SquidBee is a wireless sensing mote which measures temperature, relative humidity and intensity of light at the same time and wirelessly sends data to a central monitoring Gateway. This tutorial is intended to provide a quick assembly guide for those who want to build a SquidBee through easy construction steps.
In this article we are going to show how to improve a SquidBee mote adding GPS position using the GPS module from Libelium. To the three usual sensors (temperature, humidity and light) now we add the physical position as a sensor. With this improvement into the motes our sensor network is able to provide the coordinates of each node in real time. www.sensor-networks.org/
Here we have the classic presence detector built in a SquidBee mote. We use a PIR sensor integrated with an on-board circuitry and a Fresnel lens, suitable for detecting presence from anything emitting infrared radiation up to a distance of 6m, and connect it to a wireless emitter in order to receive the corresponding alarm. The mote is also prepared to remain in a low-consumption state, making it suitable for battery-powered applications.

Sex and violence are a constant on most of the recent shows that are meant to be about politics, and it's not as if Boss is sullying the pristine waters from whence Scandal and Political Animals sprang. Scandal, which has one of the best dramatic casts on TV and gives them some of the silliest shit this side of an all-day Teletubbies marathon, sets the bar for political verisimilitude about as low as it can get. It's set in an alternate universe in which a socially liberal Republican has been elected president, and has an openly gay chief of staff who's married to a younger man who keeps pressuring him for a baby. If you can buy that, you'll buy anything, and given that "anything" is exactly what Scandal is selling in terms of narrative plausibility, it's good that the terms of the deal are established right up front.
We discuss TV's problem with political dramas, in light of Boss' recent cancellation.

It contains three books from The Ring and the Book and Browning's critical writing, Essay on Shelley. This edition also selects generously from the love letters between Browning and Elizabeth Barrett, as well as from Browning's more general correspondence--letters that cast a unique light upon the poems themselves and poetry in general. The book represents a unique combination of Browning's poetry and prose chosen from the whole range of his career to give the essence of his work and thinking.

"For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." ~ Nelson Mandela
Friends, I have been meaning to type a recollection of my experience at the Muslim Jewish Conference in Bosnia & Herzegovina earlier this year. However, time has not been kind and when I did have time, I seemed to have been short of enthusiasm to get typing. The past week has seen the passing of a great man, Mr Nelson Mandela, bringing much sadness to those close to him and at the same time, much jubilance to his countrymen celebrating a life of great stride and achievement. For many, this event has led to much introspection and contemplation on the current state of affairs in which we find ourselves.
I was fortunate enough to have been granted the opportunity to attend the Muslim Jewish Conference this year together with a diverse group of participants from around the world. I'm not going to relate a fairy tale or insist that a world free from divisions can exist, but I dare you to open your mind and join me on a journey that explores all possibilities.
The conference was free from political ambition as it arranged attendees into five different committees discussing topical issues that arise regularly within our religious and cultural communities (gender equality, historical narratives, conflict resolution, etc). Coming from a religious background, I had opted to join the committee on religion, aptly named "back to basics".
It was not so much about the content of the committee for me, but the idea of engaging in discussions about community with a group of individuals I wouldn't otherwise find myself paired with, that was the focus of my presence at the conference. Indeed, many fruitful issues were engaged with in the committees as well.
I had always known that Judaism and Islam shared a lot in common as Muslims believe that Islam is a continuation of the faith of Moses (through the line of Abraham and through to Jesus), but I had never given this very idea much thought until my interaction with the back to basics committee. It was there that I realised that it is not just the idea of monotheism, or the belief in the Bible, nor the lineage through Abraham that are points of mutual interest. Instead, it's about the finer aspects of our faith, like the idea that any act, no matter how small or undogmatic it may be, can be made into an act of worship by mere good intentions and willingness to serve G-d and His creation. Kindness to humanity and a real sense of consciousness are traits that are espoused by both of our faiths. We may, as other creatures, eat, sleep, create family and earn our daily bread, but with a sense of consciousness and noble purpose added to these routine activities, we add value, not just to our lives, but to humanity. Only a person who is aware will eat in moderation, knowing that many others go hungry on a daily basis. Only a person who is aware will smile at passers-by, no matter their class or background, because you know the value of a smile :-)
The conference began with many participants (myself included) dipping in their feet to test the water and tip-toeing around the "others". Move five days later and there was such a profound sense of family and community that spread not only amongst the conference attendees, but its organisers and also the staff at the hotel!
During our stay in BiH, we were addressed by many great speakers including the Bosnian president, the grand Mufti of Bosnia, Rabbi David Rosen and others, but most memorable was the story told by a survivor of the Srebrenica massacre. His story, coupled with the visit to the Srebrenica memorial centre thereafter was a chilling reminder of the consequences of leaving a conflict unchecked. It reminded me a lot about the history in my own country (South Africa), but of course, the shocking events of that massacre in Srebrenica was an unfortunate event of its own magnitude. Having walked out of the memorial centre however, I felt a sense of relief, realising that even that came to an end. Like Apartheid, perhaps we can end our conflicts throughout the world.
