Exchanges often require students to demonstrate a high degree of independence, adaptability, and flexibility because support and service may be different from a US university. Examples of differences that exchange students should be prepared to encounter include varying housing options, the amount and timing of program details, grading based less on assignments and more on final exams, and an academic calendar that may differ significantly from the University of Minnesota.
São Paulo is a major economic and cultural center of the region. International business in the Latin American context continues to drive innovation as economic and political factors evolve on a daily basis.
Surging growth in international trade with Mexico and Chile challenges U.S. businesses to find new ways to sustain this growth while meeting the diverse demands of these populations. Studying in Brazil, a nation currently among the top 15 U.S. trade partners, will allow you to meet these challenges head-on with a diverse student-peer group from around the world.
Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV) is the largest private business school in Latin America, in the largest capital city in South America. The FGV immersion experience allows students the opportunity to explore business topics in the dynamic Brazilian context. As a pioneer of business administration education in Brazil, FGV will immerse you in teaching, research, and consulting.
Students with Portuguese experience and/or a strong background in Spanish and good language-learning ability are best suited for this opportunity.
First (US spring) semester: early February to early December
When selecting a semester exchange program, students should take note of academic calendars that differ significantly from the University of Minnesota. Consider potential conflicts such as holidays, family events, graduation ceremonies, and summer jobs/internships early in the selection process.
Work with Education Abroad Advisers and the Carlson Business Career Center for support addressing challenges.
Students are enrolled in 16 S/N Carlson School International Business (IBUS 5100) credits for a semester at FGV and take a total of 8 courses to meet the minimum requirements.
Courses at FGV are offered in both English and Portuguese. Topics offered in English include:
Many other courses are delivered in Portuguese, and faculty often allow students to use English in papers and tests. FGV offers an intensive Portuguese language course to all participants of the exchange programs during the first few weeks of the semester.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — 2013 has been a tough year for many money managers. Nearly any attempt to seek diversification within a portfolio has punished as many international markets and different sectors and fixed income have been unable to keep up with the all-mighty U.S. large cap.
This has posed a problem from mutual fund managers who are tasked with the responsibility of sticking to their style box – meaning they must adhere to keeping their investments in specific asset groups. With investors becoming frustrated with varying levels of fees within mutual funds and the often inflexibility of their management, many investors are turning to Exchange traded funds as their vehicle of choice for investing.
Exchange traded funds (ETF) have provided investors with more options for their portfolio at a time when mutual funds ruled the world. These investment vehicles trade throughout the day like stocks but have a basket of holdings similar to a mutual fund. An ETF can be viewed as a specialist while a mutual fund is more like a general practitioner.
A general practitioner treats patients with everyday medical needs, one minute he might be performing a routine checkup while the next he is diagnosing the flu, they serve an important role and can user their expertise across many fields of medicine. However, a specialist is oftentimes an expert in a single field of medicine, whether it is the heart, brain or bones. Each ETF has a specialty; an exchange traded fund that tracks a technology index should not be expected to one day start investing in grocery stores or oil companies.
Investors need options, many don't want to be pigeonholed into just being able to allocate their assets to a handful of general go anywhere, invest in anything funds. This is one of the reasons for the increase in popularity of ETFs.
However, not all exchange traded funds are created equal, investors still need to be weary of the cost of owning various funds, as many ETFs track the same indices while having varying expenses.
The ugly cousin of the exchange traded fund is the exchange traded note (ETN). Although they have similar names, they are created in nearly a completely different fashion. An ETN is an investment based on a promise; unlike ETFs they do not buy or hold the underlying assets to replicate the index for which they track. According to a recent FINRA press release on the risks of ETNs, they can be redeemed by the issuer at any time, which could be at a price less than what the investor purchased it for.
Another risk that needs to be considered, which FINRA points out, is the possibility the issuer of the exchange traded note defaults, which could have an obviously significant impact on the note's price. Like all investments, there are some inherent risks that must be considered and weighed.
Asking these questions and examining the perils that we are exposed to comes with the territory of allocating capital. Some are more critical than others, but being aware of them is important.

