Jupiter: Mystery of the Solar System
2020 Science HD
Jupiter is a turbulent world of monster magnetic fields and endless mega storms. Generations of astronomers have attempted to solve the mysteries of Jupiter, the most fierce and extreme planet in the Solar System. And now, NASA's Juno probe is revealing new evidence that could unlock the secrets of why this planet is so strange. With Juno, we're able to see Jupiter from the inside out and reach deep into its core to reveal how it grew.

The Electric Boy
2014 Science
This episode provides an overview of the nature of electromagnetism, as discovered through the work of Michael Faraday. Tyson explains how the idea of another force of nature, similar to gravitational forces, had been postulated by Isaac Newton before. Tyson continues on Faraday, coming from poor beginnings, would end up becoming interested in studying electricity after reading books and seeing lectures by Humphry Davy at the Royal Institution. Davy would hire Faraday after seeing extensive notes he had taken to act as his secretary and lab assistant. After Davy and chemist William Hyde Wollaston unsuccessfully tried to build on Hans Christian Ørsted's discovery of the electromagnetic phenomena to harness the ability to create motion from electricity, Faraday was able to create his own device to create the first electric motor by applying electricity aligned along a magnet. Davy, bitter over Faraday's breakthrough, put Faraday on the task of improving the quality of high-quality optical glass, preventing Faraday from continuing his research. Faraday, undeterred, continued to work in the Royal Institution, and created the Christmas Lectures designed to teach science to children. Following Davy's death, Faraday returned to full time efforts studying electromagnetism, creating the first electrical generator by inserting a magnet in a coil of wires. Tyson continues to note that despite losing some of his mental capacity, Faraday concluded that electricity and magnetism were connected by unseen fields, and postulated that light may also be tied to these forces. Using a sample of the optical glass that Davy had him make, Faraday discovered that an applied magnetic field could affect the polarization of light passing through the glass sample (a dielectric material), leading to what is called the Faraday effect and connecting these three forces. Faraday postulated that these fields existed across the planet, which would later by called Earth's magnetic field generated by the rotating molten iron inner core, as well as the phenomena that caused the planets to rotate around the sun. Faraday's work was initially rejected by the scientific community due to his lack of mathematical support, but James Clerk Maxwell would later come to rework Faraday's theories into the Maxwell's equations that validated Faraday's theories. Their combined efforts created the basis of science that drives the principles of modern communications today.

Bermuda Triangle of Space
There is a region of space that is dangerous for reasons we don't yet understand completely. We see an increased flux of energetic particles in this area and higher-than-usual levels of radiation. It's called the South Atlantic Anomaly. Some scientists now think the long-term effects of this danger zone may be far wider reaching than anyone ever expected, and it may even have implications for the future of humanity in space and on Earth.

The world of search engine optimization (SEO) is always changing but no matter what, when you create a great user experience for your users you will be rewarded by Google with better rankings, by visitors with more conversions and by clients with referrals and repeat business. This got me to thinking .... what if "creating a great user experience" is really - actually - the key to increasing your own happiness?
Thanksgiving is a great time to convey gratitude to your website viewers and align your business and brand with the positive connotations of hearth and home. Seasonal graphics freshen up your site and offer a great opportunity to run seasonal promotions. Holiday promos work by creating memorable, sharable moments for your audience.
A few days ago I met with a new client in need of help updating her logo and business cards. Although most of what I do is web work, I've been doing graphic design since 1997 and I still really enjoy it. Print work can be wonderfully easy compared to coding (although not always!) and it keeps my design chops in shape. So, I happily began gathering ideas.
She explained that her business model was changing due to some advance training she was completing. This would also change her services and, really, the very things that make her business unique. I began to realize that what she really needed was a mini-workshop on her branding and marketing. We needed to look at her new offerings and clientele in order to update her logo and create her new cards in an effective, audience-focused way.
With this in mind, today I created a new design service I'm calling the Business Cards package. Unlike simply ordering new cards, it includes a mini-branding consultation, fresh layouts, revisions, printing, delivery and even the master files. It is so, SO common to meet people who hate their business cards because they're boring, don't match their other materials, or just no longer represent who they are. Likewise, pretty much every small business owner I meet is interested in any help with marketing. While I still do simple updates and re-orders too, I'm really excited about approaching business card makeovers (and new cards too) in this more integrative manner.
I've vaguely wondered why October is Breast Cancer Awareness month but I think it's simply because breast cancer is scary. In 2009 I discovered a lump and subsequently had 4 lumpectomies and did 5 years on Tamoxifen. I am grateful to the high-res imaging at Moore's Cancer Center which found the issue and the specialists who aggressively treated it. I'll never forget my first needle biopsy with Dr. Blickenstaff - a pioneer in that technique - who offered both professionalism and a hilariously dry sense of humor. While it was scary, I feel blessed to have had the access and ability to fulfill the recommended treatment regimen - which came directly out of advances that have been made in breast cancer research. I often think of my dear friend Debi who's life was ended far too soon because of breast cancer, along with the many women I know who have fought it. If there's any way that you can financially support research or patient care programs, a great organization to donate to is the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

