When you begin reading about yoga, books suggest the ultimate goal is to unite the mind, the body, and the spirit. Yogis view that the mind and the body are one, and believe that if they practice yoga and incorporate the tools for living, one can find harmony and heal self. Yoga therefore is considered therapeutic and is being utilized for those interested in “prevention NOT treatment.” As you become more aware of your body's posture, alignment and patterns of movement, you also gain flexibility and the ability to process and deal with stress in a positive manner. This is one of the foremost reasons why people want to start Practicing Yoga - to feel fitter, be more energetic, be happier and peaceful.
Yoga is a science that has been practiced for thousands of years. It is consists of Ancient Theories, observations and principles about the mind and body connection which is now being proven by modern medicine. Substantial research has been conducted to look at the Health Benefits of Yoga - from the Yoga Postures (Asanas), Yoga Breathing (Pranayama), and Meditation. The information on Yoga Poses & Benefits are grouped into three categories-physiological, psychological, biochemical effects. Furthermore, scientists have laid these results against the benefits of regular exercise. It’s amazing how much the physical body does benefit from incorporating yoga as a daily practice.
Yoga is considered a mind-body type of complementary and alternative medicine practice. Yoga brings together physical and mental disciplines to achieve peacefulness of body and mind, helping you relax and manage stress and anxiety. Traditional yoga philosophy requires that students adhere to this mission through behavior, diet and meditation. But if you're just looking for better stress management — whether because of life's daily hassles or a health problem you're facing — and not an entire lifestyle change or way of life, yoga can still help.
The Health Benefits of Yoga
Yoga has been practiced for more than 5,000 years, and currently, close to 11 million Americans now enjoy its health benefits. Yoga can hardly be called a trend.
Most Westernized yoga classes focus on learning physical poses, which are called asanas. They also usually include some form of breathing technique and possibly a meditation technique as well. Some yoga classes are designed purely for relaxation. But there are styles of yoga that teach you how to move your body in new ways. Choosing one of these styles offers the greatest health benefits by enabling you to develop your flexibility, strength, and balance.
Yoga and Flexibility
When some people think of yoga, they imagine having to stretch like a gymnast. That makes them worry that they're too old, unfit, or "tight" to do yoga. The truth is you're never too old to improve flexibility. The series of yoga poses called asanas work by safely stretching your muscles. This releases the lactic acid that builds up with muscle use and causes stiffness, tension, pain, and fatigue. In addition, yoga increases the range of motion in joints. It may also increase lubrication in the joints. The outcome is a sense of ease and fluidity throughout your body.
Yoga stretches not only your muscles but all of the soft tissues of your body. That includes ligaments, tendons, and the fascia sheath that surrounds your muscles. And no matter your level of yoga, you most likely will see benefits in a very short period of time. In one study, participants had up to 35% improvement in flexibility after only eight weeks of yoga. The greatest gains were in shoulder and trunk flexibility.
Yoga and Strength
Some styles of yoga, such as ashtanga and power yoga, are more vigorous than others. Practicing one of these styles will help you improve muscle tone.
But even less vigorous styles of yoga, such as Iyengar or hatha, which focuses on less movement and more precise alignment in poses, can provide strength and endurance benefits. Watch for the mid month edition if you would like to learn more about the various types of yoga and individual & collective benefits.
Yoga Can Help Posture
With increased flexibility and strength comes better posture. Most standing and sitting poses develop core strength. That's because you're counting on your deep abdominals to support and maintain each pose. With a stronger core, you're more likely to sit and stand "tall." Another benefit of yoga is the increased body awareness. This heightened awareness tells you more quickly when you're slouching or slumping so you can adjust your posture.
Other Benefits of Yoga
Some studies suggest that yoga may have a positive effect on learning and memory. Other researchers have been studying whether yoga can slow the aging process, increase a person's sense of self-acceptance, or improve energy levels. Some potential benefits of yoga may be hard to study scientifically. For instance, yoga has been said to increase spiritual awareness. Nevertheless, there is an abundance of anecdotal claims for what yoga can do. Go to any yoga studio and listen to students after class. Some will even tell you that yoga can help improve marriages and relationships at work. The only way to be certain of all that yoga can do for you is to try it for yourself and see.

