Mumbai’s growing Hindi heartland

At the same time, the number of people who claim Marathi to be their mother tongue is on the decline.

Mumbai is arguably one of the most linguistically perse cities in India, with a remarkable trove of languages taking root here over the past century. But over the last few years, demographic changes caused by migration, both in and out, have been slowly turning Mumbai's identity into that of a predominantly Hindi-speaking city.

While there is no recent quantitative data available about the origins of each Mumbaikar, a 2011 census report on the mother tongue of residents in the city has shown that respondents who identify Hindi to be their mother tongue has grown by over 40 per cent from 25.88 lakh to 35.98 lakh in Mumbai. At the same time, the number of respondents who said that Marathi is their mother tongue fell by 2.64 per cent from 45.23 lakh in 2001 to 44.04 lakh.

Interestingly, this change is also evident in the peripheral areas of Mumbai with both Thane and Raigad district showing an 80 per cent increase in the number of Hindi-speaking residents.

The gradual change in the composition of Mumbai has had an important bearing not only on planning and governance but also in shaping the politics of the city.

Mumbai, which began as a port city, found further sustenance with the proliferation of textile units in the 1900s. The city's growth was fuelled by migrants, who in 1921 made up nearly 84 per cent of the city's population. Most of the migrants hailed from the erstwhile Bombay Presidency and came from areas like Konkan, Western Maharashtra, parts of Gujarat and adjoining states like Goa. These migrants helped Mumbai become a commercial and industrial centre of note.

In the last 40 years, the shutting down of its textile mills, and the transformation of Mumbai from a manufacturing hub to a services hub changed the migration pattern. Earlier, migrants into Mumbai were largely from other parts of Maharashtra, but the non-mill jobs did not attract them, and cheap labour from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar flowed in.

Ram B Bhagat from the Department of Migration and Urban Studies of International Institute of Population Sciences in his paper titled "Population Change and Migration in Mumbai Metropolitan Region: Implications for Politics and Governance" points out that the share of migrants from Maharashtra to Mumbai had declined from 41.6 per cent in 1961 to 37.4 per cent in 2001. At the same time, the number of migrants from Uttar Pradesh increased from 12 per cent in 1961 to 24 per cent in 2001 while the increase from Bihar was even more steep from 0.2 per cent to 3.5 per cent.

Changing mother tongue (Source: Census/2011)

Many of the North Indian migrants are said to have taken up jobs in the unorganised sector where the work was erratic and the pay very low.

Inpiduals who claim Marathi to be their mother tongue are still the largest ethno-linguistic group in the city. This is followed by Hindi, Urdu and Gujarati.

However, the data shows that the number of people who claim Marathi to be their mother tongue are on the decline. From a total of 45.24 lakh in 2001, their number declined to 44.04 lakh in 2011. In the same decade, the number of Gujarati speakers fell marginally from 14.34 lakh in 2001 to 14.28 lakh in 2011. The number of Urdu speakers fell from 16.87 lakh in 2001 to 14.59 lakh in 2011.

The only major linguistic group that has shown a massive spike is Hindi speakers, whose numbers have zoomed from 25.82 lakh to 35.98 lakh, which is an increase of close to 39.35 per cent.

This spike in Hindi-speaking numbers is not restricted to Mumbai alone. The housing constraints in Mumbai were a major reason for the gradual shift of Mumbai's Marathi-speaking population from the heart of Mumbai to its peripheral regions. But even these regions have shown a massive spike in Hindi-speaking population.

In Thane and Raigad, two adjoining districts where "native" Marathi-speaking Mumbaikars were pushed due to rising real estate costs and loss of jobs, the spike in Hindi-speaking residents is as high as 80.45 per cent in Thane and 87 per cent in Raigad district.

Enumerating a city as big as Mumbai with a population of 1.24 crore has its sets of problems. While no one denies the fact that Mumbai has acted as a magnet for migrants from North India, one important reason that is given for this massive spike in numbers is the probable under-reporting of these numbers in previous census.

"Over the last years due to the prevalent social and political climate in the city, there is a chance that there was under-reporting of Hindi-speaking members. The fear of being hounded as a "Bhaiyya" or an outsider may have led people to camouflage their identity. Language is closely tied to a person's culture and identity and many who lived in fear may have tried to hide it. In the present social, political climate, many would be feeling empowered enough not to hide their identities," Abdul Shaban, Professor at the Centre for Public Policy, Habitat and Human Development at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, said.

Shaban explains the linkage of language with identity assertion by giving an example of the huge jump in the number of Urdu speakers in Mumbai between 1981 and 1991. Shaban says that while the actual numbers would not have increased that much, the Muslims of Mumbai faced with the then prevalent socio-political situation had chosen to assert their identities by identifying Urdu as their language.

He says the constant assertion and promotion of the narrative of Hindi with nationalism also seems to be paying pidends. "There may be a significant number of inpiduals who even if they hail from other states and speak other languages may want to identify with Hindi as their mother tongue. The prevalent socio-political condition of the country over the last few decades has helped increase such number of people," Shaban says.

