Chicago’s theater companies have been inviting audiences to watch productions on line as a way to raise needed funds to stay in business while COVID-19 has shuttered stages and in-person experiences. Citadel Theatre has found a different, fun way (sort of like a movie drive in) to enjoy a program.
Museums and other Chicago destinations have also suffered financial losses from closed doors. Youngsters and their families have also been deprived of popular places to visit. To help with the latter issue, Mayor Lori Lightfoot is journeying out to some of the city’s museums in virtual field trips geared to the whole family. They have been fun and enlightening. So go on, take a virtual field trip with her.
Citadel Theatre, a Lake Forest-based equity production company, has found a new way to put on a theater experience in line with Sate and national guidelines. Audiences are invited to watch and hear one-hour matinee performances at the suburb’s Gorton Community Center Parking lot while sitting comfortably and safely in their cars.
Cabaret dates are June 13, 14, 20 and 21 at 1 and 3 p.m. at 400 E. Illinois Rd., Lake Forest.
Tickets are considered donations and must be bought in advance because of limited parking space. Entrance is on Illinois Road, exit is at McKinley Road. Community Center facilities (washrooms) will not be available.
For tickets and more information visit Citadeltheatre/cabaret.
Hit Play Chicago goes to the Art Institute
The world renown museum is the next stop on the city field trip series that visited the Shedd Aquarium, the Museum of Science and Industry, the Field Museum, the National Museum of Mexican Art and the DuSable Museum of African American History.
It’s a chance to visit (or revisit) a famous painting, hear about an upcoming block-buster exhibition and see works that might become favorites.

While the majority of custom motorcycle shops solely-focus on bespoke bikes, other operations boast more elaborate and diverse operations, with shops like Revival Cycles and Deus Ex Machina offering clothing and gear lines, amongst a myriad of other endeavors. Another one of these shops is BE UNIQUE, a French outfit founded in 2015 with a full apparel line, a customs shop in Bordeaux, and a full showroom in Pessac.
BE UNQIUE’s latest build uses a 1980 Honda CX500 donor, though the longitudinal V-Twin-powered scoot has undergone an extensive transformation. The suspension was upgraded via a mono-shock conversion and inverted forks off a GSX-R750 with red-anodized uppers. The half-liter OHV Honda also wears a tracker-style front number plate, a tank off a vintage Yamaha DT, and yellow auxiliary lights with painted shells, matching the tank and number plate that are now tacked to the build’s new crash bars. There’s also pod-filters and a bespoke exhaust system culminating in cans mounted under the swing-arm pivot. The one-off Japanese motorcycle now sees its rider straddling an aggressive and modern take on a perched bobber seat, with a with a four-piece geometric saddle with diamond stitching.

EAST LANSING, Michigan — The longstanding, complex conflict in Thailand’s southernmost region saw a brief period of peace during the pandemic when a unilateral ceasefire commenced. This allowed medical personnel to travel safely. Unfortunately, the cease-fire did not bring lasting peace. Insurgency in Thailand continues to grip the southernmost regions of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat.
What Is Insurgency and Why Is It Happening?
The unrest in Thailand’s Deep South is a result of a century’s worth of problems in the region. The current insurgency has been a conflict since the mid-1990s. The conflict has killed more than 7,000 people and injured many more. The insurgency in Thailand is a revolt the ethnic Malay Muslims began. They are pushing back against the Thai state. As natives to the region, they feel their voices go unheard.
The Borgen Project interviewed Don Pathan, an employee of the Asia Foundation. He said, “They [the Thai state]try to force the Malay to be Thai like everybody else.” He drew on America’s tribute to natives by naming helicopters, cities and states after chiefs and tribes. Thailand does nothing of the sort and largely excludes them from Thailand’s narrative.
“It’s a very ethnocentric policy, and for the Malay, they fought against it,” said Pathan. “That was the start of the armed insurgency.” For instance, even though different regions in Thailand speak different languages, when the government comes together or kids go to public school, they are forced to speak the central Thai dialect. Half of the school children in Thailand are taught in a different language than they speak at home.
How Does Economic Development Play a Role?
Pattani and Narathiwat are “the two poorest regions” in all of Thailand with poverty rates of 34.2% and 34.17%, respectively. Pathan called the southernmost region “dirt poor,” yet feels the underlying social problems that forced assimilation brings on are primary causes that are fueling the insurgency. Still, a 2017 peace survey showed that 49.8% of respondents felt it was poverty and unemployment in the region fueling this persistent unrest.
Many officials note the reasons for insurgency are complex and sensitive. Pathan says although “development is not the issue, it can be the answer.” While Thailand as a whole is not “underdeveloped,” there are still regions, such as the Deep South, that live in rampant poverty. However, over the past three decades between 1988 to 2018, Thailand has reduced poverty from 65% to under 10%.
To further progress the country, the Thai government created a National Strategy in 2018 with goals through 2037. There is a specific subsection for ensuring “safety and peace in Southern border provinces.” Furthermore, the government is trying to establish halal food production in the Deep South to increase revenue and jobs. And, a newly constructed airport called Betong International Airport in Yala welcomes more traffic.
How Will They Foster Peace in the Region?
