integrity" by Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki on Tuesday. "We welcome what Mottaki affirmed about Iran's position towards Yemen's unity and stability, and Yemen reaffirms that it definitely rejects the interference in its internal affairs by any party," the statement said. It said Yemen's battle with the Houthi, a Shiite Muslim rebel movement, is "an internal Yemeni affair, and Yemen can solve its issues without any interference from others."

Sebastian Vettel has been vilified for ignoring team orders and passing his Red Bull teammate Mark Webber in Malaysia to whisk the win from under the Australian's nose. Directly behind the dueling Red Bulls, the opposite scenario was playing out as Nico Rosberg reluctantly obeyed team orders not to overtake his Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton for third place, even though the German appeared to have a quicker car. The controversial issue of team orders in Formula 1 has once again tested respect between teammates -- and ahead of Sunday's race Vettel said he would probably do it again given he felt Webber had not supported him in the past -- and raised question marks over the purity of the sport's racing.

Summarize this article in one sentence.
Pilar cysts develop after puberty and have an autosomal dominant inheritance. This means that they occur in both sexes and if one parent carries the gene for a pilar cyst then it increases the risk that the children will experience these cysts. Seventy percent of people who get them will have multiple cysts over their lifetime. There is no known cause at this time for cysts that develop in the breast tissue. Doctors do not have a clear answer about the risk factors and prevention for Cystic acne but it is believed to be related to increasing hormonal levels in puberty and pregnancy and deep infections from hair follicles plugged by sebum (oil on the skin). Most cysts are not but some are. For instance, prevention for a pilonidal cyst includes wearing clothing that is not tight, maintaining normal weight limits, and getting up from a seated position every 30 minutes throughout the day. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, there is no effective means of preventing an epidermoid cyst from forming. However, there are groups of people who appear to be at greater risk for developing them: more men than women, acne sufferers, and people who spend a long time in the sun. People who have suffered hand injury are more likely to experience an epidermoid or ganglion cyst on the hand. Bartholin gland cysts can occur after injury to the area at the opening to the vagina. While most cysts are not preventable, you can lower your risks of getting the ones that are. Use oil-free skin products and avoiding excessive sun exposure. Shaving and waxing may also be responsible for cyst formation. Avoid excessive shaving and waxing in areas where you have already gotten cysts to prevent reformation or new cysts.

There are so many unanswered questions, Did they make a 2:32 hour long movie then realize they hadn't put Lex Luthor and Superman in a scene together and were forced to settle for the 3 minute bit or did they actually think no-one would notice that the main hero and villain have less screen time together than Superman's son and the henchman he kills?!!
Was half the budget spent on persuading Kevin Spacey to do it?
When Superman goes to hospital, why don't the doctors ask "What the F*** do you want us to do?! He's a F***ing alien! We don't know jack about his anatomy!"?
What happened in the 5 years Superman was away to cause technology to advance 28 years?
Where the people who wrote good reviews watching the same movie?
and finally, Why? Just, Why?
BTW, for those of you wondering how come Superman could lift an entire continent of krypyonite, i think i've figured it out...
...since superman is unaffected by the kryptonite till he sees something green in the rocks, it is clearly all in his head. therefore the continent thing is just him suppressing his fear of shiny green rock....

If you could cut out the voice-over and change the spin of the program to a positive testament of how people can overcome setbacks to achieve a goal out of the ordinary then this could've been great - but I feel I've wasted about 45 minutes of my life whilst watching a 60 minute programme.

A: Yes, some plots are a bit hard to follow, and The Bill does have a tendency to get violent, but it is actually an engrossing show, that I try not to miss. A vast majority of the episodes are very exciting and quite tense, and the acting is fairly good, though I do miss Roberta Taylor as Inspector Gina Gold and Todd Carty as Gabriel Kent. I will admit, I prefer the older episodes to the newer episodes, and it is a bit of a shame that the programme is now after the watershed, as I found it easier to watch when it was at 8.00. Still, why I like The Bill is because not only it is engrossing, but the cliffhangers at the end do make the next episode unmissable. It is true though, that it is more melodramatic than it was, but I really like this programme as a programme that doesn't try to take itself too seriously. 8/10 Bethany Cox
Q: What's an example of a movie review?
An example of a movie review is here: The film starts out very slowly, with the lifestyle of Wallace Napalm, an attendant at a photo-service drop-off station. His wife has been restricted to her home with an ankle bracelet as the result of a sentence for arson. Wallace is a member of the volunteer fire department, and takes firefighting seriously.
As we watch Wallace's rather dull life proceeding, suddenly there comes something new and jarring: a traveling carnival comes to town. One of its stars is Wilder Napalm, Wallace's brother. He's a clown, but he has a special talent.
So does Wallace. They're both pyrokineticists or "pyrotics," people capable of starting fires through mental energy. Wallace keeps his powers secret; Wilder lets his acquaintances know what he can do.
Spoiler: Some of their differences go back to a childhood incident where they inadvertently caused the death of a vagrant. Wallace holds back from using his powers; Wilder wants to go public on national TV.
Complicating the matter, Wilder wants Wallace's wife, whom they both dated years earlier. She becomes a bone of contention, and becomes one of the reason that the brothers finally have a literal firefight.
The film is entertaining, but not laugh-out-loud funny. I think enough of it to have a copy in my library. It's a good offbeat film.

Returning home from the London 2012 Paralympic Games, I discovered the level of U.S. media coverage for a global sports event. Ten days of competition, 21 sports, and 503 events crammed into five-and-a-half hours of coverage. To think that we have 227 athletes who just returned home after representing Team USA at the largest Paralympic Games in history, where 2.7 million tickets were sold, and most Americans didn't even know about it. That hits home personally, not only because I am a Paralympian, but because four-and-a-half years ago I was like most Americans and didn't know about the Paralympics. Opinion: The Paralympics were brilliant, why weren't you watching? Before I was paralyzed, I didn't so much as know the word Paralympics even existed. I was raised in a well educated household in Minnesota, but I knew nothing about the Paralympics until after my paralysis in 2008. After I was paralyzed swimming saved me; swimming gave me hope again and allowed me to believe in what my future could hold. From disaster to triumph: A week in the life of Mallory Weggemann. Swimming, and being involved in the Paralympics, changed my life and changed me as a person. Silent voices. I saw how getting involved in not only the Paralympics, but athletics changed my life. I have heard countless stories of amazing ability that my fellow Team USA teammates displayed. But how many of them were and are heard? How many Paralympians are household names in the United States? How many households are aware of the Paralympics? The biggest difference I noticed though was the appreciation for Paralympic athletes overseas. During the Paralympics, when I left the village and went into London, people knew about the Games, not just knew about them but respected them and were following them. The media coverage was totally different there. You couldn't turn on the television without seeing it, much like it is during the Olympics here in the States. For me it is my hope that I can continue to help push the Paralympic movement forward for generations of athletes to come, just as those before me paved the way for opportunities I have been fortunate enough to experience. So it is a weird feeling being back home. Four years of waiting and working and just like that it is all over. I have spent time at home unpacking and organizing my things and it feels like yesterday I was packing my bags for the start of this adventure. I trained for four-and-a-half years and it is already over. I am back home and making plans as to what I do next, starting to plan my next four years as I begin training for the Rio 2016 Games. Overcoming adversity. I will be honest, coming home from London isn't what I expected it to be. My goal was to come home as the Games' most successful athlete; my goal was to bring home nine gold medals. As I got on the plane to return to Minnesota I carried one gold medal and one bronze, but I carried them with pride. What I had to go through to earn both of those medals makes them more meaningful than nine golds ever could be. That medal represents more than just a winning performance. That one gold medal represents hope, belief, overcoming adversity, a dream and my supporters who backed me throughout the entire journey. When I look at it I see everything I went through to get it, the ups and the downs, the joy and the pain. When I look at my gold medal, I see a dream that I made four-and-a-half years ago and the journey it took to achieve that dream. In life we all make plans. We have this idea of how things are supposed to go and when they don't go according to plan we often find ourselves disappointed. I feel that it is in those moments that we find who we are. Life doesn't go according to a plan. We can map it out, we can plan it, we can even envision it but often we find that life has a plan of its own. My life this past month had a plan of its own. It didn't matter that I had planned that moment for the past four years, it didn't matter that I had done everything in my power to try and control the situation. When the day came to a close the plan I had envisioned wasn't the plan that life had for me. Bubble. Over these past few weeks, as I have tried to understand what happened and make sense of it all, I have realized everything happens for a reason. There is a reason I was reclassified in London, there is a reason life threw me another curve ball, and there is a reason I am sitting here in a wheelchair. As I came back home, I continued to reflect on London and felt many emotions. As an athlete I have put a lot of thought into what I can do different next time. What can I change in my preparations over these next four years before the Rio 2016 Games? I have also found myself settling back into life. When I was in London we as athletes were in this little bubble, the village. We were away from the real world in many ways. We didn't think of what day of the week it was or what the date was, we thought of what day of competition it was. Most of us were cut off from the real world because our lovely cell phones didn't work internationally. But then we return home and real life hits. You no longer are completely focused on competition; you are no longer surrounded by other athletes in the bubble. You are home.

Text: Lord Wallace advised the UK government on Scots law during the Conservative-LibDem coalition.
He argues there is a "clear role" for the Scottish Parliament in plans to repatriate laws from Brussels in a Great Repeal Bill.
The UK government said the implications for devolved areas would be discussed.
The Supreme Court will consider next week whether the UK Parliament must vote to trigger Article 50 - starting the formal process of leaving the EU.
The Scottish government's top law officer, Lord Advocate James Wolffe, will argue in that case that Holyrood should have a say too.
Lord Wallace believes it is unlikely the court will give Holyrood a formal role in triggering Article 50.
But he argues incorporation of European law into UK statute raises the question of the Sewel Convention, whereby the UK parliament does not normally legislate with regard to devolved matters in Scotland without the consent of the Scottish Parliament.
The Liberal Democrat peer is one of a few politicians to have served in both the Scottish and UK governments.
At Westminster, he was Advocate General between 2010 and 2015.
He was deputy first minister of Scotland between 1999 and 2005 and served as acting first minister on two occasions.
Prime Minister Theresa May promised a Great Repeal Bill in the next Queen's Speech, to remove the European Communities Act 1972 from the statute book and enshrine all existing EU law into British law.
The repeal bill will enable the UK Parliament to amend and cancel any unwanted legislation and also end the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice in the UK.
Lord Wallace's argument focuses on the need for legislative consent for laws which cover matters devolved to Scotland.
He says: "My view is it will repeal the European communities act of 1972, as there's so much legislation affecting vast areas of our lives, which have been made under that act, it's more likely to be a great re-enactment act.
"I think at that point there is clearly a role - for the potential of a legislative consent motion, because many of the things we're talking about impact on areas of devolved competence; farming, fishing, the environment.
"There's a huge amount of legislation there that's been done to implement European directives, that takes us right into the competence of the Scottish parliament and Scottish ministers."
Asked if that could give Holyrood a veto, Lord Wallace added: "You're into a hypothetical situation there. But it's an important hypothetical situation.
"Legally, the Westminster parliament is still sovereign. The Scotland Act, even as it's been amended, still says that. The UK parliament could pass this without a legislative consent motion. That's the legal position.
"The political situation is somewhat different."
Did the UK lose its sovereignty in 1972?
Reality Check: How would the UK rid itself of EU law?
SNP MP Joanna Cherry, who is also a QC, disagrees with Lord Wallace on whether triggering Article 50 needs Holyrood's backing, but agrees on the Great Repeal Bill.

