I think it is called “LOVE” where they all touch, in this diagram.
Funny how no one mentions love in all the equations.

of the trio accused of sinking HBOS: Sir James Crosby, Lord Stevenson and Andy Hornby. They are up on charges of vanity, arrogance, recklessness – and enough of it to destroy a bank.
Today’s report from the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards is not so much a
post-mortem examination as an 88-page j’accuse, one which concludes that all three should be
barred from the industry. Even worse, the report finds the bankers quite unrepentant.
“The best board I ever sat on,” it was told by one former director.
“The governance was rather good,” agrees Lord Stevenson, the bank’s former chairman.
Not so long ago, politicians were infatuated with bankers. Indeed, there is suspiciously little
in the report about how Lord Stevenson and Sir James came by their fancy titles. The answer,
of which the Labour members of the commission are all too aware, is that Gordon Brown pretty
much governed in coalition with the banks. His appetite for tax revenue was every bit as great as

Elsevier, a Dutch company behind many renowned peer-reviewed scientific journals, including the Lancet and Global Environmental Change, is also one of the top publishers of books aimed at expanding fossil fuel production.
For more than a decade, the company has supported the energy industry’s efforts to optimize oil and gas extraction. It commissions authors, editors and journal advisory board members who are employees at top oil firms. Elsevier also markets some of its research portals and data services directly to the oil and gas industry to help “increase the odds of exploration success”.

The problems we face are rooted in the way we LIVE and the way we THINK, so these are what must change. A new, higher level of thinking will usher in a new way of living, in which social justice and environmental sustainability are enshrined and where there is no concept of exploiting other people or damaging our home, Planet Earth.
WE need every ounce of our ingenuity, determination &resolve right now to build this future.

e world—transformed. The poetry of their language is not myth, but an effort to do justice to their experience. When you taste the deep clear intelligence at the heart of being, nothing is left untouched.
If you wish to claim your heritage as the Buddha, the Awakened One, your best option is to find a masterful teacher such as Jun Po Roshi. With his koan dialogue process, you will learn to clear away the obscurations of a fixated mind and discover a clear, ordinary mind brimming with insight and compassion. You will begin to experience your own identity as vast, unconstrained, fearless, timeless—and eternally wakeful.
The first part of this dialogue touches on the role of language in meditative insight and the importance of articulating a worldview that reflects your insight. You'll also find discussions on compassion and transmission, as well as an amusing and informative contrast of the Soto and Rinzai schools of Zen.
