It is difficult to pinpoint whether it is a software problem or a hardware problem.
I can describe my configuration, but after searching with Google, the fact is that many cases are similar for other configurations as well.The common factor seems to be Windows.
My configuration : Asus T100 Transformer (10' tablet with keyboard) . This device runs Windows 8.1 but has only one USB 3.0 port. So a 4-port powered hub is required.
The hub is attached to the Asus T100 using it's original regular usb3.0 cable.
Two devices are connected :
1. a wireless transmitter for Logitech mouse M235 (not related to this problem)
2. a portable external disk (usb3.0 original cable).Seagate Backup Plus Slim (not powered).
This unit disconnects from system apparently only when this 'laptop' is left untouched for a longer time. This happens at each time.
It looks as if there is a time-out for the connection after a 'not-busy-period'. But there is no acoustical warning (like for a manual removal of an usb device)Windows Explorer does not see the disk anymore.
I can suspect anything : USB controllers management on any or all 3 units, cables , Windows, power settings for Windows.
So far, the disk has not diconnected as long as the T100 has been 'active' (user present) but that might be just coïncidence.
Thank you for suggestions.
message edited by Blackbird
I don't use 8.1. That said, Windows 8.12 should be similar to 7. Try changing the following setting. In Windows 7> Control Panel> Power Options> Change Plan Settings> Change Advanced Power settings> USB Settings> USB Selective Suspend Settings> Set to Disable.
If that does not do it, do an experiment, remove the mouse and hub and try the hard drive plugged directly into the USB port to see if it is the hub at issue, but it sounds like OtheHill probably has the right of it there.
You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
Thank you Othehill
I could not find yet in Win 8.1 a similar setting at this location ; maybe it is somewhere else in the control panel's menu's.
message edited by Blackbird
This is a bit embarassing. Since some time now, the disk hasn't disconnected itself in the same conditions (when T100 is left inactive for some time). So I'm unsure if the problem is still alive or not.
The only thing I'm sure : similar issues (disconnecting usb devices) have been reported and users facing the issue seem to incriminate Windows 8/8.1.
I cannot assign a "Best answer" yet. The suggestion of Fingers (#2) is a good idea, when and if the disk disconnects itself again in the same circumstances.
However yesterday it kept disconnecting for no apparent reason, in completely new different manner : continuously at short intervals of a few minutes , maybe maximum 10 times,
Removing the usb3.cable and reconnecting it, resulted each time in reconnecting the disk with success. Every file was accessed without problem.
While during that same short period of tme 15-20 minutes, the keyboard input was deadslow !
After that period , no problem any more.Even after leaving the AsusT00 untouched for the whole evening the disk remained connected, exactly as the days before, and as opposed to the topic start question .
At this moment, while typing now everything seems again to work norrmally.
I can't figure out what is going on.
I'm suspicious about the hardware of this AsusT100 , but what ?
Thank you

Rio bridge collapses after lorry crash, killing four
At least four people have died when a lorry smashed into a pedestrian bridge in Rio de Janeiro, causing it to collapse onto vehicles below.
The accident happened on a busy highway in northern Rio known as the Yellow Line road.
Another four people were injured, according to Lamsa, the company that administers the toll road.
Witnesses said there were only two people on the bridge when it collapsed just after 9:00 local time (11:00 GMT).
Normally the yellow metal bridge would be crowded at that time, with many children using it to get to school. But it was in less heavy use because of Brazil's summer holidays.
Rio de Janeiro's Mayor Eduardo Paes told reporters at the scene that the lorry's trailer was clearly above the 4.5 metres (14 feet) permitted for use on the road, which cuts through northern and western Rio.
Mr Paes said the authorities were trying to confirm if the lorry's bed was raised when it hit the walkway. Regardless, "an infraction was being committed because trucks aren't allowed on the Yellow Line at that time of day," he added.
Valeria da Paixao, the director of a day care centre near the site of the accident, told Globo TV that she "heard a loud noise, like an explosion".
"The walkway is used by many mothers who bring their children to our school," she said. "Thank God it's vacation time and we're closed. If it happened when the school was open we would have had a major tragedy."

The Program and Its Scope
The University of Arizona's doctoral field in Early Europe offers a rich array of emphases and approaches to the history of Europe, reaching from the ancient Mediterranean through the High and Late Middle Ages, to the Renaissance, the Reformation and the seventeenth century, in France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain. The graduate program in Early Europe encourages building a strong foundation in intellectual, political and religious history, offering as well a variety of courses in the history of gender, women and the family. Our interests also stretch beyond the European landmass, to foster interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to the study of gender, discourse, belief, and the structures of power in collaboration with other caucuses and other programs across the campus, including Classics, Women's Studies, Latin American Studies, and Religious Studies. The Division for Late Medieval and Reformation Studies is a particular institutional strength, offering scholarly resources and opportunities for graduate students beyond the History Department.
Alison Futrell and Steve Johnstone focus on the symbols, rituals and language of power in the Graeco-Roman world, with strong research interest in how human social and political dynamics have been shaped and enacted through performance in different venues, from the Colosseum to the courtroom.
Paul Milliman's research focuses on cultural contacts and exchange between the peoples of east-central Europe during the middle ages. He also has an interest in the history of games and sport in this period. His offered courses include a survey of medieval Europe, a history of the Crusades, a history of games and play in medieval and early modern Europe, and graduate courses on medieval cultural exchange.
Susan Karant-Nunn is Regents' Professor and Director of the Division for Late Medieval and Reformation Studies. She leads the seminars that form the backbone of the Division's graduate program, conversing on varying topics in early modern European history. Her work concentrates on the religious and social culture of early modern Germany, including matters of gender, and her courses feature such themes as ritual, the European family, sexuality, and deviance.
