'Iran have been given a licence to kill': Netanyahu blasts 'historic mistake' of agreeing Tehran nuclear deal as Israeli ministers condemn the 'surrender by the West to the axis of evil'
- Major powers agree historic accord after a decade of on-off negotiations
- Lead negotiator John Kerry says U.S. got 'the good deal that we sought'
- United States, European Union and the UN agree to lift sanctions on Iran
- Tehran accepts long-term curbs on its nuclear programme that the West has suspected was aimed at creating an atomic bomb
- Israel reacts angrily to deal and vows to stop the agreement being ratified
- Global oil prices plunge over possibility Iranian supply will return to market
Israel today launched a blistering attack on Western powers for agreeing a controversial atomic deal with Iran, warning that it gave Tehran 'a sure path to nuclear weapons'.
Under the accord, sanctions imposed by the United States, European Union and United Nations will be lifted in return for Iran agreeing long-term curbs on a nuclear programme that the West has suspected was aimed at creating an atomic bomb.
The European Union called it a 'sign of hope for the entire world', while President Barack Obama insisted the deal meant 'every pathway to a nuclear weapon is cut off'.
His views were echoed by David Cameron who said it was a deal 'that will help to make our world a safer place'.
But this was angrily rejected by Israel, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu branding the deal 'a bad mistake of historic proportions'.

'The good deal that we sought': U.S Secretary of State John Kerry speaks during the final press conference of Iran nuclear talks at Austria International Centre in Vienna where a historic deal was struck with Tehran
On crutches and still nursing a broken leg, Kerry joked that Tuesday was also a historic day for him personally because it was the first time in six weeks he had worn a pair of shoes. He is seen here speaking to French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius and Austrian Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz
U.S. President Barack Obama said the deal meant 'every pathway to a nuclear weapon is cut off'
‘One cannot prevent an agreement when the negotiators are willing to make more and more concessions to those who, even during the talks, keep chanting: “Death to America”,’ he said.
‘Our concern is that the militant Islamic state of Iran is going to receive a sure path to nuclear weapons.’ He added that Iran would receive a ‘cash bonanza of hundreds of billions of dollars’.
Miri Regev, a former military spokeswoman who serves as Israel's culture and sports minister, said it gave Iran a 'licence to kill', adding that it was 'bad for the free world (and) bad for humanity.'
Naftali Bennett, a member of Israel's Inner Security Cabinet, said the nuclear deal with Iran marked 'a new dark and sinister era for the world.'
Speaking to CNN's Chris Cuomo, Bennett said that '20 years down, if a nuclear bomb explodes in London or New York, we'll know that we can trace it down to July 14, 2015.'
'We're preparing for everything we need to do to defend ourselves', Bennett added.
Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely called the deal 'a historic surrender by the West to the axis of evil headed by Iran.'
She said that Israel would 'act with all means to try and stop the agreement being ratified', a clear threat to try to use its influence to block it in the Republican-controlled U.S. Congress.
After long, fractious negotiations, world powers and Iran struck the historic deal earlier today - an agreement aimed at averting the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran and another U.S. military intervention in the Middle East.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who spent the last 19 days leading the talks in Vienna, hailed the accord as 'the good deal that we sought'.
'We were determined to get this right and I believe our persistence paid off,' he told reporters, adding that the agreement marked a historic day.

Iranians hold their flag as they celebrate in the streets. Iran and six world powers have now agreed on a deal

The agreement is a major political victory for both Mr Obama and Iran's President Hassan Rouhani
Amid celebrations on streets of Iranian cities, Iran’s president Hassan Rouhani claimed the agreement hammered out in Vienna between his team of negotiators and foreign ministers of six world powers, opened a ‘new chapter in his country’s relations with the world’.
A highly selective breakdown of Iran’s gains and few of its concessions were highlighted on state-controlled TV.
Iran was also congratulated by Syrian despot Bashar al-Assad, who has been backed by Tehran throughout his country's four-year conflict.
He said the coming days will witness a 'strengthening of the constructive role played by Iran in supporting the rights of nations.'
Meanwhile, the prospect of a deal has already helped push down global oil prices because of the possibility that Iranian supply could return to the market.
The agreement is a major political victory for both Mr Obama and President Rouhani, a pragmatist elected two years ago on a vow to reduce the diplomatic isolation of a country of 77 million people.
But both leaders face scepticism from powerful hardliners at home after decades of enmity between nations that referred to each other as 'the Great Satan' and a member of the 'Axis of Evil'.
Rouhani was quick to present the deal as a step on the road towards a wider goal of international cooperation.

All smiles: Foreign ministers from the UN security council line up with their Iranian counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif (fifth left) after reaching a historic nuclear deal with Tehran
The deal 'shows constructive engagement works', he tweeted. 'With this unnecessary crisis resolved, new horizons emerge with a focus on shared challenges.'
For Obama, the diplomacy with Iran, begun in secret more than two years ago, ranks alongside his normalisation of ties with Cuba as landmarks in a legacy of reaching out to enemies that tormented his predecessors for decades.
While the main negotiations were between the United States and Iran, the four other U.N. Security Council permanent members, Britain, China, France and Russia, are also parties to the deal, as is Germany.
Prime Minister David Cameron the deal with Iran as 'historic', saying it will 'keep Iran from developing a nuclear weapon and help to make our world a safer place'.
Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond added: 'We hope, and expect, that this agreement will herald a step-change in Iran's relations with its neighbours and with the international community.
Congress has 60 days for a review, though if it rejects the deal, Obama can use his veto.
It would require two-thirds of lawmakers to override such a veto, which means some of Obama's fellow Democrats would have to rebel against one of their president's signature achievements in order to kill the deal.
Republican U.S. presidential candidate Lindsey Graham said the nuclear agreement is 'a possible death sentence for Israel' and will 'make everything worse.'
In an interview on MSNBC, the U.S. senator called the deal 'terrible.'
'This is most dangerous, irresponsible step I've ever seen in the history of watching the Mideast,' he said.
'Barack Obama and John Kerry have been dangerously naive about the Mideast in general.
'They've taken it to a new level and any senator who votes for this is voting for a nuclear arms race in the Mideast, voting to give the largest state sponsor of terrorism $18billion.'
Speaker John Boehner said Obama had abandoned his own goals and the deal would likely fuel a nuclear arms race around the world.
Kerry said he does not expect it to be definitively rejected, telling reporters: 'I really don't believe that people will turn their backs on an agreement which has such extraordinary steps in it with respect to Iran's program as well as access and verification.'
Iran is not likely to receive many of the benefits from the lifting of sanctions until next year because of the need to ratify the deal and verify its implementation.
'Celebrating too early can send a bad signal to the enemy,' Iranian conservative lawmaker Alireza Zakani was quoted as saying in parliament by Fars News agency.

