R: lol, you wish!

G: *obviously!*

G: The kids will say, "why did you keep asking, Daddy?"

R: and just what will I say, in this hypothetical future?

G: You'll say, "I said yes because he told us about this day, with my perfect children and my handsome, romantic husband.  And I knew that was the future I wanted, and now it's come true, more perfect than I could ever imagine."

G: And then I'll kiss you deeply

G: And our children will say "ewww"

G: you have to tell!  For Science!

R: nope

R: A girl's gotta keep some secrets

G: Well, it seemed like a perfect future to me :-)

text:
JULES AIMÉ DEVAQUEZ (9 March 1899 – 12 June 1971), known as JULES DEWAQUEZ, was a French amateur footballer, who played for both club and country on the right wing. He was extremely short (1.69m) and renowned for his small moustache. By profession he was a technical draughtsman, but he became one of the most successful French players during the 1920s. As a player, he was an agile and fast dribbler, had a powerful shot and was also an extraordinarily strong header of the ball – unusual for someone of his size and playing position.

Playing career

Born in Paris, Dewaquez started his football career with US Saint-Denis, based in Saint-Denis, in 1915, before moving in 1917 to Olympique de Pantin (which became Olympique de Paris), where he won the French Cup in 1918, and was a finalist in 1919 and 1921.

His first international selection was on 18 January 1920 in a 9–4 defeat by Italy. In his next match, on 29 February he scored in a 2–0 victory over Switzerland, and appeared in all France's international matches in 1920, including two matches in the 1920 Olympics held in Antwerp, being eliminated in a 4–1 defeat by Czechoslovakia. He was selected for all the French internationals over the next two years, including a match against an England amateur XI on 5 May 1921, when he scored in a 2–1 victory. This was the first time in which a French national team had defeated its English equivalent. This game is recognised as a full international by the French Football Federation but not by the Football Association who consider it as an amateur match.[1] (Of the England players, only Bert Coleman, Alfred Bower and Albert Read were later selected for the full England XI.)

The first match against France officially recognized by the FA came on 10 May 1923, when Dewaquez scored France's 89th minute consolation goal in a 4–1 defeat, with England's goals coming from Kenneth Hegan (two), Charlie Buchan and Norman Creek.[2] The following year, on 17 May 1924, Dewaquez again scored France's goal in a 3–1 defeat against England, with England's goals coming from Vivian Gibbins (two) and Harry Storer.[3]

Dewaquez was a member of France's squad for the 1924 Olympic Games, held in Paris, where they were defeated 5–1 by eventual winners Uruguay, after defeating Lithuania 7–0 in the first round.

In the summer of 1924, he moved to Olympique de Marseille. His only international selection in 1925 was against England on 21 May, when he again scored in a 3–2 defeat. In this match, England's goalkeeper Freddie Fox had to leave the field in the 75th minute following a head injury sustained in a charge by Dewaquez when scoring his goal, and was prevented from completing his sole appearance for England. Following an earlier withdrawal by goalscorer Vivian Gibbins, England finished with nine men, but managed to hang on to win the game.[4]

He helped OM win the French Cup in 1926, when he scored twice in a 4–1 victory over AS Valentigney, and again in 1927 when he scored in a 3–0 victory over US Quevilly. He was now no longer an automatic choice for the French national team, but was, however, selected for France for the 1928 Olympics, held in Amsterdam, where France were eliminated by Italy 4–3. In 1929, he appeared in five of France's international matches, scoring twice – against England in a 4–1 defeat on 9 May[5] (England's goals were scored by Edgar Kail and George Camsell (2 each)) and in his final International appearance, in another 4–1 defeat against Belgium on 17 May. In his international career, he played 41 times scoring 12 goals, of which four came against England. He was captain four times and his pairing with Raymond Dubly as the two wingers until 1925 was one of the most exciting in Europe. His total of international appearances was the French record, until Étienne Mattler exceeded it in 1938.

