I can’t tell you what to do! Honestly it’s best to just go tell them how much it bothers you. If that doesn’t help, go speak to your local law enforcement, and see what they can do. What happens with fireworks noise is really up to your neighbors and your local officials. I can’t make a judgement about whether or not it’s an ethical situation or not, since that depends on the law and other details.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Can you explain how the Amish live exactly? How do they make money or do anything everyone else in society does? ### Response:

The Amish choose to live a fairly simple, modest lifestyle, often without many of the modern trappings of technology or society. In general, they stick to a very traditional and old-fashioned way of living. Most of them own farms, where they produce various crops and/or livestock, which they then sell locally. Some work at local small businesses, some are self-employed, and many are also involved in various volunteer or charitable activities. Many are also quite familiar with modern technology and commonly use the internet, and some may also own a smartphone, laptop, or other computing device. They are very committed to their communities, and also to their faith, which plays a major role in their lives. I would recommend checking out some specific local communities to get a sense of the kinds of things they might be involved in, as well as some national organizations that are focused on helping the Amish community or other religious communities live a simple, traditional life.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Why did Georges think that Helene redirected her affections towards Walter Rogers? Papa Chibou (Paul Muni), the elderly caretaker of Musée Pratouchy, a Parisian wax museum, feels a strong kinship with the figures, particularly with that of Napoleon. He spots at the waxworks a romantic young couple, Georges (Russell Gleason), a lawyer, and Helene (Marguerite Churchill), the daughter of a stern judge (Lester Lonergan) who disapproves of his daughter's choice and forbids her to see Georges. Papa Chibou suggests to them that they can still stay in touch, without disobeying her father's directive not to speak with each other, by placing secret personal messages in the pockets of Napoleon's uniform. However, a missing letter and confusion in communication causes Georges to arrive at the mistaken conclusion that Helene has redirected her affections towards a foolish young man (Walter Rogers), who is unworthy of her and excessively preoccupied with his stylish personal appearance and elegant clothing. ### Response:

A missing letter and confusion in communication caused Georges to arrive at the mistaken conclusion that Helene has redirected her affections towards Walter Rogers (a foolish young man), who is unworthy of her and excessively preoccupied with his stylish personal appearance and elegant clothing.

His last match was in 2010, a fourth-round technical knockout loss to Edel Ruiz, which brought Adams’ record to 44-7-4 with 20 knockouts and 1 no contest.[2] In 2015, Adams was ordered to spend half a year behind bars after pleading guilty to being part of a group of people involved with drug trafficking, fraud and prostitution. Adams, who was a driver for the limousine company accused of the criminal activity, “admitted to playing a small role in the prostitution and drug dealing portions of the scheme.”[3] Adams now owns Bones Adams Gym in Las Vegas, a boxing training center. He played a key role in helping Blair Cobbs becoming a professional boxer.[4] As of September 2021, Adams is now training Amir Khan's first-ever signing and protege, Tal Singh, a former England amateur champion, who he is hoping to guide towards a historic world title triumph.[5] Adams also trains Shane Mosley Jr. in his Las Vegas gym.[6] ### Response:

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Why do high speeds create sonic booms? ### Response:

Sonic booms occur because when a fast-moving object passes through air, the air molecules are compressed in front of it and then compressed again behind it. The resulting disturbance propagates outwards like a shock wave, and the amplitude of this wave increases with the speed of the object. When an aircraft flies faster than the speed of sound, this shock wave is strong enough to create an audible boom.

Biscuits have more protein and calcium and vitamins, and less sugar. But pancakes contain more dietary fiber and a lot of vitamins, especially B vitamins.

If you’re eating either of these, I would recommend adding some butter, along with some vegetables, to get the full benefits.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Why aren't there seatbelts on buses or trains? ### Response:

The National Transportation Safety Board recommends that all buses and trains be equipped with seatbelts as a standard safety feature. However, many transit agencies haven’t followed through on this recommendation. There are a few reasons for this. One is that, historically, buses and trains have been fairly safe vehicles, and the need for seatbelts wasn’t as obvious. In addition, the buses and trains they have traditionally used are often very large vehicles, making seatbelts impractical. Also, because buses and trains are often used by the general public, there is often a lot of opposition to the idea of seatbelts from some groups, who worry about people feeling trapped or confined by their seatbelts, or from others who worry that seatbelts could be a safety hazard in themselves. This makes it hard for agencies to justify the expense of installing seatbelts on all their vehicles.

