"There is no spoon." Steve and Christian watched the classic sci film, "The Matrix." The guys discuss what it means to be human, the nature of reality, free will, and taking the "red pill." We're also shining a light on the Saint Haralambos Agape Grocery, which has distributed over 16 tons of groceries to the public since in the last few months. It's one of many outreach programs the parish offers to the wider community. Learn more on the parish website: saintharalambosgoc.org. In our next episode, we'll get in the holiday spirit and dig into the Netflix movies "The Christmas Chronicles."

As a special bonus, we have unlocked the first of two bonus episodes this month on the RIP a Livecast Patreon page, where we go through our thoughts on all […]

Pop culture, and especially science fiction, has played host to several of philosophy’s biggest questions that can trace their origins back thousands of years, according to David Chalmers, philosopher and author of Reality+.

The extracellular matrix encompasses a reservoir of bioactive macromolecules that modulates a cornucopia of biological functions. A prominent body of work posits matrix constituents as master regulators of autophagy and angiogenesis and provides molecular insight into how these two processes are coordinated. Here, we review current understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying hyaluronan and HAS2 regulation and the role of soluble proteoglycan in affecting autophagy and angiogenesis. Specifically, we assess the role of proteoglycan-evoked autophagy in regulating angiogenesis via the HAS2-hyaluronan axis and ATG9A, a novel HAS2 binding partner. We discuss extracellular hyaluronan biology and the post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications that regulate its main synthesizer, HAS2. We highlight the emerging group of proteoglycans that utilize outside-in signaling to modulate autophagy and angiogenesis in cancer microenvironments and thoroughly review the most up-to-date understanding of endorepellin signaling in vascular endothelia, providing insight into the temporal complexities involved.

Reality can never be perfectly simulated if you take into consideration quantum complexity.

The MATRIX Blog recently celebrated its 4th Anniversary. The blog is known for providing useful articles and tips about online training, e-learning trends, and corporate learning management systems.

Joining the actor, 55, on set was his girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, who was seen bundled up in an animal print coat, watching production unfold in San Francisco's Financial District.

The E! star sported a sweeping brown leather coat that was not unlike the one favoured by the blockbuster's character Neo, as her designer pal photobombed her leaving the restaurant.
