Ilegitim
Romania, Poland, France 2015 / 89'
Adrian Sitaru remains faithful to the strategy that he used in his debut, Piknik (10th New Horizons). Like in that film, he presents a seemingly trivial incident that has far-reaching consequences. In Illegitimate, an ordinary conversation at dinner turns into a huge argument between family members. The younger representatives of the Anghelescu clan cannot forgive their father's unethical attitude during the communist era. It soon becomes clear, however, that while keen to account for the past, they have their own grave sins on their conscience. Although topics like abortion and incest come up in the story, the director is not trying to be sensational. Sitar also makes sure that his film does not turn into a flat farce or a tiresome psychological drama. Instead, he creates an on-screen world in which there is no place for passing easy judgments. Co-produced by Poland, the film's characteristic ambivalence was a hit at the festival in Berlin, where Illegitimate received a CICAE Art Cinema Award.
Berlin IFF 2016 - CICAE Award
Born in 1971 in Deva, Romania, Sitaru studied Computer Science and Film Direction. He earned his artistic chops working as an assistant to Costa-Gavras on Amen (2002). He has made a number of award-winning short films, the best known of which is Waves (2007). He made his full-length feature debut in 2008 with Piknik. He received the award for best director at the festival in Locarno for Best Intentions (13th New Horizons).

Death From Above / Murray A. Lightburn Commodore Ballroom, Vancouver BC, May 29
Photo: Taylor Ferguson
By Brayden Turenne
Death From Above, the dynamic duo of Jesse F. Keeler and Sebastien Grainger, descended on Commodore Ballroom, with blasts from the past, and revelling in where the explosive two-piece are today in their musical career.
As part of the band's current Heads Up! Is Now tour, which celebrates DFA's gruff-sounding roots of their 2002 demo, Heads Up, with the six songs being played in their entirety before tapping into the newer material of their subsequent three full-lengths.
The night's proceedings were a veritable retrospective on the evolution of DFA's sound, showing off how much the band have changed over the years, as well as how they have gratefully remained the same. Following the playthrough of Heads Up, the crowd was sentimentally bludgeoned with songs like "Trainwreck 1979," "Nomad" and "Freeze Me," among many others. The two Toronto punks definitely were not stingy with their time, coming back for a two-song encore with "Right On, Frankenstein" and a sped-up replay of demo track, "Dead Womb."
The night didn't begin with an explosion of noisy bass riffs and smashing drums, though. On this particular tour, Death From Above have recruited friend and Dears frontman, Murray A. Lightburn, as the opening act. Besides from being close friends with the band, it was later illuminated by drummer/vocalist, Grainger, that seeing Lightburn perform live was the precursor to his own drive to pursue a path in music. Thank you, Mr. Lightburn.
Murray Lightburn's opening set was a strange offset to the main attraction. A quiet acoustic folk set that, while very well performed, seemed to only pressurize the mounting anticipation for DFA's imminent arrival, which was even more lethal when contrasted with Lightburn's own performance.

Ukraine-Russia peace talks: Zelensky says next 24 hours are 'crucial'
Lesley Jennings 11 months ago 3 min read
Ukrainian and Russian officials arrived in The border between Ukraine and Belarus for peace talks that began at 6 a.m. ET on Monday, with President Volodymyr Zelensky warning on the fifth day of the invasion that the next 24 hours will be "decisive" for Ukraine's fate.
Last: The Ukrainian Interior Ministry said dozens of civilians were killed and hundreds wounded by missile strikes In Kharkiv, the city on the border with Russia that was subjected to the heaviest bombardment of the war. Ukrainian forces have so far been in control of the city of 1.5 million, the second largest in the country.
The Big Picture: Zelensky's office called for an "immediate cease-fire and withdrawal of forces from Ukraine" while several high-ranking Ukrainian officials went to the talks, but expressed little optimism that negotiations would lead to an end to the offensive.
What else happens: In his last speech, Zelensky called for Ukraine's immediate accession to the European Union – a day later European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen Ukraine is "one of us and we want them in it," he said.
Zelensky said 16 Ukrainian children were killed and 45 wounded during the war, while Russia suffered 4,500 casualties. International monitors have not verified these numbers.
Zelensky said he would allow the release of prisoners with combat experience to help defend the country and "compensate for their guilt."
Deputy Defense Minister of Ukraine Ukraine also claimed to have received "thousands" of requests from foreign volunteers to join a new "international legion" to fight Russia.

what are they saying: When I planned to become president, I said that each of us is the boss. Because we are all responsible for our state. To the beautiful Ukraine. "And now it so happened that each of us is a warrior," Zelensky said in his speech.
"I am confident that each of us will win."

