Acknowledging the risk of food allergies at Hubbell
Who knew a trip to the emergency room three days after I moved in would be a roommate bonding experience?
I have severe food allergies to dairy, eggs and melons. I’ve carried an EpiPen auto-injector since birth in the event that I eat something I shouldn’t.
Like many others, my food allergies make a trip to Hubbell risky as I browse the stations looking for something safe to eat. A meal as basic as pasta with marinara sauce and a side salad turned out to be a recipe for disaster on Aug. 26.
I’ve lived with food allergies my whole life. I’ve been in the routine of bringing my own snacks to class, providing my own dessert at birthday parties and politely declining many edible rewards. Despite being a minor inconvenience, it’s always on my mind.
Before I put anything in my mouth, I have to check the ingredients for triggers of my allergies. Sometimes my constant vigilance still isn’t enough. This was the case when suspected cross contamination caused a comfort food to become a danger.
Not even an hour after leaving the dining hall, I was sticking myself with my EpiPen, and my roommates were calling my parents to inform them I was being transported via ambulance to the local emergency room.
According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, about 32 million Americans have food allergies. That’s 10 percent of adults in the United States.
When Hubbell serves close to 1,500 Drake community members every day, that means 150 people walk through the doors worried about what’s going into their meals.
Even more are avoiding ingredients for personal reasons. For me, it’s a “life choice” that I don’t want to visit the ER.
When I explain my inability to eat dairy to others, they assume I’m just lactose intolerant. It’s different for me. Upset stomach and vomiting versus throat closing and risk of death.
Now, this article isn’t an attack on Hubbell. The staff is doing great work to protect students and provide plenty of options.
Resident Drake dietician Samantha Matt informed me about steps Hubbell is taking to keep students safe and healthy.
“Hubbell has a dedicated allergen-free station called Simple Servings,” Matt said. “[It] is separate from other stations and has its own dedicated utensils, equipment, and storage areas in order to reduce risk of cross-contact with allergens.”
Matt also offered her assistance to students who are concerned about finding safe meals in the dining hall. She was very helpful with my own concerns my first year.
Based on my suggestion, the staff recently rearranged the salad bar so common allergies are on one side of the divider and vegetables the other. I hope they will continue to monitor other concerns such as making sure digital menus match what’s being served.
Hubbell diners can help out their fellow students by watching themselves at self-serve stations. Simple actions can prevent an emergency for their peers.
I’m asking for others to watch what they’re doing when they serve themselves in the dining hall. Put spoons back where you found them. Don’t mix vegetables at the salad bar. Clean up the table when you leave. Be kind to others.
Taking a little time out of your day to prevent cross-contamination could prevent someone’s time being spent in the emergency room.

New International Version
1 The vision(C) of Obadiah.
This is what the Sovereign Lord says about Edom(D)—
We have heard a message from the Lord:
An envoy(E) was sent to the nations to say,
“Rise, let us go against her for battle”(F)—
2 “See, I will make you small(G) among the nations;
you will be utterly despised.
3 The pride(H) of your heart has deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks[a](I)
and make your home on the heights,
you who say to yourself,
‘Who can bring me down to the ground?’(J)
4 Though you soar like the eagle
and make your nest(K) among the stars,
from there I will bring you down,”(L)
declares the Lord.(M)
5 “If thieves came to you,
if robbers in the night—
oh, what a disaster awaits you!—
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?(N)
6 But how Esau will be ransacked,
his hidden treasures pillaged!
- Obadiah 1:3 Or of Sela

Day 0126th September 2019 (Thu)
- Arrival in Amman – Transfer to Petra (L, D)
Note: Arrival in Amman must be before 09:00am. Upon your arrival at the Amman airport (at 9:00 am), a Rahhalah representative will meet you at the exit point. You will then be transferred to Petra (a drive of approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes), where you will embark on a signature walk through this famous, UNESCO Heritage site. Like Indiana Jones, you will pass by the Treasury, and you will continue following the footsteps of the Nabateans, exploring the architectural marvels created on the rocks, and the influences of various cultures like the Roman, the Egyptian, and the Islamic one. Snacks and water will be provided during this 5-hour trek. You will end in a traditional restaurant in Wadi Musa where you will have a taste of authentic Jordanian cuisine. After lunch, you will be transferred to the camp to relax. Overnight at a 4* hotel or camp.
Day 0227th September 2019 (Fri)
- Petra – Wadi Rum (B, L, D)
After an early breakfast, you will embark on a small hiking journey through Little Petra. Upon your return to the camp, you will check out and head with the cars to Wadi Rum (a drive of approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes). In Wadi Rum, you will be guided to a remote campsite where you will lunch on traditional BBQ prepared by a local Bedouin family that still follows the Bedouin lifestyle and will be keen to share their culture and traditions with you. After lunch, you will go on a 2-hour Jeep joyride that will offer you the opportunity to enjoy the scenic landscapes tucked deeply into the Rum desert, such as the Siq of Lawrence and other gorgeous rock formations. You will finish by watching the sunset at a picturesque location close to the campsite and, then, you will ride the Jeeps again to reach the camp where you will rest for the night. In the evening, you will taste the traditional Zarb – a delicious Bedouin treat – and you will sleep under the stars. Overnight at the camp.
Day 0328th September 2019 (Sat)
- Petra – Wadi Mujib – Dead Sea – Departure from Amman (B, L)
After an early morning wakeup call, you will ride the camels to enjoy the sunrise through the canyons of Wadi Rum. You will return to the camp for breakfast and, then, you will be transferred to Wadi Mujib (approx. a 3-hour drive). Well equipped with life-jackets, you will maneuver your way through the canyon to explore its spectacular sandstone formations. You will hike, swim, abseil, and slide through the gorge surrounded by a wild beauty that will take your breath away. Zig-zag ropes along the way will offer you support where needed, as the trail takes you through some mild rapids and pools of calm water. An experienced guide will always be there to help you until you reach a beautiful waterfall where you can swim, relax, and enjoy the scenery before retracing your steps to the starting point. At 1pm, you will reach the Dead Sea where you will have lunch before enjoying a natural spa in the famous Dead-Sea mud! With its dramatic landscape and the Dead Sea stretching at 400 m (1,312 ft) below sea level, the Jordan Rift Valley is one of the most spectacular places in the world and represents the lowest point on the face of the earth. The water of the Dead Sea is warm, soothing, and extremely salty – almost ten times saltier than the standard seawater – rich in chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium, bromine and several others. The mud of the Dead Sea looks like soft, dark-gray clay, and is filled with more than 35 different minerals. Coat yourself in this mud and bask in the sun for about an hour, until the mud dries and turns into a crust. Your beauty treatment is now almost complete: rinse off your mud mask in the Dead Sea (take care not to let the water or the mud into your eyes, nose, or mouth) and find out how soft your skin can feel. At 6pm you will head to the airport for your departure flight. Note: Departure flights must be after 9pm.

