![]() ![]() The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.You can close your eyes to reality but not to memories.Never let hard lessons harden your heart the hard lessons of life are meant to make you better, not bitter.Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.You can’t just wish change you have to live the change in order for it to become a reality.Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries.If you do, that shows how shaky your own position is. You don’t have to disrespect and insult others simply to hold your own ground.I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality.You just get moments that are absolutely, utterly, inexplicably odd. You don’t get explanations in real life.If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or things.Life is 10 percent what you make it, and 90 percent how you take it.And be sure to smell the flowers along the way. Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.But if you learn from them, you’ll be a better person. If you live long enough, you’ll make mistakes.Your life’s work determines your legacy and the impact that you have on the world.Life isn’t a matter of milestones, but of moments.You can steer yourself any direction you choose. Life is about making an impact, not making an income.There were two ways to be happy: improve your reality, or lower your expectations.It is not length of life, but depth of life.Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like. Don’t resist them that only creates sorrow. Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes.To keep your balance, you must keep moving. If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one.You couldn’t hide from bad things and pretend they didn’t exist, that left you with a dream world, and dream worlds eventually crumble.If life were predictable it would cease to be life and be without flavor.The best portion of a good man’s life is his little nameless, unencumbered acts of kindness and of love.And that is the highest degree of human wisdom. ![]() We can know only that we know nothing.Life is really simple, but men insist on making it complicated.I have found that if you love life, life will love you back.Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.To live is the rarest thing in the world.The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.Are you satisfied with the life you are living? – Bob Marley The goal isn’t to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.

Yet there is a multitude of philosophical ideas developed by looking into the deeper dimensions of the body, mind and spirit. Philosophy of Yoga The main philosophy of yoga is simple: mind, body and spirit are all one and cannot be clearly separated.As the cultural and religious diversity of practitioners attest, yogic philosophy speaks to universal truths that can be incorporated within any belief system. It is not a religion, but a practice of personal inquiry and exploration. Though yoga’s ultimate aim is lofty, its essence is practical and scientific as it emphasizes direct experience and observable results. The different paths of yoga emphasize different approaches and techniques, but ultimately lead to the same goal of unification and enlightenment. ![]() What is normally thought of as “yoga” in the West is really Hatha Yoga, one of the many paths of yoga. ![]() Yoga 101: The Basics Yoga is a vast collection of spiritual techniques and practices aimed at integrating mind, body and spirit to achieve a state of enlightenment or oneness with the universe.Special Sequences Looking for something different? These sequences are designed for specific applications, using combinations of yoga postures for their effects on the physical, mental, emotional and energetic bodies.For more intermediate level sequences, check out the Sun Salutations and the Special Sequences sections. Intermediate Sequences By adding challenging postures to the beginning sequences, these posture flows are the most complex, vigorous and long.We have several Sun Salutation sequences available with varying levels of difficulty, from basic to intermediate. Sun Salutations Often considered the core of hatha yoga practice, Sun Salutations are traditionally practiced at sunrise to warm and energize the body.For more beginning level sequences, check out the Sun Salutations and the Special Sequences sections. Build on the basic pose sequences by adding more length and challenge to the flow. Beginning Sequences Where to start if you have some previous experience with yoga.These posture flows are simple, short and only contain basic postures. Basic Sequences Where to start if you are new or a beginner.Warm-up Sequences Use these sequences of simple stretches to warm up prior to any of the pose sequences.While you are practicing pranayama, let go of any thoughts by focusing on the breathing involved with the pranayama. Always sit with a straight spine and a relaxed body. For all pranayama (except Kapalabhati), the breath is slow and steady, breathed in and out of the nose and down into the belly. Prana is taken in through the air we breathe, and since the pranayama exercises increase the amount of air we take in, they also increase our intake of Prana. Thus, Pranyama is used to control, cultivate, and modify the Prana in the body. Prana translates into “life force energy” and Yama translates into “control or mastery of”. ![]()