So what is the approach to solving a conflict? Of course there is no simple answer to that, but the more important lesson for me is the approach to moving beyond a conflict. Only with a sincere intention to move forward can a generation of people break the cycle of conflict. Here is where I refer to the quote of Nelson Mandela which I typed at the beginning of this post. There! was a man who decided the fate of his country. Had he, as leader of South Africa, chosen not to move beyond the conflict, but to pour out hatred on the minority in his country, I am certain that no amount of international pressure or resolutions would have ended the conflict in South Africa. If anything, that would have signalled the beginning of a much darker period with an unspeakable amount of bloodshed. Instead, Mr Mandela was aware and he took an enlightened decision on the path to reconciliation.
In the words of President Obama, "It took a man like Madiba to free not just the prisoner, but the jailor as well; to show that you must trust others so that they may trust you; to teach that reconciliation is not a matter of ignoring a cruel past, but a means of confronting it with inclusion, generosity and truth. He changed laws, but also hearts."
This is so true and this, I believe, is a key to moving beyond conflict. No people, nor any nation should be excluded from our compassion and tolerance. To those who doubted my journey to the conference and those who still distrust the idea behind it, I invite you to an alternate approach. As exemplified by non other than Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) himself when he prayed for the people of Ta'if and refused to order their punishment even after they pelted him to the point that his blood dripped to the ground, as Prophet Muhammed showed us reconciliation when he did not act against the man who mercilessly assassinated his daughter Sumayya, but accepted him into the faith and amongst the believers, I invite you to contemplate the idea of moving beyond conflict through reconciliation by forgiveness, mercy and compassion. I extend this invitation to all my friends, regardless of background, in fact I extend this invitation to all who read this post.
I intend to write more about my experience at the Muslim Jewish Conference soon.
Special thanks goes to all those who made the conference possible, especially its founder, Mr Ilja Sichrovsky.

Nasheed sworn in as Maldives new President .
Article Tools
Mohamed Nasheed, a prominent leader of the democratic reform in the Maldives and former political prisoner jailed several times for his anti-government activities has been sworn in as the new President of Maldives in a special session of the People's Majlis held this morning held at Dharubaaruge.
Nasheed, 41 educated in UK, won the run-off in the first multi- party and multi-candidate presidential elections held on 28 October after the country has adopted a new constitution and embraced far reaching democratic reform. Nasheed's election brought an end to the 30 year rule of former President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom who contested for a seventh term. Nasheed's win was hailed by a larger majority of the people as a victory for democracy and change.
After taking the oath of office President Nasheed in his address to the Majlis told he would uphold the constitution and faithfully discharge his duties as the new President of Maldives. He said serving and improving the quality of life of his people will be his foremost priority and he renewed the commitment of honoring the promises he made during the election campaign.
"We will establish a new government to serve the people to fulfill the pledges we made, the people deserves more than what they are getting today, we have been mentioning this repeatedly, and I am once again repeating it" President Nasheed expressed.
Nasheed reiterated his pledges , expressing that cost of living, housing , transport, health care and other basic necessities must be at affordable and within reach of the citizens. He also said the youth of today does not have to be victims of drug abuse.
"We will not be ruling just for the sake of ruling, the objective of this government will be realize the pledges we made, we made several pledges, the people gave their support and their majority to us so that we can form a government to fulfill these pledges" President Mohamed Nasheed said.
President Nasheed expressed his gratitude to Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse, Indian Vice President Hamid Ansari and other distinguished foreign dignitaries who have so graciously attended his inauguration. He also profoundly thanked world leaders and other dignitaries who have very kindly felicitated him on his election and assumption of the office of the President.
He further urged the Majlis to endorse and approve his cabinet so that he continues with the work expected by the people.
President Nasheed expressed his happiness about the calm smooth and democratic manner in which the transition of power has taken place, again as a fine example of democracy. He said the world has only few examples where a 30 year old regime was brought to end so peacefully and so smoothly. He thanked the Maldivian people for their wisdom.
After President Nasheed's inauguration Vice President Elect Dr. Mohamed Waheed Hassan Manik was also sworn in.
Speaker of the People's Majlis Mohamed Shihab, addressing the Majlis expressed that the sentiments expressed by President Nasheed was the very reason why the Maldivian people elected him as their new leader. He wished Nasheed every success and prayed to God Almighty to grant President Nasheed perseverance, strength and wisdom to fulfill his obligations.
Saying that today marked a new chapter in Maldives history; Speaker Mohamed Shihab expressed hope that President Nasheed will be a compassionate and humble leader who will give priority to the needs and aspirations of the people.
