He was very eager to wander and explore, his name even meant eager in Latin! He often escaped and led the staff on multi-day aardvark searches. He had become a bit of a celebrity for his antics. So, one day when Ardel stumbled upon the smallest of holes in the enclosure fencing, it was no surprise that away he went. \n\nBut Ardel wandered too far from home this time and found himself in a strange new place - Chicago! He had never seen anything like the tall buildings and bright lights before. As he wandered around the city, he felt new emotions - he was lost and scared. But then he saw something kind of familiar - a statue of a cow! It was the famous Cow on Parade statue and reminded him of home. This made him relax a bit and Ardel explored the city for hours. He came across many of the famous landmarks in Chicago, like a cool shiny ball, the Willis Tower, and the colorful Navy Pier. He even stopped by to visit some of the animals at the Lincoln Park Zoo. \n\nBut as the days passed, Ardel started to feel homesick. He missed his cozy burrow and the warm sun of The Wilds. He longed to return home.\n\nArdel grabbed a piece of delicious Chicago-style pizza (they didn't have termite flavored) and wandered over to the Shedd Aquarium to think. Watching the penguins frolic in the Oceanarium relaxed him. \n\nWhile he was there, a kind family noticed him and they took him in and gave him a warm place to stay. They wanted to get him home to Africa but called The Wilds Preserve for some advice. They found out that Ardel was from there! \n\nSo the kind family took Ardel back to The Wilds. He said goodbye and knew he'd never forget his adventure in Chicago. It was nice being surrounded by familiar sights and sounds of the preserve.\n\nAs he looked back on his adventure, he realized that though he had been lost and scared, he learned a valuable lesson - that kindness and friendship can be found all around us, even in those who are very different from us.\n\nThe end - for now. (Ardell heard a family talking about how nice Detroit was this time of year ....)", "role": "assistant" } ]

If there are specific guidelines in your area for the handling of lost or stray dogs, the relevant authorities, like animal control, should be able to inform you of them. \n2. Leave the dog with an animal shelter: If you are unable to take care of the dog for an extended period of time, it may be best to leave it at an animal shelter. It is best to research what resources, facilities, and services are available and willing in your area to accept the dog before you drop off the dog.\n3. Post on social media: Social media groups that are local to your area might be able to spread awareness of a lost dog, and thus help you return it to its owner. Note that it remains important to take care with posting personal or private information online.\n4. Ask neighbors in the area: It may be logical to surmise that the dog's owner is not too far from where you found the dog. Introducing yourself and the situation politely to neighbors in the area could result in a quick resolution.\n5. Put up a flyer or poster: If you are able to take care of the dog for an extended period of time, you could put up a flyer or poster alerting people to the dog. It is important to include a description of the dog as well as a photo in order to help the owner identify that it is indeed their dog.\n6.