In view of the more frequent and more sophisticated attacks on the software supply chain, securing the software development lifecycle has become more important than ever. But that’s easier said than done. Manual security scans require far too many man-hours, are no longer fast enough and make scaling difficult. Automation is needed to continuously identify and remediate risks at every stage of software development.
With countless tools out there to choose from, complex processes and policies to take into consideration and need to get teams to get on the same page, what are the key elements that should be taken into account?
At the DevSecOps Leadership Forum in Paris, François-Eric Guyomarc’h explained the three pillars of operational security, as well as the challenges and best practices associated with them. François is the Director Architecture at HID Global, an American manufacturer of secure identity products.
François-Eric presenting at the Leadership Forum
Security at the core
As a provider for authentication, physical and logical access management, identity management and credentialing solutions, security is in his company’s DNA. This applies to their software, access control, and identity products such as smart cards, readers, printers and RFID tags, and to the variety of different applications HID Global develops for all these products. And as different as these applications are, so are their security requirements. Embedded, mobile, cloud - when it comes to security, one size does not fit all.
"It’s really interesting but at the same time a true challenge," François-Eric admits.
Not surprisingly, the security measures along HID Global’s SDLC are complex.
Application security foundation
A triad of key pillars that make application security at HID Global work - and last: policies, experts and tools.
A set of defined policies is needed to give direction. Without them, no one knows what needs to be done.
But policies are only helpful if there are people in place who can enforce them.
With increased focus on productivity, organizations are aiming to automate as much as possible. It is therefore crucial to select the right tools and to configure them with the right parameters to support and not overwhelm developers.
It quickly becomes evident that the equilibrium between them is as important as the pillars themselves. If one is missing, you won't get to the sweet spot of security being optimum. It’s also key to have integrations with existing tools and project management practices to streamline the processes.
Policies: Make them practical
From OWASP and PCI to CERT Secure Coding Standards, there are lots of standards to base policies on. Keep in mind that not all applications are equal and define security requirements for different applications, or ‘risk profiles’. For example, a cloud application with internet access poses more security risks than an access token that has no connectivity.
Making your policies practical is key. This means asking your developers to use multi-factor authentication for each of their pull or push requests, for example. While this might seem great from a security perspective, it’s not reasonable for a developer's day-to-day work. Overloading your team with precautions can become a productivity drag.
Lastly, leave sufficient time for implementation of new policies while continuing to reinforce while continuing to reinforce existing ones over time. Especially in face of the increasing number of policies, teams tend to forget.
Expertise: involve people early
Policies are just words -- you need people to implement them.
Instead of just dumping the final policies on them, involve developers and architects early in the definition process and build the expertise within the team. A great starting point is to make your architects security champions and have them apply the policies to their products. However, with these additional tasks, they can quickly become the bottleneck in the process.
You can avoid this congestion by offering your developers both generic security awareness and role-specific training (from cloud to mobile or pen tests) to bring additional security champions up to speed. Managers play a crucial role here approving time for training as well as budgets to enable their teams with tools and certifications.
Tools: configure them to match policies
Systems and tools can help automate the process and save time, but only if they are configured to match the policies and don’t bring too many false positives. Don’t underestimate the overall cost: free versions might give great initial insights, but quickly reach their limitations.
It’s also important to factor in costs for deployment, maintenance, and configuration and efforts needed for proper integration into your continuous delivery / continuous deployment (CI/CD) and with existing practices and tools. Integrating with JIRA, for example, allows you to track security issues like any other bug and manage them as tasks. These integrations are key to get the benefits of automation, to increase transparency, and to push adoption.
It’s crucial to consider your choice of tools. It’s easy to overload a process with unnecessary checks and analyses, slowing innovation, and decreasing adoption by your teams who are unable to see the forest for the trees.
Bridge the gap between security and development
Security needs to be integrated not only from a tooling, but also from a project management perspective. Involving development teams and security champions from the very beginning in the policy definition process will help bring the two perspectives together and create one list of requirements in one single log and one roadmap.
With this in mind, HID Global divides its software development into 3-month cycles. For each block, development and security teams are equally involved in defining the priorities and themes.
How to prove the business value?
Training, tools, costs of integrations - more often than not you might get snap reactions from business owners when they see the resources required to implement policies. Help them understand that security adds business value:
Describe security projects in dedicated whitepapers and emphasize why security is important from a customer and industry standpoint,
Leverage positive results from pen tests and tool analysis.

