Meeting Transcript Discussion Summary
Today is April 29, 2016 and it feels like there has been a time of death, rebirth transformation, relocation, a lot of different things are shifting, I think in our personal lives, our professional lives. Every aspect of which is influenced through us or by us, has certainly been undergoing some kind of alteration and transformation. This is the touchstone to start to put the toe in the water, to change the ripple and the direction of the HGS field. Meaning the strength of the HGS field, through its transformation into a different and higher elevation, as it is being shifted now. We are being shifted into a different time space continuum, that time space continuum is impacting the ES community, and the HG field, it's impacting our organic field, and as such it feels like it's best to allow it to resettle itself and organize itself within the structure.
As we move into that relative balance of a higher expression of frequency, of light and plasma, we have the meeting point of the polarities within that field of energy. When that light meets in that dimension of time, and then clearing the obsolete energies that exist there. A lot of the attention and energy and awareness has been given to a tremendous amount of work, in these past months. These past months have impacted all of us. Dealing with fifth dimensional Satanic coding, Metatronic coding, reversal 55 coding, for many reasons. But in knowing that the Metatronic coding and that five based coding that is used, in many of the satanic field architecture, is used to manipulate black magic and this is where these entities are gathering their power. This is how black magicians conjure, subtle energetic forces and direct it to people.
As we move into higher fields, we all know the plan of attack of negative hierarchical forces and imposter spirit forces. There's a lot of smash and grab, thuggery and Mafia like behavior happening with these hierarchies at this time. It doesn't feel good, it is not fun, but I do feel that in alignment to the shift and change. We are undergoing that shift into that next platform and it requires seeing, clearing, a certain level of fifth dimensional distortion, that was existing in the next harmonic universe.
Essentially that's what is occurring. When we talk about the subatomic shifting, the point in time and space, and the time continuum in which we exist, is being moved into the next harmonic universe structure. Those of us on the ascending path are undergoing this while we are coexisting on a planet with many people that are maintaining or descending the third dimensional timelines, on the 3D Earth. So you have both, existing in parallel to each other, on the planet together. And yet we are located at a different point in the timeline, in the time space continuum. We are actually, our foundation or energetic body, and some of you may have been sensing that. That when you do your shielding work or when you do certain work, you may not be connecting into 3D Earth anymore. You may be connecting into fields of plasma.
We are elevated above the Earth field and yet, the physical body is existing within the fields of earth. So we are existing in a different time space location, a different time continuum, and a different actual harmonic universe entirely. I think this is the gradual shift until the end of 2017. It will be interesting to see, to view and observe what happens within the community, within us, as we undergo this sort of shift. I do feel as unpleasant as it is, and as difficult as it can be, this is the time where people that are not moving, or that is not their path to move into this next harmonic universe continuum, may not be coming with us. This may be manifested in a multitude of ways. We may be holding the anchor for those people, as many of us have understood, many of us are anchors for biological family members, or community, or at certain levels of our field service designation. Our Light body is an orb body, a spherical body, that once developed can hold human souls and it. So some of us will have that as well. There is so much going on, it's really hard to define it all.
But to understand that the time space coordinate location, of where we are moving to at the end of 2017, and this process is beginning now... is moving into these fourth, fifth and six dimensional fields. It's like saying the fourth, fifth and sixth dimension, become connected into the energy centers where your first, second and third chakra previously existed. Many of us don't have the first, second and third chakra anymore, while we are existing on the earth. That is the best way to describe the reconfiguration of the light body at this time. Those of us that are in contact with Founder Consciousness are going to have the Emerald looking or green Father energy, or the Mother Blue energy and that is going to be a full embodiment. And over the head is the Christ Sun. So again at this time what I'm experiencing is a whole different configuration and how the body is connecting to the earth realms. And the earth realms feel very much as it is existing underneath my physical body, in a way that is experienced spatially, differently.
My orientation in space has completely changed the bottom of me is completely filled with this blue plasma light and above me now, at that 4 feet position above head, all of that is bright gold light of the liquid plasma sun. It's completely filling that whole area, and it is just omnipresent now. There was the experience years ago, like in 2009 when I really saw the blue aura coming in, from the Mother Arc, being threaded into the earth and holding the Mother Arc. I think that's a part of being an acupuncture point for that frequency. Now it's a different level embodiment. The Krystal Star Diamond Sun body and the way that it is anchored in, it is very interesting in my experience at this moment. This is something to discover as we move on with this, those lower energy centers do not exist anymore, and yet you're on earth. Which is very curious, right?
The harmonic universe of the third dimension that is making up that particle level, and yet there's a part of us, our body is now sitting on a foundation that is not existing in the first, second or third dimension. And yet we can go into those dimensions. What I have been experiencing is that when I am looking at a human body that is stuck on the earth, a disincarnate. Their body from a distance is a sphere, until I shift my perception in the field and recognize that is a human being. I used to see humanoid disincarnate people, looking just like humans walking around, and now their energy field is spherical. My point of reference in looking at them on the inner planes has changed. I'm still experimenting with that experience, but I know it is people stuck in the lower dimensions, in the first, second and third dimension timelines. I'm looking from a higher dimension at them, rather than looking at them from the first, second or third dimension timeline. So it's very interesting and just sharing that in case that is something that has been experienced, or will be experienced by any of you and the future.
In holding this field for stabilization and of course allowing it to hold the next stage of its development. And for each of us to be informed and aware and in alignment, from an energetic level, not a mental level but that feeling level ... what our role or connection to the HGS field is, in the context of course of all of the shifts and changes that are occurring. So holding stabilization, strength, amplification and clarity for the Hieros Gamos field, and of course an application of that field through its manifestation in the physical, the HG manual, the Hiero Gamic manual. In sacred rod and staff in dedicating and consecrating our field to the purposes of God, we ask to please open all channels of light. We ask to clear all filaments and light fibers of our plasma to be fully connected and resident with the eternal living light code. As we consecrate today's group session in service to Cosmic Sovereign Law we call upon group avatar and God Self, our guides, guardians those that assist us in managing, administering to and holding the Hieros Gamos field, our Guardian and Aurora family.
Please help to connect with our Hiero Gamic field, we fully activate our Christos and what seems to be above us now, is that Aquaferion Shield that connects to the Aurora pillars and platforms. Beloved's again we ask to please join with us, guide us into the highest expression of our divinity and mission, as appropriate for each individual and of course our collective group field. We asked to balance center and stabilize the Hiero Gamic field now. Please perform axiatonal alignments connecting all vertical links, calibration and alignment of modulation between the white-hole black-hole spin points, through these axiatonal lines. And where they meet through their intersections horizontal and diagonal. We asked for re-connections as appropriate, which allow all spiritual energetic communication links between our individual collective being, and the mind, body and heart, of the Godhead. We ask to assist us in correcting all body parts, again allowing all aspects of our body. In feeling the cells, the mitochondria, the instructions set the cellular membrane, how that energy is vitalized, the mitochondria itself to nourish and support our organ systems.
Some of you might be aware of recent on posts in the community, speaking about Trinity fields and Trinity Gates. Noting that as a part of the subatomic shifting that has occurred from this bifurcation, and in this movement into this different time space continuum. Our vantage point in working with certain Earth grid problems is changing. My feeling is whether or not we have experienced it directly in this moment that may be something that in the future we feel more directly. Is that from this elevated vantage point of consciousness, again being moved into a different time space continuum if you will, then the majority of the inhabitants on the earth plane at this time. Again there's not that many of us moving in that direction.
So understanding that this is a premium, it's a privilege, it allows us access point into certain levels of the field, which feels that it will be more powerful. Meaning that we have talked about this before, that it is from higher dimensional access that the lower dimensions are influenced. If we are going to make any meaningful architectural shifts in the planets grid, we are accessing a space from a higher dimensional plane, in order to impact the sound light and creational codes that are arranging these fields, and fields of expression, instruction sets, in and this and that. As we move into the higher time space location, it allows us more influence or hopefully more accuracy, or ... do I want to see permanency? I don't know if I have the words at this moment, because a lot of us will find the complexity of the interaction of the fields of Earth, is just something that cannot be described in words. It's incredibly complex in terms of how things interact or influence each other.
Clearly when we work with HGS, we are being guided through that process, and creating very specific templates in order to influence a particular instruction set, for whatever the intent, or direction, or location, or demographic of that particular session is being directed to. It makes sense to me that from the higher perspective, meaning that coming from a higher dimensional perspective of which to impact the lower dimensional fields. Because the majority of the people, the souls on this earth, the collective race field of humanity is existing there. They are existing in those fields, so in a sense there is this strange and surreal experience of, you being on the earth and yet in a completely different time space, and an energy field than the people around you, than the majority of the people around you. And also determining, and I think we have to explore and feel into that, are we a hub of a particular area that's holding a certain parameter of that ascending hub, that supports the people in that area?
One thing I'm understanding is that during the bifurcation, we had damage in the Trinity Gates. These Trinity gates are intrinsic and responsible for and a part of, the structure of what has been described in the consciousness corridor or cosmic evolution edict, in supporting the transit and the rehabilitation, and the assistance of the majority of the people on this earth. Again in the cycles of their evolution, being moved into that appropriate space-time, whatever their consciousness level maybe. We have an incredible array of consciousness perspectives and differences in frequency on planet.
We also have groups; you have star groups, the Satanic, Luciferian and Christic forms of beings, but also all of this hybridization, and also beings that are highly identified with a certain culture or star system. An example one of the things that is very present lately, are the Maldekian beings. The consciousness and souls that are on planet Earth, that came from what we call the refugee races. They were brought here or dumped here, however you want to look at it, after their planet exploded. Brought here with a lot of damage, and so those beings, a human that has a tremendous percentage or weighted memory or identity, which they have not healed yet. They have not even begun to encounter this aspect of themselves, from Maldek, and they're here on the earth.
So the Maldekians will have certain healing objectives, and they'll be resonating with each other. They were there like a soul group or soul pod, or star system. Those souls will have a common theme of evolution, and most of them will probably choose the same planet, or the same consciousness corridor in order to play that out, in order to heal it. Because it's clear the Maldekian problem and the refugee race problem that happened on this earth, is not healed. Obviously we do our parts in healing the architecture here, but I also recognize that many of the souls here are going to need to work on that in their next lifetime. How are they going to do that? Through the consciousness corridor.
Now what has attempted to be interfered with, disrupted and disconnected, is this process. And that's a lot of what we are feeling right now, obviously and the vulnerability of this spread. The juxtaposition of this huge spread of frequency, this point of divergence, is what it's called. Where the frequency is now repelling itself in a different direction. When it does this it creates a really strong momentum, and that can increase the feelings of chaos, specifically when in the presence of something that has an opposing polarity to you. Before it used to be attracted to you like a magnet, now it's been repelled from you. There can be some really strong sensations from the force that is generated, because it's a repelling force now, between the ascending and descending frequencies.
A lot of those people that are somewhere at the bottom, or somewhere in between, are going to need a Trinity gate, in order to move into the next series of their evolution cycle. Without what we know is the problem on planet Earth, the enslavement, the artificial intelligence, and the mind control and all of that. So the Trinity gates have been very present, but it feels very much related to Hieros Gamos. Our Hieros Gamos sessions our Hiero Gamic code, is capable of repairing, strengthening, and reconnecting the architecture in these systems of transiting. This is a part of understanding this larger objective of the consciousness corridors, that these gates are where the majority of the humans on this earth, at this time, will be exited. Exited, transited, rehabbed, in transit stations, to prepare. What's going to need to happen, is most of these gates require a human being, with at least three genetic strands operating. When we start digressing and we go into Metatronic reversal, when so many human being start going into Metatronic reversal, they actually lose their code.
The majority of people that do not awaken, like that the narcissistic wounding, they are dealing with Metatronic fields that are highly susceptible to AI signal. Running AI signal so the black magic fields and the Metatronic fields, are easily converted to AI signal. That is a part of what the war is about. This is why so much of our work, you may have noticed, has been clearing black magic grids, clearing Metatronic coding. It's all the fifth, this 5 and 10 base coding that is used by the Thothian and black magic grids, because these grids are first to go. They go Metatronic and go into AI. Which I would say is the next stage of decay or deterioration of the planet consciousness, being assimilated into an AI program. Metatronic is a reversal that is splitting the consciousness apart. AI is an assimilation into a computer program. It's like the complete deterioration of the consciousness at AI signal level. So the project, or work, which is through us, or through our night time adventures, through our sessions, you may see this theme.
In working with these horrifyingly disgusting grids, as we know, there is no easy way to be neutral while you're in there. But I had to try to find words to describe it, I mean there just aren't any. It's pure hatred and its sewage it's not pleasant. Feeling some of that has been in the community field recently, and it's a result of this work, and it's something that eventually, when we regain our sense of consistency in our weekly meetings, and regain our balance this is going to be restored to balance, and return to a stronger and more intense light field, within the community. But over the last months, this has been a weakness and a vulnerability. Because as we all know, when we are undergoing transition into a different field set, higher frequencies, what we call initiation. It's a shift into a different frequency set. There is always vulnerability, there's always people that start acting out. They get in entrenched in the black magic, and the feeling of these forces. And that goes into the victim victimizer, and the psychic attacking.
You may have noticed, this is why I Have tried to beef up our ascension glossary and information in the community, to discuss negative spirits. Because most of the people at the higher level, we're dealing with negative alien invasion who is taking advantage of the lower spirits in the earth plane, to manipulate them. Most people that are not galactivated yet, meaning they're not holding monadic consciousness yet. The majority of their problem in clearing is not negative alien entities, its ancestral spirits, its satanic spirits, its attachments. A lot of it could be from family of origin stuff, it could be genetic and generational stuff. One of the things that is very clear, is that not that many people realize the importance of personal focus and responsibility. Really where the work is, what is so crucial, is that every action that you are engaged in; whether it's eating, whether to drinking, whether it's walking down the street. That you are in full consent, and this is your intent to do that activity in that moment. That you are not allowing your body to be controlled by something, or someone, or some power outside of yourself. This is what sets up possession, in either thought form possession, which is possible or an actual entity possession.
At the highest level, it's a negative alien pulling the strings. But that's not the layer that's going to shift or heal, because generally that person is not at that Galactic level of embodiment. Where it's impacting at that level, or we can go to that as the source field. Sometimes we can and sometimes we can't, but the majority of the time the person needs to clear and understand, their physical actions need to be always in their consent. That means no autopilots, no automatic reactions, being excruciatingly careful obviously with anything that is an influential substance that takes you out of your body. Again we know the dangers of that and why the pot and the legalization, and all of this partying thoughtform is being sent as broadcast to the vulnerable youngsters. Because it's the easiest way to take you out of your body and therefore out of consent. Now you become under the control of a force you don't understand, and the more that you do that, the more that you let go of your full awareness to participate, with the actions that your body is involved with, the easier possession is. And this is the dark agenda right now, of the smash and grab thugs that are using these disincarnate spirits, ancestral spirits, and things that are conjured, or evoked through black magic. A lot of these things are conjured and evoked bindings, this is a negative curse, hex, spell, black magic. They are constantly casting that, throwing that out.
Generally they are ancestral spirits, they're connected to you, in your family biology someway. Could be connected to a past life. And these are various hierarchies of what we call satanic spirits, or spirits of the earth. They are lower spirits and these guys are controlled by a gatekeeper, and that's usually a fallen angelic. But the demon is controlling these other groupings of entities. There is a power structure that goes on within a chain of command.
