Akpaida, V. O. A. and Anyasi, F. I. and Uzairue, Stanley Idiake and Idim, A. I. (2018) Determination of an Outdoor Path Loss Model and Signal Penetration Level in Some Selected Modern Residential and Office Apartments in Ogbomosho, Oyo State, Nigeria. Journal of Engineering Research and Reports, 1 (2). pp. 1-25.
This article involves the site specific determination of an outdoor path loss model and Signal penetration level in some selected modern residential and office apartments in Ogbomosho, Oyo State. Measurements of signal strength and its associated location parameters referenced globally were carried out. Propagation path loss characteristics of Ogbomosho were investigated using three different locations with distinctively different yet modern building materials. Consequently, received signal strength (RSS) was measured at a distance d in meters, from appropriate base stations for various environments investigated. The data were analyzed to determine the propagation path loss exponent, signal penetration level and path loss characteristics. From calculations, the average building penetration losses were, 5.93dBm, 6.40dBm and 6.1dBm outside the hollow blocks B1, solid blocks B2 and hollow blocks mixed with pre cast asbestos B3, buildings respectively with a corresponding path loss exponent values of, 3.77, 3.80 and 3.63. Models were developed and validated, and used to predict the received power inside specific buildings. Moreover, the propagation models developed for the different building types can be used to predict the respective signal level within the building types, once the transmitter – receiver distance is known. The readings obtained from the developed models were compared with both the measured values and values computed using some existing models with satisfactory results obtained.

Сэмюэл Джаред Тейлор (родился 15 сентября 1951 года) — американский писатель и общественный деятель, редактор интернет-журнала American Renaissance, основанного Тейлором в 1990 году.

Тейлор является президентом American Renaissance, Фонда Нового века, через который были опубликованы многие его книги. Он является бывшим членом совета Occidental Quarterly и бывшим директором Института национальной политики, базирующегося в Виргинии. Он также является членом правления и представителем Совета консервативных граждан.

Средства массовой информации и исследователи расизма в Соединенных Штатах обвиняют Тейлора и многие из связанных с ним организаций в пропаганде расистских идеологий.

Ранняя жизнь и образование
Тейлор родился 15 сентября 1951 года в Кобе, Япония, в семье христианских миссионеров из Виргинии. Он жил в Японии до 16 лет и посещал японские школы до 12 лет, свободно владея японским языком.

Он учился в Йельском университете, где в 1973 году получил степень бакалавра философии. Затем Тейлор провел три года во Франции и получил степень магистра в области международной экономики в Sciences Po в 1978 году.

В течение периода, который прервал его студенческие годы в колледже, он работал и много путешествовал по Западной Африке, совершенствуя свой французский язык во франкоязычных регионах континента. Тейлор свободно владеет французским, японским и английским языками.

Карьера
С 1978 по 1981 год Тейлор работал специалистом по международному кредитованию в корпорации Manufacturers Hanover Corporation, а с 1983 по 1988 год — редактором журнала PC Magazine на Западном побережье. Он также преподавал японский язык в Гарвардской летней школе и работал переводчиком в зале суда.

В 1980-х годах, в период сильного экономического роста страны, Тейлор считался «экспертом по Японии» в средствах массовой информации. В 1983 году он опубликовал хорошо принятую книгу о японской культуре и деловых обычаях под названием «Тени восходящего солнца: критический взгляд на японское чудо.» Критикуя некоторые аспекты японской культуры, Тейлор утверждал, что японское общество было более успешным в решении социальных проблем, чем Запад, с более низким уровнем преступности и аналогичным или более высоким уровнем жизни.

На заре своего тридцатилетия Тэйлор начинает пересматривать свои либеральные и космополитические воззрения, обычно исповедуемые в его рабочей среде. Он пришел к глубокому убеждению, что человеческие существа являются племенными по своей природе и чувствам, и что они отличаются талантом, темпераментом и способностями.

В середине 1980-х годов он проявил интерес к новым областям эволюционной биологии и эволюционной психологии, особенно к спорным работам Ричарда Линна, Дж. Филиппа Раштона и Гельмута Нюборга, и пришел к убеждению, что различия между людьми в значительной степени имеют генетическое происхождение и поэтому квази-неизменны. Все социальные чудеса Японии, утверждал Тейлор к 1991 году под псевдонимом Стивен Хауэлл, были, по крайней мере, частично результатом расовой и культурной однородности Японии.

В ноябре 1990 года, он основал и опубликовал первый выпуск Американского Ренессанса, ежесменную газету, основанного на подписке белых сторонников превосходства. Он создал Фонд «Новый век» в 1994 году, чтобы помочь Американскому Ренессансу. Многие из ранних статей были написаны самим Тейлором и были направлены на то, чтобы поставить защиту белой расы на более высокий интеллектуальный уровень, чем дискурс традиционного Ку-клукс-клана или белого скинхеда, который доминировал в средствах массовой информации в то время. Журнал прекратил свое печатное издание в 2012 году, чтобы сосредоточиться на ежедневном формате веб-сайта.

