Dedicated to human history, art and culture, The British Museum has over 8 million permanent objects in its collection and is spread over multiple floors and wings of its impressive Bloomsbury building. From its extensive collection of Egyptian mummies to the Rosetta Stone, there are numerous exhibitions to capture your imagination. The museum is free to enjoy, though runs separately ticketed exhibitions throughout the year, as well. \n\n2. Explore Spitalfields Market. Since the 17th century, traders have been operating out of this East London market selling food, art, antiques, jewellery, and so much more. Today, the covered market is a hot destination for fashion and food enthusiasts with numerous stalls and shops open every day of the week. On the weekends, the market hosts various community events including pop-up music festivals. \n\n3. Shop at Westfield London. Located in West London, Westfield London is an enormous shopping centre hosting roughly 320 stores and restaurants spread over 2.5 million square feet, including the high-end retail sector named The Village. In addition to a wide selection of food and shopping, there are multiple activity options including miniature golf, rock climbing, and a cinema. \n\n4. Visit the Barbican Centre. The Barbican Centre is a large performing arts centre in the City of London nestled in the impressive Barbican Estate, which is an impressive example of Brutalist architecture. The centre is home to both the London Symphony Orchestra and the BBC Symphony Orchestra, in addition to hosting multiple theatre performances, film screenings, and additional concerts. The public are also welcome to enjoy its library, dine in one of its three restaurants, or explore its vast indoor conservatory. \n\n5. Explore the Battersea Power Station. The Grade-II listed Battersea Power Station, which sits on the south bank of the Thames just west of Westminster, was recently refurbished and reopened as a shopping and leisure destination. Inside the building, there are various shops, eateries, and bard including Control Room B: a cocktail bar nestled within the original dials and controls of the power station. If there's a break in the rainy weather, the riverfront of the power station is lined with additional food stalls, and Battersea Park is a short five-minute walk away down the bank of the Thames. If the rain stays all day, though, there are plenty of activities sheltered by the power station including miniature gold, ping pong, and a cinema. \n\nWhether it's rain or shine, London has an endless supply of activities, sights, and eateries to ensure you have an unforgettable trip.

The music genre known as pirate metal is a unique blend of heavy metal and sea shanties, accompanied by folk instruments like the concertina. Despite the unusual mix, bands such as Alestorm have found success in this genre and have a dedicated following.\n2. Math rock is an indie rock style that utilizes complex time signatures and unusual meters. The genre emerged in the 1980s and peaked in the mid-1990s. Today, similar techniques have been adapted to pop music, resulting in the creation of the genre known as \"math pop.\"\n3. Steven Roden created the minimalist ambient music genre called \"lowercase\" in 2001 by manipulating and amplifying sounds made from handling paper. The genre is characterized by its quiet and unobtrusive nature and gained attention following the release of the compilation album \"Lowercase-Sound\" in 2002. Roden's track \"Bell Is The Truth (Berlin)\" exemplifies the beauty of the genre, created by tapping light bulbs in total darkness to produce bell-like sounds.\n4. Witch House is a genre that doesn't have any resemblance to house music, despite the name. It was coined by Travis Egedy (aka, Pictureplane) and features slow tempo, chopped and screwed songs with elements of goth, shoegaze, hip-hop, drone, noise, and industrial. Other artists, such as Clams Casino, Holy Other, and Zola Jesus, have also incorporated Witch House elements into their music. Though the genre burned out after a few years, it remains captivating.\n5. Skweee is a genre of mostly instrumental music that originated in Sweden and Finland, combining synth leads and basslines with funk and soul rhythms. Its name reflects the idea of squeezing out the grooviest sound possible. Skweee was also a major influence on dubstep during 2008-2009.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Over time, it became covered with vegetation. As a result, it blended in and Spaniards first mistook it for a hill when they conquered Mexico in 1521.

