Our first MVP we built here at MVPin30 was [UberTok](http://ubertok.com) got some updates this week, mostly minor.

1. We made some minor UI changes to our CTA buttons, just to draw more attention to where to click.
2. cleaned up code to be faster.
3. Made our email templates a little nicer.

UberTok has been doing well since it launched, hosting many video conferences so far so it's always fun to come back
and take a look at what can be done to make it nicer, without changing too much wholesale.

This is also a part of the MVPin30 philosophy, as well as a major part of the agile framework:

1. Get your MVP out the door
2. Iterate to the next phase
3. Go to Step 2

I recently saw a race entry fee for £57. Can you believe that? £57! to run on in places which are normally free and it got me thinking, is living a healthy lifestyle becoming inaccessible for some people? The costs of gyms are sky high and food prices are forever on the increase. Instead of worry too much about aspects I can't control I thought I would share with you 7 top tips to make your money go a little further, and given that it is the first of the month, I thought I might call this Frugal February.
You might think that this is a weird suggestion for a fitness blogger but seriously, who needs a gym membershio when you can get outside for free. If you don't use your gym membership, cancel it. In fact, why not cancel all of the subscription packages you don't use - I'm thinking Amazon Prime, ASOS Premier, Skype Premium, Spotify. You might be surprised with how much you could save. You could put the money towards some Dumbbells and a mat, which won't cost you much, and certainly less than a gym. You could swap your gym membership and set up your own home gym.
Instead of spending £5 to £10 a day in Pret or other lunch establishments cook an extra portion of food at each meal time and take it for lunch the next day or pop it in the freezer so it's there on those nights when you reeeeallly don't want to cook and a takeaway begins to look like a good option. Not only will you save money but not buying lunch on the go will ensure that you don't make bad food choices. You'll be fuelled for the rest of your day with home cooked, nutritious meals.
I would imagine that most people reading this could save £20 a week if they put their mind to it. One less coffee here and there and perhaps remove the temptation to splurge on running and active wear. Did you realise that if you save £20 each week for a year you could save £1,040. That's big money and in real terms that's two holidays or adventures paid for. I've set up a separate bank account and named it "Adventure Fund". Each Friday I send £20 to that account and this Friday we are cashing in and using the money for train tickets up to Aviemore on the overnight sleeper. It's great to be able to do something like that without having to be put off by the cost.
An easy double win here. If you are someone who is guilty of taking the car everywhere or maybe splashing out on an Uber, challenge yourself to walk more. Every time you would have taken the tube or grabbed a taxi pop that money into an account and see how much you save. PLUS, this is the ultimate free workout. The government recommend that we aim to walk 10,000 steps a day. Think how easily you would do that if you switched to walking half an hour every day.
- Adidas Studio in London, do free classes daily and they have awesome trainers. They also have a free run club.
- Speedflex offer a two week trial of their classes in London and Newcastle and you can see how I got on at my free class here.
- OurParks also offer free outside classes and I have previously written about them here.
Buying new workout gear is exciting and motivating, until you see your bank statement. I've mentioned them a few times on the blog before but Start Fitness always have fantastic kit at really reasonable prices. I buy my kit from there and recommend them to all of my friends. This is not a sponsored post I just really rate them. You also get 10% off your first order.
7. Travel using a Two Together Travel Card.
I am a big advocate of making the most of your weekends #LivingInTheWeekend What better way to do this than to zip off and explore somewhere new with your friends and family. Did you know that National Rail now offer a discount voucher for any two people who travel together. You don't have to be at university or a certain age. The card is £30 and it gives you a third off rail fares which can lead to some epic savings if your going far.
So that's it. A very different blog post to normal but I am really passionate about helping people to live their best lives. These little tips won't make you a millionare overnight but they will help to keep you active, eat better and reduce your money worries, and surely that's got to be worth quite a bit.
Feel free to share any of your own money saving tips especially if they lead to healthy living.
The photographs in this piece are all taken on Bamburgh Beach in collaboration with Tog 24. You can shop the coat here. We stayed in Friar's Farm Cottage which I highly recommend that you check out here.

Euthanasia refers to the practice of ending a life in a manner which relieves pain and suffering. According to the House of Lords Select Committee on Medical Ethics, the precise definition of euthanasia is "a deliberate intervention undertaken with the express intention of ending a life, to relieve intractable suffering.
Euthanasia is categorized in different ways, which include voluntary, non-voluntary, or involuntary and active or passive. Euthanasia is usually used to refer to active euthanasia, and in this sense, euthanasia is usually considered to be criminal homicide, but voluntary, passive euthanasia is widely non-criminal.
The controversy surrounding euthanasia centers around a two-pronged argument by opponents which characterizes euthanasia as either voluntary "suicides", or as involuntary murders. (Hence, opponents argue that a broad policy of "euthanasia" is tantamount to eugenics). Much hinges on whether a particular death was considered an "easy", "painless", or "happy" one, or whether it was a "wrongful death". Proponents typically consider a death that increased suffering to be "wrongful", while opponents typically consider any deliberate death as "wrongful". "Euthanasia's" original meaning introduced the idea of a "rightful death" beyond that only found in natural deaths.
Voluntary euthanasia
Euthanasia conducted with the consent of the patient is termed voluntary euthanasia. Active voluntary euthanasia is legal in Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. Passive voluntary euthanasia is legal throughout the U.S. per Cruzan v. Director, Missouri Department of Health. When the patient brings about his or her own death with the assistance of a physician, the term assisted suicide is often used
instead. Assisted suicide is legal in Switzerland and the U.S. states of Oregon, Washington and Montana.
Non-voluntary euthanasia
Euthanasia conducted where the consent of the patient is unavailable is termed non-voluntary...

