text:
On April 18th, a broadcast appeared on the television before me, and my breath hitched. Everything around me stopped: the people crossing the road while maybe I should be as well, or maybe my legs were moving without me realizing it? I’d become petrified.

My best friend, Aidan, had been found dead in his bedroom from an overdose of sleeping pills. Seeing his face so blissful on the screen made everything around me rampantly snap back to reality, and I felt overwhelmed. All I could do was walk in whatever general direction I thought home was.

	It’s funny, really: whenever someone chooses to bring their own life to an end, they always seem so happy in the images the news channel decides to add in. It’s fake; if they were pushed to that point, the person was never truly that happy around then.

                   ~Three Years Ago~

“Ness, are you okay?” a boy with choppy black hair sat down beside me while I’d bawled my eyes out on the bench. “N-no, my puppy died… He got hit trying to chase me to the bus stop,” the thought had made me cry even more. He sat in silence for a bit, before jumping up and dragging me toward town. “W-what?!” I was so dishevelled; I didn’t want anyone to see me. “C’mon! If you’re sad, I’ll distract you!” Aidan smiled like he believed in everything he said. That everything would always work out.

The death of my puppy had felt so implacable at that time, like nothing else could ever hurt more. I’ve never been so wrong – Aidan was so stoical whenever I’d seen him; it was like the only emotion he ever felt was contentedness. Even when his grandfather had passed away he had only frowned and then remained optimistic for his grandfather’s afterlife.

A few times, I had tried to get under Aidan’s skin to see if he was hiding any negativity underneath. I always quickly gave up, however, because he would always find ways to prove to me that everything was okay. Looking back, I really should have pushed a little harder to satisfy my qualms. Evidently, something was disturbing him. I wondered how well Aidan slept at night. Then again, he was there whenever I’d texted because I was really down and out, no matter how early in the morning it was.

I felt so betrayed… I’d even tried to emulate Aidan on a few occasions, because he had an aptitude for cheering people up and brightening the mood. Memories kept coming back to me even when I tried my best to push them out. No matter where I turned or how much the falling rain blocked my sight, I kept seeing Aidan standing there in the places we’d once frequented. I just don’t understand. What was he lacking? I doubt it was sustenance; his home life was great: Aidan’s parents are wonderful people. They even treated me as if I were their second daughter. Aidan was well-liked in school, too, by students and professors alike. His future was so propitious.

I had a nightmare tonight about finding Aidan’s body full of blood, and even then he was still smiling, telling me he would be okay. I screamed because the sight was just too unbelievable, and then all of a sudden my surroundings changed. I was surrounded by mirrors, and Aidan was reflected, smiling just like always. Then I lost it. I frantically smashed every mirror I could find until I realized they were endless, which led to me waking up in bed. Too nerved up to fall back to sleep, I wandered downstairs and found a note in front of the living room mirror. I picked it up.

“Vanessa, I am so, so sorry… if you don’t know what I’m apologizing for, you will soon. Even if you resent me for this, I just want you to know that I’m okay. I’ll be okay, wherever I go. I won’t forget you; it wasn’t anyone’s fault so please don’t let anyone feel responsible. Know that it wasn’t because you didn’t try hard enough to question me because I wouldn’t have told you anyway. It’s just something that couldn’t be helped… I’ll be happier now.
I love you. ~ Aidan. April 17th, 10:42 p.m.

I couldn’t find the words to express how I was feeling. I just stared into the mirror before me, until my reflection cracked and tears streamed down both sides of my cheeks, dropping onto the floor and shattering like glass.

    “At least you’re happy, Aidan… good–bye.”
Maybe I’ll see you again, someday.

split: train

text:
When you were nine, your mother shot you in the chest.

At school, they called you Voodoo Boy, but as your dad, I couldn’t see the wood for the trees. I see it now. Clear as sheets of gelatine. And the way you sculpted me... well, it makes the analogy all the more appropriate I suppose.
When you fell and tore your knees, you didn’t cry like other kids. You were transfixed by the leaky, tasty goo that came out; running down your shins, and coating your fingertips. Dabbling and savouring and swallowing the copper liquid, with a grin on your face and a flutter in your concrete heart.

