IADC by Dr Allan Botkin
As a mental healthcare provider I specialize in deep-trance psychotherapy. This includes Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a neurological technique which transformed whole areas of treatment throughout almost every country of the world.
During comprehensive research into EMDR it was discovered that a certain percentage of entranced test subjects was able to discern, or communicate with, deceased individuals.
Shocked though the conservative psychologists were, especially as some of the subjects were healthcare professionals, further research established that something like 60 to 70 percent of ordinary members of the public could be induced to experience this phenomenon.
The initial programs were carried out by Dr Allan Botkin, a psychologist employed at the Chicago Veterans Administration Hospital. His 2005 book, Induced After Death Communication: A New Therapy for Healing Grief and Trauma (Hampton Roads Publishing Company) contains details. Dr Botkin discusses the fact that he and several dozen colleagues he trained in the specialist technique helped thousands of clients make contact with deceased people. The process is known simply as IADC®.
I found myself using this as a logical extension to my clinical practice because of my experience in the field, even as I switched focus to self-IADC® in order to pursue further empirical research. Many clients benefitted. Shortly afterwards my wife died.
Val had been in a high-dependency hospital unit for three years as a tetraplegic, able to squeeze words out only in a painful whisper and able to move nothing but her eyes. I visited her every second day from our home 45 minutes drive to the north on New Zealand's Kapiti Coast. For three years I fed her the evening meal as once we had taken turns to spoon feed our two babies. But eventually Val took her leave. There were no more tears left, only a defeated deadness.
Three days later I sat by myself at home and initiated an IADC® trance, as I had so often in the past. Without trouble I came across Val. She gave me a hug. I experienced little else. There was no warning of the conflict which was to overtake our interface within two days.
Throughout his protracted research into IADC® Allan Botkin encountered little evidence of such conflict. Only one case reported acrimony between a communicator and a deceased person. This involved an immature and self-centred individual who wanted help to cope with the recent death of his wife. At the time he was experiencing a profound grief reaction producing anger.
During the IADC® session he met his wife, peaceful in an aura of white light. However she was more focused on their children than on comforting him or answering his questions. Further, she told him that his anger was not productive. It was only the intervention of the psychotherapist that drained his indignation and prompted him to complete the session.
During this process the deceased wife provided pointed advice about a business venture he was contemplating. To compound Client's distress, his deceased father-in-law appeared to discuss family concerns. This caused jealousy and more indignation.
As an aside it can be seen that the IADC® experience was not influenced by Client's narcissistic expectations, which would surely have led to his own selfish needs being met. By extension it seems unlikely that expectation on the part of any client plays a role in the IADC® process. Many other IADC® case histories support this contention.
Although there seem to be few researchers with my broad background in trance psychotherapy, including Dr Botkin who specialized in scientific research, nevertheless he provides an insightful understanding of one intricately-detailed and complex case history in particular.
During Client A's childhood, his father sexually and physically assaulted him and his two sisters. One of Client A's sisters killed herself as a teenager, and the other did the same just before Client A presented for therapy. Now Client A was contemplating suicide.
While engaged in the first IADC® session Client A came face-to-face with his recently-deceased sister, and afterwards commented, "It's the first time I've seen her happy, although she is sorry for the distress her suicide caused." Brother and sister then discussed other family members who had died. The sister concluded by providing encouragement and advice, and counseled him strongly against taking his own life.
During the next session Client A confronted his father, and found himself pushing the other away. Father's presence was offensive. But the spirit personality looked so distraught. For the first time Client A found an awareness that his father carried the suffering he caused. He lived it!
Client A to Botkin later on: "He seemed so pitiful. So sorry. He kept repeating it. He said there was no excuse, and that he resorted to such appalling behavior because that's how his father treated him." Client A paused reflectively. "I really feel that forgiveness is possible. Our suffering makes some sort of sense now, because I know why he did these things." Afterwards Client A felt much more reconciled and comfortable. Suicide was no longer on his mind.
Another client, a psychologist, was a skeptic at the personal level who nevertheless included IADC® in her clinical practice. So intrigued did she become that in consultation with Dr Botkin she decided to try it on herself.
Client B sought contact with her father who died several years before. Habitually he was anxious and unpredictable, and by no means the perfect father. Apparently without effort she encountered him "as much younger and more relaxed – quite unlike the father figure I remembered." A conversation ensued about the family, but then shifted to Father's continued sadness that he had not been a satisfactory role model.
Despite a newfound sense of peace, Client B felt some conflict at her father's dilemma. After a further session of self-induced trance her conflict was resolved, and reportedly the discomfort suffered by her father as well. A year later Client B commented to Dr Botkin that she found an unaccustomed serenity, adding, "Almost certainly IADC® is a natural ability that can be tapped by most people." No longer was the skeptic skeptical. [No direct or close quotations or references have been sourced from Dr Botkin's book.]
It must be admitted that most people encountering IADC® have a much more fleeting experience, usually without detailed conversations. Everyone is different. It is rare, however, for someone in an IADC® trance to undergo what they expect to undergo. They experience what is offered. So it was with me when I encountered my wife in the after-death state.

