Another reason to hate Crowdstrike: it seems like nearly everybody who had to cancel their doctor's appointments the day the computers at DFCI got bricked rescheduled for one week later, which was yesterday, meaning the pharmacy had double the workload from both its normal flow of work and also last Friday's getting pushed back. Man, was yesterday a bad day to be a pharmtech at DFCI.

Given that they are in the news again....I couldn't help myself.

Defense for Children International-Palestine writes:

Rafat Omar Ahmad Khamayseh, 15, was shot by Israeli special forces while leaving his grandfather’s house in Jenin refugee camp around 7:30 p.m. on September 19, according to documentation collected by Defense for Children International - Palestine. As he left the house, Rafat saw Israeli special forces exiting three Palestinian licensed cars and surround the home of the father of a Palestinian man wanted for arrest. Rafat fled, yelling, “Special forces! Special forces!” One Israeli soldier chased Rafat and shot him in the abdomen from a distance of 10 meters (33 feet).    

While nearly all of the reports on the Jenin incident identify Khamayseh as being 22 years old, photos indicate that he probably really was 15.

And that he was not exactly an innocent child.

Yet even if we take DCI-P at their word that all he was doing was warning terrorists that the IDF was there, that makes him legally a militant and a legitimate military target.

The US Department of Defense Law of War Manual (revised July 2023) says that a civilian is considered to be taking a direct part in hostilities when he or she is "acting as a guide or lookout for combatants conducting military operations." 

The ICRC agrees. In its document "Interpretive Guidance on the Notion of Direct Participation in Hostilities Under International Humanitarian Law" it says,  "a person serving as one of several lookouts during an ambush would certainly be taking a direct part in hostilities although his contribution may not be indispensable to the causation of harm."

This is exactly what DCI-P is admitting that Khamayseh was doing. His warning endangered the Israeli forces and therefore he became a combatant and legitimate target, no matter what his age.

It seems I have started something with asking about relationship dynamics. (Kinda proud of that)

soooooooo, can we get Lyra and Madam relationship dynamic?

unlike most others, lyra and madame both applied to work at the DFCI and met there. Their meeting was fairly similar to their original one: madame gets placed in a group with lyra, aster, and bow.

because lyra is the most levelheaded of the three, madame naturally felt more comfortable around her. She knew a bit of sign language from a previous gig so she was able to understand lyra easier than the other two.

Lyra likes that Madame has a sense of maturity that the other two don't have as much of. It's just easier to get along with someone that way, although she can tell Madame definitely goes... a bit too far with it sometimes.

So she's started inviting her out to do regular non-work things.... maybe that'll help her loosen up a bit. If you see them outside at a cafe, a store, maybe even an arcade, it's lyra's idea for sure. I say arcade because poor Madame would spend all her money on cheap claw machines just to get Lyra something.

I think Lyra knew she had a crush wayyy before Madame did, but was too nervous to say anything. It was like that for months. Madame was the same way, but with a little push I think they both put 2 and 2 together....

Halfway Point Plus Red Sox!

The PMC is only 21 days away and I have crossed the halfway mark to my $12,000 goal!

I am confident that, with your help, I will get much closer to my goal as the date approaches.

In the meantime, tonight I will be attending my first PMC at Fenway Park event!

The PMC is the official charity of the Red Sox Foundation thanks in large part to the late Larry Lucchino.

In the words of Billy Starr, Founder and Executive Director of the PMC:

"…in [the] PMC world, there are few, if any, whose role allowed for such an oversized impact. Larry spoke at PMC Opening Ceremonies in 1995 (when he was with the San Diego Padres) and recognized the PMC’s potential immediately. When the Henry, Werner, Lucchino troika bought the team in 2002, Larry arranged for me to meet with John and Tom. My pitch was essentially: “The PMC is doing $15 million without you… imagine what we could raise with you.” Larry secured the sponsorship.

In 2003, the PMC signed a 3-year, $2.1 million sponsorship deal with the Red Sox. It was transformative – not just the money – but it being the first time – ever – a crown jewel sports franchise in the USA underwrote a bike event. Not a hospital, a bike event! Larry made that happen and the rest is history. He was smart, tough, fun, and deeply heartfelt. He had every reason to be, as a cancer survivor treated at Dana-Farber by PMC’s own Lee Nadler (who introduced the two of us). Larry always understood his obligation, and opportunity, to forward cancer research and treatment, given his Red Sox position and, soon thereafter, the Chairman of the Jimmy Fund as well as the co-chair of an earlier capital campaign (with current DFCI Chairman Josh Bekenstein). We were all the beneficiaries: from the Red Sox championships to a future filled with increasing hope for anybody receiving a cancer diagnosis. Larry was at the forefront of that battle as well. He will be terribly missed."

So at tonight's annual PMC Night at Fenway, PMC Riders who have survived cancer will be parading around the field before the game on their bikes. The PMC Logo will also be unveiled in its prominent position on the green Monster.

We have our commemorative hats and are very excited about tonight :-)

More than 50 research papers published by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI), a prestigious teaching center affiliated with Harvard Medical School, are under review this week following online claims that their images and data had been manipulated.

Sholto David, a British molecular biologist and blogger, wrote a post for the independent research integrity blog For Better Science on January 2, in which he accuses researchers at the institute of “data forgery.” The long and at times scathing blog post featured images such as protein bands, data plots and PCR results from the papers, which David alleges were manipulated via copy and paste or Photoshop. The studies in question had been published between 1999 and 2017.

If this is okay can we get Yanny or Destiny facts?

today, i shall do yanny

- has a habit of making friends with the most unlikely people... unless they work for the DFCI. nobody at the DFCI likes them.

- she's an expert at reading body language, but it doesn't seem like it because they will ignore it.

- lunium has a big farmer's market type event almost every weekend. yanny tables at it and makes apollo help. her stand is all about masks.

- their friendship with nagi was unexpected, but welcome. she just likes to talk about making things with him.

- that mask she has was her first ever mask. its very special to them... hence why they always have it.

Loi incendies : "On ne peut plus vivre comme avant autour des forêts", salue le président de la DFCI Aquitaine

Les députés ont adopté, en première lecture, la loi incendies dans la nuit de ce mercredi à ce jeudi. Elle prévoit notamment l'interdiction de fumer en forêt quand le risque de feux est élevé. L'association de défense des forêts contre l'incendie en Aquitaine demande aussi des condamnations "plus fortes pour les pyromanes".
