The move to the new host was pretty bumpy because the old host had the IP blocked for malicious intent, or something... tea room is back up, not sure about the chatroom... and I think one of my posts got left behind.
  Whew!!
  Sorry for the downtime. I hope now there will be fewer error messages! 

juergen

yeah, sometimes people can't let go, even providers ;D

yesterday i looked at the provider's center for the preferences of my own ws, and found out, there was a checkmark choice for locking the ws for a move or set it free, hmm  ..so many choices  ;D

The difference that the change made, i realized at once, is that now i'm logged in(not locked in heehee) at once as a user.

It's true, that i felt a great loss while trying to sign in during downtime, a reminder how much this opportunity is appreciated :) :) :)

wish You All some 24/7/30/365/1 holy-days!

Thanks for your hard work, Mystress.  I can only imagine what a royal pain in the ass it's been.   Blessings on the new incarnation.

Mystress

  Yup, it has been, not done yet either as you can see from the empty chatroom area on the index page. The photo gallery is hosed also. So is the lineage healers wiki, which most of you cannot see.

  Mostly due to my folly in changing the username of the account. fiery became mystress and it all falls down. phhhht. Most of the fix is well over my head.


  I need webslaves...


  whoops,
must not enslave students! (smacks hand) bad Mystress! 
   I keep forgetting... lol.

  ah, technically gifted submissive devotees?
  A few handy volunteers?

  In the meantime I am on a steep learning curve with sony Vegas Pro 8 video editing software because my plan to hire a pro also fell down.   I am kicking my own ass, or Goddess is kicking mine, depending on how you look at it.  I'm getting energy overdose of FST vid shakti plus solstice and full moon tomorrow. Mmmm, sandpapered eyeballs.  Yesterday capturing tape 2 of 8 gave me barfing kriyas an hour later. Lots of them. Tape 1 gave me a terrible ache all down my left side that made me think of Marvin the Paranoid android. It came with nausea and dizziness.  This morning's work came with some acid stomach, and more muscle pain that makes me feel like an arthritic old lady.  Wheee. Thank you Goddess. Ow.

   Self Shaktipat via time travel is an odd experience. I think my energy must have gotten very muddy over the years for my own vids to whack me like that... but then again, the energy is not of the talking head woman, it is the Goddess coming through, outside of time.  "to each according to their need and ability to recieve but not more than they can handle" so I guess I needed an ass kicking... not for nothing do I warn y'all to pace yourself with the lesson vids! The ache around my liver is telling me to increase hydration and mainline some more flax before something shorts out. zzzzt. poof. ow. 

  Yippy Yule, everyone!

Helen

Congrats with the move! yep, part of the book thread got missing, but no big deal if we all had read it already. This video of yours sounds scary  :o  good luck with it!

And as for webslaves, could be right up my alley ;) I'm a programmer, doing a lot of PHP/MySQL stuff at work and for hobbies; also admining a SMF forum for my Wiccan group. But I know that a new user in the community might not be trusted with the maintenance yet ;) This week should be too busy anyway...

Happy New Year :)

Nothing wrong with this, Snow White had seven(with a dwarf ego) ..caught in Her web LOL;
Like Yourself, Freya and Others, She must have known about the Crystal, sent Her slaves to the 7 Mountains(Gaia unleashed) for crystals, necklaces, guess they were charming too.
She had their consens long before time...

I'm highly motivated but haven't made it far beyond css, gave priority to the occult.
(as for php, sql, perl and like suga, Helen i admire Ya, this is ...hot!)
Slowly as wool is gathered i've got a mind to start knitting as well; feminizing, maybe not men, but the world, feels also ...hot!


I warn y'all to pace yourself with the lesson vids!

Yeah always hard on the speed limit, i'm still giddy from that car drive in my dream.
Crawling for absolute Belles(i.e the northern and southern Ones, east and west are relative :)) i found this chop wood and carry water thing:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZt5Q-u4crc&feature=related

With Her Kind, i could imagine another slavery in the south, with another twist for the presence;
'd been a Nigga-confederist, without thought and hesitation, ok :) ;D

plenty days of Love :) :) :)

True, usually only grads work on FST because your spiritual process comes first. It is better to stick with one lesson per week and allow Goddess Her surprise parties.

   However, I have a lot of things on my plate besides FST.

   I need somebody to convert the design of Kundalini-teacher.com to a Website Baker CMS/CSS theme template, with subdirectory templates and the same folder structure(arrangement of chapters.)

     I have a lot of new content for the site and need it to be easier to update.  I don't want to have to edit the page list of every page in a folder and the sitemap each time I add another essay.   My days of painstaking hand coding are over.  I want a CMS to do it for me.  I think I'll paste the most of the essay content into the templates myself, as a lot of the essays there could use a polish and a spellcheck.

   I also need someone to convert the board on that site from Yabb to SMF.
   No timeline but soon enough. 

   I am sorry if my comments seemed unappreciate to the many who do and have volunteered...  Their job is not easy due to the vagaries of my wandering attention span that is doing too many things at once.

   Sometimes I get people started on a project, but when they have questions or want to report results they have to wait weeks for a reply because I am not in a space to respond.  I have shifted focus to something else and I cannot shift back easily or really rush my orbit.
   Some folks have found the laser of my hyperfocused attention to be a little uncomfortable when it turns on them, like an ant under a magnifying glass.  For me it works to set them up to do a job, answer initial questions and make sure they know what is wanted of them, let them get at it while I turn my attention to other things for a week or a month or three, until my orbit comes round again to hyperfocus on the progress of their task, and the ant is under the magnifying glass again.
  That is what you get, with an Dominant ADD Witch for a manager.   

  The Vids, btw are the ones you are watching, except full resolution and including raw footage that ended up on the cutting room floor, first time round.  We are working on updating the format from realplayer 1999! 

   Blessings!

This sounds all exciting, resonating and old faithful with me, like a music that wants to be "studied in", at the same time familiar and of a new kind as well; .. and of the  kind "be careful what you are wishing for", as well, ok.
But it seems a process, which is due to this time and cannot be ignored or scared off; Your orbits are modern Arthur's table round, a real monumental upgrade,  a real ADDition! I'm feeling it quite strongly.


  The Vids, btw are the ones you are watching, except full resolution and including raw footage that ended up on the cutting room floor, first time round.  We are working on updating the format from realplayer 1999! 

If i'm getting this right: You made the vids originally in VHS or something like this, and now that You want to change digitally from real to something else, maybe OggVorbis or whatever, You intend to make "nails with heads", and draw them newly from tape into full resolution, and btw include some of the material You originally omitted; and doing this work has some adverse muddy effects on You, pfff.

I'm just on a way to go into these fields, still i'm struggling a bit with the hardware(tv-card USB-driver(?), choice of a better soundcard etc.); this is kind of stuff i'm doing either well or not at all.
If You can delay it for about a month i could give You, technically, a confirmation; then, to choose from the raw footage on the cutting room floor, would again be another thing(Salem-sighs).

  The FST vids were originally recorded on mini-DV tapes, digital camera. I had thought the DVtapes were impossibly degraded due to some wierd colour effects, but it turns out the tapes are fine, it is just my old biz partner did not know how to correctly white balance his camera so everything white is shifted yellow-red - including my eyes and teeth.  Eeek.  It didn't show in the tiny low res realplayer, but will show in flash mpg.  He converted to realplayer before editing, so we have to go back to the raw and start over.  There are 8 tapes, they total about 10 hours of raw, about 6 hours went into FST. 

   Gustaf is my editing volunteer, and his wife Kimberly is helping with transcriptions and locating the original FST vids in the many hours of raw, which is completely unorganized. The lesson order is not the same as the order the vids were shot and there is no indication which clip was used where. 

  The new FST vids won't be full res either, it is impossible to stream DVD quality. They will be flash mpg, but 4x larger window.  Eventually the course will be available on DVD. 

I am impatient to get the videos redone so I think in the short term we will just replace the current clips ASAP, then have some space to reconsider the original editing choices and make use of some of what was previously discarded. 

  Watching them while capturing them kicked my ass... but nobody is supposed to watch an hour at a time!   Since I started capturing.. or, rather, when I started hurting and asked why:   I've had a song stuck in my head, Tragically Hip "Little bones" often mislabeled as "Happy hour."
    I get a message to pace myself...
 

  "I can cry, beg and whine
T'o every Rebel I find
Just to give me a line
I could use to describe

They'd say, "Baby eat this chicken slow
Its full of all them little bo-oooooones, little bones...
Full of all them little boo-ooones."

    Eat the chicken slow or choke on it, lol.  Love it when my DB serenades me with messages, and the Hip are brilliant so I'm enjoying the repetition.

The fact that the tapes *can* kick my ass really underlines how it is not my personal energy in the vids, it is Goddess moving through me.  Shaktipat via videotape. Pure Fire.
Baby, eat this chicken slow... :)

  X-mas blessings to all!