В 1992 году, Тейлор опубликовал книгу под названием «Вымощенные благими намерениями», в которой он критикует то, что он считает неразумной политикой социального обеспечения, которая способствовала экономическому положению афроамериканского низшего класса. В отличие от многих его статей об Американском Ренессансе, эта работа избегает генетических рассуждений из-за опасений, что он не сможет опубликовать её, если будет говорить о различиях в IQ. В 1994 году, он был вызван группой защиты в Форт-Уэрт, штат Техас, для дачи экспертных показаний по расовым аспектам дела. До дачи показаний в суде, Тейлор представленный «Вашингтон пост» как «эксперт по расовым отношениям и автор», назвал молодых чернокожих «самыми опасными людьми в Америке» и добавил: "Это должно быть принято во внимание при оценке того, было ли реалистично для [обвиняемого] думать, что это была ситуация «убить или быть убитым.»

Взгляды
Тейлор был описан как белый националист, белый супремасист и расист группами гражданских лиц, средствами массовой информации, учеными, изучающими расизм в США, и другими. Тейлор «решительно отвергает» то, что его называют расистом, и утверждает, что он является «расистом, который верит в расовый реализм».

Он также оспаривает ярлык белого превосходства, предпочитая называть себя «белым защитником», и утверждает, что его взгляды на национальность и расу «умеренны, здравы и полностью соответствуют взглядам большинства великих государственных деятелей и президентов прошлого Америки». Тейлор сказал, что не знает, что значит «белый националист.»

Новостные репортажи о Тейлоре связывают его с альт-правыми.

Раса
Тейлор — сторонник расовой теории и сегрегации. Тейлор также утверждает, что существуют расовые различия в интеллекте между различными этно-расовыми группами по всему миру.

Тейлор утверждает, что чернокожие, как правило, менее умны, чем латиноамериканцы, в то время как латиноамериканцы, как правило, менее умны, чем белые, а белые, как правило, менее умны, чем восточно-азиаты: «Я думаю, что азиаты объективно превосходят белых практически по любой мере, которую вы можете придумать с точки зрения того, что является ингредиентами успешного общества. Это не значит, что я хочу, чтобы Америка стала Азиатской. Я думаю, что каждый народ имеет право быть самим собой, и это становится ясно, говорим ли мы об Ириан-Джае или о Тибете, если уж на то пошло.»

Тейлор описывает себя как защитника интересов белых. Он утверждает, что его издание «Американский ренессанс» было основано для того, чтобы дать возможность высказаться в защиту таких проблем, и утверждает, что его работа аналогична работе других групп, отстаивающих этнические или расовые интересы. Американский ренессанс, однако, был описан как белое супрематическое издание и «форум для писателей, пренебрегающих способностями меньшинств».

В журнале в 2005 году он заявил: «Черные и белые-разные. Когда чернокожие полностью предоставлены самим себе, западная цивилизация — любая цивилизация — исчезает». Статья 2005 года в Pittsburgh Post-Gazette описала Тейлора как «расиста в обличье эксперта.»

Тейлор представляет свой сегрегационистский проект как основанный на гражданских свободах и свободе ассоциаций, и описывает санкционированную правительством сегрегацию как морально несправедливую. Он считает, что все антидискриминационные законы «начиная с Закона о гражданских правах 1964 года» являются неприемлемым расширением федеральной власти. Тейлор также выступает против законов против смешанных браков как посягающих на свободу граждан.

Тейлор считает, что многорасовое американское общество «обречено на провал» и что небелые группы не должны составлять значительную часть американского населения, особенно латиноамериканцы, африканцы, афро-карибцы и жители Ближнего Востока, хотя он также включает в себя северных азиатов, которых он высоко ценит. Таким образом, он поддерживает иммиграционную политику, которая будет благоприятствовать белым иммигрантам по сравнению с другими группами. Тейлор сказал: «Белые заслуживают родины», и когда его спросили об иммиграционных законах США, принятых в 1965 году в соответствии с Законом Харта-Келлера, он сказал, что «Белые совершают ужасную ошибку, приводя в движение силы, которые сведут их к меньшинству.»

Тейлор поддерживает теорию заговора белого геноцида и принимал Suidlanders на своем подкасте AmRen, чтобы обсудить эту тему, поощряя пожертвования в южноафриканскую организацию. Он рекомендовал своим последователям «Лагерь святых» Жана Распая.

Отношение к антисемитизму
Тейлор приветствует евреев в своей организации и рассматривает американских евреев как потенциальных могущественных союзников. Он никогда не стремился ни приветствовать, ни изгнать антисемитские голоса, и несколько ораторов еврейского происхождения участвовали в конвенциях Американского Ренессанса. Эта позиция вызвала напряженность в отношениях с крайне правыми антисемитскими организациями, утверждающими, что евреи проникают в их движения.

