The 2nd South Carolina Regiment was raised on June 6, 1775, at Charleston, South Carolina, for service with the Continental Army.

History
At organization the regiment consisted of 10 companies from eastern South Carolina and was part of the South Carolina State Troops. On November 4, 1775, the regiment was adopted by the Continental Army, and on February 27, 1776, it was assigned to the Southern Department. On November 23, 1776, the regiment was assigned to the 2nd South Carolina Brigade, Southern Department, and was relieved on 26 August 1778 and placed in the 1st South Carolina Brigade, and again moved to McIntosh's Brigade on June 15, 1779, and then moved to Huger's Brigade on September 14, 1779. On February 11, 1780, it was consolidated with the 6th South Carolina Regiment.

It was the main unit involved in the successful defense of Fort Moultrie at the Battle of Sullivan's Island. This battle saved Charleston from invasion for the next several years, and handed the British fleet their first loss in over a century. When the flag designed by the fort's commander, Colonel William Moultrie, was shot down, one of the regiment, William Jasper, grabbed it and held it aloft, rallying the troops until a stand could be provided.

This battle was vital to the entire war, and became symbolic of liberty in South Carolina. Its date is known as Carolina Day in the state, and the palmetto logs the regiment used for the fortress were added to the Moultrie Flag used to rally the troops, creating the Flag of South Carolina.

The regiment saw action at the Siege of Savannah, where elements from the British 60th Royal Americans captured their regimental Colour, and the Siege of Charleston. The regiment was captured by the British Army at Charleston on May 12, 1780, together with the rest of the Southern Department. The regiment was disbanded on November 15, 1783.

International Buddhist Studies College (IBSC) is a graduate college of Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya University in Wang Noi District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province, Thailand. IBSC was established in order that students from all over the world, who are interested in Buddhism, will be provided with an opportunity to pursue research in Buddhist studies.

IBSC offers international programs in Buddhist Studies, Mindfulness and Meditation, and Peace Studies. All international programs use English language as a medium, including documents, textbooks, and general books. Admission is open for ascetics and laypeople under the same conditions.   

IBSC is an inter-sectarian college, where the curriculum program includes subjects on three major Buddhist traditions: Theravada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana. Visiting professors are invited on a regular basis under the Global Academic Platform (GAP) project. Field trips are organized as a part of program for students to gain knowledge of Thai Buddhist culture. 

The International Buddhist Studies College (IBSC) is a member of the International Association of Buddhist Universities (IABU) which hosts the annual United Nations Day of Vesak Celebration. IABU is a global forum of Buddhist Universities including in part: Buddhist Academy of China, Vietnam Buddhist University, Dhamma Gate Buddhist College, Jagiellonian University, Tango Buddhist University and Naropa University.

Buddhist Studies Programs 

The college offers Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, and Doctoral programs in Buddhist Studies conducted in English language. The programs are focused on studying Pali language and Pali literature although main schools of Mahayana Buddhism are also studied within the curriculum. The programs combine rigorous academic study with meditation practice to offer an integrated education in Buddhist Studies, and are designed for students seeking an in-depth and critical understanding of Buddhist thought in the context of both traditional and academic scholarship.

Mindfulness and Meditation Programs 

Master of Arts and Doctoral programs in Mindfulness and Meditation started in 2018 to provide sufficient theoretical knowledge of Theravada Buddhism combined with a deep understanding of mindfulness and meditation techniques and their application to improve personal and social well-being.

Peace Studies Programs 

IBSC offers Master of Arts and Doctoral programs in Peace Studies conducted in English or Thai language.

The act of placing visitation stones is significant in Jewish bereavement practices. Small stones are placed by people who visit Jewish graves in an act of remembrance or respect for the deceased. The practice is a way of participating in the mitzvah of burial. It is customary to place the stone with the left hand.

History
Marking a grave with stones was customary in Biblical times before the adoption of gravestones. The oldest graves in the Old Cemetery in Safed are piles of rocks with a more prominent rock bearing an inscription.

It is not customary in Judaism to leave flowers at a grave after visiting. It is believed to be more appropriate to give money to charity that could otherwise be spent on flowers. In addition – cut flowers eventually die, but stones are enduring and do not die.

Formerly the tradition might have been to insert notes into crevices in the grave marker. This tradition may be related to the practice of placing notes in the Western Wall in Jerusalem. Letters may have been formerly written to the deceased and held down by a stone, the stone would have been left after the paper blew away.

The tradition has also been noted outside of Jewish mourning practices; Robert MacFarlane notes the presence of stones placed by mourners in the alcoves of the recesses of resting stones in ancient Ireland.

Interpretation
Various explanations have been given for the origin of the practice
Stone is frequently used in the torah as a metaphor for God in Judaism
To ensure that kohanim should not be affected by corpse impurity by inadvertently coming into close proximity with a grave
To ensure that the mitzvah is maintained by marking the grave with rocks
To show respect and let others know that the grave has been recently visited.
It happens that the Hebrew word for pebble is "tz'ror" but the word also means "bond" in Hebrew.

