"content": "Extract from this text the chronological adjustments in the size of the English army over the years in the format, [ year: size adjustment ]\n\nAfter the Restoration Charles II pulled together four regiments of infantry and cavalry, calling them his guards, at a cost of £122,000 from his general budget. This became the foundation of the permanent English Army. By 1685 it had grown to 7,500 soldiers in marching regiments, and 1,400 men permanently stationed in garrisons. A rebellion in 1685 allowed James II to raise the forces to 20,000 men. There were 37,000 in 1678 when England played a role in the closing stage of the Franco-Dutch War. After William and Mary's accession to the throne, England involved itself in the War of the Grand Alliance, primarily to prevent a French invasion restoring James II (Mary's father).[30] In 1689, William III expanded the army to 74,000, and then to 94,000 in 1694. Parliament was very nervous and reduced the cadre to 7000 in 1697. Scotland and Ireland had theoretically separate military establishments, but they were unofficially merged with the English force.[",

"content": "Reframe the content of this text as a story about the Hubble Space Telescope's journey from an idea to a space-based observatory.\n\nSince its launch in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has provided a dazzling array of images that have awed and inspired the public. \n\nBut Hubble's about far more than just pretty pictures. The mission has gathered dozens of terabytes of data over the decades, providing key insights into the universe, from objects as close as the moon to the most remote galaxies, with observations of supernovas and nebulas in between. \n\nHere we explore the history of the telescope and its many discoveries, provide interesting Hubble facts and link to some of the orbiting observatory's best images. \n\nWhen Galileo Galilei first turned a spyglass to the heavens in 1610, he had trouble making out the rings of Saturn that are visible in inexpensive telescopes today. Advances in optics eventually improved scientists' views of the planets, stars and distant galaxies, but Earth's atmosphere still blocked or distorted much of the light for observers on the ground. Larger telescopes were, and still are, placed atop mountains, where the thinner atmosphere at higher elevations allows clearer pictures.\n\nIn 1946, soon after World War II, astronomer Lyman Spitzer proposed launching a space telescope, which could overcome the limitations of ground-based observatories. It took a couple more decades before the idea garnered enough support for the U.S. National Academy of Sciences to organize a committee of scientists to evaluate the potential of a \"Large Space Telescope.\" With Spitzer at the helm, the committee published a document in 1969 that outlined the scientific uses of a Large Space Telescope and advocated for its construction, according to a Hubble history written by Gabriel Olkoski for NASA. \n\nThe National Academy of Sciences took the pitch to NASA — the only agency capable of making the Large Space Telescope a reality. NASA was already considering a space telescope of some type, but the agency was undecided about how big to make it and where to start. In 1971, George Low, the agency's acting administrator at the time, greenlit the Large Space Telescope Science Steering Group, and NASA soon began lobbying Congress for funding for the endeavor. \n\nThe expensive project was a tough sell, and funding was initially denied by the House Appropriations Subcommittee in 1975. NASA then upped its lobbying efforts and got buy-in from European Space Agency, which shared the costs. Congress eventually granted funding for NASA's portion of the Large Space Telescope in 1977. \n\nDevelopment began almost immediately. NASA planned to launch the telescope in 1983, but various production delays pushed the launch date back to 1986. \n\nIn the meantime, the Large Space Telescope was renamed Hubble in honor of Edwin Hubble, an American astronomer who, among other things, determined that the universe extended beyond the borders of the Milky Way. \n\nHubble's planned liftoff was delayed again after the space shuttle Challenger exploded a minute after takeoff on Jan. 28, 1986, killing all seven astronauts on board. It was more than 2.5 years before shuttle flights resumed and NASA could begin planning Hubble's launch again. \n\nHubble finally launched aboard the space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990 and a day later was deployed into low Earth orbit, about 340 miles (545 kilometers) above our planet. Getting Hubble developed and launched cost $1.5 billion, but there would be ongoing costs as well — both expected and unexpected.",

It took years of perseverance and advocacy before the project gained enough support to become a reality.\n\nAfter facing funding challenges and setbacks, NASA, in collaboration with the European Space Agency, brought the vision of the Large Space Telescope to life. Renamed in honor of Edwin Hubble, the telescope finally launched into space in 1990, marking a significant milestone in human exploration of the universe.\n\nFrom its humble beginnings to its breathtaking images and groundbreaking discoveries, the Hubble Space Telescope continues to captivate and inspire us, providing a window into the wonders of the cosmos.",

