March 20, 2003 – Delegate Donna M. Christensen, appointed last month to the newly formed U.S. House Select Committee on Homeland Security, was named on Thursday to serve on its Subcommittee on Emergency Preparedness and Response and also its Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Science, Research and Development.
Christensen said in a release that the emergency preparedness panel was her first choice for assignment, as it "oversees areas critical to the Virgin Islands in the homeland security landscape." The delegate, who is a physician, added that the subcommittee "covers public health, physical infrastructure and industrial assets, and disaster preparedness, all areas that relate directly to the issues facing the territory."
That subcommittee, the release stated, has jurisdiction over:
– Preparation for and response to chemical, biological, radiological and other attacks on civilian populations.
– Protection of physical infrastructure and industrial assets against terrorist attack.
– Issues related to liability arising from terrorist attack.
– Public health issues related to such attacks.
– Disaster preparedness.
– Emergency response coordination with and among state and local governments and the private sector.
– Homeland security technology and other relevant oversight.
The cybersecurity and science subcommittee's jurisdiction covers the security of computer, telecommunication, information technology, industrial control, electric infrastructure and data systems, including science, research and development, the release stated. Also, it has jurisdiction for protecting government and private networks and computer systems from domestic and foreign attack and for preventing injury to civilian populations and damage to physical infrastructure caused by cyber-attack.

Hartlepool hospital intensive care unit to close
Hartlepool hospital's intensive care unit is to close with services moving to North Tees Hospital in Stockton.
The Hartlepool and Stockton Care Commissioning Group said there were problems with attracting staff and the standard of equipment.
It insisted the unit is safe at the moment however it cannot guarantee standards in the future.
The group said a public consultation is due to take place for 12 weeks and staff would be moved to Stockton.
'Not about money'
A report by the National Clinical Advisory Team (NCAT) supported the plans to move the services to the University Hospital of North Tees in Stockton.
The University Hospital of Hartlepool will become a centre for diagnostic tests, day case and low risk operations and the report acknowledged the changes should be made "as quickly as possible".
Dr Paul Williams, a GP from Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees Clinical Commissioning Group, said: "If you want to have consultants round the clock then you can't do that in every small hospital in the country.
"This isn't about costs, it's not going to save money at all. It's about what is safe for the patients and people of Hartlepool."
Hartlepool MP Iain Wright said: "Staff want to be able to provide healthcare and can draw on the full range of emergency care facilities. The report said at times nursing staff, particularly at night, feel unsupported if a clinical error occurs.
"[The unit in Hartlepool] is often under occupied, the national average for a high dependency and intensive care unit is about 75%, the one in Hartlepool is at about 50%."
The change is hoped to be an interim solution until a new purpose-built hospital is approved.
David Emerton, medical director for North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust, said: "We need to take this interim step now to preserve and improve quality and safety."
The NCAT report said the change is likely to affect about 30 patients a day from the Hartlepool and Easington area.
An extra 120 beds will be made available at University Hospital of North Tees.
The public consultation is due to begin at the end of May.

Now the dust has somewhat settled around the firestorm of nothingness controversy about Beyonce’s recent Super Bowl performance and single “Formation”, we can move on and get into the remixes we’ve been so desperately been waiting for. Coming straight out of Serbia, the mysterious dynamic duo known as WRECKVGE with the help of up and comer Rigby have released a hybrid trap remix of Queen B that the “They’s” don’t want you to hear. So you better make sure you hear it.
Beyonce – Formation (Wreckvge & Rigby Remix) | Download
The bouncing trap beat of original was begging for a quality remix and these guys certainly delivered. Adding in slamming trap drums, trippy background synths and by keeping Bey’s vocals riding over the top, it leads perfectly into an absolutely bonkers hybrid trap drop that’ll make your head spin like a middle aged housewife in Kansas who can’t bare to see Beyonce dance (Get over it already). Everything about this track leads us to believe that if you’re playing a “Formation” remix in the club, it should be this one because you’ll be hard pressed to find a better one out there.
Although the “They’s” at soundcloud didn’t want you to have it, this song is available now on Youtube and you can still get the free download linked above! Just throw them a like on facebook and it’s all yours for every and always. So check out the song, grab that download, throw on your glow in the dark trap mask and turn those speakers up!

