FRIDAY, May 13 (HealthDay News) -- Chest compressions during
chiropractic spinal manipulation result in little or no risk of
chest injury, according to new research.
The study, published in the May 13 online edition of the
Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, measured and examined the force of chest compressions ranging from typical to extremely rigorous and found all to be well under the threshold for injury.
"Results from this preliminary study showed that maximum chest compression during chiropractic manipulation of the thoracic spine is unlikely to result in injury," lead investigator Brian D. Stemper, associate professor in the department of neurosurgery at Medical College of Wisconsin, said in a journal news release.
"We performed this study to get a better understanding of the force limits of chiropractic manipulation. This information may lead to safer manipulation procedures and help to decrease the possibility of adverse patient outcomes," he added.
With the help of a "crash test" dummy, the researchers measured
the level of chest compression used during typical chiropractic
manipulation, as well as spinal manipulations in which
chiropractors applied maximal effort. An instrumented mechanical
device was also used to apply and measure the forces needed to
perform chest compression on the test dummy. These mechanical
forces were increased until they reached a point that would result
in injury. The study found that both typical and maximal force
manipulations by chiropractors resulted in little risk of
Despite the study's results, treatment should still be
customized for individual patients, the study authors said. Stemper
cautioned that "individual patient characteristics including age,
degeneration and gender" should be taken into account during
chiropractic manipulation.

The 2014 award will be presented to the winner on October 1 by Ukrainian novelist Andrei Kurkov during our Congress in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.
Congratulations to all of the shortlisted writers; and thank you to the jury, the translators, and all candidates and PEN Centres who have participated this year.
The PEN International/New Voices Award encourages new writing in the countries in which we operate, and provides a much needed space for young and unpublished writers to promote their work. The award actively encourages entries from diverse linguistic regions and communities.
Before PEN International was established in 1921 its founder, C. A. Dawson Scott, set up the Tomorrow Club as a space for aspiring writers to network with established authors; in 1928 Herman Ould, International Secretary, felt strongly that it was important for PEN to maintain focus on helping emerging writers, and so established the first 'Young PEN' chapter.
The PEN International/New Voices Award builds on these ideas, simultaneously reconnecting with our past and moving into the future. The award is open to unpublished writers aged 18-30. The young writers must be nominated by their local PEN Centre: PEN International cannot receive entries directly from candidates.
The first PEN International/New Voices Award was given on September 11 2013 to Masande Ntshanga for his short story 'Space'. Ntshanga had been nominated by South African PEN. Writer and jury member Alain Mabanckou (below) presented the prize in a ceremony at the Reykjavík International Literary Festival, during the 79th PEN International Congress in Iceland.
2013 Winner: Masande Ntshanga (South African PEN)
2013 Runners-up: José Pablo Salas (PEN Mexico), Claire Battershill (PEN Canada)
Jury members 2013: Hephzibah Anderson, Bibi Bakare-Yusuf, Carole Blake, Alain Mabanckou, Sjón, Luisa Valenzuela

