Space
The distant future
A long way from home
Aboard the Solitude

They gave me enough rations and air to last a full six months. Enough to last the whole recon mission. It’s been long enough now that the sound of my own thoughts is slowly driving me crazy. Outside Observation is just space. Space as far as the eye can see. Dotted with stars smaller than a baby's laugh. A sea of stillness spreading out forever.

Just below me is Judas 5. The star I was sent here to check out. Do a full orbit, they said, scan the planets in the system for atmosphere, water, plant life, etcetera, then shoot the retros and get the hell back here. Easy peasy. Simple simple simple. Simple mission. All I really had to do was sit in this cramped space for half a year, twiddle my thumbs, catch up on my reading, and keep myself in shape. The computers handled everything, mostly. They auto-guidance systems guided. The auto-detector system detected. Then once the six months was up I just pressed the big shiny button on the dashboard and I’d be home before I knew it.

I wondered how Anita was doing. Dating was hard for Nauts. Noughts. We were literally out of this world for months, years at a time. Dating outside the agency was a nightmare. Wait, so you’re telling me I get to see you one week in fifty-two? And you’re looking for something serious? Riiiiight, yeah not gonna work. Long distance? What a joke. Dating within the agency was hell as well. Sure you find a nice girl, cute, smart (or course), fit. She likes you. You like her. You ask her out. You go out. She gets deployed to Ulysses 12 or whatever. Best case scenario, she goes out alone, not knowing when she’ll be back, and you get sent out on your own mission to god knows where, and you two somehow manage to sync your timetables. Somehow. Unlikely though. Worst case scenario she gets sent out with mister Joe Beefpecs and gets hooked up while on mission. It’s only natural. Half a year in a cramped little room with only one other person for company? Sex is a no brainer of a time passer.

Anyway Anita. This girl I’d met a while back. Cute. Smart. Kind of a sarcastic chick. Funny though. She said she was fine with my job, but if I get back and she’s moved on I wouldn’t be surprised. Six months is a long time to be away from home.

Home. A little apartment in the city, round the corner from this nice little café no one knows about. A quiet little space in a city that never shuts up. An empty room in a place bursting at the seams with people. Some nauts didn’t see the point of living off-base. Didn’t see the point of getting attached to earthbounds. Earthbound people, earthbound places, they mean. Kept their rooms on base bare because they never had time to decorate. I guess I see their point. If I’m away ninety percent of the time there really is no point buying a place of my own. But I dunno. I kind like that, the fact that I’ve got a little place tucked away, just for me. Maybe I’m just sentimental like that.

The Solitude. Shuttles as a rule didn’t get names. I know they used to name them all – Discovery, Challenger, whatever – but these days they were just given codes. ATS, PNB, RT7, FUBAR etc. This hunk of twenty-year old junk was named DSSS 92 back in the heyday of the agency, when we could afford to send ninety two of the fuckers out there. Out here. Into space. Deep space surveyor shuttle ninety two. Really captures the imagination. So I thought, yknow what, I’ve been on enough recons with this little guy to deserve to name him. Her. It. Whatever.

Solitude. Original I know. But I guess I might as well. What with the air situation and all.

Oh. That. Yeah.

Captains log number one. Number last.

Day ninety-two.
The DSSS solitude.
A long way from home.
Retros are busted. Got hit by a freak shower a couple months back. Meteor, not rain. Been orbiting this sun for near on two months now. Air running out. No response from Terra.   Looks like I’m on my own. No surprises there.

I

I don’t know what else to say. It’s not like I’m leaving anyone behind after all.

...

Oh yeah. my mission.
...

No habitable zones found surrounding Judas 5.
No signs of life in surveyed area.
Mission status complete. Heading home.

text:
_INTRODUCTION TO CIRCLE PACKING: THE THEORY OF DISCRETE ANALYTIC FUNCTIONS_ is a mathematical monograph concerning systems of tangent circles and the circle packing theorem. It was written by Kenneth Stephenson and published in 2005 by the Cambridge University Press.