While Russian forces continued their bombardment of Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities overnight, the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense reported Intelligence indicated that the attack had "slowed down".
A senior US defense official said Russia fired more than 350 missiles at Ukrainian targets, some of which hit civilian infrastructure to Reuters.
More than 500,000 refugees They fled to neighboring countries – including Poland, Hungary, Romania and Moldova – the The United Nations said.
The war – which appeared quieter last night than it has been on previous nights – could escalate dramatically if Russia gets military help from neighboring Belarus, which is expected to send troops to Ukraine on Monday, according to a senior US intelligence official. He told The Associated Press.

Race Report - 2012 Cookie Dash 5K
Race swag: A bright colored NF tech shirt and.....COOKIES!
Today´s race plan was an easy choice. This was the third time my ¨wife¨ Anya and I ran the Cookie Dash 5K. It still feels strange to call her my wife. After all, we had just gotten married six days earlier. I had paced her the previous two years and this year was to be no different. This was the first eyar that my thirteen year old son Mace ran this race as well. He had just come off his first High school JV soccer season and was ready to go. I basically told him to stick with us until he felt he needed to go faster or slower. Well, he left us behind after about one mile, but we kept him in sight for most of the race. Not bad for someone that barely runs for running´s sake these days. Just one more proof that soccer creates all around athletes:-)
Anya had had a great week of running and I was looking forward to helping her reach a new PR, even though she was convinced that a PR was not to be. We took off in the middle of a crowd of a bout 600 runners. I guess cookies at the finish line really attract large crowds;-) Hey, that´s why we come back every year. It was my goal to keep Anya running even splits, 8:30 min per mile for 3.1 miles. However, I told her we would be running 9 minute miles. She had had some really good training times and based on that, I knew she was selling herself short.
After about two miles, I could tell she was in much better shape than last year. She had been doing following a fairly strict cross training schedule along with her runs and that really helped her. She was still keeping up conversations compared to last year, when she barely wanted to nod in response to my ¨coaching¨. With about a quarter mile to go I told her to just leave it all out there and she did. Folks were cheering her on and I couldn´t have been happier for her. Her training paid off and a good result had her asking for more. To top it all off she finished third in her age group. What an accomplishment!
Mace was waiting for us at the finish line after having run his best race in a while. I couldn´t be prouder, smart and athletic, I wonder where he got that from;-)
Pacing my wife of 6 days to a new PR, what could be more rewarding:-)

Q: How to edit user profile in Django I'm trying to create an "Edit Profile" form in the fronted. What happens is that my form(i'm not 100% sure) tries to create a user instead of finding the current user and update his profile. So I think that's the issue. Checked many questions here but none was clear enough. The fields I'm trying to edit are email(to be checked if email already exisit), Name, user type, and password.
below is the code for forms.py
class ProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
    password1 = forms.CharField(label='Password', widget=forms.PasswordInput)
    password2 = forms.CharField(label='Confirm Password', widget=forms.PasswordInput)

    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ('full_name', 'active', 'admin','email','user_type')

    def clean_password2(self):
        # Check that the two password entries match
        password1 = self.cleaned_data.get("password1")
        password2 = self.cleaned_data.get("password2")
        if password1 and password2 and password1 != password2:
            raise forms.ValidationError("Passwords don't match")
        return password2

    def save(self, commit=True):
        # Save the provided password in hashed format
        user = super(ProfileForm, self).save(commit=False)
        user.set_password(self.cleaned_data["password1"])
        # user.active = False # send confirmation email
        if commit:
            user.save()
        return user

code for views.py
def profile(request):
    user = User.objects.filter(email = request.user)
    # form = ProfileForm(user.values().first())
    if request.method == 'POST' :
        form = ProfileForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            form.save(commit=True)
    form = ProfileForm(user.values().first())
    # print(user)
    context = {
    'object_list': user,
    'form': form
    }
    return render(request, 'userpanel/profile.html',context)

Thanks in advance

A: You didn't pass instance argument to the form. Without instance it will try to create new object. It should be like this:
form = ProfileForm(request.POST, instance=user)

