There would always be a wedding that would be too boring. Nothing is worse than a special event turning extremely awry with food that doesn't seem on par with what you'd expect topped with music that makes it seem that the wedding was not prepared right at all. There's no doubt that as one who's going to get married, you'd want to make sure that your wedding would be able to rise above the occasion and become a unique event across other events and to make that more possible, it is vital that you consider hiring a wedding band or a Disc Jockey more known as DJ.
It is important to bear in mind though, that you should only pick one of the two and not both of them since that's going to foster chaos in the event instead of livening it up. However, choosing between the two would surely not be easy and if you don't have the slightest bit of idea on how to choose between them, you're at the right place. Below are some of the differences between wedding band and DJ, which ought to give you the valuable information you need to make a wiser and more reliable decision.
One of the first advantage of hiring a live wedding band, is the fact that it's fun and exhilarating. You would also need no more explanation if you have attended a wedding before which had a live music for guests, and you'd surely agree that it's an option that would brighten up the event greatly. There's also the fact that live singers could become more spontaneous the longer the wedding takes, bringing in some unexpected surprises as well.
Nothing would be better than for your guests to always remember your event and though that can't be achieved with foods and simple music, adding a live band would surely rile them up and they're bound to remember the band as well as your wedding in total. There's also the fact that live bands are extremely adaptable to situations given their expertise and experience and as such, you would not have to worry even if the situation turns awry later on since they would surely not flunk out.
On the other end of the spectrum lies your option of hiring a Disc Jockey and there's no doubt that doing so would bring you advantages as well. You'll surely be able to liven the event with a DJ, since they could appeal more to the masses, since they have expertise in varieties of genre, allowing you to play different kinds of music from pop, rock, jazz, fusion of genres and beyond. Unlike wedding bands as well, hiring a DJ only requires a small space for them to function fully with little to no breaks, which would surely make it more convenient for your guests to enjoy the event.

Supporters of Iraqi cleric end protest in Baghdad
Wed, Aug 24 2022 03:47:52 PM
Baghdad, Aug 24 (IANS): Supporters of Iraqi Shia cleric Moqtada al-Sadr have ended their day-long protest outside the compound of the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) in Baghdad demanding the dissolution of Parliament.
A statement by al-Sadr's aide Mohammed Salih al-Iraqi said that Tuesday's sit-in was to "encourage the SJC to hold the corrupt accountable, but to avoid bringing harm to the people, we advise the protesters to withdraw", reports Xinhua news agency.
As the protesters withdrew from their sit-in site, the SJC said in a statement that it would resume its activities on Wednesday morning.
Earlier on Tuesday, hundreds of al-Sadr supporters set up dozens of tents to begin a sit-in protest in front of the SJC compound and sent threatening messages to the council in an attempt to pressure the federal court into dissolving Parliament to hold new parliamentary elections.
The suspension of the SJC prompted caretaker Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi to cut short his trip to Egypt for a five-way Arab summit.
Al-Kadhimi, also commander-in-chief of the Iraqi forces, returned to Baghdad to directly supervise the security forces protecting judicial institutions, according to a statement issued by his media office.
"Disrupting the work of the judicial institution exposes the country to real risks," he warned, calling for an immediate meeting of political leaders to activate a national dialogue to defuse the crisis.
President Barham Salih said in that "the country's developments require everyone to remain calm and give priority to dialogue so that the country does not slip into unknown and dangerous mazes in which everyone loses".
He said that disrupting the work of the judicial institution "is a serious matter that threatens the country."
For his part, Parliament Speaker Mohammed al-Halbousi said that "we must all resort to the constitution and be at the level of responsibility to get the country out of this suffocating crisis that may lead to the illegality of the political process".
The latest sit-in came as the political disputes have escalated in the past weeks between al-Sadr and rival Shia parties in the Coordination Framework (CF), an umbrella group.
On July 30, al-Sadr's followers broke into the heavily fortified Green Zone in central Baghdad and held an open sit-in in and outside Parliament building, demanding the dissolution of the parliament and early elections, all rejected by the CF parties.
The CF became the largest alliance in Parliament after al-Sadr ordered his followers in the Sadrist Movement, the biggest winner of the October 2021 elections with 73 seats, to withdraw.
During the past months, the continued disputes among the Shia parties have hampered the formation of a new government.

I thought it might be a good idea to ensure there is really good heritage interpretation this time. Compared to what you don't get anywhere else much on Auckland's waterfront. So here's a walk in, sit in, look at the history, sort of structure. Found it on Google. Plugged it in here close to Shed 10. That concrete block ferry building addition is behind.
Here's the actual picture. More later.
