Choral music has played a central role in the international success of Aotearoa New Zealand's music. Since Professor Peter Godfrey and subsequently Dr Guy Jansen began building up our choirs a few decades ago, choral music has increasingly become one of New Zealand's most important musical exports. Today, few could argue that one of the most central figures in choral music in this country is Dr Karen Grylls. In her roles as Artistic Director of Voices New Zealand Chamber Choir since its founding in 1998, Conductor of the New Zealand Youth Choir from 1989 to 2011, and staff member of the University of Auckland since 1985, Karen has been central not "only" as a conductor, but also as a teacher and as a supporter of new music. Many of the conductors of New Zealand's most successful secondary school and community choirs are her former conducting students, and many alumni of the National Youth Choir have gone on to major international careers (The King's Singers' Christopher Bruerton, who is performing tonight, among them). Works she or her choirs commissioned from New Zealand composers such as Eve de Castro-Robinson, Leonie Holmes, Gillian Whitehead and David Hamilton have been performed all over the world.
Voices NZ was recognised as one of the world's leading choirs right after its founding at the 1998 International Choral Competition in Tolosa, Spain. One hallmark of choirs at this level is that they have an identifiable sound, a sound that remains roughly the same in spite of individual singers coming and going. Usually this sound comes down to the conductor. What is the Karen Grylls sound? If we were to get technical, we could say it's rooted in the English cathedral choir tradition (learned from Peter Godfrey) with superstrata of North American sound production and a Scandinavian aesthetic affinity, all built on a deeper foundation of Kiwi knowhow and daring-do. But no matter how it is described, it is a sound that is immediately recognisable. How is it that a non-singing figure in front of a choir can shape the sound in such an identifiable way? How can even different iterations of Voices NZ sound like the same choir over time? It starts with the ears, specifically with voice matching. To an outsider, the process of voice matching looks like some sort of arcane ritual. Singers might sing a short phrase, such as the opening of "God save the Queen", over and over again as they are placed beside other singers in various combinations. "George and Jim clash; try putting George on the other side of Fred." "No, Fred needs to be next to Sam." "Well, try the Fred–Sam core between George and Jim." "God save our…" "Yes, that's it! The section came alive!" While most people wouldn't immediately hear the difference, the trained ears of an excellent conductor know that such minute changes of placing can have major effects on the final sound of the choir, and experts like Karen Grylls and her team can imagine from hearing individuals how they will contribute to the full choral sound. You can bet that any choir with a gorgeously blended sound is the product of long voice matching sessions before the music has even been extensively rehearsed.
Once the choristers are sitting in the optimal position, it is time to work on the repertoire at hand. Vowel tuning lies at the centre of the process of bringing music from the score to the concert hall in a pleasing way. There is a scientific explanation for this: different vowels (of which English has about 24) all produce different overtones. If the whole choir is not singing the same vowel, the overtones clash with each other and can give the impression of being out of tune. Tuning a piano, with three strings for each note, takes quite a long time; imagine how much more work is involved in tuning 24 singers!
Another important feature of Voices NZ rehearsals that leads to the Grylls sound is storytelling. Never are sounds allowed to be merely beautiful; they also need to be invested with dramatic and narrative intent. Having a clear story in mind helps the singers to present something that goes beyond the score, and a lot of rehearsal time is given over to deciding on the story to be told in a particular piece. For example, rehearsing Bob Chilcott's "We Are" for this performance included consideration of poet Maya Angelou's history: to be able to tell this story effectively the choir needed to know where the text came from.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, teamwork is central to Karen's approach. Karen relies upon trusted artistic advisors to help shape the sound, her rehearsals are not one-woman shows but rather offer a model of collaboration. Vocal coaches Catrin Johnsson and Robert Wiremu provide innumerable insights into everything from vowel production to storytelling, and CEO Arne Herrmann and Operations Manager Emma Billings ensure a smooth process. A successful choir can only really work with excellent skills both on the rostra and behind the scenes: all contribute to what an audience hears in a performance.
This ethos of teamwork extends to the choir members themselves. Most come with previous experience of working with Karen, either in the University of Auckland Chamber Choir, the National Youth Choir, or both. This leads to a shared approach to music-making and also a great deal of investment among the choir in the process of producing the best sounds possible. World-class choirs like Voices NZ work on the assumption that its members know how to read music at sight. When a full concert needs to be prepared with only two days of rehearsal, there is no time to waste on note-bashing. Especially difficult pieces or new ones without existing performance histories are sent to the choir in advance, but busy schedules all around mean that most members will not have had much time to learn the music beforehand. Mistakes can be made in rehearsal (they are a natural part of the learning process), but only once: a singer who cannot fix a mistake quickly is unlikely to be asked back. While speed is of the essence in rehearsal, years of patient musical study are required before a singer can get to that place. Technique lies at the heart of all successful musicmaking, and that goes for the conductor as well as the singers. Karen has a natural gift for visual communication, backed up by a desire to keep learning about the technical aspects of music. In this, she serves as a model for those who sing with her, emphasising that we should all strive to never stop learning and reminding us that we all (including the audience) have important roles to play in the creation of the music.
Good choirs do not happen by chance or by magic. They need a conductor's guiding vision to transform a large group of individuals into the entity called a choir, they need new music to perform, they need a unified conception of sound, they need to be founded on good technique, and they need to successfully pass on their music to audiences of all types. We are lucky here in our long white cloud to have all of these traits embodied in the person of Karen Grylls.