Also you don't need to query user with this: user = User.objects.filter(email = request.user). Just add login_requred decorator to ensure user is authenticated and use request.user:
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required

@login_required
def profile(request):
    if request.method == 'POST' :
       form = ProfileForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)

A career politician walks a tightrope between ethics and ambition in this drama from filmmaker Pierre Schoeller. Bertrand Saint-Jean (Oliver Gourmet) is the French Minister of Transportation, a man who entered his career in public service as an idealist intending to use his position to help others and serve the people with honor. Years later, Saint-Jean has come to view politics as a matter of image and gamesmanship, and while he strives to rise above the more corrupt aspects of his profession, he's a man who often looks to how an action will benefit himself rather than the people. As Saint-Jean deals with the day-to-day particulars of his job, he's facing a larger issue -- a campaign to privatize France's train stations is afoot, and while Saint-Jean is convinced it's a bad idea that would have a negative impact for nation's rail system, he also believes who is perceived as the "winner" is just as important as what's the right thing to do. As Saint-Jean wrestles with the privatization issue, he's also reminded that he's neglecting his family as he confers with his assistant (Michel Blanc) and his working-class chauffeur (Sylvain Deble). The Minister (aka L'Exercice de l'Etat) received its world premiere at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival.

Laura Varela said that it was her experience growing up in a violent neighborhood that ultimately led her to work as a documentary filmmaker. Her journey from El Paso, Texas to the University of Texas at Austin to her offices in San Antonio where she most recently produced a documentary about Latino Vietnam veterans has been interesting.
But these experiences were not lost on Varela, as she told us, she grew up sensing that "something's not right," and so when she began to study Chicano history at UT that included documentaries, there was a big shift in her perspective.
Eventually she began to work in radio production and on film productions. Her desire to continue to do social justice work really took root in 1999 and her most recent production, "As Long As I Remember: American Veteranos" was first broadcast last year. We've previously discussed the importance of Latinos working on all levels in the media, and documentary films are no different because it is through these filmmakers that important historical and cultural experiences are highlighted, and hopefully understood.

Noize In The Attic Podcast - VINNE & CARMINE APPICE
Greg Schmitt of WESU's syndicated radio show Noize In The Attic recently spoke with drum legends Carmine and Vinny Appice. Together they discuss Carmine's history and renewed involvement with Vinnie Vincent, Vinny's relationship with John Lennon and much more!
Carmine: When I heard him with Vinnie Vincent Invasion, it wasn't the same Vinnie. It was like - I don't know what he was trying to be, like an Yngwie or something... He's beyond that. He's a much better player than that. He's like John Sykes. John Sykes can play all that stuff, but you don't play it all the time. You mix that up with a bit of blues and soul, and just great rock & roll like Jeff Beck or Clapton or those kind of guys. And he can play that stuff. So, when I heard that album, and the mix and guitar was was so loud you couldn't even hear the rest of the band, so I was a little disappointed in that album, ya know?
I said, 'You can still play like you used to play? Like I know you can play. Usually you don't lose it.' He goes, "No, I didn't lose it,' he said. 'I had a guitar in my hand every day; even when I was gone."
Vinny on playing with John Lennon: 'We're rehearsing, John walks in, watches us play, he sits down on a step... And he started hanging out with us. We're playing pool with him, and smoking joints and stuff. He always wanted coke, though. We didn't have coke... So we would up doing three videos with him … And then we did a live gig he asaked us to do. And then I found out a couple of years ago that was his last live gig. Ever.'

According to the statement, the reluctance was because the text option hasn't been fully tested and that staff needs proper training.
Because of that, "all citizens are urged to use the traditional method of calling 911 for all emergency services," per the statement from Lott, Holbrook and Jenkins.
When "Text to 911" is launched, it is promoted as an ideal way to report an emergency without speaking. That could benefit people whose life would be jeopardized by talking, or an alternative for those with hearing or speech impairments.
There was no word on when the service will be available.