Lawrence English (born 1975/76) is an Australian composer, artist, and curator from Brisbane. His work is broadly concerned with the politics of perception, specifically he is interested in the nature of listening, and sounds' capability to occupy the body. He is the director of the imprint Room40, started in 2000. He and Jamie Stewart from Xiu Xiu have an ongoing collaboration named Hexa.

Sound works 
English's music is recognised as exploring "environmental and musical sources and is highly regarded for its intelligent invocation of perception, memory and space". On his 2014 album Wilderness of Mirrors he outlines his approach to composition "For me it's about a kind of struggle between almost nothing and almost everything. Sometimes one sound can be too much and other times 50 layers seems lacking in the depth you want to convey. I think at the heart of this question is dynamics, and I feel that's very much what this album is about. It's a slow reveal, I want it to be a seduction."

He cites childhood experiences birdwatching for reed warbler with his father as the starting point for his interest in sound in space. He has stated, "If you just looked in the reeds you'd see nothing. If you listened you got an idea of space and a sense of where it might be, then you understood it. That's probably my first experience with these ideas of space and sound, which are basically the fundamental building blocks of what I've been interested in since then." These experiences have led to a long engagement with field recordings, and more recently the development of theoretical approaches to the practice including his Relational Listening theory.

Abbé Huard Lake () is a small lake in the Côte-Nord region of the province of Quebec, Canada. It is drained by the Abbé Huard River, a tributary of the Romaine River.

Location

Abbé Huard Lake is in the unorganized territory of Lac-Jérôme in the Minganie Regional County Municipality.
The lake is a little more than  north of the municipality of Baie-Johan-Beetz on the north shore of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.
It is the source of the Abbé-Huard River, a tributary of the Romaine River.
The river is the second northeast branch of the Romaine River.
The lake is about  east of the Romaine 3 Reservoir.
A map of the ecological regions of Quebec shows the lake on the border between sub-regions 6j-S and 6n-T of the east spruce/moss subdomain.

Name
Abbé Huard Lake is named after the abbé Victor-Alphonse Huard (1853–1929), a naturalist and a professor at the Chicoutimi Seminary.
He visited the region between Pessamit and Natashquan in 1895, and described the trip in his Labrador et Anticosti (1897).
In his Dictionary of Rivers and Lakes of the Province of Quebec (1914), Eugène Rouillard points out the lake was probably named after the Abbé Huard before the river.
The Innu call the river Uauiekamau Hipu, or "Round Lake River".
The Naskapi call the river Umuauk Shipu or "Loon River", a literal translation of the French Rivière Huard.

Usage

A 2007 report stated that  Abbé-Huard Lake (Uauiekamas) had last been visited in fall about ten years ago by a family that also visits Abbé-Huard River and Nuhetihk Lake.
They stayed for three months, mostly trapping beaver and marten from camp 140.
A 2018 report said that Abbé Huard Lake is used by the indigenous people of the region every two or three years. 
For example, in August 2016 two Innu users spent five days on the lake fishing for brook trout. 
They traveled there by float plane provided by the Innu Aitun committee, stayed in a family camp built in the fall of 2015, and used a paddle boat for trips on the lake.
In September 2016 the two Innu spent a week on the lake hunting for moose, caribou, partridge and beaver, and fishing for brook trout.
The took four beavers but no deer.
As before they flew in and stayed at the family camp.
The informant did not notice any changes to the region around the lake during his two visits.

Tara Institute is a Tibetan Buddhist center located in the suburb of East Brighton in Melbourne which provides Buddhist teachings throughout the year. As of March 2020 the lama, Venerable Geshe Doga has been the resident teacher at the centre since 1984. The Center is a member of the FPMT.

The location is 3 Mavis Ave, Brighton East VIC 3187.

History 
Tara House, the forerunner of Tara Institute had its beginnings in Melbourne in 1974 when a small group of people who had attended one of the first Kopan Monastery meditation courses in Nepal began to meet at a house in North Fitzroy. Then in 1976 the group rented an old hotel in Carlton which was named Tara House by Lama Thubten Yeshe. In 1977 the center moved to a rented house in Kew and began to develop a retreat centre at Noojee in 1978. The first resident teacher, Geshe Dawö arrived in 1980 with his translator, Kelsang Tsering.

Following the advice and persuasion of Lama Thubten Yeshe in 1981 to "think big" Tara House bought an old mansion in East St Kilda in 1983. By 1987 this location had become too small and so the current building at Marillac House, which incorporates an historic mansion, was purchased. The centre was then renamed Tara Institute.

Activities and facilities 
There is a weekly program of meditation and Buddhist courses plus weekend courses, pujas, special healing courses, social events and activities for children.

The Center has full-time residents as well as providing dormitory accommodation for visitors. It is supported through residency, membership fees, donations and volunteer work. Amongst the facilities are a library and a bookshop.