Students from University Of Miami learn about Karma Yoga at Great Lakes, Chennai

Chennai: Great Lakes Institute of Management, Chennai, hosted 15 students from School of Business, University of Miami as part of an International Experience Learning program, at its campus.
Organized every year, the program aims to help students with a greater understanding of India’s culture, traditions, its growing role in world affairs and in particular about the unique Leadership Experiential Action Program — Karma Yoga, offered at Great Lakes. Lead by Dr. Vaidy Jayaraman, Associate Dean, Great Lakes Institute of Management, this year’s program consisted of debate, discussions and an interesting Case Study Challenge on a Retail Store, in which students from the University of Miami were divided into groups and were tagged along students from Great Lakes.
The case discussion was followed by a video presentation which showcased Great Lakes – Karmayoga project – how the B school has adopted several villages in and around its campus to empower rural population, in particular – woman upliftment, education of less-privileged children, free medical camps and so on.
The session came to an end with entertainment – singing and dance performances by Great Lakes students. Students from both the institutes also exchanged gifts and networked over lunch. The Miami students also visited the villages in and around the campus, which have been adopted for the Karma Yoga project. The Miami students interacted with the villagers about their livelihood skills and how Karma Yoga program has been helping them to be self-sustainable.
Commenting on the program, Dr. Vaidy Jayaraman, said, “Today’s competitive market requires MBA graduates to distinguish themselves, and international experiential learning is the perfect way to do so. One gets to learn the foreign culture, gets a perspective about the economy of that particular region, which creates a life-changing impact both personally and professionally. ”
Sharing the experience about the visit to Great Lakes, Adrian Perez- Siam, pursuing MBA at University of Miami said, “It is wonderful to be present at a prestigious institution like Great Lakes. I am impressed with the Green campus and the way students are aware of global markets. The culture, the food and the visit to these villages around are something I will carry with me from here. ”
The students of Miami will be continuing the Indian trip by visiting various heritage spots in India

6 Reasons Why Americans Should Consider Medical Tourism

Posted by Sherif Hassan MD on Thu, Jan 24, 2019

medical tourism abroad Wash DC

Are you worried about not having the money to pay for a medical treatment or surgical procedure?

Or, are you anxious because the medical procedure you have scheduled for next month will eat up a large chunk of your savings for retirement?

If you answered yes, then you may want to explore an alternative to receiving costly treatments in the United States: Medical Tourism. Medical tourism refers to people traveling from one country to another to obtain medical treatment or fulfill a medical need at a more affordable, specialized or reputable treatment center. You may have heard that U.S. Sen. Rand Paul is scheduled this week to have "non-mesh hernia repair" surgery  in a private Canadian hospital world-renowned for the procedure. Why would Sen. Paul travel to Canada for medical treatment?

The Top 6 Reasons Why You Should Consider Receiving Medical Treatment Abroad:

Cost Savings of Medical Tourism

It is usual for people to want to get the best value for their money, but also to save money in the process. Considering the high costs of medical procedures in the U.S., medical tourism has provided Americans with an alternative. They may choose to travel to other countries, and end up saving money, without the fear of any compromise on the quality of their healthcare treatments. For example, the cost of a cardiac bypass surgery in the U.S. is well over $100,000. On the other hand, the same procedure in some European countries costs around $20,000. If all other costs are taken into consideration, an American could end up saving possibly $80,000.

Enjoy an Unexpected Quality of Care

It might sound strange, and surprising, but the quality of healthcare and customer service available in some European countries sometimes exceeds the average care encountered in the U.S. It is because the governments of these countries have poured billions of dollars into their healthcare systems to bring them up to the international standards. So, when foreigners go to such hospitals for treatment, they not only receive world-class treatment but are also met with hospitality, care, and grace.

Insurance Company Shortcomings

Many Americans just carry on with their lives, despite being affected by a chronic condition or illness. When asked the reason for not receiving treatment, they reply that their condition is not covered under their medical insurance, and that they do not have the capacity to undergo treatment and pay for it on their own. The fact of the matter is, they might not have the capacity to receive treatment in the U.S., but there is a possibility that they’ll be able to receive treatment abroad. In such a scenario, it would be wise to explore medical tourism instead of living in pain or with chronic llness that is affecting the quality of life.

Special Procedures

Certain treatments, medications and procedures are not allowed in the U.S., or are still in their developmental or investigational phases. However, many of these procedures have been successfully performed for years throughout Europe or other countries. When in need, it is possible to take advantage of these treatments by utilizing medical tourism. Shouldice, the private hospital where Sen. Paul is to receive surgery, has been doing mostly non-mesh hernia surgery for 70 years.

Longer Hospital Stays

The cost of a hospital room in Europe is cheaper than the cost of an average hospital room in the United States. Therefore, it is possible to have hospital stays that are longer, in such countries, while not going overboard on your budget. This ensures that you receive expert care and supervision for as long as possible, or until you are back in shape and medically ready to be discharged.

Take a Vacation

Medical Tourism might be for medical reasons, but it is still tourism, and if you are well enough to take advantage of the opportunity for travel it can be a wonderful time to experience the beauty of another culture. Going overseas for treatment may not only give you the best value for the money but also exposes you to an environment that you might have never experienced before. And what better way can there be to utilize your sick leave or vacation from work than to experience the grandeur of  Europe?

Finding the Right Place for Medical Tourism

The only thing that you require for traveling is being directed to the right place for treatment. You want a doctor and hospital with the expertise and the established track record of treating your condition. I only refer to European Centers of Excellence with world-renowned International standing. I am not involved in Medical Tourism for Dental, Cosmetic or Fertility Procedures. Some of the facilities I refer to do accept International Health Insurance and Self Funded Insurance plans on a case-by-case basis.