By now, his amateur status was rather dubious; ostensibly he worked in the retail trade, but was in receipt of substantial bonus payments and expenses from OM and was in reality a “secret professional”. In 1930 he moved on to OGC Nice for three years, turning professional in 1932, before finishing his playing career with AS Béziers where he became a player/coach, finally hanging up his boots in 1934.

Career as a coach

After the Second World War, he became trainer at FC Grenoble, Olympique de Marseille, AS Aix-en-Provence and finally at Lyon OU.[6] After retiring from football, he became a departmental manager at one of the largest Renault dealers in Lyon.

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

What does the text say about the distinction between amateur and professional football?

answer: In 1872, the Association Football world adopted a rule only allowing amateur footballers to participate in tournaments. The rule requires players to not charge any fee for playing in games. However, this rule was later revised to include players who pay their own expenses, but the rule was almost impossible to enforce.

text: Unsupported response

text: Provide a response

refinement: Dewaquez played as an amateur, but his amateur status was rather dubious. He ostensibly worked in retail, but he received substantial bonus payments and expenses from OM, and was considered a "secret professional."

answer: In 1872, the Association Football world adopted a rule of only allowing amateur footballers to participate in tournaments, with the suggestion that all footballing players be given a rule, prior to joining a team, requiring them to not charge any fee for playing in games. However, this rule was later revised to include players who paid their own expenses, but the rule was almost impossible to enforce.

answer: The distinction between amateur and professional football was debated during "The controversy around “secret professionals”. The distinction between amateur and professional players was a contentious issue in French football throughout the 20th century. In particular was the selection of players such as Tarascon, the selection committee chairman, who, despite his “amateur” status, received sizeable bonuses in the form of gifts and gratuity payments, which were offered informally by clubs towards selected players known to be on their staff. The French football federation's regulations stated there should be a total separation between amateur and professional football teams; however, teams which were financially comfortable enjoyed the benefit of employing players who were, through the gifts, in receipt of substantial bonuses. The federation's regulations also stated that players and others connected with professional sporting clubs could receive gifts from their social contacts but not formal business connections. This rule was often broken, particularly by Marseille, the top-flight club with the highest payroll. The more established clubs, aware of amateur participation in international sport, allowed selected amateur players to take part by paying big money to persuade them. However, the French Syndicate of Football Amateurs, the official French association of amateur players, disagreed with the view that importing professionals into football was an appropriate solution to the problem of amateurism and petitioned the French federation to enforce sanctions upon clubs where players were breaching the rules. Furthermore, the Football League in the UK had begun its own crackdown on "secret professionals" since 1910, when they banned the punishment of players who substituted or trained with a club while maintaining hidden or secret financial transactions or concealed arrangements. The principle reasons to why the government and league disapproved of the amateur / professional sports was not only because of the breach of amateurism rules that occurred, but also due to the social issue: rewarding players for playing football could become problematic because it creates an unequal playing field in the sport and allows for consolidation of power for some. The Professional Footballers' Association (the PFA) has been campaigning for legally protected registation for players since 1893. It is the established PFAs campaign for professional status for the majority of their players of their time-pension arrangements, life insurance and compensation for job-caused injury that led to where the regulations through the Professional Sports Groups exist today."

answer: A distinction had emerged between the amateur and professional version of football by the 1920s, even if the ways of determining these things were not consistently the same everywhere. Dewazue was first selected in 1920, when amateur teams still existed, but it wasn't until after that that the distinction was officially made, and amateur matches stopped being officially sanctioned. There, teams would sometimes have one or more amateur players. Clubs sometimes paid bonuses to players. Sometimes, fans would pay to watch these matches.

text:
By the time you read this, the Texas Legislature probably will be close to passing a bill banning abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy and including provisions that will cause most women’s health clinics that provide abortions to close their doors.

An aside: Due to deadlines, the Independence Day holiday and the legislative process, this editorial went to “ether” prior to adoption of the bill. But this issue still matters because (a) lawmakers are all but certain to pass the abortion bill and (b) these proposals should become policy and/or practice, even if the “old” abortion laws still apply.

[knox new]Editor Marv KnoxWith new abortion laws in place, Texans can expect a significant increase in the number of babies born every year. That’s the whole point—to turn more pregnancies into live births.

