Working in the NHS as an immigrant nurse: a personal experience

Volume 30 · Issue 7
Since the inception of the NHS, nurses, midwives and health visitors have been a critical part of the workforce. Today, the NHS could be described as 'one NHS with many nationalities' (Baker, 2020).
As of June 2020, 169 000 NHS staff in England reported that they were non-British, representing around 200 different nationalities, amounting to 13.8* of all staff (Baker, 2020). Among nursing, 8.7* (27 943) are from an Asian background. Of these, almost 94* are either Indian or Filipino. Some 6* (19 325) of nurses are from countries in the European Union (EU) (of these, 52* are either Irish, Spanish or Portuguese); 2.5* (7938) nurses are from an African country and 559 are from Jamaica (Baker, 2020).
These statistics give a clear picture of the importance of immigrant nurses to the NHS workforce. However, the most important issues worldwide faced by internationally educated nurses when migrating to a new country are discrimination and unequal treatment, especially in countries such as the UK, Canada and the USA (Walani, 2015).

According to a new research report from Adobe, Google's Chrome browser has surpassed Microsoft's Internet Explorer as the most popular browser in the nation, at least by one important metric.
For the first time ever, Chrome surpassed IE in the number of visits to U.S.-based websites on both personal computers and mobile devices. Chrome (on desktop and Android, including older Android browsers built by Google) had 31.8 percent share in April, while IE had 30.9 percent. IE had 37 percent in the same quarter last year, while Google had 26 percent, showing a significant swing.
Adobe does agree with other reports, however, that Chrome is not the most popular browser in the U.S., with that crown still owned by Microsoft on desktops, and Safari for mobile. However, Safari has less than 7 percent share in desktop, and Microsoft's mobile browser presence is almost non-existent.
Google loves having Android users on Chrome, as the address bar also works for search with leads to Google search results, and most Android users are always logged in to Gmail, which allows for better tracking and pointed ads.

Alexandria: Four Mile Run Restored
Natural habitats slowly return to Alexandria's northern creek.
City Officials and citizens cut the ribbon for the new park Photo by Vernon Miles.
By Vernon Miles
Photo by Vernon Miles
Turtles and ducks in the goose-free zone of the restored Four Mile Run.
Dana Wedeles, park planner for the City of Alexandria, leads a group along the new Four Mile Run path.
In the 1970s, Alexandria was desperate. Throughout the '60s and '70s, Four Mile Run along the city's northern border with Arlington was flooding. Former U.S. Rep. James Moran remembers seeing the damage as the waters swept through Arlandria, pushing people out of their homes and destroying what was left. The city turned to the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, who dredged the creek and poured in a concrete foundation. In a way, the city was saved, but this also created a new problem. The concrete works destroyed many of the natural habitats that were formed along the stream, and the creek was transformed into a lifeless gully.
But this is not the Four Mile Run of 2016.
In 2009, a Master Plan was approved to maintain the flood mitigation measures but also to restore many of the natural habitats along the stream that had been lost. On Saturday, May 14, Moran joined other political and citizen leaders in celebrating the completion of the Four Mile Run restoration project. The total cost of the Four Mile Run restoration in Area 6, the wetlands area just east of Mount Vernon Avenue, was $1.8 million. Total project costs for the Four Mile Run restoration was divided between government agencies, contributions from Fairfax, Alexandria, and Arlington, as well as federal earmarks secured by Moran before he left office.
One of the most visibly striking aspects of the park, currently, is the field of bright pink ribbons tied to stakes in the tidal basin. When Moran rounded the corner and saw the basin, he said that for a moment he thought for a moment that the wetlands was home to a flock of flamingos. Dana Wedeles, Alexandria park planner, said the ribbons are set up to keep the geese away from eating the still-growing plants before they can become established. The flagging is expected to be removed in November once the plants are grown.
Aside from geese, Wedeles said the new park has a variety of wildlife, from turtles to foxes and deer. While walking along the trail, Wedeles pointed off to the side where several animal tracks were visible in the mud.
The project still has a few challenges. The restored wetlands area is regularly sprayed for invasive species, but just upstream the coast is littered with invasive plants. Garbage also floats down the creek and onto the shore from upstream, but Wedeles said there's not much can be done about that. Similarly, trash is always found at the same spot around the first curve from the path, where people can meet without being seen from the street. Police have been notified of the blind spot.
The biggest problem, however, is that shortly past that bend, the trail ends abruptly. The path slopes up near a tributary and stops with an orange construction sign. On the far side, a landing is visible where a bridge could easily connect coastline, and connect to the Mount Vernon trail nearby, but no connection currently exists.
"The grant was only for environmental sustained benefit," said Wedeles. "That does not include a bridge."
Wedeles said the city is currently in the process for bridge design in the fiscal year 2018 Capital Improvements Budget.
"Hopefully it will happen soon," said Wedeles.