[ { "content": "Make a comma-separated list of all jobs or occupations mentioned in the following article that are affected by products containing toxic chemicals.\nHere is the article to reference:\n\nConsumer products released more than 5,000 tons of chemicals in 2020 inside California homes and workplaces that are known to cause cancer, adversely affect sexual function and fertility in adults or harm developing fetuses, according to our newly published study.\n\nWe found that many household products like shampoos, body lotions, cleaners and mothballs release toxic volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, into indoor air. In addition, we identified toxic VOCs that are prevalent in products heavily used by workers on the job, such as cleaning fluids, adhesives, paint removers and nail polish. However, gaps in laws that govern ingredient disclosure mean that neither consumers nor workers generally know what is in the products they use.\n\nFor this study we analyzed data from the California Air Resources Board (CARB), which tracks VOCs released from consumer products in an effort to reduce smog. The agency periodically surveys companies that sell products in California, collecting information on concentrations of VOCs used in everything from hair spray to windshield wiper fluid.\n\nAnalysis of the world, from experts\nWe cross-referenced the most recent data with a list of chemicals identified as carcinogens or reproductive/developmental toxicants under California’s right-to-know law, Proposition 65. This measure, enacted in 1986, requires businesses to notify Californians about significant exposure to chemicals that are known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harms.\n\nWe found 33 toxic VOCs present in consumer products. Over 100 consumer products covered by the CARB contain VOCs listed under Prop 65.\n\nOf these, we identified 30 product types and 11 chemicals that we see as high priorities for either reformulation with safer alternatives or regulatory action because of the chemicals’ high toxicity and widespread use.\n\n\nWhy it matters\nOur study identifies consumer products containing carcinogens and reproductive and developmental toxicants that are widely used at home and in the workplace. Consumers have limited information about these products’ ingredients.\n\nWe also found that people are likely co-exposed to many hazardous chemicals together as mixtures through use of many different products, which often contain many chemicals of health concern. For example, janitors might use a combination of general cleaners, degreasers, detergents and other maintenance products. This could expose them to more than 20 different Prop 65-listed VOCs.\n\nSimilarly, people experience aggregate exposures to the same chemical from multiple sources. Methanol, which is listed under Prop 65 for developmental toxicity, was found in 58 product categories. Diethanolamine, a chemical frequently used in products like shampoos that are creamy or foamy, appeared in 40 different product categories. Canada and the European Union prohibit its use in cosmetics because it can react with other ingredients to form chemicals that may cause cancer.\n\nSome chemicals, such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and ethylene gylcol, are listed under Prop 65 because they are reproductive or developmental toxicants. Yet they appeared widely in goods such as personal care products, cleansers and art supplies that are routinely used by children or people who are pregnant.\n\nOur findings could help state and federal agencies strengthen chemical regulations. We identified five chemicals – cumene, 1,3-dichloropropene, diethanolamine, ethylene oxide and styrene – as high-priority targets for risk evaluation and management under the Toxic Substances Control Act by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.\n\nA hotel housekeeper stands next to her cart, piled with towels and bottled cleaning supplies.\nMany jobs, including custodian and hotel housekeeper, involve close-range exposure to multiple chemicals daily. Jeff Greenberg/Universal Images Group via Getty Images\nWhat still isn’t known\nOur analysis of the CARB data on volatile toxicants does not paint a complete picture. Many toxic chemicals, such as lead, PFAS and bisphenol A (BPA), don’t have to be reported to the Air Resources Board because they are not volatile, meaning that they don’t readily turn from liquid to gas at room temperature.\n\nIn addition, we were not able to identify specific products of concern because the agency aggregates data over whole categories of products.\n\nWhat other research is being done\nStudies have shown that women generally use more cosmetic, personal care and cleaning products than men, so they are likely to be more highly exposed to harmful chemicals in these categories. Further, women working in settings like nail salons may be exposed from products used both personally and professionally.\n\nResearch by members of our team has also shown that product use varies by race and ethnicity, partly due to racialized beauty standards. Policy interventions could be tailored to prioritize these potentially more-highly exposed groups.\n\nUltimately, a right-to-know law like Prop 65 can only go so far in addressing toxics in products. We’ve found in other research that some manufacturers do choose to reformulate their products to avoid Prop 65 chemicals, rather than having to warn customers about toxic ingredients.\n\nBut Prop 65 does not ban or restrict any chemicals, and there is no requirement for manufacturers to choose safer substitutes. We believe our new analysis points to the need for national action that ensures consumers and workers alike have safer products.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Janitors, custodians, hotel housekeepers, women working in nail salons.", "role": "assistant" } ]

The other giant, a chocolate brown one, bared its teeth briefly. Then, it gave a huffing, defeated sigh through its nose, laying its head down on its massive, clawed feet.