In addition to economic growth, officials and scholars highlight the importance of several perspectives and healing mechanisms, adopting a more holistic approach to reducing this problem. “It’s about the Thai state and the Malai minority. So, when you throw money at them, it’s not going to make any difference,” Pathan said. Expanding the narrative to include the Malay in public discourse and acknowledging their struggles ought to be the primary focus. They have had to endure economic disparities and injustice for years and years.
Pathan calls for more strategic and specific goals to encourage education at all levels. “There are 3.9 million adults who are unable to read a simple sentence.” After such a long time living in conflict, it has taken a toll on a lot of citizens. Scholars emphasize the need for understanding what’s going on, why the Malay feel oppressed and why they chose to revolt. Additionally, they need to understand what needs to happen to put an end to this insurgency in Thailand. Without this integral understanding leading a holistic approach, the conflicts they face will continue to persist.
“The word human dignity is not there,” Pathan said. Communication will stimulate understanding and lead to peace. The Malay Muslims and Thai government must put their differences aside and communicate in a peaceful and progressive manner. At the end of the day, the rebels want to feel valid and accepted in their homeland. The power lies within the government to make this happen.

A ransomware attack is estimated to occur every 11 seconds. Last year, the largest ransom ever paid (40 million dollars!) was issued by an insurance agency. Data breaches are occurring at a rate never seen before, and all this malicious activity is being monetized and turned into a business. Faced with these problems that are only getting worse, how do we maintain a secure environment and protect our assets?
The Increasing Threat of Ransomware
United States Authorities reported that ransomware payments of approximately $590 million were made during the first six months of 2021, a significant increase compared to the $416 million reported for the whole year of 2020. With the alarming increase of complexity and volume of attacks, the US department of Homeland Security confirmed that ransomware is a major threat to national security. 2022 will see both an increase in the number of ransomware attacks along with more avenues being exploited to inflict an attack. Ransomware-as-a-Service kits are now being bought and leveraged by unexperienced cybercriminals to deploy undetectable attacks across multiple paths.
A few weeks ago, a customer went through a data loss event. When we hopped on a call to discuss the issue, they said “I guess now is a great time for us to see if our DR plan really works.” Though we can happily say they recovered their data easily, during an event is not the time to “see if it really works.”
It’s not whether if you “should” move to the cloud or “when” you move to the cloud, but WHY. A vast majority of enterprises are already moving to the cloud, but for smaller enterprise environments, or the SMB, the question of “why” is still being asked. Here is a great 90 second video from the experts at Zerto that discusses the 3 main advantages as to WHY business should take advantage of the cloud:

Listen to article
In this article an attempt has been made to explore how the dynamics of Indo-Bangladesh relations were navigated by the stewardship and distinct orientation of PM Narendra Modi ever since his government came to power in 2014 with an overwhelming popular mandate that put an end to the previous phase of weak coalition at the centre.
From 2014-15 onwards Indian foreign policy started acquiring a new confident tone which was evident in the presence of all the leaders of the SAARC countries to his inauguration. Prime Minister Modi himself gave a call that his priority would be neighbourhood first. It set in motion a new spirit of optimism that perhaps major unresolved issues in South Asia would be addressed very soon.
The Land Boundary Agreement (LBA) was the first major milestone that set the ball rolling. The issue remained unresolved for more than six decades of India’s independence. But Modi made it possible by getting the two sides together. The LBA was like opening up a new chapter in India Bangladesh relations. India and Bangladesh mutually agreed to exchange a host of enclaves that remained as an intractable issue feeding a mutual tug of war between India and the Government of East Pakistan, later Bangladesh. The Indian side showed flexibility and sacrificed more land than its smaller neighbour in order to arrive at the historic agreement in which the credit obviously goes to the leadership of Modi.
Secondly, if anything stands out in Modified Indian foreign policy since 2014 it is the distinct thrust towards economic growth and regional prosperity through infrastructure development and connectivity. This is the key to success that India seeks to achieve and share the benefits of with its neighbours such as Bangladesh. Hence India’s initiatives have been twin tracked, to put emphasis on various aspects of mutual connectivity through sea ports, railway and even through air travel routes. At the same time, we have seen that even when India became a little disillusioned with SAARC, her eagerness towards BIMSTEC, BBIN, BCIM and similar multilateral forums included Bangladesh. It is now clear that under Modi, a very energetic policy of cooperation has been put in place with Bangladesh which incorporates on one hand our border management based on what External Affairs Minister Jaishankar recently termed as a “no-crime-no-death border” and on the other hand, visualises the implementation of a number of projects like Special Economic Zones, Integrated Check Posts, Railway links and freight corridors.
In a recent take of Dhrubajyoti Bhattacharjee of ICWA on March 23, 2021 it has been stated that “while inaugurating the Maitri bridge on March 9, 2021 PM Modi stated that such infrastructure development was opening up more gateways for Northeast India with the rest of India through Bangladesh”. Besides, India’s development assistance to Bangladesh ‘for implementation of development projects during the 2014-2018 period is at the level of $4.5 billion’. It is important given the impressive rise of China that is breathing on the neck of India.
Thirdly, If India wants to see her relations with Bangladesh thrive she needs to empathize with the latter’s persistent endeavour to have more river water. It is a problem which again is partly attributable to China and its vigorous policy of diverting the flow of Brahmaputra while ruling out the concerns expressed by the Indian side. We need to find an amicable solution for fair distribution of the water of Teesta which is considered as a lifeline in the northern part of West Bengal. Both sides are also trying to agree to terms of negotiations for a meeting of the Joint River Commission.