Technical delays in production also pushed back the planned launch date from 1983 to 1986.\n\nThe most significant setback was the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger in 1986, resulting in the loss of all seven astronauts on board. This tragic event caused a delay of over 2.5 years before shuttle flights resumed, further postponing the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope.\n\nDespite these challenges, NASA persevered, and Hubble finally launched in 1990, marking a remarkable achievement in space exploration.",

Milo was known for his playful antics and boundless energy, swinging from tree to tree with ease. Despite his small size, Milo had a big heart and always looked out for his fellow jungle dwellers.\n\nOne day, a fierce lion named Leo ruled the jungle with an iron paw. Leo was strong and mighty, but he was also arrogant and selfish. The other animals in the jungle lived in fear of Leo's wrath, constantly tiptoeing around him to avoid his anger.\n\nMilo, with his clever mind and quick wit, saw an opportunity to make a change. He knew that the jungle deserved a kind and compassionate leader, someone who would listen to the needs of all creatures, big and small. And so, Milo hatched a plan to challenge Leo for the throne.\n\nWith the help of his friends – the wise owl, the graceful gazelle, and the friendly elephant – Milo gathered the courage to confront Leo. In a showdown of wits and bravery, Milo outsmarted the lion and proved that true strength comes from kindness and empathy.\n\nImpressed by Milo's leadership qualities and genuine concern for the jungle's well-being, the animals of Banana Grove rallied behind him. Leo, realizing the error of his ways, gracefully stepped down and passed the crown to Milo, crowning him the new king of the jungle.\n\nUnder Milo's rule, the jungle flourished like never before. The animals lived in harmony, working together to solve problems and protect their home. Milo's reign brought peace and prosperity to Banana Grove, earning him the title of the beloved monkey king.\n\nAnd so, the tale of Milo, the monkey who became king of the jungle, spread far and wide, teaching children and adults alike the power of kindness, bravery, and unity in creating a better world for all beings to thrive.",

These extraterrestrial creatures had descended upon Mount Vernon, seeking to claim George's prized possession - his collection of antique wooden teeth. The aliens believed these teeth possessed mystical powers that could save their dying planet.\n\nWith his trusty musket in hand, George Washington stood his ground, determined to protect his beloved teeth at all costs. The aliens, with their advanced technology and strange tentacled limbs, underestimated the resilience of the first President of the United States. George fired his musket with precision, sending alien goo splattering across the cherry blossom trees.\n\nAs the battle raged on, George Washington's strategic mind came into play. He devised a plan to lure the aliens into a trap using cherry pie as bait, a favorite treat among the extraterrestrial beings. The aliens, unable to resist the delicious aroma, fell into George's cleverly laid trap, allowing him to defeat them one by one with his legendary swordsmanship.\n\nIn the end, George Washington emerged victorious, the aliens vanquished and his collection of wooden teeth safe once more. The people of Mount Vernon celebrated their hero, the man who not only fought for his country's freedom but also defended his quirky possessions against otherworldly invaders. And so, the legend of George Washington's epic battle against aliens over his wooden teeth was passed down through generations, a tale of courage, wit, and a touch of absurdity.",

His quick reflexes and keen eye for detail allowed him to anticipate their movements and counter with swift, decisive strikes. The aliens, unfamiliar with such traditional weaponry, were caught off guard by George's skillful swordplay.\n\nAs the battle raged on, George's sword danced through the air, cutting down alien foes left and right. His determination and courage fueled his every move, inspiring those around him to fight with equal valor. The clash of steel against alien exoskeletons echoed through the cherry blossom trees, a testament to George Washington's unwavering resolve in protecting what was dear to him.\n\nIn the end, it was George Washington's mastery of the sword that proved to be the decisive factor in defeating the aliens and securing his collection of wooden teeth. His prowess in combat, combined with his strategic thinking and bravery, solidified his status as a true American hero.