We can expect the mothers of a multitude of these “extra” babies to be teens, unwed and/or poor. Those are the demographics of a significant proportion of women who choose abortions.

Since the moral impetus for reducing, if not eliminating, abortions is advocacy for life, then Texans should demonstrate our support for these babies. When you examine many of our current practices and policies, you understand why outsiders claim Texans are more concerned about fetuses than babies, children and teenagers.

Texas is among the nation’s leaders in child poverty, teen pregnancy, dropout rates and illiteracy. We’re also among the nation’s lowest-spending states on child poverty, teen pregnancy, dropout rates and illiteracy. Some people attribute these maladies to dependence on government, the product of a so-called welfare state. If that were true, then their incidence would be higher in states that spend the most on child welfare, anti-poverty programs and education, not the least-spending small-government states, like Texas.

A STRANGE DISPARITY

Ironically, conservative states composed of higher percentages of Bible-believing Christians—from Texas across the South—suffer the blights of child poverty, teen pregnancy, dropout rates and illiteracy much more promiscuously than their more secular counterparts. Those are the states many Texans and Southerners call “pagan” and “dark.”

This disparity is an affront to the name of Jesus. Small wonder unbelieving outsiders doubt the compassion of Christ and the credibility of Christians. We often treat people Jesus called “the least” worse than unbelievers do.

If Texans’ conservative moral values prompt our state to implement one of the nation’s most stringent abortion codes, then we should accept the responsibility for all those babies we will bring into the world. We need to do right by them.

CHURCHES LAGGING BEHIND

That means both enacting better laws and public programs that protect women and children, make certain no child goes hungry and ensure our young people receive quality education. And don’t dare claim that’s the job of the church, and the state should butt out. The church has demonstrated its unwillingness to rise to the occasion, and the enormity of the task is about to multiply. Maybe less than 10 congregations in the entire state come anywhere near caring for all the poor people in their community. Others lag far behind. Most don’t try. Moreover, a central task of Christian citizenship is public advocacy for the weakest and most vulnerable and championing the common good.

If we’re going to take care of babies spared from abortions, here’s where we start:

• ADOPTION. Streamline laws and practices to make Texas adoptions simple and inexpensive. A mother who carries her baby to term should know without a doubt that child can be placed in a loving “forever” family who will treasure and nurture it as their own.

Churches can support this by creating a culture of adoption—adoption as ministry—that provides a ready and willing supply of families who receive children.

• PARENTING. At-risk families of these children need the help of a variety of steps. They include …

More classes and other learning opportunities to provide basic-parenting skills. Churches particularly can provide these.

Changes in tax laws to benefit intact two-parent families.

Stronger incentives, as well as financial requirements, for fathers to remain in homes with mothers and their children.

Changes in the penal codes so nonviolent offenders of numerous crimes make appropriate restitution but are not locked up and removed from their homes. Research shows the No. 1 factor related to promiscuity of girls and violence of boys is absence of a father from their home.

• NUTRITION. Secure and strengthen public- and private-sector programs that ensure no child in Texas goes hungry. These changes need to accommodate programs for infants and preschoolers, as well as school-age children, not only during school sessions, but also holidays and summer.

• EDUCATION. Multiple changes will be required, including …

Expanded Head Start programs, to give young children in at-risk families greater opportunity to learn early and prepare for school.

Parental training, so moms and dads understand the educational system, the requirements of schools and how they can help their children learn. For some, expanded adult literacy and remedial adult education is needed. Churches can play a huge role.

Tutoring for children at all levels. Churches must provide the people-power to make this possible.

Modification of middle school and high school curriculum to expand vocational training and broaden vocational options. Our state economy increasingly will depend upon well-trained workers who did not attend college.

These are just a few ideas. If we all turn our hearts and minds toward unconditional compassion and care for the all the baby Texans, we will develop more and better responses.

We must start now, before they are born.