His parents – Joseph Regan Leggett and Mary, née Martin – both teachers, took charge of the so-called Indian Academy there, later establishing a school at their home Lansdale Cottage.[3] Both had their verse published in provincial newspapers, and William's maternal aunt Rachel Martin was also a teacher and poet.\n\nWilliam was educated by his parents.

She bore him three children, only one of whom survived infancy.[6] William's second volume of verse, Sacred Poetry By a Wesleyan Minister, appeared in 1840.[7] In 1845 he left for England to pursue a career in letters, at which point he disappears from Canadian records.

Getting up early is a great habit to have. People have a natural circadian rhythm that controls certain hormones. Waking up early will help you maintain your circadian rhythm.\n2. Drink water in the morning. Drinking water soon after you wake up will help keep you hydrated. Since low levels of dehydration are linked with fatigue and headaches, you should drink water when you first get up.\n3. Incorporate movement into your day. Human bodies were designed to move, yet many of your jobs are sedentary. You should incorporate movement into your day because exercise has tremendous health benefits.\n4. Go outside. Being outside will allow you to breathe some fresh air. The sunlight also provides vitamin D which your body needs. Deficiencies in vitamin D are linked to fatigue, low mood, and depression.\n5. Sit down to eat. Digestion occurs best when you are sitting down. \n6. Walking. Although walking is often overlooked as a healthy habit, it improves fitness, and heart health, and prevents gaining weight. Walking is also linked to improved posture and circulation.\n7. Cook for yourself. Cooking for yourself allows you to control what you are eating. Cooking is also a form of self-care that you can practice every day.\n8. Eat some vegetables. Eating vegetables is a healthy choice. By choosing to eat vegetables, you can reduce the number of unhealthy foods you eat.\n9. Limit your phone time. Studies have shown that the blue light emitted from phones leads to a reduction in melatonin which your body needs to regulate sleep. This can negatively affect your natural circadian rhythm.\n10. Do some cleaning. A messy physical space around you can affect your mood. Cleaning up can reduce frustration and make it easier to cook for yourself.\n11. Read something. Reading can stimulate growth, reduce stress, reduce age-related cognitive decline, and help you sleep at night.\n12. Get plenty of rest. It is recommended that you get at least 8 hours of sleep at night. Low-quality sleep and lack of sleep have been linked to several ailments. ", "role": "assistant" } ]

She made her debut on the London stage with the young up-and-coming Laurence Olivier in the play \"The Circle of Chalk.\" After receiving a drubbing for her voice and singing from the London critics, she paid a Cambridge University tutor to improve her speech, with the result that she acquired an upper-crust English accent. Later she appeared in Vienna, Austria, in the play \"Springtime.\"\n\nEuropean directors appreciated Wong's unique talents and beauty, and they used her in ways that stereotype-minded Hollywood, hemmed in by American prejudice, would not or could not. Moving to Germany to appear in German films, she became acquainted with German film personalities, including Marlene Dietrich and actress-filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl. She learned German and French and began to develop a continental European attitude and outlook. In Europe she was welcomed as a star. According to her biographer Graham Russell Gao Hodges, Wong hobnobbed with \"an intellectual elite that included princes, playwrights, artists and photographers who clamored to work with her.\" Anna May Wong was featured in magazines all over the world, far more than actresses of a similar level of accomplishment. She became a media superstar, and her coiffure and complexion were copied, while \"coolie coats\" became the rage. According to Hodges, \"[S]he was the one American star who spoke to the French people, more than Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford or Mary Pickford, the top American actresses of the time.\" But, ironically, \"[S]he's the one who's now forgotten.\" Wong was cast in Ewald André Dupont's silent film Piccadilly (1929) as a maid who is fired from her job at a London nightclub after dancing on top of a table, then rehired as a dancer to infuse the club with exotic glamour.

She was back in stereotype-land, this time as the ultimate \"Dragon Lady,\" who with her father Fu Manchu (played by ethnic Swede Warner Oland, the future Charlie Chan) embodied the evil \"Yellow Peril.\" While \"Daughter of the Dragon\" may have been B-movie pulp, it enabled Wong to show off her talent by delivering a powerful performance.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Anna Wong moved to Europe to escape stereotype casting, making her debut in London, and hired a tutor to help her improve her speech.

