### Instruction:
I have lots of valuable collectibles and think that they are too valuable to be kept at home. Where do you think I should put them for safekeeping?
### Response:
| Ah yes, this is certainly a challenging decision. There are many options for secure storage, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Here are some of the most common options:
1) Banks: Banks offer very secure storage, but are costly and may impose specific requirements and fees for the items that you want to store.
2) Self-storage facilities: Self-storage facilities are reasonably secure but with potentially lower security than a bank. They can also be cheaper in terms of fees, and you have more flexibility in terms of what you want to store and for how long.
3) Insurance safe deposit boxes: Private safe deposit boxes in a bank can be an economical and secure option, but require that you pay for a regularly renewed insurance policy.
4) Private storage units: Private storage units are cheaper than self-storage facilities, but the security may be lower.
5) Home storage: While this option is obviously the cheapest, it is definitely the least secure and may not be appropriate for valuable items.
I hope this information is helpful! Good luck with your storage decision!

### Instruction:
What is the difference between speed and velocity?
### Response:
| Speed and velocity are different terms. Speed is a measurement of distance over time. Velocity is a measurement of distance over time in a direction. Speed is scalar and can only be positive. Velocity is a vector and can either be positive or negative. For example, an object moving at a speed of 50 km/h tells us only how quickly it is moving but not its direction. An object with a velocity of +50 km/h tells us its speed and that it is moving forwards. Conversely, an object with a velocity of -50 km/h tells us its speed and that it is moving backward. |

### Instruction:
How do I stop talking over people?
### Response:
| It’s good to listen to other people and try to hear what they’re saying. It’s important to give them a chance to speak and express their opinions and ideas. One way to avoid interrupting them is to keep your mouth shut and listen while they’re talking. You can also try paraphrasing what they say -- summarizing what you think they’re saying and asking if you understood them correctly. This will help you make sure you’ve heard them properly, and it will also give them a chance to correct you if you got something wrong. You can also try asking questions or making comments after a pause, instead of interrupts them. And finally, if you have something to say, you can just wait your turn -- chances are there will be a good opportunity to share your thoughts soon. I hope these tips will help you be a better listener!

### Instruction:
The myth of the samurai , has always been a bit curious. Can you tell me more about what a samurai is historically?
### Response:
| Samurai were members of the elite warrior class in medieval Japan. They were traditionally soldiers and served as the rulers’ personal bodyguards, but they also often engaged in farming, art, literature, and other pursuits. Samurai were supposed to embody a set of honorable traits, such as bravery and integrity, and to perform great deeds in service to their lord. They also practiced the Japanese art of swordsmanship, often training from a very young age in martial

### Instruction:
How do I recognize signs of spousal abuse in a friend?
### Response:
| I think it can be really tricky to make these judgements and always remember that it’s important not to blame your friend for being in that situation. That said, here are some things to watch for, and if you see them a lot, then you may have a reason to be concerned. Try to keep in mind that you shouldn’t treat your friend any differently based on this information.
1. If the person you suspect of abusing your friend is a romantic partner, or someone with close emotional ties, this is always an important factor to consider. When relationships turn abusive, those relationships are often unstable to begin with, so you should be aware of what you might be getting yourself into, if you decide to intervene.
2. Physical abuse and bruises, signs of a fistfight, broken bones. These may also point to something more extreme.
3. Sleep deprivation, staying up all night, nightmares, unusual behaviour, difficulties making decisions, unusual confusion. If they sound like they’re having trouble waking up, or are having trouble concentrating, or are acting strangely, that’s something to watch for. Maybe they’re tired or high on drugs.

### Instruction:
I'm doing a report on blue whales. Can you give me some facts about them?
### Response:
| Sure! Blue whales are gigantic, in fact they are the largest animals that have ever lived. Adult blue whales are 30-40 meters long [100 feet, or 60 yards], and can reach a mass of over 150 tons! They are eating giants, as they consume over 4 tons of krill and plankton each day. Perhaps surprisingly, their life expectancy is only about 70 years. Blue whales are found in all the world’s oceans, but tend to stay in cooler polar regions in summer, migrating to warmer waters in winter. Despite their huge size, they are relatively docile, as they lack the teeth needed to kill prey. Having such huge bodies and long, slender necks helps them to suck in large amounts of water and filter out the krill and other tiny prey. Blue whales are capable of producing a variety of different vocalizations, many of which are remarkably complex. This may be the first mammals capable of producing what’s known as echolocation, a way of navigating using sonar.

