__label__cc	0.628834	0.371166	SBMCs Partake in Public Schools’ Renovations, Generate Money from Sales of Old Building Materials Community Engagement and Partnership as a major pillar of the Edo BEST programme has continued to pay off. Since the advent of the Edo BEST Initiative, communities hosting public primary schools within the State have shown their desire to embrace the change which the current Obaseki-led administration has initiated in the basic education sub-sector. Members of the SBMC have displayed a sense of concern towards the education of pupils in their communities as recent demonstrations have shown. The over eleven thousand (11,000) School-Based Management Committee (SBMC) members who were trained in November 2018, have become actively involved in the day to day administration of Edo BEST schools within their communities. In a bid to consolidate on the excellent transformation at the basic education level, members of the SBMC have taken up the responsibility of going round their locality to monitor the ongoing renovation/construction projects in 232 public primary schools in the State. In Evbuotubu Primary School in Egor LGA for instance, members of the SBMC have assisted enormously in the supervision of the construction work in the School in order to ensure that contractors adhere to the construction plans and specifications as well as refrain from the use of sub-standard building materials. This is the case in most public schools under construction and renovation across the State. Members of the SBMC have also afforded the government a great leverage in the provision of security for school property and building materials, as well as the protection of schools against vandalism. SBMCs of Eveva Primary School in Etsako East LGA, Eweka Primary School in Egor LGA and Ukpato Primary School in Esan West LGA for instance, have made adequate provisions for security personnel to ensure proper monitoring and surveillance of school property and guard against trespassers. It is also worthy of note that the SBMCs have begun the auction of old building materials like zinc bundles and wood logs and ensuring that the money realised are properly channelled toward the maintenance of schools within their community. In most schools, SBMCs have realized over a hundred thousand Naira (100,000) from sales. In prior times, it was different. When school buildings were vandalised and a renovation/reconstruction work carried out, not only are construction materials stolen, old building materials vanish into thin air as well. The inauguration of the SBMC has militated greatly against such trend. Schools are now adequately protected by members of the community and funds are being realised for schools’ maintenance from the sales of old building materials. Determination, dedication and attitude remain essential ingredients of education in modern times. These are unique attributes that have characterized the School-Based Management Committees (SBMCs) since their inauguration. Incorporating the community as well as its members into the framework of the Edo BEST Programme remain one of the standing legacies of the Governor Godwin Obaseki administration in basic education which shall linger through the sands of time. Edo BEST provides quality education for every child. Photo Caption: Schools undergoing renovation/construction	cc/2023-06/en_middle_0028.json.gz/line14
__label__cc	0.554972	0.445028	GeodSoft Bogus PHP DoS Attacks On August 1, 2000, a security oriented newsletter from e-softinc.com helped turn a simple programming language feature into a new security threat. Listed among their top ten security related news items for July, was one from SecurityWatch.com titled "PHP Eminently DoS-able." The page that this article responds to and SecurityWatch.com are both gone now, but an archived copy of the page is available at the Internet Archive. While the specifics of this incident are now obsolete, the danger of misinformed over reaction to some reported "bugs" remains relevant. Selection for the "Top 10" is based on clickthroughs. Given the title, it's hardly surprising that it got a lot of clickthroughs. PHP has become the most popular tool for developing dynamic web content. Anyone who uses PHP, would want to see what the article was about. This page is a request that those who post reports of security problems actually do some research, and attempt to understand a problem before labeling something as a new security threat. If the editors at a security related site don't understand the issues, they should seek some expert opinions, and if they are divided, include the opposing points of view. In my opinion, SecurityWatch.com should not have reported this, at least not without some informed commentary, and e-softinc.com should not