  1. Finally got access to BeIN TV, which has the rights to La Liga and....you guessed it....LIGUE 1. Love this league so I was a bit gutted when BeIN and ATT parted ways, thus leaving me in the dark. Tomorrow we'll be my first match back in the league.
  2. That is my favorite book of all time. Dostoyevsky's life during the writing of that is absolutely crazy, which you can tell when you know the events and read the book.
  3. Can't blame him really. As we all get older, it's seems we have less and less time.
  4. Yes, I have only really studied Tibetan, or Vajrayana mostly, and it is a bit mystic. I have always been drawn to the Dalai Lama's open mindedness in regards to science and how when an ancient Tibetan tradition is proven wrong via scientific evidence, he seems to always be accepting of the change and understanding that some tradition is just that, tradition. A lot of TNH's writing don't resonate with me, although like you said, he has to be commended for reaching the masses which isn't something a lot of Buddhist monk has been able to do in the past. I'm very interested in learning more about Theravada Buddhism and so I'll search for that book. I'm sure I can snag a copy somewhere. BTW, how is Panflute doing? I feel like I haven't spoken with him in ages.
  5. Always have been. It's why I moved to China. I have flirted with Buddhism for so long now, going to my local temple here in Atlanta which has a program with a couple local universities to teach course on it and classes on the Tibetan language. Back in 2010 H.H. DL came to Atlanta and I was able to go, had a pretty private session with him and about 10 other people, one of which was Richard Gere! I have never read the Dhammapada, but have read so many book on Buddhism you'd like I was a scholar. One of my favorites being the Tibetan Book of the Living and Dying, and also some of Thich Nhat Hanh wrote 'Old Path White Clouds' which really was an incredible read. I'll check out your book though, as it's something I can't seem to learn enough about.
  6. Also was at a book store last night and found this gem, which will be part of my reading in the near future.
  7. Ya damn nitpicker Finished 2 books this week -

  13. Agree. Such a staple for Napoli over the years. I think he's a bit full of crap saying it's because he can't play for another team in Europe outside of Napoli.
  14. What in the world is going on at Fenerbahce? 20 matches in and just 3 points clear of the relegation zone!?!? Robinho playing is absolutely criminal
  15. Friday, 08/02/2019 Salemitana vs Benevento Saturday, 09/02/2019 Cremonese vs Calcio Padova Perugia vs Palermo Cittadella vs Spezia Brescia vs Carpi Sunday, 10/02/2019 Livorno vs Cosenza Foggia vs Pescara Hellas Verona vs Crotone Monday, 11/02/2019 Venezia vs Lecce
  16. Updated Standings after week 22
  17. And there it is! A massive point for Foggia as they hold Palermo to a draw 0-0. Foggia could have scored right at the end, but in the end, Palermo were slightly better but unable to break the deadlock. And thus, that ends week 21 of Serie B!
  18. Foggia have held Palermo for a half. 0-0 at half-time.
  19. Palermo and Foggia have kicked off. I really like both teams, but given that Foggia are fighting relegation and they were my first match in Italy, I'll will be hoping for 3 points from them.
  20. Friday, 01/02 Lecce SUSP Ascoli Saturday, 02/02 Cosenza 2-0 Cittadella Carpi1-1 Hellas Verona Padova 0-0 Salemitana Spezia 2-2 Cremonese Sunday, 03/02 Crotone 1-1 Livorno Benevento 3-0 Venezia Pescara 1-5 Brescia Monday, 04/02 Palermo v Foggia