Your teachers would write notes in your workbook. Not pleasant ‘Well done Nicholas’es as I would’ve wanted, but ‘See me’s and red detention slips. All the time. Stabbing with pencils, painting curses on walls. You held a girl down, and stapled her tongue to her lip, Nick.

We took you out of school after that.
And your mother, she looked at you in shame, disgust. Loathing. She couldn’t understand – and this is a direct quote – why you were so fucking evil. I couldn’t bring myself to hate you. I made you, and I wanted to make your life liveable. That was my duty.

The strangest things would fascinate you; ordinarily exciting things were dashed with mundane and just discarded, like they weren’t worth the effort. You liked eyes. You drew them. You touched them and pushed them inwards to see how long it took for your vision to fog over. Once, your mother stopped you from popping it back into your skull. We need to be clear on this; it wasn’t because she didn’t want it to happen. She almost certainly did. She simply couldn’t stomach it. And when yours weren’t interesting anymore, the growing brown tedium of your irises, you looked to experiment elsewhere.
Not on me, mine were brown too. What you told me after pressing your own was that you wanted to see inside. You asked me what was there, and I said I didn’t know. Blood or something probably.

It was around eight o’clock, sometime in November. Your mother had fallen asleep on the sofa, and you were drawing, cutting and sticking. You heard her snore; ‘Mean Old Mum’, and you felt like an experiment. Mother’s pearly blues.
You tried to see inside her eyes. I think you believed me about the contents, but you were very much about finding things out for yourself, for certain.
Her eyes were loosely closed. The one on the left, the top eyelid. You snipped it right up the middle to get a closer look at the cornea, the iris, the pupil. White fluid, red fluid, and screaming, cursing, flailing mother. She said that we had to disown you, that you were a fucked up child. I couldn’t leave you, and she left me after that. I still loved her and trusted her, and she still popped by from time to time – to cry, to talk – but she never acknowledged you again.
One day, she came by, drunk. Very drunk. All slurred words and vocal gesticulations. She had a service revolver, her Dad’s I think.

When you were nine, your mother shot you in the chest.
When you were nine, your mother shot herself in the head, upwards, through the roof of her mouth.

She collapsed backwards, into the table by the front door – the one we kept the keys on, and the post – an assortment of thumping noises, and gurgling noises trickling from the hole in her head.

I loved you Nick. And for all your faults, I still love you. But I’m done now. Everyone gives me the look. The one that says ‘like Father like son’. And I don’t want to be thought of like that. I’m a good man. I have a good heart. But they’ve gone to waste.

I guess I’m trying to say that I hope all this has changed you, and I’ll see you soon.

Love you Nick,
Dad.

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

answer: Nicholas experiments with eyes, cuts open a mother's eyelid, and shot his mother in the head.

text: There is no evidence in the passage that suggests Nicholas shooting his mother in the head.

refinement: Nicholas cuts open her mother's eyelid, staples a girl's tongue to her lips, and writes curses on walls.

Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Summarize the narrator's feelings towards Nick.

answer: The narrator loves Nick, but is frustrated and disgusted by his immoral and unpredictable behavior.

answer: The narrator struggles to bring himself to hate Nick. He is unable to abandon Nick, even when his wife wants to disown Nick. He loves his son.

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

What is the central source of tension in the story?

answer: The central source of tension in the story is the disconnect between Nick's actions and the reactions of those around him. Specifically, Nick's mother disapproves of his strange behavior and violent tendencies, while his father sympathizes with Nick at the same time. The disconnect stems from their different views on the morality of these actions.

answer: The central source of tension in the story is Nick and his mother's conflicting viewpoints on his violent tendencies. Nick's mother sees him as evil, and she eventually leaves after he causes injury to her eyes. Nick sees himself as an experimenter, and his father sees him as a good child despite his faults.

answer: Nick appears to be psychopathic, and his father struggles to love him despite his cruelty.

text: There is also the issue of the mother.

refinement: Nick appears to be psychopathic, his mother loathes his behavior and his father struggles to love him despite his cruelty.

answer: Where between Nick, his father and the rest of the world

text: The response makes little sense.

refinement: The central source of tension in the story is Nick and his mother's conflicting viewpoints on his violent tendencies. Nick's mother sees him as evil, and she eventually leaves after he causes injury to her eyes. Nick sees himself as an experimenter, and his father sees him as a good child despite his faults.

