News Channel 3's Andy Wise Ends up On HIS Side!
Man, I leave town early for a weekend in Nashville and it turns out I missed all of the fireworks in Memphis. It turns out that WREG's Andy Wise whose aggressive reporting and bulldog tactics helped establish the station's "On-Your-Side" slogan, was, according to Wise and witnesses, attacked by a man they were covering as part of a story. The video (both edited and raw)
shows some quick movement and Wise grabbing the guy and both falling to the ground. The video proves Wise can physically hold on to someone as doggedly as he can pursue a lead! And at last word, Wise plans to file simple assault charges against the guy who reportedly head-butted Wise and spit on him. Somewhere along the way, Wise needed some stitches to close a wound to the head.
I was asked in a private email by a person who identified himself as a journalism major where I thought Andy Wise was justified in grabbing the guy after the guy supposedly asked the news crew to leave him along and then attacked Andy. Well, I've never been much for the in-your-face journalism that was first made popular by CBS' 60-Minutes Mike Wallace. For a long time some folks have followed Mr. Wallace's lead because they can sometimes get some good sound or good video of the "perp" but it also makes for dramatic TV as the camera chases someone down the street or where ever. The folks who flee look guilty whether they are or not (or at least look like they have something to hide). Also, the viewers watch, waiting to see if the perp will turn and attempt to "clean the clock" of the person chasing them. I can't tell you the number of times while working at WREG that someone told me that at some point, someone, somewhere was going to take Andy down and they wanted to see the video when it happened. Nc3 is quite willing to accommodate viewers as they have posted not only the edited reports of A-W on their website, they've posted the raw video as well. If the video hasn't been blasted into a promo yet, then expect it to be there soon enough.
I was also asked how I would have responded if someone had attacked me. First, I have to admit that if I had been warned a couple of times by the perp and I persisted, then I shouldn't be surprised if I got attacked. However, if I had received NO warning and the person attacked me, I'm afraid the perp probably would be able to file assault charges against ME because I'd probably attempt to inflict a little payback. The perp would be able to tell a judge that I wasn't On His Side, I was ON HIS BACK, making him eat cement or whatever else was handy. Of course, that would probably only serve to make the perp angry and then he would proceed to kick my butt into oblivion. But that is a theoretical situation as I've never been in that situation. I wasn't in Andy's shoes and never hope to be. I would venture a guess that this attack and others that have happened against reporters in the past year will give some pause to think about their actions in covering the news and to give News Directors pause to issue policies on aggressive coverage. Hey it makes for great TV until some yahoo pulls a gun and shoots a reporter or videographer. Then it's too late.

from the looks of the video, Andy grabbed dude first for stepping on his glasses. I never saw the perp head-butting Andy and immediately he started saying "I didn't do nothing…he attacked me!"
Don't know about this one. Maybe somebody went looking for a fight.

I don't understand how the video got so chopped up,I guess the security cam showed the initial attack on Andy Wise and he got whipped pretty bad,then the station Video showed Andy in action when the guy tried to throw something over the fence .it fell to the sidewalk and he stomped it.Andy then wrestled him to the ground.
Im sure Jerry Lawler called Andy and gave him a thumbs up.

