|Sepharial's Arcana & Keys
The Arcana Of Stock & Share Key.
Key To Sugar Values.
The Master Key
The Golden Key.
The Eclipse System.
The Solar Lunar Values
The Solar Apex Method.
Sepharial (Walter Gorn Old)
Sepharial's Arcanas or Keys are his rarest and most important writings, being distilled applications of his most important techniques and systems. To originally acquire these writings Sepharial required a written application and signature of a non-disclosure agreement. Due to these restrictions, these writings have always been the hardest writings of Sepharial to find. This collection contains a sampling of these writings. The Arcana Of Stock & Share Key, and Key To Sugar Values, are direct facsimiles of the original documents. The Master Key, Golden Key & Eclipse System are transcribed reproductions, of these very rare works primarily focused on forecasting of horse races. About the Master Key, Sepharial said, "This system is deemed to be the final word in racing Systems. It embodies the result of 11 years of observation and research and is itself the easiest and most reliable of the many attempts that have been made to fathom the profundities of racing problems and it is claimed that The Master Key leaves others behind and gives the best results." The Golden Key, Sepharial comments, "is only published in typed script under an agreement which secures privacy and non-publication. This is the method I have employed in regard to all my Arcana. It would have been quite easy for me to have published the Golden Key as a book and in all probability it would have sold in thousands at a good price. But in doing so I should have emasculated its working value to all who possessed it." The Eclipse System was written sometime after the Golden Key, to which it refers, and it mentions recent racing from 1917. Some consider this Sepharial's most reliable system. The Solar Lunar Values & Solar Apex Method are brief summaries of the rules applied by these systems. Altogether this is the most complete collection of these rare materials ever offered, and should serve as an excellent guide into Sepharials deepest work.

|NEW! 1000 Pages of Sepharial Articles!
Sepharial's Monthly Column In
The British Journal of Astrology
Volume 1 (1916-1923) Volume 2 (1924-1930)
Sepharial (Walter Gorn Old)
Original Journals 1916-1939, Compilation 2010. Vol. 1 511 Pages, Vol. 2 601 Pages. We are pleased to make available this new collection of Sepharial's monthly column, The Kaleidoscope, from The British Journal of Astrology. The Kaleidoscope served as the centerpiece of this famous astrological journal, being at least 6 pages of each approximately 16 page issue. Sepharial produced this column for 22 years from sometime around 1908 until his death in 1929. The pieces contained within this journal represent a huge bulk of Sepharial's complete writings, in total around 2000 pages of content, most of which has never been seen since it was originally published 100 years ago. This collection contains 1000 pages of those articles. Some researchers are of the opinion that these monthly articles contain the very best of Sepharial's writings, since knowing that these journals had a small print run and were less likely to be preserved, Sepharial would reveal insights and concepts that he was reluctant to include in the more permanent and easily preserved format that his published books represented. Indeed, this has proven to be the case, since in the 100 years since Sepharial began writing these articles, there has never yet been a compilation of them made available, until now. Included in this collection of articles is a vast wealth of fascinating and profound writings by one of the greatest fathers of modern astrology. Sepharial's Kaleidoscope presents an ongoing monthly commentary upon world events with their astrological correlations and significances. It is fascinating to see the world through the esoteric perception of one of the founders of the modern astrological movement, and hear explained by him how stellar influences affect global events. Along with this, there are secondary articles on various astrological subjects, often first presented here before being published in his books, or never later published at all.

|The Book of Enoch The Prophet.
Richard Laurence, LL.D.
1838, 250p. Considered one of the most important books left out of the Bible, and a primary source and inspiration of early Christianity. What is of particular importance in this book is its presentation of Time Cycles, making this more than a spiritual text, but an important Cosmological Treatise, and Ancient presentation of Time Cycles. Referred to by Blavatsky in the Secret Doctrine, this work presents many Ancient & Prophetic Mysteries.

