Swami Nirviseshananda Tirtha evinced a strong inclination for the spiritual path from a very young age. At 24, he got initiated into Brahmavidya from Baba Gangadhara Paramahamsa of Dakshinkhanda, West Bengal. Even though he chose the academic path, Scientific Quest and Spiritual Pursuit have been complementary to each other in his search for the Ultimate Truth.
Regarding this experience, Swamiji says, "As soon as I started studying Physics, I fell in love with it. Physics used to give me the joy of expansion, the joy of dispassion or impersonality. If we are able to integrate the fundamental philosophy of Physics into our vision of life and the world, then it will certainly generate impersonality, impartiality and humility in our mind."
After a PhD in Physics, he became a scientist and assistant professor in the Indian Institute of Technology – Kharagpur. By then, his spiritual quest had become very intense and was manifest in every aspect of life. In 1987, he renounced his household and professional life, and dedicated himself wholesomely to spiritual pursuit & societal welfare under the guidance of Swami Bhoomananda Tirtha.
Swami Nirviseshananda Tirtha's special focus has been to expose the concepts and ideas from Vedanta in a very simple and practical manner, sometimes with schematic diagrams, without compromising on the depth and profundity of the subject. Swamiji's rational exposition of the Upanishads and the Bhagavadgeeta coming from his deep experiential knowledge of Truth has helped people from different walks of life to apply spirituality in all life-situations.
Swamiji revels in exposing the lofty dimensions of human mind enshrined in our Country's literature and culture. His rational analysis of Hinduism have helped many discover their real cultural roots, which not only have reinforced their understanding, but also have enabled them to pass on the legacy to their children. The series of presentations entitled 'Science and Spirituality' have helped scientists, researchers, and academicians among others discover the real purport of spirituality.

Woodland Walk to Enjoy Fall Colors
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 16, 2011From last weeks "Indian Summer" weather with above normal temperatures, highs in the 70's, winds from the southwest, sunny days and bright fall colors, especially in the Longenecker Gardens, we are now experiencing cooler weather with highs in the 50s, occasional rain, and strong northwest winds. With the change in weather the earlier many of the more colorful leaves have fallen. We have returned to more typical October fall weather it appears our peak of fall colors was before mid-October this year.
There are still some reds in the sumacs, maples, virginia creepers and woody trees, shrubs and vines. But many of the yellows visible last week in the birches, ashes, hickories, aspen, black cherries, cottonwoods, etc. are more visible underfoot than up in the trees. With rain, strong north and west winds many of these leaves have fallen.
Why do the leaves fall this time of year and why do they turn so many different colors? The advantage of leaves falling is reduction of leaf surface during the dry season of frozen temperatures when water is scarce because it is frozen. Cold air is often dry and frozen soils yields little water to roots. Leaf fall occurs with colder weather. It is triggered partly by shortening day length in fall that causes a layer of special cork cells called the abscission layer to form at the base of each leaf stem. As the layer forms, it slows down the supply of water from roots to leaf and the leaf begins to dry up before falling off the tree. The drying out interferes with the making and repairing of chlorophyll. During this period, with the supply of chlorophyll gradually dwindling, its masking effect slowly fades away, revealing the presence of essential yellow pigments. These pigments are carotenoids, which give yellow and orange and other hues. Carotenoid pigments contributed to the brilliant yellow and orange color we saw last week in the birches, aspens, hickories, ash, black cherries, cottonwoods, and some of the red and sugar maples.
The anthocyanins are a group of pigment molecules that also occur in cooler weather with shorter days and longer cool nights that contribute to the red, purple and blended darker brown colors in fall leaves. Sugar made by photosynthesis in the chlorophyll molecules by day normally is transported down through the leaf veins and stalk into branches, bark and roots, where it is stored as food for next year. But cool weather and shorter days slows down the flow, while bright sunny days in fall enable the leaves to make sugar. In the last few days before the leaf stem waterproof abscission layer is complete, while chlorophyll remains, sugar accumulates in such quantity that it interferes with the living cells activities and is converted into other compound molecules, including anthocyanin. The development of anthocyanins depends on the breakdown of sugars in the presence of bright light as the level of phosphate in the leaf is reduced. The brighter the sun's light, the greater the production of anthocyanins and the more brilliant the fall color display. When fall days are bright and cool and the nights chilly, but not freezing, the brightest deep fall colors develop.
This year the early "Indian Summer" days brought out more brilliant colors than usual, in part due to the above normal temperatures and in part due to the stress of about two weeks without rain. When trees are stressed, either by drying from lack of rain or by a quick frost or from other factors, perhaps related to soil or things yet to be discovered, fall colors are usually more brilliant.
On our walk today we could see as many colorful leaves under foot on the trails as still up in the trees. We could also see many woody plants with green leaves, most of which are nonnative invasives. Many of these plants do not change leaf color in response to our changing seasons. Instead they remain green until the leaf cells are killed by freezing and then fall during the winds of November or during winter.

