New details of intimate texts exchanged between David Cameron and disgraced media boss Rebekah Brooks have been obtained by The Mail on Sunday. In one message, the Prime Minister thanks the former News International chief for letting him ride one of her family's horses, saying it was 'fast, unpredictable and hard to control but fun'. In another, a gushing Mrs Brooks tells Mr Cameron that she felt so emotional listening to his Tory conference speech she 'cried twice', adding: 'Will love "working together".' In close touch: Rebekah Brooks (left) pictured on the pone with her husband Charlie Brooks (right) The messages, with their horseplay tone, are part of a cache of texts and emails handed over to Lord Justice Leveson's inquiry into media ethics by Downing Street and Mrs Brooks. Only a very small number of the messages have so far been made public, leading to claims of a cover-up by No 10 and the inquiry. A furious Mr Cameron rejected a Commons demand by Labour MP Chris Bryant two weeks ago to disclose all the texts and emails exchanged with Mrs Brooks, the former chief executive of Rupert Murdoch's News International, which is at the centre of the phone hacking scandal. Her husband, racehorse trainer Charlie Brooks, is an Old Etonian chum of the Prime Minister. Mr Bryant suggested Mr Cameron's refusal was because the messages were 'too salacious and embarrassing for you'. He rounded on the Prime Minister: 'When the truth comes out, you won't be smiling.' When livid Mr Cameron refused to reply, Mr Bryant, himself a phone hacking victim, accused the Prime Minister of a 'hissy fit'. To add to the intrigue, Mr Bryant claims to have had contact with a No 10 'mole' involved in compiling Mr Cameron's texts and emails, whom the MP says has confirmed their 'salacious' nature. Cosy: Rebekah Brooks (right) was in close contact with the Prime Minister David Cameron . The Mail on Sunday obtained details of two embarrassing texts exchanged between Mr Cameron and Mrs Brooks, who awaits trial next year on charges of phone hacking and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. Both texts were sent in October 2009, shortly after Mrs Brooks left her job as editor of The Sun and became chief executive of News International, which owns the paper. In one, Mr Cameron writes: 'The horse CB [Charlie Brooks] put me on. Fast, unpredictable and hard to control but fun.' He signed off 'DC.' Embarrassing: The newly leaked messages sent by Rebekah Brooks and David Cameron . Admission: David Cameron, pictured at a party with Mrs Brooks in 2009, was embroiled in the controversy surrounding the Met Police lending a horse to the ex-News of the World editor . In another, sent after his speech to . the Tory conference, Mrs Brooks said: 'Brilliant speech. I cried twice. Will love “working together.” ' They . shed further light on the extraordinarily close relationship between Mr . Cameron and Mrs Brooks, both members of the so-called 'Chipping Norton . set' based around their Oxfordshire homes. Mrs . Brooks told the Leveson Inquiry earlier this year that Mr Cameron . signed some of his missives to her 'LOL' – until she told him it meant . 'Laugh Out Loud,' not 'Lots Of Love'. Horseplay: The texts were about a police horse, this one pictured on duty . The light-hearted tone of Mr Cameron's leaked text echoes the way he reportedly congratulated Mr Brooks when he started his relationship with Mrs Brooks, saying: 'You'd better not mess this one up, Charlie. It's the most important ride of your life.' Today's fresh disclosures are bound to lead to further Labour demands that all messages between the pair are made public so the true nature of their relationship can be seen. Mr Cameron and Mrs Brooks met 22 times in a six-year period, an average of once every three months. Mrs Brooks said that at the height of the phone hacking scandal he sent her a morale-boosting 'keep your head up' message, and expressed his regret he could not be more loyal to her in public. Mr Cameron has gone out of his way to play down his connection with 44-year-old Mrs Brooks. He was caught out when it was revealed he had ridden a retired police horse, Raisa, lent to Mrs Brooks by the Metropolitan Police. The disclosure came amid claims that News International paid backhanders to police while pressuring them not to investigate phone-hacking. The Prime Minister spent days trying to deny having ridden Raisa, but eventually admitted it and was forced to make a grovelling apology – in the middle of an EU summit – for trying to conceal the fact. It seems unlikely Mr Cameron was referring to Raisa in the newly leaked text, as the horse was 22 years old when lent to Mrs Brooks by the Metropolitan Police in 2008 and would have been put down otherwise. The animal is now dead. The 'horsegate' saga was not the first time Mr Cameron had tried to cover up his horse-riding exploits with the Brooks. The Mail on Sunday was told as far back as 2010 that he had been riding with Mr Brooks. The Prime Minister's then head of communications, Andy Coulson, issued a flat denial and this newspaper dropped the story. Mr Coulson, who had succeeded Mrs Brooks as editor of the News Of The World before being appointed by Mr Cameron, was forced to quit No 10 in January 2011 over the phone hacking scandal. He now faces criminal charges, too. It is believed the Leveson Inquiry also has unpublished texts and emails between Mr Cameron and Mr Coulson. Lord Justice Leveson ordered Mr Cameron and Mrs Brooks to send a vast amount of correspondence, including emails and texts, to the inquiry, but only a small number were published. 'I am so rooting for you tomorrow and not . just as a personal friend but because professionally we're definitely . in this together.' Mrs Brooks . The inquiry's lead QC, Robert Jay, said he would only use 'relevant' texts and emails. The new leaked texts are believed to have been supplied to the inquiry by Mrs Brooks. Among the texts disclosed during the inquiry was one sent by Mrs Brooks to Mr Cameron on the eve of his Tory conference speech in October 2009. In it, she gushed: 'I am so rooting for you tomorrow and not just as a personal friend but because professionally we're definitely in this together.' Referring to another issue, she said: 'Let's discuss over country supper soon.' It concluded, excruciatingly, 'Speech of your life? Yes he Cam!' Crucially, the first line of the text, said to be 'humorous', was not read out on the grounds it was 'not relevant'. The two texts published today by The Mail on Sunday were not revealed either. Mrs Brooks's 'I cried twice' text, was sent immediately after the speech, in which Mr Cameron spoke movingly of the death of his disabled son, Ivan. The Prime Minister's text about riding one of her husband's 'fast, uncontrollable' horses was in the same month. A No 10 spokesman said: 'The PM has always been happy to comply with whatever Lord Justice Leveson has asked of him.' An insider said: 'These new texts are of no great significance.' A spokesman for Lord Justice Leveson said: 'We have no comment.' A well-placed inquiry source added: 'Only communications deemed relevant will be published.' Mrs Brooks declined to comment. Summarize this article. Messages from a cache of texts and emails handed over to Leveson inquiry . Only a very small number of the messages have so far been made public . Mrs Brooks awaits trial next year on charges of phone hacking and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice .

Question: Donna worked 2 hours every morning walking dogs in her neighborhood for $10.00 an hour. 5 days a week, after school, she worked at a card shop for 2 hours and made $12.50 an hour. On the weekends, she usually made $10.00 an hour babysitting and was guaranteed 4 hours every Saturday from her neighbor. How much money did she make over 7 days?

Q: You’re a regular at Starbucks. This time you go, the lady writes "RUN" on your takeaway cup. Write a story. A: I blink at the cup. I blink at the Barrista. She smiles. "Why does it say 'run' on my coffee?" I ask. She smiles again. "Cardio" she says "it's always good to invest time in cardio fitness. You know where's a great place to get started? There's a park about five minutes walk from here, do the whole outside track and you've done a mile. There's shade, it's pretty flat...I recommend it!" "...thanks..." I say and walk away sipping my coffee. I'm basically too out of shape to run a mile, but I can always walk more. I make a mental note to check out the park. My coffee cup says "Read". I look at the Barrista. Same one as last time. She's a brunette, with long hair in a pony tail. "Any authors in particular?" I ask. She smiles. "Are you a reader?" I shake my head. There's never time. She shrugs. "Then start with a good newspaper. Cover to cover. You never know what you might turn up!" Her enthusiasm is infectious and I smile back. "Thanks," I say, sipping the coffee, "I'll do that." I stop in for coffee after my run, feeling pretty good, with the intention of sitting outside and leafing through a copy of The Washington Post. My iPod is still reading me *The Satanic Verses* by Salman Rushdie, which is a lot funnier than I was expecting, and I'm not really paying attention to my coffee order. The take out cup says "Watch" on it. I look up, pull the earbuds out of my ears and smile at the Barrista. Her eyes are vivid and green, one eyebrow arches gracefully at me. "What should I watch?" I ask. "How do you feel about German Expressionism?" she asks. "I don't," I say "but the way it influenced later directors, from Hitchcock to Burton, that's pretty cool." That earns me a dazzling smile and those eyes iridesce. Then she frowns. "Oh, darn it. I'm sorry, I've got your order wrong. Here, let me fix that for you." She reaches for the cup, takes it from my hand and for an electric moment our fingers touch. She fusses behind the counter, hands me a new cup, smiles again. I look at the cup. It says "Date?"