"content": "Can you summarize the plot to kill George Washington during the American Revolution and the role of Thomas Hickey in that plot in this text? \n\n\nIn 1776, while the American colonies were at war with Great Britain but before the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a plot was hatched by loyalists to kill George Washington and other leaders within the Continental Army. It was formed by the British-appointed governor of New York William Tyron and the loyalist mayor of New York City David Matthews. (This was not Tyron’s only attempt at sabotaging the colonies: he was also found guilty of running a counterfeiting operation to undermine their already struggling economy.) The plan was to turn members of the Life Guard, Washington’s personal guard, against their commander in chief and assassinate him, leaving the colonies without a leader and giving the British the supreme advantage in the war.\nIt is sometimes assumed that patriots were all loyal to the cause of independence from Britain, but this was not always the case. These were not hardened soldiers but were actually mainly civilians. Farmers, laborers, and others joined in the war effort. They were often not very well off, and the British preyed on that. Some soldiers switched sides when they believed that their side was losing. One of those people was Thomas Hickey.\nHickey was a member of the Life Guard that was handpicked by Washington. Hickey was born in Ireland and joined the British Army during the Seven Years’ War. He deserted and joined the Connecticut militia when the American Revolution broke out. He went on to join the Life Guard. It is unclear when Hickey turned to the loyalist cause or if he was always a loyalist, but it is clear that he became part of the conspiracy to kill Washington. Part of his job was to recruit other members of the Life Guard to the loyalist cause.",

Joining the Connecticut militia during the American Revolution suggests a shift in allegiance, but his previous military experience and potential connections to loyalist networks could have made him susceptible to recruitment for the plot.

"content": "Go through the text below and extract the characteristics that Grover Cleveland won praise for. Present each characteristic on a separate line and in alphabetical order.\n\nStephen Grover Cleveland (March 18, 1837 – June 24, 1908) was an American lawyer and politician who served as the 22nd and 24th president of the United States from 1885 to 1889 and from 1893 to 1897. Cleveland is the only president in U.S. history to serve two non-consecutive presidential terms.[b] He won the popular vote in three presidential elections—1884, 1888, and 1892—though Benjamin Harrison won the electoral college vote and thus the presidency in 1888. Cleveland was one of two Democrats elected president (followed by Woodrow Wilson in 1912) in an era when Republicans dominated the presidency between 1861 to 1933.\n\nIn 1881, Cleveland was elected mayor of Buffalo, and in 1882, he was elected governor of New York. He was the leader of the pro-business Bourbon Democrats who opposed high tariffs, free silver, inflation, imperialism, and subsidies to business, farmers, or veterans. His crusade for political reform and fiscal conservatism made him an icon for American conservatives of the era.[1] Cleveland won praise for his honesty, self-reliance, integrity, and commitment to the principles of classical liberalism.[2] He fought political corruption, patronage, and bossism. As a reformer, his prestige led many like-minded Republicans, called \"Mugwumps\", to bolt from the Republican Party's presidential ticket and swing their support to Cleveland during the 1884 election. Fifteen months into his first presidential term, he married Frances Folsom on June 2, 1886.[3] As his second administration began, disaster hit the nation when the Panic of 1893 produced a severe national depression. It ruined his Democratic Party, opening the way for a Republican landslide in 1894 and for the agrarian and silverite seizure of the Democratic Party in 1896. The result was a political realignment that ended the Third Party System and launched the Fourth Party System and the Progressive Era.[4]\n\nCleveland was a formidable policymaker, and he also drew corresponding criticism. His intervention in the Pullman Strike of 1894 to keep the railroads moving angered labor unions nationwide in addition to the party in Illinois; his support of the gold standard and opposition to free silver alienated the agrarian wing of the Democratic Party.[5] Critics complained that Cleveland had little imagination and seemed overwhelmed by the nation's economic disasters—depressions and strikes—in his second term.[5] Even so, his reputation for probity and good character survived the troubles of his second term. Biographer Allan Nevins wrote, \"[I]n Grover Cleveland, the greatness lies in typical rather than unusual qualities. He had no endowments that thousands of men do not have. He possessed honesty, courage, firmness, independence, and common sense. But he possessed them to a degree other men do not.\"[6] By the end of his second term, public perception showed him to be one of the most unpopular U.S. presidents, and he was by then rejected even by most Democrats.[7] Today, Cleveland is considered by most historians to have been a successful leader, and has been praised for honesty, integrity, adherence to his morals, defying party boundaries, and effective leadership.\n\nStephen Grover Cleveland was born on March 18, 1837, in Caldwell, New Jersey, to Ann (née Neal) and Richard Falley Cleveland.[8] Cleveland's father was a Congregational and Presbyterian minister who was originally from Connecticut.[9] His mother was from Baltimore and was the daughter of a bookseller.[10] On his father's side, Cleveland was descended from English ancestors, the first of the family having emigrated to Massachusetts from Cleveland, England, in 1635.[11] His father's maternal grandfather, Richard Falley Jr., fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill, and was the son of an immigrant from Guernsey. On his mother's side, Cleveland was descended from Anglo-Irish Protestants and German Quakers from Philadelphia.[12] Cleveland was distantly related to General Moses Cleaveland, after whom the city of Cleveland, Ohio, was named.[13]\n\nCleveland, the fifth of nine children, was named Stephen Grover in honor of the first pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Caldwell, where his father was pastor at the time. He became known as Grover in his adult life.[14] In 1841, the Cleveland family moved to Fayetteville, New York, where Grover spent much of his childhood.[15] Neighbors later described him as \"full of fun and inclined to play pranks\",[16] and fond of outdoor sports.[17]\n\nIn 1850, Cleveland's father Richard moved his family to Clinton, New York, accepting a job there as district secretary for the American Home Missionary Society.[18] Despite his father's dedication to his missionary work, his income was insufficient for the large family. Financial conditions forced him to remove Grover from school and place him in a two-year mercantile apprenticeship in Fayetteville. The experience was valuable and brief, and the living conditions quite austere. Grover returned to Clinton and his schooling at the completion of the apprentice contract.[19] In 1853, missionary work began to take a toll on Richard's health. He took a new work assignment in Holland Patent, New York (near Utica), and moved his family once again.[20] Shortly after, Richard Cleveland died from a gastric ulcer. Grover was said to have learned about his father's death from a boy selling newspapers.[20]",

