About the Humble Kaffir Lime

Known botanically as Citrus hystrix, the kaffir lime is of the Rutaceae subgenus, which contains the citrus family. Fruit from this species are known for their intensely aromatic leaves and rind and inedible fruit. Citronellol and limonene are the primary volatile oils responsible for the plant’s aroma and many beneficial properties. The kaffir lime tree is native to southeast Asia. They grow to a height of 3 to 6 metres given the right conditions but thrive in pots as well. Kaffir lime leaves are evergreen, double lobed and can flower at any time of the year when properly cared for. The flowers are small, white and self-fertilising and they tend to grow in clusters. The kaffir lime fruit is about the size of common limes or slightly smaller and it tastes extremely bitter and aromatic. They are not recommended for fresh eating but the fresh leaves, rind and juice are put to use culinarily to season curries, stir-fries and soups, medicinally to treat coughs or digestive issues, and cosmetically for hair and skin health.

The Cardassian Union, sometimes referred to as the Cardassian Empire, has a long, rich history. The Cardassians were originally an empire driven by peaceful and spiritual knowledge. When an extreme resource depression forced the Cardassian people into a more militaristic power the tides of political power changed on Cardassia Prime in an effort to gather off world resources in the name of self preservation. Since that time the Cardassians have strived to expand in an effort to increase their storage of raw materials and economic wealth.

They have more recently been seen as a resource poor, opportunistic military force, but have made many large gains after the end of the Dominion War. That all changed with the Cardassian-Romulan War and Cardassian Advance of 2388 where Cardassia has stretched beyond its borders to demonstrate its strength.

The history of the Cardassian Union tends to consist of extremes, once a peaceful and spiritual people, their planets poor resources proved unable to support their expanding population and starvation and disease became rampant. Millions of deaths resulted, leading to a general breakdown in the government. The military forces of the planet staged a takeover and launched several wars against their neighbors in order to secure new resources. Although further millions were lost in these wars, the military government did succeed in stabilizing the situation on Cardassia. The Cardassian Union itself was formed under an agreement between Central Command and the Obsidian Order to share power.

The capital city of Cardassia Prime.

In 2346 the Cardassians invaded Setlik III, believing it to be a base to be used in an invasion of their own territory by the United Federation of Planets and a prolonged period of tension further heightened by hostilities resulted. In 2355 the Federation dispatched a Constellation Class starship in an attempt to make peace, but the Cardassians rejected the offer and forced the ship to flee. Hostilities officially ended in 2367, although the Cardassians remained less than friendly.

Dominion War

In 2372 a civilian uprising deposed the military government. Suspecting Dominion involvement in the coup, the Klingons launched an invasion of Cardassian space and eventually Cardassia Prime, the Cardassian homeworld. The Federation opposed this action and was successful in forcing the Klingons to halt their advance towards Cardassia Prime. Although this destroyed the Federation-Klingon alliance and resulted in a short period of hostilities between those two powers after the Klingon Empire withdrew from the Khitomer Accords. The Federation shipped considerable aid to the devastated Cardassian government.

Humiliated by having to rely on charity from a former enemy after a relatively quick and easy defeat at the hands of the Klingon Empire, Gul Dukat led a Dominion takeover of the Cardassian Union and was installed as ruler of the region in 2373 and promoted to legate. The Dominion were quick to upgrade the Cardassian fleet and introduce more advanced technologies into their ship building techniques. Cardassian forces had subsequently fought along side the Jem'Hadar in the Dominion War with their leader, Legate Damar, who took power after Legate Dukat was presumed dead. However, on stardate 52412.8, that all changed; angered by the Dominion's alliance with the Breen and the loss of over 7 million troops, Damar led a Cardassian fleet comprised of elements of the 1st, 3rd, and 9th Orders. They attacked and destroyed the Dominion Cloning Facility on Rondak III. In doing so, Damar had called on all Cardassians to rebel against the Dominion. During the final battle for Cardassia Prime the Dominion seemed to have the Federation-Romulan-Klingon Alliance outnumbered. However once word of the Dominion destroying Lakarian City on Cardassia Prime reached the Cardassian troops that were within the Dominion fleet, all the Cardassian vessels turned on the Dominion and Breen vessels. The Alliance wasted no time in joining the Cardassians and thus the Dominion War ended with a Alliance victory.

The Cardassian Union as a whole also accepted it as a victory for them, but it was time to rebuild. The Cardassians started to pick back up the pieces of their highly unstable empire and much sooner then expected everything was back in order, but it would take time to rebuild many things such as the Cardassian fleet. With help from the Federation the Cardassians were able to rebuild many of their major cities on Cardassia Prime as well as begin a kick-start for their industrial and economic sectors for the coming years.

A fleet of Cardassian ships after the reformation of the Central Command following the Dominion War.

By 2380 the Cardassian Central Command had been rebuilt mostly to its former self. While the fleet still lacked the raw power to compete with the Federation, Klingons or Romulans, the Cardassians could at least defend themselves. There were also intelligence reports shared with the Federation and Klingon Empire by the Romulan Tal'Shiar indicating the possible return of the Obsidian Order in the near future. By 2382 the Cardassian government was fully reformed with the Detapa Council having moderating control over the Central Command and the Intelligence Bureau at full operating status.

In 2382, The Detapa Council formally requested that all Federation and allied vessels depart from Cardassian space so that they could begin supporting themselves as much as possible. The industrial sector of the Cardassian people was jump started by the need to rebuild their fleet and within three years much of the original fleet was reestablished. However, the Cardassians also learned some ship building and technological lessons from their former Dominion allies and were able to successfully upgrade the newly constructed vessels with upgraded or totally new systems with a flair of Cardassian engineering. While still not up to par with their Federation, Klingon or Romulan counterparts, the Central Command still managed to retain it's usual tactical style of obtaining numbers and tactics over actual individual power. While not openly pressing the other empires, the Cardassians did begin to stand their ground as early as 2385 in order to establish themselves again as a major galactic power. With the help of the Intelligence Bureau, the Cardassian Union was beginning to obtain much of it's former power, perhaps even surpassing it by 2385 by continuing to roll out the technological upgrades learned during their membership of the Dominion.

