text: This book is a brilliant tour de force of spiritual realisation. Brightly illuminating the deepest meanings of the text, and making it very clear what Krishna was saying when he first spoke the Gita to Arjuna, Prabhupada takes us by the hand and leads us to realms of unlimited bliss. The evidence speaks for itself. Prabhupada himself said that before he presented this translation and commentary there were over fifty English versions of the Gita available in the West, and not a single person had become God conscious as a result of reading them – which is the essential aim of the Gita. But when his book appeared it started a worldwide movement of people who dedicated their lives to God. That movement is still growing as thousands of people discover these wonderful teachings each year, transforming their lives into a dynamic spiritual quest for the absolute. Every day I study this book and am amazed by the ever deeper levels of transcendental knowledge it contains. It is my manual for sanity and happiness. Whenever things are difficult, a dip into the pages of Prabhupada’s Gita will throw everything into its proper perspective. If I were to be cast away on some desert island with just one book, this would be the one. It is a veritable treasure chest of knowledge, or, as the Vedas themselves say, a desire tree that can fulfil your every wish.

Recently I wrote about the benefits of racewalking as a cross-training exercise for runners. Perhaps I've managed to convince you that the improved coordination, full-body strengthening and lower-impact cross-training effects that racewalking will offer you can indeed help your running.
But now what? How do you go from considering adding racewalking to your running program to actually doing it? Well, the first step is learning exactly what racewalking is.
When racewalking first appeared in the Olympics in 1908 it really was nothing more than fast walking. But if youve ever tried fitness walking for speed, youve probably discovered that theres a rather low threshold of pace beyond which technique can become extremely awkward  so much so that most people cant walk any faster than about a 12-minute mile, no matter how hard they try.
But racewalking is a different animal. It has evolved over the years from mere fast walking to become a speedy, fluid athletic event. Elite racewalkers can walk a 5K in under 20 minutes, and a marathon in just over 3 hours.
The rules that prevent racewalkers from running are actually part of the reason why the technique is so efficient  and so much easier on the body than running.
The first rule says that racewalkers must keep one foot on the ground at all times. Occasionally, an athlete may come off the ground a bit with each stride, but not so much that it can be detected by the human eye, since judges are placed all along the course to watch for infractions.
Because racewalkers stay so low to the ground, theyre much less likely to suffer the high-impact injuries that befall so many runners.
The other rule says that walkers must keep their knees straight from the moment the heel of the advancing leg hits the ground until that leg passes directly under the body. That may sound a little strange, but the straight leg not only provides the leverage that propels racewalkers forward so quickly, but also keeps the knee safe from many of the torsional injuries that runners commonly suffer.
To get an idea of what racewalking feels like, simply stand in place with your feet together and your arms held by your sides with the elbows bent at 90 degrees. Now pump your knees forward and back while keeping your feet flat on the ground, with your weight on your heels. Each time you pull your knee back, your leg will straighten under your body just as it will when youre racewalking.
Now all you need to do is add some stride length by stepping forward a bit with either foot each time you pump your knees. Just be sure to land on your heels, otherwise your knees will probably bend when your foot hits the ground.
Concentrate on taking short, quick steps, rather than long, slow strides. If you do that, youll have an easier time keeping your knees straight, and youll expend much less energy.
As you get stronger, your stride should get longer  but make sure the extra stride length is behind your body; keep it short in front.
Most people can pick up the technique the way I just outlined it, but if you feel that youre not getting the hang of the straight knee, you may have to try "Frankenstein walking" until you get your knees sorted out.
Start out by walking on your heels with your toes held up. Take short steps and maintain good posture. After you get the hang of that, allow your foot to flatten out as your body passes over it, but keep your legs stiff; continue landing on the heels, and keep your weight on your heels throughout the stride.
Now just take quicker and quicker steps. Your knees will start to bend as you step forward, but thats OK. Just make sure you keep landing on your heels so the knee stays straight on the way back.
Once youve got the feel of walking with your knees straight with the Frankenstein walk, you can gradually make it feel more like racewalking by bending the advancing knee more and more as it drives forward.
Doing either the knee pumps or the Frankenstein walk on a very gradual (3 to 5 percent) hill will make it even easier to pick up the technique. And once you have it, you can get faster by pumping your arms and driving your knees more vigorously to give yourself a longer, more powerful stride. Try it!
Next time Ill talk about adding racewalking to your running training program.

Have you ever thought why children are the most loved ones on the earth? The obvious reason would be their innocence. What reply would you expect from them for a question like ‘How’s your going?’ They are too immature to answer. Filled with such innocence, a cute little girl stood beside a pole near the market desperately waiting for her mother. It’s been long time since they were at the market. The girl stood wondering why her mother takes so long at the grocery.
Having decided in her mind that her mother would not turn up for at least one hour, she started moving to a better place where, she felt, is not crowded. Accidentally, she stepped her foot on something. Something that is so sticky. She wondered what it could be. It took no long for a woman of forty, sitting beside to shriek out, at the girl for having spoilt her clay-made toys. The girl stood quite, unknowing of what situation has turned out to be. The woman had said many things which she could not understand. But there were few phrases that pierced right to her heart and started thinking of what that exactly could mean.
The girl with a confused mind, walked off the place. Though she got out of it, she became so restless wanting to know what that woman had said. The phrases were ‘You have put my pain of work into vain’. ‘How will I survive and feed my children if I don’t earn’. ‘You spoiled my fruits of labour’. The girl wondered how clay could mean so much to them and why would that make people survive on earth. It was not too late when she heard a call from her mother and they returned home. During the weekend, they visited their grandpa’s house. She considered her grandpa to be the right person to clear her confusion. The next day, during the morning walk she narrated the whole story and demanded an explanation. Grandpa gave a wild smile and asked her what she knew about life. She replied very innocently ‘Life is what we exist’.
‘Life is not just about existence, it is all about how you live it. For simplicity, consider life as mixture of happiness, sorrows and lot more emotions. Life can always be judged under two categories success and failure.
Success makes you feel secure that you are heading to a right direction. Failure helps you learn the proper way to achieve success. Despite these, life teaches the values, morals one has to possess.
All in all, life is different for every individual. It is how you look up to life that matters. Never get carried away by silly assumptions of life. It is an everyday battle for people to work hard, gain their own piece of bread and butter, share among themselves and be grateful to God who has made this life more beautiful. It’s easy to complain, but very tough to understand. Life as a concept can’t explain itself, but life as an experience has it all. Never try to sit and understand what life is, let the life explain you what it is for you and judge your capability to tackle with it. Don’t get excited to know your future, let the life unfold it. Wait, not for time but for the challenges you need to overcome to face a better tomorrow.
After having listened to this, the girl’s face charmed like never before. We don’t know how much the girl understood then, but now she dared to share her thoughts with you. This is what life decided to teach her and to know about it at a very tender age. The shades of black and white are no longer colourless, but more vibrant than any another colour.

LAFC returns to MLS preseason play with a friendly against Columbus FC on Monday night, looking to mark its third victory of the preseason.
The Black and Gold have fared well so far in preseason play, defeating Toronto FC in a closed 3-1 victory and taking down Japanese club Vissel Kobe 4-1 in front of a packed Banc of California stadium. The team’s early victories have been solidified by aggressive play by the front line, led by captain Carlos Vela, who continues to act as the foundation of the attack in both scoring and assisting roles.
With defender Walker Zimmerman and goalkeeper Tyler Miller both back from the U.S. men’s national team January games — in which the American team went 2-0 — the team will be even more fully rounded against Toronto.
Although goals have not been flowing as steadily for the Crew as they have for LAFC, Columbus has survived the preseason so far without surrendering a goal, holding Vissel Kobe to 0-0 and notching a 1-0 win over Club Tijuana, a Liga MX club. The two clubs did not meet last season, so the match will offer a fresh look for both sides as they prepare for the regular season.
The Columbus match is one of three closed matches remaining in the preseason for LAFC, and it will stand as an opportunity to continue tuning up the full roster. With the home opener against Sporting KC looming less than a month away, head coach Bob Bradley’s team is well aware that it needs to be close regular season form.

While Everclear motor oils and transmission fluids remains on the shelves in Ohio, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services took clear and decisive action in December 2013 to get these products off the shelves in their State. They did so by issuing Stop-Sale Orders for Everclear 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 motor oil. In addition, Everclear Automatic Transmission Fluid was also pulled from sale for failure to meet any recognized specifications.
PQIA opened communications with the Federal Trade Commission office in Cleveland Ohio early in 2011 regarding Everclear motor oils and other motor oils with serious deficiencies that are sold in the State. Whereas the Ohio FTC office expressed concerns about the issue, they are reportedly “resource constrained” and, sadly, declined to take action. Although PQIA appreciates the Ohio FTC office’s comments suggesting that action might be taken in the future, PQIA remains very concerned that automobile engines and transmissions will be damaged while consumers wait.

On Sunday June the 3rd 2018, Snobs Creek Hatchery will be holding an open day from 10am-2pm. This is a free event and is part of the Victorian Government's Target One Million plan that is designed to get more Victorians involved in recreational fishing.
There will also be free tours of the facility, where visitors can learn about the history of the hatchery and how the fish are bred, raised, sorted and distributed throughout the state. It's also a great opportunity for children in particular, to learn about the life stages of the fish and see them up close.
For those wishing to purchase food and/or drinks on the day, there will be food vans and stalls.
Snobs Creek Hatchery is located in Eildon, about 140km north-east of Melbourne.
The hatchery has been operating for 70 years and produces millions of fish every year, including Murray cod (Australia's largest freshwater fish), Brown trout, Rainbow trout, Chinook salmon, Trout cod and Macquarie perch. The fish are transported throughout the state and then released to ensure that recreational fishing in Victoria remains sustainable for years to come.

I have been out of Daring Bakers’ scene lately. Not only that, I have’nt been doing a lot of baking and blogging too. Reason being guests, lot of travelling and sickness. I am back and active and I plan to cover a lot of things specially the last two DB challenges. For now, this month’s challenge which again turned out to be my favorite.
This is going to be a long post, I warn you. Not only because generally DB challenges are lengthy but making and decorating Sugar Cookies is a dream of every baker. Perfecting the sugar cookies can be a really rewarding experience owing to the versatility you can add in terms of flavors, shapes, decorating etc. I have previously posted about sugar cookies here and have also attempted to make cookie pops decorated with royal icing here.
I am glad that I found out this recipe of sugar cookies since they turned out perfect. Just a little sweeter given it will be decorated with Royal icing. Other than that the recipe is perfect and if ingredients are measured accurately and tips are followed, they are sure going to become your family favorites. They can make great giveaways individually wrapped in cellophane or decorated according to any special occasion.
For this challenge, we were given theme ‘September’ whatever that means to you. For me, since I have just come back from vacations in Karachi, Pakistan and had the most wonderful time celebrating Eid with our families after a long time. Eid, by now most of you know is the most important festival of Muslims and mark the end of holy month of Ramadan. This Eid also called Eid-ul-Fitr have many festivities related to it. Scrumptious food, new clothes, home renovations, charity and meeting family and relatives. Among them colorful bangles and henna or mehndi. My decorated sugar cookies are also inspired by mehndi which me and my 4 year old daughter absolutely adore.
Below you will find recipes, although for royal icing, I use meringue powder instant of raw egg whites. You can find the recipe in this post. Also included are the tips and some pointers. Please take time to explore, since its really very useful and once you master the art of decorating cookies, you will very proud of yourself.
Before you delve into sea of recipes, tips, method and information below, the following resources are worth checking.
And did you know you can make your own cookie cutters?

Continuing to learn food crafting – I ordered a cheese press and set about learning to make hard cheese. I have made soft cheeses for a while now and was ready to take the next step in cheesemaking. My first attempt came out reasonably well but I had a hard time with keeping the temperature controlled and slowly heating the curd. A trip to Chef’s Toys and the purchase of a couple of hotel pans made the next try a better experience. Using the Sansaire sous vide with the hotel pans made the temperature control accurate and stress free.
Cheese making is time consuming though. It took almost all day to prepare the curd for pressing. Much of the time was unattended thankfully: heating the milk, letting it ripen, cooking the curd, draining the curd.
I mixed up a batch of bread using my sourdough starter that demands daily feeding. I measured out 500 grams of grains from their bins and milled them using my new KoMo mill. I added 100 grams of the starter, 10 grams of salt, and 400 grams of water. After I made sure they were all combined, I left them to rest in a Cambro bin.
Then, I realized I should start a batch of yogurt for breakfast tomorrow. So out came the container with the little bit of yogurt from the last batch to be combined with milk in a quart jar. This is then added to the stockpot with the sous vide circulating heater set to 110°. I have found this to be a really great way to maintain the constant temperature for culturing dairy (thanks to Ernest Miller for the idea).
When I finished the set up I realized it might be time for a family photo of various fermentations that are now underway on my kitchen counter. On the left are the little cucumbers I started a little over a week ago, then the yogurt, and on the right the dough beginning its fermentation.
All of these transformations make such good and healthy food – thanks microbes!
In June of 2008 we purchased our first chicks. They were already getting a few of their pin feathers in place of the fluff. When they had enough feathers to move outside, they did so during the day and I brought them in at night. Their first outdoors home was the dog’s crate with the floor removed. They loved exploring their new world.
One of the new girls was an Easter Egger as they are sometimes called. She was a very hardy bird and the only one left of the original flock until today. She had been slowing down and yesterday was injured. She died today. As I buried her, the other hens were looking on from the other side of their fence. I thought they might be mourning but realized they only wanted to see if I was digging up any bugs!
Our brown chicken was a great layer for quite a long time and healthy for so long. She lived 6 1/2 years – a long time for chickens. She lived a lot longer than any industrial bird and she had a great life in our yard.
Maybe she thought she should get busy laying or I might bury her like I did her flockmate!
Fig beetles were winning. They had been swarming over the fig tree and eating the ripe fruit. They are really annoying bugs. They seem to fly randomly and will bump into anything including the side of the house. Do they have eyes?
So, a backyard harvest took place this morning. I gathered all of the figs – ripe now or not. I also decided that since we had the ladder out that my husband and I should gather the the rest of the pomegranates.
A morning of food preservation then began. The figs were washed and prepped for jam. Some of the figs were past ripe and beginning to ferment. Now I know why those bugs were flying so haphazardly – they were drunk on fermented figs!
Pomegranates are juicy so we made a giant mess getting seeds out of the pomegranates. We purchased a plastic grid device (pictured below) that assists in removing the seeds. It did a pretty good job so if you have a pomegranate tree and want to easily remove the seeds you might want to try it. After seeding and a spin in the food processor, we had five cups of pomegranate juice. Jelly making will take place soon.
At the Farmers’ Market this morning I could not resist these beautiful carrots. I had just moved a batch of fermented carrots to the refrigerator and really did not need any more but . . .
Now these beautiful carrots are joining the other vegetables bubbling away in the kitchen. And a note about the Kerr lid picture above: I am experimenting with putting a small hole in the lid and covering it loosely with tape. As the gasses form during fermentation, the tape develops a bubble and the gasses escape. Then the tape settles back making a type of airlock.

Home » Blogs » Charles Gaba's blog » No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn: I may have severely UNDERESTIMATED today's demand.
Exhibit A: Covered California announced a 2-day deadline extension yesterday, to 12/17.
Exhibit D: HealthCare.Gov's "Waiting Room" message (which pops up whenever they're experiencing extremely high web traffic) has been popping up most of the day.
Add all of these up and it strongly suggests that HealthCare.Gov may actually go ahead and bump out their January coverage deadline by a few days as well. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see an announcement in the next few hours that they're extending it (presumably through Saturday night, like CA/CT/NY have done).

One of the cool thing about using a Facebook fan page (as apposed to your private account) is that it means that you can hold your small business life and your private life separate on Facebook. Social media advertising and marketing is rapidly becoming one of the vital effective and probably the best strategies for sharing a business model and name with potential prospects. This is the reason why I discover many great places to eat and procuring venues are unfairly judged, especially in these times when money is tighter for people. Social media advertising is a powerful device that needs to be utilized by all business house owners.

The spring flower arrangement is a beautiful variety of fresh flowers arranged in a basket or a vase including flowers such as carnations, daisies, mums, pom poms, greens and filler.

The designer may use many different varieties of flowers when creating your bouquet but you can rest assured that all the flowers will be bright spring colors. Yet another way to customize your floral arrangement is to specify a flower vase or a flower basket, either of which will give you floral gift that personal touch. You can also ask that the designer use your favorite colors in your flower basket or vase to show that special someone that you really care.
The fall flower arrangement is basically the same as the spring flower arrangement. The main difference on the fall flower arrangement is that the flower colors will be more of the common fall colors such as burgundies, reds, yellows and browns. This is a very common selection during the fall and winter months and can help bring the fresh crisp fall season to regions of the world that don’t have the luck to experience this season for real.
The exotic/tropical flower arrangement is one of the most unique and different flower bouquets that we offer. This style floral arrangement takes a real artistic eye, using some of the most unique flowers available from exotic and tropical regions like Hawaii.

Social anxiety disorder, previously called social phobia, is a relatively common condition that creates significant distress for those affected. Certain types of social or performance situations trigger it. The person often attempts to deal with the anxiety by avoiding all situations that may trigger it. Social anxiety disorder is the most common of the anxiety disorders. An estimate of its lifetime prevalence in the general population is 7% to 12%. Social anxiety disorder is treatable; the main barrier is often the patient and caregiver's lack of awareness of the problem and of the potential for treatment. In everyday life, social anxiety disorder is often misinterpreted as shyness. People with the disorder are frequently misperceived as being aloof or uncaring. In the healthcare setting, social anxiety disorder can masquerade as nonadherence. No-shows are common among people with this disorder, and the patient may be misjudged as being irresponsible. With knowledge about this common but often hidden disorder, healthcare professionals as a team can help when they ask pertinent and sensitive questions that may bring the patient closer to diagnosis and treatment.
This course is intended for multiple professions, including nurses, physical therapists, radiologic technologists and social workers.

Revised data show Japan’s economy expanded at a slower than hoped for 1.2 percent annual pace in the last quarter of 2016.
The figure released Wednesday was slightly higher than the preliminary estimate of 1.0 percent annual growth for the world’s No. 3 economy. It was below economists’ forecasts for growth of 1.4 percent or higher.
In quarterly terms, the economy expanded 0.3 percent in the October-December. The earlier estimate was 0.2 percent.
A slight increase in corporate investment appeared to be the main factor behind the slight upgrade. Private demand remained flat, and public spending fell slightly.
“In fact, the data underline that the large fiscal stimulus package revealed last July remains but a mirage,” Marcel Thieliant of Capital Economics said in a commentary. Public investment fell for the second straight quarter, he noted, and was the lowest it has been since the Prime Minister Shinzo Abe launched his “Abenomics” recovery program of public spending, lavish monetary stimulus and reforms.
There was no change in the estimate of 1.0 percent annual growth in 2016.
Abe has struggled to deliver on promises of sustained, stronger growth as frugal consumers and companies have opted to save rather than spend more.
Instead, corporations are investing heavily abroad, in markets that promise faster growth than in aging Japan, where the population is shrinking.
Balance of payments data show that foreign investment overseas, which has been climbing for many years, rose to a record high of 3.4 percent of Japan’s GDP in the past year.
Exports remain a major contributor to growth for Japan, and uncertainty over President Donald Trump’s trade policies remain a concern.

One of the most popular rides in theme parks and amusement parks around the world is the Wave Swing ride. The most popular style of this ride is made by Zierer, and its seemingly delicate look makes it appear to be a much older version, with classic looking paintings and decorations adorning the ride's fiberglass panels. The model installed at Great Adventure was a park model version of the ride with 48 seats.
Opening as one of the park's original attractions in 1974, the Flying Wave was a staple for park visitors. The rides appeal to families was timeless, and was a great way to cool off on a hot summer day.
The original design of the Flying Wave had the operator's booth inside the tower. The operator stood inside the central plexiglas enclosure and even went outside the ride operator's booth while the ride was in motion.
The original yellow metal steps at the base of the ride were removed for 1982, eliminating the short climb for guests up to the swings.
The ride was originally encircled by a simple fence around the ride platform, and the seats did not originally have safety belts.
These modifications over the years improved the ride's safety for both the operators and guests.
In the early years, the artwork on the Flying Wave was colorful and vivid. Over the decades the fiberglass panels weathered and soon appeared drab and faded.
In 1997, for only one brief season, the ride was sponsored by Bic pens.
Even though the Flying Wave was a Great Adventure original attraction, it was one of the last rides to receive a decorative sign in 2005. Most people up until that point had no idea what the ride was called and simply referred to it as "The Swings".
In the 2003-2004 off season, the Flying Wave was disassembled for a total overhaul. By opening day of the season it had not yet been reassembled.
Over the following weekends of park operations guests could watch as the pieces of the ride were reassembled from the ground up.
The ride's light tubular steel framework for the canopy was assembled first around the central hub.
Once the framework was in place, the ride's center column was raised. The ride's hub traveled up this column, lifted by cables and pulleys. The tilt of the column at the top gave the ride its signature tilt and the rotation of the column in the opposite direction of the rotation of the canopy created the waves.
The swings themselves were reattached and the decorative fiberglass panels and lighting were secured to the frame before the canopy was hoisted into place.
The ride reopened to the public without its decorative canvas roof in place, allowing a usually un-seen view of the central column and steel framework.
The 2005-2006 off season saw yet another major rehab of Flying Wave, with the ride being rebuilt from the ground up again. Once again it was not ready to open with the park, allowing guests a few weeks of watching the reassembly process as all the parts came together.
A large gear would spin the central column, and a cylinder with copper bands would ride up the column supplying power for the ride's lighting.
Much of the ride's mechanics were located in the central tower of the ride. A small gray box coming up from the ground was where the drive gear met up with the drive shaft which was under the metal covering in the ground. The ride's drive motor was in a small building behind the Operator's booth. The drive shaft was inside a long covered trench that joined the ride and the motor house.
The fiberglass panels featured molded scrollwork decorations framing the hand painted flowers and portraits.
The ride was originally designed for portability and easy of assembly on the European fair circuits. Great Adventure's model was modified for park use with the relocation of the drive motor from the base platform to a remote building.
The Flying Wave at night was a spectacular sight with its hundreds of lights changing from white to red as it spun.
During its final years several minor changes occurred for the Flying Wave with the replacement of the light blue canvas roof with a new darker blue version. In addition, the old aluminum perimeter fence was replaced with a new black wrought iron fence.
Over the years the orange safety belts were added to the seats. The colorful synthetic wicker was replaced several times as it wore out and faded.
Even though the intricate paintings of Flying Wave's panels faded with time, the ride was still as popular as ever delighting the park's guests of all ages.
After several years of rehab work on the ride, the costs of repairs became too much and finally during the 2007-2008 off season the ride was removed from the park. It was not the intention to remove the ride but it was financially unfeasible to make the necessary repairs.
The ride's parts were moved to the park's maintenance area where they sat throughout the 2008 season, and they could be seen stacked along with other ride parts alongside the lift on Nitro.
After its removal, the Flying Wave's ride site was occupied with the Turbo Bungy upcharge trampoline attraction - a far cry from the once glorious Flying Wave swing ride.

For me, attending a state college, private college, or university was out of the question. I did not have the minimal ACT or SAT scores, and it had been 18 years since I had been in school. With open enrollment at community colleges, a college admission process that only requires you to have a high school diploma or a General Educational Development certificate, I decided to attend a community college by word of mouth and research done on the college website. Since I enrolled at Minneapolis Community and Technical College in the Fall of 2013, I have gotten the encouragement from my professors and in turn has given me the aspiration to push myself to excel in my studies.
I could not imagine starting my college education anywhere but Minneapolis Community and Technical College. The reason that I say this is because Minneapolis Community and Technical College makes me feel like family and very comfortable in achieving any goal that I may have. I came to Minneapolis Community and Technical College thinking that all the other students here would be a lot more advanced and superior than I am only because I took so much time off from school. Starting classes here my thoughts were completely changed by the way everyone was welcoming and eager to help me with whatever I needed. Another reason why I feel that Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a great place to get my feet wet is because of the small class sizes, that range from 18 to about 54 students, and convenient location from where I live. My commute, by personal transportation to campus is about 20 minutes or 5.5 miles away from where I live in St. Paul. Most four year colleges and universities would be hesitant to accept an individual like myself whose ACT and SAT scores were so low and most likely unacceptable at any university in Minnesota.
The more and more I continue my education at Minneapolis Community and Technical College, I fell in love with every aspect about this campus. The diversity in students here is very unique to me because where I come from I didn't see this many different ethnic backgrounds. I feel that this is a great way to meet new people and understand that Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a place where everyone is accepted and the only thing that matters here is going to class and striving to achieve the best grades and obtain knowledge can from each class. Another main reason that Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a great place for me to begin my education is the very low cost of attending the college unlike other institutes with high tuition. In all, I feel that I am very fortunate to be referred by my cousin Duane to a college like Minneapolis Community and Technical College.

Amanda Harkness volunteers as the Secretary of The Bhakta School of Transformation. She sits on our Board of Directors and also volunteers as a certified staff teacher and program leader for Nityananda Shaktipat Yoga.
“I teach because I could never repay the wealth I have received from Sadguru Kedarji, a true Yoga Master, and Nityananda Shaktipat Yoga. Several years ago, I found my life falling apart. I was depressed, anxious, stressed out, sick, worried about how to make ends meet, etc. As I attended programs and courses at Nityananda Shaktipat Yoga, I began learning simple but powerful methods and practices that began to completely transform my life. Depression, anxiety, worry, restlessness… all dissolved when I practiced what I was being taught. For the first time in my life, I was experiencing peace, content, and even bliss! These treasures are worth more than any material thing on earth! I teach out of gratitude and love for all that I have received, and so that others may also experience the joy, peace and bliss that is waiting for them, right now, in this moment, regardless of mundane circumstances or situations.

The latest dinosaur revival leads a stampede in a summer of sequels and reboots of franchises from another era.
The most memorable moment in Steven Spielberg's 1993 summer blockbuster "Jurassic Park" comes when he focuses his lens on a fleeing Jeep’s side-view mirror to show a fast-approaching, fang-flashing T-Rex and this text: "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear."
In that instant, Spielberg delivered enough excitement and anticipation to make gasping viewers swallow their popcorn whole.
"Jurassic World," the long-awaited fourth movie in the series, hits theaters Friday with state-of-the-art special effects likely to turn Spielberg's original dinosaurs into relics of another era. But the film – along with a spate of other flicks in a summer movie season filled with sequels and reboots of franchises dating back to the last century – should come with a warning: The past is a lot closer than it appears.
We're entering, for better or worse, a Jurassic time warp filled with new takes on old favorites. “Mad Max: Fury Road,” the extension of the 1979 low budget action thriller that put Mel Gibson on the post-apocalyptic map, is a box office and critical success. The recent remake of the 1982 horror flick "Poltergeist" didn’t fare near as well, and appears destined to get sucked soon into a TV near you.
Arnold Schwarzenegger makes good on his promise to be back with next month’s release of “Terminator Genisys,” the latest entry in a series that dates to 1984. And just because we could use some comic relief, the “Vacation” franchise, which debuted in 1983, returns with Ed Helms as Rusty, bent on reliving his parents' family trip into hell and hilarity.
Those of us old enough to have seen the originals in theaters know that revisiting the Wally Worlds of our youth don’t always live up to childhood memories. Great expectations, built over time, only raise the potential disappointment level.
Chris Pratt, who is being groomed as his time’s Harrison Ford-like action-adventure-comedy Everyman, stars in “Jurassic World.” The movie will mark a test of whether he's a bankable star or whether he risks overexposure. The same can be said for the film’s dinosaurs, whose forbearers were groundbreaking in the early 1990s, but might not wow audiences in quite the same way in an era where computer generated heroes and villains are ubiquitous and seamlessly integrated into cinematic storytelling. Director Colin Trevorrow, meanwhile, tackles the daunting task of trying to please different generations of moviegoers with somewhat differing outlooks.
The final summer box office figures, for “Jurassic World” and the rest of the 20th century revival stories, will tell whether we like what we see in the mirror. In the meantime, check out a preview of “Jurassic World,” as Hollywood awaits the verdict on the wisdom of bring dinosaurs back to life.

June 5, 2014: Islamic terrorism in Afghanistan and Pakistan is largely a Pushtun problem and is rarely noted outside the region. Pakistani Islamic terrorists are most often noticed when they kill people or blow something up. Most of this mayhem is caused by the Taliban, an organization formed by the Pakistani military in the early 1990s inside the Pakistani tribal territories. The membership was almost entirely Afghan Pushtuns living in refugee camps. After 2001 a Pakistani branch of the Taliban (staffed by Pakistani Pushtuns) was formed. Largely unnoticed (outside of Pakistan) is the fact that the Pushtuns have also been responsible for a lot more of the non-Islamic criminal activity inside Pakistan as well as most of the Islamic terrorism..
What is remarkable about this is that the Pushtun tribes comprise only 15 percent of the Pakistani population and are also the poorest and least educated minority. A unique feature of Pakistan is that it's 165 million people are all minorities, although the Punjabis (44 percent of the population) are the dominant one (not just in numbers, but in education and income as well). Closely allied with the Punjabis are the Sindis (14 percent), and together these two groups pretty much run the country. Karachi, the largest city in Pakistani, is in Sind, but contains residents from all over the country. Then there are Seraikis (10.5 percent, related to Punjabis), Muhajirs (7.6 percent, Moslems who came from India after 1947), Baluchis (3.6 percent) and other minorities amounting to about five percent. The Seraikis and Muhajirs live in Punjab and Sind.
Since September 11, 2001 there have been a lot more Pushtun fleeing to Pakistan's largest city, Karachi. This metropolis contains eight percent of the nation's population (14 million people) and produces a quarter of the GDP. Islamic radicals have long been present in the city. The Taliban have established a presence among the two million Pushtuns there. But a lot of the criminal gangs in Karachi are Pushtun and these are the gangs the Taliban often work closely with. Moreover there are now more murders in Karachi than in the tribal territories and this has been a trend since 2010. Finally, in 2013, the number of terrorist deaths in the northwestern tribal territories fell below 2,000 and the murders in Karachi rose above 2,000. Pakistani security forces are acutely aware of who is doing most of the mayhem.
A lot of the violence in Karachi is the result of the Taliban trying to prevent the police from stopping the Pushtun radicals establishing save havens in Karachi. The Taliban are succeeding at this, and many Islamic terrorist attacks in non-tribal Pakistan (where over 90 percent of the population is) are coming out of Karachi Pushtun neighborhoods. The Pushtun gangsters cooperate with the Taliban to keep the police out of Pushtun neighborhoods.
Currently some 20 percent of Karachi neighborhoods are controlled (to one degree or another) by Pushtun gangsters or Islamic terrorists. Poverty and Islamic radicalism are driving more Pushtuns out of the tribal territories and into the cities and the Taliban are following. The government is fighting back but with all the corruption and mismanagement in Karachi (and Pakistan in general), it’s a losing battle so far. The Karachi government is so corrupt that there are calls for the federal government to appoint a new city administration. But a new group would likely end up as corrupt as the old one.
In 2009 there was a sharp increase in Islamic terrorist bombing in Pakistan, but nearly all of them took place in the tribal territories (in the west and northwest, along the Afghan border). Nearly all the terrorists are Pushtun tribesmen, or al Qaeda foreigners (from Arab nations, Central Asia or Chechnya). In response the Pakistani armed forces went to war, with over 100,000 troops converging on the tribal territories, and killing thousands of Taliban gunmen, and scattering the terrorist militias that, earlier in the year, considered themselves invulnerable. Taliban safe houses and weapons storage sites have been captured, and police and soldiers are going door to door looking for senior Taliban members.
Naturally, one would expect most Taliban to flee for the hills, especially for distant kin, and a place to wait out the army offensive. Instead thousands of Taliban have fled to Karachi. That's because the city is home to over two million Pushtuns. About half these Pushtuns are Afghans (refugees from the 1980s war with Russia) and their children. Since Pushtuns, as a group, are ill equipped for urban living (low literacy, and few technical skills), most are poor. The low rent neighborhoods are full of Pushtuns, who are also overrepresented in criminal gangs. But the Pushtuns are closely watched by the police, and have earned some peace by not encouraging or supporting terrorists. Whenever this understanding is violated, as it is from time to time, the police lock a lot of people up, and even expel Afghans from the country. This last threat is much feared, and there's really no way to protect yourself from it, other than having done the cops some favors in the counter-terrorism department. But since 2009 this understanding has been wearing thin and the Pushtun are feeling more assertive in Karachi.

In response to a few requests to talk about the various art fairs, I offer you Miami 101. This post gives me a chance to show you some installation shots as I talk about what makes each fair what it is.
Each fair has its own identity, partly because of the geographic location and physical space, and partly because many of the same dealers return year after year, so their aesthetic becomes an integral part of the particular fair. Let’s start with the two big ones: Art Basel Miami Beach and Art Miami, which is across Biscayne Bay in downtown Miami.
ABMB at the Convention Center in Miami Beach is the big one, the largest and bluest-chip venue. There are some 265 galleries exhibiting, so you need a full day for this fair if you're going to see it all. I’m talking a full eight hours. It features a combination of secondary market art (some of it fabulous) and many big-name contemporary artists, along with offering exposure to a number of emerging galleries and their emerging artists. Everything’s expensive. If you visit galleries in New York or London there are no real surprises but plenty of interesting work—a world’s worth of art in the space of 172,000 square feet, about two-and-a-half football fields.
The tone at ABMB is strictly business. Tourists may post in front of this sculpture or that, but the dealers are focused on those who come to buy. If shoes alone were an indicator of the fair, it's high heels for the women, dealers and assistants alike, and narrow Italian styles for the men. I'm not sure there's a meter for this, but it seems that the higher the price point, the more towering the heels.
Here’s a random sampling of the art: a large, pristine Morris Louis and a small limited-edition Brancusi from Paul Kasmin Gallery, New York City; sculptures of wax antlers by Berlinde de Bruyekere at Galeria Continua, San Gimignano, Italy; an all-white installation from Tornabuoni Gallery, Paris and Roma; and a pink, fence-like sculpture by Louise Bourgeois, which I think was the same one shown at the Guggenheim a few years ago in her retrospective; plus some splendid geometric abstraction from Latin America, some by artists you’ve heard of, like Lygia Clark, but mostly by artists whose names and work are unfamiliar to you (unless you’re a Latin American art historian) who have been doing rigorous and beautiful work for decades. A few artists, like Yayoi Kusama and Louise Bourgeois, were shown by multiple galleries from various countries.
ABMB offers smaller galleries the opportunity to present solo shows or tightly curated installations in two separate sections: Positions (solos) and Nova (the curatorial efforts), which are placed in opposite corners of the fair. The galleries and their artists are often emerging, and prices are typically low in relation to what’s at the main fair. The booths are cubicles. The atmosphere is festive and looser here—like the kids’ table at holiday dinner. There’s a big undulating rectangle of Astroturf in the center of Nova, which affords tired fairgoers a place to nap or just check their map to reorient themselves.
Across the bay in Wynwood, the design section of downtown Miami, the Art Miami pavilion presides over a rafts of satellite fairs. Art Miami, the original Miami art fair, takes place under a large tent on a poured-concrete floor, so it feels both temporary and permanent. The white tent lets in a lot of light, much more than at the Convention Center, and the layout is easier to navigate (it’s also a bit smaller, which I personally appreciate). The glitz factor here can be a bit too bright. I understand one or two galleries—“Oh, look, shiny!”—but too many just hurts the eyes.
Fortunately, there’s some fabulous secondary-market painting, and strong contemporary work. I particularly like a grouping of galleries—including David Richard from Santa Fe and Renate Bender from Berlin—which have embraced abstraction and materiality in a big way. And every year I look forward to what the Bridgette Mayer Gallery from Philadelphia has to show. This year’s dramatic installation featured a lacy “curtain” of powder-coated steel by Rebecca Rutstein, which created a stage-like drama for Mayer’s double-wide booth.
Art Miami has smartly expanded with two additional freestanding fairs: Context, a smaller, edgier grouping of galleries next to the enormous Art Miami tent, and Aqua Art Miami on the beach side, a few blocks down from ABMB. I have no pictures,from Context so I'm sharing the one below from Accola Grieffen.
Founded eight years ago by Seattle-based artists Jaq Chartier and Dirk Park, Aqua has been purchased by Art Miami, giving that fair it a hipper, edgier presence and firm footing on the beach side. If killer heels were de rigueur at ABMB, here the footwear included flip flops, moccasins, sneakers—anything comfortable. Dealers and fairgoers, but mostly the fairgoers, took advantage of a small courtyard pool in which they plunged their feet at the end of the day. There was a food cart and plenty of beer.The only complaint, which I heard more than once, is that by the end of the day people were coming to party--DJs and singers performed in the evening, as the fair was open until 9:00 most evenings--rather than to buy art. (But I saw a lot of red dots.)The small scale, open courtyard and laid-back vibe make it one of my favorite fairs.
In the next post I’ll have overview pics from Miami Project, NADA, Untitled and Ink.
Great post, Joanne. I loved Kabinett devoted to the work of the Leon Polk Smith.
Thanks Joanne, I enjoyed your post and look forward to hearing about "draping". Got the flu 2 days before Basel and had to cancel my trip which was capped off by the snow storms and freezing arctic temps. Boo hoo. Going to re read and drool some more.
Nice post. I was there and always got lost at Art Basel in the convention center! I had a pass and went for a few hours on each of four days. Aqua was a lovely respite - yes, the feet in the fountain!
Looks great but I'm glad to have your report instead of being there myself. I'd need to call out the St. Bernard(s). Thanks, Joanne!

On Feb. 27, former Buncombe County Sheriff’s Lt. John “Johnny” Harrison agreed to a plea deal and confessed to being part of an extortion operation.
Harrison is the first of three deputies who served under former Sheriff Bobby Medford to accept a plea bargain, though several Medford allies have signed such deals in the last few weeks. He could face fines of up to $250,000, and up to 20 years in prison for the charge.
In his confession, Harrison agrees that he conspired to commit extortion and took bribes from illegal video-poker-machine operators to give them false registrations. The statement also asserts that he worked with former Capt. Guy Penland to cover up bribes to Medford. Penland also faces corruption charges, along with reserve Capt. Ronnie “Butch” Davis and Medford himself.
The plea arrangement is the latest of several reached in recent weeks, including deals with former Hot Dog King owner Demetre Theodossis, and Irving and Kerry Comer, employees of Weaverville businessman Jackie Shepherd, who is charged with running an illegal video poker ring with 41 machines in 10 locations.
In a separate but related matter, Medford recently appealed to the court for a second attorney and a delay in the trial date. Judge Thomas Ellis III denied this motion, asserting that the trial date of March 25, and Medford’s current counsel, provide him with plenty of opportunity to see the evidence against him.
