Jew of the Week: Sigmund Freud
The Father of Psychoanalysis
Sigismund Schlomo Freud (1856-1939) was born in what is today the Czech Republic to Galician-Jewish parents. His father, a once-Hasidic wool merchant, brought the family to Vienna where Freud grew up. A natural academic, he absorbed his studies effortlessly and became proficient in 8 languages. His favourite were the works of Shakespeare, which he read his entire life and are said to have greatly influenced his theories. He became a doctor and worked for several years in hospitals, asylums, and clinics before starting his own practice specializing in nervous disorders. At the same time, he married the daughter of Hamburg's chief rabbi and they would go on to have 6 kids. After learning hypnosis in Paris, Freud found that a certain patient was able to open up to him while hypnotized and in the process of talking out her problems, brought about her own relief. Freud realized that patients need only be guided to speak freely, with no need for hypnosis. He also found that much of their issues were reflected in their dreams. By 1896, he abandoned hypnosis entirely and created "psychoanalysis". From his own experiences and that of his patients, he put together a series of new theories about the mind, emotions, consciousness, religion, dreams, and sexuality. He published a range of books and papers, and delivered lectures each Saturday night. On Wednesdays, he led a small discussion group with 5 other physicians, all Jews. The Wednesday Psychological Society would evolve into the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society, and spawn many other such groups across Europe and the world. Freud would go down in history as the founding father of psychoanalysis. His ideas inspired a proliferation of new literature in psychology, philosophy, science, and sociology. Despite the rise of the Nazis and the burning of his books, Freud was determined to stay in Austria until he was finally convinced by colleagues that his life was in danger. After much difficulty, he escaped to London (though 4 of his older sisters could not, and perished in the Holocaust). He continued his work, analyzing patients and writing more of his ground-breaking ideas. After battling an oral cancer for nearly two decades – a direct result of his smoking addiction – he reached a critical state of illness and a decision was made together with doctors and Freud's daughter to end his life. After several days of high-morphine doses, Freud passed away on Yom Kippur.
Someone else's material needs are my spiritual responsibility.

Jew of the Week: Franz Kafka
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) was born near Prague to Yiddish-speaking parents, the grandson of a shochet (kosher meat slaughterer). His Jewish education culminated with his bar mitzvah, after which he went to the prestigious Altstädter Deutsches Gymnasium. He enrolled to study chemistry in university, but quickly switched to law. After graduating, he worked for various insurance companies – a job that he despised, but which allowed him to make a living. The little time that he had off work he would spend writing. Kafka composed dozens of stories, novels (most of them unfinished), essays, letters and diaries. Ninety percent of these he burned. In his will, he instructed his friend Max Brod to destroy the remainder of his writings. Brod ignored the request, and published them instead. Thus, Kafka was virtually unknown in his own lifetime, but became hugely famous after his death. It is believed that there are still thousands of unpublished Kafka works. He is considered by many to be the greatest writer of the 20th century, and some of his writings have been ranked among the most influential of that century. He has inspired the adjective "kafkaesque", and has an asteroid named after him. Besides writing, Kafka was an avid swimmer, hiker, and rower, studied alternative medicine, and was a vegetarian. After once seeing a Yiddish play, he immersed himself in Jewish study. In addition to Yiddish, Kafka spoke German, Czech, French, and studied both Hebrew and classical Greek. Towards the end of his life he intended to immigrate to Israel. This wish did not come to be, as Kafka succumbed to tuberculosis at a young age. His three sisters perished in the Holocaust. For what would be his 130th birthday today, he is honoured with a Google Doodle.
Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.

Host and geographic structure of endophytic and endolichenic fungi at a continental scale.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Endophytic and endolichenic fungi occur in healthy tissues of plants and lichens, respectively, playing potentially important roles in the ecology and evolution of their hosts. However, previous sampling has not comprehensively evaluated the biotic, biogeographic, and abiotic factors that structure their communities. METHODS: Using molecular data we examined the diversity, composition, and distributions of 4154 endophytic and endolichenic Ascomycota cultured from replicate surveys of ca. 20 plant and lichen species in each of five North American sites (Madrean coniferous forest, Arizona; montane semideciduous forest, North Carolina; scrub forest, Florida; Beringian tundra and forest, western Alaska; subalpine tundra, eastern central Alaska). KEY RESULTS: Endolichenic fungi were more abundant and diverse per host species than endophytes, but communities of endophytes were more diverse overall, reflecting high diversity in mosses and lycophytes. Endophytes of vascular plants were largely distinct from fungal communities that inhabit mosses and lichens. Fungi from closely related hosts from different regions were similar in higher taxonomy, but differed at shallow taxonomic levels. These differences reflected climate factors more strongly than geographic distance alone. CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides a first evaluation of endophytic and endolichenic fungal associations with their hosts at a continental scale. Both plants and lichens harbor abundant and diverse fungal communities whose incidence, diversity, and composition reflect the interplay of climatic patterns, geographic separation, host type, and host lineage. Although culture-free methods will inform future work, our study sets the stage for empirical assessments of ecological specificity, metabolic capability, and comparative genomics.