Nikolai Kokx - 'The Hand' - 22 June-16 July 2018, Photospace Gallery Wellington, New Zealand
This photographic series consists of images of the anonymous hands of secondary school students who have branded their hands with "tattoos" in biro. Often the product of classroom boredom, these applications of ink may appear as mindless doodlings, but on closer examination they reveal loaded subliminal messages of a kind suggesting speculation on the origins and significance of the tattoo in human societies, as well as engaging us with associated and often unsettling social issues and very contemporary ideas around the construction of self – in this case the volatile teenage self.

'American Granite' - Sarb Johal, 22 June-16 July 2018
"Often, there is a view that taking photographs of objects and scenery somehow interferes with our enjoyment or experience of being in the moment. However, the reality is more nuanced than this simplistic view. Taking photographs can also heighten our sensibilities and sensitivity and increase our engagement in our experiences. For me, walking around a snowbound Yosemite National Park was a truly wondrous experience. My wife and I were amongst the last to be admitted into the Park for two days as the snow mounted up and transport options both into and out of Yosemite became difficult. Many of these photographs were made wandering around with a Park Ranger in sub-zero temperatures one morning. I went back to my room so cold that I couldn't actually move my fingers for a few minutes. I remember nervously checking my camera memory card to see that my fingers were working well enough in the field to have actually pressed the shutter when I thought I had. "
Dr Sarb Johal is a Clinical Psychologist and photographer. He enjoys experimenting with different styles of photography, including documentary, portrait, travel and landscape. He has been taking photographs for as long as he can remember, first using 110 and 126 film cameras before moving on to 35mm film with a Praktica B100. He was an early adopter of digital photography, and has recently moved to the Fujifilm mirrorless camera system. These photographs were made with a Fujifilm X-T1 and 18-55mm lens.

High quantity of content, churned out rapidly?
High-quality content, created with purpose?
Of course, the right volume of content is paramount when developing a Content Monetization Portal, but success doesn't come from cranking out content for the purpose of having a lot of content. In order to gain – and keep – a paying, engaged audience, you must create effective content that provides real value. Of course, that's easier said than done. But with this handy list of five must-dos to create effective, sellable content, you'll have a solid start to the type of content everyone wants to buy.
Don't just dive in and start creating content. Take the time to map your knowledge first. Your Knowledge Map is the storage center for the information that you have to share and want to sell to your audience. Use your Knowledge Map as the road map for content creation. The way the map is organized can help you determine your highest-priority content, and gives you a visualization of where each piece of content fits into the big picture; preventing overlaps, repetition and gaps.
This is your foundation to plan a full curriculum that provides an end-to-end experience for users, which is first and foremost what potential users want to buy. Nobody wants to buy a book with the last two chapters missing. Likewise, nobody wants to sign up for a Content Monetization Portal that doesn't have all the need-to-know info.
You wouldn't buy clothes in the wrong size; likewise, your audience won't buy content that wasn't designed with them in mind. During the planning phase of your Content Monetization Portal, conduct thorough stakeholder research that includes interviews with actual stakeholders who work in and with your business. The resulting personas will guide and inform every piece of content you sell. Consider these your manual on how to communicate with your audience. As a piece is planned, the persona is used to determine the priorities of the target audience, where they are in their journey, and their current level of understanding — creating the perfect tailored service for them.
Every piece of content in a Content Monetization Portal should be created with two purposes: the learning objective for the audience, and the overarching objective for your business. Even the smallest, most granular-level goals must align with the overarching goals of your content monetization program.
If you don't set clear goals for each piece of content you create, you fall into the trap of creating content just for the sake of having it there. Slapping together an article just to take up space does not create the value that paying audiences want. Every bit of information they consume from you should help them get one step closer to their own goals — it's symbiotic; you help them achieve their goals and they help you achieve yours.
You have your map. You know to whom you're talking. You have clear goals in mind. So how do you create the value your audience is looking for – and paying for? The key is specificity and focus. Every piece must be specific. It should answer a single question, solve a single problem, convey a single concept. It should move the reader or viewer one step closer to better understanding or goal achievement.
You must also take care not to tread into "salesy" territory. Your audience is paying you to learn new things, not get sold on other products — that would be like paying to go to the movies to watch the previews, not the film. The good news is that valuable content can grow service or product sales without ever having to forcefully ask for more from your customers. If you provide actual value in your paid content, you will grow other sales relationships organically over time.
Imagine yourself at a five-star steakhouse. You're dressed to the nines, you've ordered a bottle of wine, and you can't wait to eat. But if your meal arrived slapped together on a plastic plate, you'd be upset. Presentation matters when you're paying a premium.
The same holds true for your content. You can have the most sought-after knowledge in your field, but none of that matters if you present an article that is riddled with typos or a shaky video with poor audio quality. No one will trust you if the web design is outdated, or if the site performs poorly. In order to really connect with your stakeholders, your content — and the entire Content Monetization Program — must reflect the quality and professionalism of your business. Simply put, great content comes in a great package.
As you think about the ways in which you can create effective content for your audience, remember that these five concepts all work in tandem. You must follow each of these five steps in order to end up with content that resonates with your audience and delivers on your promise to provide value. That's what sells on a Content Monetization Portal.

