<mask> (26 March 194619 May 2020), better known as <mask>, was an Indian-born Canadian-American Christian evangelical minister and apologist who founded Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM). He was involved in Christian apologetics for a period spanning more than forty years. Zacharias was the author of more than thirty books on Christianity, He also hosted the radio programs Let My People Think and Just Thinking. He belonged to the Christian and Missionary Alliance, the Keswickian Christian denomination in which he was ordained as a minister. Multiple sources have posthumously accused Zacharias of serious sexual misconduct. In February 2021 Miller & Martin, the law firm hired by RZIM to look into these allegations, confirmed their veracity. As a result, RZIM issued an apology and subsequently announced that it would undergo a name change and remove all material related to Zacharias.The Christian and Missionary Alliance posthumously revoked his ordination after conducting their own investigation. HarperCollins, which owns the Christian publishers Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, also confirmed that it would take his books out of print and remove him from other published works. Early life and education
<mask> was born on 26 March 1946 in Madras, British India, and grew up in Delhi. He spoke Hindi fluently, the only Indian language that he knew. Zacharias' family was Anglican, but he was a "skeptic" until the age of 17 when he tried to commit suicide by swallowing poison. While he was in the hospital, a local Christian worker brought him a Bible and told his mother to read to him from John 14, which contains Jesus' words to Thomas the Apostle. Zacharias said it was John 14:19 that touched him as the defining

 paradigm, "Because I live, you also will live", and that he thought, "This may be my only hope: A new way of living.Life as defined by the Author of Life." Zacharias committed his life to Christ, praying that "Jesus if you are the one who gives life as it is meant to be, I want it. Please get me out of this hospital bed well, and I promise I will leave no stone unturned in my pursuit of truth." In 1966, Zacharias emigrated with his family to Canada, earning his undergraduate degree from the Ontario Bible College in 1972 (now Tyndale University) and his M.Div. from Trinity International University in 1976. In 1990 he participated in guided study at Ridley Hall, a Church of England theological school in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England. Career

Ministry

Zacharias spent the summer of 1971 in South Vietnam, where he evangelized U.S. soldiers as well as imprisoned Viet Cong members.After graduating from Ontario Bible College, he began an itinerant ministry with the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) in Canada. In 1974 the C&MA sent him to Cambodia, where he preached only a short time before its fall to the Khmer Rouge. He was later ordained by the C&MA in 1980, and between 1980 and 1984 he taught at the C&MA-affiliated Alliance Theological Seminary, where he was a professor of evangelism. In 1983, Zacharias spoke in Amsterdam at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association's first International Conference for Itinerant Evangelists. After Amsterdam, he spent the summer evangelizing in India, where he continued to see the need for apologetic ministry, both to lead people to Christ and to train Christian leaders. In August 1984, Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM) was founded in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, to

Later its headquarters were located in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, United States.In 1989, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Zacharias spoke in Moscow with students at the Lenin Military-Political Academy as well as political leaders at the Center for Geopolitical Strategy. This was the first of many evangelism events in the political sphere. Future events included one in Bogotá, Colombia, in 1993, where he spoke to members of the judiciary on the importance of having a solid moral foundation. The following year, Zacharias wrote his first book, A Shattered Visage: The Real Face of Atheism. In 1992, Zacharias spoke at his first Veritas Forum at Harvard University, and later that year was one of the keynote speakers at Urbana. He continued to be a frequent guest at these forums, both giving lectures and answering students in question-and-answer sessions at academic institutions including the University of Georgia, the University of Michigan, and Penn State. In 2004, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) opened its signature pulpit at the Salt Lake Tabernacle to Zacharias for a series of messages.He delivered a sermon on "Who Is the Truth? Defending Jesus Christ as The Way, The Truth and The Life" to some 7,000 lay-persons and scholars from both LDS and Protestant camps in an initiatory move towards open dialogue between the groups. Some evangelicals criticized Zacharias' decision not to use this opportunity to directly address the "deep and foundational" differences between the traditional Christian faith and the teachings of the LDS Church. He responded by asserting that Christians should not


texts: immediately condemn so-called the LDS Church's theological differences but "graciously build one step at a time in communicating our faith with clarity and conviction", stating that this would be just as effective as showing someone the faults of their faith. The speaking engagement was nearly sabotaged by an allegation by event organizer Greg Johnson, president of Standing Together, that Zacharias had nothing to do with editing the book The Kingdom of the Cults and had only loaned his name to the latest edition; Johnson later apologized for his comment. Zacharias was a frequent keynote lecturer within the evangelical community at events including the Future of Truth conference in 2004, the National Religious Broadcasters' Convention and Exposition in 2005, and the National Conference on Christian Apologetics in 2006. On successive nights in October 2007, he addressed first the students and faculty of Virginia Tech, then the community of Blacksburg, Virginia, on the topic of evil and suffering in the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre.Zacharias represented the evangelical community at occasions such as the National Day of Prayer in Washington, D.C., the Annual Prayer Breakfast at the United Nations, the African Union Prayer Breakfast in Maputo, Mozambique, and was named honorary chairman of the 2008 National Day of Prayer task force. He also participated in the ecumenical Together 2016 meetings, which Pope Francis addressed, describing the event as a valiant effort. In 2006, <mask> along with Wycliffe Hall established the Oxford Centre for Christian Apologetics (OCCA) in Oxfordshire, England though it is now entirely separate from Wycliffe. In November 2009, Zacharias signed the ecumenical Manhattan Declaration which