answer: The fact that the "father" is too immature to attempt to raise his son from the dark side, and that Nick seems to wane thirst for human interaction.


text:
I was sixteen when I first saw him sitting in my deceased Grandfather’s rocking chair. It had been a long summer’s day spent playing football over the local playing field, so I went to sleep rather early, while all of my friends were down the beach beginning their long and lustrous love affairs with drugs and alcohol. Some of them never quite recovered from the addictions they picked up during that scorching summer of 1994. Funnily enough, I brushed shoulders with a couple of them at various AA meetings that I attended later in my life.
While the rush of drugs and alcohol never appealed to me in my teen years – I’d lived a sheltered life under the wing of a controlling Mother and paid particular attention to the horror stories she told – there became a drastic need as life went on for me to use to fight myself to sleep.

Anyway, I remember dreaming of fucking Lucy Barker, the girl I’d always fancied but never felt. I was a teenager and a virgin, so sex was a prominent theme of all of my dreams. Things were escalating rather quickly when I was ripped from the fantasy by the peculiar instinct of being watched.
I shot up like a spring and instantly stared into the corner where my Grandfather’s rocking chair was. I turned pale and felt my stomach perform several somersaults that would take the Olympic gold for gymnastics. In the chair sat a very ordinary looking man, no sharp teeth or claws. He sat there with his lips firmly closed and all of a sudden I heard his voice inside of my head: ‘Beware the subtle loss of life.’

By the time I’d made it to the bedroom light he was gone. Questions arose in my frantic mind, questions that would be answered in the future – was I still asleep? Did I imagine the whole ordeal?
Weeks passed and eventually so did the months without any further incident. Just to be safe I had my Father store my Grandfather’s rocking chair in the attic, chalking up some shitty excuse about how it reminded me of him and brought nothing but sadness.

Despite the lack of visits from the ordinary man, as I’d come to call him, I found myself waking earlier and earlier each morning. Once I was awake there was no chance of me returning to slumber. I was fortunate enough to be mollycoddled by my wealthy parents and therefore I had no school, or work to get up for. So each time I woke I stuck on my PlayStation and bashed the buttons until the sun came up.

Eventually I forgot all about the ordinary man and was concerned only by the non-existent hours of shut eye. I was in my early twenties now and that was when I first turned to alcohol and behold for some wildly unknown reason I began to sleep again.
I slept like a baby each night and by the time I learned to deal with the hangovers I felt better than I ever had. Sure, I was quite a bitter drunk and it got me thinking about my childhood and how I’d abused the good nature of my Mother and Father, but these thoughts had disappeared by the time the morning came.

I would drink alone mostly and would rarely leave my parents’ house, despite my Mother’s pleas for me to find a job and someone I could eventually call a wife. I’d developed a particular liking to whisky and was drinking at least three quarters of a litre a day.

One night I passed out on my bed still fully clothed and drifted into a deep darkness. That’s when the ordinary man returned. Once more I shot up like that night in my teenage years to see him, no sharp teeth or claws, sat in my Grandfather’s rocking chair, the chair I had not seen for years.

He smiled. He smiled and began to open his mouth, as this time he spoke the words: ‘Beware the subtle loss of life.’

What did he mean? I racked my brains for an answer, plucking at every space imaginable, but still I drew a blank and still he sat there rocking and grinning, that fucking chair creaking. It was a smile that would look pleasant on anyone other than him. On him it looked like the smug crease of the lips of the devil. He waved his hand at me and disappeared along with the blasted rocking chair.

When the sun returned to the sky I was surprised how easily I’d fallen back to sleep. I had almost forgotten about the visit from the ordinary man when I felt a sudden chill which reminded me somewhat harshly of the previous evening’s brief calling.

What was the significance of my Grandfather’s rocking chair? More importantly, what was the ordinary man trying to say to me? I was no longer afraid; it was more of an inconvenience. After all, who was this man to disturb my sleep?

I did get a hold of my alcoholism, but it was too late. Both of my parents had passed on, leaving me with a healthy amount of money and two properties to enjoy, but it was too late. The jaundice had kicked in and after several trips to the doctor it became clear that I had liver cancer.