have linked to it, at least without some background. The SecurityWatch.com piece opens with "(07/20/2001) Russia's own Ilya Teterin has alerted users to a potential denial-of-service vulnerability in PHP." It mentions that PHP includes the ability to access files via HTTP. The supposed "bug" is that someone with malicious intents, can write a PHP script that calls itself, creating an endless loop that eventually consumes all the server resources. Duh. For starters the malicious attacker has to have write rights to the PHP script area. Either this malicious person is already a bad guy customer or employee or an intruder who has compromised the system via other means. If the latter, writing juvenile buggy code, hardly seems how they are likely to spend their time. I don't know of any programming language, that doesn't include features that allow any programmer to exhaust all resources to which the program has access. Any language that supports recursion can create an infinite loop with a function calling itself until all stack space and or memory available to the process is exhausted. This supposed new PHP bug, is nothing other than a special case of this. A program that writes to disks can fill all the disk space it has access to. A program that allocates memory can allocate all memory that it is allowed to. Should we disallow recursion, disk writes and memory allocation? Obviously not if we want our programs to do anything useful. The operating system, should place constraints on how much disk, memory or any other finite resources, a process can allocate to itself. As for this PHP "bug", is it not possible for requires and includes of local files to create similar resource exhausting endless loops. If this is what's being discussed then the "HTTP" part of the reported "bug" is incidental. On the other hand if the discussion is focused on executable code obtained via HTTP only, then why focus on the most benign of the possible bad uses to which such code could be put. Given that foreign code has been imported and is running with the same privileges as the PHP process or possibly as an authenticated user, then this code could do anything that any local code (it is now local) in the same security context can do. It could erase disk content to which it has write access, e-mail directory tree listings of the web site or possibly other directories, e-mail any documents or data that's part of the PHP application system where the imported code is executing, or any other documents to which those processes have read access. The list of damage is constrained only by security set up on the server where the imported code is executing, and the imagination of the malicious author. Of course to do any of this, the author needs to know that his or her code is actually being included and executed as part of PHP applications on remote sites. PHP is a general purpose programming language that will do what it's told to do. If that is stupid or dangerous, then the results will be stupid or dangerous. Anyone stupid enough to write programs that import executable statements, from sources over which they have anything less that full control, is a fool who will get what they deserve. This is not a PHP bug but rather a reporting bug. Some of these people are so ignorant and gullible that all someone has to do to get their attention and web space is announce a new "bug" that is nothing other than a programing language feature that is so trivial and obvious that no responsible person would consider mentioning it as a bug. Then it's labeled with scare tactic headlines, that draw those interested in the affected product, to the web site and finally someone else gives the whole thing credence as a "top ten" item. Those that have the experience to evaluate the story, leave grumbling because they've been duped to come to a pointless web page, and those who don't, wonder if they should avoid a potentially useful product feature, because someone else thought of an irresponsible way to use it. Maybe I'm missing something here. From what was said at SecurityWatch, I sure can't think of it. If you can, please let me know and I'll update this page accordingly. Six years after I wrote this not a single person wrote to criticise anything I said. Top of Page - Site Map Copyright © 2000 - 2014 by George Shaffer.