Topics

Circle packings, as studied in this book, are systems of circles that touch at tangent points but do not overlap, according to a combinatorial pattern of adjacencies specifying which pairs of circles should touch. The circle packing theorem states that a circle packing exists if and only if the pattern of adjacencies forms a planar graph; it was originally proved by Paul Koebe in the 1930s, and popularized by William Thurston, who rediscovered it in the 1970s and connected it with the theory of conformal maps and conformal geometry. As a topic, this should be distinguished from sphere packing, which considers higher dimensions (here, everything is two dimensional) and is more focused on packing density than on combinatorial patterns of tangency.

The book is divided into four parts, in progressive levels of difficulty. The first part introduces the subject visually, encouraging the reader to think about packings not just as static objects but as dynamic systems of circles that change in predictable ways when the conditions under which they are formed (their patterns of adjacency) change. The second part concerns the proof of the circle packing theorem itself, and of the associated rigidity theorem: every maximal planar graph can be associated with a circle packing that is unique up to Möbius transformations of the plane. More generally the same result holds for any triangulated manifold, with a circle packing on a topologically equivalent Riemann surface that is unique up to conformal equivalence.

The third part of the book concerns the degrees of freedom that arise when the pattern of adjacencies is not fully triangulated (it is a planar graph, but not a maximal planar graph). In this case, different extensions of this pattern to larger maximal planar graphs will lead to different packings, which can be mapped to each other by corresponding circles. The book explores the connection between these mappings, which it calls discrete analytic functions, and the analytic functions of classical mathematical analysis. The final part of the book concerns a conjecture of William Thurston, proved by Burton Rodin and Dennis Sullivan, that makes this analogy concrete: conformal mappings from any topological disk to a circle can be approximated by filling the disk by a hexagonal packing of unit circles, finding a circle packing that adds to that pattern of adjacencies a single outer circle, and constructing the resulting discrete analytic function. This part also includes applications to number theory and the visualization of brain structure.

Stephenson has implemented algorithms for circle packing and used them to construct the many illustrations of the book, giving to much of this work the flavor of experimental mathematics, although it is also mathematically rigorous. Unsolved problems are listed throughout the book, which also includes nine appendices on related topics such as the ring lemma and Doyle spirals.

Audience and reception

The book presents research-level mathematics, and is aimed at professional mathematicians interested in this and related topics. Reviewer Frédéric Mathéus describes the level of the material in the book as “both mathematically rigorous and accessible to the novice mathematician”, presented in an approachable style that conveys the author's love of the material. However, although the preface to the book states that no background knowledge is necessary, and that the book can be read by non-mathematicians or used as an undergraduate textbook, reviewer Michele Intermont disagrees, noting that it has no exercises for students and writing that “non-mathematicians will be nothing other than frustrated with this book”. Similarly, reviewer David Mumford finds the first seven chapters (part I and much of part II) to be at an undergraduate level, but writes that “as a whole, the book is suitable for graduate students in math”.

title: Introduction to Circle Packing

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What are some related fields to circle packing?

answer: A related field would be sphere packing, and higher dimensional studies, such as conformal map.

answer: Computational geometry and Classical analytic function

answer: Circle packing is related to a variety of fields in mathematics such as conformal geometry, topological manifolds, and discrete analytic functions. More generally, it relates to spherical and higher-dimensional sphere packing.

answer: The theory of conformal maps and conformal geometry are related. It has similarities to the analytical functions of classical mathematical analysis. These similarities can be applied to number theory and the visualizations of the brain's structure.

text: The later part of the response cannot be verified from the original article.

refinement: The theory of conformal maps and conformal geometry are related. It has similarities to the analytical functions of classical mathematical analysis.

