Tibetan / Vajrayana
Vajrayana Buddhism is most closely associated with Tibet and can be characterized by the figure of the siddha, the master whose spiritual realization is so profound that he or she has power over the phenomenal world, and in whom the profundity and vastness of absolute truth is fully and completely manifested. Many of our most well-known authors come from this tradition of Tibetan Buddhism .
[Note: The tags for the various schools are not definitive as many books span multiple traditions, etc. They are meant to use as a starting point for exploring this collection.]

Mining for Wisdom within Delusion
Maitreya's Distinction between Phenomena and the Nature of Phenomena and Its Indian and Tibetan CommentariesMaitreya's Distinction between Phenomena and the Nature of Phenomena distinguishes the illusory phenomenal world of saṃsāra produced by the confused dualistic mind from the ultimate reality that is mind's true nature. The transition from the one to the other is the process of "mining for wisdom within delusion." Maitreya's text calls this "the fundamental change," which refers to the vanishing of delusive appearances through practicing the path, thus revealing… Read More

Living Beautifully
with Uncertainty and ChangeWe live in difficult times. Life sometimes seems like a roiling and turbulent river threatening to drown us and destroy the world. Why, then, shouldn't we cling to the certainty of the shore—to our familiar patterns and habits? Because, Pema Chödrön teaches, that kind of fear-based clinging keeps us from the infinitely more satisfying experience of being fully alive. The teachings she presents here—known as the "Three Commitments"—provide a wealth… Read More

text: I went with the S&W Bodyguard 380. Much better sights and includes a laser, plus the slide locks open when the mag is empty like most autos (LCP does not). Mine has several hundred rounds through it and has been 100% reliable so far. I use the laser during target practice to check my aim while pulling the trigger, but I can shoot just as accurately at 7-10 yards using the sights alone. There are some nice comparison photos of LCP and BG here (Ruger LCP vs S&W Bodyguard .380 - Calguns.net).

Both are washed up college hockey players, except Chris is a stupid goalie. Brendan aka "Sully", is a die-hard Red Wings fan living in Arizona. Twig is a diehard fan now living in Texas.

Florida is set to be the latest state to receive Amazon (AMZN -0.6%) distribution centers ... and with them, sales tax payments. In a deal with the state government, Jeff Bezos & Co. promise to invest $300M in the Sunshine State by 2016 to build several warehouses, and create up to 3K jobs along the way. No word on when sales tax collections will start. While Congress mulls an online sales tax bill, Amazon has already begun collecting in states containing ~1/3 of the U.S. population, and is due to begin collecting from others in 2013 (New Jersey, Virginia) and 2014 (Nevada, Indiana).

Defense bill nears passage
Now that the bill has passed, it will go to a House-Senate conference committee next week to bridge differences in their respective versions, and then to the White House."This is the best we could do, and it's the cleanest we could do," and the bill needs to go to conference, said Carl Levin (D-Mich.), Senate Armed Forces Committee chairman. The bill contains several measures pertaining to technology and procurement, including a controversial cap on government-funded executive pay of defense contractors and rules that put contractors on the hook for counterfeit parts and products that end up in the supply chain of military weapons systems and other goods.Trey Hodgkins, senior vice president for national security and procurement policy at TechAmerica, an industry trade organization, said the counterfeit parts legislation has some of the bill's biggest impact on defense IT.Among the bill's other provisions are rules designed to steel cyber defenses, improve intelligence-sharing capabilities throughout the department, implement open-source IT solutions and modernize DOD's complex and antiquated business systems.According to the bill, the Defense Secretary will be held responsible for developing and implementing a plan to augment DOD's cybersecurity strategy by acquiring advanced tools for discovering and isolating intrusions and protecting DOD networks and gateways. That section of the bill also calls for beefed up security capabilities for the Defense Information Systems Agency and the U.S. Cyber Command as well as for DOD's host-based security systems. DOD is to use commercial solutions for the cyber capabilities whenever possible, according to section 913 of the bill.The NDAA includes a section titled "program in support of DOD policy on sustaining and expanding information sharing," although in that particular section, 932, the bulk of content refers to capabilities to protect internal information and detect and prevent any personnel exporting information from classified networks or other internal security threats.However, two other separate sections (923 and 924) do contain language targeting improved information-sharing capabilities: an open-source ozone widget framework to be facilitated by DISA, and plans for enhanced search capacity for the Defense Intelligence Information Enterprise (DI2E), used by the federal intelligence community.Under section 923's guidance, DISA will be responsible for "implementing a mechanism to publish and maintain on the public Internet…the information on, and resources for, the ozone widget framework," permitting individuals and companies to develop and field open-source tools and applications for DOD. Those resources will include programming interface specifications, a developer's toolkit and source code – which also must be open to outside contribution of potential improvements.The DI2E provisions include a pilot program for the intelligence community that will demonstrate lightning-fast, enterprise-wide query capabilities across "numerous, large, distributed" databases. The pilot would incorporate the required multiple levels of security and operate on both structured and unstructured data, according to the bill. A report on the pilot program will be due to Congress by Nov. 1, 2012.Finally, the bill is taking aim at DOD's numerous, redundant business systems, calling on the DOD deputy chief management office to establish an investment review board and management process by March 15, 2012 that will review all facets of DOD's business systems. The board is designed to include seats at the table for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the DOD CIO and other DOD agencies.The goal will be "a target systems environment, aligned to the business enterprise architecture, for each of the major business processes conducted by DOD as determined" by the DCMO, per section 1002 of the legislation.

