The days are getting longer. The sun, hanging lower in the sky. Soon enough, you’re going to find yourself in the midst of another polar vortex, covering each and every square inch of skin in a desperate attempt to keep the cold air from freezing you to your very core. Before that happens, though, it’s important that you do all that is necessary to prep for the frigid weather to come—by switching out your normal grooming products for their winter-ready counterparts.

Like squirrels need to gather nuts and bears need to eat a whole bunch of stuff, or whatever, you need to revamp your product choices before your skin can comfortably hibernate through the long, cold depths of winter. (Unless, of course, you want it to look like a dry, chapped mess when it reemerges come April. In which case, by all means keep using what you’re using.) Likewise, we’ve put together a list of necessary trade-ins you can make now, before the weather really gets real and it’s too late.

TURN YOUR MOISTURIZER UP TO 11

You’re already using a moisturizer, right? Good. Unfortunately, though, with whipping winds, frigid air and “wintry mix” turning the world around you into a veritable tundra for the next few months, irritating your skin exponentially more than normal, ordinary lotion simply isn’t going to cut it. Bummer. Luckily, there’s stronger stuff out there. Formulated with the most oomph per ounce, Clinique for Men Maximum Hydrator guarantees to sooth skin even in the most brutal conditions.

EXFOLIATE AWAY THE ITCH

Have you ever noticed that the colder it gets, the more you find yourself scratching? Well, that’s not the wool sweater you’re wearing. No, it’s actually more likely due to things like central heat, which suck moisture out of the air, leaving your skin parched in the process. Quell the resulting itchiness by swapping out your normal bar soap for one with a heavy-duty exfoliator. Besides, well, scratching the itch, it’ll get rid of dead cells and increase blood flow to the skin, encouraging the body to repair the damage.

UPGRADE YOUR FACE DEFENSE

Ordinarily, as long as you’re following general skin care rules, you don’t much extra for your face to look its best. But winter isn’t ordinary, and with your face being the one swath of skin truly exposed all day, you’re going to need more than just genetics and a touch of moisturizer to keep to it up. Aesop’s Elemental Barrier Cream should do the trick; it’s designed to provide your visage with a blockade against difficult weather, so you don’t immediately look a mess everytime you walk outside.

NEVER FORGET YOUR LIP BALM

While we’re on the topic of your face, let’s focus in a bit on one part in particular: your lips. Turns out, they’ve got some of the thinnest skin on your entire body, so it’s important to keep them protected if you don’t want them cracked and painful all season long. The trouble is, if you’re anything like us, losing lip balms is basically a pastime. Which is exactly why Ernest Supplies has a monthly subscription option for their products. So that next time you lose a tube of Lip Protect, you can rest easy knowing that another is on it’s way.

KEEP UP THE SPF

Just because you’re not going to be lounging on the beach for the next few months, doesn’t mean than you can let your guard down when it comes to UV-protection. This is especially true in particularly snowy locales, as any skier will tell you, as the sun’s rays have a tendency bounce off brilliant white snow and give you a hearty mid-winter sunburn. Make sure that doesn’t happen by putting a little SPF into everything you use.

Actually, that’s a good rule year-round.

question: Summarize what the text states about the need for having a good moisturizer.

answer: With whipping winds, frigid air, and the the "wintry mix" it is important to have a good moisturizer on in order to prepare for the cold. It is important to prepare to keep your skin from looking dry and chapped after being exposed to the cold weather for an extended period of time. Since skin becomes irritated as the temperatures drop, it is important to swap out moisturizer for one that is formulated with more oomph per ounce.

critique: The answer omits the effects of the cold on the skin.

critique: The text doesn't mention the "wintry mix"

critique: The answer should mention what happens if one doesn't use a good moisturizer.

critique: The answer is a copy of the first paragraph.

critique: The answer should mention the benefits of using a good moisturizer.

critique: The answer should include the fact that skin irritation is caused by whipping winds and frigid air.

critique: The answer doesn't mention the advantages that the right kind of moisturizer can offer. A good moisturizer has a heavy-duty exfoliator and is designed to force moisture that keeps the skin moist.

question: Summarize how the text advertises the Kiehls Ultimate Man Body Scrub.

answer: The text advertises the scrub by explaining its benefits. It claims that the scrub scratch relief for irritated skin due to central heating and whipping winds that are common in the winter. It also claims that the exfoliator gets rid of dead cells and increases blood flow to the skin. The text also says that using this exfoliator will encourage the body to repair the damage. Furthermore, the text claims that switching to this exfoliator is important before it is too late.

critique: The text doesn't claim that the exfoliator gets rid of dead cells and increases blood flow to the skin. It says that it will get rid of dead cells and increase blood flow to the skin.

critique: The text doesn't claim that the exfoliator will encourage the body to repair the damage.

critique: The text doesn't say that switching to this exfoliator is important before it is too late.

critique: The text doesn't claim the exfoliator is important before it's too late; the author says it's never too late to switch.

critique: The answer indiscriminately copies and pastes sentences from the text without analyzing the meaning behind those statements. In this section alone, the multitude of "the text also says" sentences have no bearing on the question's instruction: "Advertising the product..."

question: Summarize how the text advertises the use of SPF in the winter time.

answer: No answer

critique: While this response has a correct statement, the answer provided is not the correct answer. The correct answer should summarize all of the relevant information, instructions, and key points of SPF review in the article.

critique: The response misses to provide a response to the task.

question: Which of the items advertised in this text seem to be the most popular and the ones that generates the most sales?

answer: It seems the lip protect and the facial moisturizer with sunscreen are two of the most popular and well-priced items.

critique: The text does not say anything about the popularity of the items.

critique: The text doesn't say anything about the popularity of the items.

critique: This response is incorrect. The lip protect is the only item that is mentioned that is the cheapest.