I would hope that such a need for medical care never arises, but if it does, you may view it as an opportunity to experience the best in Medical Tourism.

Villarreal Club de Fútbol, S.A.D. (Valencian: Vila-real Club de Futbol, S.A.D.), usually abbreviated to Villarreal CF or just Villarreal, is a Spanish football club based in Vila-real, a city in the province of Castellón within the Valencian Community. Founded in 1923, it plays in La Liga, holding home games at El Madrigal, with a capacity for 24,890 spectators.[1]

The club is nicknamed El Submarí Groguet or El Submarino Amarillo (Yellow Submarine) due to its yellow home kit, and due to being a low-profile team compared to Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia, whom they have challenged for trophies over the last decade. Villarreal has often been touted as an example of a small but successful club.[2]

Early years

Villarreal CF was founded as Villarreal CD on 10 March 1923 "to promote all sports especially Soccer." The stadium was rented for 60 pesetas a month and ticket prices were set at half a peseta for men and a quarter of a peseta for children. Women were granted free admission.[3] On 17 June 1923, Castellón, a modern rival of the club, played the first match against a club named after Cervantes. On 21 October of that year, Villarreal played their first game ever, playing against Castellón.[3] Villarreal started off with a kit of white shirts and black shorts, reflected in their first badge.[4]

Villarreal entered regional competitions within the Spanish football pyramid from 1929–30 onwards. The 1934–35 season saw the team lose to Cartagena when a win would see them promoted to the nationwide Second Division.[3] The following season saw Villarreal win the First Division of the region before the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War.[3]

When the war finished in 1939, the club played again in the Second Division of the region before promotion in 1950–51 to the first.[3] In 1942, the club changed their name to CAF Villarreal, with a new badge in the yellow colour of their new shirts. The "F" stood for Foghetcaz, an athletics club and supporter of the team.[4]

The name changed again to the current Villarreal CF in 1954, with a badge similar to the present one.[4] They finished seventh and then fourth twice in the First regional league before being promoted to the Tercera Liga (Third Nationwide) as champions in 1956. They were relegated in 1960–61 after finishing 14th.[3]

The club adopted their present badge in the summer of 1966.[4] In 1966–67, Villarreal returned to the Tercera as champions. In 1970, they reached the national Segunda for the first time.[3] After narrowly avoiding relegation in their first season, they were relegated the following. In 1975–76, they were relegated from the Tercera to the Regionals, but were promoted back again the next season.

In 1986–87, Villarreal were promoted to the Segunda Liga B.[3] In 1990, they finished 18th and were relegated back to the Tercera.

There were back-to-back promotions as the club returned to Segunda B and finished second, earning promotion to Segunda A for the first time. From 1992–93, Villarreal were often in low or mid-table positions, but reached the play-offs in 1997–98 by finishing fourth.[5] The two-legged play-off was against Compostela. Villarreal hosted the first leg which was a 0–0 draw, but the second leg at the home of the Galician team was a 1–1 draw, thus Villarreal were promoted on the away goals rule.

Primera Liga debut

Villarreal's Primera Liga debut started with a match against reigning European champions Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium on 31 August 1998. The first home game was against Celta de Vigo[5] the week after. Because of a difficult season, Villarreal were relegated to the Segunda División for the 1999–2000 season, but by finishing third, they were then promoted back to the Primera Liga.

European qualifications

After finishing seventh on their return to the Primera, Villarreal finished in 15th place[5] for two-straight seasons.

Villarreal competed in the UEFA Intertoto Cup in the summer of 2002, defeating FH of Iceland, Torino of Italy, and Troyes of France. They lost in the final to compatriots Málaga, 2–1 on aggregate.[6]

In the summer of 2003, they defeated the Dutch team Heerenveen in the final of the Intertoto Cup, thereby qualifying for the UEFA Cup of the upcoming season. In their major European debut, Villarreal reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup, losing to neighbours and eventual champions Valencia. In the league, Villarreal finished in eighth place.

In the summer of 2004, Villarreal retained the Intertoto Cup, beating compatriots Atlético Madrid on penalties after the final finished 2–2 on aggregate. This qualified them to the UEFA Cup. They lost in the quarter-finals of the 2004–05 UEFA Cup to Dutch side AZ, losing 3–2 on aggregate. During the same season, Villarreal finished in third place in La Liga, earning the club their first direct qualification to a European tournament, the Champions League. The club's centre-forward Diego Forlán won the Pichichi Trophy for top scorer in the league, with 25 goals.

Villarreal defeated the Premier League's Everton in a play-off for the Champions League group stages. The group saw Villarreal go undefeated, drawing both games against Manchester United and achieving a draw and a win each against Lille of France and Benfica of Portugal. The win over Benfica was away and both teams advanced to the last 16.[7]

The club then drew 3–3 against Rangers of Scotland in the Last 16, advancing on away goals due to a 2–2 draw at Ibrox. In the quarter-finals, Villarreal beat Internazionale on away goals after finishing 2–2 on aggregate. The club bowed out in the semi-finals against Arsenal, losing 1–0 away at Highbury. Juan Román Riquelme had a penalty saved by Jens Lehmann in the home game, which finished 0–0. Arsenal went on to lose in the final in Paris to another Spanish club, Barcelona.