"I sincerely hope that President Nasheed will be such a leader and that new government will be a government formed for the people" Shihab said.
Shihab further said Maldivian people know President Nasheed not only as a political leader but also as a hero who made many sacrifices for the rights and freedom of the people.
"I am confident that the Nasheed's presidency will provide the Maldives and the Maldivian people happiness, prosperity and peace the country deserves. I am also confident that Nasheed will be a leader who make good on his promises" Speaker of People's Majlis Mohamed Shihab said.
The special Majlis session was also attended by former ministers and members of the People's Majlis. Members of the Majlis greeted the President just before the end of the ceremony. The ceremony was attended a packed crowd of senor government officials and members of the civil society.

as I tried to explain yesterday the problem with my printer not being able to print was as a result of the location of its printing court having been redefined when I was using an advanced system care professional. However, I was able to reallocate the printer for, as I said yesterday.
Windows Live Writer:
I discovered that the problem I was having with Windows live writer was as a result of cleaning the registry. But more specifically, cleaning certain aspects of the registry that were and remain important to Windows live writer. So after readjusting the registry cleaner that I'm using, I then was able to reinstall Windows live writer. I have gone back to Windows live writer. Because Firefox as it is in fact going through. It's silent updates, is actually causing a bit of incompatibility, periodically, with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. So consequently, I have gone back to using as I said, Windows live writer as a way of interfacing with my Journal on blogger.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
Dragon NaturallySpeaking:
So, with regard to Dragon NaturallySpeaking. And Windows live writer. I am at this point. Like I said using the dictation box. But I am simulating keystrokes. Furthermore, as I've already explained, if your voice is in fact changeable. Meaning that your voice is not consistently stays almost exactly the same from one month to the next based on environmental or other possible conditions that might change voice. The best way of updating and making Dragon NaturallySpeaking more accurate is to in fact retrain your profile. Because the automatic tuning mechanism does not. And as effectively. It voice is in fact changeable.
it's easy for almost all of us as human beings to become so preoccupied with our lives that we basically forget that there are millions if not billions of different processes that are taking place. Not only throughout our entire planet. But throughout every aspect of the universe, including the aspect of the universe that surrounds that pervades our own planet. And just as easily, it becomes easy for people to exclude others from what they are talking about by saying that what they are talking about is beyond what most humans can understand.
I don't want to take that particular line. So what I will say is that my perceptions, metaphysically speaking, our perceptions that either most of humanity does not look at her most of humanity. Like all of us. Meaning every one of us generally becomes so overwhelmed and preoccupied with getting through the day and living our lives. That we basically just don't look at the tremendous amount of processes, scientifically speaking, that are taking place. Not only throughout our entire planet. But throughout the entire universe. And more specifically what is going on in this section of space.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
So, consequently, the perceptions. I have, metaphysically speaking, are such that. Because most of humanity, meaning most of us, and generally don't think in terms of extremely abstract and metaphysical processes taking place throughout the universe, including our planet. That for most humans. Meaning most of my fellow humans. Trying to understand what I may in fact be talking about, specifically here, could in fact be either confusing or difficult for people to understand. That does not mean it is beyond human understanding. It just simply means that the metaphysically oriented perceptions I'm having at this time our perceptions the most people are not used to engaging in or experiencing. And as a result, most humans, meaning my fellow humans, will probably have a certain way of difficulty understanding what I'm talking about.
In any event, metaphysically speaking, there is a way for any human being to be able to communicate with various forms of energy. Not only here on Earth. But anywhere in the universe. Furthermore, this communication is definitely nonlinguistic. Although it is to assert been reading conceptual. And there are aspects of human spirituality that actually do come close to comprehending and possibly simulating some of these metaphysical processes.
Given the foregoing, what is basically happening, metaphysically speaking, is that additions. With regard to humanity are in fact changing in such a way, whereby as a result, humanity is, for the most part, dedicating itself to a more constructive and violent form of existence. And that in reality there are a number of anthropological explanations, pursuant to this kind of cultural change or sociological change. Whereby as a result, violence and dissension and conflict misunderstanding. All these aspects of negative conflict that humanity is globally engaging in, politically and economically and religiously and culturally and socially and in almost every other way. The it's aspects of human conflict at this point are basically becoming so normalized that humanity is redefining the direction in which humanity will in fact progress.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
And so, consequently, again, metaphysically speaking, energies that not only us around planet and our in this section. But also, the energy that pervades the entire planet, are moving in the direction where, for those of us who are engaged in attempting to help humanity be more positive, are going to be shifting gears so to speak. Because there are other ways for those of us who are metaphysically oriented to engage with and to engage in the energy not only of this world, but the energies that are surrounding this world. And in this section of the universe.
