Review:

4000mAh Battery is a rarity in under Rs10000 devices. Other 2 devices that packs such a huge one are Xolo Q3000 and Lenovo P780. This can easily last 2 days of moderate to heavy use with Wifi on.Apart from the impressive battery,some other specs are disappointing. It does have a good processor/gpu combination that scores well in benchmarks tests and gives good performance . The display resolution is not that great,480 x 854 pixels on a 5inches screen is not that good to look at. One other area where it performs poorly is the camera – 5MP FIXED FOCUS one. Without the Auto Focus capabilities,expect it to give you a lot of bad images.Memory : This only has 512 MB of Ram,which can be an issue sometimes when multitasking. Out of 4GB internal storage, 1.44G is available for apps & 1.14G is reserved for the user storage. OTG is supported and an OTG cable is included in the box.Overall a budget device aimed at heavy users,but have some issues like i mentioned above. If you don’t mind charging your phone every day before going to sleep,then its better to get other under 10K ,quadcore, 1GB Ram devices with better camera and screen resolution than buying this.

The Gāyatrī Mantra is a highly revered mantra of the Vedic tradition. Just like all the Vedic Mantras Gayatri Mantra is considered not to have an author and like all other mantras is believed to have been revealed to a Brahmarshi, in this case Brahmarshi Vishvamitra. This is a Vedic Sanskrit verse from a hymn of the Rigveda (3.62.10).Gayatri is the name of the Gayatri meter in which the verse/hymn runs. The most interesting aspect of the mantra is that the mantra is considered to be not different from the divine entity that forms the content of the mantra. Thus name of the divine entity contained in the mantra is also called Gayatri. In other words, Gayatri mantra is not just a means of worship but is an object of worship by itself. The word ‘Gayatri’ is used in reference to the Gayatri mantra as an object of worship apart from being used as a reference to the divine entity described in the mantra. It is in this sense of Gayatri Mantra as an object of worship that the Mantra is personified into a goddes.

The Gayatri mantra is one of the oldest and most powerful of Sanskrit mantras. It is believed that by chanting the Gayatri mantra and firmly establishing it in the mind, if you carry on your life and do the work that is ordained for you, your life will be full of happiness.

The word “Gayatri” itself explains the reason for the existence of this mantra. It has its origin in the Sanskrit phrase Gayantam Triyate iti, and refers to that mantra which rescues the chanter from all adverse situations that may lead to mortality.

Goddess Gayatri is also called “Veda-Mata” or the Mother of the Vedas – Rig, Yajur, Saam and Atharva – because it is the very basis of the Vedas. It is the basis, the reality behind the experienced and the cognized universe.

The Gayatri mantra is composed of a metre consisting of 24 syllables – generally arranged in a triplet of eight syllables each. Therefore, this particular meter (tripadhi) is also known as the Gayatri Meter or “Gayatri Chhanda.”

The Mantra

Aum

Bhuh Bhuvah Svah

Tat Savitur Varenyam

Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi

Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat

ॐ भूर्भुवः॒ स्वः ।

तत्स॑वितुर्वरे॑णियं(तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं) ।

भ॒र्गो॑ दे॒वस्य॑ धीमहि। ।

धियो॒ यो नः॑ प्रचो॒दया॑त्॥ ।

The Meaning

“O thou existence Absolute, Creator of the three dimensions, we contemplate upon thy divine light. May He stimulate our intellect and bestow upon us true knowledge.”

Or simply,

“O Divine mother, our hearts are filled with darkness. Please make this darkness distant from us and promote illumination within us.”

Let us take each word of the Gayatri Mantra and try to understand its inherent meaning.

The First Word Om (Aum)

It is also called Pranav because its sound emanates from the Prana (vital vibration), which feels the Universe. The scripture says “Aum Iti Ek Akshara Brahman” (Aum that one syllable is Brahman).

When you pronounce AUM:

A – emerges from the throat, originating in the region of the navel

U – rolls over the tongue

M – ends on the lips

A – waking, U – dreaming, M – sleeping

It is the sum and substance of all the words that can emanate from the human throat. It is the primordial fundamental sound symbolic of the Universal Absolute.

The “Vyahrities”: Bhuh, Bhuvah & Svah

The above three words of the Gayatri, which literally means “past,” “present,” and “future,” are called Vyahrities. Vyahriti is that which gives knowledge of entire cosmos or “ahriti”. The scripture says: “Visheshenh Aahritih sarva viraat, praahlaanam prakashokaranh vyahritih”. Thus, by uttering these three words, the chanter contemplates the Glory of God that illumines the three worlds or the regions of experience.