Villarreal finished seventh in La Liga, which only earned an Intertoto Cup position.

Villarreal contested the Intertoto Cup in the summer of 2006 and was knocked out in its first game, to Maribor of Slovenia. The first leg was lost 2–1 at home and the away game was a 1–1 draw.[8] The team finished 5th in La Liga and qualified for the UEFA Cup.

Villarreal gained their best-ever league position in 2008, finishing second to Real Madrid by eight points, and also reached the last 32 in that season's UEFA Cup. After defeating BATE Borisov of Belarus in a play-off, the team won Group C unbeaten.[9] Their group opponents were Fiorentina of Italy, Mladá Boleslav of Czech Republic, IF Elfsborg of Sweden, and AEK Athens of Greece.

In the last 32, Villarreal were defeated by eventual champions Zenit Saint Petersburg, losing the first leg 1–0 in Russia to a Pavel Pogrebnyak goal. The second leg was won 2–1 by Villarreal at El Madrigal, but Zenit advanced on away goals.

The club automatically qualified for the 2008-09 UEFA Champions League, due to them finishing second in La Liga the previous season. They drew Manchester United, for the second consecutive campaign, Celtic, and Aalborg BK. They made a good start by holding current European champions Manchester United to a goal-less draw at Old Trafford, a third 0–0 draw in a row against the English giants. A first win was sealed on 30 September by beating Gordon Strachan's Celtic 1–0 at El Madrigal, courtesy of a Marcos Senna free-kick. On 21 October, during a Champions League match against Aalborg, they scored six goals to three. The Spaniards went through to the knock-out stage after drawing 2–2 with Aalborg in Denmark and drawing goalless once again against the Lancastrian "Red Devils," on the last group-stage match, they lost to an already-eliminated Celtic.

In the knock-out stage, they faced Panathinaikos, who left Villarreal with a 1–1 away advantage, despite this the Greeks were to lose 1–2 in Athens. Villarreal reached the quarter-finals for the second time in two tries, and were once again paired with Arsenal. The first leg saw a 1–1 draw by a free-kick by Marcos Senna, equalised by an Emmanuel Adebayor volley. Theo Walcott, Emmanuel Adebayor, and Robin van Persie secured a 3–0 win for Arsenal on the return, knocking Villarreal out of the tournament.

Despite finishing outside of a European qualifying spot in the domestic league, Villarreal was given a place in the qualifying round of the 2010–11 Europa League after UEFA determined that Mallorca's financial irregularities precluded them from taking part in the tournament.

A 5–0 home win and a 2–1 away win against Dnepr Mogilev qualified them for the group stage. Villarreal suffered an early setback following a shock 2–0 loss in their away fixture against Dinamo Zagreb. Despite this, however, later wins against Dinamo, Club Brugge and PAOK saw them top their group.

After beating Napoli, Bayer Leverkusen and Twente in the knockout phases, Villarreal qualified for the semi-finals to face tournament favourites Porto. After taking a 0–1 lead at the Estádio do Dragão, Porto made a remarkable turnaround that ended in a 5–1 defeat. Although Villareal won the second leg with a 3–2 win, Porto's first leg goal total saw them advance to the final on aggregate, where they beat Braga to be crowned champions. Giuseppe Rossi finished as the tournament's second top goalscorer with 11 goals, behind Porto's Radamel Falcao.

Relegation and promotion

Deportivo de La Coruña vs. Villarreal CF.

On 13 May, Villarreal were relegated from the Primera Liga after defeat to Atlético Madrid. Following a horrendous season, the club suffered a shattering tragedy when Manolo Preciado, appointed as Villarreal's new manager on 6 June, died of a heart attack later that day.[10] Following their relegation, there was a mass exodus of players at the club, with star players such as Borja Valero, Diego López, Giuseppe Rossi and Nilmar leaving the side.[11]

After one year in the Segunda División, Villarreal were promoted back to La Liga on the final day of the season after finishing the year in second after champions Elche.

The team began its new tenure in the top-flight by winning its first three games; the winning streak ended with a tie against Real Madrid at El Madrigal, though the team was undefeated until falling to Real Betis 1–0 in the seventh matchday of the season. The Yellow Submarine finished the 2013–14 campaign in sixth, thus qualifying them for next season's Europa League.

In 2014–15, Villarreal again finished the year in sixth, enough to secure direct qualification to the Europa League group stage.

In 2015–16, Villarreal led La Liga for the first time.

Villarreal has supported a long rivalry with Castellón for geographical reasons, since both are from the province of Castellón. They also rival Valencia, since the two had been the most competitive teams of the Valencian Community; this clash is called the "Derby de la Comunitat."

