Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: EA Images, published by Bob Jacobs on November 11, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. A while back there was a contest on this forum to design a flag for utilitarianism. Since getting money as an artist is very difficult, I entered hoping to win the prize money. However, after I submitted my design, the organizer changed the rules making my design retroactively ineligible. The organizer later deleted the posts, which not only means that I can no longer get the prize money, but also that my work is no longer visible on the site. Therefore, I decided to make this post to showcase not only these flag designs, but also some other works I made for EA but hadn't posted on the forum before. Flag of utilitarianism: Yellow stands for happiness, that which utilitarianism pursues White stands for morality, that which utilitarianism is The symbol is a sigma, since utilitarians care about the sum of all utility The symbol is also an hourglass, since utilitarians care about the (longterm) future consequences If you don't like the rounded design I also have a more angular design: Logo EA Brussels: It displays the Atomium, a famous building in Brussels: Logo EA Ghent: It incorporates elements from the logo of the University of Ghent (where I organize my group): And here is a banner I made for the facebook group (In Dutch you write "Gent"): I also made a bunch of banners and thumbnails for sequences on this site (although a lot of them are uncredited) and the images for the discussion norms. Lastly I made a symbol for slack/scout-mindset and moloch/soldier-mindset: There is a balance between Moloch (which I think of as the forces of exploitation) and Slack (which I think of as the forces of exploration). Scott Alexander writes: "Think of slack as a paradox – the Taoist art of winning competitions by not trying too hard at them. Moloch and Slack are opposites and complements, like yin and yang. Neither is stronger than the other, but their interplay creates the ten thousand things." Here is a Taijitu of Moloch and Slack as created by the inadequate equilibria and the hillock: You can find a higher resolution image and a svg-file of this symbol here If you want a graphic design for your EA projects, feel free to message me.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community   Historical Events 1661 Birth of Georg Joseph Kamel ("CAH-mel"), Czech pharmacist, naturalist, and Jesuit missionary. Georg was born in Brno (pronounced "burr-no"), the city where Gregor Mendel lived in a monastery and experimented with peas. In 1688, after graduating from a mission school in Vienna, he was sent to the Philippines, which was then a Spanish colony, and he ended up spending the rest of his life helping the people as a doctor and botanizing in his free time. Early on, he once confided in a friend. There is no physician here but four brorthers who know little more than my pair of trousers. Georg also worked as a pharmacist and a botanist at the College in Manila. He set up the first pharmacy in the Philipines, and he ran it according to Austrian standards. Georg Joseph Kamel was a true naturalist. He enjoyed learning everything he could about the natural world. His work as an herbalist led him to explore the medicinal potential of the plants he encountered, and he valued the way locals treated ailments. For instance, he believed that low doses of the Saint Ignatius bean - the source of strychnine - had medicinal value since Filipinos used it to treat cholera. But modern research has proved otherwise, and even trace amounts of strychnine damage the liver and the kidneys. Thanks to his work treating the sick, Georg was well known. He treated the poor for free, and he happily received many plants from grateful locals to plant in his medicinal garden. Between his own collecting efforts and the plants received from locals, Georg completed the first flora of the Philippines. Georg sent a copy of his flora to his peer and friend, John Ray, who, in turn, included the Philippine flora in the appendix of the third volume of his great work-  the Historia Plantarum - the history of plants. Georg also named several plants. He called the ubiquitous ornamental houseplant the kalanchoe ("kal-an-KOH-ee"), which was based on the Philipino name for the plant. Georg also was the first person to describe the tea plant or the Camellia, which is why Carl Linneaus named the Camellia in honor of Georg Joseph Kamel. He used Georg's Latinized last name, Camellus, for the genus name Camellia, which translates to "helper to the priest." Sadly, Georg Joseph Kamel died young at 45 from an intestinal infection.   1748 Death of William Kent (books about this person), English landscape gardener, artist, and designer. Before William's picturesque approach to landscapes, gardens were formal, following Dutch or French design principles that used a geometric and orderly layout. But William started out as a painter and not a landscape architect, and when he worked on landscapes, he approached them as a living canvas. He once wrote, All gardening is landscape painting. For William to make art out of the earth, he needed scenery, and he went to great lengths to accomplish his visions. He moved soil to create rolling hills; he used swaths of land for lush lawns, groves of trees for interest and contrast, and paths with benches for the characters/visitors that he envisioned arriving on the scene. William planned for people to walk or ride through his landscapes in the same way that people might dot the landscape of one of his paintings. William often placed elements in the garden against a green backdrop, a hillside, or a group of evergreens, to accent the piece's beauty. Much of what William Kent attempted to do has become mainstream. As gardeners, we often must contend with unattractive areas in the landscape: fences, sheds, or utility areas. Well, William Kent faced these same concerns for his beautiful landscapes. At Rousham, William employed a haha or wall sunken into a ditch instead of fencing to keep the gardens separate from grazing land. He also improved the exterior of an eyesore - an old mill - by adding gothic elements. He also added a folly to look like a ruin with three arches that William called the eye-catcher. William wanted visitors at Rousham to look off in the distance toward the eye-catcher and feel the expansiveness of the property. It was William Kent who said, Garden as though you will live forever.   1899 Birth of Gladys Taber, American author, columnist, and animal lover. Gladys wrote over fifty books that ran from fiction to cookbooks, children's books to poetry. She once wrote, Nothing decorates a room like books.  There they are, waiting to decorate the mind, too! She's best remembered for her series about life at Stillmeadow, her farm in rural Connecticut. She also wrote about her smaller Cape Cod home called Still Cove. Stillmeadow and Still Cove were the most common topics of her columns for Ladies Home Journal (1937 - 1957) and Family Circle (1959 - 1967).  Gladys was a gardener, and she once wrote, A garden is evidence of faith.  It links us with all the misty figures of the past who also planted and were nourished by the fruits of their planting.   Two other quotes offer a glimpse into Gladys's humble spirit. She wrote, As long as you have a window, life is exciting. and Traveling is all very well if you can get home at night. I would be willing to go around the world if I came back in time to light the candles and set the table for supper.   