Senator Feinstein Announces Support for DREAM Act
By nakasec March 31, 2006 No Comments
On Thursday, February 23, 2006, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) announced that she will once again become a co-sponsor to the "Development, Relief, and Education Act for Alien Minors Act" (introduced in the Senate on November 18, 2005).
"We are pleased to hear Senator Feinstein's continued support of the DREAM Act," Eun Sook Lee, executive director of the National Korean American Service and Education Consortium said, "Her involvement in this issue is great news to students and to our communities. The Senator's support is particularly important as California is a state made of immigrants and immigrant students are a critical part of our state and nation's future."
If passed, the DREAM Act will undoubtedly open up doors that were previously shut to undocumented students. As Dae Joong Yoon, executive director of the Korean Resource Center explains, "Each year, 65,000 talented and gifted youth graduate from U.S. high schools and face insurmountable barriers to achieve their goals of higher education and legal employment. It is our obligation as a society that all young people should be given a fair and equal chance at higher education and employment opportunities."
Please find the attached press release from Senator Dianne Feinstein:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Howard Gantman or Scott Gerber
http://feinstein.senate.gov/
Senator Feinstein to Co-Sponsor DREAM Act
– Legislation would remove barriers to education for many young immigrants –
Washington DC – U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today announced that she will sign on as a co-sponsor of "The Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act," which would provide qualified undocumented high school students who wish to attend college or serve in the armed forces an opportunity to adjust to a lawful status and pursue these goals.
The legislation, known as "The DREAM Act" is sponsored by Senators Richard Durbin (D-IL) Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.) and Richard Lugar (R-Ind.).
"The DREAM Act offers bright and highly motivated students a real incentive to become responsible and valued members of our society," Senator Feinstein said. "I believe it is in the national interest to provide talented students who have clearly embraced the American dream the incentive to take the path toward being a responsible, contributing, law abiding member in our civic society. And this bill would give undocumented high school students who wish to attend college or serve in the armed forces an opportunity to adjust to a lawful status and pursue these goals."
Specifically, The DREAM Act would:
· Provide undocumented students the opportunity to gain conditional permanent resident status provided they:
(a) have lived in the United States for at least 5 years and were under the age of 16 at the time of entry;
(b) have graduated from high school or have been accepted to a college or institution of higher education;
(c) are of good moral character;
(d) are not deportable on account of a criminal conviction, alien smuggling or document fraud.
· Permit undocumented students to convert their conditional status to that of a lawful permanent resident provided that they do one of the following:
(a) obtain a diploma from a junior college or trade school;
(b) complete at least two years of a bachelor's or graduate program;
(c) join the Armed Forces and if discharged, be honorably discharged; or
(d) perform part or full time volunteer community service under the direction of the USA Freedom Corps or with an entity eligible to receive funds from the Combined Federal Campaign.
To become a lawful permanent resident, the applicants must remain persons of good moral character, not be a public charge during the period of conditional residence, or violate any of the criteria initially required to obtain conditional resident status.
In California, many of the students who would benefit from the legislation are children of parents who have already been granted amnesty and are waiting for their adjustment of status applications to be adjudicated. Others are children of migrant farm workers. The majority of the students consider California their home and are expected to become citizens.
"The DREAM Act does not offer amnesty, nor is it an entitlement," Senator Feinstein said. "I believe we should give these talented students a chance to succeed."

Frog are a two person guitar band from Queens, New York. You're going to love them.
(Photo by Andrew Piccone)
Frog is a two person band made up of Dan Bateman (Vocals / Guitars) and Tom White (Drums / Synth / Vocals) that lives in Queens, NYC. Frog writes exuberant pop songs mostly using electric guitars, keyboards, glockenspiels, police sirens, and primitive drums. Lyrically, their songs contain nods to olympic athletes, Washington Irving characters, nervous breakdowns, biblical figures displaced into lewd modern times, and the ups and downs of living in the swamp. Their debut full-length was self-recorded inside an old non-functional bowling alley underneath a coffee shop in Astoria, NY and was mastered by Gabe Liberti.
Kind of Blah, the debut full-length LP from Frog, is made up of 11 songs (and one secret track) that range from frenzied screams of frozen guitar pop ('Fucking'), to ballads about depression era starlets ('Judy Garland'), to whispered self-searching kazoo solos (secret track 'KIND OF BLAH'). The record aims to engage modern recording and composition ideas with 50's era arrangement techniques while utilizing minimalist instrumentation and idiosyncratic production methods. The record was praised and supported by CLASH, DIY Mag, TLOBF, The 405, GoldFlakePaint, Artrocker, BBC Radio 1 (Huw Stephens), BBC 6 Music (Steve Lamacq/Gideon Coe/Tom Ravenscroft), BBC Scotland (Roddy Hart) and many more.

NUNDA — A pair of Red Raider wrestlers stand alone atop Livingston County.
On Saturday, Hornell's Mason Drew and Nolan McGregor battled through their brackets and emerged on top at the end of the day, claiming titles at the annual LCAA Wrestling Championships hosted by Keshequa.
It was an all-Red Raider showdown at 99 pounds, as McGregor and teammate Breydon Drew each advanced to the finals to guarantee a Hornell champion. McGregor gained the upper hand early, pinning Drew in 1:14 to take home the title.
Mason Drew, meanwhile, was dominant at 120 pounds. Drew cruised to a 13-2 major decision over Ryleigh Duryea (Letchworth) in the finals to take his place atop the podium.
Owen House added a runner-up finish for Hornell at 138 pounds, dropping a close 8-5 decision to Andrew Englert of LeRoy.
Dansville/Keshequa had multiple LCAA champions in the upper weight classes. Karam Ali took down Nick Hall (Avon-Geneseo) in the finals, 7-4, to cap off a strong performance. Teammate Shane Crandall followed at 220 pounds, pinning Jadyn Kurtz (Avon-Geneseo) in 0:48 to add another title.
The Dansville/Keshequa squad also got multiple runner-up finishes. Trey Learn was second at 113 pounds, falling by pin in 2:38 to Isacc Crane (Caledonia-Mumford). Levi Howe dropped a tight 5-4 decision to Dan Cook (Avon-Geneseo).
Ryan Damboise, on the Wayland-Cohocton side of the merge with Livonia, claimed a championship at 182 pounds. Damboise won a thriller, edging Blake Wolfanger (Perry) 3-2 in 3OT (ultimate tiebreaker).
David Magin won the 285 pound title with a 3-2 decision over Ryan Binder (Pavilion/York).

Q: what is the meaning of probability distribution function? what is the meaning of probability distribution function? I am struggling to understand it can anyone help me please

A: *

*For a continuous case:

A cumulative probability distribution function p is a function which takes as argument a realization x of a random variable X and outputs the probability that X can be less or equal to this exact value, given that X is distributed according to p.
A probability density function is intuitively how likely a realization x will come from this local sample of X compared to other local samples of X.

*

*For a discrete case:

A probability distribution function returns the probability of X == x, which is positive on all the support of the function, i.e., all possible x's. While in the continuous case the probability of any given x is zero.