Panoramic Views of UNESCO World Heritage Sites
Panoramic View of Mount Huang
In May, 2008, Easypano photographers climbed the peaks in Mount Huang, and took the following panoramic pictures of the Mount Huang (click to see full screen panoramic view). Mount Huang is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of China's major tourist destinations, famous for the Huangshan Pine trees, Sea of Clouds and peculiarly-shaped rocks.
The first one is taken on one of the peaks which is comprised of bare rocks. The second one is taken near a strangely jutting rock, with beautiful scenery of the valley and mountain range.
Four fisheye photos were taken on each panoramic shot, with Nikon D200, plus Sigma 8mm fisheye lens, pano head and tripod, and then stitched with photo stitching software Panoweaver to 360 degree spherical panoramic pictures and exported to full screen QTVR.
Panoramic view of Hong Village
Here is a group of panoramic views from Hong village, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anhui province in eastern China. The historical buildings of Hong village have been regarded as typical examples of Anhui-style architecture.
Click on each panoramic image to view full screen QTVR.
The left panoramic image is taken on the entrance bridge to the village. The whole village is built in the shape of an ox. The pond in the right panoramic image resembles the stomach of the ox.
The following are panoramic views of buildings in Hong village which were built in Ming and Qing dynasties. Some of the residential houses have existed for more than 500 years. The bricks, stones and wood carvings boast great historical and cultural values.
These panoramic pictures are also taken with Nikon D200 and Sigma 8mm F3.5 EX DG Fisheye lens. Check compatible equipment list for Panoweaver. View 360 Flash panorama gallery.