The more the war goes on for the sovereignty of that person, there is a chain of command. It is exactly like the military, it works exactly like mafia. The world of spirit is actually set up that way, it's bizarre. But these are hierarchies of these dark entities. Understanding that these are the ones primarily that are wreaking havoc right now. When we can observe the glazed over eyes of people that have forms of possession, most of that is disincarnates. This isn't negative alien stuff. I think in the more advanced destructive activities that people carry out orders, the ones that are killing people, and some of the really sinister stuff, satanic ritual abuse. Many times those destructive events are carried out by a temporary reptilian embodiment. But most of the harassment, the smash and grab, is this low-level dark spirit. And mostly, in my personal theory, because there are a ton of them. There are more of those than there are negative aliens. There aren't that many negative aliens, in population, in comparison to the disincarnates and the black spirits, of human souls and those that have been absorbed into the demonic streams, under the control of the Fallen Angelics.
This is important to bring that awareness to surface, because this is impacting me at the moment, because unfortunately or fortunately I am the steward of the ES community. So I'm dealing with this witch that's got a hold of ___________. It's recognizing that it is that kind of entity that is generally going to be wreaking havoc with people around us, when you're looking at possessions, and this kind of thing. Even though it is clear that many of us are working on these low level spirits, these dark black entities. Because where are they getting their power? The black magic grids, they get it from there, they siphon that energy off. When they are casting their spells, and creating these ugly patterns, or weapons, or creatures like spiders and insectoid crap, to suck off of you. This is the conjuring, not the robotic ones, as that's different. That's a part of the AI signal ones. And usually the AI is attracted to a star seed or high-level indigo on planet. But for most people, you're going to get what I'm talking about, something that is conjuring and working with the black magic fields, and they get power from that black magic or Baphomet field. And then they get kudos from their higher up, whoever's controlling them. You have to remember these are spirits of servitude, they don't have self-determination, someone else is giving them an order. And remembering that I think is helpful, in eviction and facing off with these entities, to realize this is a spirit or servitude to someone else. He may say he's all that, he may think he's all-powerful, but he's not. He's actually answering to someone above him. Always remember that this is a spirit of servitude.
In bringing clarity to current circumstances in which we may be exposed. Hopefully to have a greater understanding of some of the forces that may be influenced in the periphery, or sensing around, and why. Hopefully it gives a deeper clarity into understanding that these entities are also attempting to hitchhike off humans, as they move through the consciousness corridor, and they will not be able to. Now if they kill the human, if they're able to possess the human and kill the human, and stay in the body, then there will be some rehabilitation or direction, where those entities will go. But ultimately it will be the human souls involved in that enmeshment, because whatever that enmeshment is, it could've been something that happened lifetimes ago, many lifetimes, repeated lifetimes. Those beings have to figure it out and take responsibility for their actions. They have to take the course of evolution, and learn how to exist within a different space, without the alien control, without the mind control, and be given a process through which they can evolve in a body. They are given a new body with which to work within the context of evolution.
That is what the Trinity gates are designed for. And so in understanding the opposition, the attacking, why so much black magic and these low-level spirits all over the place. A lot of these entities have got to be routed, moved out. The Trinity gates need to be repaired and sequenced. The black magic fields through which of these entities gain power, you can see it's kind of like a starvation structure. These entities used to get a lot more black force. We've got changes in lunar, changes in magnetic, and changes in gravity. All of these changes are impacting their food source, which is their energy supply that they can draw off these black magic grids. Because it's like a black substance, what these fields are. It's not a plasma body, it's like a type of residue body of the black force. And in order for them to cast spells and get around, and then play their games, they suck the energy off of people. But they suck the energy off these grids. These grids are shifting, where there's not enough food source for all of them, so now they're really going for human beings. Meaning in order to jump on the human being, and try to get the energy from the human being, as an act of desperation. As well as a part of that smash and grab feeling, when you have that thug smash and grab on his way out in desperation. This is what they're doing right now, smash and grab, and they are grabbing some people on the way out. And of course that is not pleasant at all.
But understanding the Trinity gate is a part of consciousness corridor, and so the importance of clearing the black magic grids, and these particular ancestral entities stuck on them. And how they are harassing so many people. This is happening simultaneously, to the repair of the Trinity gates, because these gates are where the people of this planet will exit. Into a safe space where they will not be astral harnessed and mind controlled into what they have been on the earth, over many cycles of time.
Question: I had a question too, about when you were describing the chakras and moving into another harmonic universe. I'm used to thinking of the chakras as; one is the root, etc. Are you saying that like the root area, would correspond to the fourth chakra now?
Lisa: Yes. The people on the ascending path are moving. If you think 1, 2 and 3 as the harmonic universe of 3D, then 4, 5, and 6. Four is the root of the fifth dimensional earth. So think about the cosmology of that universal time matrix, and you think of these multiple earths. You have the 3D Earth and the 5D earth. So the 3D Earth energy field, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd chakra, was a type of dimensional wave of spectrum.
For the people in the bifurcation, going through the Ascension process, those first, second and third chakras are now being upgraded. And it will probably be gradual, to allow them to collect or integrate pieces of themselves. Through the Ascension process this energy now is coming into the root, the first, second and third areas. I think this gives us insight into how the masses are going to be eventually freed, from this insidious mind control and artificial intelligence, right? Because most of that structure is controlling the first, second, and third layers. Now all the sudden, it is a dimensional rollup. That would be the best way to say it. The dimensions are rolling up and they still exist, but they have a different quality of frequency governing them. It's like saying the fourth dimensional governance, because remember every dimension has a different ray structure, a different quality of energy. And how that energy moves, it's colors, it's consciousness, has a theme to it. So it's like saying 'that' now evolves to replace the first enrgy center as the foundation or chakra for people.
The first chakra as we know it, as born on 3D Earth, is ceasing to exist in the groups that are ascending. I think what is being described as descending, is probably these people that are becoming more consubstantial with these lower demonic forces. As we know, we are still coexisting with these demonic forces, and these black forces are primarily (that are earth bound, the ones stuck on earth) in the first, second and third layers. So as this role up occurs, it also describes why the entities that used to have a veil of separation from our reality, they are no longer veiled from us. Because that dimension is rolled up, and it's now floating around in the third dimension. These entities now are elbow to elbow with the human being, where previously, it was more like a veil or membrane there that made it a little more difficult for things like possession to occur, and this type of body hijack. It's a very positive thing, because it means that that energy, that quality, that extremely dense waveform is ceasing to exist in that space. That's exactly what we want, to evolve and get beyond the victim-victimizer program, that's been loaded in the first dimension. They use a lot of that root, that red energy wave spectrum to run that thing.
Now we still have a lot of people on earth that are used to that frequency. They obviously grew up with it, they've been conditioned since birth to think that's how the world works, and that's a part of the problem. Because when you have someone on earth, a human being feeding that victim-victimizer program, they are keeping the root energy alive, they are generating more of it. They don't realize that they don't have to, because again that's the sad thing about this mind control programming. You only know, what you know. Then you can see why there is so much violent aggression in the media being directed towards the general public, to keep them cycling in the victim-victimizer, and in this warring consciousness, and why it's been getting worse. Because they're desperate to keep that same energy running down here, even though the planet is ceasing to support it. The body of planet is evolving and these dimensions are rolling up and being absorbed into the next higher dimension, and they're desperate, running around trying to make people create more of it.
As we know there are things that exist as collective agreements. If you have thousands, millions of people on earth who are projecting thoughts of victim-victimizer, hatred, control, master slave, whatever it may be. Then there is a lot of people in that thought form, there's a collective agreement that keeps that low energy circulating. There are people that are synchronizing to the reality bubble that they are most comfortable with. This is of course the horrifyingly sad thing, that so many people on earth are familiar and feel comfortable with these destructive energies. So even though these energies are horrifyingly enslaving and parasitic, it's like people are familiar to it, so they continue to propagate it still. Not knowing that you need to move on into a different thought form, you need to shift the way you're thinking, you need to behave in a different way.
But I think we've seen some of that happening on planet Earth, where you see more people on earth concerned about worldly things, and larger issues that impact the world. We are getting beyond the selfishness, about me, me, me and what I need, and what I should do. There is a move from the individual consciousness and we start thinking about larger things that impact the world, and more people are concerned about that. That is definitely a way to describe that shift in consciousness, because there's less of that quality of energy being supported in the planet itself. Then people start changing their thought forms. The biggest challenge we have on planet earth is recognizing that we are dealing with people that have been severely abused, and severely victimized. All of us were born here and we know what it's like. We went through it too, but at varying degrees of trauma. We are dealing with a population of completely traumatized people, that are not understanding the tools, and how to shift their consciousness.
In our context here, and in speaking about energy and intelligent energy, and that everything has a blueprint. Most people just do not understand or conceive of that. But if you shift your consciousness it's going to remove that quality of energy from impacting, or running through your chakras. We have reached a point in the bifurcation, where some of us on the ascension path, in the ascending hub moving in 2017, are aligning to the next harmonic universe. This is what's coming. I'm seeing that right now, it is impacting us in the community, it is impacting the Hiero Gamic field, and the Mentor field. It is something that is happening as we are transiting and moving through this time. It's clear as indigo star people with this information, that we are the first wave, we do this jump into the higher platform first. This is clearly happening in the community, and I'm experiencing it directly in my own body, so I know it's happening. This will be a trickle-down effect. More and more people, if you're not there already it's going to happen. Those that choose the ascension path, this is what's happening. So that the whole configuration in our particle body, what used to be our particle chakras in the first, second and third layer. It means that those frequencies that we were born into on the earth, what our chakras used to transmit or transduce or move through the body, those become non-existent. Those are not in our body anymore and that's a great thing, because those are the energies of black magic, AI, black substance, and control. Those are the primary levels, where they control the body of the people of this earth.
There are obviously others, Metatron is coming from the 9th and 10th dimensions, in reversing and breaking up the Christ consciousness, the avatar dimension. Obviously they tried to split, that's the monadic reversal, in the splitting of the electron of those fields. But drilling it down, coming into the physical body, the first, second and third chakra are energies that govern the physical body; the actions of physical body, the autonomic system, the nervous system. Now their whole agenda has been attack the autonomic system, so that we can gain control over the brain receiver, and the neurological functions of the human. Now if a human is shifting their neurological and brain receivers to a different or higher dimensional frequency broadcast, it's hard for them because there most of their system of control is this AI Metatronic code, that is drilled down to those three main software programs.
First chakra was controlled by a software coming out of Saturn called victim-victimizer. This is a software program like an AI that runs programs through your body, if you let it. And of course most people do, because you don't know. So this software is running your chakra and it's putting in all of these archetypes, victimizer archetypes, and belief systems. And until you become conscious, you don't know this is going on. So your unconscious mind is under the complete control of this software, and that's how they get you. They get access to your autonomic system they get access to your transduction sequence, which is again that moment where your spirit being came into physical biology. So they try to control the biology immediately, and this is how they do it.
The second chakra is sexual misery program software. So the sexual misery coming out of wormwood and UK, is spread all over the planet and it is meant to promote lunar force in the second chakra. And as we know all of these distortions for the female, were created in order to keep the satanic dark mother force alive on earth. That's what sexual misery did it exacerbated and created more satanic force, more dark mother force, because it's using these frequencies that are inherent in the second dimension of planet Earth. And it's converting it into these reversals, and that's again a part of what creates this satanic force intelligence. Then more and more people feed it, more and more people create more of it, and it just grows and grows like a cancer, but the instigation of it. This program didn't create Satanism it advanced it. It created more of it. Satanic force was always an interplay, but what it is today of course, has been manipulated from this advanced technology of artificial intelligence, creating software to control the instinctual and unconscious minds of people. To get them to do this automatically and not know any different, so that they would create more of this black lunar force that could be converted back into the satanic force on the earth. So that satanic force will completely control the earth. And we can see, of course, how incredibly successful that has been, because you look around today and see this satanic force everywhere on the earth. This is a part of what is propagating it, generating it, distributing it, across the earth, the NRG program sexual misery. This is why it's the big burrito and this is why it's so hard for me to go to the UK, because somebody knows I have that mission. And they don't want me there, because this is a prolific generator of this satanic force.
We get to third dimension and you get into the software of Armageddon. That's the 911 Alpha Omega agenda. This is also software, again all of this was placed in the collective consciousness of the planet earth, and it is running software to control the chakras of the 3D humans, to play these programs out. These are the three main software programs that are being used. When you think of the software, it is running off a particular electromagnetic wave pattern. So the program and the code that they wrote, to run that software that controls the chakra systems of the average human being, was with the goal of complete and utter control of the body. That is their goal, that's why the software was written, that's why it was put into the planetary field. So that every aspect of the human's physical function could be sourced and controlled by these forces.
Now when we see that in the ascension, and with this bifurcation, these energies are being rolled up. There are still have many people on planet, that have the software installed. This is obviously the problem, and this is what they are betting on. So when you see the smash and grab, and all of these blatant attempts, this is working that agenda. They are absolutely doing everything they can in the global scape, to get the people to run this software in the lower chakras to keep it running. Because if they run this software they are going to be assimilated into that AI, and they're going to spread, or create more of that satanic force. The bodies will be under the complete control of these negative aliens at the top level. If they want to use a body or whatever else, thinking from their point of view. You have to think of their agenda, why are they doing this? Why do they want to control every last breath, movement, action of humanity?. I mean it almost seems ridiculous the level of this micromanagement of control. But when you start to look at the information profiling, into the Prism and into the Snowden leaks, and all of this coming out, there is hard data that shows the micromanaging of every last detail of a human in order to gather profiles for AI assimilation.
The micromanaging of the human being, it's jaw-dropping, right? When you think of how much control that these negative beings want over the public, and this is the reason why. Understanding that it's not over till it's over, they just keep doing it. And as we can see there are some people on earth that let it happen, because they are unaware, they're traumatized, or whatever else. So hopefully though, the good news about this movement, is understanding that in the future generations, more of our higher consciousness souls, can actually embody in a human body, and this will die out. If you think in the long-term range, you can see that the writing is on the wall. There's no way they're going to be able to handle this shadow and mirrors imitation for another 1000 years, trying to desperately control, or micromanage every breath a person takes. But I think it is an evolutionary issue, there are going to be future generations that are not going to have first, second and third energy wave spectrum from the 3-D Earth. They are going to be carrying these higher levels of being, and a lot of these thought forms like victim-victimizer or sexual misery will be totally foreign to them. And I think the planet will be able to support that different way of life. We are the transit (transition) team in laying the groundwork for the future generations.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) _ Nicaragua is moving to prevent foreign bankers from seizing its assets as payment of back interest on its foreign debt, the head of the nation's central bank said in an interview published Thursday.
Joaquin Cuadra, president of the Central Bank of Nicaragua, told the pro- government newspaper El Nuevo Diario that such a move by foreign bankers would have serious consequences for the international financial system and would cause alarm among other debtor nations.
Cuadra did not say what steps the government was taking to prevent a possible seizure.
The Miami Herald reported Tuesday that U.S. banks were forming a creditor's committee to consider seizing Nicaraguan assets overseas if the country continued missing interest payments on its $3.7 billion debt.
The bank group had notified some 150 international banks of its intention to recover the debt, an unidentified banker told the Herald.
A Bank of America spokesman in San Francisco confirmed that Bank of America, New York's Citibank and Wells Fargo Bank, also based in San Francisco, were attempting to form a creditors committee on behalf of Nicaragua's international bank lenders.
Banking sources said the purpose of a creditors committee would be to explore available options for collecting the debt.
The financially strapped Central American nation has had trouble meeting payments on its foreign debt since the Reagan administration imposed a trade embargo in 1985 when relations between the two countries deteriorated.
Cuadra said Nicaragua was hindered in making debt payments by the trade embargo, which officials say has cost Nicaragua more than $108.4 million.

