Dane Piedt's Debut Against Zim Could Spell the End of Imran Tahir's Test CareerAugust 9, 2014
First Test, first ball, first wicket. That's how Dane Piedt will remember Day 1 of the only Test between Zimbabwe and South Africa in Harare. As the only change to the side that beat Sri Lanka 0-1 in a series last month, there wasn't much pressure on him to perform, but there was expectation.
He certainly lived up to that expectation and more. His first ball in Test cricket was flighted and turned, and the spinner himself admits that he tried to make a statement when he came on to bowl. But when one became two, he enjoyed it even more.
I tried to make a statement with my first delivery. I enjoyed my second dismissal more. It was the ideal offspinner's dismissal, through the gate and hit top of off stump. And it was around the wicket, too. I was trying to get the ball to straighten from there.
Having finished as the top wicket-taker in South Africa's four-day domestic competition last year, Piedt's rise to the top has been brisk. The 2013-14 season was his first season as a full franchise cricketer, and he repaid the faith of the selectors. He took 45 wickets at 19.93, including four five-fors and a hat-trick and kept things very tidy with, conceding just 2.50 runs to the over.
That hard work at the domestic level earned him a place in the squad for the series against Sri Lanka. He did not play there, though, as South Africa opted to persist with Imran Tahir, but his returns were dismal. Even on pitches that offered much return, Tahir managed a sparse return of four wickets in two Tests. Piedt already has the same number of scalps, and it's only been one innings.
While South Africa have never quite settled on Tahir as a long-term solution, Piedt's performance in his debut Test against Zimbabwe could spell the end of the import's Test career. Although Tahir still has plenty to offer in the shorter formats of the game, he has lacked consistency in the longer form. With such a statement of debut Test, Tahir's Test career could very much be at an end.
Piedt, although still a rookie, showed much promise already. By the close of play, he had made history. He was only the second South African ever, and the first since readmission, to take a wicket off his first ball in Tests. He's the 19th overall to do it.
What is most exciting about Piedt is his variations and knowing how to use them. He switches between being both attacking and containing, showing maturity far beyond his 24 years and 41 first-class caps.
It's a refreshing and exciting prospect for a South African team that has lacked the substance of a real spinner for a long time.
He's the first South African spinner in a long time who can actually turn the ball and has vowed that he has far more to offer than what he's shown on Day 1 in Zimbabwe.
I have the topspinner and the carom ball, too. I only bowled one carom ball at the back end today because I tried to keep it nice and simple. I wanted to settle into the rhythm of bowling plenty of overs from one side.
He was taught that carom ball—by a 15-year-old kid—when he and a handful of other South Africans went on a spin camp to India back in 2012. Since then, he has learned more, matured more and kept on improving.
One of his favourite phrases is "stealing with the eyes", meaning he is always learning, even if he is just tuning in to watch a Test on TV. If this is what he's learned from watching from afar, just imagine where he could be once he starts watching the best in the world from a front-row seat.

All quotes obtained firsthand from press conferences or from one-on-one interviews by the writer with Dane Piedt.

I love this song!!
Love it!
I always did have a soft spot for weird al. The animation in this video really does this amazing song justice. My favorite part of this entire movie has to be the colonel sanders part. the physics on his mouth just blow me away! All of the things in this movie move very "realistically" and when i say that i don't mean like "as they should" because obviously they don't, but that they look really good doing it. this is especially highlighted in a few scenes such as when the things are falling off the counter and all do the exact opposite of what you would think that they would. that was awesome! overall just an awesome experience!
lol, ahhh drugs
i actually didnt think weird al would take anything but this song proves me wrong
Weird Al.
I've allways been a fan of weird al's parodys and songs. I really LOVE this one!
well played chap
well played indeed.

To Hunt the Grizzled Bear
Working my way along a fast-flowing river, I glimpsed a patch of brown through the trees. Digging at something along the river's edge, there was my grizzly. As a resident hunter, I'd waited eight years before finally drawing a coveted tag in Alberta. It was early May and there were still patches of snow in low-lying shady areas. As quickly as possible I extended the legs on my bipod, lay out in a prone position and centered the crosshairs of my Leupold on his chest. At this time of year it's especially important to ensure that the bear is alone. Sows with cubs are off-limits. Everything looked good. A six-footer, he wasn't an old boar, but for a self-guided hunt and my first-ever grizzly I wasn't going to be too selective. Waiting just long enough to make sure everything was in order I gently squeezed the trigger on my 7 mm Remington Magnum. He collapsed on the spot! I'd like to say that was the end of the tale, but it just ain't so. Much to my surprise, he stood up. A second round was needed to put him down for the count!