TIFT MERRITT/Stitch Of The World: An EXCLUSIVE Q&A!
STEPHEN SPAZ SCHNEE: STITCH OF THE WORLD is just about to be released. How are you feeling about the album and the journey you took to make it?
TIFT MERRITT: I'm feeling really proud of this writing, these performances. I feel really, really lucky to have worked with this cast of characters. Marc Ribot is my favorite musician and one of my favorite human beings. He's plugged into the sun. And I am forever grateful to Sam Beam for his input and generosity. To be in conversation with him about songwriting gave me a new eye on lyrics, on what to look for in third verses, on countermelody. But honestly, I don't know that I ever truly have perspective on my work. I just have the sense of having had a creative experience that hopefully opened me more and will inform my next creative experience. I think that is what it is all about.
SPAZ: The album is just as intimate and warm as your past releases. The production really brings the songs to life. Is there a particular approach you take to recording? Is it a natural process to get the sounds and feel you are looking for?
TIFT: Thank you. That is what I am always after: warmth and intimacy. As well as energy! The energy of this record is much in part to the speed at which we recorded! Four days. As well, Jay Bellerose's drumming is a very strong engine and gives much clarity and fire. I'm always interested in singing where sincerity and raw energy meet. Sometimes intimacy can drain the power out of things on behalf of closeness or delicacy. It's a balance that is not always easy to strike.
DAVE RAYBURN: "Dusty Old Man" reunites you with more of the inventive guitar work of Marc Ribot, who also appeared on 2012's TRAVELING ALONE. When did you first work with Marc, and what do you feel he brings to the table with your songs?
TIFT: Marc is absolutely plugged into the sun. He's the finest of the fine. As a lead player, he is so attuned to rhythm, to pushing the song along. He is minimalist and high energy at the same time, and never runs out of ideas. Marc is one of the smartest people I know as well as one of the kindest. If I could work with one musician from now until the end of time, it would be Marc. There is no one like him.
SPAZ: "Love Soldiers On" is quite beautiful. The haunting guitar work harkens back to early Rock 'n' Roll while the song itself is timeless. Is it difficult to create something that reaches back to your roots yet also looks forward?
TIFT: Thank you. That is an awfully nice thing to say. I think, at the end of the day, creating something that pushes forward but also honors a tradition is really the sweet spot for me, the place I'm reaching for. I always want to bring something new from inside myself, push forward to something new sonically and lyrically. But I'm not operating in a vacuum or exploding a form. I love abstract painting for the way so much can be gathered in just a few strokes. Maybe it is like that. You take everything you've learned and gather yourself and make a mark. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't.
SPAZ: STITCH OF THE WORLD is your sixth album. Are you still learning how to get exactly what you want while working in the studio, or do you find yourself discovering new ways of expressing yourself musically with each new release?
TIFT: I am much more comfortable in the studio now than when I began. It is a kind of performance that I really enjoy, but it is tricky to create the immediacy of live performance without being present at the performance. I hope I'll always be learning and thinking about how to make the next album. That's the good nature of it. I always feel at the beginning of what I can do, whatever I have just learned being the door to the next place. I really like making records live off the floor rather than overdubbing lots and lots. I really love summoning a performance on the spot, finding the right parts, keeping some space and air.
DAVE: How did your working relationship with Iron & Wine's Sam Beam come about and how instrumental was he in fashioning new material with you?
TIFT: I am such a fan of Sam as a musician and as a person. I will always be cheering for him. He was an angel in this process — he gave me confidence to jump. I sent him all my songs and I was very scared of my writing at that point. I didn't know whether any of it was good. When he said, I love these and I can tell you have been working really hard, it was like the sunshine came out! He encouraged me so kindly and he taught me a lot about what third verses can do, about what chord structures can do and about how counter melodies can bring things to life. PLUS he lent his beautiful, warm voice. I adore him and his family.
DAVE: How heavily did recent transitions in your personal landscape weigh on the new album's content?
TIFT: Writing in and of itself is such a completely personal experience. Observation — seeing something in a new way — is a big part of writing, but without an emotional connection, it is just clinical and cold. Writing is, I think, one of the most intimate things I do — I spend time, presence and energy with something, I give as much of myself to it as I can. So whatever I am writing about is personal.
My personal landscape and questions about my life will always permeate my work, of course. And yes, this was a very difficult album to write because I didn't have perspective on myself or what was happening to me. I think it must take many years to have perspective on a divorce, or any big changes. I was scared as hell. I was very sad. But I had to write and press on. A finished song stands on its own, an experience in and of itself, and gains a distance from whatever seed began it. I always hope my songs feel intimate and real and honest, but they are not journal entries.
I really love moving in and out of intensity in the studio, summoning a performance live, and then putting it down again and having a beer and a laugh. It's like you have set something free after you perform it right. Maybe that is why it can sound relaxed.
SPAZ: Judging by the way radio approaches Country Music today, a lot of the more traditional, roots-based Country artists are now being relegated to the Americana genre. Does it bother you that people have to even categorize what you do? On one hand, it is helpful for fans of a certain genre, but on the other hand, real artists don't want their art to be put in a box…
TIFT: I think this is probably an age old question that takes new forms every decade, every time a record store has to be rearranged. I don't think about it that much and I never have. I think about how I organize music in my own mind or in my own record collection. It's good to have a musical family tree, a way of relating things, a way of finding things, a path into discovering other music. But that is more about musicology than it is about marketing. I'm really proud to be a part of a tradition of songwriters and storytellers.
DAVE: It would be hard to escape the comparisons of your vocal style to that of Emmylou Harris (who coincidentally holds high accolades for you); however, there are other shades of influence in the mix that could be attributed to an array of lesser known singers. Are there any unsung heroes that you would acknowledge as having indirectly helped in shaping your style over the years?
TIFT: I would have to say that Kitty Wells is someone who really influenced me in the beginning, the way she really sings the heart of every pitch. I spun her records over and over. And Jean Shepherd. There are so many amazing vocalists — Aretha, Linda Ronstadt. Dusty Springfield's intimacy. Maria McKee. What a sensational voice. I recently was talking to someone about Rod Stewart in The Faces and that's some badass singing too.
DAVE: What was your reaction to the news that Don Henley chose your song "Bramble Rose," from your recently-reissued debut album, as the lead-off track on his recent CASS COUNTY album?
TIFT: I really couldn't believe it. I was hungover when I got an email from him and I just kept rereading it, especially when I got to the part about Mick Jagger, thinking it couldn't be real. I was on tour with Andrew Bird and I danced all around the bus when I first heard. It was a very lovely thing for me, a tremendous gift from him, and I am deeply grateful.
SPAZ: What's next for Tift Merritt?
TIFT: Well, I'm gonna go tour this album and I am going to try to be a really good mom to my little daughter. I've got a stack of books by my bed I'd like to read if I can find a minute. The rest I can't figure just yet. I'll keep you posted.
SPAZ: What are you currently spinning on your CD and record players?
TIFT: A friend just sent me the complete John Coltrane Atlantic years. That's been on the record player. I played my daughter a bunch of Joni Mitchell and Paul Simon recently. It is really a blast to listen to records with her and think, "This is the first time you've heard Paul Simon," for example. I really love Hiss Golden Messenger's new album and Angel Olsen's new album. I am about to have a Leonard Cohen marathon too.
Thanks to Tift Merritt

