FWIW, I think someone said that the weights listed for kite fabrics generally do not include the weights of any treatments applied to it.

From that kitebuilder site this looked promising. Not bad at 70g for 5' Also, the previous link you passed along on the Bridge thread. But, I keep remembering what Ron Bell said on his site ".355 outside diameter Multi-Ply- Multi Direction carbon fiber construction- Not just a simple pultruded or wrapped in one direction tube like cheaper CF poles" I wonder if that's the same as kitebuilder talking about unidirectional and a radial wrap?? I went back to the graphitestore site So it seems the uni, pultruded isn't the best way to go but go for the uni-rolled wrap like this one Read the remarks there. So I still don't know which CF to get.....

Those fabrics are zp (Zero porosity) which means that they are typically impregnated with a plastic resin... Usually melamine or polycarbonate (mylar) as a liquid (melted) that soaks the fibres and is then rolled flat and thin between metal rollers. Should be waterproof and totally NOT breathable.
The sailcloth is really neat stuff, and often direct source can be cheaper but quantities are usually huge. Kitebuilder often has sales on seconds or overstock that is cheep. I bought a bunch at less than $4 a yard.... Like someone else mentioned I'd use it for tarps, but probably not a hammock. Last edited by Rapt; 09-05-2007 at 13:29.. |

people use spinnaker sail cloth for tarps.
i bought some kite cloth a while back. it feels like magazine paper, it was listed as .75 oz, but the coating is extreme, and it is much heavier than silnylon. yes, i also would like to know if the hh is cut on the bias. can anyone tell? the older hh's that i've laid in didn't have anymore stretch than a reg. cut hammock. if they were cut on the bias, i would think there would be a very noticable amount of stretch. hennessy has alot of crazy stuff in his patents that he doesn't actually use in his commercial designs. i would think a hammock that was cut on the bias would stretch way too much, causing sever shoulder squeeze. for instance, 1.1 stretches more than 1.9 and so it has more shoulder squeeze. a bias cut would stretch way more than even 1.1, i would think. |

My HH (Expedition) does not appear to be bias cut. The "grain" of the fabric runs parallel/perpendicular to the sides.

I am very familiar with ZP from when I used to skydive. You do not want to make a hammock from ZP. A fly maybe, but not a hammock. It's like wrapping yourself in mylar.

Basically the titles name here, is Andre Berto a worthy name on a resume to legitimately place you atop the ww division? Berto has looked horrible everytime he steps up his competition yet he has the power/speed to make you cautious. He is better than anyone devon or Bradley have beaten at WW but is he enough to say guerrero is a top contender? Hes coming off a long layoff an injury and a steroid scandal, what do you guys think? A solid opponent or is the ghost just being opportunistic?

victor ortiz is a big dude. not sure how he was making 140 to be honest. Me either, and he was bigger than Berto. The fact that he was new to the weight, just made it sad in Berto's case, though Victor was more than likely that size all along. Ortiz was pulling a Brandon Rios, before he moved up to fight Berto. I remember Ortiz always outweighing his opponents by about 13 or more lbs. aydin is a single handed fighter am still a fan (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) guy reminds me of me when i first learned to box (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

What our readers have to say
In today's real estate market the average person is faced with disdain and uncertainty. With all the talks of a recession, and a slow down in the housing market, it's hard for the average homebuyer to make a decision to buy or not to buy. Last month's issue "The Real Estate Survival Guide" went over some relevant points on making prudent judgments about purchasing a home here in Hawaii. It gave basic but necessary information that all homebuyers should know, while also giving the reader confidence in making a purchase. The article enables the reader to think and ask themselves questions, such as "Just because the bank says that you can afford a $3,000 payment doesn't mean you can." Every homebuyer needs to understand what they can and cannot afford, and every lender that they interview with should be asking them the same question. Most importantly, it encourages the reader to feel comfortable with presenting questions to their lender related to their financing needs.

I just read your February 2008 article on "The Greenest Green House" and thought it was a great read about Green Building in Hawaii. When you think about Green Building you automatically think about just the design but wouldn't it also be nice to read about the process.
I am currently employed by a general contractor that is rated in ENR's "Top 50 Green Contractors in 2007." And I think it would be great if you did an article on GC's in Hawaii that have LEED certification and the process of green building. It's amazing to find out how many LEED certified projects there are on our island and what the process entails.
Thanks much and keep up the good work!

