There are absolutely thousands of websites that allow a web user to watch TV shows online. Instead of being taught about the great Zulu, Sotho, Xhosa and Shona civilizations of Stone builders in South Africa, Zimbabwe that built a city bigger than London or the artistic genius of the Nok civilization of Nigeria, they were told that their homeland was a "dark" continent, where their primitive, savage, ancestors roamed the wild jungles from morn till night practicing cannibalism and that luckily, God sent kind-hearted and charitable European Christians (Tarzan) to civilize them and to teach them his word in order to save them from themselves.
Horror in literature left a legacy that helped to propel this genre into films. If there had not been such a legacy of literary works then we may not have the same movies we do now. The term horror was first coined in 1764 in a book by Horace Walpole's called The Castle of Otranto which was full of the supernatural. In the following centuries literary giants like Edgar Allan Poe championed this genre with great works like The Raven. Some of the great horror movies of today are based on old horror stories like Frankenstein and Dracula which were both written in the 1800's.
Typically all games with the MOBA genre match groups of five (sometimes three) players against each other on the same map. Each team-member get to select a champion (hero) he or she chooses to play with. 4 Table 4 represents a common map in LoL. It consists of two main bases with one central building and three different ways (lanes) connecting them. The two groups have to work together in order to destroy enemy towers located on each of the three lanes leading to the enemy base. The aim of the game is to destroy the other team's central building, which is only possible if all towers on one lane have been destroyed.
Like you, I prefer the facts. I also prefer the truth, even if it hurts. I can work with the truth, but I can bang my head against a lie forever and make no progress. Faith is important, and even though I have faith to an extent, I don't feel like it's the same as for a lot of people. That is because of experiences I have had in my search for the truth. I believe God has shown Himself to me, provided proof of His existence, and that to me is amazing. I never required proof or asked for any kind of proof, so maybe that's why I received it? So I don't feel like I'm accepting something totally in the dark.
The review above was in aid towards making concrete some African elements that went into the the civilizing of Spain, Portugal and Europe by the Moors. The emphasis here is on the African origin of the civilization of Europe. It was very important in the Hub above to revisit this part of history which is rarely spoken nor written about. When I dubbed the topic of this Hub as I did, I had not yet given a very in-depth account as to who, in particular were these Africans.
From the premise that media, or technologies McLuhan's approach makes media" and technology" more or less 'synonymous terms', are extensions of some physical, social, psychological, or intellectual function of humans, flows all of McLuhan's subsequent ideas. Thus, the wheel extends our feet, the phone extends our voice, television extends our eyes and ears, the computer extends our brain, and electronic media, in general, extend our central nervous system.
