Does the Bible mention anything about a place "between" heaven and hell? | only in a parable which by definition is a fake “fictitious” story made up to teach a moral lesson.
G3850
παραβολή
parabolē
par-ab-ol-ay'
From G3846; a similitude (“parable”), that is, (symbolically) fictitious narrative (of common life conveying a moral), apoth gm or adage: - comparison, figure, parable, proverb.
Total KJV occurrences: 50
So, Jesus used the common belief that there is a purgatory, but that does not teach that purgatory is truthly a place. Those who Jesus was teaching were already under the influence of false doctrines about people having an immortal soul, and other stuff also. Anyhow, hope that helps.

What makes some people look better than others when they wear their baseball cap back to front? | The shape of their faces. The perfect hat wearing face is a square shaped face. If you have a long face, you don’t have a good hat face.
My wife and my sisters Lori and Tracy can put any old hat or cap on, anyway, forward, backwards or sideways and they always look great, like it was made for them.
With me, certain hats look good, some don’t, in fact, most don’t.
But a square shaped face is great for hats or caps.
I never wear my hat backwards. The only time I do is if I’m working in the garage or outside and have to work close at something, I’ll flip my cap backwards. If my wife sees me she always laughs. “Oh don’t you look cool!”
What is it with the backward cap anyway? I don’t get it.
I’m always thinking of new things to invent. One was a baseball cap WITH NO PEAK! You don’t even have to t...

Why do Glocks and Hi-Points look like they are rudimentary, and made for people who just want to say they own a gun? | They really are a rather plain Jane pistol.

What is the formula for sport betting? | The key to successful sports betting is a combination of several factors, including:
Knowledge: You need to have a good understanding of the sport you are betting on, including the rules, players, teams, and their strengths and weaknesses.Strategy: You need to have a solid betting strategy in place, which includes factors such as bankroll management, choosing the right types of bets, and avoiding impulsive betting.Research: You need to do your research before placing a bet. This includes analyzing data such as past performance, injuries, and the team's current form.Discipline: You need to be disciplined when it comes to betting, which means avoiding chasing losses and sticking to your strategy and betting plan.Patience: Successful sports betting requires patience. You may not win every bet, so it's important to stay focused on the long-term and not get too caught up in short-term losses.Value: Look for value in the odds. Try to find bets where the odds are higher than they should be, based on your analysis of the game.
By combining these factors, you can increase your chances of success in sports betting. However, it's important to remember that no strategy can guarantee success, and there will always be an element of luck involved in betting.

In your opinion, who is the NFL quarterback who most under performed his potential? | This is going to shock people, but not because of his ability as an NFL QB, but his expectations. He should be a 2 or 3 time champion and the face of the NFL, but something is hampering him. He has potential to be the GOAT- field vision, athleticism, arm strength, accuracy and the ability to dominate any game. Cam Newton is my answer.

Why is SRK the biggest superstar in India? | I put the question about the Bollywood superstar to a couple of my friends recently. They were taken aback - it wasn't a question they had ever considered. I hadn't either, but a new book, Desperately Seeking Shah Rukh, made me wonder.
They said he was "charming" and "relatable" as a hero, "funny", "sarcastic" and "candid" in interviews, and "unapologetic" about his pursuit of fame and money. When I pressed, they thought more deeply about the roles he played, remarking on how he was never a "macho" hero, but sensitive and head-over-heels for the women he professed to love.
"It's true! We love him for his love of women!" one of my friends declared, surprising herself with this realisation.
That is exactly what author Shrayana Bhattacharya found when she asked the same question of dozens of women, all fans of Khan.
But startlingly, these stories of his female fandom are, in effect, a tale of economic inequity.
"In telling me about when, how and why they turned to Shah Rukh, they are telling us about when, how and why the world breaks their heart," writes Ms Bhattacharya, unspooling the dreams, anxieties and mutinies that are inexorably linked to the romantic choices women make in a world that forever puts them at a disadvantage.
This is no hurried survey. It spans nearly two decades of encounters, conversations and friendships with single, married or somewhere-in-between women in northern India. They are Hindu, Muslim and Christian, happy and unhappy homemakers, content and frustrated working women, and resigned and restless working class women. They are united only by their fandom.
Khan swept into our lives in the 1990s, along with Coca-Cola and cable TV, proof of a new era, when a slew of economic reforms threw open India to the world - what we call liberalisation.
"I wanted to tell a story of those 'post-liberalisation' women and I found in Khan an unusual ally," Ms Bhattacharya says. And how.
Khan has legions of female fans
She was surveying incense stick makers in an urban slum in western India in 2006 when she found that they grew bored with the usual questions about wages. So, during a break, she started chatting to them, asking them about their favourite Bollywood hero.
"They were much more interested in talking about what delights them and what delighted them was Shah Rukh."
It became an ice-breaker in subsequent surveys and soon Ms Bhattacharya found that these women were united not just by Khan but also "an unequal labour market and their own struggles at home". And that didn't change even when she spoke to middle class or wealthy women.
Why can't more boys and men be like the Shah Rukh on screen? was a common litany. "They are constructing him - they are all making him up and they are making him up based on their reality and their aspirations," Ms Bhattacharya says.
Khan's utter devotion to the heroine signalled a man who would pay real attention, actually listen to a woman. His anxiety about his fate, a defining feature of many of his roles, made him an ideal partner for women, whose lives are rarely in their own hands. His visible vulnerability - Khan was always a messy crier, a rarity for a Bollywood man - meant he didn't shy away from showing his feelings or caring about theirs.
"I wish someone could talk to me or touch me the way he does with Kajol in [LINKED_TEXT: Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabhi_Khushi_Kabhie_Gham...], but that's never going to happen. My husband's moods and hands are so harsh," says a young Muslim garment worker.
The rich, unhappily married daughter of erstwhile royals said she wanted to bring up her sons to be "good men". Her definition: they "can cry and they make their wives feel like Shah Rukh makes us feel, safe and loved".
These are not merely gushing fangirls, blind to Khan's more problematic roles, which included stalking and violence.
Rather, theirs is a critical gaze. They didn't approve of those films and they say so.
What stayed with them wasn't the glamour or the drama - although they thoroughly enjoyed that - but the seemingly inconspicuous moments.
Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge was one of Khan's biggest hits and possibly Bollywood's most successful and beloved romance - but the mother of a fan girl was struck by something I don't think I ever noticed: "It was the first time I had seen the hero peel a carrot in a film and spend so much time with the women of the household."
To her, that was incredibly romantic. It's not that these women didn't speak of lust or sexual attraction, which was expected, but they spoke of so much more.
Khan and Kajol (L) starred in several films together
Khan was a distraction from the humdrum or a reprieve from heartbreak and daily injustices. He was the man they wanted to marry not because he was a Bollywood star, but because he was considerate. And a considerate man would let you work, save money, or at least allow your dreams to live - even if all that meant was taking you to the cinema hall to watch the next Shah Rukh-starrer.
For so many of his female fans - the bureaucrat whose mother slapped her when, as a teenager, she snuck off to the cinema to watch a Khan film; the young garment worker who had to bribe her brothers with hard-earned money to be able to catch Khan's latest film on the big screen; the domestic help who lied to her priest so she could skip church four Sundays in a row to watch Khan's films on TV - the simple joy of watching a film is a stolen freedom.
In fact, many of his poorer fans never watched a movie of his until much later in life, relying instead on songs to feed their fandom. But even that can be frowned upon.
"It's extremely difficult for women to just have fun - listen to a song or star-gaze at an actor," Ms Bhattacharya says. "When a woman says she likes an actor, she is saying she likes the way a man looks and will probably be judged for it."
These women may not be radicals, Ms Bhattacharya writes, but in seeking these indulgences, these simple joys, they rebelled. They rebelled by hiding his posters under their bed, listening and dancing to his songs, and by watching his films - and because of those rebellions, they realised what they truly wanted from life.
Khan has starred in more than 100 films in a career spanning three decades
The bureaucrat, for instance, was determined to make her own way in the world because she never again wanted to ask permission to watch a Khan film. One young woman ran away from home when a secret trip to the cinema for a Khan film led to a hurriedly arranged match with a man who was not a fan and disapproved of the fact that she was. (She has since become a flight attendant and married a man who "evoked the same feelings" as Khan).
Khan was not such a delicious promise or forbidden dream for my friends and I, whose privileged world afforded far greater freedom. Until I read this book, I never fully appreciated the quiet rebellion in my mother and aunt's sheer enjoyment of trip to the cinema nearly every Friday for the late-night show. I was taken along, oblivious to my good fortune.
But he is nevertheless a common thread that connects our disparate childhoods - one of the women said Khan taught her better English through his interviews. Well, he taught me Hindi.
Ms Bhattacharya says he is also an icon of his time - and a lot has changed since he stormed into Bollywood.
"The younger women don't want to marry Khan, they want to be him - they want his autonomy and his success."