HOPE FOR THE WORLD OR LICENCE TO KILL? KEY POINTS OF THE DEAL
- Billions of dollars in sanctions imposed by the United States, the EU and the UN will be lifted in return for Iran agreeing long-term curbs on a nuclear programme that the West has suspected was aimed at creating a nuclear bomb
- Iran retains right to conduct research into enriching uranium for 10 years, without stockpiling it
- Iran will remove two-thirds of its installed centrifuges and get rid of 98 per cent of its stockpile of uranium
- Iran agrees to continuation of a UN arms embargo on the country for up to five more years
- Similar condition put on UN restrictions on the transfer of ballistic missile technology to Tehran
- UN inspectors to press for visits to Iranian military sites as part of their monitoring duties
- However, access isn't guaranteed and could be delayed, a condition critics will say gives Tehran time to cover up any illicit activity
- West says Iran had accepted a 'snapback' mechanism, under which some sanctions could be reinstated in 65 days if it violated the deal
He noted that Iran's National Security Council would also review the deal 'and if they think it is against our national interests, we will not have a deal', he said.
'The Islamic Republic will not sign a bad deal.'
The final round of talks in Vienna involved nearly three weeks of intense negotiation between U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif.
It was something that would until recently have been unthinkable for two countries that have been bitter enemies since 1979, when Iranian revolutionaries stormed the U.S. embassy in Tehran and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days.
'I believe this is an historic moment,' Zarif, who was educated in the United States and developed a warm rapport with Kerry, told a news conference.
'Today could have been the end of hope on this issue, but now we are starting a new chapter of hope. Let's build on that.'
European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini, who acted as coordinator for the powers, said: 'It is a decision that can open the way to a new chapter in international relations and show that diplomacy, co-ordination, cooperation can overcome decades of tensions and confrontations.
'I think this is a sign of hope for the entire world.'
Hatred of the United States has been a defining trait of Iran's ruling system, on display last week when it marked the last Friday of the Ramadan fasting month with an annual day of protests, crowds chanting 'Death to Israel!' and 'Death to America!'.
Obama first reached out to Iranians with an address in 2008, only weeks into his presidency, offering a 'new beginning'.
Iran has long denied it is seeking a nuclear weapon and has insisted on the right to nuclear technology for peaceful means, although Western powers feared the enriched uranium that it was stockpiling could be used to make a bomb.
Obama never ruled out using military force if negotiations failed.
Iran's IRNA news agency said billions of dollars in frozen funds would be released under the deal, and sanctions on its central bank, national oil company, shipping and airlines would now be lifted.
Western diplomats said Iran had accepted a 'snapback' mechanism, under which some sanctions could be reinstated in 65 days if it violated the deal.
The breakthrough came after several key compromises.
Iran retains right to conduct research into enriching uranium for 10 years, without stockpiling it
Iran agreed to the continuation of a UN arms embargo on the country for up to five more years, though it could end earlier if the International Atomic Energy Agency definitively clears Iran of any current work on nuclear weapons.
Meeting of the minds: The breakthrough agreement came on the 18th day of marathon talks between Tehran and the so-called P5+1 – the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany – in Vienna
A similar condition was put on U.N. restrictions on the transfer of ballistic missile technology to Tehran, which could last for up to eight more years, according to diplomats.
Washington had sought to maintain the ban on Iran importing and exporting weapons, concerned that an Islamic Republic flush with cash from the nuclear deal would expand its military assistance for Assad's government, Yemen's Houthi rebels, the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and other forces opposing America's Mideast allies such as Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Iranian leaders insisted the embargo had to end as their forces combat regional scourges such as the Islamic State.
And they got some support from China and particularly Russia, which wants to expand military cooperation and arms sales to Tehran, including the long-delayed transfer of S-300 advanced air defense systems - a move long opposed by the United States.
Another significant agreement will allow U.N. inspectors to press for visits to Iranian military sites as part of their monitoring duties, something the country's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, had long vowed to oppose.
However, access isn't guaranteed and could be delayed, a condition that critics of the deal are sure to seize on as possibly giving Tehran time to cover up any illicit activity.
Under the accord, which runs almost 100 pages, Tehran would have the right to challenge the UN request and an arbitration board composed of Iran and the six world powers would then decide on the issue.
The IAEA also wants the access to complete its long-stymied investigation of past weapons work by Iran, and the U.S. says Iranian cooperation is needed for all economic sanctions to be lifted.
IAEA chief Yukiya Amano said Tuesday his agency and Iran had signed a 'roadmap' to resolve outstanding concerns, hopefully by mid-December.
The economic benefits for Iran are potentially massive.
It stands to receive more than $100 billion in assets frozen overseas, and an end to a European oil embargo and various financial restrictions on Iranian banks.
The deal comes after nearly a decade of international, intercontinental diplomacy that until recently was defined by failure.
Breaks in the talks sometimes lasted for months, and Iran's nascent nuclear program expanded into one that Western intelligence agencies saw as only a couple of months away from weapons capacity.
Technicians of the International Atomic Energy Agency inspect the site of the uranium conversion plant of Isfahan, central Iran in 2007. Iran says it will remove two-thirds of its installed centrifuges and get rid of 98 per cent of its stockpile of uranium
The U.S. and Israel both threatened possible military responses.
The disputes are likely to continue, however.
In a foreshadowing of the public relations battle ahead, Iranian state TV released a fact sheet of elements it claimed were in the final agreement - a highly selective list that highlighted Iranian gains and minimised its concessions.
Among them was an assertion that all sanctions-related U.N. resolutions will be lifted at once.
While a new UN resolution will revoke previous sanctions, it will also re-impose restrictions in a number of categories.
Beyond the parties to the pact, spoilers abound.
In the United States, Congress has a 60-day review period during which Obama cannot make good on any concessions to the Iranians.
U.S. lawmakers could hold a vote of disapproval and take further action.
Iranian hardliners oppose dismantling a nuclear program the country has spent hundreds of billions of dollars developing.
Khamenei, while supportive of his negotiators thus far, has issued a series of defiant red lines that may be impossible to reconcile in a deal with the West.
And further afield, Israel will strongly oppose the outcome. It sees the acceptance of extensive Iranian nuclear infrastructure and continued nuclear activity as a mortal threat, and has warned that it could take military action on its own, if necessary.
Sunni Arab rivals of Shi'ite Iran are none too happy, either, with Saudi Arabia in particularly issuing veiled threats to develop its own nuclear program.
FROM COVERT NUKE PROGRAM TO FINAL DEAL, A DECADE OF TALKS
August 2002 - Western intelligence services and an Iranian opposition group reveal a covert nuclear site at the eastern city of Natanz.
An inspection by the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency reveals it was used to enrich uranium, a process for producing fuel or nuclear warheads.
June 2003 - Britain, France and Germany engage Iran in nuclear negotiations. Washington refuses to join.
October 2003 - Iran suspends uranium enrichment.
February 2006 - Iran announces it will restart uranium enrichment following the election of hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a critical Iran report by the IAEA to the UN Security Council, and after Britain, France and Germany walk out of stalled negotiations.
June 2006 - The United States, Russia and China join Britain, France and Germany to form the P5+1 group of nations trying to persuade Iran to curb its nuclear program. Washington initially stays away from the negotiating table.
December 2006 - The U.N. Security Council imposes the first set of sanctions on Iran, banning the sale of sensitive nuclear technology. Five more Security Council resolutions are passed by 2010, tightening the sanctions vise on the Islamic Republic.
November 2007 - The number of uranium-enriching centrifuges assembled by Iran reaches about 3,000 from just a few hundred in 2002. Its stockpile of low-enriched uranium also grows, giving Tehran a theoretical ability to make enough-weapons grade uranium for a bomb within a year.
July 2008 - Under President George W. Bush, the United States joins the nuclear talks for the first time.
September 2009 - Western leaders announce that Iran has dug a covert enrichment site into a mountain, escalating concerns because the facility may be impervious to air attack.
October 2009 - Under President Barack Obama, a senior U.S. diplomat meets one-on-one with Iran's top nuclear negotiator. The talks are some of the most extensive between Washington and Tehran in three decades.
February 2010 - Iran announces it has started to enrich uranium to near 20 percent, a technical step away from weapons-grade material.
May 2010 - Brazil and Turkey announce their own nuclear deal with Iran, to America's great dismay. The arrangement quickly falls apart.
January 2011 - Negotiations between Iran and the six world powers break off for what proves a 15-month hiatus. Iran refuses to make deep cuts in its nuclear program.
November 2011 - The IAEA outlines the possible military dimension to Iran's nuclear activities. Iran denies the allegations, saying they're based on falsified Israeli and U.S. evidence.
January 2012 - The IAEA says Iran is enriching to 20 per cent at its mountain facility near Fordo. The European Union freezes the assets of Iran's central bank and halts Iranian oil imports.
April 2012 - Negotiations restart between Iran and the six world powers but go nowhere.
July 2012 - U.S. and Iranian officials meet secretly in Oman to see if diplomatic progress is possible. Talks gain speed the following year, particularly when Ahmadinejad's presidency ends.
August 2013 - Hassan Rouhani defeats several hardline candidates to become Iran's president, declaring his country ready for serious nuclear talks.
By now, Iran has about 20,000 centrifuges and the U.S. estimates the country is only a few months away from nuclear weapons capability.
September 2013 - Rouhani and Obama speak by telephone, the highest-level exchange between the two countries since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif begin their diplomatic exchanges.
November 2013 - Iran and the six powers announce an interim agreement that temporarily curbs Tehran's nuclear program and unfreezes some Iranian assets. The deal sets the stage for extended negotiations on a comprehensive nuclear accord.
July 2014 - Talks miss the deadline for a final pact. A four-month extension is agreed.
November 2014 - The final pact remains elusive. Talks are extended a further seven months.
April 2015 - A framework deal is announced, outlining long-term restrictions on Iran's nuclear program and the removal of many international sanctions. Much remains unresolved, however.
July 14, 2015 - World powers and Iran announce long-term, comprehensive nuclear agreement.