Q: How to fold polo shirts? A: Polo shirts are great because you can wear them almost anywhere. To keep your polo shirts looking good, make sure to fold them correctly. Start by placing them on a firm, flat surface. Fold in the sides and sleeves before bringing the bottom seam right below the collar. Store your polos by rolling them into tight bundles or stacking them on top of one another in a moth-free setting. ## Fold your polo in the traditional way 1. Lay the shirt on a flat surface. Find a flat, smooth surface, like a laundry table. Position the shirt on the middle of the surface with the button-side (front) facing down. Stretch out the sleeves to each side. Make sure that the edges of the shirt do not fall off the sides of the surface. Fully button up the shirt from top to bottom. Button up the cuffs as well. 2. Fold the sleeves back. Grab each sleeve and fold it to the middle of the back of the shirt (the button-free side that is currently facing upwards). Try to keep the each sleeve horizontal. This will make the cuffs overlap in the middle center of the shirt. As you adjust the sleeves, be careful not to pull the side seams of the shirt towards the back. You are just folding the sleeves in at this point, not the core of the shirt. If you have a short-sleeved polo, you will still fold the sleeves toward the middle of the back of the shirt. However, the sleeves will not overlap in the middle. 3. Smooth the shirt out with your hands. The key to folding any shirt, including polo style, is to run your hands over the fabric after every fold. This helps to smooth out the wrinkles and to ensure tight, secure folds. If you come upon a heavy wrinkle in the fabric, make minor adjustments until it disappears. 4. Fold in the sides of the shirt. With the front of the shirt still facing down, gently grasp one side of the shirt with both hands. Fold this side inwards until it touches the middle of the shirt’s back. Do the same thing with the other side. If you do this correctly, you should see a “V” at the top back of the shirt right below the collar. If you have a short-sleeved polo, this fold will help to keep your sleeves in place moving forward. Make sure to hold your sleeves in place as you complete this step or they may move around as you lift the sides to fold inwards. 5. Fold the shirt in half. Keep the button-side of the shirt facing down. Grasp the bottom edge of the polo shirt. Fold the edge upwards until the shirt is essentially at half of the full length. When you are finished you want the bottom edge of the shirt to rest right at the lower edge of the collar. 6. Do an extra fold depending on the shirt’s length. If your shirt is extra large or extra long, then a single bottom fold may not be enough. You may need to divide the length of the shirt into thirds or fourths, adding in 1 or 2 additional folds. 7. Flip and store. Grab your folded shirt and flip it over. The collar should now face upwards. This is a great way to store your polo shirts, as it keeps the collars and sleeves crisp. It’s even safe to stack multiple shirts on top of one another for storage, as the pressure will keep any wrinkles at bay. ## Roll your polo shirt 1. Save space by rolling. If you have a small closet or just a single drawer to use, then rolling is good option. Many people also prefer to roll all of their clothes when packing suitcases, as it makes it easy to select outfits quickly. The downside of rolling is that it can leave polo shirts a bit wrinkled. Address this problem by giving yourself some time to steam a shirt after unrolling it. 2. Fold the shirt in from the bottom. Lay your polo shirt on a flat surface with the buttons facing up. Grasp the bottom edge of the shirt and fold it upwards about 4 inches (10 cm). This will shorten the total length of the shirt and help you to create a tighter roll. 3. Fold in the sides. Grab one side of your polo shirt, place the sleeve facing outward, and fold the fabric inward toward the center. Do the same thing with the other side of the shirt. This means that the outer edges of your shirt will now meet in the center with overlapping sleeves. 4. Start rolling from the collar. Grab the collar in both of your hands and begin rolling downwards. Try to keep your hands firm on the fabric, so that the final roll is tight and secure. When you reach the bottom of the shirt, press lightly against the sides of the roll. The final roll should be around 6 inches (15 cm) in width. ## Clean your polo shirt before store 1. Wash the shirt according to the instructions. Locate the tag on your polo. It will probably be at the collar or on the inner side-seam. Read how to wash your polo and follow these directions exactly. For 100% cotton polos, this will usually mean washing them on a warm water setting. For mixed fabric blends, it is usually safer to go with a cold water setting. It’s also okay to hand wash most polos, as long as you stick with the same suggested water temperature. 2. Dry the shirt. You really want to avoid shrinking your polos, so make sure that you follow the drying instructions as well. If you machine dry your polos, use the lowest heat setting. It’s better, though, to hang your polo shirts up on a drying rack until they are fully dry. This will keep your shirts looking the best for the longest period of time. Be aware that drying your polos on a rack might make them look more wrinkly. However, this can be quickly fixed with a round of steaming or ironing. 3. Remove any wrinkles with steaming or ironing. Get out your ironing board and set your iron to a medium or low heat setting. Go over your polo with the iron, keeping it moving to prevent burning the fabric. Look at the tag for any additional instructions. Some polos need to be turned inside out before ironing. You can also hang up your polo and use a steam machine to work out any wrinkles. Pass the steamer wand close to, but not touching, the fabric until it smooths out. Polo shirts have a tendency to get particularly wrinkly around the collar, so pay additional attention to this area. Also, make sure to reinsert any collar stays after you are finished steaming or ironing your shirt.

Question: Paul went to a shop to buy some groceries. He bought some bread for $2, butter for $3, and juice for two times the price of the bread. He had $15 for his shopping. How much money did Paul have left? Answer: The price of the juice was 2 * 2 = $<<2*2=4>>4. So in total he paid for his shopping 2 + 3 + 4 = $<<2+3+4=9>>9. That means he had 15 - 9 = $<<15-9=6>>6 left. The answer is 6.

Daley Blind's agent says Manchester United are yet to launch a bid to sign his client. Blind is understood to be on Louis van Gaal's transfer shortlist, but the Manchester United manager has not made a move for the Ajax utility man, according to his representative Rob Jansen.

By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 09:30 EST, 31 January 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 11:22 EST, 31 January 2013 . Wants his due: 'For at least 25 years, she has been living a major lie,' says former assistant district attorney Steven Pagones, who filed court papers against Brawley for the $431,492 she still owes from a decade-old defamation judgment against her . A former New York prosecutor whose reputation was destroyed after Tawana Brawley falsely called him a 'gang-raping, kidnapping racist' has filed court papers seeking the nearly half a million dollars she owes him, it was revealed today. Steven Pagones, a former Dutchess County prosecutor, says Brawley still owes him . $431,492, including interest, after dragging his name through the mud in 1987 when he was one of three falsely accused by her of the notorious gang rape. On . November 28, 1987, the then-15-year-old was found in a trash bag, . dazed, smeared with feces with the word 'n****r' scrawled on her body. 'For at least 25 years, she has . been living a major lie,' Pagones said. 'To me, this has always been . about responsibility and accountability,' he said of the more than decade-old defamation judgment against her. She told police she had been abducted by . two white men and driven to the woods where they and four others . ravaged her for four days - one of which had a badge. The case was catapulted onto the . national stage by attorneys Alton H. Maddox and C. Vernon Mason, and the . then-little-known Rev Al Sharpton, who claimed she was raped 33 times. Brawley, who now goes by the name Tawana Gutierrez, is a single mom working as a nurse in . Virginia. She may now have as much as 25 percent of her wages garnished to repay Pagones, his lawyer, Garry Bolnick, told the New York Post. 'People criticize me for going after a hardworking single mother trying to support herself and child,' Pagones said. 'My argument has been she has not been held accountable.' He added that he may drop the suit if Brawley finally admits she made up the horrific accusations. Racial tensions: Rev Al Sharpton catapulted the case of Tawana Brawley, centre, onto the main stage and made him a household name across the country . 'If . she is not going to tell the truth, then it is about the money. That is . the only way to hold her accountable,” said Pagones, who is now . principal owner of a private investigations firm. The Brawley case was a national . scandal and had celebrities weighing in, with Bill Cosby posting a . $25,000 reward for information on the case. Don King promised $100,000 for Brawley’s education and boxer Mike Tyson gave her a $30,000 watch to ease her pain. Here to collect: Pagones says he would consider dropping his demand for money if Brawley admits she made up her story against him. 'If she is not going to tell the truth, then it is about the money. That is the only way to hold her accountable' Fishkill Police Officer Harry Crist Jr. was implicated after being found dead in his apartment a week after Brawley was discovered, and Pagones was also accused when he stepped in with an alibi for the 28-year-old. But in 1988 a grand jury found the whole shocking story was a hoax, and Brawley was never raped. Now 40 years old, The New York Post tracked her down working as a nurse in Virginia. 'I don't want to talk to anyone about that,' Brawley told the newspaper recently as she emerged from her apartment in Hopewell, Virginia, wearing scrubs. Historic case: Reverend Al Sharpton, pictured in 1988, picketed outside the hotel of New York governor Mario Cuomo . She lives what appears to be a relatively normal life in a neatly kept brick apartment complex with signs warning of video surveillance cameras. To avoid detection, Brawley goes by the aliases of Thompson and Gutierrez and has a young daughter, a neighbor told the Post. She reportedly works as a licensed practical nurse at The Laurels of Bon Air in Richmond. But her co-workers have been in the dark about the incredible story of brutality, which turned out to be false. 'Are you serious? We don't know her by that name. Isn't that a trip?' one staffer said, adding that the woman who they call Tawana Gutierrez was 'a good worker.' According to a neighbor, Brawley has lived in Hopewell - Virginia's most crime-laden town - for at least a year. 'Tawana V. Gutierrez' and 'Tawana V. Thompson' have held the same nursing license since 2006, state records show. The Virginia Board of Nursing confirmed issuing it to a 'Tawana Vacenia Thompson Gutierrez.' False claims: Brawley, pictured in 1988, claimed she was gang raped by a group of white men, one of whom had a badge . Rally: Tawana Brawley, left in 1988, of Wappinger Falls, N.Y., was the center of the legal controversy over her rape charges . Brawley maintains a PO box in Claremont, Va., under the name Gutierrez, according to The Post's sources. The grand jury panel, which heard from 180 witnesses over its seven-month investigation, found that Brawley made up the story to avoid being punished for staying out late and missing school. They found evidence she had ran away from home and was hiding out in her parents' former apartment after they got evicted. Many believed that Brawley feared her stepdad Ralph King's and needed an alibi for her absence. King spent seven years in prison in the 1970s for killing his first wife. Traces of the charcoal-like material used to scrawl the hateful word on her body were found under her fingernails, and she showed no signs of genital trauma or exposure, the jury found. One witness said Brawley was spotted climbing into the bin bag. We believe you: The case polarised new York City in the late 1980s . Lawsuit: Tawana Brawley, pictured in 1997, spoke at a rally in support of Alton Maddox who lost a lawsuit for defamation of character by Steven Pagones . 'It is probable that in the history of this state, never has a teenager turned the prosecutorial and judicial systems literally upside down with such false claims,' state Supreme Court Justice S. Barrett Hickman wrote at the time. Pagones has tried to forget the sorry affair but says he can't. 'It'll come up randomly. It'll come up when something happens with Sharpton,' he told The Post. Pagones won a defamation lawsuit against Sharpton, Brawley and her lawyers in 1998. Maddox was found liable for $97,000, Mason for $188,000, and Sharpton was ordered to pay $66,000. Brawley was ordered to pay $190,000 at 9 per cent annual interest but hasn't paid any of that bill. 'Through her silence, she's as guilty of libel as Maddox, Mason and Sharpton,' he told the newspaper. 'The only way to hold her accountable — at least at this stage — is financially.' Summarize this article. Steven Pagones, a former assistant district attorney, says Brawley 'never told the truth about this hoax or paid me a cent' Brawley, 40, has been found living modest life in Hopewell, Virginia . She is a nurse and has a young daughter but said 'I don't want to talk to anyone about that' when questioned about her former life . At 15, she claimed she was raped by a gang of white men, one of whom had a badge . Three men were accused in the 1987 attack . In 1988, a grand jury found the incredible story of brutality was all a hoax . Brawley was ordered to pay Pagones $190,000 more in 1998, and that figured has ballooned with interest .

