It slowly rises, up your face, to your cheeks. \n\nYou try to push yourself up, but your hands and arms are pinned by the goo. “Help”, you scream, “Help, I’m stuck here! Anyone?” There’s no answer but the wind in the trees, and the patter of rain on your face. You’re alone, being slowly sucked down into this sticky, muddy death-trap.

"value": "Briefly summarize what this scientific news article says about the phenomenon of gravitational lensing caused by massive cosmic objects like galaxy clusters.\n\nHere's the source text:\nThe 1915 theory, which is occasionally called Einstein's geometric theory of gravity, predicts that, as bowling balls placed on a trampoline create a depression, objects with mass cause the very fabric of space-time to warp. This curvature gives rise to the force of gravity. And the greater the mass of a cosmic object, the more extreme the warping of space it causes.\n\nLight travels across the universe in straight lines, but when it encounters a warp caused by a truly massive object, its path is curved. When the warping object is between Earth and a background object, it can curve light in such a way that the apparent position of the background object is shifted.\n\nBut when the intermediate or \"lensing object\" is truly massive — like a monstrous cluster of galaxies, for example — light from the background source takes a different amount of time to reach Earth depending on how close it passes to the natural cosmic lens. \n\nThis effect, called gravitational lensing, can make single objects appear at multiple points in the sky, often in stunning arrangements called Einstein rings and Einstein crosses. It can also cause background objects to appear amplified in the sky, a powerful effect that astronomers use to observe distant and early faint galaxies.\n\nThe distortion caused by massive clusters like eMACS J1823.1+7822 can also help astronomers study mysterious dark matter, which accounts for around 85% of the mass in the universe but is invisible because it does not interact with electromagnetic radiation. Because dark matter does interact gravitationally, however, the lensing of light by a galaxy or galactic cluster can help researchers map the distribution of dark matter."

"value": "This scientific news article discusses gravitational lensing, which is caused by massive cosmic objects and is in line with Einstein's theory of gravity. Objects with high mass can cause the bending of light paths due to the warping of space-time. Gravitational lensing occurs when a large object bends the path of light, causing a shift in the apparent position of a background object. Gravitational lensing creates stunning visual effects such as Einstein rings and crosses. Gravitational lensing helps astronomers see distant and faint galaxies by making them appear larger in the sky. Massive galaxy clusters like eMACS J1823.1+7822 help scientists map the distribution of dark matter, which makes up a significant portion of the universe's mass."

During a New Moon, the side of the moon facing Earth is not lit, appearing completely dark. As the moon moves in its orbit, a small sliver of the illuminated portion becomes visible, marking the Waxing Crescent phase. The illumination gradually increases until the First Quarter, when half of the moon is visible. The moon continues to wax until it reaches the Full Moon phase, where the entire face of the moon appears illuminated. Following the Full Moon, the moon wanes, with the illuminated portion gradually decreasing until it reaches the Third Quarter, marking half of the moon's face being visible. The illuminated portion continues to decrease, leading to the Waning Crescent phase, before transitioning back to the New Moon.

Breastfeeding protects the environment and provides a healthy source of nutrition.\n3.\tShop locally for groceries. Buying local food helps the environment and supports local businesses, plus when you buy organic, you avoid fertilizers and pesticides.\n4.\tMake your baby food. Homemade baby food that contains fresh and healthy ingredients usually has more nutritional value and less sugar than pre-made brands. It also uses less packaging, which helps the environment.\n5.\tBuy sustainable clothing. Avoid baby clothing made from synthetic materials that contribute to pollution. Look for clothes made from sustainable, natural fibers like cotton and wool.\n6.\tDo eco-friendly laundry. Use warm water, not hot, and use eco-friendly detergents and fabric softeners.\n7.\tReuse and recycle. Kids outgrow many items before they wear them out. Reduce waste by shopping secondhand and donating used clothes, toys, books, and other products when your child no longer needs them.\n8.\tClean green. Avoid cleaning solutions with harmful chemicals. Make the switch to non-toxic and biodegradable cleaners.\n9.\tGive your kids handmade toys. Every year, millions of plastic toys end up in landfills. Shop for handmade toys made from natural materials.\n10. Teach by example. If you show your children that you care about nature and the environment, they’ll inherit your desire to protect the earth."