University of Wisconsin Law School student Will Kramer of Middleton is the 2017 winner of the Federated Youth Foundation's (FYF) Charles Van Sickle Scholarship.
Van Sickle Scholarship awarded
The $2,000 scholarship is given to a law or pre-law student who has an interest in cooperative law. It's funded through an endowment established in 2013 to honor Wisconsin's renowned electric cooperative lobbyist and attorney, the late Charles Van Sickle.
The Federated Youth Foundation is a Wisconsin nonprofit charitable organization formed to channel unclaimed cooperative funds into educational or community service activities.
Kramer has worked as an investigator with a United States Senate oversight committee under the leadership of then-Senator Herb Kohl and as a safety and risk management consultant to companies across the country, including employment with a mutual insurance company.
"Will demonstrates a deep interest in cooperative business and an aptitude to excel as an attorney," said FYF Executive Director Ethan Giebel.
Power prices climb in '17
Energy Information Administration (EIA) data released in October show residential electricity prices increased 3.1 percent on a nationwide average during the first half of 2017. The increase was smaller in the region that includes Wisconsin.
The U.S. average kilowatt-hour price was 12.8 cents.
The data is broken down by federal census division to reflect regional variation. The East North Central division (including Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio) saw a below-average price increase of about 2.5 percent.
The highest kilowatt-hour prices and largest percentage increase were both recorded in the Pacific division (Alaska, Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, and California), at more than 25 cents and almost 7 percent, respectively.
Feds to underwrite new nuke loans
With the economic viability of nuclear generation under competitive pressure from natural gas and renewables, the Department of Energy announced it will guarantee $3.8 billion in loans for the only nuclear expansion currently underway in the United States.
The amount is in addition to $8.3 billion in loans previously guaranteed for the Vogtle 3&4 project, adding two new reactors at an existing Georgia nuclear site. The project is expected to be operational in 2022.
Former lawmaker heads agency
Dan Meyer, who served six terms as a member of the state Assembly representing Vilas and Oneida Counties between 2001 and 2013, is the new secretary of the Department of Natural Resources.
Meyer was appointed by Governor Walker, who had previously elevated Deputy Secretary Kurt Theide as interim secretary at the end of August when Cathy Stepp vacated the top agency position to become principal deputy administrator at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 7 headquarters in Lenexa, Kansas.

