Bhagwat Gita Hindi
Faced with a fratricidal war, a despondent Arjuna turns to his charioteer Krishna for counsel on the battlefield. Krishna, through the course of the Gita, imparts to Arjuna wisdom, the path to devotion, and the doctrine of selfless action. The Gita upholds the essence and the philosophical tradition of the Upanishads. However, unlike the rigorous monism of the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita also integrates dualism and theism.
Numerous commentaries have been written on the Bhagavad Gita with widely differing views on the essentials, beginning with Adi Sankara's commentary on the Gita in the eighth century CE. Commentators see the setting of the Gita in a battlefield as an allegory for the ethical and moral struggles of the human life. The Bhagavad Gita's call for selfless action inspired many leaders of the Indian independence movement including Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, who referred to the Gita as his "spiritual dictionary".

We are happy to present the Bhagvad Gita as it is in the Audio files
The Bhagavad Gita is often regarded as the greatest of all the "Hindu Upanishads".
The epic Mahabharata is traditionally ascribed to the Sage Ved Vyasa; the Bhagavad Gita, being a part of the Mahabharata, is also ascribed to him.
Date of composition
Theories on the date of composition of the Gita vary considerably. Scholars accept dates from fifth century to second century BCE as the probable range. Professor Jeaneane Fowler, in her commentary on the Gita, considers second century BCE to be the likely date of composition. Kashi Nath Upadhyaya, a Gita scholar, on the basis of the estimated dates of Mahabharata, Brahma sutras, and other independent sources, concludes that the Bhagavad Gita was composed between fifth and fourth centuries BCE.

Bhagavad-Gita As it is
In this application you will be presented transcendental knowledge of the most profound spiritual nature as revealed in the Bhagavad Gita. It is the divine discourse spoken by the Supreme Lord Krishna Himself and is the most popular and well known of all the sacred scriptures from ancient India. Always being referred as a true source of spiritual knowledge it reveals the purpose and goal of human existence.
In a very clear and wonderful way the Supreme Lord Krishna describes the science of self-realization and the exact process by which a human being can establish their eternal relationship with God. In terms of pure, spiritual knowledge the Bhagavad Gita is incomparable. Its intrinsic beauty is that its knowledge applies to all human beings and does not postulate any sectarian ideology or secular view. It is approachable from the sanctified realms of all religions and is glorified as the epitome of all spiritual teachings. This is because proficiency in the Bhagavad Gita reveals the eternal principles which are fundamental and essential for spiritual life from all perspectives and allows one to perfectly understand the esoteric truths hidden within all religious scriptures. The primary purpose of the Bhagavad Gita is to illuminate for all of humanity the realization of the true nature of divinity; for the highest spiritual conception and the greatest material perfection is to attain love of God!

Bhagavad Gita In Gujarati
The message of Gita was not delivered on banks of Ganges, nor inside caves, monasteries or at the outset of any hermit's dwelling place but was conferred on the battlefield filled with belligerent armies, awaiting fierce encounter. When Arjuna saw revered teachers, beloved friends and close relatives on his enemy side, he was overtaken by grief and despair. As a result he chose to lay down his arms and sought counsel from his charioteer and friend, Krishna. In his unique and mesmerizing style, Krishna answered Arjun's array of questions covering sin, slander and siblings to death, duty, desire, duality and divinity. Arjuna was convinced that death on the battlefield was that merely of physical frame and not of the inner immortal soul. The conversation between Krishna and Arjuna threw light on many important aspects of Hinduism such as life and death, karma, devotion, jnana, yoga, supreme reality and duality.
The only available Gujarati translation of BhagavadGita, this great poem is made available on this application for the first time. It is a humble attempt made by webmaster to present it in this way to facilitate easy reference. One would derive great pleasure by just reading the Gujarati version as it keep intact the storyline. The tune and meters of poetry are also not exactly replicated in Gujarati yet, in their own they are pretty consistent.