YouTube - If your business uses video marketing, then this is a great option to showcase that video content and also connect with current and potential customers. People like to see products being used, tutorials and news that is relevant to your business's niche, and highlights of happy customers. Updates on the business growth, new launches, and upcoming meet-and-greet opportunities might also be included.\n\n2. WhatsApp - Staying in communication with customers is a big part of a business's success and this platform is built for communication. People turn to this social media app for things like providing fast customer support, pushing out shipping updates, and even letting people know about sales and specials.\n\n3. Instagram - The popularity of this social media platform originally came due to amazing photo filters, which remain a key part of the site. If your business creates a product or performs a visually stunning service, you might just find that Instagram is the perfect place to showcase these images for the world to see.\n\n4. Twitter - Considered a microblogging site, this platform is largely popular for people who want to share or receive news and other real-time information. If your business is focused on trends in the financial, news, entertainment, or sports world, it may be a great fit. Alternatively, Twitter can be a resource to help your business with market research projects and insights.\n\n5. LinkedIn - When it comes to connecting with other businesses and members of the business community, this platform is generally preferred above all the rest. Use it for recruiting employees, connecting with potential partners, researching vendors, or networking with other professionals and business owners. It can also be a valuable resource for understanding how to develop strong business branding.\n\n6. Pinterest - People and businesses alike love this site because it is a place to be inspired and provides a way to organize things they find around the web into convenient boards where they can accumulate ideas and information. Pinterest is pretty image heavy, but it also includes videos and GIFs, and is a great platform for a business that wants to showcase its products, services, or anything innovative and interesting. \n\n7. TikTok - If short, catchy videos are something that your business creates well, this platform might be a good fit. It has gained major popularity with companies that want to target a younger audience of customers, as well as those who love to showcase their products creatively and in new ways.", "role": "assistant" } ]

When analyzing the story from the critical perspective of feminism, there is a clear discrepancy in how the woman and men are described and the roles they play within the story. Women are debased to their looks and manner, only being truly valued when they appeal to the needs and wants of the men around them. This is consistent with one of Stoker’s common concerns which is gender roles. He used this theme in several ways throughout the text, but it can be seen distinctly in the graveyard scene. Stoker uses a theme of the fear of the unknown to achieve a separation between the men and the women within the churchyard scene. By instructing Mina to stay behind, the characters physically separate themselves from the women in the story. Additionally, the fact that Lucy is a supernatural being rather than a human within that scene contributes to the idea that women are separate and lesser than whilst also being a compelling gothic convention. It is an obvious portrayal of dehumanization. This is also achieved through how they are speaking about Lucy in the tomb. It becomes clear that the value of the women in the story is confined to their usefulness and appeal to the men around them. They talk of how killing her will result in the return of her beauty and how she will revert back to Arthur’s Lucy and be at rest. This scene is poignant as it is a group of men deciding the fate of a woman based on the idea that she has strayed away from their ideal. Whilst this is understandable under the circumstances, within the scope of Stoker's concerns it adopts a larger significance and comes to represent the idea that women should be predictable and ownable. Uncontrolled women are a danger to the society that they exist within. So in a way, the obstruction of agency that the male characters inflict upon Lucy and Mina is representative of a larger fear of the unknown. ", "role": "assistant" } ]