|Zen-Yoga: A Creative Psychotherapy to Self-Integration.
P.J. Saher
1976 Originally, 2002 Edition published by Motilal Banarsidass, India. This book contains a surprise beyond its excellent, highly scientific, mystical instructions. In the back it includes 25 Diagrams by Eberhard Wortmann, the only modern author to be acknowledged by Hermann Hesse as a master of the Glass Bead Game. Surprisingly, there is no reference made or credit given to Wortmann in the book, the diagrams are just mysteriously included, with brief one line descriptions of shocking content value. Wortmann's diagrams are probably the most advanced sacred geometry diagrams ever conceived & all were inspired from Plato's Timeaus/Republic. Since Wortmann's works are all in German, this is the only clue we have in English to his mysterious and superb work! Besides the diagrams, this books presents a spiritual science of meditation and mastery with a scientific basis the like of which we have not seen before, but most closely resembling the initiatory path of Franz Bardon, though focused more on mysticism than magic. Contents: Mind & Thinking; Drifts of the Mind & What They Convey; Do We Think & How?; Must We Sleep & How Much?; Expanding Consciousness; Breathing & Its Relationship To Conscious & Life; Spiritual Planes; Avoidable Mistakes; The Centres (Chakras) & Their Mechanism; Use of Free Will in Trifles; Correct Methods of Daily Living; Progress on the Path; Will-Force; Internal Non-Equilibrium of Centres; How to Restore Equilibrium of Centres; Purpose of Life & Birth; Unpublished Secrets of Zen & Yoga; Pratyahara; Self-Conquest; Laws of Spiritual Success; Liberation from Bondage to Ego; Yoga Sutras; The 60 Secret Steps To Salvation; Mysteries of Higher Grades of Salvation; Practical Exercises; Celestial Influence or Intensities of Celestial Bodies; Neuro-Physiological Basis of our Mind. 25 Wortmann Diagrams!!! Sample Wortmann Captions: Geometrical Structure of Dharmakaya. The "Milky Way" seen as an exact Replica of psycho-astrological Meridian Points in the brain. The brain as pivot of the seven channels leading to it from the Centres-Mandala of the Esoteric Sciences. The principal Three Centres working in cosmic harmony with the Phases of the MOON. The central star as the macrocosmic Centre co-ordinating the micro-cosmic Centres. The anatomical brain reconstructed as a Computer kybernetically co-ordinating the Centres.

Invitation to a dialog between two theoretical approachesWestenholz, Ann (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Two theoretical approaches – Conventions and Institutional Logics – are brought together and the similarities and differences between the two are explored. It is not the intention to combine the approaches, but I would like to open both 'boxes' and make them available to each other with the purpose of creating a space for dialog. Both approaches were developed in the mid-1980s as a reaction to rational-choice economic theory and collectivistic sociological theory. These two theories were oversimplifying social life as being founded either in actor-micro level analyses or in structure-macro level analyses. The theoretical quest of both Conventions and Institutional Logics has been to understand the increasing indeterminacy, uncertainty and ambiguity in people's lives where a sense of reality, of value, of moral, of feelings is not fixed. Both approaches have created new theoretical insights by overcoming traditional micro-macro and actor-structure dimensions. However, they have also achieved this in different ways and I ask if there is a benefit to 'importing' some of these differences into the other approach. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8792

A literature review and a suggestion of how to study the issueWestenholz, Ann (, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Purpose: First, the aim is to clarify that it is worth investigating working life in Chinese companies located in Denmark. Second, I outline a way of how to empirically study the issue. Design/methodology/approach: A literature review and a suggestion of how to study the issue. Findings: There is a growing amount of literature dealing with Chinese and Western working life. The term 'Western' mostly refers to studies in North America. However the Danish way of organizing working life is not comparable to that of North America. I argue that we need to research the impact on working life in Denmark when Chinese companies settle in an institutional context like the Danish one. It is shown that Chinese institutional orders of organizing working life are very different to those in Denmark. I outline a method of how to empirically study the interaction between Chinese and Danish managers and employees working together in Chinese companies in Denmark. I argue that when these people work together, they also become engaged in institutional work dealing with the inconsistencies between the institutional orders of organizing. To study how institutional work emerges, I propose that we take inspiration from Boltanski and Thévenot's theory of justification, different worlds, and different worth. Research limitation: The empirical data gathering has just started and the analysis has yet to be conducted. Practical implications: Even though the paper is not based on an empirical study, implications for studying how working life is organized in Chinese companies located in Denmark are suggested. Keywords: Internationalization of Chinese companies. Institutional orders of working life in China and Denmark. Institutional work in Chinese companies settled in Denmark. Boltanski and Thévenot's theory of justification, different worlds, and different worth. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8644