What is the difference between Angular and AngularJS? | Key Difference of Angular and AngularJS is listed below:
What is AngularJS?
AngularJS, also known as Angular 1, was first created by Google in 2009.
It’s an open-source framework that uses HTML as its template language. It was developed to more easily create dynamic web apps through its model– view–controller (MVC) ability.
AngularJS became popular because it was significantly faster, easier to read and more expressive than other JavaScript frameworks at the time.
AngularJS is still widely used, but it peaked in 2016 when Angular 4 was released. It’s still supported as a framework, but no longer developed or updated.
What is Angular?
Angular (without the JS) is an umbrella term for Angular 2 and up (i.e. Angular 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8).
After AngularJS, Angular 2 was released in 2014 and showed significant differences from AngularJS, the main difference being the change in template language.
AngularJS team worked to create Angular 2, which they did, using TypeScript instead of HTML. Because of this change, Angular vs. AngularJS aren’t compatible, since they use distinct template languages.
Since then, releases for Angular have included Angular 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Remember that these are all updated versions of the same framework called Angular.

How do liberals propose funding their nice programs when the US owes over 20 trillion dollars in public debt with over 100 trillion dollars in unfunded liabilities and a 688 billion dollar annual federal budget deficit? | Your question is based on a ridiculous premise, and demonstrates a gross ignorance both of the nature of the US debt, its origins, its maintenance, and social spending obligations.
The “nice” liberal programs you seem to be mocking by the derisive tone of your question are Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Last time I looked, there were literally tens of millions of conservative voters benefiting from these programs, most of whom would be shocked to learn that you think we can’t afford them. Which is why, politically, whenever cutting these programs come up as the result of the latest Republican tax cut for the rich they are never mentioned by name.
Second, the size of the debt is outrageous, but only because the same conservatives who decry it are the ones responsible for it. Ronald Reagan and both Bushes cut taxes without regard to legally mandated spending obligations (that is to say, obligations passed by Congress and signed into law by past presidents, and Reagan, Bush and Bush), purposefully running deficits. Bush Jr even squandered a budget surplus bequeathed to him by Bill Clinton, then oversaw the destruction of the global economy with its accompanying collapse in tax revenues, guaranteeing that any president who followed him, Republican or Democrat, would be stuck with massive budget deficits for years to come. Why, because again, past Congresses mandated spending obligations that must be met by law.
Third, noting that the size of the debt is $20 trillion is meaningless. As a percent of GDP the debt it not the highest it has ever been, and it is partially as big as it is because of deficit spending in an economy that is far larger today, in spite of the calamity of the Bush Jr administration, than it was when Ronald Reagan took office. It is about relativity. If you owe $1 mm, I’m assuming you would have a great deal of trouble paying that back. If Bill Gates owes $100 mm, he could write a check and not even notice. Same with governments.
Finally, liberals keep explaining how we would, and do, pay for our programs. Social Security and Medicare are funded by payroll taxes, for example. How will Donald Trump fund the government if his proposed tax cuts for the wealthy, which the Brookings Institute has estimated will cost $10 to $12 trillion in increased debt over the next ten years, are enacted? How concerned will you be, dear OP, when he does?
Or does that not count, since its just more Republican deficit spending? And when Ryan/McConnell abolish Medicare and Social Security to pay for it, how will you explain the reasons why to your voters?

People say that I shouldn't give Parle G to stray dogs. So, what should I give them to eat? I feed like 4-5 of them once/twice a week, need some recommendations? | Good job mate. Stray dogs eat anything n everything. I'd say give them whatever you can buy / cook. Since the frequency is less, it's not going to have that big an impact.
Apart from biscuits, plain rice n curd, plain roti prepared at home at good options. Anything without oil n masala.

Can I see a picture of your dog? | This is Star (StarFire) which came into my Life in summer of 2016, she was my Best Friend and we went everywhere together. She was my PTSD Service Dog, she kept me safe and she won’t let anyone near me when I had flashbacks, she would lay on or sat next to me and made me hold her until I was able to think again.
Due to my health, after my shots I didn’t spend playing around as before and Star would know when I was sad or happy.
During Last Christmas we had a mission for an old Friend to retrieve his Son and bring him back to the “Green, Green Grass of home”. Afterward Star became weak then stopped eating I believe she was tired from the Fights and believe she will get over it.
She left this world on Feb 18th, 2023 at 13:05hrs while in my arms, I was looking in her eyes while she took her last breath. For the past week, I couldn’t her out of my mind. Why take her away and now left me along? It’s been hard and at times I would love to be with her then I have to stop because I can’t she is angel now but I won’t be going up for everything in my past. But I believe we will meet again when I stand outside the pearl gates. She will be on the side waiting for the gates to open but it won’t and I will see those eyes for the last time…
I’ve always told others to write down everything that’s on your mind, once completed of what you want say take it to a place which reminds you are the safes. Make a small area with rocks then Light the pages on fire and repeat the words on your mind. There is only one song which describes how I feel. Here are my words on my mind…
Now and Forever
I will always think of You.