But the feeling can occur in almost every type of human relationship—from siblings competing for parental attention to coworkers trying to impress a respected boss.\n\nAlthough jealousy is a painful emotional experience, evolutionary psychologists regard it not as an emotion to be suppressed but as one to heed—as a signal or a wake-up call that a valued relationship is in danger and that steps need to be taken to regain the affection of a mate or friend. As a result, jealousy is seen as a necessary emotion, because it preserves social bonds and motivates people to engage in behaviors that maintain important relationships.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "I get jealous when I think about my partner talking to other women.

[ { "content": "Turn the pasted text into a 10-question quiz that has answers.\n\nIt’s important to recognize the symptoms of schizophrenia and seek help as early as possible. People with schizophrenia are usually diagnosed between the ages of 16 and 30, after the first episode of psychosis. Starting treatment as soon as possible following the first episode of psychosis is an important step toward recovery. However, research shows that gradual changes in thinking, mood, and social functioning often appear before the first episode of psychosis. Schizophrenia is rare in younger children.\n\nSchizophrenia symptoms can differ from person to person, but they generally fall into three main categories: psychotic, negative, and cognitive.\n\nPsychotic symptoms include changes in the way a person thinks, acts, and experiences the world. People with psychotic symptoms may lose a shared sense of reality with others and experience the world in a distorted way. For some people, these symptoms come and go. For others, the symptoms become stable over time. Psychotic symptoms include:\n\nHallucinations: When a person sees, hears, smells, tastes, or feels things that are not actually there. Hearing voices is common for people with schizophrenia. People who hear voices may hear them for a long time before family or friends notice a problem.\nDelusions: When a person has strong beliefs that are not true and may seem irrational to others. For example, individuals experiencing delusions may believe that people on the radio and television are sending special messages that require a certain response, or they may believe that they are in danger or that others are trying to hurt them.\nThought disorder: When a person has ways of thinking that are unusual or illogical. People with thought disorder may have trouble organizing their thoughts and speech. Sometimes a person will stop talking in the middle of a thought, jump from topic to topic, or make up words that have no meaning.\nMovement disorder: When a person exhibits abnormal body movements. People with movement disorder may repeat certain motions over and over.\nNegative symptoms include loss of motivation, loss of interest or enjoyment in daily activities, withdrawal from social life, difficulty showing emotions, and difficulty functioning normally.\n\nNegative symptoms include:\n\nHaving trouble planning and sticking with activities, such as grocery shopping\nHaving trouble anticipating and feeling pleasure in everyday life\nTalking in a dull voice and showing limited facial expression\nAvoiding social interaction or interacting in socially awkward ways\nHaving very low energy and spending a lot of time in passive activities. In extreme cases, a person might stop moving or talking for a while, which is a rare condition called catatonia.\nThese symptoms are sometimes mistaken for symptoms of depression or other mental illnesses.\n\nCognitive symptoms include problems in attention, concentration, and memory. These symptoms can make it hard to follow a conversation, learn new things, or remember appointments. A person’s level of cognitive functioning is one of the best predictors of their day-to-day functioning. Health care providers evaluate cognitive functioning using specific tests.\n\nCognitive symptoms include:\n\nHaving trouble processing information to make decisions\nHaving trouble using information immediately after learning it\nHaving trouble focusing or paying attention\nThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recognized that having certain mental disorders, including depression and schizophrenia, can make people more likely to get severely ill from COVID-19.

