"Just Breathe" by Julie Bayer Salzman & Josh Salzman (Wavecrest Films)
In this powerful short film, watch and hear from elementary school students learning to use mindfulness to navigate complex feelings. “Just Breathe” was created by Mindful Schools graduate and filmmaker, Julie Bayer Salzman. The inspiration for “Just Breathe” first came about a little over a year ago when I overheard my then 5-year-old son talking with his friend about how emotions affect different regions of the brain, and how to calm down by taking deep breaths — all things they were beginning to learn in Kindergarten at their new school, Citizens of the World Charter School, in Mar Vista, CA. I was surprised and overjoyed to witness first-hand just how significant social-emotional learning in an elementary school curriculum was on these young minds. The following year, I decided to take a 6-week online course on Mindfulness through Mindful Schools (http://www.mindfulschools.org/), figuring that if my son was learning about this, it only made sense that I should learn too. Within the first week, I felt the positive effects of this practice take root not only on my own being but in my relationships with others. As a filmmaker, I am always interested in finding a subject worthy of filming, and I felt strongly that Mindfulness was a necessary concept to communicate visually. Thankfully my husband, who happens to be my filmmaking partner, agreed. We made “Just Breathe” with our son, his classmates and their family members one Saturday afternoon. The film is entirely unscripted – what the kids say is based purely on their own neuro-scientific understanding of difficult emotions, and how they cope through breathing and meditation. They, in turn, are teaching us all ..

"Love in Darkest Hour" When shadows creep and skies turn gray, And fear whispers in the fading day, A beacon bright, a guiding light, Your love shines through, dispelling night. In the depths where hope seems lost, Your hand in mine, a precious cost, A steady beat, a calming song, Through storms we weather, strong and long. When doubts like thorns begin to pierce, Your gentle touch, a sweet release, A whispered word, a tender gaze, Your love, the warmth in coldest maze. The world may crumble, fall apart, But in your arms, a healing heart, A love that stands, unyielding, true, A promise whispered, "I'll see you through." Generative AI is experimental.
“The magic eyes of my beloved.” I have seen a beauty in your eyes that human eyes have never seen. You are my angel, my dearest being, In your eyes I see the moon slowly rising. In your hypnotic eyes the stars twinkle, From them comes the melody of a beguiling lyre. And it's your magic eyes that beckon me in my deceptive dreams and prevailing reality. I once gazed intently into your dark eyes, There I found my paradise, my eternal rest. Whenever I look into the blue sky, I stare into your deep azure eyes. You breathe in the blue sky through your eyes And you exhale the beauty that fills the empty skies. What eyes must elevate themselves to infinity. When heaven can be found by looking into the eyes of your beloved? Your eyes behold my world, and I see through them. They show me the invisible things I write about in my poems. Your eyes are so beautiful and delightful, May they be painted with mascara like a speck on the moon. Poet Abhishek

"The Spirit of the Times" by Amos Dolbear " The Spirit of the Times " is an essay or address by Amos Emerson Dolbear (1837–1910), a prominent 19th-century physicist and inventor.