Republican Karen Handel wins hotly contested U.S. House race in suburban Atlanta
Handel turns back challenge from Democrat Jon Ossoff in most expensive House race ever
ROSWELL, Georgia (CFP) — Republican Karen Handel has won a runoff for Georgia's 6th District U.S. House seat, dashing Democratic hopes of embarrassing President Trump by snatching away a seat that has been safely in GOP hands for decades.
U.S. Rep.-Elect Karen Handel, R-Georgia
Handel, a former Georgia secretary of state and Fulton County Commission chair, won 52.1 percent in the June 20 vote, defeating Jon Ossoff, a 30-year-old filmmaker and former congressional aide making his first bid for political office, who took 47.9 percent.
She will be the first Republican woman ever to represent Georgia in Congress.
Speaking to supporters at a hotel in Dunwoody, Handel said she was "extraordinarily humbled and honored at the tremendous privilege and high responsibility that you and the people across the 6th District have given to me to represent you."
She also said Ossoff's supporters should "know that my commitments, they extend to you."
"We may have some different beliefs, but we are part of one community," she said. "My pledge is to be part of the solution to focus on governing, to put my experience to work to help solve the very serious issues we're facing in this country."
Handel also thanked Trump, who tweeted on her behalf throughout the race, and Vice President Mike Pence, who traveled to Georgia to campaign with her as national Republicans scrambled to avoid what would have been an embarrassing defeat.
Jon Ossoff, D, Georgia 6th District candidate
Ossoff, speaking to his supporters at a hotel in Sandy Springs hotel after the race had been called for Handel, saluted his volunteers, "more than 12,000 of you who, as darkness has crept across this planet, have provided a beacon of hope for people here in Georgia, for people across the country and for people around the world."
"At a time when politics have been dominated by fear and hatred and scapegoating and division, this community stood up … and showed the world that in places where nobody thought it was even possible to fight, we could fight. We showed them what courage and kindness and humility are capable of," he said.
Handel's win, along with a win by Republican Ralph Norman in the South Carolina 5th District special election on the same night, means Republicans have successfully defended all four of the House seats that became vacant when their occupants were appointed to positions in the Trump administration. The other elections were in Kansas and Montana.
However, in three of those four races, the Republican winners polled substantially worse than did Trump in November. The only exception was Handel, who ran 4 points ahead of Trump.
Ossoff had come in first in the April primary but fell short of the majority needed to win outright. Handel, who edged out a flock of Republican candidates to make the runoff, was able to consolidate GOP support and win the runoff, despite being outspent by 4-to-1 by Ossoff, who tapped anti-Trump sentiment to raise more than $23 million.
In all, total spending by candidates and outside groups in the 6th District race topped $50 million, making it the most expensive House race in U.S. history. But despite all that spending, Ossoff's vote share was less than a point higher than what Hillary Clinton pulled down in the district in November.
The 6th District arcs across Atlanta's northern suburbs, taking in parts of Cobb, Fulton and DeKalb counties. Since its present configuration was drawn after the 1990 census, the seat has been held by Newt Gingrich, who went on to become speaker of the House; Johnny Isakson, who went on to the U.S. Senate; and Tom Price, who gave it up when Trump picked him to head the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
While Price had won the seat easily in 2016, Trump only carried it by a scant 1.5 percent, on his way to becoming the first Republican to lose Cobb County since 1976. Trump also lost the March 2016 Republican primary in the district to U.S. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.
For Handel, 55, winning the 6th District seat revives her once-promising political career, which was battered by back-to-back losses to Governor Nathan Deal in a GOP runoff in 2010 and a Republican primary for the U.S. Senate in 2014.
She served as secretary of state from 2007 to 2011 and as chair of the Fulton County Commission from 2003 to 2006.
In her victory speech, Handel thanked House Majority Whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana for his advice during her campaign, and she asked her supporters to "lift up" Scalise and three others wounded June 14 while practicing for a charity baseball game by a shooter with apparent political motives.
"We need to also lift up this nation so that we can find a more civil way to deal with our disagreements because in these United States of America, no one should ever feel their life threatened over their political beliefs," she said.

