This Hampi trip had another agenda. To document a specific Hanuman ji Mudra that @TheSignOfFive has been tracking for quite a few yrs now (I have a few MH contributions too in that set of hers 😄).

It's amazing how much one can find in Hampi if you seek it. Read on.
This one with Shendur is on Malayavant Parvat. Apparently the place where Rama & Lakshmana spent a rainy season when they came to Kishkindha😄
This temple has THE MOST BEAUTIFUL idols of Ram-Sita-Lakshman-Hanuman. It's the highest Hill in the area, it doubles as a sunset pt 😄
Climb up the Hemakuta hillock overlooking the Virupaksha temple and this tiny temple has Hanuman ji again 😄🙏
At one pt in @TheSignOfFive's thread, there was a confusion about what Hanuman ji was holding. The Saugandhika v/s Gadaa. Someone in the reply rightly mentioned the story of Hanuman ji and Bhima meeting. Here's a pillar depicting just that (asked the guide repeatedly abt this) 😄
The confusion was also about whether one of the Murtis in that thread was actually Bhima and not Hanuman ji. Well, in Hampi, you see this separately 😄

Bhima with Saugandhika.
There's one more Hanuman ji near Veerabhadra Temple.
And this one is my absolute favorite. Just for the setting.

Easy to miss since it's in a field along the side of the road (on the way to Vitthala temple complex) & no signboard. Just see the setting.

Temple in a Grove 😄🙏
In the Vitthala complex, he is EVERYWHERE! Just have to spot him 😄
More..! The second one is near the stone chariot.
This one is near the base of Matanga hill 😄🙏
Bhima makes an appearance once more. This one is enroute to Achyutaraya temple.
This one on the same road. They're just there. Unattended 😢
This one is well attended though. In full glory! Near the Yantrodharaka Hanuman temple. Tungabhadra flows by this temple & makes a neat turn here 😄
And this grand ~10 foot one in the Lotus Mahal area. 😍🙏
Closing this thread with this. Sunset at Malayavanta Hill.

Jai Shri Ram 🙏

#HyderabadLiberationDay #MarathwadaMuktiSangramDin Thread on how Ganapati Celebrations, Nizam's follies, Razakar terror, common people's bravery, deft political manoeuvres, armed resistance, daring attempts, rapid 'police' action #OperationPolo led to Sept 17th, 1948.
When Lokmanya Tilak gave the call for Sarvajanik Ganapati celebrations in 1893, one of the first few people to answer his call outside MH were from Hyderabad..! In 1894, the Marathi speaking population of Hyd started Public celebrations of Ganapati at 2 locations.
One was at Shah Ali Banda. Arya Samaji Gore Shastri of Vaidik Dharma Prakashika installed the Ganapati near Akkanna Madanna temple. The other was installed by students of Osmania University in the Deodi of Bellap Hanumantha Rao near Hari Masjid Sultan Bazar.

Thread on Indian Railways initiative. @PiyushGoyal ji spoke of a Rail Drishti app. Like his stint in the Power ministry, with dashboards in real-time to track the ministry initiatives, his new stint in Railways brings to us Rail Drishti. Here's the site -
raildrishti.cris.org.in/raildrishti/da…
The site opens with a dashboard listing numbers & their growth y-o-y. With a rai line map on the right. A small gears symbol on the right opens up a tab where one can toggle the buttons to highlight different station categories onto the map. I toggled NSG 3 for e.g
Clicking on a particular staion's bubble will pop-up details of a particular station which gives info about the station's physical infra, footfall, train passage etc. There is also a button to see all these details in pdf form right there near the top of the pop-up. Nice :)

#Hampi is an experience, hard to describe in words or through pictures. But, can’t help sharing what I did today. Walked through the magnificent history of Vijayanagara Samrajya (1336-1646). EACH stone of Hampi is a story in itself.

#Thread

1. Stone Chariot, Vitthala Temple.
2. Absolutely stunning single-stone carved structures. And, these are giant.

Here, single stone carved doors (with locking system), which used to be at the entrance of the Royal Enclosure in #Hampi.
Single stone 22 feet tall Laxmi Narsimha idol at #Hampi. Originally, Laxmi idol was sitting on its left side. See second pic. That is how it was supposed to be.

Here is a thread of images from Hampi / ಹಂಪೆ

On the week of Kannada Rajyotsava, here is celebrating a place that gave birth to one of the greatest empires that history has witnessed.

To start with, a bird's eye view of the heart of the kingdom.
1/n
You can't not fall in love with this extraordinary land of heritage carved in stone. However, each visitor may be enchanted by something that only she/he can identify with. My own love affair is with the river, rocks, boulders and these magnificent pavilions of stone.
These pavilions of stone / mantapa / ಮಂಟಪ dot the landscapes of Hampi, often located beautifully at strategic locations, such as top of a hill or along a long passage.

Probably. They're so bad at it it's hard to tell though tbh

It's weird, because @ljmontello's affidavit mentions the 2004 (Paragraph 6), 2007 (Paragraphs 7-8), and 2009 (Paragraph 9) conventions

She never claimed to be at Tekko 2010. Why are you lying?

That's just for starters

("Ex parte" is Latin for "from." An ex parte communication is one coming from only one party, not providing any notice to the other party. Basically the opposite of a letter copied to opposing counsel, filed publicly, and served via the electronic filing system.)
It is quite literally impossible to overstate how fantastically dumb Ty Beard's "ex parte" characterization is

To any minimally competent attorney, it screams "this guy doesn't know what he's doing"
JESUS AND PERCY INCLUDED A VERIFICATION, BUT DIDN'T TAKE OUT HIS LIE THAT HE JUST SWORE TO BE TRUE 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

The motion is weak and the basis is LOLable, but my suspicion is that the judge will grant it (though likely for less than 3 weeks)

Defendants will argue the burden is on Plaintiff to show good cause (the motion doesn't do that), plus ongoing harassment

Positive for the Defendants. He gives their attorneys lots of usable material

A good rule of thumb as y'all see an assortment of "bUt ThEy LiEd UnDeR oAtH" tweets from conVics is that they're typically projecting – accusing others of the things they themselves or R.Broly have done

Consider these excerpt from the R.Broly deposition...

If you have never run FB ads before the first thing you need to understand is the overall structure.

There are 3 levels, which are:

1) Campaign
2) Ad Set
3) Ad

Each one has it's own purpose, let me explain 👇👇
1) Campaign

On this level you choose the overall objective of your campaign.

There are quite a few different objectives you can pick from.

But if you are running ads for an ecom store, you'll most likely want to pick Conversions.

You can also set your budget here using CBO.
2) Ad Set

The ad set level has quite a few things you'll have to set up like:

-Optimization (For Conversion Campaigns)

-Budget (unless you selected CBO)

-Schedule (Run 24/7)

-Targeting

-Placement (Start with Auto Placements)

-Bid Type (Start with the lowest cost option)
