Hi, it's Bridget. Welcome to Above Life Channel, the purpose here is to inspire your spirit and to fill you with hope today. First thing in the morning, we're out on the back deck after a couple of days of warm, warm weather, which you know I love. If you watch my fairy grasshopper YouTube, you know I love the warm weather. We're out this morning. It's kind of raining a little bit. It is a bit cooler. And so I thought I'd take some time to come out here and I really wanted to do channeling. Like I woke up this morning and I wanted to talk with Robin Williams. This sounds a bit, this might seem a bit casual, but like even more than normal, but I really want you guys to understand how I, what it's like in my psychic life as a medium, as a connector, as a bridge to the afterlife with celebrities and spirit guides, angels, saints, deities, totem animals, all of that, how it works. And when I'm inspired to channel and connect, I want to do that. It doesn't have to be all super formal and official. So Robin Williams is somebody that, yes, we have channeled before. Yes, we've spoken to Robin before. Of course we have. He's wonderful. Who wouldn't want to talk with Robin Williams in the afterlife? So there is a playlist. If you want some of the nitty gritty, the specifics from him and his perspective looking back on his life or on life in general, check out the playlist. Today, I'm going to talk with him. And in like day to day psychic life, let you watch, be a part of this so you can understand and be encouraged to connect with your favorite celebrity, your favorite deity or God, goddess aspect or totem animal or spirit guide or angel, et cetera, no matter how famous, fabulously famous they are. This is how it works. This is the real psychic connection. Okay, this isn't the makeuped, perfect lighting, fabulous colored clothing and gorgeous jewelry production. This is legit. Real connection like real people. So the soul connect with the afterlife in spirits. I'm going to show you, I'm going to show you with Robin. Hey, nice to see you. I got the Mrs. Doubtfire vibes this morning. Actually, I was watching one of my favorite bloggers. I'm going to finish felt him in on this. He knows, but I'm going to share it. So you guys have the benefit of knowing I was watching one of my favorite bloggers yesterday for Disney. My favorite. I got my Disney shirt on. I got my Disney, my Disney shorts on. It's just, oh, I'm so disneyfied right now. Just I love it. It makes me feel so good. And Robin, I totally think about you and the genie from Aladdin, which is like my very favorite image and spirit guide image of you as a genie grant to my three wishes, right? As Aladdin's best friend, I'd love to consider you one of my BFFs or my BSFs, my best soul friend. So I really do appreciate you. But I was watching one of my favorite vloggers and it's paging Mr. Morrow. M-A-R. I think it's M-O-R-R-O-W. I'm not sure. Paging Mr. Morrow. And he was at Disney World and I love him. He's got, he's just has such, his name is Nate and he has such a nice energy. And so, but he made a mention to you, Mrs. Doubtfire. Oh, Mrs. Doubtfire. And I love that movie. It was so great. Like, putting your face in the cake and like, hello. Oh my gosh, I love that. It just made me smile so much. I appreciate that. So it made me, it did kind of plant the seed a little bit to connect with you. And I've been wanting to, I've been thinking about having another Robin Williams therapy session. So why you as my, my like therapist in the afterlife? Why you? And he says, because of my multiple personalities. Yes, it's like, you can be a life coach. You can be a body homeopathy, kind of natural pathic type. Intuitive, like a genie and this like future visioning energy.  To be honest, you just have it all. And so that must be why I just love you as my, my therapist. And you don't charge me an arm and a leg. And you don't, I don't need to worry about insurance coverage. You know, so I like it. So all right. So today's topic, I want to talk about, oh, there's a lot of things we could talk about that would interest the audience too. But I want to talk about, let me just kind of feel in you guys, because I have a lot of stuff I've been working on journaling. And you guys know, if you watch me on fairy grasshopper, my fairy grasshopper YouTube channel, that's where I share like my blogging stuff and my real psychic life stuff and topics and all that intuitive stuff. So that's kind of feeling and see what feels right. I a couple of things are coming up here. I'm not sure if I want to talk about family like family of origin and how that influences us. That's a good topic. Or if I want to talk about the body, yeah, let's talk about embodiment. Because Oh, no, no, no, no, this is perfect. This is a perfect one, a bridge between the two. And I literally just heard this from the atmosphere, not from within me. I just literally saw a bridge kind of light up. And then I heard this word self care. Let's talk about self care. Not the kind of self care like pedicures and massages that kind of vibe. But self care. And how are we? Okay, so let's start this way. I think that we as people want to take care of ourselves. I think we do.  And we all of a sudden think Oh, and we think and we and we were just bopping down the road, right. And then all of a sudden we go, wait a minute, what, like, I'm supposed to be taking care of myself like I forgot to do that. Or we have this kind of like revelation like we've been doing this is we've had this revelation that we've been doing so much for other people. And our energy has been such outputted that we're like, Oh, my self care has only consisted of maybe a nice dinner with a friend every once in a while, a walk along the beach, girls get away weekend or a pedicure, like that's not enough people. Guys and gals out there in YouTube land that is not enough.  