SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - San Jose State's David Fales, the FBS' most accurate passer last season threw for 225 yards and two touchdown passes Thursday night as both he and the Spartans picked up where they left off defeating Sacramento State 24-0 for their eighth-straight win.
Jason Simpson led the Spartan ground game with 135 yards including a 55-yard touchdown run in the third quarter.
Fales connected with Noel Grigley for a touchdown with 26 seconds left in the first half, bringing the score at halftime to 17-0. Chandler Jones had 8 receptions for 130 yards.
Ezekiel Graham led Sacramento state with just 49 yards rushing. Garrett Safron completed 23 of 40 passes for 192 yards, but was intercepted twice. Mistakes plagued the Hornets, as the team was also penalized 8 times, and a late fourth-quarter drive sputtered after a Safron sack and a delay of game penalty.

TrueCrypt audit: Probe's nearly all the way in ... no backdoor hit yet
The first phase of crowd-funded audit of TrueCrypt has turned up several vulnerabilities, but nothing particularly amiss and certainly nothing that looks like a backdoor. iSEC Partners, which was contracted to carry out the audit by the Open Crypto Audit Project (OCAP), found 11 vulnerabilities in the full disk and file …
This is extremely good news for anyone who used Truecrypt to protect assets.
The problems found are comparatively minor, easily fixable, and indicative of competent people writing code just outside of their core competencies. That last issue happens on any project anywhere.
Phase 2 will look at the actual encryption code. Unless that is found to be seriously flawed, the insights found from the review will ensure that Truecrypt 8.0 is rock solid and approved by experts.
they could look at OpenSSL once they are finished here...
Re: Maybe
Look at OpenSSL!! Ha! Have you SEEN the code?!
Re: Maybe
I thought this too.
Then I actually spent an idle couple of hours trying to make sense of some of the OpenSSL code.
Now admittedly, my C is a bit rusty but I wouldn't wish the auditing of the clusterfuck of preprocessor directives and godawful coding style that is the OpenSSL codebase on my worst enemy.
If an audit of OpenSSL was 'crowdfunded' (gods, I hate that term) then you'd actually need *two* funds - one to actually pay the auditors to do their thing and another for an extensive course of therapy for the poor sods afterwards.
if there are "backdoors" to be discovered, I would expect to find them in the cryptographic code. since this has yet to be audited, it's too early to declare that truecrypt is kosher.
No you wouldn't. The crypto routines are implemented form a set of standard published algorithms. It is relatively easy to prove that encrypting string X with key Y in truecrypt produces the same output as anyone else's AES
There might be mistakes, there might be bugs which leave memory around and help you guess the keys, there might even be backdoors (if you are truly paranoid) in the original design of the algorithms that the NSA and Bruce put in there and the worlds cryptographers haven't spotted.
But backdoors in the code that allow an NSA passwd to decrypt anything are going to be in the keyhandling. The big concern fro truecrypt users was that on windows you need to run a signed driver which you can't (easily) build yourself - so you have no idea if what you were running was what they claimed.
Core competencies
The problems found are comparatively minor, easily fixable, and indicative of competent people writing code just outside of their core competencies.
Well... some of these errors (the messing with different data types - signed & unsigned integers etc) does not look to my (granted, inexperienced) eye as something a competent programmer would do.
However, yes, the problems do seem fairly minor (once again, no C dev here so I admit my relative ignorance - though I must commend the report writers on their clear explanations)
Phew thank god
My "collection" is safe from the girlfriend although she does have trouble using the PC at the best of times. Maybe it is a cunning façade.
Of course, the real problem is that this audit only took place years after the software has been available. This audit should have taken place on a beta version of the software, and then should be undertaken on a regular basis to ensure no security bugs are introduced with new versions.
While I...
... of course recognise the 'good practice' basis of your comment, given that TrueCrypt is free at point of consumption, who exactly would pay for the type and level of rigour you suggest?
Not in any way intended as a criticism, more a comment on certain limitations imposed on a product such as TrueCrypt and the developers behind it.