And this gives an idea of the underside of the 1st floor. This picture gives no idea of size, but I reckon the joist timbers are around 50x20 cms. That's a very hefty joist.
And again. I liked the feel of the building. Good bones.
But there are these interesting nooks and crannies you get to see when you stand at the end. Nothing like a bit of rust on some steps, and watching the waves lapping there.
And right at the Quay Street end of Queens Wharf, you are painfully aware of the tacky red fence between you and the ferry terminal. (This is a cheap and nasty bit of fence - not like that wonderful wrought iron stuff that adorns Quay Street.) You also notice the unimaginative and shut in concrete block wall of the ferry terminal additions. Note to all: get rid of those car parks. There is no room for private office carparks here. Lose the cheap red fence asap. Nor is there room for Fullers rubbish. And those buildings need to be opened up so they spill onto Queens Wharf.
I was invited to deliver my submission to the Select Committee at Orakei Marae on Bastion Point - Wednesday 8th July. This was because part of my submission addressed the matter of Maori seats. I also submitted about community boards (Community Councils in my lingo), Auckland Council elections, and Three Waters. Quite an experience.
Kia ora, and thank you and your staff for the opportunity of presenting my submission in this special place, Orakei Marae, Bastion Point.
This submission is in support of my written submission, which you will have.
But first of all a brief introduction to where I'm coming from, and where I come from.
I am from the Mainland. Went to school in Oamaru, university in Christchurch, and after becoming vastly over-qualified, went to live and work in England for 14 years.
There I had a spectacular time as a rocket scientist on military projects, as a systems analyst for Shell International working on oil price modelling and crude oil depletion, then for IBM designing interactive multimedia resources used when they introduced the first IBM PC into UK and European dealerships for personal and business use.
When I returned to New Zealand, I didn't need to go into Local Government. But I did because – like most committed politicians – I wanted to make a difference.
I've been an elected independent councillor in Auckland for the past 11 years. Including 6 years on North Shore City Council from 1998 where I chaired the Works Ctte during the Northern Busway design and North Shore's major sewer network cleanup program. I served on Devonport Community Board through those years also. In 2004 I stood for ARC. In my first term I chaired its Transport Committee and the Regional Land Transport Ctte that shifted $1 billion from state highway spending to public transport. Since then I have focussed on the waterfront, regional development, and – of course – governance.
Like most local government politicians I have a love/hate relationship with local government. I love it when it's good, and I hate it when it's bad. And after eleven years total immersion I have some understanding of the difference.
It's easy to hate something you don't understand. Unfortunately – many of those who have the power to decide what happens to Auckland's governance have publicly demonstrated a poor understanding of local government. And they hate it. Superficial criticisms and simplistic solutions will not deliver good governance for Auckland.
I am advised that this is not the place for me to state my opinions about the broad supercity proposals that have been proposed by Government – many of which I oppose - so I won't say any more about those opinions, unless asked.
The rest of what I'm going to say now, addresses the specifics of the Bill that is in front of you. My objective is to get the best outcomes from a flawed process.
ARC has a Maori Liaison unit with good staff. People like Tipa Compain and Johnny Freeland. But their contribution to ARC decision-making is mediated by other staff, by committee chairs, and by statute. Consequent decision-making is Treaty of Waitangi driven. There is no room for the broader Maori world view to be expressed.
To get a free and independent Maori voice around the Auckland Council table there needs to be 2 or 3 Maori seats at Council and key committees.
Forgive me if what I say now is a bit ignorant. I have some understanding of the Ngati Whatua AIP. I have had informal discussions with individual Maori - not all from Ngati Whatua - because I saw opportunities for Auckland Maori at Auckland's waterfront development. Through those discussions I understand some reasons why there has not been a coordinated and collective Maori voice in Auckland. Pending the resolution of individual iwi claims, it is difficult to speak with a collective voice. The Hikoi was an exception. I have learned a little of the negotiations that are occurring now between Government and Auckland iwi. I understand that the aim is for these negotiations to be with the broader collective, not just with specific iwi.
With that understanding in mind, I don't believe the best solution to Maori representation on Auckland Council is through 2 or 3 Maori candidates being elected.
I think Maori representatives would be better being appointed to Auckland Council, and relevant committees, to allocated seats, by the Auckland maori collective leadership, rather than being elected at large or from large wards.
This process would also mean that the most appropriate or informed maori voices can be appointed to take those seats at Council and its committees for specific decisions.
Most Councils appear to be supporting 20 wards, with one member/ward. This will lead to 20 First Past the Post elections (though the STV voting system would improve outcomes). I think there is a better option, which is supported by a significant number of ARC councillors.