Display the results in a comma separated format. Pneumonia is an inflammatory condition of the lung primarily affecting the small air sacs known as alveoli.[3][14] Symptoms typically include some combination of productive or dry cough, chest pain, fever, and difficulty breathing.[15] The severity of the condition is variable.[15] Pneumonia is usually caused by infection with viruses or bacteria, and less commonly by other microorganisms.[a] Identifying the responsible pathogen can be difficult. Diagnosis is often based on symptoms and physical examination.[8] Chest X-rays, blood tests, and culture of the sputum may help confirm the diagnosis.[8] The disease may be classified by where it was acquired, such as community- or hospital-acquired or healthcare-associated pneumonia.[18] Risk factors for pneumonia include cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sickle cell disease, asthma, diabetes, heart failure, a history of smoking, a poor ability to cough (such as following a stroke), and a weak immune system.[5][7] Vaccines to prevent certain types of pneumonia (such as those caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria, linked to influenza, or linked to COVID-19) are available.[10] Other methods of prevention include hand washing to prevent infection, not smoking, and social distancing.[10] Treatment depends on the underlying cause.[19] Pneumonia believed to be due to bacteria is treated with antibiotics.[11] If the pneumonia is severe, the affected person is generally hospitalized.[19] Oxygen therapy may be used if oxygen levels are low.[11] ### Response:

cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sickle cell disease, asthma, diabetes, heart failure, a history of smoking, a poor ability to cough (such as following a stroke), a weak immune system

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: When does tropical cyclone season occur in the Southern Hemisphere? Summer is traditionally associated with hot or warm weather. In Mediterranean climates, it is also associated with dry weather, while in other places (particularly in Eastern Asia because of the monsoon) it is associated with rainy weather. The wet season is the main period of vegetation growth within the savanna climate regime. Where the wet season is associated with a seasonal shift in the prevailing winds, it is known as a monsoon. In the northern Atlantic Ocean, a distinct tropical cyclone season occurs from 1 June to 30 November. The statistical peak of the Atlantic hurricane season is 10 September. The Northeast Pacific Ocean has a broader period of activity, but in a similar timeframe to the Atlantic. The Northwest Pacific sees tropical cyclones year-round, with a minimum in February and March and a peak in early September. In the North Indian basin, storms are most common from April to December, with peaks in May and November. In the Southern Hemisphere, the tropical cyclone season runs from the start of November until the end of April with peaks in mid-February to early March. Thunderstorm season in the United States and Canada runs in the spring through summer but sometimes can run as late as October or even November in the fall. These storms can produce hail, strong winds and tornadoes, usually during the afternoon and evening. ### Response:

In the Southern Hemisphere, the tropical cyclone season runs from the start of November until the end of April with peaks in mid-February to early March.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Can you summarize this article in a paragraph? WASHINGTON, March 15 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate on Tuesday passed legislation that would make daylight saving time permanent starting in 2023, ending the twice-annual changing of clocks in a move promoted by supporters advocating brighter afternoons and more economic activity. The Senate approved the measure, called the Sunshine Protection Act, unanimously by voice vote. The House of Representatives, which has held a committee hearing on the matter, must still pass the bill before it can go to President Joe Biden to sign. The White House has not said whether Biden supports it. A spokesman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi declined to say if she supports the measure but said she was reviewing it closely. Senator Marco Rubio, one of the bill's sponsors, said supporters agreed the change would not take place until November 2023 after input from airlines and broadcasters. The change would help enable children to play outdoors later and reduce seasonal depression, according to supporters. "I know this is not the most important issue confronting America, but it's one of those issues where there's a lot of agreement," Rubio said. "If we can get this passed, we don't have to do this stupidity anymore." "Pardon the pun, but this is an idea whose time has come," he added. The National Association of Convenience Stores opposes the change, telling Congress this month "we should not have kids going to school in the dark." On Sunday, most of the United States resumed daylight saving time, moving ahead one hour. The United States will resume standard time in November. Architect of the Capitol workers wind Ohio Clock in Washington A man runs near the reflecting pool between the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument at sunrise on the National Mall in Washington Architect of the Capitol workers wind Ohio Clock in Washington Since 2015, about 30 states have introduced legislation to end the twice-yearly changing of clocks, with some states proposing to do it only if neighboring states do the same. The House Energy and Commerce committee held a hearing on the issue last week, where Representative Frank Pallone, the committee's chairman, said, "The loss of that one hour of sleep seems to impact us for days afterwards. It also can cause havoc on the sleeping patterns of our kids and our pets." Pallone backs ending the clock-switching but has not decided whether to support daylight or standard time as the permanent choice. At the hearing, Beth Malow, director of the Vanderbilt Sleep Division, argued daylight savings time makes it harder to be alert in the morning, saying it "is like living in the wrong time zone for almost eight months out of the year." Pallone cited a 2019 poll that found 71% of Americans prefer to no longer switch their clocks twice a year. Supporters say the change could prevent a slight uptick in car crashes that typically occurs around the time changes and point to studies showing a small increase in the rate of heart attacks and strokes soon after the time change. They argue the measure could help businesses such as golf courses that could draw more use with more evening daylight. "It has real repercussions on our economy and our daily lives," said Senator Ed Markey, another leading sponsor. Daylight saving time has been in place in nearly all of the United States since the 1960s after being first tried in 1918. Year-round daylight savings time was used during World War Two and adopted again in 1973 in a bid to reduce energy use because of an oil embargo and repealed a year later. The bill would allow Arizona and Hawaii, which do not observe daylight saving time, to remain on standard time as well as American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. ### Response:

Here’s a draft: The United States passed a law today that will eventually make daylight savings time permanent. It will only take effect in 2023, but thereafter no longer will Americans have to change their clocks twice a year, as is currently the case. Those who support it say it will provide more economic activity and lessen a yearly uptick in traffic accidents. Those who oppose it argue that it is difficult to adjust to the change and will make it more difficult for children to wake up and get to school on time.

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: How do you care for a dog who has had a tooth pulled? ### Response:

Hmm, that is a good question, here are some options for dog care after tooth extraction: * Consider a temporary muzzle for the dog, to prevent him from chewing in the tender area where the tooth was removed. You can also help prevent this by distracting the dog with special treats and toys. * Gently wipe away any drool or blood from the dog’s mouth with a damp cloth. Check the mouth frequently for swelling or bleeding, which could indicate an infection. * Inspect the dog’s gums daily to make sure they are healthy and pink. If they appear gray or darker in color, this could indicate infection or other problems, and you should consult a vet immediately. * Apply a non-medicated antiseptic or antibiotic spray (available at health food stores and pet stores) to the gum area 3-4 times a day.

The first skill to learn in basketball is ball handling. The ability to dribble with your right and left hands is key. Most people are either right or left handed. If a player is right handed, they should spend the majority of their time dribbling with their left hand (weak hand). The next thing to focus is on shooting. Start with the Mikan drill. This drill helps with developing shooting with both your right and left hand. This will help when you begin shooting layups. Gradually, start taking shots a little farther away from the basket. Only move backwards when you consistently shoot a high percentage of made shots. Finally, you want to focus with movement without the ball. This includes proper cuts when you are an offensive player without possession of the ball. You also want to practice proper positioning on defense. Practice good defensive positioning when you guard the person with and without the ball.

Lee was born at home on 16 September 1923, the first child to Lee Chin Koon, a Semarang born Singaporean,[19] and Chua Jim Neo, at 92 Kampong Java Road in Singapore, then part of the British Empire.[20] Both of Lee's parents were English-educated third-generation Straits Chinese,[21] with his paternal side being of Hakka descent from Dabu County.[22][23] He was named 'Kuan Yew',[a] meaning 'light and brightness', alternately meaning 'bringing great glory to one's ancestors'. Lee's paternal grandfather Lee Hoon Leong, who was described as "especially westernised", had worked on British ships as a purser, and hence gave Lee the Western name 'Harry' As prime minister from 1959 to 1990, Lee presided over many of Singapore's advancements. He oversaw Singapore's transformation from an island nation with a high illiteracy rate and no natural resources into a developed country with a high-income economy within a single generation, commonly termed (from his autobiography) as 'From the third world to the first world'.[305][306][307][308] Singapore's gross national product per capita (GNP) rose from $1,240 in 1959 to $18,437 in 1990. The unemployment rate in Singapore dropped from 13.5% in 1959 to 1.7% in 1990. External trade increased from $7.3 billion in 1959 to $205 billion in 1990. In other areas, the life expectancy at birth for Singaporeans rose from 65 years at 1960 to 74 years in 1990. The population of Singapore increased from 1.6 million in 1959 to 3 million in 1990. The number of public flats in Singapore rose from 22,975 in 1959 (then under the Singapore Improvement Trust) to 667,575 in 1990. The Singaporean literacy rate increased from 52% in 1957 to 90% in 1990. Telephone lines per 100 Singaporeans increased from 3 in 1960 to 38 in 1990. Visitor arrivals to Singapore rose from 100,000 in 1960 to 5.3 million in 1990.[309] ### Response:

Lee Kuan Yew was born on 16 September 1923. He served as the inaugural Prime Minister of Singapore from 1959 to 1990. His most famous accomplishment in office was overseeing Singapore's transformation from an island nation with a high illiteracy rate and no natural resources into a developed country with a high-income economy within a single generation, commonly termed (from his autobiography) as 'From the third world to the first world.