Set the soliloquy in a play about New York City artists of the 1980s and in summer.\n\nThe years 1981 to 1984 were a brief period of intense artistic output that cemented Jean-Michel Basquiat’s place within the canon of art history. Initially working under the moniker SAMO, Basquiat, a friend of artist Keith Haring and actress Patti Astor, became an integral member of the social circle around the Mudd Club, the night club–gallery hybrid that defined downtown that decade. In 1981, Mudd Club cofounder Diego Cortez put the 21-year-old Basquiat—then known mainly as a street artist—in a group show called “New York/New Wave,” and he was well on his way to fame from there.\n\nBy 1983, Basquiat had found his way into the posse of the former Met curator Henry Geldzahler. That year, a discussion between Geldzahler and the artist published in Interview magazine limned the now-famous key elements of Basquiat’s work: royalty, heroism, and the streets. Despite his youth, the artist’s creative agility and his political acumen allowed him to emerge as major force unifying street art with painting, in effect bridging the gap between modes that have historically been considered high and low art. By the time Basquiat died at age 27 in 1988, he had become one of the top artists working in New York.\n\nOver the subsequent decades, Basquiat’s stature as an artist would be reevaluated by the very institutions in which he remains under-represented. Basquiat is among the most highly valued artists in the art market, and his work, all completed in the brief period between 1981 and 1984, regularly sells at auction for tens of millions of dollars.

My buddies Keith Haring and Patti Astor, we all ran together in the Mudd Club. \n\nTwo years later, around 1983, I found my way to Henry. Henry was a curator at the Met. That magazine, Interview, published one of our conversations where I talked about themes I was exploring in my work: royalty, heroism and the streets. I was young. So young. They liked the way I moved though, between the streets and those fancy high-art galleries. I was doing some of my best work and I was just this kid in my 20s. By the time I was 27, I was one of the top artists in the Big Apple. \n\nI wonder what they'll think of me decades from this Spring day. In the future, will they include me in their high-art institutions? Will my work sell for millions of dollars in the future? I can't think about that now.

Let's start by finding a comfortable position—perhaps seated with crossed legs, reclined, or maybe sprawled on your couch in front of the television with a bowl of popcorn on your lap—whatever stance will best support you in emptying your mind.\n\nNow let’s close our eyes and start to turn inward. If you feel immediately overwhelmed by feelings of guilt and self-loathing, that’s a sign you’re a mediocre or possibly bad person and you’ve turned too far inward, so dial it back a little. Focus on the sensation of breathing. How does it feel to fill the lungs with air and then release it all? If this sensation is uncomfortable, it’s possible you're actually a vampire or supernatural being that doesn't thrive on oxygen; if so, don’t panic. Close this video and search our home page for a video titled \"Guided meditation for sentient beings who do not breathe.\"\n\nIf you’re still with me, let’s begin a practice of progressive relaxation. Starting with the toes, we’ll scan the body for areas that are holding tension and manually relax them. How? I’m afraid there's no simple answer—just try to relax these muscles, and if they resist, impose your will by force. You might ask your doctor about a prescription for muscle relaxers.\n\nLet's bring attention to areas of the body that tend to be ignored. What does it feel like to release tension from your belly button? How does it feel to have relaxed fingernails? I’m seriously asking—this is not a rhetorical question. My manicurist says my fingernails exhibit symptoms of PTSD. Drop a comment below to reply. Please. I’m desperate.\n\nNow we'll draw our meditation to a close. Open your eyes slowly.\n\nAs you may be aware, this meditation hasn’t done anything to solve the world’s problems, improve your lot in life, or remedy the hurt you've caused others, but it should have at least helped you feel better about these problems without actually lifting a finger to change anything. So I hope you’ll like this video, subscribe, and join us for another guided meditation tomorrow so you can continue to feel superficially at peace about the impending apocalypse and evil impulses simmering quietly inside your soul.

Find a reputable source that provides helpful, relevant information that you can quote or incorporate to develop your writing. Just be certain to cite any sources you include, whether those sources are direct or indirect.\n4. Create a Rough Draft: A rough draft translates your outline into a structured essay with an introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion.\n5.

