Context: "Father Joseph Carrier, C.S.C. was Director of the Science Museum and the Library and Professor of Chemistry and Physics until 1874. Carrier taught that scientific research and its promise for progress were not antagonistic to the ideals of intellectual and moral culture endorsed by the Church. One of Carrier's students was Father John Augustine Zahm (1851–1921) who was made Professor and Co-Director of the Science Department at age 23 and by 1900 was a nationally prominent scientist and naturalist. Zahm was active in the Catholic Summer School movement, which introduced Catholic laity to contemporary intellectual issues. His book Evolution and Dogma (1896) defended certain aspects of evolutionary theory as true, and argued, moreover, that even the great Church teachers Thomas Aquinas and Augustine taught something like it. The intervention of Irish American Catholics in Rome prevented Zahm's censure by the Vatican. In 1913, Zahm and former President Theodore Roosevelt embarked on a major expedition through the Amazon." Answer: Answer:

answer:Father John Zahm, a well-known scientist and naturalist of his time, faced disagreement from a number of theologians and conservative Catholics who had differing views on the relationship between science and religion. In his book, "Evolution and Dogma" (1896), Zahm defended aspects of the evolutionary theory as true and argued that even great Church teachers such as Thomas Aquinas and Augustine held similar views. This position invited criticism from those who viewed Zahm's ideas as incompatible with traditional Catholic teachings. One notable individual who disagreed with Zahm was Monsignor James J. Hennessey, who served as the rector of the Catholic University of America from 1896 to 1903. Hennessey strongly opposed Zahm's attempts to reconcile Catholic teaching with the theory of evolution, maintaining that the teachings of the Church and the tenets of evolution were fundamentally at odds. This disagreement eventually led to a larger conflict within the Catholic community in the United States, with various factions advocating either for or against the integration of scientific advancements, such as the theory of evolution, with religious doctrine. Additionally, Zahm's views faced opposition from Irish American Catholics, who believed that embracing the evolutionary theory would undermine the Church's authority and teachings. Their intervention in Rome even helped prevent Zahm from being censured by the Vatican. Another person who somewhat disagreed with Zahm on the issue of evolution was his fellow priest and colleague, Father Joseph Carrier, C.S.C. Although Carrier believed that scientific research and progress were not at odds with the Church's intellectual and moral culture, it appears as though he did not fully embrace Zahm's ideas regarding the compatibility of certain aspects of the evolutionary theory with Catholic teachings. Moreover, the general opposition that Zahm faced can also be attributed to some members of the Catholic hierarchy and many conservative laypeople who were apprehensive about the potential consequences of integrating scientific theories, such as evolution, with religious beliefs. This opposition was rooted in the deep concern that doing so could erode the authority of the Church and pose a threat to adherence to traditional doctrine. In summary, Father John Augustine Zahm's views on the compatibility of certain aspects of evolutionary theory with Catholic teachings faced disagreement from various individuals, including Monsignor James J. Hennessey, Irish American Catholics, and possibly Father Joseph Carrier, along with other conservative members of the Church. This opposition stemmed from concerns regarding the potential impact of Zahm's ideas on the Church's authority and adherence to traditional doctrine.

question:You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. Eleanora Fagan (April 7, 1915 - July 17, 1959), better known as Billie Holiday, was an American jazz musician and singer-songwriter with a career spanning nearly thirty years. Nicknamed "Lady Day" by her friend and music partner Lester Young, Holiday had a seminal influence on jazz music and pop singing. Her vocal style, strongly inspired by jazz instrumentalists, pioneered a new way of manipulating phrasing and tempo. She was known for her vocal delivery and improvisational skills, which made up for her limited range and lack of formal music education. In 1935 Holiday was signed to Brunswick Records by John Hammond to record current pop tunes with Teddy Wilson in the new swing style for the growing jukebox trade. They were given free rein to improvise the material. Holiday's improvisation of melody to fit the emotion was revolutionary. Their first collaboration included "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" and "Miss Brown to You". "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" has been deemed her "claim to fame." Brunswick did not favor the recording session, because producers wanted Holiday to sound more like Cleo Brown. After "What a Little Moonlight Can Do" garnered success, however, the company began considering Holiday an artist in her own right. She began recording under her own name a year later (on the 35-cent Vocalion label), producing a series of extraordinary performances with groups comprising the swing era's finest musicians. The sessions were co-produced by Hammond and Bernie Hanighen. With their arrangements, Wilson and Holiday took pedestrian pop tunes, such as "Twenty-Four Hours a Day" (number 6 Pop) and "Yankee Doodle Went to Town", and turned them into jazz classics. Most of Holiday's recordings with Wilson or under her own name during the 1930s and early 1940s are regarded as important parts of the jazz vocal library. She was then in her twenties. Another frequent accompanist was the tenor saxophonist Lester Young, who had been a boarder at her mother's house in 1934 and with whom Holiday had a special rapport. He said, "I think you can hear that on some of the old records, you know. Some time I'd sit down and listen to 'em myself, and it sound like two of the same voices, if you don't be careful, you know, or the same mind, or something like that." Young nicknamed her "Lady Day", and she called him "Prez". Hammond spoke about the commercial impact of the Wilson-Holiday sides from 1935 to 1938, calling them a great asset to Brunswick. The record label, according to Hammond, was broke and unable to record many jazz tunes. Wilson, Holiday, Young, and other musicians came into the studio without musical arrangements and improvised as they performed, dispensing with the expense of having written arrangements, so that the records they produced were cheap. Holiday was never given any royalties for her work, instead being paid a flat fee, which saved the company money. Some of the records produced were successful, such as "I Cried for You", which sold 15,000 copies. Hammond said of the record, "15,000 ... was a giant hit for Brunswick in those days. I mean a giant hit. Most records that made money sold around three to four thousand." What happened in 1936?