To get up in the morning and walk into our daily fear
of AK47's and taxi murder: every day a new rise from the
bed of our defeat and the decay of our bodies,
to peek from our caves, soft duvets and electric blankets,
the hollow of our dark sleep and the softness of feathers
surrounding us, the gods of every day and every place,
mitigating the terror with the pleasures of sex and food.
You can track the disturbance on NNTV:
just turn the picture down
and when the storm is near
the snow comes upon the screen and crackles.
No more news today, no more news today:
The contents of my head are rather chaotic already,
and my brain needs a spring cleaning.
Not to wipe out painful memories, though:
I find that when I don't think about the bad stuff
the good stuff goes into a white haze, into white noise.
That is how the revolution begins: insights,
but cut into two, three, fragments of incomprehensible
shouts, hunger, daydreams and starry eyes,
the slang of those whose day has not yet come,
the language fuzz of brain-dead automata,
senses hidden somewhere in the tangle of slogans.
But why does our face trail across every dawn
this dissatisfaction like a slimy path
along the motorway of the golden sun
coming from the mountains in the East and rushing
towards the mountains in the West.
It is difficult to get an overview, a vision
which would allow you to see it all at once.
One would need a house on Table Mountain
and a powerful telescope to understand
the movement of the masses across the Cape Flats.
I am going to write it all down anyway
I am going to write it amidst the confusion
I am going to write and not look at the screen
and not watch the words unfold until I am done.

Ericsson and Maersk create floating network
An essential task
Dozens of companies from around the world navigate our oceans to deliver more than 90% of the world’s cargo, according to Ericsson. And Maersk Line, a shipping company based in Denmark, claims to have the biggest fleet of them all.
With more than 550 ships that have a combined 2.6 million 20-foot equivalent units, Maersk deemed it essential to look at an industrial “internet of things” solution to connect its vessels and maximize efficiency.
“Talking about network society and machine-to-machine, I believe shipping is pretty much in the stone ages – it is right now,” said Niels Bruus, head of fleet management at Maersk Line, at the time of the deployment. “The connected vessel is just the start, I am sure. There is no doubt this will be the cornerstone in our future approach in how efficient we can operate our fleet and our network.”
Industrial IoT on the sea: a groundbreaking solution
Maersk Line began working with Ericsson in 2011, first on the Remote Container Management Project, an initiative designed to monitor the more than 17 million containers the company transports. The project is said to have helped create the world’s largest floating mobile network across the 125 countries Maersk said its containers travel through. The Remote Container Management Project connected 350 vessels to give Maersk the ability to more closely monitor each of its containers and give the company a higher degree of control over the entire shipping process.
“Ericsson has, for our project, managed to transform the capabilities from a shore-based DSM network provider into what we needed – and that was the world’s largest floating DSM network,” Bruus said. “The partnership with Ericsson was about bringing all of our vessels online.”
The future of floating networks
The wireless network is designed to collect data to allow the company to continue to innovate in areas including maximizing efficiency when delivering cargo, environmentally friendly processes and adaptability to unpredictable sea conditions.
“One of the things the solution has enabled for Maersk Line is for us to monitor the fleet live as the vessels are conducting the voyage,” Bruus said. “So that means every time there is an incident that is less than optimal for the most optimal production of the voyage, we can interfere immediately and be proactive and change the behavior as it happens.”
Ericsson said the project shows there is no place on Earth that cannot be connected, and that industries can optimize their processes no matter what they are or where they operate from.