National Licorice Day The botanical name for licorice (books about this topic) means "sweet root," In Dutch, the word for licorice means "sweet wood." The secret to the flavor (which is 50 times sweeter than sugar) is hidden in the plant's very long roots and rhizomes. In Holland and elsewhere, children who grew up chewing on licorice root would suck out the sweet sugars and spit out the pulp. The licorice plant is a perennial shrub in the legume or pea family - don't confuse it with the annual trailing dusky licorice plant that gets popped in summer containers. In addition to its culinary uses, licorice has been used medicinally. The glycyrrhetinic acid in licorice causes the body to hold salt and water. Armies gave licorice to soldiers and horses when water was in short supply. In ancient times, Hippocrates used licorice to treat cough. Licorice is also used for digestion. It helps regulate the activity in your stomach. in fact, Napoleon used licorice to treat his tummy troubles. So there you go. Happy National Licorice Day — whether you enjoy it as a sweet treat or a natural aid to help you feel better.   Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation The Five Minute Garden by Laetitia Maklouf  This book came out in 2020, and the subtitle is How to Garden in Next to No Time. Laetitia is a garden writer, a garden communicator, and a content creator, and she's a very busy mom. Laetitia's active lifestyle was the impetus for her to develop ways to maximize short bursts of time in the garden. Now before you dismiss her book out of hand and say, "Five Minutes? That can't be done," Laetitia's book may surprise you. I think what Laetitia's done here is ingenious because this book is packed with five-minute ideas - tasks to do in the garden for big impact. So readers can pick and choose at random what they have time to do or what they're interested in doing.  Don't forget that we're using discretionary effort when we garden, which means we are making a choice. And while some of us may not be able to get enough time in the garden (as in, we would love to spend every spare minute in the garden), that's just not the case for everyone. I know, I know. But that's just the truth of it. Now, of course, not everything in Laetitia's book will apply to your garden. We all have different gardens but never fear — there are plenty of ideas in Laetitia's book. Laetitia's to-dos may spark even more ideas that pertain just to you, which is the whole idea. If you are at a loss for where to begin in the garden, this book is your mix and match idea generator. The bottom line here is that you can tackle your garden with little bursts of energy every day. And, that's way better than just throwing up your hands and saying, forget about it - because we all know what happens then - then you're not in the garden at all. Next, the garden grows out of control, and a doom spiral of plants and weeds commences, which becomes a problem for you and your garden and your neighbors. So I like this five minutes strategy. It's not overwhelming, and it's very, very simple. The other thing that I enjoy is how Laetitia organized the book. She's used those headings to group tasks together. So you'll see headings like Spruce Up or Chop or Nurture or even Project. Laetitia herself says that she tends to do one activity from each of those heading areas over the course of a week.  But Laetitia reminds us that the important thing here is just to begin - pick one thing at random from the relevant month in the book - and then go out and start on that because at some point, your future self will thank you, and you'll look back, and realize how far you've come in your garden. Come to think about it, that's exactly what I do in the summer with my student gardeners — just on a bit bigger scale. Instead of five minutes, I'm out there for two hours, with between six and eight student gardeners. It's actually not even two hours because we spend about fifteen minutes talking about the state of the garden and the day's tasks. Then we always spend the last fifteen minutes taking pictures of the garden and downloading what we just accomplished. Essentially, what I'm doing is taking Laetitia's book and then enlisting the aid of helpers. This is how I get things done in my garden despite my arthritis. To me, it is all about short bursts of time and helpers.  And, you know, taking it slow and working in short bursts is essential this time of year (in spring). Then when you are finished and come back into the house, you still have the energy to do all the other things that need to get done in your life. And you don't resent your garden - that's the last thing you want to do. Just this week, I was reading posts on Twitter from gardeners I know in England who are out gardening because spring has sprung there, and the flowers and the spring bulbs are blooming. Plants are popping up, and the garden accelerates very quickly. Of course, people are out in force in their gardens, satisfying their pent-up desire. But these Twitter posts are loaded with gardeners who also say, "Oh my gosh, I went out there, and I totally overdid it. Now I can't walk. I can't move."  And so now they have to pay the price for that, and they have to take it easy for the next couple of days. So, this is where Laetitia's approach is not only smart but effective, and it can spare you from potential injury. And, if you're someone who struggles with garden overwhelm and you don't know where to start or what to do, then Laetitia's book just might be the ticket for you. This is a lovely little book with an adorably illustrated cover. It's got all these cute little flowers in a garland, and then there are garden tools, like a shovel and a watering can. It's very, very sweet. So I also think that this book would be a great little gift book. For instance, if you have a garden club, this book would be perfect for giving to a new member; something to keep in mind... This book is 232 pages of garden to-dos month-by-month so that you, too, can enjoy a five-minute garden.  You can get a copy of The Five Minute Garden by Laetitia Maklouf and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $10.  Great deal. Helpful book.   Botanic Spark 1898 Birth of Clare Ellaine Hope Leighton, English American artist and writer. Although Clare was an excellent writer (and both of her parents were writers), she is remembered for her wood engravings of rural life. In 1935, she wrote and illustrated Four Hedges, A Gardener's Chronicle.  Clare's book is chock-full of beautiful images and her experiences creating a garden in the English countryside. Clare's book is full of little nuggets like,   It is better to have a few weeds and untidy edges to our flower beds, and to enjoy our garden, than to allow ourselves to be dominated by it.   She also wrote, It is a greater act of faith to plant a bulb than to plant a tree.   Finally, Clare shared a little story about a friend who had just lost her father in a moving passage about the therapeutic powers of nature. The massacre of dandelions is a peculiarly satisfying occupation, a harmless and comforting outlet for the destructive element in our natures. It should be available as a safety valve for everybody. Last May, when the dandelions were at their height, we were visited by a friend whose father had just died; she was discordant and hurt, and life to her was unrhythmic. With visible release she dashed into the orchard to slash at the dandelions; as she destroyed them her discords were resolved. After two days of weed slaughtering her face was calm. The garden had healed her.   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.

