Additional Information
About Asociación ASDIRASDIR (Asociación de Desarrollo Integral Rural - Association for the Development of Rural Communities) is a community-based organization that works to promote development in the villages and communities where it serves. It was founded in 1999 in the village of Nimasac, Totonicapán Department, by a handful of local men and women to support community projects and group loans. Today ASDIR has 5 offices across 3 departments (Totonicapán, Sololá and Suchitepéquez) serving more than 6,000 clients, most of them in rural communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The Hoyas' opener at Tulane, a decent Conference USA team, was better than scheduling some weak 250-plus power-rating puff. Taking on reshuffling Temple, which is always a drain, was next on the schedule. Georgetown won both of those games.
On Saturday, the Hoyas will face a road game at Savannah State. Then it's a supposedly easy stretch of games against Lafayette, Mount St. Mary's and American at home before the brutal part of the schedule hits with Butler in New York at the Jimmy V, Washington at the Wooden Classic in Anaheim and home against CAA favorite Old Dominion. "I put this schedule together because I wanted this team to be tested,'' said JT3. His Hoyas were hot early last year (defeated Maryland in Orlando, Memphis at home and won at Connecticut), but they flamed out in the Big East by finishing with a 7-11 record.
"I wanted to see who we were,'' JT3 said. "It's not the normal opening stretch. What we didn't do at Tulane is better ourselves. The game against Temple was ugly as both teams played good defense. We had to hold on to win. I wanted to see how this team would handle adversity, grow from these situations and how they'd deal with it. This schedule is by design to give us adversity since that's the way our league works.''
What we learned about Georgetown against Temple is that sophomore center Greg Monroe can take over the game when he needs to -- which may be every time out.
Monroe deposited the winning bucket on a drive to the hoop. On the ensuing Temple possession, he snuffed out Luis Guzman's attempt at winning the game with 1.3 seconds left.
Monroe finished with 11 points and nine boards in the 46-45 victory over the Owls. "That's what we can expect,'' JT3 said of Monroe being the guy for the Hoyas on both ends of the court.
The Hoyas had to play defense for 35 seconds and had to be disciplined and patient as points were at a premium.
But that was against Temple. Now, if for some reason the Hoyas can't score more than 50 points when they're not as handcuffed, then there is an issue. Butler could pose that threat, but Washington won't. So, we'll learn more about the Hoyas in the coming weeks. That's something that might not be the case with other contenders in high-major leagues if they're not testing themselves like Georgetown is doing the first month.
• Gonzaga lost five games prior to the NCAA tournament last season. If Robert Sacre was healthy, the Zags may have lost only three.
That's Mark Few's opinion. The Gonzaga coach said Sacre's impact on last season's team, as a complimentary player to Josh Heytvelt, was understated. "People have selective memories,'' Few said Wednesday, following the Zags' near miss at Michigan State the previous night. "We rolled through Orlando last year with him when he was healthy. I really think there were a few games we wouldn't have lost with him last year. We had the counter punch to Heytvelt with him.''
Heytvelt is gone, but Sacre has returned and has more than held his own as the next Zag big man who can handle any assignment. Sacre scored 17 points, made 7 of 12 shots,and grabbed four boards in competing against the rotation of bigs for the Spartans. "He's always been a physical entity who has worked really hard,'' Few said. "The post moves come natural to him. He's a physical entity who we didn't have last year.''
Sacre is a third-year sophomore. German national Elias Harris is a 20-year old freshman. The two "experienced" and new fulltime players in the rotation are making this team seem less green next to senior guard Matt Bouldin. Harris was smooth in scoring 17 points, grabbing nine boards and making 6 of 16 shots against Michigan State. "He's as good as we have had,'' Few said of Harris. "He's a good, tough, hard-nosed competitive dude.''
This Gonzaga team isn't in the Top 25 and is not nearly as hyped as previous teams.
Yet, this one looked like it played harder and smarter than previous ones. I was down in Orlando last year, and that Zag team was more physical than Tennessee (which wasn't as great a claim to fame since last season's Vols team faded).
But the Zags' physicality at the Breslin Center was at another pitch. We'll see if they can sustain that next week in Maui, where they will be, along with Maryland and Vanderbilt, one of the favorites to win the Maui Invitational championship (I wouldn't count out Arizona or Cincinnati, either).
• After watching Butler's 67-54 win at depleted Northwestern, it's hard not seeing the Bulldogs as a legit Final Four contender. They don't get rattled, have veteran leadership and simply make shots. For the Wildcats, scoring is going to be a strain at times without Kevin Coble (out for the year with a foot injury).
• Yet another reason why I don't buy that NC State coach Sidney Lowe is in trouble: His recruiting class is No. 12.
• It's impressive that Cornell won at UMass with Ryan Wittman going 1-for-8 from the floor. The Big Red got a big night from Louis Dale (24 points) in the 74-61 win. Cornell has now won at Alabama and at UMass.
• Memphis coach Josh Pastner couldn't have been happier on Wednesday after his team's near miss against Kansas on Tuesday. Pastner said Elliot Williams has been a solid leader. That was clear in his performance against the Jayhawks. He led the Tigers by making -- and taking -- the big shots. Pastner said Williams' game-winning attempt was a great look. But the coach couldn't get over how much of a load Cole Aldrich was in the middle. If the Tigers are to be successful this season, they must use their speed and quickness to survive because they are depleted up front. It worked for all but one shot on Tuesday night.
