The reason for the season: Internship applications Apply now

Who are you looking for?

The person reading this, hopefully. We’re looking for smart, fun, humble people. In general, you need to be enrolled in college and have completed three semesters of coursework. But maybe you took your own path—tell us about it!

What’s the internship?

There’s a bunch. Go here for the full list: Engineering, Marketing, Data science, Business, Design, etc. If you don’t see something for you, keep checking. We’ll be adding more over the next couple months. And yeah they’re all paid—it’s serious work. 

Where is it?

Mostly New York, the city of dreams. But also LA, the city of Angelenos.

When?

At least eight weeks. June-ish to August-ish—whatever your school schedule allows.

Why?

Seems like a weird question to ask. 

How do I apply?

Go here 👈  Find an internship. Click apply. You’ll need a resume and cover letter so now would be a good time to meet your school’s career counselor.

Last year in my introductory course to health sciences, Determinants of Health (HSS 1101) I’ve learned that besides physical wellness, health encompasses 6 other dimensions: (1) social health, (2) emotional health, (3) spiritual health,(4) environmental health, (5) occupational health, and (6) intellectual health.

Taking this class and learning about the 7 dimensions of health made me realized that wellness is much more than merely physical health, exercise or nutrition. It is the full integration of states of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Each of these seven dimensions act and interact in a way that contributes to our own quality of life.

Wellness is achieving one’s full potential. It is self-directed and an ever-evolving process that follows a lifestyle of balance in health that ultimately decreases the likelihood of becoming ill physically, mentally, and spiritually. Comprised of seven dimensions and characteristics, wellness is achieved when a person’s life includes all seven elements in combination and in whole.

Why You Can’t Trust Anything You See on the News (or on any screen anywhere!)

While this video creates the impression that this technology is new, intelligence and Hollywood have been using technology far-advanced to this for many years; possibly decades.

This is what a small team of computer scientists came up with – using facial capture and facial reenactment software, students in college are able to, in real-time, create facial expressions and even insert audio, to make you believe that people like world leaders are doing and saying things that are not happening - so imagine what’s available for use by the CIA, NSA, MOSSAD (etc.), and all of their mainstream media propaganda arms.

See this article, When Seeing and Hearing Isn’t Believing, from 1999 (nearly 20 years ago!), which details technology which can, in near real time, clone speech patterns and develop an accurate facsimile. All by taking just a 10-minute digital recording of someone’s voice.

US Scientists Try First Gene Editing in the Body

Authored by Associated Press

Scientists for the first time have tried editing a gene inside the body in a bold attempt to permanently change a person’s DNA to try to cure a disease.

The experiment was done Monday in California on 44-year-old Brian Madeux. Through an IV, he received billions of copies of a corrective gene and a genetic tool to cut his DNA in a precise spot.