Ute Lotz-Heumann is interested in the history of Europe from the fifteenth to the early nineteenth centuries. She teaches an array of specialized courses in early modern European history with a particular emphasis on Ireland, Britain and Germany. Among others, she teaches courses on early modern and modern Irish history, the confessional churches in early modern Europe, British history in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the diary of Samuel Pepys, a seventeenth-century Englishman, the cultural history of early modern Germany, the political and social makeup of the Holy Roman Empire, as well as historiographical and methodological courses and aspects of the enlightenment in central Europe.

Get ready for an upcoming DemoFriday™ that will help you learn how to build network functions virtualization infrastructure (NFVI) and eliminate network bottlenecks when transitioning to NFV. 6WIND and Red Hat will team up next month to present a demo of high-performance NFV for a routing virtual network function (VNF) using 6WINDGate high-performance packet-processing software and the Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform.
The demo will highlight the 6WINDGate Open vSwitch (OVS) Acceleration module, a key feature for appliances based on generic platforms. The module makes it possible for customers to build high-performance networking applications using standard Linux OSs, hypervisors, and management without modifying existing architecture.
Join Yann Rapaport, product manager with 6WIND, and Red Hat's Glenn Rudolph, global partner and alliances ISV director, as they cover:
- How 6WINDGate can accelerate virtual switch functionality to deliver more than 10x performance transparently without having to recompile the standard OVS
- How to accelerate virtual switch functionality without changing anything in Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform, the KVM/QEMU hypervisor, or the OpenFlow controller
- How the 6WINDGate OVS Acceleration module can help users extend their existing Red Hat solutions based on OVS, KVM/QEMU hypervisors, or OpenStack to build high-performance applications on virtual equipment.
Join us for the DemoFriday™ with 6WIND and Red Hat when we webcast it live on Friday, May 23, at 10:00 a.m. PDT. Registration is limited to SDxCentral members. To become a member today, join here — membership is free! (Note: this event has passed. You can view the archive here.)

The Isle of Man Aircraft Registry must be notified of changes to aircraft details which will affect the information recorded on the aircraft register and on aircraft certificates.

Changes to the following should be notified to IOMAR:

- Combinations of two or more of the above.
To ensure we have the most up to date contacts for your aircraft, please notify us as soon as possible of the following:
Change of Nominated Airworthiness Technical Representative (NATR)

Advance notice of a change to aircraft details is required to allow sufficient time for IOMAR to review documents and reissue aircraft certificates affected to prevent potential delays to aircraft operations.
All outstanding invoices must be paid in full prior to completion of the change.

Not every change should take this long to finalise and we will always do our best to accommodate the time frames required by our customers if it is within our ability to do so.
This will be dependent on the quality and completeness of the documents submitted.
Supply of draft copies of documents (e.g. Bills of Sale, Deeds of Release, Mortgages) to the Registry ahead of time is encouraged to reduce review time and therefore possible delays to service on the day of a transaction.
The Current Registered Owner (or their authorised representative) must submit a completed Form 92, Notification of Change of Aircraft Details to [email protected] authorising the Registry to begin the change process.
This may be in draft format initially. Upon receipt of Form 92, a member of our Registry Services Team will be allocated as your primary point of contact to assist you through the process.
This form must be signed by either:
- A director of the current registered owner OR
- A nominated representative of the current registered owner who holds a valid Power of Attorney authorising them to sign application forms on behalf of the registered owner in respect of the change.
Supporting Forms & Documents
Page 2 of Form 92 lists the supporting documents to be supplied to the Aircraft Registry in advance of the change taking place.
Supply of draft copies of documents (e.g. Bills of Sale, Deeds of Release, Mortgages) to the Registry ahead of time is strongly encouraged to the possibility of delays to service on the day of a transaction.
The Registry issues all certificates and documents in digital format only.
For details of certificates re-issued by other agencies, see Registry Publication 52.

GAME ON: The Rest of My 'Adopted' List Makers
It's my pleasure to introduce the other three all-stars who have agreed to help me with my "Live the List" project.
Reminder: I recently decided to give back in a unique way by "adopting" six people and helping them mark something off their life lists.
Before I introduce the final three people, who have graciously embraced this crazy endeavor, I wanted to reiterate my goals for this project:
• Help pull people out of their ruts (before they end up in a ditch);
• Inspire others to live boldly;
• Reinforce the importance of taking the emphasis off yourself and helping others,
• And motivate people to pay it forward.
Actually, the first bullet point is not applicable to the group of individuals that I'm about to introduce. They are nowhere near a rut and/or ditch – all three of these "adoptees" are at exciting places in their lives.
I guess you could say that I want to help them build on the momentum in their lives. (I may need to tweak my goals from my original post.)
Without further ado….
Courtney Foster
Courtney and I met when we worked together at J.O. Design. She's unaware of it, but I have appointed myself president of her Fan Club. I think she's an over-the-top talented designer who has a huge heart and a caring soul. (The fact she's a new runner is wonderfully great, too.)
Confession: I feel a little guilty about Courtney's involvement in this project. I practically dared her to make a list, and then I double-dog dared her to let me help her mark something off.
She's on board, though, and understands the potential magnitude of this project.
"I want to take notice of how important the list is, no matter how small the task I want to accomplish," Courtney said. "It's about creating happiness, not pursuing it."
Her momentum: Courtney recently got married, started a new job at a fantastic architecture firm in Fort Worth AND she is in the process of buying her first house.
"I'm in the midst of chaos," she explained with a wink. "There is a lot going on — definitely a growing period."
I'm helping Courtney mark something off her simple pleasures list: Go on vacation with her friends. (NOTE: I'm looking for a little creative license on "vacation.")
I've enlisted one of Courtney's friends to help set-up a girl's weekend at my mom's Retreat Center outside Glen Rose. It's not Cancun or Jackson Hole, but they'll be able to get away for a couple days and "clear the mechanism" in the country.
