Ismaili Flag & New Ismaili Constitution Of 1986
The Present Imam ordained the new Ismaili Constitution on Saturday, December 13, 1986 at Merimont in Geneva. Leaders of the jamat who were mandated to work on the new Ismaili Constitution had come from various parts of the world. It was indeed a historic occasion where the family members of the Imam, members of the Constitution Review Committee and the staff of the Secretariat from Aiglemont were present. At 11.00 a.m., the Imam ordained, signed and sealed "The Constitution of the Shi'a Imami Ismaili Muslims"
It is clearly seen in the photo of Hazar Imam when he was ordaining the New Ismaili Constitution that there was a small Ismaili flag on Imam's table, having an image of the Coat-of-Arms, i.e., the monogram of a crown (taj) on it.
It should be noted that the new Constitution does not allow any Ismaili to misuse the Ismaili flag or its colours for any other purpose. The Article of the Constitution clearly lays down that:-
(a) an Ismaili flag in the form and colours set out in the tenth schedule hereto subject to such code as to the usage thereof as may be prescribed from time to time by Mawlana Hazar Imam.
Roll Up It is a key point to note that the word "My Flag" is not referred to in the New Ismaili Constitution, but the word "Ismaili Flag" is simply used instead.
The Ismaili flag is flown on the Jamatkhana, mostly on special festive occasions, the gracious arrival of the Imam and the day when the Imam sends any farman to the jamat. As soon as the occasion is over, the flag is required to be removed and folded up. It is quite improper to keep it fluttering for days together or to use it with faded colours. It is common for flags to be hoisted at sunrise and hauled down at sunset.

Kevin Durant wears Nike Hyperfuse XDR during flag football game
The longer the NBA lockout continues, the more likely we are to see headlines like "(NBA superstar) comes to (small town where player lives close by) to play (random pickup game) Beachflag. " Kevin Durant took the first step in going beyond basketball by playing in an intramural flag football game at Oklahoma State University.
The soon-to-be-legendary-tale begins with if anybody was playing flag football at the moment. On a whim, to play in their game that was about an hour away. Sure enough, Durant suits up and plays flag football. What started out as a game with just a few onlookers became an event as people could not believe their beloved Oklahoma City superstar was in their backyard just goofing off. Durant played both offense and defense and finished with four touchdowns and three interceptions, respectively. I doubt anybody was really trying to play Durant hard for fear of injuring him and earning the eternal scorn of the state of Oklahoma.
This being a Nike blog, of course, we'd be remiss if we didn't talk about Durant's kicks. KD was rocking the which is an outdoor version of the regular Hyperfuse model. While pictures and videos don't give us an up close look, it wouldn't surprise me if Durant was wearing the same Team USA basketball model that he had on during last year's .
Rollup (BTW, I can't be the only person who thought it was funny that Durant's arm sleeves and just general color scheme resemebled the Seattle Supersonics colors, right).