Phillip couldn't remember what he had done before he passed out. In fact he didn't even remember waking up, really, or even where he was.  It was a dark cold night... or at least it seemed like it was cold, Phillip noticed a light snow forming on the grassy ground, yet he felt nothing. He had no time to ruminate over this strange lack of sensation as a horribly tremendous hunger unlike any he had ever experienced wrecked his entire body. He began to remember all the foods he loved... but strangely, none of them seemed appetizing. His stomach felt like an empty cave, yet he could not bring himself to even imagine eating a hamburger or a hotdog. He shook off the strange thought and continued limping towards the only source of light he could see in the distance. Limping? He had not noticed he had been limping too, he still felt no pain anywhere in his body. As he continued to strain his eyes toward the light, a silhouette of a man appeared before his eyes. Finally a savior... But something was not right, the hunger in his stomach ignited with the sight of this mysterious person. He could feel saliva forming in his mouth. He needed to stop walking for a second , to try to piece things together, but in horror he realized he couldn't. He was not in control of his body, and whatever was wanted to devour this man before him. “Please” he thought. “Please don't do this”. His jaws flew open as he inched closer to the man, mere feet  away from his-

A loud bang rang out through the formerly quiet graveyard as the bullet pierced the skull of the walking corpse, sending skull fragments and tiny pieces of brain matter spewing everywhere. The corpse slumped to the ground, dead once more. The Watcher lowered his pistol and tried to wipe the blood that had formed on his jacket.

“Christ”, He whispered to himself, looking at the grave from which the thing had emerged , “ that's the fifth one today.”

text:
It's a pleasant summer afternoon in Omaha, Nebraska. The sunset is nearing and the airport looks nice. The grass outside is in that half dead half alive state. We're all familiar with that grass. We're waiting for our flight, as always, so I decide to look around for the hotties, as always. Fortunately I saw some this time, two of them. One was a blue eyed blonde, the other was either a really tan white girl or a Latino, with brown eyes and brown hair. They both were wearing blue jeans and looked my age. I check them both out, not so discreetly, and the blonde would not look over where as the other looked over every once and a while. By the time I caught her eye for the third time, I sent a smile. She noticed. We then started to board the plane. This was Southwest, so there's no assigned seating and we all line up in the order of what place ticket we got. The blonde was a few boarding places ahead of me, where as the other was a boarding group behind me. We got on the plane and it's time to pick a seat. When I got on I saw the blonde sit down. I look over a few times and she doesn't seem interested. Now I have two options: do I take the seat next to the blonde or sit down somewhere else and hope the other one sits next to me? I ended up choosing the other one. I took a window seat in an empty row right on the wing a few rows behind the blonde. There are two empty seats to the left of me. The rest of the group boards, no one sits next to me. The start of the next group boards, no one sits next to me. Then I see her enter the plane. I see her and she sees me, I send a half smile and she looks away. She walks closer, closer, closer and then she's at my seat. Without making eye contact she sits down in my row with a seat in between us. Perfect, everything great except the seat between us. The rest of everyone boards the plane and thank-god-baby-jesus the seat between us remains open. I didn't talk to her. I think to myself 'Ok, once the plane takes off I'll start talking.' We get the safety lecture and go down the runway. We are starting to take off when I see her start to plug in her headphones, dammit there goes that plan. I'll take it though, as I feel luck's been on my side thus far. New plan, I'll talk to her once they get drink orders, as she'll have to take off her headphones. In the meantime, I fidget with my phone and bounce around between shitty games and music. Then the drink person comes by. "What do you want?," He asks. "Hot chocolate, please." I respond. "And I'll have a cranberry (something)." She says. Her earphones are out so I strike. "So... Are you from Oma... Nebraska or Colorado?" I ask. "What?" She replies in a sweet voice as if she's interested with what I'm saying. "Where are you from?" I say in a cleaner voice this time. "Colorado."
"Oh cool, what city?"
"Colorado Springs."
This answer was better than somewhere in Nebraska, but still an hour away from where I live.
"Cool."
"Where are you from?" She asks. Somehow this caught me off guard. I guess everything catches someone that doesn't talk to girls that often off guard.
"Uh... Greenwood Village."
We then have some small talk over the next few minutes. I find out she's a young sophomore, just like me. Then I run out of things to talk about, so I resort to my phone. By then I found out she played Volleyball and where her hometown is, that's about it. I formed my next plan of action soon after that; I ask her what her name is when we get our drinks. Perfect. It happens and I tell her my name, she tells me hers and I shake her hand (are you supposed to do that?). Somehow I was too caught up in thinking of what to say next that I completely forgot her name. Now at this point I could make up something for you, but I don't want to wreck my mental image of 'her' with a name. I'll just remember beautiful 'her' as 'her.' I actually had a plan this time of what to talk about. I ask her where she has visited, and she gives me a list. That conversation develops to where I'm happy, and then I have an opportunity to tell a story. Now I'm comfortable. I tell her the story about how I almost got ran over in Albuquerque, and she's gasps and laughs. Perfect. We then talk for the rest of the flight, and we laugh a lot. We then land and it's time to make a real move. We stand up and there are a lot of people close to us, so I decide to confess later. She then says she has all her bags with her and by then I knew I had to tell her soon as I wouldn't be able to at baggage claim. We start to walk down the jetway, and the following happened:
"So you know how you asked me earlier why I sat near the back of the plane?" I say.
"Yeah."
"I did it because I was hoping I would sit next to you."
"Oh, ok."
"Yeah. So do you have a boyfriend?"
"Kind of. There's this kid in Nebraska that I try to have a long distance thing with, but it doesn't really work out."
"Oh, ok."
At this point I could have asked for her number but there's no use, we live an hour away from each other and I don't have a car. We then get to the gate.
"Nice talking to you." She says. "Yeah." I reply with a smile.
That was it between us, I saw her walk away and then I went to the bathroom. As I was walking towards the train in the airport, I saw her get on, and it left. I was too far away to get on the train. That was the last thing I saw of her, her back and her bottom in those blue jeans.
If I could do it all over again I would probably have gotten her Instagram. Although, maybe it's better that I didn't, I now get to keep this memory of her and not see her get together with someone through Instagram. I'll never know, though, as this is all I have of 'Her'.

