Listen here, Fenians. Let have no more of this nonsense. Young Rory deserves an MBE, not vile abuse on the Internet. Were Scotland to separate itself from the rest of the UK and embark on a future as a small, separate nation, it would be playing host to a sporting competition which absolutely embraces the philosophy of wider cooperation. Maybe, with Gallacher at the tee, Salmond would like to imagine of Scotland tackling the United States solo. He would be alone in such fantasy..

Links to articles, short comments on various topics - basically the sort of posts I would have put out on Google+ in previous years.
Fragmentation Needed - Cisco: Not Serious About Network Programmability.
Not only does the API fail to provide consistently formatted responses, it doesn't even provide a way to discover its version. Cisco advised me to scrape the 'show version' CLI output in order to know how to parse the API's responses.
IDG News: Inside the Russian hack of Yahoo.
The hack began with a spear-phishing email sent in early 2014 to a Yahoo company employee. It's unclear how many employees were targeted and how many emails were sent, but it only takes one person to click on a link, and it happened.
This has been fixed, obviously. Stephen Sclafani describes how he managed to steal messenger.com sessions, which then could be used to access the corresponding Facebook account.
It was possible to create a URL that when loaded by a user who was logged into their Facebook account would redirect a nonce for their account to another site. The nonce could then be used to create a messenger.com session for the user. Since messenger.com session cookies are interchangeable with facebook.com this gave full access to the user's Facebook account.
In response to a critic, Michael has written a long post about why the Pyra pocket computer project is where it is right now, and has attached a couple of pictures of one of the dev units (scroll to the end of the post), running the latest OS image.
"My Data. Your Business." on the ISOC blog worries that consumers might lose trust in online businesses over data privacy issues, and calls for a definition of acceptable business ethics.
We may not know the specifics, but we do know that somewhere out there someone is tracking us online: in fact, most of the data monetization machine is invisible to consumers — the individuals whose data fuels it.
All this has, understandably, left many people wary. Why WOULD you trust someone or something that is gathering information on you with no real insight into how it will be used?
The consequences of this could be devasting to the economy. If do not understand how their data will be handled and used and therefore don't trust online transactions, online business will wither and die.
Julia Evans writes about her blogging principles. Worth remembering those.
The APNIC blog has a guest post that explains quite a few operational details about the inner workings of the Mirai botnet components.
Do C2 master and bot have heartbeat communication?
Yes. The heartbeat will involve sending and receiving the same 2 bytes of data (content is 0x0000). The interval time is about 60 seconds and the maximum timeout is 180 seconds.
GRE ETH flood adds a custom ETH layer then GRE IP flood; the ETH layer is randomly filled. The destination IP in the packet is also randomly filled if it is not specified in the command.
netzpolitik.org weist heute im Hinblick auf die anstehenden Wahlen darauf hin, dass man der Weitergabe von Adressdaten aus dem Melderegister an Parteien wiedersprechen kann. Dazu stellen sie "gemeinsam mit der Plattform selbstauskunft.net" ein entsprechendes Wiederspruchsformular zur Verfügung.
Zumindest in Freiburg kann man das noch einfacher haben: Auf der Webseite der Stadt ist ein Formular zum Widerspruch nach dem Bundesmeldegesetz verlinkt (Quelle hier, unter "Meldewesen"), das man online ausfüllen und direkt abschicken kann.
Marc Solomon: Defense-in-Depth has Failed Us. Now What?
Oh, I do get that threat intelligence services are the current hot stuff in the security industry (and the author wants to help sell his own), but when a defender doesn't get the basics of IT security design, heaping another "point product" on top won't help a whole lot.
It's not just all drag and drop.
What are all those things in the Linux storage subsystem? Thomas Krenn has diagrams for various kernel versions in their wiki.
* A systematic analysis on 191 Xen vulnerabilities (Sections II and V).
* Nexen, a novel deconstruction of Xen into a securitymonitor, shared service domain, and sandboxed per-VM slices (Section III) implemented in Xen (Section IV) that efficiently uses paged based isolation mechanisms for fine-grained data isolation.
* As informed by the analysis, a novel least-privilege decomposition strategy that places highly vulnerable code into per-VM slices while maintaining high performance and either eliminating vulnerabilities entirely or confining exploits (evaluated in Section V).
* Efficient code, memory, and control-flow integrity enforcement between Xen and VMs (evaluated in Section VI).
The design mitigates about 2/3rds of the vulnerabilities that have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor over the past years.
Lame hackers guide has a short guide on weaponizing PostScript (cache), with two script examples (reading and writing arbitrary files).
Woah, either the KEXP audio engineers had a really, really bad day, or Clem Creevy has been completely done in by the drugs by now. KEXP has released a new set with Cherry Glazerr a couple of days ago. Clem's voice already seemed weak on their new record, but there's barely anything left in this recording (couldn't bear to listen for more than a couple of minutes, maybe it gets better later on).
Compare to their KEXP session two years ago.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory is working on digitizing thousands of films with high-speed footage from 1950s nuclear tests (before doing them above ground was banned). There's a playlist of 64 short videos on Youtube.
Tales From the Xenix Crypt analyzes the inner workings of the Xenix copy protection scheme.
If there's any lesson to be learned, it's probably that 30-year old copy protection is relatively easy to break using tools and computing power that did not exist 30 years ago.
Anyway - I used to be using the Self Destructing Cookies addon to automatically get rid of unused objects from closed tabs, and it turns out not to work anymore in Pale Moon 27... A discussion on the Pale Moon forums pointed to Cookies Exterminator as an alternative. So far, I've not seen any problems. The author is active on the PM forums, too.
Ivan Pepelnjak recently mentioned that Cisco IOS XE still doesn't have candidate configuration or commit capabilities, at least when using NETCONF automation.
acmetool (GitHub: hlandau/acme) seems to bring a couple of interesting options for serving acme http challenges, and a hook for external programs to handle the DNS challenge method. Configuration through simple files in a predefined directory structure. Looks like a workable compromise between the rather heavyweight official client and the various shell scripts.
That was a most welcome surprise for tonight... Five songs from the new album and a half-hour interview in this "full performance" video on the KEXP channel on YouTube.
The interview part is just as excellent as the music, and starts at 18:18 in the video. Lots of information about her life and her songwriting. Just listen to the three minutes from 47:37 for a strong reminder that these are not the times to stay depressed over.