As The_Idiot says, where are they going to get the money from to do that on a regular basis? They would have to start charging for it, which would put many people off. Or a rich sponsor.
Doing a Kickstarter is a one of, because it was in the news. That won't work, if you are doing this every year or so.
Where are they going to get the money from? No idea. But it's funny how the 'having no money' issue constantly arises when you give your software away for free, and doesn't arise as often with companies that do not give their software away for free.
They could just create a new kickstarter, saying we want to audit X software package, anyone interested? Donate now! For popular packages and libraries they will get donations.
We are currently having security auditing, including source code done on one of our products. It ain't cheap!
Here's hoping that iSEC Partners are not already subject to a gagging order preventing them from disclosing that Truecrypt is riddled with NSA backdoors!
Indeed, given the environment, why contract an American security firm?
8. MainThreadProc() integer overflow
Is it just me, or does '8. MainThreadProc() integer overflow' sound extremely similar to the heartbleed issue?
Is there an overlap of developers between truecrypt and openssl?
Re: 8. MainThreadProc() integer overflow
Integer overflow is very different from buffer overflow (and to be pedantic, heartbleed is a buffer overread issue). It can cause mathematical issues (e.g., for a signed byte, 100 + 100 = -56), but it's not easy to turn that into a security flaw.
...worse than a colonoscopy
"Probe's nearly all the way in ... no backdoor hit yet"
At least with the colonoscopy the doctors find your backdoor *before* inserting the probe.
What was the thing they found named "_NSAKEY"?
Oh, sorry. My mistake. NSAKEY was found not in TrueCrypt but in Windows itself.
Don't trust iSEC or NCC Group audit
Why can't TrueCrypt be audited by a company that is not based in the UK or in the US - i.e. potentially subject to GCHQ or the NSA leaning on them? iSEC is part of NCC Group - a UK company. I would not trust their audit, not until it is also audited by a company based in a land far-far-away from UK or US.
Re: Don't trust iSEC or NCC Group audit
Probably because any company NOT in bed with the NSA or GCHQ is in bed with someone else. IOW, it's pick your poison.

Comments about Maurices charcoal ruffle top boot socks:
If you have wide calves, don't bother. The socks themselves stretch, but the lace cuff around the top does not. They were so tight when I pulled them up that I had marks after taking them off, even after only wearing them for under a minute.
I find it strange and disappointing that a company like Maurices, which has made and continues to make style for every size such a selling point, manages to fall short (or small) over and over when it comes to providing clothing options for anyone who doesn't fit into a certain body type.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Katherine T. RushfordMarch 23,2013Katherine T. Rushford
CONCORD, Mass. Early on Wednesday, March 13, 2013, Katherine Theresa Rushford died. She was one of a kind.
Born October 22, 1928, she was the youngest of five children born to Mary Beatrice MacDonald and James (Barney) Boyle of Saugus, Massachusetts, and spent much time with her horses and developing what would be a lifelong love of animals.
Kathy grew up in Saugus with her siblings James Bernard, Margaret Louise, Mary Thelma, and Dorothy Marie.
After attending Colby Sawyer College, she moved to Washington, D.C., where she met Don Rushford of Burlington, VT. They were married in 1954 and were very active participants in local religious events.
Together, living in Virginia then Vermont, Kathy and Don raised nine children. Her legacy lives on in them and their families: daughter and son-in-law Beth and Mark Fernald and grandchildren Matthew and Katie of Peterborough, N.H.; son and daughter-in-law Yetta and Janet Rushford of Potomac, MD, and grandchildren Courtney and Kyle; son and daughter-in-law Peter and Susan Rushford of Potomac, MD, and grandchildren Carly and Jack; son Tom Rushford of Falls Church, VA; son and daughter-in-law Tim and Faith Rushford and grandchildren Connor and Ben; daughter Martha Rushford and grandchildren Sam, Emily and Brian; daughter and son-in-law Jennifer and Michael Stone and grandchildren Jamie, Nicholas and Tim; daughter and son-in-law Meg and Rich Pickering and grandchildren Alex and Gracie; son and daughter- in-law Matthew and Julieta Rushford and grandson Storm; and adopted daughter and son-in-law Christine and Neil Henricksen and grandchildren Brian and Jason.