[ { "content": "Rewrite the article as study notes. Each section should include bullet points\n\nGlorious humanoids with gilded armors, beautiful wings, perfect faces, and an all-righteous nature that brings warmth, comfort, and solace — that’s how we picture angels. After all, that’s how we’ve depicted the majestic creatures throughout history in every piece of art and literature.\n\nIs this common description a portrayal of our reimagination, or does it have a striking resemblance to angels who rule heaven?\n\nAccording to the Bible, it would appear that we’re in the wrong. Unlike the gentle, human-like apparitions we’re familiar with, angels look strange, terrifying even. And it would appear that there’s a good reason behind it.\n\n\nBiblical Depiction of an Angel via reddit.com\nConceptualizing Angels: A Brief History\nThe word “angel” has a couple of origins. It is derived from the Greek word “angelos,” and the Greek word, in turn, comes from the Hebrew word “Mal’ akh,” which stands for messenger.\n\n\nWhen we’re visualizing an angel, we’re often thinking of Malakim, who acted on God’s behalf in the Old Testament to carry out his judgment and took on the role of messengers in the New Testament.\n\nMalakim are said to be the closest depiction of human beings. However, they are not mentioned in the Bible as beings with wings.\n\nIndeed, the earliest known Christian image of an angel, from the mid-third century, depicted them as human-like beings without wings.\n\nThis image, however, changed in the late fourth century as artists reimagined angels with wings to represent their sublime nature, even though the scripture makes no mention of wings.\n\n\nPopular Angels and Their Biblical Forms\nLet’s take a look at some of the most well-known depictions of the angels we’re familiar with and how much they differ from their Biblical descriptions.\n\nCherubim\nAccording to the Bible, cherubim are responsible for guarding the Garden of Eden — the Biblical terrestrial paradise — against humankind when Adam and Eve, the first humans, were driven out of the heavenly garden.\n\nThe prophet Ezekiel’s vision of cherubim is depicted in the Book of Ezekiel in which they are portrayed as having four faces — one of an eagle, one a human, one an ox, and finally a lion.\n\nCherubim have straight legs, four wings (one set covers their body while the other is used for flying), and bull hooves for feet.\n\n\nCherubim – Art by Art by KelbremDusk\nSubscribe to the History Defined newsletter!\nGet updates on the latest posts and more from History Defined straight to your inbox.\n\nYour Email...\nSUBSCRIBE\n\nI consent to receiving emails and personalized ads.\nThis portrayal is nothing like what we imagine them to be. Cherubim, commonly known as cherubs, are depicted as chubby, beautiful, naked children with wings in art, as represented by Renaissance sculptors who revived the ancient practice of putti.\n\n\nThese depictions of Cherubim are often connected with divinity. These animal-human hybrids have also been associated with cupids, the diaper-clad chubby babies who are sometimes shown with a trumpet and arrow to symbolize romantic love.\n\nSome attribute this modern-day image to cupid-like Greek and Roman deities. On the other hand, the Biblical image is frequently attributed to cultural exchanges with ancient Babylonia, Egypt, and Syria, which explains their mixed appearance. \n\n\nSeraphim\nAccording to the Christian angel hierarchy, seraphim hold the highest rank. In art, the four-winged cherubim are painted in blue to symbolize the sky, while the six-winged seraphim are painted in red to symbolize fire.\n\nThe Hebrew term “Saraph” means “venomous desert snake” and “Seraph” means “to burn.” These terms are the two main historical influences on Seraphim’s name.\n\nThe Bible describes seraphim as having six wings, four of which are used to cover their heads and feet in front of God as a symbol of humility, and the remaining two are used to fly.\n\nThey are second in ranking in the angel hierarchy, with their sheer presence emitting holiness. And unlike the ophanim and cherubim, seraphim are not guard-angels. \n\n\nSeraphim\nSeraphim are described by prophet Isaiah as angelic beings that continually worship God by surrounding God’s throne and singing “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory” in unison when God approaches.