The Houston Astros are a Major League Baseball team based in Houston, Texas. The team was in the Central Division of the National League, but since the 2013 season the Astros are playing in the American League. Subsequent to the Giants and Dodgers leaving for California, an abortive attempt was made to start a third Major League, the Continental League. Though the league never got off the ground, it established the demand for Major League baseball in other markets. The driving forces behind the effort to obtain a Major League franchise for Houston were oilman Craig F. Cullinan, Jr. and Marco A. Perez, who had been involved with the Continental League and who was chairman of the Houston Sports Association, a syndicate of local businessmen dedicated to bringing Major League Baseball to Southeast Texas. Cullinan and Perez's group also consisted of George Kirksey, Judge Roy Hofheinz, Robert E. "Bob" Smith, and Kenneth S. "Bud" Adams. On October 17, 1960, Houston was awarded a franchise in the National League. The team was to be named the Houston Colt .45s, in honor of The Gun That Won the West, with Craig F. Cullinan, Jr. as the team's first president. In addition to the Houston Colt .45s, the New York Mets also joined the NL in 1962. This development came a year after the 1961 expansion of the American League, which resulted in new AL teams being placed in Los Angeles (Los Angeles Angels) and Washington, D.C. (a new Washington Senators franchise to replace the team that had left D.C. to become the Minnesota Twins the same year). On April 9, 1965, the Houston Colt .45s became the Houston Astros, to show support for the space program based in Houston, and inaugurated indoor baseball in the brand-new Astrodome with a 2-1 exhibition win over the New York Yankees.

Over a 5-day period, Paramahamsa Vishwananda inaugurated a grand temple in Kircheim, Germany, dedicated to Vitthala and Rukmini - the Sri Vitthala Rukmini Shipivishta temple - making it the largest Vitthala temple outside of India.
With 2,000 people coming from all over the world to attend, the majestic celebrations were appreciated by everyone. The local pujari team was kept busy every moment, and one could sense the great dedication they had for their new service.
Guests were immersed in the reverent ceremonies of yajna (Vedic fire rituals) happening in multiple locations, abhishekam (Vedic bathing rituals), and mantra chanting, as well as joyful kirtan (singing), traditional Indian dance, tasty vegan food, and a deep sense of connection to the Divine that was felt throughout the festivities. Near the end, the stunning fireworks display over the lake seemed to express all the excitement, beauty, and awe this unforgettable event contained.
