Truth (Melbourne newspaper)
Truth was a Melbourne tabloid newspaper established in 1902 as a subsidiary of Sydney's Truth. It was "a sensational weekly paper with a large circulation, delighting while shocking its readers with its frequent exposure of personal scandal and social injustice. Detailed police and court reports, illustrated by drawings and photographs of prosecutors and defendants."
Truth is most often used to mean being in accord with fact or reality, or fidelity to an original or standard. Truth may also often be used in modern contexts to refer to an idea of "truth to self," or authenticity.
The commonly understood opposite of truth is falsehood, which, correspondingly, can also take on a logical, factual, or ethical meaning. The concept of truth is discussed and debated in several contexts, including philosophy, art, and religion. Many human activities depend upon the concept, where its nature as a concept is assumed rather than being a subject of discussion; these include most (but not all) of the sciences, law, journalism, and everyday life. Some philosophers view the concept of truth as basic, and unable to be explained in any terms that are more easily understood than the concept of truth itself. Commonly, truth is viewed as the correspondence of language or thought to an independent reality, in what is sometimes called the correspondence theory of truth.
Other philosophers take this common meaning to be secondary and derivative. According to Martin Heidegger, the original meaning and essence of "Truth" in Ancient Greece was unconcealment, or the revealing or bringing of what was previously hidden into the open, as indicated by the original Greek term for truth, " Aletheia." On this view, the conception of truth as correctness is a later derivation from the concept's original essence, a development Heidegger traces to the Latin term " Veritas."
Pragmatists like C.S. Pierce take Truth to have some manner of essential relation to human practices for inquiring into and discovering Truth, with Pierce himself holding that Truth is what human inquiry would find out on a matter, if our practice of inquiry were taken as far as it could profitably go: "The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate, is what we mean by the truth..."
Various theories and views of truth continue to be debated among scholars, philosophers, and theologians. Language and words are a means by which humans convey information to one another and the method used to determine what is a "truth" is termed a criterion of truth. There are differing claims on such questions as what constitutes truth: what things are truthbearers capable of being true or false; how to define and identify truth; the roles that faith-based and empirically based knowledge play; and whether truth is subjective or objective, relative or absolute.
Friedrich Nietzsche famously suggested that an ancient, metaphysical belief in the divinity of Truth lies at the heart of and has served as the foundation for the entire subsequent Western intellectual tradition: "But you will have gathered what I am getting at, namely, that it is still a ''metaphysical faith on which our faith in science rests--that even we knowers of today, we godless anti-metaphysicians still take our fire too, from the flame lit by the thousand-year old faith, the Christian faith which was also Plato's faith, that God is Truth; that Truth is 'Divine'..."

Truth (Talisman album)
Truth was the fifth studio album by Swedish hard rock band Talisman released on 27 December 1998 by Point Music.
Marcel Jacob and Jeff Scott Soto wrote most of the material during ten days in Soto's new house in Los Angeles, after which the rest of the band (now including guitar player Pontus Norgren) joined up for a couple of weeks of rehearsals and recording of backing tracks. Drums were laid down in a small studio, and the rest was done in Soto's home studio. The mixing took place in Boston, by John Ellis.
The album was released by Point Music for Europe, and Pony Canyon in Japan. Once again there was no touring done for an album, due to the lack of interest by either label to promote the act. The album was not very well received in the press either. Despite this, there are some excellent tracks, not the least the cover of Madonna's " Frozen" which apparently became very popular in clubs throughout Europe.
" Let Me Entertain You" is a cover-version of ( Queen)'s song, " Darling Nikki" a cover-version of Prince's song and "Frozen" a cover-version of Madonna's song.

Truth is an award-winning 2009 crime fiction novel written by Peter Temple. The novel is a sequel to Temple's 2005 novel The Broken Shore, and won the Miles Franklin Award in 2010.
The book is set around the time of the Black Saturday bushfires in Victoria. Temple was in the process of writing the book, set during a hot bushfire-prone season, when the fires occurred. The disaster almost stopped him continuing, saying "I wasn't quite sure how to cope with that. I wasn't sure what kind of book I would write."