He's the new general and artistic director of The New Institute, that weirdly intriguing place for design and digital culture, with one of the largest architecture archives in the world. — As globalization brought us a climate crisis that we're just now beginning to fully understand, we find ourselves with a globe that isn't the borderless adventure land we once hoped it would be. In this episode, Chen shares his belief that manifestos are part of how we got into the mess that we're in. For too long we have been beguiled by their deceptive clarity. Instead, Chen shares his passionate plea for experimentation in design. — Chen studied architecture and anthropology at UC Berkeley, followed by design history at Cooper Hewitt in New York. On a whim he moved to China and was the creative director of the Beijing Design Week. He built a collection from scratch for M+, a brand new museum in Hong Kong. For the past 13 years, he lived happily in China and had no intention of leaving Shanghai. What drew this explorer to a young institution in Europe that nevertheless has a long history; a story that he has admired for years? — In Dutch, Verwondering means Wonderment.

I like it that we talk about hospitality in terms of practice. It means we get better with practice—but of course, getting better or becoming a great hostess is not the goal. Feeling secure and confident and at-east is so that we can better focus on the guest. That's what it's all about We've been fooled into thinking that hospitality has to do with us, the host, rather than the one who needs a place at our table. We may think we are in charge, but God will give us all we need when the time comes to answer the doorbell.   As CS Lewis wrote: “At this feast it is he Who has spread the board and it is He Who has chosen the guests. It is He, we may dare to hope, who sometimes does, and always should, preside. Let us not reckon without our Host.”   Recognizing that I'm not in control of most things reminds me to depend on God for my strength. As my friend, Bonnie told me, “It's God Who does the real work, anyway – the work that lasts for eternity.” Recently, I got to practice hospitality while allowing God to lead the way. I prepped and planned and then watched Him choose the guests in spite of my prepping and planning.   Recipe for Jamie's Chicken Corn Chowder, as promised: 4 strips of bacon 2 cups cubed potatoes   1 small diced onion 2 cups chicken broth 2 cups diced cooked chicken   1 - 8 oz can corn 1 8 - oz can cream corn 1 cup light cream  ½ t. pepper Chopped parsley for a tasty garnish Fry bacon until crisp.  Drain, cool and crumble.  Sauté onions in bacon drippings until tender (8-10 minutes).  In Dutch oven, combine onions, potatoes, chicken broth, and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, 15 minutes or so. Add chicken, whole corn, cream corn, light cream and pepper.  Heat thoroughly.  Garnish with parsley and crumbled bacon.   Join The Beauty of Autumn today for more recipes and inspiration Please, you're all invited, to my FREE Facebook group: Welcome Heart, Welcome Home!   And if you're ready to do one thing every day for 24 days to be ready for company on that last day, sign up here.