How green, flexible infrastructure can make cities resilient
NatureStructure looks at how engineers and architects can work with, rather than against, the natural world.
By Patrick Sisson May 11, 2018, 5:56pm EDT
Culture Urbaine is a CO2-consuming, energy and future food producing bridge in Geneva, Switzerland.
Olivier Arandel / The Cloud Collective
Examine any piece of urban infrastructure—a street, sidewalk, park bench, or dock—and evidence of a losing battle is quickly evident. Nature has always been a relentless destroyer of anything wooden, stone, or steel.
"For several hundred years, we've been fighting nature," says Scott Burnham, a writer and urban strategist. "With increasing numbers of droughts, sea levels rising, and rain falls increasing, it's clear fighting nature doesn't work. Let's try working with it, instead."
That philosophy is at the core of NatureStructure, an exhibition curated by Burnham that opens May 17 at the Boston Society of Architects' exhibition space. The exploration of new engineering and infrastructure projects with a more organic, natural bent suggests that urban planners, architects, and designers are beginning to embrace a different narrative, one of collaboration instead of suppression.
"The history of the built environment and the city is roughly defined as man's battle against nature," says Burnham. "It's about conquering, to gird or guard ourselves against nature. Nature Structures is advocating a complete reversal, and using nature as a tool, as an infrastructure tool, to use it to clean water, mitigate the heat island effect, and mitigate the damage that we've done."
Burnham says that Norwegian engineers and designers have a phrase for this type of naturalistic landscape and infrastructure design: "playing on the same team as nature."
The exhibit features more than 30 projects from around the globe that demonstrate the potential of collaborating with, instead of overpowering, nature, such as a bridge from Geneva, Switzerland that contains tubes of algae to absorb and consume carbon emissions from the traffic below.
POP-UP by Third Nature is a parking garage concept that rises to accommodate excess water.
Third Nature
The designs suggest a move toward infrastructure that's both organic and man-made. As writer Karrie Jacobs explored in her Engineer Nature series, there's an increasing recognition of the power of designing with, and not against, the landscape.
At a time when climate change is altering rainfall patterns, encouraging more and stronger storms, and raising sea levels, water is a particular focus of the exhibition. Many of the highlighted projects either restore the habitat lost from rapid growth and expansion, or find clever ways to divert, absorb, or otherwise utilize the increasing amounts of water that threatens existing urban infrastructure.
POP-UP, by the Danish firm Third Nature, exemplifies this way of thinking. An underground parking garage concept that works like a cork in a glass, it contains a vast reservoir to hold excess groundwater from storms, slowly rising as water levels increase. It's a different way of thinking about water, as a force to adapt to instead of push and channel away.
Many of these projects replace natural ecosystems that helped protect cities and urban landscapes. Burnham points to the impact of Hurricane Sandy on New York City. At the time, the city's waterfront had lost the natural oyster beds that once cultivated city harbors and provided a natural way to dispense wave forces. Now, Kate Orff, a landscape architect with the firm SCAPE, is leading a project to add artificial oyster beds, a form of so-called "oyster-tecture" that restores and reclaims a vital piece of natural infrastructure.

Reef Design Lab
As cities increasing reckon with the impact of a changing climate, and the trends and activities that have created ecological change go unabated, there will be more of a need to consider organically inclined architecture. One of Burnham's favorite projects in the exhibit is MARS, or Modular Artificial Reef Structure, a project in Melbourne, Australia seeking to replenish Pacific coral systems. This response, and instinct to repair, is what the exhibit is all about.
"How can man-made design and technology help move nature forward," he says. "For lack of a better term, it's an apology. Sorry, we screwed you up."

Back to Strategies & Actions
Cultural development is one tool in the City's toolbox of city-building. Culture transforms cities, fosters open, tolerant and innovative communities and makes a significant and positive impact on a community's quality of life.
The Cultural Plan is the result of a three-phased corporate project, known as Love your City, which was launched in 2008. The Cultural Plan embodies a leading international practice known as Municipal Cultural Planning, which takes a holistic approach to planning for a sustainable and vibrant city.
Cultural Plan Roundtable
The City of Hamilton is very pleased to announce the inaugural Cultural Plan Roundtable. 12 members were selected by a cross-corporate selection committee from a pool of over 60 applicants.

Q: Is this many to many relationship correct? I'm reading this tutorial, and I have question about it.
Look at this picture:

'Reading' the logical Relationship I read that a Project must have one or more Employee. But the physical implementation has that a Project could have zero or more ProjectEmployee.
Or maybe I am wrong and the physical implementation is correct.
What do you think?