Grizzly bear. It's a name that provokes fear, anger, admiration or sympathy. Ursus arctos horribilis - even its scientific designation has a chilling ring. The term fits with the image that grizzly lore presents us; humped back, razor sharp claws, bone crunching jaws, and rage. There are other more benign images as well - the solitary, silver ghost, ambling through alpine meadows with its lazy, pigeon-toed gait; the esteemed symbol of pristine wilderness, eulogized in newspaper articles that are unfortunately more often based on emotion than fact.
Regardless of how we perceive the grizzly, it is still one of the most sought-after game animals, a species that almost every big game hunter yearns to take.
But why? There's no denying the grizzly evokes an emotional response. Just consider the dread most of us feel at the prospect of coming face to face with one on its own turf. Most backcountry users, and yes, even most hunters take extra precautions to avoid a confrontation with the great bear. Then there are those of us who actively hunt or hope to someday hunt this amazing bear.
Grizzly Bear Facts
Over little more than a century, with intense encroachment and rapid habitat loss, not to mention over-hunting, grizzly bears h...

The secret to making our club a success year after year has been and will always be our members who give back. In the beginning, our members volunteered hours to build our first club house (now bowls house), make umbrella tables, make lane numbers and markers, make scoreboards, raise money, clean the green and of course instruct new members on the game. Year after year, the members of the Dartmouth Lawn Bowls Club volunteer their time and expertise. Just think, we would not have successful New Year Levees, barbeques, tournaments, Christmas Parties, instructing new members and regular club play without those who dedicate their time to making us the best club in Atlantic Canada.
An account has been set up at Bluenose Bottle Exchange at 99 Woodlawn Road for refundable recyclables. Let the cashier know the donation is to go to the Dartmouth Lawn Bowls Club and the amount will be recorded into our account. If you do not have room to collect at home a bin will be provided at the club to support this effort for the club.
The club has also set up a library of books and magazines for sale. Donations of books and magazines would be greatly appreciated. One book or two magazines will sell for $1.00.
(DARTMOUTH)- The best of Canadian Junior Lawn Bowls are coming to Dartmouth.
After a 12 year absence from Nova Scotia hosting the top national event in Junior Lawn Bowls, Lawn Bowls Nova Scotia are pleased to announce that the Dartmouth Lawn Bowls Club has been selected by Bowls Canada Boulingin as the host of the 2017 Canadian Junior and Under-25 Championship, to be held July 31-August 7, 2017.
"We're excited at the opportunity to be able to showcase the future stars of our sport," event co-chair Ann Marie Siteman stated after learning of Dartmouth's selection to host the event. "An event like this is an honour to bring back to Nova Scotia with an opportunity for local bowlers and the public to see outstanding play from these top notch Juniors that will not disappoint."
These championships offer many opportunities to the young stars of our sport from around the country. The winners of the Under-25 Men's and Women's Singles will represent Canada at the 2018 World Junior Championship, held in recent years at the Broadbeach Bowls Club in Queensland, Australia. As well, the top four in each of the Junior and Under-25 Singles events will be named to the Youth Developmental Squad of the Canadian National Team.
A host of many national level events since the club was founded in 1982, the Dartmouth Lawn Bowling Club has hosted many major competitions including the Canadian Lawn Bowling Championships. The club most recently hosted the Women's tournament of the Canadian Senior Triples Championship in August 2016. They are the largest club in Nova Scotia with over 130 members playing on the artificial turf green on Pleasant Street, just a few minutes away from downtown Dartmouth.

And now, a short, tweet-based summary of our Commander-in-Chief's actions in the immediate aftermath of today's developing disaster in Ukraine
One ought not fault the president for the brevity of his remarks in the earliest hours of a confusing and fluid crisis. But hundreds of deaths as a result of a (likely deliberately) downed airliner "may" be a terrible tragedy? An NBC analyst ripped the State Department for lagging far behind news reports of 23 American casualties. Minutes later, president said the government was still attempting to determine if any US citizens were aboard. At which point, he quickly pivoted and launched into his regularly-scheduled speech on the pressing need for more domestic spending on infrastructure:

Chakrapani Ullal, renowned Jyotisha Shastri, named by the Indian Council of Astrological Sciences as Jyotisha Kovid and Jyotisha Vachaspati; Los Angeles, California
The Lemurian Scrolls by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami is an inspired account of human evolution, documenting the journey from Satya Yuga to the present Kali Yuga, comprising millions of years. It bears an interesting relationship to ancient mythology and epics including the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. In these and other ancient literatures references are made to human life in subtle light bodies of vastly refined abilities. This indicates that exalted states of human consciousness existed in the distant past. It makes fascinating reading, and I recommend it to anyone who has thoughtfully pondered our origins.
