Dictionary of Classical Myth and Religion
July 27, 2009 by Roy Johnson
comprehensive A to Z reference to the classical world
This Dictionary of Classical Myth and Religionis a serious reference book providing invaluable information not only on Greek and Roman mythologies but also on religion in the Graeco-Roman world, including both Judaism and Christianity. It runs from Abaris, legendary devotee of Apollo, through to Zoroaster (who I didn't realise was the Greek form of the Iranian Zarathrustra). Many of the entries are the length of mini essays. The compilation includes both Greek mythology and Roman festivals, religious places, gods, deities, divination, astrology, and magic. There are also entries on Egyptian religion, Christian beliefs, Homer, Judaism, magic, and river gods.
So, in a typical entry you are given multiple interpretations and sources. Electra for instance is daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra and sister of Orestes, but she is also alternatively daughter of Atlas and Pleione, mother by Zeus of Dardanus and Iasion.
You can also look up classical notions such as the polis, votive offerings, and hubris ('intentionally dishonouring behaviour' – not 'pride or over-confidence') .
Iliona, in mythology, eldest daughter of Priam and Hecuba. Wife of Polymestor (see HECUBA), she saved the life of Polydorus in a variant version by passing him off as her son, Polymestor thus murdering his own child.
(Virgil, Aeneid 1. 653-4)
The main text is supplemented by an important introductory essay providing
overviews of mythology, religious pluralism in the ancient world, and the
reception of myths from antiquity to the present.
This is a serious, heavyweight, and comprehensive work of reference. It also contains maps, lists of genealogical tables, a thematic index, and an extensive bibliography. An ideal resource for students and teachers of ancient history and religion and anyone interested in the ancient world.

Sewer Division
The Town of Auburn Sewer Division operates under an enterprise fund financial structure, therefore, the Division is financially self-sustaining, raising revenues through usage fees, connection fees, and state sewer relief funding when available. Operating costs have continued to increase mainly due to the annual assessment charged by the Upper Blackstone Water Pollution Abatement District (UBWPAD).
The Town of Auburn is a collection system only. All sewerage from the Town is transported to the UPWPAD treatment plant in Millbury via the twelve pump and ejector stations in the Town. There are approximately eighty-four miles of sewer lines in the Town of Auburn, with approximately 85% of the Town having sewer service available.
If the office is closed and you have an emergency and need to speak to someone in the department immediately, please call the Auburn Police Department at 508-832-7777 and they will page the on-call person to your location. The Sewer Division has a person on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Syrian Electronic Army Targeted President Obama's website, Twitter and Facebook accounts and email account linked to his non-profit activities.
At the time of writing, the donate.barackobama.com was restored and it no longer redirects users to the website of the Syrian Electronic Army.
Once again I remark that Syrian Electronic Army is a structured and fearsome hacking group pro the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad that conducted numerous high profile attacks against media agencies, government organizations and private companies, the last campaign in order of time hit most Qatar websites.
The SEA mission is to defend the President from the attack of enemies especially based on disinformation campaign promoted by Western governments.
It was just the beginning because the Syrian Electronic Army has also taken over another donation page still present on the site and it has posted fake tweets and updates from Obama's Facebook Page and Twitter accounts.
"All the links that Barack Obama account tweeted it and post it on Facebook was redirected to a video showing the truth about Syria" stated the group to Mashable.
At this moment the links posted on President social media accounts had not been fixed.

Q: Link to get one level up in mediawiki In my mediawiki I have one page with the following links:
PageA:
LinkToPageB
LinkToPageC
LinkToPageD
Now, when I am on PageB, is there anything I can do to get a link to get to the next level, in this case, to PageA?
Thanks alot in advance.
Wolfgang

A: One way to do this would be to make PageB a sub-page of PageA. Then PageB would have a link back to PageA at the top of the page.  See the subpages help documentation for more information.  You have to set the variable $wgNamespacesWithSubpages to include whatever namespace you want to use subpages in (like the main namespace for example).  Then you can name your pages:
PageA
PageA/PageB
PageA/PageC
PageA/PageD

and the subpages will have a link back to PageA at the top of the page.