How to Repair an iPhone from Water Damage
Edited by IPhoneRepair, Brooke Smallwood, Teresa, Maluniu and 1 other
Anyone who has dropped their iPhone into water knows the panic that can set in from the damage that water can cause to your iPhone. This guide is a step by step guide to save your iPhone from water damage with over a 95% success rate.
1After your iPhone has been subjected to moisture/ water damage, do not try to turn your device on. This is the #1 cause of a dead phone after exposure to liquid damage. If you turn on your device while it still has moisture/ liquid in it, you can very easily short-circuit your iPhone which will fry the iPhone's motherboard.Ad
2As soon as you get the phone out of the water, or whatever liquid it may have been exposed to, dab off as much of the liquid as possible from the outside of the phone.
3Using a pentalobe (5-point) screw driver, remove the two screws at the bottom of the iPhone (this is for the iPhone 4/ iPhone 4S/ iPhone 5.) If you don't have the screw driver, skip to step #6.
4Remove the battery, motherboard, and any other components that were exposed to liquid damage.
5Clean off the motherboard and other components with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (rubbing alcohol) a lint-free microfiber. Be sure to carefully clean off the connectors on the motherboard and accessories to remove the corrosive properties of the liquid.
6Place the motherboard and other components inside of a closed Tupperware container with silica gel for 24-48 hours. Place the entire phone in silica gel if you could not remove the back to get to the components.
7After reassembling the iPhone, turn it on to see if it works. If the iPhone turns on, but the LCD is cloudy, that means it has absorbed water, and you will need to replace the LCD. With this iPhone water damage procedure, we have had a 95% success rate on iPhone 4/ iPhone 4S/ and iPhone 5.Ad
Things You'll Need
- Silica Gel
- If no silica gel, use rice
- Pentalobe Screw Driver

By Jordan Hoffman March 22, 2010 |
I've seen David Cronenberg's Videodrome countless times, yet I still can't tell you what's "real" in that film and what isn't.
All I know is that at some point, special science fiction television signals force James Woods to get off on whipping a woman trapped inside of a TV.
Talk about a sex alternative. This movie is sci fi and Canadian. A combo like that and anything goes.
Sex with robots isn't really a sci fi sex alternative, it is what we thought we'd be spending most of our time doing by the year 2010.
A subgenre unto itself, we really wanted to hold off on this topic - that is until we remembered that the bizarre cult sci fi (alleged) comedy Galaxinia didn't just feature any old sex robot, but a Playboy Playmate sex robot in Dorothy Stratten.
IIn space, no one can hear you scream "Va Va Voom!"

We've already seen Eu que Fiz help those in Brazilian favelas to start their own catering businesses. Now New York City-based FoodtoEat.com wants to get immigrant workers running food trucks to learn how to use digital technology to boost their businesses.
Founded by 26-year-old Deepti Sharma Kapur, the company is hoping to make ordering online from food trucks as easy as it has become for customers of large restaurants and takeaways. FoodtoEat.com has a large, searchable database of independent food retailers – both small restaurants and food trucks – from which its users are able to order meals for delivery or pick-up without hassle. Rather than relying on footfall, the platform opens up those businesses – which are often run by immigrants or workers without the resources to set themselves up online – to a much larger audience. When a customer makes a payment through the site, a ticket is printed on a GPRS device at the food truck with the order details. Diners can then simply pick up their meal after a short wait. The following interview with Fast Company offers more information about the project:
In order to build trust among the community of food truck owners in NYC, as well as run a sustainable business, FoodtoEat.com only charges USD 0.10 per order, rather than to ten to 18 percent taken by services working with larger food companies. Could this model work for businesses in other industries that rely on brick-and-mortar points of sale?