Passage: In 1947, "toons" act out theatrical cartoon shorts as with live-action films; they regularly interact with real people and animals and reside in Toontown, an animated portion of Los Angeles. Private detective Eddie Valiant and his brother, Teddy, once worked closely with the toons on several famous cases, but after Teddy was killed by a toon, Eddie lapsed into alcoholism and vowed never to work for toons again. One day, R.K. Maroon, head of Maroon Cartoon Studios, is concerned about the recent poor acting performances of one of his biggest stars, Roger Rabbit. Maroon hires Valiant to investigate rumors about Roger's voluptuous toon wife Jessica being romantically involved with businessman and gadgets inventor, Marvin Acme, owner of both Acme Corporation and Toontown. After watching Jessica perform at the underground Ink & Paint Club, Valiant secretly takes photographs of her and Acme playing patty-cake in her dressing room, which he shows to Roger. Maroon suggests to Roger that he should leave Jessica, but a drunken Roger refuses and flees. The next morning, Acme is discovered dead at his factory with a safe dropped on his head, and evidence points to Roger being responsible. While investigating, Valiant meets Judge Doom, Toontown's Superior Court judge, who has created a substance capable of killing a toon: a toxic chemical known as "The Dip". Valiant runs into Roger's toon co-star, Baby Herman, who believes Roger is innocent and that Acme's missing will, which will give the toons ownership of Toontown, may be the key to his murder. He then finds Roger hiding in his office, who begs him to help exonerate him. Valiant reluctantly hides Roger in a local bar where his ex-girlfriend, Dolores, works. Later, Jessica approaches Valiant and says that Maroon had forced her to pose for the photographs so that he could blackmail Acme. Doom and his toon-weasel henchmen discover Roger, but he and Valiant escape with Benny, an anthropomorphic toon cab. They flee to a theater, where Valiant tells Roger about Teddy's death. As they leave with Dolores, Valiant sees a newsreel detailing the sale of Maroon Cartoons to Cloverleaf, a mysterious corporation that bought the city's trolley network shortly before Acme's murder. Valiant goes to the studio to confront Maroon, leaving Roger to guard outside, but Jessica knocks him out and puts him in the trunk. Maroon tells Valiant that he blackmailed Acme into selling his company so that he could then sell the studio, but is shot dead before he can explain the consequences of the missing will. Valiant spots Jessica fleeing the scene and, assuming she is the culprit, follows her into Toontown. Jessica reveals that Doom killed Acme and Maroon, and that the former had given her his will for safe-keeping, but she discovered that the will was blank. She and Valiant are then captured by Doom and the weasels. At the Acme factory, Doom reveals his plot to destroy Toontown with a giant machine loaded with Dip to build a freeway, the only way past Toontown since Cloverleaf (which Doom owns) has bought out Los Angeles' tram system. Roger unsuccessfully attempts to save Jessica, and the couple is tied onto a hook in front of the machine's hose. Valiant then performs a comedic vaudeville act, causing the weasels to die of laughter; Valiant kicks their leader, Smart Ass, into the machine's Dip vat. Valiant then fights Doom, who is eventually flattened by a steamroller, but survives. Eddie is shocked when Doom reveals that he is a toon in disguise—the same toon who killed Teddy. Valiant uses a toon mallet with a spring-loaded boxing glove, and fires it at a switch that causes the machine to empty its Dip onto Doom, killing him. The empty machine crashes through the wall into Toontown, where it is destroyed by a train. Numerous toons run in to regard Doom's remains, and Roger discovers that he inadvertently wrote his love letter for Jessica on Acme's will, which was written in disappearing-reappearing ink. Roger then shocks Valiant with a joy buzzer, and Valiant gives him a kiss, having regained his sense of humor. Valiant happily enters Toontown with Dolores, and Roger with Jessica, followed by the other toons. Question: How does Eddie defeat Doom? Answer: He uses a toon hammer and hits the button on the dip machine, dumping dip all over him.

Passage: Disillusioned knight Antonius Block (Max von Sydow) and his nihilistic squire Jöns (Gunnar Björnstrand) return after fighting in the Crusades and find Sweden being ravaged by the plague. On the beach immediately after their arrival, the knight encounters Death (Bengt Ekerot), personified as a pale, black-cowled figure resembling a monk. The knight, in the middle of a chess game he has been playing alone, challenges Death to a chess match, believing that he can forestall his demise as long as the game continues. Death agrees, and they start a new game. The other characters in the story, except for Jof in the end, do not see Death, and when the chess board comes out at various times in the story, they believe the knight is continuing his habit of playing alone. The knight with his squire heads for his castle. Along the way, they pass some actors, Jof (Nils Poppe) and his wife Mia (Bibi Andersson), with their infant son, Mikael, and their actor-manager, Skat (Erik Strandmark). Jof is also a juggler and has visions of Jesus and Mary, but Mia is skeptical of them. The knight and squire enter a church where a fresco of the Dance of Death is being painted. The squire draws a small figure representing himself. The knight goes to the confessional where he is joined by Death in the robe of a priest, to whom he admits that his life has been futile and without meaning, but that he wants to perform "one meaningful deed." Upon revealing the chess strategy that will save his life, the knight discovers that the priest is Death, who promises to remember the tactics. Leaving the church, the knight speaks to a young woman (Maud Hansson) who has been condemned to be burned at the stake for consorting with the devil. Shortly thereafter, the squire searches an abandoned village for water. He saves a servant girl (Gunnel Lindblom) from being raped by a man robbing a corpse. He recognizes the man as Raval (Bertil Anderberg), a theologian, who 10 years prior had convinced the knight to leave his wife and join a crusade to the Holy Land. The squire promises to brand the theologian on the face if they meet again. The servant girl joins the squire. The trio ride into town, where the actors met earlier are performing. The actor-manager introduces the other actors to the crowd, then is enticed by Lisa (Inga Gill), the blacksmith's wife, away for a tryst. They run off together. The actors performance is interrupted by the arrival of a procession of flagellants. At a public house, the juggler meets Raval who forces him to dance on the tables like a bear. The squire appears and, true to his word, slices the theologian's face. The knight enjoys a country picnic of milk and wild strawberries gathered by the wife of the juggler. The knight says: "I'll carry this memory between my hands as if it were bowl filled to the brim with fresh milk...And it will be an adequate sign – it will be enough for me." He invites the actors to his castle, where they will be safer from the plague. Along the way, they come across the actor-manager and the blacksmith's wife in the forest. Dissatisfied with him, she returns to her husband. After the others leave, the actor-manager climbs a tree for the night. Death cuts down the tree, informing the actor that his time is up. They pass the condemned young woman again. The knight asks the woman again to summon Satan, so he can ask him about God. The girl claims already to have done so, but the knight cannot see him, only her terror. He gives her herbs to take away her pain. The theologian reappears. Dying of the plague, he pleads for water. The servant girl attempts to bring him some, but the squire stops her. The juggler tells his wife that he can see the knight playing chess with Death, and decides to flee with his family while Death is preoccupied. After hearing Death state "No one escapes me" the knight knocks the chess pieces over, distracting Death while the family slips away. Death places the pieces back on the board, then wins the game on the next move. He announces that when they meet again, the knight's time—and that of all those traveling with him—will be up. Before departing, Death asks if the knight has accomplished his one "meaningful deed" yet; The Knight replies that he has. The knight is reunited with his wife, Karin (Inga Landgré), the sole occupant of his castle, all the servants having fled. The party shares one "last supper" before Death comes for them. The knight prays to God, "Have mercy on us, because we are small and frightened and ignorant." Meanwhile, the little family sits out a storm, which the juggler interprets to be "the Angel of Death and he's very big." The next morning, the juggler, with his second sight, sees the knight and his followers being led away over the hills in a solemn dance of death. Question: Raval forced the juggler to do what? Answer: Dance on the tabled like a bear.

Question: Jimmy is at the candy store and buys 2 candy bars for $.75 each. He then buys 4 lollipops that cost $.25 each. He spent 1/6 of the money he earned from shoveling snow. If he charges $1.5 per driveway, how many driveways did he shovel? Answer: Jimmy spent $1.5 on candy bars because 2 x .75 = <<2*.75=1.5>>1.5 He spent $1 on lollipops because 4 x .25 = <<4*.25=1>>1 He spent $2.5 in total because 1.5 + 1 = <<1.5+1=2.5>>2.5 He earned $15 shoveling driveways because 2.5 / (1/6) = <<2.5/(1/6)=15>>15 He shoveled 10 driveways because 15 / 1.5 = <<15/1.5=10>>10 The answer is 10.

By . Alex Gore . PUBLISHED: . 10:45 EST, 3 December 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 10:50 EST, 3 December 2012 . BBC staff have been complaining to bosses that they keep hurting their feet on new revolving doors at the Corporation's HQ. A string of complaints have been made by workers who keep injuring themselves as they go through the moving doors at the revamped Broadcasting House in London's West End. The complaints include one from BBC 'project technologist' Rob Pobjoy who says he hurts either his toes or heel depending on how fast he walks through the spinning entrance. Hazard: Staff have been complaining about the new revolving doors at the BBC's Broadcasting House HQ . Mr Pobjoy said: 'Most days on my way in and out of New Broadcasting House, I often find my heel being pushed by the revolving door. 'As far as I'm aware, I walk at a normal pace. Yet, it seems to me that if I attempt to keep pace, I seem to be going too fast, resulting in my toes kicking the door.' He added: 'It is my belief that the compartment is too small.' Another BBC worker, Ian Jolly, who works in the BBC's newsroom, said that despite 'going through doors all of his life', the revolving doors were 'over-engineered'. Writing in the BBC's internal Aerial magazine he said: 'I've been going through doors all my life. 'In fact, I'm pretty good at it, but I've clearly lost my touch now I'm working at Broadcasting House. 'I've been told my problem is that I 'go through the door too late'. 'Funny, as it's never been an issue before - could it be the BBC's over-engineered, electronic revolving doors that are at fault?' In a spin: Employees say they keep hitting their toes or heels on the electronic doors . One BBC worker, who asked not to be named, said: 'The revolving doors are a bit of a pain - they seem to have a mind of their own. 'However, as long as the Director General's job doesn't become a revolving door and we get a bit of stability after George [Entwistle] then everyone will be happy.' The revamped headquarters, which cost around £1bn to redesign, saw more than 6,000 staff from Audio and Music and News and Vision departments move in at the start of the year. Another employee said each compartment is 'just that little bit too small', and added: 'You have to time it perfectly to make sure you don’t come a cropper. 'When new members of staff come here they regularly comment on the doors being difficult to judge. After a while you learn to master the doors, but you shouldn’t have to really.' He said the problem appeared to be that staff 'misjudged' the speed of the doors, with some staff saying they go to fast and others saying they go to slow. He added: 'You hit your toes and if you try to hang back your heel takes the brunt.' The BBC declined to comment. Summarize this article. Employees at the revamped Broadcasting House in London have been hitting their toes and heels because compartments are 'too small'

Question: Brandon has been fired from half the businesses in town and has quit from a third of them. If there are 72 business in town, how many businesses can he still apply to? Answer: First divide the total number of businesses by 2 to find how many businesses Brandon hasn't been fired from: 72 businesses / 2 = <<72/2=36>>36 businesses Then divide the total number of businesses by 3 to find how many businesses Brandon quit from: 72 businesses / 3 = <<72/3=24>>24 businesses Then subtract that number from the number of businesses he hasn't been fired from to find the number of businesses where he can still apply: 36 businesses - 24 businesses = <<36-24=12>>12 businesses The answer is 12.

Question: Kimmie received $450 from her handmade crafts at the supermarket. Her friend Zahra received 1/3 less money when she sold the same amount of handmade crafts at Etsy. If both of them save half of their earnings on the same savings account, calculate the total amount of money in the joint savings account? Answer: Zahra received 1/3 * $450 = $<<1/3*450=150>>150 less money from the sale of her craft at Etsy. The total amount of money that Zahra sold her handmade crafts for is $450 - $150 = $<<450-150=300>>300 Kimmie saved 1/2 * $450 = $<<1/2*450=225>>225 of her earnings into the joint savings account. Zahra saved 1/2 * $300 = $<<1/2*300=150>>150 of her earnings into the joint savings account. Together, they have $225 + $150 = $<<225+150=375>>375 in the savings account. The answer is 375.