Truth (British periodical)
Truth was a British periodical publication founded by the diplomat and Liberal politician Henry Labouchère. The first issue was published on 4 January 1877. Labouchère founded the periodical after he left a virtual rival publication, The World. Truth was known for its exposures of many kinds of frauds, and was at the centre of several civil lawsuits. Although Labouchère himself contributed to Truth, it was for the most part controlled by Horace Voules in its early days.
Later in its existence, Truth was close to the Conservative Party. In 1941, it was briefly the subject of political controversy following allegations made in Parliament, but publication continued when the allegations were refuted. Later, Truth came under the direction of Collin Brooks. In its final years, it moved away from its right-wing editorial line back to the more liberal agenda of its early days. Truth ceased publication in 1957.
Truth (magazine)
Truth magazine was both a weekly magazine and a monthly reader published from 1881 until 1905 in the United States. Its subtitle was "The Brightest of Weeklies".

It was on hiatus from 1884 until 1886, and was revamped starting in 1891 under new editor Blakely Hall, who spiced up the publication by adding more pictures of women to its pages, more social satire, and color. Circulation grew to 50,000 subscribers at that point.
Originally a weekly, it transitioned to a monthly publication in 1898, among other numerous changes the publication regularly underwent to its contents and size. It ceased publication in 1905.

Usage examples of "truth".
Now, since the Lord wills that a man be reformed and regenerated in order that eternal life or the life of heaven may be his, and none can be reformed or regenerated unless good is appropriated to his will and truth to his understanding as if they were his, and only that can be appropriated which is done in freedom of the will and in accord with the reason of the understanding, no one is reformed in states of no freedom or rationality.
Inasmuch as all uses or truths and goods of charity, which a man renders to the neighbor may be rendered either according to the appearance or according to the verities of the Word, he is in fallacies if he renders them according to the appearances he has confirmed, but renders them as he should if he does so in accord with the verities.
Here Masonry pauses, and leaves its Initiates to carry out and develop these great Truths in such manner as to each may seem most accordant with reason, philosophy, truth, and his religious faith.
But, to say the truth, there is a more simple and plain method of accounting for that prodigious superiority of penetration which we must observe in some men over the rest of the human species, and one which will serve not only in the case of lovers, but of all others.
They had lied to Mr Advowson, and it was too late for me to disguise the truth from my mother.
Samuel Parris: a concern for the afflicted, a predilection to act deliberately, and a desire to determine the truth.
The simple truth evoked was, that while a committee of the house supposed that they were possessed of full and complete reports, they were supplied with only curt and crude extracts, calculated to place matters in the ministerial light, but not really affording the committee the opinions of those whose views they purported to be.
Such allegorists claimed that whoever looked beyond their obvious meaning and read them symbolically could find hidden in them the deeper truths of natural philosophy.
Whether the legend and history of this Degree are historically true, or but an allegory, containing in itself a deeper truth and a profounder meaning, we shall not now debate.
Even if destitute of any formal or official enunciation of those important truths, which even in a cultivated age it was often found inexpedient to assert except under a veil of allegory, and which moreover lose their dignity and value in proportion as they are learned mechanically as dogmas, the shows of the Mysteries certainly contained suggestions if not lessons, which in the opinion not of one competent witness only, but of many, were adapted to elevate the character of the spectators, enabling them to augur something of the purposes of existence, as well as of the means of improving it, to live better and to die happier.
They admitted that they concealed the highest truths under the veil of allegory, the more to excite the curiosity of men, and to urge them to investigation.
The Sun is neither born, dies, nor is raised to life: and the recital of these events was but an allegory, veiling a higher truth.
Thus, if not the whole truth, it is yet a large part of it, that the Heathen Pantheon, in its infinite diversity of names and personifications, was but a multitudinous, though in its origin unconscious allegory, of which physical phenomena, and principally the Heavenly Bodies, were the fundamental types.
This was the profound truth hidden in the ancient allegory and covered from the general view with a double veil.
What, then, must have been my amazement when I heard the Frenchman speak what he had just spoken, and when I could not help acknowledging that he had spoken the truth.

The gifted have an embarrassment of choices. Our next honorand, Professor Cheung Yau Kai, could have been a physician or a poet or even a singer, but, fortunately for engineering, he chose to be a civil engineer. Y.K. Cheung was born in Hong Kong in 1934 and won scholarships to both the Medical and Arts Faculties of the University of Hong Kong on the basis of his excellent results. He studied medicine for one year, after which, fired with patriotism and a desire to participate more directly in the construction of China, he returned to the Mainland to study civil engineering at the South China Institute of Technology, obtaining his B.Sc. in 1958. As it turned out, Medicine's loss became Engineering scholarship's gain, for Y.K. Cheung was to distinguish himself in his profession, becoming an international expert in his field.