Andy — "no" means NO. I've always admired your pluck, but sometimes, you gotta let people go. I told some Channel 3 people over the weekend that now they've got a "Watchdog" (Matthews), a "bulldog" (Andy)… and now they need a guard dog! Thanks folks, I'm here all week!
On other note, I'm going to post a rather long reply here to someone who responded to something I said in the last post. I'm posting here and there just in case that person doesn't go back to the previous post. Apologies about the length.
I wanted to make sure "get off of it" knows that I've taken notice of their point of view.
Yes, I'm a lefty from way back, and a firm believer in helping those who can't help themselves… but I think there are a couple of holes in your argument.
The media has a responsibility of covering ALL the problems of society — because people can't (or won't) take the time to learn about it themselves. Covering crime for crime's sake is the laziest move in the news business — all you have to do is listen to a police scanner and send a crew to follow the blue lights. And all you learn is something bad happened today. And you learn it at the expense of not learning something potentially more important to society at large — because the crews are chasing cops all over town.
And you admit that "some is true" when I point out the sorry state of the educational system and lack of career path jobs in some parts of the Greater Memphis metroplex. All our media points to the benefit of getting something for nothing. Want to make millions? Play the lottery for $1. Want to be a big star? Go on "American Idol" and withstand Simon's criticism.
TV, music & movies all teach the lessons of getting rich quick and fighting the "system" to get ahead. If you don't have positive influences to counter-balance all that crap — you're going to end up thinking that only chumps work minimum wage jobs — and you're not going to want to go out like that. Yes, for those of us who have learned the value of hard work and responsibility, it seems pretty stupid — even lazy — but if you don't know any better, you're going to see the value in taking the path of least resistance — and bigger payoff.
Yes, you admire someone who picked themselves up to bust their butt for $24K — but it society-at-large drums it into impressionable minds that there are simpler ways to make more money — it's a disservice to them — and the rest of us to dismiss it as simple laziness.
More importantly; don't you think it's a waste of your tax dollars that the city schools spends more per student than just about anywhere else in the state, but still does such a generally poor job? Don't you want the media shining a light on that? Shouldn't our at-risk youth be learning the value of hard work in school — just in case they're not learning it at home? Personally, I get a little cheesed-off when I think of the school board tossing my money away without finding better ways to get knowledge into the heads of those kids.
And I don't think the driver you know wants to do that for long. There has to be an effort to create career paths in this town — not just "jobs." I worked in fast food for during my college years. While I'm not ashamed of the work — it sure wasn't something I wanted to do any longer than I had to. When you hear the mayor boast about the economic development he's brought to the area, and all the jobs the various candidates for his office and city council are promising to bring — don't you want the media to find out just what the heck they're talking about?
I like hard-working people better than folks who use government support as a crutch. But I want people in the media to be hard-working. So should you "get off of it," so should you.

Mediaverse did a much better job reporting this than WREG.
Thanks Alot Joe

I'm sorry, this isn't about helping the underserved. This is about station positioning. "We'll fight for your rights" is a load of BS. It's a mindless stunt. These reports are nothing more than on-air promotion, and stories that become the news have no value.
C'mon Andy! When are you going to join the ranks of your fellow crusaders by allowing yourself to be shot by a tazer ? I hear major market news directors love that kind of stuff! Let's see what Magid research shows!
September 25, 2007 at 9:07 pm
agree w/ Bob. If Andy was REEALLLLYYY just following dude to see if he drove off behind the wheel of a car, he wouldn't have been running down the street after him. Dude also wouldn't have turned around unless Andy yelled or otherwise, let him know he was trying to catch him.
this was about making the news, not reporting it.
and i were dude, I'd file stalking charges on mr. wise and wreg

This can be solved easily with manufacturing returning in abundance to our shores. It may result in higher prices for goods, however, quality is the benchmark we got rid of for quantity. i.e. China, India, etc.
South Africa this week will take some initial steps to unseat the US dollar as the preferred worldwide currency for trade and investment in emerging economies.
Thus the nation is expected to become party to endorsing the Chinese currency, the renminbi, as the currency of trade in emerging markets.
This means getting a renminbi-denominated bank account, in addition to a dollar account, could be an advantage for African businesses that seek to do business in the emerging markets.
The move is set to challenge the supremacy of the US dollar. This, experts say, is the latest salvo in the greatest worldwide currency war since the 1930s.
In the '30s, several nations competitively devalued their currencies to give their domestic economies an advantage over others.
And this led to a worldwide decline in overall trade volumes at the time.
The north will be pitted against the entire south in a historic competitive currency battle — whose terrain has moved to the Indian capital, New Dehli — where the Brics (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) nations will assemble next week.
China seeks to find new markets for its currency and to lobby to internationalise it throughout the Brics states.
For China this is not a new game. In 2009 senior Chinese banking officials issued a statement that the international monetary system was flawed owing to an unhealthy dependence on the US dollar, and they called for a "super-sovereign" international reserve currency.
Experts say Beijing's first step is to internationalise its currency (by expanding its reach beyond China), liberalise it (to allow its value to be determined by the market instead of actively managing it as they currently do), and then make it a reserve currency for many nations in the developing world.
Africa's largest bank, Standard Bank, says in a research document: "We expect at least $100 billion (about 768 billion rand) in Sino-African trade — more than the total bilateral trade between China and Africa in 2010 — to be settled in the renminbi by 2015."
The bank anticipates that the use of the renminbi will lower transaction costs in Africa, thus lowering the barriers to doing business.
It also says that the Chinese will be more successful in transacting in renminbi in Africa than anywhere else because most currencies are weak and somewhat localised.

