# Philosophy of Religion/Miracles

Miracle!
The moment we utter this word, we long left the realm of spirituality and strayed way deep into the jungle thickets of blind religion! After all what is a miracle? A miracle is one which defies normality. Make clouds rain gold coins. God forbid lest someone's head might bleed but that's a miracle! Make a goat lay a man. Of course miracle! Some miracles may not be funny and may even be very conducive to harmony and peace as well, like, say reviving the victims of a car crash or even a tsunami. These are no doubt miracles.
Now let us say, we do find someone who could do such inexplicable things. What is in it for us? That someone could do, but not you! One might say, "sir, that solidifies my faith in him!". Hmm! If the one who is capable of these things, why does he care a hoot for your meagre and/or stupid faith? He can create the faith if he so desires! The counter could be, "He did all these to lift my soul higher".
YES, here we come to the crux of the problem. What we are saying is, "God, first show me a miracle, then I will see if the miracle is good enough of your power to submit to you or not!" My goodness! So we want to test the Lord! So miracle is the test for the Lord to garner support of the decadent lot! So Lord is such a cheap magician dying for our popularity!
And some religions even go out of their way to declare somebody a saint, who might already be very noble otherwise. And they do this most of the time after the person died. Or such a noble person may never accept to such stupidity. So let the person die first. Then resurrect him as a saint! Or kill him yet another time! And to qualify to be a saint, the person must have done at least a couple of miracles! Otherwise he can't be MADE the saint, even if he were one already! He must have sneezed an ounce of silver or vomited pound of gold! If one is such a great miraculous person, what does a stupid title of sainthood bestow on him extra anyway? A live miraculous person will never care. And nor does a dead one either! So who cares? The ones assuming the charge of making the kings! So they patiently wait the real saint to die first. They had to! And then do their bidding! Stupid religiosity.
But the greatest miracle is to be able to know that you can't know the God but know Him anyway to be no different from yourself or anyone to the extent there is no you or anyone, but just Him that is It and She! Knowing God is knowing everyone as no different from oneself. This is most rarest and most toughest miracle of all! The person who can do this miracle is a saint without the need of any titles whatsoever! While being alive or while being dead, for such a He is never alive nor dead!
# Philosophy of Religion/What is the nature of the divine?

What is the nature of the divine?
This very question the way it is posed takes away all the divinity that might otherwise be there! So long as one looks at the nature of the divine as something that is objectively comprehensible, they will never ever know, nor there anything left of divine to know! So long as you sit on the banks and try to measure the temperature, you will never know how hot or cold the water is. How deep or shallow the river is. Just take out all the clothing paraphernalia and jump right in, get immersed in. Once fully in, what cold or what heat! You should neither feel it, nor care any more to know it. You will realize that you just know that you already knew. So also take out all the adornments that we put on by habit. Drop all I, me, mine, he she, it and lose yourself into the divine. Once you are fully in, there remains nothing to be known, even the divinity that we started out to find. You will know that you, as if you were remaining as you, will know that you were ever divine even before knowing. Before you jumped in, while jumping in and after jumping in. And if only you could stay there in divinity, you can come right back out while still staying steady back there!
So what is the nature of divinity? Hmm! So you still want to sit on the banks then! So be it!
# Philosophy of Religion/Why think about religion?

The question is not, "Why think about my religion?" Obviously, if you dedicate yourself to a belief, you will think about it. The question is, "Why think about religion in general?" or "Why think about the nature of all religions?"
Paul Tillich defined religion as "our ultimate concern for the Ultimate," and although it's too broad a definition for purposes of this work, it underscores a commonality in all religions. What sort of questions do religions answer?
Where do I come from? What is my essential nature? What is my ultimate relationship to the universe? What is the origin of the universe? Is there any real reason for my existence or am I simply an accidental product of nature? Is there a reason to do what I do and is there a reason for abstaining from doing things that I feel that I should not do? Do I cease my existence at some point in the future and, if not, what happens to me when I die?
Are these questions relevant to people and should they consider them? Obvious extensions of the above questions present themselves and indicate that a religion should be of interest to anyone:
If there is a purpose to my life, what is it and what should I do about it? If I continue after I die, how should I approach the situation as to improve the condition that I will be in at that time?
Martin Jaffee reminds us that our world view is not the only one and that a consideration of other people's world view reminds us of how precarious our idea of "what ultimately is" is. Therefore a study of religion results in a healthy humility that somewhat protects us from fanaticism.
Robert Odem, in his lecture series on comparative religion emphasizes two reasons to consider religion in its generality. The first is that, like Mount Everest, "it is", meaning that it is an important part of the lives of people around you and to understand them, you really must understand their religious beliefs.
His second point is that religion is an inextricable part of world affairs. You cannot understand the condition of the Middle East without understanding the religions of the Middle East. You cannot understand world art and architecture without understanding the religious sentiments of the artists. You certainly cannot, for example, understand Bach's achievements without understanding his religious views and his position in the church. Protestantism had a lot to do with the growth of capitalism and the work ethic in America.
To really understand world affairs you cannot dismiss the role and importance of religion.