DeSoto was growing and has the wealthiest African American community in the state, but economic development has been slow over the years.
City leaders say that's about to change.
"The concept is to give our citizens something they have not had in the past,” said Mayor Curtistene McCowan.
They are turning what used to be the old ACE hardware store into an area with restaurants, businesses and even an outdoor courtyard.
"It's really going to be a place everybody can come throughout the day. We call it an 18-hour city,” said Murphy Cheatham. He is the CEO of the DeSoto Economic Development.
The mayor says the city had a chance to bring in a big named store but wanted something different. She wanted something more like Bishop Arts neighborhood in Dallas.
“We would love to be as successful with this development as they did in Bishop Arts," said McCowan.
The city also wants to help citizens start up businesses.
On Saturday, they will have a Shark Tank type contest to allow people to pitch their ideas and will sign a contract on the spot.
The youngest entrepreneur competing is 12 years old.
“He has a snow cone business. He seems to be a pretty aggressive entrepreneur that will give a lot of the participants a run for their money,” said DeSoto Mayor Pro-Tem Rachel Proctor.
"The vision is to get the new businesses to succeed and eventually open bigger stores here in the DeSoto Town Center to help the city grow."
The city leaders say they are also hoping to bring in some big named entertainment businesses. They say the face of DeSoto is about to change.

The succulent leaf of the Aloe Vera plant is one of nature’s most wonderful gifts. Recognized throughout history for a multitude of uses, the plant’s fullest capacities are only just now being widely developed for today’s health-conscious consumer.
Research shows that Aloe Vera has properties that are antibacterial, antifungal, antibiotic, analgesic, anesthetic, antiseptic, anti-viral, anti-microbial, and anti-inflammatory.
Aloe has a great penetrating ability and is easily absorbed through all layers of tissue. This makes it effective for collagen production, tissue regeneration, and wound healing including minor skin irritations, acne, burns, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, dandruff, lichens sclerosis, vulvodynia, and other conditions.
Desert Harvest Super-Strength Aloe Vera has been shown in clinical trials to effectively reduce bladder pain, urinary frequency, urgency, and urethral burning that are a part of many bladder disorders, but especially Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) and non-bacterial prostatitis.
Aloe Vera contains acemannan, which is a polysaccharide chain of mannose molecules. Preliminary clinical trials in Europe show that mannose may also help treat or prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Research suggests mannose stops certain bacteria from sticking to the bladder walls. Scientists believe that the bacteria stick to the sugar instead. This helps the bacteria leave the body through urine. Fewer bacteria in the bladder lowers the risk of urinary tract infection.
The Aloe Vera plant is effective in these ways:
Anesthetic: barbalois, isobarbaloin, bradykinase, lupeol, salicylic acid, and magnesium.
Anti-inflammatory: polysaccharides and fatty acids: acemannan, campesterol, b-sitosterol, and other plant sterols.
Antiseptic: lupeol, salicylic acid, urea nitrogen, cinnamic acid, phenols, and sulfur. Antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral benefits.
Cell Growth Stimulator: Aloe stimulates the birth of new, healthy tissue up to eight times the normal rate, as proven by independent research. Breaks down and digests dead tissue, including pus (acne), enhances normal cell proliferation, hastens to heal, is an antipruritic (stops itching), and moisturizes tissues.
Cleansing Antioxidant: Aloe detoxifies and normalizes your metabolism
Deep Penetrating: Aloe has the ability to reach the deepest tissue layers, as deep as seven layers. Most lotions, liquid substances, and water will penetrate only two layers of skin. Dilates capillaries and increases circulation.
Rich in Vitamins & Minerals: B1, B2, C, E, magnesium, calcium, zinc, and many other nutrients, which are the building blocks for healthy cells and bodily functions.

EU Structural Funds: Ireland - 2001
These stockshots are being released to show the contribution made by EU Structural funds to infrastructural development in Ireland. Until 1999 the entire country, including Northern Ireland, was eligible for Objective 1 funding (regions whose GDP was less than 75% of the EU average). However, the development of the Irish economy means the GDP is now 117% and expected to be 120% of the EU average by 2001.
For the new period, 2000 to 2006, only half of the Republic's counties (the new Border, Midland and western Region) will receive full Objective I funding, while the other 13 counties (Southern and Eastern Region) and all of Northern Ireland are areas in transition where Objective 1 funds will be phased out by 2005.
For the Period 1994-99, Ireland received 5,8 billion Euros. For 2000-2006, the amount is 3.2 billion Euros.