Retired Navy officer recounts USS Cole attack
Deborah Highland, The Bowling Green Daily News via AP
Experts in a speed boat examine the hull of the USS Cole at the Yemeni port of Aden on Oct. 15, 2000. A powerful explosion ripped a hole in the U.S. Navy destroyer in the Yemeni port, killing 17 sailors and injuring some 30 others. (Dimitri Messinis/AP)
BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — "Before there was 9/11, there was 10/12."
Retired U.S. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Bob Overturf, a 1987 graduate of Bowling Green High School, said those words are a reference to the Oct. 12, 2000, attack on the USS Cole by al-Qaida suicide bombers off the coast of Yemen. Overturf was part of the crew of nearly 300 and survived the blast that claimed the lives of 17 sailors.
"The U.S. had intelligence information that a U.S. Navy ship was being targeted by (Osama) bin Laden," Overturf said.
Overturf lives in Virginia but returned to Bowling Green recently for a family visit and agreed to two interviews with the Daily News.
He credits ship Cmdr. Kirk S. Lippold with preventing more loss of life.
"It was Cmdr. Lippold's action that saved a lot of lives, his attitude and preventative actions when we pulled into Yemen because he took a lot of precautions 'just in case' based on that intel," Overturf said.
The blast blew a 40- by 60-foot gash in the side of the ship.
Overturf said he had been in the area of the ship that sustained the blow just two minutes before the attack. He was 70 feet away when the explosion tore through the ship.
Battered and injured, the crew members spent the next day and a half working to save the ship.
"We had to fight for the next 36 hours to save our ship and save all we could on board the ship," he said.
There were no waiting ambulances or firefighters to assist, only the shaken crew of the Cole.
"It took another 36 to 48 hours for another Navy ship to get to us. But even still we had to fight for the next 18 days to keep that ship afloat, to dig the bodies out of steel, to survive. No one can really comprehend what such hot temperatures in that part of the world can do when you've got tons of food and bodies rotting.
"You can't do anything about it. We're trying to save the ship and keep it afloat to get us out of there. With the heat, the smell became overpowering. Days and days and days later, other ships said they could smell us two miles away. The first three days into it, the embassy brings food and water and we all get dysentery from it. There is no calling in a sick day. You just have to work with poop in your pants. It could not have been any more humiliating, degrading or disgusting. It was a very long 18 days.
"By the end of those 18 days we had all kinds of people coming on board. After 18 days the Cole was taken out and lifted onto the motor vessel the Blue Marlin, which is a gigantic lift vessel. It's like a tow truck at sea for other ships. The crew were offloaded onto the USS Iwo Jima," he said.
Intelligence indicated after the attack that bin Laden wasn't satisfied with the death toll of the Cole bombing, and Cole sailors were removed from Cole onto the Iwo Jima by small boats under the cover of darkness, he said. The Cole's crew was then evacuated at night to a secret air base in the middle of a desert in another country and from there flown, once again at night, to Germany.
The military announced publicly the crew would be taken to a certain airstrip in Germany but instead they were flown to another, all in an effort to thwart another attack on the Cole's crew.
Overturf played a critical role in saving the Cole and for his efforts he was awarded the Navy Commendation Medal by the Secretary of the Navy.
Shortly thereafter, they returned to the United States for 30 days' leave.
"We reformed as a crew in an office building until we were slowly disbanded to other ships or commands," he said.
That call was a "mistake" because the surviving shipmates lost their sense of family and the support system they developed to help one another through their shared trauma, he said.
Four months later, and haunted by the images brought on by post-traumatic stress disorder, Overturf was assigned to the USS Barry.
"I had no business being on that ship," he said. "I had active hallucinations. I was a complete basket case with PTSD. I was completely out of my mind. I resented being reassigned off of the Cole, and I acted extremely disrespectfully to the captain and crew of the Barry. But they understood, and they embraced me and they took me in and got me through it, and I probably owed my life to them."
A bigger purpose
Overturf signed with the Navy while he was still a junior at Bowling Green High School. He was looking to become part of something larger than himself.
"I wanted something more. I didn't want to stay here and be like everybody else," he said.
Seven days after he walked his high school graduation line, he left for basic training in Orlando, Fla. His original plan was to be a rescue swimmer. But his sinus passages disqualified him from that service. So instead the Navy sent him to the Navy Electronic Technician School, where he had to confront math.
"It turned out to be the best thing," he said.
"I had always been a terrible, terrible student, specifically in math," he said. "As a result I had low self-esteem in academics. When I got to Navy Electronic Technician School, the first thing we had to do was learn different types of algebra. The pressure was immense and the fear was incredible. I learned how to study for the first time.
"I found out that I had a brain."
Once he completed training, instead of working in his field, the Navy sent him orders to be a security guard at the Naval Security Guard School in Lakehurst, N.J.
He was taught police investigations, emergency vehicle operations, self-defense, hand-to-hand combat and weapons training and was then sent to his first permanent duty station in Gaeta, Italy, where he served as a naval police officer for two and half years at the home port of the Navy's Sixth Fleet.
"Most of my times there I worked as a military policeman and protective detail for the commander of the Sixth Fleet. I also did anti-terrorism counter-surveillance," he said.
Still a fresh-faced teen barely out of high school, other officers with more experience treated him as an equal.
"Because I understood and appreciated that they gave me the ability to prove myself, I made sure not to mess that up," he said. "It opened up opportunities for me to do some really important things like work with the commander of the Sixth Fleet or do counter-surveillance activities for the Naval Criminal Investigative Services.
One night he might be out looking for drunken sailors in bars, and the next he might be investigating burglaries or providing protective detail for the admiral of the Sixth Fleet.
It was during this first assignment that Overturf encountered death.
"Because of the terrain and the roads we dealt with a lot of traffic accidents and a lot of death," he said. "I was that guy many times at 10 o'clock at night or two o'clock in the morning knocking on the door to tell them their wife or husband had just been killed."
One incident that had the most profound effect on him in the military surprisingly occurred in Italy and not on the USS Cole.
"There was an incident in which a military member was with his family and he collapsed from a heart attack. I was the first responder and I was doing CPR on him until we could get him to the clinic. His 6-year-old daughter was at my side screaming and begging me to save her daddy and I couldn't do it.
"It broke my heart."
Overturf served two tours in Italy and served a one-year tour with the multinational forces in Iraq as a strategic planner under Gen. David Petraeus.
"I worked with the people who developed the plan to roll U.S. forces out of Iraq. I spent my first four months in IZ," he said referring to the International Zone in central Baghdad.
"Every day and every night we would take mortar and rocket fire. There's only so many times you can be woken up in the middle of the night to run and jump in a concrete bunker before you get pissed off and tired of it and you just don't care."
At that point, you just stay in bed and learn to live with the new normal, he said.
After serving in Iraq, Overturf attended the Naval War College, where he earned his master's degree in national strategy and policy. One of his classmates was former White House press secretary Sean Spicer.
In 2012, he graduated and went to Washington, D.C., where he worked at the Naval Sea Systems Command.
One year into his service at the Washington Navy Yard, on Sept. 16, 2013, a lone gunman opened fire in Building 197. Overturf had just bought breakfast in the cafeteria and sat down at his desk when he saw the worried faces of some civilian employees and started asking questions.
Then he heard the gunshots.
He and his former Cole shipmate Cmdr. Jason Grabelle ushered people out of the building to safety. That day, the gunman killed 12 people before he was killed.
Now enjoying retirement after 27 years of service to the country, Overturf lives with his grown daughter and offers encouragement for others new to the military.
"Believe in yourself. You're capable of far more than you think you know. Don't let the day to day drag you down. Set your sights on the future and never stop working to improve yourself."

\section{Introduction}
In this paper we derive the thermal correction $\delta\Gamma_{H}$ of the width of the Higgs boson
to first order in the strong coupling constant $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$ and for temperatures $T$ of the QCD plasma that are
parametrically lower than the Higgs mass, $M_H \gg T$. We do so since we could not find an explicit expression
for  $\delta\Gamma_{H}$ in the literature when discussing the (im)possibility of observing thermal
corrections to Higgs branching ratios at future multi-TeV heavy ion collider experiments~\cite{Berger:2018mtg,Citron:2018lsq,dEnterria:2018bqi}.
As we explain below, $\delta\Gamma_{H}$ can be obtained essentially from combining limiting cases of
several spectral functions whose derivation has been described in detail~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns,Meyer:2010ii,Laine:2010tc}.
We believe this to be known to
a small group of experts in thermal field theory, and the novelty of the present work thus resides mainly in making this
expert knowledge explicit.

For thermal corrections to the Higgs width in a QCD plasma, the branching into final states without color charge
(such as $H\to Z Z\to 4\, l$) is clearly unimportant. The decay processes relevant for the following are therefore
determined by the electroweak interaction of the Higgs to quarks,
\begin{equation}
	\label{eq1}
\mathcal{L}_{Hq}=- S \frac{H}{v}\, ,\qquad S\equiv m_q\bar\psi_q\psi_q\, ,
\end{equation}
and by the corresponding coupling of the Higgs to gluons.
Here, $v\cong 246$ GeV denotes the Higgs vacuum expectation value.
The dominant contribution to $H \to g g$  proceeds
via a top quark loop. We work in the limit $m_t \gg M_H$ in which this interaction is given by the Higgs effective field theory
Lagrangian~\cite{Inami:1982xt}
\begin{eqnarray}
	\label{eq2}
	\mathcal{L}^\mathrm{eff}_{Hg} &=& -C_{Hg}\frac{H}{v}\mathcal{O}_{Hg}\, ,\\
	\mathcal{O}_{Hg} &\equiv& -\frac{1}{4}F^a_{\mu\nu}F^{a\,\mu\nu}\, ,\\
	C_{Hg}&=& \frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{3\pi}+\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2)\, .
\end{eqnarray}

For a particle that does not carry charges of the plasma and that couples to currents $J$, the decay widths can be expressed in terms of the
corresponding spectral functions
\begin{equation}
\label{eq3}
\rho_J(K)\equiv \int d^4x\, e^{i K\cdot X}\,\langle[J(X),J(0)]\rangle\, ,
\end{equation}
where $K_\mu = (k_0, \vec{k})$ in the rest frame of the QCD plasma. The metric is mostly minus.
In particular, the partial decay widths of the Higgs boson relevant for our study are given by
\begin{eqnarray}
	\label{eq4}
		\Gamma_{H\to q\bar q}&=&\frac{1}{v^2}\frac{1}{2k^0}\rho_{S}(K)\, , \\
	\label{eq5}
		\Gamma_{H\to gg}&=& \frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}{(3\pi)^2v^2}\frac{1}{2k^0}\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)\, ,
\end{eqnarray}
where $\textstyle\frac{1}{2k_0}$ is the usual kinematical flux factor and the factors $\textstyle\frac{1}{v^2}$,
$\textstyle\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}{(3\pi)^2\, v^2}$ denote the squares of the couplings of the Higgs boson to the corresponding currents.
The widths (\ref{eq4}), (\ref{eq5}) are thus first order in the electroweak couplings, but the spectral functions $\rho_J$ are all
orders in $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$.