Large retail store operated on a self-service basis, selling groceries, produce, meat, bakery and dairy products, and sometimes nonfood goods. Supermarkets were first established in the U.S. during the 1930s as no-frills retail stores offering low prices. In the 1940s and '50s they became the major food marketing channel in the U.S.; the 1950s also saw them spread through much of Europe. Their growth is part of a trend in developed countries toward reducing cost and simplifying marketing. In the 1960s supermarkets began appearing in developing countries in the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, where they appealed to individuals who had the necessary buying power and food storage facilities.

Student–instructor communication was examined in freshman biology classes taught either in traditional lecture style or by using a variety of student-centered, active learning approaches to engage students in the learning process (cooperative learning groups, wireless microphones, permanent name tags, in-class and out-of-class writing). In both classes students were encouraged to send questions, comments, and suggestions to the instructor via e-mail. In the active learning class, students also wrote in-class notes to the instructor. All messages could be classified as either content-related or procedural. More content-related messages were received in the active learning class than in the traditional class. Also, the percentage of students who sent content-related messages was much higher in the active learning class than in the traditional class. Finally, content-related messages from students in the active learning class were generally more thoughtful and insightful than those from students in the traditional class.

To expand sales of their lamb and goat meat, Larry Jacoby and Judy Moses built new connections with the growing populations of Mexican and Somali immigrants in western Wisconsin. Their effortsadvertising in multiple languages, promoting visits to their 140-acre farm in Downing, WI, and attending customer weddings, among themhave resulted in a substantial increase in annual sales.
We like working with a variety of people, it fits our interests intellectually, said Judy Moses, who, with husband Jacoby, received a SARE farmer/rancher grant to explore new ways to promote to culturally diverse customers. Once you get into their network, you're in. When we have goats for sale, the word spreads quickly and customers come.
Now, they sell almost all of their goats and about 40 percent of their lambs to ethnic customers at premium prices. In busy periods during the Muslim month of Ramadan, Christmas and New Year's holidays, monthly sales of adult goats, kids, and 80-pound lambs surge. In 2005, they sold more than 500 live goats and lambs during the holidays at an average of $100 each.
Moses and Jacoby learned a lot over the 2 years of their grant project about how to reach new customers, many of whom speak limited English, come to the farm at all hours, and want to slaughter their animals according to religious customs.
Moses' co-worker at her off-farm job, a Somali native, sparked the project by suggesting that local Somalis, many of whom work at a Barron, WI, turkey processing plant, craved fresh goat meat. While Moses and Jacoby tried ads in ethnic magazines, established a multi-lingual website and posted information on bulletin boards and tourist information centers, the word-of-mouth method brought the most customers. A friend who worked at the processing plant encouraged some of her Somali co-workers to visit Moses' and Jacoby's Shepherd Song Farm, where they raise a bout 400 goats and 300 lambs annually on pasture.
In keeping with tradition, the Somalis wanted halal slaughtering practices involving a Muslim imam. Moses found a State-inspected processor 14 miles away willing to slaughter goats in the preferred manner with the local imam present to supervise. Moses and Jacoby adapted in other ways, too, growing accustomed to unannounced visits from families, some of whom liked to pick up animals in the midst of the winter holidays. Many of those visitors bought 10 to 20 goats at one time. They even bartered occasionally, with Jacoby swapping lamb for a new pair of leather boots imported from Mexico, among other items. Customer relations soared.
Mexican and Somali families have sought us out, Moses said. These families purchase something more than fooda memory of their heritage while strengthening family bonds.