• Rough start for Holy Cross' Sean Kearney. The Crusaders' two losses are against Harvard and Saint Joseph's, two teams that might be better than advertised.
• Some new stars emerged Tuesday:
• Michigan State's Durrell Summers: 21 points and 11 boards in win over Gonzaga.
• Elliot Williams as a dominant player, now with the Tigers instead of Blue Devils (21 points against Kansas).
• Louisville guard, and former Mississippi State transfer, Reginald Delk (20 points vs. Arkansas).
• Freshman Brandon Paul continues to lead Illinois (20 points vs. Northern Illinois).
• Boston College's Tyler Roche, who scored 30 in one game and 19 in the next, as the Eagles played the first two without three suspended players.
• Pitt's Ashton Gibbs (22 points vs. Binghamton), who led the Jamie Dixon-coached Under 19 team to Olympic gold in New Zealand.
• Iowa State's Lucca Staiger goes for 32 (including 10 3s) in a win over Drake. If Staiger is a scorer, then the Cyclones have three legit options on offense (including Craig Brackins and Marquis Gilstrap.
• Arizona State's Eric Boateng (21 points and 12 boards in a win over TCU).
• Xavier's Jordan Crawford, the former Indiana guard, scored 24 in a blowout win over Bowling Green.
• New Mexico's Phillip McDonald scored 27 in the win at New Mexico State.
• Iowa lost at home to Duquesne to fall to 0-2 in the CBE Classic (the Hawkeyes also lost to UT-San Antonio). It doesn't matter. Iowa is going to Kansas City next week to play Texas, while Wichita State plays Pitt in the semifinals.

Big news on the mortgage rate front today, and some of you might not be happy about it.
According to the weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey from Freddie Mac, mortgage rates took a jump for the third consecutive week, and who knows if rates will fall again to the levels of three weeks ago.
Now, I have good news and bad news.
The good news is if you locked in to a mortgage or refinanced within the past month, you seized the day and took advantage of some of the lowest rates you will probably ever see.
The bad news is if you waited and felt that rates were going to drop further while totally ignoring my advice for the past year, you could have missed out on some unbelievably low mortgage rates.
Clearly rates could fall at any time again, but you would be taking a major risk by waiting for mortgage rates to drop again.
Let's take a look at this week's numbers.
30-year fixed-rate mortgages jumped from last week's 3.59% with 0.6 points to 3.62% with 0.6 points. You would have to track backward a month to find a rate this high when 30-year fixed-rate mortgages averaged 3.62% the week ending in July 5, 2012. Last year at this time, 30-year fixed-rate mortgages averaged 4.15%.
15-year fixed-rate mortgages jumped slightly to 2.84% with 0.6 points from last week's 2.83% with 0.6 points. It seems as if 15-year fixed-rate mortgages have settled comfortably lower than 3.00% seeing that the average has been lower than 3.00% since May 24, 2012. Last year at this time, 15-year fixed-rate mortgages averaged 3.36%.
5/1-year ARMs fell to 2.76% with 0.6 points from last week's 2.77% with 0.6 points, while 1-year ARMs jumped to 2.69% with 0.4 points from last week's 2.65% with 0.4 points.
Last year at this time, 5/1-year ARMs and 1-year ARMs averaged 3.08% and 2.86%, respectively.
So what did my dude Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist from Freddie Mac, have to say this week? Surely he had some stellar insight as always.
He explained, "The latest economic indicators point toward low inflation but gradually stronger economic activity which placed further upward pressure on long-term Treasury yields and, in turn, fixed mortgage rates. For example, inflation remains in check with 12-month growth in the core consumer price index falling for a second month to 2.1 percent in July. At the same time, industrial production rose 0.6 percent in July compared to a 0.1 percent increase in June and retail sales jumped 0.8 percent in July from a 0.7 percent decline in June."
This sounds like the exact same thing that I wrote in my journal.
Moral of this story? Rates could be heading in a direction you don't want them to head in if you want to refinance or get a new mortgage. The time is now. Call us today!
If so, subscribe now for tips on home, money, and life delivered straight to your inbox.

I am wondering if the rates have decreased since my last refinance and if so would it be wise to refinance.
What are my rates now and where would they be if I refinanced again?
Not sure what my % is on my current Mortgage.
But I have a letter here saying they can refinance my 30 year fixed at 3.50. No closing cost.
Please let me know what you think.

While the teams behind "The Social Network" and "The King's Speech" are toasting their Oscar noms, another group of folks is also celebrating Tuesday morning's (January 25) Academy Award nominations announcement. The cast and crew of "The Fighter" earned seven nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director (David O. Russell), Best Supporting Actor (Christian Bale), and two Best Supporting Actress nods for Amy Adams and Melissa Leo.
MTV News spoke with "Fighter" producer and Relativity Media CEO Ryan Kavanaugh (Relativity fully produced and financed the film) just after he heard the big news.