Question:
Article:London Ambulance Service (LAS) attended 50 callouts in the financial year 2013-14. This rose to 129 in 2014-15 and 271 in 2015-16.
The sale of psychoactive substances such as Spice was banned in May.
Last year they were linked to more than 100 deaths in the UK and attributed to a rise in violent assaults in prison.
The ambulance service figures obtained as part of a BBC Freedom of Information Act request showed nine people needed hospital treatment in 2011-12.
This rose to 178 in 2015-16. Between April and June this year there has been 69 incidents, with 38 needing hospital treatment.
The Angelus Foundation - which warns people of the dangers of psychoactive substances - described it as an "escalating problem".
A spokesman said homeless people and prisoners were more likely to be affected by using drugs such as Spice, which is a synthetic cannabis.
"There [is] a switch amongst homeless people from substances like heroin and crack and alcohol to Spice because it's cheaper and more potent," he said.
The YMCA charity warned before the Psychoactive Substances Act was passed that two-thirds of young people who used the drugs were likely to continue using them.
Chief Executive Denise Hatton said it was clear the harms associated with legal highs were growing and called for the ban to be "supplemented with impartial information and advice, along with specialist support".
Neil Thomson, deputy medical director at LAS said the use of "legal highs" was an issue for paramedics.
"Substance misuse can pose a big problem for our service especially at large public events where we treat many people who present symptoms having taken these types of drugs," he added.
Summarize the main points of that article.
Answer:
The number of people needing help from paramedics after taking so-called legal highs has more than doubled each year since 2013.
input: Article: The account details were taken from forums associated with the site on which porn fans discuss favourite scenes and performers.
It is thought attackers stole data using vulnerabilities in the vBulletin software used to run the chat forum.
Brazzers said it had taken measures to stop fraudsters re-using login names found in the list.
News website Motherboard said the information about Brazzers users was passed to it by Vigilante.pw, which monitors breaches. The dump of data includes email addresses, user names and passwords spelled out in plain text. Many firms typically digitally scramble or encrypt passwords to protect them even if they go astray.
The data was taken from the Brazzersforum site that was set up for users but it appears that many people who signed up for the chat forums used the same logins and passwords on the main porn site. The data was stolen in 2013 but has only now come to light.
Security researcher Troy Hunt confirmed that the data in the dump was accurate by checking some of the details via the database of stolen credentials he maintains.
Mr Hunt told Motherboard that the release of the data was potentially more embarrassing than just knowing someone was a member of a porn site because, if someone used the stolen logins, they could see private conversations about sexual preferences.
"Problem with a hack like that is it's a forum," he said. "Worse than just adult website creds, this is what people were talking and fantasising about."
In a statement, Brazzers confirmed that the breach occurred via the vBulletin software used to keep the forum running.
Mr Hunt said the widely used vBulletin software was often poorly maintained by forum administrators who did not apply the latest security patches leaving sites vulnerable to attack. Several recent breaches had all been traced back to vBulletin, he added.
Brazzers said it had taken "corrective measures" to protect users and stop credentials being re-used.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
With the number of musicians that have jumped into the fashion scene, it will be fairly easy to find a style that works for you. Who better to give you expert advice on Hip Hop style than those that are part of the fashion forward movement? Sean John by P. Diddy, Rocawear by Jay-Z, the River Island Collection by Rihanna, or T.I.’s AKOO are only a few of the clothing lines available to you and all made Fuse’s list of “12 Dope-est Hip Hop Fashion Lines”. Beauty comes in all different sizes and so do clothes. When it comes to dressing Hip-Hop you want to ensure you are selecting clothes that fit your body type. Wearing something that fits too tight, or is way too big, will make it seem like you are trying too hard and may not necessarily look on you the way it does on someone else. Hip-Hop is about expressing your own fashion tastes and allowing your inner goddess to come to the surface. Even if you grew up in the 1980s, when hip-hop fashion was really hitting the scene, you will find that the style you were accustomed to seeing then has taken a turn in many directions. While red Kangol hats, big rimmed sunglasses, and old school Adidas sneakers were cool back in the day you will want to upgrade to something more modern and make sure it suits your age.

Police carried out mounted charges at the protesters, who had gathered outside the consulate as the diplomatic row between the two nations escalated.
The Turkish minister has been sent to Germany, Rotterdam's mayor says.
Protesters were reportedly throwing bottles and mobbing police cars.
Fatma Betul Sayan Kaya, Turkey's minister of family and social policies, had arrived by road on Saturday ahead of a rally planned to help harness the votes of Turks living in the Netherlands.
They will be voting in a referendum next month on whether to expand Mr Erdogan's powers.
But when she arrived, Dutch authorities refused to allow her entry to the consulate, sparking a stream of angry tweets.
Ms Kaya has since left the Netherlands, the mayor of Rotterdam confirmed early on Sunday morning.

Rangers say they recovered a firearm, ammunition and other tools used for rhino poaching from the scene.
It is the latest in a series of attempts to reverse the rising trade.
Demand for rhino horn has soared in recent years - fuelled by the belief in parts of Asia that it has medicinal properties.
The black market price of rhino horn is now in the region of £35,000 ($55,000) a kilogram.
Last year, South Africa recorded more than 300 cases of poaching.
Despite the prospect of high-level prosecutions, the financial rewards for criminals are helping to fuel the trade.

Question:
Article:Susan Hewitt, 49, died accidentally two days before Christmas, a coroner ruled.
Dewi Pritchard-Jones said he believed the former vice president of Deutsche Bank, had slipped because it was wet underfoot at Nant Ffrancon in Bethesda.
The inquest at Llangefni in Anglesey heard homes received their water supply from the nearby stream and the pipe could be dislodged in rough weather.
The hearing was told Mrs Hewitt would sometimes check the water supply up to three times a day.
Summarize the main points of that article.
Answer:
A woman slipped and drowned in a stream after checking the water supply to her home in heavy rain, an inquest heard.
Article: The Balquhidder community broadband project will connect about 200 households and businesses.
The project will cost about £300,000 with the funding being provided by private and public investors, including Stirling Council.
Work is expected to begin in the summer with the project due to be completed next year.
Richard Harris, one of the project leaders, told BBC Scotland that the efforts of local volunteers will be essential.
He said: "Most of the work is not particularly specialised, it's basically a plumbing job.
"A project like this is only viable, given the small size of the community, if you have a large amount of volunteer labour.
"The way we're doing it is to split it into about a dozen sectors.
"We're going to do some at a time, so that we can get the revenue coming in from subscriptions from the properties in each sector to help cash flow the next one."
Miles of plastic piping will be laid in the trench, which is about 450mm deep and 100mm wide, with boxes at intervals to run smaller pipes into each property.
The fibre optic cable will then be blown through the ducting pipes with compressed air.
Local residents currently experience sporadic mobile phone reception and very low or non-existent internet connections.
Mr Harris said: "The houses at the very end of the glen near the main road get maybe 2 to 4mb on a good day, it's very unreliable.
"The rest of us get not very much at all. The further up the glen we go, the worse it gets.
"Many of us are on expensive, under-performing, unreliable satellite dishes at the moment."
Mr Harris said the lack of broadband was having a detrimental effect on local businesses and households.
He said: "The farmers can't put in their Defra returns, they can't put in their stock movement sheets.
"Hotels can't get bookings as people physically can't book with them, or people won't book with them because they don't have broadband.
"Young people are forced to leave and don't come back because there's nothing for them here, because of the lack of connectivity."
Residents have been campaigning for greater internet access in the area for more than 10 years.
Mr Harris said: "We are three years into the actual project, almost all of which has been taken up with bureaucracy around the funding.
"We've just decided to do it ourselves with the funding we have.
"Up to now, we've been running on a volunteer basis, with some sponsorship from local businesses and individuals.
"Assuming we get all the funding discussions resolved in the next two weeks, we are getting started almost immediately."
Mr Harris said the first rolls of ducting pipe have arrived, with the villagers set to get to work on the project soon.
He said: "We hope to get the main backbone, running east to west, rolled out this summer.
"It depends on volunteer labour and when farmers aren't lambing or haymaking.
"We are hoping to get a large part of it online this year and the rest finished in the early to mid part of next year."

It was a takedown worthy of Uncle Phil, but it came courtesy of Aunt Viv.
Janet Hubert — best known for playing the original Aunt Vivian on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air from 1990 to 1993 — took to Facebook on Monday to voice her opinion on Jada Pinkett Smith saying she will not watch or attend the Academy Awards because of a lack of diversity among this year's nominees. Hubert believes the boycott is really because Pinkett Smith's husband and Hubert's former co-star, Will Smith, was not nominated for his role in Concussion.
"First of all, Miss Thing, does your man not have a mouth of his own with which to speak?" Hubert said in a video message. "Second thing is, girlfriend, there's a lot of s—t going on in the world that you all don't seem to recognize. People are dying, our boys are being shot left and right, people are hungry, people are trying to pay bills, and you're talking about some…actors and Oscars. It just ain't that deep." Hubert said that the Smiths are asking people to jeopardize their careers, and she finds it "ironic" that Pinkett Smith has made "millions and millions of dollars from the very people that you're talking about boycotting." ||||| Janet Hubert didn't hold back speaking out against Jada Pinkett Smith boycotting the Academy Awards this year.
Hubert -- who played Aunt Vivian on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air -- posted a video response to Will Smith's wife, who announced that she will not be attending the Oscars due to the lack of diversity among the nominees. "First of all, Miss Thing, does your man not have a mouth of his own with which to speak?" Hubert declared. "The second thing, girlfriend, there's a lot of sh** going on in the world that you all don't seem to recognize. People are dying. Our boys are being shot left and right. People are starving. People are trying to pay bills. And you're talking about some motherf**king actors and Oscars. It just ain't that deep."