When McCoy is offered $10,000 by the rich and eccentric Hume (Ron Weyand) to recover some stolen diamonds, his pal Springy (Larry Block), a character with a computer-like mind for sports trivia, helps unearth some important clues. As Bolton (Beeson Carroll), a health club bouncer, leads McCoy to Felix (Alex Wilson), president of an export company, gourmet-syndicate head Dottore (Georgio Tozzi) provides further information. When Alexis (Dyan Cannon), hires him to investigate her brother, McCoy uncovers a hidden arsenal. Although beaten and pursued by thugs, McCoy takes comfort in an affair with Alexis. After Springy is murdered, McCoy learns that Lt. Col. Hardcore (John Ryan) is involved in a scheme to sell army surplus tanks and guns on the black market. And when Hardcore is assassinated and Felix killed by one of Dottore's men, McCoy finds that all the evidence points to the fact that Hume is after a prize much bigger than just diamonds.

Former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky will be appealing his convictions on dozens of counts of child sexual abuse, his defense team says.
After a trial that featured graphic testimony from eight victims, jurors late Friday found Jerry Sandusky guilty on 45 of the 48 sexual abuse counts.
The eight victims, now young men, testified that they were boys when Sandusky forced them to engage in sexual acts over the course of 15 years.
After being found guilty, Sandusky, 68, was taken immediately to the jail in Centre County, Pa. He will be sentenced officially in about 90 days.
He likely will be sentenced to serve the rest of his life behind bars.
Sandusky's defense team plans to file a motion for appeal, claiming he had ineffective counsel, based on lawyer Joe Amendola talking to the media.
A linchpin of the appeal will also be prosecutor Joe McGettigan's statements during his closing argument, when he told jurors that Jerry Sandusky could have proclaimed his innocence during an interview with Bob Costas on NBC.
That violates Sandusky's right to post-arrest trial silence, his camp argues.

Patterns Shifting: on the subject of climate change, a Northfield focusSubmitted by Amy Acheson on Thu, 01/16/2014 - 5:53am
On Saturday, January 18th, Northfield will host its first community-wide discussion on the subject of climate change. Meteorologist and entrepreneur Paul Douglas will be the keynote speaker beginning at 9:30 a.m. at St. Olaf College with a talk entitled, "Climate Change: Natural Cycle or Troubling Trend?" Attendees are encouraged to bring ideas, questions and concerns to contribute to the important discussions at this event.
According to Meteorologist Paul Douglas, "Healthy skepticism is an attribute, a necessary coping skill in a time of scams, hackers and endless corporate hype. I was initially skeptical of climate change in the 1980s and early 90s, but by the end of the 90s I was seeing some inexplicable and unnerving changes showing up on the weather maps I was studying on a daily basis. Something had changed. Patterns were shifting, with an apparent increase in the frequency and intensity of weather extremes, a trend that accelerated during the first decade of the 21st century.
Climate Summit Registration Still OpenSubmitted by Jane B McWilliams on Wed, 01/15/2014 - 9:19pm
There is still time to register for the Saturday January 18, 2014 Northfield Area Climate Summit at St. Olaf's Buntrock Commons. This event is free and open to the public. (http://northfieldclimatesummit.org/registration/ )

The panels will include attention to the local implications of cimate change and offer practical information and resources to foster ongoing diecernment and action.
For example, Robert Jacobel, St. Olaf Professor of Physics and Environmental Studies will lead a session offering participants the opportunity to learn more about the science of climate change.