HIERARCHAL PASTORAL LETTERS † DANIEL, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church et alii Autor: † DANIEL, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church et alii The pastoral letters presents the message of the diocesan bishops of Metropolis of Muntenia and Dobrogea: † DANIEL, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church, † Nifon, Archbishop of Târgovişte, † Teodosie, Archbishop of Tomis,† Calinic, Archbishop of Argeş and Muscel,† Ciprian, Archbishop of Buzău and Vrancea, † Casian, Archbishop of Dunărea de Jos,† Vincențiu, Bishop of Slobozia and Călăraşi, † Galaction, Bishop of Alexandria and Teleorman, † Ambrozie, Bishop of Giurgiu, † Visarion, Bishop of Tulcea on the Nativity of our Saviour Jesus Christ celebration in 2019. Containing short teachings of faith and pastoral exhortations, the letter was read in all the churches in his jurisdiction. Saint Parascheva, the spiritual flower of Orthodoxy (Homily) Pr. Felix NECULAI Autor: Pr. Felix NECULAI Every nation have an epic. The Russians have the Song of Igor’s army, the French have the Song of Roland, and the Germans have the Song of the Nibelungs. We Romanians, not the last of the peoples of God’s earth, have the epic of Saint Parascheva.Saint Parascheva proves us today through her life, that through the Cross of Christ, we learn the true value of life and we correctly establish the relationship between body and soul, between mortal and immortal. Homily on the 28th Sunday after Pentecost. The Healing of the infirm woman Pr. Cristian STAVRIU Autor: Pr. Cristian STAVRIU The sermon brings into question the „bowing of the soul”, a disease from which many contemporary people suffer. The causes of this spiritual illness are: the abuse of technology (telephone, social networks, etc.) and too much waste in external details. The proposed remedy is to return to oneself and to God. Homily on the Sunday before the Nativity of Christ Bogdan TĂTARU-CAZABAN Autor: Bogdan TĂTARU-CAZABAN The evangelist Matthew addresses especially the Christians from the chosen people for whom the messianic identity of Jesus Christ was fundamental. Thus, the New Testament opens with a ternary genealogy that provides the image of the uninterrupted continuity of the divine election. The picture of the Savior’s Davidic offspring is depicted with the inspiration of liberating truth, not hiding human sinfulness and revealing God’s freedom to manifest His faithfulness in sometimes unpredictable ways. Joseph embodies the tension between David’s expectation and the birth of Christ in the Virgin Mary. If the role of Joseph is essential for the bodily eyes of the people, because it allows the integration of the Infant into the tradition and customs of the Jewish people, in the case of the Virgin Mary her real and full motherhood is the human source of the incarnation of the Son of God, the supreme limit to which humanity waiting for the Messiah could rise, offering its own nature to the One Who created human nature. Less known aspects of the biography of Patriarch Nicodim Munteanu (1864-1948): the texts signed by him in the journal "Mitropolia Moldovei" in 1935, as Metropolitan of Moldova Dr. Silviu-Constantin NEDELCU/ Preot Mihai PITIU Autor: Dr. Silviu-Constantin NEDELCU/ Preot Mihai PITIU Patriarch Nicodim Munteanu was the second Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church and succeeded Patriarch Miron Cristea (1925-1939), being enthroned after his death and ruling for nine years, from 1939 until his death, in 1948. After the death of Metropolitan Pimen Georgescu (1853-1934), the seat of the Metropolitan Church of Moldova and Suceava was declared vacant, elections were held on January 23, 1935. Metropolitan Nicodim obtained 103 votes out of the total of 156, being designated as Metropolitan of Moldova. On January 30, 1935, the royal investiture was followed at the Royal Palace, and its official installation in the capital of Moldova, the city of Iasi, took place on February 3, 1935, in the presence of Patriarch Miron Cristea, Metropolitan Nicolae Bălan of Transylvania, Bishop Visarion Puiu of Bălți, Alexandru Lapedatu, Minister of Cults, Osvald Racovitză, mayor of the city of Iasi, et al. After being elected Metropolitan of Moldova, Nicodim Munteanu, having a rich activity as a writer and translator, continued to write further, his first texts being found in the pages of the magazine Mitropolia Moldovei. Metropolitan Nicodim published in the theological journal Mitropolia Moldovei, from no. 3 (March 1935) until no. 12 (December 1935), a total number of 13 texts. These texts can be divided into several categories: 1) pastoral letters; 2) occasional speeches; 3) greetings (Easter, Christmas and New Year); 4) official documents (notifications and metropolitan decisions). Antipascha Sunday, in which we commemorate the event of the Holy Apostle Thomas' touching the wounds of Christ. A biblical-liturgical approach Radu UNGUREANU, PhD candidate Autor: Radu UNGUREANU, PhD candidate The liturgical text of the Pentecostarion offers a hermeneutic perspective to the „Thomas episode”, to which not much attention was been given by biblical theology. From this point of view, it is a challenge for biblical scholars to