Hubert also did not agree with Jada asking other people in Hollywood to boycott the awards show. "And here's the other thing, for you to ask other actors, and other black actresses and actors, too, to jeopardize their career and their standing in a town that you know damn well you don't do that," she said. "And here's the other thing -- they don't care. They don't care! And I find it ironic that somebody who has made their living, and made millions and millions of dollars from the very people you're talking about boycotting just because you didn't get a nomination, just because you didn't win. That is not the way life works, baby."

On Fresh Prince, Hubert played Aunt Viv from 1990 to 1993 before she was replaced by Daphne Maxwell-Reid. During her rant against Jada's Oscars boycott, the actress called out her former on-screen nephew -- whose work in Concussion was snubbed by the Academy -- for not helping her and her co-stars negotiate raises while she was on the show. "Karma's a b**ch," Hubert exclaimed. "You ain't Barack and Michelle Obama, and y'all need to get over yourselves."
ET caught up with several stars at the Critics' Choice Awards to get their take on the boycott. "I don't know if avoiding it altogether is going to help, but I just think we have to continue to move forward," Niecy Nash explained. "We have this awareness and this spotlight -- we've got to look at other work. There's other work out there that I think was missed. We've just got to do better."

– Janet Hubert, who played the "original" Aunt Viv on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air from 1990 to 1993, has a message for former co-star Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, the Week reports. Pinkett Smith recently announced she'd boycott the Oscars over the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' failure to nominate any black actors for the second year in a row, but Hubert isn't impressed with her activism. "Girlfriend, there's a lot of s--- going on in the world that you all don't seem to recognize. People are dying, our boys are being shot left and right, people are hungry, people are starving, people are trying to pay bills, and you're talking about some motherf-----' actors and Oscars. It just ain't that deep," says Hubert, who thinks Pinkett Smith is only boycotting because her husband wasn't nominated for Concussion, in a Facebook video. Speaking of which, "maybe you didn't deserve a nomination," Hubert says, turning her attention to Will Smith. She alleges that the Fresh Prince cast once wanted Smith to help them negotiate raises, and he refused. "Well, karma must be a b----, because now here you are. Here you are, and you've had a few flops. And you know, there are those out there who really deserved a nod," like Idris Elba, who is "an incredible actor. You are not. ...

Keane are an English rock band from Battle, East Sussex, formed in 1995. The band currently comprises Tom Chaplin (lead vocals, electric/acoustic guitar), Tim Rice-Oxley (piano, synthesisers, bass guitar, backing vocals), Richard Hughes (drums, percussion, backing vocals), and Jesse Quin (bass guitar, acoustic/electric guitar, backing vocals). Their original line-up included founder and guitarist Dominic Scott, who left in 2001. Keane achieved mainstream, international success with the release of their debut album, Hopes and Fears, in 2004.
In a March 2007 video interview, Chaplin and Hughes spoke of wanting to take a more "organic" approach on album three, but played down suggestions about the use of guitars, referring to them as "a fun part of the live set" at present; however, the cover of "She Sells Sanctuary", became the first song recorded since "The Happy Soldier" (2001) to feature the instrument. Photographic updates to the Keane website also implied the use of guitars in the album's recording sessions. Jesse Quin joined the band since this album as permanent studio and live member. He plays the bass, percussion, guitar, synths and backing vocals. On 25 August 2008, Keane appeared as studio guests on BBC 6 Music with Steve Lamacq where three of the new songs from Perfect Symmetry were played for the first time: "Spiralling", "The Lovers Are Losing", and "Better Than This". The album was released on 13, October 2008, and reached number one on the UK Albums Chart on 19 October. It also reached number 7 on the Billboard 200 chart. In December 2008, it was voted Best Album of the Year by the readers, listeners and visitors of Q Magazine, Q Radio and Qthemusic.com. The song "Perfect Symmetry" was voted best track. In November of the same year, they started their third world tour, the Perfect Symmetry World Tour. On 2 April 2009, Keane became the first band ever to broadcast a live show in 3D. It was filmed at Abbey Road, the site of the world's first satellite broadcast (by The Beatles). Keane fans were prompted to buy 3D glasses along with the new 7" single, "Better Than This", or also to hand-make their own glasses. The show is available to watch on Keane's official site in high definition.

Problem: Orange Is the New Black Star's Reddit AMA : People.com
has produced a few breakout characters in its three seasons so far, and one of them is Carrie "Big Boo" Black, a gruff but lovable inmate played by
DeLaria, 57, who has been acting since 1994, did
on Monday that had her giving candid answers to fan questions about the show, about Boo and about being a self-described butch lesbian in a pop culture landscape where such women aren't often seen. Here are give of the more interesting tidbits DeLaria shared.
(And here's your spoiler warning: DeLaria's answers reveal some minor plot points from the show's third season, but what kind of
fan hasn't powered through all 13 episodes already?)
Upon being asked about the strangest thing she'd ever been told at a meet-and-greet, DeLaria had a good answer: "Sign my boob." She elaborated that she's never one to let down a fan, either. "Of course I signed it!" she said. "
! I'm going to say no to that?!?"
On another occasion, a fan asked her to sign a screwdriver. (If you don't watch, then just know that a screwdriver has served an unconventional role on the show.)
"They had a sharpie and everything, came running out of the Ace Hardware on the corner in Bushwick where I live, about 48 hours after the first season dropped, screaming 'BIG BOO, BIG BOO, sign my screwdriver!' "
When one fan asked what she enjoyed most about her scenes in the most recent season with Taryn Mannin, who plays Pennsatucky on the show, DeLaria said the best part was Manning herself. "She's
cool and talented," DeLaria said. "Very giving, as an actor. In fact, we hang out quite a bit off the set as well."
In the season premiere, her character wears clown makeup for a special Mother's Day event at the jail, but it proved problematic for Manning, DeLaria explained.
"Taryn and I would talk and laugh between takes, and this particular day, she kept looking away, she wouldn't look at me, I knew she was doing something very emotional and she wouldn't look at me," DeLaria said. "So Andrew McCarthy (the director) came out and said, 'Why are you being so quiet, Taryn?' and Taryn said, 'I can't look at Lea, otherwise I'll start laughing!' "
And yes, by the way, it's
, who has directed several episodes of the Netflix series.
One Redditor asked what Lyonne's hair smells like. DeLaria's answer? A dog.
"Her dog's name is Root Beer. So I'm going to say her hair smells like her dog. (I'm saying that to be funny. But I'll probably get a text from her in a few minutes.)"
One fan asked if DeLaria is at all like her
persona. DeLaria, who shares a few qualities with Big Boo, had a good response.
"No, I'm very shy and demure," she joked. "And actually, I'm heterosexual and married to a really nice man. We have 2 kids, a collie, and a station wagon!"
(DeLaria explained elsewhere that the character was written especially for her.)
Upon being asked what she likes most about her character on the show, DeLaria explained that she knows how rare it is to have a fully realized butch lesbian character onscreen.
"My favorite thing about playing Boo is how 3-dimensional and real she is. Until this show, whenever a Butch lesbian was portrayed, in ANY media form, she was always stupid, a truck driver, drank too much, beat her girlfriend," DeLaria said. "Boo is not only smart, she's the smartest person in the prison. And she has a heart of gold. There's not an ounce of violence in her."
Asked if there was an
character she just can't stand, DeLaria had two responses.
"Sam Healey. I think he's a jerk," she said. "They keep trying to give him good qualities, but he always does something that pisses me off! And of course, who liked Vee? (Except for Crazy Eyes.)"
Later, she was asked which inmate Boo should get into a relationship with, and DeLaria didn't hesitate with an answer: "Oh please. What am I, stupid?
! She's the f------ star of the show! Then I get to be in every scene!"

Input: Stephen Strasburg goes for second MRI exam, and the injury experts wait
Stephen Strasburg isn't pitching on Thursday, but it will feel like a game day for the injury gurus.
The Nationals right-hander is scheduled to have his second MRI exam in less than a week as the team tries to gather more information about the strained flexor tendon in his right forearm that sent Strasburg to the disabled list. This will be an "enhanced" MRI exam in which dye will be injected to give a more detailed look at the area in question.
As the Nationals and baseball fans wait for the results, Will Carroll, Stephania Bell and others like them try to fill the void with analysis, insight and some speculation.
Carroll writes a column for Baseball Prospectus called "Under The Knife" and has a video with a thorough and easy-to-understand explanation of Strasburg's injury. Bell is a physical therapist who provides injury analysis for ESPN.com.
They both agree that Strasburg is unlikely to return this season. The second MRI exam will presumably show whether the injury is more severe than a strain, and that could create one of two scenarios:
The ideal result is there is nothing in Strasburg's forearm beyond a strain and he just needs to rest. That scenario, too, could mean the Nationals opt to sit him for the remainder of this season.
Joe Posnanski of Sports Illustrated is no injury expert, but the Strasburg injury is nothing new to him. Writes Posnanski:
The arm isn't built to throw a baseball as hard as Strasburg throws it. The arm isn't built to make a baseball do the things that Strasburg can make it do. ... It's scary because he has that chance to be a great one. It's scary because we've seen this before.
In the meantime, let's all huddle around the MRI machine and wait for it to unlock that latest mystery of the universe.

