The local telecom regulator also announced new security requirements for telecommunications vendors.
Germany's Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) has confirmed that it will award spectrum for the provision of local 5G services in the second half of this year.
Under this process, German companies will be able to apply for spectrum in the 3.7-3.8 GHz band, the regulator said in a statement.
"There is great potential for 5G, especially in the industrial area," BNetzA President Jochen Homann said. "We want to make frequencies available for companies to build local networks that exactly meet their needs."
Several German car makers and industrial companies have already announced plans to take part in the process.
This process is separate to the auction of national 5G licenses that is scheduled to start on March 19. The regulator had previously confirmed it had received applications from four companies to take part in its national 5G auction.
Although BNetzA did not reveal the identity of the interested companies, local press reports suggested that Telefonica Deutschland, Deutsche Telekom and Vodafone, as well as newcomer 1&1 Drillisch will take part in the process.
The regulator also recently published the key elements of its additional security requirements for telecommunications networks and services.
"We revise the security requirements on a regular basis in light of the current security situation and technological developments," Homann said. "Security requirements apply to all network operators and service providers, irrespective of the technology they deploy. All networks, not just individual standards like 5G, are included."
The following additional security requirements are planned:
Germany's Economy Minister Peter Altmaier said the country had no intentions to ban Chinese vendor Huawei from building 5G networks in the country but highlighted that stricter security measures will be adopted for all vendors willing to take part in future network deployments in the country.
ADTRAN joined in Telefónica's 10G PON demonstration at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The demo leveraged an SDN-Enabled Broadband Access (SEBA) architecture, including a virtualized control plane, to deliver converged residential, business and mobile backhaul services. ADTRAN supplied its SDX 10G PON OLTs to aggregate multi-vendor ONTs as part of the demonstration.
ADTRAN SD-Access 10G PON offers an open, disaggregated network by utilizing virtualized access software from the Open Networking Foundation (ONF). This capability enables multiple OLT and ONU vendors to seamlessly interoperate in any environment and allows Telefónica to more easily accelerate the deployment of programmable, software-based service architectures.
"As an ONF partner, ADTRAN provides access solutions for the open networking ecosystem so that service providers around the world can streamline the creation and deployment of revenue-generating services," ADTRAN Americas CTO Robert Conger said. "Telefónica is leveraging ADTRAN's SD-Access portfolio with flexible 10G PON to support existing FTTH subscribers while seamlessly providing a path to higher-bandwidth services."
Huawei unveils 50G PON prototype.
Huawei said it unveiled the world's first single-wavelength 50G passive optical network (PON) prototype at the Mobile World Congress 2019. The prototype can provide 50 Gbps downstream transmission rates and 25 Gbps/50 Gbps upstream transmission rates over a single wavelength.
Compared with 10G PON, the 50G PON technology not only increases the bandwidth fivefold, but also effectively supports innovative services such as 5G and Cloud VR, services which pose strict requirements on delay and clock synchronization, Huawei said.
50G PON has been considered the next-generation PON technology standard for some time, and in February 2018, the ITU-T officially initiated the 50G PON standards project. The standards are expected to be finalized in 2020 and put into commercial use in 2023.
Huawei said it has actively participated in research into 50G PON technology, contributing standards documents and conducting research in collaboration with mainstream global operators. The prototype provides a means of verifying the feasibility of a 50G PON product roadmap.
Developed based on mature 25G optical components, Huawei's 50G PON prototype achieves 50 Gbps transmission rates over a single wavelength through fibre dispersion compensation and transmitter/receiver bandwidth compensation technologies on the physical PON links. Under the 1:64 split ratio, the prototype supports transmissions over 20 km, and enables customers to transition to 50G PON networks without needing to change the ODN of the live network. The prototype is also fully compatible with XG(S)-PON and 10G-EPON in the 50G PON wavelength planning. To protect operators' investment, 50G PON boards are designed so that they can be inserted and run in the Huawei smart distributed OLT MA5800.
Germany-based Software AG has reorganised its channel strategy to prioritise IoT platform deals with the likes of AT&T, 'hyper-scale' cloud deals with the likes of AWS, edge hardware deals with the likes of Dell, and IT and IoT reseller deals with the likes of Tech Data. It will put focus on these partners, and drive incremental IoT revenues via a traditional hard-core of Fortune 500 clients.
This was the message from the company at a small press gathering at the company's headquarters in Darmstadt last week, as it seeks to capitalise on a €24 billion ($25.6bn) market for integration and analytics software, driven by the rush for enterprises to grasp the nettle of digital transformation. It will put heavy focus on certain verticals, where it has most traction. These are industrial IoT, telecoms and logistics. It will also put focus on certain geographies, driving the Industry 4.0 movement hardest. These are the US, China, and Japan, alongside Germany, France and the UK in Europe.
The number of fixed broadband subscribers in the world will rise from the current figure of around 1 billion to 1.2 billion by 2025, according to a report from Point Topic and industry body Broadband Forum. After passing the 1 billion milestone at the end of September 2018, the market is set to continue growing through 2025 thanks above all to booming deep-fibre deployment and accelerating broadband penetration in developing markets.
This week at RSA, the cybersecurity industry's biggest annual conference, Alphabet and its subsidiary Google made a splash with a series of announcements, the biggest one being a new service called Backstory.
Backstory is a product by Alphabet's new cybersecurity arm, Chronicle. A cloud-based system similar to a SIEM (security information and event management), it collects all of a company's security-related log data and protects it with the same security systems that protect the rest of its operations.
Unlike other platforms, which charge based on how much information companies are collecting, Backstory is licensed based on how many employees a company has, a Chronicle spokesperson told us. According to the company, the platform will also be much faster than alternatives. For example, a search of 50 petabytes of logs by "current industry solutions" might take 12 hours, while Backstory would only take a second.
The company spelled out the competitive market it's intending to take on, which includes the entire on-premises data security market, such as SIEMs, Hadoop, and Elasticsearch, as well as security for all the related infrastructure, including servers, networking, and storage. "We really compete with doing security intelligence on your own to try to stop cyberattacks," Alphabet said.
That gives Alphabet a potential edge against other cloud competitors, such as Amazon, that mostly provide cybersecurity for their own cloud infrastructure. The company currently has much smaller cloud market share than Amazon and Microsoft. But companies don't just use one cloud vendor. The largest ones use multiple cloud vendors and colocation facilities in addition to managing their own on-premises data centers.
The service will also pull in data from third-party intelligence sources and cybersecurity vendor partners. "It will be a disrupting force for organizations drowning in security telemetry data".
In addition to virtually unlimited storage and nearly instantaneous speed, Backstory allows customers to pull security data from various sources, such as their antivirus solutions. Then there's Chronicle's Uppercase service, which collects threat signals.
Microsoft last week announced its own SIEM product, Azure Sentinel, but it doesn't have VirusTotal or the scale of Google's internet presence, he said. And Amazon has GuardDuty, a cloud-based SIEM, but it's focused on Amazon's own cloud services.
The downside of everyone switching to Google for cybersecurity would be that that everyone would be defending everything the same exact way.
The first one was the beta release of its Web Risk API. Google scans billions of websites for malicious content, including phishing sites, and keeps a list of the unsafe URLs. This has been used in Google's own services and now enterprises can access the same list with an API call.
Second, Google Cloud Armor, a DDoS protection service, is now officially out of beta. The general release also includes a new dashboard for security admins. The same global infrastructure leveraged to guard things like Gmail, YouTube, and Google's search engine itself against DDoS is now available to enterprises for the same purpose.
Both Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure also offer cloud-based DDoS mitigation.
Many government agencies and financial institutions require their cloud service providers to offer HSMs, said Pescatore, and Azure and AWS both offer them.
With more and more security tools becoming available natively on the cloud platforms enterprises use, the standard advice of defense in depth is still valid. That means using different security vendors and technologies to protect infrastructure, applications, endpoints, and networks, he said. "The better the layered approach, the more effective the security program."
Deutsche Telekom is building faster internet connections for millions of customers. Over the last four weeks, Deutsche Telekom has been increasing connection speeds to up to 250 Mbit/s (megabits per second) for 2.1 million lines. The number of lines with speeds of 250 Mbit/s has grown to its current total of nearly 19 million. The number of lines with up to 100 Mbit/s has been increased by around 444,000 lines by retrofitting VDSL areas with vectoring technology. You can see the total number of households now in a position to use a rate offering 100 Mbits or more per second as well as the current build-out statistics per hour, per day and per week at www.telekom.de/ausbauticker.
Smart network management - The task of maintaining and building out the network is a central part of our intelligent network management. This network management effort is guided both by the technological opportunities available and by customers' wishes. It forms part of Deutsche Telekom's core competencies. The ultimate goal is to make the network ready for the gigabit society. The groundwork to reach this goal is provided by Deutsche Telekom's own constantly growing fiber-optic network. After all, the nodes that link the customers to the core network need to be connected using optical fiber. Then data will travel smoothly at very high speeds.
Actively working all over Germany - The figures reveal yet another of Deutsche Telekom's strengths. The business is making far more effort in Germany than any other provider. From north to south and east to west, from the big cities to the smallest communities, people everywhere are reaping the benefits of Deutsche Telekom's efforts. In only the last four weeks, for example, cities including Berlin, Mannheim and Stuttgart have been provided with several thousand lines, with municipalities like Bad Grönenbach, Ennigerloh und Ratekau benefiting from several dozen new internet lines during the same period.
Verizon has acquired ProtectWise, a Colorado-based company which provides cloud-delivered Network Detection and Response. Financial terms were not disclosed.
"Integrating ProtectWise's capabilities with Verizon's leading global network services further enhances our ability to detect and respond to security threats," said Alex Schlager, executive director, product management and development, Verizon. "In addition, as we rapidly expand our 5G footprint, increasing our capacity and capabilities in network detection and response will secure our customers as they adapt and expand with the next generation of connectivity."
"ProtectWise has dedicated the last five years to building a next-generation Network Detection and Response platform that's been recognized as one of the leading technologies in the cybersecurity industry," said Scott Chasin, ProtectWise CEO and Co-Founder. "Our technology and the outstanding team behind it will be great assets to Verizon as the company expands its enterprise security offerings. We look forward to becoming a part of Verizon to deliver immediate value to our customers, partners and team based on the company's strong security market presence and global reach."