Why are there no bike lanes in LEGO City? That's a question Marcel Steeman, a regional councillor in the Netherlands, asked himself one day in 2016 while assembling some LEGO sets with his kids. As a Dutchman, he thought the lack of bike lanes on LEGO's thin plastic road plates was weird. Even weirder, The LEGO Group is based in Denmark, one of the most bike-friendly nations on the planet! How could a Danish company not include bike lanes in its city-themed sets? When Marcel submitted a proposal for new road plates with bike lanes to the company, LEGO rejected the idea, telling him the idea was too political. What's political about bike lanes? As anyone who's tried to change a street in a real city can tell you, the answer is everything. What happens when one of the best selling toys in history doesn't offer children the tools to build a world where it's possible to get around without a car? And why does it matter to a bunch of adults? ***This episode was sponsored in part by our friends at Cleverhood.

Turns out that this specific combination is pretty rare and only 2 to 3% of the population is designed this way. In this episode I share with you what deep insights this has given me, and how I truly gót that so many things out there just don't work for me. That I am going against my own design by trying to do it, let say, the generators way. It hit me the same way that multiple intelligences hit me years ago when I was studying to be a teacher. Oh, nów I get it! If I know what your learning style is, what your most advanced intelligence is, I know exactly hów to teach you what you want to learn! Now that I start to understand a little bit about Human Design I got this in a way bigger way. This is why so many of us are doing all the right things, the right steps, and take the right actions, but not for them...!! We learn from those who teach manifestation from THEIR design. But if that is not (Y)OUR design, it just cán't work! And because most of what we see, we see from the ones that thrive online. Who love to be out there, who are DESIGNED to work hard, who have their own motors running and energy for days. But I for one have not. I am also learning about specific manifestors and non specific manifestors, and about passive or active manifestation. This gives me so much information! Not just about my own way of manifesting but also about what and how I teach. For the first time in a long while I have a book out again. In Dutch. ' Pockets vól met JOY, een 28 daags experiment met de wet van aantrekking': https://www.pocketsvolmetlou.nl. The downside of writing books is that it is in print. It is written and there is nothing I can do about it anymore. So I can't add all of these new insights. HOWEVER.. the wonderful thing is that I can link any video or audio behind the pages with the appaview app that comes with it! So in a way I can course correct, because it is álso a course. I am so grateful for that, because there is just so much that I can help you with to actually manifest in YOUR UNIQUE WAY! And JOY is a UNIVERSAL FREQUENCY, but you have a personal taste for JOY. In this episode I tell you what I would have written differently and about so much more. Have a listen, and see what comes up for you. And please dó share it on social. If we want to make manifesting available for áll human design types, we need to make sure that they know it IS possible THEIR way too! And please dó leave a review on iTunes so others can find it more easily and read that there is way to manifest without hustle in their own unique style. Thank you so much for being my sounding board! Love Lou