"When I got the news, I was on the phone with David O. Russell and [Mark] Wahlberg and myself, kinda watching and I think you could hear screaming through each house," he said of their reactions. "The person I'm most excited for is David O. Russell because he really deserved it, he really delivered this package. He's obviously had his ups and downs in his career, as many people have. He really came through on this movie and it's nice that the Academy noticed that for him."
Kavanaugh's fellow producer and the star of the film, Mark Wahlberg, also praised the director and his co-stars in a statement: "It has been such an incredible journey with 'The Fighter' and one that I am grateful to share with David O. Russell, Christian, Melissa, Amy, my fellow producers and the Ward and Eklund families, who are the heart and soul of the film. Thank you to the Academy for this tremendous honor."
Regarding Adams' and Leo's dual nominations in the Best Supporting Actress category, the Relativity Media CEO said the actresses won't be thinking about competition at all.
"It's funny because I think Amy and Melissa, they're just as happy if the other one wins," he said. "They are competing against each other but at the same time, I think they're both really happy for the other one."
Kavanaugh went on to say that although he'd like to go back to bed — Oscar nominations were announced at 5:30 a.m. on the West Coast — he has a long day of work and, later, congratulating to do.
"I've got a pretty full day coming up. I'll stop by Mark's house, I'll stop by David's house, give 'em both a big hug," he said. "[I'll] try and stop by Christian's house although he's probably holed up and won't even turn on the TV until 10 a.m."
Check out everything we've got on "The Fighter."

Dolphins and other members of the cetacean order are among the most vocal of the nonhuman mammals and exhibit remarkable development of the sound production and auditory mechanisms. This paper reports on the training of a bottlenosed dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) to mimic a wide variety of computer- generated sounds and to vocally label displayed real-world objects using some of these same sounds. The description of the training results is followed by a consideration of the implications of the mimicry and labeling ability for cognition in dolphins, particularly in regard to the relation of mimicry to cognitive complexity, and to the potential use of a vocal response mode for two-way communication in an artificial language. Finally, I discuss the implications of a laboratory demonstration of mimicry for studies of the natural communication behavior of dolphins.
The bottlenosed dolphin in captivity produces two broad categories of vocalizations: (a) narrow-band, frequency-varying, continuous tonal sounds referred to as "whistles" and (b) broad-band pulsed sounds expressed as trains of very short-duration clicks of varying rates ( Evans, 1967; Lilly, 1962). The pulsed sounds are used for both communication and echolocation, and the whistles appear to be used primarily for communication ( Herman & Tavolga, 1980). Descriptions of vocalizations emphasizing either the whistles or the pulsed sounds have led to contradictory hypotheses in the literature concerning the communication system of the dolphin. Some descriptions concentrating on the whistle vocalizations of dolphins in captivity have stressed the stereotyped, individually specific nature of these sounds. It has been reported that individually

Worship Experience
Worship in the Round
At St. Mark's, we worship in the round. It is one of the defining aspects of our community. In the 1950s, a major transformation was made by replacing pews with moveable chairs. We continue to re-arrange chairs to this day. Our central altar is one step up from the floor; this communicates our belief and hope that God is with us, among us, in us. We don't all profess to "know" God – for some of us, faith is as natural as breathing air; for others of our community, we have reasonable doubts. We revere the disciple, Thomas, who made his doubts known, who asked questions others may have wondered about, and who made himself vulnerable to Jesus.
What is "Open Communion"?
"Wherever you are on your faith journey, wherever you have come from and wherever you are going to, whatever you believe, whatever you do not believe, all are welcome to partake of the Lord's meal. This is God's meal, not ours."
At St. Mark's, we welcome everyone to celebrate Eucharist with us. We believe in the inherent value of all travelers in this life journey; "open communion" reminds the parishioners and visitors that all are invited to the Lord's table. Surrounding a central altar, all participants, regardless of whether or not they have been baptized, join together shoulder to shoulder to share the gifts of bread and wine.
Sermon Seminar
One of the innovative aspects of our worship is our "Sermon Seminar," which takes place at 10 am, immediately following 9 am Holy Eucharist (which omits the sermon). At Sermon Seminar, anyone from the congregation can offer feedback and comment on the sermon after it is preached. Through Sermon Seminar, we as a community tell our individual and collective stories, puzzle over what we heard, and even challenge it. It is one of the ways in which we strive to listen to each other as we study the meaning of the Biblical stories and try to apply them to our lives.
Please contact the Co-Chairs of Worship with any questions or request for information.