As Iran veers right, ties with Gulf Arabs may hinge on nuclear pact
By Ghaida Ghantous Posted on June 20, 2021
FILE PHOTO: Iranian presidential election
DUBAI (Reuters) -Gulf Arab states are unlikely to be deterred from dialogue to improve ties with Iran after a hardline judge won the presidency but their talks with Tehran might become tougher, analysts said.
Prospects for better relations between Muslim Shi'ite Iran and Sunni Gulf Arab monarchies could ultimately hinge on progress to revive Tehran's 2015 nuclear accord with world powers, they said, after Ebrahim Raisi won Friday's election.
The Iranian judge and cleric, who is subject to U.S. sanctions, takes office in August, while nuclear talks in Vienna under outgoing President Hassan Rouhani, a more pragmatic cleric, are ongoing.
Saudi Arabia and Iran, longtime foes, began direct talks in April to contain tensions at the same time as global powers have been embroiled in nuclear negotiations.
"Iran has now sent a clear message that they are tilting to a more radical, more conservative position," said Abdulkhaleq Abdulla, a UAE political analyst, adding that Raisi's election might make improving Gulf ties a tougher challenge.
"Nevertheless, Iran is not in a position to become more radical … because the region is becoming very difficult and very dangerous," he added.
The United Arab Emirates, whose commercial hub Dubai has been a trade gateway for Iran, and Oman, which has often played a regional mediation role, were swift to congratulate Raisi.
Saudi Arabia and Bahrain are the only Gulf states yet to comment.
"The faces may change but the leader is (Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali) Khamenei," columnist Khaled al-Suleiman wrote in Saudi newspaper Okaz.
Raisi, an implacable critic of the West and an ally of Khamenei, who holds ultimate power in Iran, has voiced support for continuing the nuclear negotiations.
"If the Vienna talks succeed and there is a better situation with America, then (with) hardliners in power, who are close to the supreme leader, the situation may improve," said Abdulaziz Sager, chairman of Gulf Research Center.
A revived nuclear deal and the lifting of U.S. sanctions on the Islamic Republic would boost Raisi, easing Iran's economic crisis and offering leverage in Gulf talks, said Jean-Marc Rickli, an analyst at Geneva Centre for Security Policy.
Neither Iran nor Gulf Arabs want a return to tensions of 2019 which saw attacks on tankers in Gulf waters and on Saudi oil installations, then the 2020 U.S. killing, under former President Donald Trump, of top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani.
A perception that Washington was now disengaging militarily from the area under U.S. President Joe Biden has prompted a more pragmatic Gulf approach, analysts said.
Nevertheless, Biden has demanded Iran rein in its missile programme and end its support for proxies in the region including in Yemen, which are key demands of Gulf Arab nations.
"The Saudis have realised they can no longer rely on the Americans for their security … and have seen that Iran has the means to really put pressure on the kingdom through direct attacks and also with the quagmire of Yemen," Rickli said.
Saudi-Iran talks have focused mainly on Yemen, where a military campaign led by Riyadh against the Iran-aligned Houthi movement for over six years no longer has U.S. backing.
The UAE has maintained contacts with Tehran since 2019, while also forging ties with Israel, Iran's arch regional foe.
Sanam Vakil, an analyst at Britain's Chatham House, wrote last week that regional conversations, particularly on maritime security, were expected to continue but "can only gain momentum if Tehran demonstrates meaningful goodwill".

Kate Bae
You have probably figured out by now that we love paintings and installations; naturally, we had to feature Kate Bae, a New York based artist who creates striking installations incorporating pieces of cast and peeled paint! Relying on her own experience and neurosis, Kate transforms a traditionally two dimensional medium into the third dimension, often mimicking nature.
Born and raised in Busan, Korea, Kate Bae is an immigrant artist and independent curator based in New York City. She holds an MFA from Rhode Island School of Design and a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, both in painting. Some of her recent exhibitions include Temporary Approximations and Grow, co-curatorial projects with Fictional Art Collective, an women artist led organization based in NYC. Kate is also recipient of several awards, Creative Capital Professional Development Program in 2018 and New York Foundation for the Arts Immigrant Artist Mentoring Program in 2017. She has attended many residencies such as the Sam and Adele Golden Foundation for the Arts, SÍM Seljavegur Residency, the Studios at Mass MoCA, Trestle Gallery Residency, the Wassaic Project, Contemporary Artist Center, Tentacles+Surface Arts, Post Contemporary Residency, Marpha Foundation, Nepal, and most recently at Soaring Gardens, PA. Kate has exhibited at Ground Floor Gallery, Brooklyn, NY; Trestle Gallery, Brooklyn, NY; The Knockdown Center, Maspeth, NY; Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art, Wausau, WI; Visual Center for Contemporary Art, Carlow, Ireland; Space One, Seoul, Korea, and currently showing at the Sunroom Project Space in Wave Hill, Bronx, NY.
Kate explains her work:
My work stems from a neurosis, a skin-picking syndrome called excoriation disorder: I continually peel the skin on the inner corner of my thumb. I'm pretty sure I formed the habit when I was transplanted from Busan to Chicago at the age of fifteen against my wishes to stay in Korea. Consequently, I discovered that peeling paint is a very effective way to deal with anxiety, and it gave me pleasure and satisfaction. This neurosis led me to experiment with paint materials. After casting and pouring paint, I peel the acrylic like skin. The process ultimately changes the identity of painting, which transforms when there is no canvas, brushstrokes, or content: it exists only as material. Pushing the boundaries of painting and its language feels like a gesture that corresponds to my ideas about awareness, an experience parallel to my own navigation through life as an immigrant woman.