Neptune's external mean motion resonances play an important role in sculpting the observed population of transneptunian objects (TNOs). The population of scattering TNOs are known to 'stick' to Neptune's resonances while evolving in semimajor axis ($a$), though simulations show that resonance sticking is less prevalent at $a\gtrsim200-250$ au. Here we present an extensive numerical exploration of the strengths of Neptune's resonances for scattering TNOs with perihelion distances $q=33$ au. We show that the drop-off in resonance sticking for the large $a$ scattering TNOs is not a generic feature of scattering dynamics, but can instead be attributed to the specific configuration of Neptune and Uranus in our solar system. In simulations with just Uranus removed from the giant planet system, Neptune's resonances are strong in the scattering population out to at least $\sim300$ au. Uranus and Neptune are near a 2:1 period ratio, and the variations in Neptune's orbit resulting from this near resonance are responsible for destabilizing Neptune's resonances for high-$e$ TNO orbits beyond the $\sim20$:1 resonance at $a\approx220$ au. Direct interactions between Uranus and the scattering population are responsible for slightly weakening Neptune's closer-in resonances. In simulations where Neptune and Uranus are placed in their mutual 2:1 resonance, we see almost no stable libration of scattering particles in Neptune's external resonances. Our results have important implications for how the strengths of Neptune's distant resonances varied during the epoch of planet migration when the Neptune-Uranus period ratio was evolving. These strength variations likely affected the distant resonant and detached TNO populations.

Trailing suction hopper dredgers can fill their own holds (hoppers) by sucking material from the seabed using a trailing suction head fitted to pipes that trail over the bed as the ship sails. Trailing suction hopper dredgers can operate independently of other equipment and are able to transport the dredged material over long distances. The material can then be deposited through hatches in the bottom of the ship or by rainbowing. It can also be pumped ashore through a pipeline for land reclamation.

Dating new scandinavians Uk top adult dating sites
It is very important for Eastern European women to show their femininity through clothes.Their hair is always perfectly laid, they have manicure and pedicure.Sixty percent of first-born children have unmarried parents, Kurz declared.Not only that, but Sweden is singled out as the world leader in family decline.The image of the Slavic woman is incredibly multifaceted.The beauty of Slavic women is harmony, inseparable unity of a sensitive, noble soul, and a gracious appearance.Researcher Stanley Kurz raised the red flag a couple of years ago, when he claimed in the influential conservative journal The Weekly Standard that marriage is slowly dying in Scandinavia.A majority of children in Sweden and Norway are born out of wedlock.
These two qualities – being strong in some situations and being weak in others – perfectly coexist in the daily life of Slavic women.Education of Eastern European Women In addition to being beautiful, Eastern European women are well-educated and hardworking.Almost every woman in the countries of former USSR has a university degree.Eastern European Women and Their Style The body shape of Eastern European women is of an hourglass or pear.This makes them look very feminine and thus attractive to men.

