The Word of the Day for January 30 is:

garble \GAR-bul\ verb
1 : to sift impurities from
2 *a : to so alter or distort as to create a wrong impression or change the
meaning b : to introduce textual error into (a message) by inaccurate
encipherment, transmission, or decipherment

Example sentence:
Jim's stage debut was a success, for the most part, though he did garble a
few of his lines in the opening scene.

Did you know?
"Garble" developed from Late Latin "cribellare," a verb meaning "to sift."
Arabic speakers borrowed "cribellare" as "gharbala," and the Arabic word passed
into Old Italian as "garbellare"; both of these words also meant "to sift." When
the word first entered Middle English as "garbelen," its meaning stayed close to
the original; it meant "to sort out the best." But that sort of sifting can
cause a distortion, and in early Modern English "garble" came to mean "to
distort the meaning or sound of."

Word by Word Translation of the Gayatri Mantra

Translating the word 'Love' From English to Spanish cannot impart the experience of 'Love'. hence one must understand that substituting one word for another does not necessarily impart its meaning.

The Gayatri Mantra is the essence of the three Vedas. It is the Vedas simplified. The more one contemplates and meditates upon the Gayatri, the more complexities are revealed to one.

AUM Supreme Lord
BHUR Protector of the earth, the material sheath, The Life breath of the Universe. From the feet to the navel center.
BHUVAH One of the meanings is the sky. The Lord who pervades and eliminates all miseries. From the navel to the throat center.
SVAH One of the meanings is the heavens. Also the atmosphere. He is all Bliss and blesses His devotees with happiness. From above the throat center to the thousand petalled lotus.
TAT That (That Thou Art)
SAVITUR The SUN, Creator, Preserver and Self Luminous, the central mantra of the Solar Science.
VARENYAM Most fit to be worshipped. Most choice worthy.
BHARGO The burning splendor of the Sun that dispels ignorance, and therefore sorrows and miseries.
DEVASYA The 'Deva', The God, He who is All Bliss, The Joyful One, The Shining One, The Revealer of All Glory
DHEEMAHI We meditate upon Him
DHEEYO YO NA Who our intelligence and Wisdom
PRACHODAYAAT Inspires

blondes on your hood? now there's a thought ; )
 

Jay-Z Jay-Z may be the richest man in hip-hop, or at the very top, but with all the money and fame, he says it's not all that he expected.

In a recent interview with Blender.com, the rapper -- whose estimated net worth is around $286 million -- says he expected a lot more from being as wealthy as he is.

"All I got is this big house, couple cars, I don't bring half them sh--s out... How many times can I go to Mr. Chow's?" He asked.

"In the context of the album, it was that 'Scarface' moment when Tony Montana sits in the restaurant and looks around and says, 'This is all it's about?'" Jay tells the magazine. "You get to that point where it's like, 'OK, I drove the Rolls Phantom around the corner and... nothing happened.' And you ask yourself, 'That's it? I thought blondes was gonna be jumping on my hood."

Buddha renounced his palaces, his kingdom, his riches, and became a beggar. When he came back to his capital town, his father was very angry – as all fathers are. It is difficult to find a father who is not angry with the son, because whatsoever you do, it makes no difference. You may become a
criminal, he will be angry; you may become a saint, he will be angry. Even if you become a Buddha...
the father was angry. Because you can never fulfill anybody’s expectations; that is impossible. How can you fulfill anybody else’s expectations? He could not fulfill them himself, and he expects you to
fulfill them. So whatsoever you do will be wrong.
The father was very angry. And Buddha had become Enlightened. He had come, a totally
transformed being, resurrected. He was surrounded by infinite light, and a silence. It is said that whenever Buddha would move, wherever he would move, even trees would feel his presence and
flowers would come out of season. Wherever he would move, for twelve miles surrounding his body, suddenly a deep silence would happen. But a father is an exception. The father was angry; he couldn’t feel the silence; he couldn’t feel the light – he could see only a vagabond, a beggar. And he said, ‘It is enough! Now you have fooled around enough. Come back!
And my doors are still open. Look at yourself: a son of an emperor – asking for your food in the same capital, begging. Look at your begging bowl, your torn clothes, almost rags! What are you doing to yourself? I feel ashamed of you! But I have a heart, the heart of a father, and my doors are not closed. You have hurt me deeply, but still I have the heart of a father. Come back! Don’t move like a beggar – be an emperor!’
