Under normal circumstances, the photoelectric switch sensor is composed of two parts: a processing path and a processing element. Its basic principle is to use the photoelectric effect to convert the measured changes into optical signal changes, and then use photoelectric elements to further convert non-electrical signals into electrical signals. The photoelectric switch sensor manufacturer tells you that the "photoelectric effect" refers to illuminating an object with light, which can be regarded as a certain energy sequence of photons bombarding the object. At this time, the energy of the photon is transferred to the electron, and all the energy of the electron is An electron is absorbed at a time, and when the electron gains the energy transferred by the photon, its state will change, so the object irradiated by the light will have a corresponding electrical effect. Generally, the photoelectric effect is divided into three categories:
1. The phenomenon that electrons can escape from the surface of an object under the action of light is called external photoelectric effect, such as photoelectric tube, photomultiplier tube, etc.;
2. The phenomenon that can change the resistivity of an object under the action of light is called the internal photoelectric effect, such as photoresistors, phototransistors, etc.;
3. Under the action of light, the phenomenon that an object generates an electromotive force in a certain direction is called photovoltaic response, such as a photovoltaic cell.
The photoelectric switch sensor is a device that converts optical signals (visible and ultraviolet laser light) into electronic signals, and is a key element for photoelectric conversion in various photoelectric detection systems.
The photoelectric switch sensor is a sensor that uses optoelectronic devices as conversion elements. The system can detect the non-electrical physical quantities that directly lead to changes in the amount of light, such as light intensity, illuminance, radiation temperature, gas composition analysis, etc.; it can also detect other non-electrical factors, such as part diameter, surface roughness, strain, displacement, Vibration, speed, acceleration, object shape, working condition recognition, etc., are transformed into light quantity changes. The photoelectric switch sensor manufacturer tells you that the photoelectric sensor has the characteristics of non-contact, fast response, and reliable performance, so it is widely used in industrial automation equipment and robots. The emergence of new optoelectronic devices, especially the birth of CCD image sensors, has opened up new horizons for the further application of optoelectronic sensors.

Q: Laravel Register / Login using Mobile number only I am in process of developing an project by which user can register/sign in using only mobile number (no password ) and once user enters mobile number it should go to otp(One time Password) screen and then when otp verifies, then he can login in.
How to implement, password less mobile number based otp auth system. Basically, i couldn't figure out where to start and how to implement. I already have sms service provider.
But couldnt find how to implement this with the default auth system. I understand that the question doesn't been broad, but i just started the auth system and stuck without knowing how to implement this.
As laravel is fully based on username/email and password based login. I couldnt understand or figure our how to implement Mobile number , OTP base login alone.

A: You can generate a token, store it on your database along with the phone number and send it to the number.
Like:
PhoneToken::create(['phone' => '...', 'token' => Str::random(10)]);

When the user confirms with the token you can go to the database and check if the token belongs to that number, if so authenticate the user.
if (PhoneToken::check($phone, $sentToken)) {
    $user = User::wherePhone($phone);
    Auth::login($user);
} ...

Important: remove unnecessary fields from the user migration and add the phone number field.

A: It sounds like you wont be using much of the default AuthController for this as that will expect some form of username/password combo.
You can however use the Auth facade by doing whatever authentication checks you want and then calling the login() method like so:
// identify your user with your credentials (OTP)
$user= User::where('password', $password)->get();

// If you have a user, authenticate them
if ($user) {
    // Authenticate the user
    Auth::login($user);
}

This is very bare bones but you can read more here
(https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/authentication#other-authentication-methods)

A: You will need AJAX and PHP to send OTP code and then you need to validate it with PHP session data.
The generated OTP code should be stored in PHP session variable.
And session data should verified with the entered OTP is correct or not.
So, its long way to write you code or a class, you need to search and create something then ask for help.
I think many here will be glad to help you.
Here is a nice example : OTP SMS Mobile Verification in PHP