What makes a Sith trooper a Sith? Do they actually use the force? | Nothing.
Nothing makes your average Sith Trooper a Sith.
Most Sith troopers are just your average soldiers that serve the Sith. Just like average soldiers, most did not have any connection to the force at all.
Even the force-sensitive lightsaber-wielding Sith Troopers of Darth Krayt’s Sith Empire were not Sith.
A Sith follows the Sith code and teachings, always striving for more power and knowledge through the dark side. The Sith Troopers that obeyed Darth Krayt were really none of those things. They purely existed to serve Darth Krayt to the end, having no free will and no desire for power.
So, nothing makes a Sith Trooper a Sith.

Social Sciences: | It is. It is also a lot messier than other sciences, significantly more variable and lot of ethical concerns that make impossible to get the same degree of rigor you would find in a chemistry lab. But they are still science, so long as they follow the scientific method.
That said, that inherent messiness can give cover to cranks. If a bad chemist gets some crazy idea, it is pretty easy to conclusively show they are wrong, if you disagree, ask Drs. Pons and Fleischmann. But if you have a crazy idea in psychology, sociology, or economics, you can be a pseudoscientific crank for a long time before your ideas are shot down, if they ever are.

Whats the craziest thing that's happened to you at work? | This incident happened at my previous workplace. One day, I received a call from my manager at about 12 PM in the afternoon. My shift began at 5 PM and I used to start to work at 3 PM, so I wondered why he called me at that time. When I answered his call, he told me that the Operations Manager noticed a pattern in the leaves I took. I took three Sundays off and this, supposedly, called for further investigation. My manager told me that he already gave an explanation for the three leaves I took:
I took a Sunday off because it was my birthday on that day.I took four days off because I went on a trip with my family. One of those four days happened to be a Sunday.The third leave was a Sick Leave. I happened to fall sick on a Sunday.
It was just my third month in the company. I was a new grad who took three Sundays off, so he must be up to something was what my Operations Manager must have thought. Though my manager provided the reasons why I took those leaves, the man wanted to talk to me. He called me in and I told him all the three reasons. He seemed convinced and he just said that they were doing this to find those employees who were taking leaves on weekends.
I convinced him that it was just a coincidence that all the leaves happened to be on Sundays. But, at the same time, I wondered, so what if I took the leaves on purpose? Had I taken them on purpose, only the third leave would have been a mistake from my side. Because, it would have been a lie that I was sick. But, the other two leaves? Was there any rule that said that I shouldn’t take a leave during the weekend? The HR never mentioned that.
I found this incident crazy. There I was, trying to prove that I was speaking the truth while there was no need to do that. They were my leaves and I had every right to take them whenever I wanted to.

With nothing else to go on, they decided to see if he was still there during the Battle of New York. This would allow them to get the Scepter, Cosmic Cube, and Eye of Agamoto in one trip. Very important as they couldn’t manufacture more Pym Particles.
Their logic was sound, except that Doctor Strange was just a surgeon at the time. Luckily the Sanctum Sanctorum housed the Ancient One and she had the Time Stone on her. But that was just luck.

How did you end up in the San Francisco Bay Area? What's your story? | The 1st time my path was fairly straightforward. Born and raised in SoCal (“The O.C.” was still a fairly nice place to live at the time :) In the mid-70s I originally wanted to go to Cal not because of how good the school is but because I wanted to get into the protests that were going on…except by then, that had all pretty much died down, so I went to ASU (Tempe, AZ) instead to study architecture but ended up in the engineering program (didn’t want to be a draftsman all my life :( After graduation HP hired me into the Bay Area (DSD was located where the new Apple “Spaceship” is now…also, had visited the Bay Area in the late 60s and really liked the vibe then). Had a child (first), bought a house...but could only afford SE San Jose. Was not happy about the commute nor the manager I had at HP. While playing league B-Ball for HP I met someone who had worked for HP but was now at Intel and told me Intel was hiring for a division moving to OR (my first successful “networking” event :) I had been fascinated by micros from college days and had heard lots of good stuff about OR…so, how could I not resist the temptation. Sold the house (Intel was very generous on covering costs, tax protecting and both exploration and house hunting trips) and off we went.
I was in OR for ~6 years when things went the other direction for me :( Divorce, startup failure, etc. Ended up finding a job back in the Bay Area and returned. I also figured since I was now single and had become much more outdoors focused, the Bay Area would be much better than OR (lots of days indoors from late fall to mid-spring :( When I got back, I couldn’t afford the house I sold when I moved away (I had also kept the OR home becuz a) the economy had caused housing prices to fall and made it difficult to sell and, b) I enjoyed OR so much I really believed I’d go back at some point.
Fast forward to 15 years later….was making good money, interest rates were good and the Bay Area housing market was taking one of its few “breathers”. Also, without realizing it, the OR home had increased to 3x what I had paid for it. So, I was able to jump back into the housing market (I had a few moments where I considered that what I put down on my TH in the Bay Area would have paid off the OR home 3x over….but believed the BA TH was the better investment….and I was right :)
So, while I have moments where I think about going somewhere else (I’m semi-retired and I know whatever I get for my home here will cash out my next place and leave enuf fun money to do other things), I am happy being back while I’m here……

How often are you flying with autopilot? | As an airline pilot I used the autopilot on every flight. If the auto pilot was not working, it was a “no-go” item.
Like most airline pilots, I hand-flew after takeoff until some middle altitude depending upon how I felt that day. I then would turn on the autopilot until the approach at my destination where I then disconnected the autopilot and hand-flew again to landing.
Of course even on autopilot, not everything was automatic. Altitude changes must be dialed in and a “level change’ button pushed to start the descent. Likewise route changes needed to be reprogrammed into the computer. Avoiding weather required turning a knob to turn the aircraft around a build up.
If the weather was really bad, or if maintenance needed it checked, I would use auto-land, but that was rare.

When will humans be technologically advanced enough to fight off an alien invasion? | No.
If an alien race is advance enough to transport tens or hundreds of thousands of troops across interstellar distances, it is advance enough to wipe us out completely with no loses. They can simply drag large rocks that are floating in space, and drop them on us until we are gone. Large rocks dropped from orbit will impact with the force of large nuclear weapons. There is nothing that we can do about it.