The sheer enormity of her labor of love is not lost:
19,216 dirty diapers (the cloth kind)
49,803 pounds of laundry
46,257 meals prepared
808,566 miles of driving
1,509,361 square feet of house cleaning
$343,722 of groceries purchased
57 puppies
1,127 family birthday parties
900 Christmas gifts wrapped
1,933 field hockey games, baseball games, football games, track meets, cross country meets, ski meets, awards banquets, school plays, dance recitals, music performances, concerts, talent shows, graduations, soccer matches, weddings, bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs, thousands of visits by friends at all hours of the day and night, broken collar bones, dislocated shoulders, cuts, bruises, burns, fractured emotions and broken hearts of all degrees.
Still, sacrifice did not deplete her heart, it expanded it. In spite of the tremendous work related to raising a large family, there was always room for more. When the call for help was made, she stepped forward with open arms welcoming foster children Christine and Alan, along with Willis and others who needed a home.
Kathy worked for Planned Parenthood of Vermont (which raised more than a few eyebrows) and assisting the elderly with RSVP. Later in life, Kathy lived on Nantucket, MA, and most recently Concord, MA.
And so with a mixture of fondness, gratitude and sadness, we say goodbye to Mrs. R, Kathy, Kay, Grammy, Cookie Monster Grammy, Big Mama, That crazy lady with nine kids, Mom.MORE IN Obituaries1125 RH Obits Young brief no photo no flag Full Story1125 RH Obits Brown paid photo no flag Full Story1125 RH Obits Rebideau paid no photo flag Full Story

BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Authorities are searching for a burglar who took $26,000 in cash hidden inside a shoe at a Boynton Beach home.
The Palm Beach Post (http://bit.ly/1hW6pD7 ) reports that a man found his bedroom had been ransacked Monday afternoon while he was out of the home.
To his chagrin, the blue Timberland boot where he kept his money was empty.
Police are still investigating the incident.

Oregon basketball gears up for stretch run
Finish Strong At this point in the season, the Oregon Ducks basketball team could draw some inspiration from a Ducks football team motto: Fast. Hard. Finish. Currently the No. 23 in the country, the Ducks have rebounded in their past three games to mitigate the three straight conference losses they suffered after an injury to Dominic Artis. And while Artis' status is still unknown...

Transmission or Distribution? Reengineering Cost-of-Service Studies for the Emerging Competitive Market
specified as a qualification for primary voltage tariffs. If cost studies are reengineered to segregate primary voltage lines by function (interconnecting to a substation vs. feeding-line transformers), some primary line costs would be reassigned to single- and dual-phase local distribution lines, so one would expect less primary line cost allocated to customers served at primary voltages and more allocated to customers served at secondary voltages. The reengineered study may also draw a distinction based on whether these single- and dual-phase local distribution lines serve any primary voltage load. The extent to which primary load is served from local distribution lines would dictate whether a distinction is made between primary voltage local distribution lines and secondary voltage lines.
For gas operations, pressure serves as the equivalent of voltage, but the type of functionalization described above may be best accomplished for gas mains through size distinctions rather than pressure.
Classifying Line Investment: Demand vs. System Size
In the traditional cost-of-service study performed under regulation, both primary and secondary distribution lines are often classified between demand and customer costs (e.g., as related either to the level of level of demand or capacity, or to the size of the system as expressed by the number of customers). This classification is carried out through assumptions or through formula methods such as the zero intercept or minimum system.
Under competition, however, a reengineering of cost-of-service studies would segregate primary voltage lines as three-phase primary main feeders, or single- and dual-phase primary and secondary voltage local distribution lines. This reengineering would reveal that the allocation methods used to calculate demand-related costs for distribution substations (or gas-measuring and -regulation stations) are also suitable for primary main feeders, because the degree of load diversity is nearly identical. Therefore, reengineering would lead to elimination of any customer cost category for three-phase primary main feeders.
As for local distribution lines, a segregation between demand- and customer-related costs remains justified. Nevertheless, the zero intercept and minimum system methods lead to a misclassification.
