Welcome back to another adventure, danglers. We are gonna head out to a new body of water today that's a little crazy, and we'll continue our East Texas camping adventures. But before we get rolling today, I gotta tell you about something big. So, Guggen Squad is hosting a tournament starting this month, and we're giving out $30,000 in cash and prizes. We wanna give back to you guys, and we wanna support our retailers that have been stocking Guggen products for years. So, here's what you need to do.  Go in there and buy any Guggen product. I mean anything. You can buy a pack of Bandito bugs, any plastic, any hard bait, anything that is Guggen Squad. Get your receipt and email it to this address right here. And when you do that, you're gonna get a secret password that's gonna allow you to enter our fishing tournament hosted by Fishing Chaos. Then you need to go back to fishing and submit your best five catches for the month. Winners of each region are gonna get $2,500 cash, and it's gonna be based on total inches. Even if you don't win the inches game, we're still giving out prizes and bundles to danglers that submit their catches. So, lip them, grip them, sniff them, and submit them. Get to your local retailer, get some baits, tell them the Guggen sent you, and get signed up for the Derb. Now, let's get back to camp and the dangle. Good morning from the Tailgate Fish and Freaks and here on Big Sam Rayburn. There's a Toyota series actually launching right now. They just finished all the boats, just finished going to their spots. And I am taking it a little easier this morning because we've been going hard the last couple of days on our little road trip. So just to catch you up, first day we fished a lake that we've never been to before, did pretty good, got on a little pattern there, continued that pattern into the next day, went to two more lakes, fished a really muddy lake, fished a clear lake, but you're not going out on Big Sam. Even though the water looked kinda calm over here, it would be very inadvisable to go out on a 20 mile an hour one day in this boat.  I went over yesterday, I'm not even sure how fast this current is going to be. This could be kinda buck wild. We're gonna cook up some eggs, and I gotta have some coffee, some fresh coffee, some eggs from the treehouse, get fueled up, and then we're gonna hit the lake. Y'all are wondering, how does he sleep in his truck? How is that even comfortable? Aren't you worried at night? And there's a couple of reasons I sleep pretty good. And number one is I try to find a good area, scope it out, look on satellite maps, look at campsites, see if they're close to meth labs or anything like that. I found that the Texas State Parks are really nice, and they also have showers and bathrooms. So after a few days' dangle, clean up a little bit. The other reason I sleep good is because of this huge pad that I keep in the truck. Truck camping, it is the deal. I mean, I even use a tent camping sometimes, but it's my canvas cutter. It's a four inch pad with a canvas around it. So keeps the moisture off the pad. Last night it was hot. I'm talking 65 degrees most of the night. I had to sleep outside of my sleeping bag, and I just kept a little blanket inside of there as well. I roll everything up in there with a temperpetic pillow, which is a game changer. And then I can sleep good. I've got these little windows that I can open on the truck cap, let some breeze through. So it's like right on the edge of getting to where it's gonna be a little hot for truck camping. But that just tells me, I'm in tune with nature. Windy up there, shallow grass, get that spinner bait bite, going sun. Four eggs from the Rackley Roost. Got our little fruit basket. I've carried this thing on so many trips, guys. It's just kind of nice to have a little fruit, a little basket. These are coming out. You got a nice crisp to them. Look at that, baby. This is all in a pan that I found in a creek. Vintage pan. Touch of butter. Bob Ross of bass fishing, that's me. Welcome to the show. Oh yeah. Maybe pop a few more chives in here. Oh my gosh. Little pop of color. Just look how non-stick this is. Wah-bam. Oh yeah. Flip that over. We got a little cheesy cheese omelette. Cheesy cheese omelette with chives. All right, that's gonna go right over our potatoes. Throw a little chalula in there. Wah-bam. Now all we gotta do is make our espresso, guys. We're gonna be super charged to go yank on them. The sound and the smell of that with this backdrop. Yeah, baby. That is living right in the great outdoors. I love coffee so much. I've missed it the last couple of days. I am fasting from Ferlint nicotine. Extremely hard to do. It's been a week now, today. And I am just jonesin' for something. So I gotta have coffee. I gotta have something. My favorite thing to do on the water is find a new spot that looks good. Like I just know I'm gonna catch them in there. Everything looks right. It's like matching a pattern. Just feels good. And then throw in a char or a zen or something. And just catch them. That just, oh, it's so nice to me. But it's not a good habit and I need to stop. I need to quit. I'm trying, boys. But I ain't quitting both at the same time. Gotta have my caffeine, gotta have my coffee. All right, y'all, after much driving, we have finally figured out where the ramp is and the water looks good. It's flowing out of the dam. We're gonna jump in here and I'm seeing water flowing around the tree, bases of trees, maybe there's some cypress, flipping, spinnerbait, meat and potatoes. It is ripping. I've run up here a few miles. I'm gonna put the motor in idle right now. Just idling really slow. I'm not even moving anywhere. Sitting still. I'm gonna put on a half ounce spinnerbait and we're just gonna drift a couple miles. There's a few backwaters that I noticed that I wanna stop into and I'm just gonna go. Just gonna use the troll motor to kind of direct me and just go. So let's shut this off and now we're really gonna drift quick. Here we go. Here goes the roller coaster bass ride, baby. Let's get him. This water is still pretty cold because it's coming out from below a dam. So we're low 50s. It's just gotta set him up on this stuff. That's why I wanted to fish here today because it's, yeah, it's difficult with the wind and current, but positioning the fish is way easier. They typically will eat. They're just in position. You don't really have to guess what depth they're in because I can't sit out here 10, 15 foot. They gotta be up here in less than five out of the current. Just gotta figure out if they want a little cricket. You know, give them a little Texas rig, or spinner bait, square bill. Square bill is kind of a nightmare drifting this fast. Trying to hit all these targets, but I've got full confidence in my zinger here. I absolutely love this rod that I'm using for doing this type stuff because of the action on it. I can just roll the tip on it. I just roll the tip and load it and shoot it in there using a stiffer rod. It's really difficult to do that. I could pitch it. You know, if I had a stiffer rod, I could pitch it like this. That works okay. But I can really just load that little tip and shoot that spinner bait in there and no problem. You know, it's a little soft for maybe trying to get fish out of deeper stuff. I got 20 pound line on here. I'm ready to rumble with them. Really test the limits, but I think it's more important to get the bait in the exact spot to get the bite over having a little stiffer rod thinking that's what you need to get the fish out of there. A bunch of bait fish right here.  This ought to be juice money. Oh yeah. I see small shed just all up in here. Where are the bass on that? Come on though. Oh gosh. Big log coming. We're about to have impact. This is not good.  Oh, I'm gonna take a few scratches on the old mercury. Not real life. That's good. Okay. I hope to self don't do that again. Okay. A little bit of near death experience. I had to wake you up. I thought my boat was gonna flip over. That log was so sturdy. It just, current just got me. Surprise. I didn't have a bite in there. It just looks so fresh, like freshly flooded, but I don't know. I feel like it's, the water's been up for at least a few days. I'm gonna run down a little bit. This wind is just kind of crazy on the stretch that I'm at. So I'm gonna run down the river and see if there's a spot that's a little calmer, you know? Just a little wild, a little wild right now. We'll keep grinding though. Wild river to fish. Well, I found myself another little backwater area. See a few bobbers and some trees. That tells me there's some history here. Somebody's been back here. I'm literally just in a forest. I'm gonna pine, I'm in the Angelina National Forest. I don't think bass particularly like pine straw for their bedding. I mean, I would. I don't think they do. The water's 55, it's not quite warm enough. I'm gonna get out of here. Look at this. Giant, giant pines. Insane. I can smell it. I can see it. It's a turd, it's a turd burger. I don't need to taste it. The water's just so high. It's so difficult to fish. People's docks are under the water. I'm not getting the good vibes. It looks amazing. It would have been perfect if the water flow was not as strong as it was and high and flooded as it was. Just way too much water, way too difficult. So I'm gonna go ahead and just go to my next hole. And it's about an hour and a half away.  We're gonna try to camp out tonight and continue the dangle. But out here, that's gonna be do-do. So let's head to another lake. Keep the dangle going. You know, I've been going through just walls of grass. We can see how this stuff is starting to sparse out. That's probably because the lake was down. The farther I go towards the bank, the less grass that there is. But there's little pad stems up there, okay? You see those little brown twiglets? Don't count them out. I mean, like, oh, it's not green. It's not, it doesn't look good. And this is kind of what they look like under the water. You can actually see some of the pads, the, you know, pancake-looking deals and they're flopped over. Some of these are dead. And this is what we're gonna fish. I am really feeling a swim jig today. Two of my favorite trailers are our Rattle and Chunk, which I'm probably gonna switch to here in a minute. And just the Junior Kraken Kraw. So I've got an Okeechobee Junior Kraken. This is a three-eighths ounce. I love three-eighths. I sometimes switch to that half ounce with the Rattle and Chunk, because it just pulls a lot more water. But with these water temps just being right around 60, I just wanna keep it kinda slow. What I noticed the other day, you know, caught some really nice fish, but a lot of them were like, when I was coming out of the grass or I was hung, the fish had an opportunity to really look at it for a second. The lipless bite was kind of weak. Like they really weren't pounding it, chasing it down really good. So I think with this swim jig, it just, it's getting those little ones that are just, they need it a little bit slower. They want it just a little bit slower. And I can even just kind of bump this thing on the bottom if I want to. I can drop it in little grass holes. It's just the jig you can do anything with. I love jigs. You're probably my favorite of all time. All right, I am going to, I'm gonna make a switch here. And I'm gonna make this recommendation to you guys. This is weird. This is a weird one, okay? But I'm telling