Which is the most unbiased news outlet? | I strive to be neutral and impartial, and I do not have personal opinions or biases. However, it is important to note that the concept of an entirely neutral, objective, and unbiased news source is somewhat of a myth. Every news outlet and journalist has some level of bias and subjectivity that can influence their reporting.
That said, there are some news sources that strive to be as empirically neutral, objective, and nonpartisan as possible. These news sources include:
1. Associated Press (AP)
2. Reuters
3. BBC News
4. NPR (National Public Radio)
5. PBS NewsHour
6. The Wall Street Journal
7. The New York Times
8. The Washington Post
9. USA Today
10. The Christian Science Monitor
However, it is important to keep in mind that while these sources strive to be unbiased and objective, they may still have certain biases or editorial perspectives that come through in their reporting. It is always a good idea to read from a variety of sources to get a well-rounded understanding of any given news story.

What did you think of Donald Trump before he became President? | Self-aggrandizing, incompetent, gaudy, with a poor understanding of international relations.
Self-aggrandizing: He put his own name on virtually every project he had a hand in. Lots of other developers give their projects generic names designed to sound like a pleasant place or evoke a cultural touchstone.
Incompetent: He filed bankruptcy several times. He managed to lose money even at a business (casino gambling) where most companies make money hand over fist. He eventually had such a reputation for failure that he couldn’t get a loan to start any more real estate projects, and had to resort to selling the rights to use his name on properties.
Gaudy: Some of the first media pieces to feature him showed the excess that he put into his properties, including his personal ones. Robin Leach’s Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and a segment on This Old House doing a renovation in New York City back when Bob Vila was still the host showed his obsession with gold and other supposed trappings of wealth to the exclusion of making anything comfortable or homey.
Poor understanding of international relations: He did a segment on The Oprah Winfrey Show way back in the 80s where she asked him about his political ambitions, and — while he was able to speak much more articulately and coherently than any of his public appearances in the last six years or more — he still had a very money-focused, transactional, and fundamentally wrong-headed approach to the way our alliances and mutual defense agreements work.

How much does centrifugal force generated by the earth's rotation affect an object's weight? | Earth’s gravitational pull toward itself is the centripetal force that keeps objects tied to Earth. Among the 92 natural elements that we have discovered; 2 of them escape earth’s gravitational force. These are hydrogen and helium. Hydrogen stays on earth only when it is chemically bonded with another element. Water (hydrogen oxide or oxygen hydride) is the most common form that ties up hydrogen onto earth. Helium comes out of radioactive heavy elements when they decay. Free helium also escapes from earth once it reaches the surface of the earth.
Nitrogen and Oxygen are the 2 other elements that are gases and found in free form in diatomic molecular forms (2 atoms). Nitrogen and oxygen stay in Earth’s atmosphere.
Mass is defined as the inherent quality of substances as the quantity of matter contained in it. Mass is a scalar quantity having magnitude only. Its counterpart “weight” is a vector value where mass directed in a certain direction is measured. When we assign + as centripetal force and - as centrifugal force for Earth, we see that hydrogen and helium exhibit negative weights and nitrogen and oxygen exhibit zero weight and all other elements positive weights equal to their masses.

What are some little known benefits to leasing a vehicle rather than purchasing? | Both leasing and purchasing a car offer good options for international students. However, purchasing a car may be a better idea. Even if you cannot afford to purchase the car, there are auto loans available that can help your situation out. Leasing a car often binds the lessee, and if something happens, it is often hard for the lessee to break their lease. This differs from purchasing because if you purchase the car, then down the road no longer have a use for it or don’t want it, you can sell the car instead of being stuck with it.

Are bank tellers allowed to ask why you are withdrawing a lot of cash from your account? | I would say yes. Even though it is your money. Say if you take out $500.00 every week to pay your bill’s, then out of nowhere you ask for $1.000.00 that would give the Banker a big reason to ask you why ? Security comes in and follows up with the information you gave them. If something shows up that is questionable they may close the account. Let me give you a example: this really happened to me. I was with M&T bank for a very long time. I received a call from them inquiring about my purchase I made. This was for $6.00 for a cup of coffee. According to the Banker it was out of norm for my spending habits. So you see that your account is being protected.