Reincarnation refers to the transmigration of souls the doctrine that after death the soul moves on to inhabit another body then die again and then another body and so on.
Belief in some form of this doctrine of endless cycles of birth death and re-birth can be found in almost all societies primitive or sophisticated. Variations in it exist according to the local and regional differences in faith and popular culture. In the most materialistic societies especially whose formal culture denies spiritual life there is almost a fashion for pseudo-religious belief among certain small circles of people who claim that the spirits of the dead wander about sometimes taking physical form and can influence the living until they (the spirits) settle into their 'new bodies. It would be impractical here to go into the details of the different forms and fashions of this doctrine; more worthwhile perhaps would be to describe the main substance of it.
One argument for the antiquity of the doctrines of reincarnation is the 'evidence' in ancient literature in the tales of metamorphosis for example. Ovid's colorful extravagances of that name in which 'gods' take on human and animal forms humans take on a diversity of different shapes etc. But these tales do not constitute a doctrine; the doctrine proper is not to do with simply colorful change of form but with a belief that an individual soul must pass through every 'level' of creation every species of life form animate or inanimate sentient or insentient. If we reflect upon this we soon realize that the doctrine is really a strange elaboration on the immortality of the soul. In other words the kernel of it is the intuition that the soul is immortal. That kernel is true; the rest is not. The doctrine may also have arisen from the observation of the likeness in physical and other traits between parents and offspring: in other words the biological phenomena of heredity perfectly intelligibly explained by the laws of genetics are given a less intelligible indeed ownright irrational explanation by the doctrine of reincarnation.
The doctrine is said to have emerged in the Nile basin spreading thence to other regions and peoples to India for example and back west from thence to Greece. There the eloquence of the philosophers rationalized it (incredibly it seems to us) into a source of consolation and hope for people who as do all people longed for eternity. Among the major religions the doctrine was initially infiltrated into Judaism by the Kabbalists and by the contrivance of Jewish thinkers into Christianity and finally into the ideas of some Sufis-despite the hard labors of Muslim theologians to refute such a distortion.
To support it every apologist for the doctrine put forward some 'evidence'. For instance the Kabbalists mention the transformation of Niobe (mentioned in the Old Testament) into a marble sculpture and of the wife of the Messenger Lot into a statue made of dust.
Another argument explains instinct and intelligence in animals and the splendors of the plant kingdom as once human intelligence and vitality which had entered into them. The idea debases humanity and shames its proponents: it is really difficult to accept that such an assertion even if made on the spur of the moment could be made by people of any understanding. Certainly it is beyond doubt that there is a program and a predetermined destiny for plants and inanimate creation. But it is rather far fetched to trace the harmony and order we see in the plant or mineral kingdoms to souls which formerly lived as or in human beings. Actually plants and trees have a certain life a plant life a direction of growth towards light and moisture but this does not mean that this is the activity of the soul of a human soul cast down or a soul on its way up the levels of creation.
Despite efforts to corroborate this no-one has ever received any message from a plant form confirming that it contains a soul that once belonged to a human being nor have we heard any account from a human being that he or she was once the soul of a plant or animal. True there have been claims spread about by tabloids and other such media of people recollecting 'past lives' even recounting incidents from their past lives. Where these claims are not totally absurd and ridiculous ravings their substance can easily be explained as recollections of what the individual has seen or read and then knowingly or otherwise elaborated and transformed as in any ordinary human fiction.
The fact that Niobe and the wife of the Messenger Lot were transformed into sculptures of marble or dust respectively even if accepted literally are neither an instance nor evidence of reincarnation. What we have in this case is a transformation of a physical kind; it has nothing to do with transmigration of the soul. As for petrified bodies that is not an arcane phenomenon: just such corpses have been found in considerable numbers preserved by the absolute dryness of volcanic ashes. Pompeii was destroyed by a sudden volcanic eruption and remained buried under the ashes of Vesuvius for hundreds of years. The excavations performed there revealed numerous Niobe-like petrified bodies. In these ruins and in the petrified faces and bodies so busy in their self-indulgent vices so secure in their arrogance we can if we wish read the signs of Divine wrath and punishment. Perhaps these figures had their way of life solidified in ash and so preserved so that future generations might witness and take heed. To interpret them as evidence of reincarnation is simply untenable.
Belief in reincarnation in Egypt. India and Greece developed as a result of distortion of once sound beliefs in the hereafter and from a longing for the immortality of the soul. Neither in Ahen-Aten's Egypt nor in Pythagoras' Greece did anyone know of the reincarnation which these distorted beliefs brought about. To Ahen-Aten when man's life ends in this world a different one starts in heaven. As soon as one dies one's soul sets off on its journey to reach 'the Greatest Court' in heaven. It goes so high that it reaches to the presence of Osiris and hopes to give an account of itself in words like these: 'I have come to Your presence as I was free from sins and throughout my life. I did do everything I could that would make devout men pleased. I did not shed blood nor did I steal. Neither did I make mischief nor did I mean any. I did not commit any adultery nor fornication whatever'. Those who can speak so join Orisis' congregation those who cannot whose evil deeds outweigh their good are hurled into hell and tortured by demons.
Such sound belief is witnessed also in epitaphs relating to Ahen-Aten's religion as follows: 'what You have done is too much and our eyes cannot perceive most of them. O One. Only God! No one possesses such might as You have. It is You who have created this universe as You wish and You alone. It is You who decree the world suitable for human beings for all animals whether big or small whether they walk on the earth on their legs or they fly up in the sky on their wings. And it is You alone who sustain and nourish them. Thanks to You all beauties come into existence. All eyes see You by means of those. Verily my heart belongs to You (You are in my heart)'. The ideas quoted verbatim above were the things which were believed in as truth in Egypt some four thousand years ago.
Likewise in Ancient Greece the belief in resurrection and the immortality of the soul were quite sound. The great philosopher Pythagoras for example believed that the soul on leaving the body has a life peculiar to itself; in fact any soul has this same kind of life even before it quits the earth. It is commissioned with some responsibilities on earth; if it commits any evil it will be punished thrown into hell and tormented by demons. On the other hand in return for the good that it does it will be given high rank and blessed with a happy life. Allowing for the changes that might have been made in the views of Pythagoras over time we can certainly still see that there are fundamental similarities with the Islamic creed of resurrection. Plato's account is not so different either. In his famous treatise The Republic he says that the soul on leaving the body forgets the material (corporeal) life totally; it ascends into an appropriate realm a spiritual one saturated with wisdom and immortality; the soul is free from all scarcity deficiency error fear and from the passion and love which afflicted it while it lived on earth; and then being free from all the evil consequences of human nature it is blessed with eternal bliss.
In a comparable way no doubt also through unscrupulous translation away from the original language and subsequent further distinctions the Ancient Egyptian. Indian and Greek religions became unrecognizable. The doctrine of reincarnation may well be one such alteration from an originally sound conception of the immortality of the soul and its return to the Divine Judgment.
After reincarnation was inscribed into the beliefs of the Ancient Egyptians it became one of the central themes of songs and legends throughout the vicinity of the Nile region. Elaborated further with the eloquent expressions of Greek philosophers it became with the expansion of Greek influence a widespread phenomenon.
