Opinion: The integral role of self-care in advancing UHC
Self-care can be a highly effective piece of the integrated, people-centered health service and health system. In fact, I see self-care interventions as being among the most promising new approaches in primary health care.
According to the World Health Organization, self-care interventions include "evidence-based, high-quality drugs, devices, diagnostics and/or digital interventions that can be provided fully or partially outside formal health services and used with or without a health worker."
There are several advantages to including self-care interventions within national health system strategies. WHO recommends self-care interventions for every country and economic setting as a critical path to reaching universal health coverage, promoting health, keeping the world safe, and serving the vulnerable.
Ideally, self-care interventions should be available alongside facility- and provider-based health care services and should be highly targeted toward those individuals and conditions that stand to benefit the most from a self-care-focused approach.
While WHO has a role to play in putting forward guidance on self-care, real change is driven by policies at the national and community level. Policymakers have an obligation to help build an enabling environment for self-care. Policies that make individuals feel safe and supported and provide access to self-care products and interventions can improve the uptake of self-care behaviors and thus improve the health and well-being of the population.
Public health education campaigns can also help people feel supported and empowered to make decisions about their own health. However, to be effective, they need to be paired with access to self-care products including nonprescription medicines, dietary supplements, vitamins, and simple medical devices and tests designed for home use.
Thoughts from Dr. Zhang Qi on the role of traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine
At WHO, we say that traditional medicine is the sum total of the knowledge, skills, and practices based on theories, beliefs, and experiences inherent to different cultures — whether explicable or not.
Traditional medicine is used across the wellness spectrum, from the maintenance and improvement of health to the prevention and treatment of diseases. Traditional, complementary, and integrative medicine are often underestimated, despite a global demand for this type of care.
WHO's "Traditional Medicine Strategy: 2014-2023" seeks to guide and support countries in integrating traditional and complementary medicine, or T&CM, into national health systems as appropriate to the national context. T&CM products are also among the top five in the list of most downloaded products from WHO last year.
Traditional medicine has a unique role in self-care and supplements and practices can complement other self-care practices, providing patients with a holistic and integrative approach for managing their own health.
For example, a 2016 study in China suggested that primary care practitioners prescribe the ancient Chinese exercise taiji or tai chi as a culturally appropriate self-care exercise, which may have more impact than other physical exercises. Another example of intervention for self-care is the tai chi online training courses developed by a WHO Collaborating Centre.
Traditional medicine can be complementary to self-care efforts at the systems level as well. Traditional and integrative medicine practitioners have a key role to play in educating communities on disease prevention and public health issues.
Appropriate care-seeking can empower individuals with the knowledge necessary to fully embrace self-care and make informed choices about their health. This is also an important part of community engagement as traditional medicine is rooted in local communities and intercultural health and diversity.
The global conversation on self-care is not new. We know that it has been practiced by people for centuries.. Now, personalized self-care services and growing e-commerce platforms, coupled with the ways in which the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted national health systems, have ushered in a new era of self-care, and a new set of questions on what constitutes self-care, how people can best utilize self-care interventions, and where self-care fits within the health care continuum.
To support advocacy and broader recognition of self-care, we have actively collaborated in creating the first Self-Care Readiness Index, an action-oriented research report developed by the Global Self-Care Federation. It illustrates the self-care ecosystem in 10 diverse countries. It also identifies the critical enablers of self-care — such as patient empowerment — and then measures the self-care "readiness" of the selected health systems, identifying best practices and highlighting common challenges.
The index will help to further the global conversation on what governments can do to better support the uptake of self-care behaviors appropriate to their national context.