The Trapper and the Furrier nicely shows off some of the flexibility of her voice.
Obviously, this replaces the header of a file. But why?
This is how you "transform" an Android backup file into a regular gzipped tarball.
The packagecloud people (which I didn't know about until Ted Unangst linked to one of their recent sycall performance blog posts) have a debian-howto category on their blog with some posts that seem rather useful.


My project is about building a spacecraft that can send to smaller probes to an asteroid to study it's properties. Further more the bigger spacecraft will have a SAA which means a Sample analysis on asteroid so when the 2 smaller spacecraft are done they will fly back to the bigger spacecraft for analysis. This will benfit in a way scientists can find new minerals and rocks that may help mankind and humanity.
This project is solving the ASTEX - Asteroid Exploration challenge.
My project aims to achieve how scientists can make use of new materiel's for mankind. This will be achieved by making a spacecraft that is carrying 2 smaller probes that will dig into an asteroid and study the properties of the rock and/or metals.

Those with ancestry in Cabo Verde are known as "Cabo Verdean Argentines" that live in Argentina. There were roughly 8,000 back in the 1980 census. Other sources put the number of descendants of Cabo Verdean immigrants in Argentina at between 12,000 and 15,000. Of this number, only about 300 are believed to be African-born.[i] Before Cabo Verde gained its independence in 1975, its immigrant population was counted among the Portuguese. In the late 19th century, a limited number of people from Cabo Verde arrived in Argentina. Between the 1920s and WWII, there was a sharp rise in the population. The most significant number of Cabo Verdean immigrants arrived between 1927 and 1933 and again after 1946. Famine, a lack of employment possibilities, and resource depletion forced them to leave Cabo Verde.[ii]
El Gráfico magazine covers.
The majority came from the islands of São Vicente, Santo Antão, and São Nicolau, with some also coming from Fogo and Brava. Buenos Aires Province is home to the largest concentration of Cabo Verdeans and people of Cabo Verdean descent in all of Argentina. Since the majority of them were skilled mariners and fishers, they were typically located near water and found work in ports. They anchored at places such as the South Dock, Ensenada, Rosario, Bahia Blanca, and San Nicolás de Los Arroyos. A large number of them found employment in the Argentine Navy's Sea Fleet, Merchant Navy, and Fluvial Fleet at the YPF dockyards. [iii] In the largely European-Argentine society, there were many people who had to deal with discrimination. For more than sixty years, two groups have been dedicated to providing mutual support and fostering cultural interchange. The early 1930s saw the establishment of the Society of Mutual Aid, often known as The Cabo Verdean Union of South Dock. Around the same time, the Cabo Verdean Sport and Culture Club of Ensenada came into being.
It's about time we took a moment to reflect on one of the few Afro-Argentines in soccer history. One of the best defenders in South American soccer history, José Manuel Ramos Delgado, passed away on December 3, 2010, in Buenos Aires.[iv] He was revered as a god by River Plate fans despite never having won a championship during his six years with the mighty club and drawing none other than Pelé's Santos FC, where he was also magnificent when he was thirty-two years old. He was a calm leader and a pristine defender who captained the national team in sixteen of the twenty-five games he appeared in.[v] Quilmes, Argentina, is the place of origin for Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado. His father, born in São Vicente, Cabo Verde, gave him automatic membership in Argentina's Cabo Verdean community. During the 1956 season, Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado made his professional debut with Lanús. Quickly, he was able to prove himself and transfer to River Plate, where he spent seven seasons and 172 appearances. Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado started working at Banfield in 1966. After a brief stint, he transferred to Santos FC in Brazil, where he played during the club's glory years alongside legends like Pelé, Coutinho, and José Macia. He made 324 appearances for Santos and scored once in his career. In his final year as a professional, Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado suited up for Portuguesa Santista. When he was thirty-nine years old, he called it quits.[vi]
Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado managed to make his debut for the national squad in early 1958 and was summoned to the World Cup in Sweden despite having not participated in the qualifiers. He sat out of the Cup, sparing himself the humiliation of watching the "hermanos" get knocked out of the competition in the first round after a 6-1 loss to Czechoslovakia. Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado, also in 1962, traveled to the World Cup being hosted in Chile. His debut was a 3-1 loss to England, but coach Juan Carlos Lorenzo did not start using him until then. The defender did his part: Argentina didn't concede goals from Hungary in the second game but didn't score either. A new early elimination was confirmed when the score remained at 0-0. The turnaround occurred in 1964 and 1965, when Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado, or "El Negro," became a regular in the starting lineup. He was the captain in the Albiceleste's most major achievement until the 1978 Cup. Argentinian won the 1964 Nations Cup with a 3-0 victory over Brazil in São Paulo.[vii] Even though he played in every qualifying match for the 1966 World Cup, coach Juan Carlos Lorenzo, who took over the national team on the eve of the World Cup, ignored him and only used him in one of the final pre-World Cup tests, an unofficial friendly against Cagliari on June 1, 1966.
Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado accomplished all of his career highlights while wearing the white jersey of Santos FC. He took home the Paulista title four times (1967, 1968, 1969, and 1973) and the "Torneio Roberto Gomes Pedrosa" trophy once (1968). Following his playing career's conclusion, Jose Manuel Ramos Delgado served as the manager of Brazilian club Santos for a time before returning to Argentina, where he managed a number of different teams, including Belgrano, Deportivo Maip, Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, Estudiantes de La Plata, River Plate, Talleres de Córdoba, Platense, All Boys, and his hometown club Quilmes. He also functioned as the manager of the Peruvian team Universitario. Soon after, he went back to Santos to work as a youth team coach, where he shaped the careers of future stars like Robinho and Diego. After completing training at the Circle of Sports Journalism in 1994, he began working as a sports pundit for a number of broadcast outlets.[viii]

In 1787, the Island of Boa Vista became a fiefdom for Aniceto António Ferreira after he was named Captain-General and Commander [Capitão-Mor e Comandante] of the island, Aniceto António Ferreira was a noble and he was very close to the Royal Court of Portugal. Aniceto António Ferreira was baptized on April 21, 1753, in the town of Nelas, in the Parish of Senhorim, which is part of the County of Nelas, in the district of Viseu, in the country of Portugal. His full name at birth was Aniceto António Álvares Ferreira Mendes. His parents were António Manuel Álvares [b. 4.21.1721] born in the village of Oliveirinha, Oliveira do Conde, county Carregal do Sal, district of Viseu and baptized 2.5 miles away in the church of São Pedro in Oliveira do Conde, and Maria Josefa Ferreira Mendes born and baptized in the town of Melo, in the county of Gouveia, in the district of Guarda, in the church of Santo Isidoro. Aniceto was the paternal grandson of João Gomes Álvares [Died on 5.31.1689] and Maria Fernandes [died a widow, in Fiais, on 9.29.1728], and paternal great-grandson of Simão Gomes and Isabela da Fonseca, maternal grandson of Francisco Ferreira and Josefa Rodriguez Mendes.
