Download or read book Soul of the Grid written by California Independent System Operator and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-09-30 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I felt like we had failed," said director of grid operations Jim Detmers in a pained voice. "In my mind, I pictured people stranded in elevators. I pictured people stranded in stores and checkout lines. All I could think of was the Inconvenience, and I'm sitting here thinking thinking, what rock did we not look under to maybe prevent this?" As the focal point of an unprecedented power crisis that has tarnished the Golden State, the California Independent System Operator (California ISO) carries the mixed burden of being a disaster survivor. Established to maintain electrical system reliability for the world's fifth-largest economy, California ISO has been both praised and vilified for its efforts amidst the chaos of blackouts, price volatility, political backlash, and market manipulations by Enron and other ruthless competitors. This book chronicles how the California ISO came to be and what happened during its first five years. More importantly, though, this is the story of the people who make up California ISO and give it an identifiable character and culture-its soul. The result is a very human drama that is otherwise unavailable from the regulatory record or media accounts of California's unparalleled power emergency.
Download or read book The Grid written by Julie A Cohn and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the grid, the world's largest interconnected power machine that is North America's electricity infrastructure. The North American power grid has been called the world's largest machine. The grid connects nearly every living soul on the continent; Americans rely utterly on the miracle of electrification. In this book, Julie Cohn tells the history of the grid, from early linkages in the 1890s through the grid's maturity as a networked infrastructure in the 1980s. She focuses on the strategies and technologies used to control power on the grid—in fact made up of four major networks of interconnected power systems—paying particular attention to the work of engineers and system operators who handled the everyday operations. To do so, she consulted sources that range from the pages of historical trade journals to corporate archives to the papers of her father, Nathan Cohn, who worked in the industry from 1927 to 1989—roughly the period of key power control innovations across North America. Cohn investigates major challenges and major breakthroughs but also the hidden aspects of our electricity infrastructure, both technical and human. She describes the origins of the grid and the growth of interconnection; emerging control issues, including difficulties in matching generation and demand on linked systems; collaboration and competition against the backdrop of economic depression and government infrastructure investment; the effects of World War II on electrification; postwar plans for a coast-to-coast grid; the northeast blackout of 1965 and the East-West closure of 1967; and renewed efforts at achieving stability and reliability after those two events.

Book excerpt: What if there are signals all around you trying to get your attention? What if these signals are there to support your deepest dreams for who you can be and what you can create in this world? What if life itself is quite simple and we humans make it burdensome, heavy, and a struggle by our choices? And what if the way we do this is counterintuitive? What if living in a state of joy is accessible to all who seek and choose it? And what if we are prompted throughout our lives to develop the ability to recognize how to live into the highest and best we can be with joy and grace? And what if the reason we don't is counterintuitive? What is possible for each of us individually and for societies, as a whole, when we intuitively follow inner wisdom over our fears and ego identities? Just maybe we will live into our dreams, our life's work, and the highest and best of who we are here to be. The path presents itself. Do you know how to recognize the signals? Do you want to?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shift in consciousness has occurred on the planet during the past twenty-five years, marking a new moment in the evolution of humanity's consciousness concerning our relationship to Earth and to the cosmos. We now accept that human beings are interacting with a living planet, and we understand that this living planet has an energetic relationship to the galaxy. We have also come to understand that the entire biological and energy system of this beautiful planet we live on is totally dependent on how humans treat the planet, the environment, and other life forms on Earth. Biorelativity describes the ability of human beings to telepathically communicate with the spirit of the Earth. The goal of such communication is to influence the outcome of natural Earth events such as storms, volcanoes, and earthquakes. This book is a collection of channeled lectures through Arcturian, Native American, and other mystical guides, transmitted in sessions from 2009 through early 2011, that describe

Download or read book Opening Our Spiritual Eyes written by Qala Sri'ama Phoenix and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-02-22 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karma is generally understood as personal, and clearing karma is often considered an individual effort, with individual rewards. In Opening Our Spiritual Eyes, spiritual teacher Sri’ama Qala Phoenix shows how karmic clearing can also be used in collective healing. Karma is shared within families and communities, and clearing karma releases it from the etheric body of our children and future generations. The book was inspired by the ongoing “Celestial Project,” a four-year global endeavor of Australia’s Divine University that began in 2009. The project involves people gathering worldwide on specific dates to focus on the karmic cleaning of the etheric body of a major city. Opening Our Spiritual Eyes draws on the author’s experiences of meeting the Enlightened Masters, those wise spirit guides who, through her, present new understandings of the collective karma held within the world’s primary cities and our etheric bodies—and how to free ourselves, our families, and our world from it with grace. Revealing what Sri’ama Qala Phoenix calls “the true nature of the divine plan for humanity and our Earth,” the book shares essential keys for how we can become empowered to live in alignment with our divine purpose.

His appearance forces her out of her isolated life into an investigation that leads to the vampire Blood Master of Nashville. Nell has a team—and a mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If you lack the courage to leap into the unknown, you'll never experience the joy of soaring free." The North Tower has fallen and the rebellion against the despotic Lords of Mydren is growing. Conlan wears the Royal Crown and, having proclaimed his ancestral entitlement to the throne as rightful King of Mydren, leads his army to destroy the East Tower. Yet the magical power of the Five is not the unstoppable strength it once seemed. One of their number is dying, their energy has become unbalanced and the elements themselves are stirring, pushing the Avatars into a dangerous gambit. Amelia is happy being a wife and mother, but her life is being torn apart by the man she loves, forcing her into a desperate mission to save him. She must travel the length of Mydren to find those who can aid him and convince them to help. Through internal struggles and external battles, Amelia will be ruthlessly tested. Will these trials forge her resolve into a weapon befitting an Avatar, or will she be crushed in body and soul? Can she find the belief and courage necessary to combat her own fears and protect those she loves? Her family needs her, and love is sacrifice, but is Amelia ready to surrender her entire being to the service of her King?
Download or read book The Aura written by Sarah A. Schweitzer and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-11-14 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life, in general, continually changes. The aura energy field of light which surrounds every living human body is also changing. Currently, the dense 3rd dimensional aura field of light is being replaced with a new 5th dimensional light frequency. As our planet continues to ascend and accept the 5th dimensional frequency and light within her aura field, many individuals seeking enlightenment will experience an energy shift as their personal aura also accepts the higher light. This shift allows the potential for transformational change to occur, not only to our global planet, but also in ones personal life. In transformation, old density threads are unwoven and are moved out of the dense aura energy field both at a global earth level, and also at the personal human level. This allows negative imprints, blocks, and emotional drama that were once stuck in density, access to the higher energy frequency. Although the potential to repeat old issues is ever present in any energy field, old imprints cannot anchor correctly in 5th dimensional light which lessens their importance as well as their ability to stabilize. Once old density issues are destabilized, they become easy to process, transition, and remove from the aura energy field. For many individuals, this can feel like heaven on earth. This book presents information that defines and explains the aura field of light that surrounds the human body. When working to transition the density of a 3rd dimensional energy aura into a 5th dimensional frequency of light, this information is necessary to know and understand. As energy shifts and transitions occur, insight is gained about blocks, issues, and negativity that have been present in density. This insight triggers transformational clearing within the aura allowing one to experience wellness and empowered living.

Download or read book Thriving on a City Grid written by Christina Dietz and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-09 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Thriving on a City Grid, Christina Dietz suggests that we can bring the relaxation, joy, and presence of our natural selves-as we would be in nature-into manmade urban settings. The contemporary world, which is driven by technology and mass consciousness, pressures us to move at an artificial pace. Sadly, this wreaks havoc on our minds and bodies. For restoration and flourishing, Dietz suggests a lifestyle downshift to a self-nurturing oasis or island-time mentality, where we eat more healthfully, cultivate stillness, increase our exposure to green spaces, and play freely. Part mindset guidance, part holistic and toxin-free lifestyle guidance, this is a book for a generation of people who desire to recreate the entire experience of urban dwelling as a haven for people of awakened minds.

Book excerpt: The Grid: Lessons from the Men of Grindr is a biographical, infotainment-themed exploration of the impacts that Grindr (a gay dating app) has had on a generation of queer people. Author Lex, Esq. is an attorney and LGBTQ+ blogger. In the book, he revisits three of his early Grindr relationships in order to extract lessons and understand how the gay men of dating apps had slowly ruined him. Far from dating tips, The Grid pulls from Lex's personal mistakes to critically examine gay dating themes, including: feeling jaded, mental abuse, loneliness, addiction to apps, competition, unequal effort between partners, instant gratification, internalized shame, coming out, catfishing, sexual guilt, sending nudes, sexual safety and more. The Grid pulls numerous lessons from these themes in an attempt to create a better informed and less soul-crushing gay dating experience. Lex, Esq. and his blogs can be followed @theproblemgays on Instagram and www.theproblemgays.com.