answer: Circle packing is related to the fields of transformational geometry and classical mathematical analysis, specifically to the theory of conformal mappings. It also bears similarities to geometric combinatorics and number theory.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What parts of the book does the reviewer David Mumford call out as exceeding the abilities of a novice?

answer: More than seven chapters worth of material

text: The response does not correspond to what is written in the article.

refinement: None. Mumford writes that the first seven chapters are at an undergraduate level.

answer: The first two-thirds of the book (the part with chapters I and II) are described by Mumford as relatively accessible up to an undergraduate level. The last two-thirds of the book (parts III and IV) are described by Mumford as suitable as graduate-level readings for mathematicians.

answer: Mumford says the sections about the degrees of freedom that arise when the patterns of circle adjacencies aren't fully triangulated and the formal proof of the analogy between classical analytic functions with the different extensions of the previous case is beyond the ability of an undergrad.

answer: The parts of the book that exceed the abilities of novice mathematicians are, according to reviewer David Mumford, chapters one through seven and much of chapter two, which deal with topics such as the proof of the circle packing theorem, the uniqueness of circle packings under certain conditions, and the connection between circle packings and analytic functions.

answer: The parts of the book that David Mumford identifies as exceeding the abilities of a novice are the second part, which discusses the proof of the circle packing theorem itself, and part III, which concerns the degrees of freedom that arise when the pattern of adjacencies is not fully triangulated.

[Map of Kuwait, with Iraq to the north] The IRAQ–KUWAIT BORDER is 254 km (158 m) in length and runs from the tripoint with Saudi Arabia in the west to the Persian Gulf coast in the east.[1]

Description

The border starts in the west at the Saudi tripoint on the Wadi Al-Batin, and then follows this wadi as it flows north-eastwards. The border then turns east, following a straight line for 32 km (20 m), before another straight line veers to the south-east for 26 km (16 m), terminating at the coast by the junction of the Khawr Abd Allah and Khor as Subiyah opposite Hajjam Island.

History

Historically there was no clearly defined boundary in this part of the Arabian peninsula; at the start of the 20th century the Ottoman Empire controlled what is now Iraq and Britain controlled Kuwait as a protectorate.[2] Britain and the Ottoman Empire theoretically divided their realms of influence via the so-called 'Blue' and 'Violet lines' in 1913-14, by which the Ottomans recognised British claims on Kuwait, divided from Ottoman Mesopotamia along the Wadi Al-Batin (the so-called 'green line', _see map right_).[3][4][5]

[Map with red circle and green circle boundaries according to the Anglo-Ottoman Convention of 1913] During the First World War an Arab Revolt, supported by Britain, succeeded in removing the Ottomans from most of the Middle East. As a result of the secret 1916 Anglo-French Sykes-Picot Agreement Britain gained control of the Ottoman Vilayets of Mosul, Baghdad and Basra, which it organised into the mandate of Iraq in 1920.[6] In 1932, the year that Iraq gained independence, Britain confirmed that the border between Iraq and Kuwait would run along the Wadi Al-Batin, as well as confirming that Bubiyan and Warbah islands were Kuwaiti territoriality, though the precise positioning of the northern straight line segments near Safwan remained imprecise.[7]

Kuwait gained independence in 1962, though Iraq initially refused to recognise the country claiming it as part of Iraq, later backing down following a show of force by Britain and the Arab League in support of Kuwait.[8][9][10] A treaty of friendship was signed in 1963 by which Iraq recognised the 1932 border.[11] Despite this, over the ensuing decade Iraq often raised the issue of sea access and the traditional claim to Kuwait, most notably in 1973 with the 1973 Samita border skirmish.

In 1990 Iraq invaded and annexed Kuwait, precipitating the Gulf War by which Kuwait's sovereignty was restored.[12][13] In July 1992 the matter of border demarcation was referred to the United Nations, which accurately mapped the boundary and then demarcated it on the ground, following the 1932 line with some small adjustments.[14] The border was accepted by Kuwait but not Iraq.[15] The United Nations Iraq–Kuwait Observation Mission monitored the border during the period 1991-2003. Relations between the two states have improved since the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003.