Presently the ARC's 13 members are elected from 6 wards. Rodney and Papakura/Franklin are single member wards; Manukau is a 3 member ward; Auckland is a 4 member ward; and Waitakere and North Shore are each 2 member wards. In the multi-member wards, voters get to choose ALL of the members from that ward. So in Auckland - for example - voters get to cast 4 votes.
An option for Auckland Council would be: Rodney remains a 1 member ward; North Shore becomes a 3 member ward; Auckland is split into two 3 member wards (say); Waitakere becomes a 3 member ward; Franklin and Papakura are each 1 member wards; and Manukau becomes a 2 and a 3 member ward. (20 in total).
This structure – which echoes the ARC's present workable arrangement - offers an effective balance between at-large representation, and 20 single-member wards.
In addition, Community Councils should have clearly defined local planning responsibilities - such as the ability to process local resource consent applications. There is good reason for the Bill to statutorily provide for this sort of process and role.
Community Councils will be the local eyes and ears of Auckland Council. They will bear the brunt of community concerns should these arise. It is appropriate therefore, that their responsibilities are clear cut. Auckland Council should be accountable for its decisions, while Community Councils are accountable for local decisions.
The current bill provides for Auckland Council to delegate other functions to Community Councils. Such as local parks maintenance and management, local roading repairs. This is appropriate. This discretion is hard to prescribe in statute.
Community Board members need to be paid appropriately. If you give local members the job of peeling bananas and pay them peanuts – you'll get monkeys. There is dead wood in Auckland community boards now. This is a consequence of lack of power and low pay. Ensuring a typical Community Council workload translates into something like 3 days a week/member, would justify remuneration in the $35,000 to $45,000. Candidates of quality will be attracted by a combination of personally satisfying and publicly meaningful decision-making, and worthwhile remuneration.
How many Community Boards? Most North Shore Community Boards are col-located with Area Offices in buildings which also house the local library and community services such as the CAB. These combined community facilities are local institutions, but they have depended on North Shore City Council which acts as the anchor tenant. I would invite Select Ctte members to visit – for example – East Coast Bays, Glenfield and Devonport Area Offices to gain a better understanding of what I am talking about.
If any of the associated Community Boards (local Council) are abolished then it will be difficult to justify retention of the related Area Office. Like a house of cards. Whole communities will suffer.
Institutional losses on a huge scale are implicit in Government's reform proposals. It is my submission that – to ensure some community continuity – then Community Councils be built broadly along the lines of existing Community Boards.
Summing up: The legislation needs to deliver Community Councils that are appreciated as important, valuable and significant by the local community, and which will attract candidates of quality, and which can be established without destroying institutional community development infrastructure and networks that exist now.
It is essential that if vertical integration is the objective (merging Watercare as wholesaler of services, with the local water service functions of the current city and district councils), then that integration needs to be horizontal and include stormwater.
Throughout my experience of Auckland local government I have observed lobbying from those keen to gain control of piped and metered infrastructure. Water and wastewater are piped. They are also metered (wastewater is metered using "water-in" as a proxy for "wastewater-out"). A nice neat business.
The Bill at the moment is silent on stormwater – though some say that the word "wastewater" includes "stormwater". First time I've heard that one. To avoid uncertainty, the Bill needs to explicitly state that this vertically integrated entity will, also, manage stormwater and be responsible for stormwater infrastructure – soft and hard – and for managing and maintaining it. Regional stormwater infrastructure consists of detention & settling ponds, natural streams, and some piping.
Much of Waitakere, North Shore, Manukau stormwater infrastructure is currently run in an integrated way with the other 2 waters. Stormwater is the biggest problem for wastewater (infiltration causes overflows at pump stations); and rainwater is increasingly used as local supply (for washing water and irrigation). Stormwater is inextricably intermingled with water and wastewater. That is why related infrastructure needs to be managed as part of a 3-water approach.
So, there you have it. The most obviously engaged members of the Select Committee were Shane Jones and Simon Power, and its Chair - Tau Henare. They appeared very interested in the idea of Maori seats being allocated, and appropriate Maori members appointed.
On the 9th July 2009, independent commissioners - chaired by Leigh McGregor, declined Watercare's applications for consents needed to dispose of sewage biosolids into the quarry hole that will be left on Puketutu Island when Winstone Aggregates finish their rock quarrying operation there. I breathed a sigh of appreciation.
Stank, as far as I was concerned.
Made me think of Goebbels. He used to say, " if you tell a lie often enough, it becomes the truth." Felt the same to me, the use of the word "rehabilitation" to describe the dumping of partly processed human sewage as a "beneficial use" of this material, as a good way of "rehabilitating" this hole in the Island.
I guess the decision will be appealed. But it must help push Watercare in a different direction. And about time. It's a worry with Watercare being supported as the vertically integrated entity in charge of all of Auckland's 3-waters, if it so resolute about least cost, business friendly approaches to water.