The Order of 12

Main article: Order of 12

In early 2386, the Gavarian Corridor was suddenly rocked with the news that several Federation installations had been attacked, leaving a number of Starfleet personnel and Flag Officers dead. Shortly thereafter, a group calling themselves the Order of 12 took credit for the activity, and declared their intentions to claim the corridor on behalf of the Union, preventing both the Romulan Empire and the Federation from expanding into it. While the Federation attempted to mediate, the Empire took an opposite action, attempting to claim as much of the corridor as it could.

The conflict continued over into 2387, with damage and death extending deep into both sides. The efforts of Task Force 47 eventually led to the Gavarian Armistice Agreement, which brought the end to hostilities in the corridor, allowing the three powers to peacefully explore and expand into the corridor. The Order of 12 did not appreciate this. Though their physical efforts had failed, the Order managed to inspire a new surge of patriotism within the Union.

This patriotism prompted the Union to rebuild their armada more quickly. On Stardate 65122.62, just a few months following the signing of the Armistice, Cardassia threw the treaty aside, beginning the Cardassian-Romulan War by attacking a Romulan envoy departing the Quillian system. As the Union and Empire waged war, Task Force 47 was withdrawn from the Corridor, and its assets dissolved into Task Forces 72 and 93.

A Strong Union

Cardassia did not settle with a renewed conflict with the Romulans. On October 10, 2388, the Union reached inside Breen space, swiftly retaking Dozaria and Portas V, systems that were gifted to the Breen by the Dominion during the Dominion War. Sentek and Garzel few shortly thereafter. A week later, the Breen Militia sent several ships in an attempt to retake the Dozaria System, only to be completely decimated by the Fifth Order. The next day, the Fifth Order advanced to claim two more systems. These systems were quickly fortified, and Cardassia continues to amass troops and starships. What their next move is, no one knows.

Structure of the Union

The Cardassian Union is essentially broken into a trifecta of responsibility and power. These three organizations are primarily tasked with separate duties, however are subsequently tasked with integrating a checks and balances system with one another to ensure no single body becomes overtly powerful. The organizations are the Detapa Council, the Central Command and the Ministry of Justice. Formerly the Obsidian Order, the ruthless intelligence gathering organization, was one of these three organizations before it's essential destruction at the hands of the Dominion and then dissolvement. In early Cardassian history the Central Command and Obsidian Order overtook command quickly and buried the Detapa Council away from power, but after the end of the Dominion War the Cardassian government was restructured with the Detapa Council aligned with the most political power.

Detapa Council

The Detapa Council, headed by the Castellan, the Cardassian Head of State, is the civilian governing body on Cardassia Prime that is tasked with all the political power of the Union. The Detapa Council represents the Cardassian people and their wishes. As elected officials they coordinate efforts with the legate's of the Central Command to ensure national security, but keep the interests of the general populace at the forefront of policy making decisions.

While the three organizations are supposed to be equally as powerful through the checks and balances system, in effect the Detapa Council holds all the political legislative, executive and, at most times, judicial power on Cardassia. However as they are not the military force and are only an elected civilian body they cannot exercise military might. With a good working relationship with the Central Command, based primarily on internal Cardassian pride, the Detapa Council is a supportive leadership group for the Cardassian people.

Central Command

The Central Command is the main military operating force of the Cardassian Union. Operating thousands of vessels across Cardassian space the Central Command is tasked with, but not limited to, overseeing the protection of the Cardassian people, the security of it's boarders, national security of the Cardassian Union, exploration of unknown space, first contact with new races and civilizations, shipping and handling of cargo within the Cardassian Union, and protection of civilian freighters within Cardassian civilian owned companies.

After the end of the Dominion War the Central Command coordinated efforts with the civilian government to begin ship rebuilding efforts. Research and development in the Central Command began to backwards engineer and explore some of the Dominion technologies they shared with their allies during the war. Improvements in weapon power, shield strength, communications, transporters, life support systems and many other ship-born systems came from this technological revolution. On top of those enhancements, the Central Command also began exploring the possibility of creating more diverse ship classes to introduce into their fleet. With only operating a select few classes for efficiency, lessons learned from the war showed that they needed more smaller, maneuverable classes as well as larger, heavily armed warships. As a direct result many new starship classes began to hit the construction phase as early as 2380.

The Cardassian Intelligence Bureau, the more tame replacement for the Obsidian Order, works directly with both the Detapa Council and Central Command as a joint military-civilian agency. Many officers of the Cardassian Fifth Order are dedicated to intelligence endeavors. Because of the joint nature of the Bureau, the civilian operatives cannot operate their own independent military fleet and must use their military counterparts for that.

Ministry of Justice

The Ministry of Justice is the central legal structure of the Cardassian Union dealing with the courts and judicial system. Considered cruel by most standards, Cardassians have a unique sense of justice. Often the verdict and punishments of criminals are arranged far in advance of any trial. Because of this, trials, usually publicly broadcasted, are just propaganda for the Cardassian government. Although sweeping reform took over Cardassia following the Dominion War, the Cardassian sense of justice as gone unwavering.

ATL 3.1.0 New and Noteworthy

Revision as of 09:28, 9 June 2010 by William.piers.obeo.fr (Talk | contribs) (ATL Plugins)

Helios Release

The ATL Toolkit is now compatible with Eclipse Helios (Eclipse 3.6, EMF 2.6). ATL is still compatible with Eclipse 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.2.

ATL Editor improvements

  • Hover informations

TODO ATL hover.png

  • Open declaration (both available with F3 and Ctrl-click)

TODO ATL open declaration.png

  • Content assist

TODO ATL advanced content assist2.png

  • Occurences highlighting

ATL Language

Output Model selection

A miss in the ATL syntax has just been corrected: the in keyword is now available for both input and output patterns. It mainly allow to specify in which model you want to create elements, when the old semantics forbade the use of several output models conforming to the same metamodel declaration. The workaround wasn't very intuitive as it consists on declaring the same metamodel with different names...

The use of this keyword is described at the end of this section.

Debugging & Profiling

debugger refactoring

ATL Plugins

The ATL plugin wizard is a new feature which helps achieving an ATL programmatic launch. This utility first will ask for transformation parameters (metamodels, libraries paths, transformation modules paths):

ATL plugin wizard.png

Then a new plug-in will be generated, embedding:

  • the transformation modules and libraries
  • a propery file containing URIs, atl file paths
  • a Java class which allow to programmatically launch the ATL transformation

ATL plugin wizard result.png

Finally you will be able to launch the transformation using the generated main, or integrating the launcher class into an existing application. To use the transformation as a standalone app, you can use Eclipse PDE export options:

This will product a .jar containing all the required ATL, Eclipse and EMF libraries.