The investment in local distribution lines in residential service areas is typically much larger relative to load (or demand) than in commercial or industrial service areas. Further, the relationship between residential and commercial and industrial load will vary by size of community. This relationship can lead to a reflection of customer costs through the use of demand allocation factors suitably weighted to reflect investment differences. Such factors would reflect less load diversity than the factors used for primary main feeders; diversity differences might suggest segregation of primary local distribution lines from secondary local distribution lines. Therefore, reengineering could more accurately reflect cost differences imposed by service area characteristics. Similar service territory differences may exist for gas operations.
Similarly, the investment in line transformers in residential service areas is also typically larger relative to load than in commercial or industrial service areas, and varies by size of community. However, the residential area ratios for line transformers are much lower than the ratios for local distribution lines. The gas equivalent of line transformers (house regulators) are inexpensive and located at the meter, so they

World Orthopaedic Concern
Newsletter No 126 - January 2013
and through Websites:- www.worldortho.com & www.wocuk.org
This Newsletter is circulated through the internet, and through all WOC Regional Secretaries in the hope that they will be able to download and distribute it to those who may not be connected through the "net." It is addressed to all interested in orthopaedic surgery in areas of the world with great need but Limited Resources.
Fresh from the latest Annual SICOT meeting in Dubai (Oct 2012), the next SICOT Conference is already in the process of organisation at the SICOT HQ in Brusselles. The high standard of complex orthopaedics on display at Dubai might generate a reaction this year, when the Indian Organising committee has chosen for its theme, the subtitle for the Congress, - "Orthopaedics in an Unequal World".
Hyderabad, India 17-19 October 2013
The closing date for submissions for this meeting is approaching – March 28th 2013. I need hardly say what an opportunity has been offered by the organisers of this meeting, but at the same time there is a responsibility, not just the wave a flag but to influence the course of global Orthoapaedics. Too often papers, read under the auspices of WOC, are auditing lists of hardships endured and intractable but photogenic deformities shown. Extreme trauma has its own pornography. Safety and simplicity are the signals of success. They do not indicate acceptance of the mediocre.
Apposite to this subject was an all day meeting at the Royal College of Surgeons (Eng) in London, on January 16th 2103, with the title -- GLOBAL FRONTIERS in SURGERY. A busy, packed program covered opportunities for surgeons of every specialty to arrange teaching and training visits to areas with limited (or even absent) resources, with two principle objects; firstly to reawaken the long-ago-learned art of managing without packaged and polished equipment; and secondly to teach and train those who have to manage under those circumstances, every day of the year. Such a visits is educational, but that is a two way process. – for the trainee from the West and for the established Consultant. Both will find themselves to have learned much.
Introducing the subject, Council member Martin Bircher spoke about the attention given to the subject by the Council (RCS) and the collaboration between the other Royal Colleges. By way of an introductory theme, he projected a photograph of Dr Antonio Socrates, whose premature death in Palawan, was announced in the last Newsletter.
Recently retired Consultants attended the meeting in great numbers (N=242), with Registrars in training and senior students, together with abundant NGO societies (dozens) keen to prove their credentials and offer to fund volunteers. Prominent among the presenters were the Royal Colleges of England and Ireland, MSF, VSO, THET, WOC, COSECSA, CURE, Merlin; also many individual local organisations, all devoted to preaching a fundamental faith – to manage without Management. In a slot titled "Lightening Presentations" every organisation was given a strictly limited period of three minutes to convey the core of their message; and afterwards each had a stall in the main room for follow-up questions. All were extremely busy.
The general themes that emerged from the day included the following; 1. that there is an appalling world-wide imbalance in medical care, 2. there is more to medicine than iatropathic disease. 3. that shortage or lack of equipment does not imply impossibility to treat. 4. that a complete undergraduate program in the UK, does not cover the most pressing of the World's epidemics, 5, that time spent engaged in S-S A (=countries as poor as Sub-Saharan Africa) is a positive item on a student's C.V.