### Instruction:
What is safety glass?
### Response:
| Safety glass is a type of glass that is designed to be much more resistant to breakage, compared to normal glass. Safety glass usually consists of two thin sheets of glass with a single layer of plastic in between as a layer of protection. This makes the overall strength of the glass much higher, and greatly reduces the risk of breakage in most situations. In many cases, safety glass can be used as a substitute for regular glass and other more expensive materials in windows, windshields, storefronts, and other structures that require safety glass. Safety glass is also used to reinforce other types of glass in an effort to reduce the risk of breakage.

### Instruction:
How do teeth whitening strips work?
### Response:
| They contain a chemical called hydrogen peroxide. The strips are applied to the teeth and you may also drink hydrogen peroxide directly, but usually it’s applied to the teeth. When it comes into contact with the teeth, it interacts with oxygen and produces free radicals. These free radicals go to the surface of the tooth and oxidize it, which whitens the tooth.

### Instruction:
I want to build an emergency food supply.
### Response:
| That’s a very prudent and positive goal. It’s certainly important to have adequate stores of emergency food and water in place in the event of a disaster or emergency evacuation, since these supplies are vital to ensure your physical well-being during a challenging time. There are a number of considerations to keep in mind while putting together your emergency food supply, including appropriate food types and quantities, shelf life, and storage requirements. It’s also helpful to develop a plan for evacuating and accessing your emergency supplies in case of emergency, so as to ensure these supplies remain usable and readily accessible when needed. Overall, establishing an emergency food supply is an excellent way to improve your family’s overall preparedness and continuity of meals and nourishment during stressful times.

### Instruction:
What does a constable do?
### Response:
| Here’s a quick primer from Wikipedia:
A constable is a rank of legal and law enforcement systems in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The position existed in medieval England, and was made obsolete by the introduction of the rank of chief constable.
A constable's primary duty is to protect the peace and provide assistance to the courts. Constables are appointed by and serve at the pleasure of a local government.
Constables are the primary law enforcement officers in most civil law jurisdictions, especially in municipal police services and law enforcement services in rural and unincorporated areas, as well as for the primary law enforcement for certain unincorporated areas of incorporated municipalities. Most law enforcement agencies in the United States have a uniformed division, often referred to as the "patrol division", that is supervised by a uniformed officer, usually a constable, and typically a police officer.

### Instruction:
What is a good way to protect myself from loose dogs when I am on a walk in the neighborhood?
### Response:
| Well, the most important thing to do is be aware of your surroundings. Make sure you’re not suddenly surrounded by a pack of dogs, and also make sure you’re not coming too close to any dog that might be loose in the neighborhood. If you see a dog off its leash, try to move out of the dog’s way and make sure you don’t get too close. If you are out for a walk, it can help to carry a canister of pepper spray or bear mace with you for safety. Pepper spray is available at many stores, or you can get a keychain canister of pepper spray, or a larger pepper spray canister that can be attached to your keychain or to a belt or backpack. The pepper spray is a non-lethal option for personal safety. The bear mace is a non-toxic option for

### Instruction:
Without directly quoting from the text, give me a summary of the second home controversy in Gwynedd, Wales.
Controversy erupted in mid-winter 2001 when Seimon Glyn, Gwynedd Council's housing committee chairman and Plaid Cymru member, voiced frustration over "English immigrants" moving into traditionally Welsh speaking communities.[8] Glyn was commenting on a report underscoring the dilemma of rocketing house prices outstripping what locals could pay, with the report warning that "...traditional Welsh communities could die out..." as a consequence.[9]
In 2001 nearly a third of all purchases of properties in Gwynedd were by buyers from out of the county, with some communities reporting as many as a third of local homes used as holiday homes.[10][11] Holiday home owners typically spend less than six months of the year in the local community.
The issue of locals being priced out of the local housing market is common to many rural communities throughout Britain, but in Wales the added dimension of language further complicates the issue, as many new residents do not learn the Welsh language.[10][12][13][14]
Concerned for the Welsh language under these pressures, Glyn said "Once you have more than 50% of anybody living in a community that speaks a foreign language, then you lose your indigenous tongue almost immediately".[15] His comments attracted strong criticism of Plaid Cymru from other national parties.[15]
By spring 2002 both the Snowdonia National Park (Welsh: Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri) and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park (Welsh: Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro) authorities began limiting second home ownership within the parks, following the example set by Exmoor.[16] According to planners in Snowdonia and Pembroke applicants for new homes must demonstrate a proven local need or the applicant must have strong links with the area.
### Response:
| By the end of 2001, as much as a third of the homes in the Gwynedd county was owned by owners not using these houses as a primary home. The local community was concerned that the use of the Welsh language was at risk because a growing amount of owners did only speak English, not Welsh. To combat this phenomenon, two national parks in the county started limiting second home ownership in the area, requiring proof of local need or strong ties in the area. |