There is a well known philosophical question that asks whether a falling tree makes a noise if no one is around to hear it. The argument dwells on the difficulty of proving whether the sound wave generated by the impact of the tree crashing into the ground actually happens if no one is there to witness the event.
Recently a big wind brought down a hundred year old spruce tree at the end of our driveway. I was working in the garage with the radio on and did not hear the crash as it fell across our driveway. This tree stood tall in our life over the 26 years that we have lived at this location. Hung on this tree was our family sign, welcoming visitors to our yard. This magnificent evergreen served as a reminder of what our acreage is known for. It is hard to describe all of the ways that this tree impacted us over the years.
The giants in our hobby sometimes fall when no one is listening. Most will have lived for many decades. Participation in our hobby usually leads to a long and fulfilling life, as evidenced by the average age of our fellow collectors. Whether anyone "hears" the giants when they fall is irrelevant as we all feel the impact of their passing. Many of these giants have published vast amounts of research or contributed to the operation of our clubs, societies and associations. Their efforts have greatly increased the enjoyment that we have experienced in our pursuit of numismatic knowledge.
Recently three "giants" have fallen, Somer James, Jerry Remick and Earl Salterio. Collectively they represent a "forest" of numismatic knowledge and dedication to our hobby. If you take a moment of silence to mourn these numismatists, you will hear the sound of thousands thanking them for their contributions to our hobby they so dearly loved.
You do not need the philosophical wisdom of Aristotle to hear the thunder generated by the falling of these numismatists and the impact of their efforts on our collecting landscape.
A waggle dance is defined as a series of patterned movements performed by a scouting bee, communicating to other bees of the colony the direction and distance of a food source or hive site. According to Gould (1974, 1975) and von Frisch (1993) for sources near the colony, a simple round dance is performed. At greater distances, a sickle dance is performed. Finally, at the furthest distances from the nest, a waggle dance is performed. The waggle dance is the most complex dance used by bees. The angle and number of waggles in the waggling run of the dance translate to direction and distance, respectively, to the food source at which the dancer had most recently foraged. Von Frisch also observed that the age of a bee is known to affect waggle speed when communicating long distances. Older bees waggle significantly more slowly than new foragers for a given forage source.
When you started collecting how did you learn where the "honey" was located? Did a numismatist guide and direct you in your collecting pursuits? Who sponsored your coin club membership? How many of the talks at the coin club influenced your numismatic interests? Have you ever wondered how new collectors wind up collecting what they do? Maybe it is up to us to influence them. After all, how are they supposed to know what they could collect if someone does not show them what is available and help them avoid the pitfalls?
How will new collectors know the benefits of attending the annual convention if we failed to promote the event and encourage them to attend? One of the most significant ways in which to grow from a coin collector to a numismatist is to attend our annual event. The convention offers educational seminars, numismatic displays and the most significant representation of numismatic dealers of any coin show held in Canada. The opportunity to learn from the serious and famous numismatists that attend every year is unsurpassed by any other event in Canada. Many organizations host special meetings and dinners at the convention to promote communication and information amongst their members and guests. The fellowship and friendship available on the bourse floor and at the events and meetings is "honey" for the hungry collector "bee". Why not perform your own "waggle dance" and guide the collectors in your area to the nectar available at The Canadian Numismatic Association Annual Convention in Calgary this year?
T ime stops for no man. We have all heard the expression but it had never really struck me as much as it did this past summer when a very dear friend of mine who I have known for over twenty years stayed at our home in Ireland. I hadn't seen him in over ten years but we always phoned each other and wrote regular emails. To be frank, I was startled by my friend's appearance; he really did look his age which is well over thirty years more than mine. I suppose the fact that his health wasn't great only compounded the differences in my eyes. But more than anything he looked weary - I mean bone weary. We had a great time touring Cork and the outlying region and my friend really seemed to enjoy the rest. But underneath his calm exterior he was anxious to get back to all the things he had to do… and he had a very, very long list.
You see, my friend's favourite saying is, "if I don't do it no one else will", and as a result he never delegates anything. It's not that he's power hungry. He is, however, quite a fussy perfectionistwho believes that "a job worth doing is a job worth doing well". As a result, he volunteers for every committee and eagerly accepts every job he is offered. Of course, everyone is glad that he is such a dedicated numismatist and his input is both invaluable and genuinely appreciated. Unfortunately, he has burned the candle at both ends for so long that the two ends are close to meeting. We had a heart-to-heart discussion one night where he shared his concerns with me and I offered him a suggestion which I think other "super-volunteers" should perhaps also consider… mentoring.
Have a look at your next local coin club meeting and try to guess the average age of your members. Then ask yourself, "what has our executive done to ensure that this club will still exist twenty or even ten years from now". While that might seem melodramatic, I urge you to look over old coin club directories to see just how many clubs have closed in the last twenty years. Don't take it for granted that your club will still be around twenty years from now. It takes a lot of work to successfully run a coin club and mentoring may just save a club that is on the verge of dissolving.
Mentoring is a means of unassumingly grooming a successor - even if he or she doesn't assume the mantle of Club President (or C.N.A. President for that matter) for another five years, ten years or more.
Mentoring is an ideal way for two generations of collectors to comfortably interact. Older collectors get the opportunity to teach younger collectors about the traditions of a particular local, regional or national organization. Canadian numismatics has a very respectable heritage and we all have a responsibility to ensure that those roots are never forgotten. For example, I've never met Napoleon Breton or Robert McLachlan but I am in awe of their contributions to Canadian numismatics. Similarly, the contributions of Fred Bowman, Doug Ferguson, Sheldon Carroll, Bob Willey (and many others) need to passed on to the next generation. Mentoring is a perfect vehicle for sharing the stories of our past with the future pillars of our numismatic fraternity. Experienced collectors need to inspire our future leaders now! Politicians do it and we should too!