St. Kieran of Saighir was born in Ireland, possibly on Cape Clear Island. Historians disagree on his date of birth, although most sources place him in the fifth or sixth century. His father's name was Laighne, and his mother was Liadain. At that time, the Irish were non-Christians. Many legends exist concerning the events of Kieran's life. One says that when his mother was pregnant with Kieran, she had a dream that a star fell from heaven and came to rest on her. People said this meant the baby she carried would have a special purpose.
When Kieran was a child, he was kind and gentle. He loved animals, and they trusted him. Several of the stories about St. Kieran tell of his ability to tame wild animals, and he is often shown with a badger, a doe, and a fox.
Kieran wanted to learn more about God, so when he was thirty years old he went to Rome, the center of Christianity. He spent several years there, studying. Kieran was baptized a Christian and later ordained a priest. Legends disagree about whether Kieran was ordained a bishop in Rome or later in Ireland. Many stories say that St. Patrick met with Kieran in Rome and commissioned him to return to Ireland and build a monastery. He is known as one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland. One legend tells of St. Patrick giving Kieran a bell that rang for the first time when he reached the sight of a holy well in Saighir, and there he built his church. This became renowned as a sacred place, and many of the ancient Kings of Ossory were buried there.
Legend tells that Kieran had hoped to live a life of solitude, and upon his return to Ossary he dwelt in a cave where he spent much of his time in prayer. As the story goes, he befriended the animals who come to him when they were sick or hurt. People began to hear of his powers of healing. He ministered to the people and soon had a following. Kieran built a monastery in Ossary, and the town of Saighir grew up around it. Kieran served the people as Bishop of Ossory until his death. Kieran is the first person born in Ireland to be canonized a saint.
The ruins of the original church, the well round the fountain, and other holy sites related to St. Kieran can be seen today in Saighir, Ossory, Ireland. In Ireland, his name is spelled Ciaran, pronounced "Kigh-ran" of "Sigh-gear." He is also called St. Kieran the Elder, to distinguish from Saint Kieran of Clonmacnoise.
The Feast of St. Kieran is celebrated on March 5.

For the channel swimming enthusiasts amongst you, we are now heading into that time of year when the training camps are taking place in beautiful locations like Mallorca and Croatia. All the best of luck if you are going. I have always found them hugely enjoyable and a great boost at the very start of the season.
Well of course there is Dover training which I'll be organising again starting the first weekend in May and through to the end of September.
What are your options if you want a little more support?
If you really enjoyed the company of the people you met on your training camp, why not keep the team spirit going and sign-up for one of my masterclasses as a group. The masterclasses are for 6-12 swimmers, which could work very neatly based on how many people attend these training camps. If there are spaces left you could also encourage other friends you know to also join the same group.
If you're not in a group already, let me put you in a group with others who apply directly.
Fortnightly 1 hour Zoom calls. Or if you prefer, 30 minutes on a weekly basis. This is an ideal chance to discuss any challenges you come up against in training - logistical / motivational etc. So much of the content will be led by you, the power of a team can be the difference that makes the difference. I'll be there to answer any questions you have and will also provide practical content on key topics like feeding & packing on the big day (as examples).
If you want a group hypnotherapy session at any point, that can be arranged.
What's not included is individual one to one support. I am able to support this as one-off consultations or hypnotherapy sessions (if that is more appropriate) or part of an Event Preparation package.
The cost is £50 per person per month. There may be some sessions where it would be useful for your support crew to join, there would be no charge for your support crew.
Your swims are likely to be spread out across the season with some of you finished way before others. For this to work well for the whole group I ask that you commit to continuing with the group until the final person has completed their swim. Your experience will be valuable.
PS - see some of you in Croatia!