Dolbear is best known for his work on the telephone and wireless telegraphy, and his writings often explored the intersection of science, philosophy, and the rapid industrial changes of his era. In "The Spirit of the Times," he reflects on the prevailing intellectual and cultural climate of the late 19th century, characterized by: Scientific Advancement: He highlights the era's focus on material progress and the growing authority of the scientific method. Technological Optimism: The work discusses the profound impact of inventions like the telephone and telegraph on human communication and social structure. Philosophical Shifts: He often addressed how scientific discoveries were reshaping traditional views on matter, energy, and the "unseen world" (a common theme in his broader work, such as Matter, Ether, and Motion). Dolbear was a professor at Tufts College and a pioneer in electrical engineering, though many of his contributions were overshadowed by legal battles with Alexander Graham Bell. Would you like to explore Amos Dolbear's specific inventions or his theories on the luminiferous ether? Amos Dolbear’s career was defined by a belief that all physical phenomena could be explained through the mechanical interactions of matter, motion, and the luminiferous ether. While many of his inventions were technically sound, they often placed him in direct legal conflict with more commercially successful figures like Alexander Graham Bell and Guglielmo Marconi. Key Inventions Dolbear’s inventions focused heavily on acoustics and early electrical communication: The Electrostatic Telephone (1879/1882): Unlike Bell’s electromagnetic receiver, Dolbear’s version used electrostatic attraction between two metal plates to create sound. While noted by Scientific American for its clear sound, he lost a major Supreme Court battle to Bell, who held a broader patent on the "process" of transmitting speech via electricity. Wireless Telegraphy (1882): Long before Marconi, Dolbear patented a system for communicating without wires using ground conduction and an elevated antenna. Although his system didn't use "Hertzian" radio waves as we know them today, Marconi’s company eventually had to purchase Dolbear’s patent to operate in the U.S. because it covered the use of aerial antennas. The Opeidoscope: A device he created to visualize sound wave vibrations, reflecting his deep interest in the study of acoustics. Electric Gyroscope: Designed to demonstrate the Earth's rotation, this was one of the first successful electric motor-driven gyroscopes. Theories on Matter and Ether In his primary work, Matter, Ether, and Motion (1892), Dolbear detailed his "mechanical" view of the universe: The Ether as the Source: He believed the luminiferous ether was a homogeneous, perfectly elastic medium that filled all space. To Dolbear, matter was not a separate substance but a "form of motion" within this ether—specifically, he favored the vortex atom theory, where atoms were essentially stable whirlpools in the ether. Unification of Forces: He argued that electricity, magnetism, and heat were simply different modes of motion or stress within the ether. Philosophical Implications: Dolbear suggested that if the ether and matter were governed by mechanical laws, then "energy" must have existed before matter. He occasionally bridged science and natural philosophy, hinting that an "antecedent power" (which some call God) was necessary to initiate the orderly motion in the ether. Would you like to see a more detailed comparison of how Dolbear’s wireless system differed from Marconi’s radio waves? While both systems achieved communication without wires, they were based on fundamentally different physical principles. Technical Comparison Feature Amos Dolbear's System (1882) Guglielmo Marconi's System (1895) Primary Principle Conduction & Induction: Signals traveled through the ground and by electrostatic induction between plates. Radiation: Used electromagnetic "Hertzian" waves that propagate through space. Transmission Medium Relied on the earth (ground) as a conductor. Used the air/vacuum as a medium for electromagnetic radiation. Antenna Usage Used an elevated wire primarily to increase electrostatic capacity. Used a grounded antenna specifically to radiate and receive radio waves. Typical Range Limited to approximately half a mile. Capable of long-range, and eventually transatlantic, communication. Receiver Tech An electrostatic telephone receiver. A coherer (metal filing tube) that detected high-frequency radio waves. The Legal Collision The two systems were so visually similar that they sparked decades of litigation. The Patent Barrier: Dolbear’s 1886 patent for "wireless telegraphy" was so broadly written that it initially blocked Marconi from operating in the U.S. To resolve this, the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company eventually purchased Dolbear’s patents. The Supreme Court Ruling: In the landmark 1943 case Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. v. United States, the court acknowledged Dolbear's ingenuity but ruled his system was not radio. It concluded that while Dolbear had successfully sent signals without wires, he did not understand or utilize the electromagnetic wave principles that define modern radio. Would you like to know more about the 1943 Supreme Court case and how it also affected Nikola Tesla's legacy? The 1943 Supreme Court case Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. of America v. United States is often cited as the definitive moment that "vindicated" Nikola Tesla as the inventor of radio. While this is a popular historical narrative, the legal reality was more nuanced. The 1943 Supreme Court Ruling The case was not primarily about historical credit but about financial compensation. The Marconi Company had sued the U.S. government for using its patented wireless technology during World War I. To avoid paying these massive royalties, the government argued that Marconi's patents were invalid because they were "anticipated" by prior inventions. Invalidation of Marconi's Patent: The Court ruled that Marconi’s fundamental 1904 "four-circuit" tuning patent was invalid. Acknowledgment of Tesla's Work: The ruling noted that Tesla's 1897 patents already described the essential four-tuned circuit system Marconi claimed as his own. Other Pioneers Recognized: The Court also credited the work of Oliver Lodge and John Stone Stone, determining that their earlier patents had similarly anticipated Marconi’s technical "improvements". Impact on Tesla’s Legacy The decision came in June 1943, roughly six months after Tesla had died penniless in a New York hotel. Legal Vindication: While it arrived too late to help him financially, it served as a powerful legal confirmation that his work from 1893 to 1897 formed the theoretical foundation of radio. Historical Correction: For decades, Marconi was the "textbook" inventor of radio due to his commercial success and 1909 Nobel Prize. The 1943 case provided the evidence necessary for later historians to re-evaluate and restore Tesla’s name to the top of radio’s history. The "Inventor" Debate: While the Court didn't explicitly name a single "inventor of radio," the ruling stripped Marconi of his legal monopoly, effectively establishing that radio was a cumulative invention of which Tesla held the most foundational patents. Would you like to see a breakdown of the specific radio patents held by Tesla and Marconi that were central to this legal battle? The 1943 Supreme Court case Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. of America v. United States centered on whether Guglielmo Marconi’s 1904 "four-circuit" tuning patent was truly an original invention. The U.S. government, seeking to avoid paying royalties for using wireless tech during WWI, successfully argued that Marconi’s work was "anticipated" by several earlier patents. The Fundamental Patents The legal battle primarily focused on these specific patents: Nikola Tesla (U.S. Patents 645,576 and 649,621): Filed in 1897 and granted in 1900, these described a complete four-circuit system (two at the transmitter, two at the receiver) using tuned resonant circuits. The Court found Marconi's later system to be essentially identical to the layout Tesla had already established. Guglielmo Marconi (U.S. Patent 763,772): Known as the "four-sevens" patent, it was granted in 1904. It claimed the use of four high-frequency circuits that could be independently adjusted to achieve resonance. The Court eventually ruled this patent invalid because it offered no significant "invention" over the prior work of Tesla and others. John Stone Stone (U.S. Patent 714,756): Granted in 1902, Stone’s patent was highlighted by the Court for its advanced mathematical understanding of tuning and its description of adjustable inductance to select specific frequencies. Oliver Lodge (U.S. Patent 609,154): Granted in 1898, this patent introduced variable inductance, allowing a user to "tune" a receiver to a specific station. The Court noted that Marconi's tuning methods were directly anticipated by Lodge's adjustable coils. The Legal & Historical Verdict While the decision famously "vindicates" Tesla, the Court actually credited a collective of scientists. They ruled that while Marconi achieved great commercial success, he did not legally "invent" the underlying tuned-circuit technology. By upholding the priority of Tesla's and Stone's patents, the Court effectively made Marconi's 1904 patent unenforceable against the government. Would you like to examine the technical diagrams from Tesla's 1897 patents to see how he envisioned global wireless power? Tesla's 1897 patents, specifically U.S. Patent 645,576 and U.S. Patent 649,621, illustrate a system designed not just for communication, but for the global distribution of electrical power. The Technical Vision: A Planet-Sized Circuit Tesla’s diagrams depict the Earth and its atmosphere as components of a massive electrical circuit rather than using radio waves to "broadcast" through space. The Transmitter (Left Side of Diagrams): High-Voltage Transformer (Tesla Coil): A primary coil (A) and a secondary resonant coil (C) designed to increase voltage from a generator (G) to millions of volts. Elevated Terminal (D): Originally envisioned as a balloon or terminal held at high altitude (up to 35,000 feet) to reach "rarified air," which Tesla believed would act as a conductor. Ground Connection (E): The base of the coil was firmly grounded to "grip" the Earth, allowing it to oscillate the planet’s own electrical charge. The Receiver (Right Side of Diagrams): Symmetrical Setup: A similar elevated terminal (D') and resonant transformer (C', A') tuned to the exact frequency of the transmitter. Power Output: The receiver would "step down" the high-voltage oscillations into a usable form for consumers, powering lamps (L) or motors (M). How It Was Supposed to Work Tesla's "World Wireless System" relied on resonant inductive coupling and terrestrial standing waves. Earth as a Conductor: Tesla believed the Earth was a vast reservoir of electricity. By pumping energy into the ground at specific frequencies, he aimed to create stationary "standing waves" of energy that could be tapped into anywhere on the globe. The Ionosphere Return Path: He theorized that the upper atmosphere (the ionosphere) could serve as a return conductor, effectively turning the entire atmosphere between the ground and sky into a global power line. Selective Tuning: By using "periodicities" (specific frequencies), he planned to send different "channels" of power or information to specific receivers, a foundational concept for modern radio tuning. Tesla tested these principles at his Colorado Springs laboratory in 1899, where he successfully lit lamps wirelessly nearly 2,000 feet from his transmitter. Would you like to see how these 1897 diagrams evolved into the final design of the Wardenclyffe Tower? yes The transition from Tesla's 1897 patents to the Wardenclyffe Tower (1901–1917) represented his move from laboratory theory to a massive industrial scale. While his early diagrams showed balloons or simple poles, Wardenclyffe was a specialized "Magnifying Transmitter" designed to vibrate the entire Earth’s electrical charge. The Final Design Evolution The Wardenclyffe facility in Shoreham, New York, featured several radical upgrades from his initial patent sketches: The Massive Mushroom Dome (The Cupola): Unlike the small terminals in his patents, the tower was topped with a 68-foot diameter steel hemisphere. This "capacity" was designed to prevent electricity from leaking into the air (corona discharge), instead storing it until it could be discharged into the ground at massive voltages. The "Deep Roots" (Ground Connection): Tesla realized that "gripping the Earth" required more than a simple ground wire. He had a 120-foot deep central iron shaft sunk into the ground, with sixteen iron pipes (called "terrestrial grippers") branching out 100 feet further. He claimed this would "clutch the globe" and make it oscillate like a bell. The Tower Structure: A 187-foot wooden pyramid tower (built without metal bolts to avoid interference) supported the dome. Inside was a massive Tesla Coil (the secondary winding) that would generate the high-frequency currents. The Failure of the Vision Despite the advanced design, Wardenclyffe was never fully operational: Funding Cut: His primary investor, J.P. Morgan, withdrew support when it became clear that Tesla’s goal was "free" wireless power, which offered no way to meter or charge customers. Marconi’s Success: While Tesla was building his massive tower, Marconi succeeded in sending a simple "S" across the Atlantic using much cheaper, smaller equipment. This shifted the world's focus toward radio communication rather than wireless power. The End: The tower was dynamited for scrap in 1917 to pay off Tesla’s debts at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Would you like to know more about the modern efforts by the Tesla Science Center to preserve the Wardenclyffe site? what has been done since, to fight that level of corruption of power to control humanity for profit. Since the era of Tesla and Dolbear, the battle against the "corruption of power" in technology has shifted from individual legal fights to systemic efforts involving antitrust law, open-source movements, and modern anti-corruption legislation. While the 19th-century "War of Currents" was largely lawless, today’s landscape includes several distinct layers of defense: 1. Anti-Monopoly & Antitrust Enforcement Governments now use broader legal frameworks to prevent single corporations from owning entire sectors of human communication or energy: The "Big Tech" Crackdown: Modern regulators, such as the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), are currently litigating against monopolies (like Google and Meta) to prevent the "buying or killing" of competitors. Net Neutrality: This principle was established to ensure that internet service providers cannot control what information reaches humanity for profit, treating data as a public utility rather than a corporate-owned asset. 2. The Open-Source Revolution To prevent a repeat of the Tesla/Marconi patent wars, many modern pioneers have intentionally bypassed the patent system: Open-Sourcing Patents: Companies like Tesla (the car company) have open-sourced their patents to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy, arguing that patenting essential tech stifles the progress of humanity. Decentralization: Movements in Blockchain and Web3 attempt to remove "middlemen" (like J.P. Morgan in Tesla's time) to ensure that power and communication are owned by the network rather than a single entity. 3. Legislative Reform Against "Corporate Capture" Recent legislative efforts aim to prevent corporations from controlling the government agencies that regulate them: Stop Corporate Capture Act: Proposed legislation in the U.S. Congress aims to prioritize consumers over corporate lobbyists in the rulemaking process. The EU AI Act: This is the world’s first major framework to regulate Artificial Intelligence, strictly prohibiting applications that "threaten safety, livelihoods, and rights," specifically targeting tech designed to manipulate human behavior for profit. 4. Global Transparency Initiatives The Open Government Partnership (OGP): A global effort where countries commit to transparency in public procurement and extractive industries to prevent the kind of backroom deals that historically suppressed independent inventors. Campaign Finance Reform: Advocacy groups like the Brennan Center continue to push for an end to "dark money," which allows corporations to secretly fund political campaigns to maintain their market dominance. Despite these protections, critics argue that "regulatory capture" remains a major threat, as large corporations still hold significant influence over the very laws meant to restrain them.