The calculation of thermal corrections to $\Gamma_{H\to q\bar q}$, $\Gamma_{H\to gg}$ then amounts to determining thermal
corrections $\delta \rho_{S}(K)$ and $\delta\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)$ to the vacuum spectral functions
$\rho_{S}^\mathrm{vac}(K^2)$ and $\rho^\mathrm{vac}_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K^2)$. Lorentz invariance of the vacuum implies
that the latter can depend only on the scalar $K^2 = K_\mu\, K^\mu$. In contrast, any finite temperature system singles out a
rest frame, and the thermal corrections $\delta \rho_{S}$ and $\delta\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}$ can therefore depend separately on
$k_0$ and $k \equiv \vert \vec{k}\vert$. In the present paper, we focus on the case of a Higgs boson at rest in the plasma,
except for a short discussion of boosted Higgs bosons in section~\ref{sec2.3}.

In a QCD plasma, the vacuum branchings $H\to g\, g$ and $H\to q\, \bar{q}$  are modified already to zeroth order in $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$, since
emission of each final state gluon or final state quark of momentum $k_{g/q}$ is enhanced by a thermal Bose-Einstein
$\left( 1 + f_B(k_g)\right)$ or suppressed by a Fermi-Dirac $\left( 1 - f_F(k_q)\right)$ distribution factor, respectively. However, the partons
emerging from this two-body decay carry momenta $k_{q/g} = \textstyle\frac{M_H}{2}$ much above the thermal scale.
As a consequence, the effects of stimulated emission for the decay into gluons and of Pauli-blocking for the decay into quarks
are negligible. To zeroth order in $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$,
thermal corrections to $\Gamma_{H\to gg}$ and $\Gamma_{H\to q\bar q}$ are kinematically suppressed by multiplicative factors
$\exp\left[-\textstyle\frac{k_{g/q}}{T}\right] = \exp\left[-\textstyle\frac{M_H}{2T}\right]$.

 Processes to first order in $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$ open up a region of phase space in which thermal corrections are not suppressed in this way.
Firstly, to $O(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})$, there are {\it real emission contributions}, such as $H\to g\, g\, g$ or $H\to q\, \bar{q}\, g$. In these
 three-body decays, one of the three final
state partons can carry a momentum $k_{g/q} \lesssim T$, for which effects of stimulated gluon emission
$\propto \left( 1 + f_B(k_g)\right)$ and Pauli-blocked quark emission $\propto \left( 1 - f_F(k_q)\right)$ are not suppressed.
Secondly, there are {\it real absorption contributions} in which quarks and gluons from the QCD plasma interact with the vacuum
branching process, such as $g\, H\to g\, g$, $g\, H\to q\, \bar{q}$, $q\, H\to q\, g$ or $\bar{q}\, H\to g\, \bar{q}$. Thirdly,
there are thermal {\it virtual contribution} that arise from branching processes which interact on the
amplitude level to $O(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})$ with partons in the medium, and which interfere with the vacuum contribution in the
complex conjugate amplitude. In general, calculations of thermal widths to $O(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})$
amount to determining these three classes of contributions consistently in finite temperature field theory.
There are two conceptually different approaches for achieving this:

\begin{enumerate}
	\item {\it Explicit perturbative calculation of $\delta\Gamma$ in finite temperature QCD.}\\
	This standard approach is well documented e.g. for calculations of the thermal production
	of vector bosons~\cite{Baier:1988xv,Altherr:1989jc,Altherr:1988bg,Gabellini:1989yk,Kapusta:2000ct,Majumder:2001iy}.
	It is typically formulated in terms of
	the two-loop self-energy correction of the propagator of the particle
	excitation in whose width one is interested.
	By the optical theorem, the imaginary part of this self energy corresponds to a sum over different cut contributions that can be
	identified with the three above-mentioned classes of thermal corrections, namely real emission, real absorption and virtual
	correction. In practice, all three classes of thermal corrections yield infrared singular expressions, while thermal
	corrections to the sum of the three contributions are infrared and collinear safe observables~\cite{Bellac:2011kqa}.
	This makes explicit perturbative calculations of $\delta \Gamma$ relatively complex and lengthy.
	\item {\it Calculating $\delta\Gamma$ via the operator product expansion (OPE) of the relevant spectral functions.}\\
	In general, the OPE relies on a systematic separation of infrared and ultraviolet contributions. As first pointed out
	by Caron-Huot~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}, this approach allows one to determine thermal
	corrections to spectral functions in the high-energy time-like region $k_0 \gg T$. For the thermal width of particles
	whose mass is parametrically larger than the plasma temperature, this allows for a much simplified calculation.
\end{enumerate}

A particularly simple and instructive example is the case of a heavy fermion decaying to a lighter fermion and a scalar in a QED plasma.
This process was studied in an explicit perturbative calculation in Ref.~\cite{Czarnecki:2011mr}, presenting explicit IR-regulated results for the real emission, real absorption
and virtual correction contributions, and demonstrating the IR-finiteness of the physical width in detail. The same process was studied in Ref.~\cite{Beneke:2016ghp} with
OPE techniques. (As the decaying particle in this toy model is charged under the gauge group, the techniques of Ref.~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns} do not apply directly to this case.)

OPE techniques have been applied also to study the thermal corrections to the decay width of hypothetical heavy right-handed neutrinos in~\cite{Laine:2011pq}
(see also~\cite{Salvio:2011sf} for the same calculation with the explicit method). Furthermore, in the case of heavy right-handed neutrinos an Effective Field Theory approach has been introduced
in~\cite{Biondini:2013xua}, where the $M\gg T$ expansion is introduced at the Lagrangian level, making the separation of IR and UV extremely transparent (see~\cite{Biondini:2017rpb} for a review of these calculations in their physical context).

In the present work, we utilize the OPE approach of Ref.~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}  to arrive at an expression for the thermal width of the Higgs boson.
In appendix~\ref{appa}, we comment shortly on how these results are connected to results obtained from an explicit perturbative calculation.
In appendix~\ref{appb}, we also summarize results for the thermal width of the $Z$-boson.

\section{Higgs branching ratios from known spectral functions of $T^{\mu\nu}$ }

For the reader who wants to get to the final result for the thermal width $\delta \Gamma_H$ without spending
too much time on technical details, we compile in this section what is known about the spectral functions
$\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)$ and $\rho_{S}(K)$ in the asymptotic limit of large $K^2$, and we insert this
information for $K^2 = M_H^2$ into eqs.~(\ref{eq4}) and (\ref{eq5}) to obtain $\delta \Gamma_H$.
 A more thorough discussion of the theoretical basis of this schematic derivation
  is deferred to the subsequent section.

\subsection{$H\to g\, g$}

To determine $\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)$, we exploit that the operator $\mathcal{O}_{Hg}$ appears in the trace of
the QCD energy-momentum tensor~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}
\begin{equation}
T^{\mu}_{\, \, \mu} = \frac{-b_0\, \alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{2\pi} \mathcal{O}_{Hg} + \hbox{[fermionic terms]}\, ,
\label{eq6}
\end{equation}
where $b_0= (\frac{11}{3}C_A {-} \frac43n_fT_F)$ is the leading coefficient of the $\beta$-function,
with $C_A=N_c=3$ the quadratic Casimir of the adjoint
representation  and $T_F=\frac12$.
The spectral function of the trace anomaly (\ref{eq6}) is the spectral function $\rho_\zeta$ of the bulk viscous channel of $T^{\mu\nu}$.
In general, due to the fermionic mass contributions, $\rho_\zeta$ differs from $\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}$ not only by a trivial
prefactor $\textstyle \frac{b_0^2\, \alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}{(2\pi)^2}$, but also by additional fermionic terms.
However, in the OPE of  $\rho_\zeta$, these fermionic terms are suppressed by
additional powers of $m_q^2/K^2$ which render them negligible for our problem.
From the result for  $\rho_{\zeta}^\mathrm{vac}(K^2)$ in Ref.~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}, one thus finds
\begin{eqnarray}
	\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}^\mathrm{vac}(K^2) &=& \frac{(2\pi)^2}{b_0^2\, \alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}\,
	\left( \rho_{\zeta}^\mathrm{vac}(K^2) + \mathcal{O}\left(\frac{m_q^2}{K^2}\right) \right) \nonumber \\
	&=& \frac{ d_A (K^2)^2}{32 \pi}+\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})+ \mathcal{O}\left(\frac{m_q^2}{K^2}\right)\, ,
	\label{eq7}
\end{eqnarray}
where $d_A=N_c^2-1$ is the dimension of the adjoint representation.