discover the relationship between the biblical and the liturgical text. The two sources, biblical and liturgical, complement each other and offer a truthful approach to the figure of Apostle Thomas, in a synchronic and diachronic perspective. Both the biblical text and the liturgical text provide the resources to discover Thomas and to outline his image as an Apostle and his place among the Apostles in the history of salvation. Patriarch Nicodim Munteanu (1939-1948) – wise shepherd of the Romanian Orthodox Church in turbulent times of Romanian history Pr. prof. Mihail-Simion SĂSĂUJAN Autor: Pr. prof. Mihail-Simion SĂSĂUJAN This study presents a summary analysis of the personality of Patriarch Nicodim Munteanu based on the literature from the interwar period and from the post-communist period. The essential biographical data of the hierarch are mentioned, the attitude towards state power during the regime of monarchical authority of King Carol II (February 10, 1938-6 Sept. 1940), the legionary regime (Sept. 14, 1940-23 Jan. 1941), the military-Antonescu regime (1941 -1944) and the communist regime (1944-1947). His scholarly activity is also highlighted: the translations of some theological works from the Russian language, the translation, together with Gala Galaction and Vasile Radu, of the Bible from 1936, and other biblical and liturgical works. Additionally, the Patriarch had an intensive pastoral-missionary activity, as it is mirrored in many of his pastoral-catechetical works for priests and believers. Patriarch Iustin Moisescu (1977-1986) – scholar theologian and promoter of translations of Patristic texts in Romanian Pr. prof. Constantin PREDA Autor: Pr. prof. Constantin PREDA Patriarch Iustin Moisescu (1910-1986) had an essential contribution in the development of the Romanian Exegesis of the New Testament. His doctoral thesis dedicated to Evagrie din Pont (Evagrie din Pont, Life, writings and teaching) was one of the first scholarly international monographs on a Christian mystic. A study of the origin and originality of the parables of the Savior Jesus Christ followed, and a volume of Biblical exegesis (The Activity of the Holy Apostle Paul in Athens. Acts 17, 16-34, Iasi, 1946). Another work is The Church Hierarchy in the Apostolic Times (Craiova, 1955), followed by a study on the occasion of the 19th century anniversary of the Apostolic Synod of Jerusalem, entitled „St. Paul and the life of the most important communities Christians of the apostolic age”. The article ends with the presentation of cultural activities and the special interest shown by Iustin Moisescu, Metropolitan of Moldova and later Patriarch of Romania, for the restoration of churches and buildings of great historical value. The Light of the Word for the Many. Translators from Wallachia and their works Archim. dr. Policarp CHIȚULESCU Autor: Archim. dr. Policarp CHIȚULESCU The oldest sources of Christian life in Romania (the treasure of liturgical books, needed for cultic activity, together with dogmatic, hagiographic, patristic and canonical literature) were directly received from Byzance, in Greek or by Slavic affiliation. In our presentation, we will insist only on the moments that have deeply influenced the development of orthodox spirituality, of the Romanian language and literature. We will highlight the beginnings of the printing of Romanian language translations, taking into account the intense influence and circulation that printed books had, compared to manuscripts. We will not neglect the especially important aspect of the introduction of the Romanian language in cultic activity, a process that was realised in stages by scholarly hierarchs, with the tacit agreement of the Eastern patriarchs. The second part of the study addresses the presence of Saint Paisie from Neamț and the contribution of his translation school to the development of Romanian literature. The modern period of the Romanian literature has its beginnings also in the translations made by scholar monks in the monasteries from Moldova and Wallachia: Neamț, Dragomirna, Secu, Căldărușani, Cernica etc. The goal set by these translators was the soul’s salvation of those who read. The readers, by the help of the saintly texts, would learn how to repent and change their life, according to the Gospel of Christ, in order to acquire eternal life. Moreover, the translations have a moral and social practical utility. By its highly elevated expression, the liturgical language became a stilistic model and an inspiration source for Romanian poets and writers. Moreover, the religious books translators have enriched theological literature, but also Romanian literature, making an essential contribution to the development of the liturgical language and to the Romanian literary language.

