Judy Blume Feted By National Coalition Against Censorship

by Chiara Atik · October 20, 2009

    [All photos by JP PULLOS for PMc]. Chances are, if you're a girl who grew up in America, you learned a lot from reading Judy Blume books. The author of "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret" and "Forever" has been keeping young readers informed and titillated for decades, which has made her a target of censorship initiatives for almost as long. Last night, Rachel Dratch, Martha Plimpton, and Junot Diaz were just a few of those to honor Blume at the National Coalition Against Censorship Gala.

    The event, titled "NCAC's 35th Anniversary Celebration-A Night Of Comedy With Judy Blume And Friends" was held at City Winery. The invited guests were asked to share a brief anecdote on growing up, puberty, or how they found the answers they were afraid to ask.

Hybrid Scales

A scale with an added passing tone or moving certain intervals up and down a half step within a scale to create a hybrid scale.

The E Blues Chromatic Scale Guitar Open String Position

The E Blues Chromatic Scale open string position is a hybrid scale made up of three scales. E Minor Pentatonic, E Blues and E Major 3rd Pentatonic Hybrid Scale. It is Minor Pentatonic Scale with the Major 3rd and Diminished 5th notes added to it. The five chromatic notes with the four half steps make a unique combination of passing tones. A lot of famous country guitar players  utilities this scale.

When playing the E Blues Chromatic Scale the Minor Pentatonic and Blues Scale will be the familiar scales to most guitar players. The Major 3rd is the dissonant note that makes it feel off, especially if it’s resolving to a Minor Chord. Outside chromatic notes work best to the V Chord or in turnarounds in Blues.

Having five chromatic notes also makes an awkward feel when phrasing. The common way to play through them is to not play them in a straight sequence but to traverse with whole steps and whole half steps and then pull off or hammer to the extra half step.

Phrasing passing tone notes in straight chromatic sequence can be done tastefully gliding across the notes fast. The real unique thing with this open fingering position is you have all four fingers lined up to a straight four finger per fret alignment. Having them all backed to a open note position making it easy to play fast alternate open note hammer on and pull offs. This opens up the exploration to many unique guitar open note lick possibilities.

E Blue Chromatic Scale            E Blues Chromatic / Min. Pentatonic            E Blues Chromatic / Blues            E Blues Chromatic / Maj3 Pentatonic

All the above guitar scale diagrams were created with Guitar Analyzer Publisher Edition Software

Here are some Hybrid scale examples that you can explore with the Guitar Analyzer Software. These scales can created by adding notes or moving notes to the Minor Pentatonic Scale. I’ll start with the adding note scale examples. The first Blues Scale example is a very common scale used in Blues and Rock, the A Blues Scales. This scale is from adding a Passing Tone b5 (Diminished 5th) note to the Minor Pentatonic Scale. The passing tone is the note not related to the notes of the Major Scale Key. Usually passing tones sound a little off when you play them but with this particular scale it has a great sound in most soloing situations were you would be using the Minor Pentatonic Scale.

The next Hybrid Blues Scale is the Blues Chromatic Scale that is created by adding two notes Minor Pentatonic Scale. It not only has the diminished 5th added but also the Major 3rd which is not always a passing tone. The unnatural thing about this scale it has four chromatic half steps in a row. A lot of country style guitar players use this scale and they apply a lot of unique chromatic lick variation to these half step notes in their solos.

The next hybrid blues scale is created by moving instead of adding notes by moving the Minor 3rd of the Minor Pentatonic scale up half step to the Major 3rd Interval. This gives a little bit of a Middle Eastern or Gothic sound. The scale relationship of this scales relates to the Mixolydian Mode the fifth degree of the Major Scale and the Phrygian Major Mode fifth degree of the Harmonic Minor Scale. This scale is used in solos by some Rock and Metal Guitar Players Kirk Hammett, George Lynch and Neal Schon, .

The last hybrid blues scale shown is also another scale from moving a note . This scale is is called the Major 6 Pentatonic Scale created by moving the Minor 7th of the Minor Pentatonic Scale down a half step to the Major 6th. The scale relationship of this scale relates to the Dorian Mode the second Degree of the Major Scale. This scale is used by some jazz and jazz fusion guitar players by artists like Allen Holdsworth, Robin Ford and Frank Gambale.

All the diagrams below can easily be explored in much greater depth within the Guitar Analyzer Software.

Guru Gayatri Kundaliani Yoga Seattle

Sada Simran Khalsa

Welcome to Guru Gayatri Yoga and Meditation Center, the Kundalini Heart of Seattle. Guru Gayatri welcomes you into the art and science of Kundalini Yoga. In our Sacred Community, each person is encouraged to reach their highest and purest potential. Through the practice of Kundalini Yoga, using the tools of Sacred Sound and Breath, we teach individuals to consciously evolve and build meaningful, authentic, and lasting relationships.

Guru Gayatri Yoga and Meditation Center is a Washington State Corporation 501c3 non-profit teaching and charitable organization.

