Every few months, we check in on the latest net neutrality news. Where we last left off, the FCC unveiled their updated plan to repeal the current net neutrality rules; this new plan would allow telecom giants like AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon the ability to speed up, slow down, and block traffic, all while charging extra fees.
Fast forward to this week, when California Governor Jerry Brown signed what is being billed as the strongest net neutrality law in the US.
BREAKING: #NetNeutrality is now law in California. pic.twitter.com/yF5L33UXPF
— EFF (@EFF) October 1, 2018
California bill SB822 restores the net neutrality rules that were enacted under President Barack Obama and then repealed by current FCC chairman Ajit Pai. The bill bans ISPs on both home and mobile connections from favoriting sites and services over others, to prevent things like this from happening:
This is a huge victory for the free and open internet. California is the world's 5th largest economy, so having strong Internet protections there is a major win against throttling and paid prioritization.
Within minutes of this bill being signed into law, the Department of Justice sued the state to block the law from going into effect. Pai's statement:
"I'm pleased the Department of Justice has filed this suit… Not only is California's Internet regulation law illegal, it also hurts consumers. The law prohibits many free-data plans, which allow consumers to stream video, music, and the like exempt from any data limits. They have proven enormously popular in the marketplace, especially among lower-income Americans. But notwithstanding the consumer benefits, this state law bans them."
The practice Pai is referring to is called zero-rating, which may sound better than it is. On the one hand, "YAY FREE STUFF! I get to watch ESPN for free on Verizon!" However, this stifles competition; if you want to start a video company, good luck, when ESPN and Netflix, etc is streamed free and your company isn't. One of the core beliefs of net neutrality is ALL traffic is treated the same.
So what now? It looks like this is going to be a long fight in the courts between states and the federal government. As of 10/4/2018, 36 states have recently proposed or passed resolutions to combat the new FCC rules. Six states, Hawaii, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont, have all passed bills making it mandatory that ISPs confirm with the state that they meet Obama era net neutrality requirements.
If your state isn't on the map, contact your state legislators and ask to pass a bill like California SB822.
It is our belief, as a global data center provider, that ISPs and governments should treat all Internet data equally. Net neutrality is about democracy, and is essential to the future and growth of the global Internet.

What is Gallons of Pork like?
"̶I̶ ̶k̶n̶o̶w̶ ̶a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶r̶ ̶c̶o̶u̶p̶"̶ – RFK to JBL.
Gallons Of Pork blurs the lines between genres with versatile music that's highly addictive, loaded with chemicals, packaged and ready to serve. April 2016 marked the release of their sophomore album 'It Might Be Beans,' a sonic-adventure that ranged from the weird to even more bizarre. The album features songs that incorporate their improvisational & multi-genre instincts into the freshest new sound you could hope for from farm to table, blended with the concept of a never-ending jam told in snippets of musique concrete.
Stumbling into a chance opportunity after a friend booked them headlining a live show at a local house party; Gallons Of Pork quickly legitimized themselves after beginning as a comical concept shared only between four friends. After dominating the show, the rush of support for their brash new sound inspired this group of music students from SUNY Oneonta to continue jamming and hamming it up in the studio and on tour, all in pursuit of bringing the Pork to the people! They released their debut EP 'Meat The Band,' recorded in their school's studios in April 2015.
With intense music-theory backgrounds and an attitude fueled by sarcasm and perversion, Gallons of Pork combine extreme elements of metal, jazz, punk, funk and more into massive instrumental jams and innovative, improvised songs designed to shake the hanging meat right off the hooks. Currently comprised of the ruthless talents & skills of Joe Kaplan (Vocals, Guitar), Mo LaMastro (Guitar), Frank Cicciarello (Bass), Mike Sanbeg (Drums), and producer Peter Grancio (Vocals, Misc.) – Gallons Of Pork are making meaty music for mass consumption.