 affirms the sanctity of human life, the dignity of marriage as a union of husband and wife, and freedom of religion as foundational principles of justice and the common good. In 2016, Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio appointed Zacharias to his pro-life "Dignity of Life" advisory panel. In 2015, according to RZIM's public Form 990 tax return, Zacharias and his wife earned a combined total of $523,926 from the ministry. Worldview
Zacharias argued that a coherent worldview must be able to satisfactorily answer four questions: that of origin, meaning of life, morality, and destiny.He said that while every major religion makes exclusive claims about truth, the Christian faith is unique in its ability to answer all four of these questions. He routinely spoke on the coherence of the Christian worldview, saying that Christianity is capable of withstanding the toughest philosophical attacks. Zacharias believed that the apologist must argue from three levels: from logic to make it tenable; from feelings to make it liveable; and from whether one has the right to use it to make moral judgments. Zacharias' style of apologetics focused predominantly on Christianity's answers to life's great existential questions with defense of God. He argued that the dominance of the visual in modern communication systems has impacted people's capacity for abstract reasoning altering their way of perceiving things; however, the integration of abstract reasoning into one's worldview is important to have its base grounded in absolutes rather than on relative feelings and fads. Academic credential controversies
In an earlier edition of his biography and in other literature, Zacharias claimed to have studied at the University of Cambridge


texts: and was a visiting professor at the University of Oxford. In multiple speaking engagements he said that he had taken a class in quantum mechanics under John Polkinghorne and while a visiting scholar at Cambridge had heard Stephen Hawking lecture, seeing him struggle between agnosticism and theism.Zacharias often claimed in books and sermons that he was invited to be a visiting scholar at Cambridge, where he focused his studies on Romantic writers and moralist philosophers. The veracity of Zacharias's purported academic positions at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge was questioned. Christian academic Warren Throckmorton stated that Zacharias "wasn't being truthful" in his claims, pointing out that he had been a visiting scholar at Ridley Hall, a theology school in the city of Cambridge which is unaffiliated with the university. Atheist commentator Steve Baughman also ran a website exposing how Zacharias exaggerated his qualifications. In 2017, Christianity Today reported accusations that Zacharias had exaggerated his academic credentials; for instance that he had referred to himself in multiple articles and videos with the title "Doctor" or "Dr.", despite lacking a PhD qualification. In response, Zacharias said he had been "conferred ten honorary doctorates" and said further that "in <mask>'s homeland of India… honorific titles are customary and are used frequently out of respect for elders, including by the RZIM India team when addressing <mask>." In a statement, RZIM indicated that "[in] earlier years, 'Dr.'did appear before <mask>'s name in some of our materials, including on our website, which is an appropriate and acceptable practice with honorary doctorates. However, because this practice can be contentious

Both before and after his death in May 2020, allegations were put forth by multiple women that Zacharias had engaged in habitual sexual misconduct and/or abuse. Ruth Malhotra, a former member of RZIM, claims that suspicions regarding Zacharias' behavior had existed during his lifetime but that RZIM employees were not allowed to investigate. Lori Anne Thompson's lawsuit
In April 2017, Canadians Lori Anne and Brad Thompson sent a demand letter to Zacharias requiring him to pay $5 million in exchange for them refraining from filing a lawsuit that would have accused him of impropriety. Their evidence included text exchanges, which included nude photos sent by Thompson to Zacharias.In response, Zacharias filed a RICO lawsuit against accusing the couple of extortion. The case was settled in November 2017 with a non-disclosure agreement. In a statement issued on December 3, 2017, Zacharias said, "Let me state categorically that I never met [Thompson] alone, publicly or privately. The question is not whether I solicited or sent any illicit photos or messages to [her]—I did not, and there is no evidence to the contrary—but rather, whether I should have been a willing participant in any extended communication with a woman, not my wife. The answer, I can unequivocally say, is no, and I fully accept responsibility." He added that he had been "absolutely faithful" to his wife throughout their marriage, but acknowledged that he "failed to exercise wise caution and to protect [himself] from even the appearance of impropriety". 2020 abuse allegations and

 preliminary report
Four months after Zacharias' death in 2020, three women who worked at two day spas he had co-owned in the Atlanta area came forward alleging that he had sexually harassed multiple massage therapists over the course of five years.According to Christianity Today, Zacharias masturbated in front of one of the women more than fifty times, requested explicit photos of her, and asked for sex on at least two occasions. Other women claimed that Zacharias had inappropriately groped or fondled them. A former business partner, Anurag Sharma, expressed regret at not stopping Zacharias and issued an apology to one of the alleged victims in the Christianity Today article. RZIM initially denied the claims, but subsequently hired the law firm Miller & Martin to conduct an investigation. Miller & Martin engaged the services of a private investigation firm consisting of former federal law enforcement officers. The investigators interviewed more than fifty people, including more than a dozen massage therapists, and accessed data from four mobile devices used by Zacharias. On December 23, 2020, RZIM confirmed that the allegations were true and released a preliminary report from the investigation, which concluded:

Full report and subsequent allegations
On 11 February 2021, RZIM released the full results of its investigation, concluding that there was credible evidence that Zacharias had engaged in sexual misconduct.Accordingly, it was found that Zacharias solicited and received sexually explicit photos from more than 200 women who were in their early twenties until a few months before his death in 2020. According to investigators, Zacharias also used thousands of dollars of ministry funds which had been dedicated to a

On Zacharias' financial irregularities, The Gospel Coalition further reported that RZIM would pay rent for Zacharias to stay at his own apartment while in Bangkok. They wrote,

