Much of the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta were funded by corporate sponsorship and ticket sales. Some of the sponsors included Coca-Cola, AT&T, McDonald's, and Nike. However, there was considerable taxpayer money used to help reinforce the city's infrastructure, such as road improvements, airport expansion of airport, and improvements to public transportation.

How does buddhism spread throughout asia.
faust18 [17]

Explanation:

Buddhism spread across Asia through networks of overland and maritime routes between India, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and China. The transmission of Buddhism to Central Asia and China corresponded with the development of the silk routes as channels for intercultural exchanges. After a Buddhist community was established in the Chinese capital at Loyang by the second century C.E., Buddhist monasteries emerged near irrigated oases at Khotan, Kucha, Turfan, and Dunhuang on the northern and southern branches of the silk routes.

The earliest waves of Parthian, Sogdian and Indian translators of early Chinese Buddhist texts came to Loyang via the silk routes. Dhamaraksa (ca. 233-311 C.E.) and Kumarajiva (344-413 C.E.) came directly from Buddhist centers in the Tarim Basin. Anonymous foreign monks who traveled between India and China along the silk routes were responsible for the transmission of Buddhism at sub-elite levels. Faxian (between 399-414 C.E.) and Xuanzang (between 627-645 C.E.), the most famous Chinese pilgrims to India, reported valuable details about social, political, and religious conditions along the silk routes.

Stupas, cave paintings, and manuscripts reflect the movement of Buddhism across Central Asia on the silk routs. Stupas at Buddhist sites on the southern route in the Tarim Basin adopted northwestern Indian architectural features. A Gandhari manuscript of the Dharmapada from Khotan and about one thousand Kharosthi documents show that the Gandhari language of northwestern India, Pakistan and Afghanistan continued to be used along the southern silk route until the 4th century C.E. Numerous Buddhist paintings in caves on the northern silk route display close stylistic affinities with the art of Gandhara, western Central Asia, and Iran, while others incorporate more Chinese and Turkish elements.

Buddhist Sanskrit manuscripts from the 2nd-6th centuries C.E. found at northern silk route Buddhist centers generally belonged to Shravakayana (Hinayana) schools (particularly the Sarvastivadins), but Mahayana manuscripts were prevalent in southern silk route centers such as Khotan. Buddhist literature was written in Central Asian vernacular languages, including Khotanese Saka, Tocharian, Sogdian, Uighur, Tibetan, and Mongolian, after the 6th century. Buddhist artistic and literary traditions continued to flourish in Central Asia along with Zoroastrian, Manichaean, and Nestorian Christian traditions in the middle to late 1st millennium C.E. With the exceptions of the surviving Buddhist traditions in Tibet and Mongolia, Buddhism disappeared from the Silk Road regions of Central Asia in the 2nd millennium C.E.

How did the United States differ from those countries in Europe where religious minorities faced persecution?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Religion declines with economic development.  In a previous post that rattled around the Internet, I presented a scholarly explanation for this pattern: people who feel secure in this world have less interest in another one.

The basic idea is that wealth allows people to feel more secure in the sense that they are confident of having their basic needs met and expect to lead a long healthy life.  In such environments, there is less of a market for religion, the primary function of which is to help people cope with stress and uncertainty.

Some readers of the previous post pointed out that the U.S. is something of an anomaly because this is a wealthy country in which religion prospers.  Perhaps taking the view that one swallow makes a summer, the commentators concluded that the survival of religion here invalidates the security hypothesis. I do not agree.

Explanation:

The first point to make is that the connection between affluence and the decline of religious belief is as well-established as any such finding in the social sciences.  In research of this kind, the preferred analysis strategy is some sort of line-fitting exercise.  No researcher ever expects every case to fit exactly on the line, and if they did, something would be seriously wrong.

ow does data become knowledge and finally wisdom? Explain the relationship between knowledge acquisition, knowledge processing,
Stells [14]

Answer:

The process of knowlege acquisition, but most importantly of acquiring wisdom, is a pretty constant one that depends not just on physical and physiological processes, but also on emotional processes and on the experiences that a person goes through and that he or she reflects upon, builds upon, corrects daily and uses daily, to also impact his or her environment and the knowledge process of others.

Knowledge acquisition would be then the first process in this continuous and sometimes life-long journey. In order for a person to acquire knowledge, he or she must come in contact with data, which is basically informationt that is taken up by the senses and relayed to the brain for processing. This data, stimulates different areas of the brain that are responsible for processing, analyzing, and producing the correct responses to the data acquired by our senses. When this process is completed, and the data in in our brains, being processed, we have gone through two of the first steps, knowledge acquisition (exposure to data through the senses) and knowledge processing (our brains make sense of the data and analyzes it, taking the best steps to use such data).

The next two steps, knowledge generation and dissemination come from when our brains combine not just the data acquired, but also previous knowledge on a matter (in the form of memories and sensations), and continues gathering further information through the senses. This process cements the understanding, the comprehension on a matter, which is basically the analysis which our brain did on all the information gathered on an issue. Then, the person begins to observe more, provide more info, seek sources that will provide more information on a matter, and this information is processed and stored by our brain. Dissemination comes when a person, who has acquired enough knowledge on a matter, begins to share it with other people. This process is very important because it also helps a person to gather feedback on his own knowledge processing and will ensure constant correction, or improvement in his knowledge base.

The final step is wisdom, which is when knowledge becomes a stepping stone to impact our own lives and that of others through our knowledge. We are able to use what we have learned for the best of ourselves and others.

Examples on these steps for practice would be like this: knowledge acquisition and processing: learning about how to treat wounds in a patient (given by classes, observation of the process done by others, and books). Then, processing all that data in the brain and conjugate it with previous knowledge and further experiences, to generate correct responses once I come in contact with a wound and its treatment. Then, I will further observe others´ ways of treating, read further books on the matter to keep up-to-date, learn more from teachers and professionals. When all this is finally assimilated and cemented, I can go ahead and share my knowledge and experiences with others who are in the same process (dissemination). Finally, wisdom comes when this knowledge on wounds is so internalized that I can help others in their process to make the best decisions regarding how to treat not just wounds, but also other factors that affect a wounded patient (wisdom).

At the Constitutional Convention, the Virginia Plan appealed most widely to delegates of which kind of states?
aliya0001 [1]

The Virginia Plan (also known as the Randolph Plan, after its sponsor, or the Large-State Plan) was a proposal by Virginia delegates for a bicameral legislative branch. The plan was drafted by James Madison while he waited for a quorum to assemble at the Constitutional Convention of 1787.

Virginia's Plan was based on population. The larger states favored this plan because it would give them more representation in Congress.