title: [NF] Her

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

Summarize the theme of this story.

answer: The theme of this story is continuation of hope in the pursuit of love. Despite the obstacles standing in the protagonist's way, they remain hopeful and continue to pursue what they want. They first see an attractive girl and then spend the rest of their flight trying to build a connection with her. Though they are unsuccessful in developing a relationship, they remain hopeful and continue to chase love.

answer: This story is about a boy's long-distance, long-time love interest.

answer: The theme of this story is being attracted to someone and making a connection despite the obstacles to physical distance keeping them apart.

answer: The theme is sometimes you should accept what you get. The narrator seemingly drives home this point in the final paragraph when they address the "what-ifs". Maybe the brief connection with this girl needed to be sufficient and it wasn't meant to be anything more.

answer: The theme of this story is a young boy's pursuit of a girl he only sees at the airport.

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

Summarize the plot twist.

answer: The narrator so far had delighted in this girl's ongoing engagement of his advances, but there is a setback when they ask her if she's seeing someone. She is, and that usually means the end of a pursuit. However, the double twist comes when she says it's long distance and therefore not going well. It's not clear why the narrator does not interpret that as a green light.

answer: The narrator is nervously waiting for his flight to land. He meets a girl and introduces himself. Immediately after, he messes up and has to suggest to her that they meet again. While the narrator ends up on the same train as her, it turns out she had moved on to another train. This means they could not meet again.

text: The ending is wrong-there are no trains in this story, period. In reality, she had a boyfriend.

refinement: The narrator is nervously waiting for his flight to land. He meets a girl and introduces himself. Immediately after, he messes up and has to suggest to her that they meet again. She says she has a boyfriend, so the dalliance comes to a conclusion.

answer: The protagonist sees a girl he likes, but is scared to speak to her on a plane. While on the plane, she walks to the seat next to him and he starts to chat with her. Eventually, he works up the courage to ask her about her relationship status, to which she informs him that she has a long distance relationship with someone back home. At the end of the trip, she leaves without the protagonist getting her phone number or any other contact information.