you right now, this catches them. And it has caught big ones for me. Rattling chunk. This is gonna slow this bait down even more, which is kind of what I want right now. Rattling chunk. So this is a soft plastic that we put a rattle in comes ready to go for your jigs. And it's great for like traditional casting jigs and flipping jigs. But this is one of my absolute favorite trailers for throwing on to this little grass hero. And I know you're saying this looks dumb. Black and blue with a white trailer, that's dumb. But I'm a contrast guy. I like contrast on my jigs to plastics. Mixing it up and this right here in the water just looks like it's got that black and blue. But oh my gosh, look at this rattle and chunk on here folks. Can you see the rattle and chunk? It's got insane action even at low speeds. And it really helps me float that bait up. Like I can, instead of having to go down to like a quarter, I can fish this three eighths. And it will, it gives me a lot of weight where I cast it really far. And then it's got that water resistance where it just kind of keeps the bait up out of that veg where I need it. And right now, since they're not at full attack speed, I just want to slow the bait down a little bit and that white just adds a good color pop in the water. It's almost like a little surprise. It's like that, you know, you've got the black and blue up front, it's kind of incognito. And then the back's like boom, just white flappers going. There we go. There he is up shallow. Doesn't feel big, but there's a buck up there. He's up there. He's up there. And he wanted that contrasty chunk buck, fat, look at that in the, in the junk. That's why you got to have that braid, man. You just feel everything and it just cuts through, cuts through the doodoo. Let's just see what we got going on up here in the shallows, huh? Anybody up here, anybody home? I haven't seen a cruiser yet. That's what I'm looking for.  Okay, I'm going completely different direction here, but I just see all this rock and I had to, I had to get a crankbait out because it actually looks decent. I've seen a few fish in that eight to 12, just kind of hanging off this stuff. So I'll put a recon on and we're going to just make some long casts. I don't have the right line set up. I got 20 pound line. Oh, it just hooked up on a crankbait, baby. Made a decision. Oh gosh, it's a decent one. Oh, there he goes, man. I barely had him. He was down there in that deep grass. Oh, that's a new technique. We have not tried. I've only had one bite up shallow and I've already peaked. I haven't seen any cruisers up there. I just figured, well, I might as well just crank this out of the line a little bit. Fish on, fish on. We found a little bit of a hard bottom out here. Good, not quite as big. Little buck, showing that standard recon.  Seeing tons of activity in this spot that I'm at. I love it. I know I've caught a few fish here, but most of the activity is like right where it starts getting super windy and I just can't stay in it.  I even had one just rock it after my chatterbait. Like, it wasn't even close to it. It came out of nowhere. I was going to spank it. It just looks beautiful. Temper. There's also some big crappies hanging around on the tops of the timber. It's happening. Crispy is not made for this, so I got to get out of here, unfortunately. This is a silver bullet spot. I just watched that bass swimming out to get my bait and I just let it go under the boat and I got him. Hey, we got a fish. Swim jig bass. Water's warming up a little bit. Getting some bucks on the flat. So today was one of those days where they were just not active in the bedroom yet. This happens to me every year, but I think as soon as I see 65 degree water and full moons approaching, I'm like, well, I got to be on beds, right? There were males moving up, but a lot of those females, they were just not ready and they were still hanging back. But we hung in there in the crispy today, y'all. Nearly flipped the dang on both.   I like to grab my little pole and give her a dangle. So that is what we are gonna be going out and doing next. I can't wait to put some golden crisps in my mouth so you guys stay tuned for that. Happy fishing, everyone. And I'll see you back at the great outdoors for our next fishing adventure soon.

Okay, so welcome to this 1111 meditation and this is the 1111 of 2021 and as you all know this is a really momentous time right now where we're welcoming a lot of light energy onto the planet. This is actually connected with the Scorpio gateway, so this is occurring right near one of the four cross quarter points of the year and the time of the year where. The energies I won't go into the astrology of it, but it's just suffice it to say there are four times during the year where it's. The light energy is really accessible and this being one of them 1111 of course is connected with the whole idea of ascension and awakening so it just a super super powerful time and what i'm getting right now is that. As we all know we're in the midst of this tremendous shift and transition on the planet and this particular juncture if he's feeling just very, very powerful to me like. And the image that I keep getting is the God Horus and the whole Trinity of the Isis Osiris Horus. If you're not familiar with that just briefly the story is it's in an ancient Egyptian myth where Isis and Osiris are brother and sister and man and wife, and they kind of represent the sacred masculine sacred feminine and Osiris of course is. killed by his brother set who's like this dark King right so it's serious is the light King set is the dark King and then Isis has to go in this big journey down to collect the pieces of her husband bind them back together and and basically once she's done that. And they can see the sun so it's the holy Trinity and the story of this one thing that I found very interesting of all the story is that there was one piece of Osiris that she couldn't find it was lost and that was actually his penis and so she had to create another one for him and that it was only after that that Horus, the sun was conceived. I find that very, very significant because this is talking about a whole another level the penis being the generative organ right and we're talking about, you know, coming out of this time of kind of darkness where. Where it's more like the kind of the dark masculine, even though Osiris was a good King, it still was only at this level of like the power level the solar plexus. When she creates this this new generative organ and conceives out of that that is calling in the higher vibration of humanity. And this ability to move forward up into a new level of human evolution. And so what we're going to do today is just create a meditation that's actually going to be calling in this energy and a Horus symbolizes the ascended right and the sovereign that comes in and he's it's very much Christ energy. And, but the three of them together, symbolize also the feminine or the masculine being like the knowledge right this the natural law the sacred sacred masculine isis representing the feminine, and which is the kind of the intuition and the understanding. The feminine, and which is the kind of the intuition and the understanding when they come together in balance, then we have wisdom, and that is what Horus represents the wisdom and the knowledge and the light right light represents knowledge. Wisdom is knowledge and understanding and action. So, and that's what we're being called to as light workers as star seeds right remember as a star seed we are actually seeding this energy into the planet. And this is a very of course we know this is a very sacred sacred calling. So, what I'm feeling is this time right now is that we're really being called into stepping fully into our purpose now we're all at different points in our own evolution. We are actually physical and body of that sacred energy on the planet, we are aspects of well as aspects of great creation, and are right now being called to just physically bring these energies into the planet. So in this group guided meditation we're going to be working with the sacred Trinity energy and calling on these energies to grid the earth with light. And what it was shown was that each of us and and if you haven't yet type in the chat where you're from. We have people Nikki from the UK, Shiloh from the Philippines. Each one of us is physically sitting on the earth right New Hampshire Denver in a different place, and we're anchoring this light in to the earth. We're surrounding the globe, right, each one of us. Remember that we each vibrate, and we each have crystalline properties in our bodies so we as as human beings can act like crystals and if you have crystal beings with you I've got actually a whole lot of them here the one calling to me right now is this beautiful piece of If you want to hold a crystal feel free to do the Oh look, Mary is going to know what that is as gorgeous. Alright, alright, it's another floor right. If you have crystal beings that want to that you want to connect with. And you're welcome to do that as well that will help to amplify the energy or water if you have water near you that will help as well. But we're each going to be a point on this crystal grid. And what I'm what I'm asked to relate to you is that we're creating an actual fields on the earth. That this will be not just a redirection of energy, but we're actually creating psychic infrastructure here. That will strengthen the light holding capacity of the planet, as well as bringing light to much needed strategic points on and below the surface of the planet. So what what kind of got this meditation into motion was a was feeling into the energies of 1111 was a few weeks ago. And they started showing me this vision. They started showing me her circles or hubs of energy. And they also show me an image like a bird's eye. And they were showing me that there were eyes like these all around the globe. And that it felt very much like it was related to the eye of Horus which, which actually it's like the all seeing eye of God it's actually been kind of used in some dark ways to start this is reclaiming that that that all seeing the eye of Horus. There are many symbols that have been used in twisted and inverted rights and it's. I'm told that we can actually reclaim those it's there's, there's a tendency sometimes to look at symbols and say, oh that's been used by dark forces and to relegate that to the dark. And what I'm told is, no, a lot of these symbols are originally were very positive light symbols. And we can actually reclaim those. And we can bring light back to them and that's part of the healing of the planet. So this working with Horus and with the eye of Horus is, is part of that process of, you know, taking back what belongs to the light and bringing healing. So that's, that's part of what we're doing here with working with that Horus energy. Okay, so I was shown these eyes all around the planet. I was shown that these eyes or hub spots are all interconnected, and that they're almost like acupuncture points and that the earth on the earth and that they are vibrationally sensitive. So some of us here on the call may be close to some of these points, or even if not we all have this, this connection to the land that we're on. And so, so the points that that I'm referring to there, they all show up are meridian lines and lay lines on the earth and this vibration can be picked up very easily and