Q: Cómo editar la información de un formulario dinámico con javascript y php? Hola buenas noches qué tal?, Tengo una duda y espero contar con su apoyo para resolverla. Veran, no se como explicarlo bien, ya que es algo complejo; estoy aprendiendo a programar en php-javascript-sql, por medio de un curso y nos dejaron de tarea aplicarle dinamismo con javascript a unos formularios basados en campos select multiples, y tener la opción de "agregar información" y "editar información reciente".
He creado un formulario y luego he guardado ese formulario en dos archivos diferentes. El primero digamos que es el que se cargara cuando le de click a un botón llamado: "agregar información nueva"; allí me aparecera el formulario pero digamos que vacío, para que pueda seleccionar valores y luego guardar la información en una base de datos(esta parte la tengo hecha sin ningun problema).
El segundo archivo sera el que se cargara si le doy click al botón: "Editar información reciente"; para este caso, necesito que me aparezca el mismo formulario pero con la información que había guardado con el formulario anterior, para que pueda editar esta información y guardar los cambios.
Es en esta parte donde tengo dudas y me he lidado mucho, porque se como hacer esto con campos input tipo text, number, etc pero no se como hacerlo con elementos select multiple. Cómo hacer para que al entrar en la opción de editar información reciente me aparezca el formulario con los elementos select y que la información que guarde en el formulario anterior me aparezca en este formulario pero con atributo "selected"?
Yo he intentado hacerlo de esta manera:
Extraer los datos de la base de datos(los datos que guarde previamente con el primer formulario), guardar esos datos en variables php ($primero) y luego por medio de javascript (función changeValues(); ) tratar de hacer que esos datos aparezcan como opciones seleccionadas en los elementos selects multiple.
Tengo dos archivos php:  el primero se llama "agregar_info.php" y contiene el formulario para agregar información nueva. El segundo se llama "editar_info.php",
El código que mostrare a continuación forma parte del archivo "editar_info.php" (es solo una parte del código que tiene ese archivo, es solo para mostrarles lo que estoy tratando de hacer):
codigo php:
$sentencia = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT * FROM tabla WHERE  fecha = '$date'");
while ($extraido = mysqli_fetch_array($sentencia)) { //se utiliza el while para ir guardando todos los elementos de la consulta.
    if ($extraido !== null) {
        $primero = $extraido['sun']; //la información que se almacena en esta variable es la que quiero pasar a una variable javascript.
        $fecha = $extraido['fecha'];
    } }//  llave de cierre para el while