As I write this I only have a few weeks left to live, but last night I received my final visit from the ordinary man.

There I was lying fast asleep with tubes coming out of me like the tentacles of an octopus, when as clear as day there he sat in my Grandfather’s rocking chair, but he no longer had a smile on his face.
‘I tried to warn you, my child. I did my best, but you would not listen – even when I was alive you were such a spoilt child, such a taking child.’
Startled I replied asking him what he meant by this.
‘I am no ordinary man as you have come to call me, but I am your Grandfather. You do not recognise me because you never took the time to notice, or even ask what I looked like in my early years. You were so self-absorbed that life was only what it meant to you.’
He gave me no chance to reply and vanished, but he spoke the truth. A truth I had never bothered to investigate myself, as I was too busy taking from others – wearing my parents down into sickness and eventually death. And what do I have to show for such a wasted life of which I applied no effort? I will die alone here in this cancer ward with no-one to leave me flowers, with no-one to visit my grave.

title: The Ordinary Man

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

What does the story say about why the ordinary man visited the narrator repeatedly?

answer: When he was 16, the ordinary man, his deceased grandfather, sat in his rocking chair and warned him, "Beware the subtle loss of life." The ordinary man appears to have multiple appearances until the narrator graduates school and meets a woman who gets him addicted to alcohol and they sleep together. Once the narrator is better, he is visited by the ordinary man and the old man says he had come to warn him earlier and that he never heard him. The narrator isn't afraid of him this time, but asks what he meant by beware loss of life. The ordinary man responds that he was no ordinary man and that he had come to warn the narrator before he died too. This is when the narrator finds out his ex's father was the man. From here, the ordinary man had appeared to him again, but this time asks him what the narrator did after he had passed the warning the first time. The narrator replies that he repressed and hid the fact, but his memory still came back to haunt him. The old man describes and pities the narrator.

The narrator replies that he repressed and hid the fact, but his memory still came back to haunt him. The old man describes and pities the narrator.

text: The narrator doesn't find out the ordinary man is his grandfather until the end.

refinement: When he was 16, the ordinary man, his deceased grandfather, sat in his rocking chair and warned him, "Beware the subtle loss of life." Later on in life, he is visited by the ordinary man and the old man says he had come to warn him earlier and that he never heard him. The narrator isn't afraid of him this time, but asks what he meant by beware loss of life. The ordinary man responds that he was no ordinary man and that he had come to warn the narrator before he died too. The last time the ordinary man appears, he reveals himself to be the narrator's grandfather, but this time asks what the narrator did after he had passed the warning the first time. The narrator replies that he repressed and hid the fact, but his memory still came back to haunt him. The old man describes and pities the narrator.

answer: The ordinary man visited the narrator multiple times because he was warning him of the dangers of taking too much without giving back. The ordinary man saw that the narrator was too self-absorbed to pay attention, and continuously warned the narrator of the subtle loss of life. The narrator ignored the warnings, and eventually declined into a life of alcoholism and eventually cancer, ultimately leading to his early, lonely death.

answer: The ordinary man visited the narrator because he wanted to warn him to beware of the subtle loss of life. The narrator showed a great deal of entitlement and selfishness while living a life focused solely on himself. The ordinary man visited the narrator in order to warn him that his careless attitude would lead to his downfall, and ultimately his death.

answer: No answer

text: No answer given.

refinement: The ordinary man visited the narrator because he is the narrator's grandfather. He wanted to warn the narrator about wasting his life, and continued to visit him because the narrator did not heed his warnings. The narrator turns to alcoholism, and wastes his life drinking.

answer: The narrator was a spoilt kid who lived life on the edge. He resided with his parents from his teen years up until he was older. When he was sixteen, he got a visit from the ghost of an old man. This old man visited him because he wanted to warn him about living a reckless life and appreciating life a lot more. This could be because he foresaw the narrator's future and tried to warn him to live life more cautiously early in his life.

text: The narrator is visited by an ordinary man, not an old man.