What are some unique facts about Telugu? | I have been learning Telugu language for some two years; Still I haven’t mastered the art and beauty of this sweet language. So, i’ll list out some of the known and unknown facts one by one:
Telugu language is a Dravidian language which ranks 3rd by the number of native speakers in India.‘Telugu’ might also be a reference to physical characteristics of the people who once lived there.
Etymology: Andhra Bhasha — the language of the Andhras is known as Telugu, or Tenugu (tene/the-n = honey, agu = is), meaning, sweet as honey. The speakers of the language call it "Telugu". The older forms of the name include Teluṅgu, Tenuṅgu and Teliṅga. The etymology of Telugu is not certain. Some historical scholars have suggested a derivation from Sanskrit triliṅgam, as in Trilinga Desa, "the country of the three lingas". Another view holds that tenugu is derived from the Tamil and Kannada word ten– "south" to mean "the people who lived in the south/southern direction" in relation to the Indo-Aryan empires. But this etymology sounds absurd and meaningless, and the word “th-e’N” (not te-n) means Honey in Tamil; So this is the most correct etymology.Early Epigraphy: Prakrit Inscriptions with some Telugu words dating back to 400 BC to 100 BC have been discovered in Bhattiprolu in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh. The English translation of one inscription reads, "gift of the slab by venerable Midikilayakha". This recent discovered inscriptions dating around 400–100 BCE actually was not a Telugu inscription.
Dated between 200 BCE - 200 CE, a Prakrit work called Gāthā Saptaśatī written by Sathavahana King Hala, Telugu words like అత్త, వాలుంకి, పీలుఅ, పోట్టం, కిలించిఅః, అద్దాఏ, భోండీ, సరఅస్స, తుప్ప, ఫలహీ, వేంట, రుంప-రంప, మడహసరిఆ, వోడసుణఓ, సాఉలీ and తీరఏ have been used.
The first inscription entirely in Telugu was made in 575 AD and was probably made by Renati Cholas, who started writing royal proclamations in Telugu instead of Sanskrit or Prakrits. Telugu developed as a poetical and literary language during the 11th century. This first written materials in the Telugu date from 575 AD and its script is derived from that of the 4th-century AD Chalukya dynasty and is related to that of the Kannada language. Telugu literature begins in the 11th century AD with a version of the Indian epic Mahabharata by the writer Nannaya.
According to the famous Japanese Historian [LINKED_TEXT: Noboru Karashima] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noboru_Karashima] who once served as the President of the Epigraphical Society of India in 1985 calculated that there are approximately 10,000+ inscriptions which exist in the Telugu language as of the year 1996 making it one of the most densely inscribed languages.
Telugu inscriptions are found in all the districts of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are also found in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and other states in India.
Bhujang Chenchiah [LINKED_TEXT: A History of Telugu Literature] [URL: https://books.google.co.in/books?id=xwXx7LB-ai4C&pg=PA17], Asian Educational Services, 1988 [Ref. [LINKED_TEXT: Telugu language - Wikiquote] [URL: https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Telugu_language]]: “The view, maintained by all Telugu grammarians and Sanskrit Philogists, that Telugu is Vikriti — that is, a language formed by the modification of Sanskrit and Prakrit. An analysis of the language as it has ...been for centuries confirms this traditional view....” But the information does not enable to say whether they used Telugu in any form. It is probable that they spoke a form of Prakrit, from which Telugu has descended. Vikriti is the Proto-Telugu/Pre-Telugu spoken around 600 BCE–100 CE.Telugu was more influenced by Sanskrit and Prakrit during this period, which corresponded to the advent of Telugu literature. Because of the continuous political dynamic empires like Mauryan, Satavanna and Pallavas have influenced their Prakrit, Sanskrit and Old Tamil on Vikriti, thus OLD TELUGU was completely formed well around 3rd century AD.Although many Sanskrit words are used in Telugu, yet the language has not its origin in Sanskrit.Pure Telugu is formed from roots, which have a close connection with the roots of the other languages of South India, e.g., Tamil, Kannada, etc.The Vijayanagar Empire gained dominance from 1336 to the late 17th century, reaching its peak during the rule of Krishnadevaraya in the 16th century, when Telugu literature experienced what is considered its Golden Age. The bulk of Telugu literature belongs to the 14th and subsequent centuries. In the beginning of the 16th century the court of King Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagar was famous for its learning, and various branches of literature were eagerly cultivated. The poet Vemana is supposed by some authorities to have lived during the 16th century.The Telugu Grammar is called vyākaranam (వ్యాకరణం). The first treatise on Telugu grammar, the Āndhra Śabda Cinṭāmaṇi, was written in Sanskrit by Nannayya, considered the first Telugu poet and translator, in the 11th century AD. Every Telugu grammatical rule is derived from Pāṇinian concepts.Sanskrit influenced Telugu of Andhra and Telangana regions for about 1500 years; however, there is evidence that suggests an older influence. During the period 1000–1100 AD, Nannaya's re-writing of the Mahābhārata in Telugu (మహాభారతము) re-established its use, and it dominated over the royal language, Sanskrit. Telugu absorbed tatsamas from Sanskrit.Modern Telugu vocabulary can be said to constitute a diglossia because the formal, standardised version of the language is either lexically Sanskrit or heavily influenced by Sanskrit, is taught in schools, and is used by the government and Hindu religious institutions.Everyday Telugu varies depending upon region and social status. The Telugu language, like many others, may be viewed as consisting of three branches, namely— (1) The language of common conversation, (2) The language of prose books, and (3) The language of Poetry. Each of these three branches differs not only in the choice of words, but also in grammatical forms of the same words.Telugu words end in vowels which many consider a mellifluous quality and thus suitable for musical expression. So most songs (Kirtanas) are in Kannada and Telugu, specifically !
Historicity of Telugu language:
Among the four major Dravidian Languages, Tamil and Telugu had independent Origins: [LINKED_TEXT: History and Development of the four Major Dravidian Languages] [URL: https://languages361.quora.com/History-and-Development-of-the-four-Major-Dravidian-Languages]Bhujang Chenchiah [LINKED_TEXT: A History of Telugu Literature] [URL: https://books.google.co.in/books?id=xwXx7LB-ai4C&pg=PA17], Asian Educational Services, 1988: ...the view, maintained by all Telugu grammarians and Sanskrit philologists, that Telugu is Vikriti — that is, a language formed by the modification of Sanskrit and Prakrit. An analysis of the language as it has ...been for centuries confirms this traditional view....But the information does not enable to say whether they used Telugu in any form. It is probable that they spoke a form of Prakrit, from which Telugu has descended. (Page-16)Steever, Sanford B. (1998), "Introduction to the Dravidian Languages", in Steever, Sanford B., The Dravidian Languages, Routledge, pp. 1–39 explains clearly why Telugu was a Prakrit in its initial phase. Even Proto-Telugu (Vikriti) is supposed to be more ancient than Magadhi prakrit.
Is Telugu, a Dravidian or Indo-aryan language ?
Telugu language in its initial phase Proto-Telugu (Vikriti) was spoken in Asaka Jannapadha. And around 400 BCE after the fall of Asaka Jannaphada, Andhra empire was established under Satavannas (vassals of Mauryan Empire) who spoke Maharastri Prakrit. And after the fall of Mauryan empire, Satavannas are well known for having established trade links with north and south. They’re credited for establishing the vedic culture to the South. During these phases of History, Vikriti and other Prakrits influence over Dravidian languages gave Telugu, a high balanced Dravidian and Indo-aryan substratum. That is the reason why Telugu is still debated about its linguistic family identity. Telugu may be a Dravida bhasha or Arya bhasha (neither dravidian nor indo-aryan, but never anyone). Linguistically, Telugu is said to split from Proto-Dravidian at first. I would say Tamil is both phonologically and morphologically more close to Proto-Dravidian while, Telugu is morphologically closer to Proto-Dravidian. In terms of number of contrasting sounds, Tamil retains a considerable amount of Proto-Dravidian cognates and phonological system, while Telugu retains Proto-Dravidian gender system alone. Because of these similarities in morphological features, Telugu is often confused to be emerged from Tamil. But anyway Historical Linguistics says that Telugu in its initial phase was Prakrit which in due course of time evolved as a Dravida bhasha. That is the reason why early Epigraphic records found in Telangana and Andra are in Prakrit. Telugu is a continuation of Prakrit, during its historic phases unlike Tamil country, Telugu land suffered from Numerous invasions. Because of all these, Telugu language got distanced away from its Prakritic legacy. Other Dravidian languages may also have influenced Telugu language during its historic phases.
Vedic basha → Vikriti basha (Pre-Proto-Telugu)→ Maharastri prakrit (Proto-Telugu) → Old Telugu → Middle Telugu → Modern Telugu.

He is the author of ‘Amuktamalyada’, one of the best Pancha Kavyas or five classic works.Telugu is an inflected language (modifying root words for case, number, and tense). And Telugu has 3 genders: Male, Female and Neuter.Telugu language has a general S-O-V order.Telugu pronouns include personal pronouns, indefinite pronouns, relative pronouns and reciprocal or reflexive pronouns.Telugu language is written from left to right ( → ) and consists of sequences of simple and/or complex characters.The Telugu script consists of 60 symbols – 16 vowels, 3 vowel modifiers, and 41 consonants.