sent long distances. So even though, you know, there's there's only a few of us here. There's still enough that the vibration that we have can be actually amplified and picked up by the earth. Okay, so we can be working with the, the frequencies of the earth itself. And I'm also told that those who listen because I will be posting this up later on YouTube so that those that listen are listening that this will be continuing over time adding to this grid, right, so that we continue to grow and amplify this grid throughout space and time, it's going to be encompassing the globe. Okay, so when we're looking at this quote unquote spiritual warfare right the spiritual struggle of polarity that is happening on the globe right now. This interchange between service to self and service to others factions right these points are really important because the same frequency will set that it sets into motion. One of these points is going to compound it's a fact the power of its influence and around the globe. Okay, so I think. Why don't we start with. I guess before we start into the meditation, like, let's just do a little visioning here. Because the other thing that I'm told is going back to the idea of star seeds that we are really this is the beginning of a very long unfolding and process. We're each seeding this beautiful light energy onto the planet, and that's what we're starting here will be unfolding over years centuries millennia. Okay, so I'm being asked to vision 500 years into the future. Okay, so we can start by just centering into the heart. And breathing to the hearts. And if you can envision yourself seated on the back of a great golden eagle, a beautiful eagle soaring through space. His feathers reflecting the stars his eyes shining like the sun. Feel yourself sinking onto his back. And before you, as he soars through space, begin, beginning to come into sight is this beautiful blue green orb. And as you come closer, just realize it's the planet Earth. And imagine that this is the planet Earth 500 years in the future. And as we begin to circle around and just see this incredibly gorgeous crystalline marble in space. As we come closer just become aware of the vibration of this future or feel how alive she is. Feel this vibrant energy emanating from this planet. This energy of immense bliss and joy, freedom, happiness and deep deep peace. Just feel, feel into that. And as the eagle soars begins to glide down into the atmosphere. Become aware of the quality of light on this planet. So much brighter the colors seem enhanced. So much light reflecting. This beautiful glow around everything begin to breathe in the air and breathe in this pristine purity there's an energy to the air that makes you feel alive.  Breathe in the divine frequency here. This is holy land beneath you. All of Mother Earth. And as we glide even lower, we begin to see the living things the great sequoias, blue whales in the ocean, all the creatures, raising their voices, you can become aware of this beautiful choir. Each being were singing in its own way, and you become aware of the people on the earth, human beings, how they're moving, how each movement in each word that they're speaking is so in harmony with the beautiful planet that they're coexisting on. And I have to see the details of their technology or how they're living to feel the joy and the happiness of rejoicing. Even in everyday life throughout the entire planet. This is our planet. This is our birthright. This is what we're building. 500 or more years into the future. These are not the end times that we're in.  Okay. So as we allow your golden cosmic ego now to begin to flap his wings to rise back up into the atmosphere and circle around the circle around the other way, counterclockwise now moving time back coming back to this time this place. I'm going to go in again. This time, bringing with us the awareness of the beauty that is to come knowledge that this pristine healed earth is within our reach as humanity. This is this golden vision vision that can be transferred from one human being to another built held in our third eyes, as we begin to move into the next chapter of our life as humans holding this vision. And so we begin my meditation calling in first our connection with the heart space. Breathing into the hearts light starlight from all directions beautiful platinum white light into the heart and breathing out gratitude. Breathing into the earth to the great creator, breathing in heart light, breathing out gratitude, allowing your entire heart space to fill with sacred light, eating out that gratitude. Breathing in light to your whole aura, filling your aura with platinum light. As you breathe out gratitude allow that aura to expand into your room. So in your room with platinum light breathing in more light from the stars. Super charging that light in your room with platinum light. Breathing out with gratitude, allowing that to encompass your entire home space. Breathing in again, and then breathing that energy that heart light down into the core of mother earth from the point on the surface where you're at anchoring down. Your seat bones sinking into the earth feel her drawing in that energy, drawing in that energy through you, energy of the stars, you becoming this conduit of light, pulling the energy from the universe around right to the core of mother earth anchoring and feeling her gratitude. She drinks in this light and anchors it into the heart of her being, feeling that light anchoring into the heart of your own being. Opening the heart now opening the crown to receive light from the central sun. Breathing in light from the sun to the heart space and gratitude breathing it down back into the core of mother earth. Connecting earth and some turning to the four directions from the sacred space of the heart calling in light beings from all directions. From the ancestors, the angels, the elementals, the dragons, unicorns, crystal beings, very well, all beings of light here to assist guide and protect here today, calling them calling them into the space and asking to be centered here in their own truth and to be aligned with the true directions true north, true east, true south and true west, standing here in sacred space seated on the back of your cosmic ego, beginning now to turn around to light in a likewise direction around this beautiful earth of ours, seeing the earth as it is now, feeling the light of the earth, seeing also the darkness, but knowing that the light is growing, but our hearts fully open now, becoming aware of points of light, it's beautiful planet and seeing these points of light like eyes all over the planet, sending love from our hearts into these eyes of the planet, knowing that we ourselves are anchoring in energy in an important point on the planet. And now the light of Horus, this falcon being, being of pure intention and focus, feeling that in the third eye, holding that there and calling the other two aspects, the risen God Osiris holding the master and asking to be aligned fully with the sacred universal laws of the universe, asking to be anointed with this knowledge to open ourselves to realizing the truth through the knowledge of natural law, recognizing this may bring up shadows, this may necessitate sometimes a journey into the deep, into the dark, trusting that the light is within us, we are anointed with the light, the star seeded beings, carry the light within us, within our hearts, that we are the light shining in the dark, and this world moves into a winter phase, a phase of darkness and a phase of deconstruction, understanding their deepest intuition, calling on this beautiful goddess Isis, bringing light and life into the animals, drawing forth bones and the forgotten pieces, calling them forth, bringing them together, those aspects of the old that are foundational, ancient enough to transcend and withstand any ordeal, calling them forth, finding them together and with the light of love, igniting, igniting these bones into life, breathing new life into what has, what is ready to release, allowing all the energies to go up and smoke, breathing new fire and new life into the bones, we are the architects and the builders of the new creation, we are souls of fire, here to pass the torch, one to another, passing the light to those in whom the light seems to have left reigniting the knowledge, the true knowledge, teaching the natural law and bringing a fresh new heart light into being, breathing this light as a blessing into the world, and first breathing this light into our own hearts, knowing that the universe is made of consciousness, there is one universal consciousness, we are each an emanation of that one, we are each a little light, giving this reminder that anytime we find ourselves in the darkness, all we need to do is look within and find the light and allow that to shine, and in shining the light, we're igniting life to those around us as well. And as this happens, feeling that heart light begin to pulse, feeling it pulse into the earth in your specific location, feel yourself in a column of light, a conduit of light, opening to the light above, connecting it with the beautiful crystal light of Mother Earth and bridging, bridging spirit and matter, bridging heaven and earth, become aware as you sit in your column of light, become aware of sending out energetic roots from your column of light through the earth, connecting with the columns, the roots of your neighbors, intertwining like a great forest, the roots of great trees, we are each a tree on this planet, intertwining our roots, joining root hands, passing the light, amplifying the light, creating this beautiful rooted network all through the structure of the earth. Feel too, from your crown, branches branching out, connecting one to the other, creating this intertwined matrix of light reaching all the way around the earth, intertwining branches, unfolding leaves, creating this shining protective canopy of light, blooming and fruiting. Now, placing attention on the planets and from where you're at the planets, looking around with the eyes of a falcon, opening up that third eye, calling on the energy of Horus, the awakened God, the risen God, the sovereign king. It is within each of us, looking out with eyes of falcons, with eyes of eagles, and find those spots on the planet that are calling for more light. And I'm shown a number of cities, calling Chicago, San Antonio, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Juneau, Alaska, Los Angeles, Hollywood, Greenwich, Glasgow, Singapore, Bombay, Dubai, Nairobi, Bern, Switzerland, Bonn, Germany, Berlin, Cologne, Perth, New York, Dallas, Nashville, Seattle, Washington D.C., Minneapolis, Baton Rouge. You can start to name in your own mind the cities that are calling for light, or any points, mountains, lakes, oceans, any geographical point on the earth, the North Pole, the South Pole, Mount Kilimanjaro, Mount Fuji, Mount Shasta, and with your eagle eyes, calling on your cosmic eagle, begin to direct light into those areas as well. And for each point on the surface of the earth that is now collecting light, there is a point in the upper atmosphere that is also collecting light. Leading light into the body of the earth and into the aura of the earth and allowing these points above and below to begin to merge in light, breathing light into the entire atmosphere of the earth. And then the atmosphere is this realm of air, of the wind, and also of water, and also the