Typography is a fundamental part of a template, providing you with the tools to characterise your content and bring it to life. There is a vast array of typography available with this template, as is with our previous releases, from list styles, notice blocks and a diverse number of other elements.

There are now 2 methods in which to implement the typography into your Joomla content:-

  1. HTML Mode: This is the typical approach seen in pre-2009 templates, were you had to physically add the HTML to your content in order for it to work. This can be a strenuous task for two main reasons. The first being the WYSIWYG editor of Joomla, which, more often than not would strip out the HTML from your content if you opened any formatted article with it. The second being the ability of the user, if you are using purely to the WYSIWYG editor, using the HTML mode or no editor at all can be a difficult step to reach.
  2. RokCandy Mode: The all new component from RocketTheme which allows you to implement typography easily, without fear of the WYSIWYG editor ruining your formatting and allows you, and/or your clients to add them to your content with ease. This is through a method similar to BBcode (as seen in a forum). WYSIWYG friendly syntax can be used, or even custom configured that will transform a set snippet to the correct HTML when it is parsed by Joomla.

Why use RokCandy?

RokCandy is the ideal solution for those with limited coding skills or those who implement our templates for their clients. It is free from the WYSIWYG editors horrific filtering habits and can be easily pre-configured for your personal needs or the needs of your client.

If you are apt with HTML, and are not implementing a site for someone who has limited coding skills, then the HTML method would be our recommended choice.

How To Disable Automatic Updates in Windows 8

Sick of Windows Automatic Updates feature hogging your bandwidth? Here’s a guide on how to disable it!

If Windows 8 is set to its default settings, then the operating system will automatically download and install updates.

While some users find this a useful feature, it takes away some control that many feel should be down to them. If you like to stay in charge of when and if you computer updates and need to disable this setting, here is a guide on how to do so!

1. Step

First, bring up the Charms Bar from the desktop screen. If you’re using a mouse, this is done by moving the cursor to the right side of the screen. If you’re using a touchscreen, simply swipe in from the right.

2. Step

Within the Charms Bar, there will be several options. Either click or tap on ‘Settings’.

3. Step

This will open a list of new options. Scroll to the bottom of this list and select ‘Control Panel’ by either clicking or tapping on it.

4. Step

Depending on your view settings, you will be presented with different options. Either click or tap ‘Security and Settings’ followed by ‘Turn automatic updating on or off’ or ‘Windows Update’ and ‘Change settings.

Both options will take you to the ‘Update Settings’ screen.

5. Step

On this screen, the first drop down enables you to choose how updates are downloaded and installed. If Windows is downloading and installing updates automatically then the top option will be selected.

Any of these three remaining options will ensure that Windows 8 does not install any of Microsoft’s regular updates without checking with you first. You can choose to Windows to download updates but request permission to install them, to ask your permission to download and install an update when available, or to ignore all future updates.

This last option will require you to check manually to see if there are any updates available. If you’re unsure which option to choose, we recommend the first.

Once you’ve chosen your preferred method from the drop down, click or tap on the ‘Ok’ button to save your new settings.

Document:  All > Shakespeare > Tragedies > Hamlet > Act I, scene III

Jump to: the first appearance of this_above_all:_to_thine_ownself_be_true,

LAERTES: My necessaries are embark'd: farewell:
	And, sister, as the winds give benefit
	And convoy is assistant, do not sleep,
	But let me hear from you.

OPHELIA: Do you doubt that?

LAERTES: For Hamlet and the trifling of his favour,
	Hold it a fashion and a toy in blood,
	A violet in the youth of primy nature,
	Forward, not permanent, sweet, not lasting,
	The perfume and suppliance of a minute; No more.

OPHELIA:        No more but so?

LAERTES: Think it no more;
	For nature, crescent, does not grow alone
	In thews and bulk, but, as this temple waxes,
	The inward service of the mind and soul
	Grows wide withal. Perhaps he loves you now,
	And now no soil nor cautel doth besmirch
	The virtue of his will: but you must fear,
	His greatness weigh'd, his will is not his own;
	For he himself is subject to his birth:
	He may not, as unvalued persons do,
	Carve for himself; for on his choice depends
	The safety and health of this whole state;
	And therefore must his choice be circumscribed
	Unto the voice and yielding of that body
	Whereof he is the head. Then if he says he loves you,
	It fits your wisdom so far to believe it
	As he in his particular act and place
	May give his saying deed; which is no further
	Than the main voice of Denmark goes withal.
	Then weigh what loss your honour may sustain,
	If with too credent ear you list his songs,
	Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
	To his unmaster'd importunity.
	Fear it, Ophelia, fear it, my dear sister,
	And keep you in the rear of your affection,
	Out of the shot and danger of desire.
	The chariest maid is prodigal enough,
	If she unmask her beauty to the moon:
	Virtue itself 'scapes not calumnious strokes:
	The canker galls the infants of the spring,
	Too oft before their buttons be disclosed,
	And in the morn and liquid dew of youth
	Contagious blastments are most imminent.
	Be wary then; best safety lies in fear:
	Youth to itself rebels, though none else near.

OPHELIA: I shall the effect of this good lesson keep,
	As watchman to my heart. But, good my brother,
	Do not, as some ungracious pastors do,
	Show me the steep and thorny way to heaven;
	Whiles, like a puff'd and reckless libertine,
	Himself the primrose path of dalliance treads,
	And recks not his own rede.

LAERTES: O, fear me not.
	I stay too long: but here my father comes.

	A double blessing is a double grace,
	Occasion smiles upon a second leave.