Passage: The Wonderful Visit tells how an angel spends a little more than a week in southern England. He is at first mistaken for a bird because of his dazzling polychromatic plumage, for he is "neither the Angel of religious feeling nor the Angel of popular belief," but rather "the Angel of Italian art." As a result, he is hunted and shot in the wing by an amateur ornithologist, the Rev. K. Hilyer, the vicar of Siddermoton, and then taken in and cared for at the vicarage. The creature comes from "the Land of Dreams" (also the angel's term for our world), and while "charmingly affable," is "quite ignorant of the most elementary facts of civilisation." During his brief visit he grows increasingly dismayed by what he learns about the world in general and about life in Victorian England in particular. As he grows increasingly critical of local mores, he is eventually denounced as "a Socialist." The vicar, his host, meanwhile comes under attack by fellow clerics, neighbours, and even servants for harbouring a disreputable character (no one but the vicar believes he comes from another world, and people take to calling him "Mr. Angel"). The angel's one talent is his divine violin-playing, but he is discredited at a reception that Lady Hammergallow agrees to host when it is discovered that he cannot read music and confides to a sympathetic listener that he has taken an interest in the vicar's serving girl, Delia. Instead of healing, his wings begin to atrophy. The local physician, Dr. Crump, threatens to have him put in a prison or a madhouse. After the angel destroys some barbed wire on a local baronet's property, Sir John Gotch gives the vicar one week to send him away before he begins proceedings against him. The Rev. Mr. Hilyer is regretfully planning how he will take the angel to London and try to establish him there when two catastrophes abort the plan. First, the angel, who "had been breathing the poisonous air of this Struggle for Existence of ours for more than a week," beats Sir John Gotch with Gotch's own whip in a fury after the local landowner insolently orders him off his land. Distraught to think (mistakenly) that he has killed a man, he returns to the village to find the vicar's house in flames. Delia, the serving girl, has entered the burning building in an attempt to rescue the angel's violin: this extraordinary act comes as a revelation to the angel. "Then in a flash he saw it all, saw this grim little world of battle and cruelty, transfigured in a splendour that outshone the Angelic Land, suffused suddenly and insupportably glorious with the wonderful light of Love and Self-Sacrifice." The angel attempts to rescue Delia, someone seems to see "two figures with wings" flash up and vanish among the flames, and a strange music that "began and ended like the opening and shutting of a door" suggests that the angel has gone back to where he came from, accompanied by Delia. An epilogue reveals that "there is nothing beneath" the two white crosses in Siddermorton cemetery that bear the names of Thomas Angel and Delia Hardy, and that the vicar, who never recovered his aplomb after the angel's departure, died within a year of the fire. Question: Which places did Dr. Crump threaten to put the angel in? Answer: A madhouse or prison.

Passage: At a Manhattan teaching hospital, the life of Dr. Bock (George C. Scott), the Chief of Medicine, is in disarray: his wife has left him, his children don't talk to him, and his once-beloved teaching hospital is falling apart. The hospital is dealing with the sudden deaths of two doctors and a nurse. These are attributed to coincidental or unavoidable failures to provide accurate treatment. At the same time, administrators must deal with a protest against the hospital's annexation of an adjacent and decrepit apartment building. The annexation is to be used for a drug rehabilitation center; the building's current occupants demand that the hospital find them replacement housing before the building is demolished despite the building being condemned sometime before. As Dr. Bock complains of impotence and has thoughts of suicide, he falls for Barbara Drummond (Diana Rigg), a patient's daughter who came with her father from Mexico for his treatment. This temporarily gives Dr. Bock something to live for after Barbara confronts him. The deaths are discovered to have been initiated by Barbara's father (Barnard Hughes), as retribution for the "inhumanity" of modern medical treatment. Drummond's victims would have been saved if they'd received prompt, appropriate treatment—but they didn't. Dr. Bock and Barbara use a final, accidental death of a doctor at the hospital to cover Drummond's tracks. Barbara then takes her father back to JFK airport to escape back to Mexico, leaving Dr. Bock at his insistence to try and organize the chaotic Hospital. Question: What is Dr. Bock's job titile? Answer: He is the Chief of Medicine.

A man, a teenager, and a woman are siblings who inherited their father's farm when he died testate, leaving his farm to his children as joint tenants. Soon after the father's death, the teenager died and the woman moved to another part of the country. The man has not heard from the woman in many years.

Question: Alicia has 20 gumballs. Pedro has that many gumballs plus an additional number of gumballs equal to three times the number Alicia has. They put their gumballs in a bowl, and later Pedro takes out 40% of the gumballs to eat. How many gumballs are remaining in the bowl? Answer: If Pedro has three times more gumballs than Alicia, he has 3 * 20 gumballs = <<3*20=60>>60 gumballs more In total, Pedro has 20 gumballs + 60 gumballs = <<20+60=80>>80 gumballs When they put their gumballs together, the total number of gumballs in the bowl becomes 20 gumballs + 80 gumballs = <<20+80=100>>100 gumballs Pedro takes out 40% of the gumballs which is 40/100 * 100 gumballs = <<40/100*100=40>>40 gumballs. The number of gumballs remaining is 100 gumballs - 40 gumballs = <<100-40=60>>60 gumballs The answer is 60.

Lollipop ladies are being fired by councils to pay for ’Stasi surveillance’ CCTV cameras, the government has claimed. Town halls are accused of buying ’spy cars’ as an excuse to generate fines from parents on the school run on an ’industrial scale’. Local government minister Brandon Lewis warned public trust in CCTV for crime fighting is being undermined by councils using it to generate cash. We're watching you: CCTV cars were legalised in 2004 and there are now more than 100 in use across Britain. Fines worth at least £30 million were handed out last year - but almost half the people who appealed won . Mr Lewis took particular issue with the claim from the Local Government Association the coalition’s move to ban CCTV parking cameras ’will put children at risk’. He said: ’This is a false and spurious claim. CCTV spy cars are a recent and modern innovation from legislation passed by the last Labour Government. ’They are just an excuse for councils to raise money from issuing parking fines on an industrial scale. ’They undermine natural justice, as car owners receive the fine weeks later in the post making it extremely hard to challenge on appeal.’ He insisted the changes would not stop a traffic warden or police officer issuing a penalty notice in the case of genuinely dangerous parking. With more than 100 specially adapted cars across Britain, 'mobile CCTV' has become the bane of many motorists' lives. The . technology was legalised under Labour in 2004, allowing councils to . break from the tradition of always using traffic wardens. Since then more councils have . brought in the technology every year - but while a traffic warden can . be reasoned with, said critics, a machine cannot. High-profile 'victims' included one driver who pulled over to vomit and another whose windscreen had smashed. Drivers . who feel they have been wronged can take their cases to a Traffic . Penalty Tribunal, a network of independent adjudicators, or a parallel . system for London. Adjudicators . often criticise councils and have questioned their definition of the . 'difficult or sensitive' circumstances in which CCTV fines should be . given out. Richmond . Council, south west London, faced having to repay thousands of fines in . 2011 after campaigner Nigel Wise discovered its four cars had not been . properly registered. But in response to a parliament question he added: ’It is hard-pressed parents who get hit with the fines from such Stasi surveillance. ’Public confidence is strengthened in CCTV if it is used to tackle serious crime, not to raise money for town halls by penalising parents dropping off kids on the school run. ’In their rush to bankroll CCTV spy cameras for parking enforcement, it would appear from recent media reports that parts of local government have had no qualms about sacking lollipop men and women. ’Crossing patrols do a sterling job in protecting children from danger—but, unfortunately, unlike spy cars, they do not raise money for council coffers.’ Official figures councils which use CCTV cameras to enforce parking rules raise £49.35 per household each year, compared with £5.69 per household in council areas which do not have them. The Local Government Association has heavily criticised government plans to ban the use of CCTV cameras, with parking wardens only allowed to film if vehicles break the rules, . Peter Box, chairman of the LGA's Economy and Transport Board, said: 'Camera cars have been instrumental in keeping children from being hurt or killed on the way to school, and CCTV also plays an important role elsewhere in monitoring traffic flow and keeping cars moving. 'It is impossible for councils to regulate parking outside thousands of schools by using wardens alone. 'Camera cars are deployed in response to pleas by parents and teachers about cars being parked illegally and recklessly outside the school gates. 'CCTV cars are a highly visible deterrent for those breaking the law and councils will often send warnings to drivers of the consequences of their actions before issuing them with parking fines. ;Banning councils from acting on these community concerns and using CCTV outside schools will put children at risk and leave them and their parents to run the gauntlet of the school run without any protection.'

By . Sean Poulter . Last updated at 5:11 PM on 9th November 2011 . VAT change: George Osborne's decision to close the tax loophole will raise around £100m a year . A sales tax loophole used by millions to buy cheap CDs, DVDs, computer games and even contact lenses from the Channel Islands is to be closed. Chancellor George Osborne has decided on a change to the VAT regime in a move that will cost shoppers at least £100million a year. Currently, low value items costing less than £15 can be imported to the UK and from locations outside the EU - such as the Channel Islands - without carrying VAT. This has allowed large firms like Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s and Boots, to set up warehouse operations in the Channel Islands to sell cheaper - VAT-free products to UK consumers. Amazon and other fast-growing internet specialists, such as Play.com and TheHut.com, use the same ploy. The decision to close the VAT loophole suggests these firms will now add the sales tax to all their products shipped in from the Channel Islands. The change, which comes into effect in April next year, could add £2 to the price of a blockbuster DVD, such as the Lion King, taking it up to £12. A chart CD, such as Adele’s 21, could go up by £1.60 to around £9.60. The VAT loophole has been a disaster for small independent chains and others for many years amid claims it has snatched sales from the high street. A spokesman for Tesco today vowed to keep prices low despite the duty rise. 'We always seek to be competitive on price and have no immediate plans to increase prices as a result of the change,' he said. St Peter Port on the Channel Island of Guernsey. The decision to close the VAT loophole suggests firms will now add the sales tax to all their products shipped in from the Channel Islands . 'We welcome this news and have been supportive of a level playing field for some time now.' Critics such as the Forum for Private . Business (FPB) claim it led to the closure of hundreds of stores and . associated job losses. The last Labour government rejected repeated calls to change the VAT rules, insisting it was not a loophole. However, the Chancellor criticised the system when in Opposition and is now in a position to do something about it. Conservative . Treasury Minister, David Gauke, described the move, which will bring in . an extra £100million in VAT to government coffers, as a victory for . small business and taxpayers. Large firms like Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's and Boots, to set up warehouse operations in the Channel Islands to sell cheaper - VAT-free products to UK consumers. Online retailer Amazon uses the same ploy . ‘These reforms will ensure that UK companies, especially small and medium sized enterprises, can compete on a level playing field with those larger companies with the resources to set up operations in the Channel Islands,’ he said. ‘We are also protecting a significant amount of tax revenue. By making these changes, we are striking the best possible balance between the costs of collecting small amounts of VAT and protecting the interests of UK taxpayers and businesses.’ Senior policy adviser at the FPB, Phil McCabe, said: ‘This is a victory for small, hard-pressed shops and internet traders on the mainland who have suffered for decades because of this anti-competitive tax loophole. ‘For too long large retailers have been able to undercut them by 20 per cent on the price of a wide range of goods imported VAT free via the Channel Islands and sold online.