Non-bank perplexed at ASIC offset warning
By Annie Kane
Firstmac has voiced surprise at ASIC's latest warning for non-bank lenders to provide consumers with detailed information about the nature of offset features on loan products, to ensure customers are not "misled".
With the increasing popularity of offset accounts (for example, non-bank lender Firstmac has said that approximately 55 per cent of its borrowers choose to have an offset redraw facility), ASIC recently issued a warning to non-bank lenders to ensure their customers are well aware of what offset features comprise.
As non-banks cannot accept deposits, the warning particularly focuses on highlighting that the offset products, such as offset redraw facilities, aren't covered by the government's financial claims guarantee should the lender fail.
A spokesperson for the commission said, "Non-bank lenders that offer mortgages with offset features are not 'authorised deposit-taking institutions' regulated by APRA.
"As a result, their offset redraw facilities are not likely to be covered by the government's guarantee, which covers bank deposits worth up to $250,000 if the lender were to fail.
"Non-bank lenders should provide consumers with detailed information about the nature of the loan product to ensure that consumers are not misled as to the product features."
Not a matter of concern for borrowers
However, a spokesperson for Firstmac has told Mortgage Business that the warning from ASIC is somewhat redundant.
"Non-bank lenders have been offering offset redraw facilities for decades, long predating the introduction of the government deposit guarantee.
"They continue to offer these facilities, just as banks have continued to offer redraw facilities on their accounts, which are not covered by the deposit guarantee.
"This is not a matter of concern for borrowers because they understand that at all times they have a negative balance with their non-bank lender."
The spokesperson added that if a lender were to fail, any extra money customers have put in their offset redraw facilities would "simply be deducted from the debt they owe the lender and their net position would be unaffected".
He added, "Offset redraw facilities are vital for non-bank lenders to provide real competition to the big four banks whose excessive market power is the subject of great public concern.
"It is clear from our website, from the context of the account opening process and the terms and conditions of our loans, that we are not a bank and that our offset redraw facility is not a deposit account."
Likewise, specialist lender Pepper has also highlighted that money put into its interest offset sub accounts is not considered a deposit, rather a repayment of principal, and is therefore not covered by the government guarantee. However, the loan principal has been repaid.
Mario Rehayem, managing director for Australian mortgages and personal loans at Pepper Financial Services Group, commented: "Since first offering the interest offset sub account feature 12 months ago, Pepper Money has seen approximately 40 per cent of customers take advantage of the feature.
"Pepper Money offers customers a 100 per cent interest offset sub account and visa debit card, which allows clients to reduce the interest payable on their home loan whilst having access to transaction facilities.
"To assist brokers in selling and explaining the feature to their clients, we provide a one page fact sheet on the account feature. In addition, we have a Help Centre article on our website for customers."