Quardle is a new strategy board game that has been taking the world by storm. Quardle game is a simple yet challenging game that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. In this blog post, we will provide a beginner’s guide to Quardle as well as some tips and tricks to help you master the game. Whether you’re a Quardle pro or just getting started, this guide will help you up your game. So what are you waiting for? Let’s get started!
What is Quardle?
Quardle is a strategy game that requires players to make sets of four blocks in order to score points. The Quardly game is played on a 4×4 grid, and each player has 16 pieces of their own color. The goal of the game is to be the first player to reach 100 points.
Players take turns placing their pieces on the grid. If a player creates a set of four blocks, they score points based on the number of blocks in the set. The more blocks in the set, the more points the player scores. If a player creates a set of four blocks with their own color, they score double points.
The Quardle game ends when one player reaches 100 points, or when there are no more moves left. If there are no more moves left and no one has reached 100 points, then the player with the most points wins.
The different types of Quardle games
There are a few different types of Quardle games: cooperative, competitive, and solo.
In cooperative Quardle games, players work together to complete the game’s objectives. These games typically require communication and coordination between players in order to be successful.
Competitive Quardle games pit players against each other in an attempt to be the first to complete the game’s objectives. These games tend to be fast-paced and often have a high degree of player interaction.
Solo Quardle games are played by a single player who attempts to complete the game’s objectives on their own. These games can be quite challenging, but also very rewarding when completed.
How to play Quardle Games
If you’re new to Quardle or just need a refresher on the rules, this section is for you. Quardle is played with a standard deck of 52 cards. The aim of the game is to remove all of the cards from your hand, either by playing them to the middle or by discarding them.
To start, each player is dealt 7 cards. The rest of the cards are placed face-down in the middle of the players, forming a draw pile. The top card of the draw pile is turned over to begin the discard pile.
On your turn, you must either play a card from your hand or take a card from the draw pile. Cards can only be played if they match the suit or rank of the top card on the discard pile. For example, if the top card on the discard pile is an Ace of Spades, you could play any Ace or any Spade. If you don’t have a matching card, you must take a card from the draw pile and end your turn.
Once you’ve played or discarded all of the cards in your hand, you’ve completed a ‘Quardle’. The first player to do so (or with the lowest score if nobody has) wins!
Tips for winning at Quardle
If you’re just starting out with Quardle, or are looking to up your game, check out these tips.
- Know the basics. Quardle games is a board game for two players. Each player has four pieces, called quads, which they can move around the board. The goal is to capture as many of the opponent’s quads as possible.
- Plan your moves ahead of time. It’s important to think ahead in Quardle, as each quad can only move in certain ways. Try to anticipate what your opponent will do, and plan accordingly.
- Pay attention to the other player’s movements. In Quardle, it’s not just about making your own moves; you also need to be aware of what your opponent is doing. Watch their quads carefully and try to anticipate their next move.
- Be aggressive when necessary. While it’s important to think ahead and plan your moves, sometimes you’ll need to be more aggressive in order to win. If you see an opportunity to capture one of your opponent’s quads, take it!
- Practice makes perfect! The best way to improve at Quardle (or any game) is simply by playing it as often as possible. So get out there and start playing!
Quardle strategy guide
Quardle is a strategy board game for two players. The game is played on a square board with a number of squares in each row and column. Each player has a set of four pieces, called quads, which they can use to capture other pieces or move around the board.
The aim of the quardle game is to capture as many of the other player’s pieces as possible or to block their opponent from making any more moves.
There are a few basic strategies that you can use to help you win at Quardle:
- Use your quads to capture as many of your opponent’s pieces as possible.
- Try to block your opponent’s pieces so they can’t make any more moves.

U.S. Naval Research Laboratory engineers launched PRAM, the Photovoltaic Radio-frequency Antenna Module, aboard an Air Force X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle on May 17 as part of a comprehensive investigation into prospective terrestrial use of solar energy captured in space.
“To our knowledge, this experiment is the first test in orbit of hardware designed specifically for solar power satellites, which could play a revolutionary role in our energy future,” said Paul Jaffe, PRAM principal investigator.
The 12-inch square tile module will test the ability to harvest power from its solar panel and transform the energy to a radio frequency microwave.
“PRAM converts sunlight for microwave power transmission. We could’ve also converted for optical power transmission,” said Chris Depuma, PRAM program manager. “Converting to optical might make more sense for lunar applications because there’s no atmosphere on the Moon. The disadvantage of optical is you could lose a lot of energy through clouds and atmosphere. “
The use of solar energy to operate satellites began at the start of the space age with another NRL spacecraft: Vanguard I, the first satellite to have solar cells. This current experiment focuses on the energy conversion process and resulting thermal performance. The hardware will provide researchers with temperature data, along with PRAM’s efficiency in energy production. This information will drive the design of future space solar prototypes.
Depending on the results, the team aims ultimately to build a fully-functional system on a dedicated spacecraft to test the transmission of energy back to Earth. The development of a space solar capability could potentially help provide energy to remote installations like forward operating bases and disaster response areas.
This flight experiment enables researchers to test the hardware in actual space conditions. Incoming sunlight travels through the Earth’s atmosphere, both filtering the spectrum and reducing its brightness. A space solar system traveling above the atmosphere would catch more energy from each of the sunlight’s color bands.
“There’s more blue in the spectrum in space, allowing you to add another layer to solar cells to take advantage of that,” Jaffe said. “This is one reason why the power per unit area of a solar panel in space is greater than on the ground.”
The National Security Space Office recommended in a 2007 feasibility study to investigate solar power satellite technology. NRL’s expertise with solar-powered satellites since the late 1950s and long history as a pioneer in space, including in the development of GPS, led researchers to further explore this emergent field.