Westenholz, Ann (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Purpose: Very little research has been done to find out what happens to organizing in Chinese companies that are located in countries characterized by cooperative capitalism. I focus on this phenomenon and explore what happens to organizing in two Chinese high-tech companies located in Denmark. Design/methodology/approach: Case studies, interviewing, and three questions inspired by the work of Boltanski & Thévenot: 1) What type of test scenarios are the Chinese and Danes becoming engaged in? 2) Which worlds are called upon as justification of actions by the Chinese and Danes in the test scenarios? 3) How do they discover their relative worth in different worlds enacted in the test scenarios? Findings: The analysis shows that controversies have emerged in test scenarios where Chinese managers and engineers have enacted a market world and a domestic world, while Danish managers and engineers have enacted an industrial world and a civic world. Furthermore, it is suggested that controversies also occur when Chinese managers enact a fuzzy world. Different worlds collide in these types of test scenarios, creating ambiguity about the worth of the persons involved and the organizing principles in their practices. The Chinese and the Danes deal with the ambiguity in many different ways. Research limitation: Few cases exist and the data is limited. Practical implications: The analysis creates learning opportunities for Chinese and Danish managers and highly qualified employees. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8793

A case study of a commercial and open source software communityWestenholz, Ann (Boston, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper builds on a long tradition in the Scandinavian countries for using empirical case studies to analyse the way in which organizations respond to different widespread institutional logics. The paper proposes five organizational responses: resistance to new logics; replacement of an old logic for a new one; co-existence of old and new logics; competition between old and new logics; and finally, hybridization of old and new logics. Following a historical account of how a commercial and open source community has developed, the paper goes on to analyse why this organization responds in a hybridizing way to two widespread institutional logics within software development (i.e. the institutional logic of technology and the institutional logic of capitalism). In the case, the analysis identifies the combination of four elements as influential on the hybridizing process: 1) external inspiration – no external pressures or shocks; 2) organizational members as institutional audience; 3) frames following the logic of appropriateness – not only the logic of consequentiality; and 4) organizational institutional leadership defining hybrid frames. By way of conclusion, the paper discusses the need to transgress macro/structure and micro/actor dimensions, and suggests insights to be gained by combining institutional theory with the Chicago School"s interactionist"s approach and performance theory.

Kommercialisering af open source software i Danmark og institutionelle entreprenørers rolle i udviklingenWestenholz, Ann (København, 2007)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Rapporten beskæftiger sig med udviklingen af kommercialisering af open source i Dan-mark ud fra den antagelse, at når open source software i dag i stigende grad bliver taget alvorligt af forretningsverdenen, er det ikke kun fordi IT virksomheder gennem open source udviklingsmodeller har udviklet konkurrencedygtige softwareprodukter, men også fordi der er lavet et stykke samfundsmæssigt institutionelt arbejde, som har normaliseret (om end ikke gjort det problemfrit), at IT virksomheder indgår i udviklingsmodeller, hvor alle har ret-ten til at kopiere, distribuere og modificere kildekoder i et stykke software. Fokus i rappor-ten er på sådanne 'institutionelle entreprenører', som på trods af den hidtidige copyright institution i forretningsverdenen har fået sat en anden dagsorden, hvor det i stigende grad er blevet naturligt at tænke i open source software, som et produkt, man kan skabe en for-retning omkring.

A literature review and a suggestion of how to study the issueWestenholz, Ann (, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Very little research – if any – has been done to find out what happens to leadership and working live when Chinese companies settle in Denmark. This paper argues that it is worth investigating this topic, as I assume that the numbers of Chinese companies locating themselves in Denmark will increase in the coming years. The aim of the paper is firstly to give an overview of the literature that deals with the development of Chinese companies going abroad, and it is shown that the direct outward investments of China is experiencing a rapid growth. Secondly I like to look at leadership and working lives in China, and the lesson learned from the literature is that leadership and working life in China is diverse and continuously evolving. But some trends may be identified like different institutional regimes and different types of companies. Thirdly I look at leadership and working life in Denmark, and I compare leadership and working life in the two countries showing that there are many differences. These differences may have an impact on the way Chinese companies handle their encounters with 'strangers' when they establish themselves abroad, but we do not know if this is happening. I conclude by outlining a way of how to empirically study the interaction between Chinese and Danish managers and employees working together in a Chinese company in Denmark.