Beyoncé's 'Run the World' Makes Chart Debut
Beyoncé returns to the charts with her first single of 2011. "Run the World (Girls)," the lead offering from the pop powerhouse's fourth album, lands at No. 33 on this week's Billboard Hot 100.
Additionally, the Major Lazer-sampled tune logged 77,000 downloads since arriving in the iTunes store last Thursday, bowing at No. 23 on the Digital Songs chart. On radio, Bey is getting some love, beginning at No. 65 on the Radio Songs chart with a respectable 18 million in audience.
The highly-anticipated video for the Switch-produced female anthem was shot over several days in California with director Francis Lawrence and will debut sometime in May.
Elsewhere on the Hot 100, Lady Gaga's "Judas" drops two spots after debuting at No. 10 last week, while Katy Perry and Kanye West's "E.T." returns to the top for a fourth week.Tweet

The family of a child pornography victim is upset after a Rapid City judge delays the sentencing of the perpetrator.
The attorney for 32–year–old Jason Wolf, who pled guilty with child manufacturing pornography, came to court unprepared for Wolf's sentencing today and asked the judge to delay the hearing.
Seventh Circuit Judge Thomas Trimble agreed, even though prosecutors objected. The family of the victim reportedly had to travel for today's sentencing.
Wolf will now be sentenced on Thursday, July 18th.

Petrol sales at record low in March
12:34am Tuesday 6th May 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
Plunging prices at the pumps failed to prevent petrol sales dipping to their lowest figure on record in late winter this year.
UK drivers bought 1.367 billion litres of petrol in March 2014, according to Government figures highlighted by the AA.
This was the lowest recorded figure, with the previous low point being March 2013 - the coldest March for 50 years - when sales only reached 1.376 billion litres.
While motorist in March 2013 had to battle the elements, they also had to contend with petrol prices of around 140p a litre.
March 2014 was a much warmer month, with prices around the 130p a litre mark.
The poor March figure means that petrol demand has dipped 24.7% in the first three months of 2014 compared with the same period in 2008 just before the recession.
Diesel consumption rose from 2.109 billion litres in March 2013 to 2.230 billion litres in March 2014. But diesel sales for the first three months of this year are only 5% higher than for the same period in 2008 despite a 40% increase in diesel-powered vehicles.
AA president Edmund King said: "Petrol sales have hit their lowest on record when pump prices were at a three-year low, the weather was relatively warm and dry, and the economy was showing signs of recovery.
"This was not the freezing, miserable, 140p-a-litre March of the year before."
He went on: "Either the fear or reality of gas and electricity price surges has triggered an avoid-the-petrol-pump backlash to balance family spending or the trauma of speculator-driven road fuel price spikes over more than three years has seared into the psyche of the UK driving consumer.
"We may find out in the next couple of months as the boilers and heaters are turned off - and drivers look forward to summer motoring and trips out."

it arrived quickly and was very easy to assemble! Very nice for small spaces.
Nice end table
derrick from tracy city, TN– Verified Buyer
I got this for my daughters room and it looks great. It was easy to put together.
It is what it is...
Shannon from Knightdale, NC– Verified Buyer
This table was about $50 and it serves its purpose of being in our guest bedroom. It was not too difficult to put together, however it was missing the stopper for the back of the drawer to keep it flush with the front of the table when you close it. The screw that holds the drawer pull was also missing so we just went to a home improvement store and got one. The piece for the back of the table was too tall and we had to shave it down at the back to help it sit flush with the table top. The drawer doesn't sit very flush and does not open smooth as it doesn't have drawer runners. It is a good piece looks-wise and if you plan on not using it in an everyday room or manner, it is a reasonable option.
Perfect for what I paid for
Matthew from New York
I like it. It is a bit smaller though than I expected, but it is perfect for what I want and what I paid for it.
Good End Table

The Natural Prozac
International yoga teacher-trainer and student of B.K.S. Iyengar, Patricia Walden, takes the second approach. Her classes are designed so that people leave feeling less depressed. For people suffering from a depression characterized by inertia and fatigue, or who are going through a period of loss, Walden recommends a practice of supported backbends and inversions. For those who experience depression with anxiety, she recommends a more active sequence of postures, modified according to experience and physical energy level, to keep them "out of themselves." The energetic postures she recommends include Sun Salutations, backbends, and inversions.
Inverted postures are particularly useful because they alter the blood flow, including lymphatic drainage and cranial sacral fluid, according to Dr. Karen Koffler, an internist who trained with Andrew Weil in the Integrative Medicine Program at the University of Arizona. "If there is increased blood flow to the area, there will be increased bioavailability of oxygen and glucosethe two most important metabolic substrates for the brain. It follows, then, that those cells bathed in a solution that is rich in the building blocks required for the creation of neurotransmitters like norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin, will be better able to produce these chemicals." In nonmedical terms, then, as we practice yoga, we may literally be feeding our brain with a healthy dose of our own self-generated neurotransmitters.
Walden tells her depressed students to keep their eyes open wide, and if they are brooding, she guides them from posture to posture without pausing in between, to generate life force and focus the mind on the body. Because people who are depressed are often shallow breathers, she encourages strong inhalations. And at the end of a practice, she suggests a brief cool down, with a pose like Setu Bandha (Bridge Pose) to elevate and open the chest.
Though Richard Miller doubts that you can prescribe specific asanas across the board for people with depression, he agrees that trying certain postures on an individual basis is a way to start. In his own work with depressed students, he might suggest several poses, then carefully observe the person in the posture. As he watches, he might see that a person's energy is blocked in areas of self-expressionperhaps the chin is tucked and the throat seems constricted. Here, he might guide the student through an asana that opens the vishuddha chakra. Or if he notices that energy is blocked around the heart, he might do heart-opening postures involving anahata chakra. Since low self-esteem often accompanies depression, postures that energize the solar plexus at manipura chakra might help. "The important thing," says Miller, "is to watch how the energy moves in the body. You might find the energy moving from the throat down to the heart because there's sadness that the person has been living in a false self and hasn't been expressing the true spirit inside."