The Junior Travel Ambassadors (JTAs) are two pupils from each Year 5 and 6 class who are responsible for promoting active travel such as walking, cycling, scootering and road safety.
They also help prepare children for more independent travel in Year 6 and when they transfer to Secondary school.
The JTAs work with the school Travel Plan Champion – Mrs Thomas, to carry out assemblies, conduct surveys, give classroom talks, and help complete the school travel plan. They plan and run competitions and special events each year.
JTAs term of office is for two years, so our Year 5 children can learn from Year 6 and take on more responsibility in their second year of office.
The JTAs meet regularly to share ideas and opinions, make plans and organise events.
The Junior Travel Ambassador scheme is run by TfL (Transport for London).
To find out more about Junior Travel Ambassadors, please see the TfL website.
Here is our first team of JTA.
Mrs Pelham, Mrs Thomas and some Y6 children went out on the street outside the school between 8.30am to 9.10am with some people from Barnet council to look at the effect of cars and pollution.
The team had an instrument to measure the air pollution and unsurprisingly the air pollution grew worse as the time went on. However the air pollution was made much worse by families sitting in their cars with the engines running – allowing pollution into the air.
Thankfully everyone who was spoken to was very polite and switched off their engines. Please can I ask you not to be selfish.
If you come to school early, please wrap up warm with a coat and a jumper and switch off your engine. Over a thousand people walk up the street close to the school and don't want to have to walk through excess fumes. This is also very bad for children with chest conditions and asthma. So don't be an engine idler!!!!!!!
For the health and well being of pupils, families and staff, please turn your engine off once you've parked safely, legally and with consideration, as pollution reduces air quality.
The children came in to school wearing very bright clothes – everyone made a great effort. We have done this day as part of our work on road safety and reminding children about the need to be seen when they are walking or riding bikes in the dark.


The PIN-group is led by Prof. Harold Zandvliet and the research field involves controlled preparation and understanding of interfaces, low-dimensional (nano)structures and nanomaterials. We focus on systems that (1) rely on state-of-the art applications or (2) can potentially lead to future applications.
Our research interest is driven by the fact that on a nanometer length scale the material properties depend on size, shape and dimensionality. A key challenge of our research activities is to obtain control over the properties in such a way that we are able to tailor the properties for (device) applications, ranging from nano/micro-electronics, nano-electromechanical systems (NEMS) and wettability to sustainable energy related issues.
Nanoscience and nanotechnology involve studying and working with matter on an ultra-small scale. Advances in nanotechnology are mainly driven by new materials, new functionalities of known materials and novel device architectures. Many challenges, however, remain to be solved in order to fully exploit the functions of these nanoscale materials to enable robust technologies. Our research activities constitute an integral approach to addressing these challenges. Nanoscale materials have a much larger surface area to volume ratio than their bulk counterparts, thus their electrical, optical, magnetic and mechanical properties are dominated by surface or interface effects rather than bulk effects. In order to obtain a deeper insight into nanoscale systems we study their physical, chemical and especially electronic properties with high spatial and spectroscopic resolution techniques. With our background and long-standing expertise in interface/surface science we feel perfectly set for this challenging program.

Where Have All the Children Gone? COVID-era Kindergarten Enrollment Drop Raises Deep Concerns
By Nadra Nittle
Newly released figures from the Los Angeles Unified School District – one of the nation's largest – show that roughly 6,000 fewer students registered for kindergarten this school year than in the previous year – a roughly 14% decrease from last year's number of 42,912 children.
At a recent public address, Superintendent Austin Beutner said the biggest declines came from the most impoverished neighborhoods, where economic hardship resulting from the pandemic is most acute.
Kindergarten enrollment is down in Los Angeles Unified School District, which worries some. Photo: 123rf
"We suspect some of this is because families may lack the ability to provide full-time support at home for online learning, which is necessary for very young learners," Beutner said. "This is yet another reminder that this crisis is having a disproportionate impact on low-income families."
Formal education isn't legally required for California children younger than age 6, but experts have long said that high-quality preschool and kindergarten programs can narrow racial and economic achievement gaps among students. That's why this year's kindergarten decline could roll back the academic progress of vulnerable students – low-income youth, English language learners, children in foster care or from communities of color.
And as the spread of coronavirus leads to unprecedented job, housing and food insecurity, Beutner expects volatility in enrollment to continue for the foreseeable future.
"Since the crisis began, schools have had to balance three, sometimes–conflicting, priorities: the learning needs of students, the needs of working families and the health and safety of all in the school community," he said during his Aug. 31 update to the LAUSD community.
Los Angeles Unified schools ended in-person instruction on March 13, but with COVID-19 cases dropping and protocols easing up, the 600,000-student district is preparing to reopen classrooms, a move it could make as early as November. New precautions include preparing to administer COVID-19 tests on school campuses and launching an app for students and staff to self-screen for symptoms.
Still, the implementation of these safety measures may not boost the lagging kindergarten enrollment, a prospect that alarms advocates for struggling children and families.
"If we don't get the early learning right, these kids are never going to graduate," said Sandy Mendoza, director of advocacy for Families in Schools. The Los Angeles-based organization encourages parents to take an active role in their children's education.
"We're going to have a lot of children who will be left further behind than they already were," Mendoza said, adding that the societal impacts could be long-lasting. "We're not going to have the labor force that we really need to carry us into the next decades."
Children who sit out kindergarten may not only suffer academically but also socially, entering first grade without basic skills, such as knowing to raise their hands to participate in class, or how to follow their teachers' instructions.
The benefits of virtual kindergarten during the pandemic, however, remain unclear as schools and teachers try to figure out the best way to engage small children through computer screens, said Samantha Tran, Children Now's senior managing director of education policy.
And as families shift their housing to survive the current economic crisis, Tran expects children to move around a lot, another potential factor in the kindergarten decline. Since schools receive funding based on pupil attendance, "a major enrollment dip and a lot of student mobility" could have fiscal implications for districts in the years to come, Tran said. This could hurt schools' ability to provide quality education to students once the enrollment numbers pick up.
For Mendoza, the fact that a growing number of parents didn't enroll their children in kindergarten well before the pandemic is concerning. During the 2017-18 school year, for example, 46,634 kindergartners enrolled in LAUSD; this year just 36,914 are enrolled.
"Not all families, especially if they're new to this country or new to the public education system, understand how important early education can be to ensure that their child is on the path to success," Mendoza said. "Some of that I think needs to be addressed through a public education campaign and greater understanding of how child development can be better supported with kindergarten."
Mendoza said mandatory kindergarten attendance could reverse the trend. Nationally, just Washington, D.C., and 17 states require school districts to offer a full day of kindergarten, despite research indicating that it improves the academic performance, self-confidence and interpersonal skills of children by the following year.
In California, public officials and education experts have debated making kindergarten mandatory, with some arguing that parents should be allowed to make that choice for their children. A year like 2020 could influence lawmakers to change their stance on mandatory kindergarten enrollment, Tran said. It's also difficult to know how many parents are keeping their children in preschools equipped with kindergarten classes rather than switching them over to public elementary schools.
Meanwhile, the pandemic has forced many preschools to close their doors just as public schools have. And as parents juggle full-time jobs with full-time child-rearing, some are too pressed for time to oversee distance learning. Others lack technology or the digital know-how, problems that also factor into the kindergarten decline.
For years, the digital divide has affected economically disadvantaged families, Mendoza noted, but most school districts failed to address the issue until the pandemic left them no choice.
"Now, they're making it happen because of distance learning, but they could have done it sooner," Mendoza said. Previously, "there was no impetus for them to do it."
Had the government made the necessary investments in early childhood education years ago, the problems the pandemic has exposed likely wouldn't be as dire now, she noted, problems exacerbating already rampant racial and economic injustice faced by Los Angeles children and families.
Combating them will require intervention at the local, state and federal levels, Mendoza said: "The actions that we take today are going to matter in the next couple of decades. We need an investment in early education because that's been neglected, and we can't ignore how young ones are going to be left behind."