\n\n\n\nWhile they’re the epitome of helpfulness and forgiveness, their appearance instills fear in the prophet.\n\nSeveral historians suggest that the description of the Seraphim’s wings and flames may have been based on the connection with Egyptian imagery and description of the cobra.\n\nOphanim\n“Their entire bodies, including their backs, hands, and wings, were full of eyes all around, as were their four wheels.” (Ezekiel 10:12)\n\n\n\nOphanim, or “the wheels,” are one of the strangest, most bizarre beings referenced in Ezekiel’s vision. They’re portrayed as beings made of interlocking gold wheels, with every wheel adorned with numerous sets of eyes on the exterior.\n\nThese wheels, however, do not change directions as the creatures move by floating in the skies. \n\n\nOphanim\nThe second book of Enoch refers to ophanim as “many-eyed ones.” They are sometimes also described as spheres or whirlwinds. They’re also classified as “thrones.”\n\n\n\nThere’s an interesting theory that the ophanim are the wheels attached to God’s chariot. Others, like former NASA scientist Jose F. Blumrich, believe ophanim might have been what we would consider a UFO sighting today.\n\nWhile they’re not considered angels in the Bible, the Jewish angelic hierarchy considers them responsible for guarding God’s throne and being the angels closest to God. This notion also coincides with beliefs held in different traditions.\n", "role": "user" }, { "content": " Introduction\n\nHow we picture angels:\n\n•Gilded armor\n•Beautiful wings\n•Glorious humanoids\n•All-righteous nature\n•Comfort, warmth, and solace\n\nWhere majestic angels appear:\n\n•Every piece of art\n•Every piece of literature\n\nBiblical angels are:\n•Strange\n•Terrifying\n•Inhuman\n\nOrigins of the word “angel”:\n•Derived from the Greek “Angelos”\n•Greek word is derived from the Hebrew “Mal’ akh”\n•“Mal’ akh” means “messenger”\n\nTypes of Angels\n\nMalakim\n•Appeared in Old Testament to carry out God’s judgment\n•Appeared as messengers in the New Testament\n•Closest to human beings\n•Are never mentioned as having wings in the Bible\n•Third-century Christian image of an angel is the earliest known image\n•This image depicts angels as wingless humans\n•Images of wings were imagined by artists during the late 4th century\n\nCherubim \n•Guarded the Garden of Eden against humans after Adam and Eve were removed\n•Depicted in Ezekiel\n•Have four faces\n•Faces are an ox, a lion, a human, and an eagle\n•Have straight legs\n•Have four wings\n•One set of wings covers the body\n•One is for flying\n•Have bull hooves instead of feet\n•Depictions in art as naked, chubby, beautiful winged children\n•This comes from Renaissance sculptors practicing putti\n•Cherubs in the art are associated with cupids\n•Modern image is similar to Greco-Roman deities\n•Biblical image attributed to ancient Egypt, Syria, and Babylon\n•Painted blue to symbolize the sky in art\n\nSeraphim\n•Highest-ranking angel in the Christian hierarchy\n•In art, painted red to symbolize fire\n•Six wings\n•Four wings cover feet and heads in humility when appearing before God\n•Two wings are used for flight\n•Influenced by the Hebrew “Saraph” meaning “venomous desert snake”\n•Influenced by the Hebrew “Seraph” meaning “to burn”\n•Their presence emits holiness\n•They are not guard angels\n•Described by Isaiah as continually worshiping God\n•They surround God’s throne and sing his glory in unison when God is near\n•Helpful\n•Forgiving\n•Instilled fear in the Prophet Isaiah\n•Some historians suggest a connection to Egyptian cobra imagery in the Seraphim’s flames and wings\n\nOphanim\n•Described as four wheels made of eyes all around in Ezekiel\n•Described as “many-eyed ones” in Enoch\n•Made of interlocking gold wheels\n•Each wheel has many sets of eyes on its exterior\n•Float in the sky\n•Wheels do not change direction as they move\n•Sometimes described as whirlwinds\n•Sometimes described as spheres\n•Classified as Thrones\n•Some theorize they are the wheels of God’s chariot\n•NASA scientist Jose F.

