Common goals in MMORPGs include leveling up avatars by earning experience points through combat with monsters or completing quests. The document also discusses guilds/clans, immersive online environments, considerations for virtual world design, and examples of popular virtual worlds.

The Omega Point of the Human Race - WWW.OLOSCIENCE.COMFausto Intilla
This document provides biographical information about Fausto Intilla, an Italian inventor and scientific divulgator who lives and works in Switzerland. It notes that he debuted as an author in 1995 with a science fiction novel and is known for his "Tree Structure" invention, one of the most popular anti-seismic structures for bridges and viaducts. It provides his email address and postal address in Switzerland.
Jake Scully, a paraplegic former Marine, takes his brother's place on a mission to Pandora in 2154. Pandora is inhabited by 10-foot tall Na'vi and is being mined for the valuable mineral unobtanium. Jake infiltrates the Na'vi tribe by operating an "avatar," a genetically engineered Na'vi-human hybrid. He grows close to the Na'vi and falls in love with one named Neytiri. However, the military plans to destroy the Na'vi tribe. This forces Jake to choose between helping the Na'vi or assisting the military in their plans, setting up the central conflict of the film.

What happens in the barzakh? (Hereafter, Islamic belief, afterlife)Amina Inloes
According to Islamic belief, the afterlife commences with the barzakh. After death, souls move on to the barzakh, where they experience many things, until the blow of the trumpet and the subsequent arrival of the Day of Judgment. This PowerPoint presentation examines what happens in that time in the barzakh according to Qur'an and hadith (especially from the Shi'i school of thought). Large file size is due to embedded video clips.
Avatar is a 2009 film directed by James Cameron that addresses issues of industrialization, pollution, imperialism, and capitalism. It is set in the 22nd century when humans are mining the valuable mineral Unobtanium on the alien moon Pandora, threatening the indigenous Na'vi tribe. The Na'vi live in harmony with the living ecosystem of Pandora and have a spiritual connection to the planet. They come into conflict with the human miners who are destroying the land for profit and see the Na'vi as obstacles. The film criticizes the destruction caused by unrestrained industrialization and capitalism's prioritization of profits over environmental and social impacts.

There are 8 individuals considered immortal in Hindu mythology:
1. Ashwathama, cursed with immortality and eternal suffering for his role in murder.
2. Mahabali, a righteous demon king who was blessed and sent to Patala by Vishnu.

4. Hanuman, who served Lord Rama and is immortal as long as Rama's name exists.
5. Vibhishana, Ravana's brother who was made king of Lanka and blessed by Lord Rama.

The document discusses the power of Jesus Christ's resurrection. It begins by defining key terms like "resurrection" and "power" from the original Greek. It then explains that the purpose of the resurrection was not just forgiveness of sins but to justify believers and give them new spiritual life. By rising from the dead, Jesus became the "firstborn among many" and his resurrection made it possible for believers to be born again from death to life through faith in him. The consequences of the resurrection were that Jesus regained authority over all creation and believers can now share in his resurrected life through the new birth.