PRAXIS: Remembering Karl Marx
[For a change, let us try something philosophical. Two hundred years ago today, May 5, 1818, Karl Marx - a German philosopher, economist, historian, political theorist, sociologist, journalist and revolutionary socialist - was born to a middle class family in Trier, Germany. His ideas later caught fire and revolutionized the terrains of thought. Some people are quite afraid of him that even a mention of his name is anathema. His name is also used by dictators to scare the hell out of critics and ordinary people. But many others are willing to die for his ideals and vision. And also kill others in his name! In the following days, to commemorate his birth, let me share with you my perspectives on one of his significant ideas - "praxis" - which has influenced philosophical-sociological-theological thinking at least in the last 100 years.]
From the Left Hegelians to Marx
The Left Hegelian movement exemplified in the works of Cieszkowski, Bauer, Ruge and Hess was crucial in conscientizing the German intellectual circles to the problems of the German State once given philosophical legitimacy by Hegel. They rallied behind a single banner and battle cry – praxis!
It was this group that provided the context for the young Marx's early discourses. But radical as the group's rhetoric was, it nevertheless remained stuck in mere theoretical criticism with some political intents. It did not, in any way, metamorphose into a real political force fighting for social change.
The Left Hegelians were never real revolutionaries effecting forward-looking tactical courses of action. In fact, Lobkowicz considers them to be "nothing more than a small group of eccentrics with an oddly exaggerated self-confidence" whose illusions consist in the belief that their relentless criticism can transform social reality.
And were it not for Marx who later appropriated and pushed forward their idealistic revolutionary discourse, "the Left Hegelian movement would have remained an interesting, but hardly important, curiosity in the arsenal of philosophical radicalism in European thought."[1]
Did Marx say something about "praxis"?
The search for the concept of praxis in Marx's work itself is far from easy. Though his whole philosophy has oftentimes been dubbed as the 'philosophy of praxis'.
Antonio Labriola (1843-1904), an Italian Marxist, inspired by the Theses on Feuerbach, first interpreted Marxism as the 'philosophy of praxis'. It was from his example that the more famous and influential Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) also elaborated a 'philosophy of praxis' in Marx. [2]
To our surprise, Marx presents no such extensive treatment of the concept. "As far as it seems evident, there is nowhere in his writings anything resembling a definition of 'Praxis'; in fact, considering how central this notion is to his thought, one, time and again, is astonished to see how, relatively seldom Marx uses it."[3]
This then leaves it open to varied interpretations, the first direction of which was given by Engel's speech at Marx's graveside when he described Marx as having discovered two 'fundamental laws': the law of history (i.e., theory of historical materialism) and the law of society (i.e., theory of surplus value).[4]
"Marx is the discoverer of the fundamental law according to which human history moves and develops itself, a law so simple and self-evident that its simple enunciation is almost sufficient to secure assent. Not enough with that, Marx also discovered the law [which] has created our actual state of society with its great class-division of capitalists and wages-labourers, the law according to which that society has become organized, has grown until it has almost outgrown itself, and according to which it will ultimately perish."
Portraying Marx as the father of 'scientific' and materialist interpretation of history and political economy, Engels thus popularized a version of 'praxis' as the ultimate criterion of truth. He writes: "the truth of the pudding is in the eating"[5] – the corollary of which would be 'experiment' and 'industry'. It is this line of interpretation which goes down in history as 'orthodox Marxism' developed into dialectical materialism by Plekhanov, Kautsky, Lenin and many others in our time.[6]
But it has to be considered that during these times many of Marx's early writings were not yet available.[7] It is these early works, however, which are crucial to Marx's discussion of praxis.
Leaving aside for the moment the long-standing debate on the value of these works within the whole Marxist corpus, we will explore the main lines of these early writings in order to help us clarify Marx's concept of praxis.
[To be continued.]

The Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts (also called Paris Manuscripts of 1844) were only discovered in 1932 and the full version of The German Ideology only saw print in the same year. The draft manuscript of Das Kapital, more commonly called the 'Grundrisse' (Grundrisse der Kritik der politischen Ökonomie), was first printed in 1939. All these happened long after 'orthodox Marxism' had crystallized its theory of 'dialectical materialism'. For a historical treatment of Marx's works, see, among others, P.

France's Accorhotels Says Planning Thailand, Myanmar Expansion
France's AccorHotels aims to open 17 more hotels in Thailand including eight in Bangkok plus another six in Myanmar through 2019, to take advantage of rising tourism in Southeast Asia, an executive said.
The Paris-based group, which runs 60 hotels in Thailand and three in Myanmar, expects Bangkok to be its biggest Asia-Pacific market by 2019, Patrick Basset, chief operating officer for Southeast and Northeast Asia, told reporters.
Basset said Thai revenue growth would slow to around 10 percent this year from 21 percent in 2015, when tourists returned following a drop the year earlier when the country was engulfed in political unrest that culminated in a military coup.
Likewise, Thailand's hotel occupancy will rise as much as 4 percentage points this year compared with 9 percentage points last year, he said.
Tourism makes up about 10 percent of Thailand's gross domestic product and is one of few bright spots in an economy growing at a slower rate than regional peers. Visitors reached a record 29.9 million last year and could hit 32 million this year, the government has said.
AccorHotels operates upscale, mid-range and budget hotels under the Pullman, Novotel and ibis brands, with 13,944 rooms in Thailand and plans for another 4,044 rooms by 2019, Basset said.
The expansion comes after US peer Marriott International Inc and Thai partner TCC Group Co Ltd last month said they would open seven hotels in Thailand by 2020.
AccorHotels also aims to renovate rooms with budget of 750,000 baht ($21,404.11) per room over the next five years, Basset said.
On Myanmar, Basset said growth is likely to be strong due to a low base, even as hotel numbers tripled over the past three years and revenue per available room fell 20 percent last year. (Reuters)

Why is Congresswoman Barbara Lee missing from that roster of AUMF re-writers????
She was the ONLY PERSON WITH THE COURAGE TO VOTE NOT NO BUT HELL NO WAY BACK THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which lends credence to the allegation that there's no substantive difference between Republicans and Democrats. And, as with all national security matters, the challenge is how to engage the American public. If that doesn't happen, it'll be the usual Washington circle-the-drain event with a supine legislature and mainstream (corporate) press as by-standers.