TIFF 2021: What We're Most Excited to See
by That Shelf Staff | September 2, 2021, 2:00 pm
The countdown begins today! With just one week to go until this year's Toronto International Film Festival kicks off, movie lovers are running out of time to finalize their must-see movie list. Despite a slightly pared-down slate, largely due to COVID-19 restrictions and logistics, there are still close to 200 titles to choose from over the 10 days of screenings. Then there's the inevitable, yearly dilemma: do you try to see all the buzzed about biggies or set out to discover something completely new and different? There's definitely plenty of the former including Denis Villeneuve's Dune, Julia Ducournau's Titane, Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho, and Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog; but likewise, between an inordinately great slate of documentaries (The Rescue, Becoming Cousteau) and an impressive list of contemporary international pieces (Saloum, Snakehead, Întregalde), there's lots to be found outside the spotlight.
The team here at That Shelf has combed through the full schedule and made our must lists. Then we revised them, and revised them again until our minds were solely filled with screening dates and times. But now it's time to commit. So whether it's a movie with built-in buzz (Spencer), an under-the radar indie with potential (Learn to Swim), or just something that makes our film-loving hearts flutter (Night Raiders), here's what we're excited to see at TIFF 2021. —Emma Badame
PAT MULLEN'S PICKS
Pablo Larraín's Jackie was my favourite film of 2016 for its hypnotic and unconventional portrait of Jackie O. This time, Larraín gives the Princess of Wales the moody dark psychological probing with Kristen Stewart tackling the beloved Lady Di. The only question is: can she match Emma Corrin's take on Spencer from The Crown? Both the director and star invite high expectations, but I think they'll deliver.
Free Solo Oscar winners (and TIFF People's Choice Award for Documentary winners) Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi follow their daring mountain movie with a deep dive on the 2018 Thai cave rescue saga that gripped the world. Screening at in IMAX Cinesphere during TIFF, this film should be one gripping adventure. Take that, Dune!
Terence Davies has enjoyed forty years as a queer cinematic icon despite only directing eight features, none of which focused on a romantic relationship between two men. Benediction sees Davies step out of the closest, so to speak, with this portrait of poets Siegfried Sassoon and Wilfred Owen, played by Jack Lowden and Jeremy Irvine.
RACHEL WEST'S PICKS
The Forgiven
Lawrence Osborn's novel painted a picture of decadence in the Moroccan desert that feels like it will translate seamlessly to film. It's as though he wrote the roles of the strained, privileged couple with dream red-headed duo Ralph Fiennes and Jessica Chastain in mind. Having John Michael McDonagh (The Guard, Calvary) behind the camera to fully explore the themes of debauchery, colonialism, and white privilege is an exciting prospect that makes The Forgiven my number one TIFF pick this year.
A darkly comedic Christmas movie set on humankind's final evening is exactly the edgy and unique take we need. In her feature film debut, Camille Griffin directs an ensemble cast of actors including Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Lucy Punch, Lily-Rose Depp, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Jojo Rabbit's Roman Griffin Davis who make the darkness all the more delectable.
Kenneth Branagh calls Belfast his "most personal film to date" as he sets his coming-of-age story in Northern Ireland in the late 1960s. Jamie Dornan, Caitriona Balfe, Ciaran Hinds and Judi Dench are on board but the focus of the story is young Buddy (Jude Hill) who dreams of a glamorous life far away than what the Troubles will bring him. It's a no-brainer for any Irish film lover to want to take in.
EMMA BADAME'S PICKS
It's a cinematic sin that it's taken so long to adapt Thomas Savage's intensely compelling 1967 novel for the big screen. That said, it's hard to think of anyone more capable of bringing this intensely nuanced tale of 1920's repression to life than Jane Campion. Add in a fabulous cast fronted by Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons, Kirsten Dunst, and Kodi Smit-McPhee, and this TIFF 2021 pick has epic written all over it.
There are so many potential gems flying under the radar at TIFF 2021 that it's hard to focus on just one but Thyrone Tommy's feature debut is up there. A homegrown and heartfelt story about love, loss and jazz looks like it just might hit all the right notes. A close second: Agustina San Martín's tropical gothic tale To Kill the Beast.
The Electrical Life of Louis Wain
Tribute Award recipient Benedict Cumberbatch fronts two eye-catching films at TIFF 2021, including this true-to-life tale which also counts Cumberbatch as Executive Producer. The interesting yet tragic life of eccentric artist Louis Wain—a man who introduced the Victorian world to the delights of anthropomorphized cats—takes centre stage here and looks to deliver audiences something a little more enlightening than your standard biopic fare. Meow.
RACHEL HO'S PICKS
The top pick for two That Shelf writers as their favourite film at the halfway point of the year, Flee is an animated documentary telling the story of a refugee fleeing Afghanistan and his sexual awakening as a teen in Denmark. I love that such a harrowing and poignant story is told through animation, and I can't wait to get lost in "Amin's" tale.
Night Raiders
Danis Goulet's short films made her a filmmaker to watch, and her feature debut Night Raiders promises to be thrilling and thought-provoking.
I'm a big fan of Catherine Hernandez's novel of the same name and never would have thought that it would receive the cinematic treatment. There's so much Canadian talent to celebrate!
COURTNEY SMALL'S PICKS
Dug Dug
A satire about a motorcycle that sparks a new religion? Consider my curiosity piqued.
At this point, any film that features Riz Ahmed is an automatic must-see.
Mlungu Wam (Good Madam)
Having enjoyed Jenna Cato Bass' High Fantasy, I am eager to see this psychological thriller about the legacy South Africa's colonial land theft.
BARBARA GOSLAWSKI'S PICKS
I loved Thyrone Tommy's previous short, Mariner, about a Naval cadet undergoing his final exam. The very film itself took on the qualities of an anxiety attack in motion. Now as Tommy returns with his debut feature, a difficult story of love and loss, I can't help but imagine how he'll masterfully imbue this troubled tale of a jazz duo with the complexities and dense emotions of the music itself.
Quickening
When I saw Waseem's Shahzad at TIFF '16, I recognized a sympathetic soul who understood how to mine the depths of a single telling moment. This is rare. Returning with Quickening, her debut feature, I am excited to witness that sensitivity in play again as she explores the complex world of a young Pakistani woman navigating the clash between cultural expectations and her own desires and dreams.
SHANE SLATER'S PICKS
On the evidence of her impressive career from her delicately wrought debut Water Lilies to her striking breakout hit Portrait of a Lady on Fire, French filmmaker Celine Sciamma seems incapable of making a bad film. Her latest festival darling Petite Maman sees her returning to the evocative childhood narratives of her earlier work, promising typically empathetic and affecting storytelling.
The name Jane Campion should be enough to generate excitement for this adaptation of the Thomas Savage novel The Power of the Dog. But when you couple her pedigree with the quality of its headlining cast (Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons), its prime awards season release date and Netflix's obvious confidence in its prospects, it's clear that this film will be talked about passionately in the months to come.
Some of the best discoveries at TIFF reliably come from the documentary slate, and if you've seen the nerve-wracking Free Solo, then you won't want to miss directing duo Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi's The Rescue. Recounting the extraordinary rescue of a Thai soccer team trapped in a cave for 16 days, you can expect a similarly riveting viewing experience.
MARRISKA FERNANDES'S PICKS
Directed by Shasha Nakhai and Rich Williamson, this Canadian drama, based on the award-winning novel by Catherine Hernandez, takes a look at a diverse community, portraying three low-income families as they struggle to survive the system. This heartfelt film is definitely going to be one to watch out for!
I'm looking forward to Kristen Stewart's turn as Princess Di. The Pablo Larraín film takes place over three days as the late Princess of Wales decides to end her marriage to Prince Charles. Watching Stewart step into this highly anticipated role will be very interesting.
Toronto's Thyrone Tommy makes his debut feature film as he takes a dive into the contemporary jazz scene, exploring romance between two very different contemporary jazz musicians. Tommy was previously at the festival with his acclaimed short Mariner, and his feature certainly looks promising.
Colin in Black and White
Ava DuVernay's Netflix limited series chronicles what inspired activist and NFL athlete Colin Kaepernick to risk his livelihood in support of civil rights. Jaden Michael stars as young Kaepernick while the real Colin serves as co-creator and executive producer, and provides a narration for every episode. After Selma and When They See Us, I have no doubt this is going to be another moving series not to be missed.
This upcoming Netflix K-drama series is the first Korean television series to be invited to the festival. Helmed by Train To Busan director Yeon Sang-ho, the thriller is set in a dystopian world where supernatural entities deliver a final judgement on people based on their sins. As a fan of K-dramas and all things supernatural, I'm looking forward to this one.
TIFF 2021 runs from September 8 through to September 18.