The HERNDON HOME is a historic house museum and National Historic Landmark at 587 University Place NW, in Atlanta, Georgia. An elegant Classical Revival mansion with Beaux Arts influences, it was the home of Alonzo Franklin Herndon (1858-1927), a rags-to-riches success story who was born into slavery, but went on to become Atlanta's first black millionaire as founder and head of the Atlanta Life Insurance Company. The house was designed by his wife Adrienne, and was almost entirely built with African-American labor. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2000,[1][2] and had previously been declared a “landmark building exterior” by the city of Atlanta in 1989.[3]

Description and history

The Herndon Home is located in Atlanta's Vine City neighborhood, adjacent to the campus of Morris Brown College (formerly the campus of Atlanta University) on the north side of University Place NW. It is a two-story rectangular structure, faced in brick, with a flat, balustraded roof, porches projecting from the sides, and a massive neoclassical entrance portico, supported by large paired columns. The entrance is framed by wide sidelight windows and topped by a semi-oval transom, all windows displaying etching and tracery. The building is capped by a full entablature and modillioned cornice. The flat roof is usable as an open terrace, although it was reported to be in poor condition in 2000. The building interior is elaborately fitted with original period wood, stone, and plaster. The main living rooms have murals on the wall depicting elements of the Herndon family history.[4]

The house was built in 1910 for Alonzo and Adrienne Herndon. Much of the building's design is credited to Adrienne, who was a drama teacher at Atlanta University, and had intended the rooftop terrace, from which the university campus was visible, as a performance venue. According to available documentation, all of the work on the mansion, except for its electrical and plumbing systems, was performed by African-American laborers and contractors.[5]

Alonzo Herndon was born into slavery in 1858, and was freed, while still a child, by the American Civil War. From this virtually penniless beginning, Herndon built a chain of barbershops in Atlanta, and in 1905 founded the Atlanta Life Insurance Company, which grew to become the nation's largest African-American-owned insurance company, and made him a millionaire. Herndon's son Norris continued to run Atlanta Life until his own death in 1955.[6]

The vacant Herndon Building on Auburn Avenue, where Alonzo built his business, was seriously damaged in the 2008 Atlanta tornado (which also passed very close to the Herndon Home), and was demolished in late April 2008.[7] The Herndon Building was one of three contributing properties in the Sweet Auburn Historic District associated with the life of Alonzo Herndon. The Atlanta Life Insurance Company Building and the Rucker Building are the other two.[8]

Herndon Foundation

The Herndon Home is now owned by the nonprofit Alonzo F. and Norris B. Herndon Foundation, which since 1983 has operated the home. The home is open for tours.[9] The foundation supports entrepreneurship.[10]

The Adventures of Mr. Paycheck

So, I know a guy. He’s a pretty good guy, but lately something just doesn’t seem right. His name is Mr. Paycheck. He comes to see me pretty regularly and is faithful about it too. But he never stays too long. Quite frankly, he’s a bit of a flake. Also, I think he steals from me.
He brings a gift of cash every time he comes over. He’s a bit stingy though. It seems that his generous gifts are directly related to how long I am gone from my house. I’ve almost developed a system to calculate just how much he will bring on his next visit, but I think this is where he flimflams me. After I do my calculations, I am joyous. “He’s bringing HOW much this time?,” I think to myself… Excited, I travel to his place of origin to pick him up and let our next adventure begin. But when I look at him, he seems thinner than I was expecting. He tells me that a feller by the name of Fica needed some immediate assistance and hell, Mr. Paycheck is a good guy so of course, he helps. “But what about the rest that I was expecting?” I ask. “Well, a Frenchman named Pension told me I should invest with him. And look! He gave me some beans too!” Ugh, alright Mr. Paycheck. What shall we do first? He said that he has some business to take care of before we go ANYWHERE and that I need to get my check book. More money? Why does he always need MY money? “Don’t worry,” he says “It’s for a good cause!” So I let the poor guy sign his name on a few of my checks. My side hurts a little, but it makes him feel important and grown-up. Alright! Let’s go buy some Snickers and tugboats! “Wait, wait, wait… I need to go to the grocery store.” I begin to cry because he ALWAYS spends just a LITTLE too much when he goes. But whatever, I’m used to it by now, so we go and get groceries. He gives them all to me, but if you ask me, the amount he buys SHOULD last until he comes again, but “F THAT!” he says. But my babies need shoes. AND WATER!!! “Maybe next time,” he mutters under his breath.
By now he has paid off his friends and went grocery shopping (and gas about two times) I turn to tell him a funny secret. I knew it would happen, but didn’t think it would be so soon this time. He was gone. All that he left was a little note with my bank account number on it.

The note reads as follows:

Dearest Chadrick,
“I know that we were supposed to have some good times on this visit, but I promise… NEXT time I come visit we can make your wildest dreams come true!
Regretfully so,
Mr. Paycheck

P.S. I left some peanuts in your bank account just in case you get hungry before I return. Just plain though, the honey roasted ones you enjoy so were just too expensive.”

And then it starts all over. I know he will return in 1 week and 6 days, and I look forward to it. So, I leave my house a little longer each time, hoping that he brings more with him on his next trip so that I can FINALLY go buy some Snickers and tugboats.

title: I sometimes write short (very short) stories.  This is one I wrote back when my paychecks were just a little smaller then they are now.

question: What does the story say about why Chadrik is upset?

answer: Chadrik is upset with Mr. Paycheck for being a flake and for stealing from him. He feels that Mr. Paycheck is stingy, and that he is a bit of a flake, and that he steals from him. Chadrik is also upset because he believes Mr. Paycheck is stealing from his bank account.

critique: Chadrik is upset because he believes Mr. Paycheck is stealing from his bank account.

text: "and that he is a bit of a flake, and that he steals from him." - redundant and should be removed.

category: coherence

question: What does the story say about what Chadrik does for a living?

answer: No answer

critique: The answer should mention that Chadrik is a paycheck.

critique: The story does not explicitly state what Chadrik does for a living, but it does say that his paycheck is smaller than it used to be.