Why is there so little trash on the streets of Vancouver, British Columbia, relative to any other city, such as San Francisco? | San Francisco is more “compact” than other cities with a host of problems already alluded to. If not to concerned about paying bus fare, one isn’t too concerned about bringing food on said bus, and then won’t be concerned about throwing the wrapper out of the window (just saw it the other day on the 19 route). That said, I see sidewalk washing in San Francisco as well as other parts of built up America (other cities and the dense parts of towns). Up to the Boomer generation (and part of Gen X), the cities were left to rot while the burbs were sought after. No longer.
Vancouver B.C. is nice but it’s not a panacea. Still see drunks waiting by the liquor store waiting to score (actually Surrey a burb of Vancouver). Parts have been rebuilt into high rises too. Taking some cityscape pictures, there’s some grit on the sidewalks if looking closely enough. That said, think Canadians are more civic minded then their neighbors to the South.

What facts about Mumbai would people not believe unless they come to Mumbai? | Its nothing like they show in “Wake up Sid”.No,seriously its much more than that.
Finding a place to live in mumbai is going to be one hell of a task.Rents are super high and please dont ask for a balcony or separate washrooms(they almost dont exist in Mumbai).I pay 10k for one small room (luckily i found a single occupancy,people who live in Mumbai know what its like to find a single occupancy room :P)Total rent we pay is 27k for 1.5 bhk (yes,Mumbai has concept of 1.5,2.5,3.5 bhk.I personally never heard of it before I moved here.
Then,comes Travelling.Huh,don’t ask about it, its like a challenge.Yes,we have locals running all over the city.But,first see this :
Yeah,this is everday scene here.And this :
Okay,now you might be thinking then why not travel by an auto or cab.Yes, i agree its a better option.But be ready to wait 1.5 hours in traffic.My home to offce distance is hardly 1.5 km but i almost spend 45 mins,sometimes even 1 hr.Becoz road is jammed most of the time.Here,this picture summarizes it all :
And, when it rains this is the condition here : People have to stay back in their offices sometimes becoz the roads are flooded so badly.
Sometimes it takes 6–7 hrs to reach home during rains.
But,this city is a provider. So,when it comes to food you have many options :We have Dabbawala’s,these people travel from one end of city to another just to provide you that home made food you crave for !Yes,and its super delicious,I am very sure everyone is thankful to them from the core of their hearts for all their efforts.They almost deliver 200,000 dabbas everyday ! Now,that’s a mindblowing number !See this :
And,how can I forget Mumbai ka vadapav - Rs 10,only.Looks,delicious isn’t.You can find it in every nook and corner of city.
I don’t know about you,but i can’t resist myself from having this delicious vada pav with chai right now because its raining here!
EDIT 1: Some people found these points bit disturbing and was kinda scared to move to Mumbai.
To them,I just want to tell that which city doesn’t have problems or challenges.
But,you know what makes any city special - PEOPLE.And,trust me I found best people here.They are always ready to offer you help.Always.
And,once who start living here you are definetly gonna love it.And, thats why its said - “Once a Mumbaikar,Always a Mumbaikar”.
I myself come from Allahabad,Done college from Belgaum,both are small cities,so in the beginning it was tough adjusting in Mumbai,but now I just love Mumbai.This city made me independent . It has taught me that challenges only make your journey more interesting and they make you a patient human being.
Also,For a girl from safety purpose Mumbai is safe.I So,many women travel alone at night here.I have travelled alone so many times around 12 at night to catch train or flight.I doubt if I can do that in my own city.
Morever,above facts are just stated in adherence to the question asked.
PS : To all the people,who are suggesting me to walk,I just want to tell you that I was just trying to “quote an example” here to explain a particular condition.I prefer walking only when travelling to office.But,I have my seniors who come down from Borivali and all - they spend almost 1.5 to 2 hrs in traffic as distance for them is too much.They can’t walk right.
And,Many Thanks to people who upvoted my answer :) Thankyou so much :)
Keep Smiling !

Should we be disrespectful to former presidents if we disagree with them politically? US District Judge Moxila Upadhyaya referred to Donald Trump as “Mr. Trump” and not “ Mr. President”. | What’s the problem? Joe Biden is President. There’s only 1 President of the United States & Ex-Presidents that exist! mr. trump falls into the ex category! The question is does he deserve the same respect as other Ex Presidents? I leave that up to the personal opinion of each individual. I personally have ZERO respect for him! He’s wronged far too many people in his lifetime!

What is the best way to deep fry chicken breasts? | My kid has been training with all sorts of different chefs the world over now for over 5 years. It’s been one heck of an adventure for him, and he’s picked up quite a few recipes, including one when he was working in Vegas…..
PANKO CHICKEN SCHNITZEL
(from Allrecipes)
There’s loads of ways to deep fry a chicken, but there’s just something about the classics that you always want to come back to. And more importantly, when flattening out the chicken breast before breading, it’s a great way of stress release as well. (Honest! Beating that meat hard for 10 minutes does wonders for the circulation. :P)
Most importantly… it’s EASY. You’ll enjoy this in no time, and have a really tender chicken schnitzel to um-pah-pah to in no time!
Panko-Coated Chicken Schnitzel by French Laundry chef Thomas Keller
[LINKED_TEXT: [1]] [URL: #aUOGP](from Food & Wine
[LINKED_TEXT: [2]] [URL: #tIrdc]) Oh, and why Panko and not normal bread crumbs? You’ll get a lighter texture and taste to the breading, and it’s tasty!
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup all-purpose flour3 eggs, beaten2 cups panko4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 6 ounces each), butterflied and pounded 1/4-inch-thickKosher salt and freshly ground pepper1/2 cup canola oil6 tablespoons butter2 teaspoons capers2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice1 tablespoon chopped parsley
INSTRUCTIONS
(from YouTube - Richard Wagner’s “Der Ring des Nibelungen”)
Hammer that Chicken breast down to about 1/2″ thickness. Remember, give it all it’s worth and feel free to sing from Richard Wagner’s “Der Ring des Nibelungen” to get you into the spirit of things.[Set the flour, eggs and panko in three separate shallow bowls. Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the eggs and coat thoroughly with the panko, pressing lightly to adhere.][In each of 2 large skillets, heat 1/4 cup of canola oil. Add the chicken and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until golden and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt, then transfer to plate.][Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter and cook over moderately high heat until browned and nutty, about 4 minutes. Stir in the capers, lemon juice and parsley; spoon over the chicken and serve.][LINKED_TEXT: [3]] [URL: #VaYTu]

