How do science and religion exist together? | The history of Western science IS the history of religion. Science started as religious philosophy- the source of most science, education, and medicine in the Western world.\n\nPeople started to notice that the world worked in logical, predictable ways, just as a logical creative God would have made it, then sought to learn about the underlying rules of the universe.\n\nSometimes, one side or the other gets full of itself (sadly, religion has most often been the offender) and starts making proclaimations and statements of doctrine that conflict with what the other side is finding to be the reality.\n\nThe classic case if Gallileo saying the Earth rotates around the sun, and they both are moving. That conflicted the the THEORY that the Earth is the center of God's creation- NOT any Biblical statement, just a dry, human theory- more of a guess, really, since it was obviously easy to set up an experiment to disprove.\n\nWhen both groups recognize the purpose and value of the other group, without getting all huffy about things that cannot be proven, they get along just great! |

Why do courtroom sketches always look the same? | What you're noticing is a technique called [chiaroscuro ](_URL_1_) applied to [Canson rendering](_URL_0_). Canson paper (a brand) is a colored sheet of paper with middle tones (usually a light brown is used for skin and wood of the courtroom). The artist then uses colored chalk and pastel and pencil to darken the shadows (scuro) and a white pencil to lighten the highlights (chiaro). This technique is super fast and very dramatic. The artist doesn't need to fill in the middle tone colors but the scene appears full even if it is only partially colored in. This is actually the reason children are given colorful "construction paper" to draw on with crayons. The idea was to build artistic skill around noticing the difference between light and dark. It gained popularity with color TV in the US. |

British victories at Wimbledon and the Tour de France are hot topics .
However new survey reveals 40per cent think they don't have meaningful conversations as a family .
We stick to lighter topics of discussion rather than world news and politics .
Average family spends just 22 minutes talking during and after the meal . | By . Sara Smyth . PUBLISHED: . 12:51 EST, 29 July 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 15:08 EST, 29 July 2013 . Its the time of the day after work and school when the family gather around the dinner table to break bread and share stories- or it used to be. New research shows that although most British families spend time discussing sporting events and TV programmes, we simply don't talk as a family as much as we used to. Events in London topped the poll as the most popular dinner table topics in recent times, including Andy Murray's Wimbledon win and the birth of Prince George. Talking point: Buzz around the birth of the Royal baby made its way to the dinner table, where families said they discussed the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince George . Success story: Uplifting topics of conversation including Andy Murray's victory at Wimbledon this Summer were more likely to be discussed by a family that world news or politics . Researchers from the Museum of London surveyed 2,000 families and discovered that they are more likely to discuss light topics like the recent heatwave, than world news or politics. Just a fifth of those surveyed said they often chat about politics. Sharon Ament, the Director of . the Museum of London said: 'London is where it’s at this summer - on . the tips of tongues and fuelling family conversations across the . country. Hasn't it been hot lately? Small talk about the recent heatwave has been on everyone's lips, according to new research . Hot topics: Chris Froome's (pictured in yellow jersey) victory at the Tour de France and England's success at the Ashes are high on the list of family conversations . 'Wimbledon success, royal baby fever and Olympics nostalgia – . what all these positive topics share is a home in the capital city. Results showed that 40per cent felt they don't have meaningful conversations as a family and nearly two thirds said the art of good conversation is a dying skill. The study showed that the average British family spends just 22 minutes talking during an after an evening meal. 1. The Royal baby . 2. Summer heat wave . 3. Andy Murray's Wimbledon win . 4. The Apprentice . 5. London 2012 Olympics . 6. State of the economy . 7. Benefit scroungers . 8. Coronation Street . 9. The Ashes . 10. Petrol prices . 11. Traffic . 12. Nelson Mandela . 13. NHS/Health . 14. Tour de France . 15. Glastonbury . 16. Football transfers . 17. X-Factor . 18. Big Brother . 19. Gay Marriage . 20. Exhange rates . The family sits down to eat together around ten times each month- less than three times a week. The rise in TV dinner and technological distractions are just some of the reasons one in four parents feel they don't know what is going on in their children's lives. Ms Ament said: 'You can understand . why light-hearted news - like sport or television - dominate our daily . lives. It can be tough for parents with kids of different ages to engage . the whole family in conversations that appeal to them all - . particularly with the hi-tech gadgets that most kids carry around every . day. 'In this age of technology many parents . are anxious about bonding with their children and really engaging them . on a regular basis.' Hectic routines, general fatigue and . ‘because the television is usually on’ were the biggest reasons cited for families not engaging in conversation. In fact, 45 per cent of meals eaten by the average British family are . done so in front of the television. A quarter of parents surveyed said they feel they have less conversation with their own children than they did with their parents did when they were young. Results showed that 42 per cent of parents worry they don’t talk enough as a family and nearly half find it hard to bond with their children at times. |