My husband and I have been together for five years, and things have generally been good between us. However, a seemingly trivial incident has escalated into a huge argument, and now I'm at a loss.\n\nIt all started when I made myself a delicious ham sandwich for lunch yesterday. I carefully selected the freshest bread, layered on the ham, added some cheese and veggies, and finished it off with a touch of mustard. Just as I was about to take my first bite, my husband walked into the kitchen and casually asked if he could have a bite.\n\nI know it may sound silly, but I hesitated. I had been looking forward to this sandwich all morning, and I didn't really want to share it. I politely told him that I didn't mind making him his own sandwich, but this one was mine. Well, that's when things took a turn.\n\nHe looked at me like I had grown two heads and accused me of being selfish and petty over a stupid sandwich. The argument quickly escalated, with him saying that marriage is about sharing everything, even a simple sandwich. I argued back that it's not about the sandwich itself, but the principle of respecting each other's boundaries and desires.\n\nNow, we're in a cold war over a ham sandwich. He's sulking in the living room, and I'm in the bedroom feeling hurt and misunderstood. Am I being unreasonable for not wanting to share my sandwich? Should I just give in to keep the peace, or is this indicative of a larger issue in our relationship?\n\nPlease help me, Reddit. I never thought a ham sandwich could cause such a rift between us.",

The villagers believed that whoever witnessed this rare phenomenon would be blessed with good fortune for the rest of their days.\n\nOne crisp morning, as the dew glistened on the grass and the birds sang sweet melodies, a young girl named Lily set out on a quest to find the elusive rainbow. Armed with nothing but hope and curiosity, she wandered through the meadows, following the whispers of the wind.\n\nAfter hours of searching, just as the sun began to set, Lily stumbled upon a hidden clearing at the edge of the forest. And there, in all its glory, arched a magnificent rainbow, its colors shimmering like precious gems in the fading light.\n\nAs she stood in awe, a gentle voice filled the air, offering her a choice: to keep the rainbow's magic for herself or to share it with others in need. Without hesitation, Lily chose to share the blessing, knowing that true happiness comes from spreading joy and kindness.\n\nAnd so, as the rainbow slowly faded into the evening sky, a wave of warmth and light spread through the village, touching the hearts of all who lived there. From that day on, the villagers knew that the legend of the rainbow was not just a tale but a reminder that true magic lies in the power of generosity and compassion.",

