GPG (Gnu Privacy Guard) is a derivative of PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) and is the most popular method of encrypting email messages for others to view. Below is a short and sweet tutorial on using GPG. I just got into using this myself and it was annoying for me to figure out how to use it while staying secure and making sure things work properly. Once you know how to use it, it's incredibly easy. It's just that most tutorials I've found were lengthy, confusing, or didn't actually function as a tutorial.

This tutorial will help you configure Thunderbird to use GPG. There's a way to do this with Outlook 2013, but as the Outlook Privacy plugin is only for 32bit Outlook and I have a 64 bit version, then I can't set that up. It won't find the keys and sometimes the plugin will load slowly according to Outlook and it gets disabled. If you have 32 bit Outlook, you can try that way, but Thunderbird is a free product and this method works well for me.

TUTORIAL:

1.) Begin by following the instructions on the Enigmail Installation Guide and make the following changes while working with it. (See the next steps below) There are 3 pages to the installation and usage of the Enigmail product and it's dependencies. Be sure to click "Next" at the bottom of the page when you finish a page.

2.) You'll be installing the latest Thunderbird during the installation process, but the tutorial was targeting Thunderbird 2.0 and the link they have in the installation guide will point you to the proper version. (The newest version on the Mozilla site)

3.) While installing Enigmail, the install button mentioned on the bottom left of the add-ons window has now been removed. To install the XPI file, you'll need to click the gear icon in the upper right and click "Install."

4.) When configuring your keys, be sure to click the "Advanced" tab and then change it to RSA 4096. DSA is based on SHA1 or SHA512 and those can be cracked.

5.) You can use OpenPGP->Setup Wizard to choose your defaults for new messages. This can be run and re-run as many times as you'd like.

6.) Set your default encryption settings with OpenPGP->Default Composition Options->Signing/Encryption Options. This can be found on the menu when you compose a new message. (The menu for OpenPGP is different when you compose a message, from when you view it in the main window.) Keep in mind that you'll be asked if you want to use PGP/MIME as the default, but it's more practical not to. Not every client supports that and all it really does is encrypt everything as one instead of sending it all as separate encrypted parts.


HOW IT WORKS:

Just to make sure you know how the GPG system works, let me explain it.

1.) You acquire the recipient's public key through either a keyserver or an attachment from their email to you. If neither of you have a public key on a key server or you don't have access to their public key, just ask them to send you theirs and include an unencrypted copy of your public key on that email.

You add the attached public key they sent (or received via the keyserver by searching for their key ID) to your local keyring. Be VERY careful when searching by email address for the key. Email addresses can be forged in a public key, but the 40 bit (character) fingerprint is almost always different for the key. Keep in mind that only the last 8 bits are shown on the server which is a big reason for keyserver issues.) Know which one to grab. Key IDs can be manipulated. Take a look at this page on keyserver issues.

So, don't use keyservers unless you don't mind forgeries and mail interceptions. GPG is meant to secure your transmission, but keyservers open up your ability to decrypt anyone's intercepted message. By sending your key with the first message to the person you're talking to, the chances of having your email decrypted by a third party drops dramatically. This is because you need your private key to decrypt messages encrypted to your private key. So, if someone produces a forged public key and has a private key they used to decrypt it, then they will be able to decrypt the message and not the recipient.

2.) You send an encrypted (PGP) message that you've signed (using YOUR private key) to a person you haven't yet communicated with via email using THEIR public key. That message CANNOT contain an encrypted attached public key! The public key must be unencrypted or it can't be used. If you sent it in an email to the person already or you know they have your public key already, you don't have to send it again. It only needs to be sent one time.

3.) The message you just sent is encrypted with YOUR private key using THEIR public key which can be decrypted with THEIR private key.

4.) The recipient replies presumably with THEIR unencrypted public key attached and a message encrypted using THEIR private key. (Unless you already have their public key)

5.) You decrypt their message using your private key and reply to their message with your message and attachments fully encrypted by your private key for them to decrypt with the public key you sent them in your last message. The process continues without anymore key exchanges.


