The document discusses the physiological and psychological responses of the human body to stress. It describes the fight-or-flight response where the body's sympathetic nervous system is activated, releasing stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. This causes increased heart rate, respiration, blood flow to muscles, and suppressed non-essential functions. However, the body cannot stay in this heightened state for long without consequences, as prolonged stress can damage health.

No measurement no improvement how to define metrics for cicd optimizationShuquan Huang
CI/CD is a software engineering approach where software is made available to end users as soon as it’s implemented and tested. There is no doubt that CI/CD is the key to implement successful DevOps. However, it’s not easy to establish a CI/CD pipeline and even much harder to optimize it. To continuously optimize CI/CD, we should find ways to measure its performance.
In this session, I’ll share how to define metrics for optimizing CI/CD through a case study consisted of Zuul, Jenkins, OpenStack, etc. The goal is to identify and measure the essential parameters that affect the whole process and finally help teams understand what happened during CI/CD, make team members focus on specific improvements. I’ll present a variety of metrics based on my own experience and show you how to create your own.
• How to determine the type of data you need to collect
• Metrics for individual and teams
• Metrics for the response of your features and products
• How to make better product based on your metrics

Good Lynx, bad Lynx: Document enrichment for historical ecologistsMarieke van Erp
This document describes a research project called SERPENS that analyzed newspaper articles mentioning lynx to understand how people's perceptions of the animal changed over time. Researchers developed a machine learning classifier to categorize articles into topics like natural history, nuisance, pest control, and others. The classifier achieved over 70% accuracy. Analysis of categorized articles showed shifting perceptions, with more recent articles discussing lynx accidents and its figurative uses compared to older economic focus. The project aims to help historians study how human-wildlife relations have changed.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Urgent Request and Call for Action for Ensuring Safety and Inclusivity at MITLevi Shapiro
We, 465 MIT Alumni, Staff, and Students, are writing to express our deep concern, fear, and disappointment regarding the recent protest that took place Thursday afternoon, in front of the MIT Stratton Student Center. While we fully support the principles of free
speech and the right to peaceful assembly, it is essential that we also prioritize the safety and well-being of all members of the MIT
community.
During the protest, a particular slogan was prominently displayed and chanted, which has raised significant concerns. The slogan
"From the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea, Palestine will be free!" has been a source of contention due to its potential
implications and the real safety risks it poses to Jewish and Israeli students on campus [See video footage attached]. This slogan
has been time and again associated with calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and has been used in contexts that
promote violence, which raises legitimate concerns about the safety and security of our Jewish and Israeli students and staff.
Furthermore, we would like to draw your attention to recent events that demonstrate the potential dangers associated with this
slogan. During the 2023 Israel-Hamas war, British Home Secretary Suella Braverman proposed criminalizing the use of the slogan
in certain contexts, recognizing the potential harm it can cause. Additionally, on October 11, ‘23, Vienna police banned a
demonstration, citing the inclusion of the phrase "from the river to the sea" in invitations, as it was seen as a portrayal of a violation
of Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
In addition to the use of these derogatory messages, several attendees of the event used hateful wordings and messages towards
Jewish and Israeli bystanders. In one case, a perpetrator aggressively held their bicycles as intended to harm a Jewish MIT student,
stating that “[your] ancestors did not die in the Holocaust so they could kill Palestinians” [See video footage attached]. In another
incident, protesters chanted “one solution, intifada revolution”. In the context of the on-going Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the word
"Intifada" means the armed and violent Palestinian insurrection targeting Israelis, including civilians, which resulted in the killing of
thousands of Israelis in the last few decades.
On Oct. 22nd, a statement by MIT CAA (Coalition Against Apartheid) came to our attention. In this document, MIT CCA states that
they "hold the Israeli regime responsible for all unfolding violence". They later call the October 7th terror attack a "response to
the settler colonial regime", and continue justifying it throughout the document.
In this matter, MIT CAA is justifying the heinous and barbaric crimes committed on Oct 7th. Furthermore, these statements have the
potential to fuel acts of aggression

Presenting to Investors & the Media.pdfLevi Shapiro
Presenting to Investors and the Media, lecture by Drew Levinson, LifeSci Communications to mHealth Israel. Three sections: Making a good presentation, Handling
interviews with reporters and Answers that resonate. PRESENTING TO INVESTORS AND THE MEDIA- Compelling delivery, Commanding a room, • Lasting Impact. A good presentation includes Information, Motivation and Excitement. Never put them to sleep. Audience impact includes content, credibility and delivery. Decisions are made leading to potential partnerships, winning business, so much more than a deck, your business, your brand, you. How to captivate begins with storytelling and conversation. More than features- benefits, humanize, positive impact. Don't complicate your message with jargon. Feel the passion- contagious, vision, determination. Know your audience- who are they, what do they know about you, how much do they know, interests, concerns. Articulate your vision- see it, feel it, believe in it. Take them on your journey- compelling narrative, make it personal, why are you doing this, inspiration. Your team- experienced, knowledgeable, aligned, execute. Risks and challenges- recognize, address, plan to mitigate. Test drive your room. What does it look like? Where is the podium? Where will I be standing? Where will you be sitting? Feel comfortable. Three parts to attention. The beginning- attention, interest, what's in it for them, entusiasm, preview. The middle- core, insights, challenges, solutions, relatable. The ending- summary, reinforce, messages, benefits, call to action, keep the momentum going. How to answer questions. The Four R's: repeat, reinforce, refer, remember. Talking to reporters- necessity; Good interview can enhance reputation; Bad interview can tarnish reputation; Preparation is vital. Shapes public opinion: Elevates your brand; Establishes authority; Showcases your business; A bridge; Reputation; Trust; Visibility. Know the reporter. Audience; What have they written; Previous stories; Questions asked. Concise- clear, succinct, engaging. Make it relatable: Stories; Anecdotes; Experiences; Examples; Metaphors; Connect. Honesty and transparency. It is okay not to know every answer. You don’t have to answer every question. Control the narrative. What not to do when talking to reporters. Come up with another way to say no comment. What to wear- solid colors, blues and grays, nothing distracting. Expertise, passion, vision, lasting impression, connections. High stakes, high rewards. Preparation; Know your audience; Deliver with confidence; Enthusiasm; Authenticity. Begin the journey. Engage in dialogue; Build relationships; Inspire trust and confidence; Valued; Enlightened; Motivated and excited.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