LORD POLONIUS: Yet here, Laertes! aboard, aboard, for shame!
	The wind sits in the shoulder of your sail,
	And you are stay'd for. There; my blessing with thee!
	And these few precepts in thy memory
	See thou character. Give thy thoughts no tongue,
	Nor any unproportioned thought his act.
	Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar.
	Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
	Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel;
	But do not dull thy palm with entertainment
	Of each new-hatch'd, unfledged comrade. Beware
	Of entrance to a quarrel, but being in,
	Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee.
	Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice;
	Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.
	Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,
	But not express'd in fancy; rich, not gaudy;
	For the apparel oft proclaims the man,
	And they in France of the best rank and station
	Are of a most select and generous chief in that.
	Neither a borrower nor a lender be;
	For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
	And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
	This above all: to thine ownself be true,
	And it must follow, as the night the day,
	Thou canst not then be false to any man.
	Farewell: my blessing season this in thee!

LAERTES: Most humbly do I take my leave, my lord.

LORD POLONIUS: The time invites you; go; your servants tend.

LAERTES: Farewell, Ophelia; and remember well
	What I have said to you.

OPHELIA: 'Tis in my memory lock'd,
	And you yourself shall keep the key of it.

LAERTES: Farewell.

LORD POLONIUS: What is't, Ophelia, be hath said to you?

OPHELIA: So please you, something touching the Lord Hamlet.

LORD POLONIUS: Marry, well bethought:
	'Tis told me, he hath very oft of late
	Given private time to you; and you yourself
	Have of your audience been most free and bounteous:
	If it be so, as so 'tis put on me,
	And that in way of caution, I must tell you,
	You do not understand yourself so clearly
	As it behoves my daughter and your honour.
	What is between you? give me up the truth.

OPHELIA: He hath, my lord, of late made many tenders
	Of his affection to me.

LORD POLONIUS: Affection! pooh! you speak like a green girl,
	Unsifted in such perilous circumstance.
	Do you believe his tenders, as you call them?

OPHELIA: I do not know, my lord, what I should think.

LORD POLONIUS: Marry, I'll teach you: think yourself a baby;
	That you have ta'en these tenders for true pay,
	Which are not sterling. Tender yourself more dearly;
	Or--not to crack the wind of the poor phrase,
	Running it thus--you'll tender me a fool.

OPHELIA: My lord, he hath importuned me with love
	In honourable fashion.

LORD POLONIUS: Ay, fashion you may call it; go to, go to.

OPHELIA: And hath given countenance to his speech, my lord,
	With almost all the holy vows of heaven.

LORD POLONIUS: Ay, springes to catch woodcocks. I do know,
	When the blood burns, how prodigal the soul
	Lends the tongue vows: these blazes, daughter,
	Giving more light than heat, extinct in both,
	Even in their promise, as it is a-making,
	You must not take for fire. From this time
	Be somewhat scanter of your maiden presence;
	Set your entreatments at a higher rate
	Than a command to parley. For Lord Hamlet,
	Believe so much in him, that he is young
	And with a larger tether may he walk
	Than may be given you: in few, Ophelia,
	Do not believe his vows; for they are brokers,
	Not of that dye which their investments show,
	But mere implorators of unholy suits,
	Breathing like sanctified and pious bawds,
	The better to beguile. This is for all:
	I would not, in plain terms, from this time forth,
	Have you so slander any moment leisure,
	As to give words or talk with the Lord Hamlet.
	Look to't, I charge you: come your ways.

OPHELIA: I shall obey, my lord.

Glowing Engineers

Lynda Gratton, a psychologist with the London Business School, has come up with the phrase - - "Glow at work." According to Gratton, individuals that Glow have mastered three distinct areas of their lives - - (1) They have built deeply trusting and cooperative relationships with others, (2) They have extended their networks beyond the obvious to encompass the unusual, and (3) They are on an inner quest that ignites their own energy and that of others.

As outlined in the Spring 2010 issue of Rotman, Gratton outlines her nine facets of Glowing:
  1. People who Glow have five daily habits - - they have realistic and positive expectations of others, they are prepared to share valuable information with others, they act with discretion, they use the language of cooperation, and they make and keep commitments.
  2. People who Glow are able to bring emotional authenticity and analytical rigor to their conversations and use the art of great conversation as the bedrock of their cooperation with others.
  3. People who Glow are astute at acting on the "smell of the place", they know the signs of the Big Freeze and how to avoid it.
  4. People who Glow are skilled at increasing the value of their networks and at balancing their networks between people who are similar to them and people who are very different from them.
  5. People who Glow are skilled at escaping the boundaries that constrain them, they allow for serendipity in their lives and are prepared to meet new people and take untrodden paths to broaden their experience.
  6. People who Glow are adept at finding and moving to boundary-less places. They know how to connect with people and places that encourage them to grow by creating opportunities to jump across worlds.
  7. People who Glow are adept at asking the big questions that spark energy which requires courage and focus.
  8. People who Glow create a compelling vision that sparks energy and is so exciting and engaging that others are drawn to it.
  9. People who Glow craft meaningful and exciting work that stimulates them and others.

wiTdom Innovation Lab

It gives me immense pleasure to see sensex getting crashed from 21000 level to present 18900 level.
We had predicted in our october 2010 blog about this crash and it just happened.We at wiTdom innovation Lab use our various strategies using various tools like Fundamental Analysis,Technical Analysis and Astro Analysis.Let me intoduce you today to what is Astro analysis.The two most fundamental principles of TRUE ASTROLOGY are the principles of Bear & Bull planets and Bear & Bull aspects. These principles are NOT my discovery; they have survived astrology for more than 5000 years. It is just that I have found methods & principles to verify that these principles actually work in modern financial astrology.
Let me now present some fundamental truths about astrology that many financial astrologers are in denial of today. 1) The Principle of Bear & Bull PlanetsThere are two bullish planets and two bearish planets, the two bullish planets are Jupiter (long term bullish) and Venus (short term bullish) and the two bearish planets are Saturn (long term bearish) and Mars (short term bearish).
2) The Principle of Bear & Bull AspectsThere are two bullish aspects and two bearish aspects, the bullish aspects are the trine (120) and the conjunction (0), the bearish aspects are the square (90) and the opposition (180). By combining the bullish aspects with the bullish planets and the bearish aspects with the bearish planets, many stock market ups and downs can already be explained (once the stock market ruling planets are known). If Bullish planets meat bearish aspects and vice versa, the Aspects will rule over the planets, meaning that Trines from Saturn will be bullish, while squares from Jupiter will be slightly bearish, slightly because the nature of Jupiter is bullish.
There are generally bullish and bearish planets and aspects that are responsible for all markets rising and falling. Yes particular planets are more important than others, when it comes to forecasting the short or long-term direction of a market. There are certain markets ruled by certain planets and horoscopes have values .The planets be used to determine support and resistance levels and to trade the markets based on price action.
Hope we soon get our crystal ball gazing for 2011 for you soon.
Always yours

WikiMedia Commons

Bison roamed the Mid-South for thousands of years, and their remains can be found in sand and gravel bars throughout our region.