A: The physical model is what is created in most physical implementations of a many-to-many relationship.  However, it does not correctly replicate the rules in the logical model.
The physical model allows for zero or more in both directions.  The logical model indicates one or more from project to employee.
The reason that many physical implementations of any relationships do this is that in many DBMSs the SQL declarative referential constraints (i.e. foreign key constraints) don't allow for the rule to be suspended while data is inserted into two tables at one time.  The SQL standard provides for "deferrable constraints" and some DBMSs implement these, but many don't and the ones that do haven't always, so not everyone uses them, even if they are available.  Old habits can die hard.
For the ones that don't implement deferrable constraints, think about it this way: For there to be any kind of mandatory relationship in both directions (i.e. 1:1,M or even 1:1) then you would have to insert the parent and the child at the same time.  While you can create a transaction that ensures the parent and child are created in one logical unit of work, the referential integrity rules aren't built to "suspend judgement" until the whole transaction finishes.
This is why in practice, physical implementations without deferrable constraints are essentially always optional at the child end.  This lets you insert the parent and then insert the child.
The practical way around this is generally to write additional application logic to ensure that there is at least one child per parent when 1:1,M is the rule or to just leave it and hope that users do the right thing.  These work-arounds aren't necessary if you do happen to have access to deferrable constraints.

A wide range of have not considered the marriage among religion and age. There is certainly, because of behaviours for get older and religious beliefs, virtually no link involving the two things. However, some scholars have tried to show that there is indeed a link that exists between age and religion. Regarding few exceptions, past research studies being focused on your relationship regarding years and religion assert that engagement in spiritual activities accelerates as we age. A variety of them have, still, absolutely ignored the non-company things based on involvement in faith based functions or have manipulated one single way of measuring engagement. Due to an get in touch with designed in a variety of research projects of your arrangement of overall health, scholars have considered the multidimensional conceptualization of participation in religious activity. Success found show engagement or very engagement in religious functions enhances with age. Besides, there may be rather of any convergence within both company and also low-corporate effort with soaring age group. Then finally, dimensions of contribution in spiritual activity are unchanged around differing age brackets. The aforementioned results are but the evaluations and assessments brought by several different scholars with regards to aging and religious beliefs.The above mentined analysis of the religious beliefs and aging produces in problem the facets of individualism and socialism. Turning out to be that participation in religious ventures grows with time type of sheds gentle on environment. It seems that a environment composed of elderly people is a lot more spiritual in comparison to a world composed of more radiant people today. This is just a presumption and not a fact, however. The inverse could also be correct. You can find no justified successes showing that getting old features an unfavorable effect on involvement in spiritual experience. This could be challenged by a society that has religion as its basis if indeed that was the case. In such a social setting, each and every individual, together young and old, participate in religious physical activities. As a result, it is unjustifiable to assert that only existing customers definitely be involved in spiritual functions. The relationship anywhere between growing older and religion can and so be discussed by determining societal and furthermore unique factors pertaining to together characteristics. In a number of spaces, the environment determines the course of way of life that many people receive, when in some locations, the community has no effects in anyway on man or women possibilities.
The issues of socialism and individualism may be linked to the perception or attitudes in the direction of Muslims. In the us, to illustrate, Muslims are usually exposed to scrutiny and discrimination. It is thanks to various kinds of terrorist symptoms on The us which are performed by Muslim extremists. The 9/11 bombing of the World Industry Centre in New York is an with a fraction of the functions which may have created commission among Muslims and low-Muslims. Data in reality demonstrate that 66Per cent of African-American Muslims, 60Per cent of Arab Muslims and 57% of South-Oriental Muslims truly allege they may have been themes of discrimination considering that the Sept . 11 breach. Given that that party, no-Muslims have designed a undesirable frame of mind into the Muslim religion. Islam is perceived as a debatable religion enabling particular acts include things like terrorism. This is the reason most non-Muslims have sustained to discriminate contrary to the Islam religious beliefs. Consequently, some Muslims have succumbed to the discriminatory treatment solutions that they will acquire from no-Muslims and just have resorted to disregarding Islam and both growing to be atheists or signing up with the Christian area. This is in contrast to what research has shown. Considering this, someone can are convinced that with age, Islam such as a religion is melting away supporters.The choice to oppose Islam to provide a religious beliefs is in spite of this not depending on modern society however rather on most people their own self. The facet of individualism is reasonably robust with regards to deflection of some Muslims from adhering to Islam as a good religious beliefs. It happens to be using their man or woman opportunities they will oppose Islam and turn to other styles of religion. This analysis was in precise regards to Islam being a faith. Thus, anyone can typically declare that, as we age, there are certainly amounts in addition to declines in religion. Quite a few people deflect using their religion and enroll in other ones. Additionally, the contemporary society also has a considerable position in detailing the diverse numbers with regards to the adjustments to experienced with religion. To illustrate, focusing on the same September 11 attack, some Muslims solidly experienced that, that was challenging for their religion. In retaliation, they revealed good guidance for Islam. Statistically, 89Percent of African-Us citizen Muslims, 82Percent of Arab Muslims and 72Per cent of Oriental Muslims contested that your mass media unfairly represented Muslims and also the Islam religion. Consequently, the Muslim community has taken the public jointly to stand strong and backup their religious beliefs. As years pass by, Muslim leaders have brought people together to defend their faith that is being heavily criticized by people from other denominations. When it comes to this, someone can attest that an Muslim environment is heavily associated with making sure that Muslims stick to their hope. Thereby, as we grow older, assistance in the Muslim religious beliefs keeps growing, in fact in individuals who store it dearly.A look at ageing implies that the modern culture is usually intensively impactful in constructing the lifestyles of many people in that particular culture. For instance, across the nation, getting older is strongly connected with self-reliance. Historically, the world setup quality for someone while they increase. Right after a some specific period, the younger generation have been required to grown to be independent and real-time themselves. From former analysis, 70Percent of teenagers in 2000 and who had been earlier on three decades experienced actually quit their parents' properties and stay 3rd party and had by now done 12 several years of schooling. This really is as compared with 30Percent of males in 1960. For that reason, studies have shown of the fact that contemporary society has ongoing to have an deep impact on particular person options. Partly, persons are now a good deal more run better by what the modern culture would love compared to what they really want. In regard to faith, identical can be said. The culture is to some extent dictating what faith you need to stick with. A world according to Christianity pushes specific on the way to right after Christianity. Likewise, a Muslim record forces a good when it comes to applying Islam to be a religion. There will be on the flip side far contention regarding how much affect the world has on people's single possible choices. At one point, some folks have deflected and elected that you follow what we professionally feel really suits them or quite what they desire. When this happens, one could check with the affect that socialism and individualism has on religious beliefs as yrs pass by. A number of societies so when men or women your age, they cultivate differing points of views about way of life so therefore deflect of their religion; as consumers, they suffer from the desire to experiment and practical knowledge other styles of religion. On the contrary, contemporary society furthermore outlined and crafted people's lifetime about what faith they are meant to pay attention to. By way of example a Muslim environment easily is expecting visitors to carry out Islam. In this particular world and with age group, customers become a little more staunch and enlightened regarding religious beliefs.
There exists slightly of the combat around socialism and individualism nowadays in this modern culture. According to how they want to society has some significant effect on the choices that people make while on the other hand some people live their lives. In such a case, the sufferer has made choices for her or himself. You can find no causes through the community and which affect a person's lifetime which require any factor to consider. This discord cannot be erased whatsoever; it can be substantially tricky to find out which of the two would develop into triumphant finally. The main system will be to divide socialists from individualists, which then more will be a problematic task in the proximity of to inconceivable. An identical scenario is true for getting older and religious beliefs even though the link between these factors is not actually as precise.
A great deal research is truly required in explaining the outcome that a individualism and society has on religious beliefs with respect to ageing. There are situations which you could attest that culture determines what religion someone adheres to since younger years. Consequently as you expands good old, they get more intensely and more deeply to their religion. Having said that, in additional freely available communities, consumers pick what religion that you should follow. Hence, in such a contemporary society, it becomes unjustified to state that help and support for religious beliefs boosts with time. There may be terrible requirement to carry out very much more research to the url approximately the aging process and faith, and also just how individualism and socialism carry out factor in attaching or differentiating the 2 features.