Qualcomm offers Mesh Wi-Fi design kit for Amazon Alexa.
Qualcomm is introducing a development kit for mesh Wi-Fi networks, qualified by Amazon, to integrate the Amazon Alexa Voice Service (AVS). This helps manufacturers to quickly create mesh Wi-Fi systems with Alexa for bringing the convenience of voice control to connected devices throughout the home.
Voice control is becoming a new way for consumers to be able to more easily manage their smart home devices. The addition of Alexa, integrated via the ClearVoice far-field voice enhancement software solution from Meeami Technologies, makes it easy for mesh networking manufacturers to provide leading voice capabilities to their customers layered on the Qualcomm Wi-Fi mesh platforms.
"Mesh networks have become the new standard to support the best possible connected experience in the home. By adding Amazon's advanced voice capabilities through the Alexa Voice Service, we are unlocking new opportunities for customers to enable exciting new smart home experiences controlled with the simplicity of voice," said Nick Kucharewski, vice president and general manager, Wireless Infrastructure and Networking, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. "By integrating our mesh platform with Alexa, we create a powerful development kit that is designed to enable device manufacturers to quickly and economically bring innovative new products to market and meet the development speed of this fast-growing market.
Amazon has ended its sales of Dash buttons, though the company will continue to fill orders for consumers who use them. The Dash device was a precursor to the connected home but has become less useful in light of other ordering options, such as connected appliances and smart speakers.