KFW Mission Report Cold moon AR 12
Mission ObjectivesTravel to the Wraith's Head waystation, south of the Icarthian Triangle, meet High Priest Nomass and then attempt to deal with Drakken.
SummaryDrakken has been dealt with.
The Dymwan were prevented from regaining control of him and making mischief with his considerable powers.
RosterLuke, Harry, Suliman, Gravesong, Khortaz, Dretch, Weech, Piskie, Taigan, Smudge, Alabrion, Puke and myself Kal.
DrakkenAfter a troublesome journey, during which we were attacked by a Shadow Keep patrol, after their leader recognized Alabrion, we arrived at the Wraith's Head Waystation. A short distance from it we were attacked by a group of Dymwan and undead intent on our destruction, they failed.
A scroll recovered from them indicated that they were intending to rebind Drakken and prevent us from interfering. They planned to teleport into the Lokshal family tomb when Drakken was occupied and subdue him and his family, upon the following night.
High Priest Nomass was already at the waystation and we discussed our plans with him. We resolved to travel to the tomb and ensure that the Dymwan were not able to interfere with the Canticle ritual that Drakken was performing.
The journey was hard as both Undead and Psionic constructs guarded the tombs. We gained entry and were confronted by Drakken's undead family, Drakken being deep in his ritual. We attempted to convince them we were here to help, but they attacked anyway. The despairing wail of Drakken caused us much trouble. After subduing them we awaited the arrival of the Dymwan.
The Dymwan struck in force, two waves of mixed Dymwan and undead. At the final count we defeated them, but four had given of their lives to accomplish it. Taigan, Suliman, Luke and Khortaz, your sacrifices brought us victory.
Drakken completed the ritual and he and his family were with us no more.
Reader Mastercraftsman Alberto Cerulian was at the waystation when we arrived. It is one of those that he has been purchasing. Despite his vast personal wealth it seems that he must have some additional backing to have funded such an extensive purchasing spree.
The planned transportation network is nearing completion. It seems it may be ready in time for our Celebration festival upon Eostarre. It may well be the case that the Mastercraftsman chooses to attend the Rednow's Rest at that time. If he does he is likely to be accompanied by Scholar Vilmeus of the Wizards Concillium. Wizards Concillium
As is often the case when one encounters Cerulian, Scholar Vilmeus is also present. In this case he was performing some experiments related to their joint endeavor. There was also a Wizard of the Black College and a Purple Guard present. Taigan asked if he could be a Purple Guard, but was told that only those born within the Concillium can be Purple Guards. The Black Wizard was investigating the nearby Darkwell. We were told that the Concillium were organizing a meeting of many casters of Yellow Magic at the Garden of Elements waystation, in Planting Moon. He suggested our group may be interested in providing an honour guard for any representative the Yellow Guild chooses to send. Scholar Vilmeus also indicated that he believed that the tower in the Valgrind Pass was most likely the Dreaming Spire.
Summer MeadowsNews from the summer meadows indicates that the mists continue to drawback from the area. It seems Monk has been slain and his men initially scattered, however, the towerless are gathering in the area once more. The Kalid and Dymwan are both present in force.
SaldoriansThe news from the Saldorian towers is not good. We have discovered the location of their two towers. They now claim a northern province and southern province. The towers at the heart of these provinces are found in Dagwood and the mountains north of Dragur forest near the Third Waite.
The previous leader of the Orin Rakathan Saldorians, Lon-Lorranan Prelate of the Brotherhood of Purity and Light, has been corrupted (turned into a hordeling). It seems the other factions of the Navanti, especially the Brotherhood of Darkness of Despair have seized power. The previously isolationist policy is no more and we can expect a hostile reception in the field. I am concerned that the fate of Lon-Lorranan may not have been accidental. The experiments being conducted in the Valgrind Pass, by the Brotherhood of Darkness and Despair, could possibly have allowed them to force such a transformation.
MelniboneansBefore we dealt with Drakken we were approached by a Tian of the Melniboneans. He was a Dedicant of Death. He had just come from the conclusion of some business with Drakken. He questioned our intensions regarding Drakken and seemed disappointed that we wished him to be put to rest. It seems he may have had a task for us but judged us unworthy of it. He and his retinue left without incident.

Luckily there is enough of that to goes around nowadays, so between all those different shades of grey I chose the psychedelic folk of Heron Oblivion to be my annual soundtrack for autumn-gazing.

Low – Ones and Sixes
Honestly, I don't know if Ones and Sixes, the title for Low's eleventh album, stands for comparing two things that are the same. However, what I do know is that the slowcore grandmasters Alan Sparhawk and Mimi Parker have been going at it for quite some time now. Since the 90s they have been building up a mesmerizing repertoire that never reached the mainstreams. Low's tranquil orbit indeed isn't for everyone but it's also never too late to get acquainted, though.

This is about how the shift from traditional store-and-analyze to modern real-time-analytics opens many new possibilities for organizations to become agile.
Organizations today are generating huge amounts of data at high velocity in a variety of formats. IOT (Internet of Things) promises to bring hundreds of billions of connected devices to the Internet that will add to this data explosion.
Ability to translate this data to meaning in real-time is of great value to organizations. Its like having a "Live Translator" that is continuously listening to underlying business events, recognizing patterns, performing correlations and translating your data to meaning as things happen.
Streaming Big Data Analytics enables organizations to continuously analyze data to reveal real-time insights and proactively act on them while these insights are still fresh and relevant.
Traditional BI (Business Intelligence) tools and techniques fail to provide the scale and capacity required to handle the increasing volume, velocity and variety of big data. In addition, traditional BI techniques are based on after-the-fact analysis or Batch Analytics, and provide limited support for Live orStreaming Analytics.
Contrasting Persistent Data Analytics with Streaming Analytics
Traditional approaches to analytics focus on capturing data from multiple sources at scheduled intervals, persisting the captured data in a data warehouse and then running queries through the persistent data to detect patterns, correlations and insights for delivery to end users.
On the other hand, Streaming Analytics focus on capturing data in the form of micro-level events from multiple sources in real-time, and running them through a pre-defined set of queries to detect patterns, correlations and insights for immediate delivery to end users.
Reference Architecture for Streaming Analytics
Following is a high-level reference architecture of a Streaming Big Data Analytics Solution using Google Cloud Platform.
The solution makes use of the multiple Big Data Services available under Google Cloud Platform. Following is a list of major components of the reference architecture:
- Cloud Pub/Sub to subscribe and aggregate events generated across multiple systems (sensors) within an organization.
- Cloud Dataflow to process the event stream through a pipeline with pre-defined processing modules that perform event filtering, correlation and pattern detection to derive useful insights.
- Distribution tier for real-time distribution of insights via web based Dashboard and mobile notifications.
- BigQuery to store and analyze massive amount of historical events.
Event Stream Processing (ESP)
Streaming Analytics is based on a technique known as Event Stream Processing. Think of ESP as a relational database upside down. In a relational database, you store data and run queries through it. The query exits after it returns the results. In Event Stream Processing, you store queries and run data through it. Streaming queries do not exit and continue to return results as incremental data arrives in the stream.
Data Windows
In order to process the continuous stream of events and detect patterns, Event Stream Processing platforms provide mechanism to bundle events by time, length, session and multiple other ways. These bundles are referred as Data Windows.
For example:
- A Sliding Time Window might capture events that arrive in past n seconds. Events enter the window as they arrive and exits in n seconds.
- A Sliding Length Window might capture past n number of events. Events enter the window as they arrive and exits as soon as the next n number of events enter the window.
The shift from traditional store-and-analyze to modern real-time-analytics opens many new possibilities for organizations to notice trends and insights as they happen and act on them immediately within a narrow window of opportunity. Organizations are starting to find a lot of value in applying these patterns in many use cases like the following:
- Identifying fraudulent transactions and performing preventive actions as they happen.
- Notifying application owners of possible issues by continuously scanning log entries.
- Creating a lead in your CRM as soon as the engagement of a user on your website crosses a certain threshold.
- Continuous analysis of social media stream to perform sentiment analysis.
The advent of services like Google Cloud Dataflow and Cloud Pub/Sub now enables performing "Event Stream Processing" at high scale and reliability in the cloud. This is a significant technology enabler that will trigger a trend towards real-time analytics.