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

What does the story say about why the narrator referred to the old man's ghost as the ordinary man?

answer: The story says that the narrator referred to the ghost as the "ordinary man" because he was utterly uninteresting and unremarkable in appearance. Despite not really understanding what it meant to be warned by the ordinary man, the narrator grew accustomed to him and eventually accepted this visitor into their life. However, it is later revealed that the ordinary man is actually the narrator's grandfather, and he warned the narrator of the dangers of wasted life. Thus, the ordinary man serves as a reminder to the narrator, and a warning of the consequences of wasted potential.

text: Everything beyond the first sentence is not relevant to the question of why the ordinary man was called the ordinary man.

refinement: The story says that the narrator referred to the ghost as the "ordinary man" because he was utterly uninteresting and unremarkable in appearance.

text: The answer can be more specific about his appearance.

refinement: The story says that the narrator referred to the ghost as the "ordinary man" because he was utterly uninteresting and unremarkable in appearance. The ordinary man does not have sharp teeth or claws.

answer: He sat in the dark corner of the room and was piss-scared of his eyes snapping flames. The first time he spoke to him he tried to warn him about the subtle loss of life. The second time he spoke he told the narrator it was his own grandfather, and then afterwards mocked the narrator for his wasted life. The old man disappears with last bellowing the truth to the narrator before vanishing into thin air, warning him about the hidden dangers of leaving his life. He was pissed for his wasted life and nonchalant attitude.

answer: The narrator received irregular visits from the ghost of an old man as early as his teen years. He noticed that this ghost was physically unappealing without sharp teeth or claws, and every time the old man visited, he'd warn him about losing his life, which the narrator never understood. He nicknamed the ghostly visitor 'The Ordinary Man' because he took no cognizance of who he was. Finally, the narrator learned that the ordinary man was his grandfather after the old man revealed his identity to him on his death bed.

answer: No answer

text: The text does mention that the man had an ordinary appearance.

refinement: The ordinary man is called as such because he has a very ordinary looking appearance. He doesn't have any sharp teeth or claws.

answer: The narrator refers to the old man's ghost as the ordinary man because he believes the man is not an extraordinary being but an ordinary man. The narrator does not understand what the old man was trying to warn him about and this prompts the old man to give him final warning about the subtle loss of life. The old man believes that the narrator has lived a wasted life and will die alone.

text: The answer includes irrelevant information about what the old man does.

refinement: The narrator refers to the old man's ghost as the ordinary man because he believes the man is not an extraordinary being but an ordinary man.

An Australian man has been jailed for six months for posting nude pictures of his former lover on Facebook.

It is the first social networking-related conviction in Australian history and one of just a handful in the world, according to the Fairfax media.

Court documents revealed Ravshan ''Ronnie'' Usmanov, 20, of Sydney, posted six nude photos of his ex-girlfriend on Facebook shortly after they broke up. The photos showed his ex-girlfriend "nude in certain positions and clearly showing her breasts and genitalia."

Usmanov, a credit controller for a shipping company, reportedly told police:

"I put the photos up because she hurt me and it was the only thing [I had] to hurt her."

The Sydney Morning Herald reported that Usmanov emailed his girlfriend after he posted the photos to Facebook, saying: “Some of your photos are now on Facebook.” The woman, who was not identified, pleaded with Usmanov to take down the photos. When he refused, she called the police.

Deputy-Chief Magistrate, Jane Mottley, said: "New-age technology through Facebook gives instant access to the world. Facebook as a social networking site has limited boundaries. Incalculable damage can be done to a person’s reputation by the irresponsible posting of information through that medium. With its popularity and potential for real harm, there is a genuine need to ensure the use of this medium to commit offenses of this type is deterred.”

In 2010, the Dominion Post reportedon New Zealand man Joshua Simon Ashby, 20, who was sentenced to four months in jail for posting a naked photo of his ex-girlfriend on Facebook.

His act was described as one of "irresponsible drunken rage" by presiding judge, who also said: "Technology can't be used in this way. You would do incalculable damage to someone's reputation."

Usmanov's ex-girlfriend, who Fairfax chose not to identify, had ended their relationship and moved out of their shared home less than three months before he posted the photos.

Fairfax cited Australian privacy experts as saying the case has exposed the ''tip of the iceberg'' of online offenses that were rarely punished.

David Vaile, executive director of the cyberspace law and policy center at the University of New South Wales, said online harassment was not taken as seriously as physical offenses.