After reading the information below, if you have any questions or you need more clarification about Kundalini Yoga, please feel free to email info [@]

Kundalini yoga is called the yoga of awareness. It is a dynamic, powerful tool that is designed to give you an experience of your soul. An uplifting blend of spiritual and physical practices, Kundalini yoga incorporates movement, dynamic breathing techniques, meditation, and the chanting of Mantras. The goal of this practice is to build physical vitality and increase consciousness.

Kundalini yoga is a practical tool for everyday people. It is not posture based; therefore, it’s accessible to everyone, regardless of age, gender, or body type. It’s powerful, efficient, and effective. It gives people the experience of connecting with their personal power, of having a clear mind and a wholeness of being.

Yoga is not a religion at all. It is a science and technology which combines breath, posture, sound, and movement. Consider that religion is how one worships the God. Yoga, on the other hand, makes one experience what it is that one worships.

Each Kundalini Yoga class incorporates movement, postures, breath, and meditation. Exercises will be taught in the form of a “kriya.” Each kriya is a specific sequence of exercises.

The deep profound transformational qualities of this style of yoga lies in the specific sequencing of these exercises. Each class is unique in that different kriyas in combination with various meditations will be taught. After the workout, time is set aside for deep relaxation during which the Gong will be played. A Mantra Meditation will follow. The sequencing for most classes is warm-ups, practicing a Kundalini Kriya followed by deep relaxation with Gong, and closing with a Mantra Meditation.

Meditation is the process of clearing the mind.  Meditation in Kundalini Yoga contains specific, practical tools that carefully and precisely support the mind and guide the body through the use of breath, mantra, mudra, and focus. The range and variety of meditation techniques in the Kundalini Yoga tradition is truly extraordinary. Yogi Bhajan passed on hundreds of meditations tailored to specific applications. There are meditations that reduce stress, work on addictions, increase vitality, and clear chakras, to name a few. While there exist many styles and approaches to meditation, what sets the Kundalini approach to meditation apart is its precision, effectiveness, and practicality.

What Should I Wear?

Wear comfortable clothes that you can move in easily. Natural fibers clothing is best for your electromagnetic field. Please bring your yoga mat and a blanket to cover yourself during the layout. You may also find you want a pillow.

Which Class Should I Take?

There are no levels in Kundalini yoga. We teach to all levels of experience in every class, newcomers as well as experienced yogis. Always feel free to introduce yourself to your yoga instructor if you are a new student or if you have a health concern.

The Gong is the creative Sound. When we want to clean our bodies, we use soap and water. A Gong bath uses sound and vibration to cleanse us on the inside – emotionally and physiologically. Relaxing while the Gong is played is a unique and highly personal experience. During a Gong layout, all levels of your Being – physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual – will benefit from the deep, healing resonance of the Gong.

What is a Kriya?

Kriya means completed action. It is an action that leads to a complete manifestation like a seed leads to a bloom, a thought into actuality, a desire to commitment. In Kundalini Yoga, a kriya is a series of postures, breath, and sound that work toward a specific outcome. There are kriyas that balance the glandular system, make you radiant, increase the flexibility of the spine, and many more.

Basic Breathing?

Breathing plays a vital role in the practice of Kundalini Yoga. Various breathing techniques will be taught and practiced during class. Here are a few principles to remember:

  1. Your rate of breathing and your state of mind are inseparable.
  2. The slower your rate of breathing, the more control you have over your mind.
  3. The mind follows the breath, as breath follows mind.
  4. Our experience in any given moment is relative to the quality of our breath in that moment.

What is a Mantra?

Mantra is the use of sound to affect consciousness. The word itself comes from ancient Sanskrit.  “Man” means mind; “Tra” means frequency. Chanting mantra produces a specific vibratory frequency within the body which draws the mind into alignment of one’s own Truth. Mantra chanting is compatible with all belief systems.

Movement-Based Control for Upper-Limb Prosthetics: Is the Regression Technique the Key to a Robust and Accurate Control?