If you want to lose some of that extra weight or want to be able to fit in that bikini, here are some tips that will help you get there:\n\n1. Drink water - drinking enough water to stay hydrated through the day will not only keep you healthy, but it will also help to clean your system. Plus, it can fill you up and help curb your hunger.\n2. Cut out the excess carbs - carbohydrates (rice, sugar, sweets) are okay in moderation, but eating more than a candy bar a day will put extra sugar into your system that your body will not be able to burn off. This extra sugar will be turned into fat. Consider cutting down on the excess carbs and only consuming enough to get you through the day.\n3. Fast - fasting doesn't necessarily require you to go days on end without eating any food. Lots of studies show that intermittent fasting (16-hour fasts) can be more than enough to help your body burn off any excess fat, due to the body needing energy to continue running and borrowing from fat reserves to keep going.\n4. Exercise - get out and move about! Any exercise (even just walking 30 minutes a day) can burn calories and slim your body down.\n5. Portion control - here's a good rule of thumb: if you eat three meals a day, make sure each portion of your meal (carbs, protein, vegetables) are the size of your closed fist. This is a good measurement of how much food you should be eating per meal, and it is a quick way to judge how much you should have without needing measuring cups or scales.\n6. Cut out the fats - as with carbs, limit the amount of fat you eat. Too much fat in your mouth means too much fat on your hips.\n7. Lift weights - resistance training helps to boost your fat-burning capability and tone your body.\n8. Sleep - not getting enough sleep can stunt your metabolism while you are awake."

"value": "Brainstorm for a discursive essay on whether tv is a bad influence on young people today. Make a list of the advantages and disadvantages of television. Consider both sides of the argument. Organise them in pros and cons.\n\nTelevision is one of the most popular devices that are used for entertainment all over the world. It has become quite common nowadays and almost every household has one television set at their place. In the beginning, we see how it was referred to as the ‘idiot box.’ This was mostly so because back in those days, it was all about entertainment. It did not have as many informative channels as it does now.\n\nMoreover, with this invention, the craze attracted many people to spend all their time watching TV. People started considering it harmful as it attracted the kids the most. In other words, kids spent most of their time watching television and not studying. However, as time passed, the channels of television changed. More and more channels were broadcasting with different specialities. Thus, it gave us knowledge too along with entertainment.\n\nBenefits of Watching Television\n\nThe invention of television gave us various benefits. It was helpful in providing the common man with a cheap mode of entertainment. As they are very affordable, everyone can now own a television and get access to entertainment.\n\nIn addition, it keeps us updated on the latest happenings of the world. It is now possible to get news from the other corner of the world. Similarly, television also offers educational programs that enhance our knowledge about science and wildlife and more.\n\nMoreover, television also motivates individuals to develop skills. They also have various programs showing speeches of motivational speakers. This pushes people to do better. You can also say that television widens the exposure we get. It increases our knowledge about several sports, national events and more.\n\nWhile television comes with a lot of benefits, it also has a negative side. Television is corrupting the mind of the youth and we will further discuss how.\n\nHow Television is Harming the Youth\n\nFirstly, we see how television is airing inappropriate content which promotes all types of social evils like violence, eve-teasing and more. Secondly, it is also harmful to our health. If you spend hours in front of the television, your eyesight will get weak. Your posture will cause pain in your neck and back as well.\n\nAdditionally, it also makes people addicted. People get addicted to their TVs and avoid social interaction. This impacts their social life as they spend their time in their rooms all alone. This addiction also makes them vulnerable and they take their programs too seriously.\n\nThe most dangerous of all is the fake information that circulates on news channels and more. Many media channels are now only promoting the propaganda of the governments and misinforming citizens. This causes a lot of division within the otherwise peaceful community of our country.\n\nThus, it is extremely important to keep the TV watching in check. Parents must limit the time of their children watching TV and encourage them to indulge in outdoor games. As for the parents, we should not believe everything on TV to be true. We must be the better judge of the situation and act wisely without any influence."