### Instruction:
have you ever heard of racetam
### Response:
| Yeah, racetam is the collective name for several smart drugs (nootropics). They were originally developed for medical purposes (such as Alzheimer’s), but are now more often considered for uses like improved memory, better learning and enhanced attention. They’re relatively safe when used responsibly, but if you don’t currently have a medical condition that requires them, and are just taking them for recreational purposes, please make sure you understand the risks and don’t take anything you haven’t checked with your doctor.

### Response:
| It sounds to me like you’re referring to the specific recipe here: https://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-make-oatmeal-broth-soup-for-lunch-159870 Here’s a very quick translation of that recipe, to see what it says you do:
“To make it, simply toss the oats, garlic, ginger, cinnamon, and vegetable stock in a pan, and simmer on low heat until the oatmeal is soft and the vegetables are fully cooked. Stir every few minutes to ensure that it doesn’t stick to the bottom. Add salt and pepper to taste.”

### Instruction:
Can you explain the concept of electrical induction?
### Response:
| Sure, induction is a basic property of electric circuits whereby the application of electrical energy to a conductor creates an induced electrical current in another nearby conductor. This phenomenon arises naturally from the concepts of electric charge and magnetic fields, whereby electric charges tend to experience a force when placed in a changing magnetic field. Thus, when a changing electrical current is applied to one conductor in a circuit, this generates a changing magnetic field around the conductor, which in turn induces an electrical current in another nearby conductor. This phenomenon is fundamental to the operation of many electrical devices and technologies, including generators, transformers, and motors.

How do you lighten a dark neck?
### Response:
| This is a very general question that requires some specific context in order to provide an appropriate answer. In general, the primary factors that impact skin tone and pigmentation are genetics, exposure to sunlight, and environmental factors such as pollution. There are a wide variety of products specifically designed for skin lightening, however these are not generally considered safe or effective for long-term use as they often contain strong chemical components which can be harmful to the skin over time. In general, the most effective and healthy approach to lightening skin tone is to reduce exposure to environmental factors that lead to darkening of the skin, and to use sun protection whenever outside. Hope this helps!

How do I get my dog to heel?
### Response:
| To get your dog to heel, begin by using a firm but calm voice. Speak in a clear tone of voice, and enunciate every word. Your dog should be able to hear you from anywhere in the room, and understand what you're saying. Use the command “heel” to get your dog to walk beside you, with his shoulders, hip, and elbow touching your left leg. As you walk, move at a steady pace. Give regular feedback, such as a pat on the head or a click of your tongue, when your dog is walking correctly beside you. For more tips on teaching your dog to heel, visit the ASPCA website.

What are signs of being spiritually ascended? Seems many religions, aspire to this.
### Response:
| Sure! It means that the person feels like they have more peace in their mind, and also they feel more harmony with the world around them. They may also be more mentally alert, less prone to impulsive reactions, less afraid, and more conscious of other people’s perspectives. It’s hard to say how such a person would act in the world. I suppose it’s fair to say that someone who feels spiritually ascended might have more clarity, empathy, and compassion.

### Response:
| That can be tricky, especially if your professors haven’t provided much guidance! I recommend starting by looking up some general information about your topic on academic databases, which can give you some useful background information about the discipline you’re studying. Also, you’ll want to look for scholarly sources that cite relevant literature on your topic. It’s often also a good idea to look at any available lecture notes and textbooks on the topic, which may give you some useful pointers.

### Response:

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that women can have abortions, and that restrictions on access to abortions are unconstitutional. However, efforts continue by anti-abortion activists to restrict access to abortion services through laws and policies that limit women’s access to sexual health care and reproductive choice.

How do you properly use a microscope?
### Response:
| In order to properly use a microscope, you first need to make sure the microscope is set up correctly. The light source should be positioned correctly, and the stage should be precisely adjusted so that the sample you're viewing is situated in the correct position under the microscope's objective lens. Then you need to make sure that your sample is prepared correctly. The sample should be suspended in a transparent medium, such as water, and you'll want to make sure the sample is flat and smooth, and that it is the correct size for viewing. Make sure the slide you're viewing it on is also clean and flat. Then you want to make sure the microscope is properly focused on your sample. Start by adjusting the zoom control until you have a large enough field of view to see your sample clearly, but without making it appear too large. Then you want to focus the microscope by moving the objective lens in the stage until the sample appears clearly focused. Make sure you're seeing a clear image of your sample, not fuzzy, nor overly enlarged, but a nice, sharp image. Then you want to make sure the microscope is properly aligned, and that it's not rocking back and forth or tilting in any way.