This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2009) |
Missionary Ridge is a geographic feature in Chattanooga, Tennessee, site of the Battle of Missionary Ridge, a battle in the American Civil War, fought on November 25, 1863. Union forces under Maj. Gens. Ulysses S. Grant, William T. Sherman, and George H. Thomas routed Confederate forces under General Braxton Bragg and lifted the siege of the city.
Missionary Ridge runs basically north-south for several kilometers and varies in width from a few meters to over 200 meters, with very steep, nearly vertical sides that rise over 100 meters from the ground surrounding it. Missionary Ridge was so named for the early missionaries who made their way along paths climbing the ridge on their way to Brainerd Village to the settlement of the Cherokee. It was also referred to as "Mission Ridge" in the early years.
The southernmost end of the Ridge extends into Georgia. The Ridge was slightly east of the city at the time of the battle but now, due to urban growth and annexation, it largely bisects the city. A 1/4 mile section of the Ridge was blasted away during construction of I-24. This is known locally as the "Ridge cut." The cut's sharp curves and steep grade are often a factor in accidents and congestion.
The Ridge today is an affluent residential area with many plaques and monuments to the battle, some of which are in the yards of residents, but most of the larger of which are surrounded by small reservations which are part of Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park, administered by the U.S. National Park Service. Crest Road follows the summit of the ridge for nearly its entire length.
Like many urban areas in the South, Missionary Ridge is notorious for its kudzu infestation. The city of Chattanooga has undertaken a trial program using goats and llamas that graze on the plant. In 2007, the goats grazed along the Missionary Ridge area in the east of the city[1]

Support and Rehabilitation
One of the most important things to the Graduate and Professional Academic Honor Council is our belief that supporting a student is essential for learning and rehabilitation, and supporting a faculty member can enrich their professional growth.
A philosophy we love is that the process of going through a GPAHC review board is not meant to be seen as a punishment for the student(s), but rather an educational learning opportunity for us to come together as a community to address the situation in an unbiased and safe environment.
- The GPAHC Coordinator and review board facilitator are available as sources of support to help guide the student in a positive direction and to reinforce the difficulties an instructor faces when reporting a student. Our goal is to provide a safe environment because being reported and reporting a studnet can be an emotional and stressful time.
Another part of the learning process for students is to go through the ACH Integrity Seminar.
- Students who are found in violation are required to attend this seminar to remove an "X" from their transcipt, that indicates an academic honor code violation has occured. This seminar is rehabilitative in nature, and receives a high percentage of positive feedback from students who have gone through the process. To learn more, please click on Integrity Seminar.
- Reporting a student can be a difficult time for instructors so our Coordinator is a trained counselor in order to appropriatley address your concerns.

text: Hello. Forgive my errors or transgressions if any. I subscribed to this list wondering how security problems are handled before installing LFS. I am at a total loss here as to what is being described. I am also to a total loss as to the workaround (running xdm). This is a home linux box that everyone in the family uses (6 yr. old prefers kde, 15 yr. old prefers gnome, etc.) Graphical login managers provide a simple solution to this situation. Does this mean I shouldn't bother w/ LFS? Do these kinds of problems get resolved at a later point, or is it just another gearhead deal of running linux? Presently I run MDK 8.2., was upset i actually spent money on suse 8.0. I want a clean Linux that is only doing things I told it to do so I thought of LFS, but was afraid security issues would be left behind. Suggestions?