Relax and Reconnect: Pack a picnic basket with scrumptious sandwiches and refreshing drinks. Head to the park and find a cozy spot under a tree to enjoy a leisurely lunch. Spend the afternoon sharing stories and making memories.\n\n3. Rise and Dine: Start their special day with a delicious breakfast at their favorite café. Spend some quality time together enjoying scrumptious food and sharing some light-hearted chats.\n\n4. Treat Yourself and Your Parents to Some Sweet Delights: While your parents may not want to indulge in a big celebration, who can resist a delicious slice of cake or a decadent sundae? Take your parents to a cozy dessert spot and savor some shared sweets. Bond over your nostalgic childhood favorites or try new dessert delicacies together.\n\n5. Unleash Your Inner Child: Keep the celebration fun and playful by indulging in activities that they love. Take them to a mini-golf course, or an amusement park, or even plan a scavenger hunt with the family!\n\n6. Wander Around Your Neighborhood and Reconnect with Your Roots: Take a stroll with your parents around the local haunts they used to frequent or explore some undiscovered gems. Stop by the park where they used to have picnics, the corner cafe where they shared their first cup of coffee, or the street where they met. Use this time to create new memories together as a family."

MAA is one of just eight REITs that are A- rated or better. Also 100% of their debt is fixed and although the company has about 8% of total debt ($350-400 Million) maturing each year, the increase in interest expense is going to be quite gradual. The REIT is also amongst the least leverage with a net debt to EBITDA of 3.5x, compared to the average of peers (AVB, CPT, EQR, ESS, and UDR) of 4.9x.\n\nOn top of this, the company pays a reliable dividend which has a long history of growth. The yield currently stands at 3.7%. And sure, I know that’s below treasury yields, but in my opinion investing in MAA at this time is strictly better than treasuries. This is because of capital appreciation and long-term inflation protection which treasuries simply don’t have. Moreover, if one invests in 2-year treasuries, what happens in two years when he needs to re-allocate his money? It could very well happen, that rates have dropped by them and asset prices have moved significantly higher, leaving the investor with a bitter taste. So once again, the yield is lowish, but it’s likely to continue to grow and very unlikely to get cut, given the history and a low payout ratio of just 61%.\n\nWith everything I’ve shown you, you shouldn’t expect MAA to be cheap. Sure enough, it trades at 17x FFO which is in line with the historical average and on par with AVB which holds properties of similar quality in less popular legacy markets. Though I don’t think you can count on the market re-rating the stock to 20x anytime soon, with strong underlying revenue growth of 7% this year and 4-5% beyond that, you should easily make 8-10% per year, compounded for a very long time. That’s in line with the S&P 500 returns, but double the dividend and arguably a similar risk profile so it might be a good pick for some income oriented investors. That’s why I rate MAA as a BUY here."

In the beginning, he is an effeminate and uncertain young man, easily taken in and manipulated by the Count. As his character develops and he becomes more violent and assertive, it would be interesting to discuss how violence from the Count is considered barbaric, whereas violence from Harker is presented as righteous.\n\n• Mina Harker: Mina changes dramatically throughout the story. She is a constant companion to Johnathan, from his rescue in Budapest to the fateful carriage-top battle at the end of the novel. Mina's character could be examined in the light of how she is closer and further away emotionally from Johnathan at different times in the book and how this reflects Victorian discomfort with foreigners and infidelity.\n\n• Quincy P Morris: Quincy is an interesting character as he says little but does much. Quincy is the 'good' equivalent of the Count - a violent and romantic foreigner that tempts Lucy. As his character is taciturn throughout much of the novel, at first glance, he develops little - but consider the parallels between the three foreigners in the novel. Also, consider how his death at the end of the novel is in tandem with the Counts. Is it accidental that both non-English perish?\n\nI hope that helps!

"value": "Here’s Why Your Vehicle is on Strike \n\nDoesn't it always ruin your mood when your car just wouldn't start after you last parked it? Here are some common reasons why this could be happening:\n\n1. Alternator Troubles: If you hear a clicking noise instead of a roar, your alternator could be out of commission. The alternator is what charges your battery and powers your car's electrical system. If it's bad, your battery won't maintain a charge, causing your car to stall. \n\n2. Ignition Apocalypse: Are you turning the key, but getting no response? Your ignition switch may be the culprit. It's responsible for supplying power to your car's electrical system when you turn the key. If it's not working properly, your car won't start. \n\n3. Battery Blues: If you’re using four years old and never replaced it or you left your headlights on, you might find yourself with a dead battery. A dead battery won't give enough power to crank the engine, rendering your car useless. When it’s new, parking your car for like two weeks in a go can also kill the battery.\n\n4. Timing Belt Issues: The timing belt regulates the movement of valves and pistons in your engine. If it breaks, it can ruin your engine and leave your car unable to start. Keep track of your car's manufacturer recommendations for when to change your timing belt to avoid this issue.\n\n5. Damaged Distributor Cap: The engine's distributor cap is responsible for sending electricity from the ignition coils to the spark plugs. When the cap fails, the spark doesn't reach the right place, and the engine fails to start.\n\n6. Trapped Steering Lock: If the steering wheel is locked due to incorrect usage, the ignition won't turn on, and the car won't start. It could also lead to a broken key or ignition barrel.\n\n7. Sluggish Spark Plugs: Worn, fouled, or corroded spark plugs can lead to poor combustion, affecting engine performance. When they struggle to ignite the air-fuel mixture, the engine might refuse to start at all.\n\n8. Stubborn Starter Motor: A malfunctioning starter motor can make clicking noises or have no response when you try to turn the key. The damage could be due to a dead battery, corroded wires, or a worn-out armature."