Fearful self-made man fights back against Obama with ad
America's wealthy are worried about Obama who is scapegoating them.
The wealthy are worried and they're buying ad time to make their case to the American people as to why they are not the villains Obama is making them out to be. One billionaire, Thomas Peterffy, has already spent $5 million for ads that inform voters about the risks of socialism.
Peterffy is a living embodiment of the American dream, but now Obama says he's not paying his fair share.
For some, it's a slap in the face after they have contributed millions in revenues to the government.
The great concern is that the government with its creeping tax hikes on the wealthy is essentially sneaking socialism in via the back door. After all, politicians gain easy votes by pledging to take from the rich to give to the poor.
What must be understood is that America was a nation founded by businessmen who wanted economic freedom among others. Most of the founding fathers were businessmen of one sort or another. Weary of what they saw as excessive taxation and regulation, they combined with other frustrated colonists to cast off British rule.
Their success allowed them and their descendants, right down to us, the world's wealthiest nation. It is also a land of unbridled opportunity, permitting anyone with a good idea and a willingness to work to build a fortune for themselves.
This is what Thoman Peterffy did. He was born in Hungary in 1944, as the Red Army attacked that country's capitol. He grew up impoverished in the subsequently established socialist state. In 1965, he managed to emigrate to the US, where he became a computer programmer on Wall Street.
Peterffy learned English, and eventually created a program that allowed brokers to make trades online. He built his business, "Interactive Brokers" and eventually paid nearly $2 billion in taxes on it.
He has created jobs, and donated to causes.
Yet, he is being told that he's not doing enough by the rhetoric of the Obama administration.
Peterffy is worried that anti-capitalist rhetoric of the administration could dissuade millionaires and billionaires from creating jobs and take their money elsewhere. This has happened in France, where overtaxed elites have already begun a mass exodus in the face of ever-increasing tax rates.
Paterffy crated a commercial that does not mention political parties, but shares his concerns with viewers. He hopes that people watch and carefully consider their decision this November. There is more at stake than many people realize.

I think this business person is right. And it's what happens when the right and left make these broad generalizations about people. Not all wealthy are those who cratered are economy and were held harmless. Not all people in the 47% that Romney calls out are parasites. But I think both narratives will continue so long as those responsible, politicians and otherwise, are held to account for the economic collapse. And the "47%" narrative continues so long as there are those that really are not doing their part in this country and living on the labor and wealth of others.
It's not either/or but both/and. Half of Wall Street and half of DC should have been in handcuffs after the collapse. Nope, bonuses, re-elections and taxpayer protection of wealth? That really inspires confidence in our system. To the businessmen, well I guess someone is going to have to pay the bills and I guess they only people they can go to are those with all the money. As some did in France, I guess you can pack it up and leave as others have done. Sad, sad place we find ourselves. -

Dear Mr. Peterffy, thank you so much for speaking out against the evil Obama and his socialist agenda. You are truly an expert on this subject, since you have actually lived under
socialism. And my fellow Catholics-need to wake up- because socialism is GODLESS!
May our Lord and Saviour, continue to bless you and keep you safe.