As long as humanity continues to remain as backward and primitive as humanity currently is. Specifically with regard to associating firearms and money with spirituality. Which of course have no place whatsoever with any form of spirituality. But as long as humans are going to continue to associate firearms and killing and violence and hatred and racism and ugliness and profanity and a desire to murder each other along with filthy ugly money. As long as humanity wants to behave this way with regard to their own spirituality, there is nothing, not one single thing, that can be done physically, meaning using debate or language or reasoning. That nothing can be done along those lines, that will in any way, cause humanity to become more enlightened or less primitive or less backward. Because humanity is determined that the only way they want to define spirituality here on Earth is by using a gun and killing anyone that disagrees with them or hating anyone that disagrees with them. And practicing bigotry and prejudice and all sorts of ugly behavior. In addition to associating filthy ugly physical money with spirituality. As long as humanity wants to behave in this extremely primitive and backward way. There is nothing, physically that any human being can do in any way, meaning nonviolent such as debate or reasoning. That will in any way cause humanity to become more enlightened and less violent and less backward and basically stupid and primitive. Because humanity is taking pride in how stupid they are and how primitive they are and how ugly they can be and how backward they can be. Because that's exactly how humanity is defining spirituality here on Earth.
So consequently, metaphysically speaking, the only way to have any effect whatsoever on humanity and the ugliness that humanity is clinging to because humanity loves to be ugly and violent and basically stupid and murderous. Because that's what humanity celebrates. Humanity celebrates murder. They celebrate killing they love killing they love murdering they love using money with religion. They love using guns with spirituality and religion. So consequently, since humanity wants to continue using money and guns with religion even though every single religion on earth tells humanity not to. As long as that condition exists. There is nothing physically that anyone is going to be able to say or to debate or even present to humanity that is going to cause humanity to be less stupid less backward less primitive and less ugly and less disgusting as a life form.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
Which means that the renewal way to achieve any kind of positive affect on humanity has to be metaphysical or through the various sciences the quantum mechanics and Newtonian metaphysics . Because trying to convince humanity to stop acting like a bunch of spoiled brats or to trying to debate with humanity over the virtues of celebrating spirituality instead of using spirituality as a means to commit mass murder or generate hatred just cannot be done using any kind of physical reasoning or anything like that. It's not going to work.
And so, as I said, metaphysically speaking, individuals in the world who are metaphysically oriented are beginning to use a different method to be able to encourage humanity to be less stupid and less backward and less primitive so that humanity will eventually learn that using guns to demonstrate their religion or using guns with their religion or using money with their religion is exactly the wrong thing to do not only because every single religion tells them that it is the wrong thing to do. But because those aspects of physical life or life in any form, meaning violence and money, have no place whatsoever with regard to spirituality. But because humanity is so stupid and so backward and so primitive and so hateful and ugly that humanity just doesn't have the ability to have anything to do with spirituality without using a gun or spending money and then turning around and demonstrating as much hatred as possible since this is the only way humanity seems to be able to exist. The only way for anyone who has any kind of metaphysical understanding is to use alternative methods, metaphysically speaking, to encourage humanity not to be so stupid not to be so selfish not to be so hateful. Not to be so violent as to use guns when they pray to God. Just like they should not use money when they pray to God. But because humanity is so stupid. That's why the only way to help humanity to see that they should not be this stupid, is to do so scientifically or metaphysically whereby humanity will feel the effects of their own stupidity and their own violence.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
And whether humanity likes it or not, the violence in the ugliness and the stupid ugly behavior that humanity has promoted and actually perfected and normalized in the human condition is already beginning to come back on humanity in a number of different scientific and metaphysical ways all over the world. And again, that means that anyone who has any degree of metaphysical orientation or perception. Their sensitivity knows and understands that the only way to convince humanity to stop being so ugly and hateful and violent where the only way they can pray to God is holding a gun and threatening to kill anyone who doesn't agree with them what you hate everyone and to be a selfish and ugly as possible, because that's what humanity is become. So the only way to convince humanity not to do that is using scientific and metaphysical procedures. Whereby, as a result, humanity will begin to feel the effects of their own ugliness and their own violence and their own hateful attitude and their own stupidity and backward ugly behavior. Where humanity is actually saying that the only way they can pray to God is holding a gun and a want of money area. Because those are the exactly the wrong things for humanity to ever use or associate with spirituality. But because humanity is so basically stupid asinine and ugly and violent horrible and mean and hateful and selfish. The only thing that will work with humanity is to allow all of the metaphysical effects of their ugliness and their violence to begin to come back on humanity. And some of that has already begun to take place.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
So whether humanity likes it or not. Humanity will be told by this section of space, energetically, to put up and shut up and not be so ugly and hateful and violent and mean and selfish and rock and horrible that the only way they can pray to God is holding a gun and a wad of money. Because that's all humanity does anymore. Humanity wants to hold their guns and kill everyone they can because humanity hates everything they hate themselves. They hate each other. They hate the world and the only way they can pray to God is holding a loaded gun and a wad of money. Because they hate God. So badly.
