"The Egyptians say that Demeter [Isis] and Dionysos [Osiris] are the rulers of the lower world. The Egyptians were the first who maintained the following doctrine, too, that the human soul is immortal, and at the death of the body enters into some other living thing then coming to birth"

Following federal cuts to history-focused organizations, the president of the Canadian Historical Association, Colin Coates, sent this letter to Marc Miller, the Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture.
One thing might not be obvious: Coates's reference to Carney's recent Quebec City speech suggests Canadians' need for historical context right now. He doesn't agree with Carney's claims. In fact, most Canadian historians would dispute them.

Letter: Dear Minister Miller, I am writing to you in my capacity as president of the Canadian Historical Association | Société historique du Canada. The members of our association have been distressed to see the recent news about cutbacks in a number of federal government units that are very important to all Canadians who are interested in the history of our country: Library and Archives Canada, the Canadian Museum of History and the Canadian War Museum, Parks Canada, and Statistics Canad…
Letter: While we cannot expect the federal government to address problems at the provincial level, in your role as Minister of Canadian Heritage, we hope that we can count on you to advocate on behalf of all Canadians to maintain and enhance the role of agencies that collect data and records and make them accessible to broad publics. We recognise that the country faces many current challenges, but we do not want short-sighted decisions to have long-lasting effects on the future study of the co…

#TIL about Benford's law where for some data sets of numbers, the first digit is usually 1 and rarely 9 (with descending probability in between). It's especially common in data sets following the power law (which is common in nature).
Seems a useful consideration when generating random numbers shown directly to players (like a multiple choice) -- even if they're unfamiliar, …

Two distribution curves with descriptions. Left: A broad probability distribution of the log of a variable, shown on a log scale. Benford's law can be seen in the larger area covered by red (first digit one) compared to blue (first digit 8) shading. Right: A narrow probability distribution of the log of a variable, shown on a log scale. Benford's law is not followed, because the narrow distribution does not meet the criteria for Benford's law.

Insider Delivers Exciting Take for Raiders Amid Coaching Search
The Las Vegas Raiders are in the middle of finding their next head coach after the team fired Pete Carroll following their 3-14 2025 NFL season. While the Raiders roster has a couple of talented pieces, it’s a team in need of a rebuild. Although the Raiders have Geno Smith, he’s not the answer long-term. With the Silver and Black holding the No. 1 pick, it’s clear that Indiana Hoosiers QB Fernando Mendoza will likely be the guy they take in April’s NFL Draft. Moreover, minority owner To…

The little owl, Athena noctua, is well-known as the companion of the goddess Athena, though it is uncertain how she became associated with the nocturnal birds. In Europe, the owl therefore represents wisdom and is the symbol of many a university.
The ancient Greeks showed #Athena with her favourite bird in their art, like for instance this bronze statuette of Athena flying her owl, dated ca.…