Welcome to our second installment of Ask Jack, featuring the prodigious culinary talents of professional holistic chef Jack McNulty answering food-related questions generated by you, our community. Check out the show notes below that dig deeper into the topics covered on this episode. Set your dials to this station when Ask Jack #3 premieres on July 21, 2021, just in time to get great cooking tips for summer fun (at least for our listeners in the Northern Hemisphere)! Don’t forget to submit your questions for Jack by emailing them to podcast@overcomingms.org.   Now, on to this episode’s topics and questions:   What Shall I Eat?   First, a question from Annemieke in the Netherlands about peanuts, though what she’s asking about is no small matter for many of you:   In Dutch cooking, peanut butter sauce is quite common. To make the sauce you peanut butter. In stores, 100% peanut butter from raw peanuts is available and is unprocessed. BUT, on the OMS website it says: peanuts are defined as a ground nut and not recommended due to their higher saturated fat content. Some people replace the peanut butter with sunflower butter, tahini (sesame seed butter), cashew butter or almond butter or a mix of those four. But I’m confused about the sat fat and Omega 3/6 content of these different nuts and seeds versus peanuts. Jack, is it really a problem to have some peanut butter (from 100% raw peanuts) since we can eat also tahini, sunflower seeds and cashew nuts?   From Kiril in Bulgaria, let’s get to the slippery topic of oils:   Can we use grapeseed oil? And is it OK for baking too?   From Nick in Lincoln, Rhode Island, an important question about a really trending topic – plant-based meat alternatives:   Jack, are impossible burgers OK for people with MS who want to follow an anti-inflammatory diet?   Now on to canned foods, with a question from Duarte in Poland:   What's your view on canned legumes and fruits? Are there some to avoid? If so, which ones?   Helpful Tips and Cooking Techniques   From Marie in the United Kingdom, a question about coconut milk replacements:   She uses coconut essence and oat milk, but these don’t quite hit the mark. Any recommendations, Jack?   Still on the coconut theme, here’s a question from Ann, from the OMS Circle in Hertfordshire, UK:   What are some suitable substitutes for coconut oil in vegan recipes? Unlike coconut oil, olive oil doesn’t always work due to being liquid at room temperature. Jack, what do you think?   This other question from Marie in the UK may activate some pleasure centers in our listener’s food brains:   On the subject of chips, or French Fries for our American friends, she never used to eat them but her family, who also follow the OMS diet, often request them and she hasn’t succeeded to get them to really crisp up. Jack, any helpful tips?   Fun Recipe Ideas   Here’s a question from a listener in the UK on sour cream:   How can you make it at home in a whole food, plant-based way? Jack, any thoughts?   Now on to something we find very tasty here in the UK, but which isn’t always OMS-friendly: Yorkshire Pudding. Ann, from the OMS Circle in Hertfordshire, wanted to know:   Any recipe suggestions for OMS-compliant Yorkshire Puddings which replicate as near as possible the original in which the batter contains eggs and fat.  A particular member of her Circle in Hertfordshire always complains that everything she tries leads to Yorkshire Puddings as “flat as pancakes!” Jack, any tips?   Since we are on a sweets kick, Ann had another question that might be relevant to many of our listeners who love to bake:   How do you make cakes taste light and moist when many of the ingredients needed to do so aren’t OMS-friendly?   And let’s end this episode on a crunchy note:   Jack, do you have any recipe ideas for gluten-free crackers and snacks, or anything savory that packs a crunch?   Bonus Content from Jack:   The Bottom Line on Peanut Butter   Even though you shouldn’t use peanut butter as a dominant food source in your diet, it is probably fine to eat some in small amounts every now and then. Minor consumption of peanut butter is unlikely to have any major negative effects as long as you are also avoiding harmful foods like sugary sodas, trans fats and other highly processed junk foods.   Grapeseed Oil   Grape seeds are waste products from pressing grapes for wine or juice. There is very little nutritional benefit in the oil and lots of downside. It is an oil that is considered to promote inflammation. Consider alternatives such as unprocessed rapeseed oil, extra virgin olive oil or no oil at all!   Impossible Burgers   Impossible burgers are made from a large list of unhealthy ingredients. It is probably best to avoid these burgers completely. Look for 100% plant-based alternatives, or better yet, consider making your own.   Impossible Burger Ingredients Burger recipes on the OMS website Black Bean & Mushroom Burger   Canned Legumes and Fruit   BPA is the biggest concern when it comes to canned food products. BPA is a chemical used in making plastics which may accelerate formation of fat cells. 