The Remaining Words

Tat simply means “that” because it defies description through speech or language, the “Ultimate Reality.”

Savitur means “Divine Sun” (the ultimate light of wisdom) not to be confused with the ordinary sun.

Varenium means “adore”

Bhargo means “illumination”

Devasya means “Divine Grace”

Dheemahi means “we contemplate”

Dhi means intellect

Yo means “who”

Nah means “ours”

Prachodayat means “requesting / urging / praying”

The last five words constitute the prayer for final liberation through the awakening of our true intelligence.

Finally, it needs to be mentioned that there are a number of meanings of the three main words of this mantra given in the scriptures:

Various meanings of the words used in the Gayatri Mantra

Mercury found in 44% of fairness creams in India, says CSE study

Toxic metal mercury, which is not allowed to be used in cosmetics in India, is found in 44 per cent of the fairness creams in India, a study by the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has found. It also found chromium and nickel in around fifty per cent of the lipstick samples it tested.

The CSE’s Pollution Monitoring Lab (PML), which did the study, says use of mercury in cosmetics is prohibited in India. But PML found mercury in 44 per cent of the fairness creams it tested. It also found chromium in 50 per cent and nickel in 43 per cent of the lipstick samples which were tested.

The CSE had also tested for lead and cadmium but they were not found in any of the products.

The study also tested samples of anti-ageing creams and lip balms. But it did not find any heavy metal in anti-aging creams and lip balms.

“Mercury is not supposed to be present in cosmetic products. Their mere presence in these products is completely illegal and unlawful,” said CSE’s director general Sunita Narain.

“Additionally, the fact that our lab did not find mercury in 56 per cent of the products tested suggests that the industry has the capacity and wherewithal to clean up their act. Many companies are following the law – what is stopping the others from doing so?” she asked.

Under the Drugs and Cosmetics Acts and Rules of India, mercury, a neurotoxin, is banned for use in cosmetics. Inorganic mercury present in fairness creams can damage kidneys and may cause rashes, skin discolouration and scarring. It can also cause anxiety, depression, psychosis and peripheral neuropathy.

The CSE’s deputy director general Chandra Bhushan, who is also PML’s head, said, “What is coming out very clearly is that this sector has extremely weak regulations and almost no enforcement of whatever laws that exist.”

In an attempt to gauge the safety of the cosmetic products it tested, the CSE compared the levels of heavy metals found with their Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) limits. ADI is the maximum amount of a toxin that a person can be exposed to over a lifetime without any appreciable health risk.

However, since India has not set any limits for ADI of mercury, the CSE compared the amount of mercury in fairness creams with the ADI set by the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The study showed that the whitening creams may contribute up to 71 per cent of the ADI for mercury, depending upon the product and the amount of the fairness cream used.

For the study, the CSE tested 73 cosmetic products of four different categories for heavy metals. Thirty two fairness creams (26 for women and six for men) were tested for mercury. Thirty lipsticks, eight lip balms and three anti-ageing creams were tested for lead, cadmium, chromium and nickel. The samples included both Indian and the international cosmetic brands along with a few herbal products as well.

Learned persons delivering discourses on spiritual matters are quite popular in Maharashtra. There are three types among them. The first type consists of liberated souls or persons who have attained self-realization; the second consists of seekers, studying the spiritual sciences on their path to attain self-realization and the third includes professionals in this field. Shri Maharaj belonged to the first type. These discourses have been delivered by Shri Maharaj for the benefit of those who were keen to lead a spiritually rich life, full of internal happiness and contentment, therein explaining what is a spiritually rich life and simple ways of attaining the same.

Work, Women and Caregiving

Trying to hold onto a job while caring for a family member is a tough juggling act. Caregivers sometimes have to arrive late or leave early, cut back to part-time work, and decline travel or promotions.

For women, these competing responsibilities may prove particularly perilous, a study recently published in the Journal of Applied Gerontology suggests. Women who are caregivers are also significantly less likely to be in the labor force, compared to women who are not caregivers. Yet for men, caregiving has no impact on employment status.