answer:1936 was a significant year in Billie Holiday's life and career. Several important events and collaborations occurred during this time, contributing to her growing success and influence in the jazz and music industry. 1. In 1936, Billie continued recording with Teddy Wilson, performing some of her most well-known songs, such as "I Cried for You," which sold 15,000 copies and became a major hit. 2. Throughout 1936, Billie's success in the recording studio translated to increased popularity and demand for her live performances. She worked alongside numerous prominent musicians and jazz bands, earning a reputation for her emotive and captivating live performances. 3. In 1936, Billie Holiday and pianist Teddy Wilson recorded "A Fine Romance" and "The Way You Look Tonight," both penned by prolific songwriting duo Jerome Kern and Dorothy Fields. These tunes were part of the soundtrack for the film "Swing Time," starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Billie's recordings showcased her unique ability to breathe new life into popular songs by transforming them into timeless jazz standards. 4. It was during this time that Billie Holiday continued working with Lester Young, establishing their strong musical rapport. Young played the tenor saxophone and regularly accompanied Holiday during live performances and recording sessions. Their mutual respect and admiration for each other led to Young giving her the nickname "Lady Day," and her, in return, calling him "Prez." 5. Billie's collaboration with Brunswick Records continued to thrive in 1936, producing numerous recordings that became essential parts of the jazz vocal canon. As an example, Billie recorded the song "Summertime" (from the opera "Porgy and Bess") in 1936 with Teddy Wilson, marking one of the earliest and most influential interpretations of George Gershwin's classic composition. In summary, 1936 was a pivotal year in Billie Holiday's career, as she continued to collaborate with prominent musicians, expand her discography, and captivate audiences with her unique vocal style. The events of this year further solidified her status as one of the most innovative and influential jazz musicians in history, setting the stage for her continued success throughout the late 1930s and beyond.

question:You are an AI assistant. You will be given a task. You must generate a detailed and long answer. What is the answer for the question: What was the profession of the person injured in a riding accident? from the following article ? Anderson is a successful American hitman whose employer sends him to do a job in Argentina. His contacts inform him that his target is a former general who took part in Argentina's last military dictatorship. Following a meeting with one of the co-conspirators, Anderson hears music and is shown a tango studio. He is immediately entranced by the dancing and wants to learn more about it, which leads to his meeting with Manuela, a local tango dancer and instructor. Things are not as easy as they seem. Anderson learns that the assassination job will be delayed, due to his target sustaining an injury in a riding accident. A paranoid Anderson simultaneously rents a room in two different hotels. From the safety but close proximity of one hotel room, he witnesses police converge on the other hotel. Anderson will fulfill his obligation to do the job despite the obvious reality that there is a leak. In the meantime, Anderson begins to immerse himself in the world of the tango, while balancing his plans to carry out the hit. The conspirator Miguel is harshly interrogated by Buenos Aires police. Miguel can eventually breathe a sigh of relief when his conspirator within the Argentinian federal authorities shows up. Anderson eventually makes it out of Argentina safely.

answer:The profession of the person injured in a riding accident from the article is not explicitly mentioned. However, the person referred to is characterized as a former general who was engaged in Argentina's last military dictatorship. Despite we commonly consider 'general' as a military rank, in this context it can be interpreted as the former profession of the person. Therefore, it can be inferred that the person who was injured in a riding accident was once a general in the military. It's crucial to be aware that without further information, we can't conclusively deduce the individual's profession at the time of the accident. They may have taken on a different career path since retiring from military service. Nevertheless, using the provided information, the most direct conclusion is that the injured individual was a former military general.