Answer: There are 20 - 2 = <<20-2=18>>18 floors that are each 3 meters high. So the first 18 floors is 18 x 3 = <<18*3=54>>54 meters high. The last two floors are each 3 + 0.5 = <<3+0.5=3.5>>3.5 meters high. So the total height of the last two floors is 3.5 x 2 = <<3.5*2=7>>7 meters. Therefore, the building is 54 + 7 = <<54+7=61>>61 meters high. The answer is 61.

New York (CNN) -- Two Mexican brothers have been extradited to the United States to join a third brother to face sex trafficking charges in New York as part of a complex collaborative effort to combat human trafficking, federal officials said Monday. Benito Lopez-Perez, 32, and Anastasio Romero-Perez, 39, were arraigned on a 25-count indictment Monday morning in Brooklyn Federal Court, the U.S. attorney and the Justice Department said in a news release. The extensive indictment is the product of the Bilateral Human Trafficking Enforcement Initiative, an in-depth partnership involving the Department of Justice, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations, the Urban Justice Center and many non-profit and non-governmental organizations in the United States and Mexico, the release said. "The indictment charges the defendants with sex trafficking, interstate prostitution, alien smuggling and money laundering offenses, involving victims as young as 14 and 15 years old," it said. On December 3, the third brother, Jose Gabino Barrientos-Perez, 51, was extradited from Mexico to face the same charges, officials said. U.S. Attorney Loretta E. Lynch also announced the extradition last month of Antonio Lira-Robles on the same charges. All the extraditions resulted from the comprehensive anti-trafficking program, which has so far resulted in the indictment of 52 defendants on sex trafficking charges and has "rescued over 100 victims, including 17 minors," the release said. "The sex trafficking of young girls and women is modern-day slavery we will do everything in our power to eradicate," Lynch said in a news conference Monday. She also announced the reuniting of a victim of sex trafficking with her child after a separation of more than 10 years. The mother was involved with the Carreto family sex trafficking ring, officials said. The ring operated between Mexico and United States from 1991 to 2004, the Justice Department said upon Carreto's sentencing in 2009. United States v. Carreto is considered to be "one of the first sex trafficking cases prosecuted by the United States Attorney's Office in Brooklyn," according to Monday's news release, "After substantial post-conviction investigation and international coordination, the child was located and reunited with the victim-mother." Sienna Baskin, co-director of the Sex Workers Project at the Urban Justice Center, called this "an example of people going above and beyond and being creative and thinking outside the box in order to make this happen. Now we need the lessons we learned in this case to be institutionalized." Baskin said she and others working as a part of the ad hoc task force realize that the fate of the victims is just as important as the fate of the traffickers. Under the initiative, "the United States and Mexico have collaborated to bring high-impact prosecutions under both U.S. and Mexican law to more effectively dismantle human trafficking networks operating across the U.S.-Mexico border," Monday's news release said. "The extraditions over the weekend followed by the arraignments today are a testament to our resolve to bring justice to those charged with forcing young women into prostitution," James T. Hayes Jr. is the special agent-in-charge of Homeland Security Investigations in New York. Summarize this article. The Perez brothers have been extradited to the United States . Other charges include interstate prostitution, alien smuggling and money laundering . The indictments are a result of the Bilateral Human Trafficking Enforcement Initiative .

(CNN) -- I believed we had learned lessons from the George Zimmerman case in how to better handle cases like the Michael Brown shooting. Zimmerman, you'll recall, was charged with shooting Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager in Sanford, Florida, in 2012. I was Zimmereman's lawyer. That case caught national attention for the shooting itself, but almost more for the way law enforcement was perceived to have mishandled it and for the racial animus it exposed over how young blacks are treated in the criminal justice system. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that all of the right people have learned all of the right lessons from that case. Now, as the days drag on in Ferguson, Missouri, it seems that some involved, particularly in the law enforcement hierarchy, are not handling the Michael Brown case better than the Zimmerman case. In fact, this time it's being handled worse. Some observations on Ferguson: . The social media response has been amazing. An event these days -- whether it be the Michael Brown shooting, the Donald Sterling uproar, the questionable death of Kendrick Johnson in Georgia -- gains a life online via social media, keeping it in the forefront of our national conversation. Though there are down sides, one of social media's strong positives is that it allows for an open, quick and national discourse. With the crackdown on the press in Ferguson this week, it was citizens with cell phones who provided pictures and helped set the editorial agenda. The Ferguson Police Department has fallen far short of expectations. While we still don't know -- and likely won't for a while -- what exactly happened and why the officer fired those fatal shots, the way the Ferguson police department reacted was poor and made matters worse, not better. A sensitive response -- informed by an awareness that this shooting would lead to a powerful, communitywide reaction—would have acknowledged the trauma inflicted on the entire black community. While I still maintain that the integrity of the investigation is paramount (if charges are being considered, we must make sure that the witnesses were not tainted by leaked information or coached in their answers to the perceived events), the police mishandled the situation in important ways, and in ways that undermined or destroyed the black community's faith that this would be handled properly. Critics rip police tactics, use of military equipment . The name of the officer who shot Michael was finally released Friday. He is Officer Darren Wilson, a six-year veteran of the department. It was time to do this. At least now that point of frustration has ended. But the decision also to release the videotape of the previous robbery event in which Michael Brown was suspected was a further insult to the sensitivities that exist in this now cultural event. If it had to be done, it should have been well separated. We shouldn't forget that the law enforcement agencies involved in the investigation, from the Justice Department and the FBI to the St. Louis County Sherriff, had already had the officer's name, his background, his disciplinary record, his medical records--and are still gathering the other information necessary to begin drilling into who he was before this shooting and what happened to him during it. The coordinated interaction between these agencies is a good definition of transparency, not piecemeal distribution of snippets of information. The police chief's decision to come out with a statement early in the investigation defending his officer was a poor decision, as it polarized an already tense environment and was insensitive to Ferguson's African-American community. Missouri state troopers take over security in Ferguson . How the police reacted to the civil unrest is a mixed bag. While law enforcement agencies have both the right and the obligation to maintain civil order and peace, they must do so in a way that is sensitive to the issues that are being addressed in protests. I do not have a concern with an appropriate police presence, and I believe police should act to stop destruction of property or the use of the protest for personal gain or profit, such as looting stores. That said, nothing justifies use of an aggressive police presence without proper cause. There was no basis for a military-style response, even though the law enforcement could justify it by looking at their textbooks. This did not warrant a textbook response. This warranted -- demanded -- a response that carried the respect appropriate in such difficult times. We also now know that a lesser response, as has happened since estate police took over, worked to lessen tensions. 5 things to know about the Michael Brown shooting . At the very least, I sincerely hope that the police agencies involved maintained their own video log of events witnessed and reacted to by law enforcement. If those actions were necessary in response to threats or inappropriate actions from protesters, I would give the department deference. But they are going to have to justify tear gas and rubber bullets, and that will be tough to do in a situation as socially charged as this one. There will be and should be, a review of police activities in response to the shooting; not to place blame, but as a learning tool. We were dangerously close to a meltdown in Ferguson. We now look back at how Seminole County, Florida, handled the Zimmerman matter and must acknowledge they did a better job than Ferguson. The protesters, setting aside for a moment the looters and hooligans, have acted in a very appropriate and responsible way. Our country was built upon the concept of seeking appropriate redress of actions by our government. It is not only allowed and appropriate, but it is ingrained in our national fabric and the nation would be weaker without it. The people who take advantage of a situation that allows them to loot and steal -- which they continued doing early Saturday -- should face significant consequences. Not only have they committed individual crimes by their actions, but they have desecrated the very purpose of the respectful protesters and in doing so damaged the national perspective of the protest itself. Their actions distract attention from the important, underlying reasons for the protest and threaten to turn the process into a dangerous, counterproductive battle between themselves and the police presence. Looting, tensions dash tenuous peace in Ferguson's streets . The response Friday night and early Saturday by law enforcement was restrained; they deserve credit. Even more so, the protesters who tried to block the looters stand as testament to the true purpose of their involvement: peaceful pleas for change. The governor of Missouri should have taken stronger action and done so much sooner. While he may have hoped that this incident could be addressed properly at the local level, Gov. Jay Dixon should have realized that wasn't going to happen by the end of the first 24-hour period. At that point, having an elected official unconnected with the police department involved would have given the proper appearance of impartiality and would have put the strength of the entire state behind this event. I'm very glad that Dixon finally became involved in the process, and I believe his presentation to the church affirming the state's commitment was necessary. His promise to handle this matter to the end, in a transparent way, and to seek justice wherever that may lead, was the right position for the governor to take. (P.S.--Don't try to make jokes about how you look on camera when you're dealing with a national tragedy.) President Barack Obama should have a voice in the public reaction to this event, but he needs to be circumspect in his presentation. I have, in the past, expressed my chagrin that Obama injected himself into the Zimmerman matter -- not because he involved himself with a national tragedy, but because he took a side in a pending case where he should be very reluctant to do so. I appreciate his more inclusive and tempered response to this troubling shooting. Opinion: Obama, can't you see black anger in Ferguson? Traditional media have handled this case well. Across the board, media outlets have presented a number of well-balanced reviews of the relevant issues. The traditional media learned a good deal from the Zimmerman case: Reporting on the Michael Brown shooting has been much better founded in both the rules of evidence, the rules of the court and the statutes that deal with such issues as self-defense, "imminent fear of great bodily injury," and police procedures. The media have learned to understand the subject and the applicable statutes before commenting on the case. Full coverage on Ferguson shooting and protests . There has also been a greater level of fairness in reporting, and also a necessary acknowledgment that precious few facts are available yet. The media have asked the right questions, but have hesitated to fuel speculation. And that is the essence of responsible reporting. Summarize this article.

Q: Millions of colors in the visible spectrum can be generated by mixing red, green and blue - the RGB color system. Is there a basic set of smells that, when mixed, can yield all, or nearly all detectable smells ? A: There are about 100 (Purves, 2001) to 400 (Zozulya et al., 2001) functional olfactory receptors in man. While the total tally of olfactory receptor genes exceeds 1000, more than half of them are inactive pseudogenes. The combined activity of the expressed functional receptors accounts for the number of distinct odors that can be discriminated by the human olfactory system, which is estimated to be about 10,000 (Purves, 2001). Different receptors are sensitive to subsets of chemicals that define a “tuning curve.” Depending on the particular olfactory receptor molecules they contain, some olfactory receptor neurons exhibit marked selectivity to particular chemical stimuli, whereas others are activated by a number of different odorant molecules. In addition, olfactory receptor neurons can exhibit different thresholds for a particular odorant. How these olfactory responses encode a specific odorant is a complex issue that is unlikely to be explained at the level of the primary neurons (Purves, 2001). So in a way, the answer to your question is yes, as there are approximately 100 to 400 olfactory receptors. Just like the photoreceptors in the visual system, each sensory neuron in the olfactory epithelium in the nose expresses only a single receptor gene (Kimball). In the visual system for color vision there are just three (red, green and blue cones - RGB) types of sensory neurons, so it's a bit more complicated in olfaction.