In August of 1870, the brutal murder of Colonel Thomas Dickins was reported in the Memphis Avalanche. According to the article, Col. Dickins, returning to his farm near Raleigh, "was way-laid by some fiend, and his life destroyed, in daylight, on a public road."

The assassin had ambushed the victim and fired both barrels of a shotgun into Col. Dickins' body from close range.

Ernst von Hesse-Wartegg

Apr 9, 2013

Ernst von Hesse-Wartegg, an Austro-German traveler, visited Memphis a few months after the 1878 Yellow Fever epidemic.

He described his mixed reactions to the city in his memoir Travels on the Lower Mississippi.

He wrote, “After traveling to the four corners of the world, I cannot remember impressions anywhere as disagreeable as those upon entering this Memphis.

From Richardson’s Landing, TN, to Greenville, MS, the sand and gravel bars of the Mississippi River cut through old sediments in the riverbed and along its banks, exposing fossil remains of ancient bison that roamed the Mid-South at least 10,000 years ago. These ancestors of modern bison stood almost seven feet tall at the shoulder, and weighed around 2,000 pounds.

James Winchester

Feb 26, 2013

James Winchester, one of the founders of Memphis, was born in Maryland in 1752. He served under George Washington in the American Revolution, endured capture by the British, and moved to Middle Tennessee after his release.

By 1785, Winchester had build a fortified home in this still untamed wilderness, survived Indian attacks, which killed his brother and several friends, and started a family with his young wife, Susan.

Frances Wright

Dec 20, 2012

Scottish by birth, Frances Wright earned her reputation as a reformer in the United States.  She was an early champion of women's rights, democracy, the working class, and abolition.

Wright believed slaves had to be prepared to live as free people, so, in October of 1825, she purchased a few slaves and some land in the present Germantown area, establishing the Neshoba Plantation.

The Vietnam War was one of the signal events of the last half of the 20th century.  It was controversial, and the controversy continued long after the war ended.

The Vietnam Memorial Wall itself was the subject of much debate.  When the design was unveiled, many felt it was not "monumental" enough, but, since its unveiling, it has become an icon, a fitting and moving memorial to the more than 58,000 American military personnel who died during the war.

The Circus

I have told you about the "Little Rascals" in the small town where I lived as a child. Today, I am going to write a new episode about their adventures. Growing up in a small town in the early 1950's was a wonderful time. There was never a thought of some evil thing happening to a child, as we knew everybody in town and everybody watched out for us. They also were part of our adventures.

On a yearly basis, The Circus came to town. This was a very small circus with a few elephants, acrobats, monkeys, and some trick ponies. They also brought the wonderful cotton candy and snow cone machine that was a wonder to us. I still remember my first experience with cotton candy. The big puffy bite that I took was nothing in my mouth. I loved the magic of it.

Our gang was not one to wait around for the annual circus. Maybe its coming or going inspired us as we created a "circus" of our own. We had our own talents to show off. Rover was adorned in a fur collar from some mothers old coat and placed in the crate on our wagon and he became a vicious "Lion". I am not sure he liked the trip around the square in town, but he lead the parade. One daring young man walked his stilts and we had clowns, jugglers, acrobats, and my sister could twirl a baton. We made signs announcing our performance times and place and marched around the square in town with all of the confidence in the world. The Circus was coming to Town!!!!

Several children came to the back yard circus to see our talents and we even had a few adults, who were kind even if they didn't belong to any of us. They were just looking for a little entertainment. You see, this was even before the days of TV. It was a time when everyone sit on the front porch and knew the people and children in the neighborhood. I don't remember what we charged, if anybody had real money, but you could get in for the price of soda bottles. At that time we could take them to the local grocer and get 2 pennies for them.....I think we charged two bottles per person. Whatever it was, didn't matter, we were having fun and were the stars for the evening. Would children dare to have a parade around the square in town today? Would they have to have a permit, get and escort, and have the street blocked off?
I am glad that I had the opportunities that I did. What a great time to be a kid.

The 30 Second Secret To Blasting Your Energy Levels Through The Roof

There is an underlying inner sleep system which the quality of your sleep and your daily energy levels highly depend on.

When your body produces feelings of “sleepiness” to send you a signal that you later interpret in a way like… “I feel tired, I better get to bed…”

Most people don’t know how to use this system to their advantage…

Your Body’s Natural Body Temperature Rhythm Plays A Key Role In How Much Energy You Have!

In grade 5 science class, most of us are taught that our body temperature stays at a constant 98.5 degrees Fahrenheit (36.6 Celsius). In reality, this is false. Your body temperature varies by about 6 degrees every day. This rise and fall of your body temperature is known as your body temperature rhythm, or as some like to call it your “circadian rhythm.”

Believe it or not, it’s this rise and fall of your body temperature that plays a major role in:
  • When you feel sleepy
  • When you feel energized.
When your temperature is dropping, you feel “sleepy” and more towards the “tired” side. This is like a cue for your body to create feelings of sleepiness.
When your body temperature is rising, you tend to feel energized, alert, relaxed, and more “awake”.

Quick method to blast your energiy levels:

95% of the times when you feel sleepy and tired during the day, it has nothing to do with how much you slept during the night (unless you are severely sleep deprived), how much sleep you need at that moment, or how much rest you need. 95% of the time when we feel tired, sleepy or lethargic is because our body temp. is dropping. And the body temp. falls usually due to one of the three reasons here:

1. After intense physical exercise.
2. After a long period of physical activity.
3. Right after being still or inactive for a long period of time.

The point is: Most of us mistake this drop of body temperature for the need to sleep. So we end up taking long naps, or rest and we actually lower our energy even more.

This is what you do:

 All you have to do is to reverse this body temperature. And the way to do that is to take a short 5-10 min. period of intense physical activity. This can be simple as going outside to play with your kids, going to play with the dog, taking a run around the block or just going away for fresh air or jumping up and down. In sum: get your body in motion.