mysqli_free_result($sentencia);
mysqli_close($link);

var none = true;
function changeValues () {

  var sunUpdate = $("#sun_id").val() || [];
  var recibidos = <?php echo $primero; ?>;
         $("#sun_id").val(recibidos);
         sunUpdate = $("#sun_id").val()
       var sunTexts = $("#sun_id option:selected").map(function() {
           return $(this).text();
                                }).get();

 //esta parte son validaciones que le realizo al formulario, me funciona bien en el primer formulario(agregar información nueva), pero para este formulario de editar información, estas validaciones no están funcionando bien.

//primera validación
  if(sunUpdate == "") { //si no hay ninguna opción seleccionada se realizan las siguientes acciones

    $("#sun_id").val("0"); //se asigna coloca la primera opción como "selected".

    sunUpdate = $("#sun_id").val() // Se Actualiza los nuevos valores seleccionados

    $('.sun').css("font-weight", "normal");
    sunTexts = $("#sun_id option:selected").map(function() {
                  return $(this).text();
                                }).get(); //Se Actualiza el texto de las opciones seleccionadas
    none = true; //se establece que la primera opción esta seleccionada
    $('#sun_id').material_select('destroy'); //se destruye el select para poder efectuar los cambios
    $('#sun_id').material_select(); //se construye el select con los cambios realizados.
  }

//segunda validación
  if (none && (sunUpdate.length > 1 || sunUpdate[0] != "0")) { // si la primera opcion del select esta seleccionada pero se selecciona algo diferente

    $("#sun_id option[value=0]").removeAttr("selected");
    // se actualizan los valores seleccionados
    sunValues = $("#sun_id").val()

    $('.sun').css("font-weight", " bold");
    sunTexts = $("#sun_id option:selected").map(function() {
                  return $(this).text();
                                }).get();

        none = false; //se establece que la primera opción ya no esta seleccionada.
        $('#sun_id').material_select('destroy'); //se destruye el select
        $('#sun_id').material_select(); //se reconstruye el select

  } else if (!none && sunUpdate.indexOf("0") > -1) { //si las opciones con value = 1, 2 o 3 estan seleccionadas pero se selecciona la opción con value 0

    $("#sun_id").val("0"); //se asigna la primera opcion como "selected"

    sunUpdate = $("#sun_id").val() //se actualizan los valores

    $('.sun').css("font-weight", "normal");
    sunTexts = $("#sun_id option:selected").map(function() {
                  return $(this).text();
                                }).get();

    none = true;
    $('#sun_id').material_select('destroy');
    $('#sun_id').material_select();
  }

  document.querySelector('.sun').innerHTML = sunTexts.join(", ");
//se muestran los valores seleccionados en un elemtento span
  $('.sun').html(sunTexts.join(", "));

    }
    $("#sun_id").change(changeValues); //se aplica evento change
    changeValues();
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/materialize/1.0.0-alpha.3/css/materialize.min.css">
    <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons" rel="stylesheet">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>

            <select id="sun_id" multiple="multiple" name="sun[]" class="sunMultiple">
              <option value="0">None</option>
              <option value="1"> Sunny</option>
              <option value="2">Partly sunny</option>
              <option value="3">Not sunny</option>

            </select>
              Select Conditions

Lo que intento hacer es colocar los valores extraidos de la base de datos como valores seleccionados en el select, y lo logro pero el problema esta cuando quiero editar, o sea seleccionar otros valores o deseleccionar los que estan, al final siempre me quedan los valores que he extraído de la base de datos. Creo que el problema esta en la función js.
Cómo podria solucionar ese problema? Lo que quiero es que sea un formulario para editar la información guardada anteriormente, para poder deseleccionar los valores que había guardado previamente y seleccionar otros, o dejar unos y colocar otros, asi sucesivamente.
Los errores que pasan son, por ejemplo:
En el primer formulario yo selecciono a guardar la opción "Sunny", esto lo hace correctamente. Luego voy al formulario de editar información y me aparece inicialmente la opción Sunny como selecionado, eso esta muy bien pero si por ejemplo intento desmarcar esa opción y elegir otra, entonces esa opcion me aparece marcada igual, no se quita. Se supone que hay unas validaciones en javascript que deben cumplirse, pero no estan funcionando.
Alguna idea como podría solucionar esto?