  • Villarreal's biggest league win at home has been achieved three times. The score of 5–0 was the result against Salamanca (1998–99 in Segunda), Celta de Vigo (2002–03 in Primera), and Tenerife (2009–10 in Primera). The most goals in a game was six, at home to Racing de Santander (2003–04 in Primera).[12]
  • The largest away win was at Las Palmas by 5–1 (2000–01 in Primera) and 4–0 at Real Sociedad in the same league during the 2004–05 season.[12]

Club colours

El Madrigal

The club's famous yellow kit dates back to 1947. With the new season fast approaching, the son of the then Villarreal president travelled to Valencia to purchase replacements of the club's official kit of white shirts and black shorts. Discovering that the shop had neither in stock, he instead bought the only colour that they did have, which happened to be yellow. The players agreed that the shirts were suitable, although they weren't keen on the black shorts, so the president's son travelled to Castellón and purchased a batch of white shorts. The players voted that they should be dyed blue.[13] After remaining as the club's official kit for some time, the yellow shirts and blue shorts combination was last worn in the 2002–03 season, and the club has since sported all yellow kits.[14] Away colours have often been navy blue.

From 2005 to 30 June 2011, the shirt sponsor was "Aeroport Castello", an airport. Since that date, they have worn unsponsored shirts. The kit is made by the Chinese company Xtep, having previously been produced by Puma of Germany.

Creating Flow for Newness, Valuing Resources, Living Responsibly with Hopeful Expectancy (July)

July 2nd  5pm ET / 6pm ADT / 10pm GMT / 2pm PT – 90 minutes

In the next few sessions, we will focus on becoming a conduit of new riches in the world in response to survival-based programs that are gripping many people across the globe.  With collective fear, Almine has shared that it is hard for the Earth to provide resources.  We will focus on bringing movement to all static places in body and life, and this will have many benefits. Also, we will hold the space for new levels of self-ignition in participants.  Below is an overall ‘game-plan’, and for the next few weeks we will emphasize certain areas and bring in new support material.

  • Stagnancy traps significant resources, and like a dam breaking, bringing movement to those areas will unleash new vitality in your life, and by proxy in life in general.
  • Static areas are holding yesterday’s stories in place, which is a sub-creation or false reality. Again, this traps resources, so letting them go will revitalize life.
  • In order for the limitless renewing forces of life to flow through you, all stories and paradigms of life need to be dissolved. Memory keeps us stuck in the old reality; in order to attune to the new reality that is ever renewing in each moment, we must let memory lose the importance we’ve given it. Wake up new each day…don’t remember what day it is and think you know what to expect.  Say, “Today I expect miracles….Anything is possible”…then feel into your big or little dreams that bring delight, feel them/see them/taste them, and be in that delight in that moment.
  • Show up actively, so you become generative of new resources. The bolder you are in your ‘newness’, the more you can expect life’s support.
    • Be willing to sense yourself in terms of what you are becoming, rather than what you think you have been so far.If you think you know yourself, you will live the future as the past.
    • Be willing to see the people in your life as though for the first time.  Rather than look at what unfolds in interactions and respond, be proactive: hold a feeling sense in essence, of what would delight, and immerse in that as you interact.
    • Rather than see your accomplishments as something you are or have, see them as springboards for unsurpassed excellence. Then strive for excellence in some concrete way each day. Excellence pushes boundaries, and opens up space for far more than you can imagine to ‘land’ in your life.
  • Replace all negative expectations with unwavering optimism and hope, which has the power to rewrite possibilities for life.
  • Expect miracles and know that anything is possible. Be in childlike wonderment and entertain the ‘impossible’.

Creating Flow, Valuing Resources, Living Responsibly and Being Generative (Hope-filled expectancy)

You can go over this section over the next few weeks. Take your time…

At the Physical Level

  • Consider eating healthy, whole foods that are grown with conscientiousness. Cut out what is toxic and depleting. Include self-care so that you do not get depleted,
  • Engage in fair and willing exchange of resources/energy that give benefit to all involved.
  • Practice gratitude that enhances our ability to receive resources that are there for us on the etheric levels.
  • In terms of active, bold and generative living, believe in your body’s ability to self-heal and self-regenerate.  Use the mirror sparingly, while at the same time, affirm your exquisite beauty and luminous presence throughout the day.
  • For this week, pay attention to balanced living where you are not excessive nor are you in fear and deprivation. Where you can, reach out and give to others. Declutter, give away all that you do not use. Neither hoard nor be wasteful. Do not spend what you don’t have. For everything you spend or barter for, do so with deep appreciation and blessings.

At the Emotional Level

  • Refrain from interacting where you feel your energy drained. Your emotional energy is precious power that is not to be squandered.
  • Be very generous with your encouragement, kindness, and compassionate understanding, and as you do this, feel how wealthy and unlimited you are in that regard.
  • Live by resonance, as resonant interaction are alchemical and so by nature, are generative. To do that, feel what is alive in you at all times, and if an interaction feels right, then tune into the aliveness or essence of another, letting all else fade to the background.
  • Where there is upset, process it, ask for help, do whatever you can to release it and come to peace. Letting negativity linger is very draining of resources. (Use the 3-centers Reframe process just added on the General Resources page). Recognize your emotions as pure power to boost intention. Put strong emotions only behind positive intent.

At the Mental Level

  • “Everywhere you go, forget everything you know.” Become much more focused on what you don’t know about situations than about what you know. You know your point of view, but you don’t know another’s. Let that capture your focus., for example.
  • When you take action that is by rote, stop yourself and imagine doing things differently. Challenge yourself to get different results by doing the same action but from fresh attitude and perspective.
  • When you are in expectation or assumption from beliefs, conscientiously let that go. Plunge the situation with all involved, include you, in the Ocean of Oneness. (A process has been added in material for this week, below)

General Process for the Remote Session

For this session,  plan on a full hour of meditation.

