The novel of the Ghanaian writer Yaa Gyasi tells the story of Gifty, a fifth-year candidate in neuroscience at Stanford School of Medicine. Her brother, Nana, was a gifted high school athlete who died of a heroin overdose and her suicidal mother is living in her bed. Gifty is determined to discover the scientific basis for the suffering she sees all around her. But as she turns to science to unravel the mystery, her past resurfaces, particularly the evangelical church in which she was raised. The novel questions religion and science in the face of familial loss and addiction. It portrays also the struggle of a family of Ghanaian immigrants. YAA GYASI was born in Ghana and raised in Huntsville, Alabama. At the age of 26, she won several prizes for her debut novel and best seller « Homegoing ». Among these prizes: the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Award for Best First Book and the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Novel.

Let’s meet on the last day of February for a gentle, warm, and slightly unpredictable afternoon together. This meetup is for people who enjoy meaningful conversations, emotional awareness, and authentic exchanges, the kind that leave you feeling both lighter and more alive. 🌟 What to expect A small circle of open-minded humans, with tea, coffee, or food in hand, sharing self-reflection, philosophy, psychology or simply ideas and inspirations that arise naturally in the moment. There is no fixed topic. The conversation flows on its own.🪄 To give you a sense, here are some topics that emerged last time: - If you have lived in different places and cultures for many years, can you still define your origin as where you were born? - How to find peace and calm (inspired by Indian philosophy). - If someone behaves differently from most people in a system, are they wrong? (I’ve shared my perspective on this topic [[click here](https://www.instagram.com/p/DTqk5t6Avy_/?igsh=MXBhemd5ZTE1dnFzcQ==) ], feel free to add your own in comments 💬. ) - Where would you like to spend your retirement, and why? - How to position yourself as an expat in a country like Luxembourg. - Cultural differences around complaining: in some cultures it’s negative, in others it’s seen as necessary for change. - Human energy, presence, and “frequency” — and how we influence it. - … and more. 📌 Practical details 📍 Venue: Bouneweger Stuff 📅 Date: Saturday, February 28, 2026 🕒 Time: 15:00 – 17:00 👥 Group size: 12 people ☕ Food & drinks: Everyone orders and pays individually (If you can’t attend, please cancel so someone else can take the spot.) If you enjoy authentic connection, gentle humour, openness to different perspectives, and conversations that have a life of their own - you are very welcome to join. ✨

## (Lesson 2) ## What to expect Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required. ### Why we meet (two-session structure) This meetup is structured as **two lessons**: **Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)** * What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not) * Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline * What “24/7 execution” means in practice * Q&A and open discussion **Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)** * A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need * Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts * A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions (You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.) ### What to bring To make the second lesson smooth, please bring: * **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup) * **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration) If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both. ### Who this is for * People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline * Beginners who want a structured approach * Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress ### Agenda * Welcome + introductions * Lesson focus of the day (Why / How) * Guided walkthrough (where applicable) * Q&A + next steps ### How to find the group * Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group. * I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.

**⚡ AI & Coffee – In-Person Meetup in Luxembourg** We’re hosting the next event on Sunday 8th March from 15h00-17h00 in Updown Bar (Downstairs) Based on the great feedback last time, feel free to bring your laptops if you’d like to show your work. People were very open to sharing approaches and projects, which sparked some truly deep conversations. Looking forward to meeting you all again, and also welcoming those who couldn’t make it last time. AI is moving so fast that it’s hard to keep up alone. The best way to make sense of it is by meeting others, exchanging ideas, and hearing fresh perspectives. That’s what this meetup is about. ☕ We’ll gather in a local café for open conversations about: * AI news and trends (what’s real, what’s hype) * Sharing projects, ideas, and feedback * Supporting each other and creating new stories * Building connections with like-minded people 👥 **Who’s welcome?** Developers, entrepreneurs, investors, mentors, students, researchers, creatives — and anyone simply curious about AI. 💡 **What to expect** * Casual atmosphere, no commitment, no pressure * The host will share small icebreakers and sparks of AI news * The rest is up to you: meet, talk, connect, and exchange 🎉 The only cost is your own coffee or drink. Bring your curiosity and an open mind — and let’s build one of the most exciting AI communities in the area.

Join us for a relaxed café-style gathering where good conversation, meaningful connections, and positive energy take center stage. Expect cosy vibes, thoughtful prompts, laughter, and a few “aha” moments as we share stories, listen to different perspectives, and reflect on what lifts us up in everyday life. **Optional :** * How does the brain process happiness? Which parts of the brain are activated? * a game related to the topic

On Sunday 1 March, I have arranged a private guided tour for our group of the Dräi Eechelen Museum, which is located inside the renovated Fort Thüngen and showcases Luxembourgish history from the Middle Ages to the early 1900s. The tour will start at 13:00 sharp, so please aim to be at the museum at least a few minutes early! The 15€ fee includes your museum entry and contribution to the tour guide. To make things smoother on-site, I would appreciate advance payment so we can get straight to learning things the day of :) Please message me to arrange this. See you there!

Hello, Same procedure as last year, we'll do my home trail. It will be familiar to you. Or not? We start Rotondes, walk down to Grund, pass by the Romanian embassy to enter the Bonnevoie circular walk. So far so familiar. After following the path for a while, we will see those steep stairs across the street. But no worries. Seeing is not climbing up. We deviate here from the circular walk, even skipping our picnic place from last year. Instead we are going to head towards Kaltreis Parc for the break. There are tables and benches used for kid's birthdays etc. Less likely to crash someone's date. I still feel sorry for the guy from last year. After lunch, back to the forest. We'll pass a senior residence and go to a tram stop. As reminder, the trail includes plenty of forest paths. It's not a city walk. Start: Rotondes near the station Destination: Tram stop "Lycée Bonnevoie" Those interested can easily walk back from the tram stop to the starting point. Just let me know and I'll show the way. Public transport: Various options of bus, train and tram Parking: near station or Cactus Bonnevoie Hope to see many of you on Sunday! Jörg Disclaimer: The hike is at your own risk. Know your limits. Come prepared (water, food, shoes...). Don't hesitate to ask any questions.

**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