Okay, it all started back in '73 I remember like it was yesterday because I just got a cool new hat and had lost it right away.  This friend of a friend calls me up out of the blue sounding like he was sweating his ass off. He needed a favor as he was having trouble erasing some some reel to reel. He trusted me because I helped him with some uhhh, paperwork. Anyway, He was all thankful and said,  "If you needed anything consider it done."

Now I hadn't had a vacation for a while and I always wanted to get rowdy in Europe so he set me up with an all access pass to Vatican city. Now if that sounds boring, it is. but hey, a vacay is a vacay.

I get over there and check the sights do all the touristy stuff, you know. Then it occurs to me to bust out the tequila I picked up at the duty free shop and started taking a few pulls. I *cannot* handle my tequila apparently because I start browning out.

So I stumble around until I ended up in a closet I thought saw one of those "sexy" confessional booths you hear about. Lo and behold, there is one of those goofy-looking orange and blue clown suits and a funny helmet.

After wandering around a little bit trying to walk it off. Though, I'm still taking pulls off that bottle for some reason.  Anytime somebody started to give me the 'ol rigmarole I would flash my pass and they were super nice. A little time passes and I'm in another closet probably for the same reason as the first but this time it's full of cleaning supplies.

Next thing I know, I'm prancing around St. Peter's Square with my broom "halberd" chasing a raccoon! I finally caught it after I smacked it with my near empty bottle. Now, I don't know if you have ever knocked out a small mammal but when you finally do it, you have no idea what to do with the darn thing. So call it divine inspiration but I come up with the craziest prank ever.

I dig through my English to Italian dictionary and pick out some things to say. I then find the dumbest looking youngest Swiss guard I can find and hand him the broomstick now covered in anointing oil and say, "have you seen these new training weapons, they are supposed to help with your pole handling." It's always dark in that place at night so he just takes it right out of my hand without noticing that a drunk guy handed him a broomstick. Of course, he then gets the grease on his hands he then laughs sarcastically like he got pranked and I'm being a jerk.

I pulled my trusty raccoon out of a vestment hamper and put the miter and a white sheet on him like a cape.  When the timing was just right I took the rest of my hooch and spit it in his face to wake the critter up.  I then shouted, "The holy father is possessed by the devil!" right in earshout of the guard. He runs in the room sees the miter and cute little papal cape on the freshly greased raccoon and starts trying to catch him.

Call me lucky, call me unlucky but right at that very moment the *actual* Holy Father walks in.  The guard practically shits himself out of embarrassment as the oily nocturnal creature flies out of his hands.  It lunges teeth snarling at (let's call him P Numero 6 because I don't want to say any names) and wouldn't ya know? It takes his damned ring finger straight off.

They ended up covering the whole thing up because they are used to doing that when they look bad. But I swear, I damn near almost undid the Second Vatican council that night.

They managed to reattach the finger but they could never find the ring. They think the raccoon must have pooped it out. That is what they say anyway. I have a different theory: He absorbed the power of the ring and somehow became consecrated. That raccoon straight up vanished from a locked room.  Normally, I would just think that odd but on some dark nights I hear something rummaging through my trashcans and the distinct sound of Latin chanting.

title: [HM] The Pope's Shit-List

question: Summarize the plot twist in this story.

answer: The narrator is in a closet in the Vatican when he sees a raccoon. He chases it around the square and finally catches it. He then decides to prank the Swiss guard by telling him he has a new training weapon. The guard takes the broomstick and the narrator then spits in the guard's face to wake the raccoon up. The guard then sees the raccoon and starts to chase it. The narrator then shouts that the Holy Father is possessed by the devil. The guard then sees the raccoon and starts to chase it. The Holy Father then walks in and the guard is embarrassed. The narrator then realizes that the raccoon took the guard's ring finger.

critique: The guard does not take the broomstick. He takes the anointing oil.

The narrator then realizes that the raccoon took the guard's ring finger.

question: Summarize what happens to the actual Holy Father.

answer: The actual Holy Father walks in on the prank and the guard tries to catch the raccoon. The raccoon lunges at the Holy Father and bites off his ring finger. The Holy Father is able to reattach his finger but the ring is never found. The raccoon vanishes from a locked room.

critique: The raccoon doesn't vanish from a locked room.

critique: The answer does not mention that the Holy Father is able to reattach his finger.

critique: It is not stated that the raccoon vanishes from a locked room.

critique: The raccoon doesn't vanish from a locked room. It vanishes from a room that was locked.

critique: The raccoon doesn't lunge at the Holy Father, it bites his finger.

text: The last sentence is not relevant.

text:
Despite the often-quoted statistic that women in the U.S. make 80 cents for every dollar earned by men, the actual figure varies depending on a woman’s race, geographic location and industry. Women of color, for example, have an even larger pay gap than white women. And women in certain fields, such as financial services, are further from pay parity than their peers in other professions.

Medicine has traditionally been one of those imbalanced fields — and the latest physician compensation report from Medscape, a medical news site for healthcare professionals, finds that the situation is getting worse for many doctors.

According to Medscape’s 2019 report, which polled about 20,000 U.S. doctors in 30 specialties, pay for physicians has risen by about 20% for both primary care physicians and specialists since 2015. But increases have not been equal for male and female doctors.

In 2018, male primary care physicians earned about 18% more than their female colleagues, according to the report. By 2019, that gulf had widened to 25% — meaning the average male doctor made $258,000 per year, while the average female physician earned $207,000. The pay gap among specialists was larger to begin with, but it narrowed slightly, from 36% in 2018 to 33% in 2019. The average male specialist’s salary is now $372,000, compared to $280,000 for female specialists.

