**THE POWER OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS OVER YOU** You are welcome to arrive 15 minutes early for refreshments! At the lecture "The Power of the Subconscious", the speaker will clearly and understandably explain topics such as: * What is the exact definition of the Subconscious Mind? * How does it inflict unwanted feelings and anxiety in you? * What determines how much pressure it exerts on a person? * What exactly is the goal of the subconscious? This is not just a lecture where you sit quietly and listen. It's interactive and LIVE, so you can ask questions at any time. And the most important topic: **HOW DO YOU TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR SUBCOUNSCIOUS!** This group is sponsored by the Dianetics Life Improvement Center.

NOTE: Chris will join virtually, event is hybrid. Aspire isn't just for .NET — it's a polyglot orchestrator that can wire together Python, Node.js, Go, Java, and C# services under a single AppHost, with automatic service discovery, connection-string injection, and a unified observability dashboard. In this session, we'll explore that idea hands-on through seven sample applications that range from Flask and Django to Go and Java. We'll start with how Aspire solves the polyglot problem: the service-discovery chaos, configuration fragmentation, and 15-step READMEs that plague multi-language repos. You'll see how AddPythonApp, AddNpmApp, and AddDockerfile let you bring any runtime into Aspire's lifecycle, and how environment-variable conventions replace hardcoded URLs and scattered .env files. We'll also look at OpenTelemetry integration so that distributed traces, structured logs, and metrics from every language land in one dashboard with no separate tooling per stack. As we walk through the demos, we'll cover the practical patterns that matter most to real teams: dependency ordering, health checks across languages, connection-string injection for Redis, PostgreSQL, CosmosDB, and Kafka, and what it looks like to debug a request that crosses from a React frontend into a Go or Spring Boot backend. Finally, we'll step back and talk about the Aspire CLI workflow, what a production-ready polyglot repo looks like, and how Aspire's resource model maps to CI pipelines and deployment automation, including where Azure fits into the picture if that's part of your story. \-\-\- Meet and greet at 6:30, presentation begins at 7 PM ET.

Patapsco Valley State Park is a 16,000-acre property located near Ellicott City, MD. The park's 70 miles of maintained trails showcase its industrial past with remnants of mills, factories, railroads, and dams. However, thanks to time and the efforts of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) the park now has a wealth of natural resources and outdoor recreation opportunities. We will meet at the Greenbelt Metro Station at 9:00 AM and carpool to the trailhead. Drive time is about 30 minutes. There is ample parking at the trailhead if you wish to drive there directly. You are also welcome to organize carpools from other locations in the comments section below. Please post a comment if you are willing to drive. Carpooling saves the environment and makes friends. ## **Trail Facts** * **Difficulty Level:** Moderate * **Length:** 8.2 Miles * **Duration:** 4-5 hrs * **Elevation Gain:** 840 Feet * **Permits:** None * **Parking:** Greenbelt Metro Station (39.01120664490315, -76.90872786797485) * **Dogs:** Must be leashed and under control at all times. * **Trailhead Coordinates:** 39.21854296363126, -76.76109184600885 * **AllTrails Map**: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/rockburn-to-cascade-falls-and-ridge-trail-5abc9c3?u=m&sh=kucj8c **Trail Details:** While Patapsco State Park is so large that it is broken up into eight named areas, we will spend most of the hike in the Orange Grove area and walk through a very tiny section of the Avalon area. Our hike will mostly go through forested areas, which should make for nice hiking even during the peak of summer. We will also pass by Cascade Falls and will have the opportunity to take a dip in the Patapsco River, which will let us take a break from the heat. Please bring a change of clothes if you are planning to get wet. On the way back, I plan to stop at Jailbreak Foodworks in Laurel, MD. The address is 9445 Washington Blvd N Ste F, Laurel, MD 20723. **Itinerary:** 9:00 AM: Meet at the Greenbelt Metro Station. 9:15 AM: Depart for the trailhead. 10:00 AM: Arrive and begin the hike. 3:00 PM: Finish the hike, drive to Jailbreak Foodworks, and eat. 4:30 PM: Depart for the carpooling location. 5:00 PM: Arrive at the Greenbelt Metro Station. *(Setting the end time to 6:00 PM to allow time for the unexpected.)* **LIABILITY NOTICE:** Please remember that this group operates under the common adventurer model.

Come join us to discuss our July pick "Tusk Love" by Thea Guanzon! Book description: A merchant’s daughter who yearns for adventure gets more than she bargained for when she falls for a broodingly handsome stranger in this saucy romantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars. “A true delight of a book! Spicy and heartfelt—this one is a winner all around.”—Katee Robert, author of Neon Gods As the daughter of an ambitious merchant, Guinevere’s path has been predetermined: marry into a noble house of the Dwendalian Empire, raise her family’s station, and live quietly as a lordling’s obedient wife. But Guinevere longs for a life unbounded by expectations, for freedom and passion and adventure. Those distant dreams become a sudden reality when her caravan is beset by bandits, leaving her guards slain and Guinevere stranded alone on the dangerous Amber Road. Her only chance of survival is to travel alongside Oskar, the aloof half-orc who saved her during the attack. Unlike Guinevere, Oskar’s path is not so set in stone. With his mother dead and his apprenticeship abandoned, all that’s left is a long, lonely walk to a land he’s never seen to find family he’s never met. The last thing he needs is a spoiled waif like Guinevere slowing him down—even if the spark between them sizzles with promise. Despite his cold exterior, Oskar is brave and thoughtful and unlike anyone Guinevere has ever met. And while Guinevere may be sheltered, she brings out a softness in him that he has never dared to feel before. As the flames of their passion grow, they realize that soon they’ll need to choose between their expected destinations or their blossoming romance. Written by New York Times bestselling author Thea Guanzon at the behest of Critical Role’s Jester Lavorre, Tusk Love brings the most romantic story on Exandrian bookshelves to life.