QUES: In other events of the nineteenth century, The Times opposed the repeal of the Corn Laws until the number of demonstrations convinced the editorial board otherwise, and only reluctantly supported aid to victims of the Irish Potato Famine. It enthusiastically supported the Great Reform Bill of 1832, which reduced corruption and increased the electorate from 400,000 people to 800,000 people (still a small minority of the population). During the American Civil War, The Times represented the view of the wealthy classes, favouring the secessionists, but it was not a supporter of slavery.
The Times greatly supported what bill in 1832 which reduced corruption and increased the electorate?
ANS: Great Reform Bill of 1832
QUES: In 1997, the Vienna Philharmonic was "facing protests during a [US] tour" by the National Organization for Women and the International Alliance for Women in Music. Finally, "after being held up to increasing ridicule even in socially conservative Austria, members of the orchestra gathered [on 28 February 1997] in an extraordinary meeting on the eve of their departure and agreed to admit a woman, Anna Lelkes, as harpist." As of 2013, the orchestra has six female members; one of them, violinist Albena Danailova became one of the orchestra's concertmasters in 2008, the first woman to hold that position. In 2012, women still made up just 6% of the orchestra's membership. VPO president Clemens Hellsberg said the VPO now uses completely screened blind auditions.
How many female members were part of the Vienna Philharmonic in 2013?
ANS: six
QUES: The Super Nintendo Entertainment System (officially abbreviated the Super NES[b] or SNES[c], and commonly shortened to Super Nintendo[d]) is a 16-bit home video game console developed by Nintendo that was released in 1990 in Japan and South Korea, 1991 in North America, 1992 in Europe and Australasia (Oceania), and 1993 in South America. In Japan, the system is called the Super Famicom (Japanese: スーパーファミコン, Hepburn: Sūpā Famikon?, officially adopting the abbreviated name of its predecessor, the Family Computer), or SFC for short. In South Korea, it is known as the Super Comboy (슈퍼 컴보이 Syupeo Keomboi) and was distributed by Hyundai Electronics. Although each version is essentially the same, several forms of regional lockout prevent the different versions from being compatible with one another. It was released in Brazil on September 2, 1992, by Playtronic.
What company developed the Super Comboy in Brazil in 1990?

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Learn about your students' needs. Make the physical environment accessible. View each student as an individual. Avoid assumptions. Watch your tongue. Guide student behavior. Work with everyone involved.
Answer: Get to know each student one-on-one. Your classroom may include students who have some disability and students who have none, and specific disabilities may vary among students who face them. To promote an inclusive environment, you'll need to know which needs exist and must be met. Keep in mind that no two disabled students are the same. Some disabilities exist on a spectrum (such as varying degrees of low vision), and others are extremely complex (such as autism). Talking to the parents/guardians, and getting to know the child, will help you understand their unique needs. Recognize that not all disabilities may be diagnosed yet. Sometimes, people close to the child haven't recognized that the child is different or struggling. You may have several students with unrecognized disabilities. Don't assume that you can defeat or cure disability. Instead, work with the child at their level, and encourage them to gain skills one step at a time. You'll need to use the right tools if you want to meet the needs of students in your classroom. A physical environment that is somehow “off limits” to some of your students will make it impossible for those students to learn or feel welcome. The exact tools will vary based on students' needs. For instance, students with vision impairments may need materials in large print or Braille. Those with speech impairments may benefit from speech synthesizers. Those with hearing impairments may need a sign language interpreter and subtitled instructional videos. Some students will have needs that are not immediately obvious. For instance, some autistic students may have a sensitivity to light and sound, so rooms with soft light and minimal noise create a preferred learning environment. Unfortunately, even well-meaning individuals can end up labeling disabled students by their disabilities. Instead of fixating on the things your students cannot do, focus on your students' abilities and individual accomplishments. Viewing disabled students with pity or guilt does not empower them. Instead, you may accidentally send the message that they are less capable or less whole. Mean-spirited assumptions aren't the only hazardous ones to watch out for. In fact, well-intended assumptions can be just as damaging and might be harder to prevent. If one of your students appears to need help with something, ask instead of automatically jumping in to help. Some students may prefer to work through certain difficulties themselves. Others may appreciate your help, but may also want you to help using an approach you may not have thought of. Language is important when creating the right attitude. As a general rule, use language that affirms the identity of each student while avoiding language that is considered derogatory or language that otherwise focuses on the disability instead of the individual. Refer to disabilities in simple language free from emotional judgments. In other words, instead of saying that someone "suffers from" or "is crippled by" a given disability, it would be better to simply state that they are "a person with" that disability (or, in the case of deaf, blind, or autistic people, a "_____ person"). Over-sensitivity can actually be harmful, too. Awkwardness over common phrases can draw unwanted attention to an impairment and may make a student feel more left out. If such phrases come up, it is best to gloss over them without making a fuss about them. For instance, if you or another student says "see you later" to a blind student, it is best not to point out the awkwardness of such a phrase unless the blind student indicates that they are upset by the remark. As the instructor, you must guide non-disabled students in your classroom as they interact with their disabled peers. Encourage a positive and cooperative attitude among all classmates under your care. Pay attention to your own biases and preconceptions, then correct those errors as soon as possible. You will serve as a role model to your students, and poor behavior you demonstrate will be taught to them. Set ground rules regarding discussion and classroom behavior. When someone violates these rules and behaves inappropriately to another student, point out the violation and issue an appropriate consequence. Follow through consistently regardless of whether or not disabled students are involved and, if so, regardless of which position they find themselves in (i.e., the attacker or the victim). Don't enforce rules with disabled students that non-disabled students can get away with breaking. Nip bullying in the bud. Make it clear that students need to respect others' boundaries, praise students for intervening if they see bullying, and take victims seriously if they report being bullied. In most cases, others will be actively involved in the care and education of the disabled students in your classroom. Work directly with these guardians, counselors, and advisers when addressing those students' needs. Discuss your students' needs with their guardians. You may have insight to share with them, and they will almost certainly have insight to share with you. Depending on the circumstances, students with disabilities may need therapy from an outside specialist. These specialists may work through the school or may come from another source. Either way, it can be to everyone's benefit to communicate with such specialists when determining the best way to arrange classroom activities and instruction.
Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Determine your server's address. Forward a port on your router Open Filezilla. Click File. Click Site Manager…. Click New Site. Enter your server's address. Add the forwarded port number. Click Connect. Move files onto the server.
Answer: If you're paying for an FTP server through a hosting service (e.g., Bluehost), you'll need to know the service's IP address or regular address in order to connect to it. If you're hosting your own server from your computer, you'll use your computer's IP address, which you can figure out by entering ifconfig in Terminal and then reviewing the "inet addr" number. If "ifconfig" isn't installed, you can install it by entering sudo apt-get install net-tools in Terminal. . Once you know your server's IP address, you'll need to forward your router's port 21 slot to that address; make sure that the port uses TCP (not UDP or a mixture of the two). Port forwarding varies from router to router, so be sure to check the linked article or your router's documentation for instructions. Type filezilla into Terminal and press ↵ Enter. After a moment, FileZilla will open. If you want to connect via Terminal, you can try typing in ftp [address]. As long as your server is running and you have Internet access, this will attempt to connect to your FTP server; however, you may not be able to transfer files. It's in the top-left corner of the FileZilla window. Doing so prompts a drop-down menu. You'll find this option in the drop-down menu. The Site Manager window will open. It's a white button in the lower-left side of the window. Doing so opens the New Site section of the Site Manager. In the "Host:" text field, type in the address (or IP address) of the FTP server to which you want to connect. Type 21 into the "Port:" text field. It's a red button at the bottom of the page. Doing so will prompt FileZilla to connect your computer to your FTP server. You can click and drag folders from the left-hand window into the right-hand window to upload them to your FTP server page.
Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Go to a doctor if you notice any of the symptoms listed in this article. Be aware that there are three grades of ACL injury. Have a doctor perform the Lachman test. Be prepared for the Pivot Shift test. Have an x-ray taken of your knee. Know that an MRI might need to be done.
Answer: | While you may be able to use this article as a guide to help you figure out if you are injured, you still must go to the doctor to get a professional diagnosis. It would be bad to think that you are ok, only to put pressure on your knee and injure it further. Schedule an appointment for as soon as possible after the injury. If you can, you may also go to the hospital to deal with the injury right away. When your ACL gets injured, it is referred to as a sprain rather than a broken bone because it is a ligament (though it can feel as painful as breaking a bone). The term 'sprain' refers to more than just the stretching of the ligament, it is actually the classification the is used to refer to ligament injuries. There are three levels of ACL injury. A grade 1 ACL sprain involves mild injury to the ligament. It has been slightly stretched but not torn. It can still sustain the knee joint and will help the leg remain stable. A grade 2 ACL sprain is when the ligament is stretched beyond its capacity to the point it becomes loose. This is when the technical term “partial tear of the ACL” is used. A grade 3 ACL sprain makes the knee joint unstable and the ligament is completely torn apart. You must have a doctor do this test—do not try it yourself. This is the preferred test for figuring out if you have a partial ACL tear because it can show that you have a partial tear even when the rest of the ligaments and tendons in your knee are uninjured. A doctor will: Have you lie down on a table. Your doctor will first look at your uninjured knee to see how far your shin moves forward when your knee is bent. Your ACL keeps your shin from moving very far forward. Your doctor will then look at your injured knee and see how far your shin moves forward when the knee is bent. If it moves forward further than normal but your doctor can still feel resistance, it means that you have a partial tear. If there is no resistance, your ACL has been fully torn. This test is meant to determine how much pressure can be put on your injured knee before it becomes unstable. Your doctor will move your injured leg a little ways away from your body (this is called hip abduction). She will then: Straighten your leg while simultaneously press inward against the outer part of your knee and twist your leg outward. Doing this will show how well your ACL is functioning because it is a movement that only involves the ACL. Your leg will be slowly bent while continuous pressure is put on it. When your knee is bent at a 20 to 40° angle, your doctor will look at your shin bone. If the bone slides forward a bit it means that your ACL has been partially torn. While the ACL cannot be seen through an x-ray, your doctor can look for other evidence that you ACL has been partially torn. An x-ray of both knees is necessary to detect signs of injury such as fracture, improper alignment of the bony structures, and narrowing of the spaces between joints. All three of these injuries are associated with a partial ACL tear. Unlike an x-ray, an MRI will help your doctor to examine your soft tissue structures in your knee, including your ACL. Your doctor will also look at your meniscus and other knee ligaments to make sure that they are not injured. Your doctor might also request an oblique coronal image if he or she is still not sure about the extent of your injury. This image will give the doctor a better view of your knee in addition to the MRI. | Flan2021 | gem/wiki_lingua_english_en:1.1.0 | fs_noopt |