The economics of care with limited resources was honestly analysed; the domestic problems of uprooting families during training, the place for clinical research, the responsibility for consultant cover and a reappraisal of surgical priorities, dominated the discussion. Nor were anaesthesia, prosthetics and rehabilitation ignored. There was a general air of optimism and adventure.
The organisers Professor Chris Lavy and Mr Martin Bircher are to be congratulated on a constructive meeting, reviving a real interest in positive medicine rather than defensive damage limitation.
James Waddell writes from Canada:-- "I was saddened to see in your newsletter the notice of the death of Antonio Socrates. He was introduced to us at ARTOF through the Jeffrey Hallett, and participated in some of our meetings. He gave a great talk on looking after these terrible fractures in very difficult circumstances and was a real inspiration to people who want to help in these austere environments. On top of all that, of course, he was a thoroughly nice man.
Professor Iain Patel writes from Myanmar. He still finds fund raising extremely difficult in the present economic "resessional' atmosphere Europe!! He presses on because the Burmese Orthopaedic surgeons, who have developed under Alain's tutelage, are good and they now teach the younger generation. He hopes for relief from the global recession, with revival of the policy which used to provide the major part of his money for his health sector budget.
A message from Dr Oscar Paz Bueno. WOC's representative in Honduras, Central America, a country of modest dimensions, into which 8 million citizens are packed, 85% of whom subsist below the official definition of poverty. He writes about hospitals in his country with space for orthopaedic care but virtually no material equipment. He writes "We read your Newsletter recently and take heart from your initiative to help poor countries, such as ourselves, We hope the initiatives of SICOT might raise the level of Orthopedics in our hospitals. We are clear in your concept that the principal idea is not to send money or second hand materials. We are agree with that principle, and would greatly welcome surgical visitors to our hospitals to teach and train through courses to our Orthopaedic Surgeons.
"As SICOT representative I am my colleagues find it not possible to attend SICOT meeting because of the elevated travel expenses to far Countries in Europe and Asia. If SICOT is really interested to help us, please pass on this appeal, and reply to "
(SICOT National Representative in Honduras)
Orthopaedic Traveling Fellowships
In our attempt to rationalize the organisation of "hands-on" assistance, a select committee has drawn up a general framework for projects which require financial support. The essence of these plans is Training, although it must be acknowledged that the need is for In-Service guided practice. The following is an abbreviation of a proposed submission.
WOC Principles:
WOC's concern and involvement in surgical education and training are exercised at several levels, depending upon the local circumstances, in medical manpower and equipment. Our proposal is for surgical instruction in the following four categories:-
1. In the absence of almost all facilities, instruction might be given (with cooperation) to any to whom the patient, with an injury or musculoskeletal disease, has traditionally turned. This might for example, be nurses or teachers in the rural community, the Clinical Officers (so successfully developed by Ed BlaIr, in Malawi), or more probable than any, the traditional healers. Where local politics allow, teaching and training to a level slightly above "First Aid" can be offered, with emphasis on that which is safe and unlikely to make things worse. This will include splintage, with a mind to preservation of both the circulation and nerve function to distal parts of a limb. The standard of teaching would be equivalent to that appropriate to undergraduate medical students.
2. The second category is the young qualified doctors, who might be attracted to the possibility of pursuing a career in orthopaedics. For these the basic science of tissue repair, physical examination, musculo-skeletal pathology, fracture reduction with splintage or traction, are the building blocks of such a career. It must be born in mind that those who serve sub-saharan Africa, and like places, have to be able to deal with clinics of 60 patients at a time. Therefore the technique of physical examination has to be streamlined to essentials, often needing short-cuts when compared with classical western instruction. (There is an important difference between a large clinic and an oral interrogation for a Surgical Mastership.) The most valuable and informative moment is when the patient walks towards the doctor's desk and his mode of gait is clearly to be seen.
3. The third level calls for "hands-on" training for standard orthopaedic surgical procedures, and their complications (-- avoidance and salvage) to be carried out with assistance in the under-resourced community. This will be set against the background of the biomechanics of structural skeletal repair and replacement. It is the area in which experience is gained and hard lessons learned, but its provision depends on established sterile surgical technique. There is also a place for highly specialised surgery (difficult by virtue of anatomical complexity, rather than hardware) to be tackled in host hospitals, particularly if groups of similar pathology can be collected together in advance.