Amphidinolides (pictured) are a group of marine natural products isolated from dinoflagellates of the genus Amphidinium. Amphidinolide C and F differ in their side chains but share a common macrolide core with a signature 1,4-diketone substructure. The attraction of these targets is amplified by the dense decoration of the carbon skeleton with 12 and 11 stereocenters, respectively, two trans-configured THF-rings, and two 1,3-diene units, one of which is in a "non-thermodynamic" exo/endo-orientation. Despite the high degree of structural homology between the two amphidinolides, they exhibit strikingly different biological activities. The amphidinolide C is the most cytotoxic with IC50 values in the single-digit ng/mL range.
Alois Fürstner and colleagues, Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung, Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, implemented a strategy for the synthesis of amphidinolide C and F using ring-closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM). While this reaction is currently gaining momentum, applications in the synthesis of complex natural products are scarce. The key intermediate in the synthesis was assembled from three building blocks by Yamaguchi esterification and Stille cross-coupling, with ring-closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) used for the macrocyclization step.
This approach illustrates the exquisite alkynophilicity of the catalysts chosen for the RCAM and alkyne hydroalkoxylation steps, which activate triple bonds with remarkable ease but left up to five other π-systems in the respective substrates intact.

Sinitic languages
Chinese kinship
Family Law (TV series)
Family Law (film)
The Sinitic languages, are a family of Sino-Tibetan languages, often synonymous with the group of Chinese varieties. They have frequently been postulated to constitute a primary branch, but this is rejected by an increasing number of researchers. The Bai languages and possible relatives, whose classification is difficult, may also be Sinitic; otherwise Sinitic is equivalent to Chinese, and the term may be used to indicate that the varieties of Chinese are distinct languages rather than dialects of a single language.

The Chinese kinship system (simplified Chinese: 亲属系统; traditional Chinese: 親屬系統; pinyin: qīn shǔ xì tǒng) is classified as a "Sudanese" or "descriptive" system for the definition of family. Identified by Lewis Henry Morgan in his 1871 work Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family, the Sudanese system is one of the six major kinship systems together with Eskimo, Hawaiian, Iroquois, Crow, and Omaha.
The Sudanese/Chinese kinship system is the most complicated of all kinship systems. It maintains a separate designation for almost every one of Ego's kin based on their generation, their lineage, their relative age, and their gender.
In the Chinese kinship system:
Maternal and paternal lineages are distinguished. For example, a mother's brother and a father's brother have different terms.
The relative age of a sibling relation is considered. For example, a father's younger brother has a different terminology than his older brother.
The gender of the relative is distinguished, as in English.

Family law (also called matrimonial law) is an area of the law that deals with family matters and domestic relations, including:
marriage, civil unions, and domestic partnerships;
child abuse and child abduction
the termination of relationships and ancillary matters, including divorce, annulment, property settlements, alimony, child custody and visitation, child support and alimony awards.
juvenile adjudication
paternity testing and paternity fraud
This list is not exhaustive and varies depending on jurisdiction. In many jurisdictions in the United States, the family courts see the most crowded dockets. Litigants representative of all social and economic classes are parties within the system.

Family Law (Spanish: Derecho de familia) is a 2006 Argentine, French, Italian, and Spanish, comedy-drama film, written and directed by Daniel Burman.
The picture was produced by Diego Dubcovsky, José María Morales, and Marc Sillam, and co-produced by Amedeo Pagani. Family Law was Argentina official submission for the 2004 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film
The film tells the story of Ariel Perelman (Daniel Hendler). While he has an easygoing lifestyle, he's trying to find his way in life in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He works at a university as a law professor. The film begins with a long narration of the way things stand in his life. He describes his father, Bernardo Perelman (Arturo Goetz), in detail. Perelman, as he's known, is a popular public defender who meets his clients where they work or in restaurants so he can determine what they are "all about." Most of his clients are generally poor. He's very close to his secretary (Adriana Aizemberg) since his wife died fifteen years ago. Work fills Perelman's days, and Ariel is astonished by his energy.