answer: The protagonist meets the beautiful girl on the plane and forms a connection. However, she is from many miles away and furthermore she has a boyfriend back home. Feeling regret, the protagonist realizes he never got her Instagram or phone number and is left with just the memory for the rest of his life.

answer: It is revealed near the end of the story that the narrator is actually on a flight from Denver to Albuquerque. She sits next to a guy she finds attractive, and they fall in love on the plane. She asks him what he's doing here, and suggests they go out, but he says he has to go back home. It turns out that he lives in N.O. They make small talk, which eventually leads her to mention that she's going to Colorado and he has put his bag in with hers. After they land and are separated they touch hands and she heads to the bathroom. The narrator falls in love and tries to call her, but she changes her phone number and doesn't answer his calls. He tries to meet her, but it turns out she lives in N.O and is in a relationship. He had only one chance, and there weren't any repeat flights.

text: This is highly exaggerated- they speak only for that duration, he finds out she has a boyfriend, doesn't get any of her social media info, and never sees or talks to her again.

refinement: The narrator has been chatting this girl up their entire flight, and she has seemed into talking. At the end, as they collect their baggage, he confesses to her that he had wanted to sit by her and asks if she has a boyfriend. She informs him that she does, but it's not going great as they are long distance. The narrator does not get any of her social media information, and that's the last time they speak.

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

Summarize what the narrator could have done instead of parting ways.

answer: The narrator should have asked for the girl's number. They could also have talked to her at the baggage claim.

answer: The narrator could have asked for her number and made an effort to stay in contact with her. Even though they live an hour apart and one does not have access to a car, there are still ways for the two to stay in touch. This way, the two could possibly lead to something more in the future.

answer: He could have asked her for her number or possibly asked for her Instagram account. He could have started online flirting before meeting her to have the first date. He could have even told her that his dad owns a company, which is what he was going to tell her at baggage claim, and she might have felt flattered that he was trying to impress her.

answer: They could have gotten her phone number or her social media information. If they had felt particularly ballsy, they could have pried a bit more into the situation with her current boyfriend. Maybe she told them it wasn't going well because she knows it's over and wants an excuse to leave. However, that interpretation could lead to unwanted advances.

answer: Instead of parting ways, the narrator could have asked for the girl's phone number. This would make it possible for them to reconnect in the future.


text:
I worked with a guy who was well known on the job for being a real "playa". There were many guys there (over 100) but then we started getting temporary female workers who would work a few days at a time. Some stayed just a few days, others a few months. Of course all the guys went crazy always trying to talk to all the hot new girls who came through the workplace. But one guy there was by far the most successful of all. He always got the hottest, cutest girls. And they quickly fell for him. Some head over heels.

The fellas joked about it but we just didn't get it. This guy was the shortest guy in the workplace. Just from 5'2" to 5'4" at the most. But over the years I saw him with the hottest girls of all and eventually when he got married it was to a supremely beautiful and sweet woman who any guy would want.

Whenever anyone asked him how he did it and what his secret was he would just avoid the discussion and say "Nothing. I just get to know them. I usually don't even hit on these women...and if I do they don't even realize it. A lot of times the women get impatient and ask me to take them out after work or make the first move."

He also said something I'll never forget. "Most guys don't know how to be a woman's friend. I do. That's the only secret I have."

Still not sure how he did it but the women fell for him quickly and I've seen this little guy with models and he's dated all types of women from black, white, latino, asian, poor and rich girls. Girls much younger and girls older than him. Short girls and even very tall girls. I mean 6' in heels and they were crazy about him.

Ever known a guy like this? What gives here? There's gotta be more to it than this. And NO he had no more money than anyone else and was definitely not generous with it. In fact women would spend their money on him and cook lunch and bring it to work for him. I really wish I could find this guy and learn his secrets. Anyone have any ideas how he could do this?