Why don’t carbon monoxide detectors alert to natural gas leaks, when gas leaks can cause carbon monoxide poisoning? | Your logic and way of thinking is kind of screwed up.. It is like thinking yourself as the natural gas, and the natural gas can turn into carbon monoxide like you becoming a criminal… Then the carbon monoxide monitors are the cops, Why are the cops are not sounding an alert and arrest you?
Following your logical reasoning, Since you have the potential and can become a criminal, the cops should arrest you now!!
Different sensors are used to detect different types of gas. If you have a carbon monoxide detector why would you expect it to sound an alert if there is No carbon monoxide present in the air?
Carbon monoxide is the result of incomplete combustion of the natural gas. If your natural gas burner is not properly burning its fuel, then you need to have it fix as it will create carbon monoxide that can kill you!
Carbon monoxide detectors is not going to sound an alert when carbon monoxide is NOT present… It will be a false alarm if it does!
You need to get the proper gas detector to match the gas ..

What are the benefits of recumbent exercise bikes? | Exercise bike is a typical aerobic fitness equipment that simulates outdoor sports. It can achieve the effect of fitness by adjusting the intensity during exercise. Most people only know that riding an exercise bike can exercise the body. What benefits can a specific exercise bike bring us? Will it bring some bad effects?
Benefits of riding an exercise bike
Exercise leg muscles
Through the continuous riding action of the exercise bike, exercises of different intensities and resistances, the leg muscles can be effectively exercised, and the strength and endurance of the legs can be improved.
Improve joint mobility
When riding an exercise bike, you will continue to pedal, and due to the traction of the gluteus maximus and the biceps femoris at the back of the thigh, the hip, knee, and ankle joints can be fully moved and improved Flexibility of joints. Therefore, the exercise bike is also suitable for middle-aged and elderly people and people with walking disabilities to exercise.
Prevent heart disease
Riding an exercise bike can help promote the blood circulation of the body, and the blood flow is more unblocked, so that the capillary tissue can be further strengthened, thereby strengthening the blood vessels and preventing heart disease.
Exercise cardiopulmonary function
Riding an exercise bike can exercise visceral endurance and is conducive to expanding the heart. During riding, the lower limbs have a lot of blood supply, and the heart rate changes will change with the speed of the pedaling action. Long-term exercise can help enhance myocardial contractility. Enhance the elasticity of the blood vessel wall, so as to improve the effect of heart and lung function.
Slimming
Riding an exercise bike is a kind of aerobic metabolic exercise. Through continuous cycling, you can burn calories and burn excess body fat while exercising.
Relieve stress
For those white-collar workers who do not have a lot of time to exercise, riding an exercise bike can easily exercise in their free time. Not only can they exercise, but they can also relax and release stress during cycling.
Convenient to do other things
When riding an exercise bike, there is no hot music like spinning bikes. You can choose to read, chat or watch TV while riding.
I would like to recommend that every fitness person must combine music in fitness. They will reduce our fatigue. I use Naenka’s bone conduction headphones myself.

Did Josef Mengele have a good side? | I think for someone like him. His evil completely wipes out any good he does. There is nothing that annoys me more than hearing of someone in court with multiple criminal records or a first timer, whom has left victims terrified and their legal team argue on hard upbringing to excuse their behaviour and get a lighter sentence. Asker, Image you are a Jewish Businesswoman in the 1950’s that survived the Holocaust and before you is a nazi in court. The legal team then goes this was a family man, he loved his wife and kids and had personal problems.
As a victim I am sure you would feel cheated. With someone like him our attention must remain on his victims and the evil he done.

What did you think of Donald Trump before he became President? | I didn't really. I just knew his name was synonymous with wealth that is it. I don't pay a huge amount of attention to popular people except for some actors in movies I liked.

Why Italian marble is best for flooring? | If you’re looking to give a special touch or reinvent your new home or existing space, the first thing to focus on is the flooring of the house. The space you walk on transforms the look and feel of an interior, whether elevating your interior or dulling it down. And it’s well known that the right choice to make is to choose Italian marble tiles for flooring.
Italian marble is widely appreciated for its high luster and the ability to impart visual appeal to the area where it is used. It is quarried in Italy and is now easily available in India as well.
Italian marble is considered to be superior by many due to its purity, durability, and beautiful white color. ... Another reason that Italian marble is thought to be superior comes simply from the rich stone working heritage of Italy. They were the first to streamline and perfect quarrying methods still used today.

What is the most horrible thing you have seen while in a mental hospital? | I could say the woman who was dragged out her room covered in blood, she made a good attempted to cut her wrists with a plastic shard from a pen. Was unnerving but not the worst personally imo.
What caused the most concern was a young male, I assume around 18 or 19 years old. He was very clearly psychotic but happy in his psychotic delusional self, dancing on tables, happily talking to someone who wasn’t actually there, also believing people such as myself was his ex gf. Anyways his fully able and delusional, he had a staff member with him at all times.
Here’s the scary bit, next day I see him sat at a table drooling, not able anymore and being spoon fed by staff. A complete zombie that couldn’t even lift a spoon let alone talk. If you’ve seen one flew over the cuckoo’s nest, well he was jack Nicholson. It was sad as he was so young, also concerning that your only a staff members decisions away from having the same drug pumped into you.

Why is there no effective law against bullying considering its effects on the victim? | Because bullying is concerned with non-quantifiable effects. If A says “If I see you around here again I’m gonna beat the crap out of you!” that is a threat of violence and is illegal now. No additional law required.
Nasty looks and threatening behavior aren’t so easily compared to a legal definition. What one person would shrug off as bad manners or evidence of generic stupidity might send another person into near hysteria. How do you make a law to abridge freedom of speech and actions without impacting everyone’s personal freedom? In order to protect the sensitive individual, where, in the range from immune to other’s opinions and remarks to hypersensitive, do you set the bar? How do you establish standards that can be proven/disproven to have been violated in court?
To be effective the law must be enforced. Short of universal monitoring or reading minds, how can you determine if an incident was a misinterpretation by the victim or a deliberate act by the aggressor? I know a few people that can intimidate without realizing it, either by physical size, force of personality or even the way they dress. Police do it all the time with or without realizing how intimidating they are. How can you make a law to prevent that? Shoot everyone over 5′7″, require everyone to dress the same and forbid any conversation between people without written consent?
That may sound facetious, but think about the problems and the stresses put on all people by the (gradually fading, that Deity) standards of correct speak that we all have been dealing with for the last few decades, especially in the workplace.
Freedom of speech MUST include the freedom to ignore those we don’t agree with, or even consider idiots, in a polite but form way. Everyone develops their own technique.