The Hindus consider matter as the lowest manifestation of Brahma and deem that the convergence of body and soul is a demeaning of the soul a decline into evil. However death is believed to be salvation a separation from human defects and a possible chance to achieve an ecstatic union with the truth. The Hindus are polytheistic in practice. Their greatest god is 'Krishna' who is believed to have come in a human figure in order to eradicate evil. Their second greatest god is 'Vishnu' which means that which can penetrate the human body. According to Hinduism. Vishnu has descended into this world nine times in different shapes (human animal or flower). He is also expected to descend for the tenth time. Since they believe that Vishnu will next come to this world in the shape of an animal killing any animal is absolutely prohibited. Killing animals is only allowed during war; and the zealots of that religion do not normally eat meat. According to the Vedanta. the most important religious book of the Hindus the soul is a part a fragment of Brahma; it will never be able to get rid of suffering and distress until it returns to its origin. Soul achieves gnosis by isolating itself from the ego and all wickedness pertaining to the ego and by running towards Brahma just as a river flows down into a sea. When the soul reaches and unites with Brahma it acquires absolute peace tranquillity and stillness another version of which is Nirvana in Buddhism: there is an abatement of active seeking a passivity of soul in the latter whereas the soul is dynamic in Hinduism.
All ancient new and contemporary acceptance of the doctrine of reincarnation has one characteristic one root in common that is the belief in incarnation. There is a shared failure of intellect to both grasp and accept the Absolute Transcendence of God: corrupted by this failure people have been persuaded to believe that the Divine mixes with the corporal and that the corporal or the human will mix or can mix with the Divine. But in reality every individual lives and dies according to his or her individual destiny carries his or her individual load will be individually resurrected and individually called to answer for his or her intentions and actions and their consequences and each individually will receive Divine judgment (which is perfect justice) according to the same criteria.
We set below in the form of a list of points the cardinal reasons why the doctrine of reincarnation should be rejected. Belief in the Resurrection and Judgment when justice is meted out to each individual soul according to that individual's record in life.
1 If the individual soul passes into different lives in which form or personality will it be resurrected commanded to give account and rewarded or punished?
2 This world is created for the purpose of test and trial to benefit the soul thereby. One focus of the test is belief in the Unseen. Under the doctrine of resurrection those who live a bad life pass into a lower form of life (animal tree etc.) after death. But in that case they will know the consequences of their former life and life as test loses its meaning.
To get round this believers in this doctrine also have to have a doctrine of forgetfulness-the soul 'forgets' its past existence. In that case for all practical purposes having had (or not having had) a past existence is of no consequence to any living creature. Plainly the doctrine contradicts itself and has no bearing on life as it is lived except to make the individual accept his condition whatever it may be without actively striving for salvation.
3 If each individual is supposed to go through a painful cycle of transmigrations in order to acquire eternal bliss then God's promise to punish the wicked and the sinful and to reward the good and the righteous has no meaning for the individual life. This is unacceptable for Providence and God is far from being vain or futile in His actions.
4 The Holy Book and other Divine Books state that sins will be forgiven (if truly repented). This proves how unnecessary and cumbersome a device it is this doctrine that the soul must endure innumerable cycles to realize forgiveness. How much better do the concepts of mercy and forgiveness befit God the Beneficent Merciful Creator.
5 Long and tiresome cycles of rebirth are contrary to the mercy favor grace and forgiveness of God the All Compassionate. If He wills. He takes ordinary worthless inferior things and turns them into what is purest and best and beyond price. Infinite indeed are His blessings and munificence.
6 Among the followers of the Messengers there have been many who led wicked lives but who afterwards reformed and did so within an incredibly short time then being the revered models of virtue for later generations. After meeting the Messengers and embracing the Divine Message some of them even surpassed previous followers and came to be more revered than them. This indicates that by the favor of God one can easily and quickly rise to the summit even if previously one had been of those apparently destined for the pit. It also shows again how unnecessary is the doctrine of souls 'graduating' into higher levels of being: indeed the doctrine may have the effect of lessening incentives to moral effort.
7 To believe that God the All-Mighty has created for each individual an individual soul is a part of belief in His Omnipotence. To believe instead that a limited number of souls migrate from body to body argues the illogical proposition that the Omnipotent is not Omnipotent. The sheer abundance of life its infinite variety its refusal of mere repetition of form is everywhere evident: God is indeed All Mighty. There are approximately 5 or 5.5 billion people in the world. In recent times we have learnt how to prove that each individual is absolutely unique by looking at fingerprints or gene codes. No individual's gene code or fingerprint is like any other's a fact so reliable as to be used in forensic science to identify criminals. Another example is the observation by a German professor over thirty years of millions of pictures of snowflakes not one of which is ever exactly like any other in shape or pattern. It is scarcely imaginable how many snowflakes fall in one season on one mountainside let alone all that have ever fallen. How foolish to imply then that the Omnipotent could not create an infinite number of individual souls and supply them with an infinite number of bodies.
8 As there are about 5.5 billion people altogether on the earth could not a few of them at least have had some marks or signs on them or evidence or something convincing to tell of their memories adventures and experiences in different forms and bodies? Must not there have be an accumulation of knowledge experience and culture in some of those who have come to this world a few times or even completed their cycles? If this happened in only one out of a million should we not expect there to be a great number of people now living of extraordinary virtue and competence? Should we not have met a few of them even in our own countries? If so where are they?
9 When a body reaches an age (let's say three or four years) a measure physical maturity should we not expect the soul to emerge with as it were all the acquisition and achievement of previous lives? Should we not expect prodigies? There have been quite a few prodigies in recorded history but their special gifts need not be the result of lives lived many times before. It can equally well be explained as a special combination of genetic characteristics occurring in a particular time and place which is attributable to Divine Grace and Favor together with supreme effort on the part of the individual to understand his or her own gift in the tradition and context in which it is given.
10 No faculty special only to human beings has ever been found in any other entities animate or inanimate. But we should expect such a discovery if there were any truth in reincarnation. If a lower form of life is so to speak the consequence (punishment) for particular evil deeds in the previous life then presumably the good in that life (outweighed by the evil) must also be carried forward. In other words some part of the individual's previous life should be retained in the next life. In this case we would expect the boundaries of particular forms to be frequently burst open with for example plants never known to do so suddenly showing properties associated with animal life. But by the Mercy of God zoology and botany have not for all their many welcome advances in recent years discovered any such monsters.
11 If being a man or animal is the consequence of one's deeds in a former life which first existed man or animal the higher or the lower? Advocates of the doctrine cannot decide or agree on any form for the first creature for every generation implies a preceding generation in order that the succeeding generation may be considered as the consequence of the former. And if generation is an evil as some who believe in reincarnation also believe why did the whole thing start? Why did life begin at all? Plainly the doctrine leads again and again to absurdity.