Passage: The book tells the story of the quest for Captain Grant of the Britannia. After finding a bottle the captain had cast into the ocean after the Britannia is shipwrecked, Lord and Lady Glenarvan of Scotland contact Mary and Robert, the young daughter and son of Captain Grant, through an announcement in a newspaper. The government refuses to launch a rescue expedition, but Lord and Lady Glenarvan, moved by the children's condition, decide to do it by themselves. The main difficulty is that the coordinates of the wreckage are mostly erased, and only the latitude (37 degrees) is known; thus, the expedition would have to circumnavigate the 37th parallel south. The bottle was retrieved from a shark's stomach, so it is impossible to trace its origin by the currents. Remaining clues consist of a few words in three languages. They are re-interpreted several times throughout the novel to make various destinations seem likely. Lord Glenarvan makes it his quest to find Grant; together with his wife, Grant's children and the crew of his yacht, the Duncan, they set off for South America. An unexpected passenger in the form of French geographer Jacques Paganel (he missed his steamer to India by accidentally boarding on the Duncan) joins the search. They explore Patagonia, Tristan da Cunha Island, Amsterdam Island, and Australia (a pretext to describe the flora, fauna, and geography of numerous places to the targeted audience). There, they find a former quarter-master of the Britannia, Ayrton, who proposes to lead them to the site of the wreckage. However, Ayrton is a traitor, who was not present during the loss of the Britannia, but was abandoned in Australia after a failed attempt to seize control of the ship to practice piracy. He tries to take control of the Duncan, but by sheer luck, this attempt also fails. However the Glenarvans, the Grant children, Paganel and some sailors are left in Australia, and mistakenly believing that the Duncan is lost, they sail to Auckland, New Zealand, from where they want to come back to Europe. When their ship is wrecked south of Auckland on the New Zealand coast, they are captured by a Māori tribe, but luckily manage to escape and board a ship that they discover, to their astonishment, to be the Duncan. Ayrton, made a prisoner, offers to trade his knowledge of Captain Grant in exchange for being abandoned on a desert island instead of being surrendered to the British authorities. The Duncan sets sail for the Tabor Island, which, by sheer luck, turns out to be Captain Grant's shelter. They leave Ayrton in his place to live among the beasts and regain his humanity. Ayrton reappears in Verne's later novel, L'Île mystérieuse (The Mysterious Island, 1874). Question: What is Captain Grant's daughter's name? Answer: Mary

This question refers to the following information. The following excerpt is from a pamphlet. You will do me the justice to remember, that I have always strenuously supported the Right of every man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it. The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is Reason. I have never used any other, and I trust I never shall. The circumstance that has now taken place in France of the total abolition of the whole national order of priesthood, and of everything appertaining to compulsive systems of religion, and compulsive articles of faith, has not only precipitated my intention, but rendered a work of this kind exceedingly necessary, lest in the general wreck of superstition, of false systems of government, and false theology, we lose sight of morality, of humanity, and of the theology that is true. I believe in one God, and no more; and I hope for happiness beyond this life. I believe in the equality of man; and I believe that religious duties consist in doing justice, loving mercy, and endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy. I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church. All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit. I do not mean by this declaration to condemn those who believe otherwise; they have the same right to their belief as I have to mine. —Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason, 1794–1795 Which of the following Enlightenment philosophes designed a system of checks and balances for government to avoid abuses of power? A. Jean Jacques Rousseau B. Baron Montesquieu C. Mary Wollstonecraft D. Adam Smith Answer: B. Baron Montesquieu

Passage: Although originally conceived as an extended puff for Harper artists, who were also personal friends, the book presents some general ideas about the relation between author and illustration, picture and text, as well as the advancing technology of illustration. Both in print and in the theater, James welcomes advances in the technology of realism, but complains if the visual dominates author and actor. He praises the black-and-white engravings of the illustrators for their tact and their illumination of settings, but criticizes elaborate modern stage scenery that overwhelms the actor's art. These essays, although slight, are illustrated with drawings of each other by the artist subjects, and is itself an example of what James extols, as well as being a rare extended essay by James on the unity of the arts. The illustrators of whom he wrote were an Anglo-American group, all personal friends, at a time when Harper was his principal publisher. They were known in the day for their summer gatherings at the village of Broadway in the Cotswolds, where for several years James joined them, and where Sargent gained his first footing among British artists. Among the artists in the group, Charles Reinhart illustrated some of James' own fiction, Alfred Parsons designed James's gardens at Lamb House, and the sets for James' play Guy Domville whose first, raucous performance he attended. Edwin Abbey and Sargent later collaborated on the enormous wall paintings for the Boston Public Library, and were among the leading artists of their day. James' treatment of his friend Honore de Daumier was a welcome effort on behalf of an artist many considered little more than a political cartoonist. James found an "impressive depth" in Daumier's portrayal of the peculiar and the (sometimes) ugly. Many of Daumier's subjects are now remembered only in his often slashing work, but that's appropriate because all art "prolongs...preserves...consecrates...raises from the dead." In his essay on his protĂŠgĂŠ John Singer Sargent, James marvels at the painter's complete knowledge of his art and his unfailing technical proficiency. James particularly admires Sargent's portraits of women, such as Miss Burckhardt (not identified by name but illustrated in the magazine text of the article) and Madame X (called Madame G in the essay). "There is no greater work of art than a great portrait," James concludes, and Sargent's portraits combine "quick perception" and "lingering reflection." The essays on Daumier and Sargent have frequently been reprinted, but the book as a whole has been out of print since its first edition, in part because the black-and-white engravings that are its principal subject were so soon to be displaced by photographs and colored illustrations. Question: How was the Essays illustrated? Answer: The Essays were illustrated as a drawing of each other.

By . Annabel Fenwick Elliott . A Los Angeles-based filmmaker who made a short film last September, entitled Meet My Rapist, in an attempt to work through her latent trauma and improve her love life, says it has done exactly the opposite. Jessie Kahnweiler, 28, made the satirical film, which quickly went viral, in response to her rape, which occurred eight years ago while she was studying in abroad in Vietnam. 'The whole point of making this film was to reclaim my inner goddess, but instead I felt further away from her than ever,' Miss Kahnweiler writes for The Huffington Post. Haunted: Jessie Kahnweiler, 28, (left) made a dark comedy film last year in which she explores the effects of her rape, in hopes of exercising her demons and getting her love life back on track . The film, in which she plays herself, starts with Miss Kahnweiler bumping into her rapist at the farmer's market and unfolds as the mostly silent and highly shifty man follows her throughout the rest of her day. 'Dude it's so crazy running into you, after our unforgettable night on the air mattress,' she greets him with, in faux surprise. As the seven-minute film progresses, Miss Kahnweiler touches on a number of insensitive, but presumably common, responses she receives from people in her life in regards to the dark presence she lugs around with her. Fancy seeing you here: The satirical film sees Miss Kahnweiler bump into her rapist at a farmer's market, and is then followed by the creepy man for the rest of the day . During a job interview - in which her rapist aggravates her as he eerily stands by her shoulder - her potential boss barks: 'Hey, no one here wants an angry woman. When you come to work, you hang up your coat and leave your problems on the coat hook.' When she confesses the rape to her best friend, she is met with an equally snide reaction: 'But were you, like, really raped? Like, were you drunk?' the ditzy blonde questions, before breaking down and sniffing, 'It just hurts because as your best friend, it really affects me.' Miss Kahnweiler then introduces her rapist to her parents over lunch. Not the desired effect: The comedian and filmmaker says that men now avoid her, forcing her to question whether her 'chronic openness' had officially become 'too much' for potential mates . 'We've never heard Jess talk so much about a boy. You must have made quite an impression,' gushes her mother, adding, 'Welcome to the family!' Her last stop is an appointment with her therapist, in which she confides: 'Well, [my rapist] made me hate my body... But now I'm just thin enough to wear leggings as pants.' 'Fantastic!' her syrupy therapist responds, before adopting a patronizing tone and saying: 'I think it's time to move on. So I'm going to give you a prescription... to get the f*** over your s*** - because honey, no one wants to marry a rape victim.' Welcome to the family! In one scene, Miss Kahnweiler introduces her rapist to her parents, who enthusiastically attest that he seems to have made 'quite an impression' on their daughter . Inspired by her own frustrations with not being able to get over her ordeal, Miss Kahnweiler says making the film initially helped her. 'The movie helped me confront the effect my rape had on my identity, relationships and sexuality,' she writes, adding that she was 'overwhelmed' with its reception and the support that came flooding in, particularly from other rape victims. Her response from men, however, was another story. Patronizing: Mirroring some of her real-life experiences, one scene portrays her fictional therapist saying 'Honey, no one wants to marry a rape victim' Heading to the film screening's after party, excited to 'flirt with some dudes with ironic mustaches', she was surprised to find herself overwhelmingly avoided by the men who had seen the film, and was eventually forced to ask herself the question: 'Had my chronic openness officially become too much for potential mates?' Following the party, she describes a wash of polite but awkward interactions with men; from bad dates - 'Is he apologizing on behalf of the male species that I got raped?'- to confounded hopefuls - 'My faithful booty call lost my number and my new crush claimed he was moving to Canada.' Ultimately, she says, despite the catharsis she has gained from making the film, she realized she was still looking to men to validate her sexuality - an issue she is still dutifully working on. All smiles: Miss Kahnweiler has since admitted that while the film was cathartic for her, it didn't change the underlying fact that she was still feeling 'unsexy' in herself - a problem she continues to explore . Miss Kahnweiler has since spoken to ELLE.com about why she thinks she was scaring men away. 'I was feeling unsexy in myself and I was projecting it onto all of these guys,' she says, adding that for a lot of men 'It's just too much.' 'I don’t know if I can blame this all on my rape,' she remarks. It comes out as comical, but there is nothing more shocking than the truth . The sparky truth-teller, who identifies herself as a true feminist, says the next hot topic she will be tackling is her eating disorder. She admits she was 'in denial' about her bulimia for a long time, and that she coped with her rape by taking laxatives for a month immediately after her attack. Miss Kahnweiler, who says she is currently seeing two therapists, promises to inject the same dark humor into her next project as she did with her Meet My Rapist film. 'It comes out as comical, but there is nothing more shocking than the truth,' she says. Summarize this article. The film, a satirical dark comedy, quickly went viral on YouTube - scoring over 80,000 views . Jessie Kahnweiler finds herself overwhelmingly avoided by the men who have seen it .