Fourthly, if any issue in particular has cast adverse effects on India Bangladesh relations it is related to illegal infiltration of Bangladeshi citizens into India through porous borders. Such an inflow of refugees including Rohingya immigrants could pose a threat to India’s national security’. So it has nothing to do with the communal factor.
Fifthly, India under Modi gave Bangladesh a huge assistance in terms of Covid vaccines and India’s SAARC Emergency fund was also a testimony of our benevolent attitude to Bangladesh. Now when the second wave of Covid Pandemic has arrived and begun to strike India and Bangladesh, During the PM’s 26th March visit to Bangladesh for the first time after a nation-wide lockdown started from March 24th 2020 we saw that apart from carrying out official engagements and attending the formal celebration of the golden jubilee of the country’s independence and the centenary Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rehman’s birthday, India supplied many doses of Covishied as a charity.
Sixth, while laying emphasis on the personality cult at the heart of our analysis we need to put the historic struggle in East Pakistan in the right perspective. Therefore if we delve deep we would see that the struggle in East Bengal did not begin as a planned nationalist movement for liberation from Pakistan. Rather it was a historical conjuncture of events in the late 1960s which lent the popular mobilization in East Bengal an anti-imperialist character vis-à-vis the Pakistani regime and armed forces.
Today however what is important is not only reviving the historic memory and bask in nostalgia but more pertinently to put focus on developing the Regional Value Chains (RVC) which according to Sreeradha Datta, Pratim Ranjan Bose and Shaquib Quoreshi “would bring transformational change in the regional trade and investment paradigm” in South Asia. According to them this is the current challenge because “the intra-regional trade in South Asia is less than 3%” and Covid has rendered it even more difficult to counter the economic slowdown. To explain the point the three scholars Datta, Bose and Quoreshi cite India’s case, noting that “India has been able to participate in a limited way into the global value chains in some items like gems and jewellery, automotive parts and services but has not been able to develop any Regional Value Chains in many products. Nevertheless, between India and Bangladesh, the government to government cooperation between India and Bangladesh has been flourishing even during the COVID-19 crisis. In fact a new water transport facility was inaugurated recently with Bangladesh connecting it with Tripura in the Northeastern part of India but disruption in cross border trade between the two countries could not be entirely avoided due to the COVID-19 crisis”.


A midday metro robbery last weekend left a local restaurant filled with terrified customers and employees.
It happened on Sunday at the 72nd and Lake Street McDonald's at 12:28 p.m.; not the time or place anyone expected to see a trio of robbers.
Two armed men, with their faces covered, ran in, displayed a weapon and took one of the managers to the back of the store. The robbers were heading for the safe and they did grab cash but in their haste, left some of it behind.
The third man, a lookout, kept watch on the front door. A customer with his child tried to leave but was ordered back. He was forced to sit through the robbery with his hands up.
Robin Griffith heard about the crime and she had been in that store not long before it happened.
"I was there about an hour before and was with my four-year-old son," she said. "My first thought was I'm never brining my kid in this area again. My second thought was I'm glad nobody got hurt."
Kim Black works in the area and told us, "My concern is for people who live in the neighborhood. Cars getting broken into. You don't know if they're gonna rob, break-in a house as well. I've been working in the area for about eight years. This McDonalds has been robbed several times."
Robin sees the crime as a sign on the times in the metro.
"I think the crime here in Omaha just seems to be getting worse and worse," she said. "That, overall, kind of concerns me."
Police are still looking for the robbers. They believe they got away in a silver Chrysler. If you know anything about the crime you're asked to call police.

Britain’s gardening habits may be about to undergo a revolution, thanks to Honda’s cutting-edge lawn-mowing robot that’s set to earn its stripes.
Honda’s Miimo is an autonomous android that may sound like something out of a sci-fi movie, but you can buy one today. And that’s great news for gardeners, as research carried out by the Japanese company showed that 40% of lawn-mowing Brits would like a green-fingered robot to help keep their lawn areas nice and neat.
According to a YouGov survey carried out for Honda, four in 10 people would love a robot to mow their lawn. And what would they do with the time it would save them? Well, 50% of garden-owning Brits would spend more time outside.
People also said they would enjoy more time reading, exercising or spending time with their families, meaning a Miimo could be a great tool not only for the garden, but for family harmony and self-betterment too.
And that’s where Honda comes in, with the innovative Miimo. The Miimo uses the latest advanced autonomous and automated technology to carefully follow the contours of your garden, mulching the grass cuttings as it goes.
Unlike a human being, it’s also happy to mow the lawn in any weather conditions, all year round, meaning that once you’ve introduced Miimo to your garden, you’re simply left with a neatly manicured lawn.
The robot has a discreet docking station that you can locate anywhere in your garden for it to recharge, while the Apple and Android-enabled app HRM3000 version allows you to set grass length, frequency of cuts and even a monthly timer. It also has child and pet recognition monitors, ensuring the safety of all garden users remains uncompromised.
Steve Morris, Head of Power Products at Honda (UK) said: “Mowing the lawn might not be as unpopular as doing the washing up or putting the bins out, but this survey also showed that almost 40% of British gardeners (39%) spend more than half-an-hour each time they cut the grass – so it’s certainly one of the most time-consuming.