Mathilde Legrand 1, 2 Manelle Merad 1, 2 Étienne de Montalivet 2, 1 Agnès Roby-Brami 1, 2 Nathanaël Jarrassé 1, 2
1 AGATHE - Assistance aux Gestes et Applications THErapeutiques
ISIR - Institut des Systèmes Intelligents et de Robotique, INSERM - Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale : U1150
Abstract : Due to the limitations of myoelectric control (such as dependence on muscular fatigue and on electrodes shift, difficulty in decoding complex patterns or in dealing with simultaneous movements), there is a renewal of interest in the movement-based control approaches for prosthetics. The latter use residual limb movements rather than muscular activity as command inputs, in order to develop more natural and intuitive control techniques. Among those, several research works rely on the interjoint coordinations that naturally exist in human upper limb movements. These relationships are modeled to control the distal joints (e.g., elbow) based on the motions of proximal ones (e.g., shoulder). The regression techniques, used to model the coordinations, are various [Artificial Neural Networks, Principal Components Analysis (PCA), etc.] and yet, analysis of their performance and impact on the prosthesis control is missing in the literature. Is there one technique really more efficient than the others to model interjoint coordinations? To answer this question, we conducted an experimental campaign to compare the performance of three common regression techniques in the control of the elbow joint on a transhumeral prosthesis. Ten non-disabled subjects performed a reaching task, while wearing an elbow prosthesis which was driven by several interjoint coordination models obtained through different regression techniques. The models of the shoulder-elbow kinematic relationship were built from the recordings of fifteen different non-disabled subjects that performed a similar reaching task with their healthy arm. Among Radial Basis Function Networks (RBFN), Locally Weighted Regression (LWR), and PCA, RBFN was found to be the most robust, based on the analysis of several criteria including the quality of generated movements but also the compensatory strategies exhibited by users. Yet, RBFN does not significantly outperform LWR and PCA. The regression technique seems not to be the most significant factor for improvement of interjoint coordinations-based control. By characterizing the impact of the modeling techniques through closed-loop experiments with human users instead of purely offline simulations, this work could also help in improving movement-based control approaches and in bringing them closer to a real use by patients.

An Edited Review of Charles Bukowski’s Scarlet

Posted by Scott Holstad on January 7, 2013

Charles Bukowski's ScarletCharles Bukowski’s Scarlet by Pamela Wood

My rating: 1 of 5 stars

January 6, 2013 — EDIT:

The author of this book emailed me today and wrote me a very gracious email when she could have rightly attacked me for being so mean spirited in my short, bad review of her book. She assured me of the truthfulness of the book’s contents and told me Bukowski’s publisher, John Martin, had vetted it, so that made it legitimate in my eyes. I feel really very bad for trashing another writer for no good reason. Buk was a hero of mine and I didn’t like seeing what was written about him. It’s as simple as that. Still, that didn’t give me reason to trash the author and I want to publicly apologize for that. I might go back and re-read the book now. I’m going to post my email to Ms. Wood for everyone to see, so that my apology is made public.

Dear Pamela,

Thank you for your gracious email — very unexpected. I feel about an inch tall now. I just went back and re-read that mini-review I wrote some time back and it was mean spirited and wrong of me to attack you, and for that I apologize. I still don’t like the book, but I’ll believe you when you say it’s true and having John Martin OK it speaks volumes, you’re right.

See, Bukowski has been my hero for many decades now. Among my most treasured possessions are books and t-shirts he autographed for me when he was obviously still alive. He and I corresponded, which meant a lot to me as a young writer. We also appeared in a lot of the same magazines together. I know he had a real sensitive side to him that he liked to hide with his gruff exterior, but I loved his tough guy image. And your book damaged that image I had of him. It was hard for me to believe he could be so p***y whipped, which is what it seemed like to me. I’m sure that was the case and kudos to you for making it happen. It just was hard for me to read. It was like seeing my hero toppled from the throne. Maybe that helps explain my hostility.

But nothing excuses my hostility. Again, I apologize profusely. I’m sorry for calling you a crappy writer. You were published by a good press and the writing was fine — I just didn’t like what was written. I’m sorry for making a personal attack against your appearance. That was really below the belt. I’m ashamed.

I’ve never done this, but I’m going to see if I can’t edit my book review and provide some more details and better context, complete with apology. I assume I can do this with Goodreads. If it’s any consolation to you, the only bad review one of my books got on that site was from someone who admitted in the review he hadn’t even read my book — he just wanted to trash it. That stung.

I’m glad you’ve worked so hard to become successful in your life and continued good luck to you in your endeavors. It must be something to be somewhat of a living legend. That’s something no one can take from you. Thanks again for your email.

Scott Holstad

I thought this was a terrible book by a crappy writer with an ax to grind, who also was extraordinarily narcissistic. She really felt like the world revolved around her and Bukowski jumped to be with her. She was a high school drop out who had a kid at something like age 15 who was a waitress at a dump. And one of the greatest authors in the world is drooling over her and does her every bidding cause she’s so great and she feels sorry for him, so she lets him near her. I found almost nothing in the book to be remotely credible. Buk may have had a thing for her, but she places far too much importance on herself, in my opinion. It also looks like she’s had some work done judging by the back cover photo. Honestly, I thought she was pond scum. Sorry.

    Ouch. I think this is a good example of one reason I am leery to pursue print publication. The nice thing about what I write in my blog is I can edit it even years later if I come to regret what I’ve written.

    At any rate, I’m glad you apologized.

Across deserts and oceans, endless stretches of interstellar tollways and ending (or beginning) in the borough of Brooklyn, the advent of Crown-Lites encapsulates the travels through space and time of Matt Kursmark and Mike Sarason. After nearly two decades of collaboration across numerous bands, tours and projects, Crown-Lites was officially formed as a production team when the two began experimenting with electromagnetic reel-to-reel recording techniques in early 2020. This process combined with a love of the esoteric unlocked a neoteric dominion of creation for the dyad, providing the promethean spark for their first release … An original soundtrack for a lost and hitherto unknown film, Forest of the Black Marigold.