1) If you have Fragrance Alchemy

FA logo 2

  • Do the 3 centers FA Protocol:
  • Blend of the Gods and Flower of Saffron on the Crown point (top of head)
  • Rose and Henna Flower on the Heart center
  • Lion of Judah 2 inches below the navel

Add Goddess Blend above the pubic bone, at the tailbone, and under the feet

Do the 3 Resurrection points:

  • Song of the High Heart on the thymus area
  • Lotus oil 2 inches above the navel
  • Rose oil on the 3rd eye (between eyebrows)

1) Choose a music elixir and align the 3 centers (use the 3-centers alignment audio meditation on the main resources page if you wish). Have the EHS power sigil printed so you can look at it, and intend it to activate in Head, Heart, and Gut centers. (If you have our personal EHS activated, then use that). Next, imagine the EHS expanding out as a cocoon of healing light/frequencies around you. The EHS acts as an ‘enfolding embrace’ for all the transmission accumulated over the course of our work.

2) Take some time to contemplate on living beyond memory, new in each moment, becoming generative and a conduit of new resources through allowing life to renew itself through you.

  • Being willing to sense yourself in terms of what you are becoming, rather than what you think you have been so far.
  • Being willing to see the people in your life as though for the first time.
  • Rather than seeing your accomplishments as something you are or have, seeing them as springboards for unsurpassed excellence.
  • Living free of  negative expectations, with only unwavering optimism and hope, which has the power to rewrite possibilities for life.
  • Expecting miracles and knowing that anything is possible. Being in childlike wonderment and entertaining the ‘impossible’.

3) Pick a random Spread from the 19 Principles of Hope given in the weekly material, below.

  • Click on the link for the Rune Mastery Environment (RME).
  • Read the principle and contemplate it for your life.
  • Click on each rune to enlarge it,  look at it, read its meaning, read the name of the angel god, and ask that its principle be activated in you.
  • Feel the alchemy of all 7 runes, and imagine the wheel with all runes moving through you from head to Crown chakra and beyond. Beyond the Crown, see it expand all around you, then all around the planet or cosmos.  Intend that as you live the principle and runes, that the resources unleashed ripple out to all life.

4) Go into a deep meditative state (with an elixir playing)

Spend as much time in deep inner silence and mindlessness as you can. Almine’s Poetry of Dreaming (on general resource page) is a good one, as it clears subconscious distorted frequencies, and is a wonderful music elixir for deep meditation. Be still in a deeply receptive state for as long as you wish.

5) At the end, acknowledge and be grateful for all support, and flow your appreciation through head, heart, and gut and feel it raying out to your environment.

During the week

Simple Statements for Daily Use ~ Anything is Possible

Anything is possible when you are willing to be the gateway of miracles ~ This is a 5-minute audio of statements that you can do each morning or anytime…several times a day as you feel to. Feel deeply that anything truly is possible when you allow yourself to be the gateway for life’s newness of flow through.  Become generative in life by allowing miracles!

Plunging into the Ocean of Oneness ~ Exercise to  Dissolve Tension and Intolerance with Others

In allowing obsolete programs to be shed, we enter into the fluidity of the ever newness of the moment in which Infinite Intent will arise.  A moment well lived dissolves past stories so that only the inspiration remains; this changes future potential.  In continual release of old emotions, patterns, memories etc that keep life appearing static to us, we become less and less dense and so are less resistant to life.

Releasing All Into the Ocean of Oneness

Rune Support

phoebe owl GMFor the next few weeks, you will have access to the Rune Process to support 16 Principles of Hope. Hope does not wait for a future time of fulfilment. Hope is a very richly nuanced state of being that fulfils itself in the moment. It opens up the moment as a window into eternity, wherein anything becomes possible.

The 16 Principles of Hope come to us from Almine ( They are incredible powers that can change a moment of dullness or despair, into a highly charged and pivotal one. Daily use is recommended.

The final day of Ahvan 2013, the annual management festival began with an enlightening speech by Mr. D.K. Joshi, Chief Economist, CRISIL, who talked about the recent trends in the Indian economy and where it is headed in the global context. The chief-guest of the event was Mr. M.K. Gaind, DGM CBI.

Ruchik Gandhi, a PGP student of IIM Indore won the finale of Ashwamedha- the leadership event of IIM Indore. In the sales and marketing event ‘Gordian Knots’, the finalists were tested on the concept of visual merchandising.  The online event Klueless attracted over 20,000 unique players and 1.1 million hits from participants in over 110 countries. Klueless is an online game which has many levels containing intriguing puzzles and brainteasers. The event is open to all and over the years it has become synonymous with Ahvan.

The key highlight of the day was the final round of Jigyaasa, the flagship quizzing conclave where the team from S.P. Jain Institute of Management & Research bagged the first place. The team from Jadhavpur University was a close second in a fiercely contested final round hosted by the one of India’s best quizmasters, Arul Mani.

Engaging with the Industry – Industrial Visits at IIM Indore

The faculty and staff at IIM Indore are always known for their out of the box teaching pedagogy methods. The Himalayan Outbound Program, Rural Immersion Program, Boat Building Exercise and many other programs like these make the student learning experience rich and impactful. Especially as management students they are able to acquire traits that the industry demands from them. Realizing the fact that Management is a study based on application sciences, so the institute believes in learning by application.