24/25 May 2016 – SUPERSTUDIO PIÙ, Milan – Stand B02-C01
Promos is participating at the first edition of Mapic Italiawith the latest news relative to the projects in its portfolio: it's going to be a very exciting autumn for the company, with the opening of Scalo Milano in October and the inauguration of the Food Court at Valmontone Outlet in November.24
With its constant attention to emerging trends, diversified research on interesting new goods sectors and its policy of listening to the needs of the end customers, Promos distinguishes itself for a strong innovative spirit that has generated two new projects, each unique in its way.
Filippo Maffioli, CEO of Promos says: "This is a crucial moment, as we begin to harvest the fruits of our labors in the past several years. With Scalo Milano, we want to offer an advanced retail project, absolutely unique for the sector. The reaction of the market confirms that we are moving in the right direction. Innovating is the only way to make the sector grow".
Scalo Milano will offer the general public the best of food, fashion and design, together for the first time in an organic project. In addition to the innovative design district, the first in Europe, and with the inclusion of artistic ventures, created to give the visit to the center a cultural dimension and one of high profile entertainment, recently renamed "You Art Here", the promoters of the project have launched an extraordinary concept with permanent School of High Professional Training, a branch of the Lonati Machina Technical Institute of higher education, with a two-year post-graduate course for store managers, the first edition of which will start in October 2016.
Another important project almost ready for inauguration is the new Food Court at Valmontone Outlet near Rome. It is the first example of a Food Court at an Italian outlet mall. It will occupy an area of 3,000 sq.mt., with 10 businesses, including cafés, restaurants, pizzerias and fast food outlets, with an innovative format capable of satisfying the preferences of every segment of the clientele. The Food Court is part of a broader plan of restyling for the outlet that will concentrate on the three macro areas of property, marketing and trade. In this sector over 10,600 sq.mt. have been moved by Promos, between renewals and new contracts. In particular, agreements have been initialed with 20 new brands of primary importance, including: Liviana Conti, Braccialini, Jeep, O Bag, Sandro Ferrone, Melluso, Diadora, Rebel Queen by Liu Jo, Hangar Eighteen and Delsey Paris. Stroili Oro has also opened its first store in an outlet mall at Valmontone.
Tomaso Maffioli, CEO of Promos says: "As regards Valmontone Outlet, the data reported since the beginning of the year are more than positive: +2% footfall and sales are up by 4.7%. The opening of the new Food Court. we estimate, will help us to sustain and further improve the results relative to visitor, which are already at record levels for the domestic market. In the coming months, important new openings will further enrich the fashion offering with international brand of great appeal for a more and more diversified and demanding clientele".

For Iris Colburn, the president of the Hammer Student Association, the theme of transferal relates to the conversion of three-dimensional objects into works on paper and conversion of forms into grids – both current exhibitions at the Hammer Museum.
The Hammer Student Association, a UCLA student group affiliated with the Hammer Museum, will host this year's "Arts Party: Transferal" on Tuesday, built around projects by UCLA- and Los Angeles-based artists.
"It's about introducing people to contemporary, young artists who are in Los Angeles or at UCLA right now and bringing them into the museum," said Colburn, a third-year art history student.
Colburn said the main theme of the night is "Transferal," and in keeping with that theme, some of the projects are forms of art that attendees make at the event and take with them. Seven workshop spaces form the core of the party and aim to give students an experience close to working in an art lab.
Current students will be an important part of the evening, Colburn said. Theo Triantafyllidis, a Design | Media Arts graduate student, will feature a three-pronged exhibit, using the Oculus Rift Virtual Reality headset to place partygoers in a painting studio, and allowing students to draw designs in the virtual space. They'll also be able to make unusually shaped balloons out of rubber materials.
Third-year fine arts student Julienne Fusello, part of the the Hammer Student Association's events committee, said the group wants to keep the feeling of being in concert with the artists.
Fusello said it's about keeping the artist's practice and sharing it with a large group of people, meaning making a demo or use of the same materials that they use.
Longtime collaborators, architecture graduate student Jia Gu and project director and core faculty in the Urban Humanities Initiative Jonathan Crisman, will bring the framework for a paper model of a "Probable City" in the center of the Hammer courtyard. Participants will collaborate to create a map of an imagined flat city, following procedural rules but creating something new. Since the map is directly below the bridge on the Hammer's second floor, it can be viewed from above.
"(We wanted to) draw on that history … of Los Angeles, and do it in a participatory way," Crisman said.
Other groups will bring other projects, like miniature fingernail art. Musical entertainment will include Iconic Splendor, a band fronted by Nathan Ward, who plays a character obsessed with the Los Angeles County Museum of Art lights. Subtrança, a glitchy, industrial group, will provide the audiovisuals.
Colburn said student educators will give tours of the Hammer Museum's current exhibits that tie into the event's themes. The Hammer currently exhibits the architectural work of Britain's Heatherwick Studio; an exhibit of 20th century rubbings; the grid-based, mathematically styled art of Charles Gaines; and pre-20th century paintings including a Rembrandt, a Titian and a Rubens.
The event ties into those themes but will try to work them in in a collaborative manner, Colburn said.
Second-year art student and member of the Hammer Student Association Oscar Peña said the event is targeted toward students who haven't necessarily been to the Hammer Museum before.
"A lot of people say that they have the Hammer Museum on their UCLA 'Bucket List,' and they never go here," Pena said. "We want to give people a reason to come down."