Barrier

The IRAQ–KUWAIT BARRIER ( _Hudud al-'Irāq-al-Kuwayt_) is a border fence extending into Iraq, into Kuwait, and across the full length of their mutual border from Saudi Arabia to the Persian Gulf. Constructed by authorisation of the United Nations Security Council, its stated purpose was to stop a re-invasion of Kuwait by Iraq.

The border barrier, made of electrified fencing and concertina wire, is braced by a and trench, complete with a dirt berm and guarded by hundreds of soldiers, several patrol boats, and helicopters. Construction of the barrier began in 1991.

In January 2004, Kuwait decided to install a new iron barrier along the border. The barrier was estimated to have cost $28 million and the entire length of the border; asphalted roads were be also constructed to facilitate border security movement.[16]

Mauricio Pochettino fears that English football’s tendency towards over-analysis, and its fixation on minor issues like diving, is slowly “killing the game”. Speaking after Dele Alli was booked for simulation in the 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday - his third such offence in as many seasons - Pochettino voiced his belief that the general mood of moral panic within the game, over what he described as “minimal details”, risks stifling football’s natural expression.

Pochettino also reserved harsh judgement for the use of video technology, saying that human refereeing errors were an intrinsic part of the game. Likewise, he argued that simulation on the pitch, while an offence rightly punishable under the laws of the game, was simply a sporting tactic rather than anything more sinister, insisting: “Football is about trying to trick your opponent.”

The Tottenham manager has admitted in the past that during his playing days at Newell’s Old Boys and Estudiantes, diving to win a penalty from the referee was regarded as a skill, one even practised in training. And Pochettino’s distaste for English moralising is underpinned by the fact that it was his leg over which Michael Owen dived during the 2002 World Cup, ultimately sending England through to the knockout stages at Argentina’s expense.

Doubtless Pochettino will be accused in some quarters of giving divers a free pass. Yet equally, he deserves a good deal of credit for trying to convey a nuanced, intelligent sentiment in a language that is not his first. He agreed that Alli’s dive merited a booking, although he denied that Alli was beginning to develop a bad reputation amongst referees. But it was the froth and furore that followed which he found most baffling.

“Look, it was a yellow card,” he said. “It happens. The referee was right. During different games, a lot of situations like this happen. The problem now is that we are so sensitive about the situation, and then we are so focused on Dele Alli. It’s too much sometimes. There is such a focus on this type of situation. I think it’s a minimal issue.

“Look, there are a lot of positives from Dele. Of course, he's not perfect. Nobody is perfect. Of course, he is a clever boy. He is a little bit nasty. The problem is that, more than this type of situation, I am worried we are going to change the game that we know.”

Mauricio Pochettino has stressed that commentators shouldn't be overly fixated on Dele Alli's diving antics

(Getty)

Whereupon the discussion abruptly opened out into broader themes: into the media, into English exceptionalism, into the very essence of the game. “Football is a creative sport,” he said, “in which you need the talent that grows in a very intelligent person, a very smart brain. And now we are so focused on minimal details. I am worried that in a few years, we are pushing the sport we love now - a passionate sport that people love to watch around the world - into a very rigid structure. With VAR, with focusing too much on small actions like this.

“Football is about trying to trick your opponent - yes or no? Tactics – what does ‘tactic’ mean? When you do tactics, it is to try to trick the opponent. You play on the right, but you finish on the left. Twenty years ago, thirty years ago, we all congratulated a player when he tricks the referee like this. That is the football that I was in love with when I was a child. Yes, in Argentina, but in England too. You believe that in England you were honest and always perfect?”