Aniceto António Ferreira was married to Felippa Ignez Ferreira da Graça e Silva a native of the island of Boa Vista, Cabo Verde daughter of João da Silva Soares and Ignez da Graça [both born in Portugal]. Aniceto António Ferreira was the father of Maria Josefa Ferreira; Euphemia Ferreira; Apolónia Ferreira; Júlio Cândido Ferreira and Margarida Ferreira. In 1793, one of his daughters married Manuel António Martins [1771?-1845], a Galician shipmaster who had arrived the previous year with casks of wine from Faial in the Azores.
Aniceto António Ferreira Alvares Mendes [1753-1830]
Aniceto had 7 siblings, an older sister five younger sisters and one younger brother. On May 21st of 1769, at the age of sixteen his father passes away and making him the de facto head of the family. It is believed that the pressure of earning a living for the family will soon after force him to travel to Cabo Verde in order to try to earn a living for his family.
Aniceto António Ferreira arrived in Boa Vista during the period of domination of the Pará and Maranhão Grain Company, between 1756 and 1770. He was actively interested in the economic development of Cabo Verde but especially the island of Boa Vista. In correspondents with the Portuguese Government he mentions that in 1774 at the age of twenty-one, he travelled from Boa Vista to Sal with over one hundred men in an expedition to collect archil. In a document found in the Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino. Cabo Verde, Caixa 42, doc. 59, he describes his voyages around the Islands of Cabo Verde and the agricultural and civil status of the islands.
During this time the Island of Boa Vista had two parishes; one on the village of São Roque, located on the Ribeira of Rabil and the other is called São João; the Island exported livestock but the main export was salt.He was attached to whaling activities, he was also a businessman, farmer, cattleman, and he also was a person of great initiative.
Aniceto António Ferreira was captain of militia, Captain-General, Judge and overseer of the Royal Plantation [Estate] in Boa Vista. He reached the infantry rank of Colonel and retired with the rank of Brigadier of the Royal Army of Portugal by decree of June 12, 1819. In 1803, he became a member of the Cavaleiro da Ordem de Cristo [Order of Christ]; he also received Carta de Brasão de Armas from D. João VI [letter of the Coat of Arms from King John VI].
In 1830, Aniceto António Ferreira dies on the island of Boa Vista and is buried there. One can find descendants of Aniceto António Ferreira in the families Ferreira, Martins, Nobre, Pires Ferreira, Lobo, Neves, Ferro and Vera Cruz of Cabo Verde.

General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca 1863-1942
When we think of Cabo Verdean military leaders or commanders we seem to not get passed Amilcar Cabral, Pedro Pires, Aristides Perreira and some of the other leaders of the Independence movement. But there were a handful of pre-indepence era military men and one of them was General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca.
General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca's baptismal record, second entry on the left hand side.
General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca was born on December 13, 1863, a native of Curral do Coculi in the Parish of Santo Crucifixo, on the Island of Santo Antão to Manoel Gomes da Fonseca and Julia Juanna Fortes. At the age of seven Viriato Gomes da Fonseca move from Santo Antão to the capital of the Portuguese Empire. In 1897, After completing his studies at the War College the young lieutenant Viriato returns to Cape Verde with the fixed aim to help in the development of the islands. Viriato was blessed with extraordinary speaking skills and communication skills, he was also very charismatic.
In 1907, he was appointed commander of a battery in an expeditionary mission to Guinea. he fought, at the time, in what was called the 'pacification wars' against the indigenous peoples in the struggle against the Portuguese presence in that territory.
After returning to Lisbon, Viriato was promoted to Major. Back in Cape Verde, Major Viriato Gomes da Fonseca was given the position of Director of Public Works and Head of Surveying.
Connecting the water supply to the village of Ponta do Sol, the study of the Levadas [an irrigation channel or aqueduct] and a topographical survey of the Concelho do Paul, are the most essential works completed by Viriato Gomes da Fonseca on the island of Santo Antão. He also surveyed Montado Real on the Island of Fogo and also had plans for the port on the island of Brava.
Viriato Gomes da Fonseca was also Military Commander of São Vicente, Director of the Municipality of the island of Santo Antão, December 1910 to November 1912 and during the same period, he served also as President of the Municipal Commission of that island.
By 1919, the people of the islands recognized his expertise in the works carried out by Viriato Gomes da Fonseca and they were aware of his great patriotism and love for the homeland, the people entrusted him with the task of representing the Province of Cabo Verde in Parliament. this is how he entered politics and became what today we would call a congressman for the Partido Republicano Português (PRP), from 1919 to 1922 and for the Partido Republicano Constituinte, from 1922 to 1925.
At 63, he was promoted to general and provided services at the Institute Geagráfico and Cadastral, with several studies of his own on the registration of land ownership published by the institute and the Military Magazine. General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca was the only black man who attained the Portuguese army rank of general and probably of any other European army.
General Viriato Gomes da Fonseca was offered the position of Governor General of Angola, but the general turned down the position. He preferred waiting for the position of Governor General of Cabo Verde but that position never came to fruition.
From his marriage to Cesaria da Conceição Machado Fonseca, born in Lisbon, were born ten children: Viriato, Manuel Augusto, John, Julia, Emma, Celisa, Peter, Lucete and Alberto.
General Viriato da Fonseca and his wife Cesária da Conceição da Fonseca

The story of Manuel António Martins [1771?-1845] in Cabo Verde begins in 1793, when at the age of twenty-one as master of a vessel laden with casks of wine from Faial in the Azores. The vessel was the Sumaca, she was a sloop which is a small one-masted ship. The Sumaca was owned by a Mr. Borralho, allegedly the vessel was damaged in a storm off the Canary Islands and blown southward to Cabo Verde. Martins made a quick getaway with the vessel and cargo and used his gains to commence an inter-island commerce in the archipelago, an enterprise in which he was remarkably successful.