WaterField Designs Gear Pouch
Manufacturer: WaterField Designs
Site: Buy from WaterField Designs
Overview : The PSP Gear Pouch is made from Ballistic nylon, with padding internally protecting the PSP and other items. The main compartment includes a self tightening pocket, which has enough room for your PSP in a case. Three pockets give you room for game disks, an extra battery and the power supply. There is enough spare room between the sides to carry your power cord, a large spare battery and the manual.
Quality/Usability : The concept of this case is pretty much the same as of that of the Capdase Twin Case that was reviewed. But the Waterfield Pouches take on a whole new look. The cases are made in San Francisco, California..thats right, no overseas manufacturers. Made in the good ole US of A. The PSP Pouches are built from rugged Ballistic nylon, offer ample padding, and secure zippers and seams. Each case has two handy loops for easier carrying or for strapping to your backpack or messenger bag - one vertical loop and one horizontal loop. Both cases (Gear Pouch and Mini Gear Pouch) come in a variety of colors and are priced just as you'd expect.
- PSP Gear Pouch - 9.75" x 5" x 2" 4 oz.
The Gear Pouch measures - 9.75" x 5" x 2". It is the perfect size for those of us who want to bring along more than just our PSP. The pouch features a padded and lined compartment for your PSP; a main compartment for the AC adapter, power cord and USB cable; slots for UMD games, movies and more; and a zippered front compartment with various slots for things like Memory Sticks and miscellaneous. The case offers so much room that you can fit other items such as your wallet, cash, coins and even spare AA/AAA batteries for your CD player or digital camera. Whats even more of a shocker is that you can place your PSP into a Logitech PlayGear case (if you own own) and still be able to place it inside the Gear Pouch. Thats how much room there is!
Conclusion : This is probably one of the nicest cases out there. Nothing too fancy and nothing too boring. It does its job and probably more. You dont have to hold your PSP and accessories in here, you can use it for other items such as your digital camera or other electronics, but than whats the point of calling this a PSP Gear Pouch? The sizes of the pouch may turn consumers head away because it does kind of look like a clutch bag that your girlfriend or mother would carry around in their hands. But if you want a nice case to hold your PSP and accessories all in one place, than thats the price we'll have to pay.

On Sept. 11, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved updated monovalent versions of the Pfizer/BioNTech messenger RNA (mRNA) Comirnaty and Moderna/NIAID’s mRNA Spikevax COVID-19 shots. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) signed off on the new shots the day after FDA’s approval, recommending them for children 12 years of age and older and releasing the products under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for children as young as six months.1
Newsweek recently reported that Pfizer only tested its new monovalent booster shot formulation targeting the Omicron XBB.1.5 strain on a small group of mice, and the FDA has not released testing information for either the Pfizer or Moderna products.2 Last fall, FDA officials authorized distribution of the Pfizer and Moderna bivalent booster shots based on a small mice study and did not require the companies to test the bivalent formulation on humans before the shots were recommended by CDC officials for children and adults.3
The rollout of the new Comirnaty and Spikevax products is the first since the World Health Organization (WHO) and the White House declared in May of this year that the coronavirus public health emergency had ended. Distribution and purchase of the new booster shots now has been shifted to the commercial market, where manufacturers will sell their products directly to health care providers at higher prices.1
New mRNA COVID Boosters Do Not Target Currently Circulating Virus Strains
The updated monovalent booster shots, which do not target the current dominant variants Eris (EG.5) and Pirola (BA.2.86), are designed to target the Omicron variant XBB.1.5—a strain which the CDC has confirmed is already declining in the U.S.4 In a press release following the FDA’s approval, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said, “We expect this season’s vaccine to be available in the coming days, pending recommendation from public health authorities.”1
The latest guidance from FDA officials is that children between the ages of six months and four years should receive one or two doses of the current booster shot if they’ve received previous COVID shots. However, if a child has never received a COVID shot, the recommendation is that the child should receive three doses of the updated Comirnaty shot or two doses of the updated Spikevax shot—in addition to the dozens of doses of other vaccines recommended by CDC officials for children.5
Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel urged Americans to get the updated COVID shots during the same appointment as their annual flu shot, even though no studies exist to prove the short- or long-term synergistic effects of the two vaccines being administered simultaneously at any age.1
FDA Shies Away from Calling Updated Vaccines “Boosters”
According to Johns Hopkins University, FDA officials have shied away from calling the latest mRNA shots “boosters.” The change in nomenclature reflects a collective approach to treating COVID similar to influenza, where everyone is encouraged to get an “annual flu shot” and now also get an annual “COVID shot” at the same time. Using the words “updated COVID vaccine” rather than “COVID booster” also emphasizes that recipients of the minimally-tested new shots aren’t just boosting existing immunity from the same previous shots, but rather a completely new immune response—from a completely new medical product—to the newly-circulating variants.6
This isn’t the first time during the pandemic that language about products labeled as “vaccines” was rewritten by federal health officials. The CDC altered the definition of the word “vaccination” shortly after the deployment of COVID shots, changing the definition from “a substance that provides ‘immunity’ to a specific disease,” to “a preparation that is administered—as by injection—to stimulate the body’s immune response against a specific infectious agent or disease.”7
According to the Associated Press, unnamed “experts” confirmed to the AP that the changes to the definition “reflect the evolution of vaccine research and technology.” The CDC told the AP in a statement that it altered the definition to “add detail and increase transparency.”7
“While there have been slight changes in wording over time to the definition of ‘vaccine’ on CDC’s website, those haven’t impacted the overall definition,” the CDC said, noting that the previous definition “could be interpreted to mean that vaccines were 100 percent effective, which has never been the case for any vaccine.”7
Ryan Langlois, PhD, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Minnesota, says the CDC’s changes “make total sense,” and adds nuance following emerging vaccine developments such as mRNA technology.7 The statements came after the CDC abruptly stopped tracking breakthrough infections, or instances of vaccine failure, back in 2021—eventually only including data on breakthrough hospitalizations and deaths.
Data Shows Updated COVID Shots “Not Very Effective” Against Latest Strains
As for the latest SARS-CoV-2 variants, the Eris strain is spreading quickly, but experts allege that it’s no more dangerous than previous strains like Omicron and Delta. The other new SARS-CoV-2 variant, Pirola, is being closely watched because it appears to contain numerous mutations. Data from scientists in China shows the updated COVID shows will not be very effective against Eris and Pirola strains.
Eric Topol, MD, executive vice president of Scripps Research in La Jolla, California, worries about people who are high-risk.
The [COVID] vaccines that they’ve had are too far removed from where the virus is right now and where it’s going.²
The bivalent Comirnaty and Spikevax shots approved by the FDA last year are no longer authorized for use in the United States.5