Which horse won the 2009 Epsom Derby? | Epsom Derby 2009: Sea The Stars ridden to victory by Mick Kinane - Telegraph Horse Racing Epsom Derby 2009: Sea The Stars ridden to victory by Mick Kinane Racing hailed a new superstar at Epsom on Saturday when John Oxx’s Sea The Stars became the first horse since Nashwan 20 years earlier to complete the 2000 Guineas/Derby double. Star performer: Mick Kinane claimed his third Epsom Derby win as favourite Sea the Stars romped to victory Photo: AP By Marcus Armytage, Racing Correspondent 8:10PM BST 06 Jun 2009 The revolving door to the stewards’ rooms has been clogged up with jockeys for the last two days, proving how trappy Epsom’s uncambered bends and sloping straight can be for horse and rider. However, it all went like clockwork for the 11-4 second favourite, who was not pushed to his limits to come home a length and three quarters clear of fellow Irish raider and 9-4 favourite Fame And Glory, one of the worst possible results for bookmakers. Kinane, 49, winning his third Derby and 10th British Classic, described his passage, around the inside and in fourth for most of the way, over the famous switchback track as “Plan A plus”. At no stage did he ever look like having to implement Plan B. As expected, the outcome of the 230th Derby was dominated by Irish horses. Aidan O’Brien saddled the second, third, fourth and fifth home. Only a neck, nose and shorthead separated Fame And Glory, Masterofthehorse, Rip Van Winkle and Golden Sword. Had the Derby been decided by proportional representation rather than first past the post then O’Brien would have been celebrating a landslide victory. Instead he was fined a paltry £840 for bringing his six runners into the paddock less that a minute before the bell rang for jockeys to mount and denying the television audience and racegoers the chance to view his team, which constituted half the field. For much of the morning Oxx, who wanted fast ground for his colt, was pacing around anxiously looking at the sky. But, while the weather was not entirely suitable for those who had reserved seats on the open-topped buses, the few millimetres of rain that did fall made no significant difference to the going. Related Articles Epsom rules for Magnier 31 May 2009 O’Brien’s plan to test the stamina of Sea The Stars with Golden Sword and Age of Aquarius going off in front did not work. In truth, Kinane always was travelling so well that he could have done with an even faster pace. “I thought they’d go a shade quicker,” he said, “but I don’t think they could. I always felt I was winning every step of the way. He broke so well I thought I might have to sit right in behind the pacemakers. He was just coasting, he has so much class. I knew the pacemakers had both won their trials well, so they’d take me to the furlong marker.” It was, conceded Oxx, not a difficult race to watch. “For once there were no anxious moments,” he said. “Mick was delaying [his run] for as long as possible because the horse idles a bit in front. Mick wasn’t saying much before the race. so I had to prise it from him, but he’s always had a good feeling about this horse. “He’s a terrific horse to have about the place. He’s so straightforward, always in the same form. He’s a big masculine presence. He owns the place and it’s a pleasure looking at him. “He’s a trouble-free horse, we’ve rarely had an anxious moment. Any Guineas winner you’d be worried about staying a mile and a half, especially as he coasted the whole way in the Guineas and didn’t just scramble there at the finish. “I think Michael had plenty of confidence that he’d stay. It was just dependent on whether the genes came from his sire or his dam.” For the majority of Derby winners, winning at Epsom is just halfway to proving themselves, but having already won a Guineas, Sea The Stars is already up there among the greats. He has everything, speed, stamina, a pedigree to die for and good looks. Oxx is one of racing’s traditionalists and a great supporter of the concept of the Triple Crown of Guineas, Derby and St Leger, a feat last achieved by Nijinsky in 1970. How |

What secret society was Avicenna considered to be a follower of? | A number of theories have been proposed regarding Avicenna's madhab (school of thought within Islamic jurisprudence). Medieval historian Ẓahīr al-dīn al-Bayhaqī (d. 1169) considered Avicenna to be a follower of the Brethren of Purity. On the other hand, Dimitri Gutas along with Aisha Khan and Jules J. Janssens demonstrated that Avicenna was a Sunni Hanafi. However, the 14th cenutry Shia faqih Nurullah Shushtari according to Seyyed Hossein Nasr, maintained that he was most likely a Twelver Shia. Conversely, Sharaf Khorasani, citing a rejection of an invitation of the Sunni Governor Sultan Mahmoud Ghazanavi by Avicenna to his court, believes that Avicenna was an Ismaili. Similar disagreements exist on the background of Avicenna's family, whereas some writers considered them Sunni, some more recent writers contested that they were Shia. |