In 1793, Martins married a daughter of Aniceto António Ferreira, the Azorean Capitão-mor [commandant] of Boa Vista. The couple had sixteen children, seven sons and nine daughters. Their sons became involved in their father's multifarious shipping, slave-trading, and political activities. Meanwhile, the sons of the archipelago's morgados competed to marry Martins's daughters and female relatives.
Manuel António Martins was born in the city of Braga, Portugal to João António Martinez Cosqueiro [from Spain] and Bernarda de Autrello [Italian], they migrated from Asturias, Spain to Braga where Manuel António Martins was born.
Manuel António Martins was Governor of Cabo Verde [1834-1835], Archeiro-Mor of the Royal House, Consul and Vice-Consul of the United States, owner of the Salinas [Salt beds], monopoly on the export of Urzella. He ordered the construction of the tunnel to access the Salinas and the first railway line in Portuguese Africa on the Island of Sal. As Governor he established the piping of fresh water to the City of Praia and also to the village of Nova Sintra, Brava. He became the wealthiest and most prominent man in Cabo Verde. He was the founder of Pedra de Lume and the town of Santa Maria and also populated the islands of Sal and São Vicente. He also built the Fort of Duke of Bragança that is located in the islet in front of the City of Sal Rei in Boa Vista. What is written above is not the entire story of Manuel António Martins, there are a lot more details to how this man came to dominate the economic and political system of Cabo Verde.
Portugal emerged from the Napoleonic Wars virtually bankrupt, with its ruler and court living in exile in Brazil. During the decades following, Portugal experienced chronic economic and political crises that distracted attention from colonial affairs, especially regarding such unprofitable colonies as the province of Cabo Verde. Once Britain closed the Senegal and Gambia rivers to slave vessels, slave caravans from the interior of western Africa rerouted south to the Casamance, Cacheu, Geba, and Grande rivers, where Portuguese, Luso-Africans, and Cabo Verdeans prospered as middlemen supplying slave vessels of many nations. Everywhere in western Africa, legitimate traders colluded with slavers. Cabo Verde became the advance base for illicit commerce with western Africa, both for slavers and for legitimate traders engaged in smuggling goods at colonial settlements. Notoriously prominent in the slave trade, legitimate trade, and other lucrative enterprises was Manuel António Martins.
In Sal Rei, Martins dispensed fabricated Portuguese vessel registries and other documents to slavers seeking to avoid capture by the Royal Navy. He colluded with colonial officials and with merchants and political influentials in Portugal. The illegal slave trade flourished to the profit of Martins and corrupt colonial officials, while the province was starved of revenues to support the colony's civil, military, and ecclesiastical establishments and maintain and repair public buildings, forts, and other government properties.
During the 1810s and 1820s, São Tiago had adequate rainfall, and Praia's convenient location and inexpensive provisions made it a popular revictualing port of call for merchantmen, whalers, and other vessels plying the South Atlantic and for slavers, legitimate traders, and men-of-war bound for West Africa. American seafarers were prominent among the slavers and legitimate traders who visited Cabo Verde in growing numbers.
In December 1818, another player arrives in Cabo Verde Samuel Hodges Jr., of Stoughton, Massachusetts, settled at Praia as a commission merchant and U.S. consul, and except for brief visits back to the United States, he stayed there with his family until his death in 1827.
Soon after arriving in Cabo Verde, Hodges became associated with Martins as a business partner and invaluable mediator with Portuguese officials. As the U.S. Consul he began to exercise the functions of U.S. consul, including appointing vice-consuls for several islands. Foremost among them was Manuel A. Martins, whom Hodges made the U.S. vice-consul for Boa Vista. With Martins and Hodges working together, European and Eurafrican traders living in western Africa dispatched vessels to Praia to obtain American tobacco, lumber, and other products and arrange for American vessels to deliver cargoes at French and British colonial ports in collusion with local officials or at places of rendezvous; later, these goods would be smuggled into colonial settlements or carried up rivers aboard the schooners, sloops, and canoes that linked western Africa's markets.
The Portuguese government's lack of commitment and capability to suppress the slave trade or punish corrupt colonial officials was especially manifested in the governorship of António Pusich (1818–1821) of Italian nationality, born in the "Republic of Ragusa," who exceeded most governors of Cabo Verde in enterprise and initiative. Pusich married Mrs. Anna Maria Isabel Nunes, a Portuguese aristocrat, and secured Portuguese citizenship and an officer's commission in the Portuguese navy. From 1801 to 1811, he and his family resided at Ribeira Brava on the island of São Nicolau in a post especially created for him: naval superintendent for Cabo Verde, independent of the authority of governors and colonial officials.
In May 1819, five months after assuming the governorship, Pusich established a fishing enterprise, with Manuel António Martins and some of his associates on Boa Vista. The funds, however, were soon squandered, promoting hostility between Governor Pusich and Martins. Hostilities between Pusich and Martins escalated again in 1820 when the governor accused Martins of scheming to sell the islands of Sal and São Vicente to three Englishmen trading at Bathurst: Thomas Barber, William Waterman, and Edward Bocock. Likewise allegedly interested was a Frenchman named Dèves whose trading establishment at Saint-Louis developed into the firm of Maison Dèves-Chaumet. Manuel António Martins retaliated the following year by exploiting to his advantage the political transformations in Portugal: in May 1821, he incited a mob action in Praia, joined by soldiers in the garrison, that removed Pusich from the governorship. Pusich's downfall was a delayed consequence of the 1820 liberal revolution in Portugal that had been galvanized by economic, political, and nationalistic grievances.
Always poised to seize an opportunity for self-advancement, on March 21, 1821—seven months after the Porto garrison mutinied- Manuel António Martins organized a demonstration at Sal Rei on behalf of liberals and against Governor Pusich's "despotic rule." João Cabral da Cunha Goodolphim joined in the demonstration despite having been appointed Boa Vista's commandant by Pusich in May 1820 following the retirement of Martins's father-in-law, Aniceto António Ferreira. In appointing Goodolphim the commandant of Boa Vista, Pusich doubtless expected him to curtail Martins's influence. Goodolphim had previously served as interim commander of Cacheu from 1815 to 1818, and during that time, he probably collaborated with Martins in slaving ventures, just as he would do while commandant of Cacheu from 1823 to 1826.