В 2006 году на одном съезде вспыхнуло столкновение между теоретиком антисемитского заговора Дэвидом Дюком и Майклом Хартом, еврейским астрофизиком, разделяющим многие идеи Тейлора. «Форвард» сообщал, что Тейлор: «пытается де-нацифицировать движение и расширить круг белых националистов, включив в него евреев европейского происхождения. Но для многих из крайне правых убрать ненависть к евреям из белого национализма-все равно что убрать Христа из Рождества — святотатство.»

Южный центр по борьбе с бедностью (SPLC) комментирует, что Тейлор необычен среди радикальных правых в «его отсутствии антисемитизма.» Ученый Кэтлин Р. Арнольд утверждает, что «в отличие от многих других белых сторонников превосходства, Тейлор не является антисемитом и фактически призывает евреев присоединиться к его борьбе… однако многие в белом супрематистском/антииммиграционном движении не согласны с Тейлором… и он был под огромным давлением, чтобы разорвать связи с еврейской общиной.»

Дональд Трамп
Тейлор поддерживал президентскую кампанию Дональда Трампа и записывал робо-коллы в поддержку Трампа перед собранием в Айове и первичными выборами в Нью-Гэмпшире.

Тейлор присутствовал на инаугурации Трампа с VIP-билетами в первом ряду, и он описал это событие как «признак растущего белого сознания».

Sergei Prokofiev: 125th Birthday on 23 April 2016
Sergei Prokofiev is, alongside Dmitri Shostakovich and Igor Stravinsky, one of the most important Russian composers of the 20th century. He created such works as the ballets "Cinderella" and "Romeo and Juliet", the children's concert classic "Peter and the Wolf", symphonies and numerous instrumental and vocal works, some of which are amongst the world's most frequently performed works of Russian music.
Prokofiev was born on 23 April 1891 and studied composition, piano and conducting at the St. Petersburg Conservatory from 1904 to 1914. In 1918 he left his homeland with the permission of the Soviet authorities. In Paris, where he finally settled in 1923, the famous impresario Serge Diaghilev and the dancer and choreographer Sergei Lifar produced his early ballets between 1921 and 1932. Prokofiev returned definitively to Russia with his family in 1936. Despite his efforts to adhere to the official aesthetic maxims of the Party, his works did not always meet with unqualified approval. In 1948 he was found guilty, alongside Shostakovich, Akhmatova, Pasternak, Eisenstein and others, of "formalism" as a result of the repressive cultural campaign introduced by Andrei Zhdanov. Prokofiev's instrumental works rapidly found a place in the repertoires of renowned interpreters. Alongside his seven symphonies, Prokofiev's worldwide fame is based on the ballet music to the Shakespeare drama "Romeo and Juliet" and the symphonic children's fairytale "Peter and the Wolf". He succeeds in combining the most tender lyricism and filigree melodies with a bold harmonic language, vehement dissonances and often piercing rhythms.

The Zauner Files
Acclaimed indie rock musician and South Eugene grad performs at inauguration ball, releases memoir
Music by William KennedyPosted on 01/28/2021
The night before President Joe Biden's inauguration, acclaimed indie rock musician and South Eugene High School graduate Michelle Zauner contributed a live rendition of her song, "Everybody Wants to Love You!" to Breaking Barriers, an inaugural ball and virtual celebration presented by RUN AAPI, a voter outreach campaign building political power among young Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
Of mixed Korean American heritage, Zauner, better known as Japanese Breakfast, was surprised and honored when asked to participate in the event. She chose the song from her 2016 debut Psychopomp and a fixture of her band's live set for both its brevity and jubilant tone.
"It was nice to get the band back together and do a socially-distanced live recording," Zauner tells me from Brooklyn, where she now lives. "It felt like some lightness in a very dark year," she says.
With the inauguration behind her, 2021 looks busy for Zauner, with new music from Japanese Breakfast expected sometime this year after being bumped from 2020 on account of the pandemic. And that's not all. Zauner's first book, Crying in H Mart, is also slated for April.
Touching on Zauner's childhood and her experience growing up Korean American, Crying in H Mart is a memoir of Zauner's time in 2014 back in Eugene and caring for her mother who was dying from cancer.
Portions of what would become the book first appeared as essays in both Glamour magazine and the New Yorker in 2016 and 2018. "From that, I had a lot of enthusiasm around me to turn it into a larger piece," Zauner says.
With a background in creative writing, Zauner resisted nonfiction writing for quite some time. Although she says she feels too young to have a memoir, writing the book helped her process the loss of her mother, and provided a road map for who she will be going forward.
"I needed to write about it to better understand it myself, and offer it to people around me," she says.
With a busy 2021, Zauner was far from dormant in 2020. In October, she released the EP pop songs 2020 with Ryan Galloway from the band Crying, the first EP from Zauner's side project, Bumper. Written and recorded in the early days of the pandemic, the EP is synth-heavy, with a lighter and poppier tone than the airy, guitar-forward indie rock Japanese Breakfast is known for.
While working on Bumper, Zauner was developing music for a video game called Sable. "A lot of it is MIDI and stuff you do on a computer," she says, and the Bumper project flexed many of those same muscles but in a pop music format. Zauner wanted to try something immediate, a project she could make and release quickly. In a dark time, she says, "I wanted to do something fast and fun."
Returning to her most well-known music project, Zauner says the first two Japanese Breakfast records are primarily about grief. The upcoming release, she says, is much more joyful.
"I wanted to write about a different part of my life," she explains. "I wrote this whole book about grief. I didn't feel like I needed to write another album about grief. I think it's some of my best work."
Crying in H Mart is out in April wherever books are sold. The debut Bumper EP pop songs 2020 is currently available on all major music streaming platforms. New music from Japanese Breakfast is expected sometime in 2021.

