Ajahn Sao Kantasilo (1859–1942) was a monk in the Thai Forest Tradition of Theravada Buddhism. He was a member of the Dhammayuttika Nikaya.
Ajahn Sao was ordained as a monk at the age of 20, entering the Maha Nikaya order. In 1887 he re-ordained in the Dhammayut order. Both ordinations were in Ubon Ratchathani Province.
Ajahn Mun Bhuridatta Mahathera was one of his most well-known students. The two were known to often travel together, wandering throughout the forests of Thailand in the “tudong” tradition of monks who leave behind the more sedentary monastery life and take up many (if not all) of the thirteen dhutanga austerities or ascetic practices allowed by the Buddha in the Pali Canon.
Ajahn Sao was greatly influenced, in his own practice and in teaching his disciples, by the methods advocated by Somdet Phra Vanarat Buddhasiri (1806-1891), one of the founders of the Dhammayut order. The latter’s teachings are found summarized in his treatise “Caturarakka Kammathana,” or “The Four Objects of Meditation That Give Protection.”
As a teacher, Ajahn Sao urged his disciples to be diligent, systematic and consistent. He taught them to wake at 3 a.m. and to practice sitting or walking meditation until 10 p.m.
He died on 3 February 1942 at the age of 82 at a monastery in Champasak Province while prostrating in front of the main Buddha image in the ubosot hall, "with full mindfulness and plenitude".
After his cremation, his bone fragments were distributed to people around the Thai provinces. According to his followers, they transformed into crystal-like relics (Pali: Sarira-Dhatu) in various hues.

# Wassiamull Assomull

Wassiamull Assomull, also known as Seth Wassiamull Assomull Mahtani, was a Sindhi workie who established overseas trading-firm businesses in Singapore, the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia), Hong Kong, China, and Australia. His international company was known as Messrs. Wassiamull Assomull & Co. The company had around fifty-two branches worldwide, with specialization in the trade of Chinese, Japanese, and Indian products (especially silk and curios). Other companies, such as those associated with D. Chellaram, M. Dialdas, J. T. Chainrai, Wassiamull Assomull, and Chotirmal, operated on a similar model based around a transnational Sindhi-origin family.

## Career

Wassiamull's family originated from Hyderabad in Sindh but migrated overseas in 1840. In 1864, Wassiamull began a textile business in Singapore and is believed to have been the first Sindhi to visit Singapore. According to Dayal N. Harjani, Wassiamull founded his company in 1866. In 1868, the company established itself in Hong Kong and began selling and exporting Chinese products, such as raw-silk, silk piece-goods, and curios, but also Indian products. The Chinese products were exported worldwide, including in India. They avoided dealing with grains, yarns, opium, and cassia. In the 1890's, Wassiamull's company began trading in Hong Kong. By the 20th century, his company grew to have sixty-four branches around the world, with twenty of them being in China. In Australia, the company had branches in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and shortly in Adelaide. The company also helped establish educational institutions in Bombay.

## Establishing diasporic Sikh gurdwaras

A civilian gurdwara was established at Queen Street in Singapore in 1912 on property purchased by a committee of Sikhs led by Wassiamull. The Sindwork firm Wassiamall Assomull donated funds toward the construction of a gurdwara in Manila in the Philippines in 1933.
# Visual schedules

Visual schedules use a series of pictures to communicate a series of activities or the steps of a specific activity. They are often used to help children understand and manage the daily events in their lives. They can be created using pictures, photographs, or written words, depending upon the ability of the child. Visual schedules are placed on a schedule board or notebook to provide a clear expectation for the child. Ideally, visual schedules are introduced with adult guidance that gradually decreases with time. They are frequently introduced as a component of speech therapy, but can also be used at school and at home.
A recent online survey found that 43.2% of parents of autistic children use visual schedules.

# Kite-Eating Tree

The Kite-Eating Tree is a fictional tree in the Peanuts comic strip created by Charles M. Schulz. In the comics, when Charlie Brown attempts to fly a kite, the kite always ends up tangled in the tree. In an editorial from 1964, the U.S. Catholic stated that Charlie Brown's encounters with the Kite-Eating Tree represent "defeat, but not capitulation" because Charlie Brown "refuses to concede that the impossible won’t someday happen—that he will manage to get the kite in the sky, where it belongs."
Schulz considered the tree one of the series' 12 major set pieces. He created the tree in response to his experiences with kites getting caught in trees, both as a child and when flying kites with his children. He stated that the kite "usually disappears over a period of several weeks. Now obviously the kite had to go someplace, so it seemed to me that the tree must be eating it."
In the first series featuring the Kite-Eating Tree, which ran in April 1956, Charlie Brown's anger is directed at the kite, with the punch line that he is satisfied only when he and the kite are both soaked in a downpour. This instance was cited as demonstrating that the "humor of Peanuts lies in the extremity of bad luck the characters" face. In a 1977 series, Charlie Brown bit the tree, after which he received a legal notification from the Environmental Protection Agency. In yet another series in January 1969, Lucy becomes so enraged at Schroeder continually ignoring her that she seizes his piano and throws it up into the tree, which proceeds to devour it. In later comics and animation the tree appeared with a visible mouth, at times grinning or reacting to Charlie Brown's tirades.
The Kite-Eating Tree has played a part in adaptations of the comic strip, including the musical You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown (1967) and The Peanuts Movie (2015). And it is featured as part of a ride at Camp Snoopy, the Peanuts-themed area within Knott's Berry Farm. At the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center, a tree in the courtyard is designated as a representation of the Kite-Eating Tree.

## In popular culture

In the Robot Chicken episode "Vegetable Funfest" in the skit "The Time of the Great Pumpkin", a parody of It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown where Linus summons the Great Pumpkin using black magic which goes around killing the Peanuts characters in a horror movie fashion. The last survivor Charlie Brown flees to the Kite-Eating Tree which ends up eating the Great Pumpkin, saving Charlie Brown's life and ending the Great Pumpkin's rampage.