No problem. Like I said. Humanity will learn to put up and shut up. Whether humanity likes it or not. Because metaphysical and scientific changes taking place in the world and inhumanity as a result of their ugliness and their vile stupid backward and primitive behavior, where the only way they can pray to God is holding a loaded gun and a wad of money. That kind of ugly disgusting backward primitive despicable behavior is generating all sorts of negative energy throughout this planet and all throughout this section of the universe. And that negative energy is affecting this planet. Because humanity doesn't want to put up and shop and try to be more positive or being more enlightened regarding spirituality. Because humanity love using a gun with their spirituality. They love holding a gun and murdering each other because they are so hateful and so primitive and backward that they can even understand the nature of what they worship that they call by so many different names as God.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
And so for that reason, like I said, metaphysically speaking, changes are taking place. And these changes are going to take place. Whether humanity likes it or not. Humanity wanted to go ahead and say they love their guns and they love being hateful they love being ugly. They love being selfish and mean and despicable and backward and primitive. And basically stupid because that's what humanity celebrates. No problem. The amount of women. Humanity is murdering every year is despicable, the amount of children humanity is disregarding and murdering every year is beyond comprehension. The amount of how ugly humanity is become the degree of how ugly humanity has become and how primitive and hateful and despicable as a life form is also beyond comprehension. Because humanity now is probably one of the most despicable and one of the ugliest forms of life that has ever walked on the surface of the earth. All because humanity wants to be ugly humanity wants to be primitive and stupid and humanity wants to make sure that every time they open their book of religion that they are holding a loaded gun in one hand and a wad of money and the other hand, so that they can tell what ever they are worshiping to go to hell. Because they will never give up their loaded gun. They will never give up their money. They will never give up their hatred. They will never give up their ugliness they will never give up their backward primitive despicable horrible behavior. Because humanity loves being ugly and horrible and mean and despicable holding a gun and murdering everyone they don't like. Because that's exactly what humanity is done. That is what they are doing now. And the only way humanity will ever stop being so despicable and ugly is that the energies throughout this world and around this world reacted the ugliness in the violent horrible despicable behavior that humanity has been promoting and supporting almost from the very first moment humanity began to form cultures.
As I said, some of these changes are already taking place. And the changes are going to get more dramatic. Meaning they are going to have more of a negative impact on humanity and on the earth. And this will happen as a result of how ugly and how horrible, despicable and violent and selfish and mean and hateful and stupid and backward and primitive humanity has become. Because humanity no longer understands the real meaning of spirituality. Just like humanity no longer understands the real meaning of metaphysical interpretation or metaphysical perception. Because humanity doesn't care about that. Because humanity only cares about their guns and their money and their selfish ugly behavior. Because that's exactly what humanity demonstrates every day how ugly they can be how hateful they can be out violent they can be how many people they can murder how many times they can walk into any kind of a religious place without loaded gun. So that they will make sure everyone knows that they will kill anyone who dares to say they should worship God any other way than they want to delve murder everyone else kill everyone because that's what humanity worships killing people murdering people killing children and murdering women burning babies alive destroying countries. Because that's what humanity does every day. And that's what humanity has done for the last several thousand years and humanity will never stop being so ugly and despicable and actually one of the worst life forms ever do exist in the world until humanity finally is confronted with the ugliness of their own actions. And that, as I said, metaphysically speaking, is exactly what is taking place.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
So go ahead. Continue being as ugly as you want. Continue being as violent and horrible and mean and hateful and selfish and greedy and violent with a desperation to kill each other. Keep doing it and see what happens. Because it won't be me. You have to fear. It'll be the energy that you are generating and supporting and promoting with all of your ugliness in your file horrible violent behavior. Because you don't even understand the nature of spirituality because if you did understand the nature of spirituality. You would never owned a firearm if you understood the nature of spirituality you would never associate don't the ugly dirty money with spirituality but because humanity is so greedy and hateful. You have painted yourselves into a corner. Because the amount of energy you have generated that is negative and horrible is 10 times when you have displayed in physical life in this world.