So, to sum things up:

Private keys: Sign messages, encrypt messages to the recipient's public key, and also decrypt messages that were encrypted to your public key.

Public keys: Are used during encryption to make a message only readable by the recipient who has the private key that created the public key.

I keep having to really dig for some information that a lot of people might find useful. So, whenever I have to dig for something that should be more obvious online, I'll post that information here. It'll just be random stuff that I find.

FedEx Office Integrator ID:
To get a FedEx Office Integrator ID, you need to go to the link below.

FedEx Office Integrator ID

On that page, look for the following text:

Save a copy of the Developer Test Key Enablement Request Form available (here).

You'll need to email them the form on that page in order to certify that you understand that the ID will become a production key and that you'll be billed for the services rendered.

UPDATE: Apparently that's not how to get it, but you do get access to printing live shipping labels that way. You'll eventually be asked for a Fed-Ex Ground Shipping Account Number in the cover letter when they reply to your request. Apparently it isn't needed, so just put "Unknown" or the like in there. I couldn't figure out where to get one, but I had the rest of the info including my account number that I found when I logged in and viewed my profile.

I heal people all the time and over the years I've improved my technique. Whenever I use this method, the person is almost guaranteed to be healed immensely. I want to teach it to you so you can heal yourself and others and stay safe in the process. So, here's the method I use.

1.) I bilocate next to them. As long as I have knowledge of someone, I can bilocate next to them. Basically, you just picture being in the room with the person and seeing them in a bed.

2.) I take note of how things look. I can see if there is anything off beat in the area and I can intuitively know what everything does or if its healthy to have it there. I can see if any negative beings are there as well.

3.) I then demand that all negative beings and energy leave the person as its not of their wish to have them around them or interacting with them in any way. As they are 4D beings, they are bound by the physics of 4D and they cannot impede your free will. That being said, when you demand that a being leaves you, they must leave you. Same thing as if the person is requesting healing, then they must leave as they do not want to be hurt by them either.

4.) I then look to see if there's an anomalous thing in the picture. These things stand out EASILY. Some things I've seen are, a rainbow orb connecting someone to their people, a black wrench that was QUITE insidious and could have easily hurt me if I didn't know what I was doing, etc.

5.) With the cause removed, I rotate the persons chakras by stroking their body up and down with energy and feeling them spin. They spin just like a roller track at an airport where you put your luggage on it and you slide it down the rollers. I speed up the stroking super fast and it creates an intense energy. I then bring in the source energy and Earth energy from the top and bottom of their body and infuse them with it. This creates a golden egg of light. This cleans them out and makes them feel intensely positive.

Helpful advice to keep you safe:

1.) Make sure that you do not interact with the scene with YOUR energy. You want to picture things happening in a state of disconnect. Your energy should never touch any part of the scene. Just like if you're picturing someone else doing something in your mind, you can picture things happening in the scene. Its a separate reality and in a state of quarantine. REMEMBER THAT. This is a SEPARATE reality, but it can cross over to YOUR reality or the other person's reality. So, be careful and operate in observer mode, but with the ability to make things happen.

2.) If you feel that something is too dangerous to handle on your own, let me know and I'll help out. As you improve your skills, you'll be able to handle more dangerous stuff on your own, but the key is to stay safe. If you get injured, someone will have to help you as well as them. It doesn't help anyone if you're injured. If I feel its too dangerous for me, I'll try to get other advanced healers to help me work on this with me and I'll picture them in the same room as I am in so we can work through it together.

3.) Before attempting your first healing, be very sure you're comfortable working with energy. Manifest that you're holding a small amount of negativity in your energy field and that its trying to attach itself to you. Keep it away from you at all costs and when you're done playing with that energy, you can transmute it into positive energy. See how close you can get it to you before you can't push it away anymore. I just tried it and I can get it up to an inch away from me before it attaches itself to me and I have to dig it out of me. With it being a small amount of negative energy, its not a problem. Just be sure you can handle one step before you try running upstairs. You don't want to wind up in a minefield and critically injured.

4.) There ARE ethric machines and other inventions the dark ones make! Be aware of this! They will have a distinct look to them that seems off beat, but even the ones that look like an ordinary item like a wrench, can cause quite a massive amount of problems for you if you don't know how to handle them. Don't take on something stronger than you are at the current time. I help everyone for free and I can help you if you are in a bind. I'm on the computer 95% of my life and I check my email every 15 minutes or so usually. I'm VERY easy to contact. I don't want you to get hurt.

5.) Remember that if you ever feel like you're threatened, you can always disconnect the transmission. DO NOT OPEN YOUR EYES TO STOP IT! If you open your eyes, you aren't guaranteeing that its disconnected from you. Its just like when someone is in front of you holding a knife and you close your eyes. You didn't stop the person with the knife, you simply closed your eyes to it. So, when you open your eyes during a transmission, it doesn't stop the transmission, it simply hides it from you. You'll want to practice creating a safe room reality and disconnecting from it as well. When you can do that safely, you can always work with that disconnect during your sessions in case something goes wrong.

To clear your chakras, you should meditate and go through the things that are causing you stress and clear the stressors away. When you can quiet your mind, then you can focus on each chakra starting with your root chakra and making your way up by healing each chakra. Feel the energy in them flowing and you'll heal them. As long as you fix the stressors and you make yourself free, then when you clear your chakras, the energy will stay clear and flowing.

Your chakras are energy nodes that connect your physical, ethric, spiritual, and other bodies together and your auric field is the electro-magnetic energy produced by your ethric body. The healing starts with your ethric body and ends with the physical. Dis-ease (disease) also manifests this way. Just as with the two slit scientific experiment, you can only allow dis-ease to enter your body if you will it to be so. Your pours are the slits, and the once celled disease, is the atom going through the slit. Its the same thing. So, in clearing your chakras, you need to clear the dis-ease.

Hey, I found out how to make an all natural makeup for everything you need black for. The makeup tutorial below shows you how to make kohl/kajal and is in fact how the ancient Egyptians and modern day Indians (people from India) make their makeup. Its so popular and stunning that many runway models use it and its all natural and good for you.

Just a couple things before I give you the steps to make it. The first thing you should know is kohl is where you use this to put it on as usual eyeliner around your eyelashes. Kajal is where you put it on the inner part of your eyelids between your eyelashes and your eyeball. Kajal is VERY healthy and it will pull any toxins out of your eye area as will kohl. However, when you put it on for the first few times, you'll go misty eyed for a bit because the toxins are being pulled out of your eye area. This is a good thing and will go away after a few uses, as all toxins will be removed and it will go into a state of protecting your eyes from any new toxins coming in as well. This is just one of the reasons it was prized amongst kings.

OK, so here's how I make kohl/kajal.

Items needed.
1.) Coconut oil (or other substitute)
2.) Almonds
3.) Ceramic/metal bowl (Not plastic since you'll be dropping hot ash into it.)
4.) A spoon (A metal spoon you eat with will work.)
5.) A jar to put your finished product into
6.) Your applicator of choice (Wash any previously used applicators so you aren't tainting your all natural makeup.)


1.) Buy a package of all natural almonds. Mine were Value Time brand and they were sliced. You can use whole almonds or chopped or whatever works for you, but make sure they are not salted or Heaven forbid Jalapeno flavoured. lol

2.) Buy a jar of all natural coconut oil. Coconut oil is used widely as a way to remove toxins from your skin and its very healthy for your skin in many ways. It'll even help your skin to stay soft. You can cook with it, use it for sex lubricant, use it in makeup, use it by itself as a mouthwash, and more. Those are the things I do with it at least. Its a very healthy product and it even ads to the almonds' ability to remove toxins from your skin. If you don't want to use coconut oil, then you can use any other edible oils. It's used to help make the makeup more useable.

3.) Now that we have our ingredients, you'll want to get out a pot or a frying pan and put a handful of almonds in it. As a rule of thumb, I'd say the amount of almonds used will yield about 1/3 of the size in product. So if you put in 3 whole almonds, expect to get about 1 almond sized amount of finished product. This is an estimate from what I noticed when I made mine.

4.) Turn the burner on high and wait until the almonds turn black. This will create a billow of black smoke and might stain your pot or pan with almond oil. I don't have a scrubby, but a washcloth wouldn't get it out of mine. This is burning food, so its not going to smell pretty and your house will be full of smoke for a bit. Its worth it in the end. You can also torch the almonds using a pair of pliers and a lighter if you'd rather, but it takes longer and they don't get thoroughly burnt easily. You can also try baking them in the oven. I'm not sure, but it might keep the smoke down. This should take 5 minutes or less on the burner. You should watch it the first time.

Be sure to fill the pot/frying pan with warm water to cool it down so the pot/frying pan won't be ruined. You can use hot as well, but don't use cold because that could cause the pot to expand and the handle may fall off if its welded on. Hot water will cool it down the best since it'll be less of a drop in temperature than warm or cold.

5.) OK, now that we have burnt almonds, you'll want to put the almonds into the ceramic/metal bowl and go at it with a metal spoon. This takes the place of a mortal and pestle. You'll want to smash the almonds with the back of the spoon by pressing your fingers on the inside of the spoon. When you've smashed them, keep going and try spreading the almonds on the side of the bowl to help crush them thoroughly. You'll want to make sure it looks like a thick grease when you spread it before continuing to the next step.

6.) OK, now scoop the mixture into a pile and push it from the spoon with a butter knife. Open your jar of coconut oil. If the coconut oil looks more like coconut grease then you must be cold because the room is. Just kidding. If the oil is at a temperature lower than 70 degrees then the oil will turn thick like that, so you'll need to warm it up. DO NOT put it in the microwave. I don't have a microwave in my house because it turns your food and anything else you stick in it, radioactive on a very small level. Its DEFINITELY not good for your body in any way to ingest anything that has been in a microwave. You can put it in the pot that you burnt the almonds in, with warm water. Just make sure you can put your finger in the water before doing so and you can touch the pot. At this stage the thing is probably luke warm and you won't melt the plastic container of coconut oil or bust a glass jar of it. Wait a bit or hover it over a hot (turned on) burner on your stove for a bit, and you can have a little bit of oil that's warm enough to pour into the mixture.

When you have about 1-2 teaspoonfuls of oil, then pour that into the bowl. Use your spoon to mix the almonds with the oil and when you mix it it should look thick and course, but the oil should be blended in. When you stop stirring it in and let it sit for a second or two, it should look runny like thick oil. This is your finished product.

7.) Now pour the mixture into an empty small jar. (I used jar of glitter that I didn't need and poured out the glitter and washed it up.) You can help it into the jar with the butter knife if you'd like.

8.) Use your applicator of choice and put it on. If you're using one that came with other makeup you bought, then you should wash it out thoroughly. If you wipe it with toilet paper, it should come out clean. lol (Oh, how I love those few choice words.) If you want a way to apply things in general, you'll want to get a small makeup brush. They're the tiny ones you usually get from eyeshadow cases and whatnot. You can also use a paintbrush for watercolor or the like as well. Just make sure it has a fine tip to it so you can put it on easily. I'd imagine you can use one for your eyelashes as well since I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Enjoy and I hope this is useful to everyone. You'll save TONS of money now that you know how to make this for only like $3 in almonds and a long lasting jar of coconut oil for about $8.

The best way I've found to make it stay put is to dab it with toilet paper after its been applied. This soaks up the oil and extra makeup. You can also try powder of sorts, but I have yet to see what powder would work well and be all natural.