# Phoenix

Phoenix is a shoot-em-up game for many systems including Texas Instruments calculators. This guide deals with the TI-83+ version.
To win the game, you must beat a certain number of levels. Most players accomplish this by killing everything as fast as they can, and upgrading shields at every opportunity...a strategy was devised by Kevin Yang, for players of intermediate skill to beat it. It consists of the following order.
Beating levels 1-4 with at least 1/5 of your shields remaining for level 5. You do not buy any weapons, upgrades, or shields. There is an option where you can buy weapon 2 to help you out, however, that could result in failure of the strategy. If all goes well, you should have accumulated enough money by the end of level 4 to buy the 5th weapon. Without dying, you must beat level 5 and upgrade your shields afterwards.

## Game Concepts

* High Scores
* Weapon 1 (you start with this weapon)

### Shop

* Shield+
* Weapon 2
* Wingman (Helper)
* Upgrade
* Weapon 3
* Weapon 4
* Weapon 5

### Enemies

* Enemy 1
* Enemy 2
* Enemy 3
* Enemy 4
* Enemy 5
* Enemy 6
* Enemy 7
* Enemy 8
* Enemy 9
* Enemy 10
* Enemy 11
* Boss 1
* Boss 2
* Boss 3
* Special Enemy

## Levels

Level 1- 2 series of enemies followed by a boss. First two series have 6 columns and 3 rows of enemies. The enemies fire straight down. Each enemy can be killed with two shots. The boss only one row of enemies. Behind them is a boss that scrolls from side to side and shoots in your ships direction.
# Philosophy of Religion/God's will and obedience

God's will and obedience!
There are three nouns and a conjunction here! To understand this whole sentence, if it is one, we shall understand each one of them first and then juxtapose them as proposed and see if they make any sense in that order.
First noun is God.To understand this concept (Yes, it is just a concept of one's mind of something that doesn't fit in any mind!), one take a look at Does God exist? or Creator/destroyer
Now let us come to His will. If one understood God from the above references, then one would know his will too! You will realize that God and His will are not two separate and different things, and nor God stands apart from you like an object, a vacuum cleaner or a hammer or something else! So god's will is a funny meaningless expression, something like Ocean's wave! How self-standing and how extraneous is wave of an Ocean? So is the will of God.
Now comes the problematic word obedience! Now who obeys whom, when there are no two entities? Neither god, nor you but just One, the God, just You! So obedience is a meaningless word in this context. When understanding matures, what remains is mere execution of harmonious actions without appropriation of the outcomes to one's own self. There neither should or will remain a sense of ownership in doing, nor an expectation of any particular outcome for one's effort, but will be accompanied by a gracious acceptance of whatever finally transpires. The calmness and the serenity that is never lost even in that commotion of intense effort is the best possible meaning for obedience. And if one wants to call that obedience, yes, that could be the best befitting definition to this last piece of the puzzle.
At the end we come to and. This word is for dramatization, that falls out of the thinking that something exalted being stated in the sentence, while in reality whole thing never made any sense!
Now go back to the sentence and contemplate. You will know the meaning!
# Philosophy of Religion/Justice

Prudence is the highest natural virtue, as the power through which we properly see the world and determine the moral actions that we should take. Justice is the particular application of this between individuals and collectives.
There are several kinds of justice. Commutative justice is between individuals. This is the most common category that is thought of as justice - punishment for crimes, fairness in transactions, paying proper respect to someone. Distributive justice is between the collective and individuals - this is care for the poor, police forces, etc. Individuals must also be careful to exercise justice with respect to the collective - we each have an individual responsibility to those around us to be a moral, upright human being in our personal lives, even when it is hidden from others. Justice can also be applied to interactions between collectives. Peoples are morally obligated to deal with each other squarely, to interact fairly, and to respect each other.
The most important aspect of justice, however, is the justice between each individual and God. We have to ensure that we pay the proper respects to God based on the reality of our relationship to Him. The precise details of what this implies change based on the level of God's revelation we have assented to, but being open to God's revelation in the first place is also part of this justice. At the lowest end, for those who have not been exposed to the Gospel, justice to God consists of following natural law and behaving morally towards ourselves and others, even if we do not offer explicit worship to God.
At the highest end, for those who have the fullness of faith in the Catholic Church, justice towards God includes everything previous, but also things that are explicitly revealed in the Catholic religion. This includes things such as thankfulness towards God for providing our salvation and proper respect and appreciation for all the gifts of religion. It also includes respecting our obligations to the Church, recognizing the Church's duties imposed upon us as a vicarious part of God's will.
Nicholas Gomez Davila said, "For God, there are only individuals". Carrying out justice towards God means justice in our relationships towards fellow man. Respecting the most fundamental, individual justice between man and God leads to all other forms of justice.
# Legal framework of textual data processing for Machine Translation and Language Technology research and development activities/Introductory Material on Legal issues of TDM
## Introduction