UPDATES:

question: How tall was the guy who always got girls?

answer: The guy who always got girls was 5'2" to 5'4" at the most.

answer: He was 5'2" to 5'4" at the most.

answer: The guy who always got girls was between 5'2" and 5'4" tall.

answer: 5'2" or 5'4"

text: According to the passage, the said guy's height is not stated to be either 5'2" to 5'4".

question: What does the guy say his secret is to get girls?

answer: According to the passage, the guy says that his secret is that he is good friends with women.

text: According to the passage, the guy did not say explicitly that he is "good friends with women".

refinement: According to the passage, the guy says that his secret is that he knows how to be good friends with women.

answer: He says that he gets to know them and doesn't hit on them.

answer: He says that he is a woman's friend.

answer: Over 100.

answer: Over 100.

answer: There were over 100 guys working at the workplace.

answer: A beautiful woman.

text: The passage ascribes more than one quality to the woman.

answer: The guy got married to a beautiful and sweet woman.

answer: A beautiful and sweet woman.

question: Write a ~1 sentence summary.

answer: The author of the passage is asking how a guy who is short and not wealthy can date women who are taller and more attractive than him.

text: The answer does not exactly reflect the question posed by the narrator.

refinement: The author of the passage is asking if anyone knows the real secret to making girls fall in love with guys.

answer: The narrator describes a guy who was well known for being a playa at his workplace.

answer: The author discusses a former co-worker who had great success with the ladies and wonders what his secret might have been.

answer: This guy has a knack for attracting women, despite being shorter than average. He claims that his secret is simply being a good friend to them, but it's unclear what exactly makes him so successful.

Essence Of Arcadia - Aromatherapy Made Beautiful

I have always been a fan of having scents wafting gently around the house

~~to get rid of all the boy smells~~
. My husband likes to burn incense/joss sticks and I've always been a fan of scented candles, wax melts and diluted essential oils.

_First a little background. What is Aromatherapy?_

  _Aromatherapy, also referred to as Essential Oil Therapy, can be defined as the art and science of utilizing naturally extracted aromatic essences from plants to balance, harmonise and promote the health of the mind, body and soul. It seeks to unify physiological, psychological and spiritual processes to enhance your innate healing process._

 Prior to Christmas I was trying out some new essential oils that had been sent to me by Becky at ESSENCE OF ARCADIA along with a 'recipe book' which explained what each oil was to be used for and how to mix different oils to create different moods.

[Essence of Arcadia - aromatherapy / essential oils to unify physiological, psychological and spiritual well-being. Made in Britain.]

First of all, ESSENCE OF ARCADIA is a British company - and you know how I feel about the importance of supporting home-grown businesses. They manufacture their own products (cutting out the middle man) and concentrate on producing great quality items at affordable prices. Also, all the essential oils are 100% pure and have the relevant certification so you know you're in safe hands.

What I love about the ESSENCE OF ARCADIA shop is that they not only sell the oils but also the diffusers to atomise the diluted oils.  For me, this was a new experience as the diffusers plug into a power point and come with a built-in timer which negates the need for tea-light candles and the possibility of your water/oil mix running dry. I have been trying out the Luxury Diamond shaped glass diffuser but also have my eye on the wooden style Pebble diffuser.

Two of of my favourite scents are vanilla and ylang ylang. One of the first perfumes that was ever bought for me (thanks, Mum) was a Oscar de la Renta copy with a ylang ylang base from one of those perfume parties that were so popular in the 1980's and, reading up on it here, I now know that it balances emotions and hormones. Maybe there was some deeper thinking going on with Mum there...

This lead to the ylang ylang oil being one of the first that I tried out and now I'm all calm and mellow which makes a lovely change.  Other recipes that I'm going to be trying out is one for 'confidence, concentration and memory' which mixes grapefruit, basil, bergamot and lavender (I can use this in the shower) and a 'liquid sunshine' one which incorporates peppermint, frankencense and bergamot which boosts energy.

All products are beautifully packaged so come fully protected when delivered or will make fantastic gifts. You can find all current prices in the ESSENCE OF ARCADIA online store so here are some discount codes to get you started:

-   _15% off - Essential Oils 6 Set - ESSENCECODE1_
-   _15% off  - Essential Oils 14 Set - ESSENCECODE2_
-   _15% off  - Pebble Diffuser - ESSENCECODE3_

(enter the code when prompted at checkout) and do go and say 'hello' to them on Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest.