Now, when we have an intense routine, with a lot of physical activity we will feel exhausted at the end of each day. This will rest the quantity of waking time and quality time in our lives. So instead of going straight to sleep at the end of a busy day, we can try out using this technique to raise our energy and drive in our lives.

Looking back to the walked road

Just for a moment of self indulgence

All the moments that are now gone

All the faces we saw, the arms that embraced us

Times when with raw spirits we opened our wings
And flew…

The friends we made and will never see again

The friends we made and will see one more time

The friends we made and will meet many times again

Times when with genuine innocence we opened our hearts

And loved…

The lovers we met and will never hold again

The lovers we met and will kiss one more time

The lovers we met and will continue with us for a lifetime

Just for a moment of self indulgence

Let me look back one more time

And walk through the roads I once walked

And meet the friends I once met

And hold the lovers I once held

And shed the tears I once shed

And smile the smiles I once smiled

I can move on now

Until I meet those friends

Until I hold those lovers

Until I realize: it was all a fantasy

And I meet you: the all

Ever heard about "Binaural beats"?

Binaural beats or binaural tones are auditory processing artifacts, or apparent sounds, the perception of which arises in the brain independent of physical stimuli. This effect was discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove. Dove discovered that when two sounds, that are similar but slightly shifted in frequency, are presented separately to the left and right ear (Binaural) they will cause a pulsation or beat type effect in the brain.

For example, if a pure tone of 400 Hz is presented to the right ear and a pure tone of 410 Hz is presented simultaneously to the left ear, an amplitude modulated standing wave of 10 Hz, the difference between the two tones, is experienced as the two wave forms mesh in and out of phase within the superior olivary nuclei.

The human auditory apparatus can hear sounds with a pitch as low as about 20Hz (Hertz = cycles per second), give or take a few Hertz. However, the frequency of brainwaves—particularly those associated with states of relaxation and sleep—can go much lower, even below 1Hz. So a recording of a sound at, say, 4Hz would be inaudible and would have no effect. However, if you pitch two sounds exactly 4Hz apart (say, one at 100Hz and the other at 104Hz) and play one in each ear, the brain “manufactures” a 4Hz beat.

EEG and the brain's state

The binaural-beat appears to be associated with an electroencephalographic (EEG) frequency-following response in the brain.

EEG (Electroencephalography) technology is used to measure brain's electrical vibrations from the surface of the scalp. The resulting EEG pattern will contain frequency elements mainly below 30Hz. The frequencies are categorized into four states as follows:

The dominant frequency in the EEG pattern determines what shall be called the current state of the brain. If the amplitude of the alpha range frequencies is highest, then the brain is said to be in the alpha stage.

Proven theories

"The subjective effect of listening to binaural beats may be relaxing or stimulating, depending on the frequency of the binaural-beat stimulation" (Owens & Atwater, 1995). Binaural beats in the delta (1 to 4 Hz) and theta (4 to 8 Hz) ranges have been associated with reports of relaxed, meditative, and creative states (Hiew, 1995), and used as an aid to falling asleep.

Binaural beats in the alpha frequencies (8 to 12 Hz) have increased alpha brain waves (Foster, 1990) and binaural beats in the beta frequencies (typically 16 to 24 Hz) have been associated with reports of increased concentration or alertness (Monroe, 1985) and improved memory (Kennerly, 1994).

Brainwaves have been found to mimic the effect of certain drugs:

Role of the Soul, function of the Mind

To understand how the superconscious (the soul) determines ultimately our reality I am going to use a metaphor.

Let us say that I am a successful business person. No, I am the most successful business person in the whole planet (mind me Mr. Gates). That means, I have enough wealth to assure the future of a large number of generations of my

One day, without announcement, I suddenly lose my memory: pum! vanished.

I wake up covered by the finest fabrics, in a room with enough space to fit a yacht and the sense of luxury that only the finest decoration could add. Observing the environment, I obviously conclude that I am a well-heeled person.

After a while, I am heading on to my daily business, disregarding the fact that I do not remember how I made this huge empire. I take my risks; continue investing here and there, just following the occasional hunches. I feel free to simply follow my intuition, and I succeed.

 Now, with this metaphor I can explain easily what I am heading on to.

 Our ultimate truth, is that our existence is guaranteed, and that our journey trough this physical plane is meant to be joyful, abundant and designed for our spiritual involvement. We are all born with a largest agenda, the agenda of our souls. To experience the expression of the highest image of ourselves.

We do not remember this though, because our True Identity and our Soul Agenda are matters of our souls, which we are not aware of all the time.

Any way, our living conditions (including environment, people, time and situations) are a sign post for our minds to know the natural road to take.

From time to time, through the experiencing of our lives, we get these “Soul-to-mind” direct messages, that we interpret as hunches, or intuition.

And if we get to make those communications a matter of priority, the domains of the Superconscious can be accesses. It is in here, that our truly creative nature is unleashed.

Earthly creatures, heavenly beings. Putting all together:

Our individuated selves are a part of a larger intelligence, and our superconscious minds are fully aware of that fact. At subconscious or even conscious level we might not be, but there is always an innate response we all human have to bond beyond imposed borders or labels of any kind.
As a natural expression of who we are, we do feel attracted toward each other and to a higher source of whatever kind. It is automatic, and no science can explain with exactitude how this happens. It happened in the Stone Age, when humans were said to worship the forces of nature, even when they could not understand what they were. It happened through our entire history, in every nation, no matter the creed. And it continues happening, it is fascinating how we are intuitively responsive to a larger truth. And in current times, when the outward commodities are of infinite number, worshipping divine forces without knowing why are we actually doing this, is not enough. We yearn to know what we are; who we are, why we are and how are we doing what we do.