This group exhibition provides a special opportunity for students and the public to see first hand what these talented artists are making in their studio and professional art lives.
Stan Squirewell, painter, photographer, installation and performance artist, was born in Washington, DC and currently lives and works in New York, NY. His work is multilayered and his subject matter tackles themes such as: race and memory through mythology, sacred geometry and science. He draws his inspiration from theory books, science fiction movies and novels, avant-garde jazz and indigenous storytelling. He is a (2007 MFA) graduate of the Hoffberger School of Painting where he studied with the late, Grace Hartigan. Mr. Squirewell is the first winner of the Rush Philanthropic and Bombay Sapphire Artisan series. He has performed with Nick Cave (SoundSuits) at the National Portrait Gallery and Jefferson Pinder with G-Fine Arts.
Maria Dumlao, a visual artist working in various combined media, including film, video, sound, photography, and installation, was born in the Philippines and immigrated to the USA with her family. She received a BA in Studio Art & Art History from Rutgers College and a MFA in Studio Art at Hunter College-CUNY. Dumlao is currently an Associate Professor at Bucks County Community College. Since moving to Philadelphia in 2009, Dumlao has been involved in artist collectives including Vox Populi, where she is currently an artist member. Her recent work explores individual and collective history as viewed through lenses of history, popular culture, mythic folklore, landscapes, and creatures, and proposes alternatives to the systemic representations ordered by colonial narratives.


The U-15 OPDL Cup finals took place Sunday at the North London Athletic Fields as part of the Ontario Summer Games.
The OPDL Cup, in its second year, is a single-game knockout format, which is intended to introduce another level of intense competition into OPDL.
It is designed to help shape and strengthen the players' response to the kind of environments they will encounter as they progress along the Talented Pathway towards collegiate, professional and national team opportunities.
Following the lead and direction by the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport's "Games Ontario" initiative, Ontario Soccer has re-calibrated entry eligibility into the Ontario Summer Games program to ensure that athletes attending the Ontario Games are the top athletes within a specified age group.
This serves as the initial assessment platform for future athletes in the Canada Games and the Olympic Games.

At Buran Dentistry we want all of our patients to feel great about their smiles! Dental composite bonding is one of the most convenient and most inexpensive ways to repair these imperfections to give you a smile that you can feel great about and show off to everyone around you. Dr. David Buran aims to give all of his patients an aesthetic and cohesive smile, which is why we offer cosmetic bonding and other cosmetic dentistry services to those in Acworth and Cobb County.
Composite bonding is performed with a tooth-colored composite resin that is placed in the crack, gap, or chipped area of the tooth. Before the resin is applied to the tooth, it is prepared by filing a small part of the surface of the tooth to give the resin something to latch on to. Each layer is hardened before a new layer is applied in order for the restoration to be strong and to allow us to control the thickness and shape so that it matches your smile perfectly. Once all of the layers have hardened, we will file the restoration into the desired shape and then polish it to give a natural look. After the procedure, you won't be able to tell where the restoration ends and your natural tooth begins!
Quick procedure – Most composite bonding procedures can be completed during one visit, depending on how many teeth are being repaired. Many other cosmetic dentistry procedures require an impression of the tooth to be taken, where the impression is then sent to another office for the restoration to be created, requiring another appointment for the restoration to be applied.
Affordable – Because the procedure can be finished in one appointment, doesn't require anything to be sent out of the office, and is non-invasive, it is one of the most affordable ways to repair and rejuvenate your smile.
Minor filing – Almost all cosmetic dentistry procedures require at least some filing in order to prepare the tooth for the restoration, but with composite bonding, the tooth only needs the surface to be rough enough for the resin to attach.
Composite bonding can repair almost any minor imperfections such as cracks, chips, gaps, and discoloration to give you the perfect smile you have always wanted and have always deserved. Receive the quality dental care you need and deserve. By combining a calm atmosphere with modern technology, you'll discover an office where quality dental services are the focus of commitment. Feel comfortable and secure the moment you walk in the front door, knowing that Dr. Buran provides a state-of-the art facility, offering you the latest and most advanced dental services available. If you would like to know more about dental composite bonding, or to schedule a consultation, please contact our office today!

Please find below the papers regarding the new merger between the NGU/NLCGA.
A merger between the Northamptonshire Golf Union and the Northamptonshire Ladies County Golf Association is a step closer after the two organisations set out their proposals to all the county clubs.
The NGU and NLCGA, who currently just look after men's and ladies amateur golf respectively in this county, believe a new all-inclusive body will be a huge benefit to all golfers within Northamptonshire.
With additional funding opportunities available from England Golf, who are keen to bring all men's and ladies county golf organisations together, Northants are one of the forerunners in the merger.
NGU President Dave Foley said: "There has been a period of consultation between ourselves and the clubs, so that any queries raised at their respective AGM's have been answered."


My Papa Norman - the greatest Grandpa ever to live - always used to say that to me. He said it's something his Grandpa used to tell him. I sort of understood it, but thought it was a little counter-intuitive: how are you supposed to sit down and wait if you're in a hurry? The past couple weeks, however, that little Papa Norman-ism has taken on a whole new meaning...one that I understand on a new and profoundly deeper level.
We're a crazed, busy society for the most part, and nothing makes you sit up and take notice of how busy we are like returning from a relaxing vacation. I spent three weeks in Nebraska and Colorado in July and August, and returned from that vacation with an unsettling sense of how much I've been sucked into the rat race of urban life. I'm a very adaptable person and think I could live just about anywhere I had or wanted to. But the mountains of Colorado and the Boulder area spoke to me in a way that only one other place has before (Ireland). They didn't speak to me in a whisper...they spoke to me in a loud, drill sergeant voice (much like my Papa would have used in the Marines, although he wasn't a drill sergeant) to say "You must, for the good of your soul and to live your true life, find a way to move here!" Yes, the mountains of Colorado are pulling at my heart and soul with as much force as the gravity between the Earth and the Moon.
Usually when I return from vacation, I feel a sense of calm and joy to be back home. I've loved D.C and northern Virginia in the 17 years I've lived here, and always thought this is where I would stay. But upon returning from this vacation, for the first time ever, I had the feeling of "I'm done with this place." Done with the competitive chaos. Done with the politics and suited-up Type A personalities who saturate this area. Done with only feeling connected to nature on the weekends.
But recognizing that I'm not in a position to just drop everything and move to Boulder, I decided I need to set about implementing a path that will get me there. In the meantime, however, I still need to live here, still need to work, still need to somehow thrive in the chaos.
On the drive back from Nebraska I was listening to my usual podcasts and one was on the topic of Zone 2 heart rate training. This is a topic that I know all too well (see my prior post on periodization), but for those of you who aren't familiar with the concept, here's a simple explanation.
Whenever you're doing any type of physical activity, your body is primarily burning one of two types of fuels for energy: fat or carbohydrates. Your carbohydrate stores are limited and break down quickly, whereas your fat stores are significantly more replete and break down slowly. Theoretically, even a skinny person with relatively low body fat has enough fat stores for days of energy.
Because your carbohydrate stores are limited, an endurance athlete cannot realistically complete an endurance event by burning just carbohydrates. Instead, the endurance athlete needs to train the body to burn primarily fat, for longer, sustained energy release. This type of training is accomplished by training in your aerobic heart rate zone, which will teach your body to burn more fats than carbohydrates. Thus, heart rate zone training focuses on determining your aerobic zones (where your body is burning primarily fats) versus your anaerobic zones (where you body is burning primarily carbohydrates and producing lactic acid - the painful burning you feel in your muscles after shorts bursts of hard efforts).
Zone 1: 50-60% of your maximum heart rate. Base aerobic zone that is typically used for warm-ups and is a pace where you can easily hold a conversation.
Zone 2: 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. Aerobic training zone where you can exercise comfortably at this pace and still hold a conversation.
Zone 3: 70-80% of your maximum heart rate. There is debate over whether this is still an aerobic zone or is an aerobic/anerobic combination. This is a more challenging pace and isn't typically used for training, with the thought that it "confuses" your body as to whether it should be using fats or carbs.
Zone 4: 80-90% of your maximum heart rate. This is the first aerobic zone, at which point your body begins to lack in oxygen and primarily use carbs rather than fats. You can only spit out a few words at this pace.
Zone 5: 90-100% of your maximum heart rate where you'll be gasping for air after just a few seconds.
The idea behind calculating your heart rate zones is to teach you to train predominantly in the aerobic Zone 2, so that your body learns how to burn fat more efficiently to keep you going for longer periods of time. In other words, by training your body at this Zone 2 pace, you develop better endurance. Moreover (and somewhat contrary to what you would think), training at this slower Zone 2 pace actually helps you become faster. Thus, your body not only become more efficient at burning your primary energy source for endurance, but you also become faster and, consequently, can run a quicker pace at the same lower heart rate. Don't believe me? Then check out the story of arguably one of the best Ironman champions in history, Mark Allen. By training in Zone 2, Mark Allen went from running an 8:15 minute/mile pace, to a 5:20 minute/mile pace in a matter of weeks...all while still functioning in that easy-going, fat-burning Zone 2.
So what on Earth does this have to do with functioning in a fast-paced urban setting and me trying to figure out a game plan for moving to Boulder? Everything.
Quite simply, this concept of slowing down to become faster and more efficient translates just as easy to your mind as it does to your body.
It seems that we think the faster we can go each day, the quicker we can plough through our never-ending "inbox" of things to do, and the happier, more fulfilled, more productive we'll feel. But does that really work? Is what you're doing really working for you? Does your inbox ever empty? Sure, there are times when you have specific deadlines that must be met, where once they are, you feel that sense of accomplishment and completeness. But those days likely are the minority. For most days, your schedule consists of little "goals" that you feel must be accomplished: walk the dog; workout; get ready for work; commute to work; work; commute home; do laundry; fix dinner; feed the kids; do dishes; pack lunches for tomorrow; walk the dog; go to bed; get up & repeat. Then somewhere in the midst of all that hurrying around, you also have to find time to pay the bills, see your friends, spend time with your family, clean the rest of the house, run errands and, oh yes, just sit and relax.
Unfortunately, it's that last bit - the relaxation - that often gets kicked to the curb (along with other self-maintenance "luxuries" like working out).
But what I'm here to tell you is that my Papa Norman was right all along: just sit down and wait 'til your hurry is over, because before you know it, your life will be over. What you need to understand is that your "life" isn't your commute, your house chores, or even your job. Your life is what happens in between all the self- and society-imposed obligations. Your life is what happens in the seconds and space between all that...when you're not looking. So the trick is this: teach your mind to see the space in between. Teach your mind to slow down time. In doing so, you will find that precious gift of time, along with peace, happiness, and love.
It's no secret that our stressed out lifestyles are killing us. So stop accepting that. Stop thinking there's nothing you can do to change that. Stop treating yourself like you're just another burnt-out, typical American.
Start slowing down. Start training your mind to function in Mental Zone 2.
Think of it this way: if an athlete tried to go out and do a marathon or an Ironman at a blistering Zone 4 or 5 pace, she wouldn't last more than a few miles. If she tried to push through that burning pain of lactic acid building up in her muscles, she quite likely could cause a heart attack, collapse, and die. Best case scenario, she'd just pass out or fall to the ground. Athletes know better than to do this. So why can't we, as normal, every-day humans, know better than to do this on a daily basis?
You may think you're winning your race by functioning in Mental Zone 4 or 5 every day just because you're still waking up every day. You think this pace is sustainable simply because it allows you to keep slugging through each day. Truth be told though, the race of life obviously (and hopefully) is vastly longer than any marathon or Ironman. So the fact that up until this point in your life you've managed to function at Mental Zone 4 or 5, really only means that by comparison, you're only a few feet or maybe mile past the start line. Trust me, your breakneck pace is catching up with you. You will collapse in just a few miles...and it will be ugly.