A little about me...
I am a retired nurse, since 2001.I have lived in Arkansas since 1971, moving here from Washington State. I was born and raised in Iowa.. Money of course is the avenue of exchange, but I do not judge people by their material possessions. I have a very good sense of humor and laugh at myself frequently. I attempt to focus on positive thoughts. I meditate and read daily. I enjoy the simple pleasures in life. I feel we often fear the thing we want the most. My theory is chronological age is a state of mind. I enjoy my home, spending time both inside and outside. I also enjoy morning coffee on the patio. Relaxing in the hot tub, enjoying nature. I am a loving romantic affectionate caring, and warm woman. I haven't cooked meals for some time, but I am sure I could recall should the occasion arise. I feel life is what's coming ...not what it was. Now is the most interesting time of all. I am searching for opportunities not guarantees. When my ship comes in...I am making sure I am ready to unload it. I have reached the understanding that in life it's not about the way we look or what we own it's about the person we have become. I feel the greatest act of power is when I utilize the courage to use my voice and stand up for what I believe.
About the one I'm looking for...
I expect truthful, trustworthy, and passionate in a partner. I am a good listener and attempt to accept an individual for what they believe and not be judgemental, therefore I expect the same from a mate. I would prefer someone that is able to communicate their desires with ease and exactly what they expect from the one they have selected from this site. I desire that each of us feel comfortable being together under any circumstances. Have a good sense of humor. I do not tolerate racial profiling. I will walk beside my partner, not behind holding hands. I expect my companion to be romantic, compassionate, and considerate. I am not a clinging vine everyone requires their personal space. I live a peaceful life and do not feel drama is necessary. I am searching for a man to have fun with and accompany me on various outings. Someone that enjoys conversation. I feel we can learn something from anyone if we desire. There are many activities one can share with another that do not involve spending a lot of money. I enjoy quiet times sharing our activities of the day a glass of wine and snuggling if agreeable to both parties. I feel comfortable in jeans, active wear or dress wear. That being expressed I am able to dress UP OR DOWN.
I'd just like to add...
I enjoy camping very much IN A RV. Do not not fish however I wouldn't rule it out if you would have patience to teach me. Maybe I could share with you a thing or two I have learned about life.I enjoy traveling and have a passion to visit other countries and the entire USA. There are many beautiful sites in Arkansas to visit. I enjoy eating out and a occasional vodka Collins. Enjoy movies, and music of all kinds. Country is my favorite however I also like soul, jazz, rock, and dancing. My children are grown, but we have a very close relationship, along with grandkids and greats. I live in a country setting in a very modest home. I enjoy mowing the yard and flowers and going to yard sales and flee markets. I enjoy exercise however it isn't my main goal in life choosing a healthy life style is. I have never smoked. I really like to take leisurely drives and walks in the country or park with a picnic basket in hand. There are times when our lives are completely shaken up, changed and rearranged and we find ourselves in a position to explore other options. I feel we are the sum of all of our experiences making us what we are now.To me a relationship begins when we can express the fullness of who we are.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The way Shepard Glen is operated is horrific, the administrative straff and the Principal should all be terminated in replaced with folks with common sense.The secretaries are rude and incompetent just as the other parent had mentioned. The parking is atrocious, cars flying down the street and the crossing guard just stands at the driveway making sure parents do not enter to pick up their children.Parents have to find an available spot to park which many are not available or safe. Instead of the Principal who is more interested in his staff then the parents of the children who attend the school, should hire people with manners, friendly, and with safty knowledge. I like many others parent are concerned with our children's education, safety, and their well-being. The staff at Shepard Glen, mainly the Principal should come up with a better solution with parents picking up their children and not just the concern his incompetent staff.
I have two kids that started attending this year and it's been nothing but a headache. The administration is incompetent and rude. The teachers don't seem to have genuine concern for the students. My kids have been denied meals more than once due to the incompetency of the administration and/or non communication with the students. I've also noticed that my children is doing the work that they were doing in a prior grade at a different school which is making me completely nervous about they're education at Shepherd Glen that I'm ready to pull them out and home-school them myself.
I have two children at Shepherd Glen and have loved the school! They've had excellent teachers and aides. The principal has been fantasic! We've been very happy.
My child attended this school for several years before I finally pulled her out in disgust. In the lower grades her teachers were excellent but as she progressed they were terrible. Once she got to private school it quickly became apparent that she was lacking in basic skills that should have been taught in earlier grades. She has since caught up thanks to the dedicated teachers at her new school but it clearly demonstrates a huge problem in this school. Also, Hamden schools in general have a problem with bullying and Shepherd Glen is no exception. The Principal is unapproachable and does little to permanently address issues of cocern. I would never recommend this school to any parent.
This school and its staffs are very accommodating in dealing with the issues involving the education, growth and health of my son. He is in kindergarten and I am allowed to spend time in the classroom and see the environment my son is learning in. The two teachers, Mrs. Morrissey and Ms. O'neil are wonderful, patient and very focused in providing an environment for their students to thrive in. And they care very much about their students health, well-being and welfare. The overall school is very clean and modern. They provide much needed after school activities for children of all ages and even have things like movie night for the children and parents.
Shepherd Glen School is a caring community of learners and educators. It is a place where expectations are high for all students and respect and tolerance are daily lessons. The multiculturally diverse population and unique school structure work together toward clearly defined goals. The teachers share a common vision and strive to meet the needs of all students. I am proud to be a member of the Shepherd Glen community.