In its staggering human toll, the Kazakh famine of 1930-33 was one of the most heinous crimes of the Stalinist regime. More than 1.5 million people perished in the Kazakh famine, a quarter of Soviet Kazakhstan's population, and the crisis transformed a territory the size of continental Europe. Yet the story of this famine has remained largely hidden from view, both in Kazakhstan and in the West. My book, The Hungry Steppe: Famine, Violence and the Making of Soviet Kazakhstan, which is forthcoming with Cornell University Press in fall 2018, brings this largely unknown story to light, examining two interrelated questions: What were the causes of the Kazakh famine of 1930-33? And how does this famine, an event long neglected in narratives of the Stalin era, alter our understanding of Soviet modernization and nation-making?
The book begins with the famine's roots in the last decades of the Russian empire and concludes with the republic's slow road to economic recovery in the post-famine years of the mid- 1930s. It argues that the Kazakh famine of 1930-33 was the result of Moscow's radical attempt to transform a group of Muslim, Turkic-speaking nomads, known as "Kazakhs," and a particular territory, Soviet Kazakhstan, into a modern, Soviet nation. It finds that through the most violent means the Kazakh famine created Soviet Kazakhstan, a stable territory with clearly delineated boundaries that was an integral part of the Soviet economic system, and forged a new Kazakh national identity. But the nature of this state-driven modernization project was uneven. Ultimately, neither Kazakhstan nor Kazakhs themselves became integrated into the Soviet system in precisely the ways that Moscow had originally hoped. The scars from the famine would haunt the republic throughout the remainder of the Soviet era and shape its transformation into independent nation in 1991.
Along the way, the book uses the case study of the Kazakh famine to overturn several conventional ideas about nation-making, modernization and ethnic violence under Stalin. Seen from the angle of the Soviet east, a region that to date has not received as much scholarly attention as the Soviet Union's west, the regime and the devastating consequences of its policies appear in a different light. The book should be of interest to scholars interested in the global transformation of food systems, genocide studies and environmental history.