And whether you like it or not that energy does not behave the way you tell it to. Because that energy does not update your rules. Because you are not the creator of this world. You are not the creator of yourselves. You are not the creator of life. You are not the creator of anything. You are one life form out of billions. And yet you are so selfish and sanctimonious but you really think you can create anything and destroy anything you want. And that's exactly which you do every day if you destroy everything you kill as many people as you want you murder women you kill children you burned babies you destroy countries you destroyed cultured because of your hatred. And your ugly filed guns and your selfish ugly money and how primitive and ugly you have become and then you wonder why the energy that you have created is coming back on you environmentally and in so many other ways, which shows exactly how stupid and primitive. You really are.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
So that's fine. As I said, those of us who are metaphysically sensitive and oriented would regard to our perceptions and our understanding of spirituality will probably now be doing other things than engaging with humanity and all of their ugliness and selfishness and all of their hatred and filed despicable behavior. Humanity wants to act like a bunch of pigs don't expect everyone in humanity to join in. Because there are some people who actually want to progress. There are actually some individuals who want to become more enlightened not violent and ugly holding a gun and putting it down next to their religious book. So that they can swear in God and tell God they will kill everyone in this world that disagrees with them. But that's exactly what most of humanity is doing one country to the next. Everyone is carrying a gun holding lots of money and telling each other how they are going to kill each other and murder each other because they won't think alike.
No problem. As I've always said, it's your future. Not mine.
And as I have said, those of us who are metaphysically sensitive and oriented with regard to our perceptions will now be using other methods, scientifically and metaphysically, to convince humanity to either grow up and put up and shut up and start acting like sentient beings or humanity will see so much negative energy coming back to this world in so many different ways, including environmentally and culturally. That humanity will for the most part not survive. And it will be humanity's fall. It will be your own fault area you had more than enough opportunity and time to grow up and put up and shut up and turn away from your ugly filed violent despicable horrible primitive backward behavior. But instead most of you have decided that you love being primitive you love being ugly you love being hateful and violent selfish and greedy and mean-spirited and racist and bigoted you love all these negative things. Because that's what you do every day and we know that's true because in the United States alone every 30 seconds another woman is being beaten raped or murdered. And with 78% of the United States being pro-life Christian. That means 78% of all of the women murdered in the United States are murdered by pro-life Christians many of whom are tea party members and Republicans. Because they hate women they love killing women they left murdering women they love raping and beating women to adapt. Because that's how they define spirituality.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
And said humanity wants to behave that ugly and that's stupid that humanity can put up and shut up and deal with the response of the energies they have generated and promoted and sustained and supported. Because every time you commit one of those really ugly acts of violence and hatred you create a ton of negative energy and now because so much of humanity is engaged in this kind of file ugliness the amount of negative energy in the world is building is coming out environmentally and culturally and anthropologically and sociologically and in every other way. And as a result of the collective file ugliness that humanity is in gauging and supporting as I said, the energetic response, metaphysically speaking, is that most of humanity will not survive. And you have yourselves to blame. You all think you know so much. When all you do is grab your gun in your wad of money and tell everyone you will kill anyone that you don't like. Because that's your attitude. And since that's your gratitude. You can put up and shut up and deal with the results of having that kind of attitude. Because you're not going to get choice. You're not going to be able to turn your back on what's happening. Not to be able to lie about what is happening. You're not be able to get out from under what is happening. Because you did it to yourselves. You have done it to yourselves. You have submerged your self and yourselves and horrible ugly filed violence and greed and selfishness and you have done so to such an extent, where you are and in their estimate to life itself. You are not a sentient being you are not good human beings. You are not good life forms you are vile ugly and violent horrible selfish life forms that don't even understand the meaning of the entire spectrum of light, let alone how to relate to it.
So, that's pretty much how it is. And in reality, as I've always said. No problem. Because it's your soul and your energy that is in the cross wires. Not mine. So of you don't mind making humanity and yourselves is ugly and is biology, possibly can be. And as primitive in his stupid in his unenlightened that is horrible and mean and hateful. If you can be. No problem. Because it'll be your soul and your energy and your energies that will have and suffer the reaction from your own file ugliness. And trust me. No wonder life form in the universe. In any way would ever admire anything you have done because everything you ever did positively you have destroyed with all of your wars with all of your God is with all of your money with all of your hate with all of your despicable horrible mean-spirited and violent behavior. Any good. You do is destroyed within seconds because of all of your guns and all of your vile ugly behavior. No problem.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
Because those of us who are metaphysical know of other ways, metaphysically. And, scientifically, using energy, to convince you that if you don't stop most of you won't survive. But you don't care. I mean humanity doesn't give a damn. They don't care. They don't survive as far as they are concerned they'll go out killing as many people in hating as many people in Haiti life and hating everything as possible. Because that's what humanity love to do. Humanity love to hate everything kill everything I anything they want use money and guns to get anything they want. Because that's how humanity thinks which is why no life form anywhere near this planet wants to have anything to do with humanity. Like I said humanity is not a very attractive life form. Humanity is turned out to be nothing more than a pile of maggots climbing around on a pile of garbage.
