Hutton starred alongside Tom Cruise in Taps (1981) and turned down the lead in Risky Business (1983), opting instead for a series of film roles that cemented his reputation as an often brooding "thinking man," including Iceman (1984), The Falcon and the Snowman (1985), Q&A (1990), The Dark Half (1993) and Beautiful Girls (1996). The actor entered new territory as a 1930s detective in the critically acclaimed A&E series "Nero Wolfe" (2001-02) before signing on to the NBC drama "Kidnapped" (2006-07).
Other notable films include The General's Daughter (1999), Kinsey (2004) and The Good Shepherd (2006).

The Bio Q Square Principle (The Cold Hands Stress Response)
When stress or tension build, your body responds by reducing blood flow to your extremities (hands and feet) and your digestive track. Your fingers get cooler as their blood supply is reduced. Bio Q Squares allow you to monitor changes in your finger temperature, so you can get an early warning when your stress level begins to rise. Usually, you realize too late that your stress level is rising. By the time you feel anxious, on edge, irritable, in pain, or whatever discomfort or decreased performance capacity stress produces in you, it's too late to do anything about it. Bio Q Squares give you a valuable early warning stress alert so you can get stress under control before unwanted symptoms appear.
Reading Bio Q Squares
Color changes indicate increased temperature and relaxation as they go from black to blues!
Black 85 (stressed) Brown 87
Yellow 89 Green 91 Blue Green 93
Blue 94 Violet 96 (calm)
These colors and temperatures are based on being in a "room temperature" environment of about 70-75 degrees. If you use them in a warmer or cooler temperature, they will not give meaningful readings. In a warmer environment, they will tend to be blue most of the time. In a cooler one, they will be brown or black.