Problem: Lewis Robert "Hack" Wilson (April 26, 1900 - November 23, 1948) was an American Major League Baseball player who played 12 seasons for the New York Giants, Chicago Cubs, Brooklyn Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies. Despite his diminutive stature, he was one of the most accomplished power hitters in the game during the late 1920s and early 1930s. His 1930 season with the Cubs is widely considered one of the most memorable individual single-season hitting performances in baseball history. Highlights included 56 home runs, the National League record for 68 years; and 191 runs batted in, a mark yet to be surpassed. "
Wilson made his major league debut with the Giants on September 29, 1923 and became the starting left fielder the following season. By mid-July he was ranked second in the National League (NL) in hitting. He ended the season with a .295 average, 10 home runs, and 57 runs batted in (RBIs) as New York won the NL pennant. In the 1924 World Series he averaged only .233 in a seven-game loss to the Washington Senators. Multiple stories exist to explain the origin of Wilson's nickname: By one account, a New York newspaper held a nicknaming contest; the winning entry was "Hack" because he reminded many fans of another stocky athlete, the popular wrestler Georg Hackenschmidt. In another version, McGraw is said to have remarked that Wilson's physique was reminiscent of a "hack" (slang for taxicab in that era). Giants teammate Bill Cunningham claimed that the nickname was based on Wilson's resemblance to Hack Miller, an outfielder with the Chicago Cubs. The New York Times printed the first documented usage of "Hack" on June 10, 1924. Early in the 1925 season Wilson hit the longest home run on record at Ebbets Field against the Brooklyn Robins, but fell into a slump in May, and was replaced in left field by Irish Meusel. On July 2 he hit two home runs in one inning, tying Ken Williams' major league record set in 1922, but his hitting slump continued. In August McGraw told reporters that he had "...made the mistake of rushing [Wilson] along," and sent him to the Giants' minor league affiliate, the Toledo Mud Hens of the American Association. At season's end, a front office oversight--or possibly, deliberate inaction--left him unprotected on the Toledo roster, and the last-place Chicago Cubs acquired him on waivers. "They let go the best outfielder I ever played alongside", said Giants right fielder Ross Youngs, "and they're going to regret it." During the 1925 World Series -- between the Senators and the Pittsburgh Pirates -- Wilson's son, Robert, was born.
Did he perform well for the Giants
Answer with quotes: He ended the season with a .295 average, 10 home runs, and 57 runs batted in (RBIs)
Problem: Earvin "Magic" Johnson Jr. (born August 14, 1959) is an American retired professional basketball player and current president of basketball operations of the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played point guard for the Lakers for 13 seasons. After winning championships in high school and college, Johnson was selected first overall in the 1979 NBA draft by the Lakers. He won a championship and an NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award in his rookie season, and won four more championships with the Lakers during the 1980s.
In 905 NBA games, Johnson tallied 17,707 points, 6,559 rebounds, and 10,141 assists, translating to career averages of 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 11.2 assists per game, the highest assists per game average in NBA history. Johnson shares the single-game playoff record for assists (24), holds the Finals record for assists in a game (21), and has the most playoff assists (2,346). He is the only player to average 12 assists in an NBA Finals series, achieving it six times. He holds the All-Star Game single-game record for assists (22), and the All-Star Game record for career assists (127). Johnson introduced a fast-paced style of basketball called "Showtime", described as a mix of "no-look passes off the fastbreak, pin-point alley-oops from halfcourt, spinning feeds and overhand bullets under the basket through triple teams." Fellow Lakers guard Michael Cooper said, "There have been times when [Johnson] has thrown passes and I wasn't sure where he was going. Then one of our guys catches the ball and scores, and I run back up the floor convinced that he must've thrown it through somebody." Johnson could dominate a game without scoring, running the offense and distributing the ball with flair. In the 1982 NBA Finals, he was named the Finals MVP averaging just 16.2 points, the lowest average of any Finals MVP award recipient in the three-point shot era. Johnson was exceptional because he played point guard despite being 6 ft 9 in (2.06 m), a size reserved normally for frontcourt players. He combined the size of a power forward, the one-on-one skills of a swingman, and the ball handling talent of a guard, making him one of the most dangerous triple-double threats of all time; his 138 triple-double games are second only to Oscar Robertson's 181. Johnson is the only player in NBA Finals history to have triple-doubles in multiple series-clinching games. For his feats, Johnson was voted as one of the 50 Greatest Players of All Time by the NBA in 1996, and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002. ESPN's SportsCentury ranked Johnson #17 in their "50 Greatest Athletes of the 20th Century" In 2006, ESPN.com rated Johnson the greatest point guard of all time, stating, "It could be argued that he's the one player in NBA history who was better than Michael Jordan." Several of his achievements in individual games have also been named among the top moments in the NBA.

Q: Complete:
Like an old comedian reprising an ancient routine, Harry Redknapp turned in a bold and breezy post – match performance last night. His timing was slick, his patter engaging and his confident assertion that better times lie just ahead carried a degree of conviction. Then we remembered his team's performance, and we realised he was tap – dancing on a trap – door. For Rangers are every bit as poor as their League position suggests. Bereft of ideas, pace, intelligent cohesion and adequate ability, they fail just about every test which the top division imposes upon its members. A more confident, more ruthless side than the current United would have buried them beneath an avalanche of goals. But even this United were eventually able to impose themselves with the minimum of challenge.
And by now

- Fellaini were finding the gaps which had eluded them.

JACKSON, Missouri (CNN) -- Debbie Shank breaks down in tears every time she's told that her 18-year-old son, Jeremy, was killed in Iraq. Debbie Shank, 52, has severe brain damage after a traffic accident in May 2000. The 52-year-old mother of three attended her son's funeral, but she continues to ask how he's doing. When her family reminds her that he's dead, she weeps as if hearing the news for the first time. Shank suffered severe brain damage after a traffic accident nearly eight years ago that robbed her of much of her short-term memory and left her in a wheelchair and living in a nursing home.

– Consider it a not-so-veiled threat. The UN General Assembly votes Thursday on whether to reject President Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and US Ambassador Nikki Haley is warning that the US will be paying very close attention. "When we make a decision, at the will of the American ppl, abt where to locate OUR embassy, we don't expect those we've helped to target us," she tweeted. "On Thurs there'll be a vote criticizing our choice. The US will be taking names." In a letter circulated to other countries, Haley reiterates the point, reports the Guardian. "As you consider your vote, I encourage you to know the president and the US take this vote personally," she writes, adding that she'll be reporting back to Trump on the nay votes. It's unclear whether the US pressure will work. When the Security Council voted on a similar measure Monday, the other 14 members of the council voted against the US. However, because the US has veto power on the council, the measure failed anyway. No such vetoes are in play during the General Assembly vote, which is being held at the request of Arab and Muslim states, reports the BBC. A draft of the non-binding resolution asks the General Assembly to declare the American move "null and void," and Palestinian Ambassador Riyad Mansour predicts victory: "The General Assembly will say, without the fear of the veto, that the international community is refusing to accept the unilateral position of the United States."

US will 'take names of those who vote to reject Jerusalem recognition'
The US ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, has warned UN members she will be “taking names” of countries that vote to reject Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
In a letter seen by the Guardian, Haley told countries – including European delegations – that she will report back to the US president with the names of those who support a draft resolution rejecting the US move at the UN general assembly on Thursday, adding that Trump took the issue personally.
Haley writes: “As you consider your vote, I encourage you to know the president and the US take this vote personally.
“The president will be watching this vote carefully and has requested I report back on those who voted against us,” she continued.
Haley followed the letter by tweeting: “At the UN we’re always asked to do more & give more. So, when we make a decision, at the will of the American ppl, abt where to locate OUR embassy, we don’t expect those we’ve helped to target us. On Thurs there’ll be a vote criticizing our choice. The US will be taking names.”

The Trump administration’s heavy-handed approach to foreign policy – often in breach of both international consensus and diplomatic niceties – has alienated even close allies.
The 193-member UN general assembly – which has no vetoes – will hold an emergency session on Thursday to vote on the proposed measure that the US vetoed at the security council earlier this week.
There was fury in Washington over Monday’s vote, in which the US was isolated in a 14-1 vote requesting Trump withdraw his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

According to Haaretz, Israel has sent instructions to its own diplomatic missions ordering ambassadors to seek meetings with officials to persuade them to direct their representatives at the UN to oppose the draft resolution at the general assembly and ask them not to make speeches.
A copy of the draft resolution, also seen by the Guardian, calls on the general assembly to declare the US move “null and void”.
It also demands that countries avoid “any decisions and actions which purport to have altered the character, status or demographic composition of the Holy City of Jerusalem” and calls upon all states to comply with existing security council resolutions.
The UN general assembly meeting was requested by Turkey and Yemen on behalf of the Arab group of countries and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation.
The two countries circulated a draft resolution on Tuesday that mirrors the vetoed measure Egypt had put forward at the security council meeting, which was backed by all members apart from the US.
The Palestinian ambassador, Riyad Mansour, said he expected “overwhelming support” for the measure stating that Jerusalem was an issue “to be resolved through negotiations” between Israel and the Palestinians.
“The general assembly will say, without the fear of the veto, that the international community is refusing to accept the unilateral position of the United States,” Mansour told reporters.
Trump’s decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel’s capital broke with international consensus, triggering protests across the Muslim world and drawing strong condemnation. Key US allies including Britain, France, Italy, Japan and Ukraine were among the 14 countries in the 15-member council that voted in favour of rejecting the move.
After that vote, Haley described the 14-1 vote as “an insult” and warned: “It won’t be forgotten.”
After the clash at the top UN body, the White House announced that the US vice-president, Mike Pence, was delaying a trip to the Middle East planned for this week.
Israel seized control of the eastern part of Jerusalem in the 1967 Middle East war and regards all of Jerusalem as its undivided capital. The Palestinians view the east as the capital of their future state.
Several UN resolutions call on Israel to withdraw from territory seized during the 1967 war.
The vote in the emergency session of the general assembly follows an annual vote on Tuesday where members voted 176-7 to affirm the Palestinian right to self-determination, suggesting the level of support the draft resolution could potentially command on Thursday.
Saudi Arabia’s King Salman pledged the kingdom’s support for east Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state during talks with Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, on Wednesday.

The US says it "will be taking names" during a UN General Assembly vote on a resolution criticising its recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
Permanent representative Nikki Haley warned member states that President Donald Trump had asked her to report on "who voted against us" on Thursday.
The draft resolution does not mention the US, but says any decisions on Jerusalem should be cancelled.
Mr Trump later threatened to cut off financial aid to those who backed it.
"They take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we're watching those votes," he told reporters at the White House. "Let them vote against us. We'll save a lot. We don't care."
The status of Jerusalem goes to the heart of Israel's conflict with the Palestinians.
Israel occupied the east of the city, previously occupied by Jordan, in the 1967 Middle East war and regards the entire city as its indivisible capital.