Finally, Pochettino argued that referees should simply be allowed to officiate and make errors unmolested by instant judgement and granular video analysis. “I am worried that maybe we are going to kill the game,” he said. “We love this game. Referees are humans too, and sometimes they are right, sometimes they are not right. In 10 months, over the whole season, sometimes it is against you, sometimes it is for you. For me, I like this type of football.

The Tottenham boss is concerned the game is being scrutinised to the point of death

(Getty)

“My worry is this: of course if you dive, and the referee saw you, you are punished. And he deserves it. But don’t go more crazy.”

After a turbulent few days, Alli will probably be grateful for a night away from the spotlight, as he is set to be rested for Tottenham’s FA Cup fourth-round replay against Newport County at Wembley on Wednesday night. Pochettino said he would make several changes, with crunch games against Arsenal and Juventus coming up in the next week. Toby Alderweireld and Danny Rose could both return from injury, while Harry Winks, Fernando Llorente, Juan Foyth and Serge Aurier are all in contention for a start.

Naturally, Tottenham will remain heavy favourites against their League Two opposition, who will be bringing almost 8,000 fans to Wembley from South Wales. With Newport receiving 45 per cent of gate receipts, plus television revenue, this season’s cup run could end up earning the club around £700,000 - a third of their annual budget.

								Rider

My mom has always been supportive of my career as a musician. My dad never got around to it. The only bands he’d ever listen to were the Beatles and Rolling Stones. He wanted the Beatles played at his funeral, which he got. My mom never talks about the music that she listens to  except for her uncle Alan who toured the Midwest in the 50’s as a troubadour;  he’s still famous in our town.
	I haven’t been home in a while, not that I miss it much. I moved to LA when I was 23. I was bored by the people, bored by my job at the grocery store and tired of not seeing anything happening. When I moved I had most of my” LA-experiences” during the first six months, right drugs- wrong people, that sort of thing. I thought the substances would inspire me as it seemed to inspire others but that never happened. I also played some gigs with local small-timers but it never amounted to much.
	My fourth summer in LA came around and thats when I met Terrie outside a used-car shop. I’d been looking to replace dad’s station-wagon that I’d driven to the coast.As  I was standing there looking over some of my options I saw the glint of peroxide-blonde hair and sweaty fish-net stockings out of the corner of my eye. I remember the coral lipstick, which I later learned was her favorite, so shiny on those lips. She walked up to me to bum a cigarette. As I’d recently quit smoking I apologized and told her I didn’t have any on me. Disappointed, she asked me for a lighter to borrow if she could bum a smoke from a man that was standing by a newsstand across the street. I didn’t have a lighter either but I reached into my vest pocket for the book of matches I always kept there. As I handed it to her she thanked me and smiled in the most heartbreaking manner that I knew that I had to make her mine. Although I was more of what you might call the singer-songwriter type than a rocker this girl with her glam rock look was something else. Underneath that done up exterior I could see that she was pretty in an old-fashioned way. Later, when we were married, I used to tell her that she was like a burning wheat field blowing in the summer wind; she never understood what I meant. Our courtship was fast on because on account of her parents being strictly religious. Terrie was only 21 when we married but they consented and gave us their blessing because I was “a good God-fearing Midwestern boy.”