The starting places are strictly regulated, however, and there is a split quota between New York residents, Americans, and anyone else. This means your chances are slim if you are not from New York or America, but you can purchase tickets with a tour company, which may be the best way for non-USA citizens to attend.

Regularly drawing 40,000 participants, the Chicago marathon is a great way to push yourself to the limit and see one of the United States' most populous cities. It is a bit easier to get a ticket for the Chicago marathon with no qualifying times and an entry age of just 16. The registration closes at a max of 45,000. The Chicago marathon takes place in mid-October.\n\n3. Paris\nThe city of love, Paris, is an incredible place full of sights, smells, and sounds. In early April, it is also the host of the third-largest marathon in the world. About 40,000 descend on France's capital to test themselves in the streets where Napoleon used to walk. Entry differs from the USA marathons, with participants needing a sports health certificate signed by a doctor. You can apply online or in writing; the minimum age is 18.\n\n4. London\nA historical city like no other, London hosts one of the most sought-after marathons in mid-April each year and boasts around 35,000 crossing the finish line each year. Any foreigners will struggle to get a starting place for this famous race, with 7% as the reported number for how many foreigners finish each year.

The National Indian Health Board, a nonprofit advocacy group representing federally recognized tribes, recommends a commitment of $48 billion for the 2024 fiscal year to fully fund the health needs of Indigenous people. The current budget, $9.3 billion, is less than one-fifth of that.\n\nThe recent increases in funding are certainly a step in the right direction. But the factors contributing to the shorter lives of Native Americans started generations ago, and they are still reverberating among the youngest of us today.\n\nBoth from a professional standpoint – as well as one that is very personal to me and my ancestors – more work in this area cannot come soon enough.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Indigenous populations need more access to healthcare and better facilities.

Its construction was a result of efforts to control floods and provide water for irrigation to transform the American Southwest from an arid region into fertile cropland. Also, it was seen as a suitable solution for the water needs of the Los Angeles region and Southern California. Construction began in 1930, it was dedicated in 1935, and hydroelectric generators went online in 1937. The dam was built for $49 million then, and the power plant and generators cost an additional $71 million. The dam currently irritates over 1,500,000 acres of land, and provides water to over 16,000,000 people", "role": "assistant" } ]

Well, no that isn't quite right, I'm a cucumber right now but soon I will be a pickle.\n\nDays ago some friendly hands picked me up from my nice sunny patch in the field. I was about ready to come in, to be honest, the heat was getting to me and there were far too many rabbits lurking around. It was very nice to be carried inside, given a nice cool bath, and set aside for the night to sleep and relax.\n\nI woke up a bit later than usual still surrounded in the colander by my other cucumber friends. They were still sleeping so I did my best not to disturb them. They weren't a talkative bunch normally anyway. The sun was just starting to peak in through the curtains above the sink when a lady entered the room. The same lady who grabbed me from the patch yesterday. She seemed very friendly and nice.\n\nAt least I thought so until she picked me up, bowl and all, and gave me a big shake. What a way to rise and shine. I could hear the other cucumbers grumbling too. She transported us a few feet away to another part of the countertop. Then, the lady mixed a bunch of ingredients in a big pot on the stove and it started to smell good but it also tickled my nose a bit. Perhaps a bit too garlicky for my tastes. \n\nNext thing I knew she was picking me up again but this time she stuck me in a jar! I couldn't believe it, it was finally happening! It's the most exciting day in any gherkins life. A few of my other cucumber friends joined me and we all nestled up close to each other. It was very cozy and everyone had a nice view through the glass too.\n\nThen, the nice lady gave us a warm bath. It felt even nicer than the cool bath I had before. It had hints of dill and pepper and it covered me from my tippy toes all the way to the top of my head. She put a nice little roof over top sealing me in. And I knew that from this day forward I was a cucumber no more, now I was one proud pickle.", "role": "assistant" } ]