The authors, two professors of social work, unearthed these patterns in national data gathered in 2004 in the Health and Retirement Study. They looked at participants aged 50 to 61, more than 5,100 people, roughly a third of them family caregivers. About 4 percent were caring for a spouse, 15 percent for a grandchild and about 20 percent for a parent; some took care of more than one relative.

(Every study seems to use a different definition of caregiving. In this case, the researchers defined it as caring for parents or grandchildren for at least 100 hours over two years; spousal caregivers had no minimum time requirement.)

As in virtually every other study, women were more likely to care for parents. Seven percent of the total sample assisted with parents’ personal needs, compared to 3.6 percent of men. Close to 16 percent of men helped parents with chores, errands and transportation, while more than 20 percent of women did. Gender differences did not arise much between those caring for spouses or grandchildren.

Gender made a significant difference in employment, however. Most of these middle-aged adults were in the labor force, meaning that they had jobs, were unemployed but looking for work, or had recently taken sick leave or been laid off.

But women were significantly less likely to be in the labor force if they were providing personal care for parents or caring for grandchildren, or if they were caregivers for more than one person. Among men, caregiving had no relationship to employment status.

It’s possible that men’s income supports households, so that they don’t have the option to leave the work force, said Yeonjung Lee, the study’s lead author, who teaches at the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada. It’s also possible that jobs combine more easily with the “instrumental” tasks men tend to assume, like errand-running, than with the personal care women are more apt to provide, like bathing.

Of course, this amounts to one of those correlation-not-causation findings. Based on this data, “I cannot argue that caregiving makes people leave the labor force,” Dr. Lee said. The relationship could work the other way around: women not in the labor force may be more apt to become caregivers. Moreover, the recession might have changed the picture since 2004.

But in forthcoming studies (which we’ll report on, so stay tuned), Dr. Lee has used longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study to determine that caregiving does lead women to withdraw from the work force.

What makes this particularly worrisome is that older women already have higher poverty rates than men. Last year, according to the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey, 11 percent of women over age 65 lived in poverty, compared to 6.6 percent of men. An analysis by the National Women’s Law Center points out that the poverty rate is especially high among women who live alone (nearly 19 percent) and among black, Hispanic or Native American women (over 20 percent).

“In the long term, if women leave the labor force, they are at risk,” Dr. Lee said. “They don’t have enough opportunity to contribute to pensions or save money for the future.”

We can go back and forth about the impact of caregiving, its burdens versus its benefits, both of which researchers have documented. But when it comes to working, “we didn’t see any positive effect of caregiving on employment for women,” Dr. Lee said.

Most Americans regard caregiving as a family responsibility; our government sees it that way, too. But if caregiving pushes people out of the work force during what are often prime earning years, if it depresses their eventual Social Security income and increases the odds of an impoverished old age, particularly for women, that’s a scary prospect — and a greater sacrifice than we can ask individuals to handle alone.

Mothers Exercise during pregnancy May Boost Baby’s Brain

If a woman is physically active during pregnancy, she may boost the development of her unborn child’s brain, according to a heart-tugging new study of expectant mothers and their newborns. The findings bolster a growing scientific consensus that the benefits of exercise can begin to accumulate even before someone is born, means Mothers Exercise during pregnancy May Boost Baby’s Brain

It has long been suspected that a mother-to-be’s activity — or lack of it — affects her unborn offspring, which is not surprising, given how their physiologies intertwine. Past studies have shown, for example, that a baby’s heart rate typically rises in unison with his or her exercising mother’s, as if the child were also working out. As a result, scientists believe, babies born to active mothers tend to have more robust cardiovascular systems from an early age than babies born to mothers who are more sedentary.

Whether gestational exercise similarly shapes an unborn child’s developing brain has been harder to quantify, although recent studies have been suggestive. An experiment presented this month at the Society for Neuroscience’s annual meeting in San Diego, for instance, reported that pregnant rats allowed to run on wheels throughout their pregnancies birthed pups that performed more dexterously in early childhood on a tricky memory test — having to identify unfamiliar objects in a familiar environment — than pups born to sedentary moms. These clever rats retained their cognitive advantage into adulthood (meaning, for rats, weeks later).

But this and similar experiments have involved animals, rather than people. Many of these studies also began comparing the creatures’ cognitive abilities when they were old enough to move about and respond to their world, by which time they potentially might have been shaped as much by their environment as by their time in the womb.