China's three mobile carriers are currently carrying out 5G field trials in urban areas across the Asian country.
China is expected to invest CNY900 billion-CNY1.5 trillion billion ($134 billion – $223 billion) in the deployment of 5G networks during the 2020-2025 period, Digitimes reported, citing information from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT).
During the same period, the direct and indirect economic value derived from the commercial operations of 5G networks in the Chinese market will reach CNY10.6 trillion ($1.6 trillion) and CNY24.8 trillion ($3.7 trillion) respectively, according to the academy.
Meanwhile, related 5G revenues generated by China's telecom operators will total CNY1.9 trillion ($283 billion) during the projected period, CAICT added.

Lesson 299
Graphic by ©Deposit Photos
Like you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but as a mind which brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he dreams, nor is his body, "hero" of the dream, your brother. It is his
that is your brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have joined with his.
WORKBOOK for STUDENTS

Example MP3
The real world is a symbol, like the rest
of what perception offers. Yet it stands
for what is opposite to what you made.
Your world is seen through eyes of fear, and brings
the witnesses of terror to your mind.
The real world cannot be perceived except
through eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see
a world where terror is impossible,
and witnesses to fear can not be found.
The real world holds a counterpart for each
unhappy thought reflected in your world;
a sure correction for the sights of fear
and sounds of battle which your world contains.
The real world shows a world seen differently,
through quiet eyes and with a mind at peace.
Nothing but rest is here. There are no cries
of pain and sorrow heard, for nothing here
remains outside forgiveness. And the sights
are gentle. Only happy sights and sounds
can reach the mind that has forgiven itself.
What need has such a mind for thoughts of death,
attack and murder? What can it perceive
surrounding it but safety, love and joy?
What is there it would choose to be condemned,
and what is there that it would judge against?
The world it sees arises from a mind
at peace within itself. No danger lurks
in anything it sees, for it is kind
and only kindness does it look upon.
The real world is the symbol that the dream
of sin and guilt is over, and God's Son
no longer sleeps. His waking eyes perceive
the sure reflection of his Father's Love;
the certain promise that he is redeemed.
The real world signifies the end of time,
for this perception makes time purposeless.
The Holy Spirit has no need of time
when it has served His purpose. Now He waits
but that one instant more for God to take
His final step, and time has disappeared,
taking perception with it as it goes,
and leaving but the Truth to be Itself.
That instant is our goal, for it contains
the memory of God. And as we look
upon a world forgiven, it is He
Who calls to us and comes to take us home,
reminding us of our Identity
Which our forgiveness has restored to us.

Eternal holiness abides in me.
Voice and Music by CIMS SonShip Radio
My holiness is far beyond my own
ability to understand or know.
Yet God my Father, Who created it,
acknowledges my holiness as His.
Our Will, together, understands it. And
our Will, together, knows that it is so.
Father, my holiness is not of me.
It is not mine to be destroyed by sin.
It is not mine to suffer from attack.
Illusions can obscure it, but can not
put out its radiance nor dim its light.
It stands forever perfect and untouched.
In it are all things healed, for they remain
as You created them. And I can know
my holiness. For Holiness Itself
created me, and I can know my Source
because it is Your Will that You be known.