"Immediate Need" Fast-Track Application for Medicaid and Personal Care or CDPAP - Independent Assessor Starts Dec. 1, 2022 Posted: 16 Sep, 2014 by Valerie Bogart (New York Legal Assistance Group) Updated: 10 Jan, 2023 Medicaid has a fast-track procedure to apply for Medicaid in order to obtain home care services, which has been faster than enrolling in a managed long term care plan. Click here to learn about the reasons for MLTC enrollment delays. The 2015 New York law requires approval of Medicaid in only SEVEN DAYS and of Medicaid personal care or Consumer-Directed Personal Assistance in TWELVE DAYS if there is an "immediate need" for home care. This article describes this procedure and other strategies to minimize these delays. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS - Fact sheet with Key Forms for Immediate Need in process of being updated. ALERT RE CHANGES: Starting Dec. 1, 2022 --The local DSS will accept applications for Immediate need but will refer them to be assessed through the new NY "Independent Assessor" (NYIA) procedures. DO NOT call NYIA directly to apply for Immediate Need. You must follow the procedures described below which explain what forms and other documents to submit to your local Medicaid office (LDSS). See DOH directive GIS 22 MA/09 - Implementation of Assessments Conducted by the New York Independent Assessor (NYIA) Based on an Immediate Need for PCS/CDPAS (PDF) (11/16/2022) See more about NYIA in this article and NYS DOH Independent Assessor website. Starting Nov. 8, 2021, a nurse practitioner or physician's assistant or osteopath, not only physicians, may sign the M11q. see more here. 2021 NOTE for NYC applicants - Now use a different Supplement A (DOH-5178A) with applications. See more here. Covid-19 NOTE - Local districts should still be processing these applications with these flexibilities: Physician may complete the physician's order by telehealth or telephone (use new Practitioner Statement of Need form (DOH-5779) The DSS nurse and social worker may complete the required assessments by telehealth or telephone. Both of the above changes are in COVID-19 Guidance for the Authorization of Community Based Long-Term Services and Supports Covered by Medicaid – UPDATED 4.8.20 The Medicaid application must still be completed, but fewer documents are needed. "Attestation" as to income and resources are allowed. See more here. See more Covid-19 flexibilities in NYS in this article.Law & Regulations Part I Immediate Need Fast Track Procedures - with Changes Dec. 1, 2022 Part 2 Law, Regulations, State & NYC HRA Directives Implementing Immediate Need Part 3 BACKGROUND on the IMMEDIATE NEED Law Part 1 Immediate Need Fast Track Procedures a. How to Apply for Medicaid (or How to apply for Personal Care if you already have Medicaid) -- if You have an Immediate Need for Personal Care or CDPAP Services Submit the following package to the local Medicaid office in your county. WHERE: In New York City, E-FAX the package to the HRA-HCSP Central Medicaid Unit - 1-917-639-0665; The unit is located at 785 Atlantic Avenue, 7th Fl. Brooklyn, NY 11238 but mail or hand delivery is discouraged. In NYC, use HRA HCSP Transmittal Form HCSP -3052 Medicaid application with all required documents. This must include "Supplement A" (Form DOH-5178A -used statewide as of Jan. 2021 - see more about this 2021 change here)(alternate languages and formats of forms posted at this link). See more about Medicaid eligibility here. If you already have Medicaid, submit the approval notice and the CIN number. If an application was already submitted and is pending, submit a copy of it along with all documentation, and proof of when and where it was filed. Physician's statement -AFTER Dec. 1, 2022, submit a new Practitioner Statement of Need form (DOH-5779) in lieu of the old Physician’s Order form (DOH-4359 or HCSP-M11Q). The Practitioner Statement of Need is shorter and can be completed by an MD, DO, NP or PA. The local district should still accept a physician order (DOH-4359 or HCSP-M11Q) after Dec. 1st. This is clear in GIS 22 MA/09 - Implementation of Assessments Conducted by the NY Independent Assessor (NYIA) Based on an Immediate Need for PCS/CDPAS (11/16/2022), The new Practitioner's Statement no longer requires that it be signed by a provider WHO IS ENROLLED WITH THE MEDICAID PROGRAM. See this article. This is because it is not being used as a medical order for home care services. That order will now by issued by the NYIA Independent Practioner Panel after the Clinical Assessment. See here. It is not clear whether, if you use a Physician's order/ M11q instead of the new form, the doctor must have seen patient and signed the form within last 30 days. Beginning Nov. 8, 2021, the form may be signed by a Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant, or Doctor of Osteopathy instead of a doctor. 