SJM Holdings is clinging onto its place at the top of Macau's gaming industry. The figures quoted by Macau Business show the firm's market share decreased to 25 percent in April – down from 27 percent the previous month. It means the strong-looking Galaxy Entertainment Group gained a percentage point to take it to 21 percent. Sands China followed the opening of Sands Cotai Central by rising from 17 percent to 18 percent and it will be a while longer until we can fully gauge the success of the new resort. Melco Crown held on to fourth place with a narrow lead over Wynn Macau as both companies skittered around the 13 to 14 percent mark. MGM China still ranks bottom of the pile with 10 percent – still 10 percent of MOP25 billion is a hell of a lot of loot.
Melco Crown Entertainment has announced that its first quarter results release will take place next week. The company will file them with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9 at 8:30 a.m. ET.
Analysts are upbeat in regard to the chances of Wynn Macau after the company announced approval for its latest casino business. Deutsche Bank analyst Carlo Santarelli is quoted by the Las Vegas Review-Journal as stating: "We believe Wynn Cotai can generate stabilized 2017 (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of $675 million."
Allowing Wynn to set up in Cotai also led Santarelli to describe the situation of MGM and SJM as "precarious" due to the fact that Macau is only going to award one other land grant this year. Santarelli added: "MGM is farther along with respect to development plans, likely giving them a light edge".

America braces for holiday clash of tech giants• The RawStory.com
It's beginning to look a lot like a big season in the United States for mobile gadgets, with the still-rumored launch by Apple in September of a new iPhone, expected to ignite fresh growth in the smartphone market in the US and worldwide.
Apple is also widely expected to unveil a new tablet computer that will be a smaller version of the hot-selling iPad.
But other big tech firms are not sitting idle.
Microsoft is launching its new Surface tablet in late October, and will be pushing hard to sell Windows-powered smartphones. Google has already launched its own branded tablet and smartphone selling alongside other devices powered by its Android system from makers including Samsung.
And many analysts expect Amazon to unveil at least one updated model of its Kindle Fire tablet computer at a news conference September 6.
"This season is going to be exciting," said Rob Enderle, a technology analyst and consultant with the Enderle Group.

It's finally here. A new groundbreaking study on BBL from Stanford University reveals…Get the full story here: http://foreveryoungbbl.com/
Sciton's Forever Young BBL treatment also known as IPL, Photo-Rejuvenation or Photo-Facial is an innovative technology that sets new standards for skin conditions associated with aging, active life-styles and sun damage. BBL energy allows your treatment provider to precisely treat age and sun spots, small facial veins and many other skin conditions.
The light energy delivered by the BBL will gently heat the upper layers of your skin (epidermis). The heat absorbed by the targeted areas will stimulate your skin cells to regenerate new collagen. This process will restore your skin to its natural beauty, blending its natural colours and making it smoother, vibrant and younger looking. In addition, the photo-thermal energy will eliminate fine vessels that cause redness and reduce unwanted melanin that produces pigmented lesions (brown spots).
BBL treats the following skin conditions: Pigmented Lesions (freckles, age spots), Vascular Lesions (small red blood vessels), Acne, Uneven Skin Texture, Enlarged Pores and Fine Lines and Wrinkles. This is a noninvasive and gentle procedure with virtually no downtime. In most cases, you are able to return to work, wear make-up, and resume most of your activities immediately.
You may experience some mild redness that should resolve within a few hours post treatment. For some pigmented lesions, you will see a darkening of the treated spots followed by fading and flaking off at a later stage. Your treated skin will feel smoother, fine lines and pores will be less noticeable, and sunspots, uneven pigmentation and redness will fade. Results depend on your condition, the number of treatments, and the areas treated.
The most common areas treated with BBL are those most often exposed to the damaging effects of sunlight. The most popular treatments are on the face, neck, back of the hands, chest and shoulders.