He went on to obtain a Ph.D. at the University of Wales in 1964; the University subsequently awarded him a D.Sc. for publications from 1964 to 1972. In 1982 the University of Adelaide also awarded him a higher doctorate, a D.E., for publications from 1973 to 1981. He has had a long and illustrious career: starting as an Assistant Engineer in Zhengzhou in Henan Province, he went on to teach and research on four continents--Europe, North America, Australia and Asia. He has undertaken many consultancy projects as well, not just on these four continents, but on a fifth - Africa. He held his first Chair in Civil Engineering at the University of Calgary; he then went on to become Professor of Civil Engineering and Chairman of Department at the University of Adelaide. But the University of Hong Kong beckoned and because of his attachments to his family, to Hong Kong and to our University he returned, and has rendered us loyal service for what amounts to almost a quarter of a century, and he will continue to benefit the University with his teaching and research expertise. Even now he is supervising four Ph.D. students.
He returned to be Professor and Head of Civil Engineering, becoming the year after his arrival Dean of Engineering and Architecture, and then Dean of Engineering when Architecture became a separate unit. In all he held the Deanship for over nine years, until he went on to become Pro-Vice-Chancellor in 1988, remaining in that role until the end of 1998. While serving as Pro-Vice-Chancellor Professor Cheung took on for a two-year period the post of Acting Registrar. From July 1996 until the present Professor Cheung has been Acting Deputy Vice-Chancellor. We Chinese have a saying, "The capable have to carry the burden of much labour". This is certainly the case with Professor Cheung who performed all his onerous administrative duties while carrying a heavy load of teaching, supervision and research. And all this was combined with other professional commitments.
He has left a lasting mark on his department; Y.K. Cheung is justly proud of having built the Civil Engineering Department up to a level when it can lay claim to being a world-class department which has achieved international recognition and won abundant research funding. It attracts top-notched students and provides consultants for major engineering projects. Professor Cheung has always taken his role as guiding spirit of his department very seriously; he has worked hard to find donors for scholarships for deserving students, organized international conferences and facilitated exchange between our University and those on the Mainland.
During the course of his long and fruitful career Professor Cheung has successfully supervised 24 Ph.D.'s, 15 M.Phil.'s and 9 Postdoctoral Fellows. His students are active all over Europe, America, Asia and Australia, many holding prominent positions as engineering scholars. "Let those teach others who themselves excel." Y.K. Cheung has taught thousands and he himself most certainly excels. His record of achievement as a researcher and practitioner more than speaks for itself.
He is internationally recognized for his distinguished research achievements in the field of computational mechanics. An early achiever, he started his research career in 1962, at a time when the electronic computer development was still in its infancy; he was one of the pioneers in developing the Finite Element Method particular to plate and shell analysis. In 1965 he completed his research project relating to plate on elastic half space and proposed the combination of the finite element method and stiffness analysis of the elastic foundation. This method was later expanded in use. He co-authored the first finite element method text and wrote the first finite element software and applied it to the analysis of the Clywedog Dam in Wales. He proposed the finite strip method and published the first book on this method, a book which was subsequently translated into Chinese. Professor Cheung has also done ground-breaking research into strong nonlinear vibration analysis. To date Y.K. Cheung has authored or co-authored ten reference texts, 291 international refereed journal papers and 132 conference papers, 17 of them being keynote or invited papers. He is also editor of 9 international conference proceedings. According to a reliable survey the number of Professor Cheung's citations at the time of the survey already exceeded 3.400.
Y.K. Cheung has also more than proved his mettle in the field as an engineering practitioner. His consulting experience spans continents: the projects on which he has acted as consultant include the analysis of Clywedog Dam in Wales, Niger Dam in Africa, the Ecofisk Oil Tank in the North Sea, St Clouds Bridge in France, a seepage analysis of Crowchild Trail in Canada and - closer to home - a wind load analysis of a thirty-three storey building model on Robinson Road. He has participated as Chairman, co-chairman or vice-chairman or member on international committees of almost 100 international conferences and has delivered some twenty keynote or invited speeches worldwide. It is physically tiring just to leaf through the record of his achievements.