The Book of the All-Virtuous Wisdom of Joshua ben Sira, commonly called the Wisdom of Sirach or simply Sirach, and also known as the Book of Ecclesiasticus (abbreviated Ecclus.) or Ben Sira, is a work of ethical teachings, from approximately 200 to 175 BCE, written by the Jewish scribe Ben Sira of Jerusalem, on the inspiration of his father Joshua son of Sirach, sometimes called Jesus son of Sirach or Yeshua ben Eliezer ben Sira.
In Egypt, it was translated into Greek by the author's (unnamed) grandson, who added a prologue. This prologue is generally considered the earliest witness to a canon of the books of the prophets, and thus the date of the text as we have it is the subject of intense scrutiny. The book itself is the largest wisdom book from antiquity to have survived.
Sirach is accepted as part of the Christian biblical canons by Catholics, Orthodox, and most Oriental Orthodox. The Anglican Church does not accept Sirach as protocanonical, and say it should be read only "for example of life and instruction of manners; but yet doth not apply them to establish any doctrine." Similarly, the Lutheran Churches include it in their lectionaries, and as a book proper for reading, devotion, and prayer. It was cited in some writings in early Christianity.
There are claims that it is cited in the Epistle of James, and also the non-canonical Didache (iv. 5) and Epistle of Barnabas (xix. 9). Clement of Alexandria and Origen quote from it repeatedly, as from a γραφή, or holy book. The Catalogue of Cheltenham, Pope Damasus I, the Councils of Hippo (393) and Council of Carthage (397), Pope Innocent I, the second Council of Carthage (419), and Augustine all regarded it as canonical, although the Council of Laodicea, of Jerome, and of Rufinus of Aquileia, ranked it instead as an ecclesiastical book. The Apostolic Canons (not recognized by the Catholic Church) stated as venerable and sacred the Wisdom of Sirach. The Roman Catholic Church declared it to be canonical in 1546 during the fourth session of the Council of Trent.
Sirach is not part of the Jewish canon, once thought to have been established at the hypothetical Council of Jamnia, perhaps due to its late authorship, although it is not clear that the canon was completely "closed" at the time of Ben Sira. Others have suggested that Ben Sira's self-identification as the author precluded it from attaining canonical status, which was reserved for works that were attributed (or could be attributed) to the prophets, or that it was denied entry to the canon as a rabbinical counter-reaction to its embrace by the nascent Christian community.
However, some Jews in the diaspora considered Sirach scripture. For instance, it was included in the canon of the Septuagint, the 2nd century BCE Greek version of the Jewish scriptures used by Diaspora Jews, through which it became part of the Greek canon. The multiplicity of manuscript fragments uncovered in the Cairo Genizah evidence its authoritative status among Egyptian Jewry until the Middle Ages.

Industrial riding record-setting wave as 2022 arrives
Dan Rafter December 23, 2021
How strong has the U.S. industrial market been in 2021? Strong enough to set an all-time record for sales volume during the first 11 months of the year.
According to the latest research from CommercialEdge, industrial transactions in the United States totaled $61.6 billion in the country's biggest markets through the first 11 months of 2021. That's an all-time high.
At the same time, sales prices for industrial properties averaged $111 a square foot in November. That's up 27.4 percent on a year-over-year basis.
In the Midwest, indusrial sales volume in Chicago moved past the $4 billion threshold in November.
The industrial surge has kept developers busy. By the end of November, 293.9 million square feet of industrial supply was delivered across the country during 2021. An additional 555.4 million square feet of industrial space is under construction, making up 3.4 percent of the total stock on a national level.