"content": "What happens when too much bilirubin gets into the bloodstream?\n\nScan the text below to find out...\n\nA bilirubin blood test measures the levels of bilirubin in your blood. Bilirubin is a yellowish substance made during your body's normal process of breaking down old red blood cells. Bilirubin is found in bile, a fluid your liver makes that helps you digest food.\n\nIf your liver is healthy, it will remove most of the bilirubin from your body. If your liver is damaged, bilirubin can leak out of your liver and into your blood. When too much bilirubin gets into the bloodstream, it can cause jaundice, a condition that causes your skin and eyes to turn yellow. Signs of jaundice, along with a bilirubin blood test, can help your health care provider find out if you have liver disease.\n\nOther names: Total serum bilirubin, TSB\n\nA bilirubin blood test is used to check the health of your liver. The test is also commonly used to help diagnose newborn jaundice. Many healthy babies get jaundice because their livers aren't developed enough to get rid of enough bilirubin. Newborn jaundice is usually not harmful and clears up within a few weeks. But in some cases, high bilirubin levels can lead to brain damage, so infants are often tested as a precaution.\n\nYour provider may order a bilirubin blood test:\n\nIf you have symptoms such as jaundice, dark urine, or stomach pain. These could be symptoms of hepatitis, cirrhosis, or other liver diseases. They may also be signs of gallbladder disease.\nTo find out if there is a blockage in the bile ducts, the tubes that carry bile from your liver.\nTo check on an existing liver disease or disorder.\nTo diagnose disorders related to problems with breaking down red blood cells. High bilirubin levels in the bloodstream may be a sign of a condition called hemolytic anemia. In this condition, the body destroys red blood cells faster than it makes them.\n\nA health care professional will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. After the needle is inserted, a small amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. You may feel a little sting when the needle goes in or out. This usually takes less than five minutes.\n\nYour health care provider may tell you to fast (not eat or drink) for four hours before your blood test. If there are any other special instructions, your provider will let you know.\n\nThere is very little risk to having a blood test. You may experience slight pain or bruising at the spot where the needle was put in, but most symptoms go away quickly.\n\nNormal results can vary, but high bilirubin levels may mean your liver isn't working right. However, abnormal results don't always mean you have a medical condition that needs treatment. Other things may cause higher than normal bilirubin levels, such as certain medicines and foods or strenuous exercise. To learn what your results mean, talk with your provider.",

Research suggests that genetics play a role, with some genes potentially increasing the likelihood of being left-handed. Additionally, environmental factors during fetal development may also contribute to handedness.\n\nThe percentage of left-handed individuals varies globally, with rates typically around 10-12% in most populations. However, some regions have higher or lower prevalence rates due to cultural factors, societal attitudes, and genetic diversity. For example, countries like Japan have lower rates of left-handedness compared to countries like the Netherlands where left-handedness is more common. These variations highlight the complex interplay of genetics and environment in determining handedness.",

For example, exposure to testosterone in the womb has been linked to an increased likelihood of being left-handed. Additionally, the positioning of the fetus in the womb can lead to different levels of stimulation in the developing brain, potentially influencing handedness.\n\nCultural and societal factors can also influence the prevalence of left-handed individuals globally. In some cultures, left-handedness has been historically stigmatized or discouraged, leading to lower rates of left-handed individuals. On the other hand, in societies where left-handedness is accepted or even celebrated, the prevalence may be higher. These cultural attitudes can impact how individuals express their handedness and contribute to regional variations in left-handedness rates.",

"content": "What does this article say about how books are being treated in Florida schools?\n\nThis is the state that warned librarians to “err on the side of caution” when choosing books, or risk being charged with a third-degree felony for exposing kids to materials that run afoul of vague laws on what’s appropriate. It’s also the state where inappropriate or sexual material is more times than not flagged in books by LGBTQ and Black authors, held up by conservative activists as examples of perversion in our schools. Florida is the state that bans teachers from discussing sexual orientation or gender identity in all grades and limits how they can talk about race. It’s got a Legislature that made it more onerous for districts to approve and review books. Where schools preemptively asked teachers to remove books from their classrooms until they conducted that review process.\nLet’s keep in mind that this year the Florida Legislature passed a bill that allows any person in a county to challenge a book and force a district to pull it out of circulation until it goes through a review. If a parent disagrees with a district’s ruling on that challenge, they can appeal to the governor-appointed commissioner of education, who will most likely be all ears. No wonder a parent convinced a North Florida district to remove a novel about school segregation called “Little Rock Nine” — based on real events in U.S. history — from elementary schools even though it is at a third-grade reading level. Who needs book burnings when fear creates its own chilling effect? Who needs government censors when you have groups like Moms for Liberty skimming books to look for any hint of sexual content, no matter its literary value and appropriateness for upper grades, content that makes white people uncomfortable or so-called leftist indoctrination?\n",