Thought of the day
The beauty of being open and truthful with our family and friends.
Sharing openly with people without expectations creates a feeling of exuberance fulfilment and gives the soul freedom of expression.
It is a gratifying way to live, which brings more self love into the heart and the entire body.
Sleep peacefully in the world of angels.
To days energy
What an amazing energy that came from the heavens and invaded my entire body with joy swirling while entering the center of each cell of the body. I immediately felt its presence that continued to bring happiness and love within my heart.
As the energy continued to fill my body tears of joy were present, tears of love for the people of the world, kept rolling down. I saw the pain and confusion that the world was in. I felt the gratitude towards the blessing that in this moment I was receiving from the universe. It feels like a huge wave of abundance in the area of compassion towards every human being on the planet. It is like as if their higher selves are being waken up and soon the energy of a greater community is being formed. The old energy and suffering that each one of us has experienced in 2016 has been transformed into this huge energy of pure love and compassion.
How amazing 2017 is and I welcome this moment with open arms and extreme gratitude for giving me this experience of love and greatness.
Normally each month I write down the goals for the coming days. Today I just want to absorb the powerful energy that is available to us to receive.

Spring wishes
Magic forest
Enter the portal to the world of magic, enchantment, where stories are created from the imagination of our most intimate visions and thoughts.
Good morning
A bran new day
A bran new day,
A bran new world,
A beautiful Divine light to encourage my heart to go on a new path, by opening my entire Spirit to new possibilities of experiencing the world around me. Such as natures sounds that are creating different notes.
Imagine a roaring motorcycle, a faint electrical hum in the background. A plastic white bag blown by the wind. The trees, the flowers, the birds, what else can I hear that is adding to the symphony that I am creating this very moment.There is piercing silence, then a whistle of another bird a long way away. I keep walking on the small gravel stones, as the shoes are playing a D flat note. Somewhere a dog is barking as I listen attentively to the different notes that the sounds are coagulating, I notice that they become part of an orchestrated symphony, melodically tuned. .Music is everywhere playing inside all the sounds, which each day we hear. All I need do is allow my entire Spirit to become part of the creation of all that is. What a wonderful day to be alive.
Heart chakra
Did you know you can affect your finances, business, love life and more with yoga poses? You can! As long as you do them consistently enough. You see, your energy centers (chakras) are located at specific areas in your body and they're related to different aspects of your life (money, sexuality, love, etc). This means you can actually use your body to positively shift certain areas of your life. For instance, first chakra poses can affect your finances, second chakra poses can affect your intimate life, third chakra poses can affect your personal power and confidence, and so on.
As a sort of intro to summer weather, I've filmed a short series of easy yoga poses and corresponding movements that relate to each chakra and I'm going to share them sequentially with you from the ground to the crown. If you follow this series, by the end of it, you'll be able to do a short morning ritual of seven movements that will balance all your chakras. It's a great way to start your day!
In this post, I'm focusing on the root chakra. It governs your tailbone, feet and legs and it's related to the color red. Red is a dense, slow vibrating color so this is your deepest, most earth bound chakra. It's all about your sense of survival and security and pertains to everything physical in your world. It's connected to your personal boundaries as well as your health, work and money. It's also related to your home and your "tribe" (that is, your extended family).
One with God.
I cried while this message was dictated from the Spirit world.
Every one of you is One with God, incorporated into or enlaced within the Source that is ALL that exists because that is how and where you were created, and separation from that Source is impossible, inconceivable, and utterly out of the question. You are always and eternally One with God. There is nowhere and nothing else. You have just chosen to be unaware of your true nature in order to play games of separation, and the persuasive forcefulness of your state of unawareness has allowed you to invent and play the most horrendous and terrifying games, that have caused you intense and totally unnecessary suffering.
It is time to awaken from the unreality of that state of unawareness and to claim your divine inheritance. It enthusiastically awaits your decision to release your fearful hold on the illusion so that you may once again experience the deep and, in your present state of unawareness, utterly inconceivable joy of Oneness with your ever-loving Source.

