This means that if you take the number 'a', add it to the number you get when you divide 1 by 'a', you will get 4.\n\nNow, we need to find the value of $a^{4} + a^{-4}$. This means we need to find the result when you multiply 'a' by itself 4 times and add it to the number you get when you divide 1 by 'a' multiplied by itself 4 times.\n\nTo do this, we can square the original equation. Squaring something means you multiply it by itself. So, if we square the left side of the equation (which is 4), we get $4^{2}$, which is 16. If we square the right side of the equation (which is $a + a^{-1}$), we get $a^{2} + 2 + a^{-2}$.\n\nNow, we subtract 2 from both sides of the equation, so we get $16 - 2 = a^{2} + a^{-2}$, which simplifies to $14 = a^{2} + a^{-2}$.\n\nNext, we square the equation again. So we get $14^{2} = (a^{2} + a^{-2})^{2}$, which simplifies to $196 = a^{4} + 2 + a^{-4}$.\n\nFinally, we subtract 2 from both sides of the equation, so we get $196 - 2 = a^{4} + a^{-4}$, which simplifies to $194 = a^{4} + a^{-4}$.\n\nSo, the value of $a^{4} + a^{-4}$ is 194." } ]

In the area of Las Californias the ruthless Spanish Governor, Don Rafael Montero, is about to be overthrown. In a last ditch effort to trap his nemesis, the masked swordsman Zorro (Anthony Hopkins), Montero prepares to execute three innocent townspeople. With assistance from two orphan brothers, Joaquin and Alejandro Murrieta, Zorro releases the prisoners. Zorro rewards the Murrieta brothers with a special medallion he wears, and escapes on his horse, Toronado, after cutting a \"Z\" into Montero's neck as a parting gift and warning. The same night, however, Montero confronts Zorro at his home, having deduced that Zorro is really Don Diego de la Vega, a Spanish nobleman married to Esperanza, the woman Montero had always loved. Attempting to arrest Diego, a fight ensues, during which Esperanza is killed while trying to protect Diego. Diego's house is burned and his infant daughter, Elena, is taken to Spain by Montero to be raised as his own while Diego is taken to prison. Twenty years later, Montero secretly returns to California, looking for Diego in the old prison. Although de La Vega is there, Montero does not recognize him, while several prisoners claim to be Zorro (taken from the famous scene of Spartacus). Diego later escapes, intent on killing Montero the following day at a public ceremony for Montero's return. However, Diego restrains himself when he sees Eléna (Catherine Zeta-Jones), now a beautiful young lady. Elena is presented with a bouquet of flowers - Romagnas, native to California - the scent of which she recognizes, although she incorrectly believes she has never been to California before. Diego soon meets an adult Alejandro Murrieta (Antonio Banderas), whom he recognizes by the medal he awarded Joaquin.