After defeating the Utah Jazz 103-88, the Denver Nuggets now post a record of 8-1 and are perfect at home this season with a 5-0 record.
With the win, Denver is just a half game behind the Golden State Warriors for first place in the Western Conference. The complimentary basketball Denver has played with early in the season has been huge in their success. Doing it with defense and timely offense, the Nuggets have brought life back to a city that has not seen playoff basketball in five seasons. Saturday's victory over Utah was another step in the right direction and there is certainly a lot to dissect in yet another big Nuggets' victory.
Once again, the Nuggets bench unit provided them with a spark when they needed it most. After trailing by five at the end of the third quarter, Denver desperately needed life with the bench unit checking in. They certainly got it as the Nuggets finished the game on a 35-15 run in the fourth quarter to capture their eighth victory of the season with the bench unit contributing to most of that production.
That sense of urgency was at an all-time high as the bench unit of Jamal Murray, Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez, Trey Lyles, and Mason Plumlee played with tons of life on both ends of the floor.
Beasley was instrumental in their success (we'll get to him later) as was the play from the other four reserves. They all finished with Denver's highest +/- rating of the night. The Nuggets held the Jazz to 4-17 from the field in the fourth, while Denver was 13-23 from the field and assisted on all 13 of their made baskets. Just an absurd performance from the bench unit that came up big to help the Nuggets stay undefeated at home this season.
This is a normal occurrence in these five takeaways, but Harris continues to play phenomenal night in and night out. Saturday night was no different, as Harris cotinuted to play at a high level on both ends of the floor.
Coming out of the gate, the Nuggets matched Harris up against Utah swingman Joe Ingles. It worked, as Ingles attempted just three shots in the first half scoring no points in his first 13 minutes on the floor. Harris followed his solid first half defense with just as good of offense, scoring 11 points on 4-7 shooting from the field.
Harris' solid play continued into the second half, even with his limited minutes in the fourth quarter. He finished the night with 20 points on 8-13 shooting and just 1-4 from behind the three-point line. Harris is now shooting just 26.8 percent from three this season, but is still finding other ways to score the basketball.
Coupled with his defensive energy, Harris continues to make his mark on this Nuggets team showcasing just how valuable he is on a nightly basis.
It has been the story so far this season and the Nuggets defense was at it yet again on Saturday night. After holding the Jazz to 88 points, the Nuggets have now held their opponents to under 100 opponents five times this season: a feat they accomplished just 17 times all last year. Out of those 17 games, Denver only lost two. This season? They've won all five.
Through nine games, Denver has the third best defensive rating in the NBA at 100.9, only trailing the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics.
Continuing to challenge themselves on that end of the floor will be huge for the Nuggets as they continue to figure things out offensively. As long as they continue to work defensively, their offense will fall into place. Bringing effort every night defensively is huge for this team and it is something they are doing much more regularly this season than in prior seasons. That is why they are off to their best start record-wise since 1974-75, when they were the Denver Rockets of the ABA.
If there was one downside to Saturday nights game, it was the Nuggets continued struggles from behind the arc. Denver shot just 9-28 from three and they are now shooting just 30.6 from distance through nine games. That number is good for just 27th in the NBA, but Denver has been able to overcome their shooting woes with the rest of their play offensively.
Denver has overcome their issues from distance by shooting 46.6 percent from the field, which puts them as 12th in the league. The three-point percentage is a number that should rise though, as players like Harris and Jamal Murray have yet to get it going from deep. Harris is shooting just 26.8 percent from three while Murray is shooting just 27.5 percent from three. Both shot over 38 percent last season, which certainly indicates to how big a slump they are currently in.
It isn't just those players though, as Trey Lyles in shooting just 11.1 percent from distance after shooting 38.1 percent last season. That's a huge drop off from a guy Denver relies on to provide some scoring off the bench. The absence of Will Barton certainly has not helped either as he shot 55.6 percent from three in the two games he played prior to getting hurt.
Luckily for the Nuggets, players like Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez have picked up the slack. After a couple big three's against Utah, Beasley is up to 32 percent from three, while Hernangomez is now third on the team making three pointers at a clip of 45.5 percent.
This proves that triples are falling for some guys, while most of the team is still searching for hope. The Nuggets are still finding ways to win though and once their threes start falling, it will only take the Nuggets' offense to even greater heights.
The key to the Nuggets success off the bench was the clutch shot making of Beasley in the fourth quarter. In the final period, Beasley drained three, three-point shots and did so in the biggest moments of the game.
That trust paid off huge as Beasley's energy in the fourth quarter was the key spark to the bench units success.
Coach Malone said postgame that 'confidence' has been the key to Beasley's success which is evident in the trust he has giving him big minutes in the fourth quarter. The fact that Beasley is making those moments count is key and it is a big reason why Malone said he will continue to be in the rotation moving forward. Having Beasley come off the bench regularly is huge, and it has been a huge reason why the bench unit has had so much success early on in the season.
Just when the Nuggets needed a basket in the fourth quarter, Plumlee was there to give it to them. With the shot clock winding down, the Nuggets back-up big man heaved one from distance, with it going in to give him his first three-point basket of his career.
The three gave life to the Nuggets as the Pepsi Center had officially turned into the loudest it has been in years. After coming into the game 0-18 from distance, the drought was officially over — Plumlee had his three.