Here are six ways to rev up your brain to feel more alert and attentive in the mornings when it’s hard to get out of bed! \n\n1. Take a cold shower with revitalizing scents to jolt your nervous system! \n\nMost people don’t want to get out of the warm embrace of their blankets, so a cold shower may take time to work up to. The cold water is an immediate wake-up call to your nervous system, but a lukewarm shower with revitalizing scents in shampoo and body wash can be just as effective. The best scents for alertness are spicy or have citrus notes, such as orange, cinnamon, rosemary, and peppermint. \n\n2. Avoid the allure of sugary cereals and other sweet breakfast foods. \n\nWhile it may be tempting to grab a doughnut and a Frappuccino on the way to work, resist the urge. Sweet breakfasts will increase your blood sugar, which can make you feel alert for a few hours before a hard crash of fatigue in the afternoon. \n\nStick to a hearty, healthy breakfast with protein and heart-healthy fats instead. Eggs and bacon are a classic, but you could also blend a smoothie, have a slice of avocado toast, or opt for rolled oats with berries and a glass of whole milk. \n\n3. Drink a glass of ice-cold water before your morning cup of coffee. \n\nMany people can’t wait to have their cup of coffee in the mornings but steer clear until you’ve awakened your mind and body with a cold glass of water. Dehydration is a common cause of fatigue, so a glass of cold water will refresh your nervous system to get you moving in the AM. \n\n4. Listen to something upbeat, like a comedic, engaging podcast or your favorite “get up and go” music. \n\nPutting yourself in a good “go-getter” mood will help you awaken your senses in the mornings. Upbeat music or laughter are both great ways to help you feel more alert and prepped to take on the day. \n\n5. Stretch and work out fatigue with a quick walk outdoors. \n\nNot only will a good stretch and regular exercise help you sleep better, but a quick stroll outdoors in the morning is a change of scenery that tells your body and mind that it’s time to wake up for the day. Slow stretches work out kinks that accumulate in muscles while asleep.\n\n6. Allow natural sunlight to permeate your surroundings in the mornings. \n\nThis one may make you groan with dread, but sunshine suppresses melatonin production within your body. Melatonin is the chemical that makes you sleepy, and that’s encouraged in dark environments. Standing in sunlight for a few minutes after you wake up tells your mind and body that the day is getting started. \n", "role": "assistant" } ]

Visual acuity depends on optical and neural factors. Optical factors of the eye influence the sharpness of an image on its retina. Neural factors include the health and functioning of the retina, of the neural pathways to the brain, and of the interpretative faculty of the brain.[1]\n\nThe most commonly referred-to visual acuity is distance acuity or far acuity (e.g., \"20/20 vision\"), which describes someone's ability to recognize small details at a far distance.

It has been marked by hyperinflation, escalating starvation,[6] disease, crime and mortality rates, resulting in massive emigration from the country.[7]\n\nThe situation is by far the worst economic crisis in Venezuela's history, and is also the worst facing a country in peacetime since the mid-20th century. The crisis is often considered to be more severe than that of the United States during the Great Depression, the 1985–1994 Brazilian economic crisis, or the 2008–2009 hyperinflation in Zimbabwe.[8] Other writers have also compared aspects of the crisis, such as unemployment and GDP contraction, to that of Bosnia and Herzegovina after the 1992–1995 Bosnian War, and those in Russia, Cuba and Albania following the collapse of the Eastern Bloc in 1989 and the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.[9][10]\n\nOn 2 June 2010, Chávez declared an \"economic war\" due to increasing shortages in Venezuela. The crisis intensified under the Maduro government, growing more severe as a result of low oil prices in early 2015,[11] and a drop in Venezuela's oil production from lack of maintenance and investment.[12] In January 2016, the opposition-led National Assembly declared a \"health humanitarian crisis\".[13] The government failed to cut spending in the face of falling oil revenues, and has dealt with the crisis by denying its existence[14] and violently repressing opposition.[12][15] Extrajudicial killings by the Venezuelan government became common, with the United Nations (UN) reporting 5,287 killings by the Special Action Forces in 2017, with at least another 1,569 killings recorded in the first six months of 2019, stating that some of the killings were \"done as a reprisal for [the victims'] participation in anti-government demonstrations.\"[16]", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The subject of this article can be categorized as History.

The process of grieving takes time – there may be even some instances when you feel that the grief will just not let up. The time immediately after the death of a loved one may be a busy one – there is the funeral and burial to be arranged, well-wishers and mourners to be looked after. However, you should give yourself and your family time to sit down and grieve. Acknowledge your feelings – don’t suppress them. \n\n- Grieve in your own way. People grieve in different ways. As long as you are not doing anything harmful to yourself or others, you can choose to grieve in your own way. Don’t allow anyone to set a timetable for your grief or tell you how to feel. In the same way, don’t push children to overcome their grief within a certain timetable. \n\n- Realize that it’s normal to be angry. Anger is a part of the process of grieving.
