Mancala board1/4/2024 The side of the board closest to each player, as well as the end cup on each player’s right belongs to that player. Place the game board between the two players, with the larger cups on the right and left of the players. Below are the rules from Roger Louis Sinashon’s Web site: There are many variations on the rules, so feel free to choose a different method of play. and explain the rules of Mancala to the class. Once the Mancala boards have dried and are ready to play with, hand out your play pieces - beans, paperclips, etc. Go ahead and decorate with markers, paint or anything else they’d like! Have them design their own board with symbols representing important aspects of their own lives, including landscapes they’ve seen or different agricultural types Americans use today. ![]() Remind students of the use of symbolism in Mancala to represent agriculture, landscape and harvesting. Now the students are ready to decorate their games.Attatch these pieces using tape, glue or staples. Attatch the top pieces so they stick out enough to be the cups for the Mancala game. Take the two top pieces and attach them to the bottom of the remaining egg carton piece (side with cups).Halve the top of the carton, cutting width-wise down the middle.Cut the extra closure section off of the top of the egg carton.Instruct the students to cut the top off the egg cartons along the hinge and set the bottom (the egg-holding tray) to the side.Distribute decorating materials and egg cartons.See if children can pick up on the similarities and differences between the two. It may be best to show both African versions as well as American versions. You may use the information we’ve provided or research further. Start the class with some basic historical information on Mancala. Suitable game pieces: beans, paperclips, buttons, etc. ![]() Egg cartons (one-dozen-sized container).This lesson would be best suited for a pre-museum visit and is a great way to introduce students to African culture. The decoration and creation of Mancala boards is said to represent agriculture and landscape a depiction of land being turned into a productive field through clearing plowing, irrigation, and harvesting. The slave trade brought the game to the Caribbean and the east coast of South America. North of the equator they use a “two-rank” board south of the equator, a “four rank” board is used. It is played all over Africa with two basic variations. ![]() Some even place Mancala among the oldest games in the world, with archaeological evidence reaching back perhaps as far as 6000 B.C.E. carved into the temple roofs of Memphis, Thebes and Luxor. Mancala is a generic name for this type of “count and capture” game and stems from the Arabic word which means “to move.” Examples of this game have been found in Egyptian ruins dated from 1400 B.C.E.

Calendar by week number1/4/2024 ![]() If 1 January is on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, it is in week 52 or 53 of the previous year. If 1 January is on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, it is in week 01.the week with the Thursday in the period 1 - 7 January. ![]() the week starting with the Monday in the period 29 December - 4 January.the first week with the majority (four or more) of its days in the starting year.the week with the year's first working day in it (if Saturdays, Sundays, and 1 January are no working days).the week with the year's first Thursday in it.Mutually equivalent definitions for week 01 are: In the period 4 January–28 December and on all Thursdays the ISO year number is always equal to the Gregorian year number. The ISO year number deviates from the number of the Gregorian year on, if applicable, a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, or a Saturday and Sunday, or just a Sunday, at the start of the Gregorian year (which are at the end of the previous ISO year) and a Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, or a Monday and Tuesday, or just a Monday, at the end of the Gregorian year (which are in week 01 of the next ISO year). 1.3 Examples where the ISO year is three days into the previous Gregorian year.1.2 Examples where the ISO year is three days into the next Gregorian year.Since non-leap years have 52 weeks, in every 400 years there are 71 leap years. The system has a 400-year cycle of 146,097 days (20,871 weeks), with an average year length of exactly 365.2425 days, just like the Gregorian calendar. In the Gregorian system this day is called December 31, 2006. For example, 2006-W52-7 (or in its most compact form 06W527) is the Sunday of the 52nd week of 2006. The extra week is called a leap week, a year with such a week a leap year.Ī date is specified by the ISO year in the format YYYY, a week number in the format ww prefixed by the letter W, and the weekday number, a digit d from 1 through 7, beginning with Monday and ending with Sunday. An ISO year has 52 or 53 full weeks (364 or 371 days). ISO years have a year numbering which is approximately the same as the Gregorian years, but not exactly (see below). The system uses the same cycle of 7 weekdays as the Gregorian calendar. The system is used (mainly) in government and business for fiscal years, as well as in timekeeping. The ISO week date system is a leap week calendar system that is part of the ISO 8601 date and time standard.