“Our research also shows that gardening remains one of the country’s most popular hobbies, and with Miimo taking care of the most demanding task, that leaves Britain’s green-fingered gardeners free to enjoy the more creative side of gardening while Honda keeps the grass neat and tidy.”

Naxos CD 8557812 Shostakovich’s Unfinished Quartet, dating from the early 1960s, is a substantial portion of what was initially meant to be the first movement of his Ninth String Quartet, but was set aside. Completed by composer Roman Ledenyov using the composer’s manuscripts, the movement (Allegretto, Eb Major) has now been published in a performing edition by DSCH. Already performed in Europe, the Unfinished Quartet awaits its American premiere.
Naxos marks the centenary with two new CDs. The Seattle Symphony and music director Gerard Schwarz hosted a Shostakovich birthday festival during which Naxos released Seattle’s recording of The Execution of Stepan Razin and October, along with the Five Fragments. Naxos has also produced the historic volume Dmitry Shostakovich: A Portrait. The 2-CD set is a collection of 26 tracks featuring the composer performing his own works, as well as an excerpt from a 1941 radio address.
Our rental library has acquired new performing materials from Symphonies 10 and 13, prepared by Internationale Musikverlage Hans Sikorski.

When exploring levels, the game plays like a fairly standard third-person run-and-gun adventure. But when Vincent engages the enemy, the camera shifts to a Resident Evil 4 -style "behind-the-shoulder" view, and the controls change to FPS-style aim-and-shoot. (In fact, gamers disenchanted by the default DualShock 2 control scheme can simply plug in a USB keyboard and mouse.)
Most of the game's complexity comes in the form of weapon management. Vincent can customize up to three guns with hot-swappable stocks, barrels, and scopes. He can also attach pendants, charms, and Materia which can open up elemental attack spells, improve firing rate and accuracy, and perform a variety of other tweaks, as well. Unlike most shooters, your weapons start out extremely slow and inaccurate, so frequent upgrading is a must if you hope to survive.

Being able to exercise empathy in healthcare depends on the individual healthcare practitioners and on the environment in which they work.1 2 It is, therefore, important to move away from an account of empathy that is only understood as a skill or virtue of the individual practitioner, and develop a new, broader account of healthcare-relevant empathy that encompasses healthcare systems and their role. In this paper, we develop and defend such an account by discussing: (1) Conditions for empathetic interaction between healthcare professionals and patients at the micro level. (2) Macro-level/meso-level governing policies that allow healthcare professionals to develop and exercise empathy, and patients to benefit from it.
Healthcare professionals are expected to have the right technical skills, medical knowledge and expertise, and to be empathetic, compassionate and trustworthy; and this is reflected in the training and education they receive. Yet numerous studies and reports demonstrate a decline in empathy among healthcare professionals.3–5
Exercising empathy in healthcare depends on the individual healthcare practitioners and on the environment in which they work.1 2 It is, therefore, important to develop a broader account of healthcare-relevant empathy that encompasses healthcare systems and their role, in addition to the skill or virtue of the individual practitioner. In this paper, we develop and defend such an account by discussing: (1) Conditions for empathetic interaction between healthcare professionals and patients at the micro level. (2) Macro-level/meso-level governing policies that allow healthcare professionals to develop and exercise empathy, and patients to benefit from it.
Empathy as a professional skill and virtue
The medical profession does require technical expertise, and the ability to take the best decisions and recommendations with reference to, and in consultation with, the patient. This means that the skill set required for healthcare professionals in order to provide good care is a combination of scientific knowledge, technical aptitude, and affective qualities or virtues such as compassion and empathy.