The types of knowledge that can be passed along through mentoring are virtually limitless and they do not have to be restricted to coin club executives. For example, why not invite a less experienced collector to help you with your next research project. By teaching them proper research techniques you can ensure that our numismatic legacy is continued. Not only will they learn more about subway tokens, university scrip, error coins or whatever strikes your fancy… but I guarantee you that they will be thrilled to see their name in the by-line too. With some thoughtful tutelage, they'll hopefully gain the confidence to venture off on their own research projects some day.
Or why not share the role of Editor of your club journal with a young collector? Not only will you get the benefit of an extra pair of hands but a younger (nonjaded) viewpoint may result in a livelier, fresher publication. Anyone who has kids can tell you that they have a completely different way of looking at things than us grownups. In fact, the end-product will probably astound you. And the sharing of information does not have to be one way only. Younger collectors can teach the older generation how to use modern technology in the 'information age' and they will appreciate the opportunity to be a contributing member of your club.
However, I must add one word of caution at this point. To work successfully, both parties must freely volunteer to participate in a mentoring program. Coercing or pressuring members to take part may not only disillusion them but it might also cause them to leave your club as well. Nonetheless, I firmly believe that mentoring is a win-win-win proposition which not only benefits the individuals concerned but the organization as well.
My friend has mentored a few different people for various things since he returned to Canada and he says that not only is his workload lighter but his life his richer because of the new friendships he has formed as well. So I urge you to try mentoring for yourself.
Remember the old adage, "you will reap what you sow". Start sowing the seeds of Canada's numismatic future today!
Farmer John grew up on his Father's farm like many farmers do. He witnessed firsthand the sweat and toil needed to grow the crops and raise the herd. After his family had grown up, got married and moved out, he started to think about the whole concept of farming. Finally, at lunch one day in the middle of swathing the crop he brought up the subject with his wife. He described to her his frustration at having to prep the soil in the spring, plant the crop and apply fertilizer and herbicides, let alone the expense. He concluded that the most effective approach was to only harvest the crop. Why bother with the rest of the process when the profit happens in those magic few weeks in the fall.
Recently a local coin dealer described his frustrations at getting one of his clients to attend our local coin club. The collector did not like the talks on areas of collecting outside his speciality. He needed to learn how to grade coins and did not feel that the club was about to educate him in this area any time soon. He was not prepared to get to know any of the other collectors, nor seek out their opinions or guidance as he was in a hurry to learn what he needed to know. He was not prepared to get close to those club members that own grading guides or own material graded by the various grading services, whether or not they would welcome the opportunity to share their experience and expertise.
Was his hesitation at discussing the subject with others and spending the time learning about grading similar to Farmer John mentioned above? Was this collector hoping to take a shortcut to success? Most of us want to get into heaven; few of us want to die. Success is seldom accomplished by taking shortcuts.
If you hope to reap a bumper crop in our hobby you are advised to follow the process developed by Numismatists over the years. They learned that you have to plant the seeds of knowledge and nurture it with hard work developed firsthand. You must sprinkle experience and understanding in the mix for good measure and allow generous amounts of time and the nourishment that comes from fellowship to be able to reap a bountiful and golden harvest.
T he article: Medallic Art From the Estate of Ellen Fairclough by Lewis E. Tauber (CCN May 31) was a refreshing change from the endless offerings of discussions about coins with small and large beads, high and low numerals, numbers of waterlines and of the latest NCLTs, which often dominate the numismatic columns. It was both a surprise and a treat to encounter a numismatist writing about his pleasure in discovering medallic art.
While Mr. Tauber's finding opened a new numismatic experience for him, he might be interested to know that similar happenings started other collectors along a common path for appreciation of this subject. The acquisition of an interesting group of awards to a person can lead to many pleasurable hours of research. The first inclination seems to be learning about the recipient and Mr. Tauber has taken this first step. It then becomes apparent that it was the achievements of the person or their individual importance that were the reasons why they received these recognitions.
Important achievements are often acknowledged with important awards, which if these are medallic, may be scarce, unusual or even rare. Acquisitions like the Fairclough group offer several research possibilities beyond learning about the recipient - some being: the purpose of the awards, an understanding and interpretation of their designs, the manufacture of the pieces, biographical information about the artists and an examination of the artists' other works.
In the context of medallic art, Mr. Tauber says he wonders about the relationship of the recipient to the importance of the medals. One answer is, that when important medallic art is awarded, it is often for significant accomplishments: it is likely cherished and carefully preserved by the recipient. So, in a numismatic sense, the recipient can be key to the item, but secondary to its numismatic importance. Medallic art is often created as an artistic expression or to represent a theme and so is not confined to works made for particular events, awards or recipients.
Mr Tauber asks whether medallic art is an accepted part of numismatics. Numismatics is defined as 'the science of coins and medals' and so, if the works he is referring to meet the definition of 'medal', they certainly qualify. Medallic art has been an acknowledged part of numismatics since the development of medals, in the Renaissance. If our 'science of coins and medals' accepts elongated cents, wooden nickels and Canadian Tire Coupons - can it deny medallic art?
The collectors of medallic art are most prevalent in Europe and in the U.S. where two popular areas of collecting are, thematic collecting and the specialized collecting of works by a chosen listed artist. Collections in these categories frequently contain larger size medals and plaques, which may be rare and beautifully artistic expressions of their subjects. Many specialized collections in the U.S. are formed around the works of American sculptors, but similarly, many collectors actively seek the plaques and medals of other noted artists. The Society of Medalists in the U.S. is devoted to medallic art. It has had many prominent artists produce the art-medals for its series, which is issued to members. These medals areanother source of collector interest.
While there can be no doubt that medallic art is a part of numismatics, its true devotees are best defined as 'collectors of art in a medallic form', rather than as 'medal collectors', but what matters most is that the topic of this discussion is truly worthy of being pursued for the enjoyment of the discoveries that can be made. We can thank Lewis E. Tauber for drawing our attention to this fascinating segment of our hobby.