Dunbar v. Google, Inc.
Filing 271
ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO ENFORCE re 254 Administrative Motion to File Under Seal Portions of Plaintiff's Motion to Enforce the Court's January 8, 2013 Discovery Order filed by Keith Dunbar. Signed by Judge Paul S. Grewal on April 2, 2013. (psglc2, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 4/2/2013)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 9 NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 United States District Court For the Northern District of California 8 SAN JOSE DIVISION 11 KEITH DUNBAR, 12 Plaintiff, v. 13 14 GOOGLE, INC., Defendant. 15 ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) Case No.: C 12-3305 LHK ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO ENFORCE THE COURT'S JANUARY 8, 2013 ORDER (Re: Docket No. 254) 16 Plaintiff Keith Dunbar ("Dunbar") moves to enforce the court's January 8, 2013 order 17 18 compelling Defendant Google, Inc. ("Google") to produce certain documents. Although not 19 explicit in his papers, at the hearing Dunbar also requested sanctions. Having reviewed the parties' 20 papers and considered their oral arguments, the court DENIES Dunbar's motion. 21 DISCUSSION 22 The parties were last before the court regarding this discovery dispute on January 8, 2013. 1 23 24 At that time, Dunbar sought to compel supplemental production of various documents responsive 25 to several of his requests, including the documents at issue here. 2 In that earlier motion and again 26 here, Dunbar claims that Google has not produced three types of documents: (1) documents 27 1 See Docket No. 242. 28 2 See Docket No. 215. 1 Case No.: C 12-3305 LHK (PSG) ORDER 1 relating to "Gmail ad targeting and data flow" referenced in one of the documents Google did 2 produce; (2) documents found at a link referenced in another produced document; and (3) "any 3 prior, final, or subsequent versions" of four of the documents. 3 Following the January 8 hearing, 4 the court issued an order in part requiring Google to produce those documents. 4 5 6 Google describes the documents at issue as two versions of explanations of its automated processing system in Gmail. 5 The first version is a diagram that provides an overview of the 7 8 9 system ("Diagram") and includes a link to document with a more detailed explanation ("Description"). 6 The second version is the document just described, the Description, which United States District Court For the Northern District of California 10 contains a link back to the Diagram. 7 According to Google, "Gmail ad targeting and data flow" is 11 the hyperlink in the Diagram and the link referenced in Dunbar's second request is the hyperlink 12 from the Description back to the Diagram. 8 Google claims that it produced both the Diagram and 13 14 the Description in 2011 and an updated version of the documents prior to the court's January 8 order. 9 15 Dunbar seeks to enforce the court's order because he believes that Google has not produced 16 17 the document titled "Gmail ad targeting and data flow" and that it has not produced all versions of 18 either the Diagram or the Description. 10 As to his contention that "Gmail ad targeting and data 19 flow" refers to documents other than the Description, Dunbar offers primarily his suspicion that 20 21 3 See Docket Nos. 215, 248. 22 4 See Docket No. 244. 23 5 See Docket No. 265. 24 6 See Docket No. 265 Ex. 2; see also Docket No. 244 Exs. C, D (filed under seal). 25 7 See Docket No. 265 Ex. 2. 26 8 See id. 27 9 See Docket No. 265; see also Docket No. 244 Exs. A, C (filed under seal). 28 10 See Docket No. 244. 2 Case No.: C 12-3305 LHK (PSG) ORDER 1 other documents exist. He points to Google's failure to clarify earlier that the title is just a 2 hyperlink to the Description and to the updated version of the Description to suggest that Google 3 has other documents with this title. But Dunbar offers no evidence beyond his suppositions that 4 there are other, absent documents, and Google states that it has no other documents with that link 5 attached or with that title. Absent some showing by Dunbar that there in fact other documents that 6 Google has not produced, Google is in compliance with the court's January 8 order and so granting 7 8 Dunbar's motion is inappropriate. Dunbar's second assertion – that Google has not produced prior versions or updated 9 United States District Court For the Northern District of California 10 versions of the Diagram or the Description – has more traction. Google produced updated versions 11 of both documents on January 7. 11 According to Google, any past versions of the documents were 12 not saved as separate files because they were continuously updated, and so the new versions were 13 saved over the old versions. 12 But Google apparently refuses to certify that no prior versions exist 14 because the documents were routinely sent to various employees and so someone may have a copy 15 16 of an earlier version, but it does not have anything other than the latest version of the document. 13 17 While at the hearing Google suggested to the court that it has identified custodians who may have 18 an earlier version it has not established that it successfully located any earlier versions. Google 19 also maintains that the attorney-client privilege protects any versions produced before it shared the 20 documents with parties other than its in-house counsel. 14 21 Google asserts that it has no obligation to retain these past versions of the Diagram and the 22 Description because they were altered in the normal course of business. Although pursuant to Fed. 23 24 25 11 See Docket No. 265. 26 12 See id. Ex. 2. 27 13 See Docket No. 244; Docket No. 265 Ex. 2. 28 14 See Docket No. 265. 3 Case No.: C 12-3305 LHK (PSG) ORDER 1 R. Civ. P. 37(e), the court "may not impose sanctions under these rules on a party for failing to 2 provide electronically stored information lost as a result of the routine, good-faith operation of an 3 electronic information system," the court is concerned that Google appears to have failed to take 4 steps to preserve documents that could have been discoverable in this case even after litigation 5 commenced. 15 Given that "[a]s soon as a potential claim is identified, a litigant is under a duty to 6 preserve evidence which it knows or reasonably should know is relevant to the action," 16 Google's 7 8 9 failure to retain older versions of the documents as they were being amended is problematic. Dunbar filed this action in 2010 and requested these documents, and Google produced the United States District Court For the Northern District of California 10 documents, in 2011. 17 Google thus had plenty of notice that these two documents were relevant to 11 Dunbar's case. 12 13 14 Nevertheless, because nothing in either Dunbar's papers or Google's opposition suggests that the failure to preserve prior versions of the documents was the result of a "culpable state of mind" that supports a finding of spoliation, 18 the court does not find that either a further order to 15 16 enforce or sanctions are warranted. Google nevertheless shall identify any potential custodians of 17 previous versions of the documents over which it does not maintain a claim of privilege and 18 produce such versions within fourteen days. 19 20 IT IS SO ORDERED.

Many thanks...Tried to watch an NBA game today and found it really unispiring after while and turned it off.....After a great weekend of hard working players playing their hearts out and some of the games were just inspiring... Sometimes wish that a few games were recorded like they do with the NBA games...None of the games have been posted to the usenet this year either....Appreciate having the opportunity watching these games... may even get around to watch the girls play.
Also like to add that leaving some of the comments sections etc during 1/2 time and after the game etc..are a real treat. Really enjoy the commentators etc on what they think etc.