On first day in Office, LA County District Attorney George Gascón announces move to end cash bail
From the Wire December 7, 2020 Leave a comment
"I recognize for many this is a new path… Whether you are a protester, a police officer, or a prosecutor, I ask you to walk with me."
by Brett Wilkins, staff writer
Newly inaugurated Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón made a splash on his first day in office by announcing sweeping criminal justice reform measures, including a move to eliminate cash bail. (Photo: Shawn Calhoun/Flickr/cc)
On his first day in office on Monday, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón unveiled a sweeping set of plans for criminal justice reform in the nation's most populous county, including moving to phase out cash bail for all misdemeanor and some felony offenses.
"We can break the multigenerational cycles of violence, trauma, and arrest and recidivism that [have] led America to incarcerate more people than any other nation." — Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón
The Los Angeles Times reports the new DA also plans to bar prosecutors in his office from pursuing sentencing enhancements in nearly all criminal cases, and is expected to end prosecution of first-time misdemeanor offenders.
Among the other campaign promises included in Gascón's reform agenda are prohibiting prosecutors from seeking the death penalty and no longer trying minors as adults.
"I recognize for many this is a new path… Whether you are a protester, a police officer, or a prosecutor, I ask you to walk with me," Gascón said at the first press conference of his new job. "I ask you to join me on this journey. We can break the multigenerational cycles of violence, trauma, and arrest and recidivism that [have] led America to incarcerate more people than any other nation."
Those experiences taught me the criminal justice system is fundamentally broken.
Today, we will usher in a new era of criminal justice, and transform the largest criminal justice jurisdiction in America.
— George Gascón (@GeorgeGascon) December 7, 2020
Gascón, a native of Havana, Cuba, championed many of the reforms he is now set to implement while serving first as police chief and then district attorney of San Francisco. In 2016 the then-San Francisco DA introduced an algorithmic risk assessment tool to determine who is eligible for pre-trial release without bail.
However, the system—although well-intentioned—was plagued by bias that could be every bit as harmful as the prejudices of the humans who designed it.
As Los Angeles County's new DA George Gascón was sworn in Monday, he promised drastic reform.
Some of the reforms include: eliminating cash bail, no longer pursuing the death penalty, and eliminating all sentencing enhancements. https://t.co/Su19yBC9Qq
— Sentencing Project (@SentencingProj) December 7, 2020
This whole thread is a head-spinner. Gascon. Day One. No more cash bail. No sentencing enhancements. Three strikes cases to be re-evaluated. Police shooting cases re-opened. Diversion for youth, poverty, mentally ill cases. Witness services for cases of murder by police. Change. https://t.co/WFQrM3Wun2
— Ava DuVernay (@ava) December 7, 2020
Gascón was also sharply criticized during his tenure in San Francisco—which followed that of Vice President-elect Kamala Harris—for his failure to hold police accountable during a period which saw numerous high-profile officer killings of Black and Brown men including Mario Woods, Luis Gongora Pat, Amilcar Perez-Lopez, and Alex Nieto.
Still, Gascón was also widely hailed—especially outside San Francisco—for his progressive policies and actions, including his decision in 2018 to wipe clean the records of thousands of individuals who had been charged with marijuana-related misdemeanors and felonies over the preceding decades.
Some incredible L.A. County criminal justice news in James's thread here: juveniles no longer to be tried as adults(!), death of cash bail, no sentencing enhancements(!), & more. Wow. This feels massive. https://t.co/OmKvh0TFNf
— Ryan Gattis (@Ryan_Gattis) December 7, 2020
More people will see the justice they deserve soon. @GeorgeGascon
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) December 7, 2020
San Francisco has since moved to eliminate cash bail. Shortly after taking office, current San Franisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin fulfilled his campaign promise to no longer request money bail as a condition for defendants' pre-trial release.
In 2018, outgoing California Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law a bill ending cash bail in the nation's most populous state. However, the bail bond industry challenged the measure, and a 2020 state ballot initiative that would have upheld the law failed to secure sufficient support.

'Thank you God for everything': Waverly volunteers give back after flooding devastation
by: Valencia Wicker
Posted: Nov 25, 2021 / 04:55 PM CST
Updated: Nov 25, 2021 / 04:55 PM CST
WAVERLY, Tenn. (WKRN) – It's been three months and four days since raging flood waters devastated parts of Humphreys County. Much of Waverly, Tennessee was destroyed and is still in need of repair.
"I've never seen this my whole life," said Michelle McCaleb, who has lived in Humphreys County all her life. "You look now and you see all the debris, so many people who haven't been able to bring their houses back."
For that reason, Thanksgiving takes on a whole new meaning for those who are still recovering or simply thankful to be alive.
Christmas donations needed 3 months after Waverly floods
"I was actually in the hospital," said McCaleb. "I had COVID, and so I was in the hospital and I kept getting the dings on my telephone, saying there's flooding."
On August 21, McCaleb and hundreds of others in the area were given a harsh reminder of just how fragile life can be. Twenty people were killed that day by flood waters. Hundreds of homes and businesses were destroyed, and families were left terrified with nowhere to turn.
"My son was on top of a roof waiting to be rescued," said McCaleb. "My son, my daughter-in-law and my granddaughter…then the phone went dead.
Later, McCaleb found out her house was also destroyed. Two of her three children also lost their homes.
"It was devastating because I was already exhausted and I didn't feel good, and then to worry about my family on top of that roof. I was just praying," said McCaleb. "I was crying out to God to please help my family, to please protect my family."
McCaleb's family was protected. All of her family members survived the flood despite losing their homes.
"I just started saying, 'Thank you God for everything!'" McCaleb said while holding back tears.
So, instead of wallowing in depression, McCaleb made a decision – to give back.
"Whenever I got sick and then the flood, I fell into a depression. I don't know how to describe it. So, for about 18 days I had a big battle. So, I started crying out to God," said McCaleb. "When I started reading my Bible, I started hearing, 'Go serve people. Go serve people.'"
McCaleb spent Thanksgiving serving a full course Thanksgiving meal to anyone who wanted it. It's a concept started by her friend and fellow church member Kathy Klein.
"I really think it came from the Lord," said Klein. "But, I don't take credit for it because of everyone of these people here."
Klein says the idea came to her three years ago and kept her awake at night.
"I said, 'Lord, if you will let me get some sleep, I will try tomorrow,'" said Klein.

She did. The Community Thanksgiving has been going strong ever since.
"I love to see people giving back and I love to see people coming together," said Klein. "When you hear about all the crap in the world and then you walk in this place, you can see it and you can feel it, and it's like man, there is a lot of stuff going on, but there's good stuff too."
Last year, the event served more than 300 people during COVID. Any leftovers are given to hospital workers and first responders.

'The Surgeon's Photograph' – the archetypical symbol of 'The Loch Ness Monster' or 'Nessie', the very icon of the mystery, has become one of the world's best-known images, almost as instantly recognizable as the 'Mona Lisa', and perhaps even more enigmatic.
Many have looked at the photograph, few have look into it.
David Martin and Alastair Boyd believe they have looked into it, and seen through it.
Yet it required the chance discovery of a 1975 newspaper article to reveal the trail of clues that led to the unfolding of this drama: the interview with the man who made the model monster, his part in this elaborate hoax, and the truth behind what is, arguably, the most famous photograph in the world.