Pope Francis begins visit to Malta
Pope in Malta: Amid winds of war, a call for shared future of peace
Pope Francis is in Malta on the 36th apostolic journey of his pontificate. His first public event in the island nation was with the country's authorities and the diplomatic corps.
Pope Francis wishes that Malta, in the heart of the Mediterranean, may continue to foster the heartbeat of hope, care for life, acceptance of others and yearning for peace. Delivering his first public discourse on Maltese soil, addressed to the country's authorities and the diplomatic corps in the capital Valetta, he used the analogy of the compass rose, or "rose of winds" to encourage Malta and Europe on the path of peace, legality, respect for life and human dignity and open itself to people on the move.
Pope Francis who is on Saturday kicked off the 36th apostolic journey of his pontificate, April 2-3, referred to the four cardinal points of the compass rose to describe four fundamental influences for Malta's social and political life.
EU and peace
The wind that blows from the northwest comes from the European Union, "the single great family united in maintaining peace". For peace, which follows unity and rises from it, the Pope said, the Maltese people need to work together strengthening the shared roots and values of their society. Stressing that honesty, justice, a sense of duty and transparency ensure a sound social coexistence, he encouraged the island nation's commitment to legality and transparency in order to eradicate corruption and criminality.
God's creation
The Pope also recalled that the EU, committed to justice and social equality, is also in forefront of efforts to protect the larger home that is God's creation. "It must therefore be kept safe from rapacious greed, from avarice and from construction speculation, which compromises not only the landscape but the very future."
The protection of the environment and the promotion of social justice, he said, are the best ways to instil in young people a passion for healthy politics and to shield them from the temptation to indifference and lack of commitment.
Roots – the memory of the past
Speaking about the winds blowing from the west, the Holy Father said that Malta, an EU member, shares western lifestyles and thinking, such as values of freedom and of democracy. However, one must watch out against detachment from one's own roots. "Progress does not mean cutting one's roots with the past in the name of a false prosperity dictated by profit, by needs created by consumerism, to say nothing of the right to have any and every 'right'.
A sound development needs to preserve the memory of the past and foster respect and harmony between the generations, without yielding to bland uniformity and to forms of ideological colonization."
Respect for life, human dignity
The Pope further pointed out that the basis of all solid growth is respect for the human person, for the life and dignity of every man and every woman. He encouraged the commitment of the Maltese people to embracing and protecting life at every moment from its beginning to its natural end. This also includes the dignity of workers, the elderly and the sick.
Speaking of young people who follow the emptiness of mirages, he said they squander the goodness in them. These are the fruits of radical consumerism and indifference to the needs of others and the scourge of drugs, which suppresses freedom and creates dependence.
The south wind reminded the Pope about the many brothers and sisters from the poor densely populated south who come to the wealthy north in search of hope. While thanking Malta for welcoming migrants, he pointed out that migration is not a temporary situation, and brings with it the burden of past injustice, exploitation, climatic changes and tragic conflicts, whose effects are now making themselves felt.
Migration cannot be ignored by adopting anachronistic isolationism, which will not produce prosperity and integration. The growing migration emergency, which now includes refugees from war-torn Ukraine, he said calls for a broad-based and shared response. The Pope said, "The Mediterranean needs co-responsibility on the part of Europe, in order to become a new theatre of solidarity and not the harbinger of a tragic shipwreck of civilization."
Recalling that St. Paul, shipwrecked in Malta, was a man in need of assistance, the Holy Father said, "Other people are not a virus from which we need to be protected, but persons to be accepted."
Finally, the wind blowing from the east of Europe, the Pope said, reminds us of the dark shadows of war that have now spread. Without mentioning Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he said that invasions of other countries, savage street fighting and atomic threats are not grim memories of a distant past. "The icy winds of war, which bring only death, destruction and hatred in their wake, have swept down powerfully upon the lives of many people and affected us all. Once again, some potentate, sadly caught up in anachronistic claims of nationalist interests, is provoking and fomenting conflicts, whereas ordinary people sense the need to build a future that will either be shared or not be at all."
In the face of this challenge, the Pope urged all not to allow the dream of peace to fade." "Malta, which shines brilliantly in the heart of the Mediterranean, can serve as an inspiration to us, for it is urgent to restore beauty to the face of a humanity marred by war".
Evoking the image of the ancient beautiful Mediterranean statue of Eirene, holding in her arms Ploutus, wealth, he said it reminds us that peace generates prosperity, and war only poverty. Noting Eirene holding her child in her arms, he said "the presence of women is the true alternative to the baneful logic of power that leads to war". "We need compassion and care, not ideological and populist visions fueled by words of hatred and unconcerned for the concrete life of the people, ordinary people."
He also recalled noted Italian politician Georgio La Pira who after the devastation of World War II had raised his voice calling for the rule of moderation and universal fraternity against the exaltation of self-interest. "How much we need a "human moderation" before the infantile and destructive aggression that threatens us, before the risk of an "enlarged Cold War" that can stifle the life of entire peoples and generations," the Pope said. That "childishness", the Pope lamented, "has reemerged powerfully in the seductions of autocracy, new forms of imperialism, widespread aggressiveness, and the inability to build bridges and start from the poorest in our midst".
The Pope lamented great investments in weaponry and a massive trade in arms. The enthusiasm for peace, which emerged after the Second World War, has faded with a few powers seeking spaces and zones of influence. "In this way," the Pope warned, "not only peace but also so many great questions, like the fight against hunger and inequality are no longer on the list of the main political agendas."
The Pope urged the international community to return to international peace conferences, where the theme of disarmament will have a central place, where the enormous funds that continue to be destined to weaponry, may be diverted to development, health care and nutrition.
Looking to the east of Malta, the Pope's thoughts turned to the Middle East, especially Lebanon, Syria and Yemen, torn by problems and violence. "May Malta, the heart of the Mediterranean, continue to foster the heartbeat of hope, care for life, acceptance of others, yearning for peace, with the help of the God whose name is peace, the Pope urged.