Lay Leaves Lasting Legacy
Within the last year not one, but two Minnesota jurists have stepped down after long service and significant contributions to the jurisprudence of the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals. Here we remember and salute the contributions of the late Judge Donald Lay.
The death on April 29th of 8th Circuit Judge Donald Lay marked the conclusion of a noteworthy 40-year judicial career. Judge Lay was the second Minnesota-based jurist to step down recently after a lengthy career with the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals. After nearly four decades, Judge Gerald Heaney of Duluth retired last September. See "40 Years of 8th Circuit Jurisprudence," 64 Bench & Bar of Minnesota 3 (March 2007), at 18.
A few months later, Judge Heaney was followed by Judge Lay, his colleague of four decades, who took permanent retirement status at age 80 at the beginning of 2007, four months before he passed away at the end of April. Judge Lay served on the 8th Circuit from July 1966, including a 12-year stint as chief judge from 1980-1992, and then continued in senior status through 2006.
Although he practiced law primarily in Nebraska before appointment to the bench, Judge Lay had Minnesota connections, too. He moved to Minnesota from his home in Omaha following the opening of the 8th Circuit divisional facility in St. Paul in 1982, and he continued to reside in the Twin Cities area until his retirement. He also served on the faculty of both William Mitchell College of Law and the University of Minnesota Law School during his tenure on the tribunal.
Criminal Cases
Like Judge Heaney, Judge Lay authored hundreds of opinions, many involving monumental matters. He was dedicated to upholding the constitutional rights of criminal defendants, especially in matters involving due process rights and capital punishment.
His predilection against hasty conviction and execution of defendants in capital murder cases, tempered with fidelity to the law, was reflected in Mercer v. Armontrout, 864 F.2d 1429 (8th Cir. 1988), which was before the court for a second time after it initially upheld a stay of execution. Responding to criticism of the stay by the Missouri state court, Judge Lay had opined that "the legal process in a civilized society must not rush to judgment and therefore rush to execute a person found guilty of taking the life of another." But, writing for a unanimous panel, Judge Lay ultimately agreed with the state, after "reflective study and analysis," that the stay petition failed to raise any issues which would undermine the legality of Mercer's conviction. However, he admonished the lower court for rebuking the appellate court's diligence, asserting that "[t]o suggest that a life or death decision can be made simply by reading a petition is to advocate dereliction of judicial duty."
In Morrissey v. Brewer, 443 F.2d 942 (8th Cir. 1971), the en banc 8th Circuit, over Judge Lay's dissent, held that a state parole board is not required to provide a parolee with a due process hearing before revoking the parole. But the U.S. Supreme Court agreed with Judge Lay, reversing by an 8-1 vote and requiring that parolees be furnished a revocation hearing, known as a Morrissey hearing, which must comply with the minimum requirements of due process, including the ability to present favorable evidence to cross-examine adverse witnesses before a "neutral and detached hearing body."Morrissey v. Brewer, 408 U.S., 471 (1972).
Civil Concerns
Judge Lay's concerns for the rights of individuals in civil litigation were reflected in a number of cases, including some very high profile ones. The most prominent may have been Jenson v. Eveleth Taconite Co., 130 F.3d 1287 (8th Cir. 1997), the sexual harassment class action case brought by women mining employees on The Iron Range which formed the basis for the 2005 movie "North Country" starring Charlize Theron, Frances McDormand and Woody Harrelson.
Referring to the "long, tortured, and unfortunate history" of the decade-long litigation, Judge Lay's majority decision remanded the case for a new ruling on damages for the harassed employees. In so doing, he blamed the defense counsel for delaying the case by "exercising senseless and irrelevant discovery, and by making endless objections at trial." But he also blamed the "judicial system [which] allowed the lawyers to do what they did" and urged "better treatment" of civil litigants. Following remand, the case was settled at Judge Lay's urging, with claimants receiving a total of $3.5 million.
In Mille Lacs Band of Chippewa Indians v. Minnesota, 124 F.3d 904 (8th Cir. 1997), Judge Lay affirmed five prior rulings of U.S. District Court judges Diana Murphy and Michael Davis in Minnesota upholding the hunting and fishing rights of an Indian band derived from an 1837 treaty with the United States. In so doing Judge Lay rejected a number of claims to invalidate or restrict the treaty, including the contention that it was abrogated by the legislation in 1858 by which Minnesota became a state. After detailed and insightful analysis of the issues, he paid homage to all of the lawyers in the complex litigation for "their work in presenting the important and complex issues" in a decision that was affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court. 526 U.S. 172 (1999).
Judge Lay upheld punitive damages for a defamed employee in Burger v. McGilley Memorial Chapels, Inc., 856 F.2d 1046 (8th Cir. 1988). At trial, the jury awarded the plaintiff, a former employee of a funeral parlor, $1 in nominal damages and $85,000 in punitive damages for slanderous comments the facility had made regarding the employee after he had been fired. The trial court entered judgment notwithstanding the verdict, denying recovery of the punitive damages award. On appeal, Judge Lay, writing for the court, reversed the lower court and reinstated the punitive damages award. He reasoned that when the employer's personnel made the slanderous statement they "either knew the statement was false or … they acted out of reckless disregard as to its truthfulness," and that they "acted out of malice in trying to prevent the ex-employee from getting another job with a competitor.
In later years, as the ideological base of the court shifted, Judge Lay was often cast as the dissenter, particularly in cases upholding discharges of employees. In Chambers v. Omaha Girls Club, Inc., 840 F.2d 583 (8th Cir. 1988), a gender discrimination case, he dissented from the majority's ruling upholding termination of a teacher, finding that her discharge "because of her pregnancy is the most blatant form of sex discrimination that can exist." Similarly, in a retaliatory discharge case, Melvin v. Car-Freshener Corp., 453 F.3d 1000 (8th Cir. 2006), where the court granted summary judgment to the employer, Judge Lay dissented, lamenting that "[t]oo many courts in this circuit … are utilizing summary judgment in cases where issues of fact remain" and further bemoaned that summary judgment "should be the exception, not the rule" in workplace discrimination cases.
Judge Lay leaves a long legacy of law, like his Minnesota-bred colleague Judge Heaney. Their departures leave a void — and some would say vacuum — on the 8th Circuit tribunal, which still has two remaining Minnesota jurists, Judge Diana Murphy and Chief Judge James Loken. Judge Lay, like Judge Heaney, will be missed by many Minnesotans and others concerned about equality and justice for all.