essay diwali english translation iX. Guru Gobind Singh ji(1666 - 1708)
The tenth and the last Guru or Prophet-teacher of the Sikh faith, was born Gobind Rai Sodhi on Poh 7, 1723 sk/22 December 1666 at Patna, in Bihar. His father, Guru Tegh Bahadur, the Ninth Guru, was then travelling across Bengal and Assam. Returning to Patna in 1670, he directed his family to return to the Punjab. On the site of the house at Patna in which Gobind Rai was born and where he spent his early childhood now stands a sacred shrine, Takht Sri Harimandar Sahib, one of the five most honoured seats of religious authority (takht, lit. throne) for the Sikhs. Gobind Rai was escorted to Anandpur (then known as Chakk Nanaki)on the foothills of the Sivaliks where he reached in March 1672 and where his early education included reading and writing of Punjabi, Braj, Sanskrit and Persian. He was barely nine years of age when a sudden turn came in his life as well as in the life of tile community he was destined to lead. Early in 1675, a group Kashmiri Brahmans, drivels to desperation by the religious fanaticism of the Mughals General, Iftikar Khan, visited Anandpur to seek Guru Tegh Bahadur's intercession. As the Guru sat reflecting what to do, young Gobind Rai, arriving there in company with his playmates, asked Why he looked so preoccupied. The father, as records Kuir Singh in his Gurbilas Patshahi 10, replied, "Grave are the burdens the earth bears. She will be redeemed only if a truly worthy person comes forward to lay down his head. Distress will then be expunged and happiness ushered in." "None could be worthier than yourself to make such a sacrifice," remarked Gobind Rai in his innocent manner. Guru Tegh Bahadur soon aftenwards proceeded to the imperial capital, Delhi, and courted death on 11 November 1675.
Guru Gobind Singh was formally installed Guru on the Baisakhi day of 1733 Bk/29 March 1676. In the midst of his engagement with the concerns of the community, he gave attention to the mastery of physical skills and literary accomplishment. He had grown into a comely youth spare, lithe of limb and energetic. He had a natural genius for poetic composition and his early years were assiduously given to this pursuit. The Var Sri Bhagauti Ji Ki, popularly called Chandi di Var. written in 1684, was his first composition and his only major work in the Punjabi language. The poem depicted the legendary contest between the gods and the demons as described in the Markandeya Purana . The choice of a warlike theme for this and a number of his later compositions such as the two Chandi Charitras, mostly in Braj, was made to infuse martial spirit among his followers to prepare them to stand up against injustice and tyranny.
Much of Guru Gobind Singh's creative literary work was done at Paonta he had founded on the banks of the River Yamuna and to which site he had temporarily shifted in April 1685. Poetry as such was, however, not his aim. For him it was a means of revealing the divine principle and concretizing a personal vision of the Supreme Being that had been vouchsafed to him. His Japu and the composition known as Akal Ustati are in this tenor. Through his poetry he preached love and equality and a strictly ethical and moral code of conduct. He preached the worship of the One Supreme Being, deprecating idolatry and superstitious beliefs and observances. The glorification of the sword itself which he eulogized as Bhaguati was to secure fulfilment of God'sjustice. The sword was never meant as a symbol of aggression, and it was never to be used for self-aggrandizement. It was the emblem of manliness and self-respect and was to be used only in self-defence, as a last resort. For Guru Gobind Singh said in a Persian couplet in his Zafarnamah:
When all other means have failed,
It is but lawful to take to the sword.
During his stay at Paonta, Guru Gobind Singh availed himself of his spare time to practise different forms of manly exercises, such as riding, swimming and archery. His increasing influence among the people and the martial exercises of his men excited the jealousy of the neighbouring Rajpat hill rulers who led by Raja Fateh Chand of Garhval collected a host to attack him. But they were worsted in an action at Bhangam, about 10 km northeast of Paonta, on 18 Assu 1745 sk/18 September 1688. Soon there after Guru Gobind Singh left Paonta and returned to Anandpur which he fortified in view of the continuing hostility of the Rajput chiefs as well as of the repressive policy of the imperial government at Delhi. The Guru and his Sikhs were involved in a battle with a Mughal commander, Alif Khan, at Nadaun on the left bank of the Beas, about 30 km southeast of Kangra, on 22 Chet 1747 Bk/20 March 1691. Describing the battle in stirring verse in Bachitra Natak, he said that Alif Khan fled in utter disarray "without being able to give any attention to his camp." Among several other skirmishes that occurred was the Husaim battle (20 Februaly 1696) fought against Husain K an, an imperial general, which resulted in a decisive victory for the Sikhs. Following the appointment in 1694 of the liberal Prince Muazzam (later Emperor Bahadur Shah) as viceroy of northwestern region including Punjab, there was however a brief respite from pressure from the ruling authority.