Generate an appropriate single-sentence summary for the given text such that it includes the main topic of the text.\n\nMarsha's WhatsApp group went pinging into overdrive as soon as it was announced that primary schools and nurseries would reopen for some children on 1 June. There was outrage, relief, excitement, anxiety. Everyone seemed to have an opinion. Marsha wrote that she'd be happy to send her son back to school. Then immediately another mum shared a news item about a teacher who'd tested positive for coronavirus. \"This is why I will be keeping Rosie safe at home with me - I'm not putting her life at risk,\" she wrote. A few other parents then sent thumbs-up and shocked-face emojis to show their approval of Rosie's mum's message. \"It felt very passive-aggressive,\" says Marsha, who said she didn't want her real name to be published because she couldn't face \"more drama\". The WhatsApp group she belongs to is for parents with a child in year one at a school in the Bristol area and is normally a source of useful information. But since the pandemic hit, it's become toxic, she says. \"People have been posting lots of screengrabs from Facebook which are full of misinformation about how the virus spreads and the risks to children,\" she says. \"But if you dare to try to correct anything or put things into perspective you get shot down and it is implied you are a bad parent. \"I'm trying to hold down a full-time job while also homeschooling two children - I find being judged by other parents on top of that very hard to deal with.\" Sophia, 25, had a similar experience when she commented on a Facebook group for single mums that her four-year-old daughter would be returning to preschool. She was branded \"selfish\" by another mum - and then she watched as that damning verdict was endorsed by \"likes\" from other members of the group. Normally this would be a very positive, empowering community says Sophia, who works full-time as a charity consultant, so it's a sign of how much times have changed. \"It showed me how much the lockdown is getting to people,\" she says. \"It feels as if the worst assumptions are being made about someone's reasons for sending their child back to school or nursery.\" Sophia's daughter has special educational needs and for weeks now she hasn't had access to her usual speech therapy. \"She learns a lot by being with other children so being at preschool is the next best thing for her,\" she explains. \"I could have a PhD in children's education and it would still be better for her to be around other children. There is no substitute for that.\" Parents who have decided to keep their children at home haven't escaped the crosshairs either. Harriet Shearsmith, founder of parenting website Toby & Roo, has an Instagram following of 116,000 and is one of the few \"mummy bloggers\" to have publicly stated her position on this divisive issue. She won't be sending her children back when the schools reopen in June, but when she explained this decision she was careful to add the caveat that she wasn't criticising other parents. \"If you fall into the group of people who are choosing differently to me or you simply don't have a choice, this isn't a judgement of you or a dismissal of your situation,\" she wrote. Some nonetheless responded witheringly that Harriet obviously didn't care much about her children's education - but as an experienced blogger she is accustomed to dealing with it. \"I've had comments, you know, 'You're going to be damaging your children,' or, 'You're just not very intelligent and a terrible mother.' That kind of thing is said, but I largely just ignore it,\" she says. \"Lockdown has made us all much quicker to lose our tempers. We are much more frayed and we are all in very stressful positions, regardless of what those positions might be.\" Fellow blogger Alison Perry says she has also noticed the ground shifting. \"It feels like all the social 'rules' have changed,\" she says. \"Everyone feels very differently about homeschooling and screen time and even just interpreting the government guidelines. I'm usually a very outspoken person but have found myself biting my tongue, because whatever I say, there will be someone there telling me I'm wrong or selfish.\" Liz, who lives near Cambridge, points to another possible explanation - people now have more time to spend on social media, she says, so any backlash gets amplified. Like Marsha and Sophia, she is planning on sending one of her children back to school on Monday. \"It's really difficult to know what the right decision is but we think that the benefits of our son going back to school outweigh the risk of him becoming ill,\" she says. She has been hurt by judgemental comments from other parents on her Facebook group, some of whom she's known for several years. \"Apparently those of us who are willing to send our children back to school when they reopen are sending them back to be 'guinea pigs' or 'canaries', to see if cases are going to rise again,\" she says. \"I said I found it offensive. That does imply that anyone who is happy to send their child back to school is throwing them to the wolves, so to speak, whereas actually we just want some normality for our children, and, you know, education and socialisation.\" When she made this point in response to a critic on Facebook she says she was accused of \"bullying\". The issue seems to have caused a deep divide, she notes with regret. She has now minimised her time on social media and advises other parents in her position to do the same. The parents on Marsha's group who are sending their children to school have taken a different approach - they have started avoiding the main group chat and talking among themselves instead. Mumsnet founder and CEO Justine Roberts: A few parents on Mumsnet who've made the decision to send their child back to school say they've felt bruised by the negative responses of family or friends, which seem to be driven by worries about the infection risk. Many people are highly dubious that the youngest children can really be prevented from sharing bugs and carrying them out into the community, and lots of people have picked up on teachers' concerns about whether schools have had enough time to prepare a really safe environment. It seems likely that people's responses are driven by understandable fear and uncertainty, but if you're a parent run ragged by nine weeks of homeschooling while attempting to hold down a job, other people's judgement is likely to be the last thing you need.