"It's so wonderful to actually have a game plan for accomplishing something on the list," Courtney said.
Arlene Cloud
Arlene is my next door neighbor and a friend. Along with her husband Kenny, they make everyone else's neighbors look ridiculously silly and inept.
Nothing against your neighbors, BUT they've done a lot of remarkable things for us, like:
• Kenny climbed in our attic once to fetch a nesting varmint, while I sat on top of my car in the driveway squealing like a little girl;
• Arlene and Kenny cleaned our house while Crash was in NICU for a couple days after his birth;
• We have a standing invitation to invade their beer refrigerator in their back yard.
What do YOUR neighbors do for you? Pick up your newspapers when you're on vacation?
Needless to say, I was THRILLED when Arlene shared her Bucket List with me and agreed to be part of this project.
Her momentum: "There is a fork coming up in my road and when I take the path that I've never taken before, I want there to be a plan. I tend to over embrace life, and I think I've finally accepted that about myself. Instead of apologizing for jumping into everything with both feet, I want to use it to my advantage."
I've agreed to help Arlene cross No. 17 off her Bucket List: "Volunteer; different things, different times, but try to always be giving back."
Reminder about the "Live the List" project: I want use my skill sets and/or "expertise" to help accomplish these tasks.
No. 17 on Arlene's list is definitely in my wheelhouse.
I'm going to work with Arlene to set up a volunteer schedule – however much time and energy she wants to dedicate. More importantly, I want to help her find just the right organization and/or cause that tugs at her heart strings.
"My kids say I can't have volunteer on a Bucket List because I already do it," Arlene said, "but I say it's ok if I'm choosing to make exploring different avenues of volunteering the key."
Michael Bloomberg
I met Mike while serving on a volunteer board for Big Brothers Big Sisters. We became fast friends – mainly because we share an entrepreneurial spirit and we love helping others.
Mike is the celebrity of my "adoptees" – positioning himself as the "world's premier Marriage Proposal Consultant." This distinction has landed him on TV and in some of the most prestigious publications in the World, like the New York Times.
He explained his unique profession: "I help clients create and implement their one-of-a-kind marriage proposals. What I actually am doing is helping them create a memory. A memory the couple will share for the rest of their lives."
That's exactly what I want to help Mike do with this project – create a memory that will last forever. I've agreed to help him with a business-related task on his Bucket List: Plan an actor or professional athlete's marriage proposal.
How cool is that task?
I told Mike that I'm going to use my contacts and resources to make this happen. It might take a little longer than the five other "Live the List" tasks that I'm embracing, but it's going to be a game-changing story when it's all said and done with.
"My goal when starting this company was to plan these proposals all over the globe with clients all over the world. I have been fortunate to do so," Mike said. "However, the one thing that has not happened yet is working with a professional athlete or an actor. This would not necessarily make me better at my job, but, it would help me complete a goal I've had for myself and for my business since its inception."
The momentum in Mike's life is impressive: His business is flourishing and he's still making time to get his master's degree in counseling.
"At this point in my life, I am exactly where I am supposed to be," he said. "But I am also excited about the future and my ability to make a difference in this world."
Mike said discovering his purpose has become an "exciting part of the journey" – but he also said he needs a little help working through "project paralysis."
"I tend to come up with great ideas, but, sometimes get stuck in the over-analysis," Mike said. "I've chosen to let Drew help me because he will be the impetus to making a dream come true."

The About Page: Why Your Story Matters
When someone stumbles across your blog one of the first things they're going to do is go to your about page. As a potential fan they want to know why you started your blog, who you are and if they can make a personal connection with you. Your about page should tell that story and show your audience why they should care about what you have to say.
I've noticed that we tend to only scratch the surface. A lot of about pages only say something to the effective of "I'm a girl, I like XYZ and I want to share my passions with the world.
Unfortunately that isn't enough. It's not enough to say your name and your hobbies. Your about page should tell a story and let us know why we should invest in you!
Here are a few suggestions:
Have a photo (or several) so that we can put a face to a name.
I know that some of you want to hide your blog from you boss, church members or even your family but I hate to see a blog with no pictures of the person writing it. This only alienates your audience and makes you less relatable. How can we trust you if you aren't showing your face?
If your blog is something that you have to hide it might be time to rethink it.
Use a name even if it's a pen name.
I know several bloggers who use pen names to make their blogs less detectable or because they think their name is boring. It's really off putting when I have no idea what to call a blogger. If you're just noticing that your about page doesn't have a name or that all of your posts are written by Admin maybe you should change that.
Include details.
Let us know what you want out of life and why you started blogging. If you only started blogging because all the cool kids were doing it this will fall flat, but if you have a purpose for your blog this is where you will shine. I always tell bloggers that they have to dig deep for that purpose. It makes a difference.
Tell A Story.
Make us care about you. Why should we visit your blog every week?
What elements do you think add to the about page story?

Diploma Programme in Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation CCE
Diploma in School Leadership
Diploma in Multiple Intelligence and Blooms Taxonomy
The theory of multiple intelligences was proposed by Howard Gardner in 1983 to more accurately define the concept of intelligence and to address the question whether methods which claim to measure intelligence (or aspects thereof) are truly scientific.
Gardner's theory argues that intelligence, particularly as it is traditionally defined, does not sufficiently encompass the wide variety of abilities humans display. In his conception, a child who masters multiplication easily is not necessarily more intelligent overall than a child who struggles to do so. The second child may be stronger in another kind of intelligence and therefore 1) may best learn the given material through a different approach, 2) may excel in a field outside of mathematics, or 3) may even be looking at the multiplication process at a fundamentally deeper level, which can result in a seeming slowness that hides a mathematical intelligence that is potentially higher than that of a child who easily memorizes the multiplication table.