Wyoming at heart, Keisel beloved by Pittsburgh fans
Wyoming at heart, Keisel beloved by Pittsburgh fans
by randy tucker The rush of reporters surrounding him said more about his character and career than any of his already impressive statistics. Greybulls Brett Keisel is at a crossroads in his football career. The 35-year-old former Buff played perhaps his last NFL game against the Cleveland Browns at home in the friendly confines of Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. While most post-game interviews focus on the coach, quarterback or owner, the Pittsburgh press and later the fans, surrounded their favorite, transplanted Yinzer number 99 following the Steelers 20-7 win over the rival Browns. The game finished the regular season and the errant toe of Kansas Citys Ryan Succop eliminated the Steelers from the playoffs a few hours later in San Diego. A nagging case of plantar fasciitis has plagued the 6-6 285-pound defensive end for most of the season but on the final day of the season the speed, power and experience that has made him a mainstay of the Steelers defense was evident once again. Keisel tallied a quarterback sack, a tackle for loss and forced a fumble in perhaps his final game. As the final gun sounded Keisel made his way to the center of the field and found Browns all-pro lineman Joe Thomas. Thomas and Keisel have battled for years and the mutual respect was evident as both 6-6 giants gave each other a big hug and shook hands following the contest. As Keisel walked towards the tunnel to exit the stadium a crowd of three thousand fans huddled together just above the exit trying to get his attention. The big man took the time to shake or slap hands with everyone in reach then departed for the depths of the Heinz Field home locker room. A professional football locker room following a game is often a zoo of players, coaches, media and organization workers. This afternoon all the attention focused on #99 as only a handful of reporters spoke with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger or other players. The primary question centered on the Steelers faint playoff hopes at that point and on Keisels future. Keisel answered eloquently and stated he would like to return to the Steelers for another season but understood the practicalities of professional football and decisions that had to be made for the good of the team. As the crowd cleared he was asked if he had any message for the kids back home in Greybull. Though obviously weary from playing a game on a cold day in the rain and from answering a half-hour of questions he immediately brightened up and said, Yea, the Buffs are having a great year. Theyve won like seven games in a row. I read the Greybull Standard every week and follow the basketball team in the paper and on the Internet. Tell them to keep up the good work. When told the Buffs were the favorite this season in the Northwest Conference, even over traditional power Lovell, Keisel grinned and said, Its always a good season if you beat the Bulldogs. His humility is compelling and one of the reasons he is a favorite in the working class city of Pittsburgh. Keisel is one player who has never forgotten his roots. Whether those roots are in playing football for the Buffs, in the low post for the same team or running a leg of the 4×100 meter dash and throwing the shot and discus Keisel maintains his roots in Big Horn County. His career stats speak for themselves with just under 400 tackles, 29 sacks and a single interception that resulted in his only touchdown, a 79-yard return against Tampa Bay at Raymond James Stadium in 2010. It may be the conclusion of a great career for the defensive end but the Steelers would be wise to find a spot for a man with such incredible rapport with the fans and the Steel City as a whole. http://www.greybullstandard.com/?p=2125 |

Man he's another I'm gonna miss when he leaves. Is it just me or would he make a great color guy like Tunch and Wolfley? Keisel seems to be a charismatic enough guy. and able to laugh at himself.

RAP1 Protects from Obesity through Its Extratelomeric Role Regulating Gene Expression
Cell Reports, Volume 3, Issue 6, 27 June 2013, Pages 2059-2074
Paula Martínez, Gonzalo Gómez-López, Fernando García, Evi Mercken, Sarah Mitchell, Juana M. Flores, Rafael de Cabo and Maria A. Blasco
SummaryRAP1 is part of shelterin, the protective complex at telomeres. RAP1 also binds along chromosome arms, where it is proposed to regulate gene expression. To investigate the nontelomeric roles of RAP1 in vivo, we generated a RAP1 whole-body knockout mouse. These mice show early onset of obesity, which is more severe in females than in males. Rap1-deficient mice show accumulation of abdominal fat, hepatic steatosis, and high-fasting plasma levels of insulin, glucose, cholesterol, and alanine aminotransferase. Gene expression analyses of liver and visceral white fat from Rap1-deficient mice before the onset of obesity show deregulation of metabolic programs, including fatty acid, glucose metabolism, and PPARα signaling. We identify Pparα and Pgc1α as key factors affected by Rap1 deletion in the liver. We show that RAP1 binds to Pparα and Pgc1α loci and modulates their transcription. These findings reveal a role for a telomere-binding protein in the regulation of metabolism.