At this point, it's safe to say that we're in the midst of a bonafide folk music revival. Things started strumming last year with new albums from Angel Olsen, Vashti Bunyan, Weyes Blood, and Grouper. Barely a week into 2015, we have Joni Mitchell starring in a Saint Laurent ad and fresh projects on the way from two new stars on the circuit, Jessica Pratt and Natalie Prass. For her part, Nashville's Prass, a former member of **Jenny Lewis'**s touring band, evokes the classic, confessional songwriting and warm, acoustic studio sounds that her city is known for—you could picture Dusty Springfield singing these tracks if she were around in 2015 and still on a Tennessee kick.
Even if "My Baby Don't Understand Me," from her forthcoming self-titled album, could have been written at any time between now and, say, 1969, that doesn't make the horn instrumentals and the emotion of its lyrics any less urgent. That's what the folk style of songwriting is so perfect at conveying, after all: a sense of intimacy, reflection, and immediacy. "I wrote the chorus of the song in tears on my boyfriend's piano immediately after a fight. I later finished the song with an incredible artist, Peter Barbee, emailed it to my boyfriend, [and] we broke up shortly after I sent it," Prass explains in an email. "He used this song as an example of why we needed to end, and that might possibly haunt me forever. Note to self: When a relationship is on the rocks, but you want to work it out on your end, maybe don't send songs like this." Take a listen, and preorder the album, out January 27, on her label Spacebomb's site.

Damn it all. I was writing a link round-up about all the to-and-fro in the CISPA sausage-making and all the good news I'd heard, when I got the news — Mike Rogers (R-MI) got it put to a last-second rush vote at the end of the day and it passed as-is, rejecting all proposed amendments, scuttling everything I had written.
[I]t would usher in a new era of information sharing between companies and government agencies — with limited oversight and privacy safeguards. The House Rules committee yesterday rejected a series of modestly pro-privacy amendments, which led a coalition of civil-liberties groups to complain that "amendments that are imperative won't even be considered" in a letter today.
What made CISPA so controversial is a section saying that, "notwithstanding any other provision of law," companies may share information with Homeland Security, the IRS, the NSA, or other agencies. By including the word "notwithstanding," CISPA's drafters intended to make their legislation trump all existing federal and state laws, including ones dealing with wiretaps, educational records, medical privacy, and more.
The White House has outright stated that advisors would tell the President to veto the bill should it pass without those now-rejected safeguards in place. Granted, I don't have a lot of faith that Obama's administration is necessarily on the side of the angels on this one, but at least there's some pretense that they are trying to do right by us common folk. Maybe, MAYBE, Obama will kill this bill. Then again, he probably won't want to look soft on cyberterrorism, so I'm sure the last vestiges of privacy will be signed away in due course.
Previous coverage at my blog — you know, in case you're curious as to just how horrible this is.
Edit: Right, right, it has to pass the senate too. So there's two hurdles for it to clear yet.
They didn't reject all proposed amendments. They kept one that made it worse.
Oh bloody hell. Which one was that?!
I tend to think that more often than not, the designed-for-gridlock system of the US government does more harm than good (see: debt ceiling debate). But this is a case where I'm glad to have it.
Should actually have five hurdles left: The Senate, a conference committee (if there are two different bills or sets of ammendments), The House and Senate again (if it goes to committee), and the veto pen.
– That guy looks interesting.
– Someone might get hurt.
– Think of the children!
* Oops, BoingBoing linked that same TechDirt article.
I hope Obama ISN'T on the side of the angels. Constantly watching everything you do and hoping to catch you doing something wrong so that you can be eternally punished for your own good is one of that sides trademarks.
Not only is he not on the side of the angles, some circles have said that he has been even worse than Bush when it comes to privacy and de facto spying on everyone. Between his justice department stances and treatment of whistle blowers, I will not be voting for president this fall.
This would not be the first horrible bill that Obama promised to veto if an amendment wasn't added, then signed it anyway, like last year's National Defense Authorization Act.
I never for one second believed he cared about privacy. Remember on Oct 1, 09, when he spoke at the UN about the need for laws to protect religion from being insulted? In the best case he was pandering but still might sign a bill like that. In the worst case he believes it.
#9 Brony – I am guessing that your are being very specific in your application of "privacy" and primarily mean searches (electronic or otherwise)? If you use a broader definition which includes the Griswold v. Conn. & Roe v. Wade privacy, Obama looks a lot better than the previous administration to me.
@10: The difference between this and NDAA is that the NDAA was amended to address the White House's stated concerns (its concerns weren't about violating civil rights, but about limits on the WH's power to violate civil rights). I'm much more hopeful about this: we're close enough to November that Obama doesn't want to piss off Progressives any more than he already has. Losing the Left-wing base will cost him the election (if he loses the Left-wing base – lots of us are getting really sick of voting for the lesser of two evils, especially when the Dems refuse to run a real primary to address Obama's virulent corporatism and erosion of civil rights).
Only problem there is that CISPA is not an abortion bill. The outlook is grim indeed.
John Horstman: we're close enough to November that Obama doesn't want to piss off Progressives any more than he already has.
He's planning to ram through a secretly-compiled free trade bill that stands to (among other wonderfulness) effectively prohibit any new environmental or labor protections across a large swath of the industrialized world, right on the eve of the election. What does that tell you about his willingness to piss off progressives?