A racial pay gap also persists in medicine, the report finds. Average income for a white doctor is $319,000, compared to $303,000 for Hispanic and Latino doctors, $300,000 for Asian doctors and $281,000 for black doctors.

In total, male doctors spend about 9% more time with patients each week than female doctors, according to the report, while women spend a bit more time on paperwork and administrative tasks. (That’s important, since a physician’s salary often depends at least partly on how many patients they see.) Women also tend to go into primary care or lower-paying specialties, while men often gravitate toward high-paying areas such as orthopedics, plastic surgery and cardiology.

Those disparities explain some of the pay gap, the researchers write, but other factors are likely at play.

Dr. Maryam Asgari, an associate professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School, co-wrote a recent viewpoint article in _JAMA_ about how to close the physician pay gap. (She was not involved with the Medscape report.)

“It’s not just about, are you given the same contract? It’s about, are you given the same support?” says Asgari, who says that she has faced situations where male colleagues were given better operating schedules that allowed them to see more patients, and therefore generate more revenue and income. “The problem is much more pervasive than people really understand. There’s a lot of implicit bias that’s at play. Sometimes implicit bias and male versus female styles can influence perception of productivity.”

To make significant progress, institutions will have to be transparent not only about pay, but also about how they’re assessing and working toward salary equity, Asgari says. “Figuring out how different institutions are gaining some transparency around the process, and figuring out what best practices are, will get us a long way toward rolling out more salary equity,” she says.

question: Summarize the social context of this article.

answer: The physician pay gap is a social issue that effects the medical profession specifically. Historically, the field of medicine has been skewed towards male doctors and specialists in general, and female doctors have been grossly underpaid when compared to their male counterparts in their time. Recent studies conducted by physicians have found that there is a significant "pay gap" throughout the profession when it comes to the longevity of time spent with patients and the workload on an average day. Most agencies that employ physicians tend to note that male doctors are given more time to see patients during the day than their female counterparts. However, Asgari believes that other factors are behind the "different" treatment of doctors overall.

critique: This is not a social issue, it is a demographic issue.

critique: The answer should mention the pay gap between male and female doctors.

critique: There's no information in the text to suggest that there is a 'pay gap' throughout the profession.

critique: The answer misrepresents the article by combining its summary with its social context. It also tries to connect to both the study and Asgari with its main point: a physician's gender affects their pay.

critique: "Most agencies that employ physicians tend to note that male doctors are given more time to see patients during the day than their female counterparts" is unattested.

critique: The article does not mention that the pay gap is a social issue.

critique: The answer is a bit too long and should be more concise.

critique: The answer is not relevant to the question.

critique: The answer is not clear and needs to be rewritten.

critique: The article does not indicate that most agencies note that male doctors are given more time to see patients during the day than their female counterparts.

critique: "Physician pay" is incorrect. The passage does not mention that "pay" is "paid" to physicians, but rather the standard salary for the profession.

critique: The first sentence is incorrectly phrased. The phrasing could be corrected to indicate that they are the primary caregivers in their households, which is the gender bias that the article talks about.

critique: The original text doesn't say anything about "most agencies that employ physicians"

critique: The first sentence is incorrect. The article doesn't state that it's a social issue.

text: The answer should also mential the pay gap between doctors of different racial backgrounds.

category: coverage

refinement: The physician pay gap is a social issue that effects the medical profession specifically.

question: Describe a few items that researchers also want to see examined in further studies about these pay disparities.

answer: Healthcare organizations aren't just big corporations with impersonal bureaucracy. According to the article, there are ingrained biases in choice of clinical specialties by race and gender. There's also the perception of productivity by colleagues, which could be affected by overt or implicit bias. And, much like the patients' health, these issues are intertwined.

critique: The response is not an answer to the question.

critique: There is no mention of health in the article.

critique: The answer is not related to the question.

critique: The final sentence is hard to understand.

critique: Does not mention the pay gap between women and men.

critique: These things aren't mentioned in the article.

critique:
"According to the article, there are ingrained biases in choice of clinical specialties by race and gender. There's also the perception of productivity by colleagues, which could be affected by overt or implicit bias. And, much like the patients' health, these issues are intertwined." - MOST of the article doesn't discuss gender, race, or the current nature of healthcare organizations. The insights in the fourth paragraph and a few others. The only unbiased thought about these disparities is that doctors spend about 20% less time with patients than female doctors, which excludes gender and race. A lot of preferences in clinical specialties are likely based from cultural bias.
" "The problems that underlie these issues of physician pay equity are complex and not easy to address. And the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform's report adds yet another layer to the complex dynamics of this issue."" is evidence for an issue in healthcare since the 1960s that continues to affect today - having everyone pay the same wages for their service will never happen, implying that there isn't much that could be done to make it happen.

critique: This answer is inaccurate and does not answer the question.

critique: This is inaccurate and not based on the passage. The answer should state that Asgari wants to see further research done with regard to pay inequality and transparency in how organizations assess and work towards salary equity.

critique: The answer is entirely made up and not found in the article.

critique: "Are there any critiques for the above answer?" - is a redundant question.

question: Summarize why this Medscape report was researched and compiled in the first place.

answer: The Medscape report was compiled in order to find out the fault lines within the pay gap as well as to identify several topical issues such as why women don't go into higher paying medical crafts such as cardiology. Though other factors are suspected, it is a big shortcoming that women are being paid less, regardless of their expertise levels or a man's.

critique: 'Though other factors are suspected. It is a big shortcoming that women are being paid less' is superfluous information. It should be omitted.

critique: The report was compiled to find out the fault lines within the pay gap.