Dee See Mana, Founder, Touch the Earth Foundation, representative of the Hopi Native American tribe of Arizona; Solana Beach, California
Throughout the Hopi creation stories, our art, rituals, the solar and lunar cycles, there is always a reminder of those who have come before and left the knowledge for those to follow, weaving a rich tapestry of origin and humanity together as one spiritual family. Instructions, warnings and prophecy acted out and demonstrated daily in stories, art, songs and rituals serve as a living record of a Divine Ancestry. It is common knowledge, even if unspoken, among all our Indigenous Ancestors of a greater heritage left to us from Lemuria and Mu, the "Mother Land." Our elders have long taught from these ancients who left us messages etched in stone on tablets and carved in special places—the places of the unseen akashic records—of how mankind has a deeper heritage in the Sky Nations and how for thousands upon thousands of years there was order and bounty here on Mother Earth, our true physical home. We are taught, as revealed in Lemurian Scrolls, that we came to the Earth to be of service, to learn deep spiritual lessons and help others do the same. The Ancient Hopis, when viewing the world, look at a universe in balance and bring this balance in concert with other worlds which support our experience here on the Mother Earth, the inner knowing of the Sun as father, and that together we are here to look after the well being of the land and life. Although using different names, Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami has bridged and woven the enlightening truth. Ever patiently a spiritual guide and teacher of Sanatana Dharma, Gurudeva again reveals that "Truth is One, paths are many." This truth from our Ancient Ones reminds us of where our very souls originate, a place where all creation stories are the same, the place where we are all one, where the Holy Ancestors have been with us through our whole development and always came to interface with us in these special times in history, as described so well in Lemurian Scrolls. It was a time when "the ones who walk the Earth were Knowers of the Unknowable and held the Truth in the palms of their hands" throughout all the worlds and stages of development on these Many Beads. This has happened and is most likely still happening today.
Dr. David Frawley, O.M.D., Vedacharya; Director of the American Institute of Vedic Studies; author: Ayurvedic Healing, Astrology of the Seers; co-author, The Yoga of Herbs, Santa Fe, New Mexico
According to Hindu Dharma, consciousness pervades the entire universe. Our own planet Earth is closely connected with other worlds, both physical and astral, and their inhabitants. Lemurian Scrolls weaves a fascinating account of how human life derives from these realms beyond and remains linked to a higher evolutionary purpose. The book discloses deep secrets of how the various worlds and dimensions interrelate, including how to contact the forces and beings of the higher planes. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, reflecting the vision of a rishi, shows the spiritual basis of human evolution and guides us to a new transformation in planetary consciousness. He reveals the occult history of humanity that science has so far failed to discover, offering a radical change in the estimation of our species and its potentials. Lemurian Scrolls will greatly expand the awareness of the reader, putting human history in a cosmic perspective and aiding in the reconciliation of scientific, occult and spiritual knowledge. The book can be used to harmonize New Age insights with ancient wisdom, bringing Hindu Dharma to the forefront of the emerging global age. It certainly provides one of the most innovative views of Hinduism to come out in modern times.
John Grimes, Ph. D, Professor in the Dept. of Religious Studies, Michigan State University; author: Ganapati: Song of the Self, and A Concise Dictionary of Indian Philosophy; East Lansing, Michigan
There are more things in heaven and earth, past and future, than one could ever dream of. In this new groundbreaking book, internationally renowned Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami reveals a subject which at first sight appears obscure and arcane, and explores, elucidates, digests and distills it. If the subject matter was originally ancient and mystical, here is a treatment which is fresh and insightful and most relevant to today's world.
Sri Sri Swami Chidanand Saraswati (Muniji), President, Parmath Niketan; Founder, India Heritage Research Foundation; Rishikesh, India
This divine book, Lemurian Scrolls, records the mystic readings of H.H. Sivaya Subramuniyaswami. As you delve into this sacred text, you will learn invaluable truths regarding the divine origin of life and how souls journeyed to the Earth four million years ago. Further, Gurudeva's beautiful work insightfully reveals the early struggles of man, shining light on both our human and our divine heritage. As one reads, it becomes clearer and clearer how deep our need is for spiritual guidance and inspiration in this age of Kali Yuga. The message of this book is beautiful and uplifting, yet it has been restricted to monks for a quarter of a century. By the grace of H.H. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, this wisdom is now available to seekers around the world. H.H. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami is a wonderful example of service and devotion. His life has been one filled with piety, dedication and commitment. God has bestowed wonderful blessings upon him and his work. Those who are graced to know him or to read his words receive boundless gifts of wisdom, inspiration and spiritual upliftment. I pray to the Lord Almighty that this book will get the widespread attention and praise of which it is worthy.
P. R. Krishna Kumar, M.D., Managing Director, Arya Vaidya Pharmacy; Managing Editor of the Ancient Science of Life; Trustee, Vishwa Hindu Parishad; Managing Trustee, Ayurvedic Trust; Coimbatore, India
Lemurian Scrolls is indeed a work from an enlightened person. Only Gurudeva could have written a book so divine and deep. To all those who are inclined towards spirituality and seeking the Truth, this book is a must. Most revered Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, in his fervent efforts as a panthentheist to delve deep into the fathoms of the unbelievable changes if Sat Yuga (Krita Yuga) cuts across the Pancha Dweep and Sapta Sagaras, was beckoned by the Lord to Jambu Dweep, also known as Lemuria, to receive the bliss of enlightenment of Sat Yuga. The revelation is unique and singular and the narration so captivating and absorbing, giving an insight into the supernatural powers with the wondrous spectacular shows of how the race of Sat Yuga could freely change their bodies from one form to another and move from place to place, lifting themselves in the air, living without food, sleep and all other necessities of life as we see now in this Kali Yuga, solely powered by the spine's powerhouse of muladhara chakra located at the lowest three and one-half rings and transmitted through sahasraradala padma. Indeed, this marvelous book, Lemurian Scrolls, is a gift to mankind to be treasured by people of all ages as coming from the divine spirit of Gurudeva, the greatest explorer to unravel the mysteries of yugas dating back many millions of years, and is a priceless presentation to mankind to reach the Ultimate. The human race should be eternally indebted to Gurudeva for his tireless efforts for the emancipation of mankind and attainment of Ultimate Bliss.

Not since the days of the Theosophical seers Madame Blavatsky and Charles Leadbeater has there been in print such in-depth and detailed reading of the akashic records as is found in the Lemurian Scrolls. Having been fascinated by their work in this area for many years, it was with great delight that I enjoyed reading this great manuscript. And just as their works collectively pointed always to a higher version of mankind's true origins and history than was commonly accepted at the time, so also do the Lemurian Scrolls clearly define man's divine history and destiny. This is the "big picture" that science is looking for. One reads of how Helena Blavatsky would sit open-eyed for hours at a time reading from some invisible volumes held before her gaze, and from these drew all the information that was compiled and later presented as Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine. And then to read of Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami's account of how he received this information is to hear the same story told again of how these things are revealed at intervals when Higher Forces choose certain people through whom to pour this enlightening information. May it be well received by a humanity seeking its spiritual "roots."
Sri Sri Swami Bua Maharaj, Centenarian, Founder and Head, Indo-American Yoga-Vedanta Society, New York; Teacher of Sanatana Dharma in South America and elsewhere; New York
Mystics have pondered over the mystery of this universe from beginningless time and have arrived at different conclusions according to their understanding. The conclusions are divergent because they are arrived at from different angles. It is to be noted that all these are about that great mystery which cannot be known in its totality. Divine wisdom reveals itself to the chosen and deserving souls who become channels of dissemination of that secret knowledge to posterity. Lemurian Scrolls are not ordinary spiralled bunches of some unestablished, unintelligible or unproven hallucinations or imaginative dreams of an individual. They are angelic prophecies retrieved from Lord Subramaniam's Library and revealed to the inner eyes of one of the greatest saints of modern times who read these akashic scripts through his clairvoyance. Such revelations are quite probable and possible according to the wonderful powers of yoga. We are extremely fortunate now to be exposed to these revelations due to the magnanimity of Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, who has decided to put these in print after keeping them within the reach of only his cloistered monks for 25 years. The question whether the planet Earth came into being first or life was existing before bas been answered in this revelation to Gurudeva. During Satya Yuga man migrated from other planets to Earth. Life was not produced out of nothing. Life always existed in one form or other. This is the message of reassurance to the human beings who are now and then threatened with Pralaya, Black Day, End of the World, et al. There are 27 chapters here that narrate the upward evolution of the soul from the time of the advent of man on this planet. Yugas after yugas roll as time marches on and the human spirit, undaunted by new challenges of time, proceeds towards its goal, ably directed by the Gods, the gurus and the doctrine. The importance of developing the yogic power of kundalini is outlined. The divine qualities of foods are emphasized. The need for dispassion and a genuine turn in life is equally stressed. Devotion to guru is highlighted. The supremacy of monastic life is upheld. Spiritual discipline and cultivation of the cardinal virtues of life are exhorted. The ordinary beings are given the chance to know the secrets and mysteries of monasteries by opening the iron doors and creating cleavages in the stone walls. This is the greatness of Gurudeva. The births of temples, formation of monasteries, identification of devas and Mahadevas and the guru-shishya relationship are all explained in detail. The messages are that life is to live, live purposefully and there is no end to life.