← For nearly everybody, earning a bachelor's degree in a STEM field is hard. So what should STEM in the K-12 schools look like?
The education transition team appointed by Florida's Governor-elect Ron DeSantis met for the first time this past Thursday and discussed (according to Jeff Solochek of the Tampa Bay Times) choice, accountability, personalization and metrics.
None of that stuff will matter if the state's schools can't recruit, develop and retain enough great teachers to educate every child. And Florida is doing a lousy job of that now.
The teacher issue certainly wasn't featured at Thursday's meeting. It should have been front and center.
I'll risk alienating my readers (both of them) by saying this: I want great teachers everywhere, in all educational sectors. I want great teachers in charter schools, Catholic schools and other schools receiving state scholarships. And of course I want more great teachers in our traditional district schools.
From my perch at the postsecondary end of the STEM pipeline, it looks to me like all three sectors – private, charter and traditional district schools – are falling short on making sure every math and science classroom is led by a teacher who is equipped to give each student the best opportunity to fulfill her or his potential.
If every teacher at every charter, private and traditional public school has a deep understanding of her or his subject and the training, personality and physical tools to build a strong educational relationship with each student, then accountability, personalization and metrics will take care of themselves. That's why every discussion of educational policy should start by addressing the issue of teacher recruiting and retention instead of backing into the subject of teachers only after all the usual education policy buzzwords have been said by everyone.
What do teachers want? Or…what do our strong students want in order to enter the teaching profession? The American Physical Society's survey of undergraduates in chemistry, computer science, math and physics and early career teachers in those fields provides a start in answering those questions. It was a national survey and not Florida-specific, but it's likely the most important issues in our state can still be glimpsed in the results.
According to the survey, the four things that early career teachers of chemistry, computer science, math and physics like least about teaching are hostile or unresponsive administrators, excessive non-teaching obligations, the long hours and the low salaries. Next on the same list are state mandated testing, lack of respect for the teaching profession and disruptive and unruly students.
Among undergraduates who had at least a slight interest in teaching, the survey found that the most effective way to sway them to enter the profession is higher salaries.
None of this should surprise anyone. You'd almost certainly get the same answers by listening to your local teachers – but if you took the time to listen to them you'd learn much more, too.
Let's be clear about one thing: There are some outstanding individuals in the K-12 teaching profession, despite all the disincentives to enter the profession in the first place and to stay once there. These outstanding educators stay because they know they are making a difference. We need more individuals just like them to become teachers and stay. Removing some of those disincentives would help.
I hope the 2019 session of the Florida Legislature is The Teacher Session. Rebuilding the teaching profession in Florida is the K-12 issue that matters most.