About 30 years ago I read an editorial in a motorcycle magazine that focussed on the dangers of making a left hand turn. The writer used the first 90% of the column to describe the many accidents his friends and acquaintances had that were the fault of automobile drivers. His premise is that a motorcycle is nearly invisible to oncoming left turning vehicles and as a result - it is best to drive accordingly. His long list of examples was meant to emphasize that it is not a question of 'if' his readers will ever be involved in an accident but a matter of 'when'.
I could fill up all of the pages of this issue of The CN Journal with horror stories of 'data accidents'. I remember too well the anger experienced by the lady in the computer shop the day she came in with a dead hard drive. Needless to say, she did not have any of her files backed up. The loss of one's files is so traumatic that the data recovery firms often employ grief counsellors. Some information might not even be available anymore. Email, often times, can not be recreated, not unlike the loss of letters in a fire.
Data loss can also occur through infection by computer viruses. Once a system is infected it may be difficult or time consuming to remove the source of the problem without having to resort to a complete format. The security options in the Windows NTFS file system can severely impact the options for data recovery. The homepage highjacker spyware making the rounds today are difficult to remove. The various backup programs can compress your data into difficult to read file formats that could require replacement of defective hardware before your information can be retrieved and recreated.
Whether you use floppies, flash memory USB drives, CDR, CDRW, DVDR, DVDRW, magnetic media or offline storage, please remember that like the motorcyclist, it is not a matter of 'if' but 'when' you will lose data. You only have to archive the data that you do not want to lose. You only have to back up the files that are difficult or time consuming to recreate.
Do it today and remember to do it often!
I am not sure if you know my friends even though we have been 'buds' for a really long time. Over the years I have always relied on them to behave in a professional and courteous manner. They have always surprised me with their creativity and innovative ideas. They make every effort to satisfy all of the people all of the time. Most of their customers look to them for their quality products time and time again. I am truly optimistic that the future is bright for these wonderful people.
I am concerned that they are the "Rodney Dangerfield" of our hobby. They rarely get the respect they deserve. Their actions seemed to under the microscope of every collector, dealer, and reporter. Regardless of how many successful campaigns or product launches are produced the slightest misstep and everyone cries out vehemently.
Don't get me started on the nerve of people when they hold my friends accountable for the fickle nature of the secondary market. What makes their critics think anyone should be responsible for whether an item increases or decreases in value over time is beyond me. If these pundits had their way each item would have a mintage of one. Producing a single specimen of each item might guarantee these detractors a profit. Lord knows what the grandparents would be forced to purchase for their loved ones should the choices be restricted in this manner.
I often wonder whether these "experts" will ever understand the gift market. I truly believe that an exceptionally well made item, attractively packaged and professionally marketed will always satisfy a gift giver and recipient far better than some dull, worn, and dipped decimal coin with a boring design. Bright and shiny will always win out over rarity if the goal of the giver is to create that "gasp" when a present is first opened.
If you want a guaranteed return on your investment then buy a term certificate or other fixed rate deposit vehicle. Most coins do not really increase in value over the years, especially if inflation is taken into account. The real value, of course, is the thrill of the hunt, the joy of learning, and the friendship of other numismatists.
Why not give the benefit of the doubt to my friends at the Royal Canadian Mint and respect their efforts at all they have done for our hobby. They deserve it!
I met Pete while working at the pulp mill in Grande Prairie, Alberta. We traveled to work together and got to know each other well. In the winter we would plan our four wheel drive adventures for the next summer. The winters in the Peace River farming district can get quite cold and in the days before the internet and cable TV people were forced to find indoor activities to pass the time. A group of us guys would get together and play ping pong on those long, cold winter days. It was a lot of fun, even though we were not as good as Forest Gump.
If you have ever played ping pong, you have probably wanted to hit the ball with some extra spin on it assuming that smashing the ball back to your opponent will win the point. Simply returning the ball to your opponent's side of the table, each and every time, will more likely result in success than anything else. Getting creative usually leads to failure and not to success. Pete taught me not to defeat myself but rather to let my opponent make the mistakes and defeat themselves. In baseball, greater success is achieved by consistently hitting singles and doubles than is achieved by trying to hit home runs and striking out.
These ideas apply to the hobby of coin collecting. Collectors should consistently follow each and every auction, comb through dealer advertisements in the Canadian Coin News, and work the bourse floor at the local club meetings, major shows and the annual C.N.A. Convention to broaden their exposure to the availability of rare coins. Regular communication with dealers, fellow collectors and local coin club members will keep you informed. Membership in other clubs and regional or national organizations will expose you to new ideas. Keep your eye on the ball! You must develop your abilities and skill sets if your goal is to "win the game" of assembling a fine and noteworthy collection. The buyer that attempts a big score by driving up the price on a single or a few items at one sale will never succeed as well as the disciplined numismatist.
The key to success in our hobby is the growth of your associations with other collectors and dealers and the friendships that you form. Contacts are developed by attending local club meetings, national conventions and educational seminars and by writing, contributing or volunteering. Friendships take time to develop do not grow overnight from a single event or discussion. Consistency of actions, reasonable behaviour and time served are the keys to building collections and friendships that score points toward winning in our hobby, no different than in life, in baseball and in ping pong.
While researching the first volume of The Canadian Numismatic Journal of 1956, I was amazed at the efforts and dedication of the founding members of the Canadian Numismatic Association. Reading about when the C.N.A was young is interesting and fascinating. I wish I owned a time machine and could attend those early meetings and conventions. Where would our association be today without the commitment and dedication of member number 1 and all of the great numismatists that followed?
Ian Fleming, in his fictionalization of the "licensed to kill" agents of the British Secret Service, identified top spies by number only, with a double zero prefix. You could draw a parallel between that numbering system and the membership numbers of the founding members of our numismatic organizations. Maybe the first ten, or so, members of the C.N.A., C.P.M.S., C.N.R.S, C.A.T.C., A.N.F.C., C.A.N.D., C.A.W.M.C., C.M.N.S. and the O.N.A., to name a few, are like the top spies in the novels about James Bond. Both groups root out evil, serve Queen and country and generally save the day. The comparison is incomplete as I am unaware of the success with the members of the opposite gender that these pioneering numismatists enjoyed and whether their martinis were shaken or stirred.
Recently, I needed to look up Chris Boyer's membership number for use in the table of contents page for the November issue of The CN Journal. I thought it would be fun to try to memorize his membership number by associating it with something or someone that reminded me of him. When I think of his many outstanding contributions to Canadian numismatics and how he has served so many young collectors, his ability to hunt down details, make a killing (on the bourse floor), root out the evil of ignorance and his talent for quick decisive action; it reminds me of James Bond agent 007. After reading his fine article Mountie Money I could not help but wonder if he is an agent for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or at the very least, their best known numismatic secret agent. While Chris may have the same screen presence as Sean Connery or some of the other actors who have played 007, you could say that he would, at least, come in nineteenth place. To me, he's agent 19007.