It is frequently noted that paternalistic models of care fail to acknowledge the patient’s autonomy. The role of the healthcare professional in the patient-centred model is to present information to the patient, and to work with the patient to devise a plan of care that best fits her needs and values.6 In order for the nurse or physician to be able to propose appropriate care pathways, they need to engage with the patient and understand the situation from the patient’s perspective. While shared decision making has been held up as a corrective to paternalism, its account of the relationships between clinicians and patients remains thin. Knowledge of a patient’s values and preferences must be informed by an appreciation of their full personhood, and clinicians should also be able to express health-related values and preferences (and, one hopes, virtuous conduct) relevant to their professional identity. Thus, relational models of care have been proposed as a further corrective, acknowledging the partnership of patient and clinician based on mutual recognition of personhood.6 7
Qualities such as empathy and compassion are central in the relational model of care.8 Empathy is the ability to identify, understand and share another person’s feelings and perspective, while maintaining a self-other distinction.1 This means that the empathiser, although able to understand the other person’s situation and feelings, does not mistake their feelings as his or her own. The understanding of another person’s situation motivates feelings of compassion and the desire to help.9
Empathy is associated with a number of positive outcomes in healthcare, both for patients and healthcare professionals. For example, empathy can lead to greater patient satisfaction, trust and better adherence to treatment, as well as improved emotional health, symptom resolution, improved physiological measures and better pain control.10 11 Healthcare professionals also experience the benefits of empathy. Greater empathy can protect them from distress and burn-out and help them build better communication links with patients.12 13 Professional bodies list empathy and compassion among the skills and attitudes a healthcare professional should possess.14 Medical schools responsible for training the next generation of healthcare professionals screen students for empathy at the admissions stage.15 16 They also dedicate teaching time for the development of empathy and compassion as fundamental professional skills.17
Empathy is typically described as a cognitive and affective trait.12 18 Moral psychology and theory of mind experts have investigated ways in which empathy can be developed. Having experiences and interactions with a wider variety of individuals, finding oneself in different circumstances, and using imagination can help people understand situations from another perspective.19 Courses that seek to widen the social, moral and psychological experiences of students can help hone and foster skills of empathy and compassion.20 Yet, having good empathy skills is not enough for the expression of empathy. Expressing empathy also requires moral conviction, intention and orientation, akin to that required for the development and exercise of virtues. According to Aristotle, in order for a person to acquire virtues, she needs to want to do what is good (kalon) rather than what is not good, shameful or ugly (aischron). As Tong notes, people who engage only their cognitive capacities may be good at analysing how to achieve a certain goal, but are quite poor at determining whether achieving this goal is good or of value.21 The expression of empathy, therefore, as a professional skill and virtue requires the engagement of both cognitive and affective capacities as well as the intention and desire to do what is good. Teaching and learning, as well as habituation through lifelong reflection, action and relationships have been suggested as ways to promote empathy and compassion among healthcare professionals.22
Barriers to empathy
Despite the value and importance of empathy and compassion in healthcare, in recent years there has been a notable decline of empathy among healthcare staff. Studies have followed the loss of empathy among medical students as they move through their years of training,23 empirical studies have demonstrated the low levels of empathetic engagement in clinical settings,24 25 and reports following care malpractices have highlighted a deficit of empathy in current medical practice.4 26 The development of courses teaching empathy, as mentioned above, has been a reaction to such acknowledgements of the decline of empathy in healthcare. Healthcare educators and institutions feel that they have to intensify their efforts to promote healthcare values such as empathy and compassion. Consequently, a number of new teaching techniques and evaluation methods have emerged to measure and monitor the effects of empathy teaching on the exercise of empathy on the ground, in clinical settings.17 27–29 Despite this increased attention on teaching empathy, studies still demonstrate that upholding these professional moral standards in practice is neither straightforward nor easily achieved.25 30
The reasons attributed to empathy decline in healthcare practice most often move beyond individual failings. It is not innate callousness or inability to engage with others that, in the majority of cases, leads to the absence of empathy and compassion in the therapeutic encounter. The factors most often cited include long working hours, understaffing, inability to spend sufficient time with patients, increased pressure to meet operational targets and increased workload.1 25 Professional bodies and institutions have responded to such findings by highlighting the value of empathy and compassion, and by coming up with plans to address the problem. For example, in the UK following the Francis Inquiry, which investigated failures of care at Mid-Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust in 2013, the NHS created a new strategy intended to develop the culture of compassionate care, and outlined six areas of action, including measuring impact and embedding care values into effective training and recruitment strategies for staff.31
The majority of the interventions for the enhancement of empathy are often directed towards individuals. Whether through effective training and recruitment in medical schools or by helping existing staff develop skills to make ‘every contact (with patients) count’, the locus of attention has been the individual healthcare practitioner. This may be because, as mentioned above, empathy is perceived as an individual characteristic, or personal virtue that professionals are expected to demonstrate in their practice. When professionals fall short of this expectation, those in charge often look to the individual and try to identify reasons why that person might have failed to adhere to the established moral professional standards: Is it a knowledge deficit problem? Is it a personal moral shortcoming? Is it that the individual involved lacks resilience and cannot cope with the pressures of professional life? For each one of these problems, an answer is developed, such as mindfulness courses to help individual healthcare professionals cope with their high-pressure profession.32 33 Yet, focusing on the individual has meant that other factors that contribute to the decline of empathy in practice are often sidelined or ignored.
Empathy and the role of systems
Studies have explored the impact of empathy training on the delivery of care, as well as how courses on resilience and mindfulness can help address the perceived deficit of empathy. However, there is one issue that, although acknowledged, is rarely explored. This is the role systems play in facilitating or impeding individuals’ efforts to behave in a way consistent with their professional values. A very broad approach to this issue is captured by the idea of a caring institution,34 and the suggestion that institutions ought to manifest empathetic concern for all people and ‘for those who promulgate, maintain, or participate in them’.35
The context and structure in which practitioners operate play an important role in their ability to act in certain ways, as well as contributing to their beliefs about how they ought to act. It is therefore important to ‘ensure that our institutions facilitate the formation and preservation of justified morally relevant beliefs (p. 110)’.36 One way that institutions can influence the moral beliefs and actions of individuals is by creating conditions that promote or incentivise certain practices and reinforce the holding of specific viewpoints. In the case of empathy and compassion in healthcare, a system that rewards processing patients quickly to meet operational targets, or rewards healthcare personnel for focusing on the illness rather than treating the patient holistically would reinforce the belief that skills such as empathetic engagement are not valuable or important and therefore ought not be prioritised. As O’Neil notes: ‘performance indicators have a deep effect on professional and institutional behaviour. […] If waiting lists can be reduced faster by concentrating on certain medical procedures, hospitals have reason to do so, even if medical priorities differ. Perverse incentives are real incentives (p. 55)’.37
Even if empathy is understood as a virtue rather than a skill, if the environment in which healthcare practitioners operate is not supportive of the expression of such a virtue, it is less likely that individuals operating in this environment will have the opportunity to develop it.38 It is through habituation that we acquire virtues, but without opportunity or space to practice such virtues, habituation is stifled and moral development hampered.