The report was compiled to find out the pay gap between male and female doctors.

critique: The response is not a summary of the article.

critique: The article doesn't say why women are paid less.

critique: The article doesn't say anything about cardiology, so this response should be omitted

critique: The response misses to mention that the report was conducted to understand the pay gap in the medical field.

critique: "The Medscape report was compiled in order to find out the fault lines within the pay gap as well as to identify several topical issues such as why women don't go into higher paying medical crafts such as cardiology." - this is incorrect. It was compiled to find out the pay gap between male and female doctors.

critique: The answer is not related to the question.

critique: It's false that the report was "compiled in order to find out the fault lines within the pay gap as well as to identify several topical issues such as why women don't go into higher paying medical crafts such as cardiology."

critique: "Although other factors are suspected..." is not relevant to the question and should be removed.

question: Summarize what this article has to say about solutions for gendered pay inequality.

answer: The solutions are indirectly referenced and merely alluded to. The article acknowledges that the problem is pervasive and multi-factorial and calls for systemic solutions and institutional transparency regarding equitable hiring/promotion practices to both pay and support.

critique: The article does not call for systemic solutions and institutional transparency regarding equitable hiring/promotion practices to both pay and support.

critique: There is no direct mention to "solutions".

critique: The response inaccurately summarizes the text. The solutions are not indirectly referenced or merely alluded to.

critique: "The article acknowledges that the problem is pervasive and multi-factorial and calls for systemic solutions and institutional transparency regarding equitable hiring/promotion practices to both pay and support." - this is inaccurate because the article doesn't call for that.

critique: There is no information about the method of hiring or promotion.

critique: It's omitted that Dr. Maryam Asgari says that the problem is much more pervasive than people understand, and that she has faced situations where male colleagues are given better operating schedules that allow them to see more patients.

critique: The article does not call for transparency regarding support.

critique: "The article acknowledges that the problem is pervasive and multi-factorial and calls for systemic solutions and institutional transparency regarding equitable hiring/promotion practices to both pay and support." - this is repetitive and unnecessary.

critique: The article does not call for institutional transparency.

critique: It is omitted that Dr. Maryam Asgari, an associate professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School, co-wrote a recent viewpoint article in JAMA about how to close the physician pay gap. She says that she has faced situations where male colleagues were given better operating schedules that allowed them to see more patients, and therefore generate more revenue and income. "The problem is much more pervasive than people really understand. There’s a lot of implicit bias that’s at play. Sometimes implicit bias and male versus female styles can influence perception of productivity."

critique: The article does not call for systemic solutions or institutional transparency. It is the author of the article who calls for these things.

critique: The answer could be clearer in its pronoun use.

critique: The article does not call for systemic solutions, but rather for transparency.

critique: The answer should mention Maryam Asgari in a way that indicates that she might suggest some solutions to the pay gap.

text: A more accurate answer would be to say that to address the issue, institutions will need to be transparent about pay and about how they're working toward salary equity.

refinement: The solutions are indirectly referenced and merely alluded to. The article acknowledges that the problem is pervasive and multi-factorial and calls for systemic solutions and institutional transparency regarding equitable hiring/promotion practices to both pay and support.

*This story was written to go along with a picture I found of a young german soldier with bandages on his hands surrendering to a US army soldier during the Battle of The Bulge.*

When we saw the tanks, our instinct was to run. We ran until we were hidden in the forest, and we kept running until the cold wind burned our faces and our lungs filled with frost. I collapsed under a small pine tree, cold flakes of snow sprinkling down from the green needles.

Sitting there, trying to catch my breath, I realized I couldn’t hear anything but the sound of tank engines in the distance. Not even Kraus’ asthmatic wheezing that i’d grown so accustomed to. I slowly peeked from under the pine, only to see more trees and snow, and beyond that, the hazy pastures of some Belgian farmer. I sighed quietly, despair gripping me. How could I have let myself be separated from the others so easily? They were running beside me not five minutes ago, and now god knows where they could be. I suppose I could go look for them and risk running into the Americans, or I could wait here for a while and try to find my way back to our lines when night falls. So, I sat back down under the pine tree, with wispy snow drifts surrounding me just enough to keep away the wind.

I hated being alone now. Not just because of my situation, but because it gave me time to think. Think about the pain, the cold, the hunger, and above all else, question why any of this had to happen. Why are we still fighting this war? It’s down to old men and boys like me to defend the “almighty Fatherland”. Just take a look at my squad. A family man with a breathing condition, a typographer who’s old enough to be my grandfather, a guy who has a limp because he suffered from polio as a child, and of course the Feldwebel.

He served on the eastern front - a fate no German soldier would wish on anybody - and was injured badly by a mortar round. It blew up the room he was bedding in, masking the left side of his face in scars and killing three men. Because of this, the side of his head was always a deep shade of red and his ear remained nothing but a hole. And my god was he an angry man. Having to serve again after what he had been through left him with nothing but contempt for the war. Yet right now, I wished he and the others were right here with me.

Looking down at my hands, I realized that I had begun bleeding through my bandages again. I watched as a small drop of crimson fell from the dirty cloth and landed in the snow between my legs, creating a small dot of colour in this drab landscape. I lost the pinky and ring finger on my left hand two days ago when a blasting cap I was carrying to Kraus blew up in my hands. Between the cold and the burns, the pain has gone, and i’m not sure whether that’s a blessing or not.

The sound of engines rolling through the forest nearby raised in volume, as did the beating of my heart.

It’s hard to believe that eight months ago I was in my home celebrating my seventeenth birthday with my family. Remembering the look on their faces when I walked into the house and found them waiting for me, laughing and yelling surprise. And then the look on their faces as the truck drove off with me and other men, not a week later. It makes me wish more than anything that I was with them again.