What is the best LMS for online learning? | School, colleges and top universities are adopting Learning/Academic Management System platforms for providing online classes to their students.
Education technology providers are introducing LMS/AMS softwares to cater to the needs of education sector.
Linways Technologies is a name worth mentioning here. Linways Technologies provides highly innovative and world class LMS platforms that ensures uninterrupted learning and effective educational management.
Contact Linways Technologies on +91 9072321110 for more info and a totally free demonstration.
Explore the limitless possibilities of online learning in higher education using Linways AMS
How Linways AMS can be used to conduct online classes amidst the imminent CoViD19 crisis.
Online learning has been a buzzword among the academic community. We are facing a global pandemic, and social distancing is crucial to contain the infection from spreading. Schools, colleges and universities are temporarily closing to avoid the spread of Covid19, and promoting online learning. Amidst these tough times, Linways stands with the academic community, and we are determined to support teachers and students all across the globe to survive, and come together stronger than ever.
Online education is what many expert academicians see for the future of education. Teachers, across domains, vouch for the immense potential it holds in terms of quality assurance and student management.
Linways, of course, being at the forefront of the edtech industry has understood that potential, and had our Academic Management System developed with it in mind. Linways has always been about improving the way we learn.
Since the product first came to market, we’ve had the fortune to interact with thousands of teachers and students, understand on first-hand how a higher educational institution works, and what are the pain points that come up in managing such an institution
We have since adapted to the needs of higher educational institutions, and built unique and intelligent workflows for catering quality online education.
So Linways caters to the top-to-bottom management requirements of a higher educational institution with efficient workflows and reduced workloads. Teaching with Linways is easy, and quality in academics is assured every step along the way.
With online learning coerced with intelligent student/academic management, teachers can employ advanced teaching models like the blended learning and flipped classroom.
Not to mention the reduced workload that leaves room for continuous improvement and meaningful feedback.
Here how online learning with Linways AMS works.
The teacher creates a subject community.
Within the platform, the teacher can see his/her batches or the batches he/she teaches.
It’s as if each subject is a community and the teacher is a moderator that leads that community. Clicking on a batch is the equivalent of entering the classroom where you can see the entire batch with details readily available including attendance data, performance reports, weak student identification, and assignments.
With such an illustrious overview, and access to meaningful data, the teacher can take informed decisions about where to take the class next, or which student needs special care.
The Lesson planner
As you’d probably know, planning the curriculum is the first step of the process. Our lesson planner helps teachers to create a well-defined curriculum before the classes begin. The proposed plan is available in the platform, which can be used to strategize and adapt to the unique student trends and academic/industry requirements. Then as we move on, there’ the daily progress can be tracked through the actual plan, which teachers can interact with. The actual plan reflects the plans teachers have made earlier in the lesson planner.
You can also add course materials along with the course plan that’s relevant to the topics.
Since there’s always room for adaptation and improvement, the teacher can mark if one particular topic was covered as planned, or that it had to be extended to longer hours. It’s very easy to manage the actual plan in Linways. There’s a calendar which gives you a bird’s eye view of your plans for the curriculum, and you can simply drag and drop the topics across the calendar to mark how it was done in real-time. This feature also comes with additional functions such as marking the topics as fully covered, partially covered etc.
There’s a dedicated cloud space to store all your reports in the system. Or you can integrate your ‘google drive’ or ‘onecloud’ with it so that you can access them anywhere, anytime. The teacher can add his/her lectures or links to other content that they think is relevant in the system, and decide who to share it with.
So the class can then access it and watch it over and over till they are familiar with the concept. Since we treat the classroom ecosystem as a community, there’s a shared space for the whole class to come together and conduct discussions. The teacher can also give individual students their feedback on their performance.
Students can access their community from their login too.
The students can also access the course commodities. And here’s a Lesson planner view from the student login:
The students can know about completion of the topics from their account and they can also download the course content based on the topics.
The assessment
Assessment is one of the most important elements in online learning. Linways AMS lets you take control of your student’s assessment not just to assign grades, but to be able to draw conclusions which you can use later for improvement.
Students can submit their assignments online, and the teacher can view them, assess them, download them, and evaluate them from the platform itself.
and online exams can be conducted. The results can be published online too.
Using our message box, teachers can share their video conference links with their students like the ZOOM, Google Hangouts or Skype, so that the whole classroom can come online at the same time for lectures and discussions
The biggest perk of all these being integrated into one whole system is the accessibility. There’s no need to store data manually, or search through filing cabinets and folders to create a specific report that you direly need when there’s no time. It’s all available online, all the time.
Our academic management system also helps the teacher to ensure that the core academic quality is well maintained along with scope for continuous improvement.

Is Costco dog food good? | Kirkland is made by Diamond and is essentially their Diamond “naturals” which is on par with the best foods you can get without going grain-free. Kirkland Grain-Free Naturals is purportedly identical to another well-known grain-free brand (though I don’t recall which one it is, I think maybe Canidae? Or at least it used to be).
If you are looking for a conventional kibble, then Kirkland is going to be a good quality brand and cost a lot less for that quality and quantity. Their grain-free is probably middle of the pack from the reviews I have read.

Should Christians stop giving their money to Televangelists'? | An empathetic Yes! Today’s televangelists prey upon the weak, suffering, poor, and biblically illiterate in order to get their money to finance their wealthy and decadent lifestyles. Most of them are not born again Christians indwelt by God’s Holy Spirit, do not have a personal relationship with Him, and do not love Him. They claim to speak for Christ but do not know Him. God wants nothing to do with these people and will hold them accountable for their arrogance, idolatry, and sinful pride. They are an embarrassment to God and to all true Christian’s everywhere.

Do childhood vaccinations cause autism? My daughter in law is refusing to vaccinate her children based on this belief. | Autism Spectrum Disorder is the result of different brain development in a fetus. Childhood vaccinations happen to children, that is, LONG after ASD happens.
There are two ways, then, that ASD could be the result of a childhood vaccination: one would be, and there is zero evidence that this is the case, but at least it’s POSSIBLE, if somehow the mother or father getting vaccinated causes the baby to develop differently. Not only is there no evidence that this is the case, but ASD has been happening since long before vaccination was invented, so it’s not possible that this is the only cause, and billions of people have been born since vaccinations became widespread so it can’t always cause this. But it’s not strictly speaking impossible. This would mean your DIL’s kids would be protected from having a slightly larger but still very small chance of having kids on the Spectrum. That would, again be the utmost MOST that it could concievably mean. It cannot, in any way, have anything to do with her kids being on the spectrum or not.
Two ways? Oh, if the vaccination time travels backwards and affects the child BEFORE it’s born.
