QS Meetup Groups
Friends of QS
We recently started a program to invite QS Toolmakers to contribute directly to funding our events. We call this program Friends of QS. If you would like to participate we invite you email us to learn more.
Tereza Nemessanyi started quantifying herself in a time of great loneliness, after both her parents had died and she was missing their advice. She asked her friends for advice, but she found it to be polite and not always honest. So she built an app, Honestly Now, to let people anonymously ask for and give each other frank advice. In the video below, Tereza talks about what she learned from this project, including how to calibrate whether something is worth stressing about. (Filmed by the New York QS Show&Tell meetup group.)
On Tuesday Evening, January 18th, another inquisitive, intelligent and enthusiastic group of individuals came together to share and learn at the 2nd Quantified Self San Diego.
The event was hosted by Paula Nenn and Summer Rogers of Optimal Health and Prevention Research Foundation. Paula attended our 1st QSSD, and was so in tune with what we were doing that she immediately offered her support by offering to host our next meeting.
After everyone socialized a bit over beverages and healthy snacks we started off the evening with a talk from Nate Heintzman, Ph.D. from Calit2 and the Biomedical Informatics Group at UCSD.
He shared information about his blood sugar as measured by the Dexcom SEVEN PLUS on an important and stressful day for him – the day he interviewed for a faculty positon.
The information from the device shows how you could appear to be diabetic, when you are actually stressed! Check out his talk on HealthGeek.TV at this link. UPDATE: (slides here) Continue reading
Marco Castros loves food. He's also interested in exploring the relationship we have with food, and how it changes depending on the company we are in. Marco spoke at the last New York QS Show&Tell meetup. In the video below, he describes how he hacked his Withings scale and designed a "Weighting Chair" that records the weight of anyone who sits in it. And yes, the chair tweets.

Do you need help to quit smoking or to give up tobacco use?
Quitting smoking can take several attempts throughout your life. Sometimes it is not just the quitting, it is more about staying tobacco-free for the rest of your life.
If you have made the decision to quit, we encourage you to pick up the phone and take the first step to rid yourself of this unhealthy habit forever.
Everyone is aware of the dangers of smoking, and most people know they need to quit. But often the question is how to get it done.
Yampa Valley Medical Center offers one-on-one nicotine counseling with a trained, experienced nicotine counselor. With a referral from your doctor we will arrange a session of 30-45 minutes to sit down and discuss ways to finally give up your habit for good.
The purpose of your first visit will be to set a date, make plans for a successful quit attempt, and talk about tools you can use to defeat your tobacco use permanently. We can discuss medications if you want to use these in your quit attempt.
All of our nicotine counseling is done in a supportive, encouraging way.
To make an appointment or for more information call our Respiratory Care department at 970-871-2392.

Top returners: Senior Nick Shearin (160); juniors Hutson Baumann (145) and Sam Boulos (152).
Top newcomers: Junior Matt Nickell (120); sophomore Sam Routt (126); freshman Austin Kraisser (138).
Key losses: Nathan Kraisser (126), Joey Wysocki (160) and Benjamin Tucker (170).
Non-league opponents: at Arundel, Dec. 14; at John Carroll, Dec. 20; at Southern, Jan. 31.
The gameplan: Because of his pedigree, Kraisser is the team's most intriguing wrestler, but he's not the only Eagles attraction. Boulos, Baumann and Shearin all won double digit matches last year, and have worked hard in the offseason. Roogow was also impressed by the strides made by Nickell and Routt in the offseason, and he likes that many of his best wrestlers are clustered between 120 and 160.
Bonus point: Nathan Kraisser won the NC State Wolfpack Open in early November, and heading into winter break, is 15-3 with four pins and four major decisions as North Carolina's freshman 125-pounder.
Glenelg Gladiators
Last season: 10-1, 18-7, 1A/2A South dual meet and tournament regional champion, county dual meet and tournament runner-up
Coach: Chris Rosas, third season
Top returners: Seniors Ryan Carter (138), Anthony Pagnotta (170) and Sean Twigg (285); juniors Austin Pagnotta (145) and Joe Zoller (152); sophomore Tim Null (106/112).
Top newcomers: Sophomore Austin Twigg (182/195); freshman Parker Griffie (113/120).
Key losses: Justin Jung (220), Glenn Lucas (182), Tyler Asher (170) and Ricky Gezelle (120).
Non-league opponents: at LaPlata, Jan. 10.
The gameplan: The Gladiators, who have won four dual meet county titles since 2007, are looking good again this winter. Along with the senior leadership of Carter, Pagnotta and Twigg — who combined for 100 wins last year — Glenelg got another influx of new talent. Twigg's younger brother, Austin, is coming off of a 60-pound growth spurt, and wants to make his own name. Griffie had an impressive junior league career as a Warhawk, and has developed a good practice room rivalry with Null.
Bonus point: Anthony Pagnotta, a face-off specialist, has committed to play Division I college lacrosse for Towson University next year.
Hammond Golden Bears
Last season: 3-8, 14-14, eighth at county tournament, New Town Duals champion
Coach: Patrick Kepp, first season
Top returners: Seniors Bryan Overton (160), Josh Thibodeaux (170) and Humphrey Anuh (195); junior Evan Nuss (132).
Top newcomers: Junior Xavier Reese (145); sophomore Anthony Solis (138); freshman Darren Ketchum (120/126).

Military Mom: Yesterday Was Like 9/11 for Me
Guest blogger, and our own Military Mom group leader Tammy Munson, talks to ML about the Fort Hood tragedy.
Tammy Munson: November 5th, 2009 will be one of those days that I never will forget where I was or what I was doing. In ways, it reminded me a lot of my thoughts and fears of September 11, 2001. It brought back images of desperately searching for information, hoping it wasn't what you thought it was, and praying for those families affected.
I first heard of the shooting at Fort Hood on Twitter, I immediately thought, "Well, Fort Hood is certainly no stranger to violence." There have been numerous shootings and murders in and around Fort Hood over the last several years. It must be something along those lines.
But as information began to emerge on Twitter, Facebook and the major news channels, my thoughts went to: "Oh my goodness, this is actually happening." I felt an immediate heaviness in my heart and wondered if we knew anyone directly who was there. I began searching for those that we know in Texas and luckily none of them were any of the families directly impacted by the horrific tragedy at Fort Hood.
It was also a role reversal as well. Usually, it is my deployed husband telling me what is going on over there where he is stationed in Afghanistan so I won't worry. Yesterday he was calling me to find out what happened so he wouldn't worry. It was the middle of the night for them, and there wasn't a whole lot of information
As the information and speculation began to explode all over the internet, I found myself glued to the internet and television just like I was on September 11th. I was not only worrying about those who were getting that knock on their door from official military personal, but about our own personal safety.
One of the reasons so many families live on a military installation is the safety factor. It is so much safer to live on "post." You feel safe here. You see the MP's patrolling the streets on foot and in their vehicles. You have security at the gates, so you must have a Dept. of Defense sticker and an ID to gain access. One man, an Officer in the US Army, took that feeling of being protected and safe away from us.
Of course I'm not paralyzed with fear or anything, but it does make you stop and think. Are we really "safer" here on post? Was that something we tell ourselves so that we can make it through the deployments? I don't think any of us will be that naive any more. If it can happen at Fort Hood, it can happen at just about anywhere.
The horrific tragedy that occurred yesterday was magnified I believe by many in the mainstream media and others. There was ton of speculation and assuming of unproven facts. I thought that they were supposed to report the FACTS. But I know that mainstream media has a long history of sensationalizing stories to make things more news-worthy.
This was not the time to do that. Family members of Fort Hood soldiers were desperately searching for information about their loved ones and what they were finding was lots of speculation and "talking heads" jumping to conclusions. They needed fact and truth.
All in all, the people of the United States did what we do best. We rallied around those who were affected by tragedy and we will continue to be there for them until they no longer need our love, prayers and support.
The role reversal part was spot on. I am here in Afghanistan and many of those here continue to worry that someone they know was affected. What a horrible event to unfold before a deployment. I thought I had it tough.
Hello. excellent job. I did not anticipate this. This is a splendid story. Thanks!
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.
Do you mind if I reference this post from my website? I find myself at your website more and more frequently to the point where my stops here are more or less daily now! Thanks once more for putting this up. I unquestionably liked every part of it.
I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.
Many thanks for the information I used to be trying to find this piece and after studying this, really decided to get it!!
I'm still learning from you, as I'm making my way to the top as well. I absolutely liked reading everything that is posted on your website.Keep the posts coming. I enjoyed it
I simply directed this post to a lot of my close friends as I agree with almost all of what you're declaring here and the way you've presented it is awesome.
Hey, I have been visiting your site on and off for weeks now and I always pick up a gem in your articles. Thanks for sharing. Thank You For This Post, added it to my favorites. Thanks once more for taking the time to put this online. I definitely loved every part of it.
Hey i am not going to be all that original this time, so all i can say that your site is cool, too bad that I don't have great writing talents Thanks once more for putting this online. I unquestionably enjoyed every bit of it.
It is truely nice post, but I do not see everything completely clear, especially for someone not involved in that topic. Anyway very interesting to me.