Shaken, not Stirred! "Deadpool 2" star Morena Baccarin opens up on "The Talk" Friday about wanting to take on the iconic role of James Bond and shares how she envisions the character as a woman. "I think pretty much like Bond, but female. I think why not," says Baccarin. "Have her do the same things. Have her have gadgets, also I think I like the idea of her being slightly emotionally vulnerable, but unable to make connections like he is. I think that's fascinating…that would be fun."

Gasherbrum II, a Third 8000er by a Woman. On July 13, after 11 days of trekking from Dassu, Lut Vivijs, Ingrid Baeyens, Raf Snoeck and I arrived at Base Camp at 5150 meters. A fortnight of bad weather then confined activities. The two ladies and I broke trail to Camp I at 5800 meters on August 4. The day after, a steep slope led to a second bivouac at 6500 meters. Previous heavy snowfall made breaking trail very tiring. On the shoulder at 7000 meters between Bivouacs II and III, we came on the body of Gary Silver, a lugubrious sight. On hands, arms, knees and bellies, we plowed our way through loose snow on another even steeper slope. Due to fatigue, we had to interrupt our climb at 7600 meters. On August 8, we made the final efforts. On slopes up to 50°, we swam rather than climbed to reach the summit at noon. As a climbing couple, Lut Vivijs and I have now conquered our third 8000er. She is tied for second on the women's 8000er list.