About the Industrial visit program

The industrial visit program was started for the batch of year 2012-14 where the students in the first year had to visit an organization in an around Indore once a day, each week. Currently in its second year, the program has evolved to be a great source of learning for the participants.

As a part of the program the entire batch is divided into groups. These groups are so divided that the students have the right mix of fresher and experienced candidates. A point of contact is also selected from each group who is normally the most experienced participant among the lot. These groups are then allotted a domain and the students have to study different activities involved with that specific domain. The institute arranges the logistics for the participants. But interfacing with the organization about their regular visits is usually done by the participants themselves.

The initial rounds of the visit comprises of having a round of the organization, understanding their implementation set up and value chain. Followed by which each company gives the students a problem statement/objective. The participants are then supposed to do a critical analysis and come up their understanding of the problem. They then give feasible solutions and recommendations to the same.

Some of the companies where the participants make the visit:-

Name of the Company Domain over which they have to work
Anik Industries Dewas Operations, Marketing

Some of the project works that the students are doing are as follows:-

– Feasibility study of launching a product in the market
– How to improve the efficiency of processes on job floor
– Researching about tourism in and around city
– Conducting survey to know consumer preference of a product and then accordingly make business development strategy

Learning’s for the students

The participants gain the following from this series of Industrial visits:-

– These visits prove to be of great help when the students are asked by professors to work on some field research
– The industries mentor the students with their experiences

Benefits for the organization

The organization gets an outsider’s perspective. The SMEs get to know about the new innovations that can be infused into their business and how they can improve their problems. They learn about the new practices and benefit from the experiences of the group.

Tech Job Numbers Keep Climbing in N.Y.

Advancing technology and a number of startups have created thousands of tech jobs in New York City in a very short timeframe, according to the Partnership for New York City’s NYC Jobs Blueprint. The average salary is $96,400. That’s not bad, though bear in mind the area’s an expensive place to live.

New YorkThe Partnership worked with consulting company McKinsey to analyze the number of true tech positions in the city, which it defined as jobs requiring advanced skills across all industries. So, people working on help desks weren’t considered high-tech employees, but software developers were.

The Jobs Blueprint estimates that the city is home to 150,000 tech jobs. That’s lower than a report commissioned by Mayor Mike Bloomberg’s private foundation, which said that the tech/information sector accounted for 262,000 jobs — an 11 percent jump since the economy crashed in 2007.

Why the difference? Technology-focused venture capitalist Fred Wilson believes that it’s difficult to say whether some of the companies included in the Bloomberg report should be considered true tech companies. The report identified information and Internet services, IT systems consulting and implementation, media production, software developers and IT infrastructure, as well as scientific, engineering, and industrial design services firms, as companies in the “tech/information sector.”

One Response to “Tech Job Numbers Keep Climbing in N.Y.”

  1. jelabarre

    I’m presuming you meant to say tech job numbers are climbing in *****NYC*****. There’s a who other state attached to the cespool that is NYC. Moving to NYC for work would be something many people would regret quite quickly.

    As for me, I’d rather see what is available in NY State at large.

When it’s cold outside a heat pump extracts this outside heat and transfers it inside. When it’s warm outside, it reverses directions and acts like an air conditioner, removing heat from your home. One advantage of a heat pump is that it moves heat instead of generating heat, giving you more energy efficiency.

West Virginia GOP Lawmaker: Gays Are A Modern Day KKK Terrorist Group

Things got heated in the West Virginia House of Delegates on Wednesday when first-term Republican Delegate Eric Porterfield advocated for an amendment to House Bill 2699 that would have prohibited local municipalities from adding nondiscrimination ordinances that protect sexual orientation and gender identity.

Currently, only a handful of West Virginia cities (Martinsburg, Beckley, Fairmont, Wheeling and Morgantown) have non-discrimination ordinances that specifically address sexual orientation. There are no statewide protections for LGBT people in West Virginia.

Porterfield defended the amendment, introduced by fellow Republican Delegate Dean Jeffries, saying, "As legislators, I don't think it's our job to legislate behavior," according to MetroNews.

"This is discrimination against the first amendment and religious liberty, and the LGBT is the most socialist group and they don’t protect gays," the lawmaker added.

MetroNews also reports that he cited the homophobic slur 'f*ggot' as he referenced homocon Milo Yiannopoulos' 2015 campus speaking tour, "The Dangerous F*ggots Tour."

To be clear, the homophobic slur was chosen by Yiannopoulos, not Porterfield, for the title of the tour. But Porterfield's colleagues objected to the use of the word just as reasonable people would object to the use of the n-word.

The proposed amendment was ultimately killed in committee.

On Friday, Porterfield continued his attacks on the LGBTQ community, telling the Charleston Gazette-Mail: “The LGBTQ is a modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan, without wearing hoods with their antics of hate.”

The Gazette-Mail went on to add that Porterfield called the LGBTQ community a "terrorist group," and that he is being “persecuted” by the gay community in retaliation for his hateful comments.

Belinda Biafore, chairwoman of the state Democratic Party, issued a statement late Friday afternoon seeking the Republican’s resignation from the House of Delegates due to his inflammatory comments and language.