Christianity Today while reporting on the findings wrote that,

Vicki Blue maintains that Zacharias threatened to make her and her daughter Becca (who was also abused) miserable if she disclosed abuse. She stated,  “<mask> kept talking about an anonymous donor that he could get limitless money from,” Blue said. “He said, ‘I can keep it going and make your life miserable until you die.’”  Blue said initially Zacharias helped a great deal over her spiritual confusion and she thought he was, “the closest person to God other than Jesus.”  Later Zacharias maintained his marriage was unsatisfactory and maintained Blue was “his soulmate” and he, “couldn’t survive without (her),”  Blue maintains Zacharias put his hand into her groin and continued sexual advances after she said, “no”. Zacharias exposed himself and masturbated in front of her 50 to 100 times, he twice asked her to have sex but she refused.At the time Blue believed Zacharias was in love with her. She claims she was confused and vulnerable, stating, “It’s hard to explain. When someone gives you spiritual advice and you know everything he says about God is true, yet he’s also doing these things to you—it took years of therapy to realize I didn’t do anything wrong.”  Blue was persuaded to open a spa with Zacharias as a co-owner and it failed financially. Blue maintains her daughter Becca said

 Zacharias molested her and six other spa therapists also complained he had done something perverted or molested them. “I realized then how much I had been used and manipulated,” Blue stated. In an interview, Shirley Steward, a retired Ontario Provincial Police Officer, recounts that <mask>, who was already a Christian minister at the time, pressured her to have an abortion after she became pregnant as a teenager by his brother Ramesh. Repercussions
In their release of the full report, the board of RZIM stated that it was "shocked and grieved by <mask>'s actions", and apologized to his victims: "Words cannot come close to expressing the sorrow that we feel for what you have been through or the gratitude we feel for the bravery with which you have responded."Carson Weitnauer, a former RZIM employee, referred to Zacharias "one of [his generation's] greatest frauds," a "sexual predator", and a "uniquely charismatic manipulator." On 12 February 2021, Zacharias Trust, the UK branch of RZIM, decided to change its name and cut ties to the parent ministry, criticizing their response to the scandal as inadequate. By 24 February, RZIM Africa had suspended its operations while RZIM itself scaled back its website. On 8 March, RZIM stated it would alter its name and remove all material related to Zacharias. As a result of falling donations, RZIM decided to make 60% of its workforce worldwide redundant and changed from running evangelists and apologists to making grants to other organizations, supporting evangelism and "the prevention of and caring for victims of sexual abuse." In addition, RZIM Canada began winding down operations. On 19 February 2021, the Alliance World Fellowship revoked Zacharias' ordination after its own

 investigation confirmed a "pattern of predatory behaviour."HarperCollins Christian Publishing, which includes Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, confirmed that it would no longer sell books by Zacharias and that it was working with Christian author Lee Strobel to remove Zacharias from other works. In early August 2021, the Brad Sohn Law Firm filed a lawsuit on behalf of several former RZIM donors, including NFL player Derek Carrier and his wife Dora, seeking the return of donations they had given to RZIM between 2004 and 9 February 2021. The plaintiffs asserted that they donated to RZIM believing it was to finance spreading the Christian message when in fact the money financed Zacharias' predatory behavior. Personal life
On 7 May 1972, Zacharias married Margaret "Margie" Reynolds, whom he met at his church's youth group. They had three children, Sarah, Nathan, and Naomi. He lived in Atlanta, Georgia. In March 2020, Zacharias was diagnosed with a malignant and rare cancer in his spine, and on 19 May 2020, he died at his home in Atlanta at the age of 74.Following his death, a number of high-profile Christians posted messages online detailing Zacharias's influence upon them. White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany and U.S. Vice President Mike Pence were among many who expressed their sympathies for Zacharias following his death. Bibliography

<mask> (1922 – January 26, 1990) was a Canadian religious leader. He served as the Anglican Bishop of Toronto from 1972 to 1989 and was the Archbishop of the ecclesiastical province of Ontario from 1979 to 1985. Early life

<mask> was born in Edmonton, Alberta, the son of an unemployed carpenter. Raised in a non-religious environment, he became a practising Christian after being taken to Bible class at age seventeen. He received a Bachelor's Degree at the University of Alberta in 1943 and later earned a theological degree from Wycliffe College in Toronto. He spent twenty-two years as a priest in the city before being elected as an assistant bishop in 1968. Bishop of Toronto

In 1972, he was chosen as the ninth Bishop of Toronto.In this capacity, he presided over a diocese of 160,000 people, the largest in Canada. He became an archbishop in 1979. When the Anglican Diocese of Toronto was divided into five regions in 1980, <mask> himself was given charge of the downtown division. <mask> was a frequent guest at official state functions, and in October 1982 he conducted the funeral ceremonies for former premier John Robarts. Views on the Church in Canadian society

<mask> argued in 1982 that the Anglican Church should stop performing civil marriage ceremonies. Saying that the church should not act as a "cheap auxiliary to the state," he called for Canadian marriages to consist of a civil marriage performed by the state with the additional option of a "service of blessing" for those who wish it. At the time, <mask>'s views were considered controversial.He acknowledged in 1986 that the Anglican Church had only limited influence in Canada's "comfortable" society, saying that it had more authority in places like South Africa where it was the victim of persecution. He rejected the suggestion that the church could

 rebrand itself in the manner of American televangelists, saying "I don't think you can sell religion like soap." In 1988, he accepted a court ruling that ended compulsory recitations of the Lord's Prayer in Ontario public schools. In 1983, Garnsworthy and Community and Social Services Minister Frank Drea signed an agreement for the Government of Ontario and various churches to provide housing, meals, and day programs for poor and mentally ill individuals. The role of women within the Church

<mask> initially opposed the ordination of women, but later reversed his position and became a proponent of the policy. LGBT issues

In 1979, <mask> defended the Anglican Church's decision to accept openly gay priests on condition that such individuals not participate in same-sex sexual activity. He argued that the decision was not a change of policy for the church and that equivalent restrictions existed for heterosexual priests in relationships out of wedlock.Brent Hawkes of the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto cautiously accepted the Anglican Church's decision as a step forward, although he added that the requirement for celibacy would still result in gay priests being closeted. Separate school funding