	Through Terrie I got more involved in the rock scene and discovered I had a knack for writing catchy riffs. I joined one of the local outfits who were in need of a guitarist and shortly after that we played as support band for one of the west coasts most famous bands on their US tour. Crazy days of touring and debauchery followed but after rising tensions in the band and disagreements with our management we decided to call it quits.
	Then Terrie got pregnant. She was excited but seeing as her job at the record store didn’t pay much and my being unemployed, I was worried to say the least. Fortunately I lucked out in joining as a touring and studio session guitarist with a band that had just signed a big deal with a major label. Unfortunately this mean being on the road for long stretches at a time. things quickly went downhill in our relationship and it was while touring in Japan that I got the terrible news that Terrie had suffered a miscarriage. She was inconsolable and quit her job. I tried to be home as much as I could to care for her but my contractual obligations took me out of town again. things between us never recovered after that and I blame myself for that. Two months after the loss of our child iÍ got a call from Roy, a sergeant in the Marines who tells me he’s in love with my wife and she is in love with him and they are going to Germany. While this news hurt at first I can’t say I was surprised; I kept my nose to the grind to give me something else to think about. One tour lead to another and after 5 years the band went through a lineup change and I was thrust into the role of frontman. Evidently I did something right as we quickly started selling out the largest arenas and stadiums. We got through 3 good tours before ticket sales started to dwindle. These days we play to fairly large clubs and such, I don’t complain, seeing as it brings in good money. I live a private and enjoyable life.
	I’ve never met Terrie since our marriage ended but last I heard Roy was killed in a combat exercise and she had gotten remarried to a journalist. Even though our relationship went to pieces I still cherish terrie and our times together.
	At the venues we play the band usually has extensive requirements to ensure their comfort. My only requests on the rider are one ham sandwich and two fingers of bourbon. I usually go out into whichever city we’re playing that night and walk around while eating my sandwich. Even though the band is still fairly popular people seldom recognize me off the stage. I also try to find a bookstore to buy something by a local author for those long flights and bus rides. Just before showtime I’ll find a quiet spot in the venue and toast my parents, my hometown and my Terrie.

Built up by Theo and his older brother Karl from their mother’s corner shop in the bombed-out rubble of postwar Essen in Germany, the privately controlled Aldi empire now extends to more than 8,000 stores around the world, including 300 in Britain — where its no-frills low-price format rapidly gained popularity during the recession. Though challenged in recent times by rival “discounters” such as Lidl (also German-owned), Aldi achieved sales in 2009 of more than 50 billion euros worldwide.

Little is known of the private lives of the Albrecht family, but Theo’s wealth was estimated by Forbes last year at $16.7 billion, making him the 31st richest person in the world and Germany’s second richest behind Karl at $23.5 billion; the brothers fortunes combined were exceed only by those of Warren Buffett, Bill Gates and the Mexican Carlos Slim.

The Albrechts’ obsession with privacy — living behind fortress-like security on estates overlooking the Ruhr valley, rarely snapped by paparazzi, never making public statements — derived in part from Theo’s experience in December 1971, when he was kidnapped at gunpoint by Heinz-Joachim Ollenburg, a lawyer with gambling debts, and his accomplice Paul Kron. Theo was held for 17 days in Ollenburg’s Düsseldorf office, but so nondescript was his appearance — he favoured cheap, ill-fitting suits — that the kidnappers demanded to see his ID to make sure they had snatched the right man. He responded by haggling over the ransom sum, which was eventually fixed at seven million Deutschmarks, and was delivered to a highway rendezvous by the Bishop of Essen. Ollenburg and Kron were caught and jailed, but only half of the money was recovered. Albrecht went to court to claim it as a tax-deductible business expense.

Theodor Paul Albrecht was born in the Schonnebeck suburb of Essen, in the industrial Ruhr region, on March 28 1922, two years after his brother Karl. Their father was a miner until emphysema rendered him an invalid; their frugal, hard-working mother ran a small food shop and, in the 1930s, the two youths sold buns around the district from a wooden cart. Both served in the German army during the war: Theo with Rommel’s Afrika Corps until he was eventually captured by US troops in Italy in 1945.

When the brothers were released from prisoner of war camps to return to Essen they found most of the city (a major railway centre which had also been the site of Krupps munitions factories) reduced to ruins, But their mother’s house and shop was intact. They began to expand the business with other grocery outlets, experimenting with a no-frills self-service format and a limited range of merchandise. Within a decade, as Germany’s economic recovery gathered pace, they owned more than 100 stores.