So to minimize these concerns, researchers at the University of Montreal in Canada recently recruited a group of local women who were in their first trimester of pregnancy. At that point, the women were almost identical in terms of lifestyle. All were healthy, young adults. None were athletes. Few had exercised regularly in the past, and none had exercised more than a day or two per week in the past year.

Then the women were randomized either to begin an exercise program, commencing in their second trimester, or to remain sedentary. The women in the exercise group were asked to work out for at least 20 minutes, three times a week, at a moderate intensity, equivalent to about a six or so on a scale of exertion from one to 10. Most of the women walked or jogged.

Every month, for the remainder of each woman’s pregnancy, she would visit the university’s exercise lab, so researchers could monitor her fitness. All of the volunteers, including those in the nonexercise group, also maintained daily activity logs.

After about six months and following the dictates of nature, the women gave birth. All, thankfully, had healthy boys or girls — which the scientists gently requested that the mothers almost immediately bring in for testing.

A baby who participated in the study[/caption]

Within 12 days of birth, in fact, each of the newborns accompanied his or her mother to the lab. There, each baby was fitted with an adorable little cap containing electrodes that monitor electrical activity in the brain, settled in his or her mother’s lap, and soothed to sleep. Researchers then started a sound loop featuring a variety of low, soft sounds that recurred frequently, interspersed occasionally with more jarring, unfamiliar noises, while the baby’s brain activity was recorded.

“We know that baby’s brains respond to these kinds of sounds with a spike” in certain types of brain activity, said Elise Labonte-LeMoyne, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Montreal, who led the study and also presented her findings at the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting. This spike is most pronounced in immature brains, she continued, and diminishes as a newborn’s brain develops and begins processing information more efficiently. “It usually disappears altogether by the time a baby is 4 months old,” she said,

In this case, the relevant brainwave activity soared in response to the novel sounds among the children born to mothers who had remained sedentary during pregnancy. But it was noticeably blunted in the babies whose mothers had exercised. In essence, “their brains were more mature,” Ms. Labonte-LeMoyne said.

How gestational exercise can remodel an unborn child’s brain is not clear, Ms. Labonte-LeMoyne admits, since, unlike circulatory systems, a mother’s brain is not hardwired directly to that of her child. “But we suspect that when mom exercises, she generates a variety of chemicals,” including many related to brain health, which can move into her bloodstream and eventually mingle with the blood of her baby.

But that possibility is only theoretical for now. It is also unclear whether the precocious brain development seen in newborns with active mothers will linger into their later lives. Ms. Labonte-LeMoyne and her colleagues plan to retest the children on various cognitive tests once they are a year old.

But for now, the lesson is clear. “If a woman can be physically active during her pregnancy, she may give her unborn child an advantage, in terms of brain development,” Ms. Labonte-LeMoyne said. And the commitment required can be slight. “We were surprised,” she said, “by how much of an effect we saw” from barely an hour of exercise per week.

American best Clothing Brands in 2013.

America is still producing great clothing brands

Abercrombie and Fitch

For over 100 years they have dedicated to designing and producing the highest quality All-American clothing. However, as they continue to create the coolest clothes, counterfeiters are making cheap knockoffs that are often mistaken for the real deal

Hollister

Only when I came into this store, I understood why my teenager son likes it so much. First, this is nothing like a regular clothing store, I was shocked at the environment, it is designed to look like a BAR. It is very dark, there are seats all over set in a living room style with tables and magazines. I was looking for the drinks, seriously.

American Eagle

I love them a lot of these brands/stores are expensive but their clothes are so fashionable I could spend all day in there. They are also very nice I like a lot of these stores though! I don’t really have an opinion on who is on top but I still really like american eagle! Live in these!

Nike

Nice products. The products are comfortable and nice looking. I think it is the world class brand.

Ed Hardy

Ed Hardy clothes are like AWESOME! The pattern and designs are way too cool! So amazing… Please vote for anyone you like but I suggest ED HARDY because its like the best in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD! Their designs are so unique! But still vote for… ED HARDY CLOTHES because IT ROCKS THE HOUSE!

Adidas

Some people say nike is better that adidas but I think that adidas is more of a winte wear and nike is more of a summer wear. Adidas clothes seem to be thicker and warmer however nike is think and has air holes. Therefore I reccomed nike for sports but ADIDAS deffineltey is for winter and fashion.

Puma

Soft, original, cool, good quality but not expensive!

IceCream

Amazing designs, options and quality… At an affordable price… Like the range