An Unexpected Ally
Apologetics.com > Blogs > Peter Harris > An Unexpected Ally
Lessons Learned from Evangelist and Gospel Patron Ravi Zacharias (1946-2020)
Posted by Peter Harris on January 9, 2021 in Peter Harris, Philosophical Apologetics
When I jettisoned my Christian faith at the age of nineteen, it was partly the fault of the great British philosopher Bertrand Russell (1872-1970). Late night debates with a fellow undergraduate who seemed to know all the arguments against God's existence kicked down my faith's door. Russell's book Why I Am Not a Christian shattered the walls. The foundations collapsed when another acquaintance, whom I regarded as a mature Christian, could give me no better reason for being a Christian than that I just had to believe it as it was a matter of faith. My Christianity was a ruin for the following nine years. I defined myself as an agnostic but lived as if God did not exist.
There is one part of Russell's writings though that I would recommend to all Christians: it is his discussion of the nature of truth which appears in the twelfth chapter of his book The Problems of Philosophy. In an age of religious relativism in which the multitude of competing and contradictory religious beliefs make them appear unverifiable and therefore best treated as expressions of personal preference rather than checkable truth claims, Russell's exposition of the correspondence theory of truth is a healthy reminder that what is true is objectively true regardless of what people prefer to be true and that it is expressed in propositions that are checkable and conform with reality.
How does this connect with Christianity? Christians make an assortment of propositions as to what they regard as real. Some treat their beliefs as instructional myths and metaphors for natural realities. These non-realists might say that though Adam and Eve never existed, their story of disobedience is important for it provides an insight into the transgressive nature of human beings. The belief in Judgement Day is not about an actual day but is a metaphor for the conscience whose judgements feel final for those who take their consciences seriously. However, most Christians are realists in that what they assert is what they consider really to be the case. A kind of proposition that is essential to realist Christian faith is the historical proposition. Christianity is an historical faith not only because it has been around for two thousand years, but because it asserts certain truth claims about the past. One such proposition is that Jesus was crucified. As the crucifixion is so central to Christian belief, it is hard to see how most Christians' belief can hold up if it were not true. The correspondence theory of truth as elucidated by Russell does not mean that Christian historical propositions are true, but it is a means of testing whether they are true and if found to be true, rule out other propositions such as Jesus never died, Jesus was never crucified, and Jesus did not exist in the first place. The correspondence theory of truth therefore provides an escape route out of the impasse of religious relativism. If found to be true, the historical propositions of Christianity also play their part in establishing Christianity as a realist faith. Russell himself tested Christian beliefs by asking whether they corresponded with reality, though he drew the conclusion that they were false.
For Russell, truth and its correlative falsehood are properties of beliefs as expressed in propositions. For instance, if I say, "There is a black and white cat sitting on my lawn", I could mean several things. I could be giving a password to get into a secret location. I could be telling the punchline of a joke. But if I mean that there is actually a black and white cat sitting on my lawn, then my sentence is a proposition and is either true or false.
The truth or falsity of this proposition about the cat and the lawn depends on something outside of the proposition. The proposition is true, not because of some truth property intrinsic to it, or because I like the idea, but because there is really a black and white cat sitting on my lawn. The truth of the proposition is therefore dependent upon its relationship to an external state of affairs.
Another thing Russell notices about truth is that it requires a mind to have beliefs which he calls the subject and things about which the mind has beliefs such as blackness and whiteness, a cat, and a lawn. These he calls objects. To make a truth claim, the subject organizes the objects into the correct order in his or her proposition. Therefore, if I say that there is a black and white cat sitting on my lawn, it is the cat that is sitting on the lawn, not the other way round. The lawn being referred to is mine. And it is the blackness and whiteness of the cat to which I am referring, even if I or the lawn am black and white. The subject, or the mind, therefore, does not create what is true or false; it creates beliefs which if they correspond with the relationship between the actually existing objects of those beliefs, they can be called true. This need for correspondence has given this theory of truth its name-the correspondence theory of truth.
Religious relativism, however, denies that religious beliefs can be, or ought to be, treated as objectively true for several reasons. First, because there are so many religious worldviews making competing claims that often appear unverifiable, it seems reasonable to deny that any claim is objectively true to the exclusion of the rest. Relativism is also seen to be an effective way of keeping the peace in religiously plural societies on the assumption that religious differences are a cause of conflict which sometimes can be very violent. Peace is maintained by treating religious beliefs as preferences. On this view, if N prefers to worship Christ rather than Allah, N is not asserting that Christ exists and Allah does not, which could be very offensive, but rather that N is simply saying what he likes to think, or feel is true. In other words, this is what is true for N, but no one else is obliged to accept what N thinks if what he thinks is just a personal preference. Religious relativism is also a handy psychological tool for protecting a person from considering other religious beliefs they do not feel comfortable with. Let us imagine that P has been told by a Christian that Jesus died for her sins. This notion of sin needing forgiveness by God deeply troubles P as she is ashamed of certain things she has done in the past. Her belief, however, is that the universe is God, and the universe accepts everyone regardless of what they have done, except for egregious people such as Stalin and Hitler. As she is no Stalin or Hitler, P feels no need therefore to ask for anyone's forgiveness. To P this sounds a lot nicer and neater than a bloody crucifixion and weird gothic stories of an empty tomb and a dead man returning to life. This is what works for her and she will stick with it.
The correspondence theory of truth, however, gives Christians philosophical warrant to treat their historical beliefs as potentially true and worthy of inspection. An historical proposition such as Jesus was crucified on Pontius Pilate's order is as much a truth claim as the proposition that there is a black and white cat sitting on my lawn. To propose that Pilate ordered Jesus' crucifixion is to propose that there is a relationship between the objects of Pilate, giving an order, Jesus and crucifixion in that Pilate gave the order and Jesus was crucified. There is a mind or subject also which is ordering these objects into that relationship. The difference is that the proposition that Jesus was crucified on Pontius Pilate's orders is a proposition about the past and is verifiable through the analysis of available historical sources. It is my contention that such historical sources exist such as the Gospels and extra-biblical sources such as Tacitus. The proposition that a black and white cat is sitting on my lawn is a proposition about the present and may be verified by my looking out of the window and by others doing the same thing (assuming our sensory and recognizing faculties are working properly and adequate light conditions).
As both propositions can be checked against reality, they can be shown to be either true or false. If Jesus was not crucified, then whatever people prefer to believe, he was not crucified. If it is the case that historical evidence supports the proposition that Jesus was crucified, then the propositions that he was not crucified, and he did not exist cannot be true regardless of how people feel.
Some might object to my criticism of religious pluralism and non-realist Christianity by using an atheist's work. But that would be to fall into the genetic fallacy, for the source of an argument has no bearing on its truth. Augustine of Hippo (354-430), one of the greatest of Christian thinkers, would agree. It was his view that truthful philosophical ideas could be divorced from their pagan origins and associations and used for the Gospel's propagation. In our case, we can separate Russell's lucidity about truth from his atheism.
Augustine also argued that truthful ideas are God's anyway and so by using them, we are reclaiming them for proper use. This is true of the correspondence theory of truth which can be derived from Scripture's myriad of propositions. I have already used the statement that Jesus was crucified on Pilate's order as an example of a proposition that claims to correspond to a relationship of objects. This is certainly how the Gospel writers used it when they described Jesus's death and that is how Christians ought to use it today. There are a multitude of other such propositions in Scripture. Take for example Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman as she comes to draw water. He tells her that she has had five husbands and that the man she is living with now is not her husband (John 4:17, 18). For Jesus' statement to be true, there would have to be a number of objects in a certain relationship. The objects are the states of being married to, no longer being married to, and living with another person in a sexual/romantic way, and a woman and six men. These are related in the following way: the woman has been married to five men and she is now living with the sixth. The woman affirms these uncomfortable truths by declaring Jesus to be a prophet (v. 19).
Ultimately therefore, the correspondence theory of truth is not Russell's idea, but a Christian one and indeed a religious one before it ever became a secular one. The unifying force of a healthy plural society is not religious relativism which seeks to paper over the stark differences between religions at the cost of logical integrity, but the underlying commonality of religions which is their desire truly to state objectively what is the case. Therefore, what has been taken to be the cause of interreligious conflict could well function as a culturally homogenous attribute that holds religions together in the face of what some have called a post-truth age. Moreover, rather than promoting religious sensibilities, relativism turns out to be a form of irreligionism for it collapses the distinctive features of each religion's god or gods into an illogical ecumenism. It is also a form of atheism as it denies theism's truth claim that there is one God. Ironically, it is an atheist's elucidation of objective truth that is one of the best weapons against it.

Exclusive: First Plot Details, Potential Co-Star Revealed for Jennifer Lawrence's Next Movie
by Jeff Sneider April 19, 2019
Earlier this week, Collider reported that Jennifer Lawrence is set to star in an untitled new film from A24 and acclaimed theater director Lila Neugebauer, who will make her feature directing debut with the project. While plot details were initially being kept under wraps, Collider has now learned what the film is about, and it should catapult the Oscar-winning actress back into the awards conversation.
Written by first-time screenwriter Elizabeth Sanders, the new film will find Lawrence playing a U.S. solider who suffers a traumatic brain injury in Afghanistan and struggles to recover back home. Oscar winner Scott Rudin and Eli Bush are producing alongside Lawrence and her Excellent Cadaver partner Justine Polsky. Production is expected to start in June in New Orleans.