DO YOU HAVE ANY AROMATHERAPY / ESSENTIAL OIL RECIPES THAT YOU'D LIKE TO SHARE WITH ME. I'D LOVE TO TRY SOME NEW ONES OUT!

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

Why is it important to support home-grown businesses?

answer: It's not stated in the article.

answer: Shops in Britain like Essense of Arcadia are important because they manufacture their own products and concentrate on providing good quality at affordable prices.

text: The text does not give details about why it's important to support a home-grown business. This answer talks exclusively about the characteristics of Essence of Arcadia, one of the home-grown businesses the narrator supports. It should not be mentioned because it indicates that other home-grown businesses are like Essence of Arcadia. The model should consider reasoning that no such information was provided within the text to answer the question.

answer: Shops in Britain like Essense of Arcadia are important because they manufacture their own products, concentrate on providing good quality at affordable prices, and are British.

answer: It is important to support home-grown businesses because it keeps the money in the community.

text: The answer is outsourced, even though not wrong. It should indicate that the text does not talk about the importance of supporting home-grown businesses.

refinement: Although the text does not state it, it is important to support home-grown businesses because it keeps the money in the community.

answer: It is important to support home-grown businesses because it keeps the money in the community.

answer: That information can't be found

“There are times, as an educator, when you can look into a student’s eyes and see their energy, their passion for learning, and you glow - knowing that you have helped foster their love of knowledge and understanding of the world around them. This was not one of those times,” Alex began softly, his eyes vacant as he tried to count the number of dots in the fiberboard ceiling tiles.

“In fact, as I lowered my gaze across the sprawling red-oak conference table I found my eyes resting upon a slack-jawed tenth grader who has developed a habit of making his instructors cry – precisely the last problem I needed to deal with this Friday,” he paused for effect, but Dean Fisher would deny him the satisfaction of acknowledgement while he scribbled in his notes.

“We sat in silence for what seemed like hours before I could reconcile what had to be done. Alex Decker would have to be put to death-“

“Thank you, Mr. Decker, but I have my own inner monologue to narrate, and it does not need any coercion into murdering a student of Williamson High School.”

The room was still. Dean Fisher was not a man who physically commanded respect, but he had a gift for declaring things with authority. The room remained still until Dean Fisher removed his reading glasses and put down his crossword puzzle.

Alex raised an eyebrow.

“Mr. Decker,” Dean Fisher let the name roll off his tongue as if he were trying it out for the first time, “Why are you making my employees cry?”

Alex resumed counting fiberboard dots.

“Mrs. Clemens won’t actually tell me what you said or did to her...”

Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty, thirty-one…

“…this makes it hard for me to administer discipline.”

Thirty-one…wait, shit.

“But of course you know that. But what you didn’t know is that Daphne Clemens took her own life thirty minutes ago at her home in Clarksville.”

Alex felt the words hit him at once, sending his stomach plummeting to the center of the universe.

“She…what?” His lips were numb as he formed the words.

“She offed herself! No note, no nothing. Nobody knows what to make of it.”

“I…I don’t even know what to-“

“Okay, I’m fucking with you, Alex.  But for the love of god you have to stop calling your instructors fat.”

The relief rolled over Alex’s body in waves and he sunk into the leather armchair feeling both emancipated and savagely exploited.

“I didn’t call her fat; I didn’t call her anything.”

“You replaced her birthday cake in the faculty lounge with a replica that read “Congratulations on your thirty-five year pregnancy.”

“I want my lawyer.”

“You’re fifteen.”

“Touche,” Alex shrugged and sunk back into the armchair.

Dean Fisher studied the boy carefully.

“Dean Fisher studied the boy carefully. He definitely had to be assassinated-“

“Get out of my office, Alex.”

Alex stood, gathering his books and slinging his book bag over one shoulder lazily. At the door he spun on his heels, nonchalantly tossing a polished, delicious red apple towards his administrator.

It nonchalantly collided with Dean Fisher’s left eye with a sickening thwap. The swelling began immediately.