Just as an end note to this posting, I note that Auckland's wastewater system needs a policy upgrade. For a start the "trade waste" option of tipping heavy metals etc into the sewer, in exchange for a nominal trade waste fee, must be stopped. Sydney Water stopped this practice almost 20 years ago. Their goal was to reduce the heavy metal contaminants that render biosolids dangerous to life and healthy land. Stopping trade wastes would begin the slow process of creating a better quality organic biosolids that is more likely to be composted usefully with greenwaste and used as a soil conditioner. I appreciate there are challenges with this. But it is becoming the Western world norm to genuinely reuse biosolids, and to recycle their organic content back into the ground.

March for Vanessa Guillen to be held in east Austin on Sunday
Posted: Jul 7, 2020 / 01:31 PM CDT / Updated: Jul 7, 2020 / 01:31 PM CDT
AUSTIN (KXAN) — On Sunday, July 12, the "East Side March for Vanessa Guillen" will be held to honor Guillen, the missing Fort Hood soldier whose remains were found last week.
PREVIOUSLY: Attorney confirms remains of missing Texas soldier Vanessa Guillen identified
The event will be held at 6 p.m. at Metz Park and conclude at Chicano Park. It will feature a tribute performance and candlelight vigil for the 20-year-old who went missing April 22.
Last week, investigators found partial remains along the Leon River in Bell County and on Monday, the remains were positively confirmed.
Investigators identified two of the suspects in Guillen's disappearance as Spc. Aaron David Robinson, 20, and Cecily Aguilar, 22.
Robinson, a fellow soldier, killed himself last week after fleeing Fort Hood, the base said. Investigators said Aguilar is the girlfriend of Robinson. She faces criminal complaint charges of conspiracy to tamper with evidence.
According to the complaint, Robinson told Aguilar that he killed a female soldier by striking her in the head with a hammer at Fort Hood on April 22. Robinson then, reportedly, asked Aguilar for help disposing of the body.
The complaint claims that Aguilar recognized the deceased as Guillen — whom she helped mutilate and dispose of.
If convicted, she faces up to 20 years in federal prison and a maximum fine of $250,000.
Guillen's family says that Vanessa was sexually assaulted and/or harassed before her disappearance, which an investigator said last week has "no credible reports" of having occurred. An investigation into the claims is ongoing, however, according to State Rep. John Carter, TX-31.
On Sunday, over 100 people gathered in downtown Austin to call for a congressional investigation into the death.

"It resonates with us because she's a Latina. She's young," said organizer Noemi Gonzalez. "She represents everything that we think about when we think about the American dream that your parents come over here and you want a better life for yourself and you sign up for the military and you don't expect to be murdered."
As part of Sunday's protest, those who participate are asked to wear white and practice social distancing. Masks and face coverings will be required.


Cameroon shut down the biggest cattle market in the Far North region because suspected Boko Haram militants are seen trading stolen livestock to finance weapons and food.
The closing of Meme in Mayo-Sava, where a double bombing in February killed 24 people, came as authorities believe the Islamist group is poised to resume attacks in the region, Governor Midjiyawa Bakari said by phone on Monday. Four people were killed and two seriously injured on Aug. 21 after a suspected militant detonated explosives outside the main market in the town of Mora.
The Far North region witnessed at least 200 attacks, including nearly 40 bombings that killed at least 480 people since July 2015, Amnesty International said last month. The insurgents carried out the first such attack in Cameroon on July 12, 2015, in Fotokol, killing 13 civilians and two soldiers.
Cameroon's defense force arrested 63 people during an overnight raid in Mora on Saturday, Bakari said. Most of those arrested were displaced persons without identification papers or people in possession of dangerous weapons, he said.


In Japanese food culture both taste and how the dish is presented play a very important role. It is a part of Omotenashi (hospitality) philosophy, of which the best example is sushi. In Japan the art of making sushi has been professionalized for hundreds of years. A flawless sushi is an aesthetic play of colours, shapes and textures to satisfy our eyes, touch and taste.
A vegan sushi restaurant Youmiko, placed in Warsaw, Poland, has mastered this art to the perfection. The sushi master, Przybyszewska Marysia, composes the sushi in a way that used vegetables remind us of jewelry.
This resemblance is very interesting and metamorphic as both vegetables and jewelry beautify us. Vegetables from the inside constitute to a healthy glowing skin and strong shiny hair; and jewelry is a nuance that make our #ootd. Furthermore, looking good makes us feel more confident and gives the feeling of conquering the world is not impossible.
So how it happened that a sushi restaurant, in a bit far country as Poland is, mastered the sushi making and moreover went a step forward to make the sushi vegan? We asked sushi master Przybyszewska Marysia and Youmiko brand owner Gnatowski Pawel.
1. What is the origin of the restaurant's name "Youmiko Vegan Sushi" (ヨウミコ スシ)?
Actually, I have acquired Youmiko Vegan Sushi few years ago. Back then it was just a simple sushi bar. I have decided not to change the name as for me it was more important to focus on transforming the bar it into a high quality vegan sushi restaurant. Frankly, it worked out very well; We do not serve traditional sushi but create a vegan one, the same is with the name, we added one additional "o" to traditional Yumiko spelling, making it one of the kind just as our sushi.
2. What have inspired you to make Youmiko Vegan Sushi brand vegan?
First, Japanese sushi philosophy takes it a priori to use local products. In Poland it is very difficult to find sushi with appropriate fish at local markets. Most of the fish found here live in lakes or rivers which makes their flavour a bit sludgy, hence it is not good for our sushi. So I have decided to try to fill in the blanks with local vegetables.
The second reason is that about 3 years ago I have converted into plant based diet, therefore it was only natural to want to spread this philosophy and a way of living.
3. For who have you opened your restaurant?
I did not really have in mind only one particular type of a customer, like vegan or not. All I wanted, was to establish a restaurant that serves high quality food and that agrees with my lifestyle beliefs, so plant based diet. Now we have more and more non-vegan customers coming as they are curious of vegan sushi. Truth be told, none has ever complained, they all are very satisfied with our sushi.
4. How do you imagine Youmiko Vegan Sushi's role in dining culture?
I think, my biggest wish is to convince people that plant based diet does not only mean raw salad. I would like to show that vegan cuisine is even richer in taste and variations than any other diet. Moreover, dishes can be served in a very aesthetic way just as in Michelin stars restaurants. So I hope Youmiko Sushi is in a good way towards that goal.
5. What is your perception of veganism now and how it was before opening the restaurant?
I had been a vegetarian for many years already and since half a year ago I have decided to go vegan. For me, this type of cooking was always an exciting journey full of new tastes and unlimited possibilities. But what I have learned while working at Youmiko Vegan Sushi is that many people consider vegetarian/ vegan cuisine as plain and lacking in variations.
Even though, Warsaw is on the 3rd place of the top Vegan European Capitals, many people are sceptic about vegan diet. Fortunately, after trying our sushi their opinions change and they become more excited about the plant based diet, as they notice that it can be so delicious.
6. What inspires you to create new sushi variations?
Nature is my ultimate inspiration. Whenever I get my eyes on a new plant, vegetable fruit or mushroom, I start imagining how can I use it: cut it, shred it, cook it, fry it, marinate it.
Also seasons guide me. I always use fresh ingredients, hence in some way my sushi depends on what is available in a given season. Now, I am very excited about Autumn coming and all the roots that Autumn provides.
Furthermore, I search for traditional Japanese sushi, as some of them are small pieces of art, and when I fell in love with some arrangement, then I try to think which vegetable or fruit can be used to achieve the same presentation and colours palette.
7. What is your favourite vegetable and why?
Sometimes, they come seasonally. But in general, I love tomatoes. They are available in many colours and shades. This fruit can be prepared in so many inspiring ways. At this moment, I am very proud of my sake marinated tomato sushi, that looks like the best tuna nigiri. The parts of tomato, that are left after cutting it for a nigiri, are used to make a spicy tatar with togarashi (or shichimi, which is used in Japan) and Sriracha souse. It is later used for maki or gunkan. I am very happy that all the parts of the tomato can be used, as additionally I prefer minimal waste cooking.
I also like corn, because of its shape. And I am getting more and more persuaded towards paprika, however it has very intensive taste and smell, so not very applicable for sushi.
8. Why using seasonal ingredients is important?
I believe that nature knows how to supply all the necessary nutrients for us in each season, therefore we should listen to it and use the ingredients it provides at a given time. Using seasonal vegetables and fruits helps sustain our body rhythm and harmony, I think.
It is also important to try to use local suppliers. For me, it is crucial. Getting food locally prevents unnecessary use of preservatives and other chemicals that help food survive the transport and stay fresh longer. I know all my suppliers and I am sure of what I consume.
9. What is your cooking philosophy?
For me the most important is to prepare the food in a way that causes uncontrolled and euphoric smiles on people's faces. Then I am very satisfied, as I am sure that they love it. And it motivates me to try new things and to keep developing.

Search Walking in Patients' Shoes
Healthcare Administrators
EMR: a doctor-patient perspective
By Aida Salam on January 6, 2020
Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are digitalised clinical notes, which contain information such as patients' general information, history, investigation results, diagnoses and treatment plans among others. It is all the rage in the healthcare industry, and Malaysia is adamant not to be left behind, especially by its South-East Asian counterparts. Currently, 25% of hospitals in Malaysia are equipped with Hospital Information System (HIS), while 7% of government clinics are equipped with Clinical Information System (CIS). The Health Minister, Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad had announced in July that RM1.5 billion is expected to be incurred as the ministry rolls out EMR system to all 145 hospitals within the next five years.
Many articles on the matter published by local newspapers and widely available for the general public often highlight the benefits of the system's implementation. I get it. Having digital infrastructure in Malaysian hospitals may actually help achieve some of the ministry's strategic objectives and facilitate comprehensive and integrated care for patients. However, I feel that one shouldn't ignore the struggles that come with it too. Also, note that the system is not self-operating. There are clinicians who key in all those information into the system, there are patients' who are affected by the usage of the system, and there are healthcare administrators that have to manage the system and its output. And yet their unique views (both positive and negative) are not out there.
I have been on all three sides of this story. I have been a clinical doctor in a hospital using EMR, a patient in hospitals with EMR, as well as a healthcare administrator in a hospital with EMR. And I intend to put my positive and negative views from all three angles right here in this article. I know it won't change much in the grand scheme of things, but I think it's only fair to share this with you (my readers). Take this as an act of balancing the scale if you may. I hope this article finds you nodding in agreement as it resonates with your experience as clinicians, patients, or healthcare administrators. Or maybe finds you shaking your head in disagreement too, and perhaps we can agree to disagree.
Pros as a patient
Well, for starters you (patient) don't really have to rely much on your memory trying to recall your previous progress or blood results for example, because your doctors could just review those information and results just by clicking a few buttons on the EMR system. For someone who is being seen by as many as six (6) specialities at a time, I definitely would appreciate having such system in place (a hospital that I frequent as a patient does not have EMR). Not to mention that the system may allow detection of an alarming pattern of results which may protect us as patients. Also, not having to carry around prescription slips once your doctor is done with you because the pharmacists can view it on the system is just fantastic – one less document to deal with.
Cons as a patient
It is not as fantastic though when your doctors fail to maintain eye-contact and have meaningful discussions with you because they are too busy typing away information into the system. Who can blame them? The system that aims to facilitate care has ironically taken out 'care' from the equation. There's also the cybersecurity risk that your health information may leak, breaching the security and privacy of your personal data. It has happened before, and it can happen again. Plus, there are many human errors that can be magnified by 'weaknesses' inherent to the system. Clicking errors in prescribing are particularly rampant in hospitals with EMR as doctors become accustomed to the rapidity provided by the system, raising the level of patient safety hazard more than ever before.
Pros as a doctor
It's amazing what EMR would allow us (doctors) do. We can trace patients' old clinical notes faster, check out what our colleagues from other disciplines are/ were doing for the patients, review all investigation results, refer our patients – all in just a few clicks away. Contrast these with days of waiting for patients' old clinical notes, lack of communication across multidisciplinary teams, delay in receiving investigation results and the need to produce actual hardcopy referral letters. Needless to say that the rate of which patients' healthcare information becomes available through the system also assists doctors in making diagnosis and treatment/care decisions. Ultimately the ease that comes with the system translates into better care integration for our patients and better outcomes.
Cons as a doctor
Copying and pasting old entries to 'summarise' patients' progress has become quite a phenomenon as the system lend itself as an efficiency tool in the industry. It diminishes doctors' summarising skills, which is crucial for inpatient care. It may even result in patient harm if care is not taken to ensure that doctors are not copying outdated diagnosis from which patients have recovered from which can result in the continuation of unnecessary treatment that can be harmful. The system which often has many mandatory fields to be filled also make us doctors feel like we have somehow turned into data-entry clerks as opposed to being healthcare professionals that provide patient-centred care. It may lead to burnout as it shifts our focus from caring for our patients.
Pros as a healthcare administrator
It is the best thing since sliced bread. Well, at least in healthcare administrators eyes, which explains why all press statements about the EMR system thus far has been harping on its benefits and nothing else. Healthcare administrators just love it. It allows us to monitor the efficiency of processes, the achievement of targets, financials, and even patients' movement within the walls of the hospitals. I can literally just ask for a data set to be formulated by hospitals' IT officers for almost anything I wanted to analyse further and it has helped me and countless other colleagues in our pursuit of improving the hospital services. And the fact that the system reduces our paper wastage and need for physical storage space made it all the more attractive to us. Helping both patients and the environment, no?
Cons as a healthcare administrator
Well, until we realise how much space server room takes and that in producing energy to maintain servers for the system many trees may have been harmed too. So much for saving the environment by going paperless. Not to mention that maintaining the servers cost more than buying papers and its storage facility. Operating and maintaining a system as complex as EMR is time-consuming and requires technical expertise and infrastructural updates which raises its need for massive capital investment on a regular basis. Can we afford this? Are we really using it to help us achieve our strategic objectives? What decisions are we making with the data and statistics that are made available to us by the system? Or are we losing sight of what is important by jumping on this EMR bandwagon?
I know it seems unfair for me to pose those final questions. They are not really "Cons as a healthcare administrator", so to speak. But they are there because I have no answers to them, and in not having answers they (well, at least to me) could potentially become lurking negatives that could render the EMR system pointlessly expensive. Maybe a thorough cost-benefit analysis has been done by the ministry and the result is promising, hence the press statements of the plan to roll it out to all hospitals in half a decade. I wouldn't know the details of that. But as I've said earlier, everything I've written in this article is just my effort to offset the mostly positive information published about EMR out there. Counterbalancing perspectives from a doctor-patient-healthcare administrator.
It has been great writing this article. Below I provide a list of some related press-releases, articles, blog posts that I've come across while I was doing my reading around the topic. If you have other articles on the topic that you would like to share with me, please link it in the comment section below. The list that I provide is not exhaustive and I am by no means an expert on the topic, which is why your input is valuable and greatly appreciated. Please feel free to engage in discussions on the matter or challenge my views. I'd like to know that it isn't just me who is feeling slightly unsettled with what seems to be a one-sided view of the EMR rolling out plan. I believe that it is not all good, but at the same time, it is not all bad either. Thank you for reading.

Did you know the EPA has found indoor air pollution to be five times worse than outside air? Air purifiers aren't just for people with asthma or allergies; they are for anyone who wants to breathe clean air inside their home.
Foskey Heating & Air uses Fresh-Aire UV Whole-House Air Purifiers. Made in the USA, these products keep your indoor air system clean and make it last longer.
These purifiers use ultraviolet light at a level that disrupts the DNA of micro-organisms, thereby preventing them from reproducing and effectively killing them. As mold, bacteria, viruses and allergens from the air pass through a home's central air system, they are sterilized by the UV light.

After a pest develops resistance to a pesticide, switching between different unrelated pesticides is a common management option, but this raises the following questions: (1) What is the optimal frequency of pesticide use? (2) How do the frequencies of pesticide applications affect the evolution of pesticide resistance? (3) How can the time when the pest population reaches the economic injury level (EIL) be estimated and (4) how can the most efficient frequency of pesticide applications be determined? To address these questions, we have developed a novel pest population growth model incorporating the evolution of pesticide resistance and pulse spraying of pesticides. Moreover, three pesticide switching methods, threshold condition-guided, density-guided and EIL-guided, are modelled, to determine the best choice under different conditions with the overall aim of eradicating the pest or maintaining its population density below the EIL. Furthermore, the pest control outcomes based on those three pesticide switching methods are discussed. Our results suggest that either the density-guided or EIL-guided method is the optimal pesticide switching strategy, depending on the frequency (or period) of pesticide applications.

Highly-skilled educators are the cornerstone of quality care.
Early Childhood Educators are certified professionals who establish the foundation for life-long learning.
They support our youngest Islanders to grow and thrive in the early years – the most rapid period of brain development. However, Prince Edward Island employers cannot recruit nor retain certified staff due to low wages.
In 2010, the Government of Prince Edward Island committed to a five-year wage grid. Wages should have increased by 24% over the past eight years. To date, there has been a total of 4% increase.
An Early Childhood Educator with a two-year diploma earns an estimated 61% of what a college educated man earns and 74% of what a college educated woman earns.
Employees who provide inclusion support services to children in need of the most specialized care are considered non-certified on the Wage Grid and earn minimum wage.
An Educational Assistant in the public education system with a two-year diploma earns 19.98% more than a Level III Early Childhood Educator with a two-year diploma.
That the Government of Prince Edward Island commits to a five-year Early Learning and Child Care Wage Grid with wages in line with PEI Educational Assistants.
That anyone working in an Inclusion Support Assistant role is required to be certified by the PEI certification board.
That certified Inclusion Support Assistants are added to the Early Learning and Child Care Wage Grid equivalent to Level II or Level III Early Childhood Educator, based on educational background.
That the Government of Prince Edward Island makes investments to develop and implement a workforce strategy that will allow the system to support the growing needs of families and the Island economy.
We represent Prince Edward Island's over 5000 children in licensed Early Learning and Child Care Centres across Prince Edward Island. Let's work together to create a Quality Child Care System!

There are many causes of stress, ranging from work and money to family and relationships. The best way to cope is to get to the root cause and only by doing this will you be able to get rid of those stressful feelings. Follow these five top tips for dealing with stress and you will be well on your way to a happier, healthier you.
A side effect of stress can be negativity in the way you look at life, so if you are able to change the way you think about things this is a good method for coping. To alleviate some of this it is worth trying to focus on the good things in your life and to be appreciative of all the things you have rather than focusing on the things you do not. In addition, there are certain occurrences in life that will happen and nothing you can do can stop or prevent them. These often life-changing events can be stressful. In those circumstances you need to look at whether there is anything about the situation you can change, shifting your focus to that rather than worrying about factors you cannot control.
For most people doing things solely to suit themselves does not come naturally; however, time to yourself to recharge your batteries and remove yourself from a stressful situation can be a big help. If you are stressed about work, engaging in recreational activities in the evenings is a good idea. If these activities are challenging for you, that is even better, as setting goals for yourself and increasing your confidence will mean that you should be better equipped to cope with stressful situations.
Feelings of stress can be compounded if you feel lonely. However, talking to friends and family about the things which are making you feel stressed can be a relief and just the act of getting problems off your chest can make you feel much better. In addition, assisting other people who have their own problems to overcome may help you to find some perspective about your own issues and in turn make you feel less stressed.
Physical activity can be a stress reliever as the challenging nature of exercise will help to improve your attitude and should enable you to clear your head. Being physically stronger also means that you will be better equipped mentally to deal with the things in life that are likely to be stressful. Exercise can also produce a positive hormonal effect.
A lot of people think that the best way to deal with stress is to indulge in an unhealthy habit such as smoking, drinking or eating unhealthy food. In truth, many bad habits that are used as a way of coping with one stressful situation are likely to cause stress about other things, ranging from health and self-esteem to money.
The key to dealing with stress is to look at the root cause. When you have identified that, try to see what you can do to change the situation. Use tools such as being physically fit and healthy and having a good mental attitude to help you cope. Hopefully your stress will be relieved as a result, giving you the chance to acquire a happy, relaxed attitude to life.

Trump Administration Rescinds Obama-Era Guidance Encouraging Affirmative Action
By Camila Domonoske
Attorney General Jeff Sessions speaks at the Association of State Criminal Investigative Agencies event in May. On Tuesday, the departments of Justice and Education announced that they have retracted documents that advised schools on how they could legally consider race in admissions and other decisions.
The White House is withdrawing Obama-era guidance documents that encouraged schools and colleges to promote diversity through their admissions process.
The departments of Justice and Education announced on Tuesday that they have retracted several letters and memos that advised schools on how they could legally consider race in admissions and other decisions.
Education and diversity advocacy groups have reacted with alarm.
"By encouraging schools to not consider race during the admissions process or potentially in any other circumstance, President Trump is undermining the benefits of diversity in schools and accelerating the socio-economic divide," NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson said in a statement.
"Educators know that all students, and not just our students of color, benefit from diverse and inclusive classrooms," Lily Eskelsen García, the National Education Association president, said in a statement.
In 2016, a divided Supreme Court upheld the use of race-based admissions in colleges, deciding that such policies do not necessarily violate the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause.
Justice Anthony Kennedy, the court's crucial swing vote, wrote the majority opinion in that case. Kennedy announced his resignation last week, and Trump is interviewing possible replacements. Analysts say the choice of justice could influence the future of affirmative action, among many other issues.
The Obama-era letters and memos on affirmative action did not have the weight of law. (A number of laws, including the Civil Rights Act, address the issue of race in school admissions, and the requirements of those laws are not affected by the new retractions.)
Instead, the documents provided interpretations of the law and offered suggestions to schools.
Retracting the memos sends a signal about the Trump administration's priorities. The Justice Department has previously threatened to sue universities over affirmative action policies.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions also says in a statement that he believes previous administrations exploited guidance documents to "circumvent the rulemaking process," denouncing the memos and letters as "unnecessary or improper."
Sessions says the Justice Department has identified a total of 24 guidance documents to repeal this month, including not just a number of affirmative action documents but also guidance on home loans, fair employment, refugees' right to work and the detention of juveniles, among other topics.

Remember the other day we reported that Sprint could be introducing an iPhone trade-in promotion? As it turns out the leak was right on the money and Sprint has since announced the trade-in program. For those who might have missed the news, this is a promotion held by Sprint that will offer iPhone users a chance to trade-in their device for a brand new iPhone 4S with $100 credit towards the phone along with a new two-year contract. This is to help attract iPhone users on other networks who might have an older iOS device and who are looking to upgrade without having to spend too much money.