The unprecedented political activism at Boa Vista orchestrated by Martins encouraged similar initiatives by the inhabitants of other islands. Growing unrest culminated on May 1, 1821, when a mass turnout of Praia's population, joined by soldiers in the garrison, deposed Governor Pusich. With his family, he took refuge on the island of Maio. Pusich was supplanted by a junta provisoria (provisional council), which administered the archipelago for the next year and a half (from May 1821 to January 1823). Martins joined the junta and skillfully increased his influence.
Over decades, Manuel António Martins increased the salt production of Ilha do Sal. In 1796, he dispatched slaves to create salinas and dig wells to sustain themselves and goatherds on the waterless, windswept wasteland. In 1805, Governor António Coutinho de Lencastre appointed Martins as Sal's administrator, and in 1808, he granted him the privilege of collecting customs duties. During the 1820s, Martins undertook to exploit the salt-producing potential of Pedra Lume, Sal's extinct 406-meter-high volcanic cone.
The salt was transported in carts propelled by sails along rail tracks to be loaded on vessels at a pier several kilometers away. Donkeys pulled the empty rail carts back to Pedra Lume. In September 1829, Martins received authorization to transport 100 to 150 slaves from Bissau and Cacheu to labor at Sal's salinas and to engage in fishing to feed the workers. In 1834, he founded the settlement of Santa Maria das Dores (Saint Mary of Sorrows) which was also known as Porto Martins on the southern tip of the island.
In December 1833, Martins's close friend Francisco Simões Margiochi, the minister of marine, appointed him prefect [prefeito] of the province of Cabo Verde and Guiné, the civilian title being a liberal innovation replacing military governorships. Martins also benefited from lobbying on his behalf by other individuals whose influence he had cultivated for years. Manuel António Martins was the only person to serve as a prefeito, while the prefect Manuel António Martins attempted to move the capital from Praia to Sal Rei but he was not successful. The government abolished the title in April 1835, instead dispatching governors-general who exercised both military and civil authority. Martins continued to prosper in numerous enterprises, including slave trading, and he maintained surpassing influence and powers of intimidation concerning Cabo Verde's inhabitants. After his death in July 1845, his business affairs were carried on by his widow, children, and proliferating descendants.

The Portuguese Republic was established as a result of a coup d'état that was organized by the Portuguese Republican Party on October 5th, 1910, which deposed the constitutional monarchy and a Republican Regime is installed. The Portuguese citizens were not pleased with the royal family's expenses, the power of the Church, the political and social instability, the system of alternating power of the two political parties and also an apparent inability to adapt to modern times.
The revolution started on the night of October 3rd, after the Republican leaders heard of the assassination of one of their own Dr. Miguel Bombarda. Due to this incident the Republican leaders had an emergency meeting, some among the leadership were against the meeting and wanted to postpone their plan of action because of the strong military presence in Lisbon. The strong military presence was due to the state visit of President Hermes da Fonseca of Brazil and also because of the rumors of an imminent coup d'état.
Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis was against postponing the revolution and he insisted for it to take place. Cândido dos Reis thought it would be madness to allow the Government time to order the war ships out of the Tagus. Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis convinced his fellow Republicans by saying, "If you will not go out, I will go out alone with the sailors. I shall have the honor of getting myself shot by my comrades of the army." Dos Reis continued with, "The Revolution will not be delayed: follow me, if you want. If there is one that fulfills its duty, this one will be me." ["A Revolução não será adiada: sigam-me, se quiserem. Havendo um só que cumpra o seu dever, esse único serei eu."
The thoroughness with which the Republican party was organized says much for the practical ability of its leaders. The moving spirits in the central committee were Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis, Affonso Costa, João Chagas, and Dr. Miguel Bombarda. Simões Raposo spoke for the Freemasons; the Carbonaria Portugueza, a powerful secret society, was represented by Machado dos Santos, an officer in the navy. The Republican party also had a separate finance committee, and funds were ample.
The revolution was to commence with a signal of three cannon shots, but it is unclear if the signal was given but at the appointed hour mutinies broke out in several military barracks. A small group of armed civilians and mixed company of soldiers attempted an attack upon the Necessidades Palace, to demand the abdication of the King; but they were repelled back to the rallying point of the Republican forces, the Rotunda, at the upper end of the Avenida da Liberdade.
While Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis was on the wharf preparing to undertake command of the naval side of the revolution, he was approached by an unidentified person and was told that the revolt was crushed and all was lost. After hearing this message, Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis headed to his sister's house, and the next morning his body was found in Arroios with a bullet through his brain. It is believed that in desperation Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis had committed suicide. If he had delayed his suicide by a couple of hours, he would have seen his dream of a Republican Portuguese State become a reality. Today many towns, cities and avenues are named after this great patriot and founding father of the Republican Portuguese State.
This ardent patriot and leader of the revolution is listed as being born in Lisbon on January 16th, 1852 and at the age of 17 joined the Portuguese Navy as a volunteer. By September of 1909, Carlos Cândido dos Reis had been promoted to Vice-Admiral in the Portuguese Army. He had also joined the Republican Party sometime in 1908. He was the son of António dos Reis, from Caldas da Rainha, Portugal and Matilde Espirito Santo Nencette from Fernão Nunes, Brava. His maternal grandparents were António Elisário Nencette from Portugal and Anna da Conceição Armas de Burgo from Brava. According to his living descendants Carlos Cândido dos Reis was born in Brava and emigrated to Portugal while still a young child, where he would be baptized. Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis is related to the Burgo and Azevedo families of Cape Verde.
The other Cape Verdean that took part in the Republican revolution in Portugal on October 5th, 1910 was José Barbosa. Mr. Barbosa was born on the Island of Fogo in 1869. He was a journalist by training and a strong republican, he spread the Republican ideals in all of
the newspapers that he contributed to. José Barbosa was persecuted for his Republican belief, which let to him fleeing to Spain in 1894, then France and later Brazil.
In 1908, he joined the central committee of the Republican Portuguese Party and actively participated in the preparations for the coup d' état of October 5th, 1910. After the Introduction of the Republic, the provisional government nominated José Barbosa for the position of Secretary of the Interior. In 1920, during the government of Domingos Pereira, José Barbosa was appointed Minister of the Colonies.