Is anyone having a problem entering the WORLD MARKET AND HGTV SWEEPSTAKES? I have been trying to enter and every time I enter on the web page it says to enter your email address to get started. Then after entering my email address nothing happens there isn't any submit button and I tried clicking my enter button on my keyboard but again nothing happens. I have also tried to go to the World Market site and when I click on the sweepstakes button on that web site it just brings you to the site on HGTV. I would really like to be able to enter this sweepstakes so if anyone is also having this problem or has any ideas how I can enter this sweepstakes I would appreciate it if you could reply.
I just entered with the link posted above. I put in my email address and got a thank you for entering. Try again. Maybe there was a glitch when you did it before. Good luck!
it must be something to do with my computer because after entering my email address nothing happens then when I hit enter all that happens is the page reappears with the entry form blank again. I have not received any thank you for entering. So I guess I have to thank my old computer for not performing well again. Thanks so much for your help.
It works for me....

Linfinity Radio
Linfinity melds sedate, stately art rock with primal rockabilly bounce, yielding a quirky sound once described as "John Cale meets Alan Vega." The New York-based collective was founded by lead singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and conceptualist Dylan Von Wagner, following the 2004 release of his one-man band debut effort Soundcheck to Carnagie Hall. Claiming to have written a full cycle of seven full-length albums collectively known as The Manual for Free Living, Von Wagner then put together a proper band, adding guitarists Matthew Katz-Bohen and Josh Collins, bassist Nick Hundley, and drummer Conor Brooke, along with guest musicians on keyboards, strings, and horns. An introductory EP, The Manual for Free Living: Installation, was self-released in 2006 and attracted the attention of the indie label Secretly Canadian Records, which signed Linfinity later that year. The label's first Linfinity release was 2007's Live at Marcata: Demos, a limited-edition vinyl release, followed one year later by the digital EP Songs of the Weeping Willow. Linfinity then returned to the studio with producer Josh Hager to begin recording sessions for another full-length effort. ~ Stewart MasonPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Caterpillar's concerns for employee safety amid plans for a road project in downtown Peoria have diminished.
Caterpillar initially felt that narrowing Washington Street would divert more traffic along Caterpillar World Headquarters on Adams Street.
Caterpillar spokesperson Jim Dugan says had that been the case, the safety of 3,000 Caterpillar employees would be at risk.
"It appears their analysis says that is not the case," says Dugan. "Obviously the city is responsible for traffic flow in and around the city, including the downtown area. We just wanted to make sure there were no significant changes that might create an extra safety hazard for those employees."
"Our focus really is on narrowing down the traffic lane, slowing the traffic down and making the area more walkable," according to Mayor Jim Ardis. "Not only employees downtown, but visitors in Peoria."
Ardis says Washington Street construction should begin soon, and part of the project could be finished by early 2013.

STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) -- Toni Young scored a season-high 27 points, Liz Donohoe added 20 points and 11 rebounds for her fourth straight double-double and Oklahoma State advanced to the finals of the Women's NIT for the first time by beating San Diego 73-57 on Wednesday night.
Attempting to win a championship at the end of a season marked by the death of coach Kurt Budke and assistant Miranda Serna in a November plane crash, the Cowgirls (21-12) never trailed and were up by at least 13 throughout the second half.
Young made four straight shots to give Oklahoma State a 51-31 lead with 15 minutes left, and the Toreros (26-9) could never mount a comeback.
Morgan Woodrow led San Diego with 13 points and Dominique Conners scored 11 before leaving with an apparent left knee injury with just under 4 minutes remaining.