90% of BPA in humans comes from canned foods and processed foods. Choose foods that are packed in Tetra Paks, Jars or BPA-free cans… or make your food fresh!   Coconut Essence and Oat Milk   Coconut essence can be added to non-dairy milk to help replicate the flavor and consistency of coconut milk (or cream). It is helpful to add a thickening ingredient to the mix to create the right texture. I recommend blending soy milk, chickpea flour, nut butter and some coconut water or essence. Read my complete thoughts here.   Substitutes for Coconut Oil in Baking   Coconut oil is used extensively in the vegan world. Quite a number of vegan baking recipes rely heavily on the use of coconut oil. In most cases, substituting a healthier oil like unprocessed rapeseed oil or extra virgin olive oil works fine. To create a richer texture for pastries, consider adding a tablespoon of nut butter.   Get Jack’s Vegan Pastry Dough Recipe   Getting Crispy Textures on Vegetables   Crispy textures on vegetables are created by caramelizing natural sugars/starches on the surface. Caramelization begins when sugars/starches reach a temperature of 120°C (250°F). This is also the point when all oils begin breaking down, although harmful elements are not produced until temperatures rise substantially more to 190°C (375°F) and held at this point for 10-20 minutes. Coating vegetables with a light amount of oil is considered OMS-safe because the surface moisture evaporating from the vegetables will prevent the oils from rising above 120°C (250°F). The oil coating will also speed the cooking/caramelization process and prevent too much moisture loss from the vegetable. Crispy textures can be accomplished without oil, although the vegetable will taste dry, a factor that can be overcome by coating the vegetable with a dip or vinaigrette after cooking. Adding a starch to the vegetable surface prior to cooking (corn starch, rice starch, tapioca starch) can help create a crispier surface without adding oils.   Get Jack’s Oil-Free Baked Potato Fries and Tangy Ketchup recipe   Sour Cream Recipe   Here is how Jack makes a vegan soy sour cream:   250 grams (1/2-pound) semi-firm tofu (or firm silken tofu) 3 tablespoons soy yogurt 25 ml. (2 tablespoons) extra virgin olive oil (optional) juice of one half lemon 2 tablespoons apple vinegar 1-2 teaspoons sea salt   Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of a high-speed blender. Process until creamy smooth. Taste the soy sour cream and make any adjustments to the seasoning or acidic content, then blend again. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.   Yorkshire Puddings   This classic recipe relies heavily on eggs and fat in the traditional preparation. The biggest problem in making a light and crispy version is the technique in the classic version, which is essentially a deep-fried preparation in a small tin like a muffin tin.   The key steps in making vegan (or OMS-friendly) cakes moist and light are to follow these guidelines:   Make sure all of your ingredients are prepared and your oven is preheated. Measure all of your ingredients – preferably with a scale. Sift all your dry ingredients into a bowl. Mix your wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Use baking powder and/or baking soda as a leavening agent to replace eggs. Always include some acidic ingredient if using baking soda. Don’t use too much of either ingredient or your cake will taste soapy. Fats create a cake-like structure and aid in making the cake moist. Consider a nut butter as an alternative to oil. If using oil, replace butter in recipes by using 80% or less of the butter total. Always add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix just long enough to incorporate the batter evenly. Overmixing will create a heavy final product. Make sure the cake is completely baked. Underbaking will make the cake taste heavy. Insert a knife or skewer into the center of the cake. It should be free of any cake batter when removed.   Making Gluten-free Crackers and Snacks   The key to making a crisp cracker is to get the dough rolled out very thinly. Sandwich the dough in between two pieces of baking paper and use a rolling pin to get the dough very thin. Place on a baking tray and carefully remove the top sheet. Baking is usually at 200°C (400°F) for about 10-12 minutes.   Links:   Connect with Jack:  Website | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook   Coming up on our next episode:   Join us starting May 19 for the next episode of Living Well with MS for a very special and insightful interview with Dr. Sandra Neate, the Head of the Neuroepidemiology Unit (NEU) within the Melbourne School of Population and Global Health at the University of Melbourne in Australia.  The NEU is at the forefront of research into lifestyle related risk factors in MS and health outcomes, and the experiences of people who adopt lifestyle modification.