It doesn't matter what powers you, it doesn't matter how you fit in your body. Let me just say that very clearly. This is not a conversation about how you fit in there in your body. This is a conversation about realizing how much care we actually need. Like I'm realizing I need way more care than I'm giving myself. And even though I think I have really good practices, like Robin, you know, I do my meditation. Sometimes, sometimes they don't. If you need help with meditation, you should look on fairy grasshopper at the tapping videos I have. And you should look at Sunday morning coffee, sit with me. The episode called sit with me. That's a meditation. There's other meditations on Sunday morning coffee to which is here on above life channel playlist. But you know, I have routines like things, I have a huge backpack, metaphysical backpack filled with tools of divination tools like card decks, and I have crystals, and I have my OMS, which if you don't know what an OMS is, oh, you miss it out. We're gonna talk about that on fairy grasshopper. I'm gonna talk about that coming up in my private group. I'm gonna be starting here soon. Anyway, I digress. Like that's what gets me happy and excited and feeling good, right? Inspired is creating stuff. But I can't create stuff. If my tank is low, and there ain't no fuel in this body to help care for myself so much that I'm overflowing with the abundance of ideas and creative energy and that has to swirl around us, you guys, before it can go out of us. And the thing is, is we didn't learn that you and I learned that our value is based on the relationships we have with other people, the approval of our parents or our teacher or a professor or a collegiate institution or a boss or a company that promotes you or even customers and clients if you're an entrepreneur that love you and buy your products over and over again. And if they stop buying your products for some reason, or if you maybe I'm not saying I can relate to this, but I'm saying I can relate to this. Maybe you have a couple months that are real slow on the income level train because people just aren't it's not a hit on you. They're doing other things. They're caring for themselves in other ways. But you, we, you and I see our value in that what other people are giving doing giving back to us, which means all of us are giving to other people and not giving to ourselves. I think having session is giving to yourself. Let me just say and that's part of how I am caring for myself. That's part of my package as part of my bundle in my backpack is I have sessions for myself with my feelings coach. I have a coach that just helps me on my feelings and works with me with my relationships in my heart space with my kids specifically as a mother, my role as a mom. I also have a coach that helps work with the energies around me as things are popping up in my ancestral lines and the things that are coming up for me from a spiritual context to work with and work on and integrate. And so she helps me with that. And then I also have a business coach that helps me with the spirit of my business or the essence of the energy around my business or work and how what the structure is of that and how it can flow into the world. And so I have these tools I have tools yoga and exercise and I have these tools I had I have tools. And yet I find self care is not something that I actually remember is essential that it's required. And and I struggle with what it what does that even mean really? What does it really mean? Like, is it every an everyday thing? Is it multiple times a day? Is it like, what is this Robin? Like we don't we human people don't have a clue about this. I mean, I would think you might know because you were pulled in a lot of directions as a human. You had a lot of projects you had a lot of variety of things you were working on you had a lot of different relationships stuff to you had kids and, you know, significant others and spouse and all that and ex spouse and all that. And and friends and everything. How how what can you share about self care? That that we can understand.  It's kind of this ambiguous thing that we all feel and know that we need but we're not really sure how to get it. But it's not an it it's not a thing it's a flow it's an energy it's a zone it's a it's like a zone. It's like a state of being or is it I don't tell me about this. Tell me educate me about this. Because I'm in some assistance, some professor Lee like scholarly instruction. He's like breathe. Okay, so we're going to take a breath. Everybody take a breath. Do the woo woo stuff. Okay, give me a break. You're here watching on above life channel me channeling Robin Williams. You're into the woo woo. So how about you? You give me gum gum. Robin Williams show. Which one was that? You give me gum gum. Type the movie in below if you know which one it was. And still there wasn't it just to give you a hint. Okay. Breathing. Seriously, guys, take a breath. I'm going to relax back here a little bit. I'm a bubble. So I can kind of lean back and you can still see me and enjoy the scenery. Okay, so it's the point of the breath thing. He's going like this to me like come closer. He's like, you're alive. You're alive. Don't you think do you suppose there's a miracle in that?  