Full moon in Virgo
This full moon in Virgo.
While looking at the vibration of this full moon I found an article written a long time ago by one of my clients in therapy. It faces a situation appropriate to this period of the moon in Virgo. This moon is all about understanding and expressing our own feelings on the most profound of levels.. Take a closer look at the events of these next few days that could lead at an intense healing of any unfinished situations from the past or present. The time for honesty and examining the power of this particular full moon; that is ready to assist us into closures, or new beginnings, that other full moons were less intense in this direction of unstitching delicate situations.
I would like to share the client's article with you to show, that you are not alone, when situations of the heart are concerned and feelings, that is what the article is about.
Here we go.
It was a death sentence.
After twenty five years of sharing a life with a man that had nothing in common with her, the situation continued to be still open. Closure was a long way away. Why is it that some relationships go on and on without ending?
Her heart was starting to die; it was years now that each day the heart was dying a little more. What to do to end the relationship was the question. Her inner strength had long past the recovery point. The nervous system had been shot to pieces. Each day she prayed for an answer, each day they discussed the potentiality of letting go, and how each one could find another way of having happiness and bliss in their lives. He was so determined to keep her a prisoner of his physical, emotional and physiological existence.
She could see that the soul had the strength to override the situation, therefore what was missing? To her, the two people's energies were meant to mach in the decision of letting go. When one person lets go and the other still continues to think or fantasize about the person that left; this creates discrepancies and interference in the aura and psyche of the other person. We are energy therefore feel what is going on even while apart. In the world there can exist many situations similar to this one. Where suffering for lack of freedom on all levels of the persons bodies are affected. The government has introduced a divorce system, yet after the divorce the freedom can still be missing. Sometimes it is due to settlement, or the children involved or other factors. Becoming good friends or letting go completely only sometimes becomes the case of a good divorce or separation. When the two people are in accord with each other about letting go then the opportunity of becoming best of friends is available and freedom of the souls is reached.
Self Love
What does Alessandra think of Self Love?
The experience is certainly different from love for others. The energy is wider and it incorporates a greater mass of energy. It is a strange feeling if not felt before. The mind needs to be focused on the entire self without even one thought about others. It requires more self control and determination without guilt, or thinking that it is selfish. The experience becomes rather interesting. It is fairly similar to a paddock full of colourful wild flowers growing everywhere.
This energy only becomes fully developed after having experienced all the different ways that loving others more than the self, results in disappointments and un-fulfilment.
The loving of the self 100% becomes reality after a period of practicing loving the self each day more and more, by watching the feelings that rise up inside the body as the person is wanting to become a professional lover of the Self.
It has taken many centuries for a woman to get the courage to put herself first, while also being kind, caring and loving to others.
This is only my view point about Self Love from the experiences that I have been living since 1985 when I first heard about that love comes from within and I need to learn to love myself first and foremost, before I can truly love my family and other. "The amount of love you have for yourself you will have also for others." They said to me at a course, and I replied "I want my husband to love me not me love me." How wrong was I, so the tedious job of braking down the barriers started, and here I am now after all those years still improving and polishing my love for the Self? Just like we do with a diamond. We keep polishing the ruff stone until it shines and bedazzles us. God bless.
.Thought of the day
It started in January 2016 the regrouping, of all the past experiences at a deeper understanding. My question during the regrouping has been, "Why so much suffering and pain, while the situation is being experienced?"
The findings have been interesting, as to what the lessons, and learning's were. I continued looking, accepting and regrouping. It was fun to see my life under this new prospective. It was clear that when the mind is involved in judgment it can fog the reality of the "Why."
Many experiences have been similar, only now, we were going deeper and deeper each time round. Such vision gave me the understanding that life is a continuum. Happiness took over my body. Finally I am understanding the deep meaning, of the "Why", the experiences were repeating themselves, during this lifetime.
By this regrouping I also came to understand the truth of the human race. Why we look the way we look and why the many emotions and characteristics that exist.
Achieving Oneness is a positive reality. We still have some personal clearing to do, before attempting to manifest a global massive change. The change is happening each day on a small scale. The change is visible and it will continue to happen until the complete desire of obtaining Oneness within ourselves and Globally is complete. The process continues to exist, on all dimensions connected to the grand plan of the Universal existence. Our state of consciousness will determine how quickly the change will happen.
Alessandra Hart
Self Love
Thought of the day
Self love
For a long time many people have spoken about self love, and how important it is to love thyself.
I understand the meaning of what they are saying, because; this life time my major lesson is self love. When regrouping the situation of self love; I noticed how many times the opportunity was presented, of choosing to love myself by taking the correct action. Instead, I looked for guidance from others; I wanted their permission and consent towards doing what I wanted to do in that moment. For years this kind of behaviour continued to be part of my life.
"Others were more worthy of love than me."
When I became unhappy by the decision made by others, the blame factor came into play. What a vicious circle blaming others is. Learning to take full responsibility for my own decision towards the desires, of the heart and soul, is the correct choice.
This habit became a "NEED" of wanting acceptance by others.
I found myself only able to judge, what was right for me, as being unworthy of my love. The game went on for years and years. It was a game of separation, between my soul and the opinion of others towards me.
Why was it so important that others accepted me?
I found it hard to appreciate all the wonderful qualities that God had bestowed upon my essence! I was given all that I needed towards this task of learning Self Love, of learning Self value and self esteem! Does the unseen world enjoy seeing us struggle? I continued to ask myself. "NO" was the answer.
"The experiences and opportunities that are presented connected to the major learning lesson, are only there to make you stronger. Each time you choose the other side of the coin, the pain related to the word "Failure" points towards remembering your own truth of life. Therefore you have a wider prospective of the two sides of the coin. A wider prospective towards how life really is, how it presents itself, to each in a personal way related to the inner truth." The universe responded.
By looking at life this way, I can see that life becomes a magical adventure towards achievement of my own truth, rather than the other person's truth. This is the shift that is necessary for me to make and I was very happy with this insight. I also noticed by the previous experienced that Self love goes deeper and deeper until it reaches completion. At this point of completion, the giving to others and to the Self becomes total. Eventually the lesson is finished, than the focus can be on living life on a wider state of consciousness, where no more "needing" or obstacles are present.
I find talking about Self love so difficult to do.
Alessandra Hart
Divine Love
I am the love that so deeply was given the opportunity to experience. The love that takes a person to the depths of the ocean with no return to the surface, of how life was before. A love that becomes understanding, reflective, giving and receiving on a deep level. From this love a love of compassion develops. The vessel, now overflows, therefore more love must be given to others, in the event to keep the body from burning from the overflow of love that is inside.
Even after the partner that was the catalyst in creating and bringing to life such love leaves, the LOVE remains intact, now mingled with the pain of separation which gives a start to a newer experience called Divine LOVE, of an even deeper level. This time the love includes every creation that is in existence. We are here to be part of the all.
Angels in this world and in the unseen world are super beings that have raised their vibration from human to the highest possible realm. While on this planet the lessons and qualities that were presented before them; they peacefully and without resistance achieved such purpose and mission. Now such angels, are here helping each one of us with our own experiences in the same way.
I remember when doing Spiritual training to become a canceller in how to introduce people to their own angels, I learnt everything there was to learn about my own angels, I became aware how similar we were. Everything that I needed to accomplish, learn, overcome, eliminate they themselves had mastered such qualities while on this earth.
I felt happy to know how blessed I was in having such a precious team of angels at my disposal, willing to help in any way possible. They backed me and still are backing me each day, by lighting the way of each step I need to take in order to achieve the full purpose of this life.
With so much reverence, love and gratefulness I thank my angels for the most amazing miraculous, blissful life that they helped me live and enjoy.