So get used to it. Humanity. You wanted to be hateful and selfish and mean and violent and ugly and stupid and primitive. You wanted to be violent to where you can take a gun and go to whatever religious place you want an open that religious looking cock that gun so that you have a loaded and ready to kill anyone because that's how you celebrate spirituality with a loaded gun and a fistful of money. Because that's how you understand spirituality. Unless you've got a loaded weapon in your hand and money in the other hand, you can't even pray to year-round God. Because you have to have a loaded firearm and money to even to talk to God. And that's where you have become stupid and violent and ugly and you don't even see what you are doing to yourselves. So those of us who are in fact, metaphysically oriented, will in fact engage with the energies not only here in this world but that around this world. And those energies will finally tell you humans to put up and shut up and stop acting like a bunch of spoiled asinine rants and stop acting like a bunch of cockroaches and start acting like sentient beings. But don't believe that that will happen soon. Because it won't. It's going to take probably 20 generations are more before you people that call yourselves. Humanity will ever wise up and stop murdering each other. Because it's going to take your own children turning on you and killing you. When that happens you're going to realize that you've taught your children the wrong values. And if you have been using the wrong values to worship God and to identify spirituality and when the world start having more problems and millions of you die that you're finally going to get the message that you can screw up the Earth and ruin things in the world and expect the world. Not to have a reaction.
(For support and source documentation, and further reading, please see my "See Also:" section below.)
Don't believe me. Please don't. Do the research yourself. Go ahead, stretch your mind and research everything prove me wrong. Because every time you try and prove me wrong with what I'm saying. In this Journal entry and other entries like this. Every time you try, you end up looking more and more stupid, because everything I'm talking about has been shown to be true and has been there are five by all of you. Which means if you don't like what I am showing you as far as facts then you don't like what you have been accumulating aspects and you are in denial of what you have done to yourselves and to each other. And if you want to live your life being in denial of everything. No problem. Try being in denial of what's going to happen environmentally and anthropologically because you won't be able to be in denial about that no matter how many lies you tell yourselves or each other. Things are going to change. And as they do. As I said before, most of you won't survive and yet most of you don't even give a damn. Because you never have all through history who have murdered every single type of person in every single culture who ever tried to warn you about what you were doing. You have never once listened to anybody who actually tried to warn you about what you were doing. You murdered every single one of them. You'd better start asking yourselves why.
It's your future…. Not mine….

Child mortality Statistics:
Globally, 80 percent of all child deaths are due to only a handful of causes: neonatal causes, pneumonia, diarrhea, and malaria. 3. Pneumonia or sepsis, pre-term delivery, and asphyxia at birth are the leading causes of neonatal deaths. Malnutrition is responsible for over a third of child deaths.
From: http://www.globalhealth.org/child_health/child_mortality/
And, according to recent United States statistics, there are approximately 43,000 suicides that take place, in the United States every single year. That would be one suicide taking place, by children as young as 12, or possibly younger, up to our oldest citizens. Approximately every 15 minutes.
Not one single penny that the pro-life movement spends on their so-called pro-life movement goes toward saving any of these "living" children's lives. Not one single cent. Which means that not one single cent of the so-called pro-life movement is being used to save any of the amazing children and absolutely fantastic women, and men, who are being killed, or suffering horribly, every single minute. so naturally, it becomes impossible to conclude that the pro-life movement is pro-life at all, if they will not even save the lives of living children and men and women. But will always only be concerned with, and define life as the "fetus" only. And THAT'S NOT how their own God Jesus Christ defines life, in their own Bible.
Which means that the pro-life movement is not pro-life at all. Because their money is "not" going to save any living life on this planet. Their money is only going toward forcing women to bear children against their will. And that's not how their own God, Jesus Christ defines pro-life.

And again, their own God, Jesus Christ says in their own Bible, not to judge anyone, and not to hurt anything that God makes. That's anything. So, these statistics are really meant to illustrate about being responsible for one's own choices and actions. That would be, in their own Bible, free-will choices and free-will actions.
My Statement On Religion
For the record, I do not now, nor have I ever hated any human being on earth. I do not hate, regarding my spirituality, and spiritual beliefs, anything that God did make. Meaning that I do not hate the "humanity" that exists within any human being. However, God did not make the personal choices that humans make, regarding how they behave, and/or present themselves, to the world. So if a human being chooses, of their own free will to demonstrate their behavior with racism, bigotry, prejudice, and hatred for other humans, on the basis of their own free will choice as to how they define their spirituality within themselves, that is their own choice. So I do not hate any human being for being that which God did make. I hate only the choices and the manner in which humans have decided to demonstrate their behavior to one another. I do not hate religion. However, I will never give my support to "any" religion, that has ever caused harm to, or killed, a single human being, in any way, as a result of the religion demonstrating, or manifesting it's presence in the world. If any religion has ever harmed or killed a single human being, I respect the right of all humans to believe what they want in life. I, personally, will under no circumstances give my support for any religion, or theological belief, that has ever harmed or killed even a single human being. This is what I have dedicated my life to as a spiritualist and a pacifist here on earth. So any attempt by anyone to portray me as hating anyone is a lie. Because that is not so. The foregoing clearly shows that I have no hatred for humankind or for any religion.