Justin.tv (JTV) Workaround for Destination Country Quotas
- Justin streams will continue to be restricted by location (US/UK/CAN/AUS only).
- If you're trying to watch a Justin.tv link you may need to use a proxy.
We don't know what will happen this year with J.tv, but we will do our best to provide any working links possible.
- Download StreamTorrent Build 0078 and you should read ST Guide as well. Additional installation and program Information
- Download TVU.
- Take the time to learn about the Software and how to use it!
- You have to let a P2P stream buffer for at least 5 minutes to know anything AND 10 minutes to know anything for sure.
- Be sure your PC's date and time are correct.
- Sometimes you need to close and reopen your browser. ie: Firefox, IE.
- For most streams Internet Explorer or FireFox is recommended. (solves most problems)
- ST FireFox Users: You may need to associate Streamtorrent.exe with st://... - ST Guide, near the bottom. Same method for associating TVU if needed.
- ST Chrome Users: You may need to manually add channels to your ST channel list. -See the ST Guide for more info.
- ST Mac Users: Go HERE...
- ST Vista Users may need to read > Fix-tvants-vista-wmp11
- For ST streams: try opening ST... then delete the channel from your ST channel list... then close ST in the tray... then re-click the link.
- Get the most recent Flash update
- WMP Link (mms://) Mac Users: can use the Flip4Mac plug in. It can be downloaded here.
- Re-install > Windows Media Player or Windows 7 Fix.... Even if it says you have the latest version. This really helps!
- Sometimes the software needs to be uninstalled and reinstalled.
This stuff works >>>>>
- Windows Firewall should have exception for streamtorrent.exe; Open ports 15800-15900. ...or for some OS; IPv4 (TCP/UDP): 15800-15899 & IPv6 (TCP/UDP): 15900-15999
- If you have a router please read How to Configure a Router for P2P Streaming/Networking
- Install the connections patch, especially for Windows XP users at: Overview for XP2 or Overview for XP3 or Overview for W7
- Other software... TVU ; Sopcast; etc which can also be found in the Wiziwig installer packages and the appropriate forums.
- If you have a continuing issue, try clearing your cache and cookies. CCleaner works well for this.
- Or you may need to try and Repair/Reset Winsock settings, as a last resort. Read instructions carefully!
- Still can't find an answer? Search or start a thread in the StreamTorrent Forum and ask for help.
How to use VLC to watch a Stream
- Download VLC at OldVersion(dot)com ...or... New Version 1.1.11 - VideoLan.org and install it.
- You cannot use VLC to watch a stream unless it is already playing in StreamTorrent
- Open the main StreamTorrent application window. Start and Lock the channel you wish to watch. Then... once the stream has buffered & is playing, right click on the streaming player window, go to "Properties" and copy the .asf link you find.
- In VLC, go to "File" and open a network stream.
- In the HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/MMS box, paste in the asf link.
- Click on "OK" and sit back and watch in VLC. Close the StreamTorrent player window, but DO NOT close out of the application, for this closes the stream. (Side note: The asf link will change for each stream. Usually the last number is what changes.)
- Remember to Unlock the channel when you are done watching your stream.
- Record with VLC! Click Here!
Enjoy your day and the games!

Global Warming:
Administration Approach Cautious Pending Validation of Threat
NSIAD-90-63: Published: Jan 8, 1990. Publicly Released: Feb 5, 1990.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the adequacy of coordination and extent of federal agencies' participation in encouraging an international response to the problem of global climate change.
GAO found that: (1) the administration did not establish a coordinated national policy to guide federal efforts related to global climate change; (2) the President did not designate any individual or agency to assume overall leadership or management responsibility for global climate change activities; (3) in the absence of executive direction, agencies conducted climate change research activities without effective central and strategic planning and without full use of existing policy structures and resources; and (4) despite indications that it was ready to act and give high priority to the global warming threat, the administration has continued to emphasize the need for further research and has not agreed to specific targets and timetables for reducing and controlling greenhouse gas emissions.