Last week, Judge Stephen Borrello of the Court of Claims ruled in favor of school employees seeking a higher interest rate for the 3% of their earnings illegally withheld by the state. That could mean an extra check for school employees who had more than $550 million held during the seven-year legal case – if the state chooses not to appeal Borrello's ruling in the next few weeks.
Michigan's Teachers of the Year will gather together in Lansing on July 5 to celebrate their formation of a new statewide organization dedicated to cultivating teacher leadership.
The Michigan House has passed a school safety plan that would create a statewide school safety commission and provide grant money for schools to improve building security.
A package of bills targeting teacher preparation at Michigan's colleges and universities – largely opposed by MEA and higher education groups – emerged from a contentious approval process in the Education Reform Committee.
Just glancing at Facebook pictures yesterday showed the huge number of Michigan educators who participated in #WearRedForPublicEd. Those numbers are sure to grow next Wednesday – and every Wednesday through the end of the school year – as MEA members are asked to wear red to show solidarity for their profession and their students.

What HDMI cable do you need for your PS5/Xbox Series X?
By Ian Stokes
Do you need HDMI 2.1 for your PS5 or Xbox Series X, and what benefits does HDMI 2.1 offer for gamers?
If you're lucky enough to own one, you may be wondering what HDMI cable you need for your PS5 or Xbox Series X. In ages gone past, you didn't have to worry about the cables that connected your video games console to your TV - you just plugged it in with the cable that came in the box and off you went. But with each console capable of outstanding 4K gaming, you don't want to feel like you're missing out with a substandard cable.
You see, the latest generation of video games consoles (opens in new tab) - the Xbox Series X/ (opens in new tab)S and PlayStation 5 (opens in new tab) (PS5) come with a whole host of new features that only work with HDMI 2.1. Now, before you panic, we should say that your shiny new console will still display beautifully on your current TV with a standard HDMI cable. But with the advent of HDMI 2.1, there have been some advances in technology and new features that only the newest TVs can display, and even then, only when you're using a HDMI 2.1 cable.
What's all this about HDMI 2.1?
HDMI 2.1 is the latest version of the ubiquitous video cable. HDMI cables are used to connect TVs to devices like Blu-ray players, DVD players, and games consoles, but they're also used to hook up monitors to home computers.
HDMI 2.1 is the new, shiny version of this cable. The connection itself hasn't changed, so HDMI 2.0 (the previous version) and HDMI 2.1 cables will both plug into the same sockets interchangeably. What has changed is some of the internal hardware, which means that HDMI 2.1 is capable of some new and exciting things.