In 1698, Guru Gobind Singh issued directions to Sikh sangats or communities in different parts not to acknowledge masands, the local ministers, against whom he had heard complaints. Sikhs, he instructed, should come to Anandpur straight without any intermediaries and bring their offerings personally. The Guru thus established direct relationship with his Sikhs and addressed them as his Khalsa, Persian term used for crown-lands as distinguished from feudal chiefs. The institution of the Khalsa was given concrete form on 30 March 1699 when Sikhs had gathered at Anandpur in large numbers for the annual festival of Baisakhi. Gurb Gobind Singh appeared before the assembly dramatically on that day with a naked sword in hand and, to quote Kuir Singh, Gurbilas Patshahz 10, spoke: "Is there present a true Sikh who would offer his head to the Guru as a sacrifice?" The words numbed the audience who looked on in awed silence. The Gurb repeated the call. At the third call Daya Ram, a Sobti Khatri of Lahore, arose and humbly walked behind the Guru to a tent near by. The Gurb returned with his sword dripping blood, and asked for another head. At this Dharam Das, a Jat from Hastinapur, came forward and was taken inside the enclosure. Guru Gobind Singh made three more calls. Muhkam Chand, a washerman from Dvarka, Himmat, a water-carrier from Jagannath puri, and Sahib Chand, a barber from Bidar (Karnataka) responded one after another and advanced to offer their heads. All the five were led back from the tent dressed alike in saffron-coloured raiment topped over with neatly tied turbans similarly dyed, with swords dangling by their sides. Guru Gobind Singh then introduced khande da pahul, i.e. initiation by sweetened water churned with a double-edged broad sword (khanda). Those five Sikhs were the first to be initiated. Guru Gobind Singh called them Panj Piare, the five devoted spirits beloved of the Guru. These five, three of them from the so-called low-castes, a Ksatriya and a Jatt, formed the nucleus of the self-abnegating, martial and casteless fellowship of the Khalsa. All of them surnamed Singh, meaning lion, were required to wear in future the five symbols of the Khalsa, all beginning with the letter K the kes or long hair and beard, kangha, a comb in the kes to keep it tidy as against the recluses who kept it matted in token of their having renounced the world, Kara, a steel bracelet, kachch, short breeches, and kirpan, a sword. They were enjoined to succour the helpless and fight the oppressor, to have faith in one God and to consider all human beings equal, irrespective of caste and creed. Guru Gobind Singh then himself received initiatory rites from five disciples, now invested with authority as Khalsa, and had his name changed from Gobind Rai to Gobind Singh. "Hail," as the poet subsequently sang, "Gobind Singh who is himself Master as well as disciple." Further injunctions were laid down for the Sikhs. They must never cut or trim their hair and beards, nor smoke tobacco. A Sikh must not have sexual relationship outside the marital bond, nor eat the flesh of an animal killed slowly in the Muslim way (or in any sacrificial ceremony).
These developments alarmed the casteridden Rajput chiefs of the Sivalik hills. They rallied under the leadership of the Raja of Bilaspur, in whose territory lay Anandpur, to forcibly evict Guru Gobind Singh from his hilly citadel. Their repeated expeditions during 1700-04 however proved abortive . They at last petitioned Emperor Aurangzeb for help. In concert with contingents sent under imperial orders by the governor of Lahore and those of the faujdar of Sirhind, they marched upon Anandpur and laid a siege to the fort in Jeth 1762 sk/May 1705. Over the months, the Guru and his Sikhs firmly withstood their successive assaults despite dire scarcity of food resulting from the prolonged blockade. While the besieged were reduced to desperate straits, the besiegers too were chagrined at the tenacity with which the Sikhs held out. At this stagy the besiegers offered, on solemn oaths of Quran, safe exit to the Sikhs if they quit Anandpur. At last, the town was evacuated during the night of Poh suds 1, 1762 sk/5-6 December 1705. But soon, as the Guru and his Sikhs came out, the hill monarchs and their Mughal allies set upon them in full fury. In the ensuing confusion many Sikhs were killed and all of the Guru's baggage, including most of the precious manuscripts, was lost. The Guru himself was able to make his way to Chamkaur, 40 km southwest of Anandpur, with barely 40 Sikhs and his two elder sons. There the imperial army, following closely on his heels, caught up with him. His two sons, Ajit Singh (b. 1687) and Jujhar Singh (b. 1691) and all but five of the Sikhs fell in the action that took place on 7 December 1705. The five surviving Sikhs bade the Guru to save himself in order to reconsolidate the Khalsa. Guru Gobind Singh with three of his Sikhs escaped into the wilderness of the Malva, two of his Muslim devotees, Gani Khan and Nabi Khan, helping him at great personal risk.
Guru Gobind Singh's two younger sons, Zorawar Singh (b. 1696) and Fateh Singh (b.1699), and his mother, Mata Gujari, were after the evacuation of Anandpur betrayed by their old servant and escort, Gangu, to the faujdar of Sirhind, who had the young children executed on 13 December 1705. Their grandmother died the same day. Befriended by another Muslim admirer, Ral Kalha of Raikot, Guru Gobind Singh reached Dina in the heart of the Malva. There he enlisted a few hundred warriors of the Brar clan, and also composed his famous letter, Zafarnamah or the Epistle of Victory, in Persian verse, addressed to Emperor Aurangzeb. The letter was a severe indictment of the Emperor and his commanders who had perjured their oath and treacherously attacked him once he was outside the safety of his fortification at Anandpur. It emphatically reiterated the sovereignty of morality in the affairs of State as much as in the conduct of human beings and held the means as important as the end. Two of the Sikhs, Daya Singh and Dharam Singh, were despatched with the Zafarnamah to Ahmadnagar in the South to deliver it to Aurangzeb, then in camp in that town.
From Dina, Guru Gobind Singh continued his westward march until, finding the host close upon his heels, he took position astride the water pool of Khidrana to make a last-ditch stand. The fighting on 29 December 1705 was hard and desperate. In spite of their overwhelming numbers, the Mughal troops failed to capture the Guru and had to retire in defeat. The most valorous part in this battle was played by a group of 40 Sikhs who had deserted the Guru at Anandpur during the long siege, but who, chided by their womenfolk at home, had come back under the leadership of a brave and devoted woman, Mai Bhago, to redeem themselves. They had fallen fighting desperately to check the enemy's advance towards the Guru's position. The Guru blessed the 40 dead as 40 mukte, i.e. the 40 Saved Ones. The site is now marked by a sacred shrine and tank and the town which has grown around them is called Muktsar, the Pool of liberations.