light, the fire, and calling on these elemental beings for working with the elements of air, water, and fire, working with them to amplify and regulate this light being brought into the earth, asking them to assist in bringing these energies where they need to go and in moderating them, assisting in the balance. And then anywhere where there's too much air, too much water, too much fire tempering it, equalizing these energies for a harmonious integration of light. The planet, asking also the angelic realm to assist in integrating these energies so that this transmission of light that the planet is receiving right now be integrated as gently as possible this time, knowing that any transmission of light will flush up shadow and asking that this process of shadow integration and light integration and healing between shadow and light on this earth be assisted by divine forces to be as painless as possible to be as smooth a transition as possible, and that any pain that is experienced be accompanied by deepest compassion, and also acknowledging the joy that is being made possible by this process of healing, asking that every being on this planet be blessed. Every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed. Keep going. All of us can say this. Unmute yourselves. Keep going, Marion. Unmute yourselves and speak together. Every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed. May every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed. May every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed, may every being on this planet be blessed. Thank you. Thank you. Opening our hearts in gratitude. And devote our bodies, our minds, our hearts, our souls to the highest and best good of every being on this planet, including ourselves, our loved ones and connections, our communities, mother earth, all humanity, all life, all cosmic consciousness. May we be gifted and open to receive the divine knowledge with discernment to know truth from illusion, the awareness, the humility to receive higher guidance, become one with our higher selves and the fortitude and courage to take action according to our hearts. And to illuminated minds, asking that our masculine and feminine divine be united within our hearts and that we step forward now with light in our hearts, lighten our souls, divinely guided and protected. And knowing that all is well, we are all each in the right place in the right time, giving thanks that this is so. We are giving all beings of light now to step back, knowing they are always with us, asking that any energies lower than light and love now be dissolved, we are each sovereign beings in service to the light. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And so it is. Thank you all for attending. Thanks to each one of you for taking the time today. And many, many thanks to those who are attending or listening at another time, another place over, over, however long, listening to this recording. And that we are each connected in our hearts, and that we are doing this, we are here seating and creating something new and beautiful on this earth. So thank you all. Many, many blessings and have a wonderful rest of your day. Thank you. Thank you. Namaste. Thank you. Namaste. Namaste. Many blessings. Namaste.


Hello everyone! Thanks for being here. I'm going to give you a presentation of why you know that we can summarize very quickly our system administration for everyone or self-hosting for everyone. This conference is going to be a bit technical, maybe a bit more than the other one, but I was making a conference for them. I hope it's going to be okay for you. Very shortly me, I'm a software developer, I'm not a system administrator and maybe a key point is that I'm coming for quite a political background in regards to privacy, net neutrality and this kind of thing has been involved in the QuadratureDunet, a citizen group that fights for those questions during three years. But before explaining you why you know, I'm just going to give you a very short history of what our way you know started because I think this is the best way to understand why is it like that today. In 2011, Bud-Bud-Nistan is owned by Mercer, and the QuadratureDunet here wanted the same. QuadratureDunet is not a system administrator, but Bud-Bud is a system administrator. They realized that replicating this kind of configuration was very hard and very boring at that time. So like every good developer, QuadratureDunet started to program a solution and they made the first reason in 2012 and starting at this point, they started to grow and grow and grow. So from email, we went to XMPP, to managing several domains, to application, which is just free software for web that you can start and you think like a WordPress, media wiki, docu wiki and those kind of things. Single sign-on, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But it's important to know that also these kind of people in France, we live in a very politicized context regarding this kind of development. There is a lot of organization that you see. Some of them were present today and the government has been very aggressive against this kind of thing, against Internet. So self-hosting, surveillance, privacy is a political context for France in the free software community since a long time and why NOS has been developed in that context. But what is why NOS? For you, I guess, most system administrator, why NOS is going to look like that or clean interface. This is the admin interface for why NOS. You can see a part of the feature I just seated for you. You can manage user. Every user is going to have his own email account by default. Several domain, install application, backup is integrated. So you see this is really like the kind of common system administration things that you do. This is just to show you the list of application that we got. So we get a solution for most of the common, quite huge scale that you get on the Internet. Not all those are here. So the list is not very interesting right now. But just to give you an idea, calendar, wiki, on cloud, we just move to next cloud, file sharing, forum, this kind of thing, chat. And just to give you an idea on how easy it is to use it, this is just the installation of an application. You just say, I want to name it like that. I just choose the domain of a domain I got. Domain is some domain of the same thing. And I just choose a path for the installation. And after it's custom option for the application. And you just click install. And that's done. And just some advanced feature that we got. Just to give you an idea again, diagnosis, monitoring is very simple for now, firewall, the kind of common thing that you find in system administration. And last but not least, for most of the users, for which we get signal sign on. So you sign only once and you get a nice interface with big button to get to your own application without having to log again. So that's why you noticed. And before going like in the next subject, I just want to rephrase it like that. Why you noticed is a thin layer on top of system administration operation that you do most of the time. Things you were going to do by hand are now done by why you noticed. And why you noticed is extensible if you need to. And this is both for the technical user that want to modify things that are not appear on the way we make things up to the over you kind of user that aren't technical experts in this kind of situation. We got several users that just never launched a terminal to use why you noticed. They still got a tech friend in case things go wrong. But I get several, for example, Puyu was doing the talk on three or from a soft never launched a terminal to manage his way, you know, server. Now I'm going to give a bit into the core for you know, our things are working for you to understand since we are at for them. One of the key point for you knows is that everything you do on the web admin interface, you can do on the command line interface. This is just a very simple example domain listing. So all the domain that I get on this application, same thing on the clear interface, you got a command that is called why you knows, why you knows domain, list of common and here this is just lists. And you have all those operations. So you are not trapped in the web interface. You can do things from the command line interface. And that's done because the way we program on us is extremely simple, actually. It's like a bit a very simple web framework. We just define an entry point. So this is the listing of all the domain and we declare it on the other side as a rest API entry point and as a clear interface. And that's all. And so we can extend why you knows very easily because the design is very flat, very autogonal. Just to give you another idea. Those are all the module for you knows that are just simple Python file with simple function definition in them. And that gives you a list of operation that you can use after. So that make a very, very simple architectural design and a very extensible one. And to continue in the architecture to give you again an idea on why you knows is made in yellow. This is the thing that we make in green. This is the interface for the user. And why you knows is this. This is the code I was just showing you. This is a simple Python thing, simple code that is going to manage your server and makes the operation that you ask him to do. So you know, two on three port, Python key interface, rest API. So for the user, this is two kind of operation. And the single sign on that's been designed as a Lua engine is module. So for engine is you can extend it programming. So you are convinced that you will get every request that come to your server. So this is a very good guarantee of having an efficient SSO. And every application depending on the configuration have a request filter by the SSO. So we are fine with that. And the SSO is made using app like everyone and every user in this database is going to get a mail and an example of the account. And to continue to give you an idea on how I know this is made regarding application. Some people understand application as package, like Debian package, but that's around the same thing at all. Applications is more like a layer on the top that give things like configuration, installation, removing, upgrade and this kind of thing. And again, why you know, we chose a very simple design for that. An application is basically a J manifest.json in which you declare your application. So name the kind of thing. And you list the argumentation that you want to receive at the installation of the application. I hope this is big enough for you to read. And you get your manifest.json. You get a script folder and in which you put several share scripts. Insta, remove, have a mandatory one. Viewer one are optional, but are recommended. Since once you modify your application, you want to make upgrade and backup restore are very cool too. To dig a bit inside of it, this is how we work. So the installation application interface, I've just showed you before. So you know, name the main insert and this kind of thing. What the kind of J manifest.json before, any insert script is just going to receive this kind of thing as bash variables. So to say it again, why you know, if you are a system administrator that knows how to install by end an application, WordPress or this kind of thing, this is extremely simple for you to make an application for why you know. You just need to run some