State-wide demonstration by Tamil Nadu Government Nurses Association
Around 450 nurses from government hospitals in Tiruchi district carried out their duties wearing badges listing three demands as part of a State-wide demonstration by Tamil Nadu Government Nurses Association on Wednesday.
Nurses at the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Government Hospital attached to the K.A.P.Viswanatham Government Medical College were among the 18,000 nurses who pinned badges to express their demands, according to Leelavathi, secretary, Tamil Nadu Government Nurses Association.
The association has demanded that promotions should be given in keeping with the norms of Indian Nursing Council, an autonomous body constituted by the Central government, to establish a uniform standard of training for nurses.
Staff nurses in Tamil Nadu were promoted only after 30 years of service. The interval between promotions has led to a dearth of supervisors, said Ms.Leelavathi.
If the scenario persists, it may lead to compromise in patient services, felt office-bearers. The association has appealed for time-bound promotions every 10 years and creation of posts such as ward supervisors and assistant nurses.
The association has also demanded for regularising contract nurses employed in various government hospitals over the State. There are more than 6,000 contract nurses in Tamil Nadu. While the contract period is typically two years, close to 3,000 nurses have worked for five years as contract staff with minimal pay, said an office-bearer.
In Thanjavur, nurses at Raja Mirasdar medical college hospital participated.
Keywords: Tamil Nadu Government Nurses Association, nurses demonstration, time-bound promotion demand

Hello my good readers! I am so sorry that this post has taken me over a month to write out to y'all! We have been horribly busy and things got a lot worse when school started! :/ But, I am very much alive and not lost somewhere! :) :) Yaya! Anyways, my baking and cooking have slowed considerably in these past two months. But, I am hoping that it'll pick up again! :)
My older sister started college, majoring in musical recording at the University of Louisiana in Lafayette. She is getting around happily! :) And I think she likes it!
We went on vacation to Florida a few weeks back that was really needed because of our hectic schedule! It was so nice to relax on the sand in the sun… and get all burnt! Yes- I got burnt, but not as bad as I though I would. :)
Let me just say, we had an awesome and spectacular time out there at Fort Walton, Florida!!! :) :) :D
So, after that, we have had volleyball, school(which I am in my glorious sophomore year! Yay me!), and a host of other little itty bits of stuff that make up our days! So, when life just gets way too busy, what do you do? I had been trying to get to the computer and actually write a post, but the most I ever did was check on my pinterest account before we had to go off to some other lesson, practice, etc. So-what do you do to keep sane?
Well, you pray to God first and beg Him to order your life or to help you with this hectic and insane world…then you unravel on Pinterest. Let me tell you I LOVE pinterest! It is almost the best thing I ever signed up for! There are so many recipes, crafts, neat clothes ideas, etc… So, lately, I have just been hanging out with my Pinterest account, dreaming about my future life and house and home(like, I really, really want to live on a ranch when I grow up, if God doesn't have other plans in mind!), dreaming about the next recipe that I can try for Sunday dessert or Sunday dinner, dreaming about all those crafts that I could do, and also about all those clothes I could be wearing.
Oh and did I mention that I love fall clothes?? Oh yes, I LOVE fall clothes! Like, I wish I was living up north so that I could wear them all the time…no, never mind, I don't want to live up north. You guys who do live up there are really brave, because I'd be freezing up there most of the time! ;) I mean, down here, we are literally like this, while the north is like that:
HAHA!!! Pinterest funnies! :D
Anyways, I'll show y'all some of my favorite pins of this past week and then say bye and give y'all a good recipe later on because I have worked myself up to actually baking again! :) :)
Seasonal Clothes:
Main Dish:
Well, I think that is a good amount of pins for today! I hope you enjoyed, but please check out my Pinterest page for lots more recipes, clothes, funnies, hair ideas, etc. I hope y'all have a wonderful day and weekend! God bless y'all now and forever!
Yours In Christ,
Kelly C.
What is your favorite thing to look at on Pinterest??
Mine would have to be the recipes, although I do enjoy looking at the geeky stuff(e.g. Star Wars, Avengers, Captain America, etc.)!