The year's best hardware, software, and cloud services
InfoWorld's Test Center unveils the 2012 Technology of the Year AwardsFollow @peterwayner
Our list includes a number of other unstoppable juggernauts that are similarly condemned to repeat the past. The iPad 2 follows the first iPad into the winner's circle. The MacBook Air is also faster and better, like the iPad the model for a forthcoming wave of competing products. Apple continues to delight us with a walled paradise built on iOS and the App Store while delivering surprises like Siri, a tool that for some odd reason makes us smile instead of poke fun as we did with the Newton. The reality distortion field lives on. All of these tools are better connected to the cloud, which in this case means the Apple-only iCloud.
The bulk of the new products in this list all live in the cloud and are thoroughly part of the cloud ecology, delivering on cloud promises. We're afraid that we'll be condemned to repeating this "cloud" word for a long time.
Triumphs of the cloud
The cloud of 2011, though, is a far cry from the cloud of just a few years ago. The tools are more sophisticated, and there are more places to turn. The customers are more sophisticated too. We're better equipped to know what we want from the so-called cloud, and that means the vendors are better prepared to deliver it. We want flexibility, simplicity, and the freedom to click our mouse three times, say "there's no place like /home," and find ourselves taken there immediately on a freshly started machine with the distro of our choice.
There's certainly no place like Amazon Web Services, a turnkey supercomputer available to anyone with a credit card. Hadoop, too, appears here in all of its glory (making the leap from Bossies fame), although it's rapidly becoming a collection of programs and distributions. Not only is there a wide range of open source tools that make it easier to run your Hadoop cluster, but there's also a growing collection of commercial tools and services to help. Clouds -- public or private -- for distributed data processing are rapidly turning into an important part of the infrastructure.
Other winning tools bring more power and convenience to Web application developers. CakePHP and Web2py have been adding features that make it simpler to build and deploy PHP and Python applications to the cloud or, for that matter, to any machine. We also took notice of application platforms Heroku and CloudBees, which have integrated versioning tools into the cloud and made it simpler to build and deploy your applications there.

Supreme Court rules in Plessy v. Ferguson
Posted May 1, 2008 3:07 PM CDT
By George Hodak
In July 1890, the Louisiana General Assembly passed a law requiring railroads to provide "equal but separate accommodations for the white and colored races."
A citizens' group determined to challenge the act enlisted a 29-year-old shoemaker, Homer Plessy, to initiate the effort.
Plessy appeared to be white but was of one-eighth African ancestry, which made him "colored" under Louisiana's "one drop" racial code. As planned, Plessy declared his race to a conductor; after refusing to move to a railcar reserved for blacks, he was arrested and jailed.
Four years later, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld Louisiana's statute, thereby validating state-sponsored segregation that endured in the South well into the 20th century. In the sole dissent, Justice John Marshall Harlan argued for a "color-blind" Constitution that "neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens."
Not until 1954, in Brown v. Board of Education, did the court take a more expansive view of the 14th Amendment, overturning the "separate but equal" doctrine enshrined in Plessy.

Avant Urbanism
"Emotional Cityness" accentuates the need to generate more empathetic and humane encounters within a city's everyday life.
Emotional cities: personalising the interaction with others /
For Paul Zak, a neuroscientist and Emanuele Castano, a psychologist, creators of the People Make Parks project, it is imperative to promote an empathic and more personal treatment within cities. By definition, empathy is an individual's mental and affective identification with another. This makes this type of encounter much deeper, and it implies more affective interactions than that of simple tolerance or respect.
Zac and Castano explore the role played by empathy and compassion in urban life. From their trench they try to encourage citizens to participate in the design, location and creation of parks, since they are convinced of the need to have more profound social encounters —parks, for example, are the perfect stage for this to happen.
Through their website, people can participate in the creation of parks. Which goes beyond merely triggering green forms of social coexistence, instead it also answers to a more precise objective: promoting "Emotional Cityness", from an empathic point of view. To Zak and Castano, empathy is essential to a city's healthy social dynamic.
The frivolity or coldness with which we treat others in our city, because of everyday hurries or distrust, makes us lose sight of that which people can be experiencing as the emotional beings we naturally are. Far from being psychologists during every encounter, this means considering people we interact with as a priority. And beyond practicing education or tolerance, they propose an activity born from genuine interest, which despite its possibly ephemeral nature, turns out to be incredibly valuable to liven and honour every individual within contemporary coexistence.Tagged: avant urbanism, urbanism, cities, large metropolis, emotional cities