text: Media Matters Boasts to Al-Jazeera: Obama Mistreated Netanyahu Print article Send a Tip by Ezra Dulis 18 Mar 2012 post a comment A spokesman for Media Matters for America, which communicates directly with the White House in a weekly "strategy call," boasted in 2010 of President Obama's mistreatment of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a forum held by Al-Jazeera. The Daily Caller has published a report linking Media Matters for America to the anti-American, anti-Israel news network Al-Jazeera, primarily through the work of author M.J. Rosenberg, who has come under fire from Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz for using antisemitic language and alleging that American Jews display greater loyalty to Israel than the United States. Jamie Weinstein writes: Media Matters Action Network senior foreign policy fellow MJ Rosenberg's column for the liberal organization regularly appears on Al-Jazeera's website and, in 2010, Rosenberg represented Media Matters at a forum hosted by Al-Jazeera in Doha, Qatar where he praised the news outlet as "mainstream." Media Matters Action Network is part of the organization's political arm. According to two Daily Caller sources, the then-director general of Al-Jazeera, Wadah Khanfar, also visited Media Matters' offices in Washington in 2010 and met with the organization's two top leaders, David Brock and Eric Boehlert. Representing Media Matters at the first Al-Jazeera "Unplugged" forum on social media at the Sheraton Hotel & Resort in Doha on May 22, 2010, Rosenberg explained that Khanfar invited him to the forum during a meeting in Washington earlier that year. In his stunning speech at the forum, Rosenberg praised Al-Jazeera as a "mainstream network," bashed Fox News, suggested that the U.S. government intentionally bombed an Al-Jazeera bureau and expressed unreserved joy that President Obama was treating Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu so poorly. Rosenberg expounded on the topic, claiming that the Obama Administration no longer considered America and Israel's relationship more special than with any other nation: "When Netanyahu came to Washington, no president has ever treated an Israeli prime minister as coldly as Netanyahu was treated by Obama," Rosenberg said, with obvious joy, to what was presumably a largely Arab audience. "Suddenly Israel today is, even though it gets what it wants to a certain extent, Israel is treated as another country, a foreign country, which makes it no different than all the other foreign countries. That is what Obama is trying to do: take Israel away from being the 51st state and make it a foreign country like Lebanon or France or any normal foreign country." "He has done that," Rosenberg added. "You know, he has sent the Arab world signals from day one of where his heart is." Rosenberg asserts that the President of the United States intentionally mistreated the Prime Minister of Israel to "send signals" to the Arab world. Since Rosenberg works for an organization that holds weekly "strategy calls" with the White House, it stands to reason that he may have been drawing upon insider information to make that claim. It's unlikely that the mainstream media will follow up on this story and press Obama on his "signals" to the Arab world or his true feelings on Israel.

Cultural Awareness and Public Perceptions in NATO Operations
A seminar "Assessing the Impact and Role of Cultural Awareness and Public Perceptions in NATO Operations" took place on October 24, 2013 in NATO Headquarters in Brussels. The seminar was organized by the Czech Republic together with the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and in co-operation with NATO Political Affairs and Security Policy Division.
This unique and path-breaking event was linked to the activities of the Czech Republic as the NATO Contact Point Embassy in Amman, Jordan which the Czech Republic has been performing since January 2013. Open and fruitful discussion amongst more than 70 participants from 34 allied and partner countries taking part in the seminar clearly demonstrated that NATO's partnership policy is a two-way street whereby partners have a lot to bring to the table.
Deep theoretical knowledge and extensive practical experience with coping with the challenge of overcoming cultural differences in NATO operations and missions (especially in Kosovo and Afghanistan) were shared across participants. Serious or tragic consequences of the lack of cultural awareness in exalted situations that could have disproportionately negative impact on NATO operation results, or even an overall stabilisation and reconstruction of the host country were widely recognized. Recent experience from NATO-led operations have also demonstrated the existence of a gap in the field of cultural awareness and public perceptions and related training on the part of the Alliance.
The seminar was opened by H.E. J. Šedivý, the Permanent Representative of the Czech Republic to NATO and the Assistant Secretary General T. Stamatopulos. The keynote speech delivered by the guest of honour, His Royal Highness Prince Feisal of Jordan, set the overall context for the ensuing presentations and discussions. A wide range of cultural awareness-related lessons learned and best practices from operations were addressed and specific capabilities that individual Allies and Partners have at their disposal were identified. Representatives of the Jordanian Armed Forces (JAF) informed the audience about the specialised courses provided by their Peace Operation Training Center that are available for both NATO and partner countries. The gender aspects of cultural awareness in operations was introduced by a representative of the JAF Directorate for Women´s Affairs. In the concluding debate the participants supported the seminar organizers´ ambition to initiate a further discussion in the Alliance that would lead to a systematic lessons learned collecting and the development of a standardised cultural awareness pre-deployment training module.