Earlier in 2009, Congress passed and President Obama signed legislation requiring several new credit card rules. Those rules were designed to have credit card issuers end what were considered unfair practices, and to protect consumers against further large increases in rates and "hidden" charges. Under the terms of that legislation, most of those new rules were scheduled to take effect on February 22, 2010.
Many in Congress subsequently expressed concern that some credit card companies had raised interest rates and decreased credit limits on many consumers in advance of the effective date of the changes. In response, H.R. 3639 was developed. This bill moved the effective date of certain of the new provisions established in the previously-enacted legislation from dates in 2010 to December 1, 2009. This was a vote on a motion by Rep. Castle (R-DEL) to send the bill back to committee and have language added that would have required that most of those new protections be effective on February 22, 2010, unless the Federal Reserve System certified that credit card companies could implement them by December 1, 2009, the effective date of the bill.
The motion was defeated by a vote of 171-253. One hundred and sixty-eight Republicans and three Democrats voted "aye". Two hundred and forty-seven Democrats and six Republicans voted "nay". As a result, no language was added to H.R. 3639 that would have delayed the implementation of new consumer protections for credit card holders.

Law School Personal Statement Tips
In your personal statement for law school you want to present yourself as intelligent, professional, mature and persuasive. These are the qualities that make a good lawyer, so they're the qualities that law schools seek in applicants.
Your grades and LSAT score are the most important part of your application to law school. But you shouldn't neglect the law school personal statement. Your application essay is a valuable opportunity to distinguish yourself from other applicants, especially those with similar LSAT scores and GPA.
How To Write a Personal Statement for Law School
1. Be specific to each law school.
You'll probably need to write only one basic personal statement, but you should tweak it for each law school to which you apply. There are usually some subtle differences in what each school asks for in a personal statement.
2. Good writing is writing that is easily understood.
Good law students—and good lawyers—use clear, direct prose. Remove extraneous words and make sure that your points are clear. Don't make admissions officers struggle to figure out what you are trying to say.
Read More: Find Your Law School
3. Get plenty of feedback on your law school personal statement.
The more time you've spent writing your personal statement, the less likely you are to spot any errors. You should ask for feedback from professors, friends, parents, and anyone else whose judgment and writing skills you trust. This will help ensure that your statement is clear, concise, candid, structurally sound and grammatically accurate.
4. Find your unique angle.
Who are you? What makes you unique? Sometimes, law school applicants answer this question in a superficial way. It's not enough to tell the admissions committee that you're a straight-A student from Missouri. You need to give them a deeper sense of yourself. And there's usually no need to mention awards or honors you've won. That's what the law school application or your resume is for.
Use your essay to explain how your upbringing, your education, and your personal and professional experiences have influenced you and led you to apply to law school. Give the admissions officers genuine insight into who you are. Don't use cliches or platitudes. The more personal and specific your personal statement is, the better received it will be.

The Neon Carrot will continue to be open Friday nights for happy hour, and Loring will focus on her catering business as well. A second night or two — for a market dinner or paella night — may be added at some point in the future.
For now, the restaurant will be open from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m. Fridays.
The Neon Carrot employed about eight people, and most of them will continue to work in the catering business and at the restaurant.
The Lorings launched The Neon Carrot on South Higuera Street in May 2010. They had previously operated The Park, an upscale restaurant located at Railroad Square, for seven years before closing in 2009 due to economic concerns.
Maegen Loring said that isn't the case with The Neon Carrot, noting that business is healthy.