In this scenario, a cat is placed in a sealed box with a radioactive atom that has a 50% chance of decaying and triggering a mechanism that releases poison, potentially killing the cat. According to quantum theory, before the box is opened and the cat's state observed, the cat exists in a superposition of being both alive and dead simultaneously. This concept highlights the peculiar nature of quantum superposition and the role of observation in collapsing the wave function to determine the cat's fate. The thought experiment is often used to illustrate the counterintuitive aspects of quantum mechanics and the role of measurement in determining outcomes.",

In Schrödinger's cat experiment, the cat being in a superposition of alive and dead serves as an illustration of quantum superposition, a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. Quantum superposition states that a particle can exist in multiple states simultaneously until it is observed or measured, at which point it collapses to a single state. In the case of the cat, before observation, the cat is in a superposition of both alive and dead, reflecting the idea that particles at the quantum level can exist in multiple states until measured. This experiment emphasizes the strange and non-intuitive nature of quantum mechanics, where objects can exist in multiple states at the same time, challenging our classical understanding of reality.",

It helps the car go faster by creating downforce, which is a force that pushes the car down onto the track. This helps the car grip the track better and go around corners faster.\n\n\nThe rear wing is located at the back of the car, and it looks like a big flat airplane wing. It's made up of two parts: the main plane and the flap. The main plane is the big, flat part, and the flap is the smaller, adjustable part that can move up or down.\n\n\nWhen the car is going in a straight line, the flap is usually set at a very small angle to the main plane. This creates a small amount of downforce, which helps the car grip the track better. But when the car is going around a corner, the flap can be adjusted to a steeper angle. This creates more downforce, which helps the car go around the corner faster without sliding off the track.\n\nSo, the rear wing of an F1 car is a very important part of the car's aerodynamics, helping it go faster and grip the track better by creating downforce.\n\n\nTherefore basically, an F1 car is designed to be really fast by using the power of the wind, and the shape of the car and its wings help it stay on the ground and go even faster.

This change in angle generates even more downward force, which acts like a powerful magnet, keeping the car securely on the track as it zips through the corner with speed and precision.\n\nJust like how a superhero's cape helps them soar through the sky and tackle villains, the rear wing of an F1 car harnesses the power of the wind to ensure the car races like a true champion, sticking to the track and dominating each turn with finesse.",

Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the rest of Andy’s toys have become indelible parts of our movie-going culture, much like Mickey Mouse, Cinderella and Snow White. Ever since that big hit in 1995, Pixar has put out one quality film after another, including most recent masterpieces WALL-E and Up. But while those two films introduced new worlds and characters, the creators of Toy Story 3 faced the immense challenge of not only living up to the quality of the previous two installments in the series, but not desecrating those beloved characters by delivering a limp third part to the trilogy.\n\nI am happy to report that Toy Story 3 is not only one of Pixar’s best films, but perhaps the best of the Toy Story trilogy. Returning to the familiar themes, mainly the feelings of insecurity and obsolesce that come with the passage of time, Toy Story 3 picks up years after the second part. Andy is now ready to head off to college and Woody and friends are déclassé, relegated to a toy chest. But when a horrible mistake almost sends the gang off to the garbage dump, Buzz Lightyear makes a decision that re-routes the toys to a daycare center with the hope that someone will play with them. Unfortunately, a mafia of toys already rules this daycare and a plush teddy bear named Lotso (Ned Beatty) and a Ken doll (Michael Keaton) conspire to banish Andy’s toys to the infant classroom, a fate worse than death. Naturally, it is up to Woody to save them.\n\nEven though Toy Story 3 hews to a similar format of the previous installment, that doesn’t mean it lacks thrills, laughs, excitement and peril. Essentially a prison break film, Toy Story 3 also makes knowing references to film noir, Westerns and numerous other filmic tropes. Pixar has always made movies that can be appreciated on many levels, and this one is no exception. ",