Empathetic healthcare systems
Institutions and systemic structures play an important role in the expression, practice and habituation of empathy and compassion in healthcare. Although their role and influence has been acknowledged,4 the general tendency to regard empathy and compassion as merely professional skills or personal virtues has directed the focus on the individual rather than on systems and structures. We therefore propose that the notion of empathy is extended to include moral agents other than individuals; in this case systems and institutions. This way, attention can be directed to the ways in which systems and institutions can express and support empathy. It falls outside the remit of this paper to argue the reasonableness of considering collectives as distinct moral agents to which moral characteristics can be attributed; but this position has been defended elsewhere.39
We define empathetic systems or institutions as ‘systems and institutions that are structured and organised in such way as to create conditions that facilitate empathetic interactions in a non-arbitrary way throughout the whole service’. We distinguish between institutions and systems by referring to the former as distinct organised units of healthcare provision within a jurisdiction/nation, and the latter as the overall organisation of healthcare service within a jurisdiction/nation. Below, we present some preliminary thoughts on the organisational structures that could support the development and establishment of empathetic systems and institutions.
In order to investigate how healthcare systems can facilitate the practice of empathy on the ground, it is useful to distinguish among several levels of decision making, such as macro level, meso level and micro level.40 At the micro level, encounters between healthcare professionals and patients take place and clinical decisions are made. At meso level, decisions about the daily organisation of distinct healthcare institutions are made, while macro decisions concern the political organisation of institutions that make up a jurisdiction’s/nation's healthcare system. Macro decisions influence meso decisions, which in turn constrain conditions for clinical encounters and decision making at micro level. In this way, an empathic healthcare institution depends on a healthcare system governed by empathy-promoting political goals and decisions to facilitate empathic interpersonal interaction in a non-arbitrary manner.
Tronto argues for the importance of paying attention to the politics of care, in the form of power, purpose and particularity, as a way of building not just care institutions but caring ones.34 Recognising power in care-relationships and allowing political deliberation of interpretations of needs and the purpose of care, are also relevant elements for an analysis of how systems can impact on empathy. In general, how the purpose of the care and thereof derived needs for care are defined will impact on the conditions for assessing needs presented in the clinic including who is entitled to empathy and who is not. Furthermore, who is, within a decision-making hierarchy, delegated the authority to make these definitions can also influence the definitions and in turn the conditions. For example, if these definitions are made by politicians outside the institutions and without any deliberation and negotiation with healthcare personnel, they can end up dictating too narrow ideas of the purpose of care and a too limited set of interpretations of needs. Healthcare personnel can judge this unacceptable based on their caring-for relationships with patients and their hands-on experiences that might create a sense of solidarity and aversion of social injustice. A healthcare system that aims to provide adequate and empathic care, must therefore be self-reflexive regarding its own conditions of power. Moreover, it must cater for negotiation with the public, including those who are implementing the service, of what counts as needs and the purpose of care. Addressing power dimensions of care institutions emerges as a crucial self-regulating condition that in turn accommodates conditions for empathy.
Structuring empathetic healthcare systems
Healthcare systems around the world are organised in different ways, reflecting sociopolitical, cultural and economic attitudes and beliefs. Some countries are treating healthcare as a basic good, basing access to healthcare on need rather than ability to pay, whereas others consider healthcare as a commodity to be subjected to market forces and rules, with many variations in between these two extremes. Different systemic structures could be characterised more or less empathetic depending on how they meet people’s care needs,35 and on how they invite those operating within them to consider and engage with each other. Healthcare systems that differentiate on patients based on income, occupation, race, gender, country of origin or immigration status, and so on, invariably create in-groups and out-groups, and thus appear more caring and empathetic towards some individuals rather than others. Also, by creating these different groups, they ‘other’ people and introduce boundaries between groups. We know that it is easier for one to be empathetic towards people she considers to be like her or part of her in-group, than people who are dissimilar to her or outside the group. Legislators concerned with developing fair healthcare systems should be cognisant of the effects healthcare system structures can have on the ability of the system to be empathetic and meet people’s care needs.35 They should try to design systems that encourage and acknowledge people’s commonality and interdependency, rather than systems that reinforce feelings of otherness, and boundaries between individuals and groups.41
Creating conditions for empathetic interaction between healthcare professionals and patients
Deeper research is required in order to ascertain all the ways in which healthcare institutions and systems can promote or hinder the practice of empathy on the ground. However, current studies have already highlighted a number of factors which serve as barriers to empathy, including: increased operationalisation of care provision, increased focus on targets and protocols, understaffing, isolation of medical from social care, and systemic structures and practices that impede continuity of care.4 25 30 42 An empathetic healthcare system would need to actively reassess its priorities and structures in order to eliminate such adverse and limiting factors. Rethinking the indicators used to assess quality of care might be one way to achieve this.