On September 4th, 1923 José Barbosa passed away in the capital of Portugal.
José Barbosa
There is a strong possibility that if Vice-Admiral Carlos Cândido dos Reis had survived, he could have been the first president of the newly formed Republican Portuguese State. What would/could have been the impact of a Cape Verdean born president of Portugal on the colony of Cape Verde and some of the other Portuguese colonies? One can only ponder.

In honor of Armistice/ Veterans Day this post will honor Cape Verdean veterans of American Wars.
The Cape Verdean community here in the States should be very proud of all the Patriots it has produced and lost in every American war since the beginning; fighting for its independence, it's struggle to remain a unified nation and for the abolition of slavery. We have fought with her against fascists and saved millions from death camps all over Europe. We were there in Korea and Vietnam and every other time Americans have been called to serve this country, including Iraq and Afghanistan.
Here is a partially list of the thousands of Cape Verdeans that have served this great nation (info provided by www.thecreolagenealogist.wordpress.com/2012/07/03/cape-verdeans-and-americas-independance-day-just-as-american-as-apple-pie :

Today's post is dedicated to every Cape Verdean Women that has lived or that will ever live. During a time when being a woman meant that you had to rights and everything you owed would belong to your husband [once you married], in Cape Verde we had some women breaking ground hundreds of years before the feminist movement.
The second donatary*** of Ribeira Grande [Southern Santiago], which today is called Cidade Velha, was BRANCA de AGUIAR the daughter of the founder of Ribeira Grande Antonio de Noli. Branca de Aguiar inherited everything that belonged to her father including his titles; she was in charge from 8 Apr 1497 – 27 Oct 1526. She was married to Jorge Correia a Portuguese nobleman, who became co-ruler.
Another woman breaking the norms was MARIA CORREIA, the Captain of Boa Vista from 1542 to 15??. Maria Correia most likely inherited the Captaincy, as man with her last name held the title of Captain of Boa Vista from the 3rd of January 1505 until 1542
The final women on the list is FILIPA DA SILVA [b. 1550 – d. 1590] the 4th countess of Portalegre, she was the donatary of São Vicente and São Nicolau from 1580 until her death in 1590.
***A Donatário, a Portuguese word roughly meaning endowed or donated, sometimes anglicized as Donatary, was a private person (often a nobleman) who the Crown bestowed a considerable piece of land (called a donataria) to administer.
Normally, the donatário was the recipient of a Captaincy, a territorial division and land grant, within Portuguese colonies.
The donatário was obligated to govern their territories under specific terms: in exchange for the grant, the donatário received tax immunities, but was also responsible for promoting and settling new residents to his territory, establishing churches (following the Catholic faith), protect them from frequent pirate attacks and promoting agriculture and commerce.

The connection between Cape Verde and the U.S goes back many years, but not many people know that the connection goes back to a time before what today are the United States of America existed.
One of the hundreds of battles that took place during the War for American independence, when 13 fledgling colonies were battling the mighty British empire for independence took place in the waters surrounding Cape Verde Islands.
On April 16th, 1781 a British Naval squadron under the command of Commodore George Johnstone stopped over in Porto Praya (now Praia), Cape Verde on the way to the Cape of Good hope to attack and take it away from under Dutch control came under attack by a French Naval squadron under command of the French Admiral Bailli de Suffren that was headed towards the Cape of Good Hope to assist the Dutch in the defense of the colony against the British.
The French surprised the British and they were able to come out victorious. The British had 183 casualties of which, 36 were killed and 147 wounded.
This naval encounter became known as the Battle of Porto Praya.

Q: How should I allocate/populate/update memory on GPU for different type of scene objects? I'm trying to write my first DX12 app. I have no previous experience in DX11. I would like to display some rigid and some soft objects. Without textures for now. So I need to place into GPU some vertex/index buffers which I will never change later and some which I will change. And the scene per se isn't static, so some new objects can appear and some can vanish.
How should I allocate/populate/update memory on GPU for it? I would like to see high level overview easy to read and understand, not real code. Hope the question isn't too broad.

A: You said you are new to DirectX, i will strongly recommend you to stay away from DX12 and stick with DX11. DX12 is only useful for people that are already Expert ( with a big E ) and project that has to push very far or have edge cases for a feature in DX12 not possible in DX11.
But anyway, on DX12, as an example to initialize a buffer, you have to create instances of ID3D12Resource. You will need two, one in the an upload heap and one in the default heap. You fill the first one on the CPU using Map. Then you need to use a command list to copy to the second one. Of course, you have to manage the resource state of your resource with barriers ( copy destination, shader resource, ... ). You need then to execute the command list on the command queue. You also need to add a fence to listen the gpu for completion before you can destroy the resource in the upload heap.
On DX11, you call ID3D11Device::CreateBuffer, by providing the description struct with a SRV binding flag and the pointer to the cpu data you want to put in it… Done
It is slightly more complex for texture as you deal with memory layout. So, as i state above, you should focus on DX11, it is not degrading at all, both have their roles.

Addicted to Hope: The Qult of Qanon
Nov 15, 2020 | Esoteric
Here's a scenario.
You're part of an organization that wants to steer the world towards an Orwellian type society where you control every aspect of human life. But there's one problem. A growing number of people are awakening to the reality of how the world is run and they don't like it. These people are intelligent, have the ability to think critically and are a threat to your operation.
Here's one solution. You use your knowledge of predictive programming and psychological manipulation to craft an intelligence operation designed to distract and misdirect. These people are smart. More mainstream media propaganda and censorship is only going to fuel their suspicions.
You assume the identity of the "good guys" and feed people just enough truth to keep them hooked. You ease people's anxieties by providing them with the hope they so desperately want, and you make their lives easier by offering to do all the critical thinking for them.
After a while, your reach grows, and more and more people begin following your intel until eventually, the operation gains its own momentum. Now your job becomes easier because instead of working to convince people you're legit, others do it for you.
This is not an article I ever thought I would write. It's not even an article I particularly want to write. In fact, I'd never heard of Q up until a few months ago. So why am I writing about it?
After a few months of tentatively following the Q movement, I've been quite disturbed by what I've seen.