4. The last and by no means least important, is special training for those selected as being proficient in the fundamentals, to be sent to special centres where particular techniques are regularly in use on types of patient comparable with those common in the trainee's home country. But it is equally important that attendance at these courses should be confined to those who, in their own country, would be able to make use of such special training in his practice. In other words plans must be appropriate to prospects in their home hospital - that relevant equipment will be available and will be regularly serviced with spare parts. It is not in the interest of the home hospital that one of its trainees becomes proficient in surgery which is inappropriate or not available, at home.
The first three categories call for visiting teachers to the place of limited resource, so that every part is relevant to the community, and contributes to the local service. The forth category calls for national organisation at not too great a distance from the home hospital, for example the training centres in Egypt, India and possibly Russia, and others yet to be selected and supervised.
With regard to the expense of the above categories, the first three will call for some support towards the cost of travelling to the deprived area. And most of all they depend on the numbers of potential host institutions making the necessary invitations and arrangements. Local accommodation is not expensive, sometimes free, at the invitation of the host hospital. It has been suggested that in return for tuition, given freely, 50% of travelling expanses would be sufficient encouragement. Volunteer visits depend absolutely upon personal invitation and therefore local appreciation of the value of these visits.
The quality of the visitors may be an unknown to the host hospital at their first visit. It will therefore be the responsibility of the parent organisation that a volunteer knows exactly what is required, that he is willing and able to provide it and that two referees be prepared to vouch for his or her competence.
In the last edition of this newsletter, there is an announcement which is open to misinterpretation. Under the heading or "Orthopedics Overseas" we announced Dr Gary Anderson's new venture in reviving OREF, a research and service organisation for places of Low Income. We may have conveyed the impression that he was new Chairman of O.O. (rather than or OREF). That is not the case Dr Fisher remains the energetic lead of O.O. ..

Once the refresh is seen and Windows loads up you may have to go into the Control Panel>Network & Sharing Center to use the Network troubleshooting tool to allow the fresh detection of the active connection keeping a watch on the network icon if displayed on the taskbar. That should then change from red X to amber then to green once the reconnect is complete.

To be sure however you can simply go right to the Dell support site and look up that model for the latest available which should list each driver set and what it is for.

You had to know Hollywood´s left would ruin the movie as they have comic book characters.No more stars and stripes on Captain America because they offend overseas audiences.Lois Lane having an out of wedlock kid..Charlton Heston really set the bar on biblical movies in the Ten Commandments,one of the best all time movies of any genre.There´s no way the left would accept that God destroyed the .planet because of all the derelict behavior going on,so it had to be some other reason like over population which the left claims is one of the things contributing to climate change.Another thing in today´s movies is it seems that word of mouth has little or no effect on giving a movie legs for months on end.When I was a kid,the Ten Commandments played at one theater for over a year.There was a time when an Oscar was a huge deal, along with a lot of prestige for the actor/actress. Now you can be a B-List actor and get an award just because of the movie´s name.

http://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/sdg-reviews-noahStephen Graydanus is a Catholic movie critic whose views I tend to agree with. Here is his thoughtful review. Noah takes some material from the Book of Enoch (an ancient Jewish religious work)as well as Genesis. Evidently it is a bit heavy handed on global warming (and I will be thrilled when that goes away) but all in all he loved the movie.