These include ad performance and viewability metrics as well as quality of service metrics used to gauge the overall health of video streams. These data types will be added to Ooyala IQ over the course of the year to further extend its capabilities. Ooyala IQ will be available to select customers within the next 30 days, and will be showcased at next week's National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) exhibition in Las Vegas (Exhibit #SV1000). Major broadcasters and publishers around the world participating in the beta program for Ooyala IQ include Sky Sports, Media Prima, Fairfax Media, Telegraph Media Group, Telstra, Vox Media, Complex Media, Dell, Southern Cross Austereo and many more.

6 de febrero de 2013 | Entrevistas | Cumbre de los Pueblos Santiago de Chile | Anti-neoliberalismo | Bosques y biodiversidad | Industrias extractivas
Descargar: MP3 (1.5 MB)
After more than 20 years of neoliberal policies in Chile, backed in the over-exploitation of natural resources and of policies that have inhibited democracy and social participation, "we have a social awakening of communities who are facing the overwhelming machine of destruction of territories", said Chilean activist Lucio Cuenca, of the Latin American Environmental Conflicts Observatory (OLCA).
Cuenca was interviewed by Danilo Urrea, one of Real World Radio's correspondents during the Summit of the Peoples in Santiago de Chile, that came to an end on January 27 and took place in parallel to the European Union - Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) Summit. The activist said that currently, in the framework of the relationships between EU countries with Latin American countries and in international summits such as the official summit that just took place in the Chilean capital, there are agreements to deepen the extraction and exploitation of common goods to finance the European crisis and maintain the living standards of industrialized countries. "For instance the case of Germany, which in the past years has entered areas of extractivism where it wasn't present before. (...) Today, it is expanding towards an extractivist economy in our territories in a direct way", said Cuenca.
The member of OLCA said this to Real World RAdio while the international media covered the signing of an agreement in Chile between Germany's Chancellor, Angela Merkel, and Chilean President Sebastián Piñera, to facilitate the participation of Germany in mining exploitation in Chile. "This comes with a cooperation program that especifically focuses on mining and incorporates as one of its new pillars towards developing countries the work with German transnational companies", said the activist. The idea is to "protect those investments, disguising them as cooperation
policies", he added.
As in the past years, corporate social responsibility has become one of the strategies of large transnational corporations and governments that have inhibited and captured the actions of communities in defense of their territories. According to Cuenca, this is another of the critiques to be deepened with the new German cooperation policy. The cooperation program involves several countries of the Andean area, such as Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia and will be implemented in Chile, from where the extractive mining model is promoted. To Cuenca, these strategies "are the new sides of the expansion of the European economy into our countries, that seek to expand markets and include natural resources, common goods, that hadn't been commodified before". "This model is looking to expand that limits", he added.
In the interview with Real World Radio, Cuenca assessed the Summit of the Peoples in a positive way. He said that what happened with police repression at the end of the peaceful mobilization of January 25 in Santiago, as part of the activities that day of the Summit is a clear example of the current situation of Chile. "On the one side, a schizophrenia where the aim is to expand the model and the answer is to criminalize, to increase repression and on the other side we have communities that are awakening after a long neoliberal sleep. We hope this can be seen in the changes we need to achieve in the future", he concluded.

El Premio Goldman 2015 otorgado a la luchadora hondureña Berta Cáceres significó la visibilidad de la lucha social en ese país, a seis años del Golpe de Estado y llegó en un momento de movilización popular anticorrupción que es común a otros países del istmo, como es el caso de Guatemala.
Ya pasaron tres años de la Masacre de Curuguaty, en Paraguay, en la que 11 campesinos y seis policías fueron asesinados. Recordamos la tragedia que sigue esperando por justicia y que dio la excusa perfecta para el golpe de Estado que derrocó al gobierno de Fernando Lugo.

Does the API allow you to get that many tweets? Is it possible to accomplish this without using the streaming (real-time) API?