}

It's a program from a tutorial here but when i run it, i juste have a black screen.
Any idea?
Thanks.

A: *

*It is incorrect to not specify the profile and create a window, as the SDL's documentation clearly states:

SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK determines the type of context created, while both SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION and SDL_GL_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION determine which version. All three attributes must be set prior to creating the first window

Set SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_MASK to SDL_GL_CONTEXT_PROFILE_CORE since the tutorial you're following is geared towards shader-based OpenGL, you're supposed to create a core profile context.

*When you've a core profile OpenGL context, there's no concept of default shaders i.e. atleast the vertex and fragment shaders are to be specified by you, the programmer. For details see How does the default GLSL shaders look like? for version 330.

*You need to create and bind a VAO before using functions like glVertexAttribPointer. Some OpenGL drivers let you skip this step, nevertheless it's better to not skip this.
See this tutorial on how to setup the VAO, vertex and fragment shaders. Since you've only 2D points as input to the vertex shader, while the tutorial has 3D points, change the vertex shader to this:
#version 140 core
layout(location = 0) in vec2 vertexPosition_modelspace;

void main() {
    gl_Position.xy = vertexPosition_modelspace;
    gl_Position.z = 0.0;
    gl_Position.w = 1.0;
}

Q: Android phones server client over internet communication IP Im starting to work on Android app in which I will use two phones to communicate with each other. I planned to have that communication over internet, maybe if one phone publishes certain data on IP address, server,  and other opens that page(client). Problem is that I haven't god fixed IP address on any phone, can I pass that problem in any other way or I need to consider different ways for communication?? Thank you!

A: Yes, you cannot directly connect two phones via internet, but you can use a middleware for this purpose. Main idea is that the first device send the message to this middleware (server) and the second periodically try to pull them.
There are many ready-to-use solutions for this purpose and the choice of solution depends on your case: which data type you want to transmit (text, binary, multemedia), how fast, etc. For instance for text messaging you can try to use XMPP-protocol or may be C2DM framework will be enough.
Any way the most appropriate solution is to use one of the existed protocols or technologies.

A: If your phones are close together, you can try an ah hoc WiFi network. It seems like directly addressing one phone from another using the cellular Internet is about never possible. It could be possible sometimes for some providers if the two phones are in the same cell perhaps, but you can not rely on it.

Ask a Funny Woman
Anjelah Johnson told us all about her new comedy special, and how a girl working Burger King's drive-thru changed her life
Stephanie Hallett
Leon Bennett/FilmMagic
You might know her best as the woman behind the viral nail salon joke, or as the infamously bad King Burger employee Bon Qui Qui, but stand-up comedian Anjelah Johnson is back with another comedy special (her fourth!) and we couldn't be more excited.
Johnson's forthcoming special, Mahalo & Good Night, will air on Epix September 29th at 10 p.m. It was filmed at the Hawaii Theater in Honolulu, Hawaii, and offers up another dose of Johnson's singular style, riffing on her friends, family, marriage, and her addiction to crime dramas.
HelloGiggles had the chance to chat with Johnson about the special, her stand-up comedy career, and her very sweet relationship with her husband. Read on to find out what to expect from Mahalo, and the hilarious job Johnson really wants.
HelloGiggles: I'd love to start by asking about your new special — what can viewers expect?
Anjelah Johnson: I am constantly evolving and growing, but I stay true to my roots of telling a lot of stories about my family, my marriage, and the things that I experience firsthand, giving my storyteller, observational point of view. So I talk about things from my marriage to the time I got a massage and my massage therapist fell asleep on me. I talk about my husband and I [buying] our first home and how that relates to my crazy addiction to crime dramas, and how I feel like I'm in an episode of one.
HG: What do you like about putting out stand-up specials and watching how people react to those, versus doing live shows?
AJ: Live shows are amazing, because you get that instant gratification of that laugh in the moment, and you get to experience something with this particular group of people — and it's different every single show. I can do six shows in one city and all six of those shows are going to be different, because the people sitting there are different. I can be doing the same material, but the way it's received, the people that I'm looking at while I'm telling the story, it just feels different every time.
And then when I release a special, the comments that I get from people on Twitter or wherever, who may not have been able to make it to one of my live shows, or maybe I've never gone to their city before — or their country before — just to see that my comedy is able to touch people even at home is amazing, because I watch comedy at home, too, so it's cool to see that I get to be a part of that.
HG: Who are some of the comics you love most?
AJ: You know what, I love my friends — the guys who open for me. Mal Hall is my guy who opens for me usually, I try to take him everywhere I can, he's hilarious. Nate Bargatze is one of my good friends; he used to open for me a long time ago, and now he's just blowing up doing his own thing. Fortune Feimster, Jo Koy, my friends — I really enjoy watching them and supporting them.
When I first started, I would say Ellen DeGeneres, George Lopez, and Brian Regan — those are comics that I admire. I look up to them, and I am so honored to get to say that I do the same thing they do. But most of the comedy that I watch is my friends.
HG: I'd love to ask you about your famous nail salon joke — were you surprised that it took off the way it did 10 years ago?
AJ: Absolutely, I had no idea that was going to happen. I mean, nobody knew YouTube was going to happen. It was right at this perfect timing where this brand new thing called YouTube came out, so if you got an email with a video in it, then you definitely watched it, because that was a new thing, receiving a video in an email. So it was that perfect timing of this funny, relatable joke with this new thing called YouTube, and it just blew up.
HG: How did you feel when it went so viral?
AJ: It was amazing. I didn't know how to handle it, to be honest. Because this was back when MySpace was hot, before Facebook, and my MySpace page blew up with friend requests from all over the world, and I didn't know how to handle it. I started getting people requesting me to come perform in their cities, and I really only had about 12 minutes of material at the time. It kind of propelled me to where I am, to be honest.
HG:What about Bon Qui Qui? What's her origin story?
AJ: Bon Qui Qui is a little bit of a lot of people I've met throughout my life, more specifically my brother. Just ghetto fabulous, no filter, he says whatever he wants to say, he's got tattoos all over, he's just this ghetto, hilarious, no-filter kind of guy.
And then, many years ago now, fresh out of high school, I was in Memphis, Tennessee and I met this girl in a Burger King drive-thru, and she changed my life. She was just a hot mess, and I had never experienced anybody like her let alone in life, but in customer service specifically. It just really changed my life, and it stuck with me. So when it came time to create that character, that was my go-to ghetto character.
HG: What was she like, the girl at the drive-thru?
AJ: Similar to my brother — she had no filter, and her customer service wasn't really customer service, it was like I was bothering her by coming through the drive-thru. It's hard to explain, it was just an experience I laughed about and remembered for a very long time.
HG: I wonder if she's seen your impression and sees herself in it.
AJ: Probably not! She's probably like, 'Don't nobody talk like that.'
HG: I'd like to ask about your relationship with your husband, Manwell Reyes; you guys are one of the best couples ever. How did you meet?
AJ: We met through mutual friends, actually; my old roommate married his best friend, and I saw him at their wedding. Nobody introduced me to him at their wedding, and I wasn't going to introduce myself, so I didn't actually meet him there I only saw him. And then I went home, and I cyber-stalked him on the internet. Girl, yes. I went to my friend's Facebook page, and I clicked on her new husband's page, and I went through all of his friends until I found that afro that I saw at the wedding.
And then I did my research on him — I found out who he was, he was in a band, he did music, and just did all my research, and then I let it go. I didn't message him on Facebook, I didn't even tell my friend, 'Hey, I looked up that guy from your wedding. Can you introduce me?' I didn't say anything. I just kind of let it go — for two years.
HG: Wait, what?!
AJ: Yes, girl! I was like, 'Mm, your loss! You snooze, you lose.' That's how confident I was in myself. And I went on with my life for two years, and then next thing you know I get a phone call from my friend who got married that day two years ago, and she was like, 'Hey, I want to hook you up with somebody. I don't know if he's your type, but look him up online — his name is Manwell Reyes.' And as soon as she said his name I was like, 'Ding ding ding!' I remembered my research from two years ago. Mm hm. I didn't even tell her right away that I looked him up, I didn't even tell him for a while.
HG: So what was your first date like?
AJ: It was a group date; he was on tour, and on his off day he flew to L.A. and we went to lunch together with my friend and her husband and their daughter, and it was like, okay, if we like each other enough at lunch then we'll go do our own thing the next day. We liked each other enough to go for a second one-on-one date, like it's The Bachelorette, so we went shopping.
He's super into fashion, I didn't know this at the time, but now it all makes sense. But he's super into fashion, and he loves when girls wear high heels, and it's sexy, and I wanted to get some new shoes, so I took him to DSW [Designer Shoe Warehouse] — strike number one. So we're at DSW, and he's trying to point out any kind of heels or wedges, and I'm pulling out flats and Converse. And so that was strike one. He says I was being cold to him; I say that he was just used to girls fawning over him because he's so hot, and I was not gonna do that. So I think I was just being regular, not fawning. I was just being a normal person, and he thinks I was being cold.
But by the end of the day I warmed up enough — he tells people that he was getting ready to fake a stomachache and go home, because he was not trying to have it, and then I warmed up. By the end of the night we exchanged a hug that was magical; it was so warm and firecracker-y that it was like, whoa, that was special. And then he went back on tour and we dated via Skype and Facebook and text messages.
HG: For how long?
AJ: Not very long, because we met in August, and we were officially boyfriend and girlfriend by October, and then we were engaged by Christmas Eve.
HG: No way!
AJ: Yeah, and then we got married the next June. That was 2011 when we got married.
HG: Wow, a whirlwind!
AJ: Yeah! It happened very fast. They always say, 'When you know, you know.' And it's like, what does that even mean? That's just so cliché. But it really is when you know — you know. You can't even describe it.
HG: What's something people would be surprised to know about you as a couple?
AJ: He's more emotional, like he watches romantic comedies and he loooves Hallmark movies. Hallmark Christmas movies are his jam. That's where he's at. And I am more of the cyborg, I wanna watch Law & Order: SVU, Criminal Minds, anything crime drama — that's where I want to live, and not use a lot of my emotions. And he'll just watch a Hallmark movie and cry.
HG: So what's next for you, career-wise?
AJ: I hope more film and TV; I hope more acting. I feel like I moved to Hollywood to be an actress, and stand-up is what blew up, so for the past 14 years I've been trying to be an actress and I'm still trying to be an actress.
I've had four one-hour specials now, which is amazing and I can't believe that this is my life and I get to be a stand-up comedian and I get to tell jokes all over the country and I get to film these hour specials for people to see all over the world. That is amazing, and not everybody can do that, so I'm so grateful that I get to do that. But at the same time, I moved here as a dreamy 20 year old, saying, 'I want to play a rape victim on Law & Order: SVU,' and I am still waiting for my opportunity.
HG: Should I tweet this story at the producers?
AJ: OMG, please. My fans do it all the time. If I do an Instagram Story where I'm watching SVU, or I'm just talking about how much I love it, which is basically every other day, people will tweet '@NBCSVU, when are you going to have @AnjelahJohnson on?'
So they're probably annoyed, but yes, please do. I'll be an extra.