If, as expected, he re-emerges as prime minister after the Dutch election on March 17, Mark Rutte is on track to become the Netherlands' longest-serving prime minister. By mid-2022, he will beat the record set by Ruud Lubbers in 1994 and, assuming everything goes according to plan, he will serve until at least 2025. Yet, despite being a veteran on the European stage, Rutte remains an enigma - even at home. As Petra De Koning discovered from conversations with the prime minister's old friends and associates for this political biography, Rutte has never been in a relationship, cooked a meal or even had a political strategy. In a European Union without the UK and soon to be without Angela Merkel, Rutte is emerging as the spokesman of the EU’s pragmatic, fiscally conservative, free trading, and Putin-sceptical wing. But who is he? How has he refashioned his liberal party and Dutch politics, and can he reshape Europe?

Designing 145+ IQ tests for hyper gifted children with Femke Hovinga

Femke Hovinga knows from experience which challenges hyper-giftedness can entail. Despite a hefty portion of potential, she underperformed for years and developed fear of failure. Teachers thought she was a strange bird, classmates teased her. Femke obtained her diploma by hanging and strangling, after which she followed courses in journalism and business administration. And finally: challenges became opportunities. She developed through participating in student life, politics and administrative work. She trained as a talent coach and from there she specialised in 145+ IQ. At Talentissimo she guides children, parents and schools. She also gives lectures, both at Talentissimo and on location. In addition to Talentissimo, Femke is engaged in developing an IQ test for gifted children with SCALIQ. She also works with gifted adults at InterIQ, a recruitment and coaching company for gifted talent. Femke is listed as a professional in the Quality Register for Giftedness.TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:Gifted children might be underachieving in school as they are usually bored with the regular curriculum in school.Gifted children experience asynchronicity where they have the cognitive function of older children, teens or adults but they are still children with children’s interests.Gifted children might not learn how to deal with challenges & failures and they might not learn how to study.In Dutch the 145+ IQ group is called “Hyper Gifted”One in a 1000 is in the category of 145+, it is a very small group and it is difficult to find research data on this group. The people in 145+ are more sensitive and they do not have a lot of developmental peersPeople need to mirror with other people in order to develop ourselves and to learn what is normal and what do do in certain situation. People in the 145+ category do not have a lot of people to mirror with.There are big T traumas (big traumatic experience) and little T traumas (small trauma accumulating). If you are so different from the normal population you probably have a lot of those little T experiences.The people in the 145+ category need to be seen! And in order to be seen you must be first recognised.To know where you are on the gifted spectrum helps 145+ realise why they still might not fit in with members from Mensa as the IQ range and difference can be huge.The traditional IQ test are not made for gifted children, they start too easy.Autistic children have lower IQ scores on traditional IQ tests than non-autistic children. With the new IQ test from SCALIQ this seems to be not the case anymore.The SCALIQ IQ test does not include time pressure and also detect the full potential of dyslexic, dyscalculia or color blind childrenThe SCALIQ IQ test is like testing the motor of a car to it’s full potential, not just how fast the car is going on the road (traditional IQ testing)Gifted people can have resumés which make them look a bit crazyThe NAGC (The National Association of Gifted Children in the US) estimates that 25 % of children who fall into the gifted range do not finish their education!In the Netherlands an educated guess estimates that 33 % of gifted people do not work in a place where they can show their potential. 33 % are working in a place where they do OK and only 33 % work in a place where they thrive and can use their full potentialIf we want to solve the big issues of today’s world, such as climate change, Covid-19, world peace, we n

Podcast Posse! It has been a while since I sent you a voice message. I was all in creation mode and still driving with my Gas Cap on. But today I felt a longing to talk to you. Finally, it's happened to me. (guess what song is the lead jingle for this episode ;-) ) and I wanted to share it with you, so you can have it happen too! I have distilled 3 steps to manifesting anything your HEART desires. Turns out I have been trying to manifest everything my HEAD desired. Those are not real desires.. These 3 steps are the basis for my new project. The Million Dollar Idea that I talked about in the last podcast episode I did, but didn't want to share yet. In this episode I do spill the beans ánd the means. It is also the reason why the podcast is now called the: IN THE POCKET PODCAST. I have considered creating a new channel for the new project but it felt more honest to just keep changing and growing in plain sight. I think it is good to be able to follow growth, getting of the path and back on. So for now the Wild & Free Society Podcast, turned Joyride to Freedom Podcast, turns into the IN THE POCKET PODCAST. In Dutch 'in the pocket' means that you have it under your belt. that you've gót it, that you own it. It has come forth from my own need to not overwhelm myself with all the manifesting tools out there. I became a seeker much more than a finder, I understood everything only as a concept because I was speed reading through the books and was already back at my dealer for the next (NY Times #1) hit before I actually did the assignments in the book.. I binged on reading, listening and learning. Always more more more input input input. Podcasts, books, courses, more more more. a total O.D. of a 'spirit junkie' But manifesting is something you FEEL. If I felt anything it was... OVERWHELM, Anxiety, frustration. My new project is born completely out of my own need to have ONE subject and/ or idea in the pocket first before I COULD go to the next. One chapter, one thing at a time. Implement it and only then move on. So if you can relate, this podcast is a great listen. I share the 3 steps to manifesting ANYTHING. I also share a little lesson I am doing right now, consistently, with GREAT results that MOVES me daily. And I talk about who I am REALLY here for when I follow my HEARTS desire and not my HEAD'S desire. If you are Dutch, you are more than welcome to join the IN THE POCKET CLUB. It's priceless. I go LIVE 3 times a month for completely free. I share the lesson of scarcity I learned this month after depriving myself of giving MORE just because it is for FREE. Business advice is so often totally LOST ON ME, because it is just not who I want to BE. You can sign up easily here: https://app.ruzuku.com/courses/37464/enroll So, If you have the time and FEEL like it, hit play and put me in your pocket! Inwards, thén onwards! InJoy, Lou P.S.