Been busy lately working on a card game. The display relies heavily on postcards-in-space 2.5D effect, so early on I had to make a choice of what libraries to use. Starling is my go-to framework, but it did not have any 3D display classes (only a few weeks ago 1.6 was released with a some 3D support) so I decided to use a layered Starling + Away3D display.
I ended up with 2D display list in screen space, and a 3D display list containing flat plane geometry – the cards – in 3D space. While the usual placement worked great, I soon realized there are a few unexpected limitations. Maybe I got spoiled with Starling, it’s flexibility and the strong community support, so I half expected Away3D to offer the same level of support. I was wrong.
The Away3D forums suffer from very low traffic, to say the least. Searching in them is slow and sluggish, and then most results are outdated (3 years and older). Trivial issues soon became real problems when there is almost no one to answer you. At one point I was considering switching to a different engine, but that was too risky. Really, it’s a shame – the Away3D engine could become so much better with some minimal maintenance and adding convenience features, only instead it’s left to decay.
Z-Order, depth and the TextureMaterial
Dealing only with flat object on a flat plane (e.g. cards on a table), I wanted to have the same control over the display objects as I have in Starling. The card objects are plane meshes that display a face image and a back image using Away3D texture material (away3d.materials.TextureMaterial) – and these images typically are rounded rectangle shape. I mention that since we need to use the alpha channel, a trivial feature in Starling.
So TextureMaterial offers a blend mode and renders the image as expected. Now stack up a few of these flat object and place them on the plane in overlapping positions – this will produce an artifact known to every OpenGL coder as co-planar geometry.
To overcome that, assign each object a different Z value, expecting trivial Z-ordering on the plane. This works, but there is a catch: since the plane is viewed from a perspective camera, the renderer will place lower cards on top of upper ones if they are closer to the camera, regardless of the Z value. There is a way around that, if you turn off alpha blending, but then transparent pixels show as black.
To overcome that, TextureMaterial has an alpha threshold feature. Any pixel with alpha value below that threshold will no get drawn. This comes close to what I needed.
Problem solved? not so fast. The resulting images clearly indicate render quality suffered. All edges show noticeable aliasing. Getting rid of the aliasing proved close to impossible. Turning on FSAA? check. Turning on mipmaps? check. Different padding of the card image with transparent pixels did not do much either.
In summary, the versatile TextureMaterial proved inadequate and unhelpful. You basically stuck between two bad choices: either give up z-order control for alpha blending, or give up blending and make do with jagged edges.
Please let me know if anyone knows a solution for this. Any comments are appreciated.
I will talk about possible workarounds in a future post.