Once in a very great while, a news story turns from tragic to triumphant overnight. Literally. I'm beyond thrilled to report that yesterday's sickening tale of Karen Klein, the elderly school bus monitor bullied to tears by a bunch of bratty kids, has turned out to be one of these rare miracles: An online fundraiser called "Let's Give Karen -- The Bus Monitor -- Klein a Vacation," started by one of the thousands of people around the world who were completely outraged by the treatment Klein received, has already raised over $144,000.
I sincerely hope the vile kid who yelled, "You're so f**kin' poor, you fat a**" feels like a complete and total fool. I also hope that when and if Klein takes her entire family on a Disney cruise (as she's mentioned wanting to do), she sends those kids tons and tons and tons of postcards: "DON'T wish you were here!"
Especially because the story gets even more heartbreaking as more details are revealed. The worst part? One of the most heartless comments made in the video was "you're so ugly your kid should kill themselves." Klein's son committed suicide just 10 years ago.
So horrible. Utterly detestable. Even as a grandmother of eight who was a school bus driver for 20 years and has been a bus monitor for three years, Klein was blown away by this particular display of cruelty:
"Sometimes you expect kids to be like they acted, but not that bad. They weren't that bad all year. That one day, I don't know what possessed them."
Possessed is right. The little demons. School officials said there will be disciplinary actions taken, no details involving the punishment have been released yet. I just hope it fits the crime.
Have fun on your cruise, Karen!! You deserve it!!
What do you think Karen Klein should do with the money?
Image via 9wsyr.com
The video sickened me! I can't believe some of the stuff those kids were saying "she has no family left because her son killed himself!" WTF is wrong with these kids?!?! Who made them so heartless? I swear if that was my kid I would have beat his ass! I think the parents of those horrible vile children should make them publicly apologize to her. Shame on them!!!!
Those kids should have to do 500 hours of community service. I am glad people raised money for her, I hope she can retire. This makes me sick to think about, them asking why her face was wet when she was crying.....it really is shameful that humans can act like that.
I hope enough donations are made that she's able to retire. The total was over $188K when I checked a few minutes ago.
I'm so glad the online community is rallying around this poor woman. The total as of this posting is now $240,000. I hope she makes enough to retire and never have to deal with such abuse ever again.
This video literally brought me to tears, and the main reason being is that I have and had a Grandma that I can't even begin to explain how much I love(d). I could not imagine anyone talking to my Grandma....or anyone for that matter like this. These boys need a to be punished and the parents need to take responsibility and quit whining about how this is affecting their kids by going viral, those tough talking wanna-be brats didn't think twice about being curel to this woman and posting it on the internet.....if they feel threatened good, maybe they might know how this innocent LADY they choose to bully felt.
I hope those kids are PERMANENTLY banned from the bus. Maybe then their parents will be inconvenienced enough to DEAL WITH THEIR KIDS. Sorry little rat bastards should have to WALK, preferably several miles a day. Object lessons can teach kids a lot of respect.

Everything is temporary including our own very existence! Every moment brings you happiness or sorrow. Every stroke with the brush on your canvas of life is either lead us to happiness or sorrow. Many of us try to paint a permanent picture without realizing the impermanence of life here on earth. Let us understand, since there is no permanent happiness in life; there is also no permanent sorrow. As every valley is followed by a mountain. Understand the dynamics of life and live life to the fullest.Answered by anantharaman, 03 Mar '11 08:05 am