From the "you can't be serious" department, a seven-year-old student from Baltimore has been been handed a 2-day suspension from school after a teacher saw him eating a Pop-Tart and said she thought he was chewing it into the shape of a gun.
The teacher also says she heard Josh Welch say "bang bang" to a classmate.
The boy denies saying "bang bang," but he does admit that he was trying to shape the toaster pastry.
"All I was trying to do was turn it into a mountain, but it didn't look like a mountain, really – and it turned out to be a gun kinda," Welch said.
The school sent out a letter to parents on Friday explaining the situation.
The letter said, "A student used food to make an inappropriate gesture."
Welch's father met with school administrators at Park Elementary School on Monday night. They now claim the student was suspended for his disruptive behavior in the classroom, not because of the offensive Pop-Tart.
His father says he's frustrated about what happened because it seems like they're now trying to downplay what happened now that it's gotten lots of media attention.

Definitions for Osmosisɒzˈmoʊ sɪs, ɒs-
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word Osmosis
Random House Webster's College Dictionary
os•mo•sisɒzˈmoʊ sɪs, ɒs-(n.)
the tendency of a fluid, usu. water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane. the diffusion of fluids through membranes or porous partitions.
Category: Biochemistry, Chemistry
a subtle or gradual absorption:
to learn by osmosis.
Origin of osmosis:
1865–70; Latinized form of now obs. osmose osmosis, extracted from endosmose endosmosis < F, =end-end - + Gk ōsm(ós) push, thrust + F -ose -osis
Princeton's WordNet
(biology, chemistry) diffusion of molecules through a semipermeable membrane from a place of higher concentration to a place of lower concentration until the concentration on both sides is equal
The net movement of solvent molecules from a region of high solvent potential to a region of lower solvent potential through a partially permeable membrane
Picking up knowledge accidentally, without actually seeking that particular knowledge.
I was reading about chickens, and I guess I learned about hawks through osmosis.
Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides. It may also be used to describe a physical process in which any solvent moves, without input of energy, across a semipermeable membrane separating two solutions of different concentrations. Although osmosis does not require input of energy, it does use kinetic energy and can be made to do work. The osmotic pressure is defined to be the pressure required to maintain an equilibrium, with no net movement of solvent. Osmotic pressure is a colligative property, meaning that the osmotic pressure depends on the molar concentration of the solute but not on its identity. Osmosis is essential in biological systems, as biological membranes are semipermeable. In general, these membranes are impermeable to large and polar molecules, such as ions, proteins, and polysaccharides, while being permeable to non-polar and/or hydrophobic molecules like lipids as well as to small molecules like oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, nitric oxide, etc. Permeability depends on solubility, charge, or chemistry, as well as solute size. Water molecules travel through the plasma membrane, tonoplast membrane or protoplast by diffusing across the phospholipid bilayer via aquaporins. Osmosis provides the primary means by which water is transported into and out of cells. The turgor pressure of a cell is largely maintained by osmosis, across the cell membrane, between the cell interior and its relatively hypotonic environment.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
Tendency of fluids (e.g., water) to move from the less concentrated to the more concentrated side of a semipermeable membrane.

I need new friends
- 1Jun 22, '11 by calmynurseHI all, I'm fairly new to this site and looked at my profile .
seems like no one has visited my page and would like to make/ meet new friends. I was hoping people can share their moment of aha! when they finally knew this is what they were meant to do.
- 0Jun 23, '11 by Rob72Well, if you haven't paid your friends this month, why would they stop by your page...? Just kidding!
As far as an aha! moment, that's a tough one to peg. I started 20 years ago in patient care, as a phleb. i'm an IDDM, so I thought, "I can stick myself, why not someone else...?" I found I enjoyed it. I enjoyed developing a high level of proficiency, and learning to do (for most people) an unpleasant task in a generally personable and occassionaly fun/entertaining way. I went on as an EMT, AUA, lab asst, research asst, all with pretty much the same mindset.
- 0Jun 26, '11 by Bortaz, RN, ADNI knew it the first time I walked in the NICU.
- 1Jun 26, '11 by Bortaz, RN, ADNQuote from Tony1Welcome, Tony. What part of Texas?Hi
I happen to read your post and caught my attention , because I am also looking for friends and advise.
I would be happy to have a friend with such experience.
I am TONY, hispanic male, student and I live in Texas.
hoping to hear back from you
- 0Oct 26, '11 by pretty_flyhey, i have the same predicament as yours...how do we make friends here by the way? do we have to add or invite them? I need some help here...please! Thanks
- 0Nov 17, '11 by traumatangoI've been an EMT for 16+ years, just about time I further my education, Now if I can just get the damn pre reqs done.. Haaa Nice to meet y'all.