Golden Graine is a play off of my last name and slang for migraine ('graine). My personal mission is "Living a Fulfilled Life with Chronic Migraine & Pain." Through this blog, I want to share my experiences with you and for you to share too! I work hard to have, what I consider, a pretty amazing life. It's not easy living life with chronic pain and intractable migraine attacks. Writing, storytelling, advocating and educating are important to me. I realize I don't know it all. So I encourage feedback, I want to hear and share your stories, I want to commiserate with daily struggles, but also celebrate victories together, no matter how small.
Whether it's through video blogs, tutorials, personal musings, sharing resources, chronicling my never-ending insurance woes or posting pictures (both good and bad), Golden Graine will serve as my way to reach those who live in any type of chronic pain to feel like they are heard, understood and supported.
I worked for 15 years in the community banking industry before my episodic Migraine disease became a chronic, everyday occurrence in 2011. After several failed attempts to reverse the cycle, this disabling disease left me unable to return to my beloved job. I instinctively turned to writing, a hobby of mine that I can trace back to a second-grade diary.
I joined the writing team at Migraine.com to share my new-found obstacles with the 36 million Americans who suffer from migraines. You can still find new content from me on the largest online migraine community, which has 500,000 social media hits each week! After several years, I'm surprised people outside of my family reads what I write.
I've expanded my writing to reach different audiences with similar messages through Pain Pathways Magazine, American Massage Therapy Association, National Pain Report, INvisible Project, The Mighty, Medium.com and XO Jane. Writing has given me a purpose in a crappy situation. I'm overwhelmed with the response of those who connect with my experience.
Archer & Me sporting our Fighting Brains hats.
A native of West Virginia, I moved in 2016 from Washington, DC to Santa Monica, CA. My long-term boyfriend is a native Californian and we had the opportunity move to the Golden Coast.
I love music, concerts and singing (having sung the National Anthem at several professional sports games). I am passionate about animals and have a special place in my heart for greyhounds. I get a high off the cathartic feeling of connecting with my body through yoga, which is normally rebelling against me. The beach soothes my soul and I am in heaven with a view of the ocean and mountains from my balcony.
I love the laughter of my friends' babies. I engage in my family's home wine-making efforts from vine to bottle. My partner in crime is a never-ending inspiration to me to keep searching for new ways to manage my health. I recognize that I have an amazing support system, which is a luxury, not every chronic patient has.
I'm a member of the American Headache and Migraine Alliance (AHMA), National Headache Foundation and a proud Ambassador and Advocate for the US Pain Foundation. I've been on several patient panels about "Patient-Centered Clinical Trials," which is an area I want to help in changing the way pharmaceutical companies engage with the end user...us! I've spoken to medical students at Johns Hopkins University about life with a chronic illness and gave a presentation on Migraine.com's Migraine in America study during Miles for Migraine's patient education day (see video here).
I participate in lobbying efforts to raise awareness for Migraine research through the Annual Headache on the Hill program. In October 2016, I met a lifetime goal of mine and ran a 5K for migraine research with the Miles for Migraine Foundation, also raising the 2nd highest in donations! I look forward to many more races in the future. In June 2017, I was a recipient of the Association of Migraine Disorders' Impact Award.
I believe in a balance of medication, self-healing measures such as yoga and deep-breathing, and other alternative measures to manage my chronic disease. I'm willing to try cutting edge treatments but believe in deep research before I decide to talk to my doctor about a new therapy.
I'm available for speaking engagements, brainstorming, patient advocacy work, stomping on Capitol Hill, raising migraine and chronic pain awareness and panel participation in conference settings. Use the Contact page to send me proposals.
I am NOT a doctor, I only play one on the internet (just kidding!).
Connect with me! I try incredibly hard to respond (depending on my health).

Stop & Shop President Mark McGowan is Stepping Down
Hernando Ramírez-Santos 4 weeks ago News Leave a comment
Mark McGowan, Stop & Shop President, announced his decision to leave the organization after 30 years, but at the company's request, he will remain with Ahold Delhaize USA through year-end, to ensure a seamless transition. Gordon Reid, President of Giant Food, will become the new President of Stop & Shop.
Reid will begin transitioning to this new role in the coming weeks, and officially assume the role in late July. Ira Kress, SVP, Operations for Giant Food, has been appointed as interim President of Giant Food, said Ahold Delhaize USA in a press release.
Stop & Shop is Ahold Delhaize's largest U.S. brand with 415 stores. Its other local brands are Food Lion, Giant Food, GIANT/MARTIN'S and Hannaford.
Last April, Stop & Shop's 31,000 associates in New England went out on strike for 11 days, affecting 246 stores. A Stop and Shop spokeswoman told the Boston Globe that McGowan's decision to leave the company had no relation to the strike.
"Mark McGowan has had a tremendous impact for the Ahold Delhaize USA brands, as well as the communities they serve, and we thank him for his 30-years of tireless service. Under his leadership, Stop & Shop has built a strong foundation for transformation and expanded success that continues through our 'Reimagine Stop & Shop' initiative," said Kevin Holt, Chief Executive Officer of Ahold Delhaize USA. "As Mark transitions, I have full confidence that Gordon Reid is the right leader to continue this transformation by repositioning the business for future success and rebuilding customer loyalty."

McGowan career started in 1991 as a manager trainee at Stop & Shop. "It's been an honor and privilege to lead the Stop & Shop brand. I'm grateful for our associates who are incredibly dedicated to serving our customers every day, and I'm extremely proud of all that we have accomplished together. As Stop & Shop embarks on the next phase of its transformation, now is the right time for me to make this change," McGowan said in a statement.
Gordon Reid currently serves as President of Giant Food, which has 165 stores in the greater Washington, D.C., area. Reid joined Giant Food, an Ahold Delhaize USA company, in 2013 and has more than 35 years of international retail experience, having served in a variety of management roles at Boots, A.S. Watson Group and The Dairy Farm Group before joining Giant Food.
Reid is active in the community and serves as a member of the USO Washington-Baltimore Executive Board, Capital Area Food Bank Board and a member of the Partnership for a Healthier America. He holds a bachelor's of science in pharmacy from Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, U.K. and a master's degree in business administration from Nottingham University Business School in the U.K.
"We are excited for Gordon to join the Stop & Shop brand," added Holt. "Gordon is an excellent leader of people, with a strong focus on serving customers, engaging associates and supporting local communities. During his time at Giant Food, the brand has successfully grown sales and market share, and has strong associate engagement results."