Objective of this report is to present the key legal issues with regard to Language Resources (LR) re-use, particularly in Machine Translation (MT) and Machine Processing (MP) settings, provide a simple report as to the permitted acts and make key policy suggestions as to amendments in the relevant bodies of legislation.
LR processing requires the use and re-use of information of various kinds, in a variety of ways, by different types of organisations and, as a result, it involves a wide range of legal regimes. It is mostly related to Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), but it may also involve Personal Data Protection, Public Sector Information and Geodata Regulation.
In order to assess the conditions under which LR re-use in MT and MP may lawfully take place, we need to appreciate the acts it involves, the degree to which they are regulated by different types of laws and the permissions that someone needs to obtain in order to perform such acts. This report starts with the key methodological premises it has adopted and explains how the flows of rights are to be treated in a paradigmatic MT & MP scenario and what the key emerging issues are. It presents the core concepts of the main legal regimes that influence the LR-based MT & MP and elaborates on the key legal issues featuring in each of the different kinds of legal regimes. It also presents the various legal issues related to LR-based MT & MP in terms of (See Figure I):
* IPR issues
* Data Protection Issues
* Public Sector Information Issues
* Confidentiality and Other types of rights Issues
It then attempts to propose different ways in which LR-based MT & MP are to be treated, exemplifying them by a set of use cases that may be used as prototypical scenarios illustrating different aspects of the use of LR for MT/MP purposes.

# Legal framework of textual data processing for Machine Translation and Language Technology research and development activities/MT-MP:Annotation Case Studies
## Case #19 Distribution of Annotations of a Data Set I

Case description :
| Actor | Researcher-Resource Compiler & Provider |
| Intended use | Distribute the annotations to an original dataset (e.g. images, broadcasts) incl. links to specific instances of the web available dataset (e.g. the hand on an image, time sequence of a film) |
| Conditions | I have asked for permission for the originals but received no reply |
| Question | Can I distribute it under the licence of my choice? Or Do I ask for permission from sources Or Simply state the sources (attribution-like) Or Refrain from distributing it? |
| Suggested legal solution ||
| Legal position | The annotations, to the extent they are my own original work or constitute works that are not copyright protected (e.g. a URL) can be distributed under any licence of my choice. With regard to the inclusion of extracts from the original work see above. |
| Suggested course of action | Do not ask permission for linking but only for re-using original content. When the annotation includes original extracts it may still be deemed fair use/dealing or falling within the limitations and exceptions as a form of critical approach -in the broadest sense- of the original work (see e.g. Greek law 2121/1993, art.19). |
| Type of Terms and Conditions | Any licence of my choice. |
| Legal basis | Copyright Law. Emphasis on limitations and exceptions. |
# Legal framework of textual data processing for Machine Translation and Language Technology research and development activities/MT-MP:Confidential Information and Other Rights/Agreements
## Confidential Information and Other Rights/Agreements

MT & MP of LRs may be hindered if the content that is used falls under the category of trade secret or confidential information. Such could be the case particularly with regard to technical information, manuals or technical descriptions. While it could be that such information is not marked as such, it is highly unlikely that processing of such material could happen without prior knowledge of the nature of the material by the entity conducting the MP/MT. It is hence highly advisable that the MP/MT service provider obtains the relevant permission before it conducts any processing or indeed dissemination of the material. Other types of rights that could subsist in the content to be processed, such as cultural protection or geodata regulation is highly unlikely to influence any of the processing options, as these types of regulations normally involve material that is not relevant to MP/MT (e.g. maps or digital representations of monuments).
# MATLAB Programming/Handle/What is a handle?

A function handle is a MATLAB data type that represents a function. A typical use of function handles is to pass a function to another function.
For example, you can use function handles as input arguments to functions that evaluate mathematical expressions over a range of values. Other typical uses of function handles include:
(a) Specifying callback functions (for example, a callback that responds to a UI event or interacts with data acquisition hardware).
(b) Constructing handles to functions defined inline instead of stored in a program file (anonymous functions).
(c) Passing a function to another function (often called function functions). For example, passing a function to integration functions, such as integral.
(d) Calling local functions from outside the main function.

# MATLAB Programming/Inserting Newlines into Plot Labels

Cell arrays are the easiest way to generate new lines when using the functions xlabel, ylabel, zlabel, text, title, and gtext. However, cell arrays do not always work (see next section).
When displaying text on plots, "\n" is typically interpreted as '\' followed by 'n' instead of the newline character. To generate multiple lines, use cell arrays. This is done by separating each string line of text with a comma and enclosing all comma-separated strings in curly braces as follows.
Sometimes it is nice to put the value of a variable and a newline into the plot title. You can do this like so:
The 10 outside the single quotes is the ascii value for a newline. You don't have to use the char function, just the number will work.
The output should look like this:
