Here are New York City's most popular dog names, mapped out
Chris Dart
Filed to: DogsFiled to: Dogs
The New York City Department of Health has released its list of the most popular dog names of 2015, with last year's winners, Max and Bella, holding on to their title spots. (Bella has been the most popular name for female dogs since 2008.)
The survey also broke down the data several other ways. They looked at dog names by category like "fruits," "vegetables/herbs/spices," and "flowers." (It may interest you that 36 New York dogs are named Coconut, making it the second most popular fruit-themed name, though a fair margin behind the winner, Olive. There are 145 canine Olives in New York.) It also looks at the most popular names by breed. Winston is the most popular name for male English bulldogs, while female mixed-breed dogs are most likely to be called Lila. Male border collies are most likely to be named Bandit, while their female counterparts are most often named Izzy. But really, you shouldn't own border collies in the city; they tend to get bored and will try to herd cyclists and/or other people's children.
The Department of Health also broke down the popularity of dog names by borough and neighborhood. It turns out that most of the same names pop up again and again across the city, but there are a few interesting regional variations. Rocky is an extremely popular name in the outer boroughs, but it barely shows up in Manhattan. There is a band of Lunas that stretches from Upper Manhattan into the South Bronx, and Gizmo and Oreo are weirdly popular at the city's edges, in the North Bronx, in easternmost Queens, and on the southern tip of Staten Island.

3 Democrats have different views on role of sheriff
By Ryan Boetel / Journal Staff Writer
Monday, May 14th, 2018 at 12:05am
Four years ago, it came down to 376 people.
Sheriff Manuel Gonzales beat Sylvester Stanley in the Democratic primary for Bernalillo County sheriff in 2014 by a margin of 13,709 to 13,333.
Voters will have the same choice again this year. Gonzales, Stanley and candidate Joe Williams will be on the primary ballot in June.

Sylvester Stanley
(Candidate did not respond)
"I thought I was finished. But after the race in 2014 was so close, I thought, 'You know what. I'm going to give it one last go-around.' It's my ultimate goal to become sheriff of the department I spent 21 years on," Stanley, who is running for the position for the fourth time, said in an interview.
"My goal is to attract all the people I did in 2014, plus (376) plus one. I'm trying to do everything I did and other things that I didn't. I'm trying to make sure I'm not wasting any moment," he said.
Gonzales said he will win because voters are satisfied with the deputies' performance under his watch. He said citizen complaints against deputies are low and clearance rates are high, which means deputies solve cases.
"The citizens are satisfied with the professionalism in the department," Gonzales said. "They want law enforcement services, and we provide the highest level of services."
Both Gonzales and Stanley have military backgrounds and worked through the Sheriff's Office ranks for 20 years. Both started on patrol and retired as captains.
Since leaving the Sheriff's Office, Stanley has been a police chief for the Gallup, Isleta and the Jicarilla police departments.
Gonzales was appointed sheriff in 2009 by the County Commission, lost the 2010 election, then successfully ran for sheriff in 2014.
Williams is an outsider. He's a licensed real estate broker and says he's running to protect "private property owners." How he will do that, he said, depends on what the situation is.
Williams said that, in recent years, he has had confrontations with Albuquerque police officers about property and animal issues, even though he lives in the county. He said frustrations in dealing with Albuquerque police led to his interest in running for sheriff.
"As sheriff, I'll have more power to do things than as a licensed real estate broker," he said.
The winner of the primary will face Republican candidate Lou Golson in the general election. Golson is a former Albuquerque police officer who retired after being seriously injured in the line of duty.
Golson was shot during a traffic stop in January 2015. He returned to work and did administrative tasks after the shooting but ultimately retired. He has been outspoken about having to deal with workers' compensation issues and negotiating medical care with the city.
Golson and Stanley have been critical of some of the department's policies under Gonzales.
Recently, county commissioners voted to hire an auditor to review Sheriff's Office policies and procedures.
Part of the reason for the review is an increase in the number of claims against the department, and deputies were involved in nine shootings in a 4½-month span. Some of those shootings have led to lawsuits.
Gonzales said he welcomes a review, but he will make the final decisions for his department.
"They can't call on anything for me as the sheriff. I'm the executive of the Sheriff's Office. They are the legislative branch for the county," Gonzales said of the commission. "They can't impose anything on the Sheriff's Office. There's a separation of powers. They might be crossing and over-reaching their authority."
Gonzales said that systems are already in place within the Sheriff's Office to review policies and make sure they are aligned with what are considered the "best practices" in law enforcement.
"I'm willing to look at them. And the end of it, this is the thing, we may look at (the policies) and there will be absolutely nothing that is changed. On the other side of it, if there's something there, we'll re-evaluate it," he said.
But Gonzales' opponents in the race have, in particular, questioned the use of cameras under Gonzales. Sheriff's deputies don't wear on-body cameras, but Albuquerque police officers and agencies do use them.
In the wake of an increase in shootings by deputies, some have called on the department to adopt the technology.
"It's an important asset to the department," said Stanley, who as a police chief has had officers in his command use the cameras. "It helps reduce lawsuits, frivolous lawsuits. There's still going to be lawsuits, but when you have a recording of the incident from beginning to end, it shows if there's no wrongdoing by deputies. People think twice before they sue the department."
Gonzales said he's not sold on the effectiveness of on-body cameras and wants to see studies or proof that they help policing before he suggests that deputies use them.
He also said he has questions about the privacy rights of individuals who are filmed with the cameras and whether wearing the cameras for an entire shift exposes a deputy to potential harm like radiation.
Gonzales did say he is in favor of expanding cameras on deputy's dashboards. Currently, the department's DWI officers use dashboard cameras.
But Gonzales said he is planning to expand their use to deputies who patrol freeways and deputies who have been involved in a high number of vehicle pursuits. Then he might possibly roll them out for the rest of field services, he said.
Gonzales said he's confident that the vote will show that people think he's making the best decisions for the county.
"It's an elected office. The people elect the sheriff into office. There's no public oversight," Gonzales said. "I've made that very clear. I tell, whether it be the media, other elected officials, activists, if they want to have oversight of the Sheriff's Office … I encourage you to run for office."

Q: Morphia projection behavior for instance variable with default value I'm not sure if its the way Morphia is designed but here it goes...
Student.class (methods omitted)
@Entity(value = "students", noClassnameStored = true)
public class Student
{
    @Id
    private String id = new ObjectId().toString();
    private String name;
    private String city = "London"; // Default Value
}

NOTE: That I have assigned a DEFAULT value to Instance variable city.
Now the code...
    Student s1 = new Student("James Bond"); // London IS his default city
    ds.save(s1);

    Student s2 = new Student("Jason Bourne");
    s2.setCity("New York");                 // Set a city for Mr. Bourne
    ds.save(s2);

    System.out.println("----- Normal -----");
    List<Student> studentsNormal = ds.createQuery(Student.class).asList();
    for(Student s: studentsNormal)
        System.out.println(s);

    System.out.println("----- Projected -----");
    Query<Student> query = ds.find(Student.class);
    query.retrievedFields(false, "city");

    List<Student> studentsProjected = query.asList();
    for(Student s: studentsProjected)
        System.out.println(s);

And, now the output...
----- Normal -----
Student{id='57337553db4f0f0f10a93941', name='James Bond', city='London'}
Student{id='57337553db4f0f0f10a93942', name='Jason Bourne', city='New York'}
----- Projected -----
Student{id='57337553db4f0f0f10a93941', name='James Bond', city='London'}
Student{id='57337553db4f0f0f10a93942', name='Jason Bourne', city='London'}
Now, 4 questions about the Morphia behaviour...
Q1. For Mr. Bond, I did not change the city and excluded city from the projected list, yet the default value of the city is printed as London. Should'nt this be null?
Q2. For Mr. Bourne, I did change the city to New York but still during the projection, it picked up the default value and showed London. Should'nt this be null as well?
I havent yet seen the Projection.class from Morphia (intend to do so tonight) but it seems that for exclusions, Morphia seems to pick up the default value and does not over-ride with null. Now this becomes a hindrance since I do not have any way to provide default value to my Instance Variables without exposing them to client's...
Q3. Is this Morphia or a MongoD Java Driver behavior/issue?
And the final question...
Q4. Any known workaround for this?
I have googled around but did not come around any solution or explanation so far...
Thanks in advance...
SG

A: When Morphia is reading your documents from the query results, the first thing it does is create a new instance of your entity, Student.  It just invokes the no argument constructor.  There's no magic involved.  The city field is initialized with a value.  Once that's done, Morphia will take each key in the document returned from the database, find that mapped field, and set it.  In your case, there is not city key in the document and so that field is never set by Morphia leaving the initialized value in place.
In general, initializing fields on entities like this is a bad practice.  For every entity loaded from the database, the JVM has to initialize those fields to some value only to overwrite them later.  In cases such as yours where certain fields don't come back in a query result, those values remain after Morphia returns the new instances back to your application.

A Baker's Dozen – 2004 (County)

CDs by Kenny Baker
A Baker's Dozen (2004)
If you've listened to Bill Monroe's bluegrass any time at all, you'll know Kenny Baker's name. One of Monroe's longest tenured sidemen, he has been called the best bluegrass fiddler of all time.
This CD is a reissue of a 1971 LP. The recording studio was a motel room, and his sidemen included "Sammy" Bush, Butch Robins, Ebo Walker and John Kaparakis. If making an instrumental album, you couldn't ask for a better lineup of musicians. Baker's style is renowned, and he was at the height of his game when this was made. While some of the tunes are standards, such as "Ragtime Annie" and "Black Mountain Rag," eight are Baker compositions. His smooth playing makes such pleasurable listening that it's easy to see why his fiddling has been studied by fans for years, trying to incorporate his techniques and stylings into their own play.
From "Sam's Tune" (composed in honor of Sam Bush) to "Hickam County Breakdown" Baker illustrates why he's been one of the best in bluegrass for decades.

Numeric vs Date Standard in Git pkgver
I'd like to see a standard emerge in AUR Git packages, but standards have to work down to the lowest common denominator. Only a small minority of GitHub projects properly tag their releases, so there can be only two LCD standards for Git packages: the Numeric standard, e.g. ("r1581.2b039da") and the Date standard, e.g. ("2014-01-01"). The date standard is much more readable, and actionable, and has the additional benefit of being backwards compatible with older Git packages.
I don't know if any standard can emerge even if we wanted it to, but please allow me to at least add the Date standard to the VCS package guidelines wiki (as opposed to scrubbing it, :).
Using the commit date would be incorrect because it doesn't refer to a specific commit and the dates are not always sequential. It would be even more wrong if it was the build date, as that doesn't refer to anything to do with the version. -- thestinger 21:33, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
it doesn't refer to a specific commit
Neither does "r1581.2b039da" refer to a specific commit without the .git repo cmdline interaction, and it is considered best practice to prune $pkgdir of .git:
find "$pkgdir" -type d -name .git -exec rm -r '{}' +
Can you explain what you mean by "the dates are not always sequential"? The Date standard looks like this:
git log -1 --format="%cd" --date=short | sed "s|-||g"
It displays the latest commit date from the upstream Git repo.
In the edge case of breaking changes occurring upstream in Git repos on the same day, then package maintainers should increment pkgrel. In practice, "2014-01-01" is much more readable and useful than "r1581.2b039da". The readability benefits of "2014-01-01" vs. "r1581.2b039da" should not be underestimated due to edge cases. --Atweiden (talk) 18:39, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
A git commit id certainly refers to a specific commit. I don't know why you think this has anything to do with shipping the VCS repository in the package. The commit date of the most recent commit may be from 20 weeks ago while the earlier commits were from last week. Git does not have a linear history. It's not going to be changed to use a version format where it can go both backwards and forwards with no way of tracing it back to the commit. Readability is worthless if the information isn't meaningful... There are 2 hard requirements: newer revisions must have higher package versions without exceptions, and it must be possible to trace it back to a commit to properly identify and report bugs. -- thestinger 18:53, 24 January 2015
I am quite certain of what a commit ID looks like, e.g. 2d5749d0315a59f4a8bf73ebbe757b227c8c17a3, not r1581.2b039da.
Can you show me where to find "r1581.2b039da" on a GitHub/BitBucket repo? It doesn't exist anywhere that I can see. You need to have the repo locally, then cd into the Git repo and run:
git rev-list --count HEAD
That is work-intensive, and it conflicts with the best practice of pruning AUR packages of .git repos.
I previously used the Wiki-recommended Numeric standard, so it's not like I haven't used it. I switched to the Date standard, updating hundreds of packages to reflect it. Why do you suppose that is?
Readability is worthless if the information isn't meaningful
You'd be hard pressed to convince me that the date "2014-01-01" is somehow *less* semantically meaningful or actionable than "r1581". I say this after maintaining for years, hundreds of Git packages in the AUR. You can tell by grepping `pacman -Q` exactly which AUR git packages are out of date with a two-second visit to GitHub. The Date standard is incredibly actionable and pragmatic not to mention simple and immediately understandable by anyone.
newer revisions must have higher package versions without exceptions
Not a problem: "2014-01-01" < "2014-01-02"
it must be possible to trace it back to a commit to properly identify and report bugs
Given how frequently "stable" Go packages and C packages pull in Git dependencies as part of their build process without specifying a certain commit, I disagree with this proposition. Why would recording the version of acmedaemon as 1.5, when it pulls in Git packages without specifying commit ID, be all that different in bug reports than "2014-01-01"? In both cases, you will not be able to track down the exact cause of the bug by commit. In both cases, you will in all likelihood end up consulting the build date. --Atweiden (talk) 03:32, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
In your scenerio, 2b039da is the short version of the commit hash and does point to a specific commit. As for where you find it on Github, it's listed on the commit log, of course. Just look at the right hand side of the page.
You'd be hard pressed to convince me that the date "2014-01-01" is somehow *less* semantically meaningful or actionable than "r1581".
In this case, human readability really is meaningless. Machine readability is all that matters.
And what happens when the commit after that is dated 2013-12-31? As thestinger pointed out, Git is not linear.
Scimmia (talk) 03:40, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
2b039da is the short version of the commit hash
Can this information be easily compared on GitHub to your local package version to check if it is out of date? The answer is no.
It is not actionable, except by cloning the repo yourself, running the Git command, and then manually scanning the Git log for short versions. It's very work-intensive.
Git is not linear
Neither are stable packages on PyPi: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tackpy/0.9.9a
Pacman views the upgrade of 0.9.9 -> 0.9.9a as a downgrade. See https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python2-tackpy for a real world example of this edge case. Edge cases should be no reason to prevent readers of the wiki to make informed choices about Git packaging standards. --Atweiden (talk) 04:08, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
Yes, the short hash of each commit is listed in the commit log. Also note that the revision count (the "r" number listed first) is also listed at the top of each repo's page.
As for PyPi's versioning scheme, their choice is different than what Arch's vercmp assumes. The packager needs to take this into account, just as all packagers must take upstream's idiosyncrasies into account. I don't see how it's relevant here.
You also never answered my question, what happens when the last commit is dated before the commit previous to it? This question is critical, as it would cause your versioning scheme to go backwards by any and all measures. That makes it unacceptable.
Incorrect.
printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
The output of the above command does not correspond to any piece of information on GitHub.
If PyPi packagers should take edge cases into account for PyPi packages, then they should do the same for Git packages. Edge cases aren't reason enough to scrub a competing standard from the wiki. --Atweiden (talk) 04:23, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
I'm sorry if you can't find this information on GitHub. It's very, very plainly displayed in the places I already pointed you to. If you would take a minute to check instead of just jumping at me, you might find it.
the short hash of each commit is listed in the commit log. Also note that the revision count (the "r" number listed first) is also listed at the top of each repo's page.
This is (partially) incorrect. The short hash of each commit is not listed. What is listed in the commit log is the truncated commit ID.
The revision count point I will retract. It didn't appear to work for my own Git repos, but that was because I ran the command from a Git subrepo (edge case :). The date still has the advantage of being more human readable than r1582. If a package has version 2011-10-22, I will know this project is either unmaintained, or it's been a really long time since I last rebuilt it. All without leaving the terminal. --Atweiden (talk) 07:33, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
It's also very easy to look up or link to commits via the abbreviated commit hashes or proper identifiers produced by git describe. -- thestinger 04:33, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
That has nothing to do with non-linear history. It has to do with an incompatibility between Pacman's version comparison and the one chosen by the project. There are ways of dealing with that, but it has nothing to do with this discussion. -- thestinger 04:24, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
The ideal version is the one produced by git describe, because it's easily understood by humans (last tag, commits since last tag, abbreviated commit), is also understood by the various Git commands and GitHub and is monotonically increasing thanks to the inclusion of the last version and revision count since then. The versions it produces (10-7-g8537989) can be directly used with commands like git show. Unlike the build date, it identifies a unique revision of the project, including the state of any submodules.
The only case where another method should be used is when the project doesn't yet have any tagged release or does the releases in a way that's not very sane. The releases should be tagged on master with additional tags in stable branches for fixes backported to old releases. If this isn't the case, the git describe output needs to be emulated. A date is a poor way of doing that, because it's not connected to a specific point in the revision history.
The only case where the commit date would work is if Git is being used as a crippled centralized version control system. If all commits get created against master (no merging branches or patches) in a centralized repository where the system clock is never moved backwards, it could work... but that's not the reality of non-linear, distributed version control.
A build date is even worse, because it only refers to the local state of time and the local state of the repository. Commits from before that timestamp will often be pushed to the repository.
-- thestinger 04:24, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
A packaging standard must be compatible with the lowest common denominator. A minority of Git repos are properly tagged. The Date works as a standard, tags do not.
The output of the above command shows the date of the most recent commit. If the most recent commit date happens to come before the date of a previous commit, I do understand this is suboptimal, but I consider it an edge case. Even in big projects with contributors in different time zones you will typically see branches merged in with PRs. PRs reset the date to something recent. The linearity of Git is rarely problematic, but I do see where you're coming from (I'm also a happy user of archversion for keeping packages up to date, though archversion works with the Date standard too :) --Atweiden (talk) 04:59, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
The git describe versioning system is the standard defined and used by Git itself. The dashes need to be converted into dots for pkgver and an r may be inserted to make it clearer which part is the revision number. If version-based tags on master are available, this is the only sane way to do it.
Git defaults to fast-forwarding / applying patches without merge commits, as long as there are no conflicts. GitHub will always generate a merge commit but that's not true for anything applied / merged by the developers and then pushed to master. -- thestinger 05:24, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
You've made the claim that most git repos aren't properly tagged, not only now but to me previously. Do you have anything to back that up? IME, the large majority of projects that are in a usable state are either tagged or get tagged as they become stable.
You now have your very own untagged Git repo :).
The majority of Git repos are untagged. If you want to have a standard compatible with the lowest common denominator, by definition you cannot depend on tags being there.
I regularly package Git software in the alpha stages and software maintained by people who are unfamiliar with tagging or aren't bothered to tag. --Atweiden (talk) 07:15, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
As suggested in VCS package guidelines#Fallback, I think the only date that can be used is the build date: for example I've recently used it in a PKGBUILD for a repo without tags or branches, also appending the first 7 characters of the commit hash (the repo is not cloned, so I could only use git-ls-remote). — Kynikos (talk) 03:30, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
Updating a CVS repo
I don't use cvs. How can you describe the pkgver for cvs (for pacman 4.1)?
-- Dracorp (talk) 09:31, 6 April 2013 (UTC)
CVS is not supported in pacman 4.1 like the other VCS tools. You will need to update pkgver manually until CVS support is added.
-- Jstjohn (talk) 22:44, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, but how about mentioning that in the article (as well as giving a download example)? Even if it's not that common anymore.
--Det (talk) 22:39, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
The download example can still be found in /usr/share/pacman/. The next version of the ABS package should update it a bit so the download happens in the prepare function where it belongs. As for pkgver, I think the generic example using date covers that, as there's not a way to get a version number from a CVS repo. Maybe a note to that effect?
-- Scimmia (talk) 07:17, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
That makes the most sense, but it might also be a good idea to rename the "Fallback" section to something like "Fallback / CVS" to make it more obvious even when you're just checking out the table of contents.
But as for ABS, as far as I can tell the last commit was over 8 months ago.
--Det (talk) 05:54, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Hmm, there were a number of patches submitted last month for cleaning up the prototypes, looks like none have been committed yet. I do remember a discussion (IRC maybe?) questioning the proper place for the prototypes, so maybe that's why? Looking at the patches, I was mistaken anyway; they didn't update the darcs or cvs prototypes. Simple enough, I'll send in a patch myself.
--Scimmia (talk) 08:22, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
I use this dirty hack: cvs history -c -a | cut -d' ' -f2 | sort -u | tail -n 1 | sed 's|-||g" ; could probably be improved.

pkgver function for hg based on tags
I recent came across a way with hg to show the most recent tag, as well as the number of commits from this tag (similar to the output of git describe.)
pkgver() {
cd local_repo
hg log -r . --template '{latesttag}.{latesttagdistance}.{node|short}\n'
3.0.1.40.ee9a2543fcd6
Please could this be included in the page.
Garyvdm (talk) 09:03, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
shorten hg version
To prevent long package file name, It is proper to use this format
cd $_repo
_id=$(hg identify -i)
echo $(hg identify -n).${_id:0:4}
--Dlin (talk) 05:30, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
_id=$(cat manifest.uuid 2>/dev/null)

Re [1], I hope I wasn't the straw that broke the camel's back. I still fail to see why the Git section should be that large though, also in comparison to the other sections. -- Alad (talk) 11:26, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
set -o pipefail
This change mentioned set -o ... as one of the reasons for reverting, nevertheless one example using set -o pipefail still remains: VCS_package_guidelines#Git (the last example in that section). -- Lahwaacz (talk) 17:41, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
Guidelines on updating version numbers
There are a few version control AUR packages out there which use the correct combined format of release and git commit. However, sometimes the maintainers refuse to update the default pkgver upon new releases of the software, stating that it's unnecessary since it's updated automatically during installation anyway. While this is true, I personally feel it should still be the maintainer's responsibility to update the default pkgver upon actual releases (not individual commits) as otherwise a user will never receive an automatic update and instead has to force-reinstall all(!) such packages regularly.
Should we add this to the guidelines or how do others feel about this?
—This unsigned comment is by Airblader (talk) 09:51, 10 September 2015. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!
There's no official update mechanism for AUR packages, so this argument only applies to those using unofficial AUR helpers. Otherwise there's soname bumps; if the package is a library, then pkgver should likely be updated. If it is a library the package depends on, I don't know of a reliable way as pkgrel is stuck to 1 on VCS packages. After all, a soname bump could happen between releases or even commits. -- Alad (talk) 11:00, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
If you're using a VCS package, you should be paying attention to what is happening upstream and choose when you rebuild the package. Managing them the same way as release packages makes no sense.

A buyer agent is one who acts on the behalf of the buyer in a capacity known in Florida as a "single agent". This means the agent represents the buyer as a client, not just a customer, and has fiduciary duties to said client. Using a single agent is the only way a consumer is guaranteed loyalty in a real estate transaction in the State of Florida.
Buyer Agents have 100% loyalty to the buyer from the onset of the relationship through the closing.
At True Real Estate it's our mission to represent the best interests of the buyer, which means we are focused on you, the buyer, from initial search and evaluation of properties to your closing on your dream home or investment. Buyer Agents, also referred to as Buyer Representatives or Buyer Brokers, are consumer advocates who always represent the best interests of the buyer in Sarasota area Real Estate. As Buyer Agents for Sarasota area Real Estate, we're on your side 100%, every step of the way. Read why experts agree that Buyers Agents are the best choice!
2. Free and Specialized Service.
Buyer Agents, who represent only 1% of all real estate firms nationwide, are true specialists in the buying process, and in Florida, our services are free to buyers.
In the past, all real estate agents represented sellers, and home buyers had to fend for themselves. Today, some real estate agents, such as our team of REALTORS® at True Real Estate, have chosen to advocate solely for buyers, giving buyers a chance to have their own professional and highly skilled representation.
3. No Conflict of Interest.
Buyer Agents never have a conflict of interest between you and a seller.
When you work with traditional real estate agents, you run the risk that they might also be representing the seller, leading to conflict of interest which most likely won't benefit you, the buyer. Meanwhile, we spend our days focused on the needs, objectives, and issues of buyers.
4. Searches Tailored to You.
Buyer Agents will show you any listing from any seller with complete candor – including For Sale by Owner, REO / bank-owned / foreclosures, and short sales.
While traditional agents might be tempted to steer you toward a specific home or listing that belongs to one of their sellers, we never face that conundrum, and only show you properties that are ideal for you. Since we are constantly reviewing all the real estate listings available (from companies, individuals and organizations), we know the real estate market better than most.
Buyer Agents, who assist buyers in property valuations, can be completely candid about any property, making it their job to point out negatives as well as positives to help you make a fully informed decision.
When we take pictures of a property to show you, we don't photoshop them for you. We want you to see the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of every property — so you won't have any surprises later.
Buyer Agents, who only represent the buyer's side in real estate transactions, are especially trained and skilled in negotiating the best contract, terms and price for you, the buyer.
As Sarasota area Buyers Agents, we always work to get the best price and terms for you, the buyer, not for the seller. This may not be true of traditional agents who represent both buyers and sellers.
Perhaps most importantly, Buyer Agents give today's home buying consumers the high quality of service, advocacy, and information that you truly deserve. Read more below about our services here at True Real Estate.
At True Real Estate, we're experts on the home buying process, and we're ready to walk you through the process, step by step. We save time for you, when possible, by previewing homes for sale. We do all your legwork, searching the MLS; researching a property's history, the tax and insurance estimates; exploring the surrounding neighborhood; and inspecting related issues that may affect your purchase.
If you are buying a home or real estate investment in the Sarasota, FL area, we will help you structure your offer and we will present your offer to the seller on your behalf. Every step of the way, we work closely with you to negotiate the terms of the contract, set-up inspections, assist in the procurement of loans and financial assistance – from initial property searches to closing on your new property.
The nature of our business dictates that we constantly review Sarasota area real estate – a LOT of Sarasota area real estate – gated communities, golf communities, condominiums, luxury estates, townhouses, and more. So when you tell us what type of property you are seeking, we have the best resources and advanced technology to target your requirements. We are extremely familiar with the neighborhoods, schools, beaches and amenities of the Sarasota area, and since we spend our days previewing and reviewing new property listings, home price reductions, and Sarasota area real estate news, we are more than ready to lead you to the property of your dreams on the Gulf Coast of Southwest Florida.
When purchasing real estate in the Sarasota area, you will be doing yourself a favor by working with a TRUE Real Estate Buyer Agent!

Q: Imshow: extent and aspect I'm writing a software system that visualizes slices and projections through a 3D dataset.  I'm using matplotlib and specifically imshow to visualize the image buffers I get back from my analysis code.
Since I'd like to annotate the images with plot axes, I use the extent keyword that imshow supplies to map the image buffer pixel coordinates to a data space coordinate system.
Unfortuantely, matplotlib doesn't know about units.  Say (taking an artificial example) that I want to plot an image with dimensions of 1000 m X 1 km.  In that case the extent would be something like [0, 1000, 0, 1].  Even though the image array is square, since the aspect ratio implied by the extent keyword is 1000, the resulting plot axes also have an aspect ratio of 1000.
Is it possible to force the aspect ratio of the plot while still keeping the automatically generated major tick marks and labels I get by using the extent keyword?

A: You can do it by setting the aspect of the image manually (or by letting it auto-scale to fill up the extent of the figure).
By default, imshow sets the aspect of the plot to 1, as this is often what people want for image data.
In your case, you can do something like:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

grid = np.random.random((10,10))

fig, (ax1, ax2, ax3) = plt.subplots(nrows=3, figsize=(6,10))

ax1.imshow(grid, extent=[0,100,0,1])
ax1.set_title('Default')

ax2.imshow(grid, extent=[0,100,0,1], aspect='auto')
ax2.set_title('Auto-scaled Aspect')

ax3.imshow(grid, extent=[0,100,0,1], aspect=100)
ax3.set_title('Manually Set Aspect')

plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

A: From plt.imshow() official guide, we know that aspect controls the aspect ratio of the axes. Well in my words, the aspect is exactly the ratio of x unit and y unit. Most of the time we want to keep it as 1 since we do not want to distort out figures unintentionally. However, there is indeed cases that we need to specify aspect a value other than 1. The questioner provided a good example that x and y axis may have different physical units. Let's assume that x is in km and y in m. Hence for a 10x10 data, the extent should be [0,10km,0,10m] = [0, 10000m, 0, 10m]. In such case, if we continue to use the default aspect=1, the quality of the figure is really bad. We can hence specify aspect = 1000 to optimize our figure. The following codes illustrate this method.
%matplotlib inline
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
rng=np.random.RandomState(0)
data=rng.randn(10,10)
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 10000, 0, 10], aspect = 1000)

Nevertheless, I think there is an alternative that can meet the questioner's demand. We can just set the extent as [0,10,0,10] and add additional xy axis labels to denote the units. Codes as follows.
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 10, 0, 10])
plt.xlabel('km')
plt.ylabel('m')

To make a correct figure, we should always bear in mind that x_max-x_min = x_res * data.shape[1] and y_max - y_min = y_res * data.shape[0], where extent = [x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max]. By default, aspect = 1, meaning that the unit pixel is square. This default behavior also works fine for x_res and y_res that have different values. Extending the previous example, let's assume that x_res is 1.5 while y_res is 1. Hence extent should equal to [0,15,0,10]. Using the default aspect, we can have rectangular color pixels, whereas the unit pixel is still square!
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 15, 0, 10])
# Or we have similar x_max and y_max but different data.shape, leading to different color pixel res.
data=rng.randn(10,5)
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 5, 0, 5])

The aspect of color pixel is x_res / y_res. setting its aspect to the aspect of unit pixel (i.e. aspect = x_res / y_res = ((x_max - x_min) / data.shape[1]) / ((y_max - y_min) / data.shape[0])) would always give square color pixel. We can change aspect = 1.5 so that x-axis unit is 1.5 times y-axis unit, leading to a square color pixel and square whole figure but rectangular pixel unit. Apparently, it is not normally accepted.
data=rng.randn(10,10)
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 15, 0, 10], aspect = 1.5)

The most undesired case is that set aspect an arbitrary value, like 1.2, which will lead to neither square unit pixels nor square color pixels.
plt.imshow(data, origin = 'lower',  extent = [0, 15, 0, 10], aspect = 1.2)

Long story short, it is always enough to set the correct extent and let the matplotlib do the remaining things for us (even though x_res!=y_res)! Change aspect only when it is a must.

Photo Gallery Drawings Detail Birkenau Death Camp
Found hidden away in a bottle, the Auschwitz Memorial Museum has published sketches drawn by a prisoner at the Birkenau extermination camp. They provide a rare first-hand glimpse at life and death inside. The book is part of the museum's plans to launch a catalogue of 6,000 artworks in its archives.
"The Sketchbook from Auschwitz" includes 32 sketches by an unknown prisoner at Birkenau. They depict detailed scenes from the extermination camp in 1943. Here prisoners are seen arriving by train.
Collections of the Auschwitz Memorial
Families in the death camp were often separated, as depicted in this scene. The recently published sketches are "the only work of art made in Birkenau that depict exterminations," according to Pawel Sawicki, a spokesman for the museum.
A prisoner is seen stepping forward for a roll call. "You can clearly see that the author was determined in presenting the largest number of details," said art historian with the museum and author of the study, Agnieszka Sieradzka, in a statement. "Badges of functionary prisoners, number plates of the trucks, train cars on the ramp as well as block numbers are carefully depicted. The author of the sketchbook hoped that someone would find his work so that it would became a witness to extermination."
The crematorium, where more than a million people were killed, is seen here in the prisoner's sketches.
The publication of the Polish-English book is part of the Auschwitz Memorial Museum's plans to release further material from its archives this year to mark the 70th anniversary of the start of exterminations at Birkenau.


Great advice. You've covered two things I notice a lot–using a ton of #'s in one post and RTing the same link with the same #. You're right, I sometimes don't RT when a link already has every hashtag I would have used anyway. It's redundant. But when I see someone who has used, say, the #MyWANA and #amwriting tags, I'll change it up to something else, like #amediting or #pubtip (for instance). I think it's a great way to get information out there. It's also a great way to introduce our Twitter friends to other people.
A nice Twitter Tuesday snippet, Kristen. I have trouble pinning down the right hashtags for my stuff so I'll try #MyWANA.
My problem: I turn anything into a hashtag. More often than not, it is the only time that hashtag has been used in the past four months. They might be entertaining, but they really aren't putting me in front of new readers.
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much for the great info.
Great advice, especially about changing the hashtags as we RT. It gets the post to a broader audience. Win-win!
Great advice as always. I can't ever seem to think of anything else to say!
I confess. I'm a Hashtag Ho. I have some awesome hashtag helpers, though, and that does make a world of difference. Also, I follow all hashtag helpers and try to go that extra mile for them, as well. Great post, Kristen.
Thanks for the hashtag help, Kristen. Just started learning the Twitter ropes (Twopes?) and I have already made this mistake. Every Tuesday I look forward to your tips, it's what gave me the courage to finally join Twitter. #MyWANA tweeps rock!
I've never been given the option to mess with it. I click retweet and all I get is a confirmation, no curser to backspace. Are you doing a copy/paste instead? Sorry for being dense!
In regular Twitter, you can't change an RT. But you can change it in Tweetdeck. That may be where the confusion lies.
Thank you for clearing up something that I've been ignoring because I didn't understand it. I found all the hashtags very distracting at first. It's nice to know I don't need to use so many.
I try to be a hashtag helper, but I only know of a few writing-related hashtags. Not sure that I'm retweeting effectively because of that.
I was so grateful to see one of my Tweets had been repeated with the addition of a #myWANA tag yesterday. Got a whole bunch of new people over at my blog. So thanks to you and the #myWANA community!
By the way, if you haven't tried out #MyWANA yet stop in, it is an excellent way to meet great writers, great people and find useful information.
Hear hear! Changing hashtags is one of the best things I learned here.
I have had a lot of people ask about that, so I will address next week. That work? ;).
Color me curious. I know I've got some pet peeves with those hashtags, so hearing someone else's opinion will be nice.
Great advice! I thought maybe I wasn't doing my hashtaggin' justice by only using a few key ones instead of tagging LOTS of keywords in one post. Glad to see that my instincts were fine.
Love this! I'm still learning twitter etiquette, so I might be a little guilty. #MyWANA IS the best though!
I will admit to a weakness for including funny hash tags that serve no purpose beyond the humor factor. I'm with Ruby that I often can't think of any useful hash tags to use beyond the same two or three… but perhaps I can learn about more through Hashtag Helpers!
Another lightbulb moment – thanks Kristin.
I needed to hear this. Great advice!
I guess I consider myself a hashtag helper, as I often change tags to try to reach a different audience. Who knew I could do something right on Twitter. (Note: It is not uncommon for me to see that I have inadvertently thanked myself for RT. Duh!
Thanks for making this twit feel less like a twerp.
I appreciate the tap on the shoulder. #thanks!
*hangs head in shame* I just committed this crime. Thanks for calling it to my attention. I'll try not to be a #twitterspambot with #'s.
#hehe This post made me giggle. Too many hashtags take up our valuable 140 spaces anyway.
Well, I'm not a fan of hashtags. I use them in limits and only when I deem them necessary. If I want to say something on MyWANA or reply to someone there I will use the hashtag. I will use it also if I want to RT something from the people I follow, who are not in MyWANA, and I want the MyWANA team to see it.
However, when I retweet others' tweets, I delete the hashtags most of the times.
Why? Because there is no point to flood a particular place with retweets of the same tweet, one under the other and lose other people's tweets. And it's not polite toward the other members too.
Let's take MyWANA for example. Tweet A is tweeted in MyWANA and everybody present that time in MyWANA retweets it with MyWANA hashtag.
MyWANA is suddenly full of the same RT Tweet A and if somebody else says something it gets lost, because Tweet Deck column of MyWANA gets full of Tweet A RTs. I've seen it happened and I was interested in another tweet too, which I lost because the column rolled it down. I had to revert to the twitter.com in order to search for the particular tweet.
Not to mention that the RT will already be seen by a lot of MyWANA members, since we share connections. There is no point on flooding, Tweet A is already on #MyWANA, already RTd a couple of times on MyWANA and the nice thing to do is leave some room for other tweets.
Later, it can be RTd on #MyWANA, but not at the same time for nth times by most present in that moment. And the same goes for other hashtags.
If I see a tweet has been RTd some times on MyWANA, I delete the hashtag and RT it without the MyWANA hashtag. The same I do for other hashtags. RTing has to be considered with the same politeness rules as tweeting.
This is one of the reasons I seriously like TweetDeck. In TweetDeck new style retweets are considered 'duplicate tweets' and are ignored by default. So you only see each tweet once. Removing the hashtags makes it a new tweet. So users on TweetDeck have the opposite problem from users on Twitter.
Not a big fan of #hashtags. Often, I forget them (except for #mywana #ff and #ww). Sometimes, I managed to include #amwriting but more often than not, I don't add them.


February 28, 2015--My local ANG chapter, Delaware's Seashore Chapter, was interviewed earlier this month by Rae Tyson who writes for Delmarvanow. He appeared to be genuinely interested in needlepoint and we enjoyed showing him some of our projects. I think the article covers the subject quite nicely.


Purpose: This demonstration project at Lake Natron Ramsar site , will improve livelihoods and biodiversity conservation through community eco-tourism and supporting natural resource decision making and management. It will raise awareness and address threats posed through water catchment damage, creating a replicable model for ecotourism at wetlands across East Africa. The biodiversity, wetlands, and the livelihoods of local communities at Lake Natron are enhanced and protected, through sustainable community based ecotourism and water catchment management models.

Airport Radar
Weather is bad, aircraft wait around in circles in the sky. Land them before it's too late. Airport Radar (a puzzle-strategy game) gives you the ability to control three entities: the airport, the planes and the weather. While controlling the airport and the planes is well-known, controlling the weather brings a surprising twist. Having control over the frequency of thunderstorms and meteorology in general is a necessary contemporary concern. Typhoons in Japan or snow in Halifax force you to think of local strategies in line with the climate and the capacity of each airport. With beautiful user interface and sound design, Airport Radar is an immersive experience of fear, patience and thinking. The weather forecasts are announced at the beginning of the game and can change everything – through a radio voice that you will have to decode and that will test your knowledge and prejudices about meteorology.
Studio: Looping / @Looping_co

Madurai Meenakshi Temple
The temple city of Madurai is home to the famous Madurai Meenakshi Temple. It is about 460 km from Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu State. Madurai Meenakshi Temple on the banks of Vaigai River dates back to as early as, First Century CE and was patronized by many empires and kingdoms. Vaigai means – put your palm in front. Meenakshi Temple has been mentioned in the 'Tamil Sangha Puranam literature work'. Sangha Puranam mentions the temple-town as Koodal.
How Madurai came into existence:
A legend connects the story of Lord Indra, Lord Shiva and the Pandian king Kulasekaran. Lord Indra had to vacate heaven after the killing of Vritrasur and found peace and solace after worshipping a Shivalingam in the 'Kadambavanam'. He built a small shrine to Lord Shiva. A merchant in Pandian's kingdom discovered the small shrine in the woods of Kadambavanam. The king, after hearing the story, ordered the construction of large temple and a city around it for dwelling. Thus, the city of Madurai came into existence.
Another beautiful story about this temple claims that Lord Shiva known as Sundareswarar was the son-in-law of the ruler and how he created the Vaigai River. His daughter was said to be an incarnation of Parvati.
Three Darshans of Meenakshi:
Meenakshi or Goddess Parvati is said to have given her Darshan three times. Malayadhwaja Pandian and his consort Kanchanamalai is said to have performed Putrakameshti (Yajjna desiring an offspring) and received Meenakshi (one with eyes in the shape and movements like a fish) as their child. Lord Shiva is said to have proclaimed, that he would come down to earth seeking the hand of their daughter and be their son-in-law. Poet Kumaraguruparar is said to have had Darshan of Meenakshi when his literary works were presented to the public. Rous Peter, a collector and in-charge of the temple during the British rule, is said to have been saved by Meenakshi as a small three year-old girl. Rous Peter is said to have made a contribution to the temple in the form of Padukas (stirrups, a footwear) to the Utsavamurthy (image of goddess for procession) made of gold and studded with rubies. This is brought out during the festival of 'Chittirai Thiruvizha'.
Why you need a day's time to see Meenakshi temple?
Plenty of time is needed to see the Meenakshi temple. You will want the architecture to sink in and get a feel of the ambience. The sculpture and paintings are captivating. The events or celebrations in the temple complex are something to cherish for a long time. Blessing from the temple elephant with his trunk, monks with heady incense, the devotees taking procession or many such are likely to leave an indelible mark in your memory. Fridays in this lively temple can be delightful, day or night!
Putting Sundareswarar to bed:
The procession of 'putting Shiva to bed,' an everyday activity at the temple when, Lord Shiva and Parvati end up in the Antahpuram (Night place) and the sight of Aayiram Kaal Mandapam, is totally enchanting at night.
More info on the temple:
Madurai Meenakshi temple complex occupies a total area of 45acres (180000 Sq.m.) and is like a small town in itself. This structure was reconstructed in 12th Century CE, and seen development continuously thereafter. Separate shrines for Meenakshi and Sundareswarar have been built. The complex has four gateways and houses fourteen Gopurams (Towers). The Meenakshi temple also includes deities of Lakshmi, flute playing Krishna, Rukmini, Brahma, Saraswati and many more. Many walls are adorned with paintings and sculptures. Mukuruni Vinayakar is a huge single stone image of Lord Ganesha that was found during the excavation for water tank. This has been installed in the Mantapam. The water tank here is called Pondamaraikulam (Golden lotus pond). The temple complex has five Sabhas (Halls) dedicated to various deities. A huge Nataraja has been housed in one of the Sabhas and the dais is clad with silver. This is fondly referred to as Velly Ambalam. Sri Nataraja here, is in the posture with his right foot in the air contrary to other images elsewhere. "Ayiramkaal Mandapam" (Canopy of thousand pillars) built during 16th Century CE was a contribution of Aryanatha Mudaliyar, the prime minister of Vishwanatha Nayak, a ruler under Vijayanagar Empire. The stone pillars numbering 895 are marvelous works of art. Musical pillars have been erected in the western side of Mandapam and produce musical notes when tapped. In the Chaitramaasa of Tamil calendar, Kalyana Mahotsav for Goddess Meenakshi (Parvati) and Sundareswarar (Lord Shiva) is performed with great pomp and glory and is celebrated as a ten-day event. Some of the festival dates celebrated here include, Pongal in the month of January, Maha Shivaratri in Phalgunamaasa, Chaitramaasa of Tamil Calendar, Navaratri during Ashvayujamaasa and Deepavali during Kartikamaasa.

Sacred Seven Places
Puranas mention seven most sacred Teertha Kshetras or places for pilgrimage, as a means of attaining Moksha. They are said to be: Ayodhya, Mathura, Maya, Kashi, Avanitka, Puri and Dvaravati. Names of some of these places have undergone change. The sacred places are also the equivalents of seven Chakras (Nadis) in one's body. In order to attain Moksha, one has to realize these Chakras in body, beginning at the Muladhar. The Chakras in the body are: Muladhar, Swadhishthan, Manipura, Anahata,Vishuddha, Ajna and Sahasrar.
The Shloka mentioned in Puranas is like this:
Ayodhya Mathura Maya Kasi Kanchi Avantika |
Puri Dvaravati chaiva saptaita moksadayikah ||
Maya mentioned in the Shloka is 'Mayapuri' in reverence to Maya Devi in the present-day Hardwar. Maya Devi is the Adhisthatri (presiding deity) of Haridwar. She is a three-headed and four-armed incarnation of Shakti. Maya or Haridwar corresponds to the Mooladhar Chakra situated at the base of the spine.
You commence your spiritual journey (Teertha Yatra) at Maya (Haridwar), the starting point.
Kanchi or Kanchipuram has been a very ancient 'Teertha Kshetra' and has a number of temples. City of Kanchi has been mentioned in the Shlokas as, Nagareshu Kanchi, meaning Kanchi as best among cities. The temple complex of Kamakshi is an architectural splendour. Kamakshi is said to be the ultimate form of Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari (Goddess Parvati). Kamakshi is said to grant everyone's desire in just a single visit. Kanchi corresponds to the Swadhisthana Chakra situated just below the navel. The presiding deity here is Kamakshi, the goddess of kama or desire. Another important temple here is of Ekamranatha (Ekambaranatha) dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Ayodhya, is another ancient teertha Kshetra, representing the Manipura Chakra (also known as city of jewels). This Chakra can be realized behind the navel (Solar plexus) and associated with warmth. Ayodhya is famous as the birth place of Lord Ram of Tretayuga, who was an Avatar (incarnation) of Lord Vishnu. Ayodhya means, that which cannot be destroyed.
Avantika (present day Ujjain) is related to the vishuddha Chakra that is situated in the throat region near spine. Ujjain is famous for the Jyotirlinga known by the name Mahakaleshwar. The present structure of the temple is said to have been built in 4th or 5th Century CE.
Kashi Kshetra famous for Vishvanatha temple complex is said to represent the Ajna Chakra situated between the eyes. This is also called 'Jnana Chakshu'. It has been a very old tradition to pursue spiritual studies in Varanasi, the other name for Kashi Kshetra.
Dvaravati or Dwarka the submerged city is said to represent the Sahasrara. Dvaravati is described in Puranas as the capital of Lord Krishna. Presently, the town of Dvaravati or Dwarka is situated on the banks of river Gomti. The present Dwarakhadheesh temple in Chalukya style was constructed in 15-16th century. The present Dwarakhadheesh temple is also called the 'Jagat Mandir' (Universal shrine) or 'Trilok Sundar' (most beautiful in all three worlds), is a seven storied structure and appears as if raising above the sea.
Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati – A legend to remember
India is a Puja Room in the house of this great universe. India is blessed with a vibrant cultural heritage and a lineage of scholarly persons. Rishis, saints, ascetics, philosophers and outstanding scholars have taken birth in our country from time to time. Sri Adi Shankaracharya is one of the brightest luminaries in the annals of Hindu philosophy. The lineage of outstanding saint-philosophers adorning the Sri Sharada Peetha of Sringeri has only been kept alive with all grandeur and illumination. Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati, the 34th pontiff in that lineage, was one such outstanding person, who displayed miracles, involuntarily, on several occasions.
Birth of Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati:
Narasimha Shastri (former name of Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati) was born in Sringeri to the devout and pious couple, Smt. Lakshmamma and Sri Gopala Shastri on the Sunday of Ashvayujamas, Bahula Yekadashi, in the Nandananama Samvatsara, October 16, 1892. This brought a lot of happiness and delight to the household. Narasihma Shastri was an ardent devotee, a pious person and a very silent person during childhood days. He showed an inclination towards traditional, spiritual and Vedic studies than academics, though he excelled in both. He was taught by Maha Mahopadhyaya Vellore Subramanya Shastri. He also studied under Maha Mahopadhyaya Sri Virupaksha Shastri during his schooling in Bangalore.
Ascending the Sharada Peetha:
When the Majaraja of Mysore requested young Narasihma Shastry to ascend the Sri Sharada Peetha in Shringeri following the demise of Sri Narasihma Bharati Swamigalu, the former only said: "Do not load me with the administration of Sri Mutt. I will be confined to spiritual pursuit and nothing else."
He was ordained into sainthood on Chaitra Bahula Navami during Paridhavi Samvatsara in April 7, 1912.
When he felt that the affairs of the Mutt required attention, the Jagadguru designated Sri Srinivasa, as his successor and ordained him into sainthood and named him as Sri Abhinava Vidya Tirtha Swami on May 22, 1931. The junior seer was proficient in learning and very soon gave considerable relief to the Jagadguru.
Vijaya Yatra:
Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati did two Vijaya Yatras (Knowledge Expeditions). Between 1924 and 1927, he undertook the first Vijayayatra. Again, between 1938 and 1940, Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati undertook his second Vijayayatra. Only during these knowledge expeditions, Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati was speaking to the people freely. Barring these two knowledge expeditions, Sri Chandrashekhar never used to indulge in ordinary conversations. He was always immersed in meditation.
Miracles:
Once, he went to Devakottai in Chettinadu of Tamil Nadu as part of Vijaya Yatra. The region was suffering from severe drought. Organisers, who had arranged for the visit of the seer, were thinking of shifting the venue solely for the drought conditions prevailing there. However, Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati went there and began reciting the Virata Parva of Mahabharata, along with the Pandits there. The same afternoon, it rained so much for nearly four hours that the organisers appealed to the seer to stop the downpour. The seer ordered for performing the Mangalarati and the rain stopped. By that time, all the small and big ponds and streams were overflowing.
Once, when he was offering worship to Chandramoulishwara, a big cobra came in, causing consternation and fear to devotees assembled. The seer extended a cup filled with milk to the cobra. It consumed all the milk and slithered away.
Videha Mukti:
The Jagadguru decided to liberate himself from the corporal body. On Sunday, September 26, 1954, the No Moon Day (Mahalaya Amavasya) of Bhadrapada Krishna Paksha in Jaya Nama Samvatsara. The anniversary of the day is performed on the Mahalaya Amavasya (No Moon day).
Sharan Navaratri 2018
Pratipada of Ashvayujamasa marks the beginning of Sharadritu, the harbinger of multi-colored, multi-hued, kaleidoscopic series of celebrations popular as "Sharannavaratri". Navaratri is in fact the festival celebrated all over India. The season of harvest is also the reason for a season of new hope and rejuvenation. Sharannavaratri is celebrated as a festival, where Good triumphs over evil. The victory of Durga, a representation of the divine Hindu trinity of Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver and Shiva the destroyer over many demons is one. Rama ending the rule of Ravan is another. Pandavas led by Krishna ending their exile, are but some of the events celebrated. Triumph of Hanuman crossing the ocean known as "Seemollanghan" is also celebrated during Sharannavaratri. This great festival of India has many colourful regional celebrations taking place from Kashmir to Kanyakumari.
Navaratri or Dussera is celebrated as a "Nada Habba" in Karnataka, based on the practices initiated by kings of Vijayanagar Empire. Mysuru being the Heritage Capital of Karnataka is the center of attraction, for tourists from all over the world. Goddess Chamundeshwari is worshipped. Navaratri is of a great significance and tourists gather to watch this spectacular ten day event that culminates on Vijaya Dashami.
Who can forget the hyper local celebrations of Navaratri in individual homes? 'Bombe Habba' or 'Doll festival', as fondly called is the festival keenly looked forward to by all young ones. Planning for Navaratri or Dussera begins soon after Ganesha festival in Bhadrapad. This is an event that kindles everyone's imagination, in planning decorations. The colourful display knows no limits. It could be the faraway Russian doll, Mars rover, parks and great monuments like the palace of Mysore, Vidhana Soudha. The delectable goodies given away to the visiting kids are yet another merry reason for the popularity of the festival.
Sharannavaratri celebrations are begun by setting up the display of dolls on Pratipada. A set of dolls known as "Pattada bombe" are the centre of attraction. These are set up on the top row of the dolls along with many other dolls of gods and goddesses. A 'Kalash', comprising of a Panchapatra with five or nine betel leaves is set up on the right hand side of these dolls. A 'Nandadeep' is lit and continued for ten days. As per individual tradition, practice of Chandi Parayana, Durga Path or Ramayan rendition is performed during these ten days. Special preparations are offered as "Nivedan" to gods every day. Parayan is concluded on the day ten. Another practice is, beginning the celebrations on the day of Moola Nakshatra with Sarasvati Puja.
The waning phase of the Moon during Hindu Bhaadrapada(Telugu/Kannada lunar) month, which falls around September, is called Mahalaya Paksha or Pitru Paksha. A Paksha is of 15 days. Pitru Paksha is extremely important for Hindus, as a fortnight of revering their ancestors and clearing their Karmic debts. Hindus perform Shraddha (Tithi) during this fortnight. Pitru Paksha/Mahalaya Paksha rituals are compulsorily to be done, as per the right procedures, by every Hindu, annually. The general practice is to perform Shraddha based on the Tithi of the day as, Pratipat Shraddh for those who departed on Pratipat. This continues throughout the entire fortnight. A day is dedicated to women who died as Sumangalis. For these, Shraddh is performed on the ninth day of Pitru Paksha. This is known as Avidhava navami. Shraddh is performed on 13th day (Trayodashi) for children who died. Similarly, Shraddha is performed for those who suffered unnatural death on 14th lunar day. This is known as Ghata Chaturdashi. Mahalaya Sarva-Pitru-Tarpana starts with parents and extends to all relatives who have passed away.
It is interesting to learn that the practice of Pitru Paksha got started by Karna of Maha Bharata. Karna reaches Svarga (the heaven) and is happy. When hungry, he asks the gods for food. He is offered jewellery and gold. When he asks them why this he is not given food, they tell him he did not perform any Shraddh and offer food to his ancestors. Karna says he was not aware who his ancestors were. Karna requests for some time grace to go back to earth and perform Shraddha, he is given fifteen days of grace period. This is the time period that coincides with Pitru Paksha ending in Mahalaya Amavasya. Many more references can be studied in the scriptures about the importance of Pitru Paksha.
In the Shraddha performed year on year, the oblations are offered to gods Vasu, Rudra and Aditya through whom a portion goes to the ancestors of three generations; be it father(Pitru)-grandfather(Pitamah)-great grandfather(Prapitamah) or mother(Matru)-mother's mother in law(Matahamahi)-mother in law's mother in law(Prapitamahi). In the Pitru Paksha, all other deceased relatives are also remembered and offered oblations. Even deceased friends are commemorated and offered Tarpan. Even people who are not part of Gotram can offer oblations to their relatives, state the scriptures. In certain cases, the actual dates of demise of their forefathers may not be known to the kartha. In such circumstances, he can offer rituals during the Pitru Paksha, thereby appeasing their souls and obtaining blessings.
Pitru Paksha Shraddh is generally performed in Kshetras that are on the sea-shore and confluence of rivers. The belief is that, divine presence is greater in Kshetras. Pitra Paksha is performed in great masses at Kshetras like Gaya, Gokarna, Rameswaram, Sethukkarai, Varanasi and many others.
The Pitru Paksha rituals greatly relieves the Pitru Dosha(sin). Pitru Dosha causes ill health, misfortunes & lack of peace of mind. Every Hindu with deceased parent(s) must compulsorily perform the Pitru Paksha rituals. The Pitru Paksha/Mahalaya Paksha rituals are extremely important for the wellbeing and long-lasting prosperity of our children and future generations as well. Failing to observe these rituals will lead to Pitru Dosha, thereby resulting in a cascading effect of problems for the future generations.