“I’m not sure that I am considered a hero, but the work that I do is very important to our international presence in the world and so we are an important cog in the system. I am very much appreciative of the true heroes who are on the front lines of this virus, allowing me to continue to work from home and care for my family.”
We are currently living in an unprecedented time where workers, students, and people as a whole are uniquely impacted by COVID-19. How have you been directly impacted?
The pandemic has led to insecurity in our family in multiple ways. I have thankfully been working from home for many years and am able to continue working full time. My husband’s job has become less secure. He is the manager of a service team that has laid off 50% of the team. Should the shutdown of nonessential businesses continue, his job security becomes increasingly less sure. In the meantime, he is able to work from home, gratefully. We also have three children who were previously in some combination of school and childcare contexts. We have lost access to all of that support while trying to continue working two full time jobs. Our children, who are used to a lot of social interaction, have struggled with being cooped up in the house. We are also in the process of selling a home and caring for a family member battling serious illness – all of this has been complicated by the pandemic.
In regards to the current administration’s handling of the pandemic, what are your thoughts on their management of COVID-19?
I think that there are many very smart, intelligent people working within the administration. I think that Dr. Fauci and his team are an incredible asset to our nation in this time. But I think that the administrations inability to develop a cohesive message, agree on basic facts, and present a united front is damaging to our country and harms the ability for us to really get a solid handle on this pandemic. I also believe that there are people who need to take a stand for our nation who fail to do so and others who are more concerned for their own interests and reputation who put us all in dangerous positions.
Describe for me the work adjustments that your company made during the pandemic? What are some personal work adjustments that you have made?
Thankfully, my company has been equipped for remote work for many years so we hardly skipped a beat when the pandemic hit. However, all of us have to be increasing flexible as our schedules have needed to less rigid to accommodate individuals who are caring for children while working. Our management has been very flexible and have allowed employees to complete 80 hours of work at any time (day, night, and weekends) within the two-week pay period, allowing us to have workdays that are more flexible.
What do you think about the idea of people viewing you as a “hero” for working the frontlines during a pandemic? Would you agree or disagree with that?
I’m not sure that I am considered a hero, but the work that I do is very important to our international presence in the world and so we are an important cog in the system. I am very much appreciative of the true heroes who are on the front lines of this virus, allowing me to continue to work from home and care for my family.
What do you think this pandemic has revealed about the value we place on other job positions versus the one you have?
I really hope that this situations leads to a greater valuing of our essential workers and an expanded understanding of who those individuals are. Our essential employees of every kind should be much better supported and protected. There is now no denying the essential nature of their roles and I hope that changes are made moving forward to reflect that collective awareness.
How do you think your company/public ought to view workers, such as yourself, moving forward?
I am fortunate that my company places a lot of trust and value on its employees. They have trusted us to continue to show up as our best selves at work while also giving us the flexibility to do the same for our families. I hope that other companies will learn to do the same.
Explain for me how you view yourself, role, and impact as a worker during this pandemic?
While I am not on the front lines, I do recognize that I play an important role in the overall big picture and I want to do my best where I am while also being a good citizen.

Toyota automobile owners have become used to a certain level of best-in-class value when driving their Solara around town. When your Toyota Solara was born, it was destined for a driver who values driver satisfaction in their automobile. Auto enthusiasts know that long-lasting service is built into each Toyota, and understand that only the highest quality repair Solara parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. Your Toyota dealership isn't the only place to find genuine or original equipment quality replacement parts for your Solara.
Without the timed ignition systems in our internal combustion engines, there would be no way to generate enough power for efficient operation. One long-lasting component in your engine that will not last forever is your ignition coil. Whether you have mechanically timed ignition that uses a distributor or electronic ignition that uses the engine control module, your Toyota Solara could have one or many ignition coils. But no matter how many ignition coils you have, it will eventually not work anymore. If just one Toyota Solara ignition coil fails, then your timing will grow more irregular, and your engine won't put out as much horsepower because it won't be firing on all cylinders.
Don't let a Ignition Coil repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the best repair parts. When your Toyota requires a new replacement Ignition Coil, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. All the Toyota Solara Ignition Coil parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999. Choose your year below to refine your search.

Das klingt dann ein bisschen wie Shoegazer a la Lush ohne Feedbacks. Bedroom-Dream-Pop mit einer zurückgelehnten Haltung mit Melodien, die an Mazzy Star erinnern und mit einem ähnlichen Gestus wie Beach House aufwarten. Schrammelige Akustikgitarren, Synthieteppiche, Flächen aus Backgroundgesang und wunderschöne Reverbs. Cineastischer Indie-Pop, der von der harmonischen Einheit von Nouvion´s Stimme und dem sepiafarbenen Fluss der Instrumente lebt. Music to get lost.
The very name of the album gives a hint at what Memoryhouse are trying to achieve: the slideshow effect is a cinematic term used to describe the technique of giving movement to still images, by panning and zooming. This is dream-pop. This is memory-pop.The album opens with a vocal repetition, an ahhhhh ahhhhh drawing us into ourselves, into the mind, before the music and lyrics become clearer memento motifs. The vocals are crisp and clear, intonated like poetry weaving webs of remembrance; strands linking with forgotten pasts through paths not often trodden. The paths that are opened up by Freudian dream motifs.But, as Nouvion sings, it's not enough to live your past through old photographs. And Memoryhouse are intelligent enough to know that the past we remember is not necessarily the past that happened. They create music of the hinterlands and borders, the place between dream and reality, where a lush vocal and a jangling guitar pulses away at the cerebral cortex. Yet this is a voice and music with deep pop sensibilities. It is a sound reminiscent of Euro-Pop, tinged with the neo-psychedelia of Mazzy Star.There are some beautiful songs on this album ('Walk With Me', 'Punctum', 'Heirloom' and 'Old Haunts' are stand outs) but the danger with this kind of dreamscape music is that too many songs can dull the senses, just as too much smell or taste removes the effect of memory aid. Memoryhouse manage to just keep enough interest and variety over the whole recording to make this a most enjoyable experience that is best taken in one go.The Slideshow Effect isn't going to make you change the world, but it may just make you look deep into yourself and examine your past: and don't all great changes start from first changing yourself?

I know everyone has their version of “in …. we trust,” but I swear……MAD DECENT NEVER FAILS!!! You don’t have to take my subjective-view on it, just look at the consistent releases and better yet the diversity they bring; especially now with the sister crew Jeffrees.
At it once again are the D.C. killas >>> Gent & Jawns <<< w/ their new EP- FADED!!! Expect mid-tempo twerky beats, dutchy horns, and that club-friendly take the boys are ever so known for on the moombah game.
“Long-time friends Billy the Gent and Long Jawns, otherwise known as Gent & Jawns, first exploded onto the dance music scene with their Moombaton-infused tracks and remixes. In 2012, we released the Gent & Jawns classic, “Holler”, and fortunately for us the club smashing gentlemen are back with their follow-up EP Faded. Faded allows Gent & Jawns to cover new ground as they elevate their bass crazed sound to an even greater level of ‘turnt’. With tracks like “Fireball”, “Let Em Know”, “Turn Up,” and not to mention a massive remix from dubstep whiz Kill the Noise, Faded makes it just in time to soundtrack your wildest memories this summer.” – MD