Two big men, both who worked with lumber for the village, seemed to lose their sense of reason and civility, as they both stood up and started accusing each other of something. At first, they were mostly ignored, as people were known to get a bit rambunctious around this time. But then one of the men slammed his fist right down the table, splitting it in two. Everyone stopped to stare at the arguing men, and even the bard stopped his tune as all eyes were clearly on these two. The shouts started to get louder, although nobody had a clue what had gotten them so upset in the first place.\n\nJust then, the bard recalled a song his mother played for him as a child, that always brought calm to his heart. And so, he started to strum a new tune, one that filled him with a sense of nostalgia, and that started to draw the attention of the tavern goers once more. The shouting men didn't respond at first, but after a few seconds their shouts stopped, and they looked over at the bard as he played a beautiful, almost otherworldly melody. The anger drains from their faces, replaced by tears that start forming in their eyes, and they sat down in their chairs, enthralled by the melody. Finally, the bard finished his song, and the whole tavern, including the once-angry men, applauded the performance. The bard gave a bow, the men looked over at each other and forgave each other with a handshake, and peace returned to the tavern once more."

The resistance causes the element’s temperature to rise and emit heat, which is then transferred to the heater’s core before being sent to the casing of the heater. The casing holds onto the heat and transfers it to its surroundings. \n\nReasons to switch to an electric heater:\n1. Electric heaters are highly energy efficient compared to other popular electric heating methods.\n2. Many electric heaters are programmable, allowing you to maintain the right temperature in your home throughout the day."

Orange It Up: Who says you need a costume to rock some holiday-themed colors? Encourage your little one to incorporate some orange into their outfit – it works on everything from a bright sweater to some spooky socks. It’s an easy (and affordable) Halloween look.\n\n3. Jewelry-making 101: Bond with your child while making a statement necklace or bracelet that screams Halloween. Gather some spooky charms or beads and string them onto elastic or wire. You can spend some quality time together while also getting festive!\n\n4. Bold Moves: Your little one doesn't need a mask or full-face paint to make a statement. A bold lip or dramatic eyeliner can be just as eye-catching! Have fun experimenting with different shades and patterns – from spiderweb-inspired liners to glittery lips – for a Halloween-inspired beauty look.\n\n5. Don't Let Your Nails Feel Left Out: Halloween isn't just about costumes, it's also about spooky nails! Use nail polish to create your creepy designs, from spider webs to monster claws, and have a mini nail salon day with your kids.\n\n6. Embrace the Pumpkin Spice: Who needs a fancy costume when you can rock a pumpkin tee? Grab some plain t-shirts from a local craft store and let your kids decorate them with paint, markers, or even glitter. It can be as simple or as elaborate as they want, and will still be ready for some Halloween fun!"

I wanted to swing for the fences, to go for the glory of a home run... but I knew the chances of that were slim. I've hit a few of them, but I was by no means a big power threat. I had made my way onto this team by competing every at-bat, hustling on every ball in play, and doing whatever I could do to help my team win. And I needed to stay true to that now with the game on the line. I flipped my bat, tapping the knob to the ground and dropping the donut. I took one more big hack before making my way to the batter's box.\n\nI stepped up to the plate and performed my ritual. Tap each side of the plate and then tap once in the middle. I loaded the bat to my shoulder and got set for the pitch. The pitcher smirked at me before starting his delivery. He threw a fastball that looked like it was headed straight for my head as I jumped out of the way. Ball one. But that was part of his plan. He wanted to back me off the plate. I wouldn't give him the satisfaction. I crept back up to the plate, inching closer this time. He wound up and delivered again, again coming inside. I turned away from the pitch before it reached me, instincts screaming at me to jump away.\n\n\"Strike one!\" yelled the umpire. He'd caught the inside corner, and I had jumped away like a coward. Never again. I crept in toward the plate again, crowding it this time. Daring him to throw it inside again."