The term “healthcare” in Ireland can refer to two different systems. One is the Irish National Health Service (NHS) and the other is the private sector. This article explores the differences between the two and the options available to expatriates moving to Ireland.
Medical charities flourished in Ireland during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the state was not yet ready to take on the task of solving the social problems that plagued Europe. In the heyday of local charitable aid, a single family might be able to control the major relief institutions of a small town. But as the 19th century progressed, the burgeoning industrial centers of Britain and France witnessed the creation of more and more voluntary hospitals.
The most impressive of these institutions was the ‘charity’ hospital. This was a medical facility that was staffed by physicians and surgeons in honorary positions. Some hospitals even offered special treatment for certain groups of diseases.
Of course, in the early decades of the twentieth century, hospitals were still run by local government. These were akin to cottage hospitals. They were in many ways the cutting edge of medicine. However, with the advent of new medical technologies, these institutions were being left behind.
The two-tier system remains unresolved
The two-tier system in Irish healthcare remains a major issue, despite efforts at reform. While we might see a rebirth of the public hospital as an integrated health provider, the private sector is still on the case. For instance, the University Hospital of Limerick had a record number of emergency patients mid-September.
In terms of the healthcare sector, Ireland has a VHI scheme entrusted with the lion’s share of the nation’s medical spending. Despite this, the country still has the second highest cost of care in the EU, and the second highest waiting list. To make matters worse, this underfunded public sector is incapable of meeting demand.
Luckily, the Irish government is making a concerted effort to rectify the situation. A raft of new initiatives is taking effect.
GPs are active in both general practices and out-of-hours facilities
General Practitioners (GPs) are key players in the delivery of healthcare in Ireland. They are the first point of contact for patients with health concerns. However, GPs face many challenges in the current times.
The Irish College of General Practitioners (ICGP) estimates there are 3496 GPs in the country. This estimate excludes GPs who are working in other countries, as well as retired GPs.
ICGP estimates that general practice provides over 29 million consultations a year. This includes more than one million appointments in out-of-hours services. For these appointments, GPs often charge a fee. In some cases, the fee is exempt for people with Medical Cards.
Most GPs operate as private businesses. They charge for their service at an average rate of EUR65 per consultation. Some GPs offer house visits.
Cost of adverse events in Ireland
Adverse events are injuries sustained by a patient as a result of care management. They can be preventable or reversible. These events increase hospital length of stay (LOS), add days to the total stay of a patient, and increase readmission rates.
An Irish National Adverse Event Study (INAES) was conducted to understand the prevalence of adverse events in Irish hospitals. The study used a two-step methodology, including a retrospective chart review, to assess the overall prevalence of adverse events in the acute sector.
For the INAES, 1574 randomly selected adult inpatient admissions from eight hospitals were used. Overall, AE incidence density was estimated as 10.3 events per 100 admissions. This rate was lower than the overall rate in Sweden (12.3%), but comparable to other OECD countries.
Health insurance options for expatriates moving to Ireland
If you are planning to move to Ireland, you will want to get the right health insurance. Not only will you save money in the long run, you will also have peace of mind.
There are several options available for expatriates living in Ireland. The first is to obtain a medical card, which will grant you access to the public health system.
Another option is to apply for private healthcare, which can help you get faster treatment and save you money. You can choose from several companies to provide a full range of coverage.
A third option is to purchase a global health insurance plan. This will allow you to access more doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare facilities around the world.
An important tip for any expatriate is to obtain an EHIC, or European Health Insurance Card. The card will allow you to receive the same level of medical care as an Irish resident.