 Can it be possible that we are not fully aware of our own truth? As individuals and as the collective? The soul (superconscious) is the integrating key.
It is the order in the chaos, eternity in the limited time, serenity in the madness, certainty in the fear.
The soul is what makes sense of everything we experience here on earth. It is what puts everything into context. The knowledge and the wisdom of every part, relative and absolute, past and present, doubt and certain, lays quiet in the soul. The subconscious mind keeps our magnificent instrument alive, the superconscious mind takes us beyond the world of sense perceptions, and the conscious mind is the tool to access it. We are earthly creatures, dwelling a perfect vehicle to be used with a single purpose: express our divine nature.
The grounds of the mind and beyond, is like a closed door that keeps secluded a Pandora’s Box. The studies are advancing and more is known now about us.
What in ancient times was considered outrageous theories is now part of the global library of scientific documentations.
The movement for a holistic view of the human existence is pushing its way to be considered and never ignored any more. Classic physics fails to explain accurately the whole impact of tiny elements interacting with each other, as that is what we actually are in fundamental nature. New trends of science are gaining force by raising our awareness to new perspectives and astonishing data.
It is our responsibility now, to become aware and open our minds. The need is compelling, for no one can ignore the magnitude and vastness of our existences. A regular life with regular perspectives is no longer enough, no matter how much we try to convince ourselves of the contrary. Deep inside we carry the immensity of the universe, and deep inside we know this.

Superconscious = Soul

In psychology the superconscious is the equivalent term to the soul, as used in spirituality and relating branches.
As I got to know, the superconscious is that part of us that is connected to the creator, to the divine, to the largest intelligence of the universe, or anything we might call it.
That part of us that is already everything it was originally meant to be.

“YOUR TRUE BEING, which is WHO YOU REALLY ARE, precedes everything.”

The "I Am That I Am" that transcends personality from lifetime to lifetime is the superconscious. It exists beyond the personality identity of the conscious and the genetically inborn collective unconscious. As Jung suggested, the superconscious is what the Hindu called the "higher" conscious. It communicates in synchronicity and intuition and is comprised of soul memory and past-life experiences. The "I Am That I Am" of the superconscious is the soul that transcends lifetimes.

Bodily wise, humans are known to share 99.99% of the same DNA with other human fellows. Do you think this is a coincidence? It takes only a peek inside our own cells to know what we really are. We are all the same, originally we are actually one. And furthermore, that sameness is the reproduction of what we are known to be at soul level (superconscious level): unity expressed in a single entity. The collective, individualized. A portion of divinity.
Like when you take a glass of water out of the sea, it appears to be just that: a glass of water. But if you analyze it, the composition is the same as its source. It is a portion of the sea in a container. So are we, as a figure of speech.

“The soul’s consciousness emerges from the soul’s State of Being. That is, One with everything, across all time and in every place.”

We are said to be on a journey thru a relative world. The term relative, meaning that everything exists in relation to something else.
Thus, time exists because space exists. Up exists because down exists. Light exists because darkness exists. Past exists because present exists. Birth exists because death exists.

Although, our ultimate reality is known to be absolute, that is, there are no experiences of opposites. Actually, there are no experiences, just a state of being.
There is no separation, there is no darkness, there is no death, there is no time.
And our souls are in that state of being: absolute, infinite, eternal, illuminated.
The current journey of our souls is just a passing among infinite chances that defy credibility. The experience of a soul is up to that soul, so whatever is held in sustained belief creates a perspective, which in turns is the direct cause of the experienced reality.
If the perspective is short, than the reality will be short. If the perspective is reduced to a life of birth, growth and death, than the reality will be experienced like that.

And that is what “the power of the mind” really means. By use of the mind we create a perspective that hold our entire experience of the reality we call “my life”.
If the mind is lowered to the level of subconscious reactions, the perspective is going to be reactive instead of deliberated, and the reality we will experience will be a series of random happenings and chaotic events.
If the mind is kept consciously aware, it can be trained to choose a perspective with a wider field of possibilities, and the reality we will experience will be more controlled.
Now, if the mind is raised to the level of the superconscious, the conscious mind can be used to access a state of being were the soul takes charge of every decision and outcome, and we will not be lost in “doing stuff” or struggling our way to get everything we want. We will use our minds to train itself to stop the compulsive thinking. To leave wider spaces for our minds to just BE still. And that will leave more space for the superconscious mind to infuse our minds with that larger intelligence that is the actual creator of realities.

Superconscious mind

I have come to the last of the three levels of consciousness that any given human being has. And for me, it is the most important one.

As I said before many times “what we hold in our minds is what we experience as real”. Thus what we believe is WHAT IS in our experience.
No one has the last word in what we experience, and not 2 experiences are the same.
Perspective is everything, and no one can convince us of a different perspective if it does not match our own. The choice of perspective is a personal and private matter.

Now, to understand what the superconscious mind is, we have to open our minds to have a larger picture of the experience we call life and leave disbelieve aside for a while. Later, you can decide as I said, if this truth matches your own.
I feel just as a tiny speck behind the grandness of God’s perfect plan. I don’t know if I can use the word “my” life anymore. Not even “life”, it makes me feel as if I am belittling the enormous, humongous reality. So I know that any description will always be but a slight resemblance of what actually is.

When I explained about the subconscious mind, and the mechanism behind that grand orchestra, I came into the same conclusion that many had: there is a largest intelligence in charge of our existences. During the renaissance time, the established theory among physicians was that “some spirits kept the body alive”. But the whole description of the human physiology was based more on religious assumptions than in the scientific method of direct observation and reproduction of mechanisms.

As this method delayed the advancement of science, the tendency turned into a more materialistic and pragmatic style, leaving a gap between mysticism and materialism. This trend became the foundations of modern science, thus the scientists are among the most skeptic observers and rational critics of spiritual matters. But not just them, this rationalization of facts have infected our entire cultural background with disbelieve.

Even though, when science has taken us into a never dreamed era of advancements, the methodical study and elucidation of the human body is still incomplete.
There are several grounds of our existences that remain unexplained. There are effects and events that startle and fascinate in the same time. There are scientific reports of mysterious happenings and incredible abilities of living humans.
Here the ground fails to be there for pragmatisms, and our intuition assisted by an open mind take the wheel.

New Year New Opportunities

Let me start the year with an ongoing awareness.
In another of my “flash-out-of the blue” insights, I pictured the coffin I drew above.

And the caption went like this:
There is not impossible situation in your present lifetime. Impossible is something you are making up.

When you are conceived, the word “impossible” is imprinted in the fertilized egg, your very original cell. Like guarded in a coffin, locked and than left buried deep within your DNA. That cell replicates to originate every cell that your body now has.
Thus you have the word, the idea of “impossible” literally imprinted in every cell of your body.
You might conclude than, that you are nothing but a victim of genetics. But that is not the case.