How MRI's work, advantages/disadvantages and when MRI's are used
advantages (4) can manipulate the patient and the gradient to get what you need. non-ionising no side effects no surgery involved/non invasive
disadvantages (6) costly/expensive to maintain time consuming claustrophobic no pregnant women due to unknown effects on developing fetus no metallic objects near the MRI sometimes inaccurate
when would you use it (7) they're frequently used to diagnose issues with your: joints brain ankles breasts heart blood vessels
stage 1 the patient lies on the table which slides into the horizontal tube known as the 'bore'
stage 2 surrounding the bore is a huge superconducting magnet made of many coils of wire that generate a large magnetic field as the electricity passes through it.
stage 3 maintenance of the magnetic field requires vast amounts of energy which can be maintained through the use of superconductivity (reducing resistance in the wires to almost absolute zero by constantly cooling with a substance such as liquid helium)
stage 4 once the patient is positioned correctly the scan can begin.
stage 5 the magnetic field causes protons in the hydrogen atoms which are precessing (spinning) on their axis to stop spinning and align with the magnetic field, pointing either towards the head or feet of the patient.
stage 6 approximately half of the protons end up pointing towards the head, and the other half towards the patients feet
stage 7 these very protons aligned in opposite direction are said to ' cancel each other out', leaving only very few unmatched protons pointing 'towards the patients head or feet.'
stage 8 a radio frequency (RF) pulse is then generated and directed towards the unmatched protons, which absorb the energy in pulse and start to spin again.
stage 9 at the same time the gradient magnets can be adjusted in order to focus the magnetic field on the exact 'slice' that medical staff want an image of
stage 10 when the RF pulse is switched off the protons which had absorbed the energy begin to return to their previous alignment with the magnetic field, releasing energy as they do so.
stage 11 this energy can be picked up by the coils inside the MRI machine and converted into an image on a computer.
stage 12 the density of different tissues means that they will have different amounts of hydrogen, leading to the tissues appearing different from each other on the image these differences can be further increased by using specific dyes helping identify anomaly's