You are alive. He says Robin Williams says to you, you're alive. So the breathing proves that we're alive. We're gonna are we gonna get all philosophical the meaning of life. He literally says the meaning of life. He literally looks like a yogi like he's got his legs crossed. And now I'm seeing the movie The Birdcage and him like with a flowery kind of Hawaiian shirt on and he's like, breathe with me. He says, you have to have spice in your life. You have to have a sense of humor. He said, this energy is this is the vibration of life. He's like, this is this is it. This is it. Just the pure. Can you guys hear that? You probably can't hear it yet. It's raining. It just started raining as if on cue, like we're in a Hollywood Sun stage. Breathing and I smell the air. Yes, he says yes, feel your senses. You guys do this with me feel your senses feel, feel your body. He says, feel your body. Listen. He laughs and he says, I know it can be annoying to hear the sound of your breathing. At first it seems distracting. He says, but really, it's the best way to attract. He's like, it's the best attraction that there is in the side show of life. I'm feeling like my heart is really tense. I don't know if you guys are you feeling that empath energy. I just I personally feel it and since this is my session and y'all are watching me, we're gonna enjoy it. It is not easy for me to breathe right now with awareness. Like I literally feel like I'm breathing up into my head and getting almost lightheaded. So I'm going to try to breathe into the body. Yes, he says yes. Robin says to imagine a glow of light in your belly, like right below your heart space here right in your body at the center of your body. And he says it looks kind of like a tear drop almost like a oval that has the two points, two edges of the oval pointed up and down. So it's pointing up to the heart and down to the low belly. And it's just above the kind of the solar plexus or right where the spirit chakra the intuitive chakra the soul would be in the body if you do chakras and that kind of thing like yoga chakras and meditation chakras like that. But it's gold like a yellow. It's light yellow by the way pale kind of yellow what I see. Here's gonna be whatever color you want. If you want mustard you make it mustard you make it brass. I don't care. It's yellow. So he says this is the beginning. Focus on breathing that breathe. He says breathe this this imagery let it kind of expand and contract a little bit let it kind of grow and come back to its shape grow and come back let it just kind of open open and touch open and touch it looks like it's opening and touching so let's breathe into that you guys close your eyes for a bit. Visualize that yellow part of light in the belly pale yellow just beautiful soft yellow and imagine visualize that breathing usually I can breathe really well but right now I'm just having a hard time with about getting into my belly even my breath so let's not try let's just be he says do not try he says he's like such a yogi so cool cool we must have humor in this experience this is what self care is all about doesn't yourself rather want to enjoy life oh yes you can breathe and have fun with it and enjoy it find the bliss he's like find the bliss it's like Bridget find the bliss find the bliss isn't that like a chocolate brand bliss it should be if it's not explicit okay okay focus allow the breathing just allow the light to come into the body and out of the body it's like do not try to put the breath into the nose and go down the anatomy he's like just get it the quickest way possible let your belly go up and down and open and touch and open and touch and he's like the touching point is the important part the point at the top and the point at the bottom of this I'm breathing in and exhaling out I have not done this on a video with anybody I cannot my brain is like what the heck bridge okay Robin's like ever the student this will give a prime example for all we are always learning Bridget is demonstrating resistance everyone I'm like thank you Robin thanks for pointing that out thanks for pointing that out oh I like the giggles oh that feels good in my belly when they laugh breathing in to that space exhaling out if you yawn it's natural it's just release you guys it's just relaxing so lean back oh that is cool thank you wow you guys okay so I see the third eye energy a little bit of a light blue energy kind of like an Archangel Michael vibe a sky vibe sky the clouds in the sky vibe so I'm just going to breathe that in so we've got the pale yellow light energy like the sunshine our bellies and now we've got the sky energy the light blue and we've got the sound of the rain behind us all around us encompassing and unfolding us creating beautiful connection space breathing in and exhaling out soften you guys soften your body ah thank you he says tender care with tender care allow this allow yourself to breathe and be breathed do not withhold any of this any of this power and energy sweetness tenderness just do not withhold any of it from yourself this is the first and most important part of caring for you caring for self oh he says caring for your spirit is self care and that was worth the price of admission let's breathe in when I say let's breathe in it's because we're intending there's an intention to receive so an awareness to receive and I'm exhaling out just to acknowledge that thank you thank you thank you thank you so much gratitude on this heart right now oh yes wow now my heart feels yellow light yellow and tender is probably the best word that I would describe and I'm just waiting for Robin to do like Reiki on me or something Reiki is like one of those really popular like energy modality things anyway doing his moves beautiful and he goes back like this he literally goes like this which is one of those yoga moves those mudras to receive energy you know receiving the thumb and the middle finger it has multi purposes it is the multi-purpose tool probably Robin Williams would have me do this oh yum he says yum like yummy oh my eyes are tearing oh that's so perfect that's how I know we have connection oh you guys if you ever are doing meditation breathing in and exhaling out or doing breath exercises are just sitting like this for a moment together just and you start to tear your eyes tear up it's connection oh it's connection you are connected that's what it means it's an affirmation your body is feeling the goodness the good stuff you need the good stuff we need the good stuff we need the good stuff receive receive receive the good stuff yes be willing to receive are you willing these are