The leading (dimension-four) thermal correction to $\rho_{\zeta}$ was derived in the same Ref.~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}
up to an unknown coefficient in front of the trace anomaly that has been determined in Ref.~\cite{Meyer:2010ii,Laine:2010tc}.
Accounting again for the fact that
$\delta\rho_{\zeta}(K)$ and $\delta\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)$ differ by the prefactor $\textstyle \frac{b_0^2\, \alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}{(2\pi)^2}$,
these results translate into
\begin{eqnarray}
	\delta \rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)  &=&
	  \frac{ 2\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{3} \frac{K_\mu K_\nu}{K^2}
	      \left[2C_F T^{\mu\nu}_f -
	  (n_f T_F{+}\frac32 b_0) T^{\mu\nu}_g \right] \nonumber \\
	  &&	- \pi T^\mu{}_\mu\, ,
	  \label{eq8}
\end{eqnarray}
where $T^{\mu\nu}_g$ and $T^{\mu\nu}_f$  denote the traceless parts of the gluonic and fermionic contributions to $T^{\mu\nu}$,
respectively, and $C_F=(N_c^2-1)/(2N_c)$ is the quadratic Casimir of the fundamental
representation.  The temperature dependence of $\delta \rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}(K)$ thus enters via the temperature dependence of the
energy-momentum tensor.

\subsubsection{Vacuum width from spectral function}
\label{sec2.1.1}
Before turning to a discussion of the thermal corrections, we check the consistency of our starting point by determining
the corresponding partial width in vacuum. Plugging eq.~\eqref{eq7} into \eqref{eq5}, we find
\begin{equation}
		\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}
		=\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2M_H^3}{72\pi^3 v^2}+\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^3)\, ,
		\label{eq9}
\end{equation}
which agrees with the expression in the literature~\cite{Inami:1982xt}.

This argument can be extended to next-to-leading order (NLO).
Higher order corrections to the Wilson coefficient $C_{Hg}$ can be found in
\cite{Inami:1982xt,Kramer:1996iq,Chetyrkin:1997un,Steinhauser:2002rq,Grigo:2014jma}

\begin{equation}
	C_{Hg}=\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{3\pi} \Bigg\lbrace 1 + \left(\frac{5}{4}C_A - \frac{3}{4}C_F \right)\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{\pi}  \Bigg\rbrace\, .
		\label{eq10}
\end{equation}
The vacuum pure glue part of the bulk channel spectral function $\rho_\zeta$
at NLO can be found e.g. in Ref.~\cite{Laine:2011xm}. Multiplying this with the prefactor $\textstyle \frac{b_0^2\, \alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2}{(2\pi)^2}$
of eq.~(\ref{eq6}) yields
\begin{equation}
	\rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}^\mathrm{vac, NLO}(K^2) = \rho_{\mathcal{O}_{Hg}}^\mathrm{vac}(K^2)
		\left(1 + \frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}} N_c}{4\pi}\frac{73}{3} \right)\, .
		\label{eq11}
\end{equation}
Combining these expressions, one finds for the NLO correction to $ \Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}$
 \begin{eqnarray}
  &&\!\!\! \Gamma^\mathrm{vac, NLO}_{H\to gg(g)\, , H\to gq\bar{q}}    \label{eq12} \\
  &&\!\!\!=    \Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}
  \Bigg\lbrace  1 + \frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{4\pi}  \left( 2 \left( 5\, N_c - 3\, C_F \right) +  N_c \frac{73}{3}  \right)  \Bigg\rbrace\, .  \nonumber
 \end{eqnarray}
 %
 This is consistent with the NLO correction factor for the pure glue part, $\left( 1 + \textstyle\frac{95}{4} \textstyle\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{\pi} \right)$~\cite{Inami:1982xt,Djouadi:1991tka}.
 Eq.~\eqref{eq11} contains to $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})$ also a logarithmic term that can be traced back to the RG evolution of the LO result and that is consistent with ~\cite{Inami:1982xt,Djouadi:1991tka}.
 Indeed, we are following here essentially the logic of Ref.~\cite{Inami:1982xt}. Our reason for repeating this result is that we take in the following thermal corrections to
 (\ref{eq11}) from published results in which also the vacuum contribution to the spectral function is given. The rederivation of (\ref{eq9}) and  (\ref{eq12}) thus serves as  a check
 that these thermal corrections are used with proper normalization.

\subsubsection{Thermal corrections to $H\to g g$}

Paralleling the discussion in section~\ref{sec2.1.1},
we obtain the thermal correction to $\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}$
from the thermal contribution to the quark and gluon condensates that appear in the OPE of the bulk channel
spectral function eq.~(\ref{eq8}),
\begin{eqnarray}
		\delta\Gamma_{H\to gg} &=& \frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^3}{81\pi^2v^2k^0} \frac{3k_0^2+k^2}{M_H^2}
	      \left[2C_F \bigg(\sum_{q\in udsc}\langle T^{00}_{fq}\rangle \bigg) \right. \nonumber \\
	&& \left.	      -
	  \bigg( \frac{11}{2}C_A - n_f T_F \bigg)\langle  T^{00}_g\rangle  \right]+\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^4)\, .
	  \label{eq13}
\end{eqnarray}
Here, we have used that in an isotropic medium, the traceless operators $T^{\mu\nu}_{f,g}$ satisfy
$T^{ij}_{f,g} = \textstyle\frac{1}{3} \delta^{ij}\, T^{00}_{f,g}$ and $T^{oj}_{f,g} = 0$. The resulting prefactor
$(3k_0^2+k^2)$ breaks Lorentz invariance since the QCD plasma specifies a thermal rest frame.

In close analogy to the NLO vacuum correction (\ref{eq12}) to $ \Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}$, also the
$\mathcal{O}(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}})$ thermal correction $\delta\Gamma_{H\to gg}$ contains contributions with a $gq\bar{q}$-vertex.
On the one hand, these are the processes
$gH\to q\bar q$ and $H\to gq\bar q$ with a thermal gluon and a hard quark-antiquark pair, which give
rise to the term $\propto  n_f T_F \langle  T^{00}_g\rangle$ in (\ref{eq13}). On the other hand, there are the processes
$q H\to q g$ and $H\to g q\bar q$ with a thermal quark which contribute to the term proportional to
$\langle T^{00}_{fq}\rangle$. In addition, the virtual quark-loop correction to $H\to gg$ is also proportional to
$\langle T^{00}_{fq}\rangle$.