Very often the most memorable, and certainly the most dramatic, documentaries about filmmaking are the ones where everything seems to be going very wrong, the pressure seems to be getting very intense, and people seem to be on the verge of snapping.
Or do indeed sometimes snap.
Lost in La Mancha is perhaps the best example of how very, very badly filmmaking can go, despite the best intentions; Hearts of Darkness probably set the standard earlier, and established the paradigm. Both are essential stuff, if you can take them.
And perhaps we'll soon have a third "classic" to add to that list. This trailer for Despite the Gods goes behind the scenes of Jennifer Chambers Lynch's Hisss, and it looks to be quite a crazy place back there.
If you can't see the resemblance, or you don't know her from her other work, I should point out that, yes, Ms. Chambers Lynch is David's daughter. Her debut film, Boxing Helena, was a notorious flop and would have made for a great documentary itself, particularly in respect of the lawsuits that arose when Kim Basinger backed down on a verbal agreement to star.
Hisss did play in UK cinemas a couple of years back, but without subtitles and on a very small number of screens. I don't want to spoil the documentary, but I understand that Lynch didn't see the film all the way through the edit, and has subsequently disowned the finished product. I keenly await an English-friendly release so I can check it out for myself.
But even more keenly than that, I'm afraid to say, I can't wait to see Despite the Gods… though I do already feel Rubber Necker's Remorse just thinking about it
Thanks to Quiet Earth for the embed.

|The Center of Attention Search Engine
|Click here to go back to all exhibitions
and Press Reception: Sunday 23 March 2003, 6 pm to 8 pm
The results of the search engine were exhibited at Spanganga Gallery, Fridays to Sundays, 6 to 10 pm until the 23 April 2003
This exhibition was made possible thanks to Abner Nolan and to Spanganga Gallery in San Francisco.
The Center of Attention is a non-commercial independent contemporary art gallery based in London, UK. In the past year, it has shown a mix of established artists such as Sylvie Fleury, Jenny Holzer, Ken Friedman (Fluxus West) and Genesis P-Orridge, as well as many young emerging European and American artists.
Through its programme of exhibitions such as 'Email Art', 'The Centre of Attention Art Prize', its annual Magazine or its film screening events, the Center constantly tries to redefine what makes a contemporary art gallery.
From 23 March to 30 March 2003, the Center moves to the land of Google and Yahoo! to present: "the Center of Attention Search Engine" at Spanganga Gallery, 3376 19th Street, San Francisco, CA.
Some people have already described the 'Center of Attention Search Engine' as the contemporary art bastard child of 'Antiques Roadshow' and 'American Idol'.
To the more highbrow cultural observer however, this forthcoming San Francisco exhibition will underline the contemporary art gallery as a non space-specific organisation and address the activity of a gallery as a search engine, namely through its selection and curatorial process.
No work will be transported over from Europe and the exhibition launches with an empty gallery space. During gallery hours, starting the 23rd March, an open submission operation will be in process, with artists bringing in work to be discussed with them before being accepted or rejected for the show. Outside gallery hours, the Center's curators will scour the city, its artists' studios, art colleges, talking to people in cafes and cultural spaces with a view to finding the most interesting work.
The exhibition is at once a performance as well as a survey of work to be found in the City: with the unique quality that visitors see the making of the exhibition; they can come back daily to check the progress; they can follow the curator's visits; they can make suggestions.
The end of the show will paradoxically mark the completion of the process i.e. the achievement of a satisfying exhibition to present to the public.
The completed show although seen by few in reality will be documented for publication on the website, while overseas observers can follow the day-to-day progress on the Blogger.

Old PPV's: Which Ones Should Be Brought Back? - Episode 38
Nov 27th, 2018 by apronworkpodcast
In this week's episode, due to the recent NXT TakeOver: WarGames II and WWE's Starrcade House Show, we decided to take a look at some of the old PPV concepts and names that should be brought back. As we welcome back Peach after another few weeks off, we look into some of the former WCW, ECW and WWE/F PPV's that should be brought back in some capacity. Between WCW's Bash at the Beach and World War 3, WWE's King of the Ring and Cyber Sunday and ECW's Heat Wave and Guilty as Charged, we try to take a look at a way to bring back some of the concepts and names that most fans have been wanting to see make a return.