Nobody expected it … and nobody could believe it … but could anyone comprehend it?

Would anyone dare step outside to confront the unknown? Or would forces greater than any individual weave a kinetic reaction tighter than previously imaginable.

Was the forest glowing? Or was it just a case of collective paranoia? Who would breach the forest line and uncover the truth about the powerful and mythical flower?

Would it blossom for doom or benefaction … pollenate life or death?
What will happen if you enter … Forest of the Black Marigold.

Morrison’s Origins:

In 1874 George Morrison Sr. platted the area that became the town of Morrison, a small gateway town in the Front Range of Colorado that was instrumental to and benefited from the gold rush.  Through the center of downtown Morrison flows Bear Creek, which serves as a source of water for Denver and Morrison itself.

Happy Shack’s “Doll House” Design:

The tiny little building that’s now Happy Shack has an interesting origin of its own, and was built specifically to be the library for the town of Morrison, Colorado.  The library didn’t start here, though; it was first organized as a section of a grocery store in 1938 before moving three more times.  In 1947, it was again displaced to make room for a liquor firm and this time Carl Peinze stepped in to give it a home once and for all on his property where he ran a local grocery and real estate office.  This property, once known as the Peinze House, is now the home of the delicious Latin bistro Beso de Arte.

Happy Shack MorrisonThat summer of 1947 a Mr. William Holmes at the age of 76 (wow!) built the little “doll house” now known as Happy Shack. The lumber was provided to fulfill a debt an unnamed mountain man owed to Carl Peinze and it is said that William’s wife (only known as Mrs. Holmes) and one Mary Wilson filled the tiny library’s shelves by hand-carrying 4,000 books from the multiple former library locations.  It is a shame we don’t know more about Mrs. Wilson, for she served as the town librarian in this little shack for many years.

The original shelves that used to house those thousands of books are still here, only now showing off unique and useful products that are at times equally interesting! Today, you’ll discover a unique assortment of jewelry, concert supplies, smoking accessories and unique souvenirs to take back with you and show off your Colorado swag from when you visited!

how to control maya myth false

Common belief system: We have no control whatsoever on any deed or it’s result.

WRONG – we have control over deeds and somewhat over results, varying full to negligible control. But we cannot, should never think that we are making things happen. No living being in this world has complete control over deeds or mannerisms. However there’s a catch to it, if we follow path of dharma and practice hardwork then no power in mother earth can stop us from becoming successful. Our maansik strength energises our physical strength and that result in realisation of our dream. Our maansik strength depends on our thoughts and thoughts depend on our upbringing, environment and teachings.

A person can become brave and strong by the thoughts seeded in the mind. Similarly, a coward or a foolish person is not so by birth but by the karmic inclinations he or she has, again it goes back to the thoughts and surroundings of the person. A person who is weak and gives up to the situation falls to the design of the Bhagwan.

Everyone’s existence in this world has some meaning, we all are interwined, each one of us – even if we are not socially or  umbilically  connected, we tend to influence each other. We are related in terms of teaching or learnings. We all are interlaced to each other as we learn from each other. Let’s peek into some real life examples, how giving up to the situation make animals out of people, we see victims felling into the Mayic design of Bhagwan (God). A drunkard starts by drinking for brief moments of fun with friends till he becomes so, while other friends continue to drink for fun and are not habitual to it, when such person dies – his death gives ALARMING message to his society and people around that drinking kills. Same goes for gambler, robber, thief, murderer, terrorist. All manifestations of negative energy set examples for us that WE SHOULD NOT BECOME LIKE THEM. They become so following provocations or submission to emotional design of God. They give us lessons sacrificing their lives due to their past or present Karma. They behave erratic as they do not repel the Mayic SCHEME of God – the entrapment dome that encloses all – pious and evil alike. After all everything in this multiverse is made by God himself. No one can escape his design. So now you may argue that GOD IS NOT COMPLETE, it allows PEOPLE TO SUFFER, only GOD IS RESPONSIBLE, let us BLAME God. NO… A big NO because God himself is showing LIVE examples of negative energies to inspire us to behave in HUMANIC manner. All those CULPRITS of BAD BEHAVIOUR can actually escape this entrapment of Bhagwan if they do their pious KARMA. We are what we are, as our KARMA makes us.

Karma is not FATE. True Karma is undying  confidence of believing whatever you do, doing ONLY the positive deeds – whether you are into a seva or a business or working for someone. Whatever activity you do, you have COMPLETE control over your deeds. NO ONE IN THIS WORLD, NOT EVEN GOD can stop you from following your FOCUSED GOAL – if at all – you are following it on your own.