After spending some time in the Lakkhi Jungle country, Guru Gobind Singh arrived at Talvandi Sabo, now called Damdama Sahib, on 20 January 1706. During his stay there of over nine months, a number of Sikhs rejoined him. He prepared a fresh recension of Sikh Scripture, the Guru Granth Sahib, with the celebrated scholar, Bhai Mani Singh, as his amanuensis. From the number of scholars who had rallied round Guru Gobind Singh and from the literary activity initiated, the place came to be known as the Guru's Kashi or seat of learning like Varanasi.
The epistle Zafarnamah sent by Guru Gobind Singh from Dina seems to have touched the heart of Emperor Aurungzeb. He forthwith invited him for a meeting. According to Ahkam-i-Alamgiri, the Emperor had a letter written to the deputy governor of Lahore, Munim Khan, to conciliate the Guru and make the required arrangements for his journey to the Deccan. Guru Gobind Singh had, however, already left for the South on 30 October 1706. He was in the neighbourhood of Baghor, in Rajasthan, when the news arrived of the death of the Emperor at Ahmadnagar on 20 February 1707. The Guru there upon decided to return to the Punjab, via Shahjahanabad (Delhi) . That was the time when the sons of the deceased Emperor were preparing to contest succession. Guru Gobind Singh despatched for the help of the eldest claimant, the liberal Prince Muazzam, a token contingent of Sikhs which took part in the battle of Jajau (8 June 1707), decisively won by the Prince who ascended the throne with the title of Bahadur Shah. The new Emperor invited Guru Gobind Singh for a meeting which took place at Agra on 23 July 1707.
Emperor Bahadur Shah had at this time to move against the Kachhvaha Rajputs of Amber (Jaipur) and then to the Deccan where his youngest brother, Kam Baksh, had raised the standard of revolt. The Guru accompanied him and, as says Tarzkh-i-Bahadur Shahi, he addressed assemblies of people on the way preaching the word of Guru Nanak. The two camps crossed the River Tapti between 11 and 14 June 1708 and the Ban-Ganga on 14 August, arriving at Nanded, on the Godavari, towards the end of August. While Bahadur Shah proceeded further South, Guru Gobind Singh decided to stay awhile at Nanded. Here he met a Bairagi recluse, Madho Das, whom he converted a Sikh administering to him the vows of the Khalsa, renaming him Gurbakhsh Singh (popular name Banda Singh ). Guru Gobind Siligh gave Banda Singh five arrows from his own quiver and an escort, including five of his chosen Sikhs, and directed him to go to the Punjab and carry on the campaign against the tyranny of the provincial overlords.
Nawab Wazir Khan of Sirhind had felt concerned at the Emperor's conciliatory treatment of Guru Gobind Singh. Their marching together to the South made him jealous, and he charged two of his trusted men with murdering the Guru before his increasing friendship with the Emperor resulted in any harm to him. These two pathans Jamshed Khan and Wasil Beg are the names given in the Guru Kian Sakhian pursued the Guru secretly and overtook him at Nanded, where, according to Sri Gur Sobha by Senapati, a contemporary writer, one of them stabbed the Guru in the left side below the heart as he lay one evening in his chamber resting after the Rahrasi prayer. Before he could deal another blow, Guru Gobind Singh struck him down with his sabre, while his fleeing companion fell under the swords of Sikhs who had rushed in on hearing the noise. As the news reached Bahadur Shah's camp, he sent expert surgeons, including an Englishman, Cole by name, to attend on the Guru. The wound was stitched and appeared to have healed quickly but, as the Guru one day applied strength to pull a stiff bow, it broke out again and bled profusely. This weakened the Guru beyond cure and he passed away on Kattak sudi 5, 1765 Bk/7 October 1708. Before the end came, Guru Gobind Singh had asked for the Sacred Volume to be brought forth. To quote Bhatt Vahi Talauda Parganah Jind: "Guru Gobind Singh, the Tenth Master, son of Guru Teg Bahadur, grandson of Guru Hargobind, great-grandson of Guru Arjan, of the family of Guru Ram Das Surajbansi, Gosal clan, Sodhi Khatri, resident of Anandpur, parganah Kahlur, now at Nanded, in the Godavari country in the Deccan, asked Bhai Daya Singh, on Wednesday, 7 October 1708, to fetch Sri Granth Sahib. In obedience to his orders, Daya Singh brought Sri Granth Sahib. The Guru placed before it five pice and a coconut and bowed his head before it. He said to the sangat, "It is my commandment: Own Sri Granthji in my place. He who so acknowledges it will obtain his reward. The Guru will rescue him. Know this as the truth".
Guru Gobind Singh thus passed on the succession with due ceremony to the Holy Book, the Guru Granth Sahib, ending the line of personal Gurus. "The Guru's spirit," he said, "will henceforth be in the Granth and the Khalsa. Where the Granth is with any five Sikhs representing the Khalsa, there will the Guru be." The Word enshrined in the Holy Book was always revered by the Gurus as well as by their disciples as of Divine origin. The Guru was the revealer of the Word. One day the Word was to take the place of the Guru. The inevitable came to pass when Guru Gobind Singh declared the Guru Granth Sahib as his successor. It was only through the Word that the Guruship could be made everlasting. The Word as contained in the Guru Granth Sahib was henceforth, and for all time to come to be the Guru for the Sikhs.

