Lash of St. Francis
BY MIKE MAGEE
On September 25, 1939, Southern California woke with fear of The Lash of St. Francis or El Cordonazo on the horizon. The term refers to northwestern tracking, cyclone-laden storms that can hit the western shores of Mexico and California most commonly around the Feast of Saint Francis, on October 4th. This one made landfall at San Pedro, California.
The calamity that day in Southern California was a rare event, the only one of its kind in the 20th century. The last one to hit, prior to this was in San Diego on October 2,1858. The Earth’s rotation normally assures that such cyclones in this region move...

THCB 20th Birthday Classic: As I’ve always suspected, Health Care = Communism + Frappuccinos
By MATTHEW HOLT
Our 20th birthday continues with a few classics coming out. Back in 2005 I was really cutting a lyrical rug, and would never miss a chance to get that Cambridge training in Marxism into use. This essay about whether health care should be a public or private good has always been one of my favorites, even if I’m not sure Starbucks is still making Frappuccinos. And 18 years later the basic point of this essay remains true, even if many of you will not have a clue who Vioxx or Haliburton were or why they mattered back then!
Those of you who think I’m an unreconstructed commie will correctly suspec...

Globalization and occupation therapy - a continued musing.
I have been talking about the implications of globalization on the occupational therapy profession for quite some time - it started off withblog posts here and then apresentation at OT24VX in 2015. Then I gave the topic a whole chapter inmy theory textbook in 2019. Then there were more blog postshereandhere.In sum, I am uncertain if occupational therapy is a unitary global profession, although I now add this caveat:at least as understood in the publications of academics. I add this caveat now because I am uncertain if the things that people in academia write about truly reflects actual practice in oth...

Please go here formy first thoughts on sustainability in occupational therapy around ten years ago.I received an email from a colleague who has been an advocate and published author on this topic asking me if I had the opportunity to revisit my thoughts on sustainability and occupational therapy.In fact I have continued to think about this, so I thought I would document my response here.Hi XXXXX- Thanks for reaching out.