Senior logistics analyst positions are common in a wide variety of industries, typically within companies that provide services or products in a highly competitive environment. These positions usually require a minimum of a bachelor's degree in a business or engineering field, or another relevant field. Many positions also require a project management professional (PMP) certification, while some specialized fields may have other requirements. Work experience requirements depend on the specific position, but as a senior title, these openings often require 10 or more years of experience in a similar position.Read More...
Basic duties performed by senior logistics analysts revolve around collecting data on business operations related to logistics. This includes research for the development and evaluation of existing systems, procedures, and models. Using technology such as modeling, the employee generates reports and feedback about current practices and how to optimize them. This process includes creating documentation and analytics reports to provide management with details necessary to make decisions. Some positions may also require specialized tasks for industry-specific analysis as well.
Individuals in this position generally work independently, but they must communicate and collaborate with other departments and managers on a regular basis. The work environment is typically an indoor office setting, but some teleconferencing and travel to remote locations may be necessary.
Senior Logistics Analysts typically list a handful of skills they use on the job. Those who have experience with Logistics Support Analysis, Project Management, and Data Analysis can expect to be compensated well for these skills. Data Analysis and Logistics Support Analysis are also commonly seen together.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Senior Logistics Analysts with more experience do not necessarily bring home bigger paychecks. In fact, experience in this field tends to impact compensation minimally. Folks who are navigating the first five years of their careers have a median salary of approximately $60K in this position. Those who have been around for five to 10 years don't get much more, though; the median salary in that group is $67K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $74K in this role. Veterans who have worked for more than two decades do tend to make the most in the end; the median pay for this group is $86K.

I think that warnings are part of the problem, though. What goes into determining when a player recieves a warning vs. a penalty? It's just one more way for the refs to insert their own personalities into the game. And as I said, the linesmen would stop the fights. Refs rarely get in the middle of altercations.
Refs have a ridicuously hard job, in that they have to call all these penalties in an instant, without the benifit of replays.
I know. I'm advocating that we change that.
Dives are going to happen...players will always push the limits of what happens.
What I'd like to see is the league possibly handing out suspensions for blatant dives, or have refs be able to penalize a guy for diving w/o penalizing the other player. That would make a guy think twice about diving.
And I won't even start on the one ref thing.
Why linesmen can't call blatant behind-the-play penalties I don't know.
I'd like to see more proactive league office, too. League disciplanarians could do wonders for the game if they actually applied rules about suspensions consistently and effectively, IMO.
I also like the idea about giving linesmen powers to call any blatant penalties they see.

The Homer Hockey Association Bantams and their families are hosting the Annual Alaska State Hockey Association's Bantam Tier III State Championship at the Kevin Bell Arena on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Thirty-nine Homer skiers made the trip north to participate in the Tour of Anchorage on Sunday. Due to a lack of snow, the race was shortened from its normal 50-, 40- and 25-kilomter distances to 26K and 19K. That will be the only and last community ski race of the season as the Homer Marathon recently was canceled.
Last-minute snowfalls made for good skiing for the Kachemak Nordic Ski Club's Wine and Cheese and Wooden Ski Tour on Sunday.
"We were really sweating bullets," said organizer Kevin Walker. "Thursday it was glare ice. Then there was an inch (of snow) here, an inch there, three inches Saturday morning, three more inches Sunday morning, so it turned out to be really good conditions."
The annual event serves as a fundraiser for the club, usually bringing in around $2,000 and attracting 75-100 skiers. This year, the crowd was a bit smaller.
Local snowshoers celebrated the annual Special Olympics Winter Local Competition on Saturday. Among those participating were, front row from left, Brent Escolta and Krissy Norton, and back from from left, Nick Kvasnikoff, Coach Nalani Schroeder and Jeremey Day enjoy some fresh snow. Events included 25-, 50-, 100-, 200-, 800- and 1600-meter races.
The Homer Mariner Nordic ski team took one step closer to state competition at the Region III Nordic Ski Championships on the Tsalteshi Trails in Soldotna last week. The Feb. 14-15 event included skiers from Colony, Grace, Homer, Kenai, Palmer, Skyview, Soldotna and Wasilla.
Last Saturday, under clear blue skies with not a patch of snow in sight and temperatures in the mid-40s, the Mariner ski team was outside, once again, making the best of it. Instead of calling off the team's scheduled "ski-athon" event and adding to a long list of disappointing cancellations this season, coaches Alison O'Hara and Alan Parks morphed the fundraiser into a competition as unique as this winter's weather.
The large crowd gathered in the Homer High School gym on Dec. 30was loud with school spirit and holiday cheer as they watched the Mariners face off against Kenai in the first home basketball games of the season. Both teams fought hard against the Kardinals, but despite the encouragement, failed to close out 2014 with a win.