Last Sunday I took a trip to Winchester, the Roman capital of Britain. I'd booked in to four lectures as part of the BBC History Weekend, as part of their 'History Extra' programme. I had a fantastic time, and really enjoyed the historical overload! The venue was stunning – the Great Hall, with the Round Table and giant statue of Queen Victoria, was an amazing place to hold lectures.
I went to a range of lectures, covering the following topics:
- Misunderstood Matriarchs?: the Role and Reputation of Royal Mothers from Ancient Rome to Restoration England ~ Carey Fleiner and Ellie Woodacre
- Houses of Power: The Places that shaped the Tudor World ~ Simon Thurley
- Elizabeth's Women: The Hidden Story of the Virgin Queen ~ Tracy Borman
- Richard III: loyal brother or murderous tyrant? ~ Chris Skidmore
For someone who finds the role of women in history fascinating, these were perfect. I'm also a big Tudor fan (and not just because they're the only dynasty people know about, other than the Victorians!) I think my favourite lecture of the day was the one given by Tracy Borman, and I'm really excited to read her book soon!
So…what did I learn?
- Sources often portrayed women negatively as a way to attack the men around them. An inversion of the social order; i.e. women taking control, was an easy way to intimidate the men in charge, and so chroniclers focused on that. This ultimately has often given women a negative reputation throughout history.
- Elizabeth I hated dining in public, yet this was part of a courtly ritual. To combat this, she would be served the first course, and then retreat to her withdrawing room. While she ate her dinner, the meal continued to be served to an empty table, while the courtiers watched the charade. Once Elizabeth had finished dining, she would return, and continue to host the courtiers.
- While Henry VIII may have revolutionised the way in which his palaces worked, this architectural design became a blueprint used until the early 18th In this way, the architecture of English Palaces was a like a 'straight jacket' to the monarchy; they couldn't progress like the European monarchs until they changed their palaces.
- Blanche Parry, one of Elizabeth's closest ladies, was in her service for 57 years. She didn't marry, didn't have children, and by the end of her service, was blind, but continued to serve.
- Despite being in a patriarchal society, all of Elizabeth's main rivals were women. These included Katherine Grey, Mary Grey, and Mary, Queen of Scots (MQS). Although the problems with MQS continued for 20 years, her execution is thought to have provoked Francis I into launching the Spanish Armada. This gives Elizabeth a great success, and forms the beginning of the 'Elizabethan cult'.
- Richard III has been painted throughout history as a murderous tyrant, in particular through Shakespeare's writing and the Tudor chroniclers, as it was all for propaganda. When assessing his reign, and his person, it is important to consider his early years, and his support for Edward IV as a brother.
I've just picked out a few highlights from the day – there is definitely too much to give you a full overview (plus you'd probably get bored!). I thoroughly enjoyed getting back into the swing of education – even if it was just for a day!
I want to leave you with one final thought. Simon Thurley shared this story while talking about how, sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction. He'd been walking round the Tower of London, and overheard one of the Yeoman Warders talking to a group of visitors.
"In this very tower, Queen Elizabeth was incarcerated by her sister for two years."
The following response was also heard…
"Oh, I never did like that Princess Margaret."
What are some of your favourite facts from history?

2016 ASILE Conference
ASILE is the Australian Society of Indonesian Language Educators
ASILE began its existence at a conference in Adelaide on Anzac weekend 1994. The coming together of Indonesian language educators from all levels was based on a concept put forward by Ibu Firdaus, lecturer in Indonesian at Flinders University. It was proposed that a new peak professional body be formed which should further the interests and report on the research and practice of Indonesian language teachers from early childhood through to tertiary level.
This was followed by a second national conference at Monash University in July 1995 organised by Barbara Hatley and Harry Aveling. At the Monash event, it was resolved to constitute the new association with the name of Australian Society of Indonesian Language Educators (ASILE). A committee was elected, comprising two members of the formative group at Flinders University, the two convenors of the Monash conference and two representatives of the Sydney group which planned to host the third conference in 1996. After the successes of previous conferences, ASILE has continued to be organised on a rotating voluntary basis with no permanent board or secretariat. ASILE Conferences were held in Brisbane in 1998, Canberra 1999, Melbourne 2001, Adelaide 2003, Perth 2005, Sunshine Coast 2007, Sydney in 2009, Canberra in 2010, Salatiga in 2012 and Denpasar in 2014. In 2016, Adelaide, again, welcomes participants to the 14th ASILE Conference.
INTAN is collaborating with Flinders University and the Australian-Indonesian Association of South Australia to present the ASILE 2016 Conference. In the spirit of ASILE, this collaboration brings together peak bodies of the schooling and tertiary sectors in South Australia in conjunction with the local Indonesian community.
Each organisation will share its expertise, professionalism as well as local and national contacts to develop, plan and deliver a stimulating, professional, and culturally rich program.
The theme for ASILE conference 2016 is INDOVASI: menuju paradigma baru (moving into a new paradigm) in Indonesian language education.
This theme has been chosen specifically to provoke our thinking about the future of Indonesian language teaching and research. As a field, we find ourselves in challenging times. On the one hand, there is much rhetoric about the importance of our relationship with Indonesia and the value of learning Indonesian, and yet on the other, we have fewer programs and students studying the language than in previous years. We are in rapidly changing times, with shifting political and economic forces, increased mobility, expanding communication technologies and networks, and demands on us to be innovative and agile.
It is within this context that we ask conference participants to consider the future of Indonesian language and culture teaching and research. We ask:
- What do we imagine the future will look like?
- What will it mean for future generations to learn Indonesian?
- How might we respond to these challenges and opportunities?
- What will we need to realise our vision?
We welcome all participants interested in these questions and more to attend the conference and contribute to the dialogue about the future of our field, and to shape a paradigma baru together.
For more information about the 2016 ASILE Conference, visit the 2016 ASILE Conference website.

