• Reasons for the necessity of water heater inspection:

  • If you have been experiencing issues with your hot water, it's a good time to speak to maintenance and solve the problem
  • Items stored in the water heater closet need to be removed before the inspection
  • The yearly inspection window ends on Friday, March 25th
  • The yearly inspection required by NYC housing law will be conducted in each unit
• Residents are advised to schedule a time for a maintenance team member to inspect their water heater through the resident portal
• Residents can choose a time for inspection even if they won't be home, but must authorize entry
• If a time is not selected by March 25th, a maintenance team member will conduct the inspection, and NYC housing will be notified if entry is refused
• The passage discusses the impact of the pandemic and everyday stressors on sleep, suggesting that better rest is achievable with simple habit changes
• An alarming increase in colorectal cancer rates among younger adults is highlighted, with potential causes such as obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and poor eating habits
• The passage provides a recipe for Yellow Cake Bar Blondies, listing ingredients and steps for preparation
• The Dewey Decimal Classes are listed, categorizing subjects from computer science to history, geography, and biography
• The passage discusses the benefits of seniors owning pets in nursing homes and assisted living facilities, improving their happiness, life expectancy, and overall well-being
• The passage promotes subscription cooking boxes as a solution to make cooking easier and more enjoyable during the pandemic
• College students are likely to engage in binge drinking and drug use due to:

  • Turmoil experienced while adapting to a major life change and living in new circumstances
  • Traveling a great distance to colleges and living without their families, especially older, more responsible adults, for the first time
  • Natural inclination to experiment and pressure to fit in and assimilate with new peers
  • Double pressure of deadlines, challenging classes, and the novel responsibility to handle it all on their own
• The five original Blue Zones identified by Dan Buettner in 2004 are:

  • Sardinia, Italy
  • Okinawa, Japan
  • Ikaria, Greece
  • Nicoya, Costa Rica
  • Loma Linda, California
• Common practices in Blue Zones for a long, well-lived life include:

  • Plant-based diet with little meat and emphasis on beans, whole grains, tubers, greens, and nuts
  • Small amounts of dairy, including eggs
  • Emphasis on water and tea consumption, with no more than two glasses of (red) wine daily
  • Frequent walking as a central component of life, leading to sociable interactions and close bonds
• Birds use the Earth's magnetic field as a migratory map, suggesting they can see magnetic field lines and use them as a guide along their journey

  • Birds possess special quantum eye traits that allow them to navigate using the magnetic field
  • Even if the magnetic field is inverted, birds experience no disruption to their sense of orientation
• Many single-celled organisms can easily allow substances to enter the cell due to the short distance they need to cross
• In contrast, multicellular organisms have a larger distance for substances to cross due to a higher surface area to volume ratio
• Multicellular organisms require specialized exchange surfaces for efficient gas exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen due to their higher surface area to volume ratio
• The main idea of the passage is that octopuses are very intelligent creatures
• Octopuses are able to apply learned information and adjust their strategies when solving problems
• Octopuses display curious and complex behavior, such as pulling out loose tank valves, opening jars, and escaping their tanks
• The passage discusses the intelligence of octopuses and their ability to interact with novel stimuli in new environments
• The main reason for the memo is to inform residents of the yearly water heater inspection and the necessary actions they must take
• Residents of 207 North 7th Street have a one-week window to have their water heaters inspected before the NYC housing authority is contacted
• The physical processes that influence glaciated upland landscapes include erosion, transport, deposition, weathering, and mass movement
• Glacial erosion is the breaking down and removal of rocks and sediment by natural forces
• In glacial environments, the two main forms of erosion are abrasion and plucking
• Abrasion in glacial environments is caused by small rocks embedded within the glacier rubbing on bedrock, leaving a smooth surface with scratches called striations
• Plucking in glacial environments occurs when meltwater from glaciers freeze around broken or cracked parts of rock, breaking it off from the bedrock or sides as the ice moves down the slope
• Single-celled organisms have a short distance for substances to enter the cell, while multicellular organisms have a larger distance due to a higher surface area to volume ratio
• Multicellular organisms require specialised exchange surfaces for efficient gas exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen due to their higher surface area to volume ratio
• Some residents have been storing personal items in their water heater closet
• The main idea of the passage is that building management at 207 North 7th Street needs cooperation from residents to ensure that each unit’s water heater is inspected
• The yearly inspection required by NYC housing law will be conducted in each unit
• Residents at 207 North 7th Street must use their portal to conduct all communication
• This yearly inspection required by NYC housing law will be conducted in each unit
• If your water heater closet has any items currently stored in it, these items will need to be removed before the inspection
• The yearly inspection window will end on Friday, March 25th
• Unfortunately, children often struggle to adjust to changes in their schedule due to Daylight Saving Time
• During World War I, several European countries initiated daylight saving time as a wartime practice to conserve fuel used by electricity for indoor lighting
• Reinstated by FDR during World War II, daylight saving time was rendered optional afterward