The Eight Intelligences :
1) Verbal-Linguistic
- The Writer/Speaker Children with strong Verbal-Linguistic intelligence will have a propensity to produce language and sensitivity to the nuances, order and rhythm of words. These students love to read, write and tell stories. They have good memories for names, places, dates and trivia. Professionals with strong VL intelligence will be writers, public speakers, teachers, and actors. Some historical examples include Abraham Lincoln, T.S. Elliot and Charlton Heston.
2) Math-Logical - The Scientist
Children with strong Math-Logical intelligence have the ability to reason deductively and can recognize and manipulate abstract patterns or relationships. Students who have strong problem-solving and reasoning skills will excel in this intelligence. Adults with this intelligence will work as scientists, mathematicians, computer programmers, lawyers or accountants. Some historical examples include Albert Einstein, Nicolae Tesla, Alexander Graham Bell.
3) Spatial - The Builder
Children with Spatial intelligence have the ability to create visual-spatial representations and can transfer them mentally or concretely. Students who exhibit this intelligence need a mental or physical "picture" to understand the information being presented. Professionals in this intelligence are typically graphic artists, architects, cartographers and sculptors. Some historical examples include Frank Lloyd Wright, Pablo Picasso, and Bobby Fischer.
4) Musical - The Composer
Children with strong Musical intelligence have great sensitivity to the rhythm of sounds (e.g. pitch, timbre, composition). Students strong in this intelligence will enjoy listening to music and may ultimately work as singers, songwriters, composers, or even music teachers. Some historical examples include Ludwig van Beethoven, J.S. Bach, and Mozart.
5) Bodily-Kinesthetic - The Athlete
Children with strong Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence gravitate towards athletics; however, they also may use their bodies to solve problems, or convey ideas and emotions. Students with BK intelligence will be good at physical activities, have good hand-eye coordination and may have a tendency to move around a lot while expressing themselves. Professionals using BK intelligence will include athletes, surgeons, dancers and even inventors. Some historical examples include Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Andre Agassi.
6) Interpersonal - The Peacemaker
Children with strong Interpersonal intelligence work effectively in a group and understand and recognize the goals, motivations and intentions of others. Students with this intelligence thrive in cooperative, group work situations and are skilled at communicating, mediating and negotiating. Professionals in this intelligence may be teachers, therapists, and salespeople. Some historical examples include Mohandas Gandhi, Mother Theresa and Ronald Reagan.
7) Intrapersonal - The Philosopher
Children who are strong in the Intrapersonal intelligence have the ability to understand one's own emotions, goals and motivations. These students have good instincts about their strengths and abilities. This intelligence will be highly developed in professionals who work as philosophers, psychiatrists or religious leaders. Some historical examples include Eleanor Roosevelt and Sigmund Freud.
8) Naturalist - The Earth Lover
Children with strong focus in this intelligence will exhibit an affinity for all things nature. These students will enjoy and thrive when learning about nature topics, such as flora and fauna. Some professions with focus on this intelligence will include forest rangers, botanists, farmers and biologists. Some historical examples include Charles Darwin, John Muir.

Creamy Kaboucha Porridge
I love my big bowls of morning porridge. I get so excited when I try a new recipe and it works. I've been on a chocolate kick lately. Not a rich dark chocolate sorta deal, I just love the slight bitter flavor of cacao in my otherwise sweet food.  This recipe was definitely inspired by my Chocolate-Zucchini Porridge, but with the incredible kaboucha squash that I discovered in the freezer section of Trader Joe's. I'd been wanting to experiment with squash in my smoothies/ breakfast bowls, and just hadn't had the time to cut and roast a whole squash. This find was an awesome solution. (On this note, I've seen chopped butternut squash in the freezer section of Whole Foods and Wegmans if you don't have a Trader Joe's near you). This Creamy Kaboucha Porridge turned out so creamy and filling. I loved the sweet, natural flavors from the syrup and banana, countered by the slightly bitter cacao and bland, but warm, kaboucha squash. Give this recipe a try one of these mornings and let me know what you think!
Author: The Local Sprout
Recipe type: Breakfast
- ⅓ cup oats
- ¼ cup cup rice & quinoa hot cereal (you can purchase this at Trader Joes, but steel cut oats would also work)
- ½ cup chopped kaboucha squash (you can find this in the freezer section at Trader Joes)
- ½ banana, thinly sliced
- ½ cup plant-based milk
- 1 tso chia seed
- ½ tsp cacao powder
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- Toppings (optional):
- cacao nibs
- hemp seeds
- chia seeds
- Overnight version:
- Mix and mash all ingredients in a quart-sized mason jar (a fork works well to mash the banana and combine the sticky almond butter). Refrigerate overnight (or at least 3 hours). Enjoy warm (microwaved for 1-2 minutes) or cold.
- Stovetop version:
- In a medium-sized pot over medium heat, stir together all ingredients. Bring to a low boil and then reduce the heat to medium to simmer. Cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent clumping, until thickened. Stir in extra milk or water if needed.

Hippocrates and Medicine in the Third Millennium
The Hippocratic Oath - the promise of high standards of behaviour and practice for generations of doctors - is being whittled away or replaced with humanistic codes which exclude some of Hippocrates' most important ideas.
Originally published by the Christian Medical and Dental Society. Republished with the permission of the author.
John Patrick
Physician and Professor at the University of Ottawa, Director of Education and Public Policy for the Christian Medical and Dental Society, internationally-known commentator on medical ethics, organizer of the Canadian Registry of Hippocratic Practitioners for physicians who the support the Hippocratic Oath
For most people Hippocrates is a shadowy figure somehow connected to the ethical practice of medicine; they feel vaguely comforted by the supposed fact that doctors take a Hippocratic Oath of practice upon graduation. The truth is that very few take the Oath of Hippocrates; some take a revisionist version, which retains the name but removes the content; many make no commitment to rigorously defined ethical standards. There are many bio-ethicists who argue that the Oath of Hippocrates is irrelevant to our society for reasons which I will make plain shortly.