very short commands like I want to register this domain in time or you know. And that's all after is the classical things you make. Use your own nginx configuration for this application, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So again, main point for you knows, fill in there on top of system administration, easy to use, easy to extend. So just I told you a lot of a feature already, but on the one that I haven't talked about, we know of let's let's encrypt integration for the main. We offered in DNS for three domain if you don't have anyone. We have an advanced feature for people that wants to modify on us. So we have things that we call RegenConf. So for regeneration, regeneration of configuration. So if we saw that you modify a configuration that we take care of, we're not going to override it. I just told you is the deep of that. Same thing we got hooks. So for every operation or good part of the operation, you can call script before or after if you want to extend what you know. And again, if you don't want to do any kind of thing that you don't have to. We also have firewall type to ban and we try to be quite good as possible on security backups for monitoring. As you can see code being very extensible, things are growing and growing and growing. So this is the slide on which I talk about the thing. I don't talk about because it's not the most technical part, but this is very important for us. This is how to count, but we can estimate that we get between 1,000 and 2,000 user from very technical people to not very technical people, from people that just manage a group of their friends, to people that just manage their own server. The community is very friendly and we really like it. We want to give more power to this community to allow it to contribute more to what you know, to be involved into what you know, to give feedback to us. This is the thing that we work on right now. We get 20 official apps. This is growing. There is 63 community apps that are written, declared as being working for a total of a double. Things are growing because we met a lot of work on the application. Again, this is easy for people to make applications. They want to involve the community to be able to add the things they want to. We are collective. We don't have any chief, any leader, things like that. We are self-organized. We have our own rule that we written together. We recently made continuous integration for applications to guarantee that when you got back up and things like that, things are going to work after. We made a huge, huge list of tests for that. This is our recent work on this side. We also introduced app level, so level of quality for application, because applications are a big part of Windows, but not the only one. We wanted to give both for our user an indication of what they can expect from applications and for our developer of applications a roadmap to follow and something that is motivating. They can just win level and when they reach level six, they can propose the application to be official. Our community gather in a forum and expect a chat room and this is quite active. We have translation, but not enough translation, so if you speak a thing over, then French and English, please come. We got German that is quite okay, but needed a little bit more of love, same for Spanish, same for Portuguese, and every other language that you want. There is Hindi too, but I think the people that was working on that stop and Sadiq for a lot of initiative started in France. Things are a bit hard to extract from France, because French people speak a very bad English, even worse than me. So yeah, if you come to Buenos Aires, expect French, that's not a disease, but expect this kind of thing. We try to make it more open for other people, but this is a work that takes time, especially because we touch people that are not extremely technically savvy, so those people are not the people that are going to speak English very well in France, but still we are very open to other kind of community. Just to tell you, what you know, as I've told you, is a thin layer to make system administration way, way more easier. So we are connected with a lot of other projects, so first one is the next talk that I'm not talking about. This is basically how to distribute where you know is with hardware, a bit like freedom box, but not exactly like freedom box. The federation of AcerCity of IP, that was a previous talk, some people are looking and say, hey, maybe we can use where you know to give you a package to create your own ISP very easily. From a software chat, this talk has been done before. Chaton is the collective of people that are making hosting of free software. On the medicine, like at the beginning, I saw one people on free that was saying, oh, I'm using where you know, so I think the thing I'm moving in that direction, where you know from us is also talking about where you know, as a way to move out of from us and to replicate from us for you or group of friends. Things are at the beginning, so it's in discussion, it's not guaranteed right now, but to give you an idea that's where you know start to look a bit like someone of a core component on how we can make this kind of thing. So installation, DBN, and you don't know the script, you don't know the script. EZO, Raspberry Pi Onimax, this kind of thing you can expect. And the thing we want to do is enormous. There is a lot, a lot, a lot of things to do, so we need help. We need help in a lot of subjects. As I've told you, we got a very friendly community. We try to be a very friendly team, not having fun doing that. We are all volunteer, we're not here to kill ourselves, but we all believe this is important thing to do. As I said, backend is Python, Lua if you want to work on VSSO, front-end, HTML.js. If you know design or UX, this is the kind of thing where you can make a good impact. Application, I just saw you, bash. Security, if you like security in code review, I have part of the code I want people to look at. Infrastructure, we have a DBN building toolchain, that is something that is not very easy to handle. So if you know this kind of thing, we would like to. We have some Ruby code running around, so if you like Ruby. And community again, community translation, documentation. This is the kind of the 20% that we are developers are not able to do. We do above 80%, but those are the last 20% that make a real difference for other people. And we really want to make a difference for other people. So if you like this kind of thing, join us. We are very open to that. And yeah, we got a beta testing, so if you want to test, the beta looks more like not real beta, but just make sure that in your super special edge cache, things are not going to break. Because we make a lot of code review and a lot of testing before merging anything in the beta, so it's not that much like a beta. And just to finish, here's a link of the things that might interest you. We got a developer, XMPPD room. So if you want to join us, just come and ping us. And those are the other links that might interest you. Thanks for your time. If you have any questions. Fine. Yep. No, not right now. So do we want to make our tools a Debian package? So the core of why you know, so why you know score and mean interface and all those kind of things are Debian package. We got your own Debian repository and we beat things ourselves. We haven't planned yet to be integrated fully into Debian. Because it's not the kind of thing that the team currently is able to end all and not maybe the kind of thing that we want to do because we have a very short recycle right now. Every two months, three months, something like that. So that's not the kind of thing we want to do right now. Maybe later. Yes. What's your strategy for backups? Do you try to push it in the cloud or on USB devices? Where do you want to put the backups? What is our strategy for backups? Backups is actually a very complicated subject. Right now we only generate a zip file that you get with all your things. This is not optimal. Right now the tool that everyone is using for making backup is called Borg. Borg backup. We plan to integrate it directly into your why you know. So you know this is a backup of SSH with the duplication, encryption and this kind of thing. Very well made. This is the idea right now. But backup, you know, backup is not that hard. Restoring is very, very hard. That's very, very, you know, everyone look at the Github of the school last week. So this is the kind of thing that we need to think a lot about and make a lot of experiment to get it right. But yeah. So that's our current strategy right now and we're working on that. Does anyone got another question? Yes. What application can be the dependencies of an application? Like I can write it in any language? So what is the dependency for an application? So right now it's just executing a file. So technically you could write it in another language that in bash. We choose to use bash script by default because this is the easier way for people to enter a commit application. We got prototype to launch Ansible to do application. So it's quite extensible. We are open to this kind of discussion. So just come if you want to make this in another way. Yes? If I already got an email server on one host, a medical server on another host, I want to integrate things. It would be handy to do that but you know how to install it on one server and make it manage software on another server? So the question is can you use on one server and manage another server with it? No. Right now, YNOS is a really thin layer to do the common things that you would do. We have a sheet of other things to do and this is not the kind of thing that we are looking right now but you know things are open so if you want to do this kind of thing just come in to talk to us. Another question? Yes? Is there any roadmap to port from a software application to the host application? So the question is is any road map to port all the application that Farmersoft has been promoting to YNOS? Yes. So there is actually a road map in RedMind thing. Yeah, we want to do that. We already got quite a lot of percentage of that. I can try to look at it but I don't know if this is going to work and this is RedMind and RedMind is not always very happy. So application issue but this is a real one. Yeah, so we are here. We got 13 applications on 31 right now and we really want to make to put all applications of Farmersoft inside YNOS and Farmersoft is also interested by that and they want to give one half a day or one day? Half a day or one day. Yeah, per week to look who is not here anymore who is the system administrator to do this kind of thing. So yeah, that's one of the ideas. If we manage to synchronize with Farmersoft that would be we want to replicate Farmersoft at your place. You can use YNOS for small community. Yes? So the list of applications that you saw at the beginning is just a story in a JSON file on our server. So I just took the log on Apache and just take like two days and just sort unique on the IP addresses and that looked like 1,600 and something like that. But things is really bring another way. And we're not really interested in spying to our users. It's not really the kind of thing we want to do. Yes? My question is a bit that of the previous question. If I already have something running on the IP address with the host and I install YNOS next to it we'll make a virtual host for and