Search through a list of basketball fouls and its doubtful you'll find "hugging." However, with a confused look, a smile and a shrug of his shoulders, that was the best description referee Mike Etzwiler could give for what was happening in the Warrior Dome as Nikolaevsk varsity teams played the alumni on Friday.
Sixteen masters swimmers competed in the first annual Kachemak Swim Club Masters Sextathlon at Kate Kuhns Aquatic Center, Dec. 20. Events contested were the 100 free, 50 fly, 50 back, 50 breast, 50 free and 100 IM.
Overall winners were determined by the lowest cumulative time for all six events.
Four Mariner mat men travelled to Reno for the 20th anniversary of the Reno Tournament of Champions, titled "The Toughest Tournament in America."
The top three placers in each weight class earn All-American status.

DEFINITION of 'Forwardation'
- A term used in pricing futures contracts. Forwardation is a standard scenario in futures trading whereby a future price of the underlying commodity would be more than the expected spot (or immediate delivery) price. The increase in price can be justified or predicted based on additional costs for hard or soft commodities such as delivery, insurance, storage, etc.
- Forwardation can be more difficult to justify and/or calculate with financial instrument futures.
- Also referred to as "contango."
- Opposite of backwardation.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Forwardation'
Over time the market will continually receive new information which it will use to adjust the future and expected future spot price - the most rational future price - of a futures contract. More information will typically have the effect of depressing, or lowering, the futures price. A market in forwardation takes these variables into account to determine the futures price; however, the actual spot price will often deviate from the expected price.