You are trading for several months now, and things are going well. You win some, lose some, but the overall outcome is successful: you win more money than you lose, by using sensible risk/reward ratios and rules of money management. This is not the "beginners' luck" sensational win. So, you feel confident with your trading and you consider scaling up, in order to make more money, at the right time.
There are several methods of scaling up, but some of them can be harmful.
Opening more positions at your usual trading times: By utilizing your time in a better manner, you can squeeze in more trades and potentially more profits. Perhaps you have been very careful and strict, and after gaining experience, there's room for adding more trades. This should be done very carefully. But this has a downside as well. By opening more positions at the same time scale, you apply more pressure on yourself, and might find yourself looking for a setup which is never there.
Extending your trading hours: Also here, if your trade hours have been very limited so far, and you have enough spare time and the capacity to handle longer trading times, you can give it a try, by increasing the trading times gradually, adding a little bit more time to your sessions. There's a downside also here: perhaps your trading systems work better at specific trading sessions, and extending your trading hours will just extend your losses. In addition, you might find yourself too easily in the pitfall of overtrading: also here, you may find yourself imagining trades that have no chance.
Scaling up position sizes: This is the preferred method. This way, you don't change your trading times and frequency, but just enlarge your position sizes. Assuming that your account has grown by now, the percentage of your account that is risked each time will remain limited – money management rules will still be applied. When enlarging position sizes, you may feel more pressure, so also here, a gradual increase is always preferred over a big jump.
Have you scaled up your trading? If so, how did you handle it?