I do not intend to spend time on the historical Hippocrates, because even his existence is still a topic of contention and my objectives are theological and philosophical rather than historical. I wish, therefore, to focus on the Oath and its implications. The Oath is commonly given as follows;
Oath of Hippocrates
I swear by Apollo Physician and Aesclepius and Hygeia and Panacea and all the gods and goddesses, making them my witness, that I will fulfil according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this covenant: To hold him who has taught me this art as equal to my parents and to live in partnership with him, and if he is in need of money to give him a share of mine, and to regard his offspring as equal to my brother in male lineage and to teach them this art - if they deserve to learn it - without fee and covenant: to give a share of precepts and oral instruction and all the other learning to my sons and to the sons of him who has instructed me and to pupils who have signed the covenant and taken an oath according to the medical law, but to no one else. I will apply dietetic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice. I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody if asked for it, not will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly, I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art. I will not use the knife, not even on sufferers from stone, but will withdraw in favour of such men as are engaged in this work. Whatever house I visit, I will come for the benefit of the sick, remaining free of all intentional injustice, of all mischief and in particular of sexual relations with both female and male persons, be they free or slave. Whatever I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside the treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread abroad, I will keep to myself holding such things shameful to be spoken about. If I fulfil this oath and do not violate it, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and art, being honoured with fame among all men for all time to come. If I transgress it and swear falsely, may the opposite of all this be my lot.
To hold him who has taught me this art as equal to my parents and to live in partnership with him, and if he is in need of money to give him a share of mine, and to regard his offspring as equal to my brother in male lineage and to teach them this art - if they deserve to learn it - without fee and covenant: to give a share of precepts and oral instruction and all the other learning to my sons and to the sons of him who has instructed me and to pupils who have signed the covenant and taken an oath according to the medical law, but to no one else.
I will apply dietetic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice.
I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody if asked for it, not will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly, I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art.
I will not use the knife, not even on sufferers from stone, but will withdraw in favour of such men as are engaged in this work.
Whatever house I visit, I will come for the benefit of the sick, remaining free of all intentional injustice, of all mischief and in particular of sexual relations with both female and male persons, be they free or slave.
Whatever I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside the treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread abroad, I will keep to myself holding such things shameful to be spoken about.
If I fulfil this oath and do not violate it, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and art, being honoured with fame among all men for all time to come. If I transgress it and swear falsely, may the opposite of all this be my lot.
I have gathered a number of Oaths from medical schools across Canada. Not one of them contains several of the essential features of the Oath of Hippocrates. In other words, where the name is used it is used in the modern revisionist sense where the name of Hippocrates is used to make the public feel comfortable. But the reality that he stood for has been removed. Kierkegaard said we would be a passionless century that took the heart of meaning out of the institutions of our world and left the sham edifice standing.
The opening phrase of the Oath of Hippocrates is worthy of deep reflection. The literal form of the Oath cannot be sworn by Christians but they will relate immediately to the intent of Hippocrates and his followers, unlike sophisticated moderns and post-moderns who dismiss it as a mere vestigial marker of cultural superstitions unworthy of a scientific age. Certainly Hippocrates would find little with which to sympathize in the dominant model for the teaching of medicine today, which is founded on the cultural hubris that our categories supersede those of Hippocrates because it presumes that medicine is adequately described by the categories of biology, psychology and sociology. The transcendent dimension is denied. This bio-psycho-social model I usually describe as weighed in the balances and found wanting. The fact that ninety percent or more of medical students do not understand my meaning merely emphasizes my point. Neither do you, dear reader, understand unless the metaphor, "weighed in the balances", was correctly related to the story of Belshazzar's feast.
For modern medical students my dismissal of the bio-psycho-social model is just evidence of my patriarchal, white male, incapacity to deal with the real world, besides which, they are bright so they can fix any minor defects in the model themselves. Such is their pride. If they had been properly educated they would, at least, have recognized that my charge was more serious than merely suggesting that the bio-psycho-social model is a few grams underweight. Belshazzar had profaned the sacred vessels of the Jews when the hand wrote on the wall; "Mene, mene, tekel, uparsin." No one understood until Daniel was sent for. He told them that the words meant that Belshazzar and his kingdom had been weighed in the balances and found wanting and they were consigned to history next morning at the hands of Darius.
My objection to the bio-psycho-social model is that it is profoundly and profanely wrong because it denies that we are all spiritual beings. It has no place in its understanding for the most profoundly moving and significant events which we, as physicians, are ever privileged to witness. I recently heard a beautiful account of an agnostic Jew's description of one such event. She is a physician who carries a pager at all times, in order to give palliative care to her patients in their time of need. Early one morning she was called to a patient, who wished to die at home but he had begun to suffer pain and was convulsing. When she had done all she could, the patient was no better. The unwanted death in hospital seemed inevitable but before the family agreed they called the church music group of which the patient had been a member to come and sing at the bedside. They came and as they began to sing in the small hours of the morning the patient relaxed and ceased convulsing. When they stopped, he deteriorated, when they sang he improved and was comfortable. So for 24 hours they sang until he died peacefully. The agnostic physician simply said to her colleagues; "I tell you this story to remind you that there are things out there we do not understand." It is our job, as those who believe that more than things there is a Person out there who loves us, to witness to these things; to hold our colleagues to their commitment to the facts; to reality; to recognize that it is another form of intolerance that demands that no space be provided for such witness in hospitals.
The significance of the invocation of the gods in the Oath of Hippocrates cannot be overstated. It places patients and their physicians in a world with a transcendental dimension. The practical value of such an enculturated understanding is that a physician who believes in transcendence, particularly where that belief includes the ideas of moral consequence and ultimate accountability with judgment, has reason to be ethical because he fears God appropriately. Solomon thought such fear was the beginning of wisdom and who are we to argue with him? Great physicians have often agreed. The Christian Medical and Dental Society of Canada takes a wonderful piece of prose by one such physician, Thomas Sydenham, as its mission statement.