Joey Solomon, Photographer
Born in 1997, New York City, Joey Solomon’s photographs have been featured in The New Yorker, FOAM, Aperture Gallery and MoMA PS1 among notable others. Solomon’s images serve to advocate for invisible mental highs and lows of the mentally afflicted human experience. As an openly gay man with mental disorders, Joey Solomon’s work hones in on the psychology of self through portraits of his immediate family as well as a high emphasis of self-portraiture. Solomon pulls much of his perspective from personal entanglements in recurring themes of mental and physical illnesses based on the artist’s hospitalizations. His images continue to document motifs surrounding illness, gayness, ghostly emptiness and the erosion of our Earth. If nothing else, Solomon’s work serves to affirm a learning process of our tender and dysfunctional species.
Mariama Attah, Curator, Writer, and Lecturer
Attah is a photography curator, writer and lecturer with an interest in overlooked visual histories. Mariama is curator of Open Eye Gallery, Liverpool. She was previously Assistant Editor of Foam Magazine.

Comfort and Feel
As the name recommends, Eco Terra is 100% natural latex that is actually ‘green’. There are a handful of natural latex bed mattress on the marketplace at this moment, however Eco Terra is among the very best. The mattress is offered in 2 firmness options to suit your sleeping choice: medium and medium-firm. Both live up to their labels. Neither is too tough nor too soft, however one is a little firmer for sleepers who need it. Regardless of which firmness you choose, there’s no denying that Eco Terra mattresses are a comfy mix of the pressure relief and contouring of latex foam with the springiness of small coils. The top layers are made from latex and will flex to follow the curve of your body. Underneath that layer lives the reassuring pushback of little fabric-encased coils. Together, the layers of this mattress provide the comfort and support that will have you sleeping like a baby.
• Motion Isolation
The Eco Terra mattress uses premium helpful fabric-encased coils that provide little movement transfer and an exceptionally buoyant sleep. If you are a sleeper who prefers an “in the mattress” feel, memory foam might be a much better choice.
• Edge Support Single Nectar Mattress
You will not have to worry about that with an Eco Terra mattress. The coils do a remarkable task of offering assistance from the centre of the mattress all the way to the edges. In general, hybrid mattresses tend to offer better edge support than innerspring beds due to their pairing of springs and foam.
Practically all brand-new mattresses give off a faint odor when opened, but those smells are nothing to be concerned about. Most natural latex mattresses don’t emit a pungent off-gas like artificial bed mattress. Eco Terra has a scent instead of an odor.
Since latex foam does not maintain heat like memory foam, the mattress will keep a neutral temperature whether it is cold or hot. In general, latex breathes well. This can be largely credited to latex’s open cell structure that flows air quickly. Ontop of that, the organic cotton cover likewise assists to regulate the circulation of air in and out of the mattress and the encased coils push out excess temperature. Eco Terra headed out of their way to design a mattress that will not trap heat. You’ll never feel overheated in an Eco Terra bed, but you likewise won’t seem like you are too cold either. It does a fantastic job of managing a comfy sleeping temperature level.
Who Should Buy the Eco Terra Mattress?
- Somebody who desires a cooler sleeping mattress.
- You desire less chemicals and more natural materials because of principles, sensitivity or a more green lifestyleWhen you or somebody you sleep with moves around on the bed, you like a medium or company feel and a much faster reaction
- Likes the concept of a mattress with less chemicals and that’s not made in China with less expensive products. Eco Terra is made in the USA, in California and they make along with sell the bed. Single Nectar Mattress

The Fluvisol and sediment trace element contamination level as related to their geogenic and anthropogenic source
R. Vácha, M. Sáňka, O. Sáňka, J. Skála, J. Čechmánkováhttps://doi.org/10.17221/723/2012-PSECitation:Vácha R., Sáňka M., Sáňka O., Skála J., Čechmánková J. (2013): The Fluvisol and sediment trace element contamination level as related to their geogenic and anthropogenic source
. Plant Soil Environ., 59: 136-142.
The upper values of the extractability of trace elements (As, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) in 2 mol/L HNO3 and 0.025 mol/L ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) (compared with their pseudototal content in aqua regia) for determination of prevailing anthropogenic and geogenic soil load were proposed and compared with the results of the other 30 Fluvisol samples collected from the Labe fluvial zone. The increased geogenic load of Fluvisols was confirmed in the case of Be and As in some localities where low extractability with increased pseudototal contents were detected as opposed to the other elements when their increased pseudototal contents were followed by their increased extractability. The maps of probability of increased geogenic soil load in the area of the Czech Republic based on the comparison of geological substrates and trace element load were constructed. The combination of proposed elements extractability values for geogenic load together with developed maps is a suitable tool for the definition of prevailing Fluvisol or sediment load on some localities in the whole area of the Czech Republic. The results can be also a useful tool in the decision making processes regarding dredged sediment application on agricultural soil (support tool for legislative norms, Direction No. 257/2009 Sb.).Keywords:

“It typically takes five to seven years for a team to rebuild after totally bottoming out,” Peter Gammons said Friday morning, talking about the state of baseball on MSNBC.
He cited the Braves, who needed to bottom out in the mid ’80s, after which they rebuilt their farm system, re-hired Bobby Cox and went on a significant post-season run during the ’90s. He cited the Pirates as a team that struggled, reaching multiple bottoms with failed rebuilding efforts before adjusting their draft strategy in 2007 to finally get where they are today.
I’m typically a patient fan. However, I’m starting to see this winter as a make-or-break off season for the Mets. I know that’s hyperbolic, and I don’t speak for everyone. And, I know they’ve had rebuilding phases before that eventually ended up in October. It’s just, this move away from WFAN, plus poor attendance, an apathetic fan base, a dwindling payroll and blurry goals, it all comes together to make the Mets seem very distant, irrelevant and vague.
Sandy Alderson has talked about 2014 for so long, it’s burned into my brain as the year this team gets significantly better. The thing is, I’d say they really only hit bottom these last two or three years. So, if what Gammons said is accurate, it will be at least another few years before Mets find the top of the standings at a consistent rate. I’m OK with this, as long as they’re actually heading in that direction…
They’re now going to be out of the city’s broadcasting zeitgeist, WFAN, so there’s a good chance that — if they continue to lose — they become about as relevant as the Islanders used to be. (By the way, I hear there is close to a zero chance the Mets end up on ESPN Radio in New York, mostly because of conflicting interests and existing partnerships and ESPN not really caring about it’s local products. So, expect to hear Mets games on WCBS or WOR, neither of which carry any other sports programming.)
In other words, the Mets can’t really get worse. They HAVE TO take steps forward here, for fear of losing more fans to apathy. Alderson has money to spend this winter. I don’t care if it goes against his principles to spend it all. He should do it.
I’m not saying he needs to give absurdly bad contracts to guys who will burn us years from now. However, he has just a few roster spots locked down for next year, he has very few position prospects on the near-term horizon… He has to spend the remaining money to fill out a complete roster. It’s been years since I’ve seen a Mets roster with 25 players all qualified to be in the big leagues. It has often looked like a minor league team as early as May. This is the least he could do in an effort to keep clinging to relevance.
Do this, and I’ll feel better. I believe in Matt Harvey and Zack Wheeler. I think Noah Syndergaard is going to be special. I’m confident in Jon Niese and Dillon Gee. I like this front office’s approach to the bullpen. David Wright is one of the most productive players in the league. It’s not all doom and gloom. There is reason to be optimistic, but only if it’s built upon, again and again, until the bottom is finally behind us.