He still finds time to serve on the editorial boards of learned journals, not just in a nominal capacity but giving full measure of his time and expertise. I do not propose to give an exhaustive list: he serves as the Australasian editor of the Journal of Sound and
Vibration and is the Chairman of the editorial board of Thin Walled Structures and issue editor of Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials.
Y.K. Cheung has also taken time from his punishing schedule to take part in public service, making use of his knowledge and experience. He was a Member of the Consultative Committee of the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Committee for the Election Republic of China, a Hong Kong Affairs Advisor and also Member of the Selection of the Provisional Legislature and Chief Executive Officer of the SAR of Hong Kong. He has served and is still serving on other committees requiring his expertise and experience, for example, the Government's Consultative Committee on the New Airport and Related Projects, and the Jockey Club Research and Information Centre for Landslip Prevention and Land Development. Professor Cheung also participates in the activities of professional and learned societies - he is, for example, Vice-President of the International Association for Computational Mechanics and Senior Vice-President of the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers. Since 1995 he has been a Trustee of the Croucher Foundation.
A man of Y.K. Cheung's ability and energy and achievements can hardly fail to win recognition, and the record of his awards and honours is impressive indeed. Again I shall only attempt a partial listing. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering in 1987; he was awarded the National Science Award (China) in 1990 for pioneering the development and application of the finite strip method and won the Concrete Society Award (UK) in 1994. He was awarded an OBE in 1995. Y.K. Cheung is certainly an honourable man - a man laden with honours. He has an Honorary Doctorate from the Shanghai University of Technology, an Honorary Fellowship from the University College of Swansea; he is an Honorary Fellow, the Hong Kong Institution of Engineers and of the Singapore Structural Steel Society. He holds Honorary Professorships at no less than 16 institutions. Last year alone he received Honorary Professorships from the University of Sydney, the China University of Geosciences and Nanjing University. He also received a most coveted accolade: he was elected as Member of the prestigious Chinese Academy of Sciences in November 1999.
The account of Cheung Yau Kai's career and achievements may leave one feeling not a little awed, but Y.K. wears his intellect and his abilities lightly. A familiar figure around the campus, he is jovial and friendly. He seems as proud of the quality of his bass voice, prowess at karaoke and his ability to recite poems by Li Po through Herrick to Wordsworth as of his pioneering research in the finite element method. He takes joy in simple things - hikes and music. One could say he has not missed out on the ordinary pleasures of life - he has gathered "his rosebuds...", as it were. The University lost a distinguished alumnus when Y.K. Cheung forsook his medical studies with us way back in 1954; we are now availing ourselves of the opportunity to claim him as one of our own. Mr. Pro-Chancellor, in recognition of his distinguished career as an engineering scholar, for his contributions to public service and for his outstanding service to the University I call upon you to confer on Professor Cheung Yau Kai the degree of Doctor of Science, honoris causa.

For my first post as your new events blogger, I'd like to take the chance to visit one little slice of life. The place was The Thunderbird Cafe in Lawrenceville, the time was Friday, November 16th at about 9:20. I'd never been to Thunderbird before, but I did know that I was there to see a folk band from Butler. Such a show would certainly attract a particular type of fan, right?
I walked in to a somewhat normal-looking, unassuming Butler St bar. Past the front bar, past the pool table, which sat there balls-out and sticks on table while others lined the walls of the room and chatted with each other. As if to allow room for a game of pool, but nobody was interested in playing. I walked up a set of stairs to the music venue. Now this is where the magic happens. I'm now surrounded by people wearing bowties and suspenders. No, they weren't with the band. I had also happened to wear a bowtie this particular evening, but I didn't put it on thinking that others would also have them.
The walls behind the stage are illuminated murals painted to look like one were standing right in the middle of Butler St, watching an outdoor show on a summer afternoon. It's only a few minutes before the opening act takes the stage: Leann Grimes. He's a one-man act with an electric guitar and a laptop plugged into the speakers, but the sounds that float out for those first 30 minutes are as carefully planned and lovely as any singer/songwriter's.