can also use multiple self-certificates or the other sort of case. So if I understand correctly is the question is it going to be like a virtual host? And it's going to fight with already existing Yes, I think it really depends on so is the way YNOS going to fight with my already existing installation? There is quite some chance it really depends on what you've made. For example, if you were using Apache you can just proxy Apache beyond Nginx because we use Nginx and you just have to decrypt in the SSO to say just to the SSO just don't take care about that. So there is a way to put YNOS in it but this has been thought at the beginning to not take part of your whole system but just make a first installation after you customize it. But if you want we can just talk about it see if it's possible. Yes? Pre-configure This is the tools on the security level and if so what is the governance around this pre-configuration? Do you add additional? So the question is do we add an additional security to the tool we package in YNOS? So this is led to the package developer we want so we are writing right now the specification and now you should make a good application in this kind of thing yeah we said we want good security but for now those are common classical UNIX practice or one user per application one database per application read only files for PHP because of PHP you know this kind of thing so we haven't went full crazy with APARMO or SLINIX or this kind of thing. Is there a user allow those users who are not specialists? Yeah so very very quickly so the question was actually if there is a server vulnerability in one application how do we inform our user and how do we end up with the situation? So there is a feed right now saying oh there is a security information you should upgrade this package or this way we have a right to the right to write to modify every application that are maintained by some people but once there is a security you see we make the modification as soon as possible I'm sorry time is up but yeah I'm supposed to be a development manager too can't allow this for me thanks everyone


I said at the beginning that we will need to create two forms, two graphical user interfaces. We have now finished the one for the main window, but we still need to create the form for opening, the create new shapefile dialog. So if I click on this dialog in the actual tool on this button, I get the dialog box where I am allowed to enter the name of the new shapefile and the field that should be added to it. So this we still need to create. So I'm going to use file new and now I'm going to pick dialog with buttons bottom as the template to use and then press create. So we now get a new form which already has two buttons created. And we have to set it up that it looks like the dialog box we want. First of all, let's change the title. So under properties, we go to window title and then we call this dialog create shapefile. And we save the whole form under the name we underscore new shapefile dot UI. Okay, now we have things set up. We can now start to add the missing widgets. And for that, I'm going to drop a grid layout at the top of this. And then I'm going to change the layout of the entire dialog box to a vertical layout. So as a result, we still have the buttons, the default buttons that were already created by QT Designer at the top right. And we now have the grid layout above them too that we can add the other widgets to. I'm adding the two labels first and I'm calling the first one new shapefile and the second one field for name. And then I'm adding the two line edit widgets like that. And finally, it's toolbar for the first row and that's pretty much it. So we have now created the GUI for the dialog box. We're just going to save it. And now we're done. So we have created two forms, one called GUI underscore main and one GUI underscore new shapefile. And these can now be compiled into Python code and then used to create the complete tool to combine it with the code that actually implements all the functionality needed. And that's what you're going to see in the rest of this walkthrough.


Hello everyone. Thank you for joining this presentation. My name is Astrid Haigma and I work as a researcher in the field of molecular microbiology at the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam in the Netherlands. And this presentation is going to be about a nanopore whole genome bacterial sequencing. So what is nanopore sequencing? In this way of sequencing, the strength of DNA is guided to a pore, a biological pore. And when this train of DNA is passing through the pore, there will be a difference in the current. And this difference can be measured and translated into a DNA sequence. So how does this work? You can see the pore, it's actually a bacterial pore in that has been genetically modified. And you can pass a flow through this pore and then there will be a current. Then when there is a piece also going through the pore, in this case an analyte, there will be a difference in this current. It will be disturbed. And when the piece is bigger, there will be a bigger disturbance of the current. So this is how the sequencing works. So when you pass your DNA strength through the pore, there will be difference in currents based on the T's and the A's and the G's and the C's that are passing through and that are different in size. And these disturbances can be translated into a DNA sequence. And it's not only the single basis but also stretches of DNA will be recognized and then also translated to a sequence. So in our lab, we use two different types of nanopore sequencers. We use the min-ion, which is a very small and quite portable and easy to use. Sequencing machine, you can see it here, it's about the size of the stapler. And you can connect it to a computer and then run the software and the sequencing. And we also use this grid ion, which is a lot bigger. It can contain five different flow cells, which you use for the sequencing. And you can run those five flow cells similarly. And also this machine contains the computer and the storage and it's updated more regularly. So that's also very convenient to use. And I like to use the grid ions because we have it available right now. So like I said, I work in microbiology, actually medical microbiology and we are interested in antimicrobial resistance. And that's why we started to use the nanopore technology. So what do we like to do with it? We would like to look at presence and type of resistance and this can translate directly to the patient. The level of resistance, mechanisms of resistance, this will help us also to understand how resistance is involving the risk of spread. And this is also in relation to prevention of spread in the hospital setting. The mechanisms of spread began for prevention, but also for knowledge. And to answer all this, we like to know the location of the resistant genes. Are they present on the chromosome of the bacteria or are they present on a plasmid? What are the surrounding genetic elements? Can resistance easily jump from one plasmid to the other, for example? Because of genetic elements and also the copy number of the resistant genes or maybe of the plasmids. We also like to know because it can say something about the level of resistance, for example, MIC. So here's a picture of bacterium and it has two types of DNA in its genome. It has the chromosomal DNA which is big and circular. And then it can have these plasmids which are smaller and also circular and they can be present in single copy or in multiple copy. And that can also be more than one type of plasmids present in the bacterium. And the plasmids are particularly interesting because resistance is often found on plasmids and then also this resistance is more easily spread because the plasmids can go from one bacterium to another, for example, through conjugation. So what are the benefits of nanopore sequencing? With this method you can sequence really long reads, what you put in your sample, that is also what it will sequence. So it can sequence up to 500,000 base pairs, but that's mostly seen in human DNA sequencing or eukaryotic DNA sequencing. In our case we find at least reads of 100,000 base pairs in our samples. So with these large reads it's more easy to close complete genomes, but also it's more easy to separate plasmids from chromosomal DNA. So there's fast library preparation. There's no need for amplification, so this saves time. You can do this in real time. So you can follow your sequencing and also get a resistant profile if you have a good run in about two hours. This will help also your patient. Furthermore it's portable and especially the min-ion is a low cost device, so it's available for a lot of labs. And then there are many applications. You can do what we do genome assembly, but you can also look at microbiota doing 16S sequencing or metagenomics. You can do RNA sequencing. You can look at methylation and also at proteins and metabolites. So this is also a good platform to have in your lab and to be able to make use of. A problem is that there is still a high error rate in the sequences. It's now about 8%. So if you want to go for SNP level, then it's not the best method to use, although if you do assembly, then also your error rate will go down significantly. And then another problem is although there is support from Oxford Nanopore Technologies and their software available, still, especially for genome assembly, you need by informatic tools and support, and that's not always available. So here just more a bit of an example about closed genomes versus context. So here you have a genome, for example, of E. coli. In this example it has the chromosome, which is about 5 to 6 million base pair. And then here's also the plasmid. But when you do the normal lumina sequencing, you get not the circular pieces of DNA, but you get context, you get pieces that can be smaller or larger. And for example, if this is the plasmid, it's not very obvious where this piece of DNA goes. If it's actually part of the chromosome or if it's actually plasmid. So this makes it difficult. Here's another visualization of an assembly of lumina data. You can see there are pieces that there are circular structures that may be a plasmid, but there are several options because there's repeats in this sequence. Here there's also the chromosome and also due to repeats, it's not very clear where all these pieces go and you get this kind of nice but not clear pictures. So what we aim for when we started to use nanopore in our hospital setting was complete assembly of the chromosome and the plasmids for our clinical isolates. We want to of course discriminate chromosomes from plasmids and we also want to do fast and accessible data analysis. So again, this picture, this is what we had. This is what we wanted. We wanted to have a circular chromosome and then separate the plasmids and then information of course of these DNA sequences about for example resistance. So when you start to use nanopore sequencing, you do have to pay attention that the quality of the DNA is important. You want to have high intact, high molecular rate DNA. Like I said before, what you put in the sequencer, that's also what you get out. So if you break the sequences or the pieces of DNA, then you also will get small pieces. So you want to be careful with preparation. You don't want to shake or vortex too much. And also because the pores are biological molecules, you