An Idaho man who fired an assault rifle at the White House and struck the residential wing in 2011 pleaded guilty on Wednesday to terrorism and weapons charges. Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, 22, of Idaho Falls, drove 2,000 miles to Washington to carry out the attack, the Justice Department said. On Nov. 11, 2011, shortly before 9 p.m. ET, he stopped his car in the middle of Constitution Avenue and fired at least eight shots from a Romanian Cugir semi-automatic, an AK-47 style rifle, through the open passenger window. He sped off but crashed nearby, managing to get away on foot and ultimately hopping aboard an empty car of a freight train. He was arrested in Indiana, Pennsylvania, five days later. No one was hurt in the incident. Read the complaint against Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez . Ortega-Hernandez faces a minimum of 10 years in prison, and a possible maximum of just over 27 years under sentencing guidelines. He admitted that the attack was an act of terrorism. "Firing an assault rifle at the White House to make a political statement is terrorism, plain and simple," U.S. Attorney Ron Machen said in a statement that also made reference to this week's Washington Navy Yard shooting. "As we have seen this week, gunmen who come to the nation's capital bent on violence can inflict terrible damage," Machen said. According to the FBI, Ortega-Hernandez's friends reported that he made anti-government statements beginning in 2010. He believed that the federal government was trying to control Americans through GPS, fluoride and aspartame. He was also angry at what he believed was U.S. bullying of other countries, including in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and claimed that the president was the "anti-Christ" and told friends he was "on a mission from God to take out Obama." He bought the assault rifle from a private seller the previous March for $550, and later bought more than 1,200 rounds of ammunition and a scope, federal authorities said. He practiced shooting on federal land near Idaho Falls. According to the FBI, Ortega-Hernandez made two short videos on October 23, 2011, praising Osama bin Laden for having the courage to stand up to the United States, and called for a revolution against the federal government. In the videos, Ortega-Hernandez described himself as a "cold-hearted warrior of God" and declared, "it's time for Armageddon." After the shooting, FBI and Secret Service agents found eight locations where the bullets struck the White House, including a window sill of the Truman balcony on the south side of the mansion.

How much does John save per year by splitting the apartment compared to living alone? Answer: His old apartment cost 1200*12=$<<1200*12=14400>>14,400 per year His new apartment 1200*1.4=$<<1200*1.4=1680>>1680 per month That means it cost 1680/3=$<<1680/3=560>>560 per month So it cost 560*12=$<<560*12=6720>>6720 So he saves 14400-6720=$<<14400-6720=7680>>7680 The answer is 7680.

Q: How does one attack a two-time pad (i.e. one time pad with key reuse)? I am new to cryptography and my problem is with two time pad attacks on OTP. The problem I had in my course was that I have 10 ciphertexts encrypted with the same key $K$. I am then given another ciphertext that I should decrypt. I know that XOR-ing two ciphers gives me the XOR of their original messages. My question is what is the correct thing to do after that? I tried to take 3 ciphertexts $C_1, C_2$ and $C_3$. Then get $S_1 = C_1 \oplus C_2 \oplus $```' '```, also get $S_2 = C_1 \oplus C_3 \oplus$ ```' '```. After that I compared all corresponding characters in $S_1$ and $S_2$, and if $S_1[i] = S_2[i]$ then I calculate $S_1[i] \oplus C_2[i]$ to get $K[i]$. I tried this on paper before coding and it worked, but I might be missing something. Is this the right approach? Why does it work? A: The classical answer to "what is the correct thing to do after you have the XOR of the two original messages" is crib-dragging. That is, you take a guess of a common phrase that may appear in one of the plaintexts (the classical example against ASCII english is the 5 letter " the "), and exclusive-or that against the XOR of the two original messages in various locations. If one of the plaintexts had the text of the crib (" the " in our example), then the result of the exclusive-or is what the other plaintext had in that position; if neither plaintext had that, it's likely that the result of the exclusive-or is just gibberish. And, once you have a plausible short section, you can extend it (for example, if you know that one of the plaintexts is " na**", you can go through the dictionary of all words that start with "na", use those as cribs, and see which makes the other plaintext make sense). In addition, you can often deduce things directly from the bit pattern. For example, if the messages are in ASCII, then one thing to note that bit 6 of letters is set, but bit 6 of spaces, numbers and (most) punctuation is clear; because spaces are far more common than numbers and punctuation, then that will give you a good guess of where spaces occur in the texts (albeit without telling you which message a specific space appears in). Now, if you have 11 messages all encrypted with the same pad (an "11-time pad"), things get even easier. Obviously, you can grab a crib across one message, and check it against the other 10; if it makes all 10 make sense, then it is almost certainly accurate. Even better, by using the observation that you can distinguish spaces from letters (again, by comparing bit 6), you can find where all the spaces appear in the messages; these all act like 1 character cribs, probably revealing virtually all the text of all the messages.

Passage: Recently divorced Meg Altman and her 11-year-old daughter Sarah have just purchased a four-story brownstone on the Upper West Side of New York City. The house's previous owner, a reclusive millionaire, installed an isolated room used to protect the house's occupants from intruders. The "panic room" is protected by concrete and steel on all sides, a thick steel door, and an extensive security system with multiple surveillance cameras, a public announcement system, and a separate phone line. On the night the two move into the home, it is broken into by Junior (Leto), the previous owner's grandson; Burnham (Whitaker), an employee of the residence's security company; and Raoul (Yoakam), a ski mask-wearing gunman recruited by Junior. The three are after $3 million in bearer bonds, which are locked inside a floor safe in the panic room. After discovering that the Altmans have moved in earlier than expected, Junior convinces a reluctant Burnham, who assumed the house was unoccupied, to continue with their heist. As they begin the robbery, Meg wakes up and happens to see the intruders on the video monitors in the panic room. Before the three can reach them, Meg and Sarah run into the panic room and close the door behind them. They are unable to use the phone in the room which has a separate phone line that was never hooked up by Meg. Intending to force the two out of the room, Burnham introduces propane gas into the room's air vents. Raoul, in conflict with Burnham and Junior, dangerously increases the amount of gas. Unable to seal the vents, Meg ignites the gas while she and Sarah cover themselves with fireproof blankets, causing an explosion which vents into the room outside and causes a fire, injuring Junior. The Altmans make several attempts to call for help, including signaling a neighbor with a flashlight through the opening of a ventilation pipe, but the neighbor ignores it. Meg then taps into the main telephone line and gets through to her ex-husband Stephen (Bauchau), before the burglars cut them off. When all attempts to get into the room fail, Junior lets slip that there is much more money in the safe than he let on, and gives up on the robbery. About to leave the house, he is shot by Raoul, who forces Burnham, at gunpoint, to finish the robbery. Stephen arrives at the home and is taken hostage by Burnham and Raoul—who severely beats him. To make matters worse, Sarah, who has diabetes, suffers a seizure. Her emergency glucagon syringe is in a refrigerator outside the panic room. After using an unconscious Stephen to trick Meg into momentarily leaving the panic room, Burnham enters it, finding Sarah motionless on the floor. After retrieving the syringe for Sarah, Meg struggles briefly with Raoul, who is thrown into the panic room, his gun knocked out of his hand. As Meg throws the syringe into the panic room, Burnham frantically locks himself, Raoul, and Sarah inside, crushing Raoul's hand in the sliding steel door. Meg, who now has the gun, begs the two intruders over the PA system to give Sarah the injection. After some time Burnham, who has shown no interest in hurting either Meg or Sarah throughout the film, gives Sarah the injection. While doing so, he tells Sarah he did not want this, and the only reason he agreed to participate was to give his own child a better life. After Burnham gives Sarah the injection, Sarah thanks him and he tells Meg that Sarah is now alright. Having earlier received a call from Stephen, two policemen arrive, which prompts Raoul to threaten Sarah's life. Sensing the potential danger to her daughter, Meg lies to the officers and they leave. Meanwhile, Burnham opens the safe and removes the $22 million in bearer bonds inside. As the robbers attempt to leave, using Sarah as a hostage, Meg hits Raoul with a sledgehammer and Burnham flees. After a badly injured Stephen shoots at Raoul and misses, Raoul disables him and prepares to kill Meg with the sledgehammer, but Burnham, upon hearing Sarah's screams of pain, returns to the house and shoots Raoul dead, stating, "You'll be okay now", to Meg and her daughter before leaving. The police, alerted by Meg's suspicious behavior earlier, arrive in force and capture Burnham, who lets the bearer bonds go; they fly away with the wind. Later, Meg and Sarah, having recovered from their harrowing experience, begin searching the newspaper for a new home. Question: What are the thieves after? Answer: bearer bonds

She could have at least bought of pair of pants that fit . And the bride wore — a thong. Ill-fitting, at that! All those millions in the bank, and you can’t even get a pair of pants to fit you right. Big things were expected from the wedding of heiress Tamara Ecclestone to her boyfriend of five minutes Jay WotsisName. And in the end, the event held in the South of France did not disappoint. Tamara’s all-white beach party was less Gatsbyesque than cr**sbyesque, but I loved the way she thundered around in her thong, drank shots, groin-danced with a pal and threw herself into the sea. It was just like a hen party in Magaluf, only with slightly nicer wine and less vomit. How absolutely lovely. And we must all wish Tamara well. Despite all that loot, the bouffant-haired socialite hasn’t had it easy! She may have found love with Thingy, but think of the humiliation dished out by long-standing boyfriend Omar Khyami. He was filmed having sex with someone else, while wearing love tokens — bracelets and jewellery — that Tamara had given him. So what did she do in revenge? She did what all girls like her do — she got a tattoo. So empowering! That’ll show him. Tamara turned to Marilyn Monroe, another doomed dame who was a disastrous chooser of men, for inspiration. The wedding party looked more like a hen party in Magaluf but with less vomit and nicer wine . On her shoulder, she now has a tattoo of a quote from the Hollywood legend, which reads: ‘Sometimes good things fall apart so better ones can fall together.’ It is what any shallow heiress would deem as profound.

Q: How to repair a punctured tire? A: Did you know that you can repair your punctured tire, and not have to spend all that cash buying a brand new tire? If you're prepared to get a little greasy and do the legwork yourself, you can find yourself back on the road and enjoying the drive-in on time. ## Patch a puncture tire 1. Locate the tire that is losing air. Remove your valve caps first. You can either find the hole by looking for the nail that is pierced through the tire, or you can put the tire in a tub of water and roll it around in driving rotation. There should be air bubbles where the hole is. 2. Take the tire off from the rim. This allows the puncture to be easily accessed. 3. Remove anything that's in the tire. If you have found the hole, and there is a nail punctured through it, use your pliers. Grab from the threading of the nail and lift out the nail. Mark the hole with tire chalk for easy access. 4. Once the hole is clear, squirt some buffering solution over the puncture. This allows the buffer to work effectively and leave you with a smooth surface. 5. Grab your buffer machine. Make sure that you have a sanding pad surface on your buffer to get a smooth surface. Buff all around the punctured area in a circular motion to make sure you get everywhere you need. 6. Use a Tire Radial Patch. You can start by first removing the sticky pads of the inner side of the Radial Patch. Then from the inside of the tire, you can stick the Radial Patch through the hole about halfway with the aluminum side first. 7. Spread the Tire Chemical Care (Seal Fast B-133). Using the brush at the end of the cap, spread the liquid material all around the Radial Patch string as shown in the picture. 8. Pull the rest of the Radial Patch through the tire. You must pull all the way through until the patch completely sits on the inner side of the tire, and the aluminum piece comes out of the rubber. 9. Cut the long leftover end of the patch using your cutting pliers. Scissors will work too. As shown in the picture, you want to cut as low as you can. 10. Roll over the patch. Using your Tire Retread and Repair Tool, run over the Radial Patch from the inside of the tire. You can roll it in any direction, as long as you make sure to get every spot of the patch. Once the steps have been completed, your tire is ready to hit me back on the rims and filled to the pressure needed to be back on the road. ## Temporary fix on a puncture tire 1. Locate the tire that is losing air. Remove your valve caps first. You can either find the hole by looking for the nail that is pierced through the tire, or you can put the tire in a tub of water and roll it around in driving rotation. There should be air bubbles where the hole is. 2. Keep the tire on the rim and expand the hole. Using the Pistol Grip Rasp Tool, you can insert it through the puncture moving it up and down. It will expand the hole if needed to fit the Tire Repair Refills in. 3. Spray Heavy Duty Silicone Lubricant over the punctured area. 4. Grab the Pistol Grip Inserting Needle and take a piece of the Tire Repair Refills. Put the Tire Repair Refills piece through the Needle as shown in the picture. 5. When the refill piece is placed in between the needle, you can hold from the pistol grip and pierce the needle through the hole and pull the needle back out. The Tire Repair Refill piece should be left inside the hole. 6. Cut off the refill piece that is sticking out of the tire using the cutting pliers or even scissors. (If you have a lighter, you can even set the extra piece of the refill on fire).