rainy around us rain actually water element is healing and clearing energy I hope you can hear it a little bit yawning is just really releasing letting the body fully relax embodiment is a part of

i'm like we need that tangible reminder you know and he literally says everybody's soft in the middle like everybody's squishy in the middle it's like we're all filled with caramel he said that's bridget's favorite so that's why that's why the caramel reference there we go that is my favorite yes it is all right this has been so sweet this has been so beautiful robin robin you have channeled for us and helped us to connect in a way with self care and understanding what this means without lecturing us or talking to us but providing an experience on above life channel for me to share with others too and for me to enjoy like y'all i enjoy this this is like this is awesome for me and i hope you enjoy it too and and if you don't it's okay it's fine there's other videos to watch but oh my

Two more deaths, 351 new COVID cases in Sheboygan County. Voters head to the polls and the Sheboygan Board of Education passes budget. These are the headlines for Tuesday, November 3rd, 2020. Those stories and more are just ahead on Community News Review. This is Community News Review, a service WSDS-TV news content provided by WHBL. Good day, I'm Scott Maliff, and we begin with the election. The polls opened at 7 this morning for the 2020 general election. In addition to making a choice in the presidential race, Sheboygan County residents will choose between Republican Glenn Grothman or Democrat Jessica King for the District 6 congressional seat. The District 26 assembly seat is up for reelection and incumbent Terry Katzma of Usberg is being challenged by Democrat Mary Lynn Donahue. Republican Representative Tyler Vorpogel is unopposed for the District 27 assembly seat. The Sheboygan County District Attorney, County Clerk, Treasurer, and Register of Deeds are all running unopposed. There is one referendum in the county. The town of Sherman asks voters if recreational vehicles may be used on all town roads. The polls close at 8 tonight. If you are not sure where you should vote, you can visit myvote.wi.gov. The lines at the polls could be long at times today, even though many chose to vote early, especially with the coronavirus in play. Wisconsin is among the states that saw record early voting turn out this year. The Wisconsin Election Commission Monday said nearly 1.9 million people voted early or absentee this year. That's nearly two-thirds of all registered voters in the state. But not everyone who registered an absentee ballot has returned it yet. The elections commission says there are nearly 175,000 outstanding absentee ballots in the state. Those may be returned to your polling place prior to 8 p.m. today. Anyone in line to vote when the polls close will be allowed to vote. It will likely be some time before all of the votes in Wisconsin are counted. The Wisconsin Election Commission says people need to have patience with local election managers. Some communities will have their votes counted not long after the polls close at 8 o'clock. Others, most notably Milwaukee, will need a few more hours to process and count their absentee ballots. The expectation is that all of the votes will be counted by early Wednesday morning. The Wisconsin Election Commission has until December to certify the official vote count. Two individuals, both in their 60s, were added to the COVID-19 casualty numbers in Sheboygan County over the weekend, as another 351 new positive test returns were received since the County Division of Public Health reported on Friday afternoon. 43.5% of tests returned in that same period were positive for COVID-19. And with 163 recoveries, the active case count here rose by 188 to 1857. Of those, a new high of 37 are hospitalized. Deaths due to COVID-19 in Sheboygan County have now been recorded in one person in their 30s, one in their 40s, three in their 50s, six in their 60s, nine in their 70s, and by 11 that were 80 or older. Wisconsin added another 12,204 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the last three days, with 3,433 of those recorded in the last 24 hours. A total of 232,295 Wisconsinites have so far tested positive for COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic. Given that 8,846 test results were received in all in the last 24 hours, the positive return rate Monday was 38.8%. There are now 48,366 active cases of COVID-19 in Wisconsin. Five more deaths were recorded since Sunday, raising the death toll to 2,050. The Wisconsin Hospital Association reported Monday that another 100 persons entered hospitals for treatment of COVID-19 since Sunday, bringing the state's current COVID-19 population to 1,648. 352 of those were in the ICU, and 13 patients are being treated at the alternate care facility at State Fair Park in West Dallas. Another 352 patients were awaiting their test results, and 527 persons required ventilation to sustain life. Here in the southeast Wisconsin region, 90% of all available beds are occupied. Community testing in Sheboygan County for COVID-19, conducted by the Wisconsin National Guard, has collected nearly 1,700 specimens since it began on October 14th. Regular community testing is now being conducted at the Sheboygan County Aging and Disability Resource Center at 650 Forest Avenue in Sheboygan Falls, each Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. Testing is free for anyone who suspects they may have COVID-19, or who have been in close contact with a known positive case. Testing has been a major part of National Guard efforts in the COVID-19 battle, with over 747,000 specimens collected in Wisconsin as of Monday. But that's only part of the operation to track and control the spread of the coronavirus in the state. All those test results need to be reported back to the patient, and about 30 troops working at a call center have so far placed over half a million calls. The Sheboygan Area School