How Future Power Grids Will Grow Smarter
VANCOUVER — Today's electricity supply mostly flows through huge, centralized power grids from power plants to homes and businesses. Tomorrow's world, however, will likely require smarter grids that can handle swarms of plugged-in electric cars, juggle renewable energy sources with fossil fuel plants and even switch off idle electronic gadgets inside people's homes.
Power grids could also shrink in size compared to the centralized grids first built by U.S. inventor Thomas Edison in New York City more than a century ago. Such "microgrids" could intelligently meet the energy demands of a city or region with a mix of local renewable energy and some fossil fuels such as natural gas for backup, according to energy experts at the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting in Vancouver on Feb. 19.
"It leads you into a system that is essentially distributed generation with a bunch of microgrids," said John MacDonald, chairman and CEO of Day4 Energy Inc. "Once we get there, it's the exact opposite of what we have today, which is a big, centralized grid."
The Canadian province of British Columbia (Vancouver included) already gets 90 percent of its energy from hydroelectric power, said Kip Morison, chief technology officer at the BC Hydro electric utility company. His company has begun studying how smart grids can help deal with future energy demands — an especially strong concern if more local drivers turn to electric cars.
"We have the highest ratio of gasoline prices to electricity prices — high gas prices and very low electricity prices — in all of North America," Morison explained. "So there's a very compelling reason for people here to buy an electric vehicle."
Developing countries such as India could have a "huge opportunity" from not having to adapt older "legacy" grids to smarter, smaller grids, said Geza Joos, an electrical and computer engineer at McGill University in Montreal. That's because starting from scratch allows countries to build the "smart" technologies right into the power stations and transmission lines.
But it also assumes countries are willing to take the time and thoughtfulness to build up smart, smaller grids for local regions, said Reza Iravani, an electrical and computer engineer at the University of Toronto. He added that the demand for energy almost always grows faster than the supply in developing countries.
"If there are developing economies that are primarily putting their focus and competitive advantage on cheap labor and cheap energy, they may not have the same kind of opportunity or resolve to move towards a different level of energy distribution," said Hassan Farhangi, an electrical engineer at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Canada.
That could easily describe China — a country that is building the world's largest transmission network to connect hundreds of coal power plants feeding its energy-hungry population. Such a centralized system probably won't evolve into microgrids for a very long time.
"I have no doubt there are a lot of smarts there [in their grid]," Morison said. "Whether it'll be clean and distributed like we're talking about in this forum, I think that's a ways off."

Fact Sheet Women make up a majority of the U.S. population, but they lag substantially behind men when it comes to their representation in leadership positions.
Report There is a silver lining to exclusion: Women, long outsiders, have had no choice but to think, act, and lead in out-of-the-box ways. That is why they are now poised to change our institutions for the better.

The hardest part is simply not having him around anymore. I spent a lot of time with Chris, perhaps more than with any of my other kids. I really liked his company even though he frustrated us so often.
|Walt McCandless (Chris' father) - Into The Wild
favourite movies of all time → into the wild (2007)
"Two years he walks the earth. No phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause "the West is the best." And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure. The climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual pilgrimage. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the Great White North. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild. - Alexander Supertramp May 1992"

Utah's release of a midweek depth chart Wednesday sparked some wild theories about the unusual move.
Let's set the record straight: It's not a motivational tactic, and it's not because Kyle Whittingham loves chaos. It's because Assistant Athletics Director Liz Abel sends her weekly release out on Monday mornings and, at that time, offensive coordinator Dave Christensen was still analyzing the tape from last week's practice.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Christensen's most drastic moves come on the offensive line and at receiver.
Junior Jeremiah Poutasi switches from left guard to left tackle, where he started as a freshman, and redshirt freshman Salesi Uhatafe is now listed as starter at right guard.
Starting now at receiver are sophomores Delshawn McClellon and Dominique Hatfield, who replace senior Geoffrey Norwood and junior Kenneth Scott, respectively. The move for Scott may reflect that he isn't yet 100 percent and is currently held out of 11 vs. 11 work.
Senior Andre Lewis was dropped from the depth chart and is out for spring with an unspecified injury that is not expected to require surgery. Lewis was the recipient of a hard, low tackle from senior cornerback Wykie Freeman in Friday's scrimmage and was in obvious pain before eventually standing up and walking off on his own power.
Other notes from the depth chart:
• Redshirt freshman quarterback Conner Manning is now listed as the No. 2 quarterback, ahead of junior Adam Schulz. Worth noting is that Whittingham said neither backup distinguished himself particularly in Friday's scrimmage and that redshirt freshman Brandon Cox might have been better than both.
• There is no longer an "OR" between transfer junior running back Devontae Booker and redshirt freshman Troy McCormick, suggesting that Booker has jumped into the lead. Whittingham said after practice Tuesday that Booker reminds him somewhat of transfer John White in that he has played fairly well in spring but has the potential to make a drastic leap forward in fall.
• McClellon wasn't listed on the depth chart at all prior to Wednesday. Nor was former quarterback Micah Thomas, a sophomore who is now listed as backup to junior Dres Anderson.
• Redshirt freshman Harrison Handley replaces junior Evan Moeai as the third tight end.
• And worth bearing in mind is Whittingham's advice Tuesday: "Don't ever believe depth charts."