Reconstructing and Deconstructing Agonist-Induced Activation of Integrin αIIbβ3
Current Biology, Volume 16, Issue 18, 19 September 2006, Pages 1796-1806
Jaewon Han, Chinten James Lim, Naohide Watanabe, Alessandra Soriani, Boris Ratnikov, David A. Calderwood, Wilma Puzon-McLaughlin, Esther M. Lafuente, Vassiliki A. Boussiotis, Sanford J. Shattil and Mark H. Ginsberg
Integrin receptors, composed of transmembrane α and β subunits, are essential for the development and functioning of multicellular animals. Agonist stimulation leads cells to regulate integrin affinity ("activation"), thus controlling cell adhesion and migration, controlling extracellular-matrix assembly, and contributing to angiogenesis, tumor cell metastasis, inflammation, the immune response, and hemostasis. A final step in integrin activation is the binding of talin, a cytoskeletal protein, to integrin β cytoplasmic domains. Many different signaling molecules that regulate integrin affinity have been described, but a pathway that connects agonist stimulation to talin binding and activation has not been mapped.
We used forward, reverse, and synthetic genetics to engineer and order an integrin activation pathway in cells expressing a prototype activatable integrin, platelet αIIbβ3. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) activated αIIbβ3 only after the increased expression of both recombinant protein kinase Cα (PKCα) and talin to levels approximating those in platelets. Inhibition of Rap1 GTPase reduced αIIbβ3 activation, whereas activated Rap1A(G12V) bypassed the requirement for PKC, establishing that Rap1 is downstream of PKC. Talin binding to integrins mediates Rap1-induced activation because Rap1A(G12V) failed to activate αIIbβ3 in cells expressing integrin binding-defective talin (W359A). Rap1 activated integrins by forming an integrin-associated complex containing talin in combination with the Rap effector, RIAM. Furthermore, siRNA-mediated knockdown of RIAM blocked integrin activation.
We have, for the first time, ordered a pathway from agonist stimulation to integrin activation and established the Rap1-induced formation of an "integrin activation complex," containing RIAM and talin, that binds to and activates the integrin.

Telomere binding of the Rap1 protein is required for meiosis in fission yeast
Current Biology, Volume 11, Issue 20, 16 October 2001, Pages 1618-1623
Yuji Chikashige and Yasushi Hiraoka
SummaryTelomeres are essential for chromosome integrity, protecting the ends of eukaryotic linear chromosomes during cell proliferation [[1, 2]]. Telomeres also function in meiosis; a characteristic clustering of telomeres beneath the nuclear membrane is observed during meiotic prophase in many organisms from yeasts to plants and humans [[3–9]], and the role of the telomeres in meiotic pairing and the recombination of homologous chromosomes has been demonstrated in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe[[9–14]] and in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae[[15]]. Here we report that S. pombe Rap1 is a telomeric protein essential for meiosis. While Rap1 is conserved in budding yeast and humans, schemes for telomere binding vary among species: human RAP1 binds to the telomere through interaction with the telomere binding protein TRF2 [[16]]; S. cerevisiae Rap1, however, binds telomeric DNA directly [[17]], and no orthologs of TRF proteins have been identified in this organism. In S. pombe, unlike in S. cerevisiae, an ortholog of human TRF has been identified. This ortholog, Taz1, binds directly to telomere repeats [[18]] and is necessary for telomere clustering in meiotic prophase [[11, 12]]. Our results demonstrate that S. pombe Rap1 binds to telomeres through interaction with Taz1, similar to human Rap1-TRF2, and that Taz1-mediated telomere localization of Rap1 is necessary for telomere clustering and for the successful completion of meiosis. Moreover, in taz1-disrupted cells, molecular fusion of Rap1 with the Taz1 DNA binding domain recovers telomere clustering and largely complements defects in meiosis, indicating that telomere localization of Rap1 is a key requirement for meiosis.

Add/View Comments (0)The Drosophila Roughened mutation: Activation of a rap homolog disrupts eye development and interferes with cell determination
Iswar K. Hariharan, Richard W. Carthew and Gerald M. Rubin
- Roughened is a dominant mutation of D. melanogaster that disrupts eye development. The majority of the ommatidia in the adult eye lack a single photoreceptor cell, which is most commonly the R7 cell. The Roughened mutation disrupts the early stages of photoreceptor cell determination. Roughened is a dominant gain-of-function mutation that results from a single amino acid change (Phe157 to Leu) in the Drosophila Rap1 protein. Loss of function Rap1 mutations are lethal. Drosophila Rap1 protein is 88% identical to human rap1A/K-rev1 protein, a putative antagonist of ras action.

It's Always Sunny in Detroit:
Detroit Red Wings forward Darren Helm appeared to have suffered a scary injury during Game One against the Nashville Predators in tonight's game. As the video below shows, Helm ran into Preds winger Alexander Radulov along the boards. Radulov's skates came up in the air and appeared to make contact with Helm's wrist.
Almost immediately, Helm felt something that more than likely was blood. Obviously spooked, he skated straight to the bench shaking off his other glove to start applying pressure. No official word on what happened, but we will update you when possible.