The Path To Freedom: The How-Tos and Why-Nots, by Eric Watson
|The Id, Ego and Super Ego||Fear and Focus||Happiness|
|V.A.K||Relationship||How to think psychological|
|What is Repression?||Power thoughts||The Unconscious and Subconscious- What's the difference|
There was conditioning,
You have to accept the theory but the conditioning will still remain. I had to learn what conditioning meant and how to over come it as so with acceptance.I had a fire burning that kept me in studies and practice, using the whole bag of tricks constantly for about 6 to 7 hrs a day. I was consumed with practicing and believing everything I could get into my mind. It's almost as if for the last five months this is pretty much all I've thought about. I feel like I've been schooled for 150 days straight and the fire is still burning. The affirmations were constant,the hope was constant, all the lessons of thinking psycolgical when I began to hurt and then jorunaling about my days whether it was rage or victory.
The fear was always trying to rear its head and I would counter with the thought of victory or positive affirmations or focusing on another part of my body and of all things having the optimistic attitude continually. When I got mad I'd journal, I would hurt and journal. To say the least I mixed everything into the pot and used it all.
I was always looking for something new to add to my arsenal and in all of this I learnt that although I would say the affirmations. I found that I had to feel in my mind that they were actually happening before they were. Then within hours I would start to feel peace instead of just saying it. I would feel hope instead of just thinking it. This was my method.
I know we are different but at the same time I also know these techniques can be universal. I kept a burning desire to continue the course, and order my mind that it's not going to control me unless its all good. When I started to understand my personality traits that were causing tension,this helped a ton. I would start to get pain and then I would focus on something that might be causeing anger or anxiety. Then I would counter that with good thoughts of peace and patience.
Any other time I would think about the pain, but this time I thought about things I needed to do for the rest of the night. The way I thought before I ever got hurt and this wouldn't generate any pain, it would make the symtom stop.
Just keeping my mind off the focus of my lower back and thinking in terms of other things like I said above. It worked fine like magic,as you can tell I'm combining everything for what works best for me and its working good.
I'll just think in the now or become mindful or think psychological. These were more of my last steps. Of course I'll keep on re-programming and re-versing to recondition and stay fine tuned.
- Reading sarnos books and applying every method you see.
- Believing all of it unconditionally.
- Knowing that it is benign and not structural.
- It's real pain but its caused by repressed and supressed emotions.
- Get to the real problems by observing your personality traits. Like how do I react,not act but react to stressors. Also what habits do I have that are causeing stress.
- Learning to reverse negative thoughts by positive affirmations.
- Acceptance that you have TMS and knowing you can get rid of it. (The pain)
- The pain is from something that you think about all day. It's just unnoticed to you now.
- Thinking psycological in all forms.
- If you think about love and acceptance with no fear,this method works too.It's working for me tonite (11-20-12).
Now I know what I'm supposed to do. It's been a look into the power that we really have living on the inside of us. I know how to speak to the mountains now.Don't put a time limit on getting healed. Some people heal in weeks and others months or Yrs. This is a condition that you have built up your whole life by repression. This truly is knowledge therapy and I havent seen a person on the forum yet, that hasn't been healed.
We all come in almost dying in pain and at our wits end. And we recover. We never think at first that we will but as we learn and apply we do. You have to get rid of any fear of your pain. I know it hurts but in time you will learn how to reverse the hurt and you will heal. Break the conditioning and understand repression.Understand elements of your personality, Learn Acceptance.
Also, We have neural pathways ingrained through our mind to our symptoms based on the focus,attention and fear we give TMS. I've re-conditioned my mind to not think this way anymore, so in essence I've grown new neural pathways to hold and send these energy thoughts of healing to my body now. Now if my thoughts try to linger toward a symptom, I'll just think in the now or become mindful and think psychological.
Of course I'll keep on re-programming and re-versing- Learning and applying to stay fine tuned. I've also been healed of many other things along the way through studying TMS. It has made my walk in faith so much stronger.
I know now even though I was told a thousand times before how to just believe and watch miracles happen. I can trust that saying because I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I healed this way with my mind. I've also learned how to manage feelings and emotions. Also If I want to tell someone something - I don't feel guilty because I had to say no . In the past I might have had no awareness of my reactions. Id blame my wife because I didnt know all my perception was rejection. Now if I start to have anxiety or pain I'll start to thinkwhat am I angry or anxious about that I'm holding onto and I will face it and stand up to the bully or critic and Ill almost always have immediate symptom relief.
This is part of my recovery story. Just a reminder to all my friends on the forum to hang in there and never give up. The magic of John Sarno on YouTube was one of the videos that led me to seek TMS healing. I re-watched it today and it made all the sense in the world to me. When I first watched it I didnt quite get it. It's taken a lot of work but its over. I feel like I did before I ever got my back hurt.
While reading your journals and remembering your thoughts from your journaling and accepting them, then you get relief.
I've noticed when I re-read my journals I feel better or if I just think about the repressed thoughts I've stumbled upon while journaling or talking or just about to go to sleep. I ponder on these and I'll notice a huge tension re-lease.
The above story was my style of practice. The story below is how it happened and the other results.
I was one of those time bombs just waiting to go off, not knowing for that one day when the sky was blue and all the day was long and pretty. Even heard a rooster crow that morning. In the south that means it’s going to be a good day. Even though the day was perfect the mechanism knew it was time. I was distracted thinking of something else. My worries were about to fade and I had it all under control then after a debilitating two years of near crucifixion.
Then it hit me as I'd bent over to show my fiancé how to lift a hundred pounds correctly with no problem. Well it was a problem alright cause from that ouch on I just got worse and worse till I was bedridden. Now how’s that for a mechanism that’s supposed to love and help me. But that it did and as time rolled around and I learned the finer points of TMS healing I saw how important it was to have a correct diagnosis. Usually because we are goodist or perfectionist or a little of each or in my case I had both. The goodest was keeping me worried if I was pleasing everyone enough and the perfectionist was killing me thinking that everything had to be perfect.
My whole life I’ve searched for that one grasp of hope that would clear up the pain. I’ve always had pain, very severe mostly and on the days that I felt like I could work, I'd call those days blessed. They were you know. I’ve had a few yrs that I thought I was completely better from the TMS bug but really the whole time I had sciatica, I just never told anyone. Why would the doctors not want to tell me the truth? Well I think Sarno clears that up in his book but it sure didn’t help me any till I found his book. God Bless you Sarno.
The type T's and I started to communicate with each other on forums like TMS Wiki. I decided to fall in head first and understand more about this new found knowledge and that I did. I’m good friends with all the administrators and the owner Forest. Forest has already helped so many and he’s had TMS extreme in the past. He’s like the poster child for TMS, but he's also a genius and he knew how to look for the right diagnosis to his CSI. He went there and never looked back. Thank you Forest.
Really it’s any personality in general, anyone can get TMS. It's true, it’s a small percentage other than the usual types but if you’ve had X-rays, Scans, MRI's, and the such and no one is telling you its TMS. Well here is when you see a TMS Doc or go to where all the gurus are on the TMS Wiki Forum Website and read and apply everything in this book, no ifs, just do it.
The years turned out to be the hardest in my life but also the best. I learned not to take life for granted. I learned to be at peace instead of tense all the time. Loose all un-forgiveness, trust yourself that your capable to always, no matter what age over acheive. I'm healed and I thank you all but really I couldn't even get out of bed for years and years, yes it got that bad but I'm here to say it's over. All that lost time dealing with emotions when really I didnt have to.
I learned many beautiful concepts on how to heal with Dr. Sarnos book Healing Back Pain being at the forfront. We never forget our friend Steve, I guess if he added the folks he's helped, well thats hard to add. We have to be aware of our precious time and go at the program with full belief and tenacity to kill a buffalo in calmness and you'll win. Learn how, I did along with thousnds of others.
I thought at first,is this a gamble since my last decade I have taught and healed with the word and mind body but I never knew your system responded to words that way with just your own words of enlightenment and I started telling the pain to stop. It wasnt real and it would listen. This was cool I'd finally learned how to heal myself, wow! It intriqed me. I'd been doing it the whole time right under my own nose-hum. Something you will learn about at TMS Wiki too is usually to make the best of our lives and we can.
Choose any time to work all that time in right. Really we thank God for our ups and downs, you'll see what I mean when you start your journey. So since ive been healed after 25 yrs total of severe back pain and anxiety. The sky is the limit ya know and here I am with promises to fill to myself. See we can loose sight of the best blessing we have, our health and I did. We stop there when we see the pain and we reverse it then with the TMS healing therapy. It's helped me get my life back and I'm different now. I see the green grass and the pretty blue sky. I can feel the hope and courage again to do anything I want. I have the world at my tips and I work those tips. It's all the LOA ya know.