"It becomes every man who purposes to give himself to the care of others, seriously to consider the four following things:-First, that he must one day give an account to the Supreme Judge of all the lives entrusted to his care. Secondly, that all his skill, and knowledge, and energy as they have been given him by God, so they should be exercised for His glory, and the good of mankind, and not for mere gain or ambition. Thirdly, and not more beautifully than truly, let him reflect that he has undertaken the care of no mean creature, for, in order that he may estimate the value, the greatness of the human race, the only begotten Son of God became himself a man, and thus ennobled it with His divine dignity, and far more than this, died to redeem it. And fourthly, that the doctor being himself a mortal man, should be diligent and tender in relieving his suffering patients, inasmuch as he himself must one day be a like sufferer."
Thomas Sydenham (1642-1689)
Transcendence was still active in the 17th century at the highest reaches of the practice of medicine. Why is it so different now? Would to God that we had the like of Sydenham leading our profession today.
The best that the bio-psycho-social model can offer is an unpredictable utility, without any guarantee that the dominant utility will be that of the patient rather than the economist, administrator or the physician. Those who deny the existence of objective truth and say that we create our own values have no basis for collegial laws. At the heart of medical ethics, as opposed to bio-ethics, lies the privileged relationship between the physician and the patient; a privilege which can be and is, on occasion, abused. Its control is not susceptible to simple bureaucratic measures. Ultimately, as Sydenham understood, it is only submission to God and God's truths which protect the patients. In the worst case scenario the main witness is dead and the documentary evidence written primarily by the physician. A physician is only required to display appropriate attitudes to pass with honours in the modern medical school. The current evaluation of medical students concerns itself with their attitudes rather than their character. At the end of our lives it is not beautifully presented attitudes that we need but formed character that will strengthen us and accompany us to the gates of death without illusions. But if values are subjective they are not consistently predictable. Oaths only make sense when God is at the heart of what people believe to be true. Codes are all that is left to a people who have lost their God. Character on the other hand is what a man is and habitually does.
Oaths and Codes
One of the greatest horrors of the second world war was that the physicians of one of the most cultured nations of Europe not only did not protest against the eugenic and racist killings of the Nazis but co-operated with them. The first gas chambers were designed by psychiatrists and the concentration camps maintained the fiction of "medical" selection for the gas chambers by having physicians in charge of those selections. The Nazis merely extended the logic of the eugenics already incorporated into the beliefs of the profession of medicine. (The process is being repeated as we accept the results of molecular biology which consistently allow the detection of "malformed or diseased" children in utero but rarely lead to cures. The main result will be an increase in eugenic abortions.)
The debate after the war was intense and led to the promulgation of the World Medical Association's Code of Ethics.
I solemnly pledge myself to consecrate my life to the service of humanity; I will give to my teachers the respect and the gratitude which is their due; I will practise my profession with conscience and dignity; The health of my patient will be my first consideration; I will respect the secrets which are confided in me; I will maintain by all the means in my power, the honour and the noble traditions of the medical profession; My colleagues will be my brothers; I will not permit considerations of my religion, nationality, race, party politics or social standing to intervene between my duty and my patient; I will maintain the utmost respect for human life from the time of conception; even under threat I will not use my medical knowledge contrary to the laws of humanity; I make these promises solemnly, freely and upon my honour.
The change from oath to code denotes that the problem of Nazi behaviour was not dealt with. The code is a rationalistic document, without the invocation of transcendence. The medicalized killings in Germany and subsequently in Russia were rational killings. It is a question of whose rationality is dominant. The Oath involved transcendence and drew the physician into a covenantal relationship. The richness of the idea of covenant compared to the poverty of the modern concept of code or terms of contract is illustrated by the prose Paul Ramsey uses to describe it:
"Justice, fairness, righteousness, faithfulness, canons of loyalty, the sanctity of life, hesed, agape or charity are some of the names given to the moral quality of attitude and of action owed to all men by any man who steps into covenant with another man."
Thus the physician accepted the one-sided responsibility to be with his patient throughout an illness or up to death, and this commitment was embodied by the best physicians although they never expressed it with Ramsey's precision. Patients tacitly understood this and responded with loyalty. To turn from this tacit transcendentalism to modern codes and contracts is like turning the ten commandments into the ten guidelines.
Anthropologists are well aware that levels of trust vary between societies. Here in Canada we are in the midst of a rapid decline in levels of trust for two reasons. First, because the reductionist, truth-denying character of the modern University is becoming the ethos of the whole society. Second, because Christians are changing from communities of distinctive character where trust can flourish, such as the Mennonite prairie communities of the early twentieth century in which theft was a rarity, to anonymous loose associations of people who meet briefly on Sunday morning in our cities and suburban deserts. For those without any spiritual support these post-modern, characterless living spaces are places in which theft and disregard for people are commonplaces. Walk-in clinics and the progressive commercialization of medicine are medical examples of the loss of communities of character. What the Hippocratic Oath gave substance to was a vision of a medical community with a predictable character of high ethical standards which could support justifiable trust between physician and patient with all the therapeutic benefit which such a community produces. Such communities only flourish where the shared story which gives meaning is transmitted in childhood by members and particularly by parents, who inhabit the same story. In Central Africa today, traditional healers still practice pre-Hippocratic medicine. They have real abilities but they are feared not loved for reasons which I will now describe.