The Palestinians claim East Jerusalem as the capital of a future state and its final status is meant to be discussed in the latter stages of peace talks.
Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem has never been recognised internationally, and all countries currently maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv. However, President Trump has told the US state department to start work on moving the US embassy.
The 193-member UN General Assembly will hold a rare emergency special session on Thursday at the request of Arab and Muslim states, who condemned Mr Trump's decision to reverse decades of US policy earlier this month.
The Palestinians called for the meeting after the US vetoed a Security Council resolution, which affirmed that any decisions on the status of Jerusalem were "null and void and must be rescinded", and urged all states to "refrain from the establishment of diplomatic missions in the holy city".
The other 14 members of the Security Council voted in favour of the draft, but Ms Haley described it as an "insult".
The non-binding resolution put forward by Turkey and Yemen for the General Assembly vote mirrors the vetoed Security Council draft.
The Palestinian permanent observer at the UN, Riyad Mansour, said he hoped there would be "overwhelming support" for the resolution.
But on Tuesday, Ms Haley warned in a letter to dozens of member states that encouraged them to "know that the president and the US take this vote personally".
"The president will be watching this vote carefully and has requested I report back on those countries who voted against us. We will take note of each and every vote on this issue," she wrote, according to journalists who were shown the letter.
"The president's announcement does not affect final status negotiations in any way, including the specific boundaries of Israeli sovereignty in Jerusalem," she added. "The president also made sure to support the status quo of Jerusalem's holy sites."
Ms Haley echoed the warning on Twitter, writing: "The US will be taking names."
Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki and his Turkish counterpart, Mevlut Cavusoglu, accused the US of intimidation.
"We see that the United States, which was left alone, is now resorting to threats. No honourable, dignified country would bow down to this pressure," Mr Cavusoglu told a joint news conference in Ankara on Wednesday before travelling to New York. ||||| Tweet with a location

British innovator James Dyson has described patent laws across Europe as "absolute madness" Dyson says the current system involves many expenses due to varying jurisdictions throughout the continent. He says a Europe-wide patent is the answer.
Article: | British innovator James Dyson, who has built a multi-billion dollar empire around his distinctive vacuum cleaners, has described patent laws across Europe as "absolute madness", saying they are unhelpful for inventors and small businesses. Dyson told CNN he wants the patent system in Europe radically overhauled. Over the last four decades, Dyson said, he has been affected enormously by people copying his ideas. Government leaders are continuously telling businesses that innovation drives the economy. But Dyson points to the red tape surrounding the patenting process as being a massive hurdle for businesses wanting to develop ideas. "The problem with inventing: as soon as you file a patent they see what you are doing and they can see ways to get around it," said Dyson, who made his fortune inventing a bagless vacuum. The 64-year-old is an outspoken critic of Chinese counterfeiters, calling on governments to do more to protect intellectual property rights. Problems can arise because of the wording of the patents, Dyson said. "There are no diagrams or drawings and often something hinges on the particular phrasing of the patent." According to Dyson, if it is obvious someone has copied another person's ideas they should be dealt with without the parties going through a protracted legal battle. "There shouldn't be this endless rigmarole of 'could this have been devised by one skilled in the art?'" Because the current system involves many expenses due to varying jurisdictions throughout the continent, a Europe-wide patent is the answer, according to Dyson. "You have to file in each country, you have to translate in each country, sue in each country, renews in each country -- it's seen as a profit center for each country." Issues surrounding plagiarism are not limited to businesses, with consumers also feeling the impact of the high cost of producing and securing new inventions, Dyson said. Energy-saving and cost effective products and technology won't be created because of the enormous upfront investment it takes to develop them, he said "It's anticompetitive to make copying easy."

Q: TEXT: By. Sarah Griffiths. PUBLISHED:. 13:43 EST, 1 November 2013. |. UPDATED:. 13:59 EST, 1 November 2013. Adults were to play Super Mario 64 for 30 minutes a day over a period of two months. While some people might think getting engrossed in a video game is a waste of time, scientists have found they can increase the size of our brains. German researchers found video gaming causes increases in the brain. regions responsible for spatial orientation, memory formation and. strategic planning as well as fine motor skills. They believe the benefits of video gaming may also prove helpful in therapeutic interventions targeting psychiatric disorders. In order to examine how video games affect the brain, scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Human Development and Charité University Medicine St. Hedwig-Krankenhaus, asked adults to play Super Mario 64 for 30 minutes a day over a period of two months. A control group did not play the game and the researchers measured brain volume using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. They found that in comparison to the people who did not play video games, the regular gamers showed increases of grey matter, in which the cell bodies of the nerve cells of the brain are situated. This growth was seen in the right hippocampus, right prefrontal cortex and the cerebellum. German researchers found video gaming causes increases in the brain regions responsible for spatial orientation, memory formation and strategic planning as well as fine motor skills. Scientists studied MRI images to investigate which areas of the brain were enlarged. These parts of the brain are involved in functions such as spatial. navigation, memory formation, strategic planning and fine motor skills. of the hands and the changes were most noticeable in participants who. were eager to play the game. 'While previous studies have shown differences in brain structure of video gamers, the present study can demonstrate the direct causal link between video gaming and a volumetric brain increase,' said study leader Simone Kühn, senior scientist at the Centre for Lifespan Psychology at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development. 'This proves that specific brain regions can be trained by means of video games,' he added. Dr Kühn and her colleagues believe that video games could be used as therapy for patients with mental disorders, in which brain regions are altered or reduced in size, such as schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder or neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s dementia. Psychiatrist Jürgen Gallinat, co-author of the study at Charité University Medicine St. Hedwig-Krankenhaus, said: 'Many patients will accept video games more readily than other medical interventions.'

Q: TEXT: WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Terrorists are likely to use a weapon of mass destruction somewhere in the world in the next five years, a blue-ribbon panel assembled by Congress has concluded. Police watch over travelers at New York's Grand Central Terminal before Thanksgiving. They are more likely to use a biological weapon than a nuclear one -- and the results could be devastating, the chairman of the commission told CNN. "The consequences of a biological attack are almost beyond comprehension. It would be 9/11 times 10 or a hundred in terms of the number of people who would be killed," former Sen. Bob Graham said. He cited the flu virus that killed millions of people in 1918 as an example. "Today it is still in the laboratory, but if it should get out and into the hands of scientists who knew how to use it for a violent purpose, we could have multiple times the 40 million people who were killed 100 years ago," he said. Watch how officials worry about a biological terror attack ». The U.S. government "needs to move more aggressively to limit" the spread of biological weapons, the commission said in its report. Graham warned that such measures would be costly, but were necessary. "The leadership of this country and the world will have to decide how much of a priority ... they place on avoiding the worst weapons in the world getting in the hands of the worst people in the world," he said. "It is not going to be cheap. It is not going to be accomplished without some sacrifices. It won't be accomplished without putting this issue ahead of some other competing national and international goals. But I think our safety and security depend upon doing so," he added. Graham said a biological attack was more likely than a nuclear one because it would be easier to carry out. Biological weapons "are more available," he said. "Anthrax is a natural product of dead animals. Other serious pathogens are available in equally accessible forms." "There are so many scientists who have the skills to convert a pathogen from benign, helpful purposes into an illicit, very harmful weapon," he added. But the commission warned that there is also a threat of nuclear terrorism, both because more countries are developing nuclear weapons and because some existing nuclear powers are expanding their arsenals. "Terrorist organizations are intent on acquiring nuclear weapons," said the report, which was published Tuesday on the Internet and will be officially released Wednesday. CNN obtained a copy of the report Monday evening. It cited testimony before the commission from former Sen. Sam Nunn, who said that the "risk of a nuclear weapon being used today is growing, not receding." The report recommends a range of measures, including increased security and awareness at biological research labs and strengthening international treaties against the spread of biological and nuclear weapons. "Many biological pathogens and nuclear materials around the world are poorly secured -- and thus vulnerable to theft by those who would put these materials to harmful use, or would sell them on the black market to potential terrorists," the report warned. The commission expressed particular concern about the nuclear programs of Iran and North Korea, and about Pakistan, which it described as "the intersection of nuclear weapons and terrorism." While observing that Pakistan is a U.S. ally, the report said, "the next terrorist attack against the United States is likely to originate from within the Federally Administered Tribal Areas" in Pakistan. The tribal areas lie in northwest Pakistan where the government exerts little control; the United States says it is a haven for militants from both Pakistan and neighboring Afghanistan. Congress created the commission to investigate and report on WMD and terrorism in line with a recommendation from the 9/11 Commission, which compiled a report on the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States. Commissioners heard testimony from more than 250 experts from around the world over the course of their six-month investigation. CNN's Jeanne Meserve contributed to this report.

Q: Watch This Guy Play All The James Bond Theme Songs In Less Than A Minute
There have been 24 theme songs for the James Bond movies, including Tina Turner’s “Goldeneye”, Nancy Sinatra’s “You Only Live Twice,” Shirley Bassey’s “Diamonds Are Forever,” Carly Simon’s “Nobody Does It Better,” Adele’s “Skyfall” and Duran Duran’s “A View To A Kill.” If you don’t recognize a few of those entries, then it’ll only take a minute (literally) to watch YouTube guitar maestro Chad Neidt run through all of them in 60 seconds flat.
Neidt is a self-professed Bond, James Bond, fan and he decided to pay his respects to the super spy with his impressively speedy guitar slinging. Neidt set the timer for 60 seconds and cruised through all 24 theme songs, topping it off with a hasty homage to Sam Smith’s Spectre contribution, “Writing’s On The Wall” without even breaking a sweat. It’s an impressive feat, even for a civilian.

Q: Boehner disagrees with Sarah Palin on impeaching Obama
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio (J. Scott Applewhite, AP)
House Speaker John Boehner may want to sue President Obama, but he says he doesn’t want to impeach him.
Asked at the Capitol on Wednesday whether he agrees with Sarah Palin that Obama should face impeachment charges, the House’s top Republican simply said: “I disagree.”
Boehner is pursuing a lawsuit against Obama, charging that the president “has not faithfully executed the laws” on a wide range of issues, including health care. The speaker said in an op-ed column for CNN that the GOP-controlled House will bring legislation to the floor this month authorizing such a lawsuit.
Palin said in Breitbart News that Obama’s response to an influx of immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border illegally “is the last straw” and called for the president’s impeachment.
Palin, the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, said in an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News that a message needs to be sent to Obama that he is “not an imperial president.” She sounded dismissive of Congress, saying “Washington is broken,” and of Boehner’s lawsuit.
“You don’t bring a lawsuit to a gunfight, and there’s no room for lawyers on our front lines,” Palin said.