21 OHIP ADM-04 - Regulatory Changes to PCS and CDPAP Effective November 8, 2021. Attestation of Immediate Need - NEW FORM DECEMBER 1, 2022 - -- With the new NYIA procedures, DOH has issued a new attestation form DOH- 5786 that replaces OHIP-0103). Consumer must sign this form to attest to immediate need. The form requires you to attest that: You have no informal caregivers available, able and willing to provide or continue to provide needed assistance; You are not receiving needed help from a home care services agency; You have no adaptive or specialized equipment or supplies in use to meet your needs; and You have no third party insurance or Medicare benefits available to pay for needed help. FAQs issued in 2019 LCM-02 - Immediate Need for Personal Care Services and Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) - FAQ's clarify that if Medicare or private pay providing some but not all needed assistance, then still qualifies for Immediate Need. FAQ also says the attestation form is "self-authenticating" - DSS cannot demand proof of need if attested to. Also if family cannot continue to provide the assistance, you can still apply. If the consumer writes in any notations on the form, she or he should initial them, and explain the particular facts in a COVER LETTER. NOTE that Attestation Form specifically states may be submitted while applicant in the hospital or a skilled nursing facility. Cover letter that explains why there is an "immediate need" for services and can't wait to enroll in MLTC, status of the Medicaid application if previously approved or filed, how the applicant was managing previously and what precipitated the Immediate Need. whether there are other services in place and if there are informal supports available, or if they were available explains they are no longer available . Married applicants may request spousal impoverishment budgeting in the cover letter and should receive it pending MLTC enrollment as explained in the ADM. This is a change from the State Health Department's earlier policy, which only allowed a married individual to request spousal impoverishment budgeting after he or she was already enrolled in an MLTC plan. Before, many married applicants needed to submit a Spousal Refusal form with the application, and later request spousal impoverishment budgeting. Use the DOH "Request for Assessment" form to request spousal impoverishment budgeting (page 9 of this link). See last bullet of No. 5 above. HIPAA release - OCA Form No. 960 - Authorization for Release of Health Information Pursuant to HIPAA b. What Happens After I Submit the Application Package? Starting Dec. 1, 2022 - the local district must refer the case to NYIA for the assessments. Before, the local district's own nurse did the assessments. See GIS 22 MA/09 - Implementation of Assessments Conducted by the NY Independent Assessor (NYIA) Based on an Immediate Need for PCS/CDPAS (11/16/2022). The LDSS will submit all of the Immediate Need documents to NYIA through an online portal. Once NYIA confirms receipt, the LDSS initiates a 3-way call between the consumer/rep and NYIA to schedule the assessments. The GIS says the consumer should NOT CALL NYIA directly to schedule assessments if an Immediate Need application is filed. In NYC, the HRA Home Care Services Program Central Intake Unit handles all of the actions described above - they receive the Immediate Need application and transmit it to NYIA, and conduct the 3-way call to schedule the NYIA assessments. After the 3-way call, NYC cases get assigned to the local CASA and a worker is assigned to follow up with the consumer about the dates of thh NYIA assessments and also to schedule a 3rd assessment by the CASA caseworker. This is like the old "social assessment" which assessed whether the consumer's home was appropriate for home care, sleeping accomodations for a live-in aide, etc. NYIA will conduct 2 assessments - a Community Health Assessment (CHA) by a nurse and a Clinical Assessment (CA) by a "practitioner" (doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant) who then issues a Physician's Order (PO) for services, if those assessments find the consumer's medical condition is stable. Denials by NYiA - If the medical condition is determined to be unstable for PCS/CDPAP, NYIA sends the consuemr notice with Fair Hearing Rights. 22-ADM-01 p. 7. the LDSS may not authorize services if NYIA makes that finding unless reversed in a Fair Hearing. The LDSS should be tracking the outcome of the NYIA assessments, which it locates in a portal, and under 22-ADM-01, "the LDSS must review the NYIA CHA and PO and determine that PCS and/or CDPAS are appropriate, medically necessary and can reasonably maintain the individual's health and safety in their home." The LDSS then must develop a plan of care. In NYC, a CASA nurse reviews the NYIA assessments and develops the plan of care. S/he may contact the consumer or their family for more information and may do a home visit. If the DSS' plan of care is for more than 12 hour/s day (24-hour care), the LDSS must refer the case back to NYIA for an Independent