What does it take to get the proper waterbed mattress replacement for your waterbed? Waterbed owners know the wonderful benefits of sleeping on this type of mattress, so they typically want to replace one that has lived out its usefulness with another waterbed mattress.
Soft side waterbed mattresses are not manufactured in a standard size, so it's vital that you take measurements of your waterbed and the mattress in order to properly fit it into your soft side bed.
Take measurements of the outside of the bed so you know if you have a twin, double, queen, or king size
Measure the depth of your soft side - from the bottom of the foam to the top rail
Measure the length of the inside of the mattress at the top of the foam rail
Note the type of side rails - slanted or straight
If slanted - measure both the length and width of inside the mattress at the bottom of the foam rail
If straight - measure depth straight up and down of the inside foam rail
This is also a good time to check your liner for rips, tears, or leaks. You could also add lumbar support at this time too. The lumbar support is one to three layers of padding that's inserted in between the shoulders and hips, providing support for the heaviest part of your body.
What types of soft side mattress replacements are available?
Full wave - feels like a traditional waterbed mattress
Semi-wave and waveless - you can get this type of mattress with 2 layers, 4 layers, or 6 layers of fiber in addition to the water-filled layer. The more layers of fiber means you'll have less wave motion.
Soft side waterbeds are designed with a single bladder or double bladder. The single bladder is great if you and your spouse like the same mattress firmness. The double bladder comes in handy if the two of you prefer different firmness levels.
Should you replace your heater? A little troubleshooting will help you decide whether or not your heater should be replaced. Make sure it's plugged in and that the sensor isn't too close to the heating pad. Make sure the temperature is set to your preference correctly. If the bed still feels cold two or three days after re-filling your bed, then you may need a new heater. Note: dual bladder beds will require two heaters whereas a single bladder bed requires only one heater.
Measure your hard side mattress to make sure you get the right size replacement mattress.
Twin waterbed - 84" x 39"
Single waterbed - 84" x 48"
Double waterbed - 84" x 54"
Queen waterbed - 84" x 60"
California King waterbed - 84" x 72"
Round waterbed - 7-foot or 8-foot
Octagon waterbed - 7-foot or 8-foot
What types of hard side waterbed mattress replacements are available?
Free flow - gives you the feeling of sleeping on a traditional waterbed
Semi-waveless and waveless - get mattresses with 1 to 5 layers of fiber added into the mattress so you'll feel less and less wave motion while sleeping
Ultra waveless - you can get these mattresses with or without lumbar support. They feature 4", 6", 8", or 10" fiber layers to give you a completely waveless mattress.
You can get a single waterbed mattress or a dual waterbed mattress to fit a hard side waterbed. The dual is nice for two people who prefer sleeping on different firmness levels.
Heaters for hard side waterbeds require at least 8 inches of water in order to work properly. One has a dial-operated temperature setting and the other has a digital setting. Either one will work well with a hard side waterbed.
A quilted mattress cover encasing your waterbed mattress will help retain heat, help control moisture, puncture-proofs the mattress, provides a barrier between body oils and the waterbed mattress and provides another plush layer on your mattress that will feel just like a traditional mattress cover.
Some waterbed mattress covers feature a pillow top layer too! All of them are lined with a safety liner to control moisture. These can be used on both hard side and soft side waterbed mattresses.
Another option available to waterbed owners is to replace their waterbed mattress with an airbed mattress. Select Comfort offers a Sleep Number waterbed mattress replacement that will fit right into your existing frame or on top of your existing foundation. The one drawback is that they only offer two sizes: Super Queen with dimensions of 60" x 84" and a Super King with dimensions of 72" x 84". The price for the queen is around $1,899 and the king size price is $2,200.
Waterbeds can develop strange odors if you don't maintain your waterbed properly. Here are some tips for keeping odors at bay.
Always add conditioner to the waterbed at the same time you're filling the mattress.
Use something other than a garden hose to fill your mattress or make sure you sanitize the end of the hose thoroughly before using it to fill your mattress.
Bacteria and mineral content is very high in some areas of the country, so the professionals recommend that you use two bottles of conditioner when you're first filling up the mattress and then follow up every 4 to 5 months by adding one bottle of conditioner.
Check your liner periodically for leaks - a leak can cause mold or bacteria growth.
It's a good idea to periodically wipe down the waterbed mattress with a baking soda and water solution.
Purchase your conditioner from a waterbed store or online retailer - not a discount store. They're very different products.
Some of the drawbacks of waterbeds include: weight, difficulty transporting or moving, energy consumption due to heaters, finding the right sheets to fit, bacteria build-up inside the waterbed mattress, potential leaks that could damage your floor or carpet, and condensation build-up on the mattress.