Sanctity of Life
The main reason for the modern dismissal of the Oath of Hippocrates by those who know its content is its commitment to the absolute sanctity of life. Neither abortion nor mercy killing find any place in the thought of Hippocrates. Why was this commitment so central? Margaret Mead, the libertarian anthropologist, clearly understood, when she wrote;
For the first time in our tradition there was a complete separation between killing and curing. Throughout the primitive world, the doctor and the sorcerer tended to be the same person. He with power to kill had power to cure, including specially the undoing of his own killing activities. ... With the Greeks, the distinction was made clear. One profession, the followers of Asclepius, were to be dedicated completely to life under all circumstances, regardless of rank, age, or intellect - the life of a slave, the life of the Emperor, the life of a foreign man, the life of a defective child. ... [T]his is a priceless possession which we cannot afford to tarnish, but society always is attempting to make the physician into a killer - to kill the defective child at birth, to leave the sleeping pills beside the bed of the cancer patient. ... [I]t is the duty of society to protect the physician from such requests. [1]
This tradition is never more important to us individually than at that extraordinary point in life when we choose to become patients. At this point a profound psychological event occurs. Even physicians, on becoming patients will recognize this reality. When one is ill, one needs someone whom one can trust to do what is best for us. No amount of verbal papering over the cracks by substituting client for patient will change the reality that sick people want someone else to handle the difficult problems. You may be a client when you choose who will fix your hernia but you are not a client when you have septicaemia and renal failure. This is where Hippocrates changed the direction of medicine. Ancient and modern pre- and post-Hippocratic physicians were and are willing to kill for a price, whether financial or ideological. There is, as Gerald Manley Hopkins put it, "a death dance in our veins"; Kevorkian illustrates this for anyone with eyes to see. Thus when you go to such physicians you must always worry whether someone else has paid more for your death than you have for your life. Those followers who took the Oath of Hippocrates removed this fear, generated a substantial trust and consequently became the physicians of choice. It was patient choice and the desire to have an income, which forced the medical profession to adopt the higher ethical standards of the Hippocratic community not the intrinsic nobility of the medical community.
The adherents of a great tradition are largely unaware of their own premises, which lie deeply embedded in the unconscious foundations of Practice... if the citizens are dedicated to certain transcendent obligations and particularly to such general ideals as truth, justice, charity and these are embedded in the tradition of the community to which allegiance is maintained, a great many issues between citizens, and all to some extent can be left - and are necessarily left - for individual consciences to decide. The moment however a community ceases to be dedicated through its members to transcendent ideals, it can continue to exist undisrupted only by submission to a single centre of unlimited secular power. [2]
What we have to come to terms with now is that this consensus no longer exists and it is our failure to appreciate this that lies at the heart of our problems. A small episode before the United States senate illustrates the modern realities. Martha Nussbaum is a Professor of Philosophy, Classics and Comparative Literature with an international reputation. In the Colorado Supreme Court Amendment 2 case, the homosexual community attempted to claim that the people could not pass an amendment which prohibited laws making "gay, lesbian or bisexual conduct a ground for minority status, or claim of discrimination." In order to do this they needed to show that in pre-Christian times homosexuality was not considered shameful, so that they could claim that current opinions are merely the products of Christian bigotry. Several scholars claimed that Socrates, Plato and Aristotle actually held the same view as traditional Christians. Nussbaum in a written rebuttal, which is not subject to the laws of perjury, claimed that they were guilty of poor scholarship but to substantiate this she misquoted her own book, which is in agreement with the other scholars. In doing so, Nussbaum, like other scholars, was making a distinction between her behaviour as a citizen concerned to achieve particular legal ends and her behaviour as a scholar concerned with accuracy. In this context, ends justified means including mis-representation of your own work! In this world we must expect to face opposition which has an entirely different hierarchy of goods from those that were historically associated with Christian culture and does not necessarily place truth telling at the top of the list.
The Physician Patient Relationship
In this narcissistic era where individual autonomy is always first it comes as a surprise to realize that patient rights have no place in Hippocrates' thinking. That, say the modern generation of bio-ethicists, is good reason to dismiss Hippocrates. But is it? Hippocrates lived in a pagan ethos where life was cheap and promises easy. His time did not have two thousand years of Christian thought anchoring it down. In such times patient autonomy was meaningless because the relationship was intrinsically unbalanced. All the power lay in the hands of the physician. The patient's safety therefore lay in the ethics of the physician. If the physician took the Oath of Hippocrates he swore to do no harm, to recognize the limits of his competence and refer appropriately, he swore to honour his profession by not abusing his opportunities for sexual gratification and he swore to treat all men equally. The patient's safety lay in doing everything to preserve the physician's integrity, to avoid even subtle coercion to kill or to abort. Remarkably there is little evidence that European culture did other than encourage physician integrity to the Oath of Hippocrates until the last century where once again rationalistic hubris began to erode this cultural gift. Now, as a result, we have College courts trying to enforce the unenforceable and killing a few innocent sheep in the process. "The best" said Yeats, "lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity." How right he is.