I feel my eyes watering up and I squeeze them shut hard, the tears starting to freeze on my eyelashes already. When I open my eyes I can see the pastures just past the forest. And in them a I see a small convoy of Americans. Lifting my back off of the tree, I climb out from my little shelter of snowbanks. Before I even realize entirely what i’m doing, i’ve walked past the trees and begun up the small hill. I make it another hundred yards before I see an American soldier motion towards me. Raising my bandaged hands above my head I continue walking towards them. Two of them break away from their group and walk towards me. The one on the left raises his pistol as we near, and I notice the other raise a camera. I look my captor in the eyes and I hear a snap. This is the most afraid and relieved i’ve ever been, but I know one thing for sure. At least it’s over.

Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Benjamin Netanyahu flew kites, led a roadshow and spoke effusively about their friendship during a day-long visit to Gujarat in a public show of top-level backing for the fast growing ties between India and Israel.

Netanyahu said his country seeks to cooperate with India "in every field" and praised Modi for "revolutionising" his country. In turn, the Indian leader said he waited for "my friend" to visit India so they could together inaugurate an entrepreneur incubation centre for start-ups.

The bonding between the two leaders notwithstanding India voting in favor of a UN General Assembly resolution rejecting the US recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel was on full display at the very start of Netanyahu's visit to Modi's home state.

Modi received Netanyahu, who was accompanied by his wife Sara, at the airport with a bearhug, and then the three set off on an 8-km roadshow to the 'Sabarmati Ashram', the abode of Mahatma Gandhi for many years.

The road to Sabarmati Ashram was lined with people on both sides, with some carrying Indian and Israeli flags, as folk artists from several states sang and danced on stages erected at vantage points.

However, unlike last year's roadshow that Modi held with his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe where they travelled in an open jeep, clicking pictures and waving at cheering crowds, today's event was a heavily guarded affair, with the leaders seated in SUVs, apparently due to security reasons.

Once at the Ashram, the prime minister was in the role of a guide, showing the visiting couple around the place where they tried their hands Gandhi's spinning wheel, wearing garlands of handspun cotton yarn. The wheel had become emblematic of Gandhi's non-violent resistance to the colonial rule and underpinned his vision of self-reliance.

Later, the two leaders addressed young entrepreneurs at Deo Dholera after dedicating International Centre for Entrepreneurship and Technology (iCreate), a public-private partnership (PPP) venture set up to nurture entrepreneurs by providing them funds, space, mentors and other facilities.

"Prime Minister Modi is changing India, by the force in vision of his leadership. He is revolutionising India. He is catapulting it into the future, and as one of the world's great powers. And he is doing it through the power of innovation," Netanyahu said.

"I want young Israelis to come to India, not just with the backpack, but with a laptop. This is essentially a boundless potential and that's why I have come here, to encourage young innovators from our two countries to work together," he said, adding Israel seeks cooperation with India in every field.

Friendship was the constant theme as the two leaders acknowledged the immense potential for further cementing the bonds between the two nations.

"I thank Modi for his vision and for his friendship, and for recognising the immense potential of our partnership" the Israeli leader said.

Underscoring the vast scope of pertnership between the two countries, Netanyahu said he wanted cooperation in areas as diverse as water conservation and agriculture to cyberspace, and life sciences.

"Today, I have a simple message. I want young Indians to know that Israel wants to form partnership with you in technology, in water, in agriculture, in cyber, in drones, in health, in life sciences, in every field. We are your partner," he said.

Modi voiced happiness over the inauguration of iCreate in the presence of Netanyahu.

"When I went to Israel last year, I made up my mind that this foundation should have stronger relations with Israel. Since then, I was waiting for my friend Benjamin Netanyahu to come to India. He is here and now we are inaugurating this foundation," Modi said.

The work for setting up 'iCreate' was launched in 2011 by Modi when he was the chief minister of Gujarat.

"We are working towards making entire system in our country innovation-friendly. Curiousity produces intent, whose power leads to innovation that will make new India," he added.

Innovation, he said, plays a major role in bringing together the people of India and Israel.

"People of Israel have proved that it is not the size and shape of a country but the determination of its citizens which takes it ahead," he said.

Impressed by some of the innovations put on display at iCreate, Netanyahu said, "The world knows about iPods, they know about iPads, but there is one more 'i' the the world needs to know about - iCreate."

As cordiality punctuated the engagement of the two leaders, the entire house burst into guffaw when Netanyau called both himself and Modi young.

"As you all know, I am sure you have noticed, Prime Minister Modi and I are both very young and very optimistic.

We are young in our thinking and we are optimistic about the future," he said, as Modi was seen breaking into a hearty laugh.

The Israeli leader wrapped up his speech with chant of 'Jai Hind, Jai Bharat, Jai Israel' (victory be to India and Israel).

Netanyahu also gifted a Gal-Mobile water desalination and purification jeep to Modi that the latter dedicated to people of Suigam village in Banaskantha district.

The two also visited the Centre of Excellence for Vegetables at Vadrad village of Sabarkantha district set up in 2015 with Israeli collaboration.

MARCO WERMAN is an American radio personality. He is a host, reporter and senior producer in public radio.

Biography and background

Werman is the host of Public Radio International's _The World_. He took over as full-time host of the program on January 1, 2013 after years as fill-in host and producer of the Global Hit music segment.[1] Werman has been working in journalism since he was 16 when he worked as a copy boy at the _News and Observer_ in Raleigh, North Carolina. His journalism experience includes documentary photography, print, radio and television. A returned Peace Corps volunteer and a lifelong surfer,[2] Werman got his start in radio while freelancing in Burkina Faso, West Africa, for the BBC World Service, where he later worked as a producer.[3] “Radio impressed me in Africa,” says Werman. “Everyone had one, broadcasts happened in many languages, and in the two coups I witnessed, the radio station was important booty: it and the electrical generator were always the first targets.”