Sacred Geometry Art, Symbols & Meaning
Sacred Geometry is often referred to as the “architecture of the universe”, it is found throughout the natural world. It is all around us and is one of the very few subjects that satisfy both the left brain and right brain hemispheres simultaneously. It satisfies the left brains desire for logical, sequential and objective data. It also satisfies the right brains desire for random, intuitive and subjective data.
It is simply not possible to cover all aspects of sacred geometry, although I will try to include as much as possible in this article. People have spent entire lifetimes studying a single aspect of sacred geometry; such as a rabbi studying the Kabbalistic tree of life. The following content provides an overview on all Sacred Geometry symbols.
Sacred Geometry Shapes
Vesica Piscis is a mathematical shape formed by intersecting two identical circles so that the center of each circle intersects the perimeter of the other. The vesica piscis is commonly used for Venn Diagrams and in various art and in seals organizations.
Various other symbols can be derived from the vesica piscis including the Ichthys, also known as the “Jesus Fish”, the triquetra symbol, and the Reuleaux triangle. It has also been a symbol used by Freemasons for many years. Historically, the vesica piscis has been used as a system of proportions for architecture, illustrated in the works of Vitruvius.
SEED OF LIFE
The Seed of Life is a universal symbol that also represents the seven days of creation. It is found in all of the major religions and can be seen in many sites around the world, such as churches, mosques, prayer books and ancient temples. The two dimensional projection of the seed of life contains seven overlapping circles. It has been used for centuries as a symbol of blessing and protection.
EGG OF LIFE
A symbol that has been used to represent new life, rebirth and fertility. The Egg of Life is the second iteration of a process that constructs the Flower of Life. Adding six additional circles to the seed of life you are able to produce the Egg of Life. This can also be formed by the eight spheres contained within the three dimensional Metatron’s Cube.
FLOWER OF LIFE
The Flower of Life was known around the world in ancient times and has been found in Ireland, Turkey, Egypt, Greece, China, Israel, Germany, England, Tibet, Japan and Sweden.
The typical depiction Flower of Life always stops after 19 circles, the remaining circles are hidden outside the bounds of the outer circle. In the past this image and knowledge related to the Flower of Life was so sacred that they couldn’t allow it to become common knowledge. Out of the complete Flower of Life pattern a new shape emerges; the The Fruit of Life.
The Flower of Life is said to be the actual blueprint of the universe continuing the basic design of every atomic and molecular structure, life form, etc; essentially everything in existence. Modern science and quantum physics are confirming the cosmic significance of these ancient sacred geometric forms which represent the building blocks of our physical universe. The ancients knew about the energetic nature of our existence. Other sacred patterns such as the Egg of Life, Seed of Life and the Tree of Life also exists within the Flower of Life pattern.
TREE OF LIFE
The Tree of Life is another popular universal symbol it represents numerous systems across varying cultures and religions. Like all the other symbols in this list it is not identified by a single culture and it has been used around the world for centuries.
So what does the Tree of Life represent? A connection to everything including the things we cannot see or the void beyond. It reminds you that you are not alone in the Universe but rather part of a vast interconnected network.
The Tree of Life provides a hierarchical structure for all of the forces in the Universe. It can also be used as a road map of one’s soul. The 10 spheres are called the “Sephiroth” translating to eminiation. These are connected by different paths. The first Sephira on the Tree of Life is at the top. It represents cosmic consciousness. The Sephira at the base represents the material world. The rest of these Sephiroth represent different qualities of the Soul. These can be divided into three pillars; the Pillar of Severity, The pillar of Mildness and the Pillar of Mercy.
FRUIT OF LIFE
The 13 spheres represent an extremely powerful sacred geometric pattern known as the Fruit of Life, considered the Holy of Holies of Sacred Geometry because it's hidden within the ancient and well-known Flower of Life pattern.
The fruit of life is composed of 13 spheres; this is actually the 2d representation of a 3d structure Thirteen represents unity and transition between worlds / dimensions.
Those of you who play an instrument know the chromatic scale of 12 notes the thirteenth note is actually repeating the first note but on a higher frequency; when you attain a higher octave you enter a higher dimension. If we connect all the Centers of the 13 circles the result is 78 lines which create a structure known as Metatron's Cube. This structure contains all five platonic solids, these three-dimensional figures and their different combinations reveal every possible geometric law forming the physical reality we are experiencing.
The spheres of the Fruit of Life represents the female movements or elements of creation and provide the field for the 78 ray like male movements of creation. The geometry of Metatron's Cube is set to underlie what modern physics calls the quantum vacuum or void and is fundamental to the creation process at the quantum level. What we're talking about here is what's been called zero-point, life force or bio force energy.
One of the most fascinating aspects of sacred geometry is the symbol known as Metatron’s Cube. So who is Metatron? If you investigate, Metatron was an archangel who was mentioned in Islamic, Judaic and Christian medieval mythologies. He was considered to be the scribe of God, this would make him the equivalent of the ancient Egyptian scribes of the gods known as Thoth. According to legend a scribe of God would understand the basic principles of creation which are almost always associated with sacred geometry. Many times the Archangel Metatron is pictured with or holding a cube.
Metatron's Cube 3D Model (Interactive):
The graphic known as Metatron’s Cube didn’t show up until later when a Medieval Italian Mathematician Leonardo Pisano, discovered Metatron’s Cube. He read the history and legends of Metatron and was also familiar with sacred geometry and was probably an initiate in one of the schools that held those secrets.
Metatron’s Cube traces back to nature's first pattern, and the 13 circles that are found inside the fourth circle in Nature’s first pattern. When you connect the centers of all the 13 circles, you get the shape known as Metatron’s Cube. Leonardo Pisano also discovered that you could create all 5 of the platonic solids within Metatron’s Cube. Metatron’s Cube is a transcendental form and beautifully illustrates the mental universe through the unfolding of 2-dimensional realities into 3 dimensional realities
The Hermetic axiom reads “all is mind, the universe is mental” and Metatron’s Cube is teaching us about this conceptual mental nature of the universe and the current experiments in quantum physics are also teaching us this exact same thing. Without first being a conceptual equivalent in consciousness nothing could exist. Sacred geometry is the creator’s conceptual architecture on which all things precipitate.
GRID OF LIFE
The star tetrahedron is the basis of the 64 grid tetrahedron also known as the Grid of Life. This is the masculine equivalent to the Flower of Life pattern. As the name suggests, this shape is made up of 64 tetrahedrons. Which as you know is one of the platonic solids.
64 Tetrahedron 3D Model (Interactive)
When the 64-tetrahedron is overlaid on the flower of life this represents a powerful concept; the spheres represent space and the lines lines represent where space and time come together.
One of the most fascinating aspects of the 64 tetrahedron is the number 64 itself and how it appears throughout the natural world.
Here are a few examples:
- There are 64 codons in human DNA
- 64 is the number of cells we have before the cells start to bifurcate (differentiate) after conception.
- 64 is the fundamental number in computer memory and bits of code
- 64 is encoded in the Tetragrammaton within the Hebrew Bible, which is the four letter theonym YHWH that means God in Hebrew.
- 64 is the number of generations from Adam until Jesus
- 64 manifestations of Lord Shiva in Hinduism
- 64 squares in chess and checker boards
- 64 hexagrams in the I Ching
- 64 tantras which is a form of Hinduism
- 64 is the maximum number of strokes in any Chinese character
Sacred Geometry is embedded in your DNA
The shape known as a 'Torus' is a type of vortex. So what is a torus? The word “torus” comes from the Latin word meaning swelling. In sacred geometry it is the first shape to emerge from the Genesis Pattern. The torus is found in everything from atoms, to life forms and even in all cosmic bodies such as stars and galaxies. It is a primary shape in existence.
For many years ‘seers’ have taught that the human aura appears as a series of nested torus formations around the body. Energy flows through the center of the body and loops around to connect the feet and head. The flow from the feet to the head is bi-directional. The energy is flowing through the surface of the torus and inside an in a spiraling pattern, this is why the sacred geometry shape is shown with curves lines throughout the middle, while also adding the illusion of a 3d perspective to the 2d depiction.
The Torus is a 2d depiction of a 3 dimensional shape, like many other sacred geometry forms. The 3d shape is known as a horn torus. This can be mathematically described here.
The Merkaba symbol (also spelled Merkabah) translates to light, spirit, body. The symbol consists of 2 intersecting tetrahedrons that rotate in opposite directions, this creates an energy field that is commonly referred to as a light body.
Merkavah mysticism is an early school of Judaism, practiced between 100 BCE - 1000 CE. The teachings were based on visions found in the Book of Ezekiel and hekhalot literature. These stories speak of ascents into the heavens and to the Throne of God.
Everyone has access to their own personal Merkaba or vehicle of light with practice in meditation. It is said that once one has access to their Merkaba it can provide a powerful protection and transport your consciousness to higher dimensions. The Merkavah symbol can remind us of the potential power we hold when we unite our bodies energy to Source.
This symbol combines opposing energies in perfect harmony and has allegedly been used by ascended masters to connect to higher realms. In modern esoteric teachings, the Merkabah is considered an interdimensional vehicle. It is also known as a star tetrahedron and can be imagined as a 3-dimensional Star of David. Discover the transformative power of the Merkaba and unlock your full potential by exploring our in-depth blog post on Merkaba meditation.
How is Sacred Geometry Created?
The story of creation in terms of sacred geometry starts with the idea of a single point, also known as the "Monad" or "Dot." This single point is seen as representing the beginning of creation, the first spark of divine energy that gave rise to the universe. From this single point, all other shapes and forms in sacred geometry are said to have emerged.
One of the first shapes to emerge from the single point is the Vesica Piscis. This shape is formed by the intersection of two circles, with the center of each circle being located at the circumference of the other. The Vesica Piscis is often seen as a symbol of the union of spirit and matter, the merging of the physical and the spiritual, and the creation of the manifested world. It is also said to represent the beginning of duality, and the emergence of the masculine and feminine principles.
The next shape to emerge from the single point is the Seed of Life. This shape is formed by seven circles arranged in a specific pattern, creating a flower-like shape that is often used to represent the creation of the universe and the process of life. The Seed of Life is believed to contain the blueprint of the universe and the secrets of the creation of life itself. It is seen as a symbol of the seven days of creation in the Book of Genesis, as well as the seven chakras in the human body.
The story of creation in terms of sacred geometry is a symbolic representation of the process of creation, from the initial spark of divine energy to the emergence of the physical world and the manifestation of life. The Vesica Piscis and the Seed of Life are just two examples of the many shapes and forms that are said to have emerged from the single point, each with their own unique meanings and symbolism.
The torus is said to emerge from the genesis pattern through a process called "unfolding" or "unwrapping." This process involves taking the genesis pattern and pulling or stretching it out into a three-dimensional shape, creating a torus.
The torus is considered by some to be the next step in the evolution of the genesis pattern, representing the transition from the two-dimensional pattern to the three-dimensional shape. It is also believed to symbolize the transition from the spiritual realm to the physical realm, as well as the connection between the inner and outer worlds.
In summary, the torus is said to emerge from the genesis pattern through the process of "unfolding" or "unwrapping". The genesis pattern, also known as the "Seed of Life," is a geometric pattern that is said to represent the beginning of creation and the formation of all things, the torus is considered by some to be the next step in the evolution of the genesis pattern, representing the transition from the two-dimensional pattern to the three-dimensional shape and symbolizing the connection between the inner and outer worlds.
THE PLATONIC SOLIDS
In the original model Plato came up with, each of the Platonic solids represents an element. The Cube represents Earth, the Tetrahedron represents Fire, the Octahedron represents Air, the Icosahedron represents Water and the Dodecahedron represents Aether.
Connecting the edges of four equilateral triangles creates the tetrahedron. Connecting the edges of size squares creates the hexahedron. Connecting the edges of eight equilateral triangles creates the octahedron. Connecting the edges of 12 pentagons creates the dodecahedron. Connecting the edges of 20 equilateral triangles creates the icosahedron. He wrote about this in their philosophical texts.
There are five platonic solids: the tetrahedron, octahedron, hexahedron, the icosahedron and the dodecahedron. What makes these shapes so special is that the faces, angles and edges are all congruent and that each one can fit perfectly inside a sphere with all the corners touching. There are no other shapes in existence that can satisfy these parameters.
The five platonic solids also form pairs, known as jewels; the hexahedron and octahedron make up pair and the icosahedron and dodecahedron make up the other. The tetrahedron is the odd one out, as it is a jewel with itself by connecting the midpoints of each face. Each platonic solid is also associated with an element.
It is interesting to note that all the parameters for a hypercube, also known as a tesseract can be easily extracted from Metatron’s Cube. It should also be noted that Metatron’s Cube is also deeply connected to the platonic solids. Below is a 2D projection of a tesseract:
Many of the ancient traditions were fascinated by a science of simple 3 dimensional geometric shapes, that were originally discovered by Plato (who invented school). The Platonic Solids have more symmetry than any other shape you could possibly make.
The most advanced hyper dimensional models, that scientists are trying to build multidimensional in the Universe you can see the Platonic Solids show up frequently, because they know that in order to build higher dimensions you need a lot of symmetry.
The following is detailed drawings of 4D shapes. There are six regular convex polytopes in 4 dimensions. Since these are projected images, much of the geometry is distorted, however these perspective projections reveal incredible symmetries of higher dimensions.
THE GOLDEN SPIRAL
Closely related to the golden ratio is the Fibonacci Sequence. It was first described by mathematicians in India in about 700 CE and introduced to the west by Leonardo of Pisa, also known as Fibonacci. In his book, Liber Abaci. The easiest place to find this sequence in nature is in plants. No matter what type of flower you look at you will see the number of pedals equals one of the numbers in the Fibonacci series. Rows of seeds in sunflowers and pinecones always add up to Fibonacci numbers. Learn more about the Fibonacci sequence and its relationship to Phi here.

Resurrection Unfolding: Openness
Preached at Broadneck Baptist Church, Annapolis, MD
I don’t know about you, but it is easy for me to think at certain points of my own story of faith that I have “arrived” at what is the right way. That I’ve finally had enough education, enough life experience, enough personal reflection to make a sound judgment on what I believe on a particular issue is right.
I’ve talked to enough people.
I’ve read enough books.
I’ve been in church long enough. My mind is made up and that’s that.
Before I entered seminary in the summer of 2003 one such moment in my life occurred. I had figured out, or so I thought at the time, the only “proper” or “theologically sound way” to talk about God.
All of this came about thanks to a new friend introducing me to a new genre of books: feminism. These new books I began reading described the world in ways I’d never heard of during my 20+ years of growing up in small, Southern Baptist centric Tennessee towns.
In my childhood church, when we prayed, we always prayed to our “Heavenly Father” called God “He” and if you really wanted to be seen as extra holy, you’d be sure to capitalize in writing any pronoun reference for God.
But after reading and discussing texts new to me like Sue Monk Kidd’s Dance of the Dissent Daughter, I believed I’d arrived at an epiphany. I’d been taught all wrong. No, no. Never again would I pray to God in male dominate language. Never again would I use the word “He” to refer to God. God wasn’t a man or a woman after all—I believed so why did we refer to God as such?
As part of my new personal practice of referencing God without a gender association, I simultaneously started looking down on those who weren’t as “enlightened” as me. I don’t believe such was intentional. Or even such thoughts often left the confines of my brain.
But, because I’d made up my mind on this—openness to others was out of the realm of possibilities.
In fact, one time, I dared to correct my husband’s dinnertime prayer, in which addressed God as, “Heavenly Father.” Later, I reminded him in my serious preacher tone of voice: “If he was going to say father than he needed to say mother too.” You can imagine how well that went over and I’ve barely since lived such down (the prayer criticizing incident as we now refer to it as)—not one of the shinning star days of our married life for sure …
But is this what growing in our faith is really supposed to look like? Illumination that puffs us up with self-righteousness and isolates others who may think or have a different experience of God than we do? Is this what resurrection unfolding in our lives becomes?
I know that for these past four weeks, Pastor Abby has been helping you stick closely to the idea of resurrection as a season, of resurrection as something that is not a one-time experience, but something that unfolds and finds resonance in surprising ways over time. And such is certainly the case with our resurrection story for today.
In Acts 11, we find a story that asked Peter and asks us, as readers, today to reconsider how open we are to the fresh wind of the Spirit moving among us. Especially as the Spirit’s wind moves through our most cherished set of religious, spiritual, Biblical, or whatever you want to call them beliefs—and says:
Why are you excluding those who believe differently from you?
And, what might you learn about God if you include them?
What I find most interesting about Acts 11 is that it is not the first time we’ve heard the details of the interaction between Peter and Cornelius. Probably the tale you’ve most heard read of this story (if you’ve heard it before) comes from the Acts 10.
In Acts 10 we learn that Peter—the disciple of Jesus, Peter—has a vision while he is on the roof praying. In this vision he see the heavens being opened and a something like a large sheet coming down from heaven full of all kinds of animals. And Peter, hears a voice saying, a voice he believes to be the Lord: “Get up, Peter. Kill and Eat.”
Such a directive did not seem to Peter to be of the Lord. For this word of “eat whatever kind of meat you’d like” went against everything he’d believed to be true about purity.
And not just the kind of purity for purity sake, but prescribed words from the Torah, words that told generations of Jews what relationship with God entailed. There was just no way that the Lord would ask him to associate with people like that!
But after asking the Lord again, Peter receives confirmation that he’d indeed heard correctly. And before Peter could over think his way out of his vision, several men from the household of Cornelius, a non-Jew (who also just had a vision from the Lord about making contact with Peter) showed up. These Gentile men asked Peter and his friends to journey with them to Caesarea.
Peter goes, shares the gospel with this non-Jewish crowd at the home of Cornelius, and as a result the Holy Spirit comes upon all those who gathered. And, then, Peter could not deign that God loved these kinds of people with whom he had previously kept at arm’s length. Peter saw new life coming to this family before his eyes! Soon a baptismal service was in order to make it all official.
In this life altering moment, Peter proclaimed: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right.”
But by time we get to the re-telling of the story in Acts 11 (where Cornelius’ name is not even mentioned specially by the way), we find Peter giving testimony to how this experience opened him up.
For word was getting back to Jerusalem and the established religious guard were upset: Jews eating with Gentiles? No way! If the purity laws were out, in the way of Christ, what was next? As is true of most conversations like this, fear paralyzed.
Yet, in the midst of it, what was Peter going to say for himself?
What follows is not an argumentative debate or even a lecture in proof texting the Torah, rather it is Peter, in a very pastoral way, in a very loving and patient way telling his story of what the movement of resurrection had looked like in his life.
He brings the conversation back to Jesus—how Jesus taught his followers that after he left the earth, the Holy Spirit would be given, the Spirit that would lead this followers in all things.
Peter gives personal witness to the fact that his heart and mind changed. Saying, in the way of resurrection there’s one sign that emerges as guide and that is: the Holy Spirit.
Peter speaks boldly in verse 17 when he says, “If then God gave them (referring to the Gentile believers) the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could hinder God?”
Or, in other words, “Listen fellas, if the Spirit is a work, you can’t discrimmate. You have to accept. You have to be open to what resurrection looks like even if it is nothing like you’ve ever considered before.”
The believers at Cornelius’ house certainly had the Spirit, and for this, Peter explained to the Jerusalem leaders that openness was unavoidable.
The first time I ever preached a sermon on the Peter and Cornelius story, I was a new full-time pastor as an associate. I had to wait my turn to preach and it when it was finally my turn to speak, I wanted it to be good—piercing, really hitting a home run. When I found out that Acts 10 was the lectionary on that day, I was thrilled. I was thrilled because I knew this text would give me the opportunity to call out the congregation on all the ways I felt their actions did not show openness to the gospel. It was a home-run in the making: for I had so much to say!
But, looking back on it now, I think the particularities of what I defined as “openness” mostly missed the point. For, when I re-read this sermon again this week, I realized that I preached a message that was in line with beliefs that held true for me at that time—acceptance of people I accepted, theology of people I believed in, and acknowledgment of doubts I had already explored in my own life. I hoped the sermon would encourage the congregation to be more like me.
But is this really what openness to the Spirit is all about? Converting people to believe exactly as you do?
Anne Lamott has become famous for saying: “You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”
And it’s true, isn’t it? While it is easy to create an agenda that you think is the “proper way” or the “right way” or the most “theologically astute way,” it’s not always the God way.
The Spirit really cares little for all our nonsensical categories.
The Spirit really cares little for who we think was made more beautifully in God’s image.
The Spirit really has no time to waste on those who can be approved by church councils and denominational boards for who has the most pristine theological pedigree.
The Spirit lives and moves and breathes in all kinds of people . . . even people, from our perspective, that we find very little common ground with actually often it is the Spirit moves in people we don’t agree with very much.
Professor Roberta Bondi of Emory University Divinity School says in her volume, To Pray and to Love this about being open to the Spirit in one another: “the goal of life . . . if you want to live by love is not to live by principles . . . rather relationship.”
Of course this doesn’t mean that there aren’t times when living as God people in a particular community as you are doing here that you won’t need to be prescriptive or prophetic. Or that principles of faith don’t matter. Or that there won’t be times when the church will discern together on something and not every one will come along 100% and relationships will suffer.
But, it does mean that as we are open to the Spirit, our theology will shift as we grow and the people in whom we converse with about our faith to might just shift too. And, our church has to reflect this kind of growth.
Rather than sticking with labels people place on our faith or our communities like, “progressive” or “conservative” or “justice centric” or “evangelistic” we’ve got to be ready to move with the Spirit, even if there isn’t a label for what exactly it means.
I don’t know what kind of people in your life you have trouble seeing the Spirit of God in or welcoming in your community—
-people who strongly support a political party you don’t belong to
-people who make poorer driving decisions in the car than you do
-people who live in neighborhoods you don’t feel comfortable in
-people who live in regions of this world you don’t like too much
-people who worship with louder or softer voices than you prefer
But, regardless, we are all called out on our exclusive behavior of one kind or another and asked us to be open to the new.
For me today, if push came to shovel and you asked me how I prayed, I’d tell you I rarely use male language for God- as I have since 2003. But, I have been gently led the Spirit over the years, in particular in the last year to be more inclusive in conversation with those who do. After all, Jesus calls God His Father throughout the Gospels . . .
Not only does this make family mealtimes more nurturing and loving environment for both Kevin and me too, but it opens me up to learnings about God that I might miss if I am too stuck on the “proper way.” And, it has given me some friends back and let me to new ones too—friends that might not call God the same thing I do, but who are full of the Spirit with much to teach.
In a world of words flying across the internet and on cable tv about why this party or this type of person or this kind of church is bad for believing or doing a certain thing, what a resurrection it could be if we let the Spirit unfold in us direction.
If we let the Spirit unfold in us expanding wisdom
If we let the Spirit unfold beyond labels we place on ourselves or others
If we let the Spirit unfold in us renewed community
If we let the Spirit unfold in us most of all, love.

YouTube Marketing: The Ultimate Guide
Even on an accelerated timetable, Apple is likely multiple years away from a completed hardware design for a car. On April 28, , less than two weeks after Apple was given the all-clear to trial driverless cars on Californian roads, images emerged of a Lexus RXh decked out in autonomous car tech leaving an Apple facility. The photos, which were supplied to and published by Bloomberg, revealed a car that was kitted with a number of sensors, including channel lidar, two radars, and several cameras.
Importantly, these sensors appeared to have been bought from third-party manufacturers, rather than having been custom-built by Apple itself. These vehicles are supposedly being used to test autonomous driving software. The company has been on quite the hiring spree, specifically recruiting individuals with experience in vehicles particularly electric , autonomisation and AI , and materials research. However, Musk later backtracked on his comments, tweeting the following:.

But do we have any idea who specifically might be working on the Apple Car? Wikipedia has compiled a list of individuals that may be involved with the project:. Zadesky had worked at Apple for 16 years, and led the Apple Car project for two years; prior to that, he worked as an engineer at Ford Motor Co. Related: 9 creepy ways robots are replacing humans. In spite of how vague the rumours about the Apple Car have been thus far, most sources seem to agree on a launch time frame. Apple investor tycoon Carl Icahn says Apple is eyeing , which is echoed by a Bloomberg report.

But is it already too late for Apple to enter the car business? Speaking during an interview at the Code Conference in California, Musk said:. Apple CarPlay. There is absolutely no reason to assume that Apple is going to be financially successful in the electric car business. The Toyota Prius, a full hybrid electric mid-size hatchback. However, Anderson described how technology companies like Apple — which have a longstanding history in computing systems — have a good shot at overtaking traditional vendors. Nvidia currently builds computing systems for cars, and is developing technology for a self-driving future.
The firm, best known for its graphics cards, has a number of partners in the car space, including Audi, BMW, and Daimler. But despite these doubts, all things point to Apple trundling along towards its launch window. Ford autonomous driving technology at CES Butler said he believes both Apple and Google can create successful car franchises, and is excited to see competitors join the industry. I think Google can do it.

Our working assumption is that they are, and that again provides us the right motivation to make sure that we stay very focused, not only on the product, but overall on the experience that the customer has. What does that tell us? It tells us that the Apple Car, at least in early design stages, will be big enough to carry at least five people.
It also tells us that Apple might not be eyeing direct competition with the BMW i8 electric supercar. The BMW i8. While Apple products of sported a host of paintjobs in the past, it has recently tended towards a select few hues. Jean Louis-Gassee, a former Apple executive writing for the Monday Note , explains that Apple may just offer a single colour option. The images show what look to be a detachable steering wheel with a large — and probably touch-sensitive — display running the length of the dashboard.
Related: What is Google X? Two of the most commonly asked questions about the Apple Car are whether it will be 1 electric, and 2 driverless. So if the future of cars is electric, and Apple is building a car for the future, it makes sense that the vehicle should be electric. But the question of whether the Apple Car will be driverless is a little tougher to answer. While electric cars have certainly come to the fore, driverless vehicles still attract plenty of scepticism.
Apple Car leaks and proof – Is there any Apple Car evidence?
Our best guess is that if Apple wants to hit its rumoured deadline, it will need to focus on electric cars initially. To create a driverless vehicle will require a significant amount of development, and not just on the part of Apple; our governments still have to develop road infrastructure and legislation to the point where autonomous cars can be realistically used in public.
Take, for instance, The Guardian report from 14 August that claims Apple is eyeing a testing ground for autonomous vehicles at a former naval base. So whether or not Apple is developing an autonomous Apple Car, it appears that the company has, at least, shown some interest in driverless technology.

Voice and Voice
Mental note: Do not have a voice lesson on the same day as booked to record a chapter of audio fiction.
On the other hand, the vocal fatigue probably helped my male characters sound a little deeper.
Actually, the voice lesson was interesting today. We were working on “Summertime” and at the end of it I’m supposed to shoot up to a B and then float there before glissandoing back down. When I’m in shape, it works, but it’s been well over a year since I’ve sung this and I told my voice teacher, Sue, that I thought I sounded more like a whistling teakettle.
She was trying to come up shows where producing a whistling teakettle sound would be useful. I said, “Actually, I was in the Teakettle of Good Fortune.” As we’ve discussed in previous entries, I can’t whistle, at least not the conventional way. So I demonstrated the whistling teakettle sound that I used in the show, which involves saying “Woo!” on a rising scale, and then my voice suddenly pops up to this impossibly high note.
Sue starts laughing and tries to find it on the piano. It’s an A. The one that’s two and a half octaves above middle C. Which is ridiculous. Apparently I’m using what’s called “whistle voice,” to make this sound. It’s when the vocal folds come together down to a little hole and one essentially whistles through them. It’s nice to know what I’ve been doing.
Also, don’t ask me to do this for you at a con (you know who you are) because it’s full volume or nothing.
Edited to add: I realized that I had recorded my voice lesson, so you can listen to the whistling teakettle sound, here.

And following on farkas' lead, here's this:
Again, the 0-Coast is NOT in this build. Keep it in its own cab. I left it here so that its functions can be evaluated alongside the actual build itself.
Top row: THREE oscillators; I figured that if the room's there, why not have BOTH Mutable oscillator clones? So there's a uBraids and a uPlaits, plus the Dixie2+. Next to that is a screwy Recovery device, their Motomouth, which is a cross between a ring mod and a waveshaper, then a 3-in mixer for summing oscillators. Added a second Cinnamon, then the PanMix is where you'll find the audio VCAs...just use the channels in manual pan mode. Then...yep, I KEPT the Magneto! After that, there's a Happy Nerding Isolator, which I really like for stereo outputs because it isolates the synth from any crud that might come in via the output lines.
Bottom row: I moved the P/S here; if it's possible to move it there, this keeps it away from the audio chain somewhat. If not, simply reverse the top and bottom rows. Then everything's the same as farkas' version until you hit the Kinks, which adds some basic waveshaping, logic, a sample and hold, and a white noise source. After that...a Noise Reap uLOAF, which is a twisty dual LFO with some crossmod capabilities. The 3xMIA is next, then the Maths, 3xVCA, Quadrax, and I added the Qx so that the Quadrax's envelope gens can be chained.
The "voice" part might seem a little short, but it's actually pretty well-featured with three oscillators, waveshaping, ring mod, summing, two SVFs, and six VCAs with panning in the PanMix. Pretty much everything you need...for TWO voices, if you felt like it, even! And then it all goes thru the Magneto. Where this really shines, though, is in the modulation row on the bottom. I was thinking ahead there, also providing modulation sources that could be broken out to the 0-Coast. Plus, the build is designed so that it integrates the 0-Coast better while keeping it out of the main cab. And this should ALSO play really nicely with the 2s; pairing this with a sequencer is pretty damn close to perfect now. It doesn't address the modules that are already ordered, but if you go with those in this small of a cab, we're back to square one with big modules and nothing to make them really GO. In this sort of space, smallER (not small, period) is better...even if I did manage to keep the Magneto in the build!

Enjoyable romp of a mystery
Another enjoyable romp in the life of Vicky Bliss, assistant curator of Munich’s National Museum, art historian, antiquities expert and amateur sleuth. Elizabeth Peters has a long history of writing wonderfully strong, humorous and intelligent female characters, and in all her series her characters endear themselves to her faithful readers. The Vicky Bliss series takes place in current times rather than the Victorian era of Amelia Peabody and the early Egyptian tomb discoveries in the pyramids, her longest running series. The Laughter of Dead Kings is the sixth book in the series.
That said, this book is a joy to read, mostly conversational as plans are hatched and theories discussed. It is humorous, mysterious, and just good lighthearted reading. The perfect foil to a siege of heavy reading. The characters are so intensely drawn, funny and intelligent, including John, a once notorious thief of antiquities turned antiquities dealer and Vicky’s lover (Is he honest? Maybe, maybe not!). Their escapades, though dangerous, are thoroughly entertaining. Vicky’s boss, known mostly as Schmidt, who fancies himself as a Sherlock Holmes, always manages to find them wherever a “case” is happening and in this book his appearance is very fortuitous and surprising. The character of Schmidt is charming, funny, generous; he pictures himself as Vicky’s protector. I am reminded of an old (black & white) film actor, S.Z. (Cuddles) Sakall.
This time out a body has gone missing; not an ordinary body but one that has been dead for thousands of years, and the race is on. Not only must they find the body in extremely limited time, but they must prove that John is innocent of masterminding the theft. The question is, how could it be done and where would such a thing be hidden? Theories abound and are eliminated, delicate political and archaeological balance is threatened. The suspect list is large and complicated. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to enjoy the action and humour, a light but interesting read. I always learn something new in Elizabeth Peters’ books and this book did not disappoint.

Operation Gladio B is a classified ongoing expansion of Operation Gladio. The original Gladio was established just after the end of World War II by a small number of senior officials within OSS/CIA, MI6 and NATO. This was a top secret network of fascist "stay-behind" cells trained to carry out acts of terrorism in the event of a Soviet invasion. This was exposed in the 1980's after they were used to carry out a string of false flag attacks , mostly in Italy, which were initially blamed on communist groups. As the cold war ended, this strategy of tension was diversified to include Gladio B, which substitutes Muslims for fascists and neo-nazis. It was exposed by FBI whistleblower, Sibel Edmonds, who revealed "Operation Gladio B" as an FBI codename adopted in 1997 for ongoing relations between US intelligence, the Pentagon and Al Qaeda. Daniel Ellsberg has stated that Edmonds possesses information "far more explosive than the Pentagon Papers". She has stated that 9-11 was a Gladio/B Operation
It is our naivete and good hearts that are the MAIN THINGS being used by psychopathic people to achieve what they want. The justification is always so positive - Gaddaffi is killing his people, mass murders are happening in Kosovo, Assad is gassing his own people. Those were all LIES. And in every case it was the Clintons promoting them, in order to bomb Libya and take its oil, to bomb Kosovo for oil pipelines, to try to bomb Syria to run an oil pipeline through it. And in every case, women and children were trafficked.
Out of natural caring about others and susceptibility to positive sounding movements, there was a women's march during the inauguration, against Trump, in which not one of the women were aware that Hillary Clinton - a woman they were sure cared about women and children - is responsible for industrial scale murders and organ harvesting of women, children and men in Haiti (and a lot of other countries as well).
The march was a low point in awareness fueled by stunning do-good ignorance. Pink Hats And Hillary's Mass Murders This is exactly like the sanctuary city push, which is almost certainly funded by Soros, a major funder of Hillary Clinton who sent stingers and sarin gas to terrorists.
People are arguing over ethics of sanctuary cities. But they are missing that sanctuary cities - which SOUND SO GOOD - are a far cry from the "heart-tugging" image the media is barraging the public with. What are the ethics of arranging certain US cities as strongholds for terrorists, using the guise of protecting people who were made refugees by the Clinton Foundation, so those terrorists who are being trained and armed by the Clinton Foundation, can cause civil war in the US?
Is it caring to bring refugees together in certain cities with yet more terrorists funded by the Clinton Foundation and with the same weapons, again?
