study: Encyclopedia II - Torah im Derech Eretz - Interpretation

The philosophy of Torah im Derech Eretz can be interpreted broadly and narrowly. This distinction arises particularly in light of Hirsch’s insistence as to faithfulness to Jewish law and tradition. Under the "narrow interpretation", exposure to gentile philosophy, music, art, literature, or ethics must be functional. Under the "broad interpretation", this exposure is permissible, and even productive, for its own sake. Thus as regards involvement in the secular world, the “narrow interpretation” essentially limits Derec ...

study: Encyclopedia II - F-22 Raptor - Comparisons

The F-22 is claimed by many sources to be the world’s most effective air-superiority fighter; however, government secrecy makes comparisons with other aircraft difficult. Among its advantages are its sustained high speed*, thrust vectoring, sensors, stealth features, advanced avionics, and ability to exchange data with other U.S. systems. While making a complete assessment is impossible based on publicly available information, there is a study by the UK's DERA comparing the Eurofighter Typhoon to other contemporary fighters; in it, ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Judaism - Traditional view of the development of Judaism

The subject of the Hebrew Bible is an account of the Israelites' (also called Hebrews) relationship with God as reflected in their history from the beginning of time until the building of the Second Temple (ca. 350 BCE). This relationship is generally portrayed as contentious, as Jews struggle between their faith in God and their attraction for other gods, and as some Jews, such as Abraham; (most notably a ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Judaism - Jewish denominations

Over the past two centuries the Jewish community has divided into a number of Jewish denominations; each has a different understanding of what principles of belief a Jew should hold, and how one should live as a Jew. To some degree, these doctrinal differences have created schisms between the Jewish denominations. Nonetheless, there is some level of Jewish unity. For example, it would not be unusual for a Conservative Jew to attend either an Orthodox or Reform synagogue. The article on Relationships between Jewish religious movements discuss ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Crime prevention through environmental design - Effectiveness

CPTED strategies are most successful when they inconvenience the end user the least and when the CPTED design process relies upon the combined efforts of environmental designers, land managers, community activists, and law enforcement professionals. In terms of effectiveness, a more accurate title for the strategy would be crime deterrence through environmental design. Research demonstrates that offenders cannot be literally prevented from committing crimes by using CPTED. CPTED relies upon changes to the physical environment t ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Crime prevention through environmental design - Strategies for the built environment

CPTED strategies rely upon the ability to influence offender decisions that precede criminal acts. Research into criminal behavior shows that the decision to offend or not to offend is more influenced by cues to the perceived risk of being caught than by cues to reward or ease of entry. Consistent with this research, CPTED based strategies emphasise enhancing the perceived risk of detection and apprehension. Consistent with the widespread implementation of defensible space guidelines in the 1970s, most implementations of CPTED as of 2 ...

F-22 Raptor - Procurement. The United States Air Force originally planned to order 750 ATFs, with production beginning in 1994. The 1990 Major Aircraft Review altered the plan to 648 aircraft beginning in 1996. The goal changed again in 1994, when it became 442 planes entering service in 2003 or 2004. A 1997 Department of Defense report put the purchase at 339. In 2003, the Air Force said that the existing congressional cost cap limited the purchase to 277. In 2005, the Pentagon is saying it will buy 180 aircraft ...

In Spring of 2004 there was controversy about Alberta Premier Ralph Klein plagiarising a paper he was doing. The University cleared him of it, but it brought the university into public awareness even more than it had been. "The plagiarism allegation stemmed from a now controversial essay Klein wrote on Chilean history. Collier found that Klein had failed to properly cite the Internet sources he used for the paper, but his instructor had noted the mistake in marking the essay and ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Cram school - Cram schools in India

Like in other Asian countries education plays a very great role in the lives of the young. And given the intense competition that young Indians experience because of the country's huge population, the need for a degree takes on a whole new perspective. Numerous cram schools—referred to as tutorials in India—have sprung up all over the nation. Like elsewhere here too these tutorials have become a parallel education system with the aim of getting their "clients" through various competitive exams. These exams are necessary to get into not only fields like engineering, m ...

With the development of powerful new supercomputers like the Earth Simulator in Japan, mathematical modeling of the atmosphere can reach unprecedented accuracy. This is not only due to the enhanced spatial and temporal resolution of the grids employed, but also because these more powerful machines can model the Earth as an integrated climate system, where atmosphere, ocean, vegetation, and man-made influences depend on each other realistically. The goal in global meteorological modeling can be termed Earth System Modeling, with a grow ...

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali are one of the six darshanas of Hindu or Vedic schools and, alongside the Bhagavad Gita and Hatha Yoga Pradipika, are a milestone in the history of Yoga. The book is a set of aphorisms (sutras), which are short, terse phrases designed to be easy to memorize. Though brief, the Yoga Sutras are an enormously influential work that is just as relevant for yoga philosophy and practice today as it was when it was written. To understand the work's title, it is necessary to consider the meanings of its two c ...

study: Encyclopedia II - Profession - History

Historically, the number of professions was limited: members of the clergy, medical doctors, and lawyers held the monopoly on professional status and on professional education, with military officers occasionally recognised as social equals. Self-governing bodies such as guilds or colleges, backed by state-granted charters guaranteeing monopolies, limited access to and behaviour within such professions. With the rise of technology and occupational specialisation in the 19th century, other bodies began to claim "professio ...

Although modern mainstream psychology largely endeavors to be a scientific endeavor, the field has a history of controversy. Some criticisms of psychology have been made on ethical and philosophical grounds. Some have argued that by subjecting the human mind to experimentation and statistical study, psychologists objectify persons; because it treats human beings as things, as objects that can be examined by experiment, psychology is sometimes portrayed as dehumanizing, ignoring o ...

Psychology - Mind and brain. Psychology does not necessarily refer to the brain or nervous system and can be framed purely in terms of phenomenological or information processing theories of the mind. Increasingly, though, an understanding of brain function is being included in psychological theory and practice, particularly in areas such as artificial intelligence, neuropsychology, and cognitive neuroscience.