Plant plenty of hybrid tomatoes right alongside your heirloom tomatoes this year.
Brandy Boy is a popular beefsteak.
An average Steakhouse tomato tips the scales at 3 pounds.
SuperSauce might become your favorite saucing tomato.
Chef's Choice Orange is great for slicing and saucing.
Heirloom tomatoes have become the darlings of the garden in recent years, but they can be high maintenance. Famous for their flavor – and infamous for being temperamental – heirlooms can sometimes sulk and refuse to produce or even grow if conditions aren't just right. Heirlooms typically have been selectively bred for tight, specific regions and conditions. One year, I tried Great White, a white beefsteak heirloom. Four plants produced one massive tomato – total. Meanwhile, other tomato varieties surrounding them produced like mad. Great White just wasn't happy in my garden.
Do you know what else have great tomato flavor, other than heirlooms? Homegrown hybrids. I'm not talking about those suspicious pale red lumps of plastic the supermarket sells that taste like they might be related to Plaster of Paris. A well-grown hybrid tomato can be just as big, soft, juicy, sweetly tangy, and mouthwatering as an heirloom, full of complex acids and sugars. Heirlooms may bring more variety of flavors and shapes to the table, but good hybrids deserve consideration as well.
Flavor isn't all they have to offer either: Hybrids are productive, reliable, disease resistant and manageable. They produce in good weather and in bad, growing in rich soils and poor soils, in clean soils as well as under heavy disease pressures. In a word, hybrids are consistent.
Before we get too involved in the story, let's talk about terms for a minute. Heirlooms are open-pollinated, meaning they can self-pollinate and produce offspring that are roughly identical to the parent plants – what seed collectors call "breeding true." Hybrids, on the other hand, are the result of a deliberate crossbreeding of two different parents. Seeds saved from hybrids, unlike open-pollinated heirlooms, are wildly variable.
There has been some confusion that hybrids are in the same class as genetically modified organisms (GMOs), but this isn't the case at all. GMOs have genetic material from vastly unrelated organisms forcibly inserted into their DNA, often using a viral carrier. For the record, there are no genetically modified tomatoes on the market. None.
What about that pesky hybrid reputation for bland, red hardballs? At one time, it was deserved. Early hybrids were developed for mechanical harvesting on a large scale. They were bred to be consistent, producing a large crop of uniform firm fruit that ripened all at once on compact bushes. In the process, though, the flavor was bred out of the equation. Since then, breeders have been working hard to bring flavor back into the mix, using notable heirlooms as parents. Hybrids like Brandy Boy, Big Daddy, Scarlet Red and Rocky Top have brought flavor and consistency together in one plant.
We do have those early hybrids to thank for another hallmark of hybrid tomatoes – disease resistance. Savvy gardeners with room to do so will rotate their garden beds from year to year to help keep diseases like wilt and blight from building up in the soil. Postage stamp gardeners and tomato farms don't have that luxury. Hybrid breeding has always focused on improving disease resistance to get around this problem. (Read "What the Letters Mean" on Page 63.) Even under heavy disease pressures, hybrids can still ripen a decent crop of tomatoes.
Many hybrids also tend to be more compact, thanks to a characteristic called "determinate growth." Determinate hybrids only grow to a determined height, so they are more like a bush than vinelike indeterminate heirlooms. They need less support than heirlooms, although they do benefit from some support. (Read "The Sky's the Limit," at left.) Their determinate habit makes hybrids easier to harvest for two reasons. Because they sprawl less, you can find the ripe tomatoes much easier without having to wade into a tomato-vine jungle. The fruit also ripen all at once, within a few days to a week of each other – a major bonus for canning and processing homemade sauces and pastes when volume counts.
Maybe the best part of having hybrids in your garden is there's no reason to grow hybrids alone. Plant both hybrids and heirlooms to get the best of both worlds. That way you'll get your big "single slice" heirloom tomato sandwiches all summer, a rainbow of cherry tomatoes, and all the saucing and freezing tomatoes you can handle for weekend processing. Besides, if you mix them up in a salad or saucepot, I doubt anyone will know. Plus, if disaster strikes, you'll still have tomatoes; it's a win-win situation.
Speaking of backup plans, hybrids have one more selling point: plant availability. Even now, while heirlooms are enjoying such popularity, you'll probably only find a few varieties offered as transplants at your local garden center or big box store. When you consider how well-adapted each heirloom is to a specific set of conditions, you may not be able to get an heirloom that will grow well in your garden. Hybrids, by comparison, will grow well in just about any garden.
Hybrid tomatoes have a great pedigree and well-deserved reputation for reliable production. They've earned their place alongside heirloom tomatoes in the garden. They are there in a pinch, faithfully delivering tomatoes without fail, no matter what the season brings. You can count on that!
Vegetable Product Manager Chelsey Fields of W. Atlee Burpee Company recommends the following hybrid varieties by region. With a lineup like this, you're sure to find the perfect tomato for your garden.
Whether determinate or indeterminate, any tomato will appreciate some support, and there are several options for providing that support.
Staking. This is the traditional method of supporting tomatoes. Use a 5- to 6-foot-tall stake for each tomato. Tie each branch to the stake with soft nylon or cloth ties, and don't be afraid to prune off "suckers" or excess branches.
Tomato cages. Those store-bought wire cones really don't supply enough support for the average tomato plant, especially when your part of the country sees significant winds. Save them for your pepper plants. The larger cages will work, however, as will concrete reinforcing wire panels or stock panels used for cattle and hogs. These can be rolled into cylinders for superior tomato cages. Another option is staking the tomato with a T-post and then adding the tomato cage around the plant and post.
A-frames. Old swing set frames or A-frames made from saplings or 2-by-4s make excellent tomato supports. Tie twine to the ridgepole of the frame and run it down to the base of each tomato plant directly below it. As the plant grows, gently wrap the twine around it. The plants' weight will hold them secure on the twine.
Florida Weave. Set fence posts in a line along the tomato row. Run twine back and forth from post to post to create a fence or web. As the plants grow, weave them through the strands of twine for support. Livestock panels can work similarly.
Tomatoes often have a string of letters on the stake or seed packet after their name.
Those letters can tell you a lot about your plant.
OP: Open-pollinated. This means the plant is not a hybrid, its parents were the same variety, and saved seeds will produce more of the same variety.
F1: First filial. This is a fancy way of saying first generation hybrid. A hybrid is the product of crossbreeding two different varieties for specific, desirable traits.
IND: Indeterminate. Indeterminate tomatoes will sprawl over a large area and grow as tall as allowed, and tomatoes will ripen over an extended period of time.
DET: Determinate. Determinate tomatoes have a much more contained, bushy habit of growth, and tomatoes ripen all at once.
V: Verticillium. Variety is resistant to verticillium wilt.
F: Fusarium. Variety is resistant to fusarium wilt. There are several strains of fusarium wilt, and tomatoes may be labeled with several Fs. More Fs means resistance to more strains of wilt.
N: Nematode. Variety is resistant to harmful nematode worms or roundworms.
T: Tobacco Mosaic Virus. Variety is resistant to TMV. Smokers take note, TMV can be transmitted by residues left on your hands after smoking or using smokeless tobacco.
A or AS: Alternaria Stem Canker. Variety is resistant to stem cankers.
St: Stemphylium Grey Leaf Spot. Variety is resistant to grey leaf spot.
TSWV: Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus. Variety is resistant to spotted wilt.
GM or GMO: You will not find these letters on any tomato seed packets or plant tags, as there are no genetically modified tomatoes on the market.