The physical picture behind obtaining (\ref{eq13}) from the trivial insertion of (\ref{eq8}) into (\ref{eq5})
is that the hierarchy $M_H \gg T$
allows for a separation of short and long distance physics. The Higgs gluon coupling $C_{Hg}$
describes physics which takes place on length and time scales much shorter than $1/T$
and which is therefore not affected by the presence of the QCD plasma. The
long-distance physics is given by the OPE of the bulk channel spectral function
whose temperature dependence is parametrized by the thermal expectation values of the
quark and gluon condensates, $\langle T^{00}_{fq}\rangle$ and  $\langle  T^{00}_g\rangle $, respectively.
To leading order in $\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}$, these are given by the free (Stefan-Boltzmann) limits
\begin{eqnarray}
	\langle  T^{00}_g\rangle &=& \frac{\pi^2 T^4}{15} d_A\, , \label{eq14}\\
	\langle  T^{00}_{fq}\rangle \Big\vert_{m_q=0} &=& \frac{7 \pi^2 T^4}{60} d_F\, ,
	\label{eq15}
\end{eqnarray}
where $d_A = N_c^2 - 1$ and $d_F=N_c$ are the dimensions of the adjoint and the fundamental representation, respectively.
If a quark has mass $m_q\lesssim T$ one would need the explicit evaluation of the massive Stefan-Boltzmann integral instead of (\ref{eq15}),
while for $m_b \gg T$, $\langle T^{00}_{fb} \rangle$ is exponentially suppressed. The sum $\sum_{q\in udsc}$ in (\ref{eq13}) thus goes over the
flavors that can be thermally excited. To arrive at a more compact expression, one may approximate this sum by
an effective number  $n_f^T$ of approximately massless flavors, using $3<n_f^T<4$
for temperatures well above the strange quark mass and well below the bottom charm mass.
For the number of flavors entering the leading coefficient $b_0$ of the $\beta$-function, we use
$n_f T_F = \textstyle\frac{5}{2}$ in (\ref{eq13}).
  With this input, we obtain
\begin{eqnarray}
		&&\delta\Gamma_{H\to gg} = - \Gamma_{H\to gg}^\mathrm{vac} \alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \frac{T^4}{M_H^4} \frac{112\, \pi^3}{45}
						\left(8-n_f^T\right)\, , \nonumber \\
						&& \qquad  \hbox{for $H$-decay in the plasma rest frame}\, .
	  \label{eq16}
\end{eqnarray}

\subsection{$H\to \bar{q}\, q$}
The decay of the Higgs boson into a $q\bar{q}$ pair proceeds via coupling to the scalar operator $S$.
For $m_q\ll M_H$, the leading  order
vacuum contribution to the corresponding spectral function $\rho_S$ is
\begin{equation}
	\rho^\mathrm{vac}_{S}(K^2)=\frac{d_Fn_f m_q^2 K^2}{4\pi}\, ,
	\label{eq17}
\end{equation}
and its leading
(dimension-four) thermal correction reads~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}
\begin{eqnarray}
	\delta \rho_S(K) &=&
	  \frac{8\alpha_{\mathrm{s}} m_q^2}{3K^2} \frac{K_\mu K_\nu}{K^2}
	      \left[\frac{13}{2}C_F T^{\mu\nu}_f - n_fT_F T^{\mu\nu}_g \right] \nonumber \\
	      &&	      -\frac{9\alpha_{\mathrm{s}} m_q^2C_F}{K^2}\, S\, .
	      \label{eq18}
\end{eqnarray}
Inserting the vacuum contribution  (\ref{eq17})  into (\ref{eq4}), we reproduce for each mass state ($n_f = 1$) the
LO vacuum branching ratio
\begin{equation}
	\label{eq19}
		\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to q\bar q}
		=  \frac{d_F m_q^2 M_H}{8\pi v^2},
\end{equation}
which agrees with the literature~\cite{Djouadi:2005gi}.
(Full accounting of the massive kinematics amounts to a multiplicative factor $(1-4m_q^2/M_H^2)^{3/2}$.)

Having checked in this way the consistency of the normalization of $\rho_S$ and (\ref{eq4}), one can proceed to
determining in the same way the thermal correction to $\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to q\bar q}$ from $\delta \rho_S(K)$
in eq.~(\ref{eq18}).  In general, the evaluation of the operator (\ref{eq18}) in the QCD plasma requires the LO thermal
(Stefan-Boltzmann) expectation value of the chiral condensate
\begin{equation}
	\langle S \rangle=4 d_F m_q^2 \int\frac{d^3p}{(2\pi)^3} \frac{ n_F(E_p)}{E_p}\, ,
	\label{eq20}
\end{equation}
which becomes
$\textstyle\frac{1}{6} d_F m_q^2 T^2$ for $m_q\ll T$.
However, for the thermal corrections to $H\to b\bar{b}$ at temperature $T\ll m_b$,
the contributions $\langle S \rangle$ and $\langle T^{00}_f \rangle$ in (\ref{eq18}) are
exponentially suppressed by the quark mass, and
\begin{equation}
	\label{eq21}
		\delta\Gamma_{H\to b\bar b}=-\frac{4\alsT_F m_b^2}{v^2k_0}\frac{3k_0^2+k^2}{9M_H^4}
		 \langle T^{00}_g\rangle + \dots,
\end{equation}
where the dots stand for $ \mathcal{O}\left(\exp\left[ -m_b/T\right]\right)$ terms.  Inserting the LO expression (\ref{eq14}) for the gluon condensate, we find (for $T\ll m_b$)
\begin{eqnarray}
		&&\delta\Gamma_{H\to b\bar{b}}= - \Gamma_{H\to b\bar{b}}^\mathrm{vac} \alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \frac{T^4}{M_H^4} \frac{128\, \pi^3}{135} \, , \nonumber \\
			&& \qquad	 \hbox{for $H$-decay in the plasma rest frame}\, .
	  \label{eq22}
\end{eqnarray}
For temperatures $T \gtrsim \mathcal{O}(m_b)$ or for the calculation of the partial thermal width into lighter quarks,
the contributions $\langle S \rangle$ and $\langle T^{00}_f \rangle$
in (\ref{eq18}) need to be included.
In general, the thermal corrections stemming from the coupling to lighter quarks are reduced by a factor
$m_q^2/m_b^2$ compared to (\ref{eq22}). For all partial decay widths into $q\bar{q}$-pairs, the thermal correction is an $\mathcal{O}\left(\alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \textstyle\frac{T^4}{M_H^4} \right)$
correction to the vacuum width.

\subsection{Thermal corrections to spectral functions: range of validity}
\label{sec2.3}
Here, we shortly recall the derivation of thermal corrections to $\rho_J(K)$ in the OPE approach~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}, and we comment on its range of validity.
The starting point is the Euclidean current-current correlator $G_E(q) = \int d^4x\, e^{-iq.x} \langle J(x)\, J(0)\rangle$, where we set $q = (0,0,0,q_E)$ for simplicity.
The dispersion relation $G_E(q_E) = P(q_E) + \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} \textstyle\frac{d\omega}{2\pi (\omega-iq_E)} \rho_J(\omega)$
relates $G_E$ to the spectral function $\rho_J$, with $P(q_E) $ a polynomial in $q_E$.  As explained in detail in Ref.~\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns}, this dispersion relation
implies that the asymptotic expansion of $\rho_J(K)$
for large time-like $K$ can be obtained from matching term-by-term to the
operator product expansion of $G_E(q_E)$
for large space-like $q_E$,
\begin{eqnarray}
	&&G_E(q_E) \sim \sum_n \langle \mathcal{O}_n\rangle \frac{c_n}{q_E^{d_n}} \nonumber \\
		&&  \Longleftrightarrow \nonumber \\
	&& \rho_J(k_0)\sim \sum_n \langle \mathcal{O}_n\rangle 2 {\rm Im}\left[ \frac{c_n}{(-i k_0)^{d_n}} \right]\, .
	\label{eq23}
\end{eqnarray}
In practice, one proceeds as follows:
First, expand the operator product $J\, J$ in $G_E(q)$ up to order $1/q^2$ in the Euclidean four-momentum squared.  This results in explicit expressions such as
$G^\zeta_E(q) \sim 4\, b_0^2\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}^2 \left( \textstyle\frac{q_\mu q_\nu}{q^2} \langle T_g^{\mu\nu}  \rangle + \textstyle\frac{1}{g^2} \langle \mathcal{O}_{Hg} \rangle \right)$
for the bulk viscous channel.  Then take into account that the local operators in this expansion are scale dependent, for instance,
$T_g^{\mu\nu}(q_E) \sim T_g^{\mu\nu}(\mu_0) +
\textstyle\frac{\alpha_{\mathrm{s}}}{3\pi} \log\left[\textstyle\frac{\mu_0^2}{q_E^2} \right] \left(n_fT_F T_g^{\mu\nu}(\mu_0) - 2n_f T_f^{\mu\nu}(\mu_0) \right)$.
This renormalization group flow is of central importance, since the branch cuts of the analytically continued logarithms
$\log\left[\textstyle\frac{\mu_0^2}{(-i K)^2} \right]$ contribute to ${\rm Im}G_E(-i K)$ and thus to $\rho_J$ at large time-like momenta.
Without this RG flow, the expansion of $G_E(q)$ would contain only powers of the type $1/q^n$ times local operators. The analytic continuation
of these $1/q^n$-terms to Minkowksi space can only generate discontinuities on the light cone. The only contribution to $\rho_J(K)$ at large time-like $K$
thus comes from these analytically continued logarithms.