Pull your car about 2 feet next to the car in front of your desired parking spot, stopping when your rear bumper is aligned with its rear bumper.\n3. Looking out for any suspicious beaver tails and fedoras, shift into reverse and start turning your wheel to the left as you back up. Once the back of your seat is even with the rear bumper of the vehicle beside you, turn your steering wheel quickly and evenly towards the spot until your vehicle is at a 45-degree angle as it enters the spot. Be sure to look over your shoulder as you back up to make sure there's nothing in your blind spot. Perfect Roger, of course, can skip this step because he has no blind spots.\n4. Once your rear tire is about 18 inches from the curb and your front bumper is next to the rear bumper of the vehicle in front, start turning your steering wheel to the right to straighten the car up while still reversing. \n5. Once you're fully in the space, you'll likely have to center your vehicle in the space between the spots in front of you and behind you by moving your car slowly and carefully backward or forwards. Be careful not to scrape the other cars. Also, watch out for Perry the Platypus.\n\nCongratulations, by following these steps you have successfully parallel parked!

},

"category": null,
"from": "gpt",
"value": "Here are a few practices used by Instagram influencers and business owners to attract and engage with their followers. \n\n1. Create an Effective Bio - One of the first things you should do to attract more followers on Instagram is to create an effective bio. You have a limited amount of characters to work with and one URL, so you need to make each word count. It may seem obvious that you should put your website's URL on your bio, however, if you do you will not have the opportunity to engage as much with your followers. Instead, it is better to use this link to direct people to a landing page that has a list of links to offer. By doing this, you can direct your followers to an endless number of links simply by pointing them to your bio. \n\n2. Use Organic Tactics to Enhance Brand Awareness - Growth hacking is a term that is used by many digital marketing experts. It is the process of trying out various online marketing strategies to find out which tactics work the best. While there are many applications and programs out there that are designed to help you boost your follower count fast, you may not always end up with followers who are genuinely interested in your brand or what your company has to offer. The best way to make sure your follower count grows is by using organic tactics. By choosing the right hashtags and keywords to add to your profile and your captions, you will guarantee your followers are there because they want to be and are interested in what you are selling. \n\n3. Create a list of Hashtags that Work - Hashtags are the keywords for your Instagram posts, and they play an important part in helping you increase traffic to your account. Create a list of hashtags related to your brand and keep them in a place where they are easily accessible. You can store them in your phone's notepad app, and you will be able to quickly cut and paste all your hashtags at once into your posts instead of having to type them in manually. \n\n4. Use Story Highlights - Story highlights on Instagram make it easy to save the best stories you have created and showcase them on your profile for your followers to view anytime. This is a great feature when you want to add more details to your profile page but you aren't able to due to limitations on character count. \n\n5. Make Each Caption a Mini-blog - Your captions are very valuable, and it's a good idea to plan and create intriguing captions that will get the attention of your target audience. Some customers may like a long caption that gives them more details about your company. Others may prefer to read a shorter post that features videos or graphics. Over time, you will eventually learn which option works best for your audience. \n\n6. Add a CTA To Your Posts - When you make an Instagram post, you want to include a call to action. There are many ways you can do this, and a CTA doesn't always have to be a sales push. You can ask your followers to like the photo, tag a friend who may be interested, or ask them to leave a comment letting you know what improvements they would like to see in your products. \n\n7. Take Advantage of Live Chat or Live Streaming - Sharing fun live-stream videos focused on your brand's products is an excellent way to get the word out to your target audience. Your followers can choose to get a notification whenever you go live, and they can also ask questions during your live stream. It's like an interactive infomercial that allows you to reach out to those who are interested in the products or services you have to offer."

