A Christian ( pronunciation ) is a person who adheres to Christianity, an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. "Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word Christós (Χριστός), a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term mashiach.
There are diverse interpretations of Christianity which sometimes conflict. However, "Whatever else they might disagree about, Christians are at least united in believing that Jesus has a unique significance." The term "Christian" is also used adjectivally to describe anything associated with Christianity, or in a proverbial sense "all that is noble, and good, and Christ-like." It is also used as a label to identify people who associate with the cultural aspects of Christianity, irrespective of personal religious beliefs or practices.
According to a 2011 Pew Research Center survey, there were 2.2 billion Christians around the world in 2010, up from about 600 million in 1910. By 2050, the Christian population is expected to exceed 3 billion. According to a 2012 Pew Research Center survey Christianity will remain the world's largest religion in 2050, if current trends continue.
Bruce Feiler (born October 25, 1964) is an American writer and television personality. He is the author of 12 books, including six consecutive New York Times nonfiction best-sellers. He writes the "This Life" column in the Sunday New York Times and is also the writer/presenter of the PBS miniseries Walking the Bible and Sacred Journeys with Bruce Feiler (2014).
Feiler is credited with formulating the Feiler Faster Thesis: the increasing pace of society and journalists' ability to report it is matched by the public's desire for more information.
He has written for numerous publications including The New Yorker, The New York Times Magazine, and Gourmet magazine, where he won three James Beard Awards. He is also a frequent contributor to National Public Radio, CNN, and Fox News.
A native of Savannah, Georgia, where he attended the Savannah Country Day School, Feiler lives in New York with his wife, Linda Rottenberg, and their twin daughters. Rottenberg, who frequently appears in his books, is co-founder and CEO of Endeavor, a nonprofit that supports High-Impact Entrepreneurs.
A Journey is a memoir by Tony Blair of his tenure as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Published in the UK on 1 September 2010, it covers events from when he became leader of the Labour Party in 1994 and transformed it into "New Labour", holding power for a party record three successive terms, to his resignation and replacement as Prime Minister by his Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown. Blair donated his £4.6 million advance, and all subsequent royalties, to the British Armed Forces charity The Royal British Legion. It became the fastest-selling autobiography of all time at the bookstore chain Waterstones. Promotional events were marked by antiwar protests.
Two of the book's major topics are the strains in Blair's relationship with Brown after Blair allegedly reneged on the pair's 1994 agreement to step down as Prime Minister much earlier, and his controversial decision to participate in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Blair discusses Labour's future after the 2010 general election, his relations with the Royal Family, and how he came to respect President George W. Bush. Reviews were mixed; some criticised Blair's writing style, but others called it candid.
SV Erlbach is a German association football club from the municipality of Erlbach, Bavaria. The club's greatest success has been promotion to the tier five Bayernliga in 2015.
Formed in 1963, SV Erlbach played, for the most part of its history as a lower amateur side. The club won promotion of the Bezirksliga Oberbayern-Ost in 2004 and played at this level for two seasons before achieving another promotion, now to the tier six Bezirksoberliga Oberbayern. Erlbach played the next five seasons at this level, with two sixth places as its best results but was relegated again in 2011. Erlbach returned to the Bezirksliga for the next two seasons, finishing runners-up in 2012 and winning the league the season after. The latter earned it promotion to the Landesliga for the first time.
Erlbach played in the tier six Landesliga Bayern-Südost for the next two seasons, coming third in its first year there. In 2014–15 the club finished runners-up in the league and, after defeating SpVgg Landshut and FV Illertiseen II in the play-offs, was promoted to the southern division of the Bayernliga for the first time.

Der FC Mühldorf empfing heute die 2. Mannschaft des SV Erlbach II in Altmühldorf und traf dabei auf einen alten Bekannten. Denn der Mühldorfer Christian Feiler hütet seit dieser Saison das Tor des SV Erlbach. Er hatte sich das erste Spiel gegen seinen alten Verein sicherlich etwas anders vorgestellt. Denn eine desolate Erlbacher Mannschaft kam gegen die Kreisstädter mit 1:8 unter die Räder. Und bei besserer Chancenauswertung hätte das Ergebnis durchaus noch höher ausfallen können.

In diesen Tagen wurde die Xbox One erstmalig ausgeliefert. Unsere Jungs Dennis Feiler und Christian Auth haben sich natürlich frühzeitig so ein Teil bestellt und gehörten somit zu den ersten Besitzern dieser neuen Spielekonsole. Nach den ersten Nächten des testens und ausprobierens haben wir uns dann entschieden, diese Xbox hier in unserem YouTube Kanal einmal vorzustellen. Wo unterscheidet sie sich zum Vorgänger, was ist anders, wie ist das Bedienerkonzept und warum es mehr als sinnvoll ist, so eine Xbox One auch an die Heimkinoanlage anzuschliessen und wenn möglich, auch in Kombination mit einem Projektor. Bevor wir jetzt ganz viele Anfrage bekommen. Nein, wir haben die Xbox One nicht im Verkauf und können hier auch über das Video hinaus keinen Service oder Beratung anbieten. Wir danken...

Diese Sonderausgabe der Kreativ Lounge ist der Kick-Off-Talk zum diesjährigen Formatfestival des MIZ-Babelsberg. Publizist Michael Praetorius spricht mit vier Mitgliedern der Festival Jury über deutsche und weltweite Perspektiven für zukunftsfähige journalistische Formate. Welche Zukunftsgeschichten werden bereits in der Gegenwart erzählt, welche Formate bestimmen das Feld und ist "Visual Storytelling" mehr als ein Trend? Alles ist nur einen Klick entfernt, das ist der Fluch und Segen des Internets. Wie lassen sich NutzerInnen an die eigene Marke und Plattform binden, wie lange darf die Leine sein? Facebook will der größte Nachrichtenkanal der Welt werden und statt auf Inhalte nur zu verlinken, diese selbst anbieten. Zeitungsverlage bringt das in ein Dilemma: Reichweite nutzen und an d...