How much and how often should you feed your fish?
Overfeeding is the most common mistake fish owners make. Overfeeding clogs the filter, and breaks down into toxins that are harmful to fish. Hence the warnings on the packages.In nature fish eat whenever they are hungry and food is available. If food sources are plentiful, they will eat several times a day. On the other hand, if food sources are scarce, they might go for days between meals. For this reason, fish are very opportunistic and will eat whenever they have a chance. That means that if you offer them food, they will usually gobble it up even if they aren't starving. Keep that in mind the next time your fish 'beg' for food. Fish quickly learn who brings the food to the tank and will jump at the chance to be fed, even if they are not in dire need of food.How OftenSo how often, and how much should fish be fed? Frequency will vary based on the type of fish. In general most fish do quite well on one feeding per day. However, some owners prefer to feed their fish twice a day. Regardless of one or two feedings, the key is to keep the feedings very small. The timing is not critical, with the exception of nocturnal feeders, such as certain catfish. If you have nocturnal fish in your tank, be sure to feed them just before turning the lights out at night.There are some exceptions to the once per day feeding rule. Herbivores (vegetarians) need to eat frequently because they do not have large stomachs to hold a lot of food. In nature they would graze all day long on plants. They should be given several small feedings a day, or provided with live plants they can nibble. Newly hatched fry and young fish not fully grown, require more frequent feedings of special foods designed for fry.How MuchAs for how much food to feed, a good rule of thumb is to feed no more than the fish will consume completely in less than five minutes. When in doubt, underfeed! You can always give them another small feeding if necessary. However, if you overfeed the uneaten food will produce by-products which can be harmful to the fish. In the event you do overfeed, promptly remove the uneaten food using a siphon or net.

text: Dallas Safari Club Going On A Lion Hunt Safari industry pledges support for DSC lion policy Going On A Lion Hunt DALLAS — More than 70 major safari operators, hunting industry leaders and top conservationists have pledged to support Dallas Safari Club's (DSC) newly adopted definition of the ideal huntable male African lion.The definition reads: "The ideal huntable male lion is at least six years of age and is not known to head a pride or be part of a coalition heading a pride with dependent cubs."DSC adopted the position as a way to urge hunters to self-impose harvest restrictions.Overharvest of young male lions could reduce lion populations overall, posing a real concern to the conservation and scientific management of this iconic species. Furthermore, such reductions in numbers would lead wildlife authorities to reduce quotas. However, research shows that hunting older male lions has no negative effect on populations. Encouraging lion hunters to be more selective is a DSC conservation move being applauded by biologists and professional hunters across Africa."Hunting only non-pride and non-adolescent male lions should be the goal of every responsible hunter and organization with a vested interest in conserving lion populations," DSC Executive Director Ben Carter said. "We're encouraged by the broad outpouring of support that we've received since announcing the new DSC position just one week ago."Supporters are pledging to incorporate the DSC definition into their business and personal practices. To date, the growing list of supporters includes Outdoor Channel's Jim Shockey and a long list of safari outfitters, and DSC officials expect more pledges of support in coming days.To further encourage selective hunting, DSC adopted a new club policy: "No DSC member will be eligible for any DSC recognition or trophy award unless the member's lion trophy submission is a fully mature lion as determined in the sole discretion of the DSC awards committee."Carter said, "DSC's mission, in part, is to promote to the world the success of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. Responsible lion hunting, based on the latest science-based wildlife management principles, is a proven essential component of the complex policy formula that will preserve wild African lions and their habitat for future generations."For several years, DSC has been funding scientific research on African lions. Understanding lion population dynamics is one of many projects supported by DSC grants to advance conservation, education and hunter advocacy worldwide.About Dallas Safari Club (DSC)Desert bighorns on an unbroken landscape, stalking Cape buffalo in heavy brush, students discovering conservation. DSC works to guarantee a future for all these and much more. An independent nonprofit organization since 1982, DSC has become an international leader in conserving wildlife and wilderness lands, educating youth and the general public, and promoting and protecting the rights and interests of hunters worldwide.

A Government department's website was taken offline by a cyber attack which bombarded it with access requests.
The Ministry of Justice said the website was temporarily knocked out by a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack, which involves overloading the target's systems.
The department wrote on Twitter: "Unfortunately the Justice website is down following a DDoS attack last night, we are working hard to bring it back online ASAP."
The website was later restored after several hours offline.