Lake Taupo in the centre of North Island is an amazing region. If you are interested in fishing , tramping , sking , bungy , Sky diving etc etc this is the place to go. There is so much to see and do. When I was here , I did some fly fishing on the Tongariro River as well as tramping in the National Parks. Amazing place. Whether you are looking for some R & R or some excitement and adrenalin rush, you can find both here.
Lake Taupo itself was created by the largest eruption of the past 5,000 years, it was so big the sun went hazy in China. Today, what remains is a lake the size of Singapore.
Taking a ride on the Huka jets to the huka falls is a great way to experience the awesome power of the falls but can be expensive.
Huka is the Maori word for foam.
NZ's most visited natural attraction. 3km north of Taupo. Largest waterfall on the Waikato River - 62,000 gallons (200,000 litres) per second.
Taupo Bungy over the huka river
- Pros:Great landscape, waterfalls, volcanoes, lakes, adventures.
- Cons:Main tourist areas so you get everything that comes with it.
- In a nutshell:More than just a big lake!

It's been awhile. We Americans have made a big fuss about it. The French just haven't produced a top notch rider in too long. Perhaps he has arrived?
A few solid season of building up to:
this year's Paris-Nice and a serious solo win at the Dwars dwar Vlanderen.
Perhaps Moreau can relinquish his not-really-that-glorious spot as best frenchman in the peloton?
I've got this frog tapped for a top 5 at the Ronde.

S + R? what does that stand for?
Spike + Rarity, I think! Not sure, it's been ages since I've drawn that, sorry!
daww what a cute moment !
i love it^^
i love it^^
Well, Celestia is like her mother... I guess a small kiss is understandable.
Celestia is her mentor, I guess you could call her a mother figure, but twilight does have an actual mother.
My girlfriend wanted me to ask what the letter said. her account name is zoroark-trainer here.
Huh? In fullview mode (click download) the letter should be readable!
All my d'awwwwws and HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGs..... you earned them all, sir.
Luv it
awww there such a cute couple <3
:3 D'aaaawww!!! sooo cute!! Well done m8
how did you keep track of all the layers? 14 most i try do
Just wait until you get into animating. 600+ layers. lol
goes to place this in favorites
oh wait! that's how I got here!
oh wait! that's how I got here!
this is freaking beautiful and depressing.
Why depressing?
because Twilestia is best ship, and I could see a beautiful bitter/sweet/ fanfic that I could write inspired by this drawing.
Oh please do and let me know when you're finished!
I will, but I have to warn you, I am not good at actually writing these things. I'm sure I will eventually, but I'm pretty busy with a billion other fanfics and other stuff, and I keep putting them off, so it might take a few weeks to stop procrastinating and do it. But I'll let you know when I finish, even if it takes a couple moths .
Also this will be my second or third written story, so it might not be very good, but I'll try
Very cute!
Cute. Twilestia is best ship.
whats that red slash on Twi's face?
Could you give me the rest of that report?
I would've thought that the hat would've gone over the horn.
the last friday night image of JJ!
yeah is awesome
and your is great too!
yeah is awesome
and your is great too!
Is there a complete version of Twilight's Letter? It looks like an entertaining/interesting read.
Sadly I didn't write a complete version of the letter, I'm sorry.
At first, I thought that red line was a gash on Twilight's face. Since it looks like blood.

What Is Science?
- next ›
- 61 of 535
- ‹ previous
How do we first begin to introduce the ideas of science to young children? Lucky for us, children are little scientists by nature, interested in exploring their surroundings and conducting their own experiments (how loud will Mom yell if I put this cord in my mouth? How many times can I jump on the bed before I hear the springs crack? What happens if I put my little brother in the washing machine?). In addition to plenty of free time outside to play and explore, share these books with your budding scientists to help them learn more about their world.
Start with the Basics
A great place to start is Rebecca Kai Dotlich's brightly illustrated What Is Science? Sometimes big, abstract concepts can be hard for little kids to get a handle on, and this picture book walks through several examples of what science really is. Science is looking at the stars in the sky. It's watching plants grow. Science is the way a ball falls down and bounces up again. With clear, simple wording and detailed pictures, this book is a great introduction to all things science.
The Great Gail Gibbons
Author and illustrator Gail Gibbons is another great resource for science-themed picture books. Introduce some weather science with Hurricanes! and Tornadoes. Or check out The Planets and Galaxies, Galaxies! for your budding astronomer.
All About Gravity
Your little one doesn't have to be able to pronounce "scientific method" to follow it, and learn about cause and effect. Check out I Fall Down, by Vicki Cobb, for simple examples of gravity with big, bright illustrations. This is a great gateway book for little kids who love tossing everything off the side of the couch just to watch it fall.
Get to Experimenting!