In contrast to the dourness of grunge, Britpop was defined by \"youthful exuberance and desire for recognition\". The leading Britpop bands, \"Blur and Oasis[,] exist[ed] as reactionary forces to [grunge's] eternal downcast glare.\" Britpop artists' new approach was inspired by Blur's tour of the United States in the spring of 1992. Justine Frischmann, formerly of Suede and leader of Elastica (and at the time in a relationship with Damon Albarn) explained, \"Damon and I felt like we were in the thick of it at that point ... it occurred to us that Nirvana were out there, and people were very interested in American music, and there should be some sort of manifesto for the return of Britishness.\"Britpop artists were vocal about their disdain for grunge. In a 1993 NME interview, Damon Albarn of Britpop band Blur agreed with interviewer John Harris' assertion that Blur was an \"anti-grunge band\", and said, \"Well, that's good. If punk was about getting rid of hippies, then I'm getting rid of grunge\" (ironically Kurt Cobain once cited Blur as his favorite band). Noel Gallagher of Oasis, while a fan of Nirvana, wrote music that refuted the pessimistic nature of grunge. Gallagher noted in 2006 that the 1994 Oasis single \"Live Forever\" \"was written in the middle of grunge and all that, and I remember Nirvana had a tune called 'I Hate Myself and I Want to Die,' and I was like ... 'Well, I'm not fucking having that.' As much as I fucking like him [Cobain] and all that shit, I'm not having that.

We will need to configure the SMTP server, the sender email, and the recipient email. \n - Thought 2: The email should contain details about the resource usage that exceeded the threshold, and it should be sent as soon as the threshold is exceeded.\n\nBased on these thoughts, the strongest reasoning chain seems to be: \n\nImplement a Python script using libraries such as 'paramiko', 'docker', and 'smtplib' that deploys a specified Docker container to a remote host using SSH, monitors its resource usage (CPU, memory) periodically, and sends an alert email using SMTP if the usage exceeds predefined thresholds. \n\nHere is a rough implementation:\n\n```python\nimport paramiko\nimport docker\nimport smtplib\nfrom email.mime.text import MIMEText\n\n# Connect to remote host\nssh = paramiko.SSHClient()\nssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())\nssh.connect('hostname', username='username', password='password')\n\n# Deploy Docker container\nstdin, stdout, stderr = ssh.exec_command('docker run -d [container]')\ncontainer_id = stdout.read().strip()\n\n# Connect to Docker on remote host\nclient = docker.DockerClient(base_url='tcp://hostname:2375')\n\n# Monitor resource usage\nwhile True:\n stats = client.containers.get(container_id).stats(stream=False)\n cpu_usage = stats['cpu_stats']['cpu_usage']['total_usage']\n mem_usage = stats['memory_stats']['usage']\n\n # Check if usage exceeds thresholds\n if cpu_usage > CPU_THRESHOLD or mem_usage > MEM_THRESHOLD:\n # Send alert email\n msg = MIMEText('CPU usage: %s, Memory usage: %s' % (cpu_usage, mem_usage))\n msg['Subject'] = 'Resource usage exceeded'\n msg['From'] = 'sender@example.com'\n msg['To'] = 'recipient@example.com'\n\n s = smtplib.SMTP('localhost')\n s.send_message(msg)\n s.quit()\n```\n\nThis script is a rough implementation and may need to be adjusted based on the specific requirements and environment. For example, the Docker daemon on the remote host needs to be configured to allow remote connections, and the SMTP server needs to be configured to allow sending emails." } ]

However, since the vector passes through the x-axis during the rotation, this suggests that the rotation is happening in the plane defined by the vector and the x-axis.\n\nThought 3: The original vector has a component in the x-axis (1), and components in the y and z axes (both 2). After a 90-degree rotation, the component in the x-axis will remain the same, while the components in the y and z axes will become zero because the vector is now lying on the x-axis.\n\nThought 4: Alternatively, we could consider that a 90-degree rotation in the plane defined by the vector and the x-axis will result in the y and z components being swapped, and the x component being negated.