M.G.Umar in his bbook, Sri Aurobindo, Thinker and Yogi of the Future observes, “What is consciousness, pure consciousness is an infinite self- aware existence- Sat- full of Bliss. This Supramental consciousness works at different levels and different modes. When it sees anything as an object of knowledge, it yet sees it as itself and in itself, and not as a thing other than or divided from it about which therefore it would at first be ignorant of the nature, constitution and workings and have to learn about them, as the mind is at first ignorant of its object and has to learn about it because the mind is separated from its object and regards and senses and meets it as something other than itself and external to its own being.” (Sri Aurobindo, The Synthesis of Yoga, Part Four: The Yoga of Self-Perfection, Chapter 19, The Nature of the Supermind, pp. The Spirit is one everywhere and it knows all things as itself and in itself, so sees them always and therefore knows them intimately, completely, in their reality as well as their appearance, in their truth, their law, the entire spirit and sense and figure of their nature and their workings. Sri Aurobindo observes: “The fundamental nature of this supermind is that all its knowledge is originally a knowledge by identity and oneness and even when it makes numberless apparent divisions and discriminating modifications in itself, still all the knowledge that operates in its workings even in these divisions, is founded upon and sustained and lit and guided by this perfect knowledge by identity and oneness. Sri Aurobindo expostulates a gradual growth and development of consciousness until one reaches the Supramental consciousness. Man is part of evolution and he is not the last term of evolution. Echoing the rishis of the Vedas and the Upanishads, Sri Aurobindo states that there is one Divine Reality that pervades and dominates all existence and is beyond all: Sarvam Khalidam Brahman. He uses the term Superman as someone who has exceeded the normal human mentality and embodied the Supramental Truth- Consciousness. Sri Aurobindo’s philosophy is a grand synthesis of the East and the West. He further states, “The spiritual experience and the general truths on which such an attempt could be based, were already present to us otherwise we should have had no right to make the endeavour at all but the complete intellectual statement of them and their results and issues had to be found.”(322) During the Arya’s seven years Sri Aurobindo wanted to bring out a ‘synthetic philosophy’ for ‘ the new age’ of a ‘humanity’. The Life Divine is Sri Aurobindo’s supramental manifesto. Having attained in constant walking life, and not merely in a sealed Samadhi the reality which he terms Genesis he has but laid out in intellectual exposition what Gnostic consciousness is and what yogic possibilities it holds and what the results of its full descent into our earth existence will be. ![]() The Life Divine is nothing except his experience, his realisation. ![]() K.R.Srinivasa Iyengar in his biography of Sri Aurobindo calls it a treatise on metaphysics (415). It was revised by Sri Aurobindo and the first volume was published in book form in 1939 and the second in 1940. It provides his vision of the evolution of man. Prominence was given in The Arya to The Life Divine. Secondly, because I had to write down in the terms of the intellect all that I had observed and come to know in practising yoga daily, and philosophy was there automatically… (D.K.Roy, Sri Aurobindo Came to me ,Jaico 1964. I was a poet and a politician, not a philosopher! How I managed to do it and why? First, Richard proposed to me to co- operate in a philosophical review and as my theory was that a yogi ought to be able to turn his hand to anything I could not I could not well refuse: and then he had to go to the war and left me in the lunch with sixty- four pages of philosophy all to write by my lonely self. I knew precious little about philosophy before I did the yoga and came to Pondicherry. And philosophy Let me tell you in confidence that I never ever was a philosopher- although I have written philosophy…. Timemachineeditor1/4/2024 Again, probably won’t work, but it’s quick enough to be worth a try. And that would explain why the TimeMachineEditor workaround fails, since after it does the backup, even though TM is disabled, the local snapshot processes stick around.Īnd it probably won’t work, but you should at least try turning off TM, *rebooting* to make sure the local snapshot processes are quit, and *then* doing a manual backup. If turning off TM, rebooting, and not backing up for a bit to troubleshoot *does* end the local snapshot nightmare, it just means that those processes never properly quit after a backup is done. If you’re still getting the mess even with it turned off, I guess the local snapshot functionality is enabled even with TM disabled. You could try simply turning off TM, rebooting, and not backing up for a couple of hours to troubleshoot. ![]() ![]() I find these entries to be interesting.ġ2/7/15 18:32:47.000 kernel: Sandbox: mtmfs(552) System Policy: deny(1) forbidden-rootless-xattrġ2/7/15 18:32:47.156 mtmfs: could not set attributes on destination file descriptor: Operation not permitted: Operation not permittedġ2/7/15 19:33:33.810 : () Unknown key for Boolean: ForceEnableHackġ2/7/15 19:33:33.810 : () This service is defined to be constantly running and is inherently inefficient. Update: I found the following in system logs. I reinstalled El Capitan, and nothing changed. I’ve contacted AppleCare, and spent a lot of time on this, sending them logs and other data, and I’m waiting to hear back. So it’s clearly Time Machine that’s killing my battery. When I check Activity Monitor, and look at Energy, the app listed as having the highest impact is Time Machine, way above Safari which is the second. It should only do this when it can’t access your Time Machine disk it then copies those snapshots the next time the Time Machine disk is available. But I’m only using the MacBook at my home office, so it’s on the network where my Time Machine backup device is located, and it shouldn’t make local snapshots. These two processes are related to Time Machine, and have something to do with creating local snapshots. Here’s a screenshot from iStat Menus when that happens: One thing I notice is that two processes, mtmd and mtmfs, pop up frequently, using about 100% of CPU (of a core) and do so for a while. I’ve been using it a lot in the past week, and I’ve noticed that I’m getting perhaps 6 hours of battery life, without using a lot of apps. I use it for testing, for taking screenshots, and for working outside my office from time to time. ![]() Now my ADHD brain can work get distracted by writing blog posts in peace.My MacBook is my second computer, and I don’t use it much. It’s possible TimeMachineEditor uses the same method to change settings, but it makes it easier to toggle those settings if there’s an issue. There’s also some Time Machine command line preferences you can set, but I’m not sure how out of date they are, and I’m trying to avoid changing preferences via defaults because as far as I can tell there’s no way to see what was changed and what is the default value without installing another copy of macOS and comparing the two. I kept local snapshots every hour turned on, since making APFS snapshots is noiseless on my Mac’s SSD, and they can get uploaded later to my NAS during the time window I set. You can set calendar intervals, a do-not-backup time range, and some other handy options. ![]() I usually use my AirPod Pro’s noise cancellation, but often I just want to sit in silence with no music, and definitely don’t want to hear the chaotic crunchy sounds of backups happening.Ĭlearly, we need some scheduling to happen! Unfortunately Time Machine is too simple, and you only get 3 options: turn on or off automatic backups, select a location, and exclude folders.Īfter some searching for utilities that aren’t out of date, I found TimeMachineEditor by tclement. The drives were designed for reliability and longevity, not noise reduction. However, my NAS, a Synology DS215+ with two 2TB WD Red HDDs, is very noisy in my small office. It’s saved me once already, when I accidentally deleted my Documents folder while trying to move my stuff to iCloud. I love macOS’s Time Machine backup feature.