![]() Table cabinet, rails, blinds, legs, and internal support system: Guaranteed to be free from splitting or cracking.Ģ. Legacy, using its sole discretion, will either repair or replace the part(s) proven to be defective as established per the following:ġ. Is it a diamond in the rough by chance? But here's my real question.The Ella II Pool Table by Legacy carries a LIFETIME WARRANTY from the date of original purchase by the consumer. I know the choice of wood may vary, but it has some good weight to it also at around 750 lbs. No veneers, no mdf, good cross beams, good corners, etc. Surprisingly, the construction seems very solid despite being an overseas table. There is some wiggle room in that though. ![]() My budget with delivery and install is at the 3.5k mark ideally +350 for some 860 felt. Used market around me doesn't have much that I'm in love with, so think I'm going new. The added bonus is if you lose interest the Gold Crown is waaaay more sought after and an easier table to sell.īuying my first table and going for an 8' as anything larger will be tight for the room. If you want a one and done purchase, I highly recommend a Gold Crown. When you do, the Legacy is going to be EXTREMELY difficult to sell and you will take a serious bath if you pay $3,500 all in for one. As you improve, you will find the Legacy will not play to your liking and you will most likely want to upgrade in a few years. If you are planing to keep the table for an extended period of time and plan to play regularly and improve your skill level, you'd be best served with a Gold Crown or similar commercial table. You can probably cheat the two inches in question on the 5' side and be fine with an OS 8'. Shots on either end rail require the use of a "shorty" but I'd say those shots come up less than 10% of the time. How large is the column in question and how often do you think it will come into play? I've got a 9' Gold Crown in my 18' x 18' garage. Yes, they did make a standard 8' Gold Crown. One thing I read someone mention though is that it impacts you in that you start to plan your shots around avoiding the pole, so can mess with your game even if you never broke out the shorty. If that's event the slightest bit accurate, that's not bad at all. So really I'd be looking at 1 shot in every 6 games per player. Let's call it 1/3 of the shots where the ball is in the bad region. But you know, you add in the fact that just because a ball is there doesn't mean you'll be hitting it at an angle that interferes with the pole, it could actually be much lower. If the average beginner game has 20 shots per person (guessing), I'd be looking at 1 shot every other game. Unfortunately I haven't had enough experience to know how frequently it would occur, but from a pure math stand point, if we assume the bad region is 6" x 6" around each pole, and on a 9' table there are 40 squared feet of playing surface, then 1 of 40 regions are bad or 2.5%. I'm finishing the room now and the walls just went up.can't wait. But I'll have this table for 20+ years and can't wait to play, so I will be getting better and do want a table I can grow in to. I'm not bad, but compared to anyone here I'm just a beginner. In fact, I'm basically just someone that played on a 6' a bunch when I was 16 and then only got the opportunity to play once every few years since then (now I'm 42). I should say though, I'm not a serious player. If I add an extra 2" to the table for an oversized, I'll be breaking out that shortie a lot more often I think, and all the time if I go 9'. I plan to put 5' of space, along the wall, which leaves 57.5" to the lally column. I'll just have to get a 48" cue to occasionally break out. Two of those lally columns are gonna interfere at times. My basement is large but I've got 3 lally columns that divide it into 2 sides. Here's a video (fast forwarded to the proper spot), showing the construction if interested:ĭid they make a straight 8' GC? Since I've been searching (a few months) I've only come across one 8' GC but it was an oversized 8'. ![]() Is it a diamond in the rough by chance? But here's my real question.If I went with the Legacy Mesa, how are the cushions? With some 860 felt and a good mechanic for the setup, can I get this thing playing really well? Or would the cushions be holding me back? Should I plan to just replace them from the get go? How about the pockets? Anyone know? Buying my first table and going for an 8' as anything larger will be tight for the room.

You know, that gunners area on top of the army Hummve (hahaha) Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta! ![]() The headlamps, with the rectangular prismic design, resembles that of the 1983-1986 model Monte Carlo - a car which was really cool looking - infact almost better looking than all the rest of the models that followed! Hate to say that GM, but that's just what it is! The rest of those Monte Carlo models were just bland, un-artistic garbage that is worthy of being riddled and pierced to pieces with bullets from a. ![]() That was very clever! This Dodge Charger influence can be seen in the rear rump, the rear profile (including the spoiler), the roofline, as well as in the design of the greenhouse or windows area. And further adding to this is the racing stripes on top that enforce a visualization of speed!įurthermore, with this design of a new Chevrolet Monte Carlo, it seems that the artist combined the pre-2012 Dodge Charger body design with a Chevy Monte Carlo body. It adds anelement of ultra aggression and massive horsepower, which by extension, is also visualized due to the huge bulge in the hood. However, irregardless of whatever Photoshop job this is, I am really digging it, it is quite unique! I love the huge grille cut into the lower front fascia - very truck-ish! I have never seen it like that on any Chevy models to date. And that's because I realized that it has old rims as well as left over lower body pieces from a previous Chevy Monte Carlo model. Upon my subsequent inspection of zooming in and panning around on the image, I came to the conclusion that rather than a rendering, it is a Photoshop job. I clicked on the image, and saved it to my desktop for further inspection.