Be on time.
Give yourself plenty of time to commute to the office and get to meetings or other appointments. Be early to give yourself time to prepare or just catch up on emails or other tasks.
- Make a schedule for yourself and stick to it. Do not keep yourself, or anyone else, too flexible during the day.;
- Try to aim to arrive at the office an hour earlier each day than you do on monday mornings. That way, your workday time will come before your commute time.;
- Even if you are late you still need to take a few minutes for yourself, that extra time shouldn't be used up. Even if you are late, being especially punctual with your appointments is important and can help you stay calm and focused.;
- Try tracking the time it takes you to get to work every day to see what the true average is, and adjust your timing accordingly.

CLOSE President Obama doubled down Wednesday on an increasingly questioned pledge: There will be no U.S. ground combat troops back in Iraq. VPC

President Obama doubled down Wednesday on an increasingly questioned pledge: There will be no U.S. ground combat troops back in Iraq.
"I will not commit you, and the rest of our armed forces, to fighting another ground war in Iraq," Obama told troops at the U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Fla.
After a briefing with military leaders at CENTCOM, Obama said forces in Iraq and Syria must fight ground battles against the Islamic State, a jihadist group also known as ISIL and ISIS.
Obama also said the United States — which is conducting airstrikes in Iraq and planning them in Syria — will be joined by a coalition of other nations under threat by the Islamic State.
"This is not and will not be America's fight alone," Obama said.
The renewed pledge of no U.S. combat troops came amid some skepticism over whether the United States can follow through on a plan that relies on Iraqi and Syrian forces to roll back the Islamic State.
Robert Gates, former Defense secretary for Obama and predecessor George W. Bush, has questioned whether the president can achieve his goal of defeating the Islamic State without U.S. ground forces.
"They're not gonna be able to be successful against ISIS strictly from the air, or strictly depending on the Iraqi forces, or the Peshmerga, or the Sunni tribes acting on their own," Gates told CBS This Morning. "So there will be boots on the ground if there's to be any hope of success in the strategy."
Gates also told CBS that Obama is doing himself a disservice by echoing his pledge against combat troops.
"I think that by continuing to repeat that, the president in effect traps himself," Gates said.
Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in congressional testimony Tuesday: "To be clear, if we reach the point where I believe our advisers should accompany Iraqi troops on attacks against specific ISIL targets, I will recommend that to the president."
Dempsey and administration officials stressed that Dempsey supports the plan as-is and was answering hypothetical questions from lawmakers. His comments referred to U.S. advisers who will work with Iraqi forces, not U.S. ground combat units.

Tamping down questions about a mission expansion, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Obama would not even "review or consider" options that include U.S. combat troops.
Obama campaigned for the White House — twice — on pledges to wind down and end wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The administration's plan against the Islamic State, unveiled last week, relies on training Iraqi and Syrian forces to take the ground fight to the Islamic State. The United States is focusing on airstrikes against IS positions, starting last month in August and perhaps extending to Syria later.
"After a decade of massive ground deployments, it is more effective to use our unique capabilities in support of partners on the ground so they can secure their own countries' futures," Obama told the troops in Tampa. "We'll use our air power ... We will train and equip our partners."
He also said: "The American forces that have been deployed to Iraq do not and will not have a combat mission. They will support Iraqi forces on the ground as they fight for their own country against these terrorists."
Some lawmakers, particularly Republicans, have questioned whether the plan will be enough, especially without more troops.
"We have made this decision not to have ground troops," said Rep. Jack Kingston, R-Ga. "We do not need another half-pregnant war in the Middle East. If it is important enough to fight, it's important enough to win."
Iraq's new prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, backed Obama's no-combat position, telling the Associated Press that foreign ground troops are not necessary or wanted in the fight against the Islamic State.
While the Islamic State does not pose an immediate threat to the United States, Obama told the troops at Central Command that "its leaders have repeatedly threatened America and its allies."
The president has deployed some 1,600 advisers to Iraq in advisory and assistance roles, including defense of the U.S. embassy in Baghdad and the U.S. consulate in Irbil.
Moving forward, the anti-Islamic State plan could involve the covert use of special forces, but that is not something Obama and aides will discuss in public.
Read or Share this story: http://usat.ly/1u8oiFi ||||| Emphasizing the American military’s unrivaled expertise, President Obama thanked service members Wednesday and repeated that U.S. forces taking on the Islamic State militant group would not serve in combat, a day after his top general repeatedly raised that prospect.
American forces “do not and will not have a combat mission,” Obama told troops at the U.S. Central Command headquarters here. “They will support Iraqi forces on the ground as they fight for their own country against these terrorists.”
He made that pledge a day after Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the military’s top officer, described for a Senate panel the challenges of fighting the militants without combat troops on the ground.
“If we reach the point where I believe our advisors should accompany Iraqi troops on attacks against specific ISIL targets, I’ll recommend that to the president,” Dempsey said Tuesday, using an alternate acronym for the extremist group.
Obama has repeatedly said that the U.S. strategy would not involve troops on the ground. That policy, however, allows him room to maneuver. He’s already authorized 1,600 troops to advise and train Iraqi forces, and White House officials have not ruled out the possibility that that number may grow.

Obama also deliberately has specified that U.S. combat troops would not be deployed to “fight” -- a distinction that allows for the possibility that U.S. special forces might be used in a rescue mission, as was the case this summer in the failed attempt to retrieve U.S. hostages being held by Islamic State militants in Syria.
At Central Command, Obama cited the U.S. military’s expertise and indicated it would be better used in the strategy he has laid out, as the leader of a coalition of nations committed to fighting the extremists.
“As your commander in chief, I will not commit you … to fighting another ground war in Iraq,” he said. “After a decade of massive ground deployments, it is more effective to use our unique capability in support of partners on the ground so they can secure their own countries’ futures.”
The extremist group Islamic State has seized large swaths of territory in Iraq and Syria for its self-styled caliphate. The militants espouse an especially harsh interpretation of Islam and have used brutal tactics to impose their rule.
He listed the commitments other nations have already made, asserting that more than 40 have offered help for the broad campaign.
France and Britain are “flying with us over Iraq,” he said, and Saudi Arabia has committed to host training for regional fighters.
Australia and Canada will send military advisors to Iraq, Obama said, and German paratroopers will assist in training.
“Arab nations have agreed to do what they can to strengthen Iraq’s government,” he said, and others have agreed to help “stem the flow of foreign fighters into and out of” the region.
Obama is expected to ask the United Nations Security Council to commit to that goal when it meets next week.
In the wake of the Dempsey comments, though, some analysts argued that Obama’s strategy was actually too military in nature. Defeating the extremists requires a strategy that emphasizes diplomacy, intelligence and economics, said Jon B. Alterman, director of the Middle East program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
Those tools aren’t as easy to see in the short term, said Alterman, but “they present the only path to victory: crippling the organization’s networks, denying the group safe haven and undermining the conditions that make it attractive to potential recruits.”
“While the Obama strategy is more than merely a military strategy, it appears militarily focused,” Alterman wrote in an email Wednesday. “The president’s speech on Iraq and Syria focused on military instruments, and used the language of the military, twice promising to 'degrade and destroy' the Islamic State. Perhaps the president was seeking to capitalize on the urgency of this month’s murders, and only military instruments seemed urgent enough.”
“As Gen. Martin Dempsey suggested before the Senate, they may beget even more military action,” he said. “Military instruments are enough to fight, but in this battle, they are not nearly enough to win.”
During a week of events meant to bolster Obama’s foreign policy credentials with the public, the White House also saw evidence of the challenges facing the president as he tries to help fellow Democrats keep control of the Senate in the fall elections. A New York Times/CBS News poll out Wednesday showed his approval ratings on par with those of Republican President George W. Bush near the 2006 midterms -- when Democrats swept both houses of Congress.
Recent opinion research has suggested growing support among Americans for a more aggressive U.S. military posture, as Obama is prescribing.
But the latest poll raises questions about whether that translates into support for the president himself. The poll’s 34% approval rating for his handling of foreign policy is a record low for him, though it isn’t as low as Bush’s eventual low of 25%.
And Obama’s 41% rating for his handling of terrorism is lower than any score on that issue for both him and his predecessor.
On Wednesday, the president reiterated the parts of his strategy to take on the militants that have drawn criticism and insisted that the old way of fighting in the Middle East will not work.
“When we do things alone, and the people of those countries aren’t doing it for themselves, as soon as we leave we start getting the same problems,” he said. “We’ve got to do things differently.”

What is a summary? | – A day after a top US general raised the possibility of US ground troops in the fight against ISIS, President Obama reiterated the promise he's been making of late: "I will not commit you, and the rest of our armed forces, to fighting another ground war in Iraq," the president told troops at US Central Command in Tampa, Fla., reports USA Today. American forces “do not and will not have a combat mission,” he said. “They will support Iraqi forces on the ground as they fight for their own country against these terrorists.” Obama, however, seems to be leaving himself room to maneuver though the use of special forces, not combat troops, observes the LA Times. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey told a Senate panel yesterday that under certain circumstances—in heavily populated areas such as Mosul, for instance, where airstrikes might not be effective—he might recommend to Obama that special forces enter the fray on the ground to guide Iraqi units. The New York Times is worried: "There is no way to read this other than as a reversal from the firm commitment Mr. Obama made not to immerse the country in another endless ground war in the Middle East," says an editorial today. | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_noopt |

The Republic of Ireland and the United States have signed an agreement extending the 12-month J1 visa for another three years.
+++++++
A: It was originally agreed in 2008 and has been renewed on a two-year basis since then.
On Monday, it was renewed for a further three years.
The bilateral agreement signed between the Irish and US governments relates only to the 12-month J1 visa.
It does not apply to the four-month programme, which many Irish students use to spend a summer working in the US.
There have been concerns about the future of the J1 programme given previous remarks from US President-elect Donald Trump that he plans to end the scheme.
In August 2015, in a position paper posted on his website, Mr Trump said: "The J1 visa jobs programme for foreign youth will be terminated and replaced with a résumé bank for inner city youth provided to all corporate subscribers to the J1 visa programme."
However that paper is no longer available on his website and the same pledge is not contained in his latest policy paper on immigration.
Despite the signing of Monday's agreement, uncertainty still hangs over the programme as Mr Trump could shut it down by executive order once he takes office on 20 January.
In 2015, 1,319 Irish people availed of the 12-month J1 visa, and around 7,000 took part in the four-month J1 Summer Work Travel Programme.
About 300 Americans availed of the reciprocal arrangement and travelled to Ireland for a 12-month period of travel and work.