These days many writers are comparing our times to those of the sack of Rome. MacIntyre puts it like this:
It is always dangerous to draw too precise parallels between one historical period and another; and among the most misleading of such parallels are those which have been drawn between our own age in Europe and North America and the epoch in which the Roman empire declined into the Dark Ages. Nonetheless certain parallels there are. A crucial turning point in that earlier history occurred when men and women of good will turned aside from the task of shoring up the Roman imperium and ceased to identify the continuation of civility and moral community with the maintenance of that imperium. What they set themselves to achieve instead - often not recognizing fully what they were doing - was the construction of new forms of community within which the moral life could be sustained so that both morality and civility might survive the coming ages of barbarism and darkness. If my account of our moral condition is correct, we ought also to conclude that for some time now we too have reached that turning point. What matters at this stage is the construction of local forms of community within which civility and the intellectual and moral life can be sustained through the new Dark Ages which are already upon us. And if the tradition of the virtues was able to survive the horrors of the last dark ages, we are not entirely without grounds for hope. This time, however, the barbarians are not waiting beyond the frontiers; they have already been governing us for quite some time. And it is our lack of consciousness of this that constitutes part of our predicament. We are waiting not for a Godot, but for another - doubtless very different - St. Benedict. [3]
If a Barbarian is someone who does not know and celebrate his own history then we are Barbarians and the question is, who will be our St. Benedict to give us a rule to order our lives? We might do far worse than to commence by addressing ourselves to finding out who are the Hippocratic physicians who will fore swear killing and join company with them so that when the Barbarians come to remove that bulwark we can retreat into a sector of medicine where that virtue can be kept alive. My suspicion is that we constitute more than enough to demand and achieve a legitimate and continuing sector of Hippocratic medicine in this pluralistic society. The old consensus has gone but no new one is yet dominant therefore we have a right to practice medicine in the Hippocratic way as long as we serve a significant proportion of the population. The new medicine has no right to totalitarian power although if we are not alert it may usurp it. I guarantee that no school of medicine offers a course on Christian ethics but only of that oxymoron secular ethics which should be called "secular behaviour". In the meantime we must talk about the necessity of transcendence, of a commitment to the sanctity of life, to training within a moral ethos, and to the critical importance of the preservation of the moral integrity of the physician even over illegitimate claims of patient autonomy, if medicine is to be preserved.

SCS Film Room: Houston Rockets lose to Champs – 3 video lessons
SCS Film Room examines the Houston Rockets loss to the Cavaliers dissecting the video for lessons learned in the loss.
Arguably the Houston Rockets played their best game of the season, but ultimately fell short after a massive fourth quarter by the champs.
On tap a grueling 5 game road trip for the Houston Rockets which began November 1st in Cleveland with a tough loss to the Cavaliers.
Here's how the game broke down by individual quarters:
In fact the loss in the Q is of the kind that makes you optimistic for the remainder of the season.
For starters the Rockets had only 7 turnovers whereas the Cavaliers had 11. The team also managed to contain LeBron James to just 19 points. Finally H-town's bench scored 32 points merely 2 points less than Cavs' bench (34).
Indeed what played a huge part in Houston Rockets defeat was the Cavaliers long ball. The reigning champs were 16-for-32 from beyond the arc for a smashing 50%. J.R. Smith went 5-for-11 and Kyrie Irving 4-for-6 from three point range sealing the deal for Cleveland.
Kyrie Irving in particular had another off the charts performance finishing with 32 points despite strong defense by Eric Gordon.
As for Houston, James Harden continued his MVP journey with 41 points, 15 assists, 7 rebounds and just 1 turnover.
Conversely Ryan Anderson remains a no-show. Although Ryno registered 12 points his presence on both ends of the court is barely felt. The team still lacks a strong power forward to protect the paint, skirmish and tussle against offensive powerhouses like Kevin Love for example.
Eric Gordon keeps being the second-best offensive weapon Houston has in its arsenal. And he might even feel robbed of some great defensive plays tonight as we'll show ahead.
SCS Film Room offers 3 lessons learned accompanied with video straight ahead!
Eric Gordon on the Rise
For anyone covering the Houston Rockets' free agent moves the defensive apocalypse was predicted when Eric Gordon got signed.
However 4 games in and we're yet to see that so called deficiency on defense. Tonight as well as in the 3 games prior Gordon keeps impressing with some solid defense.
Sure he ended up with a +/- of -16, but to make my point ake a look at the following clip:
Can anyone blame him for the high pressure defense on Irving? That's not bad defense, that's just amazing offense.
But if you're not convinced, take a look at the next play:
Gordon reaches in for ALL BALL… and gets called for the foul!
Now the odds of anyone defeating an already strong Cavs team whenever steals like that are called for foul greatly decreases.
The former Pelicans shooting guard ended up with 5 fouls of which at least 2 of them were absolutely clean including the one you see above.
Offensively Gordon had a superb 12 point fourth quarter, finishing with 16 points, 2 steals and 3 assists. Furthermore the shooting guard remains Houston's biggest threat from long range and knocked down 4-of-9 shots against Cleveland.
Nene's Overall Skills
In my last SCS Film Room I raised some question marks regarding Nene's fitness and overall performance. Since then however, Nene's been a revelation.
As an illustration against the Cavaliers the Brazilian powerhouse surprised us all with a three-point shot! Only the 5th of his career.
Nevertheless, what particularly stood-out from the big guy was his passing skills. Take a look below at two spectacular assists by Nene against Cavs:
The Brazilian ended up with 4 assists to go with his 13 points and 5 rebounds. Indeed the center's ability passing the rock could very well become a strong addition for Houston Rockets arsenal going forward.
James Harden's Road to the MVP Award
There's only so much you can talk about the Rockets without inevitably circling back to James Harden.
Not only is the Arizona St. product dominating games and filling stat sheets, rather he seems to be on a mission. A mission to erase last year's failures, rumors, Shaqtin- a-fool award, and doubts that constantly plagued his 2015-16 season.
Harden got SMASHED last season. His relationships on and off the court got scrutinized and his position as a franchise-player was called in to question.
That did not sit right with Harden and apparently he's now on a path to single-handedly (if need be) force his Rockets team to gain success.
To that end, Rockets highlights were all Harden as the shooting guard turned point guard takes part in even more plays.
For instance let's check out his impact distributing the basketball. Harden draws so much attention and double-teams from opponents that he can easily find an open man. Watch below as he effortlessly assists Capela and Nene for the dunk shot:
Yet that's only the tip of the iceberg. With opponents worried about the threat of an assist it ends up clearing the lane for a lot of easy drives by Harden.
Harden's offensive potential looks limitless with Mike D'Antoni. Can he take the Houston Rockets to greener pastures? Clearly Harden can move mountains, but he still needs help.
Up next the Houston Rockets will face the New York Knicks tonight in the second game of their first back to back series. Here's the team profiles for your perusal.