<mask> took part in a high-profile dispute with the Government of Ontario from 1984 to 1986, after Progressive Conservative premier Bill Davis made a surprise decision to fund Ontario's public and Catholic high schools on an equal footing. (The province had previously funded Catholic education only as far as Grade Ten.) <mask> strongly opposed the decision and wrote an article complaining that the religious and moral values of the Roman Catholic Church had in effect been given official state sanction. In particular, he wrote that he did not accept the Catholic positions on family planning, contraception,

texts: and abortion, nor did he accept the church's claim to be the sole arbiter of religious truth. Some believe that this intervention had the effect of dividing the funding issue along religious lines. <mask> responded that he was not anti-Catholic and did not want to revive sectarian conflicts from the nineteenth century, but that he believed in and wanted to defend Ontario's public education system.During the 1985 provincial election, <mask> accused Davis of changing the province's education system in the same manner as Adolf Hitler in 1930s Germany. He declined to withdraw the analogy, saying "This is how Hitler changed education in Germany, by exactly the same process, by decree. I won't take that back." (He later clarified that he was not comparing Davis with Hitler in a more general sense.) Frank Miller, who had by this time succeeded Davis as premier and was continuing his funding policy, described the comment as "odious" and "totally unfounded." Many believe this controversy caused significant damage for the Progressive Conservatives in the 1985 election, costing them support among their historically strong constituency of Anglican voters. David Rotenberg, a cabinet minister defeated in his bid for re-election, remarked, "I think [<mask>] would probably get the Ian Paisley award of the year because his speech certainly made it respectable to be anti-Catholic."The Progressive Conservatives actually won the election by a narrow margin and formed a minority government afterwards, but lost power two months later after being defeated on a confidence vote in the legislature. The new government of Liberal premier David Peterson continued Davis and Miller's support for full Catholic school funding, and <mask> continued his battle against the legislation. In 1986, <mask> argued that teachers applying for

 positions in the Catholic system should not be required to have a letter of recommendation from a priest; his position was that this requirement prevented non-Catholics from seeking a publicly funded office. Despite his efforts, full funding was extended to Catholic schools by the Peterson government. Other views

<mask> defended Ontario's Sunday shopping laws in 1986 and argued that store owners who violated the laws were exploiting their non-unionized employees. In 1987, he spoke against a proposal to re-institute the death penalty in Canada. <mask> spoke in support of AIDS victims in 1987, saying that they have a right to pastoral care within the church community and expressing concern at "fear and ignorance abroad about AIDS."Final years

<mask> did not seek re-election to his provincial office in 1985. He retired as Bishop of Toronto in 1989; in his last address, he called on the various churches of Toronto to work together and take a greater role in combatting social ills. <mask> underwent surgery to remove a cancerous lung in July 1983. He died in January 1990. The <mask> Residence on Toronto's Dufferin Street is named in his honour. References

In the role, he caused controversy by proposing mergers first between Chinese University and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and later between Chinese University and the Hong Kong Institute of Education. <mask>'s appointment by CY Leung to the governing board of the University of Hong Kong in 2015 has been met with strong criticism, particularly from academic staff (mostly pro-democrats): a poll has shown most to have little to no confidence that <mask> will uphold academic freedom. Further, <mask>'s general attitude towards staff has been said to be 'hostile' and 'critical'. Six months later, when it became known that <mask> was likely to take over the chairmanship of the Council upon the expiry of the term of Edward Leong on 6 November, there was further strong opposition, with 87 percent of members of HKU Academic Staff Association and almost three-quarters of members of the Professional Teachers Union opposed, due to his stance during the University of Hong Kong pro-vice-chancellor selection controversy. In December 2018, <mask> was reappointed for a second three-year term to the Council. His reappointment elicited criticism from the Hong Kong University Students' Union.Academic Staff Association chairman William Cheung Sing-wai expressed that "there has been a chilling effect" during <mask>'s tenure. In December 2021, <mask> criticized Hong Kong's Pillar of Shame, calling it a lie and claiming it was not built to honour those killed in the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre. Reputation

From 2015 to 2019, he was a member of the Oslo City Council, representing the Labour Party.He later left the Labour party to form a new political party called Sentrum. Early life and education
<mask> <mask> was born 7 June 1964 in Hønefoss, in the Ringerike district in Buskerud county. His family name originates from Lippestad farm in Tomter in Østfold. His great grandfather Carl Thorvald <mask> left the farm and relocated to Oslo at the end of the 19th century. <mask>'s parents, originally from Nordstrand in Oslo had moved to the village of Heradsbygd outside of Hønefoss, where his father worked as an engineer. When <mask> was six years old, the family of five moved back to Nordstrand. After finishing high school he enrolled in the University of Oslo, studying law.He obtained the cand.jur. degree in the autumn of 1990. Legal career
After graduating and receiving his law degree in 1990, <mask> was employed at a small law-firm in Harestua, a small rural town outside of Oslo. Later he moved to the Association of Norwegian Insurance Companies, where he worked as a legal counsel. Afterwards he, along with a colleague, started a private law-firm based in Nedre Slottsgate street in down-town Oslo. It was while working here that <mask> first came to the national spotlight, when he represented Ole Nicolai Kvisler, who

 was later convicted of participation in the racially motivated murder of Benjamin Hermansen in 2002. Kvisler received a 17-year prison sentence.Three years later, <mask> left the firm when he was appointed secretary-general at the National Association of the Hearing Impaired (), <mask> applied to this position due to his daughter Rebekka, who was born with a severe hearing impairment. In 2009 he was one of the contenders for the position of Gender Equality and Anti-Discrimination Ombud, but lost to Sunniva Ørstavik. He then decided to return to private practice and in 2010 he opened his own law-firm called Advokatkontoret Lippestad AS. The 22 July trial