In 1990, he started a new public radio station in the Adirondacks in New York, where he hosted a daily two-hour news and public affairs show for four years. This was followed by a half year stint in Rome, Italy, where he was the correspondent for Monitor Radio. In 1995, he was invited to assist in creating the format for _The World_, where he has worked since. In 1997, he began producing the Global Hit segment, in which musicians and musical trends around the globe are linked and used as a lens to understand the news. This segment has also become a popular podcast as part of the PRI News podcasts.

Werman has been the recipient of awards from the National Federation of Community Broadcasters for an original radio drama that he wrote; the Sony Awards for an exposé on child labor in West African gold mines; from the New York Festivals for a BBC documentary on the 1987 assassination of Burkina Faso's president; and the first annual Unity award from the Radio and Television News Directors Association for coverage of diversity issues.

In 2007, he won an Emmy for his story “Libya: Out of the Shadow” on the PBS program _Frontline/World_, about the 2006 total solar eclipse that brought thousands of tourists to Libya just after it had rejoined the community of nations. Werman was the first American television and radio journalist to go to Libya after Muammar al-Gaddafi renounced weapons of mass destruction in December 2003, a move that would lead to Libya losing its pariah state status.

Werman is also the host and a reporter for a new music series for PBS called “Sound Tracks: Music Without Borders,” which he co-created with PBS producer Stephen Talbot. The pilot aired in 2010. A new episode was broadcast on PBS in October 2012. He is also a presenter and interviewer for the PBS Arts online series, “Sound Tracks presents Quick Hits” where he has interviewed Jovanotti, Seu Jorge, Charles Bradley, Milos Karadaglic and Levon Helm.[4]

Werman is host of BBC World Service “Boston Calling”, which explores how the world looks through American eyes, and the myriad and unexpected ways that the world influences the United States.[5]

question: What target population would Werman be the ideal mentor for?

answer: If Werman is properly depicting his target audience, then it's those who are interested in journalism and public broadcasting, as Werman is well-established in this area.

critique: The article does not state who Werman's target audience is, so the answer to this question cannot be found.

critique: "If Werman is properly depicting his target audience, then it's those who are interested in journalism and public broadcasting, as Werman is well-established in this area." - it's not stated, much less implied, what Werman's target audience is. Should instead state how he would be the perfect mentor for journalism students.

There are many photos and videos on the internet of Werman at many different signings with fans and other journalists, seemingly bolstering his career.

critique: The only sentence that goes into details is the last sentence. All the other sentences are just about Werman's career-which would be a better topic for the other part of the question.

  The man straightened his collar as he looked into the mirror, dreading having the "talk" with his son, Simon. No not that talk, a different talk. Simon got into a fight at school today. The principal said Simon didn't start it. That wasn't what concerned him, what did was the condition of the young man his son beat.

He closed his eyes and tried to come up with the right words. His thoughts quickly turned to prayers, because he had no idea what to say. After awhile he opened his eyes, he need not make his son wait any longer. He had sent Simon up to his room right after they got home from the meeting with the principal.

"It's time to bite the bullet." He encouraged himself as he left the bathroom.

He walked to Simon's room where he found the door open, waiting for him. His son was sitting at his computer desk, he let out a sigh to let him know he was there then walked over and sat on the bed. His son tuned to face him.

"Dad, I swear I didn't mean to hurt him that bad. He just kept on and on. He slapped me and I know you always say turn the other cheek, but I couldn't. I had no choice something inside of me just took over. I FELT LIKE A MONSTER! I promise all I wanted was for him to leave me alone." As his son spoke tears filled his eyes, he could tell he thought he had hurt his father. Simon's shirt was ripped and his knuckles was bloody.

"I understand more then you know."  He said with a smile.

"You do?" Simon said shocked.

"Yes, I guess you could say temper runs in the family."

"I have never seen you even get cranky before." Simon protested.

"Ah, but I am old. I have had many more years then you have to learn to control it."

"How can I be sure it won't happen again?" Simon asked as tears ran down his face.

"You should be kind to everyone, even the undeserving. It is not our place to judge. Turn the other cheek, know that if you don't bad things are to come, just like today. As you get older, the bad things worsen. There are even things you can watch for and avoid like I do."

"Like what daddy?"

"Confrontation, arguments or anything that may make you angry. If you have a thought or have a hard time calming down, go to somewhere you can be alone. Then yell and do whatever you need to get it out. I like a dark place personally."

"Like your study, is that why you had it sound proofed?" Simon asked.

His father not answering rose to his feet. Simon stood up and hugged his father.

"So I'm not in trouble?"

"Of course not. How bad did he hurt you?" He asked.

"My lip was bleeding, I think it stopped though. I'm okay." Simon answered.

"Go change your shirt and wash your hands, we are going for ice cream. That feels good on a busted lip." His father said with a smile leaving the room.

He could see Simon was happy, but he was not. He closed the door to his study and walked into the bathroom.

"Pick on my son." He said as he began to lose his temper.

"Slap my son." His heart raced and his hands stiffened and snapped.

"Bust his lip." His face tightened.

"Made him feel like a monster?" He asked himself.

He slammed his once human hands into the wall, he slammed his foot into the toilet. Water ran all over his feet as though a fresh cooling effect. He rested his clawed hands on the sink and in snapped and cracked under the pressure. His gaze turned to the mirror. Fangs, slit eyes that even to this day remind him of a cat and bone piercing his skin making horns.

"A monster." He whispers to himself.

A voice from deep within him speaks, "one day, you will have to tell him. He is my son too."

"Dad? Are you ready?" Simon's voice called out from the study.

"Oh yeah, just gotta change my shoes, I'll meet you in the car." He listened until he heard the door close to his study.

His gaze returned to the mirror now a man who is growing old looks at him instead of the beast that lives inside.