IPSSSDR Promises Keen Competition
The 19th annual International Pedigree Stage Stop Sled Dog Race begins from the Jackson town square one week from today with 17 competitors registered to participate. That's down from 21 racers last year, but Race Director Dan Carter says the competition will be very keen. Carter points in particular to Defending Champion Aaron Peck who will be returning to defend his title while Previous Four-time Champion Bud Streeper will be back to attempt to regain his title from Peck. The race course once again takes the mushers through over a dozen communities in Western Wyoming, Southwestern Montana, Eastern Idaho and the northeast corner of Utah. It kicks off with a vet check next Friday and ceremonial start at 6:30 pm. Carter promises, "We will have live music from our traveling band, Screen Door Porch; we will have a food tent with Dutch oven barbecue; we will have the Jumbo-tron set up again…to broadcast video and the live start; and then after the race finishes at Snow King, we're going to have a torch-light parade and fireworks display, and there'll be an open party." Carter says the public will be able to meet the competitors personally at that party. Race Sponsor Pedigree will once again provide food for the animal shelters in each of the communities through which the race passes.

- Written by Rachel Star of Sedona
- Published: January 3rd, 2014
New Year's Day brings an unusual Heavenly event, and the beginning of Big Change. We have a New Moon on the same morning! That hasn't occurred in a Very Long time, as you might imagine. But there are some things that make it Much More Unusual.
As with all New Moons, as they grow in size (until they are Full Moons) so will new beginnings for each of us, grow larger like a seed that will sprout. New Moons bring in new opportunities for new beginnings once a month, every month of every year, and this Moon starts growing smack dab, first thing in the morning Jan. 1. Not only does that assist us in sprouting our New Year's resolutions beginning right away, no waiting 'lines,' but there's more. The news just gets bigger.
To set the stage, I'll remind you of a few things. The Moon circles the zodiac once a month; the Sun once a year. Mercury and Venus are similar to completing one cycle in one year. Mars takes 2 years. Then there are the planets that take longer, like Jupiter which takes 12 years, all the way out to Pluto's 248 years. But the Moon and the Sun meet up in the sky 'for coffee and conversation' once each month; and we call it a New Moon event.
This New Moon occurs in the zodiac placement of Capricorn so we are beginning new traits and characteristics that resonate with Capricorn. That includes the structure and bones of who we are. It covers traditions and the way things have always been…so usually once a year we build new structures that we can depend upon. Capricorn works hard and this New Moon will be a whopper of new design if you work it.
Because the outer planets take So long to make one complete cycle around the zodiac, when they make a geometrical aspect to other heavenly bodies, their effect is heard round the world, let's say. These are the big spenders with the big stakes. This New Moon brings us not just one powerful aspect, mind you, but a bowl-ful go along with this Lunation Jan. 1. Not your usual football game in the local park, this is Superbowl.
The geometrical aspects that occur with our heavenly planetary bodies that same morning, are spoon-bending, mind-bending, life bending. Things will be a popping in January and will show up again with more results in April!! We have the four action-starter zodiac signs making a square aspect to each other like on the 3 bases and home plate of baseball. The bases are loaded, there are no 'outs,' a home run is happening and the score changes dramatically. You are part of that major event. Pluto has exposed to us for years what old traditions are outdated, broken down and need major overhaul. Now it begins building state-of-the-art.
Uranus in Aries is about shaking up the status quo and starting over, asking who am I, who do I want to be and giving us courage to build a new and better identity. Mars in Libra gives us the motivation and energy to get 'er done with beauty, grace, building better relationships. Jupiter in Cancer brings a higher mind, expansion and blessings to family, home and countries, setting a new stage to nurture and protect our earth home. These planets in a square means there's no way out of the box. It must be done (on earth as it is in heaven.) Resistance isn't in our best interests, right?
You've likely been thinking a lot for some time about what you would like to happen in your life. Well the universe always listens and I hope it has been positive and empowering because you get what you believe. Now is the time to focus strongly, speak it, write it, feel it passionately. Do it!
I know someone who feels this could be the time for healing from a long-term challenging health issue, another who has just made a decision to prepare her path ahead to eventually leave a relationship that has been loveless from the start, as well as demeaning; ready to leap, opening to her personal power to make way for potential joys. Another person is going to fulfill a lifetime dream that takes great endurance. These are not just changing a hairstyle or moving to a new apartment episodes.
Work it, work it, work it. Keep negative thoughts at bay always, but especially now. The cornerstones are shifting and you will have a new view. Don't be sidetracked by any other change you hear about; it's all about YOU.
Love from Rachel Star of Sedona