The OPE of $G_E$ in (\ref{eq23}) implements a physical scale separation. For a highly energetic, short-distance probe that tests distances of size $1/q_E$  much
smaller than any other scale in the problem, $1/q_E \ll 1/T$, eq.~(\ref{eq23}) systematically expands in powers of that small scale times local operators. For the corresponding
spectral function $\rho_J(K)$ to be valid, it is thus a necessary condition that
\begin{equation}
	K^2 = 4 k^+\, k^- = M^2 \gg T^2\, ,
	\label{eq24}
\end{equation}
where we have introduced the light-cone momenta $k^+ = \textstyle\frac{1}{2} \left( k_0 + k\right)$, $k^- = \textstyle\frac{1}{2} \left( k_0 - k\right)$.
In a thermal medium and for a very massive probe, $k^+ \gg T$ is always satisfied. However, to a boosted probe, the medium appears Lorentz-contracted, and the
scale separation between the long-distance physics of the medium and the short-distance physics of the probe becomes questionable when the coherence length $\sim 1/k^-$
of the probe becomes comparable to the medium scale $1/T$. One should therefore distinguish the following kinematic regimes:
\begin{enumerate}
	\item $k^- \gg T$:  $\rho_J$ can be determined from OPE.
	\item $k^- \sim T$: $\rho_J(K)$ cannot be determined from OPE, but unresummed perturbative techniques such as those used in Ref.~\cite{Laine:2011xm,Laine:2013vpa,Laine:2013lka,Laine:2013vma} apply  for `hard' momenta $k^- \sim \mathcal{O}(T)$.
	\item $k^- \ll T$: Resummed finite temperature perturbation theory or non-perturbative methods would be needed to determine $\rho_J(K)$ in this regime,
	as in
\cite{Aurenche:2002wq,Ghisoiu:2014mha,Ghiglieri:2014kma}.

\end{enumerate}
For the Higgs boson decay discussed in this section, $k^- \gg T$ applies as long as the three-momentum $k$ in the medium satisfies $k \ll \textstyle\frac{M_H^2}{4\, T}$.
For temperature $T\leq 1$ GeV that may be reached in heavy ion collisions at present or future colliders, the OPE and the results for the partial thermal widths
(\ref{eq13}) and (\ref{eq21}) of the Higgs boson that we derived from it are thus valid over a transverse momentum range that extends to multiples of the Higgs mass.
Over this range of validity of the OPE, thermal corrections to $\Gamma_H$ are seen to increase by a factor $\textstyle\frac{3k_0^2 + k^2}{3 M_H^2}$ with the Higgs three-momentum $k$.
Finally, we note that the unresummed perturbative calculations of
spectral functions of the kind being considered here for
$M\gtrsim T$ find that the OPE regime sets in when $M$ is approximately
an order of magnitude larger than $T$ \cite{Laine:2011xm,Laine:2013vpa,Laine:2013lka,Laine:2013vma}. As $M_H$
is two orders of magnitude larger than the temperatures of QCD plasmas,
the applicability of the OPE expansion is thus certain.

 \section{Conclusions}
 For a Higgs boson at rest in a QGP of temperature $T \ll M_H$, explicit expressions for the thermal corrections to the partial decay widths $\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to gg}$ and
 $\Gamma^\mathrm{vac}_{H\to q\bar{q}}$ are given in eqs. (\ref{eq16}) and (\ref{eq22}). These corrections are $ \mathcal{O}\left( \alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \left( \textstyle\frac{T}{M_H}\right)^4 \right)$ times the vacuum
 branching ratios.

 For a Higgs boson propagating with finite three-momentum $k$ through the QGP, the thermal width increases with $k$ like $\delta \Gamma^{k=0}\times\left(1 + \textstyle\frac{4}{3}  \textstyle\frac{k^2}{M_H^2}\right)$.
 This applies for $k^- = \textstyle\frac{1}{2} \left( k_0 - k\right) \gg T$, a range of validity which includes for temperatures $T< 1$ GeV even moderately relativistic Higgs bosons in the QGP.

 In general, the $ \mathcal{O}\left( \alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \left( \textstyle\frac{T}{M}\right)^4 \right)$
  leading thermal corrections to the decay width of neutral massive particles
	is caused by the
  absence of lower-dimension gauge-invariant local operators in QCD.
	For the thermal width of the Higgs,
 the $T^4$-dependence arises from the Stefan-Boltzmann limits
 of the quark (\ref{eq15}) and gluon (\ref{eq14}) condensates that enter thermal corrections of the spectral functions (\ref{eq8}) and (\ref{eq18}) of the bulk viscous and scalar operator, respectively.
 Similarly, thermal  corrections to the width of the $Z$-boson are $ \mathcal{O}\left( \alpha_{\mathrm{s}} \left( \textstyle\frac{T}{M_Z}\right)^4 \right)$, since the spectral functions of the vector and axial vector currents
 receive the dominant thermal corrections from the same quark and gluon condensates, see Ref.\cite{CaronHuot:2009ns} and Appendix~\ref{appb}.

We note that the leading $T$-dependence can be larger in
theories with lower-dimension gauge-invariant local operators. In the heavy
sterile neutrino case mentioned before, the zero-temperature
decay into a Higgs scalar and a SM lepton receives an $ \mathcal{O}\left( \lambda \left( \textstyle\frac{T}{M}\right)^2 \right)$ correction
 \cite{Salvio:2011sf,Laine:2011pq,Biondini:2013xua}. This is due to
the dimension-two $\phi^\dagger\phi$ condensate of the Higgs field, with
 its  self-coupling $\lambda$.