California Marijuana Notebook: Seeking permanent relief from licensing headaches
(This is a regular column that delves into the widely varied and complicated issues surrounding California's immense cannabis market from the vantage point of Marijuana Business Daily Senior Reporter John Schroyer. Based in Sacramento, he's been writing about the cannabis industry since joining MJBizDaily in 2014.)
Obtaining business licenses has been a top challenge for California cannabis companies this year.
But now – in a situation that underscores the ongoing flux in the Golden State's marijuana market – keeping those licenses has become a priority since much of California's cannabis industry could come to a halt next spring without action from the governor.
That's because temporary licenses – which the industry has been operating under this year – are forbidden under state law from being extended after Dec. 31.
The problem: There's an enormous backlog of local applications that need to be processed before full annual licenses can be awarded up and down the supply chain.
And because temporary licenses have had to be repeatedly renewed throughout 2018, for a maximum of 90 days, that means they'll all expire by early 2019.
Since the last day for a 90-day extension is Dec. 31, 2018, the longest any given temporary license would allow a California MJ company to legally operate is March 31, 2019.
Bill would right the situation
Enter Senate Bill 1459.
The measure – which cleared the Legislature and is awaiting the governor's likely signature – would provide a regulatory Band-Aid to avoid a "major disruption in the commercial cannabis marketplace."
How? The legislation would permit new, 12-month "provisional" licenses. They would differ from full annual business permits and be more like an extension of the easier-to-obtain temporary licenses, industry insiders say.
"Someone who's applying for an annual license, they have to have full local authorization before the state can issue an annual license to them, and the local jurisdictions are not ready to do that. It's taking way longer than anyone anticipated," San Francisco attorney Nicole Neubert said.
"It's crucial for all of our clients, pretty much. Some people have some local entitlement, but it's a really small percentage that's ready to go."
For instance, Neubert said, it can take a year for companies to jump through all the necessary hoops to secure local authorization.
"They can easily take six, nine, 12 months to go through that process," she said.
It could take even longer, said Keith Hart, the president of KJH Consulting, a Sacramento government relations firm that represents several cannabis companies. Because the problem may persist into 2019, he said the Legislature "might have to create another provisional license" next summer.
Hart said it'll depend on how many cities and counties can process all their cannabis business permits and how many companies may still be waiting on licenses.
Details sketchy
Questions remain about how SB 1459 would correct the situation.
For example, it's unclear how a licensee would obtain a provisional permit, given the bill doesn't detail all the requirements, but those provisional license applicants would have already submitted their full annual license applications.
But Hart expects it'll be fairly easy since SB 1459 is designed to keep companies operational.
There's also no word yet from any of the three regulatory agencies on when they may begin issuing full annual permits, which originally were slated to be awarded this summer.
The business takeaway from the situation for both Neubert and Hart? California still has a long way to go before its market stabilizes.
"It's going to be very bumpy for at least a few more years," Neubert predicted. "This time next year, we'll be talking about things that people didn't anticipate or weren't in the statute that need to be fixed."
Hart added that the industry landscape could change dramatically come November, when at least 75 cannabis-related ballot measures will go before local voters in cities and counties across California.
The results could be dramatic, with regard to potential changes on local MJ taxes and business opportunities, according to Hart.
"I've been encouraging clients to not make any major decisions before November," he said. "Let's see what happens."
Some success stories
With all the upheaval in California's cannabis industry this year – new regulations, high tax rates, a booming illicit market – it's easy to forget that some fully legal companies are doing well.
Case in point: the Garden of Eden, in the Bay Area town of Hayward.
The shop has been open since 2003, making it one of the longest-running dispensaries in the state. Its operators threw a "grand reopening" party Sept. 14 after finishing a nine-month remodel that gave the store a major face-lift.
Garden of Eden already sees 800-1,200 customers daily just from foot traffic. The business is planning to open at least two more locations in early 2019, said Shareef El-Sissi, Garden of Eden's director of business development.
"We've probably grown 50% since January" on top-line revenue, El-Sissi told Marijuana Business Daily.
He said the typical sales breakdown is roughly:
60% marijuana flower.
30% disposable vaporizer cartridges.
10% "everything else," including edibles and topicals.
El-Sissi attributed the strong sales growth in part to a conscious business decision that Garden of Eden made before Jan. 1, when new state and local taxes kicked in: The company "split the difference" between the retailer's revenue and the customer.
He said that resulted in more customers not facing the kind of "sticker shock" consumers experienced at other California retail shops because of the new tax rates.
Garden of Eden will also open shops in Union City and Sunol in the second quarter of 2019, El-Sissi said, noting: "Southern Alameda County is basically a cannabis desert, and we're about to put two dispensaries in those areas."
"We have some acquisitions on the slate," he added. "We'll probably expand to five or six dispensaries by the end of 2019 and continue on a growth pattern like that."