Magic Cipher: Usage Scenarios and Examples
Example 1: One to One Private Communications
Bill and Ted are ready to start making plans for their next Excellent Adventure. Knowing that their email discussions could be intercepted and easily read, they use the Magic Cipher Shared Secret Generator with it's Strength Meter to create a Shared Secret they can use together.
They type their discussions into Magic Cipher and email the contents as encrypted text directly from within Magic Cipher. They are now secure in the knowledge that no-one can obtain access to their plans and attempt to put a spanner in the works!
Example 2: One to Many Private Communications
Bill and Ted decide they want to involve the Historical Babes in some of their plans, but not all. The four of them agree a Shared Secret and now Bill and Ted can communicate between themselves using their own Shared Secret and if they wish to include the Historical Babes they use the second Shared Secret previously agreed between the four of them.
Example 3: One to Many Private Communications over a Public Medium
Frodo is setting off on his next adventure and as is the fashion nowadays he wants to update the world with his travels via an online blog. With his new Macbook Pro this will be easy enough, however there is certain information he wishes only to be read and understood by Merry and Pippin who are holding the fort for him back in Hobbiton.
Before he sets off the three of them agree on a Shared Secret and as Frodo updates the world via his blog he uses Magic Cipher to append an encrypted entry on the end of his posts, in a separate paragraph, knowing that the world can see but not read or understand his instructions, which are only for the eyes of Merry and Pippin. Frodo uses the built in Virtual Keyboard to add a little bit of extra security to his posts.
Example 4: The Benefits of Cross Platform
Unfortunately, small, slim and gorgeous though it is, the Macbook Pro is just a little bit too big and let's face it, expensive to take across Middle Earth, what with the danger from the Orcs and other dark forces.
At the last minute Frodo decides to switch to a small Linux notebook which he obtained free of charge with his mobile broadband card. Luckily Magic Cipher works as well on Linux as it does on macOS or Windows, so Frodo has no need to change his plans, or his choice of encryption software.
Example 5: Magic Cipher, Not Just for Men
While Frodo is off on his travels his wife, feeling lonely, takes a lover. Knowing that the local Hobbiton ISP takes quite an interest in emails to and from the villagers, they both use Magic Cipher to arrange their rendezvous. Even hobbits need loving.
Besides it was rather selfish of Frodo to disappear like that for months at a time and who knows what he got up to with Sam on that epic journey?
Example 6: A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words …
Sat on his sofa safe back at home several months after his epic journey to Mordor, Frodo dreams of his next challenge. With Sam on board, who now lives several miles away in Bree, Frodo and Sam use the Steganography features of Magic Cipher to enable them to swap ideas and plans which they have hidden in pictures which they upload to their Facebook pages.
With no evidence that their pictures are anything more than rather boring pictures of Sams garden or Frodos wine collection, nobody has any clue that there is another adventure being planned. In fact nobody has any reason to suspect Sam and Frodo are even in communication regularly. Problem Solved!