Mt. Gox applies for bankruptcy: Ars Technica reports Mt. Gox applied for bankruptcy protection in Japan, claiming debt of about $63.6 million, with assets of just more than half that. CEO Mark Karpeles reportedly appeared at a press conference bowed in contrition and apologized in Japanese. A bankruptcy supervisor will develop a restructuring plan for the company.
Tim Cook says Apple sold $1 billion worth of Apple TV devices: Reuters reports Apple CEO Tim Cook told investors at a shareholder meeting Friday that Apple sold $1 billion worth of Apple TV devices last year. Cook even got extremely close to telling a joke, for him, saying "It's a little more difficult to call it a hobby these days." Oh Tim, you kidder.
Netflix internal hackathon produces dream product: TechCrunch has a story about Netflix's internal hackathon producing some amazing mods for the video service. One monitors data from a fitbit to tell when you're asleep and pauses your show for you. Another let you build multiple playlists for a lean back experience. Radial was a faster input keyboard for use on game consoles. And Beam let visitors temporarily use your Netflix account on their devices, then logged them off when they left your house. Sadly Netflix noted that the hacks might never become official part of the Netflix product. Might. So you're saying there's a chance!

uscwaller pointed us to the story on TorrentFreak that Creative Commons co-founder Lawrence Lessig prevailed over Liberation Music and will receive damages in his fair use fight. In a talk on Fair Use in 2010, Lessig used a clip of people dancing to a song by Phoenix as an example. A video of the talk was taken down from YouTube after a DMCA notice was issued by Liberation Music, the band's label. Lessig fought the removal and sued Liberation Music. The two entities have settled and Lessig will receive an undisclosed sum for the damages the label caused with the wrongful takedown. Liberation admitted in a statement it agrees that Lessig was making fair use of the music.
uscwaller got a twofer in NFY today pointing us to the Wired Article about drone cargo ships. Rolls Royce is developing unmanned vessels to move the world's cargo around. Along with robots in the warehouse and self-deicing trucks, the entire supply chain could soon be automated and human-less.
Kylde submitted a T3 post about Virgin media upgrading the speeds of its 12.5 million UK customers. Those who have the 120Mbps package will get 152Mbps while those on the 30Mbps plan have been bumped up to 60 and those on the 60 plan bumped up to 100. Yeah that's right you just get more speed without asking. That's this ISP's response to people using more bandwidth. Well done Virgin Media.
And KAPT_Kipper submitted a GeekWire article about Amazon having more talks with record company execs about creating a streaming music service. Amazon already provides a cloud music locker but not a service like Spotify or Rdio. Recode's sources seem to think this time the talks are quite serious and a deal could get done.

Pick of the Day: Automatic
Automatic is like a fit bit for your car! It plugs into your car's ODB port and connects via BTLE to your smartphone (Android or iOS).
The app gives you feedback on your driving (I now know it costs me $5 in gas to get to work in the morning), saves where you park on a map so you don't get lost in the parking lot, tells you what's wrong when the check engine light comes on and will even call 911 for you if you are in an accident.
On top of all that, they've recently added iBeacon support (which doesn't mean a lot now, but in the future can do stuff like let you in and out of your parking garage or even pay at a drive-through apparently) and, as of today, IFTTT support (finally I can stop getting in trouble for forgetting to text my wife when I'm on my way home from work, or, alternatively, I can use it to do things like turn off the lights when I leave home.) – Dr. Karl, forever resident of BuzzTown.

