Short summary
Using the data from the Interstellar Medium (ISM) we propose a physical model for the spectrum of the magnetic irregularities in the ISM. With this model we discuss the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) spectrum, as well as the extragalactic Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), their chemical abundances and anisotropies. UHECRs may include a proton component from many radio galaxies integrated over vast distances, visible already below 3 EeV.
