Though the Marvel Cinematic Universe heroes have generally eschewed secret identities, the heroes in the DCEU have yet to do so. In the world of Justice League, Aquaman hangs up his trident and becomes Arthur Curry, Batman takes of his cowl to become Bruce Wayne, and Superman puts on his glasses to become Clark Kent. But unlike the other core members of the League, it seems that Vic Stone does not have the luxury of a double life, and that’s what will make him fundamentally different from the others in the upcoming film. Cyborg actor Ray Fisher explained:
January can be a time for optimism: new year, a clean slate, firm resolutions, endless possibilities. It’s natural to wonder whether that sunny outlook extends to the stock market. Enough people believe it does, and that belief has been elevated to something approaching conventional wisdom. As with a lot of conventional wisdom, though, the truth is debatable.
January Effect
The personal finance press has a catchy nickname for everything, including the belief that stocks will rise after the first of the year. They call it the “January effect.” As markets writer Adam Shell of “USA Today” explains it, one theory holds that investors brimming with optimism pour their money into the stock market, driving prices up. Other investors, hoping to get in on the gains spurred by that fresh cash, hop into the market to ride the wave, and away we go.
Have you ever felt dissatisfied with existing religions? Have you ever become fed up with the lack of tolerance within many existing religions? If you are inspired to create change, you can start your own religion. It may take a lot of effort to organize your religion and get it officially recognized. If it is something you are moved to do, however, it will be very rewarding to see your work lead to a thriving membership.
Part1:
Planning Your Religion
Step-1
Write a plan.
Starting a religion will require a significant amount of planning. You can start by writing down your ideas about why you want to invent a new religion. Understanding the basic reason for your religion’s existence will be critical if you want it to be successful. You may want to start a religion:
Because you are dissatisfied with the ones that currently exist.
Because you are deeply inspired and/or have glimpsed secret knowledge that you would like to share.
To perform weddings and other ceremonies in your own way.
As a joke.
To be critical of other religions.
Step-2
Develop a cosmology. If your religion intends to explain broad questions about the origin of the universe, the nature of reality, and the future, you will want to develop a cosmology, which explains all of these things. Your religion’s cosmology might describe things like a creation story and projections about the eventual end of things. Be as creative or inspired as your religion calls for.
Grand Theft Auto V: The Rise And Fall Of The DIY Self-Driving Car Lab
A few years ago, artificial intelligence researchers discovered that Grand Theft Auto V, the blockbuster 2013 video game, was good for more than stealing cars and causing mayhem on the fictional mean streets of Los Santos. Its realistic graphics and physics engine provide an excellent virtual environment for training self-driving cars. The game’s sprawling urban and rural environments are populated with pedestrians, drivers and animals that dynamically interact with the AI. Training an autonomous car system is all the more efficient when running over a pedestrian doesn’t result in real-life injuries and legal troubles.
The fun didn’t last long, though.
Over the past year, GTA V’s publisher, Take-Two Interactive, has quietly shut down a number of high-profile projects with cease-and-desist letters, according to multiple AI researchers involved in the projects. Take-Two is slamming the breaks on more than just commercial endeavors. Academic researchers have also been dealt with aggressively.