My Pro-Life Statement
For the record, I am pro-life . I do not support violence against, or the killing of any human being under any circumstances! And the only way that I ever deviate from that stand is that I do not believe that God has ever given any human the right to dictate to any woman how she is to arbitrate her life with the Almighty, and/or God . Therefore, I believe that all women deserve the right to choose for themselves the fate of their own bodies, pursuant to their relationship with the Almighty, and/or God . My position regarding this statement is more fully explained in my article entitled: Second Gear.

stasis boxes
A force field used either to restrain objects, or to prevent their deterioration, as is sometimes done with medically critical patients. On stardate 7403.6 (2270), the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise detects a stasis field in operation on the surface of the aboriginal planet Delta Theta III, discovering only after a nearly disastrous encounter with that planet's primitive reptilian inhabitants that the field is actually a noncorporeal intelligence charged with taking care of the planet's native tribes. Although the entity is confused and angered by the unexpected presence of Starfleet personnel among her "children," she allows the Enterprise to retrieve its landing and rescue parties, and to depart in peace.

Log file analysis with the Nagios check_logfiles plugin
The Nagios check_logfiles plugin helps you monitor your logfiles – even if the logs rotate and change names.
The Nagios monitoring tool is a general framework for watching things. Nagios lets you keep an eye on computers, processes, devices, and network services. Another thing Nagios can watch is logfiles. The Nagios plugin collection comes with a number of options for monitoring logs. The check_log and check_log2 plugins, for example, are popular with many admins; however, these plugins sometimes have problems in situations in which an application or script is rotating the logs. The tools tend to slip up occasionally and miss a couple of lines, which is something you can't allow if you need 100% coverage. To close the gaps, the check_logfiles plugin was developed to check every single entry – even if a log moves, changes its name, or disappears into a compressed archive during the monitoring period.

Innovation and idea generation are the top outcomes from gender diversity
Deloitte's International Women's Day survey
Singapore, 8 March 2013 – According to Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited's (DTTL) fifth annual International Women's Day (IWD) webcast survey, innovation and idea generation are the most significant advantages to organisations that embrace inclusive leadership to improve gender diversity (49 percent of respondents), followed by increased employee engagement (28 percent), and greater retention and advancement of women (15 percent).
The survey of 720 business leaders from 42 countries across Asia, Europe, and the Americas explored the concept of inclusive leadership – behaviors, policies and practices designed to successfully manage diversity and allow for greater inclusion – and its impact on improved gender equality and organisational performance.
Fifty-one percent of those surveyed said inclusive leadership is a key area of focus for their organisation. However, 41 percent felt the main barrier to inclusive leadership was a failure by organisations to recognise the return on investment from having a diverse workforce.
Vanessa Borchers, Global Diversity Leader, DTTL, comments: "The survey respondents indicated that companies that recognise the importance of gender diversity will reap the rewards. Traditional approaches to diversity are getting women in the door and fostering retention and development, but we are still not seeing women advance to leadership positions quickly enough."
"Inclusion is a critical element required to better empower and advance women to top-level positions in the private and public sectors. It is also important to involve men in the conversation, and continually challenge long-held assumptions and traditional ways of working in order to accelerate progress. Businesses simply will not be able to remain competitive and innovative if they do not employ a diverse workforce," said Borchers.
In addition to the survey, webcast panelist Penny Low, Singapore Member of Parliament spoke on the need for organisations to make collective decisions in their corporate policies for the inclusion of women. Low, who is also the President and Founder of Social Innovation Park Ltd, felt that bold moves such as legislating flexi-work arrangements are required to augment the current social economic structure in Singapore: "The Government should provide support and incentives to women and to employers who help create windows of opportunities for women, such as pro family guidelines and methods that corporates can adopt."
Participants also heard from webcast panelist Gianmarco Monsellato, CEO of Taj, a law firm in France and a member of the Deloitte network and finalist for the United Nations Women's Empowerment Principles (WEP) Leadership Awards in the Business Case for Action Award 2013 category. Monsellato, who spoke about the importance of providing equal career opportunities for women, is being recognised for his drive to improve gender diversity and transform the Taj culture.
"There are no diversity programs at Taj. We just do diversity. There is no difference between the work men and women do here; everyone is treated like a professional; this is just how we do business," said Monsellato.
In eight years, Taj experienced significant success in the French legal sector both in terms of reputation and organic growth—rising from a second-tier firm to a market leader and growing 70 percent in a tough economy. Today, 52 percent of the women at Taj are in management positions; 50 percent women are equity partners; and 50 percent of women are in executive roles.