Cooling of Electrical Machines
On-demand Web Seminar
Electrical machines like transformers, motors and generators have a high efficiency; however the electrical losses reach such high levels that the produced losses must be removed through an appropriate method. The life expectancy of the winding isolation strongly depends on temperature, an increase of the temperature level by 5 to 8 K results in a halving of the life expectancy. As the winding resistance is temperature dependant, an improvement of the cooling would bring about a decrease on the copper losses. Due to the high material costs, it is desirable to use this to its limit: through a more efficient cooling process the current density can be increased and as a result the same machine size can reach a higher power.
The flow and thermal processes in a large motor or generator are highly complicated and they cannot be well described with the older methods. Measurements inside a fast rotating rotor are very complicated due to the high circumferential speed. The 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics is the correct alternative for the analysis, concept and for the detailed design of electrical machines as it allows to precisely predict the flow structure around the stator coil ends, the distribution of the cooling medium, the pressure losses, the heat transfer coefficients and temperature distribution. Without an extreme simplification of the geometry, a coupled thermal and flow calculation for the complex geometry of a stator in the coiler head is only possible with software based on Cartesian mesh like FloEFD.
What You Will Learn
- Why large electrical machines need cooling
- How to conduct thermal analysis starting from a CAD model
- How to input the electrical losses in a FloEFD model
- Why FloEFD is well adapted for the thermal design of electrical machines
About the Presenter
Karim Segond
Karim Segond studied Mechanical Engineering in Toulouse and then later in Berlin, where he worked at Siemens Large Drives where his main tasks were 3D thermal and flow calculations for a synchronous motor with turbo rotor. After obtaining his Masters, he worked in Alstom Power in Baden as an aerodynamics engineer on the development of new low pressure steam turbines. He also worked for ABB Minerals in Switzerland on a short term contract looking at 3D Thermal and Flow Calculations for electrical motors. He now works as a consultant for cooling calculations of electrical equipment. Karim can work with the market leading CFD software. However he prefers to work with software based on cartesian mesh, like FloEFD, as it allows for easy set-up and fast heat-transfer cases, resulting in lower costs. By using these tools, Karim offers a distinct competitive advantage over many of his customers who are still using older tools.
Besides electrical machines, Karim also investigates thermal management of power electronics components used to drive large engines. Here CFD can be used to optimized the design and ensure the best possible cooling for the components. He has also turned his attention to the overall cooling of a system; such cooling systems that are too big and too complex to simulate with 3D CFD software. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze them using a 1D thermal and fluid flow circuit that is modeled in a 1D CFD tool such as Flowmaster. This combined solution then enables Karim to provide the qualities of both tools and provide the ultimate cooling solution to his customers.

Virgin Galactic spaceshipTwo completes test flight
A spaceship which will soon take tourists into space has completed its maiden test flight over the California Mojave Desert. Virgin Galactic's SpaceshipTwo flew for three hours and reached an altitude of 45,000 feet - all while attached to the wing of its mothership.
For the "captive carry" flight, the rocket plane remained firmly attached to the WhiteKnightTwo carrier airplane - which will eventually take it to 50,000 ft where it will separate and blast off.
From there it will climb to 60 miles above the Earth's surface, enabling suborbital space tourists to experience weightlessness… the same sensation experienced by their wallets after paying £120,000 for the flight.

Toni Morrison is my absolute favorite writer of all time, with her novel Sula being my favorite novel by her. I'm also in love with Song of Solomon, and Paradise. I just finished her novel, Jazz, last week, and I plan on picking up Tar Baby sometime this summer. 2015 will be the year of the re-read, when I pick up the Bluest Eye and Beloved. Yes, Morrison is serious enough for me to schedule reading her novels a year in advance.
She was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1987 for Beloved, and became the first African American woman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1993.
I've enjoyed Morrison's writing, but hearing her speak is also a definite treat. She is one of the smartest public intellectuals I have ever had the pleasure of listening to, thanks to Youtube. In honor of her birthday, check out this interview with Charlie Rose, which starts off a little testy when she's asked if she'll ever veer away from the subject of race in her writing. I love how she segue's into how studying African writers helped her focus on writing solely for the pleasure and benefit of Black readers.