New Consumer Goods research report from Euromonitor International is now available from Fast Market Research

These developments led to the strong growth of the local industry and tobacco consumption. In addition, due to this development, from the 1960s onwards Denmark became the world pipe-making centre, where the making of...

Not that long ago, the ability of an algorithm to recognize your face may have seemed like sci-fi fodder. Today, it's a reality for social media giants like Facebook to digital camera auto-focus. The term facial recognition encompasses a broad spectrum of technology, from face detection, which as the name suggests, detects a face and allows a camera to focus on it (auto-focus) to actual identification.
How it Works
Facial recognition is the technology driving the auto-focus of a digital camera, as it recognizes a face and suggests a focus. However, the ability to analyze the captured image for classification or identification has expanded the application of the technology. At the next level, facial recognition technology can classify a face into a broader group, for example, a female. This is applied by marketers for targeting specific groups of people to see an ad.
Now, facial recognition can identify an individual. Using biometric identification, the same process used for fingerprint matching or voice recognition, a system imputes data images, analyzes them, and tries to match the new entry to an existing entry in the database. Facial recognition takes it a step further and detects, creates a "face print," and then can verify or identify, according to an article in The Conversation.
Facial recognition technology is often driven by computer software and can be applied to an existing software system – like a security camera system in a mall, for example. Because people do not always present themselves with the goal of having a face print taken, the software also has to re-size and adjust the captured image before it can generate the print. And, accessories like large sunglasses or hats, or hairstyle changes could make this more challenging.
How it's Applied
Facial recognition technology is applied in more ways than catching shoplifters at the mall or helping a digital camera capture the perfect portrait. In fact, the technology is used in both the private and public sector, assisting the FBI through its facial-recognition database, which has an estimated one-third of Americans profiled, according to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. The FBI database's estimated 85% accuracy pales in comparison to private sector giants Google and Facebook, estimated at 99.63% and 97.25% respectively, reports The Washington Post. (To be fair, the photos uploaded to Google and Facebook are thought to be easier to work with). Through Google's FaceNet and Facebook's DeepFace, users are given suggestions for people to tag when a new photograph is uploaded. To do this, the algorithm must create a profile, or face print, of a user to enable the suggestion.
Apple's new Animoji is another new use for facial recognition technology.
Security has also adopted facial recognition technology. The newly launched iPhone X allows users to unlock their phone via a face print; in China, a user's face can also act as a pass to security offices and authorize ATM withdrawals. This year, the LPGA debuted the technology at their ANA Inspiration tournament in March, scanning spectators and media at the front entrance, and granting media professionals access to the media center through the match. Airports have also incorporated this technology to support screening.
This technology comes with a bevy of concerns, with privacy at the forefront. The slew of available data could eliminate any possibility of privacy, as people could be identified anywhere, and images can be captured remotely and subtly. As the technology improves, it may be easier for this kind of unwanted identification at a micro level as well. For example, a new app allows a user to use a photo to find a person's social media accounts – which might be handy for connecting with new friends, but concerning if the attention is unwanted. A recent study intended to be published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology curated thousands of photos from an online dating site and mapped the data into a model intended to predict sexual orientation. This raises serious privacy concerns for a user who does not want his or her sexual orientation disclosed.
Consent, of course, goes hand and hand with privacy. When Facebook launched its technology, critics believed it should have required explicit consent through an opt-in, as opposed to auto-opting in and giving users the option to opt-out. Stores that feature security cameras often post such a disclaimer so people are aware, but posting a similar disclaimer if the technology was applied to the street wouldn't be as easy.
As with any evolving landscape, controlling and regulatory this frontier is a challenge. Some have even raised concerns about potential privacy issues of well-intentioned approaches, like Amber Alerts. Police often include a photograph of the missing child when the issue an alert; however, without oversight, there is no control on whether or not the photo is recorded in a facial recognition system. Staying current on an evolving landscape is difficult, and Congress last addressed consumer privacy legislation in 2009. In both Illinois and Texas, people must give informed consent before technology can identify them.
While facial recognition technology brings security opportunities, such as eliminating long security lines and offering the ability to reliably spot "bad guys," the potential for bias and prejudice still remains. Racial profiling could remain an issue, and governments could use the technology to suspend protestors. And even if the intention is good, the algorithms themselves could have higher identification rates of a specific gender or race, inherently introducing bias in legal or security systems. For example, research from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers indicates that facial-recognition systems disproportionately misidentify African Americans, which means innocent civilians may be flagged as suspects in crimes when facial recognition technology is applied through surveillance cameras and software.
Looking Ahead
Innovation in facial recognition technology doesn't appear to be stopping anytime soon. A professor of computer simulation, Lyndon Smith, from the University of the West of England is developing a system that may replace train tickets, using scans to recognize facial features and validate the users. It could, he believes, replace the PIN system in banks as well. Marketing is another key arena likely to be impacted by this technology. While Microsoft has already developed a billboard that can adjust to show to specific demographics, eventually a shopper's face could act as their loyalty card, bringing with it historical shopping data like preferences and purchase history, and allowing marketers and retailers to fully customize the advertisements they encounter. Face it: this technology is here to stay.