Dhyana in Hinduism
In most of the later Hindu traditions[note 1] dhyana (Sanskrit) is "a refined meditative practice",[1] a "deeper concentration of the mind".[1] Dhyana is taken up after preceding exercises,[1] and leads to samadhi and self-knowledge, separating māyā from reality to help attain the ultimate goal of mokṣa.
The term dhyana is used in the Jain, Buddhism and Hinduism, with somewhat different meanings.[1] The Jains, who formed part of the shramana movement, may have been the first to practice dhyana.[1] In the Hindu tradition the term dhyana first appears in the Upanishads.[1] In most of the later Hindu traditions, which derive form Patanjali's Raja Yoga, dhyana is "a refined meditative practice",[1] a "deeper concentration of the mind",[1] which is taken up after preceding exercises.[1] In Hinduism, dhyāna is considered to be an instrument to gain self-knowledge, separating māyā from reality to help attain the ultimate goal of mokṣa.
Bhagavad Gita[edit]
The Bhagavad Gītā, thought to have been written some time between 400 and 100 BC, is a 700-verse scripture that is part of the Hindu epic Mahabharata. In the form of a dialogue between Pandava prince Arjuna and his guide Lord Krishna[note 2] it presents a synthesis[3][4] of the Brahmanical concept of Dharma[3][4][5] with bhakti,[6][5] the yogic ideals[4] of liberation[4] through jnana,[6] and Samkhya philosophy.[web 1][note 3] It is the "locus classicus"[7] of the "Hindu synthesis"[7] which emerged around the beginning of the Common Era,[7] integrating Brahmanic and shramanic ideas with theistic devotion.[7][4][5][web 1]
The Bhagavad Gitatalks of four branches of yoga:
- Karma Yoga: The yoga of action in the world
- Jnāna yoga: The yoga of Wisdom and intellectual endeavor
- Bhakti Yoga: The yoga of devotion to God
- Dhyāna Yoga: The yoga of meditation
The Dhyana Yoga system is specifically described by Sri Krishna in chapter 6 of the Bhagavad Gita, wherein He explains the many different Yoga systems to His friend and disciple, Arjuna. In fact, Lord Shankar described 108 different ways to do Dhyana to Mata Parvati.
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali[edit]
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali outline Ashtanga Yoga[8] (eightfold, eight-limbed) or Raja Yoga. Dhyana is the seventh limb of this path.[9]
Compilation and dating[edit]
Radhakrishnan and Moore attribute the Yoga Sutras to Patañjali, dating it as 2nd century BCE, during the Maurya Empire (322–185 BCE).[10] Scholars such as S.N. Dasgupta,[11] claim this is the same Patañjali who authored the Mahabhasya, a treatise on Sanskrit grammar.[12] Indologist Axel Michaels disagrees that the work was written by Patañjali, characterizing it instead as a collection of fragments and traditions of texts stemming from the 2nd or 3rd century.[13] Gavin Flood cites an even wider period of composition, between 100 BCE and 500 CE.[14]
The Eight Limbs[edit]
The eight limbs are:
The stage of meditation preceding dhyāna is called dharana.[15][16] In the Jangama Dhyāna technique, the meditator concentrates the mind and sight between the eyebrows. According to Patañjali, this is one method of achieving the initial concentration (dhāraṇā: Yoga Sutras, III: 1) necessary for the mind to become introverted in meditation (dhyāna: Yoga Sutras, III: 2). In deeper practice of the technique, the mind concentrated between the eyebrows begins to automatically lose all location and focus on the watching itself. Eventually, the meditator experiences only the consciousness of existence and achieves self realization. Swami Vivekananda describes the process in the following way:
When the mind has been trained to remain fixed on a certain internal or external location, there comes to it the power of flowing in an unbroken current, as it were, towards that point. This state is called dhyana. When one has so intensified the power of dhyana as to be able to reject the external part of perception and remain meditating only on the internal part, the meaning, that state is called Samadhi.[17]
In Dhyana, the meditator is not conscious of the act of meditation (i.e. is not aware that s/he is meditating) but is only aware that s/he exists (consciousness of being), and aware of the object of meditation. Dhyana is distinct from Dharana in that the meditator becomes one with the object of meditation. This means that the meditator although aware of the object through meditation detaches him/erself from its existence in the physical world. Much like meditation focused on the breath Dhyana is rooted in the concentration of not being concentrated.[15][16]
The final stage of meditation in dhyāna is considered to be jhāna. At this stage of meditation, one does not see it as a meditational practice, but instead merges with the idea and thought. One cannot reach a higher stage of consciousness without jhāna.[web 2]
Ultimately Dhyana leads to the final stage of Yoga, Samādhi.[15][16] He/she is then able to maintain this oneness for 144 inhalations and expiration.
Dhyana, practiced together with Dharana and Samādhi constitutes the Samyama. Samyama's goal is to fully detach the mind from its physical world bindings. This aids the Yogis in reaching an enlightenment where a self or spirit is truly acknowledged, and made aware of. Samyama also can lead to one's accomplishment of repelling the human need for objects putting the Yogis in a state of self-satisfaction.[18]
With the onset of the British Raj, the colonialisation of India by the British, there also started a Hindu renaissance in the 19th century, which profoundly changed the understanding of Hinduism in both India and the west.[19] Western orientalists searched for the "essence" of the Indian religions, discerning this in the Vedas,[20] and meanwhile creating the notion of "Hinduism" as a unified body of religious praxis[21] and the popular picture of 'mystical India'.[21][19] This idea of a Vedic essence was taken over by the Hindu reformers, together with the ideas of Universalism and Perennialism, the idea that all religions share a common mystic ground.[22]
A major proponent in the popularisation of this Universalist and Perennialist interpretation of Advaita Vedanta was Vivekananda,[23] who played a major role in the revival of Hinduism,[24] and the spread of Advaita Vedanta to the west via the Ramakrishna Mission. His interpretation of Advaita Vedanta has been called "Neo-Vedanta".[25] Vivekananda emphasised samadhi as a means to attain liberation.[26] Yet this emphasis is not to be found in the Upanishads nor with Shankara.[27] For Shankara, meditation and Nirvikalpa Samadhi are means to gain knowledge of the already existing unity of Brahman and Atman,[26] not the highest goal itself. Comans:
[Y]oga is a meditative exercise of withdrawal from the particular and identification with the universal, leading to contemplation of oneself as the most universal, namely, Consciousness. This approach is different from the classical Yoga of complete thought suppression.[26]