[Watch] TPP Treaty is Corporate Global Government, Obama's New World Order
One of the things that the subversive agent Hussein Obama was going to work on and his substitute is carrying on in his stead is the TPP, the Trans-Pacific Partnership. That sounds nice, doesn't it? All of these nations' leaders that share the Pacific ocean, getting around together, holding hands on the beach and making peaceful, humanity-conscious agreements.
Well, not so fast, there luau boy; step back from that treaty. One little bit of text that was smuggled out is very revealing about the contents of this corporate government love-fest. It appears to be a wealth of giveaways to the global corporate structure, in effect setting up a global world government. The agreements contained in this sellout legislation are huge, providing jurisdiction of corporations, including foreign corporations over America and American interests, based upon a parallel legal system and treaty.
This is in effect the New World Order global government, including a separate corporate legal system.
But, you might ask, why haven't I heard about this? Well, the simple answer is, you aren't supposed to know. The upper 1% knows that if they are exposed, they will likely be stopped. The new preferred method of "approve it before you read it" will be implemented once again once this secret sellout of our sovereignty deal is completed.
Watch the video below and prepare to be amazed at what this crooked American leadership, in conjunction with criminal governments worldwide is in the process of doing under our noses and behind our backs.
The video is from this time last year. The process is near completion now. We need to act to alert our fellow citizens and stop this thing before it becomes law. Once it is law, it becomes tremendously difficult to free ourselves from the tentacles of this corporate domination.
None of the people of any of the nations involved benefit from this and none but the corrupt leaderships are pushing it.
We need to push back hard and push back now.

Living With Leukemia
Resource Guide
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history and perform a physical exam. He or she will check for swelling of the liver, spleen, or lymph nodes in the armpits, groin, and neck.
Tests may include:
Blood Tests—to check for leukemia cells in the blood. Another blood test may be done to assess for the presence of specific genes associated with leukemia
Bone Marrow Aspiration—removal of a sample of liquid bone marrow to test for cancer cells
Bone Marrow Biopsy
—removal of liquid bone marrow and a small piece of bone to test for cancer cells
If the biopsy shows leukemia cells, additional tests may be ordered to determine whether the disease has spread and what systems are affected. Staging of leukemia depends on the type of leukemia. Tests may include:
Lumbar Puncture (Spinal Tap)
—removal of a small amount of fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord to test for cancer cells
Chest X-rays—films of the chest that may detect signs of cancer in the chest
Acute leukemias are aggressive from the very beginning, but chronic leukemias have a longer and more indolent course. Over time, they may develop more aggressive characteristics as the cells making up the leukemia become more immature. As a consequence, chronic leukemias are classified not only by type but also the phase in which the disease is at the time.
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia is grouped by three general phases:
In the US, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) uses a Rai classification to describe the phases of the illness:
Acute leukemia is not staged because it involves bone marrow throughout the body and often has spread to other organs. Doctors classify it by type and subtype in an attempt to determine the prognosis and a recommended level of treatment.

« A 7-6th Century BCE Scarab With An "Ugaritic" Shin?
Quotation Of A Week Ago »
September 7, 2010
Let's Have A Read The Qur'an Day
In reaction to the crazy and dangerous suggestion that people here in America burn the Qur'an on September 11 of this year, I think I will reread the Qur'an on that day. It's been while. I suggest that as many as are willing take some of their September 11th to read it. Reading the whole of the Qur'an in translation in a day certainly can't be too hard. It's not all that long.
I will read it in memory of Salman Hamdani the New York City police cadet who died under the debris of the North Tower with his EMT medical bag beside him and the other Muslim victims who died on that September day.
If I remember correctly, like the many holy books (including the Hebrew Bible and the Christian New Testament), parts of the Qur'an are relatively inspiring, other parts are horrifying, some parts are incomprehensible, and a lot of it is just plan dull. And I don't intend any of this to imply that one need believe the claims of any of it or any of those other supposedly holy books. I don't. It's just that in the light of the despicable acts of a very small minority of Muslims who claim that the god of the Qur'an requires them to do unspeakable violence against anyone they consider infidel, including other Muslims, and the fear the Qur'an inspires in some Christians, I think September 11, 2010, would very be a good day to give it a read.
Update: September 12, 2010
Well, I'd quite get it all read. An unanticipated but welcome visitor and a planned but more difficult than expected router replacement cut deeply into my time. I did get about two-thirds through it. I'll probably finish it over the coming week. But for now, I need to get back to my Ugarit project and something abnormally interesting or at least abnormal I've been thinking about with regard to the Hebrew Bible.