Magic Cipher: The Story [1/2]
In 2007 I'd just launched my first application for the Mac, macVCR and I was looking for inspiration for my next project. I had long recognised the need for a simple and easy to use encryption program and hadn't been able to find one. I decided my goal should be to create one. Not only would this 'scratch an itch' it would hopefully go on to become a successful product in its own right. If I needed this then so did others.
The problem was that I used, and still do, macOS, Windows and Linux on a regular basis, and so would some of my customers. If they, for example, use Windows now – they may use macOS in the future. For this to be a worthwhile endeavour my product would have to run on those three major operating system platforms and provide transparency and compatibility between them. This was no longer a small project.
To make this product a reality I chose Xojo as a development platform, or REALStudio as it was then known, and set to work creating R10Cipher.
The first thing I needed was a Vision Statement, something to guide me during development and help focus my thoughts. I settled on the following:
A Simple and Easy Method to Safely Encrypt your Email Correspondence and Document Files. It's like your emails and documents are carried by a SWAT team rather than being written on a Postcard ! R10Cipher is for Individuals. For Businesses. For You. For Me. For Mum and Dad. For Teachers. For Professionals. For Journalists. For Executives. For Everybody. Because our Privacy and Security have never been more important.
The next thing I needed to do was decide on what encryption technology to use. AES was relatively new at the time and was still looked at suspiciously by many Americans following the whole 'Clipper Chip' incident. In the end I settled on a UK invented encryption technology called Blowfish. Blowfish is a keyed symmetric block cipher which was invented by 'Security Guru' and renowned author Bruce Schneier in 1993. It provides excellent encryption and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Blowfish is free of patents and back doors, and Bruce has placed Blowfish in the public domain.
Version 1 of R10Cipher was released in 2008 and sold only a few dozen copies. Using the feedback from these early customers Version 2 was released with some significant enhancements including drag and drop batch encryption of files and documents.
When Version 2 was released, Version 1 was featured as a free edition on the DVD Cover Disks for the glossy UK editions of MacFormat and MacWorld magazines, on consecutive months. Since then I have agreed for it to be distributed on several foreign editions of the magazines. Hundreds of new users were gained through the distribution of the free edition, and many of those went on to pay for an upgrade to Version 2.
Direct Sales of Version 2 were excellent, with good feedback and testimonials. New customers means new ideas and feature requests and so Version 3 was scheduled.
Version 3 released 2nd August 2009 was a major new version that addressed all user requests from Versions 1 and 2. The main advantages of Version 3 were an increase in encryption strength to 384 Bit, an encryption strength indicator and a full Key Management capability which creates an encrypted local database which contains the 'Shared Secrets' that you use to communicate with your different contacts.
Interest in Version 3 was phenomenal, it far exceeded my expectations. I had many upgrades from Version 2 to Version 3 and as I offered an upgrade policy even from the free edition, I have had a few upgrade from Version 1 to Version 3 also.
2009 also saw R10Cipher become a Finalist in the UK IT Industry Awards, Technology Excellence / Information Security Product category. The UK IT Industry Awards are held annually by Computing Magazine and the British Computer Society.
In April 2010 in conjunction with MacFormat Magazine I offered a free Version 2.5 SE on the DVD Cover Disk with a discounted upgrade to Version 3. This promotion was not as successful as earlier promotions, possibly because 2.5 SE was a 'designed to be free' product, rather than an actual previously sold version. In addition Version 3 had at this stage been out for a while.
Version 4 of R10Cipher was released in June 2010, with Version 5 being released in July 2012.
Commercially R10Cipher has been a great success for me with several thousand users and it is a product I am very proud of. Just as importantly, my customers have had immediate and measurable benefits through the use of R10Cipher. Previously they knew they needed something to protect their communication and documents, but they could not find a product that seemed easy and simple enough for them to use. R10Cipher filled that requirement.
IT Security and Data Protection were and are high on many peoples agendas at the moment, or at least they should be, and yet the majority of people are left exposed because until R10Cipher came along there was not a product simple and easy and complete enough for them to consider using it.
Here are some paragraphs about R10Cipher, back in the day:
R10Cipher is unique in that this is the first cross platform end to end encryption product that real people can and will use for day to day encryption purposes. R10Cipher does not attempt to encrypt a complete volume, R10Cipher does not try and involve the user with complex Public Key encryption, R10Cipher does not need a complicated install, in fact R10Cipher does not need installing at all. R10Cipher concentrates on being the easiest to use and most reliable End to End, Text and File Encryption software.
The lack of an installation makes R10Cipher unique in that you can copy the Windows (XP, Vista and 7), Mac OSX and Linux versions of R10Cipher to a USB drive or external device, along with your documents and carry your data about with you knowing that a) You can access that data on any computer and b) It is secure, so if you lose it or leave it in a taxi then the information is unreadable and no harm is done.
Because of it's simplicity and ease of use R10Cipher pioneers new ways of working. Backup your important data to the web, iCloud, Dropbox or similar – encrypted by R10Cipher, and retrieve the information later, wherever you happen to be. Your data is secure – secured by you not by your web hosting company. If your hosting company is enforced by law to hand over your information, that information is useless to the recipient unless *you* agree to provide access.
The main innovation of R10Cipher therefore is not in the technology but the way in which the product is designed to be easy and simple to use for everybody – not just IT Professionals.
This brings us nearly up to date. I should perhaps mention that R10Cipher took a back seat for me, as did my other commercial products, between 2012 and 2016. This was due to personal and health problems involving, amongst other things, Motorcycles and Air Ambulance Helicopters.
R10Cipher was never forgotten and when the chance came to resurrect it through an acquisition by Area51 Limited I was extremely pleased. Not only could the product be re-written, updated and enhanced and once again made available, but I would be backed up by others who could step into my shoes and continue development, should the worse ever happen.
2016: Magic Cipher was born. Press Release

