markets Art Strategy Software PINK Boxing Christmas tree decorations: What is a biblically accurate angel? Is it mandatory?
Christmas tree, why not create a biblically accurate angel? The result was a pink, blue and gold-feathered creature with six wings and dozens of eyes that went a little bit viral. There are a number of different kinds of angels that show up in the Bible, said Austin-Young, associate rector of the Episcopal Church of St. Mary the Virgin in San Francisco. For the most part, we don't get a lot of description of them, but both Revelations at the end of the Bible and some of the books of the prophets in the Old Testament describe strange creatures around the throne of God.

markets Digital Action Software film exclusive reports Sonic 3 OTT release date: When will 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' premiere?
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will be available to stream exclusively on Paramount+ instead of the widely anticipated platforms like Netflix or Disney+. Fans of the blue blur will be able to enjoy the high-speed action and adventures directly from their Paramount+ subscriptions, as per a report. While an exact release date for «Sonic the Hedgehog 3» has not yet been confirmed, we can make an educated guess based on the release patterns of previous Paramount films. «Sonic the Hedgehog 2» was in theaters for just over six weeks before moving to streaming, and similarly, films like «Smile 2» and «A Quiet Place: Day One» followed a comparable timeline. Given this trend, it’s reasonable to expect that «Sonic the Hedgehog 3» will likely arrive on Paramount+ by mid-February 2025, following a similar theatrical-to-streaming window, IGN reported. Paramount's new action comedy «Sonic the Hedgehog 3» sped to the top of the North American box office this weekend, outdoing predictions with an estimated take of $62 million, one of the best December openings in years, industry watchers said Sunday, as per AFP report.

SUN Matthews Food community wellness Features How the nativity reminds us of our responsibilities towards animals
The Bible doesn’t mention animals at the birth in Bethlehem. A text called the Gospel of Pseudo Matthew, now not considered Biblical, mentions an ox and an ass. St Francis invoked this in the Italian village of Greccio in 1223, creating the first Nativity tableau of Christ’s birth. He wished to emphasise Christ’s humble origins and importance for all the world, not just humans. “Laudato sie, mi Signore, cum tucte le Tue creature,” he wrote in his Canticle of the Sun: “Be praised, my Lord, through all your creatures.” In time, Nativity scenes included other animals, like the sheep of the shepherds and the camels of the Magi. In other parts of the world, local animals also feature, like elephants in India, llamas in Peru and kangaroos in Australia. Oddly, pigs rarely appear in Nativity scenes. An important reason for Christianity’s success was discarding food-related taboos, like the one on pork enforced in Christ’s own Jewish community. Yet, pigs seem out of place. Does an animal raised only to be killed feel inappropriate in a scene devoted to new life?

5G phones, triggered by the likely availability of more aggressively priced devices in the sub-₹10,000 range. Top handset brands seeking to clear this year's inventory of base 5G devices at discounts exceeding a sixth of the sticker prices should push volumes further, handset industry trackers said. Market researcher Counterpoint Research estimates pan-India penetration of base 5G smartphones will jump to 43% by end-2025 from an estimated 3% in year 2024, amid falling device prices, rising adoption of the next-gen wireless broadband service and a likely pick-up in upgrades to 5G devices at the entry-level. «The recent launch of sub-₹10,000 5G phones by the likes of Poco (C75) and Xiaomi (A4 5G) is set to intensify competition and potentially drive rival handset brands to also cut pricing of base 5G smartphone models down to similar levels.

Death Research Actor Experts hospital reports jogging Rohan Mirchandani's death due to cardiac arrest: Expert tips from Sushmita Sen's cardiologist to stay safe from heart attacks
Last year, actor Sushmita Sen shared her experience of surviving a heart attack despite having a 95% blockage in one of her arteries. Her cardiologist, Dr. Rajiv B Bhagwat from Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital, emphasized that her fitness routine played a crucial role in saving her life.

markets COST Digital Platform Software economy The price of your phone: How device-based pricing is quietly widening the digital divide
differential pricing quietly infiltrates the digital economy. The image going viral on social media-showcasing a prominent ride hailing service's fare disparity based on device type-is a stark reminder that the smartphone you use has become an indicator of how much you are charged. This practice, not limited to ride-hailing apps, extends to q-comm platforms, where the cost of groceries or delivery services can subtly shift based on perceived consumer affluence. It's an opaque-and arguably discriminatory-trend that demands scrutiny. At the heart of this issue is algorithmic pricing, a powerful tool in the arsenal of tech firms. These analyse consumer data-from purchasing history and location to device type and spending patterns. Ostensibly, the goal is to optimise pricing to maximise profits. But the process often veers into discriminatory territory. An iPhone signals a consumer's purchasing power, leading the algorithm to nudge prices higher under the assumption that such users are willing to pay more.