I've said it before and, indeed, the entire theme of this blog, is that life is an endurance event. Let go, right now, of any notion that you'll be able to get through this endurance event by continuing to function at Mental Zone 4 or 5. If you refuse to let go of that notion, then you will fall well short of your finish line. By that I mean, what should be a long and happy life for you, will be dramatically cut short by precious years.
Since returning from vacation, I set out to start meditating. It's been on my "to-do" list for quite a while now. But given my burning compulsion to make some dramatic changes in my life, I finally realized that the only way to do that was to slow down and open myself up.
I started by downloading an online course from MIndBodyGreen by vegan Ultraman Rich Roll called The Art of Living With Purpose. If you're not familiar with Rich Roll's life-transforming story, I highly encourage you to check out his website, podcasts, and book, Finding Ultra. The dude will inspire the hell out of you...seriously.
His online course is all about how to set goals and achieve them. Perfect for a Type-A, goal-driven person like myself, right? Well, his approach is a little more holistic than just writing down some goals on a piece of paper and carving out time every day to devote to them. Yes, his course starts with the "assignment" of meditating twice a day for 20 minutes for 30 days, and journaling for 20 minutes once a day, by hand (not computer). Ideally, you do your journaling right after one of your meditation sessions when your mind is more free. You can journal about anything and everything. Just let the words and emotions flow.
I can hear you now: that's dumb. That'll never work. My mind is too busy. I can't mediate. This is crap. And journaling? Who has time for that? I'm going back to how I normally set and achieve my goals.
Well just hear me out. I was right there with you. My head is as twirling as the spin cycle in the washing machine. I'm sure yours is too. But like training your heart to slow down in heart rate zone training, you also have to train your mind to slow down. Yes, it's really true: your brain is a muscle that you have to train. If you'd been eating McDonalds every day, living an unhealthy lifestyle, and filling your body with crap, you wouldn't expect your heart to be able to go out and run a marathon, let alone a 5k, with no training would you? So why do you expect more immediate results from your brain?
I took my task to heart, put faith in the process, and began meditating twice a day. It's not easy by any means and I've only been doing it for a little over a week. I missed a couple days of meditation and journaling, and there were some days where I only meditated once. But that didn't derail me. I was gentle and forgiving with myself and just started anew the next day. Mediation isn't about perfection.
My mind still wanders during meditation, but that's ok. Again, training yourself to slow down - physically and mentally - takes time. But I'm certainly better than I was when I first started.
Admittedly, it's hard to carve out essentially another hour of my day - 20 minutes of meditation in the morning, followed by 20 minutes of journaling, and then 20 minutes of meditation before bed. Interestingly, however, I haven't felt like my "inbox" has fallen behind. Whatever can be accomplished in my remaining time for that day gets accomplished, and what can't, will wait until tomorrow.
As for how I feel...almost indescribable. I started this journey with the intent of freeing up my mind to ways of developing a game plan for moving to Boulder and, in the process, of opening myself up to great joy and happiness in my every day life. Cosmically, however, another purpose has emerged. My dog, Addie, was diagnosed last week with lymphoma. While I obviously had a day of sadness and many, many tears -- and still have moments of sadness -- I also feel an extreme sense of acceptance. As my Uncle Bud used to say when he was battling cancer, "It is what it is." Another somewhat baffling saying that seems to now have more meaning. I've accepted Addie's diagnosis with a clear head, recognizing that I can only control what's within my power - like her diet, her exercise, how I react to this illness, and what I ultimately decide is in her best interest. I can't control how she'll react to the weekly chemotherapy treatments or how this disease will play out. So we'll just take it a day and a week at a time, while enjoying every precious minute with her.