District's Board of Education passed the 2020-2021 budget following a public hearing last Thursday. The total budget was about $152.6 million and resulted in property tax levy of almost $37 million. While the district's local levy increased by 1.5%, the tax rate went down nearly 7.7%. Over $3.3 million of that tax levy will fund the state private school voucher program and will be deducted from the state aid received by the district. Drivers using I-43 near the Manitowoc-Sheboygan County line can expect to encounter work crews today and tomorrow, as pavement repair is done on both the north and southbound lanes. The left lane in each direction will be closed both days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. Drivers are asked to be especially cautious when driving through work zones to protect the safety of the work crews. And finally, there's a reason it's called fall, considering that leaves have mostly fallen from trees and now all those leaves have to go somewhere. In Sheboygan, that's as easy as raking them into a curbside pile, but most other places in the county require that you collect them and drop them off at a recycling site. The city of Sheboygan has been divided into five leaf collection zones, one for each day of the week, and that will continue through Friday, November 20th. And if you miss your collection day, you can always leave your leaves at the drop-off site on New Jersey Avenue between the hours of 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday. You may find your leaf collection zone at SheboyganDPW.com. That's all for this edition. Tune in next time for a recap of local stories on Community News Review.


All right now, so we can start with the next presentation. We're going to look at the testing and lava. Hi, my name's Paweł Wieszodek. I work at Samsung R&D Institute Poland. I'm a member of Tizen Common, GNULINUX Distribution Release team. And since my occupation, I'm involved in lots of testing, lots of verification and validation of system images for embedded GNUX devices. Today, I would like to be your guide through a setting up of your own lava laboratory, because that's something we did to automate most of our work and to focus on much more interesting tasks that we have to do in our daily jobs. I will start with a short introduction to what lava actually is. Then I will move to the main section, which is actual setup of the laboratory. I would like to show you some tools that we used as well to simplify your work even further. Next, I will give you some hints on what can be done next. And if there's still time, we'll have a short Q&A session and some final thoughts. So what lava actually is. Lava stands for linear automated validation architecture and serves as an automation system for deploying operating system on not only embedded GNUX devices, but also any kind of emulator or virtual device. It can deploy root of us, kernel, DTB, anything that is needed to boot up your device. Once it prepares your device, it allows you to run boot, bootloader, or even system level tests on your device. But some extra hardware might be required for the full support of all lava features. And when actually does it come in handy? In the simplest use case, with just a single board, for example, big bone black, which is reference device for many open source projects, it's easy to manage just one on your desk. Also, with just a single instance, you don't have to worry about managing resources of your miniature board farms. But sooner or later, you might come across some new interesting target devices you would like to support for your open source project. For example, Arctic 10 in top left corner, or Android text U3 on the bottom. That's when things might get complicated. Adding to that, even new architecture like minibords, which run on Intel-based chip, might complicate it even further because all of these devices have to be flashed in a completely different way and support different communication ways between your test server and your actual device. What if you have to complicate things even more and have to manage a whole built farm, a whole board farm, actually, with multiple instances of each of your device? Well, that's where lava comes into place because it provides an abstraction layer for the whole board farm. This way, all the complex device management is put onto the lava itself and is no longer your own task. Also, many different devices have various capabilities. It would be much easier if you don't have to worry about finding an actual device that supports all the capabilities you need for tests. And with lava, you can only define what you need. And this way, if your board farm has a proper device, you'll get what you requested. Also, you don't have to worry about scheduling and dispatching multiple tasks on numerous devices. So if you would like to parallelize all of your tests and get your results quicker, that's what lava can provide you. And what you'll get out of the box is a unified device environment. So each developer does not see a board anymore. It's just a generic device which can be flashed with operating system image and which can get some tests to run. And all the developer sees is just a bunch of results that he gets with no worries about flashing device, about running tests on them, or how to get results back. Also, the direct connection to the devices is still available in lava. For example, we are hacking sessions or board overseer. But these topics are more complex than just setting up, which we'll be focusing on today. Lava is currently in use by multiple projects, by multiple companies. For example, by Linaro for their board farm in Cambridge, by Kernel CI for boot tests of current kernel trees, by Automotive Grade Linux and Debian as for GNU Linux distributions. So once we all realized what can we get from our own lava laboratory, let's go to the actual setup. Just for start, it's the best to focus on standalone instance with no remote workers, with no distributed environment. Standalone instance will allow to get the most of lava as quickly as possible. We'll also focus just on the virtual devices. And the tests that should be run at the beginning should be as simple as possible, just health checks if nothing else comes to you during the setup. Why is that? Mainly to reduce the complexity of the whole process. Also, it's best to familiarize with possibly new workflow of your testing automation procedures by not caring about some caveats of specific boards, but having just virtual devices. Also, it's much easier to understand lava concepts when you have the well-tested and quickly to setup environment on your hands. And lastly, although lava will allow you to reuse your current test cases, it's best to postpone the process of learning the new ways of running your tests on the lava board form. As for requirements for your own lava laboratory, the only one is to have Debian-based machine. Currently, support for Ubuntu is frozen. More details you can find in the link on the presentations. But for now, any Debian instance that you have to spare will be sufficient. Exactly, that's the host. If you'd like to run other Linux distribution on the actual device under tests, I believe currently open embedded Fedora Debian are supported out of the box. And other distributions will require a little tinkering. As for other requirements that you'll need to set it up, of course, system image for your Linux board, some health check job, which together with system image is already provided in lava by Linara. Also, device type template. And for QMU, which we'll focus today, it's already available in default lava distribution as well. And actually, the only file that you would need to set it up is device dictionary, which serves as a definition of the instance of your device. And for QMU, it's just three lines you'll see on the bottom, which only gives you an info which device template should be in use, assign MAC address, and set available memory. Thanks to the lava packages, all you have to do on your host machine is to prepare a database for the lava and let install meta package, let install lava meta package. All you'll need further is resolved automatically with dependencies. As for the common post install tasks, default Apache configuration is already available as well. And if you disable default pages and replace it with lava server configuration with enabling of two additional modules for Apache, you're all set to go as for the host configuration. Of course, you'll have to create super user for your lava laboratory. And finally, actually add the devices. Adding the devices consists of three steps. First of all, you have to add device type to your lava laboratory with the first command on the bottom part. Then you'll have to inform your lava laboratory about a new instance of your device. And finally, define all the remaining information about your virtual board instance with three-line file you saw earlier. Actually, two more things are to be done to have the whole system fully operational. You'll have to assign a worker for your device and define a health check so that lava can always verify that the device is fully operational. Once this is done, you're good to go. You may safely submit your test cases. Lava supports both CLI interface for the automation of the whole process as well as web UI for quick tests if you would like to check your new changes quickly. Having it all already set up, you might consider some tools I would like to propose to you, which may make your future deployments easier, quicker, and safer, having it all in a reproducible way. For start, I would like to show you the configuration management suite. For lava, it is equally well whichever tool you'd like. So if you prefer SaltStack, Chef, Puppet, or Ansible, it won't matter as long as you'll have a reproducible environment for all of your future deployments and the same exact configuration on both your testing environment and your production environment. So choose your personal favorite and Ansible roles should be published for setting up the fully virtual just starting lava instance in the next couple of days. As for the environment virtualization, which I believe you will be interested in having for your first lava instance, you might choose from different virtualization providers I would like to propose too, depending on how much time to have and how much flexibility do you need from the provider itself. If you need to have it set up really quickly, Vagrant would be your choice. It allows you to bring up new instances instantly and it provides you with a wide range of prebuilt machines via Atlas service. But do be careful with prebuilt images since you have no control on what actually is on the system image. If you would like to think more to adjust it to your needs, you might consider Ligvert currently maybe one of the most flexible tools for these kinds of tasks, still equipped with really user friendly both CLI and GUI tools. Once you have it all set up, you might consider your next steps and one of the possible follow-ups to setting up new lava laboratory could be adding completely new device types to lava. This time, actual devices, physical devices and all the documentation for doing so is already available. You might also be interested in writing your own test or migrating your current test cases to lava. Devote lava documentation has you covered as well. But if you'd be more interested in contributing to some other project, you might consider adding your lava instance to the Kernel CI project. You would, I believe, you would also benefit from familiarizing with both AGL test framework setup instructions and with documents that civil infrastructure platform testing initiative prepared. And if you'd prefer to watch and listen instead of reading, you might be interested in these three talks, a little more detailed introduction to Lava V2 by