Hello World!I just bought my first Nikon camera, a D50. Im having a great time learning how to use it as it offers considerably more flexibility than my Olympus C50. Anyway, Im especially interested in astrophotography so I setup an old tripod a couple of nights back and just started taking pictures while experimenting by adjusting the ISO, aperture and shutter speed on the D50. I used the manual focus on the kit lens and set it to what I thought was Infinite. However, when I looked at the pictures later on the computer, they were all blurry and out of focus. Was this because the manual focus was not correctly set at Infinite? How can I tell? There are no marking along the focus ring.Im anxiously awaiting the next Aurora display (I live in Alaska) and I want to have the D50 ready to go!!Thanks for your help!
Most likely, they are simply out of focus. Most modern AF lenses, particularily zooms, will focus beyond infinity for a variety of reasons. Not having the lens stop at infinity means that ;you will have to manually focus on some massively distance object (moon, planet, or bright star).Additionally, minor amounts of flare can make overexposed images of small bright objects (stars, ...) look out of focus. Also, since the earth spins making the sky appear to be moving, you will get "motion blur" in the form of streaking when the camera is stationary and the exposure is longer than about 1/30th of a second. You might check out the photo tips at Sky & Telescope's site:http://skyandtelescope.com/howto/imaging/You should even read their HowTo for film cameras; much of it applies to DSLRs also.

Film Review: Rigor Mortis (2013)
 SYNOPSIS: A public housing tenement is plunged into a dark storm of supernatural chaos. REVIEW: J-Pop star turned actor turned writer/director Juno Mak makes his directorial debut with Rigor Mortis, a decidedly offbeat but visually stunning homage to Asian horror films of the 80's. Working with producer Takashi Shimizu (Writer/Director of The Grudge), Mak has fashioned a film light on frights but heavy on atmosphere and dread. As the film begins, Chin Sio-Ho (Of 1985's … Continue reading

'Hung' Star Heche Hangs Ex Out to Dry
When asked to reveal her thoughts on her estranged ex, she replied "Can you say 'lazy ass' on TV?" Watch It
"He goes out to the mailbox and he opens up the little mailbox door and goes, 'Oh! I got a check from Anne! Oh! I got a check from Anne! Yay!' " she said of what Laffoon does for a living.
Heche and Laffoon went through a bitter divorce and custody battle, and although they reached a settlement six months ago, it rages on. The couple have a 7-year-old son together.

I can not stand this woman. She's gay, she's not, she's gay, she's not.If you ask me, she used Ellen to get famous, because its certainly not because she can act. I'm glad she has to pay alimony to her ex. God don't like ugly.
- Thursday 27 AugustBy k
I respect your right to comment but please don't bring God into this and if you do then please try to bring people to God...God loves us all...He just hates the sin in our life that keeps us separated from Him.
- Thursday 27 AugustBy hdr5150
Just wondering how you know this... How do YOU know what God likes and doesn't like? Did he tell you? Just as you claim Anne used Ellen to get famous, maybe Anne's ex did the same with her! I certainly never heard of the loser until they were getting divorced. So maybe Anne's acting isn't Oscar-worthy, I still fail to see how YOU'D know what God likes and doesn't like, particularly UGLY... perhaps you should look at yourself before you call someone else's behavior UGLY.
- Thursday 27 August
She could care less about the impact her actions and statements have on her young son.She calls her ex a lazy ass and insinuates he uses her. Isnt she the one who pretended to like p***y until she got her name in the papers, then dumped Ellen??? Isnt she the one who wandered naked and high into someone's house claiming to be some alien named Celestia? Isnt she the same one who got pregnant to a camera man on a job(Coley), then left her son for months at a time to be raised by him? Even better, she started sleeping with her married co-star on another job and got pregnant to him too! Yeah, Id say she definately knows what a user and an ass is! Letterman should have grilled her about all of that, it would have at least been interesting.