I have given names to many now familiar aspects of myself, such as \"The Hungry Survivor,\" \"Mr. Achiever,\" \"Attila the Hun,\" \"Baby Jack,\" \"Fear of the Dark,\" \"The Impatient Lover.\" In this way, the repeated patterns of fear, sorrow, impatience, or loneliness become more familiar, and I listen to their stories in a friendlier and openhearted way. \"Hello, nice to see you again! What do you have to tell me today?\"\n\nHowever, this is not enough. Suppose we encounter a repeated story about the divorce of our parents. It talks over and over about which children go to keep which possessions, and who said what to whom. Such a story can play many times. As it does, we must expand our field of attention: How does this thought feel in our body? Oh, there is a tightness in the diaphragm and the chest. We can name this, \"tightness, tightness,\" and stay meticulously attentive for some time. As we do, it may open to other sensations, and many new images and feelings will be released. In this way, we can first begin to release the physical contractions and bodily fear that we have held. Then we can expand the attention further to new feelings. What feelings arise along with this thought pattern and this tightness? At first they may be half hidden or unconscious, but if we sense carefully, the feelings will begin to show themselves. The tightness in the chest will become sadness, and the sadness may become grief. As we finally begin to grieve, the pattern will release. \n\nIn a similar way, when we encounter a repeated physical pain or difficult mood, we can expand awareness to the level of thoughts, the story or belief that comes along with it. With careful attention, we may find a subtle belief about ourselves that perpetuates the pain or mood, perhaps a story about our unworthiness, such as \"I'll always be this way.\" When we become aware of the story or belief, and see it as just that, often the pattern is released. \n\nRepeated thoughts and stories are almost always fueled by an unacknowledged emotion or feeling underneath. These unsensed feelings are part of what brings the thought back time and again. Future planning is usually fueled by anxiety. Remembering of the past is often fueled by regret, or guilt, or grief. Many fantasies arise as a response to pain or emptiness. The task in meditation is to drop below the level of the repeated recorded message, to sense and feel the energy that brings it up. When we can do this, and truly come to terms with the feeling, the thought will no longer need to arise, and the pattern will naturally fade away."

The painting was titled “What I Thought I Wanted” and lacked an artist’s signature, but the gallery owner knew who the abstract colored canvas belonged to—the art was created by a child a long time ago.\n\nThe child was without its mother and in an area it was not familiar with. It had only its book bag with it, although it had not attended a school that day. While it may have seemed to happen abruptly and without notice, the child had provided hints for some time—only, it was now that the child’s intentions of running away became obvious enough for anyone to notice. Without much of a plan, the child had no real goals set out except for one: leaving home.\n\nIt was already less than ideal weather when the child left the night before, but now the rain was beginning to fall with the sinking sun. Alone, and on the side of the road, the child sat on the curb and laid the book bag at its side. The sprinkling rain turned to a heavy downpour, sending the child beneath a nearby awning. Finding a moment of peace, the child realized their book bag was left alone and went to retrieve the soaked pack. Under the temporary shelter, the child regretted everything and all it wished for was to be back home when, suddenly, a car wheeled into the curb where the child stood and flung the door wide open.\n\nThe car was driven by the child’s mother who had been searching for nearly twenty-four hours straight on zero sleep, looking for her child. Jumping into the car and apologizing, the child checked the contents of its bag to assess the rain’s damage. Within, the wet paint containers had leaked out onto the only canvas the child brought with it. The colors bled together."

Soon thereafter, he was celebrated for something that made him different.\n\nHowever, Tio loved his new attention so much that he became arrogant! What was once a heroic tiger had turned into a vain creature. Tio even became mean to the tigers with shorter tails. He had completely changed.\n\nOne day, an elderly monkey visited Tio to remind him of his previous good deed and told him that appearances aren’t everything––Tio was once a nice tiger, and now he was pompous. Throughout a sleepless night, Tio thought about what the monkey said and decided to change his ways, turning back into the nice tiger he once was while still using his long tail to help those in need."