Don't get me wrong, the Q movement isn't filled with nutcases. Quite the contrary. There are some very smart and very illustrious people who are completely and totally wrapped up in the Q narrative.
What disturbed me is the faith and conviction that so many people have towards Q, despite the lack of convincing evidence. What else has disturbed me? The hypocrisy.
Many Q followers constantly lambaste people for not thinking critically but then fail to realise that, by blindly following Q, they are no better than those that they condemn.
What Is Qanon?
Qanon is a movement that began in 2017 when anonymous posts began appearing on the 4Chan message board. The posts then moved to 8Chan and now they appear on 8Kun. The poster signs itself as 'Q' and alludes to being a high-level military insider with direct connections to President Trump.
The main theme of the Q movement is this. There is a secret, silent war being waged between the 'alliance' (Q, good guys) and the deep state (a global cabal that controls banking and world governments through the use of blackmail and satanic rituals) with President Trump leading the charge.
Q's posts (also called 'drops') are vague and often need to be 'decoded' by those who have learned to understand the language of Q. Since 2017, when the Q drops began, there have been thousands of posts. And during this time Q has grown into a global movement, garnering the interest and support of many thousands of individuals.
Qanon: a Belief System
At its core, Qanon is based on faith. It's a belief system.
"Trust the plan."
That is Q's motto.
There are clear parallels between Qanon and organised religion. Q is like God, President Trump is the Messiah (think Jesus, Mohammed, etc), and the people that 'decode' and relay Q's messages are the priests.
There is no evidence to suggest that Q represents a group of 'white hats' inside the military-political complex who are working to overthrow the cabal. In fact, besides the encoded posts that appear on 8Kun, there is no evidence to suggest that Q even exists as a real entity.
Many people claim that Q is a group of people, all of which work closely with President Trump. Yet this is also a theory, a belief.
There are well-known people who have built up huge followings just by preaching about and interpreting Q's drops.
Many of these people claim to have 'insider information' about Q and access to various 'secret sources' who feed them information from the top. These sources are never revealed of course, and you are simply expected to believe it's all true. There's that word again. Belief.
But even if such sources were real, who's to say they aren't purposefully feeding them misinformation?
Just as Christians believe the word of God, no matter how insane it seems, so do Qanon followers believe the words of Q and its apostles.
As I stated before, I have been following the Qanon movement from afar for the last few months. During that time I have heard many outlandish claims, none of which have come true.
Some of these include mass arrests of influential figures, the institution of a gold-backed financial system, the declassification of intelligence reports, and the release of extra-terrestrial technologies. I have heard all of this. In fact, many of these predictions have been floating around for years now.
Q, along with those who claim to have 'inside sources' are constantly assuring people that the arrests are coming and that the plan is about to come to fruition. Yet, it never does. The deadline is constantly pushed back. "Next month it's coming". "okay, next week it's finally going to happen!" "Definitely sometime before the end of the year."
I hate to say it, but this is classic cult behaviour.
Distract them with Hope
Catherine Austin Fitts from the Solari Report summed up Qanon is two words.
"Hope porn."
The whole purpose of the Q movement is to convince people that, no matter what happens, they should "trust the plan" because everything is going to work out.
In a world that is full of darkness, a little bit of hope goes a long way.
In fact, I would argue that the reason people follow Q with such resolve is because they have become addicted to the hope and positivity of Q's message.
There's nothing wrong with hope or positivity when it's based on fact. But when it comes to "the plan", not even the most devoted Qanon disciple could tell you exactly what that is.
I wouldn't hesitate to call Qanon a marketing ploy.
The pseudo-military coding used in the drops, the use of known marketing tactics and proven copywriting formulas to grab people's attention. Whoever, or whatever is behind Q, is clever. Very clever.
Here's a recent Q drop. There are a few things to note here about how Q writes.
First off, note how Q constantly asks questions but never answers them. This is a classic copywriting trick. Questions are a proven way to engage and involve your readers. The use of questions in written works is a method of creating a rapport with the reader – getting the reader to like you.
In fact, psychology has shown that people like people who ask questions and this also translates into writing. Q's use of open-ended questions is a method of keeping people involved and directing attention.
In other words, Q uses questions to direct (and therefore misdirect) people's focus. And why would you want to keep people focused on something specific? To distract them from what's really going on.
Q also uses a lot of imperatives. In other words, Q gives commands. Again, this is a classic marketing trick. You may recognise some of the following imperative slogans used in advertising:
"Think different."
"Taste the rainbow."
"Build back better."
And of course, Q's "trust the plan."
Q also uses statements that are aimed at reassuring people. How do you keep people calm during such a difficult time? How do you keep people's focus and attention on you instead of the Orwellian plan that's unfolding around them?
You reassure them with catchy phrases like "Nothing can stop what is coming."
But has anyone ever asked the question: "What IS coming?" or "What IS the plan?"
Dumbing down the intelligent, making people passive
It seems likely that the real purpose of Q is to stifle critical thinking and make people passive.
By feeding people just enough truth to keep them satisfied, they are less likely to spend time researching things themselves.
There is little need to do your own research or employ your critical thinking faculties when you know there is an elite group of insiders doing that for you.
What happens when you believe there's a gang of good guys who have a rock-solid plan to defeat the deep state and bring harmony and peace to the world?
You stop rebelling, you stop fighting. You become passive.
This is a classic military tactic. In fact, Sun Tzu says in the Art of War that "the supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting."
That is the goal of Q – to subdue people with hope. This way they won't react to the atrocities around them. They won't fight back against the agenda. And by the time they realise what has happened, it will be too late.
Q often makes mistakes and incorrect predictions. Yet, instead of questioning this, Qanon followers claim that this is done on purpose to 'misdirect' the enemy.
It's a fair argument, I won't lie. But it also creates a problem. It means that Q always has an out. Q can never be held accountable for being wrong or misleading people. How convenient.
Qanon followers are constantly finding patterns where non exist. In fact, we all do this to some extent. It's called 'apophenia'. Q relies on this to keep the illusion going.
I have witnessed many Qanon followers on YouTube analysing President Trump's tweets for 'coded messages' that relate to Q. They then come up with elaborate and far-fetched explanations for what these might mean.
What Q doesn't talk about
Qanon followers are enamored by what Q says, but very rarely do they consider what Q doesn't say.
For example, if Q really were part of a high-level inside group, why wouldn't they have said something about an upcoming fake pandemic?