Tagged: B.o.B.
So, at this point in his career, it still seems like a pretty bold move for Atlanta's B.o.B to name a mixtape Fuck Em We Ball, considering that he became such a mainstream music darling so quickly just a few short years ago with the The Adventures of Bobby Ray and last years Strange Clouds. But it also goes a long way to proving B.o.B.'s versatility: being able to go from spitting authentic ATL slang over bass heavy beats to singing harmonies and strumming guitars is no easy feat, even in today's world of blurred and nearly non-existent lines between genres in pop music.
Fuck Em We Ball is a mixtape full of gems showing Bobby Ray at his diverse best, from the braggadocios machismo of "Champaign" to the delicate guitar licks and harmonized chorus of "Be There". True, B.o.B. isn't the most lyrically in depth emcee, but that doesn't quite matter on tracks like "Fuck Em We Ball", as B.o.B. rides the staccato filled beat to a tee, effortlessly weaving his way through the sped-up constant changes that the track presents.
Though Drake is seemingly lauded and criticized for being the pinnacle of the 21st century singer slash rapper, B.o.B. stakes his claim to the title throughout Fuck Em We Ball. Especially on the Snoop Dogg-assisted "So Blowed" Bobby shows off his signature chops by refraining from the rhymes for a moment and getting his R&B on. And joints like the aforementioned "Be There" and "Roll One Up" give B.o.B the space to do much of the same in the way of crooning.
Overall, is Fuck Em We Ball groundbreaking or mind blowing? Not by a long shot. It's just a fun romp by a successful emcee bridging the gap between his recent pop music, VH1 Top 20 countdown accomplishments and his next full-length project. But judging from the diverse collage of good music found on this joint, fans can wait confidently for the next B.o.B. album while enjoying some of his best, most unconstrained work in a while.
This past week, the 2011 BET Hip Hop Awards was watched by millions, and actually received some critical acclaim for its diversity of acts, stellar performances from the likes of Lupe Fiasco, Erykah Badu, B.o.B., Rick Ross and Big Sean, and top-notch lyrical skills in what has become the shows main draw, the cyphers (where careers can actually be made and/or broken.) And I've got to commend the network for the good job they did on the Awards show (even though I'm not forgiving them for the years of horrendously horri-awful programming they've subjected many of us to for a while.) But what I saw actually got me to thinking about a conversation I had with a fellow entertainment professional a few months ago. In talking to said person, we began discussing some of the ideas we've had for companies, as well as some of the music, business and music business websites we follow on a regular basis. Ultimately, the conversation turned towards the following idea: Where are the sites that dedicated to the BUSINESS side of the hip hop music industry?
Seems like a fair enough questions when you survey the landscape of music business resources. And honestly, I'm sure there are a few of them out there that may actually do a descent job of covering both the entertainment side and the business side of hip hop music. But (and this is merely one man's personal opinion) when it comes to hip hop websites, I personally can see why someone would think that there aren't many resources out there to turn to get a better understanding of the business of hip hop. The person I was having this conversation with ultimately said that he believed the hip hop community could benefit from a website similar to, say, Hypebot, Artisthouse Music or Black Enterprise, just with more of a focus on hip hop music and everything that goes into the business of it.
Is that a valid argument? Would there be a market for a website/company like that to exist? Or would it contribute to the saturation that we're currently experiencing in terms of online music outlets? We can give all of these questions a pretty big "MAYBE, MAYBE NOT…" But here's something that at least does carry some validity: hip hop is a billion dollar musical juggernaut that isn't going away any time too soon, and the more people who want to get involved in it know about the history of its business practices, the power brokers, the better off the music and the culture will be. Sure, we've got tons of great hip hop websites, blogs and online magazines that cover the music and the culture with great vigor and passion. But it's becoming more and more important to see beyond the glitz, glamor, celebrities, gloss and posturing that many take at face value. There's a whole machine that makes the engine of hip hop run, and its fuel comes from promotions, digital distribution, press and publicity, design, research and development, journalism, branding, social media, networking and entrepreneurship. The folks that control these areas are the REAL power players, and not necessarily those that you see on in the public eye all of the time.
Ultimately, there's a whole lot more to the game than just the music. So, maybe it is high time for a major hip hop website that focuses on the business side of things to be brought to fruition. Only time will tell if the dream comes true.