God Blesses Jacob at Beth–el
1 # Gen 28.11-17. And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth–el, and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother. 2Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments: 3and let us arise, and go up to Beth–el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went. 4And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
5And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob. 6So Jacob came to Luz which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Beth–el, he and all the people that were with him. 7And he built there an altar, and called the place El–beth´–el;#35.7 That is, The God of Beth–el. because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother. 8But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Beth–el under an oak: and the name of it was called Allon–bach´uth.#35.8 That is, The oak of weeping.
9And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Pa´dan–a´ram, and blessed him. 10#Gen 32.28. And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; and he called his name Israel. 11#Gen 17.4-8. And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply: a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins; 12and the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land. 13And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him. 14#Gen 28.18,19. And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon. 15And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Beth–el.
The Death of Rachel
16 # Jer 31.15. And they journeyed from Beth–el; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor. 17And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also. 18And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died,) that she called his name Beno´ni:#35.18 That is, The son of my sorrow. but his father called him Benjamin.#35.18 That is, The son of the right hand. 19And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem. 20And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: that is the pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day. 21And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.
The Sons of Jacob
(1 Chronicles 2.1,2)
22And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and Israel heard it.
Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: 23the sons of Le´ah; Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Is´sachar, and Zeb´ulun: 24the sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin: 25and the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid; Dan, and Naph´tali: 26and the sons of Zilpah, Le´ah's handmaid; Gad, and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Pa´dan–a´ram.
The Death of Isaac
27 # Gen 13.18. And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto the city of Arba, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. 28And the days of Isaac were a hundred and fourscore years. 29And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
1 About this time, God said to Jacob, "Arise and go up to Bethel, and live there, and make an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau."
2 In truth, Jacob, having called together all his house, said: "Cast away the foreign gods that are in your midst and be cleansed, and also change your garments.
3 Arise, and let us go up to Bethel, so that we may make an altar there to God, who heeded me in the day of my tribulation, and who accompanied me on my journey."
4 Therefore, they gave him all the foreign gods which they had, and the earrings which were in their ears. And then he buried them under the terebinth tree, which is beyond the city of Shechem.
5 And when they had set out, the terror of God invaded all the surrounding cities, and they dared not pursue them as they withdrew.
6 And so, Jacob arrived at Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, also named Bethel: he and all the people with him.
7 And he built an altar there, and he called the name of that place, 'House of God.' For there God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.
8 About the same time, Deborah, the nurse of Rebekah, died, and she was buried at the base of Bethel, under an oak tree. And the name of that place was called, 'Oak of Weeping.'
9 Then God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,
10 saying: "You will no longer be called Jacob, for your name shall be Israel." And he called him Israel,
11 and he said to him: "I am Almighty God: increase and multiply. Tribes and peoples of nations will be from you, and kings will go forth from your loins.
12 And the land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and to your offspring after you."
13 And he withdrew from him.
14 In truth, he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him, pouring out libations over it, and pouring oil,
15 and he called the name of that place, 'Bethel.'
16 Then, departing from there, he arrived in springtime at the land that leads to Ephrath. And there, when Rachel was giving birth,
17 because it was a difficult birth, she began to be in danger. And the midwife said to her, "Do not be afraid, for you will have this son also."
18 Then, when her life was departing because of the pain, and death was now imminent, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain. Yet truly, his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.
19 And so Rachel died, and she was buried in the way that leads to Ephrath: this place is Bethlehem.
20 And Jacob erected a monument over her sepulcher. This is the monument to Rachel's tomb, even to the present day.
21 Departing from there, he pitched his tent beyond the Tower of the Flock.
22 And when he was living in that region, Reuben went out, and he slept with Bilhah the concubine of his father, which was not such a small matter as to be hidden from him. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 The sons of Bilhah, handmaid of Rachel: Dan and Naphtali.
26 The sons of Zilpah, handmaid of Leah: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria.
27 And then he went to his father Isaac in Mamre, the city of Arba: this place is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
28 And the days of Isaac were completed: one hundred and eighty years.
29 And being consumed by old age, he died. And he was placed with his people, being old and full of days. And his sons, Esau and Jacob, buried him.

Director John August Clairifies the Bright Side of Illegal Torrent Downloads
Posted on Sunday, January 27th, 2008 by Hunter Stephenson
It amazes and terrifies me that so few filmmakers are as open, interested and engaged in the torrent phenomena as director John August. You might remember that earlier this month we reported on August's curious announcement to fans that his indie film (and /Film favorite), The Nines, was available for illegal download online via Bit Torrent and sites like Mininova. He seemed to express that he wouldn't hold a grudge if you saw his film that way. Well, August has posted twice more on the topic on his personal blog, and he now attributes a huge surge for The Nines on IMDB's MOVIEmeter (which measures movie search trends) from 1,539 all the way to 11 to its exposure via the Internet's torrents.
You don't see a lot, actually any, directors making the correlation between illegal torrent leaks of their films, their films' popularity and consumer interest, but August has voiced up. And it's clear that August has received a lot of flack for doing so, as he's extended on his prior statements and countered others' directed at him in another blog entry.
I'm not bouncy with joy over my movie getting torrented, but I think it's a stretch to equate unlawful downloading with traditional theft. As many commenters have pointed out, The Nines isn't available in any legal form in many countries around the world, nor will it be in any foreseeable time frame. So I have a hard time arguing that a reader in Germany should pay for the movie when there's no way he could.
August goes on to say that he has far less tolerance for viewers who download a film that is openly available to them, be it on DVD or theatrically, but even then, he seems to think that downloading his film is less harmful than buying a bootleg of it on the streets of New York, referring to the latter as "organized crime" and torrent sites as merely "far less noble." Moreover, he says that Hollywood should lay off the downloaders and lay on an innovative solution.
I'd steer the legal machinery towards stopping the true black market – counterfeit discs and camcorder specials – and spend more time coming up with legitimate, convenient alternatives to the torrents, so that's it's not any more difficult to find and download a movie legally. Apple's new rental deal with the studios sounds promising. That and a dozen other efforts could make the market competitive, which will be better for everyone.
But where August takes a next step in becoming a unique voice on this subject is with the following statement…
One of the things I hope to do with The Nines – sometime after the writers' strike, when I can call Sony again – is work with them to release a low-res version of all the source material for The Nines, so budding filmmakers can try their hand at cutting (and re-cutting) a real feature. So I'm watching this first wave of torrents carefully, hoping the people who are downloading The Nines are doing it because they love movies, and not because they want to screw over some mythical The Man. Because to a very large degree, I am The Man in this case.
Yes! This is the kind of forward-thinking the industry needs and props to August for doing it for them. I cannot express enough how frustrated I am watching Hollywood slowly but surely follow the same "all defense all the time" path as the music industry when it comes to ignoring downloading as the future (in favor of Blue Ray), going after torrent communities and prosecuting downloaders, and practicing what basically equates to an erred philosophy on human beings' relationship and instincts in regards to sharing information.
The fact that 99 percent of all moviegoers around the world were put in the position of waiting to see The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford, an Oscar-caliber film barely released theatrically in America last September, until it arrived on DVD five or more months (or years) later, or illegally downloading a pristine DVD screener a month ago, burning it to a DVD-R, and watching it in their home with friends or loved ones is preposterous. I have a separate post about this in the works, but I can't help but notice how many more comments on /Film and other sites are now referring to a combination of smaller, less intriguing and under-distributed movies as "[illegal] download only" and "maybe I'll download it to see what the fuss is about." And it's not just the "nerds, criminals, derelicts and college students" as the music industry used to label those who first adopted Napster.
As for whether illegal torrents can actually make films more popular, to me this is a no-brainer. Yes. They Can. In a global marketplace, we should all be able to view movies on demand via the Internet at the same time. And more and more, we can, except that it's not Hollywood and the big corporations that are promoting, initiating, investing, improving and expanding this means of populist, and incredibly lucrative, distribution. It's the people, whatever you think of "the people." You can go the Daniel Plainview these people route if you want, but I'm leaving that mindset to the antiquated oil set.
Here is the aforementioned IMBD MOVIEmeter for The Nines. August attributes the huge surge in January in terms of movie searches to the film's leak on torrents this month.
John August Doesn't Mind If You Watch His Film Illegally
Posted on Tuesday, January 15th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta
The Nines was one of the best films of last year, although, chances are you never saw it. I think John August's directorial debut didn't get much further than a couple screens, which is a crying shame if you ask me. Thankfully the film is hitting DVD store shelves later this month. I highly recommend it.
But in a highly strange move, screenwriter turned director and self professed tech geek, August has announced to his fans that The Nines is now available illegally on Bit Torrent.
"You can loan a DVD, without passing along that troubling knowledge that you've done something illicit," August writes, adding "But if these reasons and/or your conscience doesn't persuade you, it's not hard to find The Nines online. And won't think less of you. Probably."
Wow. But I want to support this film with my money, so I'll be putting down the cash on January 29th. I recommend you do the same. But what does my moral opinion matter when the filmmaker is telling you that he doesn't care as long as you check out his movie.
Posters: Get Smart, Sarah Connor Chronicles, The Nines, Rambo
Posted on Thursday, November 15th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
While I was in New Mexico, I missed out on a couple movie poster premiere. So let's make up for lost time, and take a look at a few of them. First up is the teaser poster via cinematical for Get Smart starring Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway. I'm really looking forward to this one, being a big fan of the Mel Brooks series as a kid. Also the footage shown at Comic Con showed major promise.

When Clerks 2 was getting ready for release, Kevin Smith had a great idea to release an audio commentary track for the film a couple weeks after the film had hit theaters. The idea was to encourage people to go back and pay for the movie again, and to listen to the film commentary on their iPod. I don't remember exactly what happened, but if I remember correctly, the theater owners complained about people may be laughing at parts during the movie that shouldn't have laughs and that would be distracting to others in the theater. It was a great idea though, although I can see that complaint, especially considering how funny some of Smith's commentary tracks can get.
John August has taken that idea and run with it. Not only has he announced he's releasing the commentary track for The Nines on MP3, but he's already posted it. I guess it's easier to get something like this through on a smaller limited release. Also, I'm sure August's track is probably more informative than funny, and would not result in such distractions mentioned above. And The Nines is the perfect film for this experiment because it offers a complex mystery which people may want to explore a second time with a guide.
"In the age of iPods, there's really no reason why audio commentary has to be relegated to DVD. That's why Ryan Reynolds and I recorded one last week for The Nines which is now yours to download."

Nine Minutes of John August's The Nines
Posted on Tuesday, August 14th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
Ever since I first saw John August's directorial debut The Nines earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival, I've wondered how they would market this film. I absolutely loved it, yet can't even explain the plot. It's a LOST-style mystery infused in a Go-style dialogue and reality. Three stories with the same actors. I am always hesitant to reveal too much, because going in clueless is part of the fun. At the same time I'm hesitant to recommend the film to anyone because I could also understand how such a film could irritate certain types of people.
The people at Newmarket Films have decided to release the first 9 minutes of the movie online. I wish they cut out the intro and allowed the clip to extend to the mystery which is revealed shortly after (at least by my memory). I think if you left the moviegoing public with the question "What is the Nines?" then most would be forced to buy a ticket and find out. But the first nine minutes will give you a good indication of the playful nature of the film, the actors involved, and the pop-culture infused dialogue which has become August's trademark. Again, I loved this film, and may-be you will too. It hits theaters in LA and New York on August 31st, and will hopefully expand based on audience response. Check out the clip after the jump.
John August's The Nines Movie Poster
Posted on Thursday, August 9th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
JohnAugust and Cinematical have posted the theatrical one-sheet poster for John August's directorial debut The Nines. Guys, this was my favorite movie of Sundance 2007. There isn't an easy way to describe The Nines without ruining much of the plot. The plot summery I've seen floating around the web describes the film:
A troubled actor, a television show runner, and an acclaimed videogame designer find their lives intertwining in mysterious and unsettling ways.
The poster, seen right, features Ryan Reynolds tying (or is he untying?) a green string bracelet on his right wrist. This is something that comes into play late into the film. The tagline reads "You Never Know When Your Number Is Up". It's a cool tagline, and a very cool poster for that matter, but does it really give you any indication of what the movie is about? Or even what the genre is for that matter? "You Never Know When Your Number Is Up" sounds like the tagline for a cheesy direct-to-dvd horror film, but on this poster it seems like something much different. And truth is, this movie works within more than a few genres, which is probably one of the reasons why the film itsn't easily to classify. You can click on the poster image to enlarge.
When I first saw this film in January, I wondered how they would market such a movie. It's so very different from anything on the big screen today. The closest thing I can compare it to is the television show LOST, and even then, that is a far stretch. It begins as a realistic film with a mysterious sci-fi element, and evolves into a multi-part story with a polarizing mind-fuck climax. If you haven't yet seen the trailer, check it out now at this link. But bottom line is – You need to see this movie. I can't recommend it enough.
Must Watch: John August's The Nines Movie Trailer
Posted on Thursday, August 2nd, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
My favorite film from the 2007 Sundance Film Festival is the feature film debut of screenwriter John August (Go, Big Fish). There isn't really any way to describe The Nines without ruining much of the plot. The plot summery I've seen floating around the web describes the film:
The new movie trailer probably reveals too much. What are The Nines? It's a JJ Abrams style mystery/character drama which will have you talking the whole car ride home. Check out the trailer after the jump.
John August Updates The Nines
Posted on Monday, July 23rd, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
Screenwriter turned director John August has posted an update about one of my favorite films from this year's Sundance Film Festival (Review). The Nines was chosen to play the Venice Film Festival as part of Critics' Week, which takes place the first week of September. The film will be released in limited US markets ("New York and Los Angeles and maybe one other city") on August 31st. ("No, I don't know when we'll be playing in Omaha. Or if we'll be playing in Omaha. Ditto for Argentina.") The movie trailer is cut and will be showing up within the next week, likely with he official movie website. The film has not been changed since its Sundance premiere and has been Rated R ("Presumably for language"). The movie will be on 35mm in some theatres, digital in others. I can't wait for others to see this film and be confused and amazed.
The Nines Movie Trailer to be Cut By The Internet?
Posted on Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
When we saw The Nines at Sundance, Uber-screenwriter turned first time director John August made this statement that took me aback. When asked about how he plans to market the film, August revealed his idea to release the complete raw footage from the film along with the DVD release.
"Essentially, you could load it into your Avid or Final Cut system and it would show up neatly divided into bins. From there, you could cut your own version – or better yet, mash in other content to create something unique: The Nines vs. The Grifters, or Donnie Darknines: The Koalapocalypse."
I wasn't quite sure if the idea was insane or genius, but it certainly got me thinking. It's definitely an out-of-the-box idea that deserves more consideration. Now August is planning to use the same idea for the movie's theatrical trailer.
John August's The Nines gets US Distribution, Hopes for Cannes
Posted on Wednesday, April 11th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta
There were 5 movies we really loved at this year's Sundance. One of them was screenwriter John August's directorial debut The Nines. GreeneStreet quickly scooped up the international rights, but we worried that the film might not get distribution in the U.S. because of its unique unconventional narrative. Well good news, Newmarket and Sony have partnered for US distribution (Newmarket will do theatrical, Sony will do home video).
"If you've got a challenging indie with geek appeal, they're your distributor of choice," August wrote in a recent blog post. The Nines is a movie which some people love fanatically, yet leaves other people scratching their heads. Newmarket has a great track record with this kind of film, and won't try to market it as something it's not. They're small, and can give it the kind of steady nurturing it needs."

Does love make sex better?
Many people will argue that having sex and making love are two completely different things. The first involves the physical attractions of two people who might not necessarily be in love and the fulfillment of their needs.The second act entails a more emotional interaction between two people in a relationship, usually. In reality, we could say there is the same word for both, since it's about two people involved in a sexual act that could include feelings of any kind or not.
A recent study by sociologist Matt Swayne, investigated the physical effect love had when people engaged in any sexual act. The results were impressive. 'The benefits of being in love with a sexual partner are more than just emotional. Most of the women in the study said that love made sex physically more pleasurable. Women who loved their sexual partners also said they felt less inhibited and more willing to explore their sexuality.'
A significant number of heterosexual women coming from a wide range of backgrounds and aged between 20 and 68 years old took part in the study and supported the view that love was a necessary aspect that contributing towards maximum satisfaction in both sexual relationships and marriage.
When they were in love, sex was more physically pleasurable; "women said that they connected love with sex and that love actually enhanced the physical experience of sex," Women who loved their sexual partners also said they felt less inhibited and more willing to explore their sexuality" , said Beth Montemurro, associate professor of sociology.
The researchers noted that the women viewed sex as the expression of love and that improved its quality and level of positive experience. They also found that sex was an important part of long lasting, happy marriages and relationships.
Women might be complicated, intriguing, enticing and complex but we enjoy the most natural thing of all – love. To love and be loved and that, in the end, makes everything miles better.

Plans to bring facial recognition to major U.S. airports by 2021 are on a fast flight path, despite concerns about the new technology's readiness. President Trump in 2017 issued an executive order expediting the deployment of biometric verification of the identities of all travelers crossing U.S. borders. It stipulates that facial recognition identification be used in the top 20 U.S. airports for "100 percent of all international passengers," including American citizens, by 2021. The mandate to accelerate the timeline for implementation of a biometric system initially was signed into law by President Obama.