Meanwhile, Collider has also learned that Atlanta star Brian Tyree Henry holds the offer to star opposite Lawrence. Henry doesn't have a deal yet, and discussions are still super early, but he's the choice for what I understand to be the male lead. Now, I haven't read the script and don't have the character breakdown, but if I had to wager a guess based on my knowledge of how movies work, I'd assume he's either playing Lawrence's commanding officer, or her therapist of some kind back at home. It all depends on how much time the film spends with Lawrence's character on the battlefield.
Lawrence has been intrigued by the idea of doing a war-themed picture for some time. At one point, she was attached to play photojournalist Lynsey Addario, who risked her life by heading into war zones, in Steven Spielberg's adaptation of her memoir It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life of Love and War. It's interesting that she chose this project, from a first-time filmmaker, no less, as her first film following a self-imposed sabbatical that has lasted roughly a year-and-a-half.
Lawrence last starred in the underrated thriller Red Sparrow, and she'll soon be seen one last time as Mystique in this summer's Dark Phoenix. As a producer, she has been working with Adam McKay to develop the Elizabeth Holmes movie Bad Blood, which would see her play the controversial Theranos founder.
Image via 20th Century Fox
Henry is a two-time Emmy nominee who has been super busy of late, having wrapped five studio movies — Legendary's blockbuster Godzilla vs. Kong, Todd Phillips' DC movie Joker, New Line's Melissa McCarthy comedy Superintelligence, Joe Wright's thriller The Woman in the Window and a starring role in MGM's Child's Play reboot. He has also wrapped the indie drama The Outside Story, and he's attached to star in They Cloned Tyrone for MACRO. It's unclear when Atlanta's third season heads back into production, but this A24 movie isn't expected to be a terribly long shoot, so I don't expect scheduling to be a problem. It'll all come down to whether Henry is impressed by what's on the page. He has done a great job picking projects of late, from Widows to If Beale Street Could Talk, so here's hoping that Sanders' script offers him a juicy role he can sink his teeth into.
Neugebauer made her Broadway debut last year directing the revival of Kenneth Lonergan's The Waverly Gallery starring Elaine May and Lucas Hedges, and she also helmed an episode of the HBO anthology series Room 104.
Henry is represented by CAA and JWS Entertainment, which did not respond to a request for comment. A representative for A24 declined to comment.

Javian Hawkins named ACC Running Back of the Week
By Mike Rutherford@CardChronicle Oct 26, 2020, 2:14pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Javian Hawkins named ACC Running Back of the Week
Photo by Justin Berl/Getty Images
Guy's good.
Here's the release from U of L:
University of Louisville running back Javian Hawkins was named the ACC Running Back of the Week following his performance on Saturday against Florida State.
Hawkins rushed 16 times for 174 yards and a career high three touchdowns in the 48-16 win over the Seminoles, snapping a four-game losing streak for the Cardinals.

<Interview with N.Koreans> "Is it any better in Kim Jong-un Era? Not at all! Preferential treatment is given to the Party officials by sacrificing the needs of the residents in the regions outside of Pyongyang!"
2015/December/13
Edit by KANG Ji-won, defector reporter, Rimjin-gang
<This article first appeared in the Korean and Japanese edition of Rimjin-gang on October 2015>
The North Korean media are day by day propagating the achievements of Kim Il-sung/Kim Jong-il in order to highlight Kim Jong-un's greatness and induce the loyalty from the people before the coming of the 70th anniversary of the foundation of the Korean Workers' Party this October 10.
However, how do the North Korean people evaluate the three year-nine months' period of inauguration of the Kim Jong-un's regime?
This is the interview is made by defector reporter Kang Ji-won with a North Korean laborer in his thirties living in North Hamkyung Province.
Kang: Is there anything improved or anything new since the inauguration of Kim Jong-un's regime?
Laborer: Nothing changed. Frankly speaking, many people had high expectation when a new regime started. Some people thought that they would be better off since there would be no more factionalists after the execution of Jang Song-thaek.
However, no matter how it worked in Pyongyang, there is no feel of the effect here. It seems they made Jang the scapegoat for their mismanagement of policies as Kim Jong-il executed Park Nam-gi for the failed currency reform.
(*Some North Koreans seem to believe that the deteriorated economy was due to the harmful behavior of the faction led by Jang Song-thaek as the North Korean authority propagate.)
(*It is known that Park Nam-gi, the Director of the Planning & Finance Department, was executed after he failed the currency reform in 2009.)

Kang: Pyongyang has been propagating that they have done a lot things for the people such as housing construction, ski resort construction, and building an airport in Pyongyang. What do you think about that?
Laborer: What is the benefit from the construction? We, the regional folks, have not got any benefits from whatever they have built in Pyongyang.
Let me tell you one example. One person says that it is impossible to approach even the entrance door of the newly built water park without U$. Exceptionally they provide entrance tickets for free on holidays, otherwise they have to pay in U$.
It is irrelevant to the people who live hand to mouth. We have not even been to the airport which is needed for the people going abroad. We do not dare to dream to get on an air plane before dying.
While they are saying they would construct residential housings, where we do not know, and who would live there in Pyongyang, there is a concern that the tax burden would be made through coercive collecting scrap metals and coppers.
(*It would be impossible for the ordinary North Koreans to board a plane for personal business in such a country that restricts the domestic trip of its people.)
The slogans "Sun of the military first Korea, Long live the General Kim Jong-un!," "Long live the great military first policy!" are hung at the entrance of a government office. (South Pyongan Province: March 2013. Taken by our Team "Mindeulle") ASIAPRESS
Kang: Eventually, have the people lost hope toward the new regime?
Laborer: Yes. The people do not have any expectation from the government as they have been deceived over and over.
There is nobody who believes the propaganda saying that the economy is getting better, because they think that they, by their own judgment, have to do business or illegal activities in order not to be starved.
Any new economic measure would not be any help for the people in the region. They think that a war should start regardless of whoever wins, so that it would be better off for them.
In short, it seems it is getting better for the government officials and the Pyongyang residents. Who would like this regime showing the rich is getting richer and the poor is getting poorer just like it was before?
Therefore, people do not have any other thoughts but making more money even through illegal businesses. It would be misjudgment to think that the future is better than the past. Rather the future must be much severer.
It would be natural that the people would not have any interests in the Party's instructions like "this is the Party's policy," or "this is the General (Kim Jong-un)'s policy".