SPEAKING to Cumbernauld Media as part of our new 'Why I'm Yes' video project, Rachel – a key face behind the town's 'Yes Cumbernauld' campaign – has outlined why she believes Scotland should be an independent country.
As part of the new series, videos will regularly be uploaded to Youtube which feature interviews with the key faces behind the local pro-independence campaign, led by Yes Cumbernauld. Rachel was the third person to be interviewed for the series which will be broadcast through the Cumbernauld Media Youtube channel – 'Cumbernauld Television'.
Facing a variety of questions, such as her personal reasons for backing independence, her reaction to polling statistics and her vision for an independent Scotland, Rachel outlined the reasons why she feels people should back Scotland leaving the United Kingdom.
Explaining her reasons for backing a Yes vote and for supporting Scottish independence, Rachel said: "I would like Scotland to have a part in the world stage; I would like it to be a fairer, more democratic society; and, I would like my vote to count in parliamentary elections, which I don't feel it does at the moment."
When we asked Rachel – who currently works as a teacher- what she most looks forward to with independence, she explained that she was looking forward to Scotland having "total control of things".
She went on: "We would be able to vote and have those decisions reflected in the parties that we elect; I would like there to be a living wage, for example; I would like us to have more green energy, and have more things in place to support women, who are going back to work or looking for better childcare so that they can balance their career and family life."
"There's a few things that I feel are just not taking prominence in the way that politics is being run in the country just now; I feel that it's being run by an elite, and I don't feel that the politics are meeting the expectations of ordinary working people," Rachel added.
The new 'Why I'm Yes' series will see various local pro-independence campaigners outline their vision for a separate Scotland and outline why they believe Scotland should be an independent country.
The videos will then be uploaded to Youtube and will hopefully help local voters to better understand the arguments for and against independence, as the referendum on whether or not Scotland should divorce the UK marriage nears.
Ms Glover's video will appear alongside interviews with Jamie Hepburn, SNP MSP for Cumbernauld and Kilsyth, and Ann Ballinger from the Cumbernauld branch of 'Women for Independence'.
Scots will go to the polls on Thursday 18 September and answer the straightforward 'Yes/No' question, 'Should Scotland be an independent country?'.