In addition, it is important to acknowledge that institutions do not exist in isolation. Institutions might adopt rules and structures that faction as barriers to empathy not merely through their own incentives. Rather, institutional incentives are embedded in larger systems, often political systems, which determine the goals which themselves incentivise systems further downstream. To take one example, in the US healthcare system, reimbursement is provided for medications and procedures but not for interventions which address social determinants of health or emotional needs. It stands to reason that empathy is made more difficult when larger structures do not incentivise it, even if systems and institutions further downstream make such efforts.
A challenge, however, is that promoting empathy is not the only desired goal of macro-level, governing policies that are shaping institutions and framing the clinical encounter. Organising cost-effective and fair healthcare services, for example, are reasonable macro-level goals of healthcare systems that might appear to conflict with the aim of ensuring conditions for empathy. If such goals are implemented regardless of its impact on empathy, they can create tensions when introduced into institutions and clinical care between empathy and the other values they are set to promote (eg, cost-effectiveness). Institutional budget requirements can, for example, lead to understaffing that in turn constraint the conditions for empathy. Thus, an overall aim for an empathetic healthcare system would be to design a comprehensive set of macro-level policies that are sensitively constructed to avoid hampering healthcare workers' opportunities for developing the ability to exercising empathy at the micro level.
Introducing policies that allow healthcare professionals to develop and exercise empathy
It is not reasonable for healthcare institutions and systems to require that their staff behaves empathetically, without paying attention to and creating structures and policies that permit the development and flourishing of empathy.1 Healthcare institutions need to demonstrate care and empathy towards the healthcare professionals serving under them. For example, they should help staff develop resilience in the face of the emotional labour of providing high quality empathetic care, tend to their psychological and emotional well-being, and also protect them from conditions of overwork, underpay and unfair treatment that leads to burn-out and feelings of being undervalued.
Also, attention towards empathy and the importance of achieving it on the micro level should be explicitly stated as a priority goal for healthcare systems and built into all governing instruments, including in measuring, assessing and evaluating strategies. In addition, providing empathic care should be an explicit aim of all healthcare professions. Macro-level decisions can also demand that healthcare personnel on the top of the hierarchical order are held responsible for ensuring and maintaining focus on empathy in the clinic and for facilitating easily accessible channels for the reporting of conditions that hamper empathy.
Considering organisational structures that render the healthcare system empathetic
Our suggested definition of an empathic healthcare institution/system above emphasises the importance of systems and institutions to be structured and organised in such a way that they create conditions for empathetic interaction between healthcare professionals and patients ‘in a non-arbitrary way throughout the whole service’. A system is not empathic if only one group of healthcare professionals works under conditions that allow them to foster empathy in the service they provide, if only some institutions are organised with empathy in mind, or just one phase of the care pathway leaves room for healthcare personnel to demonstrate empathy. The empathy of a system is reflected in the overall strategy of meeting all healthcare needs empathetically throughout the system.
In order to realise systems as comprehensively and consistently empathic, empathy must be intentionally facilitated as part of all areas of the system a user may encounter. A substantive way of achieving this might be to follow the Levesque et al user access framework to identify areas where empathy can be directly experienced by a patient.43 According to Levesque access to healthcare should be centred around five dimensions: (1) Approachability. 2) Acceptability. (3) Availability and accommodation. (4) Affordability. (5) Appropriateness. Following this framework an empathic healthcare system or institution would fulfil the follow conditions: First, such a system or institution must be accessible to anyone with a healthcare need, independently of other characteristics (eg, legal status). Second, the services provided must be acceptable to all, irrespective of cultural and social backgrounds. Third, services should be able to accommodate patients’ actual needs and living conditions. Fourth, they must be affordable, to avoid allowing arbitrary conditions, such as individual wealth, to determine care. Fifth and last, the provided service must be appropriate in terms of healthcare providers demonstrating empathy, such that patients are able to engage with their caregivers. All of these dimensions—in addition to care for the conditions of employees to develop and cultivate empathy—are required to entitle a healthcare system to the description empathetic.
While macro-level decisions taken by health authorities are subjected to the requirements suggested above, meso-level decisions carried out for distinct intuitions must be related to specific function of the institution within the comprehensively developed system. Yet, as underscored above, in order to foster empathy within institutions, there must be deliberation and negotiation over the politics and structure of care and healthcare institutions.
Broadening the definition of empathetic healthcare to include healthcare institutions and systems requires a broader understanding of what makes empathy possible at macro, meso and micro levels. Rather than centring on the individual healthcare professional, a multitiered view is needed and should be the focus of future work on empathy in healthcare systems.
To realise an empathic healthcare system requires a much broader scope of macro-level decisions that explicitly and coherently relate to empathy than what has been discussed in the literature thus far. Seen in relation to Buchanan's social moral epistemology,36 the shaping of empathic healthcare systems or institutions on such extensive terms would be expected to strengthen positive attitudes towards empathy in everyone involved in developing and upholding these systems or institutions. Moreover, an empathic healthcare system or institution can now be positively and in more detail described on ideal terms as involving policy decision regarding targeted training of empathy in healthcare professionals, ensuring conditions for cultivating empathy amonth healthcare professionals, delegating responsiblity for overseeing empathy in clinical work, as well as intending developing implementation and evaluation of empathy promoting policies across all phases of heatlhcare access and provision.