Bill Fletcher, or having direct access to your devices within lava laboratory instance by free electrons. You also could benefit from the next presentation that is right after this one by Jan-Simon Miller. Of course, if you would need any help, any further help, the exhaustive documentation is already available at each instance of lava laboratory. And if you'd like some direct contact, lava users show their questions on mailing list, either on mailing list or on linaro-lava.irc channel on free note. To sum it all up, I hope that I showed you that initial setup of lava laboratory is pretty easy, thanks to already in place package repositories for Debian platform. And that setup is instant once you know what to expect and what do you have to prepare before. Also, environment unification for various device types is something that you might benefit from in your automated testing process. And with lava, you get a test execution with no cost, and you don't have to manage all of the devices by yourself. Also, developers do not have to worry about managing devices all by themselves. This responsibility can be moved to the lava laboratory operators. And as for the final thoughts I would like to show you is that although it might seem intimidating at first, with such an exhaustive documentation as lava has, it actually has no downsides. When you get through it or you have someone who got through it earlier and shares just a quick start, you get everything you need. Also, there is absolutely no need to reinvent the wheel with modern testing laboratory management software. It's already there just waiting for you to use it. And although the initial cost might be high if you're not familiar with all these tools, the full automation always pays off in a long term. If you have some questions, I would be more than happy to answer them, since we've got still a few minutes. Yeah. Hi. So it's great that you're on. Yeah, sure. So good job. Thank you for a great presentation, and giving you a good introduction. It's better than we've done so far. There's another set of sessions planned next month. We're doing the next Lenora Connect event in Invection. And we'll be doing a lot of users forum and the movie videos. And if you're interested in lava, please, either come along. That might be difficult, but I will definitely pick up videos afterwards. And we'll be, of course, ready to answer questions. Suppose that you have two boards of Ceylon together, like a motherboard and a trial board. Each have an independent shell, and you want to write a disk that does some action on the one on the motherboard and another one on the trial board, and then see that things are fine. Is that possible in lava? I believe so, but I have not experienced user enough to answer your question fully. I believe that you would have to add two different devices. And if the child one has direct access, that there would be no trouble in that. And if it has not, so maybe some tunneling through the parent device will be required as well. If there is no more question, thank you for your attention.


In the editorial that accompanied the landmark study showing an extract of the spiced turmeric could be used to fight ulcerative colitis, they congratulated the researchers on performing the largest study ever on complementary or alternative medicine approaches to treat inflammatory bowel disease. But that's not saying much. Two of the only other high-quality trials tried aloe vera gel and wheatgrass juice. No significant improvements in clinical remission rates or endoscopy findings on aloe vera, but the wheatgrass findings were impressive. Wheatgrass juice in the treatment of active distal ulcerative colitis. The use of wheatgrass juice for treatment of various gastrointestinal or other conditions has been suggested by wheatgrass proponents for more than 30 years, but was never clinically assessed in a controlled trial until this study. The use of wheatgrass juice in the treatment of ulcerative colitis was brought to their attention by several patients who attributed improvement to the regular use of this stuff. So in a pilot study, they gave 100 cc's a day, which is between like a third and a half of a cup, of wheatgrass juice for two weeks to 10 patients. Eight patients described clinical improvement. One had no change, one got worse. Why had I never heard of that study? Because it was never published. They thought they were really on to something, so they wanted to do it right. So this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was designed to examine the effects of wheatgrass juice in patients with active lower colon ulcerative colitis. They found that treatment with wheatgrass juice was associated with reductions in the overall disease activity and the severity of rectal bleeding. 90% of the wheatgrass patients improved, and none got worse. They conclude that wheatgrass juice appeared effective and safe as a single or added treatment of active lower ulcerative colitis. No answer is available at present as to the site of wheatgrass juice action. Does the active substance get absorbed into the body and have some kind of general anti-inflammatory effect? Or does it act locally, right in the colon? How would you figure that out? Well, you could always juice in the opposite direction. A study like this raises so many questions. How would wheatgrass juice do head-to-head against other treatments? Does it have any role in preventing attacks, or only when you already have one? Should we be giving it to people with Crohn's disease too? What's the best dose? It's been over 10 years since the publication of this study, yet nothing since. How sad. I mean, yes, no one's going to make a million selling wheatberries, but what about the wheatgrass juicer companies? I wish they'd pony up some research dollars. Until then, though, wheatgrass appears to offer a genuine therapeutic advantage in this disabling disease, that is, if you can stand the taste.