"I'm so happy with these invitations. The animals on it are so cute. The paper is really thick. The quality is just great. The delivery was also very quick. I liked how I could write a little note on the back of the card."
"I believe these were baby shower invites, but I used them for a 4th birthday party invite for my daughter and they turned out so cute! My daughter loved them and we got lots of compliments from our guests. The paper quality was great, as usual from Tiny Prints. We customized with a picture of my daughter on the back and a little poem about daughters."
"I came across this product while I was googling farm-themed invitations for my daughter's second birthday party. I instantly fell in love and knew I had to place an order. My order arrived so quickly and, I have to say, the invitations are so precious. I've received nothing but compliments, which is nice, but I'm most excited to have such a sweet and beautiful keepsake for my child's baby book. In this time of print-it-yourself, digital this, and electronic that, it is really nice to have a professionally created, tangible memory that will last for years."
"I fell in love with this design online, and I'm pleased to report it looks even better in person. The print quality ensures that all the hand-drawn aspects of the design show up in vivid detail. The paper is slightly textured, and I opted for rounded corners which adds a soft touch. Perfect for my daughter's petting zoo themed party."
"I ordered these invitations for my daughter's first birthday party. I was having trouble picking out a photo of my baby girl that most of the other cards required. I decided to go with this selection because it did not require a photo. I was doubting my choice until the cards arrived in the mail and I opened them. They were perfect! Absolutely beautiful!!!!"