I migrated upstairs after Leann Grimes to get a drink and mingle with my friends. It's at this point that we realize there are kazoos sitting on the tables. As in — every table has a kazoo, please take one. Don't mind if I do!
By the time The Armadillos took the stage, I was already having a ridiculously fun time playing my kazoo and chatting with who I assume was the only other die-hard metalhead in the bar, that I had to be reminded of what I was there for in the first place.
As expected, The Armadillos put on a lovely, energetic, magnetizing performance. A little old, a little new, and all over as wonderful a performance as I've ever seen. The merch table was well-stocked and the band were ready in the wings to chat with the night's guests. I'm hoping that everyone else who attended the show felt like I did when they saw the new album on that merch table for only $10. Handed to me with a smile from the band's frontman, Austin. I love to throw my support behind local acts, but The Armadillos deserve more than just my approval. Their music would be right at home on SiriusXM or cranked out your car window while you drive down Center Ave.


Self published author, David Horn talks about the book that's impacted him the most.
Jon Rance is the author of Happy Endings and This Thirtysomething Life.
Today, Jon talks about the book that has had the most impact on him..
There have been quite a few books that have influenced me over the years from the brilliant Catcher in the Rye as a teenager, to Mike Gayle's Turning Thirty, but today I'm going to talk about One Day by David Nicholls.
For those who haven't read it (which is probably no-one), it's a heartbreaking, funny, poignant, and romantic book following two people (Dex and Em) over twenty years on the same day each year.
The reason this book had such a huge impact on me is because it wasn't just wonderfully written, the characters weren't just incredibly well thought out and the plot wasn't just gripping, but above all that it had this perfect and novel idea at the heart of it. Two people. Twenty years. One day.
Bella picks the book that's impacted her the most.
This is a very difficult question to answer. A few obvious answers immediately flew to mind, like the Boden catalogue as this is a book that impacts my bank balance on an all too frequent occurrence. A little more thought brought my favourite childhood book to the fore which was 'The One Hundred and One Dalmatians' by Doddie Smith although the only real impact I think that book has had is my compulsion for things that are spotty (see earlier reference to Boden addiction).
There was a chicklit book that I once read that when I had persevered to the end it gave me the encouragement that if they had been published then I at least stood I fighting chance – book and author will of course remain nameless.
When you sit down and really think about it, it's amazing how many books you have read and loved and remember fondly. I love a bit of poetry so Wendy Cope would always make it into my top five books but to choose just one is a hard task.
Trisha Ashley talks about a book she's read that's made an impact on her.
One of the most memorable books I've read recently is Leah Fleming's novel, The Captain's Daughter. The story begins with the sinking of the Titanic and something that happens amid the ensuing carnage and confusion, which will have repercussions that echo down decades.
The sheer size of Vikram Seth's A Suitable Boy creates an impact. Its fat spine takes up four books-worth of space on the shelf. I took this monster thirteen hundred page novel with me on holiday twenty years ago and although I was in Italy, for much of the time I was transported to India.
Rebecca is the author of On The Air. Today, she talks about the book that has made an impact on her.
I moved house recently, and when faced with my monolith-like bookshelf I decided it was time for a little cull. A few books that I had read once and enjoyed were tossed (sorry: placed, lovingly) into a hessian bag and ferried across the road to the local Age Concern shop, but there was one book I knew I wouldn't have parted with in a million years.
I first met Captain Corelli and his mandolin at college (steady on, I'll make the jokes). I'd been given a beautiful virgin copy of the book ready for my annotations, and as a class we began to read through certain chapters in class, ending each 'lecture' as we called it with a series of questions on each chapter. This method had been practiced before with many texts from Shakespeare to McEwan. Normally the books you study at college or uni are groundbreaking and vastly important, but oftentimes boring and irrelevant; especially for a lovelorn sixteen-year-old who thought her life made up the centre of the whole universe.
Sue Moorcroft is the author of Want to Know a Secret, Starting Over and Is This Love?
Dream a Little Dream. When I chose to give Dominic Christy the neurological condition of narcolepsy, which causes uncontrolled sleep, I hadn't realised what a fantastical and hard-to-understand condition it is. I became a research junkie and in September 2013, Narcolepsy UK asked me to speak at their conference about why I wrote that book and how I did my research. Quite a few people with narcolepsy have now read Dream and they seem to feel that I've done OK with my portrayal. Satisfying.