In July 2011, he was appointed as defence counsel for Anders Behring Breivik, the perpetrator of the 2011 Norway attacks, after the latter specifically requested him. His co-lead counsel was Vibeke Hein Bæra, and they were assisted by assistant counsels Tord Jordet and Odd Ivar Grøn, both of whom are employed at his law firm. Before the trial <mask> told the French newspaper Le Monde: "I feel I have lost my soul in this case [...] I hope to get it back once it's over – and that it will be in the same condition as before." At the trial, <mask> chose not to argue for the innocence of his client, although Breivik himself had specifically requested to be acquitted due to the legal principle of necessity.In his closing arguments, <mask> asked only for his client to be found sane and to be sentenced leniently without mentioning the subject of culpability. In a bizarre moment of confusion, the presiding judge Wenche Elizabeth Arntzen asked <mask> if he would request an acquittal for his client, to which <mask> replied that he would not. Breivik then interceded and told <mask>; "You've got to do it!" after which <mask> formally requested an acquittal. Although <mask> successfully argued before the court that his client was legally sane and competent, Breivik was found guilty and sentenced to the maximum penalty of 21 years in containment. The prosecution had asked for Breivik to be formally

 acquitted and found legally insane, and sentenced to mandatory psychiatric confinement. This was rejected by the court.After the sentencing of Breivik, <mask> formally transferred the legal responsibility of his client within the law-firm to Tord Jordet, thereby ceasing to be his official defence attorney. After Breivik

Following the Breivik case, <mask> experienced a significant increase in financial revenue. He expanded his law-firm, hired new staff and opened another branch in Skien, which would serve as the main office, in addition to the office in down-town Oslo. In January 2014, the law firm Lippestad signed a contract with the Norwegian Police Federation, the trade union organizing all employees in the police sector in Norway. The agreement included assisting with all types of legal issues that members would have. It also included legal representation in cases where police officers are accused of criminal offences, as well as <mask> holding lectures and speaking at events organized by the Police Federation. Activism

Politics
<mask> is an active member of the Norwegian Labour Party, and has been deputy chair of its Nordstrand local chapter.In April 2013, he was invited as a keynote speaker at the annual Labour party congress. During his speech to the delegates, he spoke about humanity and human values. He sharply criticised the treatment of Roma people in the city of Oslo. In December 2013, <mask> was appointed chairman of the new left-wing think tank Agenda. The think-tank was established with support from the trade union centre as well as the Labour party and intended as a left-wing counter-weight to the influential liberal think-tank Civita. In 2014 it was revealed that the Labour Party was considering <mask> as a mayoral candidate for Oslo in the 2015 local elections due to him being a highly respected person who could possibly rival the popular incumbent conservative mayor Fabian Stang. The Labour party had not had a mayor of Oslo in 20 years, and a majority of the Oslo chapter felt that <mask> possessed the "broad appeal"

In its citation, the jury wrote that the <mask> couple reflects a set of values where respect and an unwavering belief in human life, no matter what situation you are in, is the basis.At the event, <mask> called for a reduction in the number of abortions. He also spoke out against what he believes is an expectation from society that parents should abort fetuses with genetic disorders.

 in the Nordstrand suburb in southern Oslo. Two of the children were born with disabilities and one of them, 16-year-old Rebekka, was critically ill early in 2012, in the midst of <mask>'s preparations for the Breivik trial. She pulled through the crisis which also coincided with <mask>'s wife giving birth to a baby girl, Mille Madicken. Rebekka died on June 14, 2013.Controversy
In the aftermath of the 22-July trial, <mask> caused controversy when he wrote a book about the trial called "That which we may stand for" (). In the book <mask> included full conversations which he had between himself and Breivik, which took place within the prison in full confidentiality. The book caused fierce reaction and condemnation from the legal establishment in Norway, some calling the book illegal. <mask> defended himself and the book by stating that Breivik had absolved him of the attorney-client privilege, as well as given him permission to write the book. Many high-profile attorneys as well as legal scholars were of the opinion that <mask> had breached the attorney-client privilege as well being disloyal to his client. The leader of the Norwegian Bar Association Berit Reiss-Andersen accused <mask> of exploiting his role as a defence attorney in order to create "another platform for himself in the public sphere". Other lawyers called the book "social pornography" and "an obvious breach of ethics".The Association of Defence Attorneys () unanimously voted to refer the case to the Bar Association's Main Board for possible sanctions. The board subsequently ordered <mask> to send a formal reply explaining his case within three weeks, which he did. After formally hearing the case, the Main Board unanimously ruled that <mask> had not breached legal ethics, thereby avoiding sanctions. Honours and awards

He moved to the National Hockey League (NHL) after the collapse of professional hockey in the west, and finished his career playing with the Chicago Black Hawks, Pittsburgh Pirates and Boston Bruins. A gifted scorer, <mask> led the PCHA in goals three times, assists twice, and was the league's all-time leading scorer upon its demise. Lester Patrick called him the greatest centre to ever play in the coast league; he was named to the PCHA or WCHL first team all-star on seven occasions, and to the second team three times. <mask> won the Stanley Cup twice during his career: first with the Millionaires in 1915 and later with the Bruins in 1929. In 1952, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Early life
Duncan "<mask><mask> was born in Chesley, Ontario on May 21, 1894.He grew up on the family farm in Bruce County, near Chesley.

However, making what he described as a "sixth sense hunch", Patrick wrote a second letter inviting <mask> to try out for his team in Vancouver. Patrick doubted <mask>'s ability the first time he saw him practice, but was convinced the second time around. He signed <mask> to a contract for the 1914–15 PCHA season on November 3, 1914. <mask> made his professional debut on December 8, playing on a line with Frank Nighbor and Ken Mallen and scored a hat trick in his first game.