It's very clear that, contrary to what many Qanon supporters claim, the banks are gaining more and more power. The COVID scamdemic has destroyed small businesses and forced the population into a massive debt trap, the likes of which have never been seen before.
But Q is silent.
What about when care homes were locked down and the elderly were being culled? Was that part of the plan?
What about the use of high-dose HQC, toxic antiviral drugs and ventilators that resulted in thousands of excess deaths in the US and Europe?
Again, Q was silent.
What about the current rollout of dangerous vaccines, COVID 'passports', 5G, and Bill Gates' patents for a body-activated cryptocurrency system?
Crickets.
We're watching lockdown-induced genocide along with the steady deterioration of human rights, freedoms, and finances. But Qanon followers continue to believe that it's "all part of the plan."
When will the lightbulb turn on? Will it?
What Is Q Really?
The truth is that nobody knows.
Bernard Grover makes a convincing case that Q is a military intelligence PsyOp that's being run by the GEC (Global Engagement Center) which was established by the Defense Authorization Act of 2017, shortly before Q began posting.
Of course, it's impossible to verify this theory, but we can apply the principle of Occam's Razor to get a clearer idea. Occam's razor is a problem-solving aid that states that the simplest explanation is probably the right one.
So, which is simpler, a or b?
a. Q represents a high-level group at the top of the military and political complex. They have a direct link to President Trump and have chosen him to spearhead the charge against the deep state. This group of 'white hats' has been waging a secret, silent war against the cabal. They have chosen to reveal details about this war to the public via an online message board, frequented by delinquents and trolls. Despite the continued march toward an Orwellian, globalist society and recently perpetrated mass genocide, it's actually all part of a secret plan to usher in a new age of harmony and peace.
b. Q is an intelligence operation being run with advanced computer algorithms. Its purpose is to manipulate people's perceptions, create passivity, and distract people from the truth.
It seems quite clear that the second explanation is much simpler than the first.
Why Qanon Appeals to People
Simply put, Qanon appeals to the ego. The ego is an evolutionary construct formed out of the need to survive. The ego is our sense of "I".
The ego/mind is composed of an endless stream of opinions, assumptions, attitudes, viewpoints and prevailing social personalities.
Qanon makes people feel as if they have secret knowledge that others don't and are, therefore 'special'. This appeals to the narcissistic core of the ego that always wants to be 'better' than other people or feel unique in some way.
The ego is attracted by conundrums that have little value. Qanon feeds the ego's appetite for wonder and intrigue. Qanon followers are welcomed into an "inner circle" where they feel as if they are part of a grand plan and this feeds the ego's sense of pride.
The ego struggles to see the forest from the trees and instead gets stuck contemplating problems, irrelevancies, and diversions, all of which Q provides.
The ego enjoys labels. It stubbornly takes stances such as 'this is bad and this is good'. It is always asking questions and seeking answers. The ego is constantly embroiled in drama, which it loves.
Q supplies the ego with the excitement, drama and sense of safety that it so desires.
Dr. David Hawkins was a renowned spiritual teacher and psychiatrist. He said of the ego:
"To the prideful, narcissistic ('sensitive') ego, responsibility is 'uncomfortable', as are certain facts of reality that impinge on social image. Thus, to protect itself, the ego welcomes the concept of "labelling" to dispense with unwanted realities. The illusion is that by declaring a reality to be a 'myth' and just a 'label', it will disappear."
Hawkins' brilliant analysis of the ego provides us with a framework to understand the growing popularity of the Q movement.
As things in the world heat up and our situation becomes more and more uncomfortable, the ego seeks to deny reality by labelling it as myth (hence, "trust the plan").
Many Qanon followers have also labeled the scamdemic as merely a "distraction", saying that the "plan" is on the verge of coming to fruition. Other "distractions" include the roll-out of 5G, COVID passports and mandatory vaccines.
Lockdowns are yet another "distraction". Despite zero evidence for this claim, Qanon followers will tell you lockdowns are necessary so that mass arrests can be made, and victims of abuse can be rescued.
Denial of unwanted realities is a characteristic of the ego that's being exploited by the controlling force behind Q.
Instead of fighting against this global takeover and destruction of freedom, many Qanon followers are sitting back with their feet up and "trusting the plan".
Non-attachment: Undoing Fear
Much of what we do in life is an attempt to ease our suffering.
Whether it's an alcohol addiction, playing video games or obsessively following Qanon. We do it because it makes us feel better.
There's something deep inside us that is crying out in fear and we try to stifle it by engaging in all kinds of activities that bring only temporary relief. Spiritual teaching is typically revolved around undoing fear and ending suffering.
The great spiritual traditions teach us that suffering is caused by desire and attachment. Osho, the late Indian mystic, summed it up perfectly when he said:
"We continuously cling to that which we have, and we continuously desire that which we don't have, and between these two we are crushed!"
The way out of suffering begins with undoing the ego. And an important step towards undoing the ego is practicing non-attachment.
Non-attachment is the practice of separating yourself from the worldly illusion and aligning yourself with the true nature of reality, with Divinity.
As Dr Hawkins said:
"The passion for divinity results in a de-energizing interest in worldliness since the Self has no needs, wants or desires, even for the body itself."
Separation from worldly affairs doesn't mean you stop participating in the world nor does it mean you can't enjoy the world – it simply means that you have learned to not let your happiness be dictated by external events.
Happiness, love, joy, fulfillment – it all comes from within. The minute you allow your circumstances to dictate your feelings, you have given in to the illusion and lost sight of the true reality, which is the Self, the soul, the atman. In Vedanta, they define this reality as 'Satchidananda', which means 'existence–consciousness–bliss'.
Swami Sarvapriyananda sums up the essence of non-attachment:
"You can say, I am open to it all. Everything will come, I'll resist nothing. Nor do I stick to anything. Nor do I pursue anything. I enjoy it all as it comes and goes."
Yes, we're going through a scary time. For those of us who are awake to the deception, it can feel like a nightmare. But giving in to fear is not the answer, nor is looking to Q to solve all your problems.
Instead, let us strive to practice non-attachment. Let us remember our true nature as pure consciousness. Let us be aware that happiness comes from within and is available to us at any time.
Let us open our hearts and resist nothing. Let us enjoy everything as it comes and goes.
This is how we take back our power from those who seek to keep us in fear.