Washington State Investment Board Summary Transcript KIRO News 7 interview Joe Dear regarding Washington Mutual 09-26-08 KIRO: How much did the WaMu failure hurt your overall portfolio? JD: We're talking less than two tenths of one percent of the overall portfolio. I don't want to minimize losses, but I assure people, particularly our beneficiaries, that their pension is secure. And I want to tell the taxpayers of the state of Washington they are in no danger of having to bail out Washington state's pension system. Again, we have $78 billion of assets under management. We did take some losses of a highly diversified portfolio and we're very confident that even as things remain difficult, we will weather this storm. KIRO: The last time you and I spoke, you told us that "Washington Mutual is teetering on the brink". Well, it's apparently not anymore, what do you think about what's taken place? JD: Washington Mutual was the next shoe to drop in this financial crisis. I'm unhappy to report that, as with Lehman Brothers, the WSIB did have an investment in WaMu, so we've booked another loss. In this case it's $47 million which includes equity investment in the stock market and a private equity investment. But as before, this is a large portfolio, so the loss, while painful, is small in relation to the $78 billion of assets we have under management. KIRO: Obviously, this is a hometown company and people not only have investments in Washington Mutual, but pacific pride, and local jobs, and a lot of things tied in with WaMu. Do you think ultimately what we saw take place with the seizure and the sale, is it going to be a good thing in the long run? Was it necessary? KIRO: It's a consequence of a fundamental challenge to our entire financial system. As we spoke last week; this is not over, we're not done with this. I can't speculate what the impact of WaMu's loss in the community, except it's not good, and we feel bad for all the people that worked there. The depositors' are protected. The financial losers in this are the equity investors and the investors in WaMu's securities, and that's where our loss came. But, you know, our loss was an investment made last spring, which I was really proud of at the time because we thought we were stepping in to help bolster the institution and to keep it local. This is what I hoped would be a good turnaround story. Alas, $41 million later, it's a much different and sadder outcome. KIRO: What about the economic impact to the community from where you stand? JD: It doesn't help, but I think it's important to recognize the national and international implications of this. It's not just about WaMu, it's not just about Washington state, or Washington pensions. The financial system itself is under great stress and there is a huge loss of confidence. The government, Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve, are trying to come up with a rescue package to arrest the decline in values and that's what has to be solved or our local story won't matter because we'll be a part of a much larger, much more dramatic, and much worse general outcome. Page 1 of 3 Washington State Investment Board KIRO: What do you think about the efforts to craft a bailout? JD: I think it's important to understand that the concern expressed by the President and Congress is not made up, this is for real. I understand the feeling that "I don't want to bailout Wall Street, why should we help those people, they got us into this mess?" But I also understand that our entire economy depends on the smooth flow of finance and the credit markets are on the verge of seizing up and we do not want to experience what will happen if that comes to pass. So, this is very real; and, steps have to be taken on arresting the decline in asset values. Then we should think about how we reform the regulatory system to prevent this from happening again. It's like you don't want to redecorate your house in the middle of a hurricane. We need to take care of the emergency and then have a considered approach to the reforms which we absolutely require. KIRO: Based on what you have heard out of Washington D.C. so far, do you think that there is a tendency to overreach? You know, let's fix everything in one fell swoop? JD: Our Democratic process is wonderful. It's messy. So we're watching the mess unfold right now. There's lots of opportunity for mischief and for people looking to get their little piece of this. I hope leadership will prevail, calm heads will establish a compromise that works, that's effective, and that through the regular delivery process we will tackle these larger issues and apply the lessons learned. KIRO: When you heard a couple of members of Congress had come up with a plan out of left or right field as the case may be, where they said "let Wall Street bail itself out" and "let's make them pay for this bailout", how realistic is it? JD: Our financial system is on the brink, there are huge losses which have to be stopped. Somebody is going to have to pay and since it's the credit of the United States, which is the only thing powerful enough and big enough at this point to intervene, then taxpayers are going to have to pick up some of this tab. That's just where we are. Look, this is like the economic equivalent of war. Our economy has been attacked, and it has to be defended. We can figure out who did what later, but we can't sit around trying to analyze every problem we have or try to minimize the risk that we face. Action needs to take place now. KIRO: What about the financial situation for the state of Washington right now? As things keep unfolding, and people continue to see bad news, what can you tell them about their investments and future? JD: From last week to next year, our approach is the same. We have a high quality portfolio of globally diversified assets. We hire investment managers with impeccable integrity. And, we remain focused on the long term. We will weather the ups and downs. This is what comes from investing in capital markets. When there is this much disruption and this much fear, there's also opportunity. So we are looking for what we can do to take advantage of asset prices which may be lower than they should be. Page 2 of 3 Washington State Investment Board KIRO: What are your other reflections on what is taking place and the impact it will have on the state as a whole? JD: A problem of this magnitude is not the product of one thing or another. It's a combination of events that started with too much debt and too much leverage in terms of home loaners, home lenders, and Wall Street firms. In addition, incentives were misaligned with executives that got paid for the short term and regulators who didn't exercise the power they have to step in. Risk models were built by really smart people that made some very fundamental errors in not checking their assumptions, and this giddiness of "everything is great, prices are going up, we're all making money, and the trees are going to grow to the sky" all worked to bring us to this point today. The thing to remember is we are on the opposite stage of that now, where there is gloom, despair, and pessimism. This system will right itself and for investors, both institutional ones like us and creative individuals it's important to have a plan and stick to it. Don't make emotional decisions now. This is a wonderful country. We are resilient, we have a tremendous economy, we will get through this, and we will be stronger and better for it. KIRO: What comes next? JD: You have to think of credit as the life blood of our system and if it doesn't circulate the system stops. All businesses, every employee, government, and community has something at risk, not just in the United States, but around the world. This is about the confidence of the United States, its economy, its government, its ability to assure that the wheels of commerce and trade between nations will continue. To have that come to a halt is unthinkable. Page 3 of 3