Charlie-Milly Design is the creation of Hannah Cotterell who by using a variety of The Cleverbaggers Cotton Carriers, prints and personalises each and every one of them. Using her fun and vibrant designs to create unique gifts for her customers.
Here she shows off a selection of her designs and explains how she has developed Charlie-Milly Design.
1. Why did you decide to start your own business?
I started my own business as I have 2 children age 7 and 5 who at the time were 5 and 3 and wanted to do something to work around them. I did 3D design at Manchester Metropolitan University where I specialised in ceramics and glass blowing but also I have always loved sewing. I then made a baby bag for a friend who loved it and and I thought maybe I could sell these!! So Charlie-Milly Design started from there.
2. Where do you draw your inspiration from?
I love all fabric so just picking out different prints leads to different bags, whether its fun fabrics, florals or vintage.
3. Where can we see more of your products?
At the moment I sell on Not On The High street but hoping to have my own website this year, also any products can be ordered through email@example.com.
4. What makes Charlie-Milly design stand out from the crowd?
I think my bags stand out from the everyday canvas bags as they are bright, bold beautiful and fun!
5. What CleverBaggers products would you recommend and why?
I love the Clever Baggers mini party bags, fantastic cute little bags and perfect for my favour bags. the drawstring kit bags are perfect for my kids kit bags.5. What CleverBaggers products would you recommend and why?
6. What does handmade mean to you?
Handmade means to me something that has been made with extra care and you know you are going to get a product that means something to someone, with my bags it doesn't matter if I make 10 of the same design each one will be slightly different, that's the beauty of handmade.

having been at the convention
I would say Ted Cruz has the election in the bag if you went by the response at the convention. Nothing but Ted Cruz signs and cheers for him everywhere. Dewhurst was not warmly received. I would say that Cruz's speech was very good too.
Our local newspaper reported that "the Ron Paul supporters rudely booed Dewhurst". But that is not even true. What MANY people were yelling, not just RP supporters, was "CRUZ, CRUZ" and that was misconstrued as "BOO BOO" when Dewhurst spoke.
I voted for Addison, but now will vote for Cruz as Dr Paul has endorsed him.

RE: Products purchased from Superdry Valley Fair, Santa Clara, California
I recently purchased clothes from your store and it seemed that I just need to voice out my thoughts regarding the quality of service offered to your customers. It is a fact that products from Superdry are very popular amongst younger customers and seemed to go beyond just to wear the brand. For parents, it is a pleasure to buy a product that provides quality and durability (i.e. jeans). Superdry's denim durability is better than other brands because my son can tear through denims with low quality materials. Now, my only regret is that we bought two pants and a shirt from your store and found out that the security buttons are still attached. The security buttons are supposed to be a warning but I did not hear the beeps when I exited the store. I live more than 30 miles away from the store, ergo, it left me no choice but to drive back there to resolve the problem. On the other hand, errors can be inevitable. I am hoping that my next visit will be more pleasant and customer service is more efficient in checking out items. You know your products well more than us, and you know if items have attached security buttons. Please do not turn into another retail store who employ teens and young adults with super inflated egos. Also, keep in mind that it is hard earned money, please make it worthwhile for your consumers.

Hostel Sun & Moon
Travel Blogs from Barcelona
Beautiful Barcelona
We stayed at a hostel right off las Ramblas with people from all over Europe. We went bar hopping with the hostel the first night and got watered down drinks but made up for it at Opium the next night. This club was fancy and right on the beach where the locals were waiting selling 1 euro beer. We saw the Casa Mila, the Cathedral, the Sagrada …
Leaving Barcelona
Tonight marks the fourth night I'll be staying in Barcelona. Which wasn't supposed to happen. The train to Marseille, France was booked and anything going into Switzerland or Italy was currently unavailable. Because of this we could not leave today, so we will leave tomorrow ... For PARIS!
Little hitch in the plans but it shouldn't throw …
Weekend a Barcelone!
Bon voici quelques photos rapides de mon weekend � Barcelone.
C'�tait le festival de la Merce donc assez anim� comme fin de semaine. C'est fou, ya tout le temps quelque chose qui se passe et ces gens f�tent toute la nuit!
Vraiment une ville qui ne dors pas!
Hostel Sun and Moon was on Ferran street right off of Las Ramblas. Great location! Hostel had capacity for a bunch of people. Probably 4-5 floors with 10 rooms each, and each room had 8-10 beds. Big lockers for backpacks. Breakfast was not great.