One key aspect of this responsibility involves interventions in the currency markets to ensure stability in the exchange rate and ease inflationary pressures. Given the strategic significance of this mandate, the ECB's recent intervention in currency markets warrants a thorough evaluation of its motivations, strategies, and potential implications for the euro area as well as the global economy.\n\n1. Motivations for ECB's Intervention in Currency Markets\n\nThe ECB's decision to intervene in currency markets can be driven by multiple factors, including maintaining the euro's competitiveness, preventing excessive exchange rate volatility, and mitigating risks of a deflationary spiral or inflationary pressures.\n\n1.1 Euro Competitiveness\n\nOne primary motivation for the ECB's currency market intervention is to ensure that the euro maintains a competitive edge against major world currencies such as the US dollar, yen, and pound sterling. This competitiveness facilitates international trade and investment, directly impacting the euro area's economic growth. By intervening and managing the exchange rate, the ECB aims to strike a balance between a strong euro, which reflects economic confidence, and a weaker euro that fosters export competitiveness.\n\n1.2 Exchange Rate Volatility\n\nA stable exchange rate is crucial for smooth international trade and investment, as excessive volatility may lead to uncertainty, increase risks, and discourage cross-border economic transactions. The ECB intervenes in currency markets to mitigate fluctuations in the euro's value, ensuring stability and fostering investor confidence.\n\n1.3 Inflation and Deflation Risks\n\nTo maintain price stability and prevent deflationary or inflationary risks, the ECB may intervene in currency markets. A persistently strong euro may exert deflationary pressures, while a significantly weakened euro could cause inflation to escalate. In both scenarios, interventions assist in achieving the ECB's primary objective of ensuring price stability within the euro area.\n\n2. Strategies for Currency Market Intervention\n\nThe ECB adopts a range of strategies encompassing direct and indirect interventions to influence the euro's value.\n\n2.1 Direct Intervention\n\nThe ECB can opt for direct intervention by buying or selling foreign currencies in the exchange market, thereby impacting the euro's exchange rate. This is typically done in coordination with other central banks, such as during the 2011 joint intervention to stabilize the yen following the earthquake in Japan.\n\n2.2 Indirect Intervention\n\nIndirect interventions include adjustments to key interest rates, which have a bearing on the exchange rate. For instance, raising interest rates can boost the euro's value by attracting capital inflows, while lowering rates might weaken the euro, promoting export competitiveness.\n\n3. Implications of ECB's Intervention in Currency Markets\n\nThe ECB's intervention in currency markets potentially carries a range of economic and geopolitical ramifications.\n\n3.1 Euro Area Economy\n\nInterventions aimed at stabilizing or depreciating the euro can bolster export competitiveness and encourage investment, thereby strengthening the euro area economy. Additionally, preventing excessive exchange rate volatility can instill investor confidence and promote economic growth.\n\n3.2 Global Economy\n\nInterventions impacting the euro exchange rate can influence global trade and investment patterns. For instance, a depreciated euro could encourage foreign investors to tap into the euro area market, while a stronger euro might push businesses to seek alternative markets. Moreover, coordinated interventions with other central banks enable global economic stability.\n\n3.3 Geopolitical Relations\n\nCurrency market interventions can sometimes lead to tensions with trade partners who perceive the targeted exchange rate adjustments as currency manipulation. However, transparent communication about ECB's policy objectives and cooperation with other central banks can mitigate such geopolitical concerns.\n\nConclusion\n\nThe ECB's intervention in currency markets remains crucial for maintaining the euro's competitiveness, preventing exchange rate volatility, and managing inflationary or deflationary risks within the euro area. By employing direct and indirect intervention strategies, the ECB can navigate complex economic and geopolitical challenges while fostering stability and growth within the euro area and the global economy." } ]