Gandhi's Interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount
Jeremy Holtom
The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most commented upon and interpreted biblical passages, yet in a real sense Gandhi's interpretation of it represents a unique and significant point in the reception history of the Bible as a whole. Here we have a Christian scripture being reverently received and dynamically applied by a man who remained all his life a devoted adherent of the Hindu faith. This article argues that Gandhi's particular responses to the concepts contained in the Sermon on the Mount must be understood not only in the context of his dialogue with Christianity, but in the terms of his own Hindu faith as he understood and lived it. His interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount can only be properly understood through analysis of how he applied it in his political campaigns in South Africa and India. In this context it is important to consider what the text meant to Gandhi himself; what it meant to his, at least nominally Christian, opponents; and how it impacted on the struggle and dialogue between them.
Hindu Communities Abroad
Vasudha Narayanan
For more than 2,000 years, Hindu communities have flourished outside the subcontinent of India. Despite the prohibitions against traveling across the ocean found in many Hindu texts, Indians settled in Malaysia and Singapore probably before the first millennium CE. Trading communities seem to have been set up in Cambodia by the first century CE. In the nineteenth century, indentured workers arrived in Fiji and in the Caribbean. By the time indentured labor was abolished in 1919, there were more than 60,000 Indians in Fiji. Hindus, who had come to work on plantations, settled in Uganda and other African countries in the early twentieth century and eventually became successful business entrepreneurs. Many kinds of Hindu communities exist in the United States. Perhaps the most noticeable feature of Hindu communities that settled outside of India is the tremendous time, monies, and energy expended on the building of temples. Just as the Hindu tradition appropriated and utilized print and audiovisual technologies, the Internet revolution has also been used to help articulate traditions and create communities.
Hindu Eschatology
David M. Knipe
In a survey of the extensive, complex, and cumulative history of Hinduism, it might be opportune to divide personal and cosmic eschatologies. Similarly, it could be convenient to separate the early from the classical history of Hinduism and concentrate solely on the latter. The early history, framed by a sacrificial world view and veering toward an almost mechanistic understanding of gods and the cosmos, is entirely dependent upon the eternal Vedas. With certain sectarian and modernizing exceptions, a generally acknowledged set of contemporary Hindu beliefs and practices would include the following: acceptance of the Vedas as basic authority, belief in transmigration and the effects of human action (karma) on rebirths, devoted recognition of certain divine beings (gods, goddesses, living and departed saints), acknowledgment of a class and caste social hierarchy, ritual attention to ancestors, and a general understanding of life as moral progress toward an eventual liberation from rebirths. This article examines Hindu eschatology, focusing on Hindu beliefs such as immortality, metaphors of regeneration, brahman, Aranyakas, Upanishads, classical Sanskrit texts, preta, and world dissolution.
A Hindu Perspective
Arvind Sharma
Religious diversity is a central issue in the study of religion. To begin with, there are the diverse religions that are conventionally listed minimally as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Daoism. But the more we extend the scope of the term "religions," the greater the diversity. But whereas in the other traditions, religious diversity has happened in spite of their centralizing beliefs and practices and is historical in nature, within Hinduism, it is theological and philosophical in nature, a nature that finds expression in its history. The tolerant and even welcoming attitude toward religious diversity is evidenced in Hinduism at several levels: deities, scriptures, scriptural interpretation, sects, and so on. The religious variety within Hinduism has had profound implications for the way it looks at other religious traditions. It tends to view these traditions as a further extension of its own variety and, therefore, in principle capable of being assimilated within it. This has major implications for Hindu identity.
Hindu Religion and Environmental Well-being
O. P. Dwivedi
A society's cultural and spiritual underpinnings of environmental stewardship can be a solid source of strength as well as a benefit to that society. One does not have to go too far to locate such underpinnings, because each society's spiritual heritage can be used to provide new ways of valuing, thinking, and acting that are necessary to nurture the respect for nature and to be prepared to avert future ecological disasters. Hinduism (as well as other world religions in their own way) offers a unique set of moral values and rules to guide human beings in their relationship with the environment. This essay examines the Hindu concept of divinity being present in creation and as such exhortations for Hindus to treat nature with respect, the concept of an extended family of Mother Earth, our dharma and karma to the environment, and environmental challenges facing Hindus and India.

Emotion is viewed in both positive and negative ways in the Hindu religious and philosophical traditions. In those traditions that are more ascetic and emphasize mental control, emotions are distractions which need to be stilled. In those traditions that emphasize love of a deity, emotions are valuable—but they must be directed and transformed. However, in order to study emotion in the Hindu tradition, we must first look at the meaning of the term "Hinduism." There are at least six major types of Hinduism: Hindu folk religion, Vedic religion, Vedantic Hinduism, yogic Hinduism, dharmic Hinduism, and bhakti or devotional Hinduism. All of these involve emotion in various ways, but two traditions—those of Bengali Vaishnavism and raja yoga—have written about emotion in greatest depth. This article examines what the term "emotion" means in India, and then describes the beliefs about emotion in Vaishnavism and Yoga in greater detail. In discussing the nature of emotion, it considers bhava and rasa. Finally, the article discusses the literature on emotion in Hindu tradition, focusing on religious poetry.