Yes you will be pursued by negative people around you, to change your basic positive trait of Bhagwan to dwell into drinking, smoking, criminal or negative deeds, Yes you will be lured by the surrounding and mythical atmosphere to dive into such acts but WHO DOES THE ACT, YOU and no one else forces you. You are captive to your own manners, if you are indulging in the WRONG acts, you are running fast in the infinite vicious circle that never ends even with the death or thereafter – it follows you to the next birth, it continues till you CHANGE your behaviour.

Bhagwan gave us options to choose, freedom to select and openness to think. It is us who make mockery of opportunities and heavenly life of human that we get after millions of births as mosquitoes, spiders, donkeys – after crossing 84 lakh yonis of several creatures for millions of years – sometimes taking birth in the same yoni hundreds of times based on our past Karma.

There is only ONE WAY OUT to escape this negative design of Bhagwan; The path to undying hardwork, the Karma. It will take some time to show you results, in some cases even decades but rechannelising your energy to pious deeds or your positive goal can make you win over this entrapment. You will surely come out victorious.

Factors That Make You Victim of Mayic Design

Monitor closely moments that make you change decisions or fall prey to the Mayic design. You must control your emotions in that particular time. Yes, it is a TRIGGER moment making a person thief, murderer, drunkard or terrorist – one MOMENT of allurement or submission to mythical emotion that demotes the human as a slave of negative energy. That one moment result in failure or success.

Sample this real life situation of a person near you: A child grows up to become a nice person because of good parenting. This young man never drink alcohol or smoke. He was a well behaved citizen until he meets an old friend who takes him to a birthday party. Not to dishearten his friend and to impress girls around, he starts sipping few gulps of wine. This one MOMENT of sipping wine withers away 20 years of culture that was imbibed in him by the parents and teachers. The hardwork and dedication of parents drained. If he had controlled his emotions in that particular moment, he would have not become habitual to drinking and died as an infamous drunkard and a drug addict.

How it expands?

See: It is seen by the person and accepted

Read: Then for the first time it is acknowledged

Think: Person starts thinking about it

Practice: Becomes habitual to it

Whenever there is TURN OF EVENT or SUDDEN CHANGE IN PATTERN of your life. Ensure that you are in control of that CHANGE OF MOMENT. Ignoring positive pattern of your life you get trapped into Mayic design.

how mayic design pattern develops

The design enlarges it’s circumference with minor change in habits. Later on making a person addicted to the design. It rules through sensory elements of a body. Firstly, with minute influence then it scales up to uncontrollable ascendancy. All sensory elements; eyes, ears, nose, hands and tongue become slaves of this habit. Gradually making a person drunkard, meat-eater, thief, s*x addict, or murderer.

Stopping yourself in that particular moment protects you from falling into the DEEP WELL OF MAYIC DESIGN.

Never ever in your life TAKE ANY DECISION based on emotions. 100% of the times, mark my words – 100% of the times decision taken on emotions result in you losing the situation. Mythical emotion is designed by Bhagwan for us to lose our senses and fell into the trap.

How to tackle it?

Bhagwan gave us solution to escape from this mythical chakravyuh, a creation of Maya. Use your knowledge. Knowledge here means deep research and self-experience. Understanding repercussions and merit of the situation. Comprehending the future course that will impact the sudden urge of falling into emotions. Knowledge is not reading books or appearing top in competitions. Knowledge is opening your mind to immense introspection to scale situation from external point-of-view. To become neutral to yourself and the situation.

Let us take simple examples from history of India, how falling into one of the mythical designs of Bhagwan, course of history changed in Bharatvarsha.

Ravan was a learned Rakshas, he was so powerful that he had captured Kaal within his abode. With his deep penance and positive karma, he forced Brahma to gift him (almost) an immortal life. But his emotion of ahankar that being super rakshas, a human being with limited powers cannot kill him, he asked for the boon not to be killed by anyone but humans. He thought feeble, weak humans cannot harm him. This emotion of Ahankar designed his death.

Emotional design erodes mental, physical and spiritual elements

how mayic design controls a person

Anger is one such design of Bhagwan which makes animal out of an ordinary human. Anger begets anger. It has no limitations. If the anger is channelised for the protection of Nation and people, it brings happiness for all, however when it is done for personal benefit it causes demise of the empire. Shakuni a prince of Afghanistan (Gandhar pradesh) made anger his life existence. He was totally encapsulated in the anger, every move that he made in his life was based on this single POISONOUS emotion – anger. To avenge death of his parents and wishes of his father SubalRaj he brainwashed Kauravs against Pandavs since their childhood which made war and ultimately caused death to millions of warriors, two generations and entire empire.

Allurement or Love or Grief

Selfish love or allurement has no bounds. It blinds the person and diminishes thinking power. The creation of Mayajaal of Bhagwan is done by demigods who are guardians of different designs. Manthra was brainwashed by Maa Saraswati to provoke Kaikeyi Mata against Bhagwan Ram and Dashrath. Kaikaeyi mata in her blind love towards son and allurement to become Rajmata (mother of Ayodhya Raja Bharat), caused immense pain and grief to Dashrath who could never see his son again. The series of emotional submissions changed the course of history for Ayodhya and its erstwhile citizens.