Israel Folau and overcoming the hurdle of political correctness
Social media went into meltdown last week when Australian rugby star Israel Folau posted anti-gay messages.
Taking to Instagram last Wednesday, the Australian Wallaby posted a message that said “hell awaits” “drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolators”, and added that they should “repent” in order to be saved.
The post immediately triggered a public backlash and condemnation within and outside Australia, and comes close to a year after he posted a similar homophobic message on his Instagram account.
Last Friday the dual international was reportedly stood down indefinitely, with his club NSW Waratahs and the Australian Rugby Union (ARU) announcing the termination of his four-year AU$4 million contract Monday evening.
The Folau controversy throws light on what we call “political correctness” in this day and age. But what is political correctness?
The Collins Online Dictionary defines political correctness as the attitude or policy of being extremely careful not to offend or upset any group of people in society who have a disadvantage, or who have been treated differently because of their sex, race, or disability.
So did Folau know the consequences of his actions when he made the post last Wednesday? Yes. He made similar posts on social media in April last year and September 2017 – both also attracting widespread criticism – with the ARU among his biggest critics.
When the former Melbourne Storm and Brisbane Broncos player switched to rugby union in December 2012, he knew what he was getting himself into when he signed up. Over a year later the ARU announced that it was developing an Inclusion Policy, which strived to kick out discrimination and homophobia from the game.
The then ARU CEO, Bill Pulver, said the policy aims to ensure Australian Rugby continues to be a place where everyone involved feels safe, welcome and included regardless of race, gender or sexuality.
“Developing this Inclusion Policy is important as it demonstrates that Rugby is a game where you feel included and accepted, no matter who you are.
“Australian Rugby is making progress to support social justice and diversity. We want to ensure everyone involved in the game is treated with respect and dignity,” he said at that time.
Suffice to say Folau knew exactly what he was getting into when he put pen to paper on that new contract. The ARU Inclusion Policy evolved and is now part and partial of the Player’s Code of Conduct, and he has now found himself in breach of the Code.
Current ARU CEO, Raelene Castle, released a statement last night advising of Folau’s termination.
“The Rugby Australia Integrity Unit deemed that Folau had committed a high-level breach of the Professional Players’ Code of Conduct warranting termination of his employment contract. Folau has 48 hours to accept the sanction or have the matter referred to a Code of Conduct hearing,” she said in a statement.
Again, the issue of political correctness comes to the fore, and whether the Australian rugby star is being forced to align his thoughts and expression with what is “socially acceptable” for other groups is debatable. And he has now paid the price!
His Christian beliefs and commitment to the Assemblies of God (AOG), and their mission to spread the Gospel throughout the world, is manifested in the types of posts he had made on his now controversial Instagram page. Most of his posts are Christian and religious-themed.
But let us not forget too that Folau – when signing his contract – agreed to abide the rules of the ARU including that of how he conducted himself on and off the field. And his social media use including Twitter and Instagram was part of the package.
We need rules in a world of clashing ideologies to maintain some form of conformity and stability in our lives. Looking back in retrospect, perhaps there was an overlap in the rules in Folau’s life: his love for his Church and his God and his love for rugby union.
Hopefully someone alerted the besieged Australian rugby star to the words of advice offered by Samoan All Black, Ardie Savea.
The Hurricane player, who was in Samoa recently to spend time with family, told Samoa Observer that his Australian colleague should love everyone.
“For me, I’m all about love and compassion and I know for sure that the boss won’t have any problem when I share love,” he said.
“To each to their own, but when you’re in a position where so many people follow you and look up to you, to put stuff out that’s not about love, you’ve got to be careful and it’s probably not the right thing to do.”
Yes, lets love more – irrespective of gender, colour, religion, ability and disability, and sexual orientation.
Have a lovely Tuesday Samoa and God bless.