“First of all, Delegate Porterfield needs to resign,” said Ms. Biafore. “West Virginia has no room for someone who expresses such hate. Let alone room for him to hold a public office where he is supposed to represent the people of West Virginia.”

Porterfield alleges he has received threats via social media and voicemails.

He took to his Facebook to write:

“Last night and today, members of the LGBTQ have exercised hate crimes and threatened my safety. We have reported this to the Capitol Police in Charleston and I would like all of my friends to pray for the safety of me and my family. These vicious monsters are proving that they are the most bigoted and discriminatory people in America. Though they try to intimidate and bully and try to strike fear to me and my family, we ask the Lord to help us stand tall against their persecution and their leftist minions within the legislature.”

Porterfield, a Baptist preacher, heads up an organization called Blind Faith Ministries. The name is a reference to Porterfield being vision-impaired.

  1. His elevator is clearly stuck

    His elevator is clearly stuck somewhere around his anus. Whenever these bigots spout such foolishness, I always ask where he got his information and where's the documented proof. I never hear back on these, I presume, because it's all coming out of his ass — both sides of it.  How can people who actually live in the 21st Century and not in the 19th and early 20th, shut these morons down and fight back?  Clearly this one needs a kick where the sun don't shine!

...DON'T GO WITH THIS COMPANY AT AL. I got into my first accident, was not at fault whatsoever. I sent in photos, filed a police report. Just because I didn't have a witness, they even refused to hear out my story. This woman on the phone, Michelle, told me that even if I went before a judge, the accident would still be 50/50. This woman never once tried to find out more info or get the full story, I even filed a police report. All this place does is take money from you. I have a scratched bumper and the car that hit into me has money damage, so of course, I'm paying for it...

Posts Tagged ‘income tax’

In my last post I gave a little background on the principles on which this great country of ours was founded. It was not founded on political rhetoric, religious rhetoric, or even financial rhetoric. It was founded on sound, for-profit business principles and was originally colonized by people who understood these principles. This is how the colonies became strong enough to throw off the rule of Great Britain and is the only reason the revolutionary war was fought. Our war for independence was not fought for ideological reasons of any kind. It was fought over money and taxation. The colonists wanted the taxation practises of the mother country to be fair, and moderate enough to allow all the people being taxed to sustain a prosperous lifestyle. We now have a movement in conservative politics called the Tea Party, after the original patriot version of the same name. It is fighting for the same causes that our founding fathers did–money and taxation.

We have raised up in this country a generation who have what I have heard called “the entitlement spending” mentality. An increasing number of voters who believe it is the state or federal governments job to see to it they are doctored, fed, clothed, housed, and provided with an ample supply of spending money.  The roots of this generation go back to the time of the Civil War. Before this era, Americans fully expected to earn their own living whereby they provided for their families and other dependents. Generally, “other dependents” in the north meant servants/employees, in the south, slaves.

This “entitlement” generation has sprung from the least educated and therefore the lowest income bracket of the preceding five generations. The domestic servants, farm laborers(not owners), shop and business clerks, street sweepers, chimney sweepers, and the newly freed slave populations in the south. The wage earners as opposed to the wage generators. The people who depended on but did not have to actually run a business for their livelihood. The people who generally had their necessities met without the worry or headaches involved in the hands-on management of the for-profit business that generated the revenue for them. In a word, the servant/slave mentality, acquired through many generations of ordinary people who were accustomed to having the “master” provide all the items still expected by their entitlement mentality descendants. This is the mind-set that grew up in the farm kitchens, domestic servants halls, slave quarters and carriage houses of the Civil War era and has now embedded itself in our public forums like so much bindweed in a border. The legislative mentality that is in a fair way to choking the life out of our entire economy. The “entitlement spending mentality.”

The descendants of this group are the people who passed the social security measure during the Great Depression, and the revised-to-target-the-individual income tax amendment before that, sometime around WWI. You see I am tracing the timeline backward to the source of our current fiscal difficulties which are found in a certain segment of our people and not in our legislative process.

These entitlement spending supporters base their legislative goals on spite. Their spending criteria are motivated by a let’s screw the “rich” people, they deserve it, mindset. Why? They perceive “rich” people as being “the enemy” for some reason. Again, why? If an individual cannot be allowed to prosper in peace in this country, if parents are to be penalized for leaving their children well provided for, the country itself will certainly not prosper. It is not prospering now, is it? My thoughts on this are not new by any means. There was a cagey old Greek by the name of Aesop who wrote a fable about this subject awhile back. It was about a dog and his bone. Look it up sometime. It sets forth in very simple style why our nation is not prospering under the sway of this entitlement mentality.

It is now time to call a halt to the hostilities in the class war that have been moving our legislation for the last fifty years.  The “poor” against the “rich.” Those of you who have been so anxious to prevent “rich” people as though they were some kind of social disease have shot yourselves in the foot. You’re scared about your old age pensions now and basically, you deserve this.  You passed all the legislation you could think of to deprive “rich” people of theirs.

Me? I’m a conscientious objector in this war. It is against my American principles of justice and fair play to grudge people their wealth. Even if their parents left it to them, it is still not mine or really any of my business. We are not going to win the war on poverty by shooting rich people and I won’t support the notion that we should quietly strangle them with legislation either. This has been tried and the result is that now “poor” people have found their own heads in the noose instead. Sorry folks. This is no more than justice.

My next post will be–The War Against The Poor.