Kuala Lumpur plays host to Asia Pacific edition of biannual International Forum on Quality and Safety in Healthcare
Brenda Lau, 11 Sep 2017
The Asia Pacific edition of the 22nd biannual International Forum on Quality and Safety in Healthcare was held recently at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre on 24 – 26 August 2017.
Last month, Kuala Lumpur hosted the Asia Pacific edition of the 22nd biannual International Forum on Quality and Safety in Healthcare, which is a collaborative event by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) and the British Medical Journal (BMJ). Bringing together over 1,000 healthcare professionals from over 35 countries, the three-day event was held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC). The forum boasted an intensive and insightful programme, featuring over 40 sessions and presentations delivered by more than 80 prolific experts, both local and international.
Designed in close partnership with regional strategic partners, the extensive programme promised to advance progress, recognise individual accomplishments—whilst discovering new pioneers and leaders, and inspire and instill fresh ideas—to improve the quality and safety of healthcare across the region.
The networking zone dedicated for delegates to connect and share ideas with one another.
It incorporated networking opportunities such as a nurses' meet-up, a speed networking session at dedicated areas and a forum networking challenge, which encouraged delegates to complete a set of networking tasks before the end of the event.
Poster stage sessions presented in specific themes were also held where authors delivered short presentations about their project and answered any questions from the audience. Video posters were also shown within the refreshment breaks at the poster stage to allow delegates to share their work to a wider audience.
Interactive engagement: The poster stage where authors delivered short presentations to, and answered questions from, the audience.
For easy navigation, the forum has introduced a comprehensive one-stop app that included the map, schedule, exhibitors and speaker list for the event. An in-app messaging feature was also included to allow delegates to connect with one another. In addition, speakers could upload their presentation slides, while the audience could add session notes within the app.
"The programme is comprehensive with something for everyone," said Dr Milton Lum, co-chair of the Programme Advisory Committee, in his welcoming speech. "The scales and complexities of improvement in healthcare demand new ways of learning and engaging far more people in avocations that are more applicable," emphasised Dr Lim, urging delegates to grab hold of the networking opportunities during this event to share and learn with one another.
Paradox events of under-development and urbanisation; the cause of rising rates of NCDs
The International Forum in Kuala Lumpur kicked off with a series of pre-conference events featuring experience day site visits—to showcase the state of healthcare in Malaysia and the innovative approaches taken to improve patient care—complemented with full day mini courses which aimed to transform healthcare and introduce quality improvement. The forum took it up another notch on the second day, witnessing the opening ceremony which was graced by the presence of The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah. In his opening speech, Sultan Nazrin raised alarm to the fact that the rates of non-communicable disease (NCDs), including heart disease, diabetes, respiratory illnesses and cancer, had increased considerably across the region in recent decades. (According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), South-east Asia now has the fastest rising NCD rates in the world.)
The forum, garnering more than 1,000 visitors, also witnessed Perak Ruler, Sultan Nazrin Shah officiating the event on 25 August 2017.
"From only around 40% in 1990, they now account for at least 60 – 70% of death and disease burden in the region," he remarked. Sultan Nazrin attributed the cause of the rates to the initial under-development of the infrastructure and workforce of countries within the region. He called for a major transition, including evolving into better equipped and more sophisticated systems to cater for long-term acute and palliative care to a growing population.
While recognising the marked improvements in health status in many developing countries, Sultan Nazrin also pointed out that the situation was now being undermined by deteriorating diets and greater exposure to other NCD risk factors.
"Urbanisation is a key aspect, being associated with various risk factors, including stress, pollution, smoking and poor diet. Increased urbanisation also contributes to higher levels of stress—due to modern work patterns, environmental factors such as pollution, and poverty. And the impacts of stress were seen in high rates of hypertension, as well as in rising rates of mental health problems," he explained.
Sultan Nazrin emphasised that greater efforts must now focus on preventative measures and addressing other aspects of the NCD epidemic. "These include the substantial vested financial interests in the continued consumption of unhealthy products such as tobacco, alcohol, processed food and soft drinks, as well as greater regulation as part of prevention," he added.
"Aim. Act. Achieve."
With a vision to elevate healthcare and outcomes for patients and communities, this year's theme puts forward the hope to further inspire delegates to aim high for quality improvement, to act together across professions and with service users, and to achieve real success in improving healthcare worldwide. Reiterating the theme Dr Lum suggested to "do that, to make a difference to our patients."
"Let us provide more care for our patients in this technological age. Let us move from "What is the matter with you?" to "What matters to you". Let us reach out, connect and engage our patients. And when we return home, scale out and spread the quality and safety programmes in your institutions," he elaborated.
Keeping in line with the theme, the programme was structured with five streams—building capability and leadership, population and public health, person and family-centred care, safety and quality, cost, value—which categorised the sessions and presentations across the three-day spectacle.
A plethora of experts from over 13 countries took to the stage and shared their experiences and research with other delegates. Comprehensively, the sessions allowed physicians, nurses and medical students to explore the multiple ways to strengthen the quality and safety of healthcare.
The top-down approach of putting patients first
Featured sessions included the guidance on how to apply quality measurement principles and methods to daily work, the discussion of the role of CEOs in putting patients at the centre of quality healthcare and debate on what is a good patient death, amongst others.
The session on the role of CEOs in patient-centred healthcare garnered a lot of attention, which was mostly attended by aspiring CEOs and CEOs of medical start-up companies. Panel speakers included Dato' Amiruddin Abdul Satar, President & Managing Director of KPJ Healthcare Berhad; Dr Tan See Leng, CEO & Managing Director of IHH Healthcare, and Ms Artirat Charukitpipat, Chief Operating Officer of Bumrungrad International Hospital, Thailand.