"I know that." He tells it, he knows it can hear him. It's always listening. "Today isn't that day."

He combed down his whitening hair and changed into dry shoes and met Simon outside.

"Dang dad, what took so long?"

"We have to stop by Lowe's, I need to place an order." He answered.

"Toilet in your study is messing up again?!" Simon asked.

"I guess I'm not the plumber I thought I was." He answered with a smile.

"Geez dad, I would have gave up by now. You have the patience of a saint."

question: What does the story say about how Simon's father feels about Simon's fight with the boy?

answer: Simon's dad listens patiently as he explains that he didn't mean to hurt the boy that badly. He says he understands more than Simon thinks (the men in the family are predisposed to being abusive). He assures him he's not in trouble and that it's a learning experience. He says he'll take Simon out for ice cream to make him feel better, which dispels Simon's worries.

critique: "He says he understands more than Simon thinks (the men in the family are predisposed to being abusive)." - this is inaccurate. His father says he understands what Simon felt when he was being beaten up.

Before the war, he told me, all the kids went around munching mumpsicles. "Mumpsicles? What is that?" I asked. "What does it sound like," he said with a snort. That's the way it always was with Uncle Hobo. He had seen it all before and who was I to second guess him.
I suppose I should be happy that I get to go to his practice for free, ever since I moved in on his street and my parents got stabbed. A kind heart in that one. But every time I go in for a check-up, his remarks make me less than a little bit comfortable.

"Come on in, Gordon. Take a seat. Have a lolly, won't you?" Always with that smile. That's the thing about it- he always respects you first, reels you in with some prospect and then disappoints. Gordon's my name, all right, but I sure as hell dont see no lollies.

And that's not the half of it. He wasnt my uncle anyway but he doesnt like formal titles like "doctor." Says they make him feel old. Threw away his diploma years ago- I sure havent seen it. Hell, he doesnt even wear the garb- calls it pretentious and what have you.

We go through the procedure, same as always: he puts his stethoscope to my bare chest, checks in my eyes and ears, and tells me to say "ah." The only thing that concerns him is my blood pressure. I'm not a big salt eater so this comes as a surprise. "Since when is my blood pressure high, Uncle Hobo? I've been eating my greens, I swear!"

"Have you now, boy?" says Uncle Hobo rifling through some papers, barely looking up. A long pause as he grunts to himself. "Have I ever told you how blood works, Gordon?"

I considered his question. "No, sir, I don't believe you have." I replied, bracing for one of his wordly explanations.

"Well then, to understand why blood is important, we must first turn to veins and arteries."

I listened intently, taking my hand out of my pocket and then putting it back in.

He continued, peering through his spectacles, "Now you see, Gordon, blood is like dogs and veins are like dog racing tracks. Have you ever been to a dog race, Gordon?"

"Yes, sir, I sure have," I exclaimed.

"Well then you of all people should know that veins are like racing tracks for medium-sized dogs, arteries are like racing tracks for large dogs, and capillaries are tracks for small dogs."

I listened intently. I let the knowledge wash over me like awakening to a sunrise.

"In your arteries you got your Alpine Spaniels, your Cesky Terriers, your Lapponian Herders, oh and your Otterhounds..."

I quietly inserted my hand into my pocket, my eyes fixated on his.

"...Gotta remember your Polish Lowland Sheepdogs, your Giant Schnauzers, your Japanese Spitz..."

I began to move my hand back out of my pocket, staring at his face.

"...Your Great Danes in the arteries too, of course. And in your veins, that's where you find your Dachshunds, your Labradors, your Dalmatians, a good deal of Collies..."

I put both of my hands into my pocket and took one of them out, then I put one hand in as I took the other hand out. I was still listening to his fascinating words.

"...your Mastiffs and Boxers. Not to forget your Bloodhounds in your veins and your Bulldogs..."

This time I took both hands out of my pockets and my eyes never left his. I couldnt believe what I was learning about blood.

"In your capillaries--they're the tiniest--you have your Chihuahuas, Pomeranians and Chow Chows, your Poodles, your Bassett Hounds, your Cocker Spaniels, can't forget your English Setters..."

Trying to encourage Uncle Hobo, I shouted at the top of my lungs "WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!" He took it as encouragement and kept talking.

"Also, Gordon, in your capillaries you have your Pugs, your Jack Russell Terriers (remember Wishbone, Gordon?), your Miniature Schnauzers, and your Shitzhus. See what I mean?"

I nodded excitedly and shouted "I sure as hell understand, Uncle Hobo. Better than I ever did before!"

Uncle Hobo looked satisfied. He gazed at me and then reached for something.

"Gordon, it's time for me to give you something." proclaimed Uncle Hobo.

He got a hypodermic needle in his shopping cart. We were on the sidewalk at the time, where he sleeps. He stabbed his shoulder, extracted some blood. Then he stabbed the needle into my shoulder and with a push of his thumb, all his blood entered my bloodstream.

Uncle Hobo explained: "There- now you can see the color 'threeve.'"

Sure enough, there it was all around me. The sky had tinges of 'threeve' and passersby had 'threeve'-colored hair and even there was 'threeve' in a discarded hamburger wrapper on the street. Why couldn't I see 'threeve' before? Was it a special property of Uncle Hobo's own blood? Whatever it was, I was grateful. 'Threeve' would be my new friend.

I thanked Uncle Hobo and left my appointment, but not before giving him a present of my own. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the little man I had hidden there: he stood on my extended palm and performed gymnastic feats before bursting in an explosion of scalding blood. The blood got into Uncle Hobo's eyes and blinded him. I told him it was okay because now he can always see the color 'bars,' because I was a police and he was under arrest. He laughed and he licked my cheek. I handcuffed him- he wasnt a doctor or my uncle. He was a filthy hobo. Case solved.