ACIM Edmonton - Sarah's Reflections
Eternal holiness abides in me.
Sarah's Commentary:
It is reassuring to know we can't corrupt our holiness no matter what we do.
"My holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or know."
(W.299.1.1) Yet since my holiness is God's who created it,
"Our Will, together, understands it."
(W.299.1.3) Only when our ego is out of the way and we are plugged into our Source can we know our holiness. God
we know Him, and our own will is to know Him. When we unite our will with God's, which we do by releasing all that stands in the way, we can know our holiness.
We are assured by Jesus that holiness is eternal, abides in us, is our true nature, and indeed is our identity as the Christ Self. Yet when we experience anger, judgments, attacks, worries, betrayal, specialness, or temptations of any kind, we doubt our purity and our innocence, even though they are always there. If we don't experience our divine nature, we are actually choosing against it. We are, instead, choosing to identify with our thoughts and believe in them, and our thoughts are what lead to our experience. Investigating our thoughts and questioning their reality is how we bring them to light. When we don't feel a deep abiding connection to our Source but hold a lot of spiritual concepts, it is an indication we are putting on a "cloak of holiness. " This is the spiritual ego. It may look like a façade of niceness, sweetness, generosity, or innocence.
With this façade in place, we conceal emotions we judge as negative. We reject radical self-honesty and deep self-inquiry. We may compare ourselves as better or more spiritual than others. We may act superior, believing in our own intellectual understanding of spiritual principles as reflected in the Course. Holding onto concepts is actually a defense against awakening to who we are. This is all about the image of the personal self we defend. It is the spiritual ego that must be undone to know who we really are. We can't know our holiness and still identify with the individual, bodily self.
I have been reading a book called
Awakening into Oneness
, by Arjuna Ardagh, which speaks beautifully about this mistaken concept of the spiritual ego. In the book, there is a quote by a Tibetan Buddhist teacher, Lama Surya Das, who calls this belief in one's enlightenment, "premature
." He describes it as someone who has had a peak spiritual experience and continues to cling to the memory of that experience, persuading themselves, and anyone else who will listen, that they have reached the pinnacles of enlightenment. It is then something craved for or talked about, but it is still an obsession with the "me" having these experiences. The problem is that honest self-reflection and genuine curiosity has ceased. It is not unlike the story of Jack Kornfield in his book,
After the Ecstasy, the Laundry
. Kornfield speaks of how holy he felt while in the monastery. He thought he had achieved a significant level of peace and harmony, but when he came back into the world, the same issues he had in his relationships before he entered the monastery were still there.
My life looked much like that during the time I was single. I felt I had achieved a high level of peace and I had gone a long way in my healing. Miracles were evident in my life and I felt loved and supported. I was living in a spiritual community in Sedona with few responsibilities. Life seemed to be in a beautiful flow. Then the next level came up for healing. It came through a relationship, where every button was being pushed. We got together under the auspices that the relationship would be dedicated to only one purpose---to heal. The relationship just seemed to happen without the romantic attachment that had initiated all of my other special relationships. It felt like it was orchestrated, at some level, for my healing, and although I did not experience "being in love," I did feel somehow this person was supposed to be in my life. Some years later, I recognized what a gift he has been in helping me to see so many layers of my unhealed mind. No, it has not been a lot of fun at times, but it has significantly accelerated my healing.
When we dedicate our special relationships to healing and holiness, Jesus tells us,
"For here, the goal of the relationship is abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of what it was."
(T.17.V.2.6) (ACIM OE T.17.V.44) Hence, our goal for the relationship is replaced by His goal.
"This is accomplished very rapidly, but it makes the relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive and even distressing."
(T.17.V.3.3) (ACIM OE T.17.V.45) The answer the ego gives to this kind of seeming incompatibility is to leave the relationship. My ego was telling me to do just that. "Go back to Sedona!"
"Many relationships have been broken off at this point, and the pursuit of the old goal reestablished in another relationship."
(T.17.V.3.8) (ACIM OE T.17.V.45) Yet I intuitively knew this relationship was perfectly set up by Spirit. It was actually set up perfectly by us and for us by our own right mind. While to the Spirit it was delicious, the ego rebelled tremendously; although, here I am today, feeling such love for the person I thought I did not want in my life. I am so grateful for this opportunity provided through this relationship to recognize
unconscious guilt in the form of anger and rage, which I had kept hidden from myself. I am so grateful for all the healing that has come about in the last few years. It has been such a gift. While the healing continues, it has become more gentle, and I do not deceive myself that there are not many more layers of defenses that need to be looked at. Jesus illustrates this process for us in the Manual for Teachers, where he defines the stages in the development of trust.
The ego tells us we will feel more holy or more spiritual if we are "sorry," if we are more "loving," if we are more "helpful" to people, if we become more "informed" about this Course, if we are more "ethical," if we eat only vegetables, and if we help the "less fortunate." All of these are good on the level of form, but this Course is about undoing the wrong-minded thought system through forgiveness. It is not about good deeds but where our minds are when we are giving of ourselves. We have many ways of putting on the cloak of
because we think it is up to us to make ourselves holy. We think by being "nice" and by pleasing others, we can somehow cover up our judgments. We think we can hide our resentments and overlook the fact we are really giving in order to get something, whether it is recognition, appreciation, respect, love, or specialness in any form.
How do we know eternal holiness abides in us? Where is the evidence? Jesus says,
"And I can know my holiness."
(W.299.2.7) It is not hidden from us. It is not an obscure part of us. It is the truth about us. It is who we are. It is our Identity, but it is hidden from our awareness by illusion.
"Illusions can obscure it, but can not put out its radiance, nor dim its light."
(W.299.2.4) The illusions that obscure our holiness are like the clouds that obscure the sun. The sun is always shining, but it is not in our experience when the
, overcast sky obscures it. These clouds are all of the judgments and grievances we hold.
How do we connect with the truth? We need to release our way of trying to make ourselves holy and instead go beyond the clouds of our own judgments, our anger, our specialness, our expectations, our control, and join with His Will for only
"Our Will, together, understands it. And Our Will, together, knows that it is so."
". . . I can know my Source because it is Your Will that You be Known."
(W.299.2.8) This takes discipline in doing the practice daily. It takes an investment in looking at our thoughts throughout the day and being willing to take responsibility for them. Jesus asks us to be happy learners, meaning that everything that comes up in our day is all for the undoing of the mind. When we welcome it all, we don't judge any of it as good or bad. In fact, it is all perfectly orchestrated. Thus, we can go through our day with inspiration, rather than
victimized by what is happening around us and to us.
We hold onto our guilt in the belief that we need to suffer. Today, I said
to someone who was asking me for help. My guidance was that the help being requested was not appropriate for me to offer, but I felt uncomfortable saying no. There was guilt that I "should" be helpful to everyone who asks. I felt guilty because I have been invested in people-pleasing. When this is examined deeply, we can see it comes from our belief in our own unworthiness. It is based on needing to be liked, which is not about asking and following the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Yet when our giving does not come from truth, we are sacrificing, which results in anger. In fact, the "gift" we think we are giving is actually a "gift" of guilt, resentment, and anger. When we "give" because we should, nothing of value is truly being given.
As Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj says,
"Don't pretend to be what you are not, don't refuse to be what you are. Your love of others is the result of self-knowledge, not its cause. Without self-realization, no virtue is genuine. When you know beyond all doubting that the same life flows through all that is and you are that life, you will love all naturally and spontaneously."
How willing are you to reverse your current thinking? How determined are you to be right in the way you think now? To reverse our current way of thinking requires an
that illusions are false and truth is true. That means we must look at our thoughts and acknowledge we have been mistaken. We simply do not know anything when we rely on our limited perceptions. We will be taken to truth only as far and as fast as we are ready and willing to go. It is up to us when and how. No one who believes he is guilty can know his holiness. If we insist on seeing guilt in our brothers, we are telling God His proclamation of our brother's innocence and our
is wrong. If we hold onto our beliefs in our unworthiness and our lacks, God would have to be wrong about our holiness. The beliefs we hold about ourselves are, in fact, arrogant because they defy God's proclamation of who we are.
The beliefs and concepts I hold about myself have never changed my reality. I can believe I have changed my reality. I can believe I have destroyed my innocence. I can believe I have altered myself and changed my nature by my evil deeds and attacks, but this
and many
reminding me that I can't change the truth about myself. Eternal holiness abides in me. Our attacks on ourselves haven't worked to change what we are. We are still the holy Son of God, and we will always remain as pure and holy as our Creator. There is nothing to become. There is only the undoing of what we have made, and the bridge to our identity is forgiveness. It is the undoing of the illusion.
Sin and guilt, which occupy our minds and hide the truth from our awareness, will disappear when we have used
for its intended purpose.
"The Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose."
(W.PII.Q8.5.1) Time and perception will both disappear when we have accepted the truth of who we are. An important question with regard to everything in this world is, "What is it for?" Time can be used by the Holy Spirit if we give it to Him for our healing. We need not get discouraged about how long this will take.
"If you are tempted to be dispirited by thinking how long it would take to change your mind so completely, ask yourself, 'How long is an instant'? Could you not give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for your salvation?"
The key to it all is our willingness, which is what Jesus tells us takes a lot longer. Since this Course is all about healing through relationships, that willingness to heal starts with our relationships. As Jesus says,
"You will never give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of holiness is shared, and cannot be yours alone. Remember, then, when you are tempted to attack a brother, that his instant of release is yours."
(T.15.I.12.1-3) (ACIM OE T.15.II.13) This Course is ultimately practical. We release ourselves when we release our brother from our judgments, from our guilt, from condemnation, and from the demands we make of him due to our specialness, where we see ourselves as the center of the universe.
What we need to do is to be willing to look at our thoughts and beliefs and simply acknowledge they are not the truth. When we are willing to look at them honestly together with the gentle support of Jesus/Holy Spirit, we can start the undoing process. Looking in this way means we look without judging ourselves. We ask the Holy Spirit to reinterpret our mistaken perceptions. Everything we project onto our brothers is a reflection of some unhealed guilt in our own minds. The truth is, eternal holiness abides in us, and there is nothing we can do, or have done, that can change this about ourselves.
Love and blessings, Sarah

A Course in Miracles
Chapter Twenty Eight
The Undoing of Fear
V. The Greater Joining
Accepting the Atonement for yourself means not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and of death. It means that you share not his wish to separate and let him turn illusions on himself. Nor do you wish that they be turned instead on you. Thus have they
effects. And you are free of dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you will suffer pain with him because that is your wish. And you become a figure in his dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both become illusions and without identity. You could be anyone or anything, depending on whose evil dream you share. You can be sure of just one thing---that you are evil, for you share in dreams of fear.
There is a way of finding certainty right
Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever form they take, for you
lose identity in them. You
yourself by not accepting them as causing you and giving you effects. You stand apart from them but not apart from him who dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the dream and join in one but let the other
. The dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you
unite, but
with the dream. It is the dream you fear and
the mind. You see them as the same because you think that
are but a dream. And what is real and what is but illusion in yourself you do not know and cannot tell apart.
Like you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but as a mind which brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he dreams, nor is his body, "hero" of the dream, your brother. It is his
that is your brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have joined with his.
And yet, between your minds there
no gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams would separate from you. Therefore, release him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his illusions by your faith, for if you do, you will have faith in
With faith in yours,
will not be released, and
are kept in bondage to his dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions which you have supported in each other's minds.
Be certain, if you do your part, he will do his, for he will join you where you stand. Call not to him to meet you in the gap between you, or you must believe that it is your reality as well as his. You
do his part, but this you
when you become a passive figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the dream are one. Who
a dream must
the dream he shares because by sharing is a cause produced.
You share confusion and you
confused, for in the gap no stable self exists. What is the same seems different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His dreams are yours because you
them be. But if you took your own away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the truth of yours. Yet if you see there
no truth in yours, his dreams will go, and he will understand what
the dream.
The Holy Spirit is in
your minds, and He is One because there is no gap that separates His Oneness from Itself. The gap between your bodies matters not, for what is joined in Him is
one. No one is sick if someone else accepts his union with him. His desire to be a sick and separated mind cannot remain without a witness or a cause. And
are gone if someone wills to be united with him. He has dreams that he was separated from his brother who, by sharing not his dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the Holy Spirit joined.
The Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into place again. This holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold out to every separate piece that thinks it is a picture in itself. To each he offers his identity, which the whole picture represents, instead of just a little broken bit which he insisted was himself. And when he sees
picture, he will recognize himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, this
the picture that the miracle will place within the little gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the Father will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to himself.
I thank you, Father, knowing you will come to close each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. And they
joined because what is in one is in them all. How holy is the smallest grain of sand when it is recognized as being part of the completed picture of God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of God is just the same as every other part.
Join not your brother's dreams but join with
, and where you join His Son, the Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he has lost nothing? Who would
to have the "benefits" of sickness when he has received the simple happiness of health? What God has given cannot
a loss, and what is not of Him has no effects. What then would you perceive within the gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there is
in separation, and its giving up would be a
. But miracles are the result when you do not insist on seeing in the gap what is not there. Your willingness to
illusions go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the miracle of healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there will be
loss, but

Today, most of our social interactions are infused with visuals. People are always snapping photos of themselves, their family, their food they eat, as well as the places they go to, and share it with their family and friends. Seeing the amount of engagement these types of posts get, businesses followed suit. This has led to the rise of visual social media platforms like Instagram.
Here are 4 reasons why we love Instagram, and why you should too.
Drives more engaged traffic
According to studies, photos are the primary type of content that gets the most number of likes, shares, and comments. In a content-rich world, you need to step up your visual marketing game or you'll be left behind.
Today, new social media channels are coming and going, but Instagram remains the undisputed king of per follow interaction rate. Behind-the-scenes content, user-generated images, human faces, food, and inspirational quotes are the types of content that get the most engagement. Make sure that you post these types of images to get more attention from your fans.
Cross-channel engagement
One of the biggest advantages of using Instagram is that it makes it easier for you to share the content you created across different marketing channels. For instance, the content you share on your Instagram account can be shared on Facebook and Twitter. It can even be used in your email marketing.
Even if you have no plans of sharing them on different social networking platforms right now, you can save the images on your phone's cameral roll, and easily access them whenever you want.
Learn what people like
Just like Facebook and Twitter, Instagram now offers analytical data that will help business owners analyze user demographics and behavioral data. It will give you an insight as to how your content is performing. This information will make it easier for you to identify the type of content that gets the most engagement and create similar posts. What's more, it also tells you when your audience is most active on Instagram and the average time your followers are on Instagram on a typical day.
It's great for building your brand
Studies suggest that people don't necessarily hate ads. Rather, they hate bad, annoying, and intrusive ads. Most people respond to Instagram posts because they don't see them as ads. In fact, you can't include links in your posts.
This may seem like a bummer for business owners who are looking to drive revenue from Instagram. Instead of using this platform to promote your business, use it to build your brand. Your followers are more likely to interact with your company since they know that you're not trying to sell to them. Connecting with your followers on a regular basis will help you build a relationship with them and help you gain their trust.

* Minnow Pond Trail and the ADKX Boathouse are officially CLOSED for the season. *
Minnow Pond Trail is generally open daily, July 1 – September 13, depending on weather, trail conditions, and events. The trail and boathouse may close without notice. Please call ahead to plan your visit. (518) 352-7311
A short hike from the center of campus, take an easy ¾-mile walk and discover "a gem in the wilderness"—Minnow Pond. A trail to Minnow Pond dates back to this site's early settlement history and was admired by Miles Merwin, the original builder and owner of the Blue Mountain House (1874-1953). Suitable for the whole family, the trail is open daily from July to September, depending on weather, trail conditions, and special events. This is a natural trail; it has uneven surfaces and some short, steep rises. It may not be accessible for people with limited mobility.
When walking Minnow Pond Trail, learn about the connections between land and water in the Adirondacks. Hunters and trappers who long ago navigated the region needed a boat that was easy to move over land and on water; thus emerged the guideboat, a unique vessel that was built specifically to meet the challenging landscape of the region. You'll also learn about the people who were so moved by the recreational wonders of the Adirondacks, they committed themselves to protect the range of habitats found here.
At Minnow Pond, you will see why many consider the Adirondacks a boater's paradise; the region is home to roughly 3,000 lakes and ponds and 30,000 miles of rivers and streams—many only reached by trails—The endlessly interconnected waterways are prized by those looking for a quiet outing or a wilderness adventure.
Minnow Pond is a small, roughly 90-acre waterbody above Blue Mountain Lake and is part of the Raquette River watershed. Surrounded by mixed forest, this serene pond is home to loons, otters, beavers, wood ducks, frogs, salamanders, and a variety of fish. Located at approximately 2,000 feet in elevation, the pond's shoreline consists of coniferous and deciduous forests as well as wetlands.
The ADKX Boathouse has something for everyone, from novices to experienced paddlers and rowers. Here you will find vintage boats from the Adirondacks, northern New York, and other northeastern states—the types of boats that have plied the region's waters for years. Traditional guideboats and rowboats as well as vintage canoes may be available for rent. Boats in this special collection require restoration and care; not all boats will be available at all times. Boat availability may change without notice.
Designed by Michael Bird, founder and principal of Adirondack Design, the ADKX Boathouse references Adirondack rustic architecture while a covered deck features peeled log columns and beams.
Skiffs and other rowboats
Standard boats (Wood canvas canoes, skiffs, aluminum canoes)
60 minute rental: $25 for non-members/$15 for members
30 minute rental: $13 for non-members/$8 for members
Special boats (guideboats, select all wood canoes)

When we talk about audiobooks, people oftentimes think about the long gone days of storytelling. The way stories were narrated and passed down to the younger generation before written language advanced and the art of reading became the mainstream for a majority. Reading is not only about decoding and pronouncing words right, but it also helps to understand and grasp whatever you read. Now, considering the goal of reading books, an audiobook serves the same purpose.
With that said and the goal in mind, let's look at the 5 Benefits of Audiobooks for Active Readers:
1. Enhances Language Fluency
Boosts your reading accuracy and enhances critical listening skills. Audiobooks are learning tools that promote critical listening skills. They are essential in helping students to read accurately and fluently. Audiobooks allow students to read while listening, ensuring the correct pronunciation of words. More to that, it enhances the reading speed, fluency, and pronunciation. In fulfilling the purpose of reading, audiobooks improve language fluency, reading accuracy, and listening skills because the students can listen and read at the same time.
2. Promotes Storytelling and Enriches Students Linguistically
Other than enhancing the reading and listening skills, audiobooks also promote storytelling. When students listen to and read the verbally rich text, the chances are that they'll feel more inspired and motivated to speak the language better and correctly. Also, they are likely to talk about the book while relating to the things they read or listen to as well as their own experiences. The more a student uses audiobooks, the more they acquire the right language skills to share in their voice.
3. Encourage Faster Learning
The most exciting thing about audiobooks is that it boosts the pace at which you consume information or learn. Besides, you have the option of adjusting the speed of playing an audiobook. When you play it at a rate of 1.5x or 2x, and it doesn't affect your comprehension, then it means you can learn faster. If you have a pile of information to go through or a broad topic to cover, audiobooks would be the best for that.
4. Saves Time
Even though multitasking is discouraged in many circumstances, it can be effective and useful when it comes to audiobooks. You can complete several house chores while listening to an audiobook, such as cleaning the dishes, cooking, ironing clothes, or any other task that is not so engaging.
Audiobooks are beneficial, especially when you are moving or travelling. You can learn much while touring while going to work or when stuck in a traffic jam. Besides, it keeps you busy and less bored in situations like that.
5. Convenient and Versatile
Using audiobooks is one of the most convenient ways of learning. They are compatible with mobile phones, iPods, computers, or cars. This makes it more accessible, and you can always pick up from where you left it last time. With books, you need a quiet place and full engagement to grasp a thing, but audiobooks are easier to comprehend and use regardless of your location, time, or noise level. They are amazingly convenient.

Open City Documentary Festival 2018 – Competition: Jamilia
Jamilia, which has its UK premiere at Open City Documentary Festival on September 9th, explores the heroine of Chingiz Aitmatov's novel. Thanks to SAQI Books we have three copies of the novel, labelled 'The most beautiful love story in the world' by French poet Louis Aragon, to be won.
To enter the competition;
Book tickets to see Jamilia here
Recorded in Kyrgyzstan, artist filmmaker Aminatou Echard's first feature length work searches for Jamilia, the eponymous heroine of Chingiz Aitmatov's classic 1958 novel about a young woman who, having been abducted and forced to marry, fled with her lover. Fifty years after the book's publishing, Echard travels to meet several generations of Kyrgyz women. The film that resulted from her research is a delicate and impressionistic Super 8 portrait of the country reflected through the prism of their stories, exploring a culture where the patriarchal system curbs their freedom to work, desire, love, live or dream, yet resistance remains.
The film will be followed by a Q&A with director Aminatou Echard, hosted by Jo Duncombe. In partnership with Bird's Eye View.
T's & C's
- Competition closes September 3.
- Prizes must be collected from the festival hub in central London during the festival, September 4-9.

Michael was excited to begin his college football career as a Center for a prestigious Southern California University. Shortly after the season began, Michael sustained 2 concussions on 2 consecutive days leaving him physically and emotionally sick. He was almost immediately flown home to Scottsdale, Arizona where he was rushed to the emergency room, after experiencing unresponsive episodes, which his Dad recorded on his cell phone.
Concerned friends and neighbors, after hearing about the seriousness of Michael's situation, told his parents that they needed to take him to Brain State Technologies® for Brainwave Optimization®. The family made an appointment for Michael to begin sessions.
Michael was different, and significantly improved, after the first day. He had both Brainwave Optimization, and used the BRAINtellect® 2 headband at home each night.

At Moo-Lolly-Bar we dispatch all orders via either Australia Express or Registered Post (depending on the size or number of shipping boxes required) or Fastway Couriers, as we believe collectively they are the safest, most reliable and cost effective way of dispatching confectionery items to customers in a warm weather country like Australia. Both methods are also fully trackable.
Of the two, Fastway is our preferred method so if you live in non-remote areas of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria or Adelaide and Canberra we will more likely than not send your order via this courier as standard.
Similarly if you live in parts of the country that Fastway does not service in a timescale of less than 1-4 working days then your order will be dispatched via Australia Post.
As a general rule any order that can fit into an Australia Express or Registered Parcel Post 3kg or 5kg satchel will be sent via that method. If the products you ordered do not fit into an Australia Express or Registered Parcel Post 3kg or 5kg satchel then they will be sent to you via Australia Registered Post.
Regardless of the courier we use you will receive via email a tracking number that will allow you to track the progress of that order. Either by visiting http://www.auspost.com.au/ or http://www.fastway.com.au/.

Memory accesses in modern processors are both far slower and vastly more energy-expensive than the actual computations. To improve performance, processors spend a significant amount of energy and resources trying to hide and reduce the memory latency. To hide the latency, processors use out-order-order execution to overlap memory accesses with independent work and aggressive speculative instruction scheduling to execute dependent instructions back-to-back. To reduce the latency, processors use several levels of caching that keep frequently used data closer to the processor. However, these optimizations are not for free. Out-of-order execution requires expensive processor resources, and speculative scheduling must re-execute instructions on incorrect speculations, and multi-level caching requires extra energy and latency to search the cache hierarchy. This thesis investigates several energy-efficient techniques for: 1) hiding the latency in the processor pipeline, and 2) reducing the latency in the memory hierarchy.
Much of the inefficiencies of hiding latency in the processor come from two sources. First, processors need several large and expensive structures to do out-of-order execution (instructions queue, register file, etc.). These resources are typically allocated in program order, effectively giving all instructions equal priority. To reduce the size of these expensive resources without hurting performance, we propose Long Term Parking (LTP). LTP parks non-critical instructions before they allocate resources, thereby making room for critical memory accessing instructions to continue and expose more memory-level parallelism. This enables us to save energy by shrinking the resources sizes without hurting performance. Second, when a load's data returns, the load's dependent instructions need to be scheduled and executed. To execute the dependent instructions back-to-back, the processor will speculatively schedule instructions before the processor knows if the input data will be available at execution time. To save energy, we investigate different scheduling techniques that reduce the number of re-executions due to misspeculation.
The inefficiencies of traditional memory hierarchies come from the need to do level-by-level searches to locate data. The search starts at the L1 cache, then proceeds level by level until the data is found, or determined not to be in any cache, at which point the processor has to fetch the data from main memory. This wastes time and energy for every level that is searched. To reduce the latency, we propose tracking the location of the data directly in a separate metadata hierarchy. This allows us to directly access the data without needing to search. The processor simply queries the metadata hierarchy for the location information about where the data is stored. Separating metadata into its own hierarchy brings a wide range of additional benefits, including flexibility in how we place data storages in the hierarchy, the ability to intelligently store data in the hierarchy, direct access to remote cores, and many other data-oriented optimizations that can leverage our precise knowledge of where data are located.
Modern processors employ large structures (IQ, LSQ, register file, etc.) to expose instruction-level parallelism (ILP) and memory-level parallelism (MLP). These resources are typically allocated to instructions in program order. This wastes resources by allocating resources to instructions that are not yet ready to be executed and by eagerly allocating resources to instructions that are not part of the application's critical path.
This work explores the possibility of allocating pipeline resources only when needed to expose MLP, and thereby enabling a processor design with significantly smaller structures, without sacrificing performance. First we identify the classes of instructions that should not reserve resources in program order and evaluate the potential performance gains we could achieve by delaying their allocations. We then use this information to "park" such instructions in a simpler, and therefore more efficient, Long Term Parking (LTP) structure. The LTP stores instructions until they are ready to execute, without allocating pipeline resources, and thereby keeps the pipeline available for instructions that can generate further MLP.
LTP can accurately and rapidly identify which instructions to park, park them before they execute, wake them when needed to preserve performance, and do so using a simple queue instead of a complex IQ. We show that even a very simple queue-based LTP design allows us to significantly reduce IQ (64 →32) and register file (128→96) sizes while retaining MLP performance and improving energy efficiency.
To maximize performance, out-of-order execution processors sometimes issue instructions without having the guarantee that operands will be available in time; e.g. loads are typically assumed to hit in the L1 cache and dependent instructions are issued accordingly. This form of speculation - that we refer to as speculative scheduling - has been used for two decades in real processors, but has received little attention from the research community. In particular, as pipeline depth grows, and the distance between the Issue and the Execute stages increases, it becomes critical to issue instructions dependent on variable-latency instructions as soon as possible rather than wait for the actual cycle at which the result becomes available. Unfortunately, due to the uncertain nature of speculative scheduling, the scheduler may wrongly issue an instruction that will not have its source(s) available on the bypass network when it reaches the Execute stage. In that event, the instruction is canceled and replayed, potentially impairing performance and increasing energy consumption. In this work, we do not present a new replay mechanism. Rather, we focus on ways to reduce the number of replays that are agnostic of the replay scheme. First, we propose an easily implementable, low-cost solution to reduce the number of replays caused by L1 bank conflicts. Schedule shifting always assumes that, given a dual-load issue capacity, the second load issued in a given cycle will be delayed because of a bank conflict. Its dependents are thus always issued with the corresponding delay. Second, we also improve on existing L1 hit/miss prediction schemes by taking into account instruction criticality. That is, for some criterion of criticality and for loads whose hit/miss behavior is hard to predict, we show that it is more cost-effective to stall dependents if the load is not predicted critical.
First level caches are performance-critical and are therefore optimized for speed. To do so, modern processors reduce the miss ratio by using set-associative caches and optimize latency by reading all ways in parallel with the TLB and tag lookup. However, this wastes energy since only data from one way is actually used.
To reduce energy, phased-caches and way-prediction techniques have been proposed wherein only data of the matching/predicted way is read. These optimizations increase latency and complexity, making them less attractive for first level caches.
Instead of adding new functionality on top of a traditional cache, we propose a new cache design that adds way index information to the TLB. This allow us to: 1) eliminate ex-tra data array reads (by reading the right way directly), 2) avoid tag comparisons (by eliminating the tag array), 3) later out misses (by checking the TLB), and 4) amortize the TLB lookup energy (by integrating it with the way information). In addition, the new cache can directly replace existing caches without any modication to the processor core or software.
This new Tag-Less Cache (TLC) reduces the dynamic energy for a 32 kB, 8-way cache by 60% compared to a VIPT cache without aecting performance.
Modern processors optimize for cache energy and performance by employing multiple levels of caching that address bandwidth, low-latency and high-capacity. A request typically traverses the cache hierarchy, level by level, until the data is found, thereby wasting time and energy in each level. In this paper, we present the Direct-to-Data (D2D) cache that locates data across the entire cache hierarchy with a single lookup.
To navigate the cache hierarchy, D2D extends the TLB with per cache-line location information that indicates in which cache and way the cache line is located. This allows the D2D cache to: 1) skip levels in the hierarchy (by accessing the right cache level directly), 2) eliminate extra data array reads (by reading the right way directly), 3) avoid tag comparisons (by eliminating the tag arrays), and 4) go directly to DRAM on cache misses (by checking the TLB). This reduces the L2 latency by 40% and saves 5-17% of the total cache hierarchy energy.
D2D´s lower L2 latency directly improves L2 sensitive applications´ performance by 5-14%. More significantly, we can take advantage of the L2 latency reduction to optimize other parts of the microarchitecture. For example, we can reduce the ROB size for the L2 bound applications by 25%, or we can reduce the L1 cache size, delivering an overall 21% energy savings across all benchmarks, without hurting performance.

Parents: 5 overlooked tax breaks when filing taxes in 2018
Kids can put a hurt on the checking account, that's for sure.
But here comes income-tax season: the time of year when kids, both small and college-age, can actually put money back into your account. Moms and dads need only take advantage of Uncle Sam's tax credit and deductions. The result could pay off by trimming that tax bill by thousands of dollars.
Sandy Abalos, the principal in charge of the REDW Phoenix office, a financial services firm, identified five of the most often missed tax breaks for families:
"While families are generally aware of the more common tax breaks, such as dependent exemptions, child tax credits, filing status and deductions, these (other benefits) often fly under the radar leaving hard-earned money on the table."
In the past, if parents paid back a student loan, no one got a tax break. To get a deduction, the law said that you had to be both liable for the debt and actually pay it yourself.
But now there's an exception. If the parents pay back the loan, the IRS treats it as though they gave the money to their child, who then paid the debt. So a child who's not claimed as a dependent may qualify to deduct up to $2,500 of student loan interest paid by mom and dad.
Contributions to 529 plans are not deductible for federal tax purposes, but most states offer deductions or some form of credit made for contributions to a 529. Arizona, for example, allows a deduction up to $2,000 for a single individual or $4,000 for a married couple.
Abalos says parents definitely do not want to miss a credit: "A tax credit is so much better than a tax deduction — it reduces your tax bill dollar for dollar. So missing one is even more painful than missing a deduction that simply reduces the amount of income subject to tax."
This credit is up to $2,500 per student for payment of qualified education expenses (which includes tuition and fees, books, supplies and equipment) for a taxpayer, spouse, or dependent.
The student must be enrolled at least half-time in a degree program. Parents can shift the credit to student by not claiming the student as a dependent. The credit is for the first four years of undergraduate.
It is easy to overlook the child and dependent care credit if you pay your child care bills through a reimbursement account at work. Until a few years ago, the child care credit applied to no more than $4,800 of qualifying expenses ($2,400 per child maximum of two). The law allows you to run up to $5,000 of such expenses through a tax-favored reimbursement account at work.
Now, up to $6,000 can qualify for the credit ($3,000 per child maximum of two), but the old $5,000 limit still applies to reimbursement accounts. So if you run the maximum $5,000 through a plan at work but spend more for work-related child care, you can claim the credit on up to an extra $1,000. That would reduce your tax bill by at least $200.
5. 'Single'? Or 'Head of Household'?
This can be a tricky one for parents who are divorced or unmarried and have children. They are single. And they are head of household, right?
But the box moms and dads check can lead to a bigger tax bill, Abalos said.
Filers want to check head of household if they qualify, she said.
A taxpayer is eligible for head of household filing status if they meet the following:
- is unmarried at the end of the year
- paid more than half the cost of keeping up their home
- the home was the principal residence for more than half the year of taxpayer's qualifying child
- taxpayer is a U.S. citizen or resident during the entire year