“Impossible” is something you are making up. Be it conditioned or not, aware or unaware. You see, you are neither your cells nor your body.
You are not even your mind or your soul. Who you are is not what you “THINK” you are.
And you have plenty of time to realize this fact, and also numerous reminders along the way. Can you see that your unawareness is something you choose? Not something that you can not help?

If you just hear once, just one time but fully, intentionally. Than you will never have to experience every “illusion” you have bought in to.

a shift of perspective (all about best sellers)

Watch this movie to awaken your inquisitive mind by meeting some scientists behind the quantum physic paradigm. It provides meaningful information about the biochemistry of emotion and the impact of thought on our daily life experience.

This book is a delightful scientific-shake.

For a deep understanding of the ego and its actual invalidating effects.

A beautifully written book that brings new insights on the matter of mind mechanics and superconscious awareness. The engine behind major life changes: why change occurs and how. It will at least prepare you to face change with a different stand.

An amazingly wise essay that gives us an idea of how old is actually the "theory of mind power". Written in 1902 by James Allen.

Beyond Reactive Thinking

Traditionally, a highly dynamic mind has been considered intelligent, inquisitive and profitable. But with the advocacy of ongoing neuroscientific, cognitive psychology and consciousness studies researches, the tendency towards “educating our minds” is been increasingly accepted.
The process of thinking is more and more acknowledged as a voluntary, intentional quality of our kind.
Thus, compulsive, or even helplessly hyperactive minds are considered to be a sign of untamed subconsciousness or dormant consciousness.

“As it is, I would say about 80 to 90 percent of most people's thinking is not only repetitive and useless, but because of its dysfunctional and often negative nature, much of it is also harmful. Observe your mind and you will find this to be true. It causes a serious leakage of vital energy.” 1

Helplessly hyperactive minds are a source of high level of stress. A forever talkative mind leaves very less space for purposeful and focused thinking, interferes with concentration and diverts attention.

“Thinking and consciousness are not synonymous. Thinking is only a small aspect of consciousness. Thought cannot exist without consciousness, but consciousness does not need thought.
Enlightenment means rising above thought, not falling back to a level below thought, the level of an animal or a plant. In the enlightened state, you still use your thinking mind when needed, but in a much more focused and effective way than before. You use it mostly for practical purposes, but you are free of the involuntary internal dialogue, and there is inner stillness. Only in that way is it possible to think creatively, because only in that way does thought have any real power. Thought alone, when it is no longer connected with the much vaster realm of consciousness, quickly becomes barren, insane, destructive”.2

The art of deliberate thinking

With the fast developing of science, the understanding of the mind processes has extensively advanced. The role of “mind over matter” is now more accepted with the introduction of new evidences. Reality as we perceive it is said to be not only affected by “the observer”; but also created by a complex process that involves high states of consciousness and thinking. 3

There are experiments that attest that our consciousness influences others, material goods, and our future in a co creative manner. 4 It does not matter if we believe in this fact, it still happens whether we believe in it or not. 5
That is the premises of the so called “Law of attraction”, which was introduced as early as 1902, by the physicist John Ambrose Fleming, and continued all the way through history until present days.

The number of statements is large, and the contemporary counsel show a regular trend towards training the mind to be the tool it was originally meant to be. By an endless number of methods and systems, the mind can be re-educated to be purposeful and disciplined in the pursuit of a higher level of intelligence. That is to raise the level of awareness by means of a more effective use of the mental processes.

Why is Indoor Storage better?

Storing your RV or Boat indoors prevents damage from the sun’s UV rays, which will deteriorate the roof, paint, tires, rubber moldings and caulking. Storing your vehicle outdoors will “cook” your interior and damage window treatments, tints and coverings, woods, upholstery and fabrics. Indoor storage will reduce all of these common problems:

•  Freezing of coolants and resultant engine damage
•  Bleaching or rotting of canvas covers and awnings
•  Rust or corrosion on chrome wheels or aluminum surfaces
•  Uninvited guests (birds, rodents, insects)
•  Rainwater buildup on canvas covers or water seeping into interior
•  Roof resealing and recoating due to cracking
•  Paint or gel coat oxidation, stains or black streaks
•  Vandalism, break in, theft or other unauthorized access
•  Burglars not able to know when you have left your home by your RV or boat missing from the side of your home

She's no longer a boobiemonger, she's graduated to bigger and better things-tantrum warfare. She is on at least a four year old level, so all that boobiemongering must have improved her tantrum skills. ;D

Bunny Love

I still love this dress.

March 3

It’s just really flattering, the bunny print is fun, and it’s appropriate for work OR play.

March 3
*I am wearing The Plum Tights of Controversy*

I normally wear it with a blazer from the same collection, or my baby biker jacket. And what’s funny is that I was trying to branch out so as to not bore you AND practice mixing and matching, and yet it seems I’ve never worn the blazer + bunny dress combo on the blog!~
But this is the blazer:
October 1, 2008

(I think I must have worn that blazer a lot right before I started the blog. I think of it as an overused piece, but have featured it all of one time.)

and my biker jacket…
October 9

But since I’m trying to spin things, I wore it with the little black and white dotted H&M jacket.

Can we get a close-up of this bunny print? Is there one elsewhere? I wanna see da bunnies!

Work With What You've Got said...

Why certainly Sal!~ (That felt so fun in my head I almost said it out loud in my cube!)

Alannah said...

That is the collection I'm the saddest about missing out on from Target. Every time I see that dress on you I just squee a little--the bunnies are SO CUTE.

Candycane said...

Love Love Love the bunnies :D

Chiffon and Leather

I’ve made it know before, but I am SUCH a fan of a tough little fitted leather jacket and a floaty sweet dress.

March 17

March 17

March 17

I think they are such a great contrast. In keeping with things I normally wear another way, I normally wear this dress with my Temperly military jacket, which I also think looks really good with the dress, but NEW WAYS are what will keep my wardrobe fresh.

I love these little Payless booties, they are much more comfortable than they look!

This looks fab -- I'm totally stealing this idea from you. I'll wear my leather jacket with the newly-altered floral minidress that used to be a romper -- another idea I stole from you!

Alannah said...

That 365 picture is one of my favourites! I also think that dress is just so flattering on you. Your legs look 10 miles long!

Sal said...

It's a fantastic combo, and you wear it so well!