Home America Is AntiFa Planning a Communist Uprising on November 4?
Is AntiFa Planning a Communist Uprising on November 4?
Gabrielle Seunagal
According to The New American, the left wing group known as AntiFa is planning a "communist revolution" on November 4, 2017.
AntiFa and Communism
AntiFa is a leftist American group which claims to oppose fascism. They also verbally present themselves as opponents against racism, sexism, and other unfair practices. However, the perception of AntiFa greatly varies depending on who one talks to. Progressives are more likely to view AntiFa favorably, as advocates for fairness and equality. Conversely, conservatives are more likely to perceive AntiFa as violent, thuggish anarchists who take to the streets committing violence.
Americans learned of the aforementioned communist revolution on the morning of September 26. On this day, AntiFa flooded the streets, delayed extremely busy traffic, and displayed signs reading "NOV 4 IT BEGINS." Additionally, other AntiFa members chanted the following:
"No Trump, no KKK, no fascist U.S.A."
"Whose streets? Our streets!"
An excerpt from a press release regarding the communist revolution reads as follows:
"On November 4 – It Begins. Every faction within the established power structure must be forced to respond to what we do — creating a situation where the Trump/Pence regime is removed from power."
Reactions from the American People
Similarly to most occurrences in the political world, the views on AntiFa's conduct were quite divided.
Left wing progressives were considerably less critical of AntiFa. Many of them alleged that AntiFa was merely protesting what they perceive as injustices. They also cited the First Amendment, stating that members of AntiFa are well within their rights to protest.
Conversely, right wing conservatives viewed the matter quite differently. They were especially critical of AntiFa blocking traffic while also claiming to advocate for freedom.