"value": "Turn the facts in these paragraphs into a series of questions and answers.\n\nIt’s been a while since I wrote an article on a residential REIT. In my previous articles, I’ve tried to articulate my stance towards legacy vs sunbelt markets, concluding that I don’t see either as significantly positioned. While legacy markets will see lower demand, this will be counter-balanced by lower supply. Sunbelt markets on the other hand, will see some of the highest levels of supply ever, but this will be offset by an influx of people and jobs. For my detailed outlook on the Sunbelt, check out my article on BSR REIT (OTCPK:BSRTF). Today I want to cover Mid-America Apartment Communities (NYSE:MAA) which is a high-quality REIT, regarded by many as the safest one to invest into right now.\n\nWhy do so many investors like it? It’s quite simple. Its geographical presence is heavily focused on growing markets in the Sunbelt, with their largest markets being Atlanta (13%), Dallas (10%), and Tampa (7%). This could also be considered the biggest risk as the supply is really high and demand might slow down in the future but I personally don't see it as a threat since the demand seems to be keeping up so far. The REIT owns high quality buildings as 92% of the portfolio is classified as A- or better. This corresponds with the fact that they tend to focus on higher income individuals with average rents amongst the highest of any residential REITs.\n\nLast year, as well as at the start of 2023, has been great for MAA as they managed to retain high occupancy of 95.5% and their rents increased by 13.5% fueled by inflation. Management is expecting these positive trends to continue in all of 2023, forecasting 6.25% revenue growth on the whole portfolio and a matching NOI growth. Occupancy is expected to tick up slightly to 95.8% at midpoint. That’s a really positive outlook at a time when the share price, as we’ll see shortly, is very low. The point I want to make clear is that MAA has grown their cash-flows by double digits last year, and is on its way to continue growing, though at a slower pace, also this year. Per share, 2023 FFO is expected at $9.11 at midpoint which would represent a 7% YoY growth."

Additionally, it boasts a portfolio of high-quality buildings, with 92% classified as A- or better.\n\nQ: How did MAA perform last year and what's the expectation for 2023?\nA: MAA performed well, maintaining a high occupancy of 95.5% and increasing rents by 13.5% due to inflation. For 2023, management forecasts 6.25% revenue growth, a similar NOI growth, and a slight increase in occupancy to 95.8%.\n\nQ: What was MAA's cash-flow growth last year and what's the forecast for 2023?\nA: MAA saw double-digit cash-flow growth last year. In 2023, though growth is expected to slow down, they still expect an increase. The forecasted 2023 FFO per share is $9.11, representing 7% YoY growth."

This behavior isn't instinctive but learned over time and passed down through generations, a clear indication of a form of culture. It also demonstrates planning and foresight as Capuchins are known to select special types of stones and even transport them for future use. Capuchins also use tools for foraging in other contexts. They use sticks to dig into termite mounds or to reach invertebrates hidden in tree bark. Another interesting example is the use of branches or reeds to catch small mammals. They poke the stick into a hole where a small mammal might be hiding, causing the frightened creature to bolt and become an easy prey item."

Elmo would love to see a dinosaur zoo. Wouldn’t you?\n\nBut there was a problem before the zoo was finished. Some of the dinosaurs were dangerous and they hurt a worker. The zoo’s leaders needed some experts to make sure it would be a good zoo. So, they called some dinosaur experts along with a math expert for some reason. \n\nThe experts took a tour along with some kids. But a bad guy caused more problems. He wanted to steal stuff, and he turned off all the electricity so nobody would know what he was doing. When the power was out, the dinosaurs escaped! Another person got hurt by the T-rex dinosaur and the rest of them had to run away. They spent all day and night getting back to the zoo’s main building where the workers were. \n\nMeanwhile, the workers and one of the dino experts had a lot of trouble turning the electricity back on. Elmo usually just flips the light switch, but they had to go to a special building to do it. The first guy who tried got hurt by some smart and speedy dinosaurs called Raptors. Eventually, they turned the power on, but the dinosaurs were already loose.\n\nAfter the people who ran away finally walked back to the building, they had to hide from the raptors. The Raptors almost got them, but a T-rex showed up just in time and protected them! That gave them a chance to go to a helicopter and fly away from the island!\n\nIt sure is a scary story, but it’s also exciting, don’t you think? What would you do at a zoo full of dinosaurs? Well, that’s all the time Elmo has for today. See you next time!"

However, the idea that every single child deserves the best education possible is not as impossibly idealistic as it may sound. IDEA, a law that was passed in 2004, supports the idea that not only are children with disabilities capable of being educated, but they deserve a free and appropriate education that prepares them for further education, employment, and independent living. Because of this, I believe that children in special education should have as much opportunity as possible to participate in the general curriculum, while still having all of their individual needs met.

You're the best owner in the whole wide world, woof! Today's breakfast was the best too. You fed me my favorite treats because you said I had been so good this week. I know I'm just a puppy, but I'm trying really, really hard to remember all the things you teach me. Especially the commands like sit and stay. I've gotten good at those, wouldn't you say? My favorite part of the day is always when we take walks, though! That's my favorite word ever. Any time you say \"walk,\" I can't resist the urge to jump around and wag my tail! I really enjoy going outside and exploring. I always remember to stick close to you, but it's such a big wide world, and I want to explore it all! I also really like seeing other dogs too.