The team also could move Wonnum, who as a freshman took the right tackle spot from Blake Camper during the season. Muschamp's staff has twice moved former right tackles to left with Mason Zandi and Malik Young, and neither has the talent of Wonnum.
Daley in his two seasons did a credible job as a blindside pass protector for quarterback Jake Bentley. The Gamecocks were 117th in how often its quarterbacks were sacked against FBS opponents the year before he arrived. That jumped to 80th and then 23rd.
If Hutcherson ends up staying inside, Muschamp mentioned a few younger players who could end up in the mix on the outside.
Iyama was at tackle last August, but the 6-foot-5, 310 pounder didn't get in any games. Carty was a developmental player when he arrived, and at 6-foot-7, played some guard and didn't see the field.
The Gamecocks will be replacing a trio of tackles in Daley, Camper and Young, plus longtime starting guard Zack Bailey.
If Hucherson moves outside, it creates another opening, but the Gamecocks appear to be in somewhat good shape inside.
Center Donell Staley said he expects to move back to guard to make room for redshirt freshman Hank Manos. Freshman guard Jovaughn Gwyn seemed to be doing well before a knee injury ended his season after again, and third-year lineman Jordan Rhodes got work as the team's sixth offensive lineman in run-heavy packages.
The Gamecocks open spring practice on Feb. 27. The spring game is April 6.

'Section 138 NI Act proceeding a "civil sheep" in a "criminal wolf's" clothing'; quasi criminal proceedings against corporate debtor covered under Section 14(1)(a) IBC : SC
"A Section 138 proceeding can be said to be a "civil sheep" in a "criminal wolf's" clothing, as it is the interest of the victim that is sought to be protected, the larger interest of the State being subsumed in the victim alone moving a court in cheque bouncing cases."
Published on March 2, 2021 March 5, 2021 By Prachi Bhardwaj
Supreme Court: The 3-judge bench of RF Nariman*, Navin Sinha and KM Joseph, JJ has, analysing various provisions under the Negotiable Instruments Act, the Court concluded that the proceedings under Section 138 are "quasi-criminal" in nature.
The Court held that
"a Section 138/141 proceeding against a corporate debtor is covered by Section 14(1)(a) of the IBC."
In a 120-pages long verdict, the Supreme Court tackled the following issues to reach at the aforementioned conclusion:
OBJECT AND INTERPRETATION OF SECTION 14 OF THE IBC
The expression "institution of suits or continuation of pending suits" is to be read as one category, and the disjunctive "or" before the word "proceedings" would make it clear that proceedings against the corporate debtor would be a separate category.
"What throws light on the width of the expression "proceedings" is the expression "any judgment, decree or order" and "any court of law, tribunal, arbitration panel or other authority". Since criminal proceedings under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 are conducted before the courts mentioned in Section 6, CrPC, it is clear that a Section 138 proceeding being conducted before a Magistrate would certainly be a proceeding in a court of law in respect of a transaction which relates to a debt owed by the corporate debtor."
A quasi-criminal proceeding which would result in the assets of the corporate debtor being depleted as a result of having to pay compensation which can amount to twice the amount of the cheque that has bounced would directly impact the corporate insolvency resolution process in the same manner as the institution, continuation, or execution of a decree in such suit in a civil court for the amount of debt or other liability.
"Judged from the point of view of this objective, it is impossible to discern any difference between the impact of a suit and a Section 138 proceeding, insofar as the corporate debtor is concerned, on its getting the necessary breathing space to get back on its feet during the corporate insolvency resolution process."
Hence, the width of the expression "proceedings" cannot be cut down so as to make such proceedings analogous to civil suits.
THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN SECTION 14 AND SECTION 32A OF THE IBC
"A section which has been introduced by an amendment into an Act with its focus on cesser of liability for offences committed by the corporate debtor prior to the commencement of the corporate insolvency resolution process cannot be so construed so as to limit, by a sidewind as it were, the moratorium provision contained in Section 14, with which it is not at all concerned."
If the expression "prosecution" in the first proviso of Section 32A(1) refers to criminal proceedings properly so-called either through the medium of a First Information Report or complaint filed by an investigating authority or complaint and not to quasi-criminal proceedings that are instituted under Sections 138/141 of the Negotiable Instruments Act against the corporate debtor, the object of Section 14(1) of the IBC gets subserved, as does the object of Section 32A, which does away with criminal prosecutions in all cases against the corporate debtor, thus absolving the corporate debtor from the same after a new management comes in.
NATURE OF PROCEEDINGS UNDER CHAPTER XVII OF THE NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENTS ACT
"Section 138 contains within it the ingredients of the offence made out. The deeming provision is important in that the legislature is cognizant of the fact that what is otherwise a civil liability is now also deemed to be an offence, since this liability is made punishable by law."
It is important to note that the transaction spoken of is a commercial transaction between two parties which involves payment of money for a debt or liability. The explanation to Section 138 makes it clear that such debt or other liability means a legally enforceable debt or other liability. Thus, a debt or other liability barred by the law of limitation would be outside the scope of Section 138. This, coupled with fine that may extend to twice the amount of the cheque that is payable as compensation to the aggrieved party to cover both the amount of the cheque and the interest and costs thereupon, would show that it is really a hybrid provision to enforce payment under a bounced cheque if it is otherwise enforceable in civil law.
Further, as the proviso gives an opportunity to the drawer of the cheque, stating that the drawer must fail to make payment of the amount within 15 days of the receipt of a notice, it becomes clear that the real object of the provision is not to penalise the wrongdoer for an offence that is already made out, but to compensate the victim.
Under Section 139, a presumption is raised that the holder of a cheque received the cheque for the discharge, in whole or in part, of any debt or other liability. To rebut this presumption, facts must be adduced which, on a preponderance of probability (not beyond reasonable doubt as in the case of criminal offences), must then be proved.
Section 140 states that it shall not be a defence in a prosecution for an offence under Section 138 that the drawer had no reason to believe when he issued the cheque that the cheque may be dishonoured on presentment for the reasons stated in that Section, thus making it clear that strict liability will attach, mens rea being no ingredient of the offence.
Section 141 makes Directors and other persons statutorily liable, provided the ingredients of the section are met. Interestingly, for the purposes of this Section, explanation (a) defines "company" as meaning any body corporate and includes a firm or other association of individuals.
A cursory reading of Section 142 makes clear that the procedure under the CrPC has been departed from. First and foremost, no court is to take cognizance of an offence punishable under Section 138 except on a complaint made in writing by the payee or the holder in due course of the cheque – the victim. Further, the language of Section 142(1) (b) would again show the hybrid nature of these provisions inasmuch as a complaint must be made within one month of the date on which the "cause of action" under clause (c) of the proviso to Section 138 arises.
"The expression "cause of action" is a foreigner to criminal jurisprudence, and would apply only in civil cases to recover money. Chapter XIII of the CrPC, consisting of Sections 177 to 189, is a chapter dealing with the jurisdiction of the criminal courts in inquiries and trials. When the jurisdiction of a criminal court is spoken of by these Sections, the expression "cause of action" is conspicuous by its absence."
Under Section 143, it is lawful for a Magistrate to pass a sentence of imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year and a fine exceeding INR 5,000/- summarily. Hence,
"… the payment of compensation is at the heart of the provision in that a fine exceeding INR 5000/-, the sky being the limit, can be imposed by way of a summary trial which, after application of Section 357 of the CrPC, results in compensating the victim up to twice the amount of the bounced cheque."
Under Section 144, the mode of service of summons is done as in civil cases, eschewing the mode contained in Sections 62 to 64 of the CrPC. Likewise, under Section 145, evidence is to be given by the complainant on affidavit, as it is given in civil proceedings, notwithstanding anything contained in the CrPC. Most importantly, by Section 147, offences under this Act are compoundable without any intervention of the court, as is required by Section 320(2) of the CrPC.
"The gravamen of a proceeding under Section 138, though couched in language making the act complained of an offence, is really in order to get back through a summary proceeding, the amount contained in the dishonoured cheque together with interest and costs, expeditiously and cheaply."
The Court, hence, concluded that a quasi-criminal proceeding that is contained in Chapter XVII of the Negotiable Instruments Act would, given the object and context of Section 14 of the IBC, amount to a "proceeding" within the meaning of Section 14(1)(a), the moratorium therefore attaching to such proceeding.