In 1961 they adopted the name Aldi (a contraction of Albrecht Discount) and divided the map of Germany in half — along the so-called Aldi Equator — reportedly after disagreeing over whether or not to sell cigarettes. Theo took control of Aldi Nord, still based in Essen, while Karl, reputedly the more dynamic of the duo in their younger days, ran Aldi Sud from Essen’s sister city of Mulheim.

They later divided the rest of the world, if not quite in such a logical way: Theo’s empire expanded into France, Spain, Portugal and Poland, while Karl’s eventually reached Britain and Australia. And both brothers built operations in the United States, Karl under the Aldi banner and Theo as owner of the Trader Joe’s chain of 340 “gourmet” grocery stores that he acquired in 1979.

At home in Germany the group expanded to 4,000 stores, owned via a number of legally separate operating units which allowed the brothers to co-operate when it suited them but to circumvent laws on accounting disclosure for large businesses and to avoid having to deal with a nationwide workers’ council. They ran their operations with military discipline and attention to detail, and in such secrecy that Aldi managers were forbidden not only to talk to the press but even to talk to their own colleagues in other districts.

Growth was funded out of retained profits rather than public capital-raising, and success was achieved by offering no more than a few hundred well-chosen product lines (rather than the tens of thousands found in other supermarkets) at low prices made possible by massive purchasing. This was combined with a high ratio of sales per square metre of floor space, and ferocious cost control — the latter being Theo’s special skill.

Little money was wasted on marketing, and none at all on making Aldi stores look elegant: goods were simply piled up along the aisles in packing cases. Theo himself made a point of using pencil stubs rather than expensive pens. Asked to approve the plans for a new outlet in Holland, he replied that the design was good but the paper it was drawn on was too thick: “If you use thinner paper we will save money.”

A devout Roman Catholic, Theo Albrecht retired from the day-to-day running of the business in 1993, but remained active as chairman of the foundation that is Aldi Nord’s principal shareholder. He is survived by his wife Cilli, their sons Theo Jr and Berthold, who hold management positions in Aldi, and his brother Karl, now 90.

text:
We all died at the same time. It was a combination of two of our friends, Rhett and Sam, and a bit of unfortunate luck. I don't know what you would call it. Not murder, they only put things in motion. But they did  mean to do it, so intended Manslaughter? Either way, it ended with the three of us with cracked skulls at the bottom of bleachers.

That was my original guess as to why we were chosen for the roles we now play. We found out later that something we had each done changed the world through ripple effect, so the world isn't as random as you would think. They simultaneously cured cancer and started another war.

Hannah became the World Angel. Quiet and soft, out of the three of us it was a nobrainer. My bet was she would have become the World Angel eventually even if we hadn't died when we did. She influences all the good I'm the world. The halo I joked about her having back when we were alive I now really there, as well as an extreme wardrobe change to a soft white dress. She wasn't a huge fan at first, being that she always wore a blue hoodie and jeans, but I think its grown on her.

Will became the World Demon, which makes him sound a lot worse than he really is. It must have been a toss up between the two of us to be the World Demon at first, but he won out in the end because he has a certain way with words that makes it so you're going to listen to him. Naturally, he's in charge of negative actions. If you look around, our redhead is doing a good job right now. Said redhead was outfitted in a expensive look black suit and a red tie. Again, not particularly his style, but he stopped complaining after a decade or two.

I think I've gotten the hardest job out of the three of us. After being done up in a beautiful gray silk dress, I was given the title World Truth, which wouldn't give away my spot without you knowing anything else. I'm in charge on assigning every important person in the world an alignment, so to speak. My predecessor assigned Hitler an evil alignment, for instance. I tell the two of my friends to keep am eye on people who I assign alignments.

Which brings me to you. I've had a hard time with you. Watched through your childhood, and I know your future. Run for world leader, see how that goes. Since I know how that turns out, I'm supposed to give you an alignment. But I cant figure you out. You're a perfect neutral.

Then it hit me.