The Government of Norway has contributed to the Inter-American Development Bank's (IDB) Transparency Fund since its inception in 2007, to help countries curb corruption and implement pro-transparency reforms in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).
In 2018, the government of Norway donated an additional $1,1 million.
Norway granted the initial $5M contribution to kick-off the Fund in 2007, and subsequently made two additional donations totaling approximately $7.5M.
Since its launch in 2007, the Transparency Fund has provided technical assistance grants to more than 50 projects worth over $18 million, benefiting 25 countries in LAC to date. The projects have supported government reform, regional dialogue, and policy research in the areas of open government, control systems, financial integrity, and natural resource governance.
Despite more than 20 years of application of international conventions – such as the Inter-American Convention against Corruption – corruption does not seem to have diminished. It is, however, now at the top of the policy agenda, as demonstrated by the recent declaration of the Summit of the Americas, powerfully titled "Democratic Governance against Corruption". Latin American countries face common challenges against which innovative practices and successful models from the region and beyond can provide interesting lessons. The IDB and the Transparency Fund are strategic partners of the ongoing process of institutional and legal strengthening that is taking place in LAC.
The Transparency Fund has been the main tool at the Bank's disposal to move forward the anti-corruption and transparency agenda. As shown in its recent evaluation, the Fund helped countries make remarkable progress in opening up governments and strengthening transparency, integrity and accountability in the management of public resources – thus saving LAC countries' public funds.
"Ten years ago, when we conceived the idea of this Fund, we envisaged something innovative to help countries pave the way for reforms that curb corruption and systematically instill transparency as a key principle in the management of public funds. The Fund has gone beyond that, becoming instrumental for the support of the IDB to initiatives focused on anti-money laundering, control and audit functions and conflicts of interest, among others," indicated Harald Tollan, Norway's Counsellor at the IDB.
The experience of Norway in the governance sector is an international best practice . Moreover, Norway, in specific areas, such as in the extractive sector, including its sovereign wealth fund, represents an invaluable source of expertise in supporting beneficiary countries. The country has provided a steady inspiration to the Fund by also extending its initial scope and including new areas of work, such as open government and tax transparency.
Highlights from projects financed by the Transparency Fund include helping three countries become compliant with the Extractives Industries Transparency Initiative, the main global initiative in extractives governance. Additionally, Paraguay and Costa Rica are launching an award-winning portal (MapaInversiones) to make public investments more transparent through the use of ICT.
The Fund's grants have played a critical role in driving integrity reforms and have mobilized over $1.4 billion in IDB loans in this sector. These include operations to strengthen Colombia's Office of the Inspector General, and to support the transparency and integrity agenda in Chile and Argentina. These loans represent long-term commitments from countries to work on transparency and anti-corruption in partnership with the IDB.
The Transparency Fund is also supported by the government of Canada and the Mastercard Corporation since 2014, while Italy joined alongside Sweden in December 2017. The IDB also contributed with a donation to the Fund in 2011.


These are American photographers and the surprise is that there's no mention of New Zealand photographers; even though Macpherson says that she is aware of, and looks closely at, the work done by New Zealand photographers, particularly the work about journeys around New Zealand and explorations of place and identity. What does that imply about NZ photographic culture, or Macpherson's understanding of that culture? Maybe Macpherson quietly references other NZ photographers, such as Morrison and Henderson, as well as Lawrence Aberhart and Peter Peryer.
Macpherson says that the body of work in Old New World is part of trying to understand her world and where she fits in it. In that sense photography--- as meaningful, sensuous, particular works of art---is a form of thinking and self-discovery. What this indicates is that though artworks are indeed objects, the truth-content of art is of the world while also offering critical reflections upon it.
I mention Macpherson's work here because when I was looking at the photographs in Old New World I wondered if there is similar work being done by contemporary Australian art photographers. I cannot recall any off hand. Certainly no photographer that I know of in Adelaide is working on such a project---exploring the way that the layers of time and history and development that sit within a townscape, and to photograph things within their everyday context.
Yet Australia as a place to be has been changing rapidly since the 1980s. So has its identity as a result of these changes. It is quite different from our remembered past because things change: buildings are demolished or their uses change or they have facelifts; towns can slowly die. These with their street and artworks are the public containers of our history and identify.

'Little Briar Rose' Is a Point-And-Click Adventure With Stunning Stained Glass Graphics, Out Now
Posted on November 17, 2016 November 17, 2016 by Rob Funnell
While the move towards further realism and detail in graphical design has given us some truly stunning games on iOS such as Infinity Blade 3 ($6.99) and Eisenhorn: Xenos ($5.99), sometimes imagination, creativity and innovation can trump pure power. Little Briar Rose ($2.99) is one such game – developers Elf Games Work have taken the extremely interesting approach of coating every element of the title with a stained glass window aesthetic design. This unique and audacious art direction, coupled with an expansive and immersive fairy-tale world to explore, culminates in a truly jaw-droppingly beautiful adventure game that stands out from similar point and click titles on the iPhone, and is available now on the App Store for $2.99.
Being based off the eponymous folktale by Brothers Grimm – which later served as the source material for the Sleeping Beauty story – Little Briar Rose has an emphasis on whimsical, ethereal charm in both the visual design and gameplay, and wears its heavy Disney influence on its sleeve. You star as one of a seemingly indefinite set of fearless princes, who are committed to save the princess and her cursed kingdom from evil forces. However, when the protagonist fails in their quest (in other words, when you fail on one of the many minigame puzzles), the next prince in the dynasty will continue the adventure, in a similar fashion to that of Infinity Blade ($5.99) or Reigns ($2.99). While Little Briar Rose will surely go down a treat with any fans of point and click adventures, even those disillusioned with the genre should give the game a look, if just for the stunning visual design. For more discussion on Little Briar Heart, and for any help on how to save the princess, be sure to head down to our forum thread.

Eyes on the Street: Universal City Ped Bridge Nearly Ready For Its Close-Up
Metro's new Universal City bridge will be finished in a month. Photos by Joe Linton/Streetsblog L.A.
Universal Studios is a month away from the April 7 grand opening for their new Harry Potter attraction "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter." CEO Phil Washington has pledged that Metro will serve Harry Potter fans by completing its $27 million pedestrian bridge connecting the Metro Red Line Universal City Station with Universal Studios.
The project, officially the Universal City/Studio City Station Pedestrian Bridge Project, crosses Lankershim Boulevard. It "[f]acilitates access to all 3 corners of Lankershim and Campo de Cahuenga intersection." That intersection, of course, has four intersections. The one corner that the bridge misses just happens to serve a half dozen bus lines. The bridge may make pedestrian crossings a little safer, but, by doing away with streetside foot traffic, it signals a wholesale surrender from making street-level Lankershim anything other than a car-choked stroad.
Last week, the overall structure of the bridge was looking nearly complete, but a lot of final construction tasks were still underway. More pictures after the jump.

It is not quite the Hogwarts Express, and SBLA's criticism, it is nonetheless good timing to see construction finishing in time to serve Red Line riders next month.

As the local media focuses on this morning's hearing on the NBC Universal Evolution project, there's another project that impacts the area.

Orange Line BRT Speed Improvements Caught In Inter-Agency Delays

Lately, a new pedestrian tunnel and faster bus speeds seemed imminent. These facilities would save time for the Orange Line's 30,000 daily riders. Earlier this week, I […]

Moroccan carpet confidential

KOURKOUDA, Morocco — It takes more than 20 pounds of raw wool and 60 days of handwork to fashion one of Morocco's famous carpets. The weavers in this village say it's hardly worth the effort.
"You can't give a damn about carpets anymore," said Rakia Nid Lchguer, 57, who, like many weavers in this country's remote south, spent a decade perfecting her art, beginning at age 6. "The market barely repays the cost of the wool," she said.
Morocco's vibrant rugs come in a variety of styles — from flat-woven hanbels to the fuzzy creations crafted by Nid Lchguer and her neighbors. The pieces fetch hundreds, sometimes thousands, of dollars on carpet shop floors in Marakesh, Fez and abroad.
The rug stores are as common to Moroccan cities as bright lights on Broadway, and the haggling done inside is a visitor's rite of passage. Hours can pass with merchants sipping tea, trading fibs with tourists about what the final price will be. Overpayment is the norm.
Yet middlemen ensure that little of that money finds it way back to villages like Kourkouda. While the World Bank estimates Moroccans make an average of $6 per day, in these arid hills south of the Atlas Mountains, that figure seems optimistic.
Seated on the cement floor of a home where she raised seven children, Nid Lchguer said immediate needs have sometimes forced her to sell a finished carpet for as little as $40. The raw materials cost her $33, she said.

While talking, she cleaned tufts of raw, ivory-colored wool by scraping it between two steel brushes. Her neighbor, Fadma Hassi, 65, stopped spinning yarn nearby and said, "That's if you get to sell it."
This time, the women have been lucky. Someone ordered on commission a plush carpet with roughly the same footprint as an American twin bed. With the help of a third neighbor, the weavers will split $50 three ways in exchange for an amount of labor that seems alien in a mechanized age.
The rug's warp alone — a continuous string forming the piece's vertical threads on the loom — will require hand-spinning a piece of yarn the length of 10 football fields. Among other tasks in the coming weeks, the women will hand-tie more than 100,000 knots no bigger than this lower-case o.
Not all Morocco's carpets are crafted from hand-spun wool in isolated homes. Some weavers work in small cooperatives, others in factories. Some get their wool pre-spun at the market, others even buy synthetics. But the artisans — the overwhelming majority of whom are women — share similar problems.
"The money is not going to these ladies, for sure," said Bouchra Hamelin of Al Akhawayn University, who teaches free marketing classes to Moroccan weavers and other artisans. "They don't know how to write, how to read. They don't have access to the internet so they don't have access to customers."
Instead, Hamelin said, men with trucks have access to the weavers. A middleman tours isolated villages and souks, buys low, drives to the cities, then sells high. "He is the person making the money," she said.
Women in some villages have formed cooperatives in a bid to bypass middlemen. An association of 88 weavers in Anzal, about 35 miles from Kourkouda, have been marketing their wares directly to tourists since 2007. Like all the weavers interviewed for this story, they speak a local language called Tachelhit, which predates Arabic's arrival to the region.
Even leaders of the group acknowledge that sales haven't been stellar. The association's treasurer, Zahara Ait Ali, said she's only sold four carpets since the group was formed — a typical number, group members said — for a total of about $300. Still, she said, working through an association is better than going to the souk alone and haggling with a carpet dealer.
"The professionals in Marrakesh, the people who work in the bazaars, they try to drive the prices down," she said. "In our region no one will speak out about low prices." It's hard to tell precisely how much of a cut the middlemen are taking. After all, concealing the wholesale price is the essence of the game. But a brief encounter with a traveling rug merchant named Mohammed Ait Tar offered a clue. Flagged down on a rutted mountain track, he showed off a load of carpets jammed to the ceiling of his tiny, diesel Citroen Berlingo.
He pulled out one plush, coffee-table sized carpet from a stack of rugs he said were woven nearby. What he did next underscored the warm hospitality visitors often encounter in this region, and also hinted at how little the piece must have cost him.
"Here," he said. "A gift."

In another initiative to give back to society, ProgressSoft approached the noble cause of supporting cancer patients in Jordan with their fight. This initiative was in cooperation with the Bishop's School for Boys and the King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF).
Under the patronage of H.R.H. Princess Dina Mired, the initiative was named "Run for Life" where students would run in laps around the school's playground, and each lap would constitute for a certain amount of money donated to KHCF.
ProgressSoft sponsored 100 students, and donated that total amount to KHCF, and furthermore it provided those students with custom-made t-shirts bearing the "Run for Life" logo and attended the event to encourage the student, and confirm its full support to the cause.

Not Enemies Forever
In spite of the best efforts of the players in the current Middle East peace process, today the Arab and Jewish nations still have difficulty coexisting peacefully. Yet they have not always been enemies. Indeed, for centuries Jews thrived in an Arab civilization.
Shortly after the death of Mohammed in A.D. 632, Arabs began conquering vast tracts of the known world. Soon they possessed North Africa, Arabia, Palestine, Persia, Sicily, southern Italy and much of Turkey and Spain. For the next few centuries, the Arab civilization was considerably more advanced than its European counterpart.
Bertrand Russell described the way the Jews flourished under the Arabs in his book History of Western Philosophy. After describing the persecution of Jews in Christian Europe, and the corresponding lack of Jewish cultural contributions, Russell continued:
"In Mohammedan countries, on the contrary, Jews at most times were not in any way ill treated. Especially in Moorish Spain, they contributed to learning…[Then, when] the Christians re-conquered Spain, it was largely the Jews who transmitted to them the learning of the Moors. Learned Jews, who knew Hebrew, Greek and Arabic, and were acquainted with the philosophy of Aristotle, imparted their knowledge to less learned schoolmen" (George Allen & Unwin Ltd., London, 1969, p. 324).
Europe's rediscovery, by Arabs and Jews, of many Greek texts led eventually to the Renaissance and the rise of European culture. Today Europeans, Arabs and Jews could gain much from cooperation. Unfortunately, crusades, persecutions and Jihads have been all too common in their history.
Nevertheless, in the coming reign of the Messiah, the Christ, the descendants of all three groups will learn to flourish in cooperation and peace.

Watch Low Perform Songs From Double Negative
With this recent performance, Low prove they're still as captivating a live act as ever.
Low's Double Negative is one of my favorite albums of 2018 so far (read my review). Furthermore, it's one of the best and most intriguing albums in the band's nearly three-decade-long career. With Double Negative, the slowcore pioneers don't evolve their sound so much as disintegrate it, running their trademark minimal, pristine arrangements through a barrage of abrasive, distorted electronics — and it works brilliantly.
At least, it works in the studio. But Low has always been a stellar live act, so how well does their new sonic direction, which relies so heavily on studio manipulation, translate to a live setting? Pretty well, as it turns out, going by this recent performance for The Current at St. Paul's Fitzgerald Theater.
The live versions of the Double Negative songs are uniformly excellent — consider the booming strains of "Quorum," the swirling storm of "Tempest," and Mimi Parker's haunting vocals on "Dancing and Blood" and "Fly" — and the band also performs material from older albums including 2015's Ones and Sixes, 2013's The Invisible Way, and 2005's The Great Destroyer.
"No Comprende"
"Plastic Cup"
"Always Up"
"Dancing and Blood"
"Always Trying to Work It Out"
"Poor Sucker"
"Nothing but Heart"
"Dancing and Fire"
"When I Go Deaf"
Note: The original version of this video was missing several minutes of audio and had other technical issues. This is the updated version with the corrected audio.

I am a typical Korean-American housewife, who struggles daily to cook for her family. I decided to make this blog in hopes that perhaps my recipes and tips might help others who enjoy cooking Korean food. I spent half of my life in Seoul, Korea specifically in gangnam and the other in the US, now residing in New York. Growing up in Seoul as well as my bi-yearly visits to Korea helps the "authenticity" of my recipes. At the same time, understanding frustrations of young American cooks who struggle with various obstacles making Korean dishes from finding easy recipes to buying good ingredients gives me a valuable perspective for this blog. One approach I decided to make is to simplify Korean cooking as much as possible. More importantly, in many of my posts as you will see, I make multiple dishes that taste like a totally different dish using only one main ingredient and/or sauce. This not only simplifies the daily cooking process but also reduces wastes of leftovers, ingredients and most importantly stress.
I started cooking every day since 2006 when my mother collapsed from a major stroke. I quit my job in the arts and became her full-time caretaker. At the time, my dear friend, Dr. Aether who practices Korean medicine advised me that one of the best things I could do was to cook for my mother every day. Cooking two to three meals on a daily basis at age 27 was daunting to say the least. However, he convinced me by saying that the expression "soul food" shows how important food is for not only the body but for the soul; nourishment and healing for the body and soul. Simple as that, I was to cook for my mother whether it tasted good or bad, and that is how my struggle with daily cooking began. I am happy to say after almost 7 years, my mother is much healthier as well as the rest of the family. Actually there are times when I think my husband benefits the most as he is well known to enjoy a good meal.
Please feel free to contact me at gangnamkitchen@gmail.com.
I always thought I'd focus on Korean cooking one day and that day has arrived – in pursuit of my mother's health. Bless you for posting simplified Korean recipes. Your blog is a godsend. I have a feeling I'll be visiting your blog for other recipes as my mother's appetite returns. Believe me, your efforts are very much appreciated! The oxtail soup recipe alone has made a big difference. I love how you documented that simple recipe with step by step photos. Again, much thanks!
I just stumbled upon your blog after Googling "Anchovy broth" and read your amazing story. Your mom is very lucky!
Though it looks the blog has been dormant for a while, I hope you continue to share your wisdom and insight on Korean cooking.