THE WITCHER's Composers on Creating the Show's Music
by Michael Walsh
Feb 19 2020 • 10:45 AM
I loved everything— and I do mean everything—about season one of The Witcher on Netflix, especially its soundtrack. The show featured both authentic Medieval music and contemporary tracks, with a little bit of everything in between. And all 55 tracks came from composers Sonya Belousova and Giona Ostinelli. Nerdist had a chance to speak with them about the process, which wasn't exactly what you'd expect. It included playing around with a whole lot of very strange instruments and writing for scenes that hadn't actually been filmed.
If you think "Toss a Coin To Your Witcher" has been stuck in your head for a while, they've been living with it for a lot longer. Including in some very different forms fans will be demanding to hear.
Rhapsody PR
How long did you work on the soundtrack?
Sonya Belousova: It was quite an unusual process, because normally as composers we would get involved during post-production. In the case of The Witcher, there were a lot of songs and dances we had to write beforehand, because they had to be prepared for the shoot.
We started writing October 2018. And during that period, even before we started scoring the picture, we wrote all the Jaskier songs and all the dances. They had to be choreographed for the shoot.
Around April, we started scoring to picture and we finished in October of '19. So it was a whole year for us. We wrote over eight hours of music. That includes the whole score, songs that we wrote and produced, and folk tunes and dances.
How many songs did you write before they filmed the scenes?
Giona Ostinelli: I think we wrote an hour of music before. Also, we didn't just write one version. We wrote around four or five versions per song.
SB: Because at that point we were still trying to find the appropriate balance and the appropriate sound for the character and for the show. And we wanted to give [showrunner] Lauren [Hissrich] the whole spectrum of different versions. From something very medieval and very historically accurate, to something very contemporary. So for each song we had five to seven versions.
SB: We like writing suites in order to find the right balance, and to kind of figure out the music thematically. So then by the time we score the picture, we already have a road map and it's about structuring that roadmap in context of every particular episode. We wrote thematic suites for each character. We had a suite for Geralt, Ciri, Yennefer, and for Nilfgard. That was at least another 30 to 40 minutes of music.
When you are writing music for a scene that hasn't even been filmed, what kind of unique challenges does that present? What kind of opportunities does that provide?
GO: Honestly, we love it, because you just go from the script, so you let your imagination go wild. And you usually come up with ideas that, if you are scoring the picture, maybe you don't [come up with] because you're a bit bound by the pictures. Here you don't really have boundaries. It's just the boundaries of your imagination and the script, so you just go. It's like writing an album, almost.
And also it's very great for the producers, show runners, and directors, because this way everybody gets a chance to hear the material before the scenes and they get accustomed to it. They get familiar with the music. Then when you adjust it for the picture, they already know the music and you can have conversations about it, about the themes, how to use them, what themes to mix with other themes, and all those things.
Sonya and Giona wanted to create an authentic medieval sound for the show, which they did by using historical instruments—many custom made—from around the world, including from China, Malaysia, Russia, Hungary, Brazil, and the United States. They personally used over 60 instruments on the soundtrack, a list that includes a hurdy-gurdy, psaltery, harmonium, Shruti box, and a Kamancheh.
SB: We wanted to make sure there are places where we use (the instruments) in a traditional historical concept, how they would normally be used. And there are places where we use these same instruments in a much more contemporary manner. I wanted to find that balance between something more historically accurate, and something much more contemporary and groovy—more energetic and fun—by utilizing the same instruments.
What did you listen to for inspiration?
SB: I don't think we listened to anything in particular, because when we start every new project we want to start completely fresh and we don't really dive into other sources and listen to other music for inspiration, because if we do that…
GO: It doesn't become original.
SB: We wanted to start this completely fresh, and because the script is just so diverse and so unique, and we have this Witcher universe that's populated by witchers, humans, elves, and monsters. All these diverse creatures. The script itself was the main inspiration point for us. And obviously, playing around with all these fun instruments and recording all the various soloist and ensembles that we recorded.
GO: Playing around with the instruments is a great place for inspiration. You play around with it and you're like, "Oh this is cool, let's try this, let's try that."
Playing around with "weird" instruments led to some of the best tracks on the show.
SB: In episode three, during the whole Striga fight and Yennefer's dramatic transformation, we had a melody, which was Geralt's theme. It was played on a hurdy-gurdy, but it was distorted. We ran it through some amplifiers, supplied a lot of different plugins, so it literally sounds like an electric guitar. And a lot of people asked us what that instrument was and if it was an electric guitar. No, it was not; it was a distorted hurdy-gurdy, just to kind of prove the point that every instrument's capabilities are really unlimited if you push your imagination.
How would you describe the tone and the feeling you were going for to somebody who might not be well-versed in musical composition?
SB: It's very diverse. For this soundtrack, not only [did we do] the background score, but we also wrote and produced songs and folk tunes and dances. So as the Witcher universe is very diverse, I think our goal for the soundtrack was to reflect the diversity in various styles, in various genres, and various instrumentations that we chose to use by recording different virtual soloists and collaborating with artists.
GO: You can find there's a little bit of every genre in a way.
SB: If you're looking for something very traditional and medieval, it's definitely represented there. If you're looking for something much more contemporary, it's definitely there. If you're looking for songs, we have a lot of songs.
GO: It's a balance. But you know, it can be easily transformed into a rock metal song, or it can be easily transformed into something else.
SB: Fun fact about "Toss a Coin to Your Witcher." We're currently all over the Billboard charts, and we're currently #1 in Rock (Digital Song Sales), which I find very funny because you wouldn't really think about it as a rock song.
Did you have any idea "Toss a Coin To Your Witcher" would be such a breakout hit?
GO: When we first wrote it, it got stuck in our head for forever. It's still stuck in our heads.
SB: When you write something, and when this material is just stuck in your head, that kind of proves the point that the material is catchy and it's worth exploring.
GO: Now, were we expecting it was going to blow up to this extent? You can never predict this.
SB: I mean, we knew that it was going to attract attention because of all of the context. It was supposed to be this epic song to lead us out of the episode. So we knew it was going to attract attention. But again, to this proportion? Hell no.
What do you think of all of the different covers people have recorded?
GO: We love them. We are having a lot of fun watching them. And it's a pleasure to see how much fans are enjoying the music, especially with the songs. They are having fun with it the same way we had fun with it because we had a lot of passion for it.
SB: We worked with this song for seven months, because we wrote it in November. We wrote around seven versions, then we finally settled on the right version. Then we had all the demos prepared and I sang on all the demos. Then once everything was approved, then they went out and shot the song.
It was right on the 1st of July. We had to fly to London and we recorded it over there with Joey [Batey, who plays Jaskier]. And then the rest of the post-production of the song was completed here in our studio in Los Angeles. So we were with it for a very long time, and throughout this whole time it was there in our heads.
You said there were seven versions. How different are those other versions?
GO: Different. [Laughs]
SB: That was one of the very first songs that we wrote for the show, so we wanted to give Lauren the whole spectrum for something very medieval and very historically accurate, but something super, super contemporary.
GO: So yes, in our vault there is a very medieval version. Yes, specifically to The Witcher, a very, very contemporary one, even a rap version.
SB: We do have a rap version.
GO: Yes, we do have it.
Wait, you really have a rap version of "Toss a Coin to Your Witcher?"
SB: We do.
Are you going to ever release it?
SB: We'll see, we had an idea to maybe include it at some point as a bonus track. There was one version, which was even more rock. But that was before they shot, so we had to readjust it a little bit once the editor put together the cut. There was another version which was very, very medieval, very traditional, following all these traditional rules. There was another version which was very sad. Yeah, there were a lot of different versions and I'm glad that we settled on this one because I feel like it was just the perfect balance of every scene.
My favorite thing about "Toss a Coin to Your Witcher" is the way it starts off like a real bard singing a song by himself, and then it builds to a full orchestra that's very powerful.
SB: Yes. This was one of the ideas that we actually discussed in depth with Jenny Klein, who is the writer of the episode. She also wrote the lyrics. And the idea was exactly this. So that would start out as something very, very simple, just words and lute. And then kind of continue building, building, building, and building and becoming this huge epic anthem that takes us out of the episode.
GO: It's Jaskier's transformation from a simple bard to the Freddie Mercury of The Continent.
SB: Jokingly, between all of us here, we call Jaskier the Freddie Mercury of The Continent. Because we want you to think of him as this kind of rock star. Which is why the first song when he sings, when you just meet his character, it's not as evolved. It's basically quite simple, voice and lute. And the reason for that is we wanted to create a certain transformation for this character from the time when we meet him to the end of episode two where when "Toss a Coin to Your Witcher" comes in.
What should we expect from the season two soundtrack?
GO: We haven't really given a thought about it.
SB: They are just about to start shooting, so it's still a little bit too early to talk about.
GO: Here's the big conundrum for us. For the first season we learned how to play over 60 instruments. Now we feel the pressure for next season. Is it going to be more than 60 instruments? Oh my goodness, we need to find so many instruments. So right now it's a lot of research to find interesting instruments no one has heard before. And we even have to have some custom made.