Diahann Carroll, the Oscar-nominated actress and singer who won critical acclaim as the first black woman to star in a non-servant role in a TV series as “Julia,” has died of Cancer. She was 84.
Carroll’s daughter, Susan Kay, told The Associated Press her mother died Friday in Los Angeles of cancer.
“Carroll was a consummate entertainer and beloved icon whose career spanned nearly seven decades,” said her daughter, Suzanne Kay, in a statement. “She paved the way for many and never allowed anyone to limit or define her.”
Waves of condolences flood social media from Hollywood Stars:
Carroll was the star of “Julia” which ran for 86 episodes on NBC between 1968 and 1971. The Iconic Actress played a nurse named Julia Baker who was raising a young son on her own following the death of her serviceman husband in the Vietnam War
She won a Tony Award, in 1962 for the best actress in a musical, for “No Strings.”
Carroll was nominated for the 1974 Oscar for best actress, for her work in “Claudine.” The top honor that year went to Ellen Burstyn for “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.”
She’s survived by her daughter Kay and grandchildren, August and Sydney.

Cassava is a staple food that is highly consumed after rice. The roots are processed into several products such as flour, fufu, garri, flakes, starch and tapioca. Cassava flour is more in demand than any other flour such as beans flour, rice flour, yam flour etc. Ever since Federal Government band the importation of wheat flour, cassava flour became the toast of bakers especially bread makers. This is the more reason entrepreneurs should invest more into cassava flour production to meet local demand and for export.
It is the only flour that can be added to wheat flour up to 10% without changing the texture,; colour or smell of the product. High quality cassava flour can be gotten by processing cassava roots the very same day they are harvested. Cassava flour is different from alubo because cassava is soaked in water to ferment and processed after 3 days.
Processing cassava the same day makes the colour to be
- Snow white
- Low fat content
- Not sour
- Has good taste
- No bad odour/smell
- Can be mixed with other flour example wheat flour.
It will be more advantageous for you to start cassava farming. Because it is not every variety that is good for cassava flour. It will also double your profit margin.
HOW TO START CASSAVA FLOUR PRODUCTION
Thete are important things to consider before starting cassava flour processing. They are; location, accesibility, transportation, waste disposal facility etc.
Location is very important since the roots must be processed almost the same day they are uprooted. It is advisable to build your cassava flour factory close to the farm. Cassava farming is done largely in the villages,
You need a good space for the production of cassava flour. The place should be big enough to accommodate all the processing equipment. And can contain the different processes of milling, drying etc.
NEARNESS TO RAW MATERIALS
It is ideal to source for cassava where you can be having constant supply; in other to remain in the business. Having shortages in production can cause a set back to the cassava flour production business.
The main producers of cassava roots in Nigeria are: Delta, Cross River, Edo, Kogi,Taraba, Imo,Anambra, Enugu, Benue etc. Chose from any of the states and establish your factory.
A means of transporting the raw materials from the farm to factory should always be on ground. So that the production process will not be delayed because of the delicate nature of the roots. You also need mobility to convey the processed flour to the store, market or to buyers.
WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITY
This is very important in other to keep the factory environment clean. The neatness of the processing equipment distinguishes it from the traditional way of processing. Dig a pit to directt used water and liquid from the root into. Dispose the chaff and cassava peel in a distant place. It can be further processed to animal feeds.
This is where the finished products are kept for marketing. It should be closer to the market and should be accessible. An open place that can be located by interested persons; sellers/consumers alike.