The Yoruba Council of Youth worldwide has raised an alarm over the current increase in petroleum products calling for the resignation of the Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Melia Kiare while urging that businesses which solely rely on diesel are on the brink of collapse, the youth group says that the highest cost of transportation has also worsened and the level of inflation as well. Addressing newsmen in Abuja, the president of the council, Ola Dutun Hasan acts president Muhammad Abu Hari to intervene. The council also raised alarm over the importation of adulterated fuel which he said had cost unbearable damages to Nigerians. I deliver to the entire Nigerian populace to know that as Nigerians we cannot be shot down, we can never be intimidated. We were confronted with the Melia Kiare's team of security who intimidated us from presenting our peaceful demand. Our knowingfully world, the nation is biding hard on the premise of its excesses, of its incompetence, of its misplaced priorities and total neglect of the Nigerians' pains. Considering the total fallout of the astronomical increase in diesel and phone price of petroleum and a lot of other issues which was what led us to host in this all important rally. We will still maintain it as a rally because that is what we intended to achieve. To let Mr. President know that we are angry, we are frustrated and our citizenship is put at risk because of the daily atrocities being perpetrated by the new management of the Nigerian Petroleum Corporation led by Melia Kiare as the chief executive officer. It is in this regard that we would like to present formally what we intend to present to Mr. Melia Kiare which is a letter of immediate replacement as the CEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum.


This is exactly the reaction of any high school student. As far as the laws of motion is concerned, it must go the straight, right? Now I want you to take a pause here and notice, is there something the ball is doing which we are ignoring here? Don't think that you can notice here my dear friends that the ball while it is moving in the air is spinning. To understand this, we need to first notice few things. First of all, whenever an object moves forward and spins as well, then the relative wind velocity at one location is different compared to the other, okay? So imagine there is a ball that is rotating like this and moving forward. So the relative wind velocity over here is lower compared to over there point. So the pressure over here is a lot higher compared to there and because of that, a force imbalance is created and then a force gets generated in the perpendicular direction of the motion of the object and that my dear friend is creating the curve which you have seen. The Magnific makes the sports very beautiful. For example, sports like football, the lawn tennis, table tennis, everywhere you can see the Magnific effect but can we use Magnific effect to do something which is non-sports like? See there is a very beautiful experiment over here. The fan is switched on to flow the air across a cylinder and then the cylinder is rotated counterclockwise. I can see the vehicle is going on the left hand side and similarly when you keep the cylinder in the same way and rotate in the other direction, the cylinder starts moving forward. Now isn't it awesome? Now looking at this experiment you can surely think of a ship which is sailing in the water and imagine just imagine you have two huge cylinders which are rotating on the ship. Let's say ship is going like this and two cylinders are rotating and let us say wind is breezing like that and because of the rotating cylinder and the wind that cylinder could generate a force in the forward or in the backward direction. Now the trick is whenever the wind is blowing in your direction, you need to rotate the cylinder fast and that will help you save a lot of fuel. Over here there are four rotors. Whenever the wind is flowing across the ship and that is a favorable condition right? So I can rotate the cylinder in one way and that will generate a push to the ship in the forward direction and if I change the sense of rotation then the ship will get a push on the backside direction. Now looking at all of this what else do you think where you can use the Magnus effect for? One thing where people have used it and tried using it but failed was to creating an aircraft where they can have two three cylinders which are rotating like that and moving forward and as the cylinder rotates because of which there is a velocity difference from bottom to top and the lift get generated. But it has not been successfully commercialized. The reason was that even though the rotating cylinders were able to generate the lift but then also there is a lot of drag that was getting created. And having said that people are still trying to break through it and people have tried creating a lot of toys over it. For example you can see here this guy has just made a rotorcraft base out of the AFC buckets. You can see the lift is generated because the rotors are rotating but it has crashed because we don't have that much of technology. So are you the one who can successfully utilize this Magnus effect to create a great aircraft?