Calgary media suggested that <mask> was one of the players who had informed Patrick of the situation in Alberta, a charge that he denied. On the ice, he helped lead the Millionaires to the 1921 Stanley Cup Finals, which they lost to the Ottawa Senators in five games. Remaining a top scorer in the PCHA, <mask> led the league in assists with 12 in 1921–22 and in goals with 21 in 1923–24. The PCHA merged with the Western Canada Hockey League (WCHL) prior to the 1924–25 season, and <mask> led the WCHL in scoring with 27 goals that season. <mask> was named a WCHL first team all-star in 1925 and 1926.The Western League collapsed following the 1925–26 season, and <mask>'s contract was sold to the newly formed Chicago Black Hawks in the National Hockey League.

 his contemporaries as one of the top players of his time. Lester Patrick praised his abilities: "He was perhaps the greatest centre we ever had on the coast. <mask> was a great crowd pleaser. He was clean, splendidly courageous, a happy player with a stylish way of going. He was one of those who helped make pro hockey a great game." His greatest limitation was his size, standing five foot nine and around 162 pounds; he frequently battled through injuries and missed many games throughout his career as a result. His nickname, "the wee Scot", was in reference to his diminutive size.Later life

He joined the paper's staff in 1987. <mask> has written for a wide variety of publications, including Esquire, The Washington Post, The New York Times Sunday Magazine, Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated, Details, Men's Journal, National Lampoon and Spy. He has also written for web sites, including Salon and Forbes.com. Early life and education

<mask> was born to a Jewish family in Ohio and raised in Berea, Ohio. He moved to Chicago to attend Northwestern University from where he graduated in 1982 with a journalism degree. <mask>'s father, Robert, spent most of his career with NASA, working there for 30 years studying lasers, subatomic particles and weather patterns.Career

<mask> began his career working in Los Angeles in public relations. He returned to the Chicago area, where he freelanced and began his journalism career in Chicago's suburbs, working for the Barrington Courier-Review. He later wrote for the now-defunct Wheaton Daily Journal newspaper, but was fired after writing a column that made fun of the paper's publisher. <mask> joined the Chicago Sun-Times in 1987. In 1996, after an extended paternity leave, he began writing three columns a week for the paper and serving on the paper's editorial board. For two years starting in 1995, <mask> wrote the "Bobwatch" column in the Chicago Reader alternative weekly newspaper, skewering the columns written by the Chicago Tribunes Bob Greene. He authored the column using the nom de plume Ed Gold, a name he also used for the Reader's True Books column.After Greene was fired by the Tribune in 2002 for engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a high school girl who had come to his office to interview him for her school newspaper, <mask> wrote an article for Salon.com

 in September 2002 that mocked Greene and concluded with the line "Who will we make fun of now?" In 2005, <mask> began writing columns on the side for the New York Daily News. After his arrest for domestic abuse in 2005, <mask> was dropped from the Sun-Times' editorial board but added a fourth column per week. In 2013 <mask> was inducted into the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame as a Friend of the Community. In June 2013, <mask>'s column in the Sun-Times was cut from four days a week to one. Crain's Chicago Business reported that the move came after a controversial column by Steinberg that then-Sun-Times Editor Jim Kirk had criticized for reading like an ad for a car time-share company. <mask> remained with the Sun-Times writing feature articles, although he lamented to Crain's that writing just one column per week is "like trying to breathe through a straw."The column now runs Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Obituary writing

At the Sun-Times, <mask> has specialized in writing obituaries of important figures. He is a member of the Society of Professional Obituary Writers. In 2018, an advance obituary written by <mask> about Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis briefly was erroneously published online due to a production glitch. Lewis subsequently told the Chicago Tribune that "I am not dead" and that "I thought it was hilarious -- stuff happens." Lewis added that she was touched by <mask>'s first line: "Karen Lewis was fearless." She told the Tribune that "I think it's a mitzvah.But I'm not sure it's true." In 2014, <mask>, in response to a query from a reader, wrote his own advance obituary on his blog. In 2001, <mask> reflected to the Chicago Reader on the art of writing obituaries of flawed individuals: "I did one of the Greylord judges' obits. I was talking about what he went to jail for, and I used a

 phrase like 'He took cash bribes to let drunk drivers go free.' And the copy desk changed it to quote judicial corruption unquote. And then after it ran, his sister called to complain that we had treated him shabbily by focusing on this Greylord business. I went in to Nigel Wade [the editor then] and I said, 'Look what you do.By editing the story for the family you cheat the million other readers of a strong description of his crime--and the family's still pissed off. You please nobody.' I would rather cheese off the few members of the family who are unredeemably biased than write some sort of pabulum they can put in their scrapbooks and is a trivialization of the truth." (<mask> almost surely was referring to his January 1997 obituary of a high-ranking Cook County judge in Operation Greylord, Richard F. LeFevour. That obituary's lead sentence references "judicial corruption": "Richard F. LeFevour, who was convicted in the infamous Operation Greylord probe of judicial corruption in Chicago and never expressed remorse, died Saturday.") Blogging

In July 2013, <mask> created his own blog to highlight his writing apart from the Sun-Times, called everygoddamnday.com. Personal

<mask> is married to Edie (née Goldberg) <mask>, has two sons and lives in Northbrook, Illinois.In 2005, <mask> was charged with domestic battery for slapping his wife as she tried to call 9-1-1 to report abuse. <mask> told the Chicago Tribune that he would be entering alcohol counseling  "Everyone focuses on the slap--and that was the only time I ever hit my wife," <mask> told Chicago magazine in 2008. "But the big issue was really the drinking. I had been drinking." In November 2005, a judge dismissed the domestic abuse charge after prosecutors told the judge that <mask> had complied with a court order to enter an alcohol treatment program.