INDUSTRIAL MACHINES FOR CASSAVA FLOOR PROCESSING
- Hammer mill
- Packaging materials
- Stiching machine
MANUAL CASSAVA FLOUR EQUIPMENT
- Bowl or pan
- Cutting board
PRICES OF EQUIPMENT
The price depends on the scale of production. Equipment for large scale production 8s in millions.
Prices of equupment for mini cassava flour production
- Grater #50,000
- Press #30,000
- Rotary dryer for 400kg production per day #400,000
- Mechanical sieve #25,000
- Machine for bagging #60,000
For small scale cassava flour production
Hydraulic press for 500kg #400,000
Flash dryer for 3-5 days #3,500,000
Hammer mill #170,000
Bag sewing machine #60,000
Weighing scale #25,000
To establish a cassava flour production factory you must have steady source of water such as well or borehole. In case you cannot afford a drying machine for a start you can locate a company that has the industrial drying machine. They charge per ton, about #2,000 a ton depending on location.
The main raw material is cassava roots. Don’t use immature roots;; use they ones that are not less than 6 months of planting. This is because the moisture content in the young root is very high and the flour that will come out of it will be very small.
If for any reason you cannot process the roots the same day; don’t remove the roots from the sticks and don’t cut the leaves either. This will make the plant appear in its natural form and fermentation will not take place.
Press the cassava below 20% water content because at this point it cannot ferment again. Dry the flour to a moisture of 12% or at most 14%. If the cassava flour is well dried the colour will not change from snow white. The quantity of material reduces by half after moisture removal. That is 2 tonnes will become 1 ton and so on.
PROCESSING OF CASSAVA FLOUR
Sort the cassava roots and remove any defected or spoilt root. After that you weigh them.
Peel the sorted cassava root manually to avoid wastage. Using machine to peel is not ideal because the shape of the roots are not uniform. Employ many hands to do it for you.
Use big bowl with clean water to wash the peeled cassava.
The washed cassava roots are grated with machine into a paste. After which they are packed into sack bag with tiny holes where water will come out from. You can detoxify the ground cassava with a mash agitator machine for few minutes. In other to remove the toxic hydrogen cyanide present in cassava.
Press the cassava mash with machine to reduce the amount of water inside to about 80%. After pressing is granulation. Hammar mill is used to disintegrate the product into fine granule.
Dry the granulated cassava until the water has considerably reduced and they appear to be very dried when touched.
CASSAVA FLOUR PACKAGING
Bag the flour in a 50kg bagco bag, you can give graphic designers to design the bags for you. It should have your company name and number for people to contact you. Weigh the flour first before filling the bags. Use the sewing machine to sew the mouth of the bag. It will make it appear neat and will not allow the flour to pour.
USES/NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS OF CASSAVA FLOUR
Cassava flour is used to make different kinds of food. Bread production in Nigeria is from cassava flour. Cassava bread is good for people suffering from diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. It is used in making doughnut, chin chin, buns, meat pie and any other snacks.
WHY YOU SHOULD START CASSAVA FLOUR PRODUCTION
- It can replace wheat more than any other flour.
- Cassava flour has a longer shelf life than wheat. It can last for a year while wheat can stay for only 3 months
- It is more preferred now than wheat because people are more aware of its health benefits.
- Cassava flour producers are few so the sector is yet to be dominated
- Equipment for processing them can be bought locally
- The raw material which is cassava root is readily available
- The demand is high due to our rising population
- It is cheap when compared to wheat. A 50kg bag of cassava flour goes for #10,000 while wheat is #11,500.
- Cassava flour production business is very profitable.
GARRI PRODUCTION FROM CASSAVA FLOUR
Garri processed through manual method will not last long before it changes in form because of the high level of moisture content in it. As such you will be forced to sell them quickly whether you like it or not to avoid lost. But industrially produced garri can last long in store for about a year. That means you can keep them for later sell maybe during cassava planting season. Because you will sell them higher at that time. Cassava roots not processed within 48-72 hours will begin to spoil .
The market for cassava flour is greenish because only few companies are producing for a population of over 180M. Supply to bread baking companies, restaurant, snack producers, individuals and shops. Advertise on the net and offline advertising platform. Export the product to other countries for good pricing.
The ideal method of producing cassava flour is through industrial process. However, you can start small and grow them later. Manual production is very successful during dry season and harmattan because drying will be very fast and fermentation will not have a chance.

The slot machine machines are played from the late nineteenth century, so have a long history together with buffs bets!
Although their resounding success on online casino sites is relatively new. They’ve been around for a long time and now we’re going to tell you a little bit about the biggest fun facts about slot machines!
Come with us to find out more!
The first slot machines
There are two theories as to their emergence. The first states that in 1981 the Americans Sittman and Pitt from Brooklyn owned a machine with 5 drums and 50 cards. When the reels stopped spinning, the cards were displayed, forming a poker hand. The winning hand would be awarded and the prizes were drinks and cigarettes.
The second story involves Charles August Fey, who between 1987 and 1989 would have developed three slot machines. The most famous of them being “Liberty Bell”. That made automatic awards of up to ten coins.
The first video slot
With the resounding success of the first machines, the need to create safer versions against possible fraud was recognized.
It was then that in 1963 the first video slot version was born. Money Honey was created in the United States and soon gained fans in the already famous Las Vegas!
the meaning of the name
The name “slot machine”, in Portuguese, is far from expressing anything positive. It is as if the machine was intended only to take the customer’s money, without offering anything else in return. And we know it’s not like that.
Slot machines, or slot machines (in English), offer entertainment, fun and, above all, many opportunities to earn!
They offer the most diverse themes, pleasing all tastes! Its developers are giant industries that strive to create games that provide moments of great emotion to their users, even offering millionaire jackpots.
Programming of slot machines
Slot machines work by generating combinations of figures that offer payouts to the player.
It is important to know the games, the prizes and their jackpots (if any), but there is no strategy for playing slot machines. Their programming, which generates random figures all the time, is the greatest proof that there is only one big factor to guarantee high profits, and that’s called luck.

|Subject: Re: Suggestion for Paris accommodation|
I have walked past your hotel Left Bank St. Germain many times and have their brochure in my collection. You're right, it's a fabulous location so I'm especially glad to hear that you liked the hotel. Just to be clear, you paid 120 Euro's for the larger room with the double bathroom sinks? That's a great rate!
Before booking a Paris hotel, I *always* confirm the size. Often a standard room is only 10 meters while a deluxe room is often about 15 meters, 50% larger......BIG difference!