FLTA Member Leads Texas Recovery Effort
Aaron Davis flew from Tampa, Florida, to Austin, Texas, on Friday — because he wanted to help people affected by the snow and ice storm.
"I just felt incredibly guilty sitting down in Tampa, Florida, in the sunshine watching the rest of the country suffer," Davis, 45, tells PEOPLE. "I've weathered many storms in my life in Florida, the hurricane capital of the world."
During the last Florida hurricane, he bought and delivered generators to people in need. "I just try to step up and do what I can," he says.
A business owner (his company does remote real estate closings), Davis told his staff he was taking a month off to volunteer in Texas. "I felt the need to be feet on the ground in Texas to help out however I could," he says.
Read the complete story on People Magazine.
Through Aaron's work with the Harper, TX Fire Department a GoFundMe account has been created calling for funds to assist the community. Aaron has gone on to say, the need is absolutely real and any amount will be a great help.

This SDK requires the config to be externalised to ensure private keys are not committed into your codebase by mistake.

The config file should be set up as follows:

```javascript
//Sample Private App Config
{
    "UserAgent" : "Tester (PRIVATE) - Application for testing Xero",
    "ConsumerKey": "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
    "ConsumerSecret": "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB",
    "PrivateKeyPath": "/some/path/to/privatekey.pem",
    "RunscopeBucketId" : "xxxyyyzzzz"
}

//Sample Public App Config
{
    "UserAgent" : "Tester (PUBLIC) - Application for testing Xero",
    "ConsumerKey": "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
    "ConsumerSecret": "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB",
    "AuthorizeCallbackUrl": 'https://www.mywebsite.com/xerocallback',
    "RunscopeBucketId" : "xxxyyyzzzz"
}

//Sample Partner App Config
{
    "UserAgent" : "Tester (PARTNER) - Application for testing Xero",
    "ConsumerKey": "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
    "ConsumerSecret": "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB",
    "AuthorizeCallbackUrl": 'https://www.mywebsite.com/xerocallback',
    "PrivateKeyPath" : "/some/path/to/partner_privatekey.pem",
    "RunscopeBucketId" : "xxxyyyzzzz"
}
```

Once created this file should be saved somewhere that is visible to your application.

### Config Parameters

| Parameter            | Description                                                                              | Mandatory |
|----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------|
| UserAgent            | The useragent that should be used with all calls to the Xero API                         | True      |
| ConsumerKey          | The consumer key that is required with all calls to the Xero API.,                       | True      |
| ConsumerSecret       | The secret key from the developer portal that is required to authenticate your API calls | True      |
| AuthorizeCallbackUrl | The callback that Xero should invoke when the authorization is successful.               | False     |
| PrivateKeyPath       | The filesystem path to your privatekey.pem file to sign the API calls                    | False     |
| RunscopeBucketId     | Your personal runscope bucket for debugging API calls                                    | False     |
---

**Note:** `RunscopeBucketId` has been added to support debugging the SDK.  Runscope is a simple tool for Testing Complex APIs. You can use Runscope to verify that the structure and content of your API calls meets your expectations.

Sign up for a free runscope account at http://runscope.com and place your bucket ID in the config file to monitor API calls in real time.

Runscope is not endorsed by or affiliated with Xero. This tool was used by the SDK creator when authoring the code only.

## Creating the Client

The client needs to be created depending on your application type (and the config file that was created).  You have three options to choose from:

* Private - can only connect to a single Xero Org
* Public  - can connect to any number of Xero Orgs, but with a 30 minute token expiry
* Partner - can connect to any number of Xero Orgs, with a 30 minute expiry and auto-refresh capability

Once you've chosen this, you can import the appropriate dependency from the `xero-node` library e.g.

## Private App Usage

```javascript
var xero = require('xero-node');
var fs = require('fs');
var config = require('/some/path/to/config.js');

//Private key can either be a path or a String so check both variables and make sure the path has been parsed.
if (config.privateKeyPath && !config.privateKey)
    config.privateKey = fs.readFileSync(config.privateKeyPath);

var xeroClient = new xero.PrivateApplication(config);
```

## Public Usage

```javascript
var xero = require('xero-node');
var fs = require('fs');
var config = require('/some/path/to/config.js');

//Private key can either be a path or a String so check both variables and make sure the path has been parsed.
if (config.privateKeyPath && !config.privateKey)
    config.privateKey = fs.readFileSync(config.privateKeyPath);

var xeroClient = new xero.PublicApplication(myConfigFile);
```

## Partner Usage

```javascript
var xero = require('xero-node');
var fs = require('fs');
var config = require('/some/path/to/config.js');

//Private key can either be a path or a String so check both variables and make sure the path has been parsed.
if (config.privateKeyPath && !config.privateKey)
    config.privateKey = fs.readFileSync(config.privateKeyPath);

var xeroClient = new xero.PartnerApplication(myConfigFile);
```

Now that you've got your Xero client, you can make some calls!