M.C. Bhandari, President, Bharat Nirman NRI Foundation; Chairman, Occult Foundation of India; Editor-in-Chief, Mystic India monthly magazine; named Jyotish Ratna by the World Astrological Institute; Calcutta, India
"Cosmos exists, life comes and goes. How does it happen, none of us knows. Who made the stars and who made all these suns? How they affect us, how we take breath? What is that consciousness, where we go after death? What a miraculous creation, what a miraculous mind? Is not all that mystic, should we not them find?" These words appearing in the beginning of each issue of our monthly magazine Mystic India are the perennial questions being asked by humanity from time immemorial. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami of Saiva Siddhanta Church has now made it easy to find answers to them in his new book, Lemurian Scrolls, which he has transcribed from the messages that he has received from the cosmos by his clairvoyant powers. In the mystic world, it is possible to connect one's inner self with the cosmic forces attunable to him and receive as well as perceive happenings of the past, present and future. Sri Subramuniyaswami, attuning himself to his link in the outer world, has found answers to many mysteries of the world. In this book he gives vivid description of how this world, particularly our planet Earth, came into being and how all the systems of health, healing, diet, waters, gases, flowers, fruits, animals and human beings came into existence and got evolved. He also describes gold and jewels and all other matter. He also tells about devas, satgurus, religion, monasteries, priests and everything on Earth on the basis of his cosmic messages. This book indeed is very enlightening, educative and exciting.
Sri Sri Swami Pragyanand, Founder/Patron, Sai Pragya Dham, Pragya Mission International, Pragya Mitra Pariwar and Pragya Yoga Foundation, New Delhi, India; Vishwa Mata Gayatri Trust, Delhi, India
Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami is recognized as a legend, one of the foremost personalities of Hinduism. This book reveals to the readers his inner vision in a lucid and candid transparency presented through clairvoyant siddhis gifted to him by his satguru, Siva Yogaswami. The origin of life in the universe has been forever the greatest mystery and challenge for exploration. Nevertheless, many theories, such as the Darwinian theory of evolution, Yin-Yang, Big Bang, Purusha and Manu, have been advanced and widely accepted. Yet, all remain imperfect, as most suffer from the basic lack of the most important factor—the element of Godliness. It is now established that physical existence is not the ultimate Truth, and a transcendental intelligence, rather wisdom, is inherent in the evolution of the Universe. The present book is a divine effort to clarify the advent of life on Earth and the experience of man on Earth through various yugas. Vivid description of monastic life—admission, training, dietary regimen and Divinity vis-à-vis seasonal changes and illness, discipline and avenues of selfless service to suffering humanity—can easily coax and cajole interest in and envy of a highly advanced Siva-Sakti sadhaka. In this time of transition, this nectar-like book renders a simple and fluent reading of, keeping interest alive until the last word and beyond. ¶It may not be out of context to refer to the scientifically developed theory of Stephen Hawking on how time began and his conclusion that it will never end. Hawking's new theory of "Open Inflation" is widely accepted by scientists but still held in skepticism by the astronomers in his latest investigation of the fraction of a second before the Big Bang, discovering the fuse that detonated the primordial explosion that created the universe 12 billion years ago, hence forming time, space and matter. The theory anticipates important support when an American satellite will be launched in two years time to map the microwave radiation left over by the Big Bang. The universe has a creator and is certainly infinite. ¶Referring back to Lemurian Scrolls, such a book wouldn't be forthcoming if its author did not have communion with the Lord, the almighty Siva. Such a gem of creativity shall be a prized and much-coveted possession of all mankind interested in Self Realization, the ultimate Truth and goal of every mystic. Thus I offer divine endorsement to Lemurian Scrolls and wish a global reading making life more meaningful, effective and enlightening by luminary exposure to the Divine.