DTNS 2180 – The Naked Truth
Patrick Beja is on the show and we discuss British intelligence looking at nude photos of Yahoo chatters, plus more net neutrality thoughts, and a very special birthday that made all of this possible. You have not guessed who it was, I promise.
Today's guest: Patrick Beja, host of RDVTech
British spy program 'Optic Nerve' captures Yahoo web chats, including nude images: The Guardian reports on documents obtained from Edward Snowden describing a UK GCHQ spy program called 'Optic Nerve' which ran from 2008-2010 for sure and was showing up on an internal wiki as recently as 2012. The program captured images from Yahoo chats, saving a still picture every 5 minutes. Analysts could only look at metadata in bulk searches but could get images if a username was the same or similar to targeted individual. In addition to testing facial recognition and feeding some data to the US NSA. the GCHQ was surprised to find a "number of people use webcam conversations to show intimate parts of their body to the other person." Around seven percent of the images included "undesirable nudity." The report did not estimate the amount of desirable nudity.
Google's Project Ara project to arrive as early as next year with $50 price tag: Time's Technologizer blog reports Google's Project Ara modular smartphone could arrive early next year priced at $50. That's the phone that has blocks you can plug in and replace to add or upgrade functionality. Google's Advanced Technology and Projects (ATAP) group reportedly will finish a functioning prototype within a few weeks.The $50 version would only have WiFi, but then you could always get more block later. The freemium model comes to hardware!
Boeing to make secure phone CNET reports on Boeing's dupe secure government and military phone: Yes Boeing is making a phone. Codenamed Black, it comes with loads of security features, dual SIM cards, a modular back for mission-specific needs like satellite communications or ultra-specific geolocation. Also any attempt to open the device would delete the data and software. The device won't be available to the consumer market and technical information on "Black" is to remain confidential or protected by non-disclosure agreements. Also we never had this conversation.

Hey Steven Strogatz, I hope you made a bet on your prediction that computer-assisted math solutions would surpass human comprehension. Josh sent us an email with a link to the iO9 article about a computer that has solved the longstanding Erdős discrepancy problem. The solution is as long as all of Wikipedia's pages combined and impossible for a human to confirm. The only way to check if it's right is to see if another computer attempting to solve the same problem comes up with the same answer.
KAPT_Kipper posted the TechCrunch article about Sony announcing it's shutting down 20 of its 31 retail stores in the US. Sony is busy offloading unprofitable parts of its business, even considering things like selling Sony Pictures, so this isn't a shock. The 11 stores to remain open are in California, New York, Florida, and Houston, Texas.
And tm204 noted the Computer World story about Apple's decision Tuesday that it will no longer issue security patches for OS X Snow Leopard. The last Snow Leopard security update came in September 2013. Snow Leoaprd was released in 2009. Apple generally only supports the newest and previous versions of its OS, but has supported Snow Leoaprd longer. Still. 19% of Macs were running Snow Leopard according to Net Applications data. Snow Leopard was the last version of the OS capable of running applications on the PowerPC processor.

Pick of the Day:
I always heartily endorse Writer, at writer.bighugelabs.com Its essentially an internet typewriter, a super stripped down word processor. By default its green text on a black background (takes me back to my DOS days), and when in full screen mode it gives the best distraction free writing experience I've ever had. It has basic features, word count and a word count goal percentage, along with online saving across their servers. There's a subscription option with some more advanced editing features and the ability to save to Google Drive/Dropbox, but the free version is all I've ever need. Every time I try NaNoWriMo its my go to.
Unprompted and hopefully not resented. Thanks

Today's guest: Sean Hollister, senior reporter at The Verge
Mt. Gox hit with federal subpoena: Ars Technica reports on the latest with Mt. Gox, the bit coin exchange that's been down for more than a week. Wednesday morning, CEO Mark Karpeles wrote a new post on the Mt. Gox website reassuring people that he is still in Japan working hard to find a solution to Mt. Gox's issues. The WSJ reports the US Southern District of New York has issued a federal subpoena to Mt. Gox. That court often deals with financial crimes. Japanese authorities say they are looking into the collapse themselves.

If passed by voters, Reed's ballot measure would invalidate a body of case law that suggests pensions once promised are a "vested right" that can't be diminished without equal alternative compensation.
That assumption is being tested in the courts right now by unions suing to overturn a Reed-sponsored ballot measure, approved by San Jose voters, that requires current workers to pay more for their pensions or switch to a less-generous plan for their remaining years of service. The benefits they accrue up to that point wouldn't be changed.