Birmingham Hippodrome is to reopen after a £1.2m refurbishment which included its stage being replaced.
+++++++
A: The theatre has been closed since 26 August while the 30-year-old plywood stage was ripped out and boards that are 10cm thicker put in.
The orchestra pit has been refurbished and new ticket kiosks and 500 low-energy light bulbs have been installed.
Resident company the Birmingham Royal Ballet will give the first performance on the new stage on Wednesday night.
First soloist with the BRB Victoria Marr said: "[The old stage] had a lot of wear and tear: it had started to show signs of ageing and it got a little bit dangerous.
"For us, wearing pointe shoes which are inherently slippery anyway, any little lump or bump in the surface can make it precarious."
Birmingham Hippodrome's stage was last refurbished in 1982 and the theatre said it had become uneven and started to split in places.
It said the new stage was made from heavy duty 11-inch (28cm) plywood.
Chief executive Stuart Griffiths said the refurbishment had been "long overdue".
He said: "We've had probably 1,000 shows and about 10,000 performers a year - that takes its toll.
"It just got to the point where we needed to provide an even, stable stage especially for dance and ballet."
The money to pay for the refurbishment has come from donations from grant-making trusts, local businesses, while almost £113,000 has been collected from audience members, the theatre said.

Canadian pop star Justin Bieber has been banned from performing in China, according to Beijing's Culture Bureau.
+++++++
A: In a statement, the ministry said it was not appropriate to allow in entertainers who have engaged in "bad behaviour."
"Justin Bieber is a gifted singer, but he is also a controversial young foreign singer," it added.
The statement was issued in response to a question recently submitted by a user of the bureau's website.
"We hope that as Justin Bieber matures, he can continue to improve his own words and actions, and truly become a singer beloved by the public," the statement said.
By John Sudworth, BBC Beijing correspondent
To its list of hostile foreign forces - one assumes ranking somewhere below the Dalai Lama and Taiwanese separatists - China has added the name Justin Bieber.
The news came in a statement from the Beijing municipal culture bureau, answering a question from a fan about why, with the singer about to embark on an Asia-wide tour, no venues have been scheduled in mainland China.
Justin Bieber is indeed "talented at singing" came the reply, but nonetheless it would not be appropriate to allow him to perform, because of what it called a number of incidents of "bad behaviour." It did not elaborate on exactly which of Mr Bieber's run-ins with the law it was referring to.
The pop star, who was allowed to tour China in 2013, joins a long list of musicians who have found themselves similarly blacklisted. Most though, like the British band Oasis and the US group Maroon 5, because of perceived political statements, rather than on the grounds of bad behaviour.
This hasn't been the first time the Sorry singer has caused controversy in Asia.
In 2014, Bieber caused upset on social media after he posted a photo of himself visiting the controversial Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo.
The shrine honours fallen warriors and pays tribute to convicted war criminals but in China and South Korea, the shrine is seen as a symbol of Japan not being sorry for its empire's past.
But despite the singer taking the photo down and apologising, the Chinese were outraged. Their foreign minister's spokesperson said he hoped the singer had left Yasukuni with "a clear understanding of Japan's history of invasion and militarism, and of the source of Japan's militarism".
Justin Bieber will be performing in Asia as part of his Purpose World Tour from September, and will be playing in Japan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Singapore and Indonesia.

An open letter has led to the removal by Cambridge University of an online video featuring David Starkey after a row over racism.
+++++++
A: | The letter, signed by hundreds of staff and students, was prompted by previous comments made by the historian.
In response, the university said it had taken down the video earlier than it had planned to.
Starkey has refused to comment on the allegations of racism.
Starkey, who attended Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, took part in the three-minute video "Dear World", which featured other university alumni such as Sir Ian McKellen, Professor Stephen Hawking, and Lily Cole.
The letter calling for the removal of the video - made in a bid to raise £2bn for the university - alleges Starkey has "repeatedly made racist statements".
It cites a 2011 Newsnight interview in which the constitutional historian said: "A substantial amount of the chavs have become black. The whites have become black; a particular sort of violent destructive, nihilistic gangster culture has become the fashion."
Referring to his appearance in the video, the letter says: "In our eyes, Starkey's presence both undermines and taints our daily efforts to function as a united community."
The university said it had always intended that the current video would be replaced with a new one, and that whilst they appreciate Starkey has made "controversial statements in the past", he was "representing his affection for the university and its values."
Dr Malachi MacIntosh, director of English Studies at King's College, who signed the letter said "we're glad to see the video taken down".
"We're trying now to arrange to speak with the University about how best to proceed," he said.
"Our ultimate goal is to ensure these kinds of campaigns truly represent the best of Cambridge."

Weeds will compete for the soil’s nutrients and slow the development of young thyme plants. Control the weeds around seedlings either through weeding or mulching. Mulching with limestone gravel or builder’s sand can improve drainage around the plants and prevent root rot. You can try other mulches made of organic matter like leaf mold or straw, as well. Thyme is a hardy, drought-resistant herb. You need to water the plants on a regular schedule, but not often. Too much water will cause root rot. Give the plants a good watering when you see the soil around them has gone completely dry. Soak the ground thoroughly and wait until the soil dries completely before watering your plants again. Once your seedlings take off, the plants will need very little attention to thrive. Thyme doesn’t need a lot of nutrients to survive and too much fertilizer will cause it to lose its flavor and become gangly. Mulch your plants in autumn with organic matter like leaf mold, well-rotted animal manure or compost. This will deliver the minimal nutrients thyme requires all year long, as well as protect the plants from frost once winter arrives. If you want your plants to continue being bushy and producing tender stems, you will need to prune your thyme back to half its previous height every spring. Do this after the last frost. If you do this, the next spring it will flourish again. After three to four years of growth with the same plants, their stalks will become woody and the plant will produce fewer leaves. At this point you may want to start a new batch of seedlings, especially if you cultivate thyme for culinary purposes. Use an almanac to check when the last frost usually occurs. After this date, it may be safe to cut back the thyme. | Control the weeds around your plants. Let the soil get completely dry between waterings. Avoid over-fertilizing thyme.

It is also assumed that dull people are particularly suited for dull work . We are told that the reason the present-day young complain so loudly about the dullness of jobs is that they are better educated and brighter than the young of the past .
Actually , there is no evidence that people who achieve a lot desire , let alone live , colorful lives . The opposite is nearer the truth . Einstein worked out his theory of relativity while serving as a clerk in a Swiss patent office . Immanuel Kant's daily life was a dull routine . The housewives of Konigsberg set their clocks when they saw him pass , on his way to the university . He took the same walk each morning , rain or shine . The greatest distance Kant ever traveled was sixty miles from Konigsberg .
It may be true that work on the assembly line dulls the abilities and empties the mind , and the cure is only fewer hours of work at higher pay . But during fifty years as a workingman , I have found dull routine coexisting with an active mind . While doing dull , repetitive work by the water , I could talk with my partners and compose sentences in my mind , all at the same time . Chances are that had my work been too interesting I could not have done any thinking and composing at work or even on my own time after returning from work .
People who find dull jobs unbearable are often dull people who do not know what to do with themselves at leisure . Children and mature people will get used to dull routine , while the adolescent , who has lost the child's ability for concentration and is without the inner resources of the mature , needs excitement and novelty to get rid of boredom .

Q: Norway ( ; Norwegian: (Bokmål) or (Nynorsk); ), officially the Kingdom of Norway, is a sovereign state and unitary monarchy whose territory comprises the western portion of the Scandinavian Peninsula plus the remote island of Jan Mayen and the archipelago of Svalbard. The Antarctic Peter I Island and the sub-Antarctic Bouvet Island are dependent territories and thus not considered part of the Kingdom. Norway also lays claim to a section of Antarctica known as Queen Maud Land. Until 1814, the kingdom included the Faroe Islands, Greenland, and Iceland. It also included Bohuslän until 1658, Jämtland and Härjedalen until 1645, Shetland and Orkney until 1468, and the Hebrides and Isle of Man until 1266.
Norway has a total area of and a population of 5,258,317 (as of January 2017). The country shares a long eastern border with Sweden (1,619 km or 1,006 mi long). Norway is bordered by Finland and Russia to the north-east, and the Skagerrak strait to the south, with Denmark on the other side. Norway has an extensive coastline, facing the North Atlantic Ocean and the Barents Sea.
King Harald V of the Dano-German House of Glücksburg is the current King of Norway. Erna Solberg became Prime Minister in 2013, replacing Jens Stoltenberg. A constitutional monarchy, Norway divides state power between the Parliament, the Cabinet and the Supreme Court, as determined by the 1814 Constitution. The kingdom was established as a merger of a large number of petty kingdoms. By the traditional count from the year 872, the kingdom has existed continuously for 1,145 years, and the list of Norwegian monarchs includes over sixty kings and earls.

Q: CHAPTER XXVIII
A PAINFUL DUTY
Three months had slipped away since the evening on which Wheeler had discussed the subject of shingle-splitting with his companions. Nasmyth stood outside the shanty in the drenching rain. He was very wet and miry, and his face was lined and worn, for the three months of unremitting effort had left their mark on him. Wheeler had secured the timber rights in question, and that was one difficulty overcome, but Nasmyth had excellent reasons for believing that the men who had cast covetous eyes upon the valley had by no means abandoned the attempt to get possession of at least part of it.
He had had flood and frost against him, and his money was rapidly running out. A wild flood swept through the cañon. The heading was filled up, so that no one could even see the mouth of it, and half the rock he had piled upon the shingle had been swept into the rapid, where it had formed a dam among the boulders that could be removed only at a heavy expenditure of time and powder when the water fell. He was worn out in body, and savage from being foiled by the swollen river at each attempt he made, but while the odds against him were rapidly growing heavier he meant to fight.
A Siwash Indian whom he had hired as messenger between the cañon and the settlement had just arrived, and Gordon, who stood in the doorway of the shanty, took a newspaper out of the wet packet he had brought. Gordon turned to Nasmyth when he opened it.

1. While audiences will gasp at the audacity of using real animals instead of drawings, the tale behind the technical achievement is stale and outmoded.
2. Stunning animal photography.
3. Its dramatic success seems to derive largely from putting the inhabitants of separate worlds into a context where both belong.
4. Animal-loving kids will think it's lovely, but it's only a mildly diverting time-waster for the rest of us.
5. A stunning, visually spectacular fable - and those wondrous little tiger cubs are irresistible.
6. Charms when the quadripeds stalk the action but creaks when the bipeds open their mouths.
7. The actors play it straight, clearly aware that the tigers are the stars.
8. Annaud and his deft production team create believable dramatic characters without compromising the dignity of the animals they've borrowed as stars.
9. A strong tiger-centered story drives this endearing drama which takes cute and runs with it, climbs up trees with it, sucks your thumbs with it.
10. Astonishingly dreadful.
