With time, Lakhi’s age caught up with her, and she showed signs of slowing down, old injuries got inflamed and she seemed to prefer resting against the mud beds in her enclosure. Late Saturday evening on the 3rd of March, she seemed more weary than usual, and even as her knees buckled under her, Asha and Coco rushed to her side to support her. Asha appeared calm and strong, as if she knew in her own way that this was it – Coco panicked initially, rushing about and running circles around her fallen friend. The team rushed in, the crane was called in to lift her back to her feet and support her – the elephants moved aside and watched, Asha touching them gently as they huddled together. They stood back as the team tried to get her back to her feet, even the younger elephants seemed uncharacteristically calm. Maybe they knew, maybe they realised it was time to let go and had their chance to say their goodbyes, and wanted to let her pass in peace. Lakhi resisted being lifted, as if she too knew her time had come. She let out her final breath and slumped down against the mud bed, eyes shut looking like she was completely at peace. As the team moved away, heartbroken, Asha rumbled loudly from where she was standing, but none of the elephants moved – Coco let out a small wail, and from every enclosure elephants responded softly with rumbles, trumpets and huffs all the way from the bulls to the closerby females like Phoolkali like an orchestra of calm, reassuring solidarity for their fallen friend.

An easy way to describe an aerial cartwheel would be a cartwheel with no hands. However, when you go to learn how to do an aerial cartwheel, you quickly realize that doing an aerial cartwheel is much different than doing a cartwheel. The first reason is that an aerial cartwheel gets its power from the gymnast’s legs, whereas the cartwheel uses the gymnast’s arm muscles. So in order to learn how to do an aerial cartwheel, the gymnast has to strengthen and use different muscles.
Another reason why an aerial cartwheel is much different than a regular cartwheel is that it is much more difficult to learn. While the aerial cartwheel is no longer in a compulsory floor routine, it can be used to fulfill the Level 6 Floor requirement of a salto or aerial element. Many gymnasts also use it in their routines at more advanced levels.
If you have ever felt unmotivated to workout, Aerial is the cure. Just imagine being suspended in air... Your heart is pounding. And now you do a stunt you thought only acrobats could do! Honestly, you'll forget all about the workout. Instead you'll enjoy the challenge and overcoming it in a safe environment. Safe, fun and exhilarating. It's a workout you can't find anywhere else.
Aerial silks are more than just a fun activity with poses that look beautiful on camera. Silks provide a range of health benefits that target your physical strength, figure and mood. All of which can be improved through regular participation in aerial silks, as well as other aerial arts. This week’s blog will review exactly what your body can gain by taking part in aerial silks classes.
The Secret Life of Tigers documents the family life of three tigresses and their cubs from soon after birth to adulthood. An extraordinary account if records for the first time the active role the male tiger plays as a father.
From the facts behind the NSA spying scandals ("Big Brother") and the Boston Bombings ("American Terrorists") to America's secret prisons, Scientology, the Gold conspiracy and America's doomsday plans, this series features in-depth interviews with top journalists, law enforcement officials and whistleblowers.
George Orwell said in 1984, "If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself." Or, if it's absolutely gnawing at you and you can't keep it inside another minute, just say "screw it" and set it free -- anonymously on Secret, Silicon Valley's hottest new confessional-style social networking app. You know you want to.
Secret, which launched on Jan. 30, only three weeks ago, with the fitting tagline "Speak Freely," wants you to cut to the chase already and blurt out what's on your mind. In fact, the sole purpose of the free (and exquisitely freeing) incognito self-tattling app is to give you carte blanche to spill your guts in a fun, safe way that doesn't disclose your identity. Phew! And that's just what users, many of them techie types, entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, from Northern California all the way to the tip of Florida, are doing like wildfire.
Users, cloaked in the emboldening safety of anonymity, are taking to the addictive, gossipy social platform in droves to blow the lid off of some lurid, juicy mea culpas. According to USA Today, tech journalists are using the controversial app to admit accepting bribes to pen articles (gasp!) and startup founders to dish dirt on their investors and, of course, on their minions, too. A married VC even took to Secret to come out of the closet, also according to USA Today.