Sri Sri Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda, named Saravbhom Sanatan Jagadguru by the World Religious Parliament; Spiritual Head, International Sri Deep Madhavananda Ashram Fellowship; Vienna, Austria
With Lemurian Scrolls, Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami introduces us to an exciting thesis which challenges Western science and the popular belief held in many religions about the origin of man. Contradicting the Darwinistic postulate that human beings have evolved from lesser earthly species, it represents a new view of the evolutionary process: the evolution of souls originated from other planets towards Self Realization. We learn that millions of years ago our progenitors, highly-developed divine souls from several planets of the galaxy, undertook the risk of migrating to Earth where they could complete their unfoldment to the final realization of the Self, willing to undergo the experience of duality which comprehends love and joy as well as stress and pain. In a thrilling journey through time and space the divine visions of Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami lead us through the cycles of the four yugas, describing in a very lively manner the development of consciousness, its descendence into matter as well as its ascendence to enlightenment and liberation. His disclosures about the origins of temples, monastery culture and the master-disciple relationship are in accordance with the tradition of Sanatana Dharma and spiritual scriptures of other religions of the world. Holy adepts preserve the knowledge of our divine origin, abilities and meaning. Though not bound to this planet, they remain here to rescue the souls who have lost their subtle nature and have sunk into the darkness of ignorance. The revelations of Lemurian Scrolls expand our view and understanding of the essential questions mankind has always asked: from where do we come, where will we go, what is the origin and mission of our lives? They ensure us that there exists a divine course of evolution, that we are guided by illustrious and enlightened souls who have helped and guarded us since the beginning of our physical existence and who will lead us eventually to our goal, the complete realization of our Divine Self. The writer rightly hopes that reading of this book would invest the reader with a new vision or outlook on life. He wants the reader to take these scrolls in their totality and make them a living, vital reality of life. I am sure that if the readers adopt this attitude, they will find the scrolls meaningful and delightful.
Dr. Shripad Dattatraya Kulkarni, renowned historian, author of Bhishma, Study of Indian History and Culture (18 volumes), translator of the Vedas; Mumbai, India
The current Sat Yuga has begun. Thus reveals Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, Gurudeva, as he is affectionately called by his millions of followers in over 40 countries of the globe. He is the seer of the Veda, the book of knowledge walking in flesh and blood, mixing amongst us. He has brought to us, stubborn as we are, this message of love and hope for our more secure future. Gurudeva, the siddha, the spiritualist par excellence, declares in no uncertain terms that "Sat Yuga began around 1879 ce when the inhabitants of the Earth were able to light the night with their own devices." What a world-shaking angelic prophecy! ¶Lemuria is a mythical heaven on Earth, Hawaii's Garden Island of Kauai where he has his ashrama on a river bank near the foot of an extinct volcano. There Gurudeva's inner eye has opened on an array of great manuscripts in the inner library of Lord Subramaniam. He read these volumes, and in the sequel these Lemurian Scrolls have seen the light of the day. They record accurately what was revealed to Gurudeva about human origins. In unmistakable terms Gurudeva records the most pregnant revelation, "Human life did not evolve from lesser Earthly species." The early societies had developed an integral vision of life, the harmony between the spiritual and the temporal aspects of life resulting in a wealthy, highly productive, harmonious society. For this to happen, spiritual men and women, spiritual sharing of power had to guide the individual and societal effort. The example of such a society is the Dalai Lama's Tibet where something like one third of the social order was a monastic group which served the spiritual and political needs of the two-thirds family group. Their society remained stable for hundreds and hundreds of years. ¶The Dravidian (Hindu) shastras tell us more or less the same story. This type of society can be ushered in by subordinating the political power to the spiritual one. The fourfold division of society based on aptitude and profession achieved this miracle. It is prophesied that stable and peaceful societies will once again emerge when mankind adopts these wise protocols of the earlier times. Gurudeva is confident that this will happen, for according to him Sat Yuga has begun. ¶Gurudeva, by his revelations, confirms the Puranic account of human origin. The fourfold cycle of yugas, Sat, Treta, Dvapara and Kali, is also what he saw through his inner eye. According to the Puranas, the Kali Yuga covers a span of 432,000 human years. The four yugas together cover 4,320,000 years and this is one cycle. Seventy-one such cycles form one manvantara, and age of man. This works out to 306,720,000 years. Six such manvantaras have so far elapsed from the beginning of this epoch (kalpa) and the seventh manvantara, that of the Vaivasvata, has begun, and seven more such manvantaras have yet to come. ¶These fourteen manvantaras constitute one day of Brahma—the Creator Brahma's life is 100 years. Fifty such years have elapsed. We are now in the first day of the fifty-first year. In figures, that means 306,720,000 (one manvantara) x 14 manvantaras (this is the day of Brahma) x 14 (his night) x 365 (days of the year) x 100 (years). This is the life of the Brahma. This is a mind-boggling figure, projected by Surya Siddhanta. In brief, this is the Puranic conception of the beginninglessness and endlessness of the cosmos. Surprisingly, Gurudeva, who has clairvoyantly read the volumes placed at his disposal by Lord Skanda's private librarian, confirms this universal timeline. ¶The Scrolls give the signs of the advent of the Kali Yuga as, "man kills man,…war and turmoil prevails,… drastic climactic changes occur," and so on. In this way the Scrolls have given in detail the signs of the advent of the other yuga cycles. We are, however, more interested in knowing the signs of the advent of Sat Yuga as from 1879 ce than those of the others. ¶Gurudeva's personality of Godhead is Skanda, the six-faced Deity who looks in all directions, and will thus inspire us all to lead the life of enlightenment, befitting the Sat Yuga in which we live and have our being. For giving us this vision we are all under deep obligation to Gurudeva. I offer my salutations hundred and thousand fold at his lotus feet.