I believe there is a True You which you incarnated this time for you to achieve, as well as also working to make good any negative scripts from the past. Indeed, there is an akashic record which holds the details of our past lives, and offers sense of a blueprint of whom we were born to become and achieve in this life.
My Magical Will Course has 4 Modules. It starts with meeting your True Self through vision work, and then the further modules offer ways of sustaining and building the connection to your True Self, including through any testing period that may follow.
Why have I created this Magical Will Course?
Recently, I have been gifted two experiences of contacting the 'healed me', my True Self, the first experience through vision, then the second experience through feeling energies from rocks in sacred places in the West of Ireland where I live.
I felt these two experiences were intense and powerfully healing, in respect of my own life issues. Unless we heal these sorts of wounds, then we will be held back from the full expression of the accomplishment we incarnated to express.
So, for Module 1: Vision Creation, you read the presentation document, then listen to the audio for module 1 and do the Journey it talks you through: the Vision Creation Journey.
You do the journey and then let me know how you got on. I reply to you, cross-referring to insights from your Vedic and also Western psychodynamic and evolutionary astrology, and at that point I send you module 2.
Optional Extra Module 5: Completing Past Life journey or journeys. I send you an audio. You do the journey. You share your results with me. I reply having cross-referred to your astrology. See details of my Past Life Course here.
Vedic Astrology has immense offering to this process, just as one example, it has a Divisional Chart (Varga Chart) for each area of our life. The Varga Chart about our 'accomplishments in this life' is the D24 Chaturvimshamsha. My D24 chart is all about the creation of beauty, but held back by weakness and a wound to value. Fear. As another example, Vedic Astrology, when used for Incarnational Life Purpose and Destiny declares the impact of past lives and the thrust of our incarnational goals this time.
Western Astrology when used psychotherapeutically offers definition of our psychological self, out subpersonalities, our nature v. nurture issues. And when used for Evolutionary Astrology declares the psychological impact of past lives.
If we have been denied or oppressed, by our parents, family, religion, culture or society, we will feel cut off from knowledge of, and connection to, our True Self.
And if we have been cut off from connection to our true self, we will be cut off also from our Inspiration and from God.
More than that we will be cut off from our Body, from the Earth and from the created Universe.
In consequence, we will live our earlier years (but hopefully not all of our life) in denial. And we will feel unacknowledged shame about that.
And this cut-offness, can manifest as inauthentic talk, rage, hurtfulness to others, self-harming scripts, scapegoating, denial, deception, relationships failure, being the glove that fits others' hands (or by compensation: the inflated self), falseness and embracing unreal energies/pathways that we think will sustain us.
But we may die inside. We may be denied the fruits of our talents, accomplishments and the fruits of our efforts. We will be denied beauty and the enjoyment of fulfilment.
Inside we will be left to grieve with ashes, desolation, addictions. We might pass out the pain to others. We may have false friends and enemies.
We might act out our Shadow, indeed in ways that may be hidden by us and unacknowledged.
If we are to manifest spiritual victory on the Battlefield of Life, we have to systematically tear shreds of our ego-conditioning away. This hard process we must face if we are to lighten the density that still resides within our DNA, in any dysfunctional upbringing that we may have had, and in the matter and substance of everything that exists around us.
When we enact our Shadow, we have the capacity to cause havoc and ruin, the results of which can last lifetimes, and this kernel of destruction lies deeply buried in our shadow. We have to learn to see how our Shadow takes over in ourself – and heal this.
And so, this Magical Will Course seeks to develop connection to our True Self, and to ways of sustaining that connection and keeping it alive.
The Course aim is to use vision and magical will and skills to put ourselves and our life into connection to beauty, energy, health and connection to our True Self, genuine connection to others, and to the Earth and the universe, the cosmos. The course aims to offer methods to sustain that connection, to avoid loss of that connection, to avoid your vision and inspiration trickling through your fingers into the desert sands.
It can be of great value to draw or paint your visions. It's crucial. What you draw or paint can be the creation of a great milestone and starting off point in your healing journey.
It is commonplace experience that one can make wonderful start visualisation and feel enthused and healed, and then the mind can re-start obsessing on damage done to one, or the mind can lapse into lack of confidence, depression or even a bit of catastrophising.
There is no set time for the modules of the magical will course, but it is very good to keep up pace and momentum, so allowing one or two weeks for each module is the ideal.
Note that the work can lead to you doing repeats, further study and add-ons etc. And there are many further magical methods that you might find useful as well.

Čigav si? je partizanski roman Mileta Pavlina. Izšel je leta 1964 pri zavodu Borec v Ljubljani, ob dvajsetletnici ustanovitve varnostne službe nove Jugoslavije. Obsega 94 strani in 45.000 besed. Uvrščamo ga lahko med vohunske romane s partizansko tematiko.

Zgodba
Jakob Oven, bivši mornariški podčastnik, v času druge svetovne vojne beži iz italijanskega taborišča in na Primorskem išče partizane, saj bi rad postal eden izmed njih. Tam se sreča s starim prijateljem Jožetom, ki mu zaupa tajno nalogo obveščevalca in ga pošlje v belo gardo. Odide v Ljubljano, kjer se prijavi med belogardiste in obišče domače, ki ga imajo za izdajalca. Kot domobranec se izkaže, pridobi zaupanje nekaterih nadrejenih, povišajo ga na mesto v organizacijskem štabu, medtem pa vestno opravlja svoje delo obveščevalca in podatke posreduje zvezi – partizanki Vidi. Sreča Zlatko, ki jo je spoznal v Splitu, Zaljubljena sta drug v drugega, vendar se zveza med njima ne razvije, saj je dejstvo, da je Jakob domobranec, za Zlatko nepremostljiva ovira. Jakobova nova zveza postane partizan Vlado, ta mu sporoči, da ga je Tito povišal v podporočnika. Na njegovo željo ga premestijo v Stično, od koder partizanom poroča preko krčmarjeve hčere Micke. Informacije dobiva od majorja, s katerim se je spoprijateljil.  Partizani v bojih zdesetkajo domobrance. Jakoba pošljejo v Novo mesto, tu ga prime Gestapo in odvedejo ga v Ljubljano, od koder se opran suma vrne v Stično. Domobranski bataljon kmalu zatem beži proti Ljubljani, Jakob se skrivaj izmuzne in odide k partizanom. Za svoje delovanje prejme Partizansko zvezdo 3. stopnje in čin poročnika. Doma ga sedaj sprejmejo kot junaka, sprejme ga tudi Zlatka, to pa je za Jakoba največja nagrada.

Running a few days behind with my update but here are my goals for March for Project Use It Up. I have been working on some of these products for quite awhile and I am happy to see some being close to finished!
This how I did with my February goals. I did not do as well with masks this month. I usually try to do them on Sundays because I usually forget during the week. However, the mini had gymnastics competitions on Sunday nights and we weren't home for me to do the mask. And then I forgot as the week got going. I did pretty well with my other goals and even painted my nails once:) I was also able to use up quite a few samples during #foilfebruary.
Here are my March goals. The amounts for each category are staying the same. I have kept a few of the products which I will show in a moment. I took out the Smashbox primer because it is finished (Yay!). I am almost done with the Air Repair spray (maybe one or two uses) so I took that out also.
These are the products I am carrying over from February. The Tarte oil is at least half finished since I know the lines are hard to see. The Living Proof product is hard to see through so my progress lines are total guesses. Progress on the Marc Jacobs perfume has been pretty consistent with about 2 weeks of use for the month (I am using 2 perfume samples a month and those usually take about a week). I put the Becca primer in for February but I decided to use up my primer foil samples instead so I only used it a few times at the end of the month after my samples were gone.
These are the two products I am adding for March. One is the Fresh Rose Mask that was the Sephora birthday gift last year. I have used it a few times so it has been open for awhile and I need to finish it. The Radiance face mask is also one of my oldest masks and is an exfoliator so I am going to try to use one on the weekend and the other during the week.
Since taking these pictures, I have also decided to try to finish my Tarte lipstick in Plummy Rose. I started it in a project last fall and I think I could finish it this month.
I am really liking this type of project to keep me on track with products that I need to use up. I don't usually put too much makeup in because I tend to switch that up or have it as part of seasonal challenges. But this is a good way to keep my skincare and body care projects on track.
*All products were purchased by me. I was not compensated in any way for this post. All opinions are my own.
I am a wife, mother, and teacher. I don't sit still well so I am constantly trying new projects, recipes, books, and anything else. I am also addicted to makeup and beauty products. All of these help make up my life and my little blog. Thanks for visiting!

Endorsements for Remote Healing
Endorsements for Information Medicine
Memoir of my Mother
Endorsements for the book:
Nonlocal Information Medicine and the Akashic Field
Mária Sági's book is a milestone in the unfolding history of medicine. It recalls a dimension that was known to the classical healers but has not received the attention it deserves in today's medical community: the dimension of holistic healing with information.
Information is key to understanding the workings of the organism and this information, as the quantum sciences are telling us, is whole and nonlocal. This explains how Dr. Sági can heal her patients across space and time, and assures us that this kind of information-based holistic healing is a legitimate, and indeed fundamental, complement to the diagnosis and therapy practiced in contemporary medicine.
Prof. Ervin Laszlo
The Laszlo Institute of New Paradigm Research & The Club of Budapest
Current science is going through seismic paradigm shifts suggesting that all existence is consciousness and its modified expressions, and that fundamental reality is nonlocal and intention is how consciousness organizes its own fulfillment. These revelations lay the basic framework for dormant human potentials, such as remote healing.
This book will give you insight into a phenomenon known in wisdom traditions across the world and now getting the attention of healers and medical practitioners that it deserves.
Deepak Chopra, MD
The Chopra Foundation
Dr. Maria Sági's "Remote Healing," with its brilliant, data rich exploration of non-local diagnostic and therapeutic bioinformatics, will prove extraordinarily important to the future of medicine. With an unwieldy, human population fast approaching 8 billion precious individuals, and our species' Anthropocenic inflictions on the planet backfiring with epidemiological acceleration, Dr Sági's breakthrough work represents to medical treatment and our understanding of deep physiology, what carbon negative and animal liberation modalities mean to global warming and to the world's biodiversity crisis. The parallels are unambiguous: a healthy human and a healthy planet are inextricably reciprocal. In that way of thinking and living, "Remote Healing" offers a powerful anodyne at once pragmatic and illuminating. Every medical student and practitioner of health in humans—and other species—must read this book.
Michael Charles Tobias, PhD
Ecologist, President of Dancing Star Foundation
Nowadays, in all countries of the world, people are growing more and more anxious about the spread of new, unknown illnesses—illnesses that mystify scientists and interrupt the flow of our daily lives.
If scientists are to meet the challenges of the future, they need to expand their studies to include the limitless realm of information fields, fields that surpass time and space. Dr. Mária Sági has spent more than twenty years practicing nonlocal healing, and she has developed an effective healing method that can be learned by any qualified physician or healer. However, as Dr. Sági points out, "the healer's mind must be clear, and he or she must have an honest wish to heal." We are living in an age where healing for purposes of profit or fame is no longer tenable. Only pure-minded health professionals can assist us in restoring our natural, good health. For such people, I believe that Mária Sági's new book will be an indispensable tool.
Masami Saionji
Chair, The Goi Peace Foundation (Japan)
This book is very important because it opens the new and important path of remote healing, which can reverse disease conditions and invigorate health in many persons anywhere in the world wherever they are located. This will be the future: quantistic medicine.
Pier Mario Biava, MD
Founder and head, Novacell Biotech
There are mountains of books on healing, many with claims that are difficult to assess or verify. Remote Healing stands out as a beacon of leading edge scientific insight and teachable methodology. Mária Sági has given us a work of deep integrity and dazzling importance for the future of healing.
James O'Dea
Author and Former President, The Institute of Noetic Sciences
The effectiveness of Remote Healing as so ably and accessibly explained in this important, timely and much needed book, is now being supported by a scientifically-based integral model of reality. Founded on quantum and relativistic physics, its expanded understanding and discoveries of the intrinsic and fundamental role of meaningful 'in-formation' and the so-called holographic principle, is revealing how our Universe exists and evolves as a nonlocally coherent entity and as an emergent manifestation of more fundamental non-physical and causative realms of cosmic intelligence and unified reality.
Ever increasing scientific evidence at all scales of existence from the minute Planck scale to the entirety of the Universe and across many fields of research, is now validating the primacy of mind and consciousness. In addition to the validity of nonlocal healing, this holistic wholeworld-view offers a natural and inclusive framework for other 'supernormal' phenomena, such as synchronicities, intuitive insight, the power of intention, telepathy, precognition, and remote viewing.
Dr. Jude Currivan
Cosmologist, co-founder of WholeWorld-View
Three thousand years ago no one could imagine or believe we can have enough light at night, because people did not know about electricity. Three hundred years ago no one could imagine or believe that we can communicate worldwide and search a wide variety of information via a small machine such as a smart phone, because nobody new about the electromagnetic wave. Now we know about electricity and electromagnetic waves even if we cannot see them with our eyes. And we believe them because they can be measured by estanlblished scientific methods and are being used in everyday life. Therefore when chi, intention, prayer and love will be measured by the scientific method, we shall believe them although we still we do not see them. I am sure that nonlocal healing will be proven by the establkished method of science in the near future, and Dr. Maria Sági's book is a historical milestone toward this end. It offers a new dimension and a new paradigm for medical treatment in Japan and worldwide.
Mitsu Shibata
Ambassador, The Club of Budapest, Japan
This pioneering and ground-breaking book introduces the theory and practice of nonlocal healing within an extended scientific framework while clearly explaining the author's own experience of researching the whole field as well as its history within different cultures. Instead of limiting ourselves to local biochemical approaches, we can now complement these with systematic methods on the basis of our unique individual morphic patterns within an overall general species pattern to heal and restore health and harmony to the person. The basis of future advances in a more comprehensive medicine will be energetic and informational rather than simply molecular, as this book convincingly demonstrates.
David Lorimer
Director, The Scientific and Medical Network, England
Can the study and practice of something that has been practiced for thousands of years be considered brand new? That is exactly what Maria Sági has accomplished by bringing state of the art science to a craft Shamans and other healers have been practicing since far back in human history. The techniques of intuitive and materialistic healing have long overlapped, but in this brilliant book we get to peek behind the curtain and see that in every important way the two are inseparable. There is a very real scientific basis for her method, couched in the discoveries of cutting age physics, and we are now beginning to understand that we are much more than our material bodies. This is an important book, but it is very accessible for those without a background in either medicine or remote viewing. It is also an entertaining read!
Author, The Quantum Akashic Field
Dr. Maria Sagi gives us a remarkably rich study of nonlocal healing methods and how to understand them in the larger settings of science and traditional healing practices. Only with today's many advances in understanding nonlocal information and physics can both healers and scientists fully appreciate the facts set out on these pages. Dr. Sagi has given us a beautifully written and clear narrative of the history and knowledge of nonlocal healing. Filled with many examples and personal stories, this book is a joy to read.
Allan Leslie Combs, Ph.D.
For years I experienced the transformative power of fields of consciousness in my university setting, leading me to write The Living Classroom, but Remote Healing mines these fields with a precision and detail that I had not previously thought possible. You have opened a new world to me, and to your future readers. I sincerely thank you for your work and for sharing it in this book.
Christopher Bache
Author of LSD and the Mind of the Universe
Dr. Mária Sági presents the methodology of remote healing scientifically in her latest work, departing from, but not denying, its mystical origins. Remote healing is no longer a magical, but a scientific method, benefiting from a background of decades of research conducted on energy and information theory, wave theory, nuclear physics, and quantum theory.
In addition to introducing the scientific background, a great virtue of the book is the simple, earnest, heart-warming style of its author. She brings us just close to ancient Egypt, Daoist thinking and to Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, and she makes us feel at home in the Viennese laboratory of Erich Körbler, the London office of Carl Upton, and the German brain research laboratory of Professor Haffelder.
The author is not only thoroughly versed in science education, but she also helps us to understand her method through practical examples, and her own experience in reporting on the treatment of her patients' problems. A special strength of the book are the countless case studies that allow us to get a glimpse of the diverse methods used in remote healing. I recommend this book to everyone who realizes that the possibilities of science in general, and of medical science in particular, are much vaster than we think. Our potentials are limited limited only by our own minds.
Dr. Róbert Csiszár
Biological Dentistry and Hungarian Medical Association
Dr. Mária Sági provides us with a complex diagnostic and therapeutic system that everyone can learn and use, and does it in simple and straightforward language and in an entertaining style. Good and true ideas do not fall through the sieve of time. Erich Körbler's diagnostic and healing, bioinformational medicine has stood the test of time, and through Mária Sági's work it keeps progressing, expanding, evolving beyond the life-span of its creator. Sági was chosen by Körbler; he passed on to her the knowledge and the practical methodology to achieve quasi-miraculous cures in cases that have stymied modern medicine.
Körbler made a perfect decision whom to entrust with his treasure-house of knowledge: Mária Sági continues his research and does research on her own, developing new methodologies. These include remote healing, of which the scientific explanation and background has now been provided. We can understand this amazing healing in light of the findings of biocybernetics, quantum physics, and psi-field theory. The finding that healing that transcends the frequency-range accessible to the eye nonetheless works is not magic any more; it is valid, and based on fact. We are grateful to Dr Sági for conveying this knowledge, and equipping us with healing methods that can be successfully applied by all who acquire it.
Dr. Erzsébet Tusor
Hungarian Chamber of Physicians and Helior Medical Inc.
Ahhh yes, this is a wonderful yet practical guide to the Sagi method of healing across space and time.
We now know that space and time isn't what we think it is despite the fact that we can't get our heads around it in linear ways.
It is this quantum revelation and beyond about space and time and our place "in it" that allows the magic of remote healing to occur. Why? Because this 'quantum' healing of energy in 'unseen' grids and fields that make up the human body can happen in a nonlocal way.
We receive modern language for what the ancient sages always knew — even if they didn't refer to the crystalline grid and Akashic Records in ancient India, we know now that all humans can interact with the Akashic information field to diagnose and treat illnesses nonlocally and that the results and effects are proven again and again despite the fact that mainstream science still doesn't universally recognize it.
This great read with a forward by Ervin Laszlo details techniques for diagnosing and transferring healinginformation at a distance, using geometric symbols to treat acute infections and reduce pain, and integrating information medicine with homeopathy and chakra therapy.
For those new to the concept of remote healing, think of it as healing over space and time or "nonlocalhealing," which is particularly useful now that many of us are working (and studying from) home since the Covid lockdowns and restrictions the world has been experiencing since March 2020.
Once deemed as a mystical technique reserved for powerful shamans, sages and ancient gurus, we now know that we can all learn how to do remote healing — rather than the magic that we used to perceive, it is rather science, as biologists like Bruce Lipton has written about and Dr. Joe Dispenza speaks of regularly on the Gaia channel.
The author speaks of the cosmic information that truly underlies the whole physical world, including the human body. We also learn about energy pioneers in this area such as Erich Körbler, Gordon Flint, and Franz Stern among others.
Maria Sagi demonstrates that by working with the Akashic information field in the quantum field, we can trigger the body's self-healing mechanisms and restore order to our health and well-being.