What's the easiest way to whack the windshield off a Corvette? Hold your breath (to keep glass dust out of your lungs), add eye protection, slice the bottom of the glass with a reciprocating saw (to lessen the amount of tiny glass shrapnel that would otherwise litter the interior and fall onto the track), and then let Toyota Speedway safety crewmember John Badham use the Jaws of Life on the A-pillars. It cut through the sheetmetal like a hot knife through butter. In case you're wondering, the windshield weighed 38 pounds.

Wow, defending Hup by claiming his incredibly stupid and impolitic comment is "literally true'? It may be 'literally true' that a prostitute is merely engaging in paid interpersonal relationship surrogacy, but it doesn't mean he or she isn't having sex for money. Hup is 'literally' doing his best to siphon off as much money as possible from public instruction into the pockets of his cronies and sponsors in the private for-profit education industry. Hup has 'literally' done all he can to pander to the right-wing fundamentalist home school crowd and anti-government ranters. Only a party as irrationally devoted to undermining the very idea of government as today's GOP would tolerate a public servant publicly stating his obvious hostility to and distain for the very institutions he is supposed to be overseeing.

This is, indeed, an interesting, if not in any way dispositive, development. It may result in nothing much happening, as the court merely held that the Baker tests are not inextricable from this claim at this time; ultimately the political question doctrine may still prove fatal to this case., Or this case could open a new round of "substantive due process"-style activism around State policies enacted by initiative, which is clearly the axe you are grinding. Or this case could simply confirm the inherently Republican nature of direct majoritarian democratic policy-making. Really, it is far too soon to tell. Your conclusion that this denial of a motion to dismiss claims is the "beginning of the end of TABOR... and of Arizona's Prop 105" is hyperbolic and unfounded. Your assertion that the US constitution is on your side, however, is totally fatuous. The fact is that nobody really has much idea what the Guarantee Clause actually obligates any state to do, or to abstain from, especially as regards the power of citizens to engage in direct democracy. I'm sure that everyone wishes the US Constitution to be on their side in a argument, and certainly everyone will claim it is so; but that hardly makes it so. Your clear disfavor for what might be viewed as "citizen overreach" in restricting the actions of State legislatures may have some merits, but the US Constitution is quite moot on the topic.
The United States Constitution guarantees that State's operate under a Republican form of Government. This section called the "Guarantee Clause" is found in Article 4 Section 4 of the US Constitution and serves to guarantee that states don't become monarchies--or direct democracies. I've argue...

|60-km from Bhubaneswar, Orissa
|Reigning Deity:

|Main Attractions:
|Lord Jagannatha Temple, Puri Beach & Gundicha Mandir
|One of the four holiest points of pilgrimage for Hindus