What's new with HDMI 2.1?
HDMI 2.1 brings with it a bunch of new features and capabilities, though some of them are more theoretical and designed with the future in mind. HDMI 2.1 supports higher resolutions, with support for up to 10K images at 120Hz. There is no such thing as a 10K TV, and an 8K TV is going to set you back something in the region of $5000. There is also basically no 8K content out there when it comes to TV and movies. Xbox claims that the Xbox Series X supports 8K but we'd love to see it run anything more demanding than Pac-Man at that resolution.
So, why should gamers care about HDMI 2.1 then? Well we've got three words for you - variable refresh rate. Variable refresh rate support means that your TV can adjust its refresh rate on the fly to match the input from your video games console. In practice this means you get a smoother image with less tearing and screen artifacts.
There are some other neat features that HDMI 2.1 offers which will improve both your visual and audio experience when playing games. HDMI 2.1 supports enhanced audio return channel (eARC) which will result in better support for enhanced audio formats like Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, etc. Auto low latency mode (ALLM) helps your Tv automatically find the ideal latency settings when you're playing games, reducing input lag without the need for custom settings. Likewise, Quick Frame Transport (QFT) helps to reduce input lag too.
And if you do have both a PS5 and Xbox Series X, then the Quick media Switching (QMS) will let you instantly hop between signals without that awkward pause you get switching between HDMI channels on normal TVs.
Do you need a HDMI 2.1 cable for your PS5 or Xbox Series X/S?
The short answer is no. The longer answer is that even if you did need one, both the Xbox Series X/S and the PS5 come with a HDMI 2.1 cable in the box as standard, so you only need to think about this if you lose that cable or it breaks.

Do I need a new TV to benefit from HDMI 2.1?
Now this is where you might run into a few issues. You see, the new consoles come ready and willing to play ball with HDMI 2.1, but if your TV isn't an up to date model then chances are that it's not capable of using some or all of the benefits of this new technology.
Most of the screens in our best TVs guide are recent models and therefore have HDMI 2.1 ports, including the LG CX, Sony A9G, and Samsung Q90T. Some models only have a limited number of HDMI 2.1 ports though, like the Q90T we just mentioned which only has a single HDMI 2.1 port. That's fine for some users, but if you have both a PS5 and Xbox Series X, then only one device can take the HDMI 2.1 slot unless you're willing to swap the cable each time you boot up the other console.
Out top picks for a HDMI 2.1 ready TV?
The easy recommendation here is the LG CX, the OLED TV that has been setting the world on fire. It offers stunning picture quality at an incredibly reasonable price. It also has four HDMI 2.1 ports which is more than enough to hook up your games consoles with room to spare.
While the LG CX is well priced for what it offers, it's still not what we'd call cheap. If you want a truly budget TV that can make the most of your shiny new games console and its HDMI 2.1 abilities then we'd like to direct your attention to the latest TVs in the Vizio M-Series. You can pick up the 55" Vizio M-Series 4K Smart TV for just $499. It even supports AMD Freesync for fluid gameplay with variable refresh rates. If you need a budget gaming TV that's future proofed, this is our top pick.

Q: Angular 6 - Lazy loading auxilary issue I need load detail in lazy module based on url. So, I had used lazy auxilary routing. But, when I use auxilary routing, i'm facing below issue.

ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): Error: Cannot match any routes.

Please find the sample link and reproducing steps below:

*

*Go to sample link https://stackblitz.com/edit/lazy-load-auxilary-b7vpg-e2ax7j

*Click lazy-route link

*Then click any one of aux route

Can any one help me to resolve this issue?

A: You need to make some changes,You don't need to name your outlet and mentioning outlet name in routing
const routes = [
  {
    path: '', component: LazyComponent,
    children: [
      {
        path: 'aux1', component: Aux1Component
      },
      {
        path: 'aux2', component: Aux2Component
      },
      {
        path: 'aux3', component: Aux3Component
      }
    ]
  }
];

    back

    aux1 route

    aux2 route

    aux3 route

<router-outlet></router-outlet>

Then you can either use  or
see update stackblitz

A: from your example (https://stackblitz.com/edit/lazy-load-auxilary-b7vpg-e2ax7j), you just need a couple of things:
I've been reading a lot these days about routing and what came back often is you can not have lazy route with empty path, so add in lazy.module routes config:
 { path: '', redirectTo: 'lazy', pathMatch: 'full' },

then modifies your empty lazy path name to 'lazy'
 path: 'lazy',

Then as comments suggested, named outlet have a specific way to use : (first router link directive should be)
[routerLink]="[ { outlets: { aux :['aux1'] }} ]"