Now I know that I have MS and now people around me know it, stress occurs. For example my mother who lives nearby. She is nearly 67 years old, very vital and she is very touched by what's going on. She always tries to help me / us. I am very thankful for it. There's one problem: the more she is moved by my illness, the more stress it gives her. At least I think that her physical complaints are result of her stress about my illness. To be clear: she doesn't want to learn mindfulness. She thinks she is too old to change, so… But I tried to find out how stress and emotion work on our brain and on our physical well being. This is what experts taught me about stress and emotion.
Our lower brain centers, such as the amygdala or hypothalamus, were made to detect and respond to threats, such as a tiger about to eat us. They generate an immediate "fight ot flight" response to increase the odds of survival, but they can become hypersensitive, interfering with our ability to experience the present moment in an open and relaxed way. Daily meditation practice can help to correct this imbalance and allow us to retrain our minds so we are less likely to overreact with intense anger or fear to psychological threats, such as rejection. Being less chronically stressed can also help our immune systems function more efficiently to fight off disease.
What could my mother, in her role as a care taker do with being more mindful?
Mindfulness meditation practices can be extremely effective for attaining control over damaging thought patterns. For instance, lots of the psychological suffering that individuals experience is caused either by dwelling over past mistakes and problems, or from worrying about the future. Mindfulness exercises can soothe the discomfort by helping teach the mind to just accept the mistakes of the past, and to work on what they can control right now in order to make the future better. And for lots of people being affected by depression and anxiety, or other forms of neurosis, meditation and mindfulness practices are actually extremely effective at reducing, or curing altogether, these mental ailments, helping them to feel happy again.
Unfortunately my mother doesn't read English so she will never know this. So I am left with being mindful to her. I heard a quote of a priest on a funeral yesterday that could help me a lot: life is about giving and receiving instead of about giving and taking.When you give a lot you receive a lot. I took that in mind and I will do it more than I do now as far as my condition lets me.


Leave a Comment on How Focused Should We Be On the Mistakes of the Past?
There are some who say, "Those who do not study the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them," which is a paraphrase of the saying by George Santayana who actually said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." Though both statements sound very similar, they are in fact very different.
I agree that if we can't remember what happened in the past, we're likely to make the same mistakes. But there's a difference in remembering what happened (so that if a similar situation comes up in the future we can make improved choices), and actively studying and spending a lot of time thinking about the past, and specifically focusing on the mistakes while doing so.
Our children go to school and are forced to study (for years) what we believe humanity's mistakes were and are, and when that's over many go to college and study some more in-depth. In medical school, those studying to become doctors have to focus on illnesses and knowing everything they can about those illnesses and how to treat them. Not surprisingly (due to the Law of Attraction) many of these students start to notice things that are wrong with them and imagine they have the diseases they're studying.
The Law Of Attraction (AKA Essene Mirrors) mirror back to us what we're thinking about and focusing on vibrationally. This is helpful in purifying ourselves of any negative thoughts and habits as spoken about in the Lake of Fire article. The world is our mirror showing us clearly whatever is negative in us and whatever is positive in us. If we notice something we don't like, we manifest it into our world in order that we can understand that we don't like that thing we were focused on. Then we are supposed to wash that away from our minds, and when we wipe it away from our minds, it will stop showing up in the world we see around us.
We don't get mad at a mirror when we see we have dirt on our face, instead we are grateful that it showed us the dirt so we can wipe it off. In the same way we shouldn't be angry that something "bad" happens in our life, because life was just a mirror to show us that there is something negative inside of us that is attracting that into our world. We should be thankful for the incident and focus on the opposite.
One time I was planning on going to the store to buy some produce, and I got a little sick that afternoon, so I laid down, and I blessed the "sickness" and affirmed that everything happens, including this, for my health, wealth, and happiness. I decided to go to the store the next day. So, the next day I went to the store, and everything in the produce section was 25% off for one day only. I could have been mad at the "bad" of feeling sick, but instead I focused on being thankful and found out the next day that it was for my greater wealth (as I saved money), it was for my greater health, (as I bought more healthier foods rather than snack foods in another section), and it was for my greater happiness, (because everything worked out so well).
There are many "bad" things going on this world, and people tend to focus on those things because they say, "We need to know about this because we don't want to have that happen to us." Most people in the world focus on watching the news so that they will be informed on what's going on, but the mainstream media just gives them a constant barrage of things to be angry or fearful about, keeping them in a low vibration. Then some wake up to that and become truthers. Some prime examples of things truthers focus on are: chemtrails, chemicals in the food/water supply, vaccines, false flags, common law / corporations, GMOs, factory farming animal torture, etc.
When I went from me believing the mainstream news to me becoming a truther back in 2015, I actually felt like I got even more fearful, and I know I saw some who became even more angry (at being lied to and abused through the trauma-based mind control of false flags, etc.). Thankfully I leaned on God and trusted Him, and got out of the fearful state, but I see many people in supposed truther community who are still stuck in that negative frequency of fear and/or hate.
I am not saying we can't be knowledgeable about current events, like George Santayana said we have to remember the past so we don't make the same mistakes again. But we shouldn't dwell on the negative things in the world because dwelling on them just attracts more of them.
The "bad" things we run into are reflections of things we don't like about ourselves, and we're supposed to use the world as a mirror to purify ourselves, but instead of doing that we tend to just focus on the things we see and call it reality and we keep getting back more of the same because that's what we're focused on. Sadly those in the truther community tend to chase after negative things so it's no wonder they get into a fearful/angry state of being after a while. But it doesn't have to be that way.
I know that focusing on certain negative things attracts those things to you, because shortly before my deliverance I was led (by demons) to try to figure out what some of my health issues were. I didn't know they were being caused by demons at the time. So, the more and more I studied all my symptoms, the more and more I thought I had worse and worse diseases, and then the worse my symptoms got and it was this huge spiral which was getting out of control, until I was told by someone else, it's getting worse because I'm looking into it. I was becoming a hypochondriac. But it was the result of the Law Of Attraction / Essene Mirrors. I was having my fear of sickness shown to me. So I went through my deliverance (which has a lot to do with going through the Lake of Fire IMHO) and after that I got a lot better very quickly. We just have to accept the negative, repent of it, and choose to do the opposite. I repented of my fear concerning my health and I chose to trust God to get me healthy. I prayed to like healthier foods and to get healthier, and He certainly did that for me.
Focusing our attention on people getting diseases and dying, getting sick from vaccines, etc. is just going to bring those stories into our lives more to show us that we're in a state of either anger, fear, or worry. We need to let go, trust God, and realize everything happens for a reason, and those who get sick have attracted that sickness for a purpose, just like I attracted the sickness I went through. These things are for our learning, but we don't have to be fixated on them. We should learn the lesson, move on focusing on the opposite (people getting healthier in this case), and just remember in the back of our head not to do things that lead to sickness). Our focused attention should be on what we DO want, not what we don't want.
I Don't Like: Animals mistreated & sad.
I Do Like: Happy animals, animals being released, rescued and freed on sanctuary farms. Veganism is growing and people are waking up.
For this example, whenever you see a picture of a sad animal or one being mistreated, turn it off, look away, scroll away, whatever you have to do to not spend time thinking about it, and think about the opposite. For this example, you may want to find videos or images of happy, playful animals or those being taken to sanctuary farms to skip about and enjoy their freedom. People are waking up more and more and according to the fact that we can raise others' vibrations around us and the law of attraction, we will eventually see the world at peace the more we work on ourselves and do this. It will happen, so just be thankful it will happen and focus on appreciating people who are doing this currently.
I Do Like: People waking up to vaccine harm, and nurses sharing their testimonies with others.
So, I share these types of stories that are uplifting, more so than the depressing stories of people being harmed. The more we focus on and share positive stories like this, the more they will happen. We can still be knowledgeable (not sticking our heads in the sand) but also be positively focused rather than being pessimistic.
If what we think about is being attracted to us, why would we want to spend so much of our time thinking about things we don't like about other people, don't like about the world in general? We should instead always try to see the best in people and focus on the positive things happening in the world right now so that we attract more of that into our lives.
So the saying, "Those who do not study the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them," is actually quite wrong. Those who focus on and study intently the mistakes of the past are those who are doomed to repeat those mistakes. But those who understand the mistakes, and move on, focusing on what they want to see in the future, are the ones who won't end up repeating the mistakes of the past and will continue on creating a better tomorrow.

White Nose Syndrome is a 'looming disaster' for bats in Texas
In the eastern United States, millions of bats have died over the past few years from a disease called white nose syndrome. Biologists across the country are racing to find a cure, or at least slow it down. So far there's no evidence of white nose syndrome infecting bats in Texas, but the fungus that causes it is here. The question now is how much it's spread. Cypress Creek is a clear stream that runs through Wimberley in central Texas.…
In suit filed by state, judge rules for newly incorporated city of Double Horn
BURNET — With a stern admonishment to the Texas attorney general's office, state District Judge Evan Stubbs ruled Wednesday for the newly incorporated city of Double Horn in a lawsuit that challenged the validity of the city's status. "Your motion for summary judgment, discovery and all of those things will ultimately cause these defendants a huge expense at the cost of taxpayer dollars," Stubbs said to Ken Richardson, who was representing Paxton's office.

Eminent domain works in Texas — for the takers [Opinion]
Corporate entities that use eminent domain authority to take property often claim the system is working. It does — but only for them. Corporations with this powerful, often abused tool do not have to respect the same rules of transparency that government agencies must observe. They are not required to have public meetings, and eminent domain actions in general do not mandate a good faith offer. At least 1,271 non-governmental entities have a power of eminent domain, but nobody tracks…

Biedermann introduces two quarry bills
Two bills introduced to the Texas legislature earlier this month by Canyon Lake's House Rep. Kyle Biedermann (R-73) could strengthen the state's regulatory authority over mining operations like Vulcan Materials' proposed rock quarry at Highway 46 and FM 3009. One of the bills might even halt development of the controversial 1500-acre open-pit limestone quarry in a high-density residential area of central Comal County, between Bulverde, Spring Branch, Garden Ridge, and New Braunfels. Larry Bailey, Biedermann's policy analyst, led the effort…
Texas Parks & Wildlife halts planned Sandy Creek dredging operation
Landowners Steve Nash and Fermin Ortiz agree on one thing. There is a sand and silt issue in Sandy Creek and Lake LBJ; however they disagree adamantly on what to do about it. "The problem is in the lake. Get it out of the lake," said Ortiz, whose family owns thousands of acres adjacent to Sandy Creek upstream of Lake LBJ in Llano County. Nash, a developer also owns land about two-and-a-half miles upstream of the confluence of where the…


Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has been given a two-game suspension by UEFA for "clearly receiving a yellow card on purpose" in their Champions League win at Ajax.
Captain Ramos was booked in the 89th minute of Madrid's 2-1 first leg last-16 victory in Amsterdam for a foul on Kasper Dolberg. Which meant he would therefore miss the second leg at the Bernabeu.
But if the holders progress past Ajax, the 32-year-old will now miss the first leg of the quarter-finals following UEFA's decision to give him a two-match ban. Which includes the automatic one-match suspension for repeated yellow cards.
Speaking immediately after the first leg, Ramos was quoted as saying he "would be lying" if he denied deliberately earning the booking.
Ramos, however, later used social media to stress it had not been intentional to collect a caution. And he was instead purposefully giving away a free-kick to prevent an Ajax equaliser.
"I'm very surprised about all this. I was referring to forcing the foul, a foul that was inevitable. Not to forcing the booking," the Spaniard said.
"It was a very dangerous counter-attack in the 88th minute. With an open match and the tie as well.

Bengaluru: Radar Speed Signboards will tell you how fast you're going
By Amit Kumar, Bangalore Mirror Bureau | Updated: Sep 11, 2018, 11.04 AM IST
Based on the success of this pilot project, sensors will be installed all over Bengaluru; traffic police might use the data to send challans as well. So better control that right foot
Life in the fast lane on the airport road flyover just got a little slower. From Hebbal to be specific. In a bid to prevent accidents due to over speeding, the Bengaluru Traffic Police has installed Radar Speed Signboards (RSS) that will display the speed of vehicles, so that motorists can slow down and stay within speed limits. As a first instalment, RSS have been installed on either sides of the Hebbal-Yelahanka flyover stretch. Police say that the maximum permissible speed on this flyover stretch is 80 kmph for cars, though most of vehicles are found to be exceeding the speed limit.

Additional Commissioner of Police (traffic and security), R Hithendra said that the RSS have been installed on the Airport Road to begin with but will soon be set up at 50 junctions in the city including Bhadrappa layout, Tumkur road, NICE road stretches, Old Airport road and so on. A senior police officer said, "As of now, we may not be slapping fines for over speeding based on the RSS. But we shall create a database for three months, and later we shall decide on how to go about with the fines."
Sensors which have been installed on the highway can track the approaching vehicle's speed from 50 metres. Currently, only the speed of vehicles in the extreme right lane will be calculated by the RSS.
A police official said, "If you look at the instances of speeding vehicles, then probably the Devanahalli airport road comes first. Though we have two to three interceptors parked on the Airport road, we are unable to control drivers as they only reduce their speed when they're near the interceptors. Currently, we have put up the RSS to help vehicles reduce their speed. We are also looking at other options too. For example, the Nehru Outer Ring Road in Hyderabad where the vehicles are fined if they cross the stretch at speeds beyond permissible limits (based on the vehicle's entry and exit time) and the Tirumala model, where the RSS have been displayed at exit points to tell each vehicle how much time it took to cross the 18 km ghat road. Vehicles crossing the ghat road by over speeding are fined. We strongly believe that these kinds of methods are necessary to cut down accidents which are mostly due to over speeding. More than 1.35 lakh cases of over speeding were registered in Bengaluru alone in 2017.

Sources said that the traffic police also plan to put up RSS at every five to six kilometres before an accident-prone area.
TM Rajesh, a techie said, "I was pleasantly surprised to see the RSS on the Airport road. Though I didn't know that they were merely warning machines, I had slowed down and even alerted my friends. They are now slowing down on the highway too."
Nitya Reddy, a college student said, "Speeding is common on elevated highways as motorists believe that there is no one to book them. However, the police have been parking interceptors at lay bye areas on the Electronics city highway which acts as a deterrent to speeding vehicles. I am sure the RSS facility will also act as a deterrent for the speeding vehicles."
lol what a chewtiyapa, in bengaluru one cannot drive at a speed more than 20-30 km/h due to heavy traffic. then what is the purpose of these radars? smells like a scam