Our culture has a complicated relationship with sex. The story varies slightly depending on where you are in the country, but the basic idea is that it's a little like watching a giant car crash: you feel guilty watching, you know you're not supposed to be entertained, but secretly you find it thrilling. Even some of my most liberal, forward thinking friends have uncovered hidden beliefs that sex is shameful.
It's tragic, really, that something so natural and beautiful has been perverted so deeply in the name of controlling the masses. It's tragic that something with the capacity to open your heart and your mind has been corrupted so fully. It's time to take back sex for ourselves.
Great sex has the ability to make you lose yourself and merge with the Divine. That's what happens when you orgasm- you lose yourself. And that's why thousands of people study and practice Tantra- to learn how to control the flow of energy through their bodies to expand the orgasmic experience. Most people, when they think of orgasms, think of their genitals. But orgasms can be so much more than that.
Taking back sex starts as an inside job. It's a three step process.
- The first step is to gain an appreciation of your physical body. I mean right now, appreciate all the parts of your body. Not when you lose those ten pounds, not sucking in your gut, not when you have make-up on, and for guys, not when you're hard and just back from the gym. It's impossible to have great sex when you're hating on some part(s) of your body. Go and stand in front of a mirror naked. Look at your body and pick a part you don't usually love. Make a decision to love that part right now. You'll feel resistance, but stand there, looking at that part with love, until you feel the resistance begin to soften.
- The next step is about understanding how your body works. You can't expect your lover to make you come if you don't know what turns you on. Nearly everyone masturbates, but very few people make love to themselves. Instead, they masturbate just to relieve tension. It's viewed as something that just has to happen, and quickly. The next time you feel the desire to masturbate, make love to yourself instead. Prepare as if you would for a lover. Put on soft music, take a shower, light some candles. Explore your body like it was the body of a new lover. Discover new ways to touch yourself that feel good. If you're in a relationship, share what you discovered with your partner so they can try it on you.
- The third step is about trust. None of the three steps is a quick fix, but this one may be the most challenging. The good news is that every step you take toward trusting more deeply improves your relationships. You don't have to be perfect to make it work. The reason trust is so important is that you'll never allow yourself to fully surrender to the experience if you don't trust yourself or your partner. Here's a secret most people don't know: you can trust more deeply by simply making a choice to trust. Pick one thing you don't trust about yourself or your partner. Then say, "Although I haven't in the past, I now choose to trust that (insert the thing you picked)".

Desert Reign (March 1, 2013) |
Good news Jimmie Johnson fans, five-time won the Daytona 500. Bad news everyone else, now we head to one of JJ's best tracks, the Phoenix International Raceway.
Johnson is a four time winner at PIR and always seems to find his way to the front at this race. But there is also some good news for the field. He hasn't won at Phoenix since 2009. And the Sprint Cup is now driving a completely different car.
"Definitely a great start for the team," said Johnson. "When we were sitting discussing things before the season started, we felt good about the 500, but we're really excited for everything after the 500. So, very hopeful and excited that our No. 48 car will be really fast in Phoenix, Vegas, moving forward. I think it's going to be a very strong year for us."
A tough Daytona has left a number of drivers in need of a good run at Phoenix, including Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne, Matt Kenseth and three time winner at PIR Kevin Harvick.
"I've been on both sides," said Harivick. "Sometimes you go back after winning a race and you run terrible, other times you go back and run well. This year we have a new car and a lot of new things to deal with, you to have an open mind on how to approach the weekend. Obviously, running the NASCAR Nationwide Series race will help by providing a little extra track time, but Phoenix (International Raceway) was a good track for us last year. We finished first and second in the two races last season, so we're going back expecting that we'll run just as well."
Stewart Kahne and Kenseth also have PIR wins, along with Denny Hamlin, Kurt and Kyle Busch, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., Carl Edward, Mark Martin, Jeff Gordon, and Jeff Burton.

Technically, London broil is not a cut per se, but a method of cooking that involves marinating, then grilling or broiling a tough cut of meat (traditionally flank steak) to medium rare, and cutting it against the grain into thin slices. That said, in the supermarket you will often see steaks labeled London broil. This name most commonly refers to two different boneless cuts, the top round (pictured), which comes from the upper leg, and the chuck shoulder steak. We generally use top round because it is widely available and simpler to carve than chuck shoulder steak, which has better flavor but some gristle.

Warm baked apples
I love apples because they are a good part of a healthy diet; you can eat them on the go and they are always available in the produce section.
Apple is the first word you learn in the alphbet. A gift of a apple to the teacher is the best thing you can give them. Apples can be bitter, sweet, sour, and very juice. No matter how you eat them raw with skin on or peeled and naked.oooo so good. Cute it in half and bake it with brown sugar. Apple every one loves you.
because they are just soooo darn GOOD!!!!!
I love apples because they're so versatile and taste delicious!!

Ok, so the title is slightly off. It's not so much a tattoo OF Sam and Max as it is FROM Sam and Max.
I thought I'd post it on here because so far only one person in real life has known where "mittens" is actually from! I know tattoos are not everyone's cup of tea, and that it's forever but I thought about it for well over a year before I actually went ahead with it last October, got it touched up recently so I felt like sharing it with folk who'd know what it is :P
What do you guys think? :)
Does anyone else have lucasarts or telltale inspired tattoos?
(it's awfully sunny today, looks darker in person)