 <mask> subsequently wrote about the arrest in the Sun-Times, writing that while drunk at his home in September, he had slapped his wife: "She called the cops, they came, clapped me into handcuffs and hauled me off to jail. When I asked her later why she had to have me arrested, she said, 'Nobody hits me, buddy.'"<mask> added that "I certainly don't plan to get myself in jail again. I will do everything I can not to betray the support of the paper." In 2010, <mask>'s domestic abuse arrest became part of Chicago's mayoral race when one of the candidates, former U.S. Senator Carol Moseley Braun, responded at a press conference to a harshly critical column that <mask> had written about her by calling <mask> "a drunk and a wife beater" and saying: "It's the truth. The Sun-Times ought to do better by Chicagoans than to give this man a platform...for his divisive rantings." <mask> responded by noting that "The difference between my past and hers is that I have done the hard work to change myself, while she remains exactly what she was, alas. If a person cannot tolerate one teasing column, how can she hope to be mayor of a great city?"Bibliography

<mask> (born 18 July 1968 in Yogyakarta, Indonesia), commonly known as <mask> was Minister of Youth and Sports Affairs of Indonesia for the final 21 months of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's Second United Indonesia Cabinet. A self-proclaimed expert in telecommunications and multimedia, <mask> gained celebrity status for analyzing and commenting on the authenticity of evidence in political and celebrity scandals, such as leaked phone conversations and sex tapes..He hosted e-Lifestyle on Metro TV for five years. Before his cabinet role, <mask> was a member of parliament representing Yogyakarta Special Region. Education and lecturing
<mask> studied at the Faculty of Communication at Gadjah Mada University (UGM) from 1991 to 2001. He taught at the Department of Photography at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts over 1994-2004. He has also been a guest lecturer at the UGM Communication D-3 Program, teaching photography for several semesters but is not a permanent lecturer at UGM. Rise to public prominence
<mask> first came to national prominence in March 1999, when a tape recording of a telephone conversation between President BJ Habibie and Attorney General Andi Ghalib was leaked to the press.The conversation revealed the judiciary's lack of independence and the government's insincerity toward calls to bring former president Suharto to justice. After Ghalib denied it was his voice on the tape, <mask> - then a relatively unknown figure at Gadjah Mada University - said he had used a digital "spectrum analyzer" to ascertain the conversation was authentic. <mask> explained he had compared the voice on the tape to one of Habibie’s televised speeches, and then to a tape of a comedian impersonating Habibie. The match between the leaked tape and Habibie’s speech was much closer than the comedian's impersonation. After announcing his findings, <mask> was summoned by the State Intelligence Agency (BIA). Although nervous before the meeting, <mask> later said his interrogators had driven him around, treated him to lunch and they had become good friends. <mask> then began appearing

 widely on radio and television, positioning himself as an expert on evidence in numerous ensuing scandals involving politicians and celebrities.He insisted his actions were motivated only by the desire to seek the truth through "pure science". In August 1999, <mask> also analyzed a leaked conversation between key figures in the Bank Bali scandal and declared it to be genuine. Later, he analyzed and declared genuine a photo purporting to show President Abdurrahman Wahid with his alleged mistress, Aryanti Sitepu. Political career
In 2005, <mask> joined Yudhoyono's Democratic Party. In 2009, he was elected to the national parliament, representing Yogyakarta electoral district. He resigned from the legislature in January 2013 after being appointed to replace disgraced Youth and Sports Affairs Minister Andi Mallarangeng. In April 2014, <mask> ran for re-election to parliament but lost to fellow Democratic Party member Ambar Tjahyono from Yogyakarta.He accused Ambar of vote-rigging and Ambar was dismissed from the party. In August 2018, in his capacity as deputy chairman of the Democratic Party, <mask> declared the party's intention to support former general Prabowo Subianto in the 2019 presidential election. In September 2018, <mask> temporarily resigned from his position as deputy chairman of the Democratic Party, saying he wanted to focus on returning assets to the Youth and Sports Affairs Ministry and did not want the party connected to the case. In April 2019, <mask> stood for re-election to parliament, but he and the Democratic Party failed to win enough votes to have a representative for Yogyakarta enter the national parliament for the 2019-2024 period. <mask> attributed the result to "Almighty God" and to "rampant money politics" practiced by other parties. Minister for Youth and Sports Affairs
In early 2013, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono appointed <mask> as Minister of Youth and Sports Affairs to replace Andi Mallarangeng, who resigned after being named a suspect in a corruption case. Upon becoming minister, he inherited the challenge of resolving a conflict between

 rival national football associations: the Indonesian Football Association (PSSI) and the Indonesia Football Saviour Commission (KPSI).The rival camps were led by prominent tycoons Nirwan Bakrie and Arifin Panigoro. In September 2014, <mask> was criticized by Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) for taking an official trip with his wife to Europe to promote the Indonesian martial art of pencak silat, as his term as minister neared an end. ICW described the trip as a waste and questioned why <mask>’s wife was among his 10-member entourage visiting the Czech Republic, Spain and Bulgaria. After completing his ministerial term, <mask> was accused of failing to return state assets until action was taken by the State Audit Board (BPK) in 2016. The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) had also called for the swift return of the state assets. Controversies
The propensity of certain Indonesian media outlets to reproduce <mask>'s statements verbatim without checking their veracity prompted some Indonesian netizens in 2004 to establish a website (now defunct) called roysuryowatch, which analyzed and criticized his comments quoted in the mass media. He was criticized by some bloggers after commenting that the defacing of government websites was carried out by bloggers and hackers.The feud escalated after he said bloggers were con artists. In August 2007, <mask> announced he had obtained a recording of an original, longer version of Indonesia's national anthem, Indonesia Raya, from Leiden University's library archives. Leiden University Library later denied supplying <mask> with the alternative version. It transpired the alternative version had been aired on Indonesian television in 2004 and uploaded to YouTube in December 2006. In August 2013, <mask> was criticized after he appeared to forget the lyrics to the national anthem at a football match in Yogyakarta. He explained that he had not forgotten the lyrics, but that the crowd had been singing loudly out of time. In 2005, when a topless photo alleged to be Miss Indonesia Artika Sari Devi was spread online, <mask> claimed the photo was

