"Through coaching and meditation, Galyon has been able to be a source of calm for others and hopes to create a journal, that goes along with his upcoming book: Let It Settle: Daily Habits to Move You From Chaos to Calm, that creates a similar space for each reader. A calm space to call upon when facing a pivotal moment in life. A space that provides the reader with the insight that they are not alone in their experience and that their emotions are valid. Then to provide them with the tools, in the form of a guided meditation, to navigate through the experience and get them to a centered space from which healing is possible. The journal will follow along with the book and will also be broken into a series of pivotal moments that commonly induce stress, worry, overwhelm, anxiety or fear. Each section will highlight a specific pivotal moment (the loss of a loved one, moving on from a relationship, etc) and take them through a meditation for that specific life experience. The goal would be for this to be a source of calm for people to call upon throughout their life as those moments arise or to prepare them for when they inevitably will. Rather than a "how to," book and journal, both will be centered around experiential learning where readers begin to embody the concepts in a safe and guided space that gives them an ability to trust the method before putting it into daily practice. This is not where the healing resides, but rather a safe space to go to prepare yourself for the healing when the time is right, and you are ready. A moment to let everything settle so you can see clearly and determine your next best step."--

"The signal processor is that part of the system which separates targets from clutter on the basis of Doppler content and amplitude characteristics. Information theory plays critical and unique roles in facilitating and enabling many radar signal processing problems. In addition, in the last decade, we have witnessed a significant increase in the use of information theory for radar signal processing, partially due to increased civilian applications of radar systems, such as automotive radar and radars for gesture recognition, that made the results to be more easily disseminated than the military counterparts which have dominated radar system development in the previous several decades."--