Joyrider! On my Inner Roadtrip I recently discovered something very interesting. I knew that we have a conscious and a subconscious mind. But what I didn’t know is that until about the age of seven we are mostly ónly subconscious mind. The subconscious mind does little to none filtering and correcting. It takes everything in like a sponge and will believe everything you tell it. It can’t make a distinction between right or wrong, true or false. This is why young children will believe everything we tell them. It isn’t until we are about seven years old that our analytical mind begins to form, which allows us to make interpretations and conclusions. At the same time, our inner world of imagination tends to feel just as real as the outside world. We have one foot in each world. That is why, as kids, we like role play so much. As kids we can play pretend for hours. As a kid, I did. Endlessly. Until we are about seven years old everything we see or hear goes straight into the subconscious mind and comes together in the form of a (limiting) belief. And those beliefs are what determines our behavior and our way of interpreting reality as adults. Can you imagine?! That means that I am running my business with my seven year old self as the CEO of my company! 95% of our behavior today is coming from subconscious mind, 95% is coming from the invisible programming that was installed in us up until the age of seven. 95%! This episode is about raising & re-educating your Subconscious Self. And how I reconnected with my Subconscious Mind better known as my Younger Self, A.K.A. Charlie. to be more conscious about the subconscious. Read more on my blog: P.S. For my Dutch Joyriders, keep an eye on your virtual doormat. I will drop you a recording of a Magical Manifesting Motel Masterclass that we had at the motel the other day, to go even deeper into the subconscious mind. In Dutch, as a THANK YOU GIFT for keep following my Joyride to Freedom, while I foloow the signs that got me to transition from Dutch to English. P.P.S.

Here you can see the Coxing Kill flowing over conglomerate outcrops amid large boulders. The Coxing is a major stream flowing down from Lake Minnewaska two miles upstream from here. It flows out through the Trapps Hamlet and the Clove, where it can be seen along Clove Road and again at the Enderly Mill site. In Dutch, the word “kill” means river or stream; the word “clove” refers to a deep, mountain valley. The Coxing Kill was the chief source of water for the people in the area. About a mile downstream at Split Rock (Coxing Trailhead) was a water-powered sawmill, called the Enderly Mill, which produced many of the boards and beams used in the construction of the Trapps Mountain Hamlet houses.

Nothing brightens up an email like an emoticon. But is it appropriate to include a smiley face in an email to your boss? Also, what do time management experts mean when they say you should start each day by "eating the frog"? Plus, the story behind the phrase "the whole kit and caboodle," and some book recommendations for language lovers. If you see the trash can as half-full, are you an optimist or a pessimist? A puzzle involving breakfast cereals, the difference between adept and deft, and the origin of the political term solon. And what in the world is a hoorah's nest?FULL DETAILSIs it appropriate to use emoticons in business emails? After all, you wouldn't write a smiley face in a printed letter, right?

Judith Newman has more observations about emoticons in business correspondence in this New York Times piece.http://nyti.ms/pKguDN  Why are non-commissioned Naval officers called petty officers? After all, there's nothing petty about them. The term comes from the French petit, meaning "under, less than, or ranking below in a hierarchy." Petty comes up in myriad instances of formal language, such as petty theft, which is a lesser charge than grand larceny.To summarize something, we often use the phrase all told. But should it be all tolled? The correct phrase, all told, comes from an old use of the word tell meaning "to count," as in a bank teller. All told is an example of an absolute construction--a phrase that, in other words, can't be broken down and must be treated as a single entity.What do parents say when they tuck their children in at night? How about good night, sleep tight, and see you on the big drum? Have you heard that one, which may have to do with an old regiment in the British Army? How do you manage your time?

This is also known as carrying guts to a bear.http://bit.ly/stoi5nFrom Puzzle Guy John Chaneski comes a great game for the breakfast table in the tradition of such cereal names as Cheerios and Wheaties.

It's similar to that between mastery and artistry. Adept often describes a person, as in, "Messi is adept at dribbling a soccer ball." Deft, on the other hand, is usually applied to the product of an act, such as "deft brush strokes."There are some words we just love to mispronounce, like spatula as spatular, which rhymes with "bachelor."If someone plans to make hay of something, they're going to take advantage of it. It comes from the idiom make hay while the sun shines, based on the fact that moving hay can be a real pain when it's dark and damp. Martha has a follow-up to an earlier call about why hairstylists advise clients to use product on their hair. At least in the food business, product often refers to the item before it's ready for consumption. For example, coffee grounds might be called product, but once it has been brewed, it becomes coffee.If you see the trash can as half full, does that make you an optimist or a pessimist? Since it's half full of garbage, as opposed to daisies or puppies, it's questionable. On the other hand, in the tweeted words of Jill Morris: "Some people look at the glass as half empty.