I know that I wouldn't have embraced this mindset if I hadn't started calming my spastic mind and opening it up to other feelings, emotions, and messages. I feel a sense of calm determination - not just about Addie, but about everything. Each day I now awake without a dread of the looming "to-do" list. I simply wake up, walk and feed Addie, mediate, journal, do some yoga, and start about my day. I feel more efficient - almost as if things are in slow motion like in the movie, the Matrix. Life isn't about trying to get a certain list of things accomplished during the day. It's about just moving through the day, unhurried, yet efficient. It's something you have to experience for yourself to fully believe it.
Believe me, I'm nowhere near living in some zen-like state. But the small amount of meditation and journaling I've been doing has opened my eyes to the vast power of our mind and what lies beneath. We can be guided by something more powerful than our self-made drive to tackle our daily to-do list.
I am beyond excited about the infinite possibilities that will emerge as I slow down my mind. It's even more exciting than the prospect of being able to run better than an 8-minute mile at a Zone 2 pace. It's actually very fortuitous that I'm having to re-start my run training at the same time that I'm starting my mental training. Due to some injuries, I've had to re-start my run program, so I'm slogging away at a very slow Zone 2 pace right now. Yet, I know with time, that pace will improve, my heart will become stronger, and my body more efficient and faster.
Likewise, with time and training, by bringing my mind into more of a Mental Zone 1 or 2 pace, it will become stronger more efficient, and more open.
Many of you probably don't believe me. Many of you may believe me, but think you're somehow different and that this won't work for you. Trust me, you're not different, and trust me, it will work for you. It won't necessarily work within the first day or even the first week. But again - if you're out of shape, you won't go run a 5k within a week's time. Accept the fact that right now, your mind is out of shape. Commit to giving it the time and training it needs to get into shape, just as you'd made the same commitment to get your body into shape.
The Headspace website and app and guided Take 10 Meditation with Andy Puddicombe: This guy is amazing and his website and app are great resources for beginning mediation. I became interested in him through his 10-minute TED talk, which you can watch on YouTube. His app and website have wonderful visual aids, and his Take 10 series - a series of 10-minute guided meditations for 10 days - are an excellent way to break into meditation.
Deepak Chopra: That's right - the man, the myth, the legend - Deepak. Seriously, his stuff is the bomb! His website is a wealth of meditation and wellness information, as well as downloadable guided meditations. I've recently been doing his 21-day meditation experience, which is almost over. You can access meditations in this series for 5 days after they post. But I'm hoping he'll have other series after this. His voice is so calming, and the messages and mantras he delivers with every meditation are so powerful that I find myself repeating them - without even knowing it - throughout my day.
I know many of you will use the excuse (let's call it what it is, it's an excuse) that you don't have time to meditate. Don't elude yourself into thinking that you're any busier than the next person. If this is your excuse, then check out these ways to squeeze meditation into your busy day.
Even more of you will probably cling to your self-limiting story that for some reason, you are unique and you won't be able to mediate or that your problems are too insurmountable for something as silly and simplistic as meditation. But ask yourself what is truly holding you back. Whatever story or facts you're telling yourself isn't the "truth" - it's only the version you choose to see. Ask yourself: is my desire to hold onto whatever is holding me back more powerful than my desire to slow down? A desire or need is only as powerful as you make it. Only you can choose which one you want to give more power to.
Are you meditating? If not, what's holding you back? If you are meditating, what helpful resources or tips can you share?

Text Columnize - Newspaper Style [Without extra code]

						This is a nice way to columnize the text without changing the code or adding extra divs.
						The code will be automaticaly columnized by the CSS. Just add one o these classes:
						.columnize-2 ,
						.columnize-3 ,
						.columnize-4 ,
						.columnize-5 or
						.columnize-6

						Please Note: On <480px resolution, columnize will display only 2 columns max. On <768px resolution, columnize will display only 3 columns max.

						You have no reason to worry, evrything is automaticaly calculated.

Columnize - 2 columns