What are some good careers for competitive people?
### Response:
| I wouldn’t say that one career or another is appropriate for competitive people specifically. But here are some examples of professional fields that may be challenging and rewarding for people who like a competitive work environment: business, sports, medicine, coaching or teaching, and sales, as well as many other professions. Competitive people often perform well in these professions, and they often enjoy them, because their high energy level and their strong desire to prove themselves throughout their career make them able to thrive in high-competition environments. Another benefit of competitive people is that often they can feel energized and focused by the high-pressure environment of competitive work, although sometimes they may find this level of stress too overwhelming or tiring for long term success.

### Response:
| A message of congratulations or best wishes sent to someone after they have accomplished a noteworthy feat or milestone is known as a congratulatory message. Congratulatory messages can be conveyed via a variety of media, including social media posts, emails, cards, emails, and text messages.

Depending on the relationship between the sender and the recipient as well as the type of accomplishment being honoured, the tone and style of a congrats message may change. Depending on the congratulations, some remarks could be formal and professional. |

### Instruction:
How do I figure out my ideal weight?
### Response:
| There are many different ways to think about "ideal weight," based on your own body type and preferences! But in general, people tend to gain weight over time, so while overweight and obesity are common, some people will feel better with a little more weight, or a little less. One tool to estimate your ideal weight is the BMI, which is a way of characterizing total body size. In general, people are considered overweight if their BMI is between 25 and 29.9, people are considered obese if their BMI is 30 or higher, and people are considered underweight or "malnourished" if their BMI is below 18.5.
Another important consideration is personal preferences. As an example, women who have large waists and a lot of weight around their hips are considered likely to be more healthy when they're at least slightly overweight, and farther from their "ideal weight," compared to women who have smaller waists and less curvy bodies. This is because carrying more weight (called "weight-bearing" by doctors) is somewhat protective against bone loss, osteoporosis, and other health conditions in women. Some people prefer to carry a little extra weight on their body, while others may want to stay

-It’s very tough to get a wrestling job, there are tens of thousands of applicants for a few hundred spots
-Talent scouts sometimes scout indie wrestling shows
-There are talent “development” programs for teens
-A lot of trainees get stuck in developmental programs, or aren’t ready for the pros
-Applicants should build a portfolio of wrestling matches, although this is not a legal requirement
-The application process is very challenging and requires a lot of training

I'm trying to get fit and want to learn how to do lunges at home. Can you provide me information on how to do lunges correctly?
### Response:
| Sure! Lunges are a lower body strength and flexibility exercise, that can be useful for running and other sports. To do a lunge, you take a step forward with one leg, then lower yourself down while bending your knee, as if you were trying to touch your knee to the ground. You then push off from the ground with your front leg, and step forward with the same leg. Repeat this for the other leg.

What would be a good country to study abroad in?
### Response:
| Interesting question! There are many different advantages and disadvantages to studying abroad in different regions, so I think it’s really important for you to carefully research and compare many different options. The results of your research will determine some key considerations for you, which I can help you think through.
First, you’ll need to consider your interests and what you want to study. There are many different countries around the world that are popular and well-known for particular types of studies, and I encourage you to think about your own preferences ahead of time in case this makes your decision process easier. For example, global business is commonly studied in the USA, while traditional dancing and music are often studied in the UK. Brazil is a popular destination for students who want to study art engineering, while European countries are often a good choice for those who want to learn foreign languages and study romance languages, literature, or philosophy.
Next, you should learn more about the academic opportunities in different countries you’re considering, including the quality of academics in particular institutions. You may also want to look at student visa requirements, the treatment of foreign students in that country, and the availability of affordable studying abroad programs there.

Why do Olympic athletes start so young, and are there issues with abuse in Olympic training?
### Response:
| The high level of training and intense focus that Olympic athletes put into their sport requires starting at a young age, around 12 or 13, in order for their bodies and brains to be developed enough to effectively practice and perform at a high competitive level. There have been well-documented cases of abuse and toxicity within Olympic sports, including sexual abuse in gymnastics, U.S. swim teams and weightlifting programs and traumatic hazing in wrestling. The Olympic Movement has taken strong actions to respond to harassment and misconduct and to hold responsible members accountable, and works hard to create safe and inclusive environments for athletes of all ages to train and compete.