Soon he found life in the pasture very dull. All he could do to amuse himself was to talk to his dog or play on his shepherd's pipe.\n\n.\nOne day as he sat watching the Sheep and the quiet forest, and thinking what he would do should he see a Wolf, he thought of a plan to amuse himself.\n\nHis Master had told him to call for help should a Wolf attack the flock, and the Villagers would drive it away. So now, though he had not seen anything that even looked like a Wolf, he ran toward the village shouting at the top of his voice, \"Wolf! Wolf!\"\n\nAs he expected, the Villagers who heard the cry dropped their work and ran in great excitement to the pasture. But when they got there they found the Boy doubled up with laughter at the trick he had played on them.\n\nA few days later the Shepherd Boy again shouted, \"Wolf! Wolf!\" Again the Villagers ran to help him, only to be laughed at again.\n\nThen one evening as the sun was setting behind the forest and the shadows were creeping out over the pasture, a Wolf really did spring from the underbrush and fall upon the Sheep.\n\nIn terror the Boy ran toward the village shouting \"Wolf! Wolf!\" But though the Villagers heard the cry, they did not run to help him as they had before. \"He cannot fool us again,\" they said.\n\nThe Wolf killed a great many of the Boy's sheep and then slipped away into the forest."

When they arrived they saw the Boy laughing on the ground. It appeared that this was all a trick.\n\nA few days passed and the Villagers heard the Boy cry out again. \"Wolf! Wolf!\" the boy shouted.

A quantum physicist would say this is a “classical” implementation of computing. A “quantum” implementation of a computer manipulates quantum bits (qubits). Qubits can have a value of one, zero or both simultaneously. When the bit is simultaneously a one and a zero, the bit is said to be in a state of superposition. Moreover, the state of one qubit can influence another qubit, even if they are separated by great distance, in this case, the states are said to be entangled. \nSuperposition and entanglement are at the heart of quantum computing and provide capabilities that can speed the types of calculation required for cryptanalysis from years to minutes."

Blend these in along with the butter and brown sugar. This will be your wet bowl of ingredients. \n- Now this other room at the party is pretty quiet and people aren't chatting much. It's the dry bowl; flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. They are mingling together but they could use some more flavor. \n\n3. What should we do about that? You got it! Let's shake these two groups up and bring this party to the next level! Ok, now your dry and wet ingredients are getting along and getting better acquainted. Continue stirring these ingredients until it's a smooth mixture. \n4. Take an ice cream scoop or tablespoon and scoop your oatmeal cookie batter into your hand and roll it into balls. \n5. Spread them out 1 inch apart on your cookie sheet. (Personal space is important in social settings) \n6. Place that cookie sheet into the oven for about 15 minutes and watch the magic that is created. \nAfter they are brown and ready to come out, place them on a cooling rack to cool for about 10 minutes.

But the world was soon sure of one thing, the Covid-19 pandemic had begun.\n\nAs the virus spread like wildfire across the globe, fear and panic gripped the nations. As governments struggled to contain it and medical professionals worked tirelessly to save lives, the world started to shut down. Travel bans, strict quarantines, and non-essential work shutdowns occurred to try to slow the spread. Still, the virus raged on relentlessly, and the death tolls rose higher and higher with every passing day.\n\nAs the world teetered on the brink of total collapse, a multi-national team of hero scientists raced against time to develop a vaccine. But vaccine creation is slow and viruses mutate and evolve each time they are passed to a new host. The virus became more deadly with each passing day.\n\nAmidst all of the international chaos, other heroes emerged - groups of ordinary people banded together to fight back against the virus and bravely help those in need. These front-line workers risked everything to help those in need and battled the virus with all they had.\n\nSadly, the virus had other plans for our world. Governments scrambled to implement new restrictive measures to contain the virus. Soon, we'd learn viruses can't be truly contained.\n\nAs the pandemic continued to drag on, the toll on humanity felt unbearable. So many losses and permanent injuries occurred. But a glimmer of hope emerged from the dark reality. The scientists developed a vaccine, and the world collectively held its breath as it was distributed to those in need. Would it be enough? Or would the disease continue to mutate and evolve and require boosters or yearly shots? \n\nFind out in the new reality thriller - *Pandemic*!\n\nIn a world where nothing is certain, one thing is clear: the Covid-19 pandemic is a thriller like no other, a fight for survival against a silent enemy that threatens to destroy us all."