You'll end up be the next World Truth, a pure one. I'll be picking your World Angel and World Demon, I think I have them locked down. Hold him and her close to you, you might be spending a millenia or two with them.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What is the assertion of the piece?

answer: The angel, demon and truth in charge of assigning new world leaders.

text: It misses to mention that the three protagonists are now dead which is the reason they've become their respective roles as effects from past actions.

refinement: The angel, demon and truth in charge of assigning new world leaders after their simultaneous deaths, giving them roles as effects from past actions.

answer: Because all three of these dead people did the same action, something that had ripple effects beyond their death, they were chosen to now preside over their action in the afterlife.

text: It misses to mention that from past actions they each have different roles presiding over important people in the world.

refinement: Because all three of these dead people did the same action, something that had ripple effects beyond their death, they were chosen to now preside over important people in the world, as the Demon, Angel and World Truth.

answer: The assertion of the piece is that all three of the protagonists were chosen because of the ripple effect caused by their past actions. They have since collectively assumed the roles of World Angel, World Demon, and World Truth. The World Truth is in charge of assigning all important people in the world an alignment. This protagonist has trouble assigning an alignment to the protagonist of the piece due to the protagonist's neutral nature. Eventually, they realize that the protagonist will be the next World Truth, and that responsibility will fall to them to assign the World Angel and the World Demon.

answer: The assertion of the piece is that the three main characters died and were chosen to be the World Angel, the World Demon, and the World Truth based on their previous actions changing the world. The World Truth now assigns alignments for important people in the world. The author posits that the protagonist will eventually be chosen to be the new World Truth.

answer: That when people die they might be assigned to be the World Angel, the World Demon, or World Truth - entities that guide the world.

refinement: Not necessarily, however the World Demon is in charge of negative actions.

answer: Not exactly. They're in charge of negative actions, but it seems to be part of a yin and yang style arrangement where darkness has its place.

answer: No, he wasn't evil before he died and he maintains his position by influencing people around him with 'a certain way with words', but he can make the world a better place by influencing people in negative ways. He's still a positive influence on the world.

answer: No, the World Demon is not evil. The World Demon represents negative actions.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Did Rhett and Sam die along with the protagonist, or was it another two that died with the protagonist?

answer: Rhett and Sam died along with the protagonist.

text: There is not enough evidence to determine if Rhett and Sam died along with the protagonist.

refinement: It is possible that Rhett and Sam died along with the protagonist.

answer: The story implies that the person doesn't know how they died with Rhett and Sam; it must have been a simultaneous death. They think that Rhett and Sam were to blame for their death, being the ones that broke the news of their death, and after they did, which they thought at first might be the cause of their death, "we found out later that something we had each done changed the world through a ripple effect, so the world isn't as random as you would think." So, there is evidence that Rhett and Sam might have saved two of the three from dying.

question: Write a ~7 sentence summary.

answer: The world was devastated when a group of friends accidentally killed one another. One became the World Angel, one became the World Demon, and the last became the World Truth. The World Truth spends time assigning important people worldwide an alignment. The latest hero in their eyes is someone who is perfect neutral- but in the end, they'll end up becoming the next World Truth.

answer: After World Truth, World Angel and the World Demon made the world a better place as they set out to cure cancer and start another war, they died. One became an angel, one became demon and the other became truth. She never cared about her wardrobe. Through a ripple effect, the truth sets up someones upcoming life and how it turns out. She tells the truth to someone special who is about to end up being angel and demon. She tells him to look after the chosen ones.

answer: When a trio of friends are killed rather intentionally, they find there is an after life and one's role can be much greater than normally imagined. They are assigned the roles of World Angel, World Demon, and World Truth to help guide humanity. The World Angel influences all the good in the world, the World Demon is in charge of all negative actions, and World Truth assigns every important person in the world an alignment. For example, the last World Truth assigned Hitler an evil assignment. When it comes to you, the reader, World Truth has trouble figuring out an assignment. She says you're pure neutral. Then she decides to assign you to be the next World Truth.