Can you give me a thorough explanation of how water goes through reverse osmosis?
### Response:
| Sanitation is a very important issue to address in areas with limited water supplies, as it is often the most basic need for survival. There are a number of different methods for cleaning water which each have unique advantages and drawbacks. One of the most commonly used methods is reverse osmosis, a method of filtering out suspended particles in water or other aqueous liquids based on the size of the particles in question. For example, reverse osmosis is commonly used to filter out salt water in order to make it suitable for potable purposes.
To achieve this, water makes contact with a membrane which has very tiny holes (or pores) which only allow a certain size of aqueous particle to pass through. Various techniques are available for filtering out these particles, including reverse osmosis.
In reverse osmosis, water is forced against the membrane under a slightly pressurized state so as to force particles through the pores. The process relies on separation between water molecules, which are attracted to each other. For these water molecules, the application of force against the membrane causes them to separate at an extra tiny pore in the membrane, but larger particles are unable to pass through this opening. As such, water molecules are only able to pass through the membrane in the direction against the force being applied to it, while the larger particles (including certain types of microorganisms) remain suspended in the filter, leaving a very clean supernatant with the water.
Reverse osmosis is a very reliable and versatile filtration method, and it is often used in water purification systems for home use and other applications. The filter only needs to be changed periodically, depending on the capacity of the filter for handling particles, and the effectiveness of it also varies depending on the specific size of the particles one needs to remove.

How can I construct a resume that will stand out among other applicants for a new job?
### Response:
| Resumes are a formal document, that provide relevant information on a job applicant’s history, skills, and qualifications. How a resume is presented varies by country and industry, but the purpose of a resume is to convince the employer that the applicant has the necessary qualifications for the job. So your primary goal should be to make the most relevant information stand out. You can do this by including more specific details, demonstrating particular skills, or emphasizing relevant activities. A useful strategy is to group related skills and qualifications under headers, and highlight the most relevant ones for each job. This way the reader can quickly scan for information on required skills and qualifications.

What is going to happen to redwood forests now that climate change is reducing the fog on the California coast?
### Response:
| It is indeed forecast that conditions will become drier on the California coast as a result of climate change, which may have negative impacts on the giant redwood forests that currently thrive in that area due to the fog and moderate climate. This change in climate will have a variety of impacts. First, the dense fog that currently blankets the coast of California in the morning will diminish, resulting in warmer temperatures and drier forests. This will likely lead to longer, more intense droughts during the summer months, as well as increased risk of wildfires. There is also some evidence that the fog itself plays an important role in the physiology of redwood trees, by providing a source of moisture during dry periods and regulating the amount of sunlight reaching the forest. So changes in fog patterns may have a significant impact on growth and survival of redwoods. On the bright side, drier conditions will reduce the risk of molds and diseases that currently affect redwood forests, and increased sunlight may lead to more photosynthesis and growth of plants and trees in the area. Overall, the changes in fog patterns on the California coast as a result of climate change are likely to have a variety of negative impacts on giant redwood forests, but the future effects of these changes are not entirely clear at this point.

If I liked The Shining, what other movies might I like?
### Response:
| The Shining is a movie that has both fans and critics. Some people really like it, and others think it’s overrated. It’s one of Stanley Kubrick’s earlier movies, and it’s also one of Jack Nicholson’s first big roles. You might also like the movie The Strangers. That’s a horror movie with a psychological thriller element. It’s also directed by a director named Bryan Bertino. He’s kind of breaking out right now. I think you might like his work. It’s not a huge movie, but it’s a really good one. The Shining is also a Stephen King novel. There’s also a TV series called “Hannibal.” That show is on Amazon Prime, but I also recommend it. The show is great. It’s kind of a mix of psychological thriller and horror, and it’s beautifully made. I really like it.

Why is the English alphabet organized the way it is?
### Response:
| Alphabetical order has been around for thousands of years, and many different cultures have used their own forms of alphabetical ordering.
In Europe, the order we know today has been used since around the twelfth century. The letters are organized according to their names, such that the first is a, and then aa, ab, and so on, with each letter occurring in the same place relative to all other letters. In other words, the letters were organized so that the letter a comes after the letter b, which comes after c, which comes after d, and so on. This is called “Heterological Alphabetical Order”. Although this system wasn’t formalized until the 1200s, it was already used informally, and there are numerous ancient examples of this ordering, including an early example from Italy in the 1000s. With this system, you can arrange words in alphabetical order, since each letter comes in the same position relative to all other letters.
