About this song:
Samuel Barber rejected many arrangements, of Adagio for Strings, published by G. Schirmer, such as the organ arrangement by William Strickland. However he did transcribe the piece in 1967 for eight-part choir, as a setting of the Agnus Dei («Lamb of God»).
Adagio for Strings (the string version of this piece) can be heard on many film, TV, and video game soundtracks, including Oliver Stones Oscar-winning film «Platoon», David Lynchs 1980 Oscar-nominated film «The Elephant Man», Michael Moores documentary «Sicko», «Swimming Upstream», «Lorenzos Oil», «A Very Natural Thing», «Reconstruction», and Jean-Pierre Jeunets Oscar-nominated 2001 film «Amélie». It has been heard in episodes of The Simpsons, Big Brother 2010 (UK), That Mitchell and Webb Look, The Boondocks, South Park, How I Met Your Mother, Seinfeld, ER (TV series), Red Dwarf, Big Love, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. A recorded performance by the London Symphony Orchestra was, for a time, the highest selling classical piece on iTunes. This choral version, Agnus Dei, can be heard in the soundtrack to the PC video game Homeworld (released in 1999, awarded with the Game of the Year accolade from the PC Gamer magazine). The work is extremely popular in the electronic dance music genre, notably in trance. Artists who have covered it include Armin van Buuren, William Orbit, Ferry Corsten, and Tiësto. eRa included this song in their new album Classics. Adagio is the final song on the final collaborative Peter, Paul and Mary album «Peter Paul and Mary, With Symphony Orchestra». Mary Travers had requested that Adagio be played at her memorial service. It was also played at the Royal Albert Concert Hall on the 15th September 2001 in memorial of the attacks on America that shook the world four days beforehand.
About the photograph:
Saint Pauls Cathedral, London, during the Blitz. This cathedral has survived despite being targeted during the Blitz — it was struck by bombs on 10 October 1940 and 17 April 1941. On 12 September 1940 a time-delayed bomb that had struck the cathedral was successfully defused and removed by a bomb disposal detachment of Royal Engineers under the command of Temporary Lieutenant Robert Davies. Had this bomb detonated, it would have totally destroyed the cathedral, as it left a 100-foot (30 m) crater when it was later remotely detonated in a secure location. As a result of this action, Davies was awarded the George Cross, along with Sapper George Cameron Wylie.
On 29 December 1940, the cathedral had another close call when an incendiary bomb became lodged in the lead shell of the dome but fell outwards onto the Stone Gallery and was put out before it could ignite the dome timbers. One of the most iconic images of London during the war was a photograph of St Pauls taken the same day by photographer Herbert Mason (in this video), from the roof of the Daily Mail in Tudor Street showing the cathedral shrouded in smoke.
Lisa Jardine of Queen Mary, University of London has written:
Wreathed in billowing smoke, amidst the chaos and destruction of war, the pale dome stands proud and glorious — indomitable. At the height of that air-raid, Sir Winston Churchill telephoned the Guildhall to insist that all fire-fighting resources be directed at St Pauls. The cathedral must be saved, he said, damage to the fabric would sap the morale of the country.

Седьмой урок – это полный разбор асан и поз для работы над мышцами верхней части вашего тела.
В онлайн-занятие включено рассмотрение упражнений на раскрытие мышц и устранение напряжений в плечевом поясе, грудном отделе и шее.
Вы научитесь легко и быстро раскрывать свою грудь, глубоко и правильно дышать, избавляться от неприятных болей в шейном отделе и от бича современности – постоянных головных болей, правильно отводить плечи назад от ушей и т.д.
Занятия йогой данного направления проходят традиционно – на каждом уроке проходит движение от простого сложному, в результате чего ученик познает тонкости выполнения асан и учится достигать ожидаемого эффекта.
Обучение начинается со стоячих поз, при этом каждый раз продолжительность их выполнения взрастает – так ученик постигает тонкости выполнения статических асан. Затем наступает время прогибов, наклонов, балансов, скруток и перевернутых поз – и все это выполняется в статике, с полным погружением в свое сознание и ощущения тела. Конечно же, большое внимание уделяется пранаямам. Также в ходе обучения познается особенность равномерного вытяжения тела во всех асанах, а это, по словам самого Айенгара, является одним из краеугольных камней его практики.
В конечном итоге, занятие йогой айенгара сводится к особому чередованию статических поз и коротких движений, чем и достигаются все положительные эффекты.