Diabetes can cause a sugar coating that smothers body's immune defences
Research led by the Warwick Medical School at the University of Warwick has found that unhealthy glucose levels in patients with diabetes can cause significantly more problems for the body than just the well-known symptoms of the disease such as kidney damage and circulation problems. The raised glucose can also form what can be described as a sugar coating that can effectively smother and block the mechanisms our bodies use to detect and fight bacterial and fungal infections.
In diabetes, patients suffer a higher risk of chronic bacterial and fungal infections but until now little has been known about the mechanisms involved. Now new research led by Dr Daniel Mitchell at the University of Warwick's Warwick Medical School has found a novel relationship between high glucose and the immune system in humans. The researchers have found that specialized receptors that recognize molecules associated with bacteria and fungi become "blind" when glucose levels rise above healthy levels. The new research may also help explain why diabetic complications can also include increased risk of viral infections such as influenza, and also inflammatory conditions such as cardiovascular disease.
The researchers looked at the similarities in chemical structure between glucose in blood and body fluids, and two other sugar called mannose and fucose. These sugars are found on the surfaces of bacteria and fungi and act as targets for receptors in our body that have evolved to detect and bind to microbial sugars to then combat the infection.
The research found that high levels of glucose outcompetes the binding of mannose and fucose to the specialized immune receptors, potentially blocking these receptors from detecting infectious bacteria and fungi. Glucose also binds in such a way that it inhibits the chemical processes that would normally then follow to combat infections. If this happens it can inhibit a range of key processes including:
It can inhibit the function of immune system receptors called C-type lectins such as MBL (Mannose-binding lectin) which are known to bind to a sugar known as mannose that is present in the structure of infectious fungal bacterial cell walls. Unlike glucose, mannose does not exist in mammals as a free sugar in the blood.
The loss of MBL function may also predispose the body to chronic inflammatory diseases, since MBL is involved in the processing and clearance of apoptotic cells (dying cells).
A number of C-type lectins tat can be affected by raised glucose levels, including MBL, but also including immune cell surface receptors DC-SIGN and DC-SIGNR, are found in key parts of our circulation and vascular system such as plasma, monocytes, platelets and endothelial cells that line blood vessels. Inhibiting the function of these key molecules in those settings could contribute to diabetic cardiovascular and renal complications.
Warwick Medical School researcher Dr Daniel Mitchell said: "Our findings offer a new perspective on how high glucose can potentially affect immunity and thus exert a negative impact on health. It also helps to emphasize the importance of good diet on preventing or controlling diseases such as diabetes. We will build on these ideas in order to consolidate the disease model and to investigate new routes to treatment and prevention."

Pixar's new film 'Turning Red' will make anyone with anxiety feel seen
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images News/Getty Images
ByBrandon Yu
The trailer for the next Pixar film, Turning Red, dropped today, and adults everywhere can prepare themselves for tears and probably a hard look inward. The feature-length turn from Domee Shi, the director of the beloved Pixar short, Bao, looks like it will continues Pixar's track record in recent years of making supposedly heartwarming kids movies that are in fact gut-wrenching films that make adults feel seen.
Out in spring of 2022, the film follows a young girl who not only appears to struggle with anxiety, but turns into a giant agitated red panda each time she does. The teaser does seem to indicate it'll be a lighthearted adventure about the scariness of being a kid — in particular, a major storyline seems to center on the difficult relationship between the protagonist, Mei Mei, and her mother. But if their track record indicates anything, Pixar will somehow turn the journey into a surprisingly profound reflection for adults about mental health — the ending of the trailer features Mei Mei essentially calming herself out of a panic attack and out of her giant panda form — seemingly about fighting the general anxieties of facing the world.
After all, among the most impactful bunch from Pixar's recent fare have been films that feel in fact entirely geared toward themes for grown-ups: the premise of Turning Red so far appears to be a metaphor for how anxiety can turn us into monsters; in its reflection of a fading childhood, Inside Out felt like a heartbreaking reflection on what it means for all of us to process our loss of innocence; Soul tracked a man flailing in his adulthood, hoping to find his purpose, only to realize that being alive is the key to life itself. Even the recent Luca, whose premise featured a subtext about queer identity, felt like a kind of love letter to those who have struggled to be accepted for their differences. (And of course, Finding Nemo counts as likely the worst horror film for any parent.)
It's the type of depth that has added a new dimension to the power of Pixar over the past few years, and also reinvigorated their particular brand of magic that was deflated by some films — like the sequels to the Cars trilogy, unequivocally the worst Pixar projects — that deviated from their once sterling stretch of universally beloved works. In short, the kids are all right, but maybe the adults aren't so much.