Question: In 21 hours, a heating plant consumes 7 liters of fuel. How much does it consume in 90 hours? Answer: Let x be the consumption in 90 hours. We have: 21/7 = 90/x because the heating plant always consumes fuel at the same rate Multiplying both sides by 7x, we get 21x = 90 * 7 This can be simplified to 21x = 630 So, the consumption in 90 hours is x = 630 / 21 = <<630/21=30>>30 liters. The answer is 30.

(CNN) -- Turkish troops backed by air support attacked Kurdish rebels Friday in northern Iraq, the Turkish military said. Turkish tanks on the move near the border town of Silopi in Sirnak province, southeastern Turkey. At least 24 suspected Kurd militants were killed, the Turkish military reported, adding it suffered 5 casualties. The incursion against the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) in Iraq began around 7 p.m. Thursday. In a statement, the Turkish military said it would act with "utmost sensitivity in order to avoid negative impact on local elements" -- a reference to keeping civilians out of the conflict. "The Turkish Armed Forces, which values Iraq's territorial integrity and its stability, will return as soon as planned goals are achieved," the military said. "The executed operation will prevent the region from being a permanent and safe base for the terrorists and will contribute to Iraq's stability and internal peace." Turkey has been taking cross-border military action, including airstrikes and artillery shelling, against the PKK in retaliation to attacks by the group on targets in Turkey from bases in the Kurdish region of northern Iraq. The PKK has spent two decades fighting for autonomy for Kurds in southeastern Turkey. Turkey has also been carrying out small ground operations into Iraq, forays characterized as "hot pursuit" incursions with a few hundred commandos responding to a particular threat. Citing Turkish media reports estimating that as many as 10,000 Turkish troops had been involved, Fadi Hakura, an analyst with UK military thinktank Chatham House, said the operation was the first major incursion by Turkey into Iraq since Hussein was toppled in 2003. Hakura said the Turkish military wanted to conduct a surprise attack against the PKK prior to the springtime, when violent attacks tend to escalate, and when the snow in the mountainous border region leaves the fighters' footprints. "Normally during the 1980s and the 1990s, the incursions involved 35,000 50,000 troops and they tended to be somewhat open-ended over weeks. This one is expected to be limited to a matter of days and targeted attacks against the PKK," he said. U.S. officials were downplaying the scope of the operation Friday. Tom Casey, deputy State Department spokesman, said Iraqi Foreign Ministry Hoshyar Zebari called the incursion "limited in nature" and not "major." "The PKK is a common enemy of the U.S., Turkey and Iraq. We need to work together to resolve it," Casey said. "We are pleased that Turks have stressed that they will do everything possible to avoid acts that would harm civilians." Rear Adm. Gregory Smith, a spokesman for the U.S. military in Iraq, told CNN the military is "aware" of a Turkish "operation of limited duration to specifically target PKK terrorists in that region." "Turkey has given its assurances it will do everything possible to avoid collateral damage to innocent civilians or Kurdish infrastructure," Smith said. The ground troops' deployment followed cross-border shelling early Thursday by Turkish soldiers into abandoned villages north of Irbil -- the capital of Iraq's Kurdish Regional Government. The shelling, which struck abandoned villages in the Khwar-Kork area north of Irbil, lasted two hours and was followed by heavy gunfire, a KRG official told CNN. There were no reports of casualties. Border tensions have been a source of diplomatic disagreement between the U,S. and its Iraqi and Turkish allies. U.S. and Iraqi authorities have been concerned that any large-scale operation by Turkey into Iraq to chase down Kurdish rebels could destabilize the region. At the same time, the U.S. backs Turkey's efforts to battle the PKK, which both countries regard as a terrorist group and has been providing intelligence to the Turks. "The United States continues to support Turkey's right to defend itself from the terrorist activities of the PKK and has encouraged Turkey to use all available means, to include diplomacy and close coordination with the Government of Iraq to ultimately resolve this issue," Smith said.

A spokeswoman for Winfrey, who once produced a reality series based on philanthropy known as Oprah's Big Give, said: 'Patricia’s greatest dream was to go to college and become a social worker. Oprah wants to support that dream.' Winfrey, who is worth an estimated $2.9billion, was born to an unmarried, teenage mother Vernita Lee in 1956 in Kosciusko, Mississippi. Patricia Lofton was born to Vernita Lee in 1963 while she was living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Unable to cope, Ms Lee had already sent Oprah to live with her father in Nashville, Tennessee.

Question: Sarah interviewed 450 students at her school and asked them which fruit they liked best - oranges, apples, pears or strawberries. 70 students said they liked oranges, 120 students said they liked pears, and 147 students said they liked apples. How many students picked strawberries as their favorite fruit from the list? Answer: First, you have to add the number of students that liked the three other fruits. Therefore, you have to add 70 + 120 + 147. This gives you a sum of 337. We know that 450 students were interviewed, so you have to subtract 337 from 450 to get the number of students who liked strawberries. 450 - 337 = <<450-337=113>>113 students liked strawberries best out of all of the fruits. The answer is 113.

If the number of green turtles is 800, calculate the number of turtles that have been taken into the conservation center. Answer: If the number of hawksbill turtles is twice more than the number of green turtles, then there are 2*800 = <<2*800=1600>>1600 more hawksbill turtles. The total number of hawksbill turtles is 800+1600 = <<800+1600=2400>>2400 The total number of turtles that have been taken into the conservation center is 2400+800 = <<2400+800=3200>>3200 turtles. The answer is 3200.

I don’t want to have anything less than amazing for you and I’m sorry for the things I saw without thinking and for taking offense to some of your actions.’ He said that his illness and sickness was not ‘an excuse.’ ‘I was upset you that you just left me after we got food to go talk to a guy and I was standing right behind you watching you touch his arm and ignore me and when I spoke up you introduced me which you could’ve done but when I left you just kept on chatting to him when clearly I was upset.'

(CNN) -- The European Union imposed a ban Friday on the import of Syrian oil, the latest diplomatic move against Bashar al-Assad's embattled regime. "The prohibition concerns purchase, import and transport of oil and other petroleum products from Syria. No financial or insurance services may be provided for such transactions," the European Council said in a statement issued in Brussels, Belgium. The action was expected. The EU has been a top market for Syrian oil, and the group said it intended to make the move which will have a detrimental impact on the Syrian government's oil revenues. The organization also added four more Syrians and three entities to a list of those targeted by an asset freeze and a travel ban. But there is an exemption to the asset freeze for humanitarian purposes. World powers have been bearing down on the al-Assad regime because of the government's ferocious crackdown against peaceful protesters for nearly six months. Security forces opened fire on demonstrators on Friday and activist groups reported deaths. The Local Coordination Committees of Syria counted 18 deaths. Demonstrations occurred in Daraa, Damascus and Homs provinces. The state-run Syrian Arab News Agency said three law-enforcement members and four gunmen were killed in clashes. SANA said "armed terrorist groups" killed the security forces in the Damascus and Homs countryside. The gunmen also died in those areas, it said. The government says the armed groups are responsible for the bloodshed, while demonstrators blame the deaths on military and security forces. CNN is not able to independently verify the accounts because of Syrian limitations on reporting. Summarize this article. The state-run news agency reports security, gunmen deaths .

Passage: Set over Thanksgiving weekend, 1973, the film centers around Ben and Elena Hood, and their children, 16-year-old Paul and 14-year-old Wendy, and their neighbors, Jim and Janey Carver, and their children: Mikey and Sandy. Ben, dissatisfied in his marriage and with the futility of his career, is having an affair with Janey. Elena is bored with her life and is looking to expand her thinking but is unsure of how to do so. Wendy enjoys sexual games with her school peers, as well as both Carver boys. Paul has fallen for a classmate, Libbitz, at the boarding school he attends, though his roommate Francis is also interested in her. On the Friday night after Thanksgiving, Ben and Elena have an argument when she learns of his affair with Janie, but they go ahead with their plans to attend a neighborhood party, which turns out to be a key party", where married couples swap sexual partners by having wives select other husbands' keys from a bowl; Jim and Jamie are also there. As the party progresses, Ben becomes drunk. When Janey chooses the keys of a handsome young man, Ben attempts to protest but trips and knocks his head on the coffee table, leading Jim to realize that his wife and Ben are having an affair. Ben, in his embarrassment, retreats to the bathroom where he remains for the rest of the evening. The remaining key party participants are paired off and leave together with only Jim and Elena remaining. She retrieves Jim's keys from the bowl and returns them to him. After debating the issue, Jim and Elena leave together, engaging in a quick, clumsy sexual encounter in the front seat of Jim's car. Jim, regretting the line he and Elena have just crossed, offers to drive her home. Wendy decides to make her way to the Carvers' to see Mikey, but he has decided to go out into the ice storm, so she and Sandy climb into bed together and remove their clothes. They drink from a bottle of vodka and Wendy tries to seduce him; however, they both fall asleep. Paul is invited to Libitz' apartment in Manhattan, though upon arriving, is disappointed to learn that Francis was also invited. The three drink beer and listen to music; Francis and Libitz also take prescription pills found in Libitz' mother's medicine cabinet, causing them to eventually pass out. Paul decides to leave, just narrowly making the train about to leave for New Canaan. Meanwhile, Mikey, out walking in the storm, is enchanted by the beauty of the trees and fields covered in ice. He slides down an icy hill then sits on a guardrail to rest. A moment later a power line, broken by a fallen tree, connects with the guardrail and he is electrocuted. Jim and Elena become stuck, due to a downed tree, and return to the Carvers' house as dawn is breaking. Elena walks in on her daughter in bed with Sandy and orders her to get dressed. Janey had also returned home earlier and curled up on her bed in the fetal position without bothering to take off her party clothes. Although it is not revealed what transpired between Janey and her 'key partner', she is visibly exhausted and sad. Ben has sobered up by this time and begins driving home. He discovers Mikey's body on the side of the road and carries it back to the Carvers' house. The two families are drawn together by Mikey's death and Wendy hugs the shocked and numbed Sandy in an attempt to comfort him. Jim is devastated while Janey remains asleep and ignorant to the recent events. Ben, Elena and Wendy then drive to the train station to pick up Paul, who is returning from Libbits' apartment, his train delayed by the ice and the power failure caused by the downed wire. Once all four are together in the car, Ben breaks down, sobbing uncontrollably at the wheel as Elena starts comforting him. Question: Who does Wendy enjoy sexual games with? Answer: Her school peers.