Here at Palmetto Dunes, we believe that improving your golf game often times starts in your head. Our Hilton Head golf school, the Palmetto Dunes Golf Academy, offers a variety of classes that work on your mental golf game. Our head of golf instruction, Doug Weaver, is a big proponent of spending time on the mind in order to improve your skills.
"The average person is so busy, they don't have time to master the perfect golf game. Plus, every golfer is restricted by the limits of his physical skill," says Doug. "The one thing within our control, however, is how we approach an overall round, a specific hole or a given shot."Â
We offer a Mental Golf Workshop weekly, as well as part of our three-day Hilton Head golf school. Before you even come to class, you'll fill out a survey online, which takes about 15 minutes, that determines your golf personality. The result is a 24-page report that Doug uses to improve your game during the Hilton Head golf class. With the survey, you'll get an analysis of your golf temperament, golf fitness tendencies and ability to work with instructors and get customized strategies for pre-round preparation, playing shots and course management.
Doug teaches his students how to concentrate and not just think on a conscious level, but a subconscious level. But he promises, no hypnotism involved :). "It's a fun way to play golf," says Doug.
He encourages his students to envision a good golf shot before ever taking a swing and even to try putting with eyes closed, or with eyes on the cup and not the ball.
Come try Doug's methods of using your mind to become a better golf player. Read more about our 2- and 3-day golf schools and variety of golf clinics. Call us at 866-744-7558 to reserve your spot today or to book one of our South Carolina golf getaways that include lessons, tee times and accommodations.