Citing from their own experiences, Dr Tan said that a healthcare professional's function "in terms of modus operandi is really to reach out to the patient and making sure that we can bring them the best clinical outcomes and offer them the best value-based healthcare."
He added that IHH's approach has always been working towards consensus. Instead of emphasising on investments in resources to increase hospital beds or hi-tech machines, "the notion has always been that hospitals have and always have been paying attention to patient centricity—and now family centricity—as we continuously strive in our never-ending quest to create a healing environment."
"Our strategies have always been to work internally and with all of our stakeholders to put the needs of our patients and their loved ones first," elaborated Dr Tan, adding that patients should always be put in the centre of quality improvement.
He also encouraged a "safe culture and a very active whistleblowing policy for constructive criticism"—as hospital systems are constantly evolving and need improvement.
Does good care include a good death?
(Left – right) Dr Lam Chee Leong, Dr Wang Yingwei and Dr Lai Siu Fai sharing their opinions and experiences of what encompasses a good patient death.
Another insightful session, featuring a panel of three speakers—Dr Lam Chee Leong, senior lecturer and palliative care physician from University Malaya; Dr Lai Siu Fai, clinical professional consultant from the Chinese University of Hong Kong; and Dr Wang Yingwei, Director General in Health Promotion Administration of Taiwan—sharing their opinions and experiences of what encompasses a good death. The session highlighted that end-of-life care is a neglected aspect of care across the world, even more so for Asian countries.
In view of the different perspectives—of what defines a good death—being held by patients, their families and the multidisciplinary team delivering care, all three speakers urged that rather than attempting to deliver a standard universal approach to achieve a good patient death—care needs to be "tailored and individualised" to cater for the needs of all parties.
"We are very ill-prepared for dying. We run away because it makes us feel very uncomfortable," said Dr Lam. "Generally, as doctors, we have to heal disease and illnesses; but, we also have to heal people and restore the kind of personhood to them," he added, citing a paper, by a group of researchers from University of San Diego—led by Dr Dilip Jeste—which discusses the themes of a 'good death'.
Dr Lam sharing the core themes of a good death from the paper written by a group of researchers from the University of San Diego.
Dr Lai and Dr Wang both emphasised that spirituality and being reconnected to religion was also very important to patients. Particularly for the Chinese, where and how they died was important, according to superstition.
"Ultimately, I think all healthcare professionals are responsible for end of life care to ensure good care and a good death," asserted Dr Lam.
The power of discontent from the perspective of a doctor-turned-patient
The event also featured four keynote sessions which focused on Malaysia's healthcare system, breaking the rules for better care, innovating new models for emerging markets, improving healthcare quality as a strategy and the power of a discontent as a patient and a healthcare professional.
Saving the best for the last, the forum closed with a keynote session by Dr William Tan, a neuroscientist, medical doctor from Harvard University, world record holder and Paralympian from Singapore.
Dr Tan emphasised on the importance of quality and safety of healthcare through the story of his life. After contracting polio at the age of two—because he "missed out on the two drops of polio vaccine" as Singapore did not implement the immunisation programme—he was paralysed from the waist down. Notwithstanding his disability, he has shown outstanding strength in overcoming adversities. A world record holder of six endurance marathons, Dr Tan found passion in running marathons via hand-cycling and is a triple gold medallist
Dr William Tan sharing his life story – enlightening the audience about focusing on the power of discontent, from the perspective of a doctor-turned-patient.
He likened the quality and safety of healthcare to his marathon journey, stating, "it is a journey that is long, arduous and has to be sustainable."
He realised that "winning medals, trophies or prize money should not be an end to itself. It should be a means to further goodness and to help people." Since then, he has devoted to championing and fundraising for needy causes worldwide, particularly for the cause of cancer—a cause he holds close to heart.
In 2009, Dr Tan was diagnosed with Stage 4 leukaemia, "making the doctor, the patient."
"I have looked after many cancer patients in the past, and I was not very excited about being a cancer patient—going through the same kind of treatment," explained Dr Tan, as he expressed his gratitude of having two caring oncologists, Dr Koh Liang Piu and Dr Benjamin Mow—who went out of their way to help him with his treatment.
"I was so touched by the fact that Dr Koh was willing to learn from the best and how he went about consulting with the best people around the world—cancer centres for example, the Mayo Clinic, Memorial Sloan Kettering, to name a few—on how to treat me, on how to modify a medicine cocktail to suit me," reminisced Dr Tan.
"It is all about the tailored medicine, and the new paradigm indeed, is very much customised medicine. The quality of healthcare is all about customisation," he added.
Drawing from that example, Dr Tan said there was no need for a special lesson to enhance the quality of healthcare. Instead, he reminded the audience of the basic lesson from medical school: To always put the patients first. MIMS