Dr. Vidya Sagar Anand, Hindu statesman in the UK, Chairman of the European Council of Hindu Organisations; London, England
A rishi with tremendous inner spiritual powers attained through life-long meditation and austerities shares with us and posterity divine insights into the origin of humankind on this planet. For the past two centuries, mainly in the West, this subject has been treated superficially, giving, or attempting to give, scholastic and scientific backing to the alleged superiority of Nordic Man. The theories of Darwin and some Western charlatans have helped to create the unsustainable myth that "God has made some of us, and not all of us, in His own image." The scientific mind and the spiritual mind interpret nature and its origins differently. While one, because of its serious limitations and prejudices, sees and perceives the veneer only, the other's vision is more profound, embracing the external and the internal dimensions. Rarely have the twain met. In Lemurian Scrolls, the illustrious Sivaya Subramuniyaswami illuminates with his graceful and penetrating pen the origins, progress and decline of the human race from time immemorial. Rarely in living memory has this eternally intriguing subject been delineated so painstakingly, authoritatively and lucidly. This is an impressive and enlightening document, a modern and revealing purana, deserving of close study in the East and the West.
Pundit Ramesh Tiwari, President General, Edinburgh Dharmic Sabha; Chaguanas, Trinidad & Tobago
This is a masterpiece of dharmic tapestry interwoven with cosmic philosophy which can only come out from such a highly realized soul as Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami. May Lord Siva guide Swamiji to lead us into the Golden Age—Sat Yuga.
Pundit K.N. Navaratnam, M.A.F.A., F.A.A.; Jyotisha Marthand and National Astrologer of Australia; close devotee of Satguru Siva Yogaswami; Sivathondan Center; Hallam, Australia
Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswamigal is a living legend forever—a great visionary like his great satguru, Siva Yogaswamigal, as evidenced by many. On the full-moon day in May 1949, when he received the divine strong slap from his master, Satguru Siva Yogaswamigal, he received the graceful enlightenment and thus the visions. If not, how could he have discovered the long-lost ancient Siva Temple at Hawaii related to the ancient Saint Manikkavasagar Swami, narrated in his Hindu scripture known as Thiruvasagam more than 10,000 years or before? ¶Not to mention that I am a visionary, a strong disciple of Satguru Siva Yogaswamigal, born and bred in his Land of Jaffna, associated with him for more than fifteen years. I had a beautiful vision in the year 1991 in that I saw loving Ganesha carrying Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswamigal on his right shoulder and Gurudeva blessing all of us by his right hand. What more testimony is needed?
Thiru Satkunendran, Assistant Secretary, Sivathondan Nilayam; Toronto, Ontario, Canada
An excellent presentation, interesting to read, easy to understand by any lay person, revealing the long past, present and future of humankind, and the yugas. This rare production of Gurudeva's with his third eye is a must for every Hindu and all those seeking the truth!
Thiru L. Nellaiappan, devotee of Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami of 25 years; Former Joint Director of Industries, Government of Tamil Nadu, India; Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India
Lemurian Scrolls, the spiritual treasure of akashic reading revealed through clairvoyance of my beloved guru, Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, the spiritual head of Kauai Aadheenam, released after two decades of mystic research and input, is one of the holiest of holy unfoldments for the benefit of mankind during this century. Certainly the future will generate valuable debate, discussion, seminars and intense research among scholars and spiritual seekers about the coming into being of the human race in this world, contrary to other evolutionary scientific theories in belief. It is a rare publication, comparing the concept of other beliefs in an invaluable timeline. This may be called a testament to the values of mankind and a guide book to all monasteries.
Dr. Canagasabay M. Pillay, Former Chairman, Mauritius Medical Association; Former President, Hindu Maha Jana Sangham; Former Editor, La Lumière; Former Mayor, Vacoas-Phoenix, Mauritius
The body of scientific knowledge about man's origin is increasing rapidly. Evolution, followed by the Big Bang theory and recent genetic studies situate the arrival of Homo sapiens at 150,000 years ago in East Africa. Far from being doubly wise through a science outlook, man suffers from a spiritual vacuum. Drug addiction and AIDS are threatening to assume pandemic proportions. There is a crying need for a spiritual worldview of our planet's history. Lemurian Scrolls brings this spiritual dimension to the arrival of man on Earth, with Earth being part of the wider universe, rather than an Earth-centered genesis. We are privileged that this book, which was unfolded to Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami in a unique spiritual experience, has been made available to the public. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami is, of course, the ideal person to receive and transmit this spiritual treasure.
Dr. Kadress Pillay, Minister of Education and Human Resource Development; Mauritius
The mode of life depicted is exactly what one would expect to live when one has attained moksha or satchidananda. Only the blessed could have envisioned such a highly divine form of social organization.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) — Brian Levchuk's son is only 2½ years old. Even at such a young age, he's already been briefed about an all too familiar topic: strangers.
Levchuk, of Branford, said, "Stay close to mommy and daddy when we are in the park. Don't wander off. Don't get too far from us and don't talk to strangers."
According to police, that's the message every parent should be sending. Conversations have to be ongoing all the time about safety around strangers.
Chief Gary MacNamara with the Fairfield police department has some important information for parents. First, you want your children to know there's a problem well before they interact with a stranger.
"We often times have conversations around our kids about scenario based safety. What if somebody comes looking for a lost puppy? What if somebody is looking for a lost child? What we want is to have the conversation way before that. You want to establish what a normal day and activity would look like. It's not normal for a car to pull up to a child. It's not normal for an adult to approach a child," MacNamara said.
MacNamara adds that if someone does try to lure and or take your child, they need to do one simple thing.
"Make noise, try to get attention from someone to help you so you can get attention and stop the attack," the chief said. "Another piece of advice, have your child carry a small air horn like this, either in their pocket or in a backpack. This way if they're approached by a stranger and don't feel safe all they have to do [is use the horn] and that will cause attention to the situation."
Also, if you're worried about an area your child has to walk or bike to and from school, MacNamara says walk the route with them and identify any potential problems. "And then provide action steps or discussion that you can have with your children if someone approaches you along the way," he said.
The earlier you give stranger information to your kids, the better off they'll be. "If he wanders off and he sees somebody that he doesn't know, and I don't know that person, he turns back and either runs to his mother and me," Levchuk said.
"Identifying [what is] not normal and then doing the right thing is the successes that we are looking for," MacNamara said.

Hello, Im a beginner developer in Korea. I need an answer about virtual keyboard input.
Below is my game prototype.
What I want to know is how to set the Text of CCLabelTTF that is labeled as 'Entered' after type into the CCTextFieldTTF that is labeled as 'text input' and press Enter key on my virtual keyboard.
My keyboard just disappears when I press the Enter and nothing happens. I just have no idea which callback methods have to be set(override) and called to run:
label->setString( textField->getString() );
I've googled this over 5 hours but no one had questioned about this.

On this day in 1258, a Mongol army sacked Baghdad, and killed the last Abbasid Caliph. Though hardly remembered, it was an event that rocked the Muslim world in its days; the repercussions of which are still felt today.
Hulago Khan, commander of the Mongols in the Middle East and founder of the Persia-based Il-Khanate, was the grandson of Genghis Khan. At its peak, Hulago's kingdom included Iran, Iraq, Kurdistan; and parts of Turkey, Syria, and Jordan.
The sack of Baghdad culminated the initial phase of the Mongol operations into the Middle East; which began with the storming of the Assassin stronghold of Alamut near modern Tehran, and the destruction of that cult, the world's first international terrorist organization. (The English word "Assassin" is derived from the term, "Hashashin"; the name given to the drug-using killers of Alamut!)
Baghdad was then the seat of the Abbassid Caliphate; a secular and religious authority within Islam that dated back to the 9th century. Though schismatic Caliphates existed at the time in Morocco and Egypt; the Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad was the most recognized throughout the world. And though secular power had long been in the hands of Turkish Sultans; the Caliph (which name means "Successor", as in the successor to Mohammed) was still the ultimate religious authority within Islam.
Once the Mongols took Baghdad, one of the largest cities in the world in its day, they put much of the population to the sword.
The last Caliph was put to death. Because many of Hulago's soldiers were, themselves, Muslims; and because it was sacrilege to shed the Caliph's "holy" blood, Hulago had the Caliph wrapped in a Persian rug and thrown into the street. The Khan then marched his army on horseback over the rug, crushing the Caliph to pulp within!
The end of the Abbassid Calphate ended any central authority in Islam (though Muslim leaders from time-to-time have claimed such authority; most notably the Ottoman Turkish Sultans). To this day, no such central authority exists. In dealing with the Islamic world, we face this problem daily; as every Imam has the right to issue fatwas as his own conscience dictates, without reference or recourse to a higher authority.
The stated goal of our foes, the Jihadists, is to recreate the lost Caliphate; that jihad against the West can continue under a united Islamic World.