with that your stackblitz is now working

Children's rights charity
For the English translation of "Terre des hommes" by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, see Wind, Sand and Stars. For other uses, see Terre des hommes (disambiguation).
Mr. Edmond Kaiser, founder of Terre des hommes, here in his office at Sentinelles in 1995. (Photograph by Markus Schweizer)
Terre des hommes, also Terre des Hommes (Land of People or Land of Men) is an international children's rights charitable humanitarian umbrella organization under the aegis of the International Federation of Terre des Hommes (TDHIF), with independent organizations in Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, and Syria. It was founded in 1960 by Edmond Kaiser in Lausanne, Switzerland.[1] The organization is named after Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's 1939 philosophical memoir "Terre des hommes" (English title: Wind, Sand and Stars). An important part of the TDHIF's work is as a consultant to the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). Promoting the Convention on the Rights of a Child is an important activity of Tdh. Advocating for children's rights, defending them, and spreading information are tasks which Terre des Hommes – to the aid of children considers a priority. TDHIF runs the two campaigns 'Destination Unknown' - Children on the Move (www.destination-unknown.org) and 'Children Win' - Changing the Game of Mega Sporting Events (www.childrenwin.org). Foundation of the organization was awarded Balzan Prize in 2018.

Switzerland[edit]
Two organizations are based in Switzerland. Besides Terre des Hommes Switzerland, there is the Lausanne based Tdh Foundation – child relief (Tdh), which is known for its health and child protection operations implemented in more than 30 countries, including development projects – such as the long-term improvement of care in Benin or fighting against malnutrition in Bangladesh; as well as emergency aid – such as the tsunami-affected regions of Sri Lanka or in Haiti following the earthquake in January 2010.
Germany[edit]
The Germany branch supports over 200 projects in 37 countries, and has regional offices in Colombia, India, Iraq, Thailand, South Africa and Germany.
Netherlands[edit]
The Netherlands branch supported 297 projects, created and established by local organisations, in 22 countries.
Webcam child sex tourism awareness raising[edit]
In 2013, adult offenders from rich countries, willing to pay for watching children from poor countries to perform sexual acts in front of the webcam, i.e. engaging in webcam child sex tourism, were recorded and their identity disclosed. They used a motion captured virtual bait: a Filipino girl named Sweetie. Identities of more than 1,000 offenders from more than 65 countries were handed over to Interpol. Arrests were made and other victims were rescued, resulting in global media coverage for the project. Together with Avaaz.org, Terre des Hommes the Netherlands has created an online petition to pressure governments to adopt proactive investigation policies in order to protect children against webcam child sex tourism.
Spain[edit]
The Spain branch financially supports various direct relief programs for children in many countries in Africa, Latin America and Eastern Europe, for social aid and education, the rights of children and mother-and-child health care. In Spain there is also a campaign for awareness-raising, entitled "Stop child trafficking", with the aim of fighting all the various forms of child exploitation. Terre des hommes Spain also carries out significant medical aid for children from several African countries, thanks to the program "Journey towards Life".
France[edit]
The France branch works with partners in the field on activities that protect and defend economic, social and cultural rights.
Luxembourg[edit]
"Let us make a commitment for the rights of the children". Terre des Hommes Luxembourg (TdHL) was constituted as a non-profit organisation on July 10, 1966. In April, 2010, TdHL got the accreditation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Luxembourg) and the name humanitarian NGO (Non-Governmental Organization). Fields of activity: Cooperation in the development and the improvement of the fate of childhood, regardless of race, religion, politics and culture and to bring an immediate and direct help to the most unfortunate childhood. It also has for object to make sensitive the public opinion in the problems of developing countries and to collaborate with agencies or individuals who pursue similar purposes as well as with the public authorities.
2008 Ethiopian paedophilia allegations[edit]
In 2008 Terre Des Hommes-Lausanne brought a defamation suit against a teacher in Ethiopia, Jill Campbell, for accusing the branch of knowingly hiding child abuse in one of its centres in the village of Jari.[2] Mrs Campbell compiled evidence which helped to convict a British paedophile who was sentenced in 2003 to 9 years hard labour in prison. Another suspect committed suicide after posting a confession on the internet.[2] However Mrs Campbell alleged that senior staff running the centre knew of the abuse, covered it up and failed to inform the authorities.[2]
Mrs Campbell faced 6 months in prison if she failed to withdraw the allegations.[2] Her husband Gary had already withdrawn similar allegations in order to avoid prison and ensure that one of the couple would be able to look after their two ten-year-old adopted children.[2] The charity eventually withdraw its suit before Campbell was due to be sentenced on 7 March, saying that her husband's apology was sufficient.[3][4]

The first bossa nova records by João Gilberto, in the last years of the 50s, quickly became huge hits in Brazil. Antonio Carlos Jobim and other composers helped further develop this fusion of jazz harmonies and a smoother, often slower, samba beat, which developed at the beach neighborhoods of Ipanema and, later, the Copacabana nightclubs. Bossa nova was introduced to the rest of the world by American jazz musicians in the early 1960s, and song "The Girl from Ipanema" remains probably the best known Brazilian musical export, eventually becoming a kind of jazz standard. Some of more recent names in Bossa and Bossa Nova are; Adriana Godoy, Angel Duart, Alaide Costa,Sergio Augusto, Simone Guimarães, Thereza Blota, Aurio Corra, Edson X, Moises Santana and Lunas jr which have all contributed towards this album.