Hello Peeps :)
Just a quick post from me today as i am off to Exeter Craft Show, been a few months since i visited a craft show so i am off to have a crafty shopping spree, hopefully pick up some bargains too! I am also posting my card a day early as we have the launch of our challenge tomorrow! Today i have am with a quick & easy card. This week our theme is Something New so i thought i would ink up one of my new sets of The Alley Way Stamps.
I love bee images, i have to confess i have quite a few, there is something cheerful about them, maybe it's because they are bright yellow and that cheers me up! This stamp is from the Priceless Joy Set which is full of uber cute little images. I coloured up mr bee with my Copics and i stamped the bzzz sentiment a few times to create a sentiment banner. I also used an SU embossing folder & some Pink Petticoat Digi Honeycomb papers!
Thanks for stopping by today :)

SMOS has a better look at salinity
Earth observation measurements shouldn't be taken with a pinch of salt. ESA is comparing readings of sea-surface salinity from drifting floats to confirm the SMOS water mission's measurements.
Since its launch in 2009, ESA's Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite has been helping us to understand the water cycle.
As with any Earth observation mission, it is important to validate the readings acquired from space. This involves comparing the satellite data with measurements taken directly in the water.
For SMOS, that means comparing its readings to data from floats or drifters that measure ocean salinity at different depths.
One of the major networks of in-situ drifters is Argo. The network, involving over 50 research and operational agencies in more than 30 countries, uses autonomous floats to collect temperature, salinity and deep current data.
With over 3500 active drifters, the Argo floats acquire in situ data in the upper 2000 m of the ocean.
These measurements are then directly compared to SMOS data, which in turn cover the global ocean and provide measurements of the salinity in the first centimetre of the sea surface.
SMOS provides measurements averaged over a surface of 40x40 sq km, but the difference of the size of the area measured and other influencing factors like background noise lead to differences between SMOS and Argo measurements.
"Since Argo measurements are taken much deeper than SMOS's, the stratification of the upper layer of the ocean needs to be taken into account when comparing the two salinities in rainy regions," said Jacqueline Boutin from France's Laboratory for Oceanography and Climate (LOCEAN).
"For example, rain over the ocean will cause SMOS to pick up lower salinity readings than Argo."
The advantage that SMOS has over the Argo floats is that the satellite provides a complete view of the global ocean every five days.
Argo measurements, on the other hand, provide punctual salinity data sampled at a lower resolution than SMOS every 10 days.
The higher precision provided by the Argo floats, however, complements the SMOS measurements.

I have been awarded the "one lovely blog award" by Anna @ Puppy Fly Boutique and Shannon @ Shannon Sews.
Thank You so much ladies :)
You have both made my day.
Now here is how it works:
I have to share 7 things about myself that you don't know.
hmmm... Now how deep should I go, LOL.
1. I have been married for 6 years, I got married when I was 18! Shocking huh?
2. I am the 2nd oldest out of 5 sisters and 1 brother.
3. I dream of having a big house with a huge wrap around porch with rocking chairs....
4. I love anything chocolate: brownies, cakes, fudge, ice cream, candy...
5. When I am feeling sad/depressed I clean. My house will be sparkling when I am done.
6. My family loved to Missouri, about a year and a half ago. Now I am here all alone without my mom, dad, sisters or brother. Coming from a big family, it is really hard to get used to having no one around. I miss them very much.
7. I do not watch the news because it stresses me out, there are to many bad things going on in this world and I do not want the details.
Ok, that is 7, otherwise I could go on and on.
Now, I get to pass on the love to new bloggers I've found recently, that I'd like to know more about:
These lucky people can put a copy of the One Lovely Blog Award picture on their blog, with a list of 7 things we don't know about them and pass the love on!