ISKCON Desire Tree - Devotee Network
Connecting Devotees Worldwide - In Service Of Srila Prabhupada
Hare Krishna......
My name is Mudit Chaturvedi. I want to know , "What is Sin ?" .
How a normal people recognize that the work done by his or her is sin or not ?
what is the actual definition of sin? and What type of work come in Category of sin?
and How a normal people, who never read gita or any holy book make diffrence between sin or good work?
Views: 287
Hare Krishna Mudit Prabhuji, please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Thank You for a nice question Prabhuji!
Sin is to steal something and use that for our own enjoyment.
So our senses and our body does not belong to us - soul but to a Creator. When we try to use it for our own enjoyment we commit a sin. Stealing. Using something without paying the price.
Creator - God has given us this body so that we use it in His service. And He gave instructions and rules of how we can use it and please Him. And He knows that it is the only way that can make us- souls happy.
So to live according to shastras is called as sinless life.
There are different types of people - people in different stages of progress.
People with bharmanical qualities, with kshatriya qualities...shudra....
So for one to do something might be a sin but for another is not.
For example, a lion can kill and eat flesh - which is not a sin for him, but for a human being it is not allowed to do so. A great sin. Why? Because human being is given better intelligence.
Another example, vaishya - business man can lie in order to make profit (putting 25% more price) but for a brahmana to lie is not a proper thing. Truthfulness is one of important qualities for them.
Function of intelligence is ability to understand what is good and what is bad.
And intelligence gets guidance from Shabda Brahman - Knowledge which is coming from God.
So in order to know what is a sin and what is not one should STUDY.
All children are like animals - they do not have knowledge. But they study and become human beings.
Lord Chaitaya's father Jagannatha Mishra forbid his Son to go to school and study...once Lord Gauranga sat on dirty pots and seeing that Saci mata told Him that it is not good, that now Your body became contaminated...so Lord Chaitanya told that "if You are not allowing Me to go to school and study then how will I know what is correct and what is not?.."
So in this way we have to remove ignorance-darkness by gaining knowledge of Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam and then we will see everything in reality.
Your servant,
hare krishna prabhuji........
Thank you
i have one more question............
"mansik puja is puja, like that mansik paap is paap or not"
"mansik puja is puja, like that mansik paap is paap or not"
Maan means mind. So it might service on mind to the particular Deity of the Lord.
But i do not know what is that "paap".
Your servant,
hare krishna mata ji..........
paap means sin
I want to know if any bad thought come in mind is sin or not.
is thinking consider as karma or not ?
my humble obeisances Prabhuji,
in Sattya Yuga even bad thoughts were considered as sins and people used to get reaction for each of them.
But the specialty of this age Kali is that they are not considered as sin and no reaction for them. But we have to be careful and control our mind because usually comes out what is there in mind. So mind should be engaged always in remembering the Holy Names. No other way of controlling it.
It is very powerful.
I am practicing these days the next thing:
usually when i see people i see only bad, which is so painful to heart. So within mind i avoid that bad thought and try to pray for that person. And in mind touch his or her feet and beg forgiveness. And try to think that he or she is a soul and that Paramatma is sitting behind him. And that whatever fault i am seeing is only belong to this temporary body but the soul is always wonderful - all attractive. No faults and defects in soul.
And these thoughts with everyone, and helps me so much to be peaceful and avoid envy at least to some tiny extent.
Your servant,
hare krishna mata ji...........
thank u very much for your invaluable suggestion.....i will try my best ........and hope you will always guide me ...........
your servant
Hare Krishna Prabhuji,
dandavat Pranam.
You can read garuda Puran for detailed information on sin.It specilizes in that catagory.
Any normal people who has not read Gita or any sastras can never make difference between sin or good work because he does not know what actually are good work due to ignorance.
Any activity which generate bad Karma falls in the category of sin .
Say for example premarital sex, meat eating is a grave sin but nowadays it is a fashion.It is only due to ignorance of sastras.
It is said in sastras that in Kaliyuga only Chanting of Mahamantra can remove all sins if one does not commit the 10 offences of holy name.
So chant:
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
sakṛn manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayor
niveśitaṁ tad-guṇa-rāgi yair iha
na te yamaṁ pāśa-bhṛtaś ca tad-bhaṭān
svapne 'pi paśyanti hi cīrṇa-niṣkṛtāḥ(SB:6.1.19)
Although not having fully realized Kṛṣṇa, persons who have even once surrendered completely unto His lotus feet and who have become attracted to His name, form, qualities and pastimes are completely freed of all sinful reactions, for they have thus accepted the true method of atonement. Even in dreams, such surrendered souls do not see Yamarāja or his order carriers, who are equipped with ropes to bind the sinful.
Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (18.66):
sarva-dharmān parityajya
mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja
ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo
mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ
"Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reaction. Do not fear." This same principle is described here (sakṛn manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ). If by studying Bhagavad-gītā one decides to surrender to Kṛṣṇa, he is immediately freed from all sinful reactions. It is also significant that Śukadeva Gosvāmī, having several times repeated the words vāsudeva-parāyaṇa and nārāyaṇa-parāyaṇa, finally says kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. Thus he indicates that Kṛṣṇa is the origin of both Nārāyaṇa and Vāsudeva. Even though Nārāyaṇa and Vāsudeva are not different from Kṛṣṇa, simply by surrendering to Kṛṣṇa one fully surrenders to all His expansions, such as Nārāyaṇa, Vāsudeva and Govinda. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (7.7), mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat: "There is no truth superior to Me." There are many names and forms of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but Kṛṣṇa is the supreme form (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam). Therefore Kṛṣṇa recommends to neophyte devotees that one should surrender unto Him only (mām ekam). Because neophyte devotees cannot understand what the forms of Nārāyaṇa, Vāsudeva and Govinda are, Kṛṣṇa directly says, mām ekam. Herein, this is also supported by the word kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. Nārāyaṇa does not speak personally, but Kṛṣṇa, or Vāsudeva, does, as in Bhagavad-gītā for example. Therefore, to follow the direction of Bhagavad-gītā means to surrender unto Kṛṣṇa, and to surrender in this way is the highest perfection of bhakti-yoga.
Parīkṣit Mahārāja had inquired from Śukadeva Gosvāmī how one can be saved from falling into the various conditions of hellish life. In this verse Śukadeva Gosvāmī answers that a soul who has surrendered to Kṛṣṇa certainly cannot go to naraka, hellish existence. To say nothing of going there, even in his dreams he does not see Yamarāja or his order carriers, who are able to take one there. In other words, if one wants to save himself from falling into naraka, hellish life, he should fully surrender to Kṛṣṇa. The word sakṛt is significant because it indicates that if one sincerely surrenders to Kṛṣṇa once, he is saved even if by chance he falls down by committing sinful activities. Therefore Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (9.30):
api cet su-durācāro
bhajate mām ananya-bhāk
sādhur eva sa mantavyaḥ
samyag vyavasito hi saḥ
"Even if one commits the most abominable actions, if he is engaged in devotional service he is to be considered saintly because he is properly situated." If one never for a moment forgets Kṛṣṇa, he is safe even if by chance he falls down by committing sinful acts.
In the Second Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā (2.40) the Lord also says:
nehābhikrama-nāśo 'sti
pratyavāyo na vidyate
svalpam apy asya dharmasya
trāyate mahato bhayāt
"In this endeavor there is no loss or diminution, and a little advancement on this path can protect one from the most dangerous type of fear."
Elsewhere in the Gītā (6.40) the Lord says, na hi kalyāṇa-kṛt kaścid durgatiṁ tāta gacchati: "one who performs auspicious activity is never overcome by evil." The highest kalyāṇa (auspicious) activity is to surrender to Kṛṣṇa. That is the only path by which to save oneself from falling down into hellish life. Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī has confirmed this as follows:
kaivalyaṁ narakāyate tri-daśa-pūr ākāśa-puṣpāyate
durdāntendriya-kāla-sarpa-paṭalī protkhāta-daṁṣṭrāyate
viśvaṁ pūrṇa-sukhāyate vidhi-mahendrādiś ca kīṭāyate
yat-kāruṇya-kaṭākṣa-vaibhavavatāṁ taṁ gauram eva stumaḥ
The sinful actions of one who has surrendered unto Kṛṣṇa are compared to a snake with its poison fangs removed (protkhāta-daṁṣṭrāyate). Such a snake is no longer to be feared. Of course, one should not commit sinful activities on the strength of having surrendered to Kṛṣṇa. However, even if one who has surrendered to Kṛṣṇa happens to do something sinful because of his former habits, such sinful actions no longer have a destructive effect. Therefore one should adhere to the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa very tightly and serve Him under the direction of the spiritual master. Thus in all conditions one will be akuto-bhaya, free from fear.
Your Servant.
hare krishna prabhuji...
thank u for your value able guidance.....