And if you want some really fun experiments to try, take a look through Smash It! Crash It! Launch It! 50 Mind-blowing, Eye-popping Science Experiments, by Rain Newcomb. All the experiments in Newcomb's book take kids' love of stomping, throwing, and building and use it to learn. Make predictions about how tall of a tower you can make out of newspaper, or what you need to build the best tomato catapult, and then get your hands dirty! The experiments only require common household supplies, about half an hour of time, and plenty of patience for mess-making.
Author Bio:
Chelsey can tell you exactly what happens if you try to put your little brother in the washing machine. She doesn't recommend it.

This question already has an answer here:
When I run the following php code the while loop only runs once even if there is more than one row in practice_calendar_times.
$sql = "
SELECT * FROM practice_calendar_times;
$result = mysql_query($sql, $con);
while($practice = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
//... Prints data from the row + more ...
On the web page I get a printed warning message: "Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /rmounts/vol0-nas/yorkweb/webs/fencing/MyWebSite/homecontent.php on line 113".
Line 113 is the while loop. I looked it up and apparently this is generally caused by a syntax error with the mysql query. However this is not the case here; the mysql is correctly pulling the first row from the database and the while loop is running once. If I replace the while with an if it does not complain and prints out one row. I also tried deleting all but one row in practice_calendar_times, but still get the warning message. However when I delete all of the rows it does not print a warning.
Any ideas on how to get the while loop to iterate through the table and stop complaining?

It wouldn't be a good idea to procrastinate this year on buying local strawberries for jam or preserves.
This year's strawberries are already a delicious-looking red, and local growers advise buyers to head to the farm store or farmers market before it's too late.
"Strawberries are coming in the earliest I have ever seen them in my life, and I have been growing strawberries since 1956," said Joe Beaudoin of Joe's Place Farms, 701 N.E. 112th Ave.
Beaudoin says his farm began picking on May 16, in sharp contrast to last year when only a few berries were ready to pick even by June 1.
The same is true at most other Southwest Washington berry farms. At Thoeny Farms in Woodland, picking began May 18, and the crop probably won't stretch into July, said Erin Thoeny. Those who wait until school is out or — worse — the Fourth of July to buy berries may find themselves outwitted by nature, she said.
"People aren't mentally ready to do jams and freeze," said Thoeny, who sells berries at the Vancouver Farmers Market and other mobile locations. "If they wait, there won't be any."
The long spell of unseasonably warm weather in early May quickly ripened local strawberries, and sped growth on other fruits that also will be ready to harvest much earlier than usual, according to local farmers.
Beaudoin said the berries were "a little slow waking up" before the unusual heat spell, and then wanted to blossom quickly in the warm, dry weather.
"I was really worried because the berries were all blossoms on top of the plant, which didn't have enough leaf area," he said. The farmers poured water onto the top of the plants and took the unusual step of applying spring fertilizer.
Next came the wave of cool weather and powerful rainstorms, providing much-needed moisture and slowing growth. Berries haven't had the mold that often accompanies spring rain during warmer weather, said Bill Zimmerman, owner of Bi-Zi Farms, 9504 N.E. 119 St.
Zimmerman is rare among local growers in not having berries ready for harvest, since he's planted late-developing varieties on his farm.
"The cold weather stopped the berries in their tracks," he said. "It was like putting them in a freezer."
He expects to begin harvest by the end of the week, still much earlier than usual.
Local growers are selling berries by the flat for just over $20 to about $25 per flat. Growers say they haven't yet set U-pick prices.

Neighbor has an old bike with friction shifting. It really needs new cables and housing. Can I use brake housing on the derailleur cables? She wants pink and I can find pink kits but the housing is all brake housing.
Neighbor has an old bike with friction shifting. It really needs new cables and housing. Can I use brake housing on the derailleur cables? She wants pink and I can find pink kits but the housing is all brake housing.
It'll work. Before index shifting there was only one kind of housing.
My greatest fear is all of my kids standing around my coffin and talking about "how sensible" dad was.
Thanks. I made the mistake of telling her there were colors besides black and white.
Have you told her saddles come in colors also?
yes coil cable housing is fine .. in use you compensate for a trifle more housing compressionNeighbor has an old bike with friction shifting.
by moving the shift lever slightly further ..
Here you go. Full brake and shift cable kit. http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Jagwire-...item337bc5b2aa
or better quality but more $$$ http://jagwire.com/products/v/road_pro Shop around for the best price.

The Jagwire cables mentioned ^^^ are really nice sets. I use the Pro series brake and shift cables on my hybrid.
We've got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out
However, we have other issues. It is a five speed on the rear and the chain is totally worn out---she actually rode the bike! And, the freewheel has broken teeth. This is a mid 1980s Panasonic mixte, not worth anything as far as I can tell. She is thinking about whether she wants me to fix it up or forget out it.
Well,new 5-speed freewheels can be has for $10 and a Walmart chain is probably $5 so putting the bike in riding condition won't be too expensive if it doesn't have any other serious flaws. Here's Amazon's listing for the freewheels:
OP, a long adjustable wrench usually works, or if the tool is set up with a 1/2" socket drive hole, a long torque wrench should provide the necessary leverage. If you only have a short adjustable wrench, a piece of pipe the handle will slide into makes a good cheater to give the extra torque.
Part of the problem with living in a motorhome is that you have to pick and chose what tools to have. No pipes. No long wrenches. I am headed to the co-op this afternoon.