The Keystone XL pipeline is priority No. 1 for the Republican U.S. Congress .
But CNN's John Sutter offers five other environmental issues worthy of attention . | (CNN)In the new Republican Congress, the first priority is a pipeline. Not jobs (not really). Not police violence (and anti-police violence). Not ISIS. It's a pipeline, the Keystone XL, which, as I'm sure you've heard, would carry crude from Canada across the United States and to the Gulf Coast, where some of it would be processed and exported. The Republican argument for the pipeline more or less fits in a single word: jobs. They cite a State Department report saying the pipeline would create 42,000 temporary jobs. But as the fact checkers at The Washington Post and elsewhere have pointed out, that's highly misleading at best. "Most of those jobs are far from the construction site, and it's hard to argue they are new," writes Glenn Kessler. "Moreover, under State's accounting, they only last for a year. For some workers, it would be a good but brief payday. In the context of the U.S. economy, the impact is barely a ripple." The low-ball estimate: Only 35 permanent jobs would be created. Yep, 35. And crazy-low oil prices make the pipeline even less of an economic boon. Democrats and environmentalists, meanwhile, have started using the now-famous pipeline as a stand-in for climate change, a dangerously myopic proposition given the scope and seriousness of that issue. Build the pipeline and it means the United States is shirking on a cleaner-energy future. Oppose it, and that's a sign that this country -- long a laggard on stabilizing the climate -- is finally making amends. I've been to the Tar Sands region of Canada, where the Keystone crude would originate. I've watched machines with wheel axles high above my head dig for oil in the dirt -- a form of strip mining, really, where the environmental costs of continuing to use fossil fuels are visible in enormous, earthen pits. It does have literal and symbolic importance. It matters. But killing Keystone has become more about politics than substance. Plenty of other issues deserve that level of attention. Instead of going on griping about all of it though (this is a new year, after all, a time for aspirations and optimism), I'd like to suggest five environmental issues that I hope will become part of a more grounded national debate in 2015. If you have other ideas, please shoot me a note on Twitter (I'm @jdsutter) or in the comments section below. 1. Climate change . This is a no-brainer. The world will meet in Paris this December to attempt to hammer out a truly international agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions and stave off the very worst effects of climate change. Some worry it may be too little too late. But news out of 2014's pre-Paris talks was surprisingly hopeful -- and included, for the first time, the possibility of all countries joining a climate pact. The talks in December, writes Andrew Simms for The Guardian, are "the most significant task ahead of us in 2015." 2. Nature thieves . There's a massive black market for rare plants and animals -- and we could be living in a world without elephants, rhinos and pangolins (yes, pangolins) if we let the illegal extraction of natural resources continue. The World Wildlife Fund estimates the scale of the wildlife trade at $10 billion annually. African elephants -- massively smart creatures, and symbols of the amazing world we inhabit -- could go extinct in a matter of decades if the trade in their ivory tusks isn't stopped. Rhino poaching is also on the rise. Asia is a major market for these illicit goods. Rhino horn and pangolin scales are used in traditional medicines, for example, and other parts are sold as luxury goods. But the United States also is a significant consumer, too. 3. The soil . I tend to hate the "Year of ____" construct, but the United Nations was smart to declare 2015 the International Year of Soils. Soil isn't something most of us think much about, but it's crucial to our food system and the health of the natural environment. ("Interstellar," anyone?) "The world will have over 9 billion people in 2050, 2 billion more than today," the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization's director-general, José Graziano da Silva, said in a prepared statement. "And food production will have to grow by 60% to feed a larger population that will also be eating better. So there is no doubt the pressure on natural resources is bound to increase. And soils are not something we can simply fix if it breaks: It can take up to one thousand years to form one centimeter of topsoil." 4. Water conservation . Water is the new oil, and industries and governments need to get smarter about protecting this vital resource from pollution and overuse. In California, a prolonged drought has pushed farmers to drill deeper water wells and pump the resource out of the ground. The earth literally is sinking in response, according to U.S. Geological Survey research. (Take a look at this photo.) And the fundamental problem is far from isolated. About 1.2 billion people live in water-scarce regions, according to the United Nations. In many places, climate change threatens to make droughts more severe. 5. Air pollution . Dealing with climate change also has a spinoff effect: It makes the air safer to breathe. Having fewer power plants is good on the lungs. If you're a person living in India or China (or Houston), that is undoubtedly welcome news. In 2012, outdoor air pollution was estimated to cause 3.7 million premature deaths. In China, the situation appears so dystopian that a businessman in Beijing was reportedly selling cans of clean air. |