Audio/more info here
"Famous punk bands such as The Sex Pistols and The Clash grabbed headlines as they captured the spirit of discontent in mid-Seventies Britain. Meanwhile they inspired thousands of teenagers to learn the very rudiments of music, shout about one thing or another and, if they got their act together, record a single or two before disintegrating. Punk 45: There Is No Such Thing As Society proves what diamonds in the rough those singles so often were."

PEORIA, Ill. -- There were some drunken drivers out on Wednesday, but not the dangerous kind.
With the season of Oktoberfest here, Methodist College came up with an event called Oksober fest.
The event provides information about the dangers of drinking and driving.
The State Police gave participants a chance to drive golf carts with drunk goggles on and go through mock sobriety tests.
Methodist College is a health sciences school that wants to tie in classroom education with outside experience.
They hope this event will help students better connect with their patients.
"With nursing we're always educating our patients so I think it would always come in handy with them especially when we get alcoholics, anything like that. It will throw off their perception, so I think it will be good education in the future for them," said Methodist College Senior, Emily Hahn.
Along with drinking and driving, participants also learned about addiction, and the dangers of substance abuse.

Our degree programs are designed to produce graduates who can engage the world thoughtfully, critically, and creatively. Our hope is that the coursework we require will not only provide a solid base of anthropological or sociological knowledge and a set of skills to collect and evaluate information, but also that our assignments, readings, and classroom discussions will foster a sense of engagement as citizens committed to making the world more humane and liveable.
More specifically, each of our programs has articulated a set of learning outcomes for students. These outcomes are the basis for our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our courses and our curricula.
Student Learning Outcomes in Sociology
By the time of graduation, sociology majors should be able to:
1. Describe the role of culture and social structure in shaping individual lives and be able to provide and recognize examples of this process
2. Describe the nature of United States society along major institutional axes (family, education, religion, etc.) in a comparative global framework.
3. Explain the effects of race, class, gender and other forms of difference on life chances and be able to provide at least three significant examples of these effects. In addition, students should be able to recognize the effects of difference at individual, institutional, and cultural levels.
4. Frame a sociological question of some public significance and outline a process by which the question posed might be empirically answered.
5. Locate sources of sociologically relevant information and make informed judgments about the reliability and credibility of available data.
6. Translate publicly available data (census data, polling data, etc.) into discursive English to highlight in a theoretically informed way trends and relationships between variables.
7. Read literary and non-quantitative accounts of human life in order to draw conclusions regarding their sociological significance and their value as evidence in sociological inquiries.
8. Employ broad sociological theory (what Mills calls "usable sociological traditions") to provide an original analysis of current circumstances in some sphere of society.
Student Learning Outcomes in Anthropology
By the time of graduation, anthropology majors should be able to:
1. Describe the breadth of anthropology and be able to characterize the range of anthropology's distinctive philosophical and methodological approaches with respect to other disciplines within the social sciences, natural sciences, and humanities.
2. Demonstrate an understanding of the historical development and centrality of the "four-field approach" in American anthropology, with the ability to define each subdiscipline's contributions to the whole.
3. Explain the basic processes of biological evolution and specifically, describe the evidence for humankindŌĆÖs descent from apes and the subsequent course of human evolution.
4. Describe modern human biological diversity and articulate an informed position on the question of biological races of humans.
5. Demonstrate a scientific understanding of the development and operation of contemporary ethnic/cultural variation in humans, including an appreciation of ethical concerns arising from that variation.
6. Demonstrate the ability to think holistically and comparatively in describing human life-ways using non-ethnocentric methods.
7. Demonstrate knowledge of the wide range of past and present human biocultural systems, including ecological relationships, social and cultural organization, and ideology (belief systems).
8. Assess the relative advantages and disadvantages of using archaeology as a method for elucidating culture history.
9. Understand the place of research in the development and evaluation of scientific theories in general and anthropological theory in particular.
10. Understand the importance of the mental-behavioral and emic-etic distinction in anthropological research and theory building.
11. Comprehend different research methodologies, their strengths and limitations as applied to anthropological research questions.
12. Be able to understand the use of quantitative methods in the analysis of data from all four sub fields of anthropology and have the ability to evaluate the use and misuse of analyses of quantitative data in anthropological research.
13. Articulate anthropological insights into contemporary issues of multiculturalism and diversity with reference to both past and present human biological and ethnic or cultural variation.
14. Apply ethical principles to the conduct of anthropological research and the applications of its findings.
15. Articulate an extensive and detailed awareness of the great variation in human biocultural adaptations worldwide and the implications of this variation for present-day human interactions.