Puri Tourism :
Puri is the holiest place in Orissa and one of the biggest pilgrimage centres in India situated on the shoreline of the Bay of Bengal. Here, the city's activities generally revolve around the Jagannath Temple where devotees visit from far and near. The town is divided into two – the old town the main residential area, including the main shops and huge market area. Most nights, the beaches host colorful markets and the city is abuzz with life.
Puri is washed by the sea, and embraced by causarina – fringed beaches. It is said that one obtains 'moksha' from the cycle of birth and rebirth, if one stays here for three days and nights. Puri is the hallowed seat of Lord Jagannath (Lord of the Universe), Subhadra and Balabhadra. One of the four holy dhams of Hinduism, Puri is possibly one of the very few religious sites which combines the outdoor pleasures of sea and divine beaches with the religious sentiments of 'darshan'.
A place, known by many names over the centuries – Nilgiri, Niladri, Nilachal, Purushottam, Sankhakshetra, Srikshetra, Jagannath Dham, Jagannath Puri – Puri is dominated by two great forces, one created by God, and the other by man.
Puri Orissa has the Bay of Bengal and the rice-growing alluvial plain on its east, Khurda district on its west, Sambalpur on its south and the state capital Bhubaneshwar on its northern side. The forest area lying to the west of Puri provides bamboo and sal. The district of Puri encompasses most of the Chilka Lake, Asia's largest freshwater lake. Bhubaneshwar is also located in Puri district.
The holy city of Puri is located 60-km from Bhubaneswar on the coast of the Bay of Bengal. It is one of the four holy dhamas of India – Puri, Dwarka, Rameswaram and Badrinath Sri Ramanuja visited Puri between 1107 and 1117 century AD and stayed for some time. Vishnu Swami visited Puri in the second half of the 12th century and established a 'Matha' near 'Markandeswar' Tank, called "Vishnuswami Matha". Nimbarka Acharya also made a pilgrimage to Puri, and Srila Prabhupada visited in January 1977. The present temple structure was built in the 12th century by the 'Ganga' King 'Choda Ganga Deva', replacing an earlier structure, which probably dated to the 10th century.
Until recently, almost the entire temple was covered in white plaster, so much so that European sailors in previous centuries used it as a navigation point, referring to it as the "White Pagoda"
What To See in Puri
- Puri Jagannath Temple
The temple of Lord Jagannath ('Lord of the Universe') at Puri is one of the most sacred pilgrimage spots in India, one of the four abodes (dhamas) of the divine that lie on the four directions of the compass. The present temple structure was built in the twelfth century by the Ganga king, Chodagangadeva, replacing an earlier structure which probably dated to the tenth century.
Long before one reaches Puri, the 214 feet (65 meters) spire of the temple can be seen towering over the countryside. This visual dominance is symbolic of the influence which the temple commands over almost every aspect of life in Puri. The huge temple compound, each side of which measures 650 feet (some 200 meters), is surmounted with a 20 foot (6 meters) wall. Within the compound is a city, or, more accurately, a universe unto itself. With 6000 direct temple servitors, a temple kitchen which feeds 10,000 people daily (and some 25,000 on festival days), and a central deity who has become the focus of religious life throughout Orissa, the Jagannath temple is truly an institution unique in the world.
- Gundicha Mandir (Temple)
This temple is located at the end of Grad road (the main road) about 3-km northeast of the Jagannatha temple . At the time of the 'Ratha-Yatra' festival , Lord Jagannatha goes to the Gundicha temple and stays there for one week. After one week He returns to His original temple. It is said that the wife of 'Indradyumna', the king who originally established the temple of Jagannatha, was known as "Gundicha". The cleansing of the Gundicha temple takes place the day before the Ratha-Yatra festival as mentioned in "Chaitanya-Caritamrita".
Non-Hindus can walk within the walls and see the beautiful garden, but they are not allowed in the temple building.
- Satyabadi (Sakshigopal)
The shrine of Lord Sakshigopal is only 20 kms away from Puri. the sacred feet of Shri Radha can however be only seen on 'Anala nawami' day.
- Rath Yatra
Symbolically, the Rath Yatra (chariot festival) is a journey to light from the dark and begins on the second day of the bright fortnight in the month of Asad (June-July). It commemorates the journey of Krishna from Gokul to Mtahura. This festival is celebrated at Puri with great pomp and ceremony. In this religious journey, Jagannath, Subhadra and Balbhadra are taken out in procession in three raths (chariots). The main rath is 43 ft high, 33 ft wide and has 16 wheels. The ropes of the chariots are pulled by millions of devotees.
- Nava Kalebara
Held once in every 12 to 19 years according to lunar calander, on this religious ritual, the idols change their external forms. New idols are carved out of specially sanctified trees.
Orissa is a land of innumerable fairs and festivals celebrated round the year but the most spectacular of them is the Rath Yatra, hitherto known as the Car Festival to western world.
- Celebration
The three wooden deities of lord 'Jagannatha', 'Balbhadra' & 'Devi Subhadra' with 'Sudarshan' are brought out of the main temple and taken to Gundicha temple for a week's visit in three beautifully decorated chariots.On day of Puri rath Yatra festival Puri recepies are made.
- Specialty
From the many specialties of the festival the most unique one is that, this is the only occasion to see, even embrace the deities irrespective of caste, colour and creed outside the Temple.
- Legend
After performing all the necessary prostrations, he carried the lump of wood to the temple and, following instructions from 'Brahma', called the court carpenter 'Vishvakarma' to carve out the image. Vishvakarma agreed to perform the task on condition that no one so much as set eyes on the deity until it was completed. The king, however, unable to contain his excitement, peeped through a crack in the door of the carpenter's workshop during the night to see how the job was progressing. Vishvakarma spotted him, downed tools just as he had promised and cast a spell on the deity so that no one else could finish it.
- Sequence in the Rath Yatra
Divine Procession (Pahandi Bije): The deities are brought out of the temple to the chariots by rhythmic movement called "Pahandi" in a royal procession to the accompaniment of the beat of the 'cymbals' and drums and chanting of prayers by devotees.
Sweeping of the Chariots (Chhera Pahanra): After the deities are installed on their respective Chariots, the traditional King of Puri sweeps the Chariots with a golden broom, which is known as "Chhera Pahanra".
Pulling of Chariots (Rath Tana): The most exciting part of the Rath Yatra is the pulling of Chariots by thousands of devotees to the Gundicha Temple, which is about 3-kms away from the starting point of the 'yatra'. Devotees stay in the temple for a week.
Return Journey (Bahuda Yatra): On 'Ashadha Sukla Dasami', the 10th day of the bright fortnight of Ashadha (June-July), return journey or 'Bahuda Yatra' of the deities commences in the same manner from Gundicha temple to the main temple like Rath Yatra.
Suna Besha: Before going in their original abode, the deities are dressed in Golden attire on the Chariots the next day.
- Nabakalebar
When two months of Ashadha fall in one year, Rath Yatra is observed as the festival of 'Nabakalebar' the old deities are buried within the temple premises ('Koilibaikuntha') and are replaced by new deities, carved out of Margosa trees for which there are set procedures. Double Ashadha occurs at intervals of 8 to 19 years. As history records, Nabakalebar was held in 1996, 1977, 1969, 1950 and 1931 during this century.