The solar industry has partnered with the Clean Energy Regulator to release a co-designed Solar Panel Validation Initiative to ensure genuine solar panels are installed in Australia.
The validation of solar panels is done through smart phone apps, which scan serial numbers to instantaneously confirm the panels are genuine. This provides consumers with evidence they are getting a genuine brand that meets Australian standards and comes with the stated warranty.
Executive General Manager for the Clean Energy Regulator, Mark Williamson, said solar panel validation is a great example of government and industry partnering to solve a shared problem.
"We found some solar panels were not meeting the requirements for Commonwealth incentives under the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme," Mr Williamson said.
"We found an innovative solution that aligned with consumer, industry and government interests.
The Initiative has the support of industry and consumer bodies including the Clean Energy Council, Smart Energy Council and Choice.
"This is a fantastic example of a partnership between the industry and government to make sure that consumers are protected. It is also about protecting the majority of legitimate businesses from those who are trying to undermine the quality of the system for their own gain," Kane Thornton, Chief Executive of the Clean Energy Council, said.
"This Solar Panel Validation Initiative is where we can lift the bar and improve the integrity of the solar industry, ultimately delivering better outcomes for consumers," said John Grimes, Chief Executive Officer of the Smart Energy Council.
These manufacturers cover more than half the six million solar panels expected to be installed on Australian rooftops this year.
"Manufacturers participating in solar panel validation have stepped up as leaders to protect their industry, brand and reputation," Mr Williamson said.
"The Clean Energy Regulator and peak industry bodies are expecting a big uptake across all parts of the supply chain in the solar industry.

In the Journals: Contagious Diseases in the U.S. from 1888 to the Present
Published on Dec 28, 2013 in Vaccine Update for Healthcare Providers
In November 2013, Donald Burke and coworkers at the University of Pittsburgh published an interesting study (van Panhuis WG, Grefenstette J, Jung SY, et al. Contagious Diseases in the United States from 1888 to the Present. N Engl J of Med. 2013 Nov 28;369(22):2152-8). The authors wanted to determine the impact of vaccines in the United States. Toward this end, they obtained weekly surveillance data published in the journal Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report between 1888 and 2011. They used the year that a vaccine was licensed as the cutoff year to separate the pre-vaccine from post-vaccine period, realizing that uptake would be variable. They then multiplied the median weekly incidence rates from pre-vaccine years with population estimates for the post-vaccine years.
The authors estimated that about 103 million cases of disease had been prevented by vaccination since 1924. Of these hypothetical cases, about 26 million cases were prevented in the past decade. The disease with the most cases prevented was diphtheria (40 million cases), owing primarily to the fact that diphtheria had the second highest pre-vaccination incidence rate (237 cases per 100,000 population year) and the longest standing vaccine program. Second was measles (35 million cases), which had the highest disease incidence (318 cases per 100,000 population year).
Of interest, the disease with the most rapid decrease in the number of reported cases was measles (22 percent decrease each year post-vaccination). Rubella and polio were next, with annual decreases of 16 percent and 15 percent, respectively.
Perhaps more than any other, this study shows the incredible power and impact of America's vaccine program.

Q: Transfering ps3 psn account to ps4 I know we can have same psn account on ps3 and ps4 but after transfering to ps4 can I still play my ps3 games online?

A: You cannot play PS3 games on a PS4. There is probably an exception for digital purchases which have PS3 and PS4 variants, but most games do not have this.
You can still play those games online on your PS3. Having a PS4 does not invalidate the use of your PS3.

A: It's probably best to not think about it as "transferring" your account, and see it as simply signing into your PSN account on your PS4. You can still log into your PS3 with it, and even a Vita if you have one.
The question then comes down to "can I play my PS3 games on my PS4".
The answer is no, as the PS4 is not backwards compatible.
But this doesn't mean you can't just simply sign in on your PS3 and play your games there.