Over the past 6 weeks or so I can honestly admit that I have been taking things rather easy. I am now over the experience of organisational change and redundancy and from my encounters with colleagues employed in the new worlds of NHS England and the local Commissioning Support Unit, I am well shot of it all. My pension has now paid up (suggestions by NHS Pensions that it would all take 3 months were unfounded) and I am about to become an investor in 'funds'. Soon, I will swop the Nursing Times for the Financial Times, well, maybe not.
I have begun to consider what work I would rather do in the future and on balance, while I am unlikely to find my way back to a bedside any day soon (my back has been playing up something chronic), I would like to work closer to the patient and hopefully with some nurses. A week ago I helped out at a training session for community staff, something that I have contributed to a number of times. It didn't take longer than coffee time to dust off my brain, and I know that I could and would like to do more of that. I also stepped up and sorted out a presentation for an ex boss last week, banking a few hours of self employed work (there is more to come). Plus there is a job in the pipeline which I intend to apply for, but which I am waiting for the advert to appear.
Yesterday though, I went of my own free will, unpaid to a nurses day celebration and I am glad I did. It filled me with an enthusiasm for nursing and the NHS that I have not felt for a while. So much has been written and said about the state of the health service, about whether nurses have forgotten the purpose of providing care, forgotten perhaps how to care.
It is easy to buy into the idea that nurses who are out there now are in some way inferior to the way they once were. The concept that they have in some way lost their vocation and that they lack the compassion to deliver the best that they can. It is easy to believe that nursing leaders are lacking in some way, that they are not committed to ensuring that they set the vision, to inspire and support their workforce.
The conference took place at a local university, run jointly between acute, community and mental health Trusts. Present were all of the nurse leaders from those Trusts as well as in excess of 100 nurses from across the area. The purpose was to celebrate nursing locally and nationally, to inspire and to inform. It did just that. The keynote speakers, one from the chief nurse and the other from someone who has achieved so much despite and because of his disability were great to hear. But equally the quality of presentations from local nurses was of equal quality. It made me proud that I am still a nurse and it inspired me to get back to work soon. I want to work with these people, to be able to support their ability to overcome the negativity and continue the great work they do. To recognise the complexities of modern healthcare and to show people that compassion still exists in nursing. To celebrate nursing.
Near the end of the day, we were shown this youtube clip. I think it tells us what we need to know about the future.

Study Looks at Discrimination African-American Adolescents Face in Schools
The study "African American Adolescents' Academic Persistence: A Strengths-Based Approach," was published online May 24 in the Journal of Youth and Adolescence.
"This study is unique in that it is a socioeconomically diverse sample of African-American adolescents — from poverty and low-income environments all the way to those with a high socioeconomic status," said Sheretta T. Butler-Barnes, PhD, assistant professor at the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis and lead author.
"School-based racial discrimination experiences are still occurring across the board for these adolescents, and it's having a negative impact on academic persistence," she said.
Butler-Barnes said that's not so much surprising as it is distressing. "It's 2013 and it's still an issue," she said.
The study began when Butler-Barnes was a National Science Foundation post-doctoral fellow at the University of Michigan's Center for the Study of Black Youth in Context. While not letting schools and institutions off the hook, the research also focuses on ways that an individual's strengths — racial pride, self-efficacy and self-acceptance — can buffer the negative experiences.
"The study keys in to teachers and parents the need to recognize that these things are still happening," Butler-Barnes said, noting that schools could hold workshops speaking about race and ethnic differences to raise awareness of what people of color tend to experience in school settings.
Butler-Barnes led the first phase of this research, which is ongoing at the University of Michigan. To view the study, visit here.
Co-authors are Tabbye M. Chavous, PhD, professor and associate dean for academic programs and initiatives at the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies at the University of Michigan; Noelle Hurd, PhD, assistant professor at the University of Virginia; and Fatima Varner, PhD, assistant professor at Fordham University.
Butler-Barnes joined the faculty of the Brown School in July. Her research explores positive youth development, specifically African-American adolescents and achievement outcomes, and seeks to identify strengths regardless of socioeconomic status. •