On 25 September 2008, <mask>'s expertise was questioned during the trial of Muslim extremist Rizieq Shihab, who was ultimately convicted and jailed for having incited his supporters to attack an inter-faith rally at Jakarta's National Monument. Rizieq's lawyer said <mask>'s evidence for the prosecution should be discounted because his educational background is not in telematics. In October 2008, when a photo circulated showing the regent of Southwest Aceh, Akmal Ibrahim, embracing a woman in bed, <mask> declared the photo to be genuine and said the woman was not the regent's wife. Ibrahim insisted the woman in the photo was his wife, Ida Agustina, and reported <mask> to police for defamation. On 26 February 2009, actress sisters Sarah Azhari and Rahma Azhari reported <mask> to police, accusing him of publicly disseminating private photos of the sisters bathing naked. The report accused <mask> of violating the Criminal Code and Information and Electronic Transactions Law, with a threat of six years in jail.<mask> denied any wrongdoing and questioned the health of the sister's legal counsel, saying he only wanted to help the siblings find out who had shared the photos. In the 2009 trial of actress of Marcella Zalianty and Ananda Mikola, who were accused of kidnapping and abuse, <mask> appeared as an expert witness for the prosecution. Ruby Z. Alamsyah, a digital forensic analyst, appearing as an expert witness for the defense, said <mask>'s testimony was invalid because he has no expertise in international telematics. In 2009, <mask> put himself forward as an expert witness for the prosecution in the defamation trial of Prita Mulyasari, a housewife who was jailed for complaining about being misdiagnosed by a hospital in Banten province. In 2010, <mask> was an expert witness for police in a case involving a leaked sex tape that featured singer Ariel and actress Luna Maya. One of the lawyers representing Ariel and Luna, Boy Afrian Bondjol, alleged that <mask> sent a text message to Luna in early June 2010,

Boy said the text message read: "Morning Miss, sorry to bother you if you are taking a rest but hope not and get you fresh to reply this.This really takes my serious concern as I've been pondering solutions over the hot issue having been shocking Indonesia lately. If you agree with the conditions; First, in the following week, let media and those who claim to know everything and as IT experts comment, you just keep silent. Second, when I return from Amsterdam next week on June 13, we will make a press conference, and thankfully, all three, Miss, Ariel and I. Just set the place and time. It's up to you Miss." Boy said <mask> also suggested that Luna deny the veracity of the sex tape, and that <mask> would report the case to Jakarta Police Cyber Crime Department. <mask> admitted he had sent text messages to Luna, but claimed he felt tricked by her, because she had denied being in the video and he had initially believed her denial.In March 2011, <mask> and his wife were ejected from a Lion Air flight after trying to take the seats of legitimate ticket holders. <mask> blamed Lion Air for the incident. In April 2012, a sex tape was leaked allegedly featuring Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) legislator Karolin Margret Natasa, the daughter of the governor of West Kalimantan. She denied involvement. <mask> on 24 April 2012 said he believed the woman in the video was indeed "KMN", but he declined to become further involved in the case to avoid a conflict of interest, as he belonged to a rival party. In August 2014, <mask> was the victim of online fraud perpetrated by a 16-year-old boy in Subang, West Java. The boy had offered for sale a Malaysian bicycle, which usually retailed for about RM990 ($300), for just Rp890,000 ($73).<mask> transferred Rp1 million for the bike and its delivery to Jakarta, but the item was never delivered. <mask> contacted police, who tracked down and arrested the boy. Indonesian netizens complained that police rarely deal with e-commerce fraud cases involving only a few million rupiah. <mask>

 denied he had been tricked, saying he had deliberately "entered the trap" in order to expose the scammer. He further said police responded swiftly to his report because he has a good relationship with them. In April 2016, <mask> was reportedly fooled by a fake Twitter account set up in the name of President Joko Widodo's son Gibran. The phony account tweeted "Those with their payday, go shopping.Those without salaries, go talk to the government." <mask> responded with an attacking tweet: "Tweeps, Twit child without a conscience. Those "without payday" are millions of Indonesians...#AskJOKOWI." In response to mockery that he had been baited by a fake account, <mask> said he knew the account was fake all along. He said he had responded to the fake tweet just to elicit reactions from Widodo supporters, whom he referred to derisively as "tadpoles". Wikipedia vandalism complaint
On 24 January 2020, <mask> filed a police complaint over an edit to the United Nations page on the Indonesian version of Wikipedia. The edit, made on 21 January 2020 and showing scant regard for capitalization, changed the location of the first UN General Assembly from "Westminster Central Hall" in London to "jln setiabudi (sunda atlantis)".It also changed the location of the UN's first temporary headquarters over 1946 to 1952 from a building owned by Sperry Gyroscope Corporation in Lake Success, New York, to "villa isola in lembang, Bandung". <mask> said he suspected the edits were made by a cult known as the Sunda Empire, which claims to have founded the UN and NATO. “If we look for the history of the United Nations and NATO, the ones that come up are fake historical references made by the Sunda Empire. This is dangerous,” said <mask>. Police said they would investigate the complaint, which alleges violations of the Electronic and Information Transactions Law and the Criminal Code. Personal life

According to Doctor Who and Torchwood executive producer Russell T Davies in Doctor Who Magazine issue 366 (dated 1 March 2006), <mask>' direction of the Chatterley piece and his decision to back down from producing Torchwood were related."<mask> has been having such a good time... that he's decided directing is his greatest passion, and as a result, he's stepped down."
