Navaratna Collection the Concept and Creation of the Navaratna Navaratna Collection The concept and creation of the Navaratna Collection is driven by a passion for traditional Indian Jewellery, about its uniqueness in the way it marries beauty, craftsmanship, significance ánd look. We aimed to combine this with a fresh, Western-centred perspective and contemporary interpretation of the rich Indian visual and cultural language. Ensuring that the unique beauty and traditions of Indian jewellery will remain relevant now and for future generations, is another element that fuels our passion, which we aim to capture in our contemporary designs. These designs are respectfully and responsibly inspired by traditional themes, its culture and symbolism. We aim to marry the original value and meaning of the source theme with contemporary tastes and lifestyles in both the Eastern and Western hemispheres. As such, the contemporary pieces carry a distinctive quality that is similar to the jewellery from Van Gelder Jewellery Heritage Collection as compelling narratives are worked into wearable art.

  • American Hindu Richard Brown Recounts His Younger Years, From
    PROFILE A Rebel’s Tale American Hindu Richard Brown recounts his younger years, from fronting a rock band and dodging the military draft to becoming a monk in India and venturing into the gem business. BY AMITHA AMRANAND 34 | Masalathai.com Standing by the squeaky-clean display cases in his tiny and brightly lit jewellery and talisman shop in Villa Aree, Richard Brown, dressed in a simple short-sleeved shirt, trousers, and a rudraksha seed necklace, looked every bit a friendly, down-to-earth, nearly all-American man. A few minutes into our interview, however, Richard began the amazing story of his unconventional path and, at 66 years of age, the rebellious and principled streaks he still retains. He peppered his story with Thai and Hindu spiritual terms and spoke with vibrant indignation of certain episodes of his youth. The long-time gemologist, who studied at Gemology Institute of America, had been doing business in Thailand long before he settled in the country, travelling here to buy gems. Although Thailand is a hub for gems and jewellery, it was only part of the reason why Richard decided to make it his permanent home. “I saw that I was really happy in Thailand. When I’m in America, I’m never really happy. And so I decided I would rather live here because it’s the perfect blend of Western comfort and Asian philosophy and culture,” he said. Richard’s interest in gems has always been infused with spirituality. His business, Astral Gemstone Talismans, now with five shops across Bangkok and an online store, sells pieces with attention paid not only to aesthetics, but more importantly, to the sacred power of gemstones and their relationship with the planets.

    Environmental Impact Assessment (draft) Project No.: 44167-015 August 2020 (2 of 2) Bangladesh: Flood and Riverbank Erosion Risk Management Investment Program – Project 2 Prepared by the Bangladesh Water Development Board for the Asian Development Bank. This environmental impact assessment is a document of the borrower. The views expressed herein do not necessarily represent those of ADB's Board of Directors, Management, or staff, and may be preliminary in nature. Your attention is directed to the “terms of use” section on ADB’s website. In preparing any country program or strategy, financing any project, or by making any designation of or reference to a particular territory or geographic area in this document, the Asian Development Bank does not intend to make any judgments as to the legal or other status of any territory or area. August 2020 page i 10 ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES 368. The three sub-reaches selected for Project-2 of the FRERMIP physical works: JRB-1, JLB-2 and PBL-1, were chosen from 13 sub-reaches into which the FRERMIP program area was divided based on discussions among BWDB, ADB and the PPTA consultant. These 13 sub-reaches were evaluated using a multi-criteria assessment approach taking into consideration three primary criteria (riverbank erosion, flooding, and poverty) and several secondary criteria (related to planning, design, cost-benefit and safeguards issues). Of the six sub-reaches scoring highest1, these three sub-reaches were screened out due to a lack of active erosion and/or conflicts with other immediately planned interventions. 369. While riverbank protection was placed according to immediate needs especially for growth centers (“something to defend”), embankment construction considered alternatives especially for the area JLB-2.

Abstract: Lignocellulose is a promising feedstock for biofuel production as a renewable, carbohydrate- rich and globally abundant source of biomass. However, challenges faced include environmental and/or financial costs associated with typical lignocellulose pretreatments needed to overcome the natural recalcitrance of the material before conversion to biofuel. Anaerobic fungi are a group of underexplored microorganisms belonging to the early diverging phylum Neocallimastigomycota and are native to the intricately evolved digestive system of mammalian herbivores. Anaerobic fungi have promising potential for application in biofuel production processes due to the combination of Citation: Saye, L.M.G.; Navaratna, their highly effective ability to hydrolyse lignocellulose and capability to convert this substrate to H2 T.A.; Chong, J.P.J.; O’Malley, M.A.; and ethanol. Furthermore, they can produce volatile fatty acid precursors for subsequent biological Theodorou, M.K.; Reilly, M.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 a Abstract In this study an attempt is made to examine the developments in the history of Ceylon from the death of Parakramabahu I to the end of the reign of Parakramabahu II covering a period of roughly a century (c.1180 to 1270 A.D.)* The unity and general prosperity which the country enjoyed under Parakramabahu I gave way to dissension and disintegration soon after his death. The forces of disintegration moved on until about four decades after Parakramabahu1s death Dambadeniya emerged as a new centre of activity and of resistance to foreign invaders with the founda­ tion of a royal residence there. The difficult problems concerning the disintegration of the Poionnaruva Kingdom so soon after reaching its cul­ mination under Parakramabahu I, and the subsequent rise of Dambadeniya to importance under parakramabahu II form the subject of this study.