After a divorce in 1984 that I did not want I felt much the same as Anne. I was perfectly happy with dating (and I do mean dating...not living together) where I maintained my home and he maintained his. That way, if we had a disagreement I could go back to my "nest" and let things cool down. 1989 began what turned out to be a 9-year relationship before we married in 1997. We have been happily married for one reason...we promised each other AND GOD that we would never end the marriage. And neither of us would ever consider breaking a promise to Him. We know that since God is at the center of our marriage, He will not give us a challenge heavier to bear than He will enable us to carry. Day by day we understand more and more the true meaning and joy of "marriage".
I would hope that someday soon, Anne would find the true joy of marriage.

this is a talentless piece of crap that uses anyone and everyone she can to try to be an actress. Isn't her time up? If i were the Cory dude, I would do the same thing, nothing...and wait for the check to come in. How does it feel to be F*cked over Anne? Enjoy many more years Cory....

We're admonished to "keep it classy' here as we comment. I think that is an appropriate way to characterize Anne Heche's behavior on Letterman - NO CLASS!
Wow. I found her behavior shocking. Those of us who have been through a divorce with children know how difficult it is. But, trashing your ex without mercy, no matter what you think of them is just the bottom of the barrel. If she's moved on, then move on for crying out loud. Stop resurrecting it to gain some kind of points in the public arena,.
She looked horribly unintelligent and classless.
- Thursday 27 AugustBy Sissy
I agree. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how she feels about her ex, he's still her sons father and she should have enough respect for her son to not bad-mouth his daddy. He raised their son while she was working. I'm sure that boy adores his dad and one day he'll see this video online and hate her for it. She's digging her own grave. No class Anne.
- Thursday 27 AugustBy Jana
I've never like Anne Heche, but no matter - if they have a 7 year old son, and she talks like this on national TV, what does she say to him all the time about his father??? It is not up to her to destroy his love for his father. I absolutely abhor women (and men) who use their children to get back at their exes. I didn't like her before, but after this - I am disgusted by her!

After seeing the word "crucial" in a magazine ad, Boston emcee Crucial knew that the word was a great representation of his needed role in the music industry and immediately chose it as his stage name. Despite the artist's current newbie status on The DJBooth the 21-year-old rhymesayer has already released quite a few mixtapes including Lights Out and Knowledge Is King. On his Booth debut Another Day, Crucial takes it to Motown as he timidly sings along to his flip of The Supremes' 1966 hit record You Can't Hurry Love. Over his own bass-heavy, piano-laced production the New England native switches gears completely, going all in on his tone-setting first verse. You can find Another Day on Crucial's forthcoming Feel Free project, which has yet to receive a release date.

Sample Report
Imagine Hannah Wilke, Robert Smithson and Merce Cunningham living together in the same tight unit of controlled space. Upon seeing the current show of drawings at SolwayJones, you very well might come away with a vision of the three of them in divine union on a sprawling farmhouse in upstate New York, surrounded by trees and animals, yet each haunted by a hidden and unnamable force.
Hannah Wilke drew what she lived, as she lived it, and many of the works here attest to this. In Rosemount Dundrum, a soldierly array of kneaded erasers populate the picturesque landscape of a literal "picture postcard," and the implied movement of their small gray bodies across the picture field is unsettling. Many of Wilke's drawings seem bizarrely animated, as though at any moment they would spring off the page. In Rooster, Wilke has captured in charcoal and pastel, the strained violence of a bird, at once powerful and delicate.
Robert Smithson's piece Algae (1961-63) is truly a "green" composition, the word "algae" scrawled in a multiplicity of greens, and around which float images of turtles. Very funny, and like other Smithson works in this show, text is employed as a tool to facilitate movement.
Movement is definitely central to Merce Cunningham's practice, yet of all the works in this show, Cunningham's drawings are the most still. In Tiger 5-3-97 #9, a wondrous childlike hand is at work. The image is powerful in its directness. In Untitled Diptych (Frog/Flower), Cunningham's spareness of line resolves itself in the surrounding negative space, which seems to both close in on the squat little frog even as it opens out.