These megalith alignments, contemporary to those (more famous) of Carnac, show that the Crozon peninsula was inhabited since many thousands of years. The standing stones date from about 2500 BC. In the beginning there were probably more than 400 stones; today there are only 65 left, arranged in three lines that form three of the four sides of a rectangle. The longest line is about 200 m. It is assumed that the arrangement had an astronomic significance related to the constellation of Pleiades whose name in Breton is “ar yar” (the hen), hence the name of the place derived from “Lagad-Yar” (hen’s eye).

Aliniamentele de megaliţi, contemporanele cu cele (mai cunoscute) de la Carnac, aratǎ cǎ peninsula Crozon a fost locuitǎ de mai multe mii de ani. Menhirele dateazǎ din anii 2500 î.Ch. Iniţial, în amplasament s-au aflat probabil peste 400 de pietre; astǎzi au mai rǎmas 65, dispuse în trei linii formând trei din laturile unui dreptunghi. Cea mai lungǎ dintre ele are cca. 200 m. Se presupune cǎ amplasamentul a avut unele semnificaţii de naturǎ astronomicǎ, fiind legate de constelaţia Pleiadelor, purtând în bretonǎ numele de “ar yar” (gǎina), de unde şi numele locului derivat din “Lagad-Yar” (ochiul gǎinii).

You may see layer alignment issues on prints with flat surfaces; notice how the print on the left exhibits the problem very well but the contour of the print on the right masks the problem to a certain degree. This can be caused by a variety of issues, but here are some of the things you can do to get more consistency:
1. Slow down if using non-Marlin firmware. Print your perimeter at 20-25 mm/sec
2. Tighten your belts.
3. Make sure any springs on your build platform are very tight and that the top plate can't wobble around independent of the bottom plate.
4. Upgrade your Z-coupling to a better one, such as www.thingiverse.com/thing:11220
5. Replace any non-straight threaded rod used in the Z-axis with perfectly straight ones.
6. Unless they were printed perfectly, replace your timing pulleys with manufactured ones, such as sdp-si.com/eStore/PartDetail.asp?Opener=Group&PartID=...
Sequence analysis of eukaryotic and prokaryotic SLC1 transporters.(A) Sequence alignment of TMD8 region from human, insect, bacterial, and archael transporters. CuqDCT, CuqEAAT, AeaDCT, and AeaEAAT represent the EAAT and DCT orthologs from Culex quinquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti, respectively. AngEAAT1 and AngEAAT2 represent the transporters from Anopheles gambiae. Drosophila EAAT1/2 are from Drosophila melanogaster, Gltph from Pyrococcus horikoshii, and DctA is from Bacillus subtilis. Highlighted TMD8 residues involved in substrate binding are labeled above using human EAAT3 numbering. R447 and N451 are conserved in all EAAT-like orthologs, while D444 and T448 are changed to asparagine and alanine, respectively in the CuqDCT and AeaDCT mosquito transporters. Sequence alignments were performed with ClustalX2 and Jalview. (B) The phylogenetic relationship of the EAAT and DCT proteins from Culex quinquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti mosquito species together with the two EAATs from Drosophila (ClustalX2 based alignment).
A group of core networking volunteers and friends from past events (like What the Hack 2005, Hacking at Random 2009, Chaos Communication Camp 2011, Observe. Hack. Make 2013) needed to make alterations to a few kilometers of fiber optic cable to be ready for upcoming events such as Chaos Communication Camp 2015, Campzone 2015 and SHA2017.
This turned into a fusion splicing (fiber splicing) workshop.

The colours in the image are the result of birefringence and relate to the residual strain in the polystyrene. The pattern of strain is indicative of the flow of material during the injection process and it highlights the injection point (known as a 'sprue') which can also be identified by a small lump on the surface; the molecular alignment is greatest near this point. Towards the edges of the ruler and along its length, the material becomes more relaxed and as the molecular alignment falls, the retardation of light is less. If heated above the glass transition temperature of polystyrene (about 100 deg C), the material will tend to relax, particularly near the sprue. This will result in a wrinkling of the component.