When third instar larval imaginal discs are cultured for 3, 6, 9 or 12 hr in the presence of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE), the 1.7 kb ImpE2 transcript is detected, while no transcript is detected in discs cultured for the same length of time without 20-HE. Radioactive in situ hybridization shows that in 12-15 hour embryos, transcript localizes to the ectoderm. In 0-4 hour prepupae, part of the columnar epithelium and the peripodal epithelium of each imaginal disc, and the epithelium of the proventriculus, accumulates ImpE2 transcript.

I wanted to share one last thing today in case someone is able to use this as a basis for building a better system. In my post regarding the MVS with Adaptive Batch Exit and Adaptive CTS (viewtopic.php?f=9&t=149), I shared the final version of my ES Daily system.
In my ES Daily system I was originally using an Adaptive MVS but I ended up reverting to a Non-adaptive MVS after the adaptive system was causing issues with the exit system I was trying to implement. If you haven't reviewed the documentation in the post above, it describes all of the sub-systems I added to Earik's MVS so I won't go through describing them again here.
Instead, I want to review the different modes available for the Adaptive MVS which you can find here: http://www.wave59.com/library/scriptdetail.asp?id=180
There are 3 modes you can enable for this system.
1. The Non-adaptive MVS. This is what is being used to generate the signal for the final version of my ES Daily system.
2. Adaptive MVS. As there are 9 sub-systems, it creates 512 (2^9) systems that run in parallel and then compete over a look back period. The combination of sub-systems that performs the best is what is selected to give the final signal to the system that then makes trading decisions.
3. A merge of the Non-adaptive and Adaptive MVS's. The system switches between Non-adaptive and Adaptive each time the selected system takes a loss. If it results in a winning trade, it is allowed to continue to generate the signal. In the attached screenshot, you can track when the system was switching between Non-adaptive and Adaptive. The blue signal line indicates that the Non-adaptive system was in charge so all sub-systems votes were being tallied to create the signal. The green signal line indicates the Adaptive system was in charge and only the best performing sub-systems votes over the look back period were being tallied to create the signal.
I was originally using mode 3 for my ES Daily system but as I mentioned above, when I began implementing the batch exit system, it was creating complications and therefore bugs so I decided to scrap it as the adaptive batch exit system and adaptive CTS strategy based on win/loss streaks created a significantly more profitable system overall.
However, I still think there is promise in using an Adaptive MVS or a combination system like in mode 3 so I wanted to share in case anyone else wants to explore.
Let me know if you have any questions or manage to incorporate this into any of your systems.
Again, a big shout out to Earik for letting me share this. Half of the code is his IP and the process for creating an adaptive system is also his creation so thank you Earik!
Post anything related to mechanical systems and automated trading here.

Al-Obaidi told Shafaq News Agency that the terrorist group exploited the sand storm and the lack of security presence to wage an attack on the Bu Traz village located in Saladin, near the borders of Diyala.
"Except for a single regiment affiliated with the Diyala Operations Command, the territory where the attack happened is devoid of security presence," he continued.
The local officer said that ISIS groups waged two attacks near al-Udhaim in the past 24 hours.
"The first was near the borders of al-Meita with al-Udhaim and the other near al-Hitaween crossing, which traverses al-Udhaim river separating Diyala and Saladin," he explained.
"The vast landscape and the large security gaps render such attacks easier, despite the heavy fortifications," he added.

Ham Bone Soup And Things I Like
HAM BONE SOUP.
I like a lot of things. There are, obvi, lots of things I do not like, but focusing on those things would be a downer, right?
I like Jackie cardigans from JCrew. Even if they are short. I have too many Jackie cardigans.
I like when my husband emails me to say good morning, i love you, and then suggests that he wants to give me a gift every month for no reason. How sweet is that?
I am not sure what I should give him every month... marriage is hard, y'all. I wonder if soup would work?
I really like burritos.
I really like deciding what color Kitchenaid stand mixer I would buy, if I were to buy such a thing. (tangerine. or pear. or classic red. or maybe stainless???)
I like walking to work.
I like daffodils in mason jars.
I like EVERYTHING in mason jars. Like leftover soup.
You can make soup from anything and from nothing. As long as you have a ham bone and some determination.
Isn't that really all we need in life anyway? Pork and a strong will!
I like ham bones.
I started this soup with nothing but the ham bone leftover from Easter dinner, the dregs of a veggie platter from a work party, and an almost-donezo head of cauliflower - and it became a miracle. I put the celery, half the carrots, some onions and the ham bone in the soup pot. I let that jam for about 10 minutes, then added water to cover the bone. Simmer for one hour, don't let it boil hard or the fat does this crazy thing where it breaks down and makes the stock greasy... trust me.
I like roasting vegies
Roast your veggies and three cloves of garlic for 40 minutes at about 275 - keep an eye on them. Dice the garlic after its been roasted.
Remove the ham bone and celery from the ham stock. Take the meat off the bone, return to the pot. Discard bone and celery. Add roasted vegetables to the stock, and add some frozen peas, you daring chef you! Simmer 15 minutes.
I should note that at this time your apartment will smell like HAM HEAVEN.
I like taking soup to work for lunch in mason jar
Dish it up. Save some for lunch tomorrow.
Think of things to give your husband as a little gift that are not socks. Or lunch, because you already make that for him. So it doesn't count.