Nouveau On Oibaf PPA Is Back To Running Well
Published on 27 August 2014 09:30 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
3 Comments
For those following my Linux driver tribulations with constantly trying out and benchmarking the latest Git code for the Intel, Radeon, and NVIDIA/Nouveau drivers, the Nouveau screen corruption problem noted earlier this week has been resolved.
Earlier this week I wrote and showed
the messy Nouveau situation with Mesa 10.3 + Linux 3.17 Git
-- window bars were corrupted and rendering oddly along with other on-screen problems. Fortunately, through
the forum comments
it was solved.
Upstream Nouveau was unaware of this issue that was affecting my entire assortment of NVIDIA GeForce hardware so it was then quickly assumed to be an issue with the
Oibaf PPA
that constantly is packaging the latest open-source Linux GPU drivers. On top of mainline Mesa Git, recently there's been the
the Gallium3D Direct3D 9 patches
(Gallium-Nine). While none of my testing was relying upon the Gallium-Nine D3D9 support, it was wreaking havoc on the system anyhow.
As of earlier today some patches were backed out of the Oibaf PPA and since getting back closer to Mesa mainline the Nouveau problems are a matter of the past. With that said, now I'm in the process of running some Nouveau Steam/Source Engine Linux gaming tests similar to today's
20-Way Radeon Comparison With Open-Source Graphics For Steam On Linux Gaming
On Linux 3.17 and Mesa 10.4-devel I was also planning to run some open-source NVIDIA driver tests of the
GeForce GTX 750 "Maxwell"
graphics cards given
their recent, reverse-engineered support
, but as my latest problem, upon booting up the GTX 750 / GTX 750 Ti I am now greeted by no display output with the Nouveau DRM driver on Linux 3.17 Git.