''There are very few convictions under harassment and indecent publication, he told Fairfax. "It's not treated as the same way as, say, breaking into a bank website. There is more police support for criminal damage. In this case, he didn't slash her tires in an act of revenge. He slashed her reputation.''

The legality or otherwise of posting nude photos of others without their permission in the US is unclear, though a Google search reveals several web forums devoted to the topic, including this one.

In sentencing Usmanov, Mottley reportedly said: "New-age technology through Facebook gives instant access to the world. Facebook as a social networking site has limited boundaries. Incalculable damage can be done to a person's reputation by the irresponsible posting of information through that medium. With its popularity and potential for real harm, there is a genuine need to ensure the use of this medium to commit offenses of this type is deterred.

''The harm to the victim is not difficult to contemplate: embarrassment, humiliation and anxiety at not only the viewing of the images by persons who are known to her but also the prospect of viewing by those who are not. It can only be a matter for speculation as to who else may have seen the images, and whether those images have been stored in such a manner which, at a time the complainant least expects, they will again be available for viewing, circulation or distribution.''

Usmanov's lawyer, Maggie Sten, had argued his was not a ''serious offense,'' to which Mottley fired back: ''What could be more serious than publishing nude photographs of a woman on the internet, what could be more serious?''

She added: ''It's one thing to publish an article in print form with limited circulation. That may affect the objective seriousness of the offense but once it goes on the worldwide web via Facebook it effectively means it's open to anyone who has some link in any way, however remotely.''

JAN WILLEM STORM VAN LEEUWEN (born 1941, Dutch East Indies)[1] is a consultant in chemistry and energy systems. Storm van Leeuwen received his Master of Science, physical chemistry, at the Technical University Eindhoven. He is a senior scientist at Ceedata Consultants. He also develops courses for chemistry teachers for the Open University at Heerlen. He is the secretary of the Dutch Association of the Club of Rome. His two fields of expertise are technology assessment and life cycle analyses of energy systems, focussed on sustainability aspects. He published numerous reports and articles on various topics related to energy and environment, also in peer-reviewed scientific journals.[2]

Nuclear energy study

He is best known for the paper _Nuclear power the energy balance_ that he wrote with Philip Smith (also named _Stormsmith studies_), where they analyzed the energy payback from the entire nuclear power system. The energy inputs were calculated based on various assumptions and guesses about the technologies used in uranium production, rather than actually measuring them. They concluded that the major parameter determining the energy balance was the grade of the uranium ore, and ore grades lower than 180 ppm do not yield an energy gain when used in the nuclear fuel cycle.[3]

The study was heavily criticized, such as a rebuttal by researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institute.[4] With further criticism from Sevior and Flitney who issued the following statement:[5][6]

  _We compared the predicted energy cost [using Storm van Leeuwen's study[7]] of Uranium mining and milling for Ranger, Olympic Dam and Rössing to the energy consumption as reported. All are significantly over predicted (5 PJ, 60 PJ and 69 PJ vs 0.8 PJ, 5 PJ and 1 PJ respectively). [...]_

  _The energy consumption is predicted to be so large that is comparable to the energy consumption of a particular sub-section of the economy. In the case of Rössing, the over prediction is larger than the energy consumption of the entire country of Namibia._

Storm van Leeuwen noted that :

  _The method of Sevior and Flitney based on financial data appears to me full of hidden assumptions, bookkeeping problems, statistical pitfalls and uncertainties._

The paper has been used by anti-nuclear organizations to claim that nuclear power is not clean enough to be considered a part of a clean energy mix.[8]

Other papers

Storm van Leeuwen also presented his previous work as part of another non-peer reviewed controversial paper “_Secure Energy? Civil Nuclear Power, Security and Global Warming_”,[9] published by a think tank, the Oxford Research Group, an institute unaffiliated with Oxford university, in which it argues nuclear power is not a long-term reducer of greenhouse gas emissions.[10]

His original results has been used in a study[11] -'' Life cycle energy and greenhouse gas emissions of nuclear energy: A review. Energy Conversion and Management -'' with several modifications.

Storm van Leeuwen is recognized by Open Democracy as one of their notable authors.[12]