So this week i decided that i would see what i could do about dieting, I thought this time round (yes i have tried dieting about 100 times in the past!) i would give slim fast a go. i bought a tin of chocolate milkshake as it was half price and some of the slim fast snacks.
I have never been remotely interested in the slim fast diet as i love my food! i am a snacker and thats where my problem is. But with the new job completely settled down now and struggling to find time to actually sit and have a meal, i decided that now was the time to give it a go. i started it on monday morning. i had a shake before i went to work, i had a snack before i started work at 11am and then by the time i had finished my shift and got home at 5pm, i thought i was genuinley going to die! i was so hungry i could eat a horse. I got home, crawled up the stairs and flopped out on my bed and there i stayed all night. Kimmy bought me some dinner up and i gobbled it down. So the next day i decided to do things differently. I had the shake at 10am, so it was a little later than the day before, i went off to work and i had a meal bar at 1.15pm, just before my shift started then when i finished and got home by 7pm, my dinner was ready and i ate it. but i never felt like i was dying of starvation, as the days have gone on, i am getting used to the diet. I even havent been tempted to stray and pinch tillys sweets or have a fattening evening meal.

The Gospel is Not a Way of Life
gcbcmn
A r ecent Star Tribune article sadly reported that many Minnesota "mainline" churches are losing membership and closing their doors. In so doing, "a way of life" comes to an end. The problem is that years ago these churches reduced the gospel merely to "a way of life."
The truth is that the Christian faith is a historical faith. Without the historical death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Christianity does not exist. Pastor and theologian J. Gresham Machen, who fought hard to preserve the gospel, wrote nearly one hundred years ago: "If religion be made independent of history there is no such thing as a gospel. A gospel independent of history," he goes on to say, "is a contradiction in terms."
When Saint Paul recounts the message that he delivered to the Corinthians, he does not say he gave them an idea to ponder, rules to follow, values to promote, rights to defend, happiness to spread, or love to embrace. He says he gave them history to receive (1 Cor 15:1-2). Again, Machen says it well: "All the ideas of Christianity might be discovered in some other religion, yet there would be in that other religion no Christianity. For Christianity depends, not upon a complex of ideas, but upon the narration of an event."
You hear of Judeo-Christian values. You hear of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. And yet as good as Judeo-Christian values and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are for peace, justice, and human dignity, let us not confuse values, rights, ideas, rules, love and "a way of life" with the gospel.
The gospel is an announcement of news—good news. News of information about something that has happened to someone in history: "Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that he was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures" (1 Cor 15:3-4). Contemporary to Machen, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, fighting his own battles in Germany, sums it up well: The cross is real; the resurrection is real; or there is no Christianity.
While some churches have denied the historic reality of the death and/or resurrection of Jesus, some have not. Rather, some "mainline" churches have denied doctrine. Jesus died and rose is history. Jesus died and rose for our sins is doctrine. Therefore, if you abandon the history and doctrine that "Jesus died and rose for our sins," you abandon the gospel, thereby making the gospel merely "a way of life."