'A system of chaos': Supervised Consumption Services Review Committee releases findings
The Alberta government released the findings of a highly anticipated review of the social and economic impacts of supervised consumption sites for drug users on Thursday.
UCP-appointed panel assessed impact of sites on crime rates, social order, property values and business

The UCP-appointed Supervised Consumption Services Review Committee was tasked last summer with looking into the effects of the sites on crime rates, social order, property values and businesses.
The panel did not consider the impact such facilities have on harm reduction, establishing new sites, provincial funding or housing in its review.
Associate minister of Mental Health and Addictions Jason Luan and Justice Minister Doug Schweitzer addressed the press ahead of the committee's remarks at Calgary's McDougall Centre.
"I'm deeply troubled with some of the findings of the report," Luan said.
"What we heard was a wake-up call. From increases in social disorder, to discarded needles ... what we see is a system of chaos."
Needle debris, quality control among UCP priorities: Luan
Luan said that in the wake of the report's findings, the government's priorities would include dealing with issues of needle debris, delivering quality control measures, and working closely across ministries to implement a "fair, firm and compassionate" approach toward addiction issues.
Rod Knecht, the committee's chair, said that the committee engaged 19,000 Albertans through public town halls, email submissions, and meetings with key stakeholders to compile its final report, which was submitted at the end of December 2019.
Committee vice-chair Geri Bemister-Williams said the "vast majority" of Albertans that they heard from care about their communities, neighbourhoods and neighbours, and "spoke passionately" about the changes in their neighbourhoods since the consumption sites opened.
Some businesses and stakeholders, Bemister-Williams said, told the committee that they had no input in the consultation process for the development of the safe consumption sites.
Committee calls overdose reversal success rate into question
The committee members also said that it found supervised consumption sites have cited "inaccurate" rates of reversing overdoses.
A report published by the Alberta Community Council on HIV last year found that Alberta's supervised consumption sites have had a 100-per-cent success rate. But Bemister-Williams suggested that the committee found that the way overdose reversals are tracked and reported by safe consumption sites are not consistent.
She suggested that some recorded overdoses were minor events and involved the administration of oxygen rather than Naloxone.
Watch an excerpt from Bemister-Williams' exchange with reporters below:
Alberta safe consumption site panel
CBC News Calgary
11 months agoVideo
Geri Bemister-Williams, vice-chair of the panel, has a tense exchange with reporters asking about her concerns over "adverse effects" reporting from the sites. 1:39
"In many cases, 'adverse events' — even if non-life threatening or minor — are reported as overdoses, and the term 'reversal' is used when the response was a simple administration of oxygen," Bemister-Williams said.
"This leaves the public with an inference that without these sites, thousands of people would fatally overdose or no longer be alive."
When pressed for details and asked whether the actions were life-saving, Bemister-Williams did not answer and said she was not there "to make assumptions."
CBC News referenced the report directly to clarify these statements, but Bemister-Williams quoted it directly; it also does not specify whether or not the oxygen that was provided in these instances was life-saving.
When asked at the press conference if this meant the previously cited 100 per cent success rate in reversing overdoses had been exaggerated, Bemister-Williams would only say that the committee found it was inaccurate.
Deaths around sites
Bemister-Williams told the press that the report's findings included a dramatic increase in opioid-related deaths in the areas surrounding the safe consumption sites.
"Although there have been no fatalities at any of the sites, opioid-related deaths increased within the immediate vicinity of the sites after they opened," Bemister-Williams said.
In a reference to the city of Lethbridge, she cited a 400 per cent increase in fatalities around some sites. According to the data in the report, the fatalities have jumped from one person to five people.
However, the title of the data table used within the report that reflects an increase of deaths surrounding the sites appears to include deaths by alcohol poisoning as well was drugs.
A breakdown of these figures was not provided within the report.

Crime, Bemister-Williams said, had "increased substantially" near most of the sites, and told the media that citizens reported undertaking measures to feel safer "on their own" like building fences and installing lights.
Every community reported an increase in needle debris on public and private property, Bemister-Williams said, as well as feces and garbage.
"Despite efforts to address needle debris … many community members still felt this was woefully inadequate. Of note, several schools near the sites have implemented needle pickup committees," she said.
"We heard from families that they were avoiding public parks altogether."
In conclusion, Bemister-Williams said the committee "recommends the government consider the accounts of Albertans who took the time to share their views."
Committee members Bemister-Williams and Knecht — along with ministers Luan and Schweitzer — did not take further questions after the press conference.
Review sparked debate, concern across province
A review of safe injection sites was a United Conservative Party election promise that sparked a fiery political — and ideological — debate in Alberta.
Last year, Luan said the panel would fulfil the UCP's pledge to correct what it saw as the failure of the previous NDP government to take into consideration the effect that supervised consumption sites have on the areas where they are set up.
Some sites became controversial as reports reflected an increases in crime and calls for law enforcement services that coincided with their opening.
In January, Lethbridge NDP MLA Shannon Phillips told the Canadian Press that closing the site in her city would be devastating.
"People would die," Phillips said.

Front-line support workers also appealed to the panel for support during meetings across the province.
Trent Daley, a support worker with the George Spady Society, told a government review panel in September, "This is a non-partisan issue. This is about, 'Do these people deserve to live?'"
There are currently seven sites across the province — in Edmonton, Calgary and Lethbridge — with proposals for one each in Red Deer and Medicine Hat, and another one in Calgary.
Report underscores concerns: Kenney
Earlier this year, Premier Jason Kenney said that it's possible Alberta could close or relocate some supervised drug consumption sites.
He said in Calgary on Jan. 21 that he had seen the panel's preliminary report.
"It underscores the concerns that we have had about the negative impact on people and on communities as a result of at least some of the drug injection sites," Kenney said.
"They're now more than injections … they're just illegal drug sites. I think we see pretty much everywhere a marked increase in crime in the area of those sites and social disorder and negative human consequences."
The panel and its members

The full list of the panel members are:
Rod Knecht, who retired as Edmonton's chief of police last year.
Vice-chair Geri Bemister-Williams, who is a human behavioural scientist and post-secondary instructor.
Dr. Ray Baker, who specializes in occupational addiction medicine and recovery-oriented continuing care.
Steve Cormack, who served 24 years with the RCMP.
Dr. Charl Els, a psychiatrist, addiction specialist and occupational physician.
Joan Hollihan, who lost her 16-year-old son to an apparent fentanyl overdose.
Paul Maxim, a former professor of economics at Wilfrid Laurier University.
Dr. Rob Tanguay, the founder and medical director of a post-surgical pain outpatient program.
The panel also doesn't include a member from south of Calgary, despite Lethbridge reportedly having the busiest supervised consumption site in North America.

What Is Computer Sabotage?

Tired of Endless Searching? Find Computer Sabotage on TheWeb.
Computer sabotage involves deliberate attacks intended to disable computers or networks for the purpose of disrupting commerce, education and recreation for personal gain, committing espionage, or facilitating criminal conspiracies, such as drug and human trafficking. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, computer sabotage costs billions of dollars in legal fees to recover damages such as identity theft and to repair vital infrastructure that serves hospitals, banks and 911 services.
Committing computer sabotage can be as simple as deliberately infecting a computer with a virus to keep authorized users from logging in. Although not always, much computer sabotage involves the use of malware, such as bots, worms, viruses and other spyware, which enables hackers to gain illegal access to personal and corporate computers. Apart from theft of services and wire fraud, such sabotage facilitates pedophiles who stalk children online at school and at home, identity thieves who duplicate fake IDs for illegal immigrants, and home invasion rings and other criminals who use malware to identify potential victims.
Protecting yourself from computer sabotage means taking proactive measures to guard hardware and software. Besides installing and maintaining a firewall and antivirus software, establish separate user IDs for each person who uses a computer. Never post lists of usernames and passwords, and take the time to change passwords as soon as an account shows signs of having been tampered with. When using a public, school or workplace computer, always report lags and aberrant performance to alert support staff that the system may have been compromised.