When a salad graduates from an afterthought to a showpiece, chances are you're talking Salade Niçoise. Packed with flavor, it's a light but complete meal that also sticks to your ribs. It's perhaps my favorite dish to have on hot days.
Here I take the classic Provençal dish and serve it with grilled vegetables and a basil vinaigrette – all in celebration of summer's exuberant flavors. I'll even recommend you make extra vinaigrette, because it's almost impossible not to dip a crusty slice of bread in it!
On a side note, although my Niçoise is fishless, grilled tuna steak would be a great addition to it… Bon Appétit!
Food & wine pairing: Burgundy, Pinot Noir with Niçoise salad
This salad is one that can surely stand up to a red wine! Try a Pinot Noir from Burgundy, a Sangiovese from Chianti, a Bardolino from Veneto, a Gamay from Beaujolais or even a Rioja Crianza from Rioja. The grilled vegetables and the spunky vinaigrette would pair well with these light reds. In the warm months, make sure to serve your wine slightly chilled: 60°F (16°C) would be ideal.
Niçoise salad with grilled vegetables and basil-mustard vinaigrette
serves 4 to 6
active time: 50 min
For the vinaigrette
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 shallot – skinned and quartered
- 12 large leaves fresh basil
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the grilled vegetables
- 4 baby eggplants (cut in 1/4″ slices lengthwise)
- 1 medium red onion – peeled and cut in 1/2″ slices through the root end so slices stay attached together
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the salad
- 1 large handful baby arugula (3 oz) (85 g) – rinsed and spun dry
- 1 1/2 lbs (680 g) baby red potatoes – unpeeled, boiled until tender and halved
- 8 oz (225 g) haricots verts – stem ends trimmed and left whole
- 2 ripe medium tomatoes – cut in 1/2″ slices
- 4 to 6 hard boiled eggs – peeled and halved
- 1/2 cup Niçoise olives
- 1/3 cup large caper berries – drained
- Step 1: To make the vinaigrette – Place all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and process until the basil is finely chopped and the vinaigrette well blended. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Step 2: To grill the vegetables – Preheat gas grill to high or prepare charcoal grill. Lightly brush the eggplant slices on both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and grill until grill marks appear on all sides. Transfer to a tray and set aside.
- Step 3: For the onions – Place the onion slices in a bowl. Add the vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Toss carefully, taking care not to break the slices apart, and transfer to a perforated stainless steel pan. Grill until charred. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Step 4: To assemble the salad – Spread the baby arugula on a large serving platter. Top with the grilled eggplant, grilled onions, potatoes, beans, tomatoes, eggs, olives and caper berries. Serve with the vinaigrette on the side.

Very refreshing and yummy to look at. Hope to try this. Thank for this recipe.
More Power &
What a gorgeous salad. I love these hearty summer salads with grilled vegetables; I think I'll try this over the weekend! Thanks for the inspiration as always!
Oh man this looks delicious! And your photographs are beautiful! Everything here looks great!
I recently launched my own blog, I'd love for you to check it out and let me know what you think! 🙂 Thanks!
I made this Salade Nicoise! It was divine (as usual, Viviane)!
I love a good nicoise salad, I tend to use salmon being west coast as it's easy to come by.
I always enjoy seeing the different takes on the Niçoise salad, this looks quite refreshing.
I luv grilled vegetables and then including them in a salad is just lovely. A gorgeous salad…and I very much like your ingredient combination for the vinaigrette.
Your photos are fantastic! I love nicoise salad, and this one is no exception. I just purchased a cast-iron grill myself and I've been grilling veggies nonstop. The flavor is so good!
Lovely idea to make the nicoise salad with grilled veggies. The vinaigrette sounds as though it could live another day on many other salads.
The first thing I had when I went to France last year was nicoise salad. It really is one of my favorite meals… eating it outside with a glass of wine. Just thinking about it relaxes me.
Nicoise salad is my favorite thing this summer. I could enjoy it daily with or without fish, and your basil vinaigrette sounds fantastic! Love the grilled vegetables too.
I love the fresh look of this dish. I'm having a dear friend over for lunch on Friday. This looks like the perfect meal to serve. Thanks!
Oh, Mama! This looks so good!
Your Salade Nicoise looks absolutely wondeful. I must try your wonderful recipe. Thanks for sharing.
What a lovely presentation, one of the prettiest Niçoise I have seen.
This is such an elegant salad, and yes it would actually fill me up! A perfect way to let the flavors of summer speak for themselves.
This is beautiful. I love nicoise salad but have always had it plain. I can't wait to try your delicious vinaigrette. Delicious!

Sure has been a while since I posted here at the old O' stuff. I'm still posting reviews over at SFFWorld as most folks probably know. I suspect more people know me through twitter now than through this blog.
For quite a while now, I've debated if I want to keep this blog active, officially close it, or try something new. One of those "new" things I've been pondering is reviewing beer. I've always enjoyed beer, but over the past couple of years I've been really enjoying craft beer. In fact, for my birthday last month, my wife took me on a mini tour of some NJ Micro/Nanobreweries including Twin Elephant Brewing, Conclave Brewing, Kane Brewing, Beach Haus Brewery, and Carton Brewing.
So tomorrow (or later today depending on when you read this) I'll be reviewing beers here at the O' Stuff. Depending on how it feels and what people have to say, I may continue it here or start a whole new blog dedicated just to my beer reviews.