There are majorly 64 types of emotions. Discussing emotions is out of scope of this vritant. Our moot point is to make you aware of the fact that it is up to you to change the situation for yourself. No one is your friend or guide but yourself.

Do not forget the sacrifices of great people like Ravan, Shakuni and Kaikeyi Mata as in their disreputation lies BIG lessons for all of us. Though we are not related to any one of them yet we somehow are connected to them in the form of disciples as they share same emotions like us, their submissions to Mayic designs made them befallen heroes though they achieved a lot in their lives; which no living person of the earth can think of.

  1. Shakuni ensured that Bhagwan Krishn took side of Pandavs. In a way, he was instrumental in annihilation of all anti-humans.
  2. Ravan forced Bhagwan Vishnu to take Avatar as Bhagwan Ram to establish dharma. Bhagwan Ram gave him sadgati.
  3. Kaikeyi Mata was most respected by Bhagwan Ram, post exile when Bhagwan Ram reached Ayodhya, the first person’s  health and well-being he enquired about was Maa Kaikeyi. Only a pious past or present Karma can make you so close to God himself.

When super humans of Ramayan submitting to petty emotions caused grave danger to the erstwhile society, imagine how much damage we all negligible mortals are causing to our world and family by falling to the bondage of emotions. so always CONTROL EMOTIONS.

Possible for everyone to break Mayic design

STOP BLAMING GOD for your failures and blunder prone decision-making process. You decide your own path and you choose to submit to the emotional entrapment. Bhagwan clearly told us in Srimad Bhagwad Geeta to do Karma, if you are true Yogi in human form then you will ONLY DO KARMA as doing Karma makes you neutral, breaks emotional cocoon and takes you external to the situation. DO NOT THINK ABOUT RESULTS. Just work hard and you can smash Mayic design of the Bhagwan.

Do you know who will be happy to see you breaking the Mayic design of Bhagwan, Bhagwan himself, he will smile and change your life for the betterment. It is KARMA alone that can change your so called fate or destiny. Try to control emotions, monitor those definitive MOMENTS, you will find immense peace and enlightenment in your work. Start slowly. Stop thinking about result, think about process, efforts and synergy to execute whatever you are doing. You will surely find success after initial series of failures.

"Biomedical nanotechnology for cancer diagnosis and therapy"

We are using “live cell lithography” to create in vitro three-dimensional microenvironments conducive to engrafting tumor cells, i.e. a metastatic niche, that reproduces the structure and mRNA expression observed in micro-metastases extracted from breast cancer patients, and then determine the effect of the microenvironment on the metastatic potential. By controlling the architecture of the tissue, the cell-type and position, as well as the flow and gradients of soluble signals, growth factors (GF) and nutrients we will discover the factors triggering metastasis with single cell resolution.

Another project involves the detection of proteins secreted from cells which can mediate intercellular communication and so affect gene expression. These proteins comprise a complex and sparse set of molecules referred to as the ‘secretome’. We are testing the feasibility of using a nanopore for analysis and manipulation of the secretome. Our results will extend the frontier of secretomics towards single molecule analysis with single cell resolution, offering an unprecedented probe of tissue heterogeneity. We hypothesize that the exquisite control over the electrostatic potential available in a silicon device—specifically, a nanopore in a dielectric membrane—can be exploited to trap and identify proteins, and even manipulate the secretome through cell transfection. We expect to use the potential in a nanopore to directly manipulate protein electrostatics, forcing it to denature. The corresponding forces will then be used to identify the protein. Furthermore, we expect that control over the electrostatic potential in a pore could be used to manipulate the secretome of a cell positioned close enough to the pore through transfection of nucleic acids via electroporation, so that the same device could be used to analyze and manipulate the secretome at the same time.

Rustic Renaissance: town’s Arts and Crafts heritage

Rustic Renaissance: town’s Arts and Crafts heritage

Haslemere Museum is delighted to present an intriguing new exhibition, The Rustic Renaissance which tells the story of how, in the early 1900s, Haslemere became a thriving centre for a community of artists and craftspeople, inspired by the Arts and Crafts Movement – one of the most influential international artistic movements of modern times.

It grew out of a concern for the effects of industrialisation on society and traditional skills in the late 1800s and the movement influenced many areas of the cultural landscape including architecture, garden design, clothing and home furnishings.

Lindsay Moreton, Collections Manager at Haslemere Museum explains: “The Peasant Arts Society as they became known, were determined to revive lost country crafts and so they set up craft workshops and weaving houses in the town teaching local girls to weave. They produced many different types of crafts, from striking hand woven textiles to printed cards, some of which survive in our collection.”