don't want to have any organic components in your sequence run because this will disturb and damage the pores. So no ethanol or phenol in your sample. So what we are doing right now is we have used two types of DNA isolation kits, the DNA blood and tissue kit and also the genomic tip method. Both are from kaogen. And we use these methods for pseudomonas species E. coli, clefshella pymoniae, which are all gram negative bacteria, but now also we are experimenting with gram positive bacteria. For example, costumium edificiolae, and we also want to use staphylococcus aris. So this is what we use for library preparation. This is just a kit that you can order from Oxford Nanaport Technologies. It's the rapid barcoding kit. So you can barcode your samples. You can run with this kit up to 12 samples at once. And how it works is here you have your high molecular weight DNA, and this has the kit has some transposon that has adapters linked to it. So the transposon will integrate in your DNA and leave some adapters. And then there's another step of sequencing adapters. And this will help guiding your DNA to the pore and also will add the barcoding to your sample. So once you have prepared your library, you can start with the Nanaport sequencing. And then you get to the data analysis. So when I started Nanaport sequencing, I think we were really fast with getting our DNA in a good quantity and also quality and do the runs. But then we had the problem that there was no real good way to analyze the data yet because the software that we're using for Illumina sequencing like Genius or CLC Bio were not equipped to deal with the error rate that is seen in Nanaport sequencing. So there were bioinformatics tools available on JITUP, which is a place where bioinformatics make their tools public. But those tools, they kind of look like this. So it's not like software with an interface, but it's more a script. And if you are not a bioinformatics or you don't have any experiments with these kind of scripts, it's quite difficult to get into and to learn. And this is a really easy example, but those scripts can be really, really long and complex. So for me, this wasn't really working. So now fortunately, Genius and CLC Bio do have tools from last year on to analyze Nanaport sequences, but still these programs are quite expensive and not available for everyone. So when we started to get into the data analysis, we started to work with a group that was using Galaxy. This is a group in our institute with all these bioinformatics and they have made a Galaxy toolkit available in Galaxy. So in a tutorial by Willem de Koning, after me, he will also show you these tools and also how to analyze your sequence data. So this toolkit has different tools. It has for Nanaport, it has assembly, it has QC reporting, it has the ability to look for resistance. And it also has a tool to differentiate between chromosome and plasma DNA. So you can have those tools all separate and run them. And this is also in a tutorial. I think it's also important to be able to do this, to learn about the different tools and how they are working. But of course, it's also nice when you don't have to start every tool separately, but you can use Galaxy pipelines. So all the tools connected and with a couple of versus on a button, you can run your analysis. So that is what we were aiming for. So here is a workflow of an assembly that we use in the lab. It's a mini as a minimap workflow. And also we have made a pipeline from this. And again, this will be in the tutorial. So what it does is first you put your DNA sequences in this workflow. Then you can do an alignment step and it uses minimap for that. And then there will be the novel assembly with mini asm, which is an assembler. Then you do another round of mapping where you use the reads again and also your assembly. And then finally, there will be a consensus of those steps, a consensus sequence or context, which will be done by Recon. So the input sequences, there also data statistic reports will be generated. So you will have that. And then from this consensus DNA, you can do look at antimicrobial resistance using Starra MR. We have a tool that predicts whether a sequence is a plasmid or whether it's chromosomal. Then there's visualization of the assembly and we use Venice for that. And I mentioned the QC report already. So you can do this, all these steps one by one, but also now we have this combined in a pipeline. So we've made this pipeline some time ago, but we have also aimed to make it better. So there's a new assembler. It's been available also for a little bit of time. It's called fly. And it works a bit better than mini asm. So we now also have the same pipeline, but instead of the mini mini asm, we do the fly assembler. Then we also have a unicycler assembler that repeats the assembly to kind of polish your DNA, but it can also do hybrid assemblies. When you have Nanopore data and Illumina data and you want to at SNP level have really good sequences. You can do a hybrid assembly also in a pipeline. We added more function. For example, we added lost. We added an notation with the two proka. There's more visualizations. And then also we have some databases in an I report. I wanted to switch to the I report to just show what the pipeline does. So here is an example of an I report. This is an Ecoli that I sequenced. And the first you can click to the report. You can see different things, but let's just go to this, the read quality. So it gives you information about your input DNA. It gives you a graph, for example, here with the read length and the number of reads. So you can see, yeah, so you have an average of about 6,000 base pairs of read length. And then there's also extra information here. So for example, you can see the number of reads and this run was 65,000. The mean read length was about 8,000. The longer street here, almost 100,000. And here's something about also the quality. So you get this information in this read report. Then there's more information here. So this is the same, but there's more visualizations. And depending on what you like, you can look at this information. Then there's a figure of the assembly, the context. And this is a Band-Aids figure. So here you can see really nice assembly of the chromosome. And here's a smaller piece that looks like a plasmid and also is a plasmid. And there is some more information here about the context. So there's content one and the length of the content and also content two, the length of the content. So back to e-reports, looking at resistance. So this is another visualization where there's several information. So at the outer ring, you can see the context. So this is content one, the light blue, and this is content two. Then there's a ring that says something about GC content. If it's more GC, then it's, I think it's blue and if it's more 80, it's red. The green ring here, it's about the depth of your sequence. You can see, yeah, it's quite good, but you can see also some areas where not the depth was not as good. I think it's a log scale. So here's 10, this is 100 and this is 1000. So we are at depth of about 100. And then also what you can see, and I think it's very nice, is that here the plasmid, which is sequence two, it has more depth. So there's more reach of this plasmid and this also says something about the copy number. So here it's almost up to 1000 in depth. So this would mean that probably this plasmid, there is like 10 copies within each particular cell. So then there's information about the resistant. And in this case, all the resistance was found on the plasmid and not on the chromosome. And there's also a little table. So here you can see content one, which was the chromosome. There's nothing found in content two. You can see the resistance genes, what type of resistance is present. So then there's some annotations. So we built in a tool that completely annotates the context. I only show here 10, but you can go and look at all of them. And you can also download this and put it in some other software to look better. And then there's also Blast tool. It gives you a top 10 hit of each context. So content one and there's Blast and you can see it's in E. coli. But maybe you also want to look at the plasmids and a little bit more. So here's content two, which was the plasmid and it hasn't hit with certain plasmids. So you can also kind of identify what kind of plasmid you are dealing with. Okay, so this was the e-reports and I want to switch back to my presentation. Okay, so we are back at the presentation. So here I want to show you some results. And this is from the read statistics and also validation where we compared the D&Easy DNA isolation with the genomic tip method of DNA isolation. So we did this because we found that with D&Easy the concentrations of DNA were quite low. We need in our sample about 50 nanograms per microliter for an optimal run. But yeah, we got concentrations which were mostly below that. And that's why we started to experiment with the genomic tips. And you can see that with this type of DNA isolation using the same input material that we got higher concentrations and also mostly above this 50 nanograms per microliter. And then we did a small comparison where we compared the read numbers, longest read and medium read length, D&Easy versus genomic tips. And here you can see that the read numbers are going up, which is logical because you put in more DNA. But also the length of the reads is higher when you use genomic tips. So there is less breaks in the DNA and this will help with your assembly. And also the median read length went up when we used the genomic tips. So again, this will help in your assembly. So here are some examples of our assemblies. We did E. coli, Pseudomonas species and E. klepsiolapneumoniae strains. With E. coli we used strains that we bought at DSM. These are publicly available and these were strains that were known of that they contain plasmids and also resistant genes. So this was good for our validation. And you can see here that we get good assembly and also nice separation of the plasmids in these strains. Here there is the old piece which is not clear where it should go. But overall we can differentiate between chromosome and plasmid. Pseudomonas species was a bit a variant. Here you can see pieces, you can see assembled plasmid circular plasmids. Here you can see one piece which was a chromosome and again another piece which was not circular but we could identify it as a plasmid. And here again you can see chromosomal pieces where here it's not clear where something should go. And here another smaller piece which was again a plasmid. Emit klepsiola it can contain several different plasmids and we could see that back.  