Former Jehovah’s Witness Jailed for Child Sex Crimes
By Elle Farcic
June 6, 2018
A FORMER Jehovah’s Witness who sexually assaulted three young boys says his homosexual inclinations were repressed by his religion and manifested in his crimes.
Gavin Andrew Lamont, 46, was jailed for four years today for assaulting two vulnerable teenagers in the early to mid-90s and another boy about 20 years later.
Lamont encouraged the teens to give him massages and suggested he needed help checking for testicular cancer.
District Court Judge Linda Petrusa said Lamont, who knew he was homosexual from about age 13, had significant cognitive distortions around sex because of his religious beliefs.
She said the victims, who were aged between 14 and 16, were vulnerable because of their youth and lack of sophistication.
Judge Petrusa sentenced Lamont to four years behind bars for indecently dealing with a child and four counts of indecent assault.
Lamont was kicked out of the Mundaring congregation in 1997 after one of his victims complained to other members, but was reinstated after doing counselling with elders.
He was kicked out of the congregation for a second time in 2014 after another victim made a complaint.
Lamont’s crimes came to the attention of police last year through the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.
Defence lawyer Seamus Rafferty described the case as complex, saying Lamont struggled with his sexuality because his religion told him it was a sin.
He told the court the church was the essence of Lamont’s being and said his client tried to repress his sexuality and ended up behaving in “naive, unsophisticated and pathetic ways”.
Lamont’s parents and sister are all living with complicated health issues and rely heavily on his help and care.
Mr Rafferty asked Judge Petrusa to give Lamont a conditional suspended jail term, saying he was the glue that was holding his family together.
“This is a case for the exercise of mercy, its mercy towards them (his family) and nobody else,” he said.
Judge Petrusa accepted a prison term would be tough on Lamont’s family but said an immediate jail term was the only appropriate punishment.
In a statement to the court, one of the victims said he felt that he was “forever stained” by Lamont’s crime.
He said the abuse had made him self-conscious in his dealings with his own child.
Lamont will be eligible for parole after spending two years behind bars.

[Markus Kison] built a device called Pulse, which is part art installation and part data visualization tool. What the emotional visualization organism called Pulse actually does is scan new posts on Blogger.com blogs for synonyms of keywords related to 24 distinct emotions from eight emotional groups. A red cone in the center expands when keywords are detected, in effect acting as a mood indicator for Blogger.com blogs.
The 24 distinct emotions are based on [Robert Plutchik]’s psychoevolutionary theory of emotion, and the device itself is built from a glass case, various servo motors, and custom controller for the servos. This is a compelling idea, but we wonder whether it scans for modifying words or just the keywords alone. It wouldn’t make a lot of sense to have the sadness region expand drastically if many people simultaneously post the sentence “I’m not sad at all.” Video embedded after the break.
[via information aesthetics]
4 thoughts on “Pulse, The Emotional Visualization Organism”
this thing could destroy the human race :|
I can see the use of such a device, as a general mood indicator, but I share the same concerns about how this system discerns context (if at all.) However, I think it would be interesting to turn this device onto another site, like say, facebook, and see if there are any corolations. Or worse, change the perameters, and turn it onto a ‘sex stories’ site.
when will the pseudo-art end?! its getting ridiculous.
oh and if you want a 3d data visualization tool get an lcd screen and learn opengl. it feels like junk science meets led throwies with a pinch of vanity.
It’s not pseudo-art. Just because it’s not the art you look at… (and by that I mean you probably try to find all the paintings of tits in an art museum).. does not mean it isn’t art.
Also you’re latter comment bugged me. The point of this was that it’s tangible and real. It displays human emotion and it’s easier for a human to relate to a real life object. (Well.. apparently not you. You seem to only relate to the virtual world, which must be very damaging to your perspective on life. Go outside.. make something with your own two hands and live. (Not saying coding can’t be rewarding in it’s own rights.. but sometimes you need something more …real)
Please be kind and respectful to help make the comments section excellent. (Comment Policy)


text: To immerse themselves in the music industry, Chemical Diary decided to strike out to Hollywood, California in the Fall of 2014, which was where and when they met Laurence Greenblatt (Melrose Larry Green) from the Howard Stern Show. In the Winter of 2016, Chemical Diary ran into Melrose Larry one morning at a fast food restaurant in Hollywood, and he said to the brothers, "Write a song called 'They Are People Too'." and for them to include in the song's lyrics "shopping cart", "untold stories", and "the one legged man in the wheelchair", and Chemical Diary agreed to collaborate on the song. Over the next few weeks Chemical Diary was inspired by the same types of scenes being shown publicly on the Hollywood streets as was Melrose Larry when he mentioned to Chemical Diary that they should write the song "They Are People Too" about homelessness. Chemical Diary recorded the song "They Are People Too" at Sunset Sound Studios on May 17, 2016 with Engineer, Morgan Stratton. A couple of days later, after seeing an advertisement in a Music Connection Magazine, which read "NEED RADIO AIRPLAY?", the brothers made a phone call to National Record Promotion. "They Are People Too" was mixed and mastered at Studio City Sound in Los Angeles, California on August 4, 2016 by Engineer, Jeff Ryon. Chemical Diary performed a concert at the world famous Whiskey A Go Go on September 29, 2016.