I'll update when I get the box, but so far I'm real impressed with the customer service response.
Loved the march box a ton! The body scrub was my fave. I'm always very pleased with every shipment.
The March Pause and Unwind Box was awesome! My favorite item of all was the lotion bar. It smells so good and was incredibly moisturizing. I really enjoy how each month they include a variety of items that really make me want to take time to practice some much needed self care.

Siemens takes LifeWorks to the channel
Nadia Cameron (ARN) 03 December, 2004 07:30
DNA Connect
Siemens is looking to develop its local channel to support the launch of its communications integration product, LifeWorks.
The LifeWorks suite is a real-time, IP-based platform designed to integrate all forms of communications mediums - from mobile phones to instant messenger - into one applications environment.
Siemens general manager of partners and resellers, David Healy, said the solution was designed to address the increasing need to collaborate IP network connectivity with other modes of communication. It is already being used in the US, and in the final stages of trials locally. The solution will be launched over coming months.
Siemens currently has 14 partners across Australia and New Zealand selling its HiPath IP network solution. These were largely traditional telecoms and voice specialists such as Commander, Communications Australia and Comtel, Healy said.
While keen to see these organisations bundle the LifeWorks suite into sales of HiPath, Siemens was now actively seeking systems integrators as key channel partners to bring the solution to enterprise and SMB organisations, he said.
"This solution will allow integrators to take customers up to the next level - a professional services level," Healy said.
The vendor was also looking to market the product through consulting firms, such as Accenture.
"For example, those organisations that undertake business transformation engagements with clients," he said. "LifeWorks could be used as an enabling tool from a project management perspective."
The LifeWorks suite can be deployed in three ways: across a carrier's infrastructure, as a managed service or in a self-hosted environment.
The software application has been designed on a Microsoft platform.
Resellers would be required to have strong integration skills and Microsoft technical competency, Healy said.
Siemens has worked closely with Microsoft to develop and trial LifeWorks, he said. The pair are now working on a range of joint marketing initiatives to promote both the Siemens brand and the new communications suite to the software giant's reseller partners. Both will also look into training modules based around the LifeWorks software development kit.
Trials of the suite as a hosted application were also now being conducted by Telstra, Healy said.
The telco is expected to bring its LifeWorks solution to market in the next couple of months.
Because it was based on open IP standards, LifeWorks could be deployed across any type of telecoms or network system, he said.
"It won't tie the channel to who they talk to about the product," Healy said. "They will be able to talk to other enterprise customers who have deployed non-Siemens solutions."
However, for those who choose to sell both LifeWorks and HiPath as a bundled solution, there would be opportunities to earn marketing funding and sales discounts, Healy said.