Over the course of 3000 years, Hindu intellectual culture has not only embraced differing notions of the divine, but also a variety of different 'atheisms'—the most famous of these being the Carvaka, or Lokayata, school. This essay charts the history of Hindu 'atheism' in the various forms it has taken from the classical to modern periods, including scepticism regarding the supernatural, the soul and an afterlife, non-theistic approaches to divinity, and critical or subversive responses to religion. It also engages with and explains a number of key ideas within Hindu thought and practice, including Dharma and personalism. Finally it outlines a 'Hindu axis of atheism' by highlighting some of the key themes on which Indian critiques have centred.
Hinduism and Conversion
Arvind Sharma
The notion of conversion is closely associated with a particular notion of religion, namely, that the membership of a religion involves exclusive religious identity, as is typically the case with the Abrahamic religions. The idea of conversion from one religion to another makes eminent sense in such a context and so does the idea of proselytization. Hinduism as a religion, however, is typically quite comfortable with multiple religious participation, multiple religious affiliation, and even with multiple religious identity. This chapter explores the significance of this feature of Hinduism for understanding the word "conversion," especially as this feature of Hinduism is shared by several Asian religions.
Hinduism and Music
Guy L. Beck
This chapter discusses the theoretical and practical dimensions of music in Hinduism, including the philosophy of sacred sound (Nāda-Brahman), the aesthetics of rasa ("taste"), the rise of Saṅgīta (music) as a component of pūjā (worship) and early drama, the Sanskrit musical treatises of Bharata and Dattila, the development of rāga (melodic pattern) and tāla (rhythmic cycle) from early scales and Sāma-Gāna (Sama-Veda chant), musical instruments, bhakti (devotion), and various classical and devotional genres of Bhakti-Saṅgīta, including Kriti, Dhrupad, Khyāl, Haveli-Saṅgīta, Samāj-Gāyan, Bhajan, and Nām-Kīrtan, within southern (Carnatic) and northern (Hindustani) traditions. Music is essential to Hindu mythology, where divine beings perform and instruct humans in the gentle art that facilitates both enjoyment (bhukti) and liberation (mukti). Prevalent in sacrifices, temple rites, domestic worship, sectarian movements and films, music is invariably part of Hindu worship in India or the Diaspora.
Hinduism and Science
Sangeetha Menon
Hinduism represents the religion and philosophy that originated in India. It is the religion of 16 per cent of the world's population, and India is home to more than 90 per cent of the world's Hindus. Today many historians and philosophers of science have started reviewing the dynamic events and historical processes that led to what is called the European Enlightenment and modern science. This article focuses on how Hinduism as a religion has coexisted with scientific pursuits, the underpinnings of such partnerships, and the significant contributions of such dialogues to the current engagements between science and spirituality. The discussion follows how apparently different enterprises of experience and reporting of experience were given a common space, as well as what the areas of convergence are that Hinduism posits for dialogues between and within science and spirituality. The article particularly looks at the Vedantic (Upanishads) tradition.

Getting Started in Android Development
Part 33 -
Continued from the previous tutorial, we will cover the testing of the XML parser. However, the main focus will be on the private printValues() method. As implied, this method prints the data retrieved for the weather.xml file. The difference here compared to previous tutorials with layouts is that the views are not pre-
In our example we created a basic layout to display the XML data. Aside from the TextView heading there is a nested linear layout with horizontal orientation. Inside of this layout there are three TextViews that will hold the table headings for the city, temperature and weather. They each have a weight of 1 so that they are evenly spaced across the screen. It is this arrangement of a horizontally oriented, nested linear layout and associated TextViews that we will create programmatically to hold the actual XML data. We will do this for each of the three XML nodes to generate three rows of data.
It's important to give the parent layout an ID as we will need to make changes to it in java.
LinearLayout ll1;
ll1 = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.ll1);
If we focus on the printValues() method, the first task is to create the nested linear layout.
LinearLayout weatherData = new LinearLayout(this);
We now need to define layout parameters that will be applied to each of the three TextViews.
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(0, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
This is a complex piece of code, but it essentially means that each TextView will have a width of 0dp and a height of wrap_content. The width is set to 0dp as this is what is needed to ensure that the weight functions correctly. If you need more information on Android weight then take a look at my tutorial on this subject.
We can then apply a weight of 1 to the params object.
params.weight = 1;
Next set the orientation of the linear layout we just created.
The next task is to create the TextViews with the code below:
TextView cityText = new TextView (this);
TextView temperatureText = new TextView (this);
TextView weatherText = new TextView (this);
The layout parameters are the applied to each TextView.
The XML data is used to set the text of each TextView.
The following code is used to add each TextView to the linear layout:
Finally, so that the data actually can be seen, the new linear layout needs to be added to the parent layout ll1.
The method is called three times to create three rows of data. A screenshot of the resultant layout is shown below:
