"The Portal" is an experiential documentary created as part of a bold, global vision to shift humanity out of a state of crisis. Six ordinary people (and a robot) show how stillness and mindfulness can unlock personal change and shift the trajectory of our planet, providing hope to humankind as we embark on the next phase of evolution.

It brings to life the stories of six people who overcame great adversity using stillness and mindfulness, inspiring the audience to follow in their footsteps and realize the unique potential that all humans have to change our world – from the inside out.

Supported by insights from three of the world's foremost futurists – and a robot – the film unfolds as a beautiful, audio-visual spectacle that takes the viewer on their own mindfulness journey through the pain, joy and memory fragments of life.

Exploring a new way forward, this powerful film and book open hearts and minds to an exciting vision for humanity, transformed, inviting all 7 billion people to make an enlightened planet possible by entering "The Portal".

" 'The Portal' is a film about life. It's a journey through the ups and downs, the love and the sadness, the fragility and strength in each of us," said director Jacqui Fifer. "It's a cinematic love poem to every person who has shied away from, or stepped up to, the daily challenges that present themselves, and the defining moment in which, despite our past, we embrace the potential of our own evolution. It's a journey to discover our uniqueness as individuals and our role in the collective heartbeat of our planet. At times as surprising as our own future, we wanted this to be a film to inspire humankind into a new era."

"The Portal" will show at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Monday, Nov. 25 at 4 and 7 p.m. Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177.

State analyzing online marriage registration | News - ERR News

Posted: 27 Nov 2019 02:52 AM PST

Although the state is prepared to allow couples who want to register a marriage digitally, this requires a change in the law, so it is not known if and when digital marriage could become a reality, Geenius wrote.

Currently, the Marital Status Act says a couple must physically appear before a notary and physically sign the paper themselves.

An analysis should be completed by next spring and is currently being carried out by the Public Service Council and is led by the Department of Information Society Services Development of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications.  

Geenius quoted advisor at the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications Helena Lepp, who has been involved in the analysis, as saying all parties involved in marriage and the relevant ministries are ready to digitize it but there is no firm idea of how it will work yet.

While I applaud that all the major vendors seem to be focusing on more integrated advisor and investor experiences, far too many of them are solving to that by rushing to the same unrealistic spot. They all want to be your "portal" or your "one stop shop." What we need instead are industry standards for the exchange of complex data (like financial plans, proposals, and performance data) so that it isn't only easier to integrate different best-of-breed systems together, but it's easier for advisors to move with confidence betw

beyond the valley 2022 :: Article Creator All The Fun With None Of The Buzz, The Story Behind Montana's Only Non-alcoholic Bar Hold My Bar is a fascinating blend of contradictions. It's a bar that observes Dry January all year, serving zero-proof and non-alcoholic drinks. But it's not just any bar — it's a 1976 horse trailer transformed into a prohibition-era oasis.

Since February, Hold My Bar, Montana's first non-alcoholic bar, has been a hub of community activity. From its vintage horse trailer, uniquely named beverages like "The Witch Doctor" and "Magical Rose Margarita" are served al fresco, both in the Flathead Valley during weekday markets as well as at pop-up locations across the state.

sarasota music festival :: Article Creator Musicians Playing By Ear In Improvised Sarasota Music Festival Concerts Cellist Mike Block has warm memories of the two summers he spent studying and performing as a fellow at the Sarasota Music Festival in 2003 and 2004. "It was the combination of the music, the people and the weather. The Sarasota Music Festival was the only festival I ever returned to when I was student age," Block said. He's returning for the first time this summer as a faculty member who plans to shake things up and hopefully change how the participants – and audiences – think about and perform music. Block began exploring improvisation and non-Western music during his undergraduate years at Cleveland Institute of Music and while earning his graduate degree at Juilliard, and since then, "my professional direction has taken me very explicitly away from Western classical music.