Founders of the movement, including Godfrey Blount and Joseph King also collected beautifully decorated household objects and intricately embroidered textiles from all over Europe and brought them back to Haslemere displaying them in their own Museum to inspire the local artisans. Joining them in this pursuit of collecting was Gerald Davies, a master at Charterhouse School in Godalming and his collection was later purchased by the Peasant Arts Society.

Lindsay says: “In 1926 this remarkable collection of European folk art was re-homed to Haslemere Museum where it remains today providing an insight into the rituals and patterns of life of the people who produced them.”

The exhibition will showcase wonderful objects from the Museum’s remarkable European Peasant Arts Collection as well as rarely seen textile designs made by local weavers. Also on display will be original artwork by Godfrey Blount as well as photographs and documents from the Peasant Arts archive.

The Horniman Museum and Gardens, London, has kindly loaned Haslemere Museum its Swedish folk art straw goats, which will be shown in this exhibition as part of Object in Focus, a project funded by Arts Council England. They will also be hosting a free family friendly craft workshop on 8t July, so do go along to Haslemere Museum and enjoy a fun morning making a summer wreath.

For anyone with an interest in local history, arts and crafts or simply want to find out more, this exhibition is a must!

The Rustic Renaissance exhibition opened on 1 July and runs until 2nd September, entry free. For more information visit

House Extension and internal alterations in Roundhay – Case Study

Brief: New porch, ground floor extension changing a single garage to a double, new utility & shower room to the rear and Internal alterations including reconfiguration of the existing staircase.

HB Architectural Services were delighted to complete this extension for our clients in Roundhay. Whilst the project consisted of lots of small changes, the collective overall impact of these has considerably improved the external appearance of the dwelling and the internal functionality.

The new porch and reconfiguration of the staircase makes for a much more welcoming entrance to the dwelling, whilst freeing up space to create an open plan kitchen dining area.

The introduction of velux roof windows and sun tunnels to the rear part of the extension brings natural light to the utility and shower room area in an otherwise ‘trapped’ area in plan. The existing large room to the rear has been subdivided into 2 separate rooms with bi-fold doors for multifunctional use as one larger or two smaller spaces.

The project was completed in two phases in order to reduce the impact on everyday living.

If you are living in Roundhay or the surrounding area and are interested in transforming your home, then call us today on 07792305719 to book your free initial visit and quotation. We have appointments 6 days a week and will be happy to meet you at a time that suits you.

Controversial business deals of 2020 that raised suspicions

Views: 149
Read Time:4 Minute, 54 Second

2020 was a rather bittersweet year for many people with many lows and some highs; The business space in Ghana was not spared by some controversies amid the deals that raised eyebrows, red flags, and others that even had to be halted.

Some of these controversial deals even caused political fallout for the country’s Special Prosecutor, the Auditor General among others.

Below are some of the controversial business deals of 2020.

Agyapa Royalties Deal

The passage of the Agyapa Royalties transaction agreement was one that became a major talk of the town in the business space.

Prior to approving the Agyapa Royalties transaction in 2020, Parliament in 2018 passed the Minerals Income Investment Fund (MIIF) Act 2018 which establishes the Fund to manage the equity interests of Ghana in mining companies and receive royalties on behalf of the government.

The deal which sought to use a Jersey-based special purpose vehicle would see almost 76 percent of the royalties generated from 16 large gold mines in Ghana under a scheme.

Additionally, some 49 percent of shares in Agyapa Royalties transaction are to be sold through a listing on the London Stock Exchange.

Following the approval, the Minority in Parliament, some Civil Society Organisations raised concerns over a lack of transparency surrounding the managers and beneficiaries of the deal.

Shortly after, the country first Special Prosecutor, Martin Amidu began a probe in the deal which resulted in a corruption risk assessment.

Read Also:

Martin Amidu in his report concluded there were major red flags in the deal particularly with breaches in the public procurement act and public financial management act.

He also noted the deal was susceptible to money laundering and possible bid-rigging in the contracting of advisors.

The Special Prosecutor and Presidency then began a back and forth of letters after it was alleged that President Akufo-Addo was tipped as the corruption kingpin by Martin Amidu.

On November 16, Martin Amidu resigned from his position as Special Prosecutor. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo before that had directed the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, to resend the deal back to Parliament for deliberation.

Kroll and Associates

Another deal that raised major red flags and political fallout involved a firm named Kroll and Associates from the UK and the Government of Ghana.

The Auditor-General, Daniel Domelovo, accused the Ministry of Finance following the release of its annual report on Public Accounts of Ghana (PAG), of paying Kroll and Associates, a private UK-based advisory firm, US$1 million for no work done to warrant such payments.

The report said that there were various inconsistencies in some of the documentation and as to how the contract was awarded for the firm.

“Though the contract was signed in September 2017, some of the invoices attached to the payment vouchers predated the award of the contract,” the Auditors General report noted.