A bit less assemble an example of an assembly but again full circular plasmids here. And again here a nice example where everything was completely assembled especially only for this one that was still a piece. So I think it worked really well but maybe you do want to have complete assembly or maybe you also want to go to SNP level for your sequence data and then it's good to combine your results, your Illumina and your Nanopore results. And you can use a workflow with the Unicycler assembly for this present in Galaxy. And here an example we did DNA isolation of plasmids. We used purified plasmids for this sequence run. Here is the Illumina results. Here is the Nanopore results with already some nice complete and circular plasmids. But then we did the hybrid assembly we found another small plasmid that we couldn't pick up with Nanopore. And then another result here again the Illumina and Nanopore was not so good as in this case but again when we did the hybrid assembly we were able to really get those circular structures and also discriminate the different plasmids from each other and localize the resistant genes. So in conclusion I think we got really good results with whole genome sequencing using a Nanopore and also the assembly of course. We used the DNEASY kit and the genomic tips for DNA isolation and we got a bit better results with the genomic tips but also the DNEASY kit gives us sufficient assemblies. For library preparation we used the rapid barcoding kit but there are other kits available that you might want to explore but we have good experience and also it's really fast this rapid barcoding kit. Then we have put diaphragmatic tools in Galaxy in a Nanopore toolbox and we also created pipelines for assembly and further analysis of Nanopore sequence data and especially focused on resistance. So we get good assembly of the chromosomes and the plasmids. We can discriminate between chromosomal and plasmid DNA. We can detect and localize the resistant genes and this all if you have depending a bit on the amount of reads that you put in what the assembly can take from about 10 minutes to one hour so that's quite fast. So and unfortunately they are not available for everyone yet but you can contact me if you are interested but we have made new pipelines and there's also new tools they are available. So we have pipeline with the fly assembler and also combined with extra tools that I showed you in the e-reports in our newer versions of the pipelines including visualizations, annotations and last functions. So there's here some publications that I want to mention from our group. So from the microbiology but also from bioinformatics. This is NanoGalaxy so this is about the toolkit. This is a publication actually not on assembly but on Nanopore for Microbiota analysis 16s gene sequencing and this is a paper about our experience with Nanopore sequence and the lessons that we learned when we were introduced to it. And actually we also created another pipeline which is not a Galaxy pipeline but it is and it has an interface and it's quite easy to use once it's installed and we have submitted this paper about it and it also compares the Minioz and Minimap assembler to the fly assembler and also shows some better results with the fly assembler. So this is submitted and then there is a paper submitted about MCR1 carrying classmates in the hospital settings that we did in collaboration with some microbiologists in our department. Okay then I would like to acknowledge a couple of people and our funders. So from our department medical microbiology and infectious diseases I'd like to acknowledge the BORA which helped setting up the Nanopore technology and also did several runs. John Hayes which I collaborated with and also provided a part of the funding. Then from clinical bioinformatics which together with us helps with development of pipelines and necessarily necessary tools. So Helena I worked together with her more recently about with the building of the newer pipelines and adding the newer tools. Willem and Saskia developed Minioz and Minimap pipeline and also adding the tools in the Galaxy Toolbox and then Andrew Stubbs which is a supervisor of clinical bioinformatics. And then for funding we got some European funding for a project called Taylor Treatment where we started Nanopore sequencing pretty much also based on 16S sequencing. Then I got some money from the Dutch Society of Medical Microbiologists for validating the tools and the sequencing and also for building the newer pipelines and then now we are in a project called JPI AMR. This project is funded by JPI AMR and the project is called SEC for AMR where we also are involved in bringing the tools to the public and teaching about the tools and it's all related to resistance. So I'd like to thank you for listening to this presentation. I hope you enjoyed it. I'm available for questions if you have them. Also we can make some of the newer pipelines available to you if you are interested but I think it's good to first go to the tutorial and start to work with Galaxy and start to understand the different steps. And then if you've done that then you're free to contact me and you can maybe newer pipelines available too also. Okay, thank you very much. Bye-bye.


The question is from Ella Beasley, what are the best weighted exercises for building abs? We have a guide on training your abs and we talk a lot about weighted exercises and how best to build abs that show. So this is, it's a free guide, it doesn't cost anything. It's at mindpumpfree.com, we'll make sure that we link it. But in terms of this question here, why would anybody first off want to build their abs? This is something that I learned later on again in my training career. I was one of those people that I had to get to seven or eight percent body fat to have a six pack. I just, I don't store body fat on my arms or my legs. They're almost always lean. But if I do, it's right on my abs. And I just, I was not one of those guys that at 10% had a six pack. I had to get lower than that. And even then when I was relaxed, I didn't have, I was always envious of those guys that had abs or girls that had abs that you could see when they were relaxed. You know what I mean?  And I was like, man, I wish I had that. And I couldn't figure it out. I was doing high rep exercises and twists and all these crunches and it just wasn't working. Then I realized, why don't I build them? Like if they get a little bigger, they'll stick out more. So that's what I did. I started doing weighted exercises for abs and they stuck out more to the point now where I have a visible six pack around 10 or 11%. So I don't need to get quite as lean to have those abs show. Now the question is, what are the best weighted exercises? By far, one of my favorite is a good old fashioned decline sit-up. Just do a decline sit-up, curl your way up real slow and you'll feel those abs build. And it's because the reps are really low. So. Now to that, I think it's important to talk about the importance of first making sure that you have good mechanics with abs because in fact, I got tagged on the guys over at squat university did a post. And I think the post said something along the lines that crunches were a waste of time. And for most people are either hurting themselves or not doing it correctly. And somebody was like, you know, send it right away. Of course, I get tagged or that stuff sent to me. And I said, well, I haven't read the post. I don't know what he exactly is talking about, but I could make a case for why crunches can be worthless for some people. In fact, when I think about my average client, I would have to say that more than half of them did not do crunches correctly. Most of them were so hip flexor dominant that they were using more of their hip flexors to crunch up or sit up in an exercise. And so if you have really poor mechanics or you struggle with feeling ab exercises in your abs and then you go and load it.  Yeah, you're gonna end up hurting. And that's what actually what the statement was, was that crunches hurt more people's backs and I think that they help people build abs or something along those lines. And so, you know, and Sal alluded to our free guide, it addresses that talk set in there. We also have great videos on our YouTube channel that we talk about addressing that if you have hip flexor dominance and how to work on that before you do abs. But that's important. It's important that you get really good non-weighted control of your abs and you can feel your abs working because I can make a perfect sit up and fail at like five reps by just going slow and controlled and slowly rolling each vertebrae down as I open up and make that extremely difficult and challenging for five to seven reps before I load it. And I think too, like this is one of those muscle groups that commonly like people lose connection with. And so it's very easy to think that just going through the range of motion that you think is preferable for a crunch or that just like a hanging ab leg raise is gonna start building that back up again, but you don't have that like connection established to where you're actually directing the work to the abs. And so to establish that again is paramount before adding load, much like any other muscle or anything else that you've, you're probably more familiar with like in a curl, if I'm not feeling my bicep get involved, you're probably gonna try and stop and figure that out. So. Yeah, so here's the problem though. People do feel their abs, but they're not working their abs. Their abs are as a stabilizer, but not working them through a full range of motion. In fact, you take the average person, have them stand up straight and just tell them to do pelvic tilts. See if they can do that. See if they can articulate. Right, just bracing.  Just articulate that and they still can't do it. This is super obvious when you see people do leg raises. Watch someone do a leg raise, especially the one where you brace your arms at the bottom and to bring their knees up. And what they're doing is they're just using their hip flexors. So you have to understand what the abs do. The abs, when they contract, they fold you at your lumbar spine, not at your hips. And that's the thing. The average person watches a person fold. They look very similar if you don't know what you're looking for. That's right, they just see someone fold forward and they say, oh, that's an ab. You can fold forward at the hips and not fold forward at the lumbar. So it's really about working through that lumbar, getting the lumbar spine to flex and then extend. That's what the abs do, not at the hips. So once you figure that out, then you can start to add resistance. In fact, most people just doing that will give them all the resistance they need.  We've talked about this before.   So it doesn't take much when you do it correctly. Now, if you're somebody who's been training your abs and you've got great control of it and you can do 15, 20 perfect sit-ups, no problem, then okay, well then loading it I think is totally fine and encouraged and a good idea because a lot of people don't do that. And I would agree with Sal with what exercise I would start with.


Kentucky State Police were dispatched to a disturbance complaint in the Martin community of Floyd County. According to the arrest citation, 35-year-old Joseph Pedro Serrano was attempting to break into homes around the area. He then stole a vehicle and led troopers on a high-speed pursuit throughout the Hughesville community and then through Garrett reaching a speed of 105 miles per hour before wrecking in a small creek on Kentucky 850. Trooper Ball detained Serrano after he attempted to flee on foot and states that during the vehicle pursuit, Serrano passed approximately 10 other passenger vehicles in the wrong lane. Joseph Pedro Serrano is facing a number of charges including speeding 26 miles per hour over the speed limit, reckless driving, fleeing or evading police in a vehicle and on foot, wanton endangerment of a police officer, receiving stolen property, operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, third offense, and lodged in the Floyd County Detention Center.