Everton will be without Leon Osman for the upcoming match vs the Spurs. And Mikel Arteta is also listed as doubtful with an injury from the Derby match. Link Also out are Jack Rodwell, Steven Pienaar, Louis Saha and Marouane Fellaini. Diniyar Bilyaletdinov will likely start and we may yet see Gueye play for the Blues.
Our once stacked midfield is looking a bit thin at the moment. Hopefully this brings out the brillance in Moyes and the Blues for a difficult match away to the Spurs. COYB

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. (AP) - Legal woes are piling up for the leader of Georgia's Democratic Party.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/199UTSo) that a lawsuit filed in Gwinnett County this week accuses Mike Berlon of failing to distribute nearly $1 million from a trust he created for a friend and his son.
Berlon told the newspaper the lawsuit resulted from a miscommunication after he put the funds in long-term investments. He says he hopes to reach a settlement in the case by next week.
Earlier this week, the Georgia Supreme Court accepted Berlon's petition for voluntary discipline for violating legal ethics rules in a child support case.
Berlon has headed the state Democratic Party since 2011 and has two years left in his term.

The Pac-12 Conference has reprimanded the officials for their handling of the closing seconds in Saturday's game between Wisconsin and Arizona State.
The conference said the officials failed to act with appropriate urgency on the game's final play, when Wisconsin quarterback Joel Stave took a knee at Arizona State's 15-yard line.
Stave went down awkwardly after being clipped by a teammate and plopped the ball down on the middle of the field. Neither team was sure if he was down and Arizona State players jumped on it, thinking it was a fumble.
The Badgers tried to run a final play, but ran out of time and lost 32-30.
The Pac-12 said the officials did not quickly communicate that the ball was to be spotted so play could resume promptly.

What in the world is going on at Valley Ranch? The Dallas Cowboys now face another injury problem, as both of their punters missed practice on Wednesday.
Veteran Brian Moorman has a groin strain and did not practice Wednesday, and Chris Jones is still recovering from a sprained knee suffered Sept. 23 against Tampa Bay.
Well, to put it delicately, this certainly sucks. The team does not have a solution at the moment. They could look to sign a third punter off the street, but then you almost have to cut Moorman or Jones - I can't see that they would tie up three roster spots for this position. And the problem also impacts the placekicking, since Jones and Moorman were the holders for Dan Bailey. A new face punting would mean a new holder for Bailey, and that would be the fifth one for him in his two years with the team.
The kicking game (when the blocking holds up) has been one of the few consistent things about the play for the Cowboys in 2012. After Jones was injured, Moorman came in and had an excellent performance against the Chicago Bears. It looked like the team would be fine, as Jones was expected to be back, and Moorman was a reliable alternative if Jones wasn't ready.
But now, the Cowboys are facing that sinking feeling you get out on a dark, lonely road when you open the trunk to change a tire and discover your spare has gone flat. They do have a player with experience punting on the practice squad - but Danny Coale is injured as well, so he is no longer a possibility. Anyone pulled off the street is not going to be an option that will inspire huge confidence at this stage of things, and you certainly don't want to start asking for volunteers from the roster who punted in high school or something. Bailey has punted in an emergency, but that still leaves them figuring out who will hold for him. At least Tony Romo has experience there.
Injuries are striking players all over the NFL, but Dallas seems to have a very strange run of them at the moment. In addition to seeming to have more hamstrings hurt than there are actually legs on the team to get strained, this punter problem is just not the normal thing you see, at least as I can remember. The Cowboys may have to just see who is feeling the best on Sunday and go with him.
And if you feel a little scared by that, you are not alone.