The Finance Ministry in 2017 acquired the services of Kroll Associates to recover assets from identified wrongdoers, probe allegations of wrongdoing, provide evidence for assets recoveries, build capacity for the transfer of skills, offer council on preventative techniques and structures to detect and forestall future corruption.

The Auditor-General then fingered the Senior Minister, Yaw Osafo-Maafo, as being part of the deal after he alleged his persistent failure to provide proof of actual work done by the firm.

Daniel Domelovo on his part then surcharged Osafo-Maafo and the four other officials from the Ministry of Finance. He also disallowed the payment of the US$1 million to Kroll and Associates, which the government, through the Ministry of Finance had authorized.

After a trade-off of words in public by the Senior Minister and Auditor General, the office of the President on June 29, 2020, directed the Daniel Domelovo to proceed on his accumulated leave for 123 days.

The directive was met with some public displeasure with some critics describing the move as dictatorial.

The President in a statement also directed the Auditor General to hand over all matters relating to his office to Mr. Johnson Akuamoah Asiedu, the Deputy Auditor-General, to act as Auditor-General, “until his return from his well-deserved leave.”

The statement explained that the President’s decision was based on sections 20 (1) and 31 of the Labour Act, 2003 (Act 651) which apply to all workers, including public office holders such as the Auditor-General.

Daniel Domelovo on his part said he was very much aware that his work was “embarrassing the government” hence the directive by the President.

In response to the President’s directive, the Auditor General said the move had, “serious implications for the constitutional independence of the office of the Auditor-General.”

Payboy Company Limited

Following the closure of defunct gold dealership firm in 2018, Menzgold Limited, emerged Payboy Company Limited, an alleged offshoot of the defunct gold trading company.

Payboy’s sudden emergence raised some red flags after the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) revealed that officials of the digital payment, marketing and promotions company had to be arrested due to their lack of requisite licence to operate from the Bank of Ghana or the Security and Exchanges Commission.

The company on its part was requesting customers to pay an amount of money in order to retrieve their locked-up funds from the defunct gold-trading company, Menzgold Company.

“Initial investigations have revealed that the company was operating without the requisite licenses from either the Bank of Ghana or the Security and Exchanges Commission,” EOCO explained.

Further investigations revealed Menzgold appointed Payboy as a third-party entity to negotiate the settlement with customers of the defunct gold dealership firm.

Imagine if you never brushed your teeth or had them cleaned. Pretty frightening, right? As you can guess, things would eventually start to go very bad inside your mouth: teeth would rot and decay, gums would become inflamed and infected. Bacteria from those rotting teeth would eventually travel into your bloodstream and could cause other serious health problems. And we haven’t even mentioned the debilitating pain.

It’s the same scenario for your dog or cat. While some people might laugh at the idea of brushing their pet’s teeth or taking them for a dental cleaning, the fact is that by age 3, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have some evidence of periodontal disease. Periodic dental exams help maintain proper oral hygiene and prevent future problems.

Head to Tail Animal Hospital offers complete pet oral health services, including:

  • Dental exams
  • Annual dental cleanings
  • Dental X-rays
  • Extractions

Following American Veterinary Medical Association guidelines, Head to Tail Animal Hospital only does cleanings and dental work on anesthetized pets. To ensure your pet is healthy enough to undergo anesthesia, we do require a routine blood test before the procedure.

Preventive Dental Care

Brushing your pet’s teeth several times per week is the best way to prevent plaque and tartar build-up. Interested in learning how to brush your pet’s teeth? Just ask and our veterinarians will be happy to help you get started. If you have a pet that won’t tolerate brushing, our veterinarians can also recommend products that will help keep your pet’s mouth healthy in between cleanings.

To make an appointment for a dental exam or cleaning, call us at 631-928-6694.

Nichols Border Security Expert Addresses Government Shutdown’s Impact on Airports

It was reported Friday, Jan. 25, that the Federal Aviation Administration halted flights to LaGuardia Airport in New York City because of a shortage of air-traffic control staff. Heard on The Hill spoke about the situation with Dr. Stephen Morreale, D.P.A., a border security expert who teaches in the Nichols College Counterterrorism Studies program and at Worcester State University. Here’s what he told us:

Nichols College Professor Dr. Stephen Morreale

“Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, being inconvenienced by airport security has been accepted more and more by the general public. Now, however, the inconvenience of not being able to fly to where we need to go has surpassed our initial feelings of inconvenience. This shutdown will impact commerce, travelers, costs associated with traveling—like people needing to pay for hotel stays and car rentals due to lack of flights or needing to get to their location—and the cost of their time. I’ve not seen a situation like this last this long.”

Professor Morreale has extensive experience in the criminal justice field and teaches border security and cybersecurity at Nichols. He served as Military Police in the U.S. Army, and worked for the New Hampshire City Police Department. He also has experience as special agent and group supervisor for the U.S. Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration, assistant special agent in charge for the Office of Investigations, and as inspector general for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Lorraine U. Martinelle is director of public relations and social media at Nichols College in Dudley, Mass.
