Since Last We Spoke (Nurses Day Edition)
May 6, 2013 | Leave a Comment
A quick post to wish everyone a happy Nurses Day (in the US, or International Nurses Day, which is Sunday–you pick). I’m heading out the door to SoCal for a couple different stops with the Marines (1st defense, then prosecution, so should be a lively week), but I managed to get a little reading done [...]

I don’t know about you, but last week I reached my news saturation point. By Friday night I had to shut down my electronics and just get away from all of it. (My eyes needed a break, as the brilliant Amy Poehler stated.) So a lot of what I’ve been reading *isn’t* about Boston, but [...]

I confess, an absolutely gorgeous weekend here in DC kept me outside and away from all electronics most of the time. So what I’ve been reading since last we spoke is a bit scant. However, there’s some good stuff among the list for you this week–if you read nothing else, check out the piece on busyness [...]

I just arrived at Ft. Bragg, anticipating a fantastic workshop tomorrow on expert testimony with the folks down here. Should be a very full, very fun day spent on one of my favorite topics. Prep has centered around that (and our 1st live Sustainability course, which happened this afternoon), so not a lot of time [...]

This week is crazy. Hell, this month is crazy. I know a lot of you are booked up with events and engagements. After all, here in the US, April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month; Crime Victims’ Rights Week is April 21-27. Lots going on. Happily I had a lovely family weekend before things really [...]

This weekend gave us a glimpse of spring here in the DC area, so I spent as much time as possible outside. However, I am prepping for a quick trip to the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area (hope to some of you there–we’ll be talking about testimony, one of my favorite subjects!), so I wasn’t entirely unplugged. [...]

Back in my office after a lovely visit with a really diverse group of forensic nurses in Australia. The trip back from Australia? Less lovely. Much. The good news about the cluster&*@k that was my trip home? Well, I might need some time before I can come up with something, but the extra time added [...]

I am heading to Sydney today, and while I am hoping to keep posts fairly regular for the week, please bear with me. My intention is also to tweet from the conference where I am able, so look for that, as well. This weekend my kiddo was in town, so it was mostly play time [...]

Mark your calendar: the inaugural Forensic Journal Club is coming up 12 February. Find all the information you need to participate here. Clearly, I needed the weekend to recover, which is exactly what I did. Surrounded myself with loved ones (and my pup) and played down in Charlottesville with good friends. I held a few new [...]

Mark your calendar: the inaugural Forensic Journal Club is coming up 12 February. Find all the information you need to participate here. An FHO reader sent me a message this week asking when I was going to resume posting the lists of what I’ve been reading over the weekend. I hadn’t realized until receiving that [...]