Khadi the Pride of India
Khadi is an Indian fabric. Khadi is also known by another name Khaddar. It is made by spinning the threads on an instrument known as Charkha. During pre-independence era the movement of khadi manufacturing gained momentum under the guidance of father of nation Mahatma Gandhiji. This movement of khadi manufacturing and wearing started as to discourage the Indians from wearing of foreign clothes.
Khadi before independence was considered as the fabric for the political leaders and the rural people. But now it has found its way into the wardrobe of fashion conscious people. The current situation is that the demand is more than the supply. Earlier the type of khadi available was khadi cotton which had very coarse texture and feel. However many varieties of khadi like khadi silk, khadi wool and khadi cotton are available now, which makes it a fashionable fabric and likeable by the massage.
Its concept was developed by Mahatma Gandhi. It was a symbol for political agendas during the fight for independence in India against the British rule. It was primarily a means to provide employment to the unemployed rural population of India at that time. The Indian flag has to be also made from khadi material. Thus it holds national importance, we could even call it the national fabric of India.
Khadi is a versatile fabric. It has the unique property of keeping the wearer warm in winter as well as cool in summer season. This fabric has coarse texture and gets easily crumpled, therefore in order to keep it firm and stiff, starch is to be added. This fabric on washing is more enhanced thus the more you wash it, better the look. Khadi is not easily worn out for years together, at least for 4-5 years. Very attractive and designer apparel are made by doing handwork on them garments made from it. Khadi spinning is generally done by girls and women and weaving mostly by men. During spinning of khadi the threads are interwoven in such a manner that it provides passage of air circulation in the fabric. Apart from this unique property, it also provides warmth in winter season which is quite surprising factor.
Khadi cotton is required to be starched so that it does not get easily crumpled. It comes in many colors and is not harmful to the skin as synthetic fabrics. This cotton is very soothing in summer season as ample amount of air ventilation is there, it has the capacity to absorb moisture therefore it easily soaks the sweat and keeps the wearer cool and dry. Fahnen Khadi cotton comes in plain as well as in printed fabrics. The most common outfit of made from khadi cotton is theKurta. Many types of apparel are manufactured from khadi cotton like saris, salwar suits, fabric yarns, western tops, shirts, trousers, skirts, handkerchief,etc. It is a very durable fabric.
In khadi silk, the ratio of khadi and silk fabric is 50:50. This fabric requires dry cleaning. It shrinks about 3% after the first wash. It is quite an expensive fabric. Khadi silk provides a royal and rich look. The various types of apparels made from khadi silk are salwar kameez, kurta pajama, saris, dupattas, shirts, vest and jackets. Apparels like kurta, jacket, sari blouses requires lining to be given to ensure its longetivity.
Previously khadi was dyed in earthy color tones and was used to make traditional garments but now designers are experimenting by dyeing khadi with striking colors like limegreen, violet, baby pink, turquoise blue, etc. Stylish garments like mini skirts, halter neck tops, racer tops, tunics, etc are made from khadi.
Khadi is hand woven and hand spun fabric which takes time to be made. It is mainly manufactured in rural areas of India. In previous times it was considered as the fabric for the poor rural workers & farmers. But wearing khadi is no more for the poor, many high profile personalities and economically sound people prefer to wear it. It is considered as one of the most beautiful Indian fabric. The khadi wearer gets a royal and distinguishable look due to its fall and style. It symbolizes luxury and uniqueness.
Khadi and village industries commission is the Indian government body which promotes the usage of khadi. Khadi production and selling comes under the small scale industry sector. This government body was created by an act which was passed by the Parliament. This gave a boost to the khadi manufacturing sector of India, as a result many new outlets of khadi gramodyog opened all over the country. These shops sell stitched as well as unstitched khadi fabrics. Every year starting from the date- 3rd October to January 29th all khadi gramodyog bhavans provide discount to the public on various khadi products. It comes under the category of Indian handloom. This sector also generates employment for the rural population of India. Indian government conducts various exhibitions and trade fairs in India and abroad to promote this fabric.
The small scale industries engaged in manufacturing of khadi gets economic redemption for the raw materials and production costs by Indian government. According to a recent survey done it provides employment to 14.97 lakhs of people, the total annual production of khadi is 111.49 million sq. mtrs.
Khadi over the decades has moved from a freedom fighters identity fabric to a fashion garment. Today there is such an increasing demand for khadi that despite of the thousands of workers involved in spinning and producing khadi fabric, the demand of the market does not gets fulfilled.
Khadi has gained worldwide appreciation as it is hand made, durable, long lasting and organic in nature. The fabric is produced by the masses for the masses. It is associated with Gandhian philosophy as well as makes a fashion statement. Through the medium of khadi weaving, the weaver expresses art and designing by the spindle and loom. It is widely accepted in the Indian fashion circle. Leading fashion designers now include it in their collection by designing clothes with khadi material. There is huge demand of it in international market, especially in western countries.

Let The Flag Wave
There's no doubt about it; flags are cool. They show who's side your on, where you're from, or where you're going Gemeindefahne. I've attended international conventions where government flags have been displayed on name tags. From clear across the room, we could tell where a representative was from, and more importantly, what language they spoke. That made organization and problem solving a lot easier, since we could send the right attendant to assist, basically on sight.
Flaggen When I was living in Japan several years ago, there was a promotion at a well-known hamburger chain where the player would scratch two random fields off of a twelve-field scratch and play card, revealing a partial image of a government flag underneath. Luckily, we had an atlas with a page displaying worldwide flags, and so we would take that along whenever we knew we were going to be stopping at that burger place. We ate a lot of free food and drink thanks to that reference on government flags.
Later, when I was teaching Japanese at a public junior high school, all of the language classrooms were adorned with the government flag representing the nation or nations that spoke the language they were teaching. With as wide-spread as Japanese was becoming at the time, I could have easily included Brazil and Hawaii in my classroom.
Being from Wyoming, I also have a lot of pride in my home state. We may be the least populated state in the Union, but we are the home of a lot of firsts, including women's suffrage and the first national park. Whenever I see the Wyoming State Flag, I have to admit I feel both the pangs of pride and the feeling that I'm at home and safe. I've even joked that I feel more patriotic to that flag than I do to our national flag.
Our flags tell our story, from the number of states in the Union to the way we feel about our patriotic principles. The tell when our states were founded and by whom. Beachflag They inspire us and give us hope. When I sing the words of our national anthem and reflect on the feelings of Francis Scott Key upon seeing our flag flying victorious, I feel a gratitude and a joy that I really can't explain. It gives me hope that, in principle, we will carry on, and in spite of present difficulties, freedom will ring.
