Writing's on the Wall

This song I believe deepens the plot of the movie Spectre.

Sam Smith - Writing's On The Wall (from Spectre)

Praise, Validate, Encourage

Praise: Use the following formula:
"You [have done something], which [caused positive effect]. I appreciate [this quality you are currently displaying]."
Validate:
"Recognize that this is how they feel, that this is their reality, and how hard that must be. “Yeah, I can see that you feel that way. That has to be difficult to deal with.” See how easy that is? Now remembering to do that instead of the knee jerk “NO, I REJECT YOUR REALITY AND SUBSTITUTE MY OWN” is the hard part."

Encouragement:
""Do you want encouragement right now, or just some venting space?” I’ve asked this question countless times and have always gotten a truthful answer. When I tailored my response to what the other person requested, they got what they needed. By asking, you’re letting them know that you’re there to support them and not just give empty lip-service. You’re giving them an opportunity to examine their own feelings and influence their own self-image."

Expectations and Happiness

[The formula explained in brief:
“Happiness depends on safe choices (certain rewards, CR), expectations associated with risky choices (expected value, EV), and whether the outcomes of risky choices were better or worse than expected. This final variable is called a reward prediction error (RPE), the difference between the experienced outcome and the expectation.”] - Excerpt

Memorizing

Memorizing
(a rough, free-written "Epic" poetry rendered by yours truly)

Tonight is an arduous journey,
of stuffing plethora into my mind.
I don't know when I'll stop,
but this subject I will never drop.

The Code of Hammurabi did say,
medical malpractice is punishable.
The use of emollient enemas,
as well as dietary regimentation,
proved to be probably of value
for treatment of diseases in Sumer.

Smith and Ebers Papyruses
provided diagnosis and pharmacopoeia.
Schistosoma eggs on mummies' kidneys,
and spinal tuberculosis were found.
Sekhet's Enanach and Imhotep,
were the big doctors of Egypt that time.

Huang Di Nei Jing is made up of
two groups Su Wen and Zhen Jing.
Acupuncture, visceral organs theory
as well as channels and collaterals -
ancient China found these theories,
dealt with 311 diseases in 44 categories.

Shang Han Za Bing Lun of Zhang Zhong Jing,
divided into Shang Han Lun and Jin Qui Yao Lue,
showed four methods and eight keys.
Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing and Nan Jing
were some of the other classics that
gave much, much information.

During the Vedic Period of India,
Charaka was quite famous.
The humoral theory was formed,
but was later challenged by many.
Meanwhile, in the Brahmanic Period,
Susruta was known too.

Advancements in Indian pharmacopoeia
was summarized into four plants:
Cannabis sativa, Datura and Hyocyamus,
as well as the Rauwolfia serpentina.
Surgical operations were quite good too;
such as tumor excision, amputation.

Long time ago before Hippocrates,
the Minoan civilization was healthy.
Empedocles, Anaxagoras, Herophilus -
all followed before Erasistratus.
then Alcmaeon, Aristotle and Asclepius,
thereafter came Hippocrates.

Hippocrates was pretty awesome;
Aphorisms and Prognostics did he write,
Fractures Dislocations and Wounds -
all of these are the things he wrote.
Astringents, emetics and narcotics
these were all used by him.

Later in the Roman Empire,
Asclepiades brought medicine alive.
Encyclopedists Marcus, Aulus and Pliny,
did a daunting breakthrough in medicine.
Later came the "all-hail" Galen,
known for myogenic theory of the heart.

After a plethora of people,
there came the Arabic medicine
which was highly eclectic,
even as far as the lands of China.

Rhazes in his Continent of Medicine,
identified smallpox from measels.
He then made his book Al-Hawi
a.k.a. De variolis et morbilis.
Still, Haly Abbas, in his Royal Book,
made a better version than Rhazes.

Albucasis, Avicenna and Avenzoar -
all did more breakthroughs.
Averroes, Maimonides and Al Quarashi -
so ends the mark of Arabic Medicine.

Salerno was the nexus of medical learning,
that produced Regimen Sanitatis -
which is a compendium of domestic medicine.
Monte Casino is such a important place,
St. Bernard of Nursia and Bertharius the III
pursued more in the medical field.

Taddeo Alderotti marked the start
of the important clinical case history.
Guy the Chauliac of the 13th century,
pretty smart saw the plague coming,
He also discovered stomach cancer;
"Father of French Surgery" is he indeed!

Henri de Mondeville pioneered in
antiseptic treatment as well as sutures.
Mundinus of Bologna dissected cadavers
but saw them through Galen and Avicenna.
Arnold of Villanova, being the hipster he is,
saw women "as poisonous creatures".

Trotula is a female professor,
a gynecologist in the great Salerno.
Lanfranchi and William of Saliceto -
deserve thanks for the world of surgery.
Later came Pietro d'Abano
who reconciled Greek and Arabic medicine.

Strange people are not strange to be seen
but here are some good examples:
St. Jerome saw no reason for baths.
Roger Bacon relied on chemicals.
St. Albertus Magnus did good things
as he made his biomedical research.

Gregory of Tours, however thought,
that seeking medical aid is heresy.
Funnily, however, Tertulian thought,
medical investigation was unnecessary.
Still, monastic hospitals are made,
like the well-known St. Bartholomew's.

Meanwhile in Philippines, surprisingly,
contributions are quite a lot.
Herbal medicine served Materia medica,
and the well known massage - the hilot.