Ah, I see, so it sounds like your children are handling the organization of their own clothing. That can be challenging, especially as they get older, but it’s also very helpful and important for them to have to make decisions like these on their own. Your job as a parent is to allow them to get into a habit of organization, but not to micromanage the outcome, so they feel like it’s their own choice. So just make sure to be supportive of the choices they make, but otherwise let them know they’re on their own.

Place them in a bullet list and separate name and year with a comma Pink Floyd are an English rock band formed in London in 1965. Gaining an early following as one of the first British psychedelic groups, they were distinguished by their extended compositions, sonic experimentation, philosophical lyrics and elaborate live shows. They became a leading band of the progressive rock genre, cited by some as the greatest progressive rock band of all time. Pink Floyd were founded in 1965 by Syd Barrett (guitar, lead vocals), Nick Mason (drums), Roger Waters (bass guitar, vocals), and Richard Wright (keyboards, vocals). Under Barrett's leadership, they released two charting singles and the successful debut album The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967). The guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour joined in January 1968; Barrett left in April 1968 due to deteriorating mental health. Waters became the primary lyricist and thematic leader, devising the concepts behind Pink Floyd's most successful albums, The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977) and The Wall (1979). The musical film based on The Wall, Pink Floyd – The Wall (1982), won two BAFTA Awards. Pink Floyd also composed several film scores. Following personal tensions, Wright left Pink Floyd in 1981, followed by Waters in 1985. Gilmour and Mason continued as Pink Floyd, rejoined later by Wright. They produced the albums A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) and The Division Bell (1994), backed by major tours, before entering a long hiatus. In 2005, all but Barrett reunited for a performance at the global awareness event Live 8. Barrett died in 2006, and Wright in 2008. The last Pink Floyd studio album, The Endless River (2014), was based on unreleased material from the Division Bell recording sessions. In 2022, Gilmour and Mason reformed Pink Floyd to release the song "Hey, Hey, Rise Up!" in protest of the Russo-Ukrainian War. By 2013, Pink Floyd had sold more than 250 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling music artists of all time. The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall were inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame,[1] and these albums and Wish You Were Here are among the best-selling albums of all time. Four Pink Floyd albums topped the US Billboard 200, and five topped the UK Albums Chart. Pink Floyd's hit singles include "See Emily Play" (1967), "Money" (1973), "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" (1979), "Not Now John" (1983), "On the Turning Away" (1987) and "High Hopes" (1994). They were inducted into the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. In 2008, Pink Floyd were awarded the Polar Music Prize in Sweden for their contribution to modern music. ### Response:

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: List the best-known types of Intellectual property. List the results in comma separated format. Intellectual property (IP) is a category of property that includes intangible creations of the human intellect.[1][2] There are many types of intellectual property, and some countries recognize more than others.[3][4][5][6][7] The best-known types are patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets. The modern concept of intellectual property developed in England in the 17th and 18th centuries. The term "intellectual property" began to be used in the 19th century, though it was not until the late 20th century that intellectual property became commonplace in most of the world's legal systems.[8] The main purpose of intellectual property law is to encourage the creation of a wide variety of intellectual goods.[9] To achieve this, the law gives people and businesses property rights to the information and intellectual goods they create, usually for a limited period of time. This gives economic incentive for their creation, because it allows people to benefit from the information and intellectual goods they create, and allows them to protect their ideas and prevent copying.[9] These economic incentives are expected to stimulate innovation and contribute to the technological progress of countries, which depends on the extent of protection granted to innovators.[10] The intangible nature of intellectual property presents difficulties when compared with traditional property like land or goods. Unlike traditional property, intellectual property is "indivisible", since an unlimited number of people can "consume" an intellectual good without its being depleted.Additionally, investments in intellectual goods suffer from appropriation problems: Landowners can surround their land with a robust fence and hire armed guards to protect it, but producers of information or literature can usually do little to stop their first buyer from replicating it and selling it at a lower price. Balancing rights so that they are strong enough to encourage the creation of intellectual goods but not so strong that they prevent the goods' wide use is the primary focus of modern intellectual property law.[12] ### Response:

patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: Why is Dunkin' Donuts so popular? ### Response:

Dunkin Donuts is a coffee and donut franchise with particularly high concentration in the Northeast United States, which is colloquially referred to as New England. Although the quality of the coffee is mediocre and the donuts tend to taste like plastic, Dunkin' Donuts (now re-branded as Dunkin') carries a special place in the heart of many New Englanders. Perhaps it's the the fact that you are rarely more than 10 miles away from a Dunkin' franchise at any given time, or perhaps it is their blatant obsession with New England professional sports teams. Either way, Dunkin' has established itself as a household name and weekday staple for many coffee drinkers in the frigid Northeast.

Here’s a quick summary of Hong Kong’s history from Wikipedia. A lot of people know Hong Kong for its colonial past, its ultra-modern skyline, or as a source of Cantonese cuisine, however less known is Hong Kong’s unique heritage of Chinese culture and British rule. The region’s history has been one of Asian and European culture. The territory has always been an international city; its location makes it an entrepôt between the West and East, North and South, and modern architecture merges Western styles with Eastern aesthetics. In the United Nations, the territory of Hong Kong is treated as an external territory and is under the administration of the United Kingdom and is represented by the United Kingdom in international affairs. Hong Kong was originally a fishing village. Around the second century A.D., the Han Dynasty made a prefecture of Guangdong province, at the mouth of the Shenjiang River (the water is still referred to as "Guangdong's gate" to this day) called Xinan. There were three major economic development periods of Hong Kong’s history: the early 18th century and mid-19th century when Hong Kong was a prosperous riverine port of the

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request. ### Instruction: What are Uncontacted peoples? Uncontacted peoples are groups of indigenous peoples living without sustained contact with neighbouring communities and the world community. Groups who decide to remain uncontacted are referred to as indigenous peoples in voluntary isolation. Legal protections make estimating the total number of uncontacted peoples challenging, but estimates from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in the UN and the non-profit group Survival International point to between 100 and 200 uncontacted peoples numbering up to 10,000 individuals total. A majority of uncontacted peoples live in South America, particularly northern Brazil, where the Brazilian government and National Geographic estimate between 77 and 84 tribes reside. Knowledge of uncontacted peoples comes mostly from encounters with neighbouring indigenous communities and aerial footage. ### Response:

Uncontacted peoples generally refers to indigenous peoples who have remained largely isolated to the present day, maintaining their traditional lifestyles and functioning mostly independently from any political or governmental entities. However, European exploration and colonization during the early modern period brought indigenous peoples worldwide into contact with colonial settlers and explorers. As such, most indigenous groups have had some form of contact with other peoples. The term "uncontacted" therefore refers to a lack of sustained contact with the majority of non-indigenous society at the present time. The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights refers to uncontacted peoples as "indigenous peoples in voluntary isolation." These groups are defined by their general rejection of contact with anyone outside of their own people. This definition also includes groups who have previously had sustained contact with the majority non-indigenous society but have chosen to return to isolation and no longer maintain contact. As such uncontacted peoples are understood not as living in an anachronistic state of nature but rather as contemporaries of modernity. A 2009 United Nations report also classified "peoples in initial contact" as sharing the same characteristics but beginning to regularly communicate with and integrate into mainstream society. To highlight their agency in staying uncontacted or isolated, international organizations emphasize calling them "indigenous peoples in isolation" or "in voluntary isolation". Otherwise they have also been called "hidden peoples" or "uncontacted tribes". Historically European colonial ideas of uncontacted peoples, and their colonial claims over them, were informed by the imagination of and search for Prester John, king of a wealthy Christian realm in isolation, as well as the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, identifying uncontacted peoples as "lost tribes". International organizations have highlighted the importance of protecting indigenous peoples' environment and lands, the importance of protecting them from exploitation or abuse, and the importance of no contact in order to prevent the spread of modern diseases. Historic exploitation and abuse at the hands of the majority group have led many governments to give uncontacted people their lands and legal protection. Many indigenous groups live on national forests or protected grounds, such as the Vale do Javari in Brazil or the North Sentinel Island in India. Much of the contention over uncontacted peoples has stemmed from governments' desire to extract natural resources. In the 1960s and 1970s, Brazil's federal government attempted to assimilate and integrate native groups living in the Amazon jungle in order to use their lands for farming. Their efforts were met with mixed success and criticism until, in 1987, Brazil created the Department of Isolated Indians inside of FUNAI (Fundação Nacional do Índio), Brazil's Indian Agency. FUNAI was successful in securing protected lands which have allowed certain groups to remain relatively uncontacted until the present day. A different outcome occurred in Colombia when the Nukak tribe of indigenous people was contacted by an evangelical group. The tribe was receptive to trade and eventually moved in order to have closer contact with settlers. This led to an outbreak of respiratory infections, violent clashes with narco-traffickers, and the death of hundreds of the Nukak, more than half of the tribe. Eventually, the Colombian government forcibly relocated the tribe to a nearby town where they received food and government support but were reported as living in poverty. The threats to the Nukak tribe are generally shared by all peoples in isolation, particularly the outside world's desire to exploit their lands. This can include lumbering, ranching and farming, land speculation, oil prospecting and mining, and poaching. For example, then Peruvian President Alan García claimed in 2007 that uncontacted groups were only a "fabrication of environmentalists bent on halting oil and gas exploration". As recently as 2016, a Chinese subsidiary mining company in Bolivia ignored signs that they were encroaching on uncontacted tribes, and attempted to cover it up. In addition to commercial pursuits, other people such as missionaries can inadvertently cause great damage. It was those threats, combined with attacks on their tribe by illegal cocaine traffickers, that led a group of Acre Indians to make contact with a village in Brazil and subsequently with the federal government in 2014. This behaviour suggests that many tribes are aware of the outside world and choose not to make contact unless motivated by fear or self-interest. Satellite images suggest that some tribes intentionally migrate away from roads or logging operations in order to remain secluded. Indigenous rights activists have often advocated that indigenous peoples in isolation be left alone, saying that contact will interfere with their right to self-determination as peoples. On the other hand, experience in Brazil suggests isolating peoples might want to have trading relationships and positive social connections with others, but choose isolation out of fear of conflict or exploitation. The Brazilian state organization National Indian Foundation (FUNAI) in collaboration with anthropological experts has chosen to make controlled initial contact with tribes. The organization operates 15 trading posts throughout protected territory where tribes can trade for metal tools and cooking instruments. The organization also steps in to prevent some conflicts and deliver vaccinations. However, FUNAI has been critical of political will in Brazil, reporting that it only received 15% of its requested budget in 2017. In 2018, after consensus among field agents, FUNAI released videos and images of several tribes under their protection. Although the decision was criticized, the director of the Isolated Indian department, Bruno Pereira, responded that "The more the public knows and the more debate around the issue, the greater the chance of protecting isolated Indians and their lands". He shared that the organization has been facing mounting political pressure to open up lands to commercial companies. He also justified the photography by explaining that FUNAI was investigating a possible massacre against the Flechieros tribe. Recognizing the myriad problems with contact, the United Nations Human Rights Council in 2009 and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in 2013 introduced guidelines and recommendations that included a right to choose self-isolation. There have been reports of human safaris in India's Andaman Islands and in Peru, where tourism companies attempt to help tourists see uncontacted or recently contacted peoples. This practice is controversial.

Sure! Here is a short story about a zombie outbreak at a school: The school auditorium was packed full of students. Everyone was complaining about having to come to the assembly during review week, when they really should be studying for finals. But Richmond District High School had a tradition of holding a big end of the year assembly, and no one was going to miss it, no matter how jam packed with information the upcoming convocation was. At 9AM sharp, Principal Gustafson strode up to the stage and began his welcome speech. Everyone listened attentively, since the principal was an experienced and well-respected leader who usually had some interesting and inspiring things to say. But after only a few minutes, the principal stopped talking mid-sentence, and abruptly began shambling around the stage, growling and moaning. Everyone was shocked and confused, since this was highly unusual behavior for the principal. But as soon as the confusion cleared, the stunned students realized with horror that something truly terrible was happening - their principal had turned into a zombie! Almost immediately, more bodies began lurching across the stage, as several students who had been sitting in the front row, waiting to accept awards, suddenly turned into zombies and began attacking the other students. Chaos erupted, as students began fleeing for the exits. But many were too slow and were viciously attacked by the ravenous zombie horde, who quickly formed into a pack and began hunting down the remaining students. Exiting the auditorium, the students ran straight into a swarm of zombies that had been released from the biology classroom next door by another pack of bloodthirsty zombies. The fleeing students, including our unfortunate narrator, were quickly overpowered and devoured by the ever-increasing number of ravenous zombies, who had quickly spread throughout the school and would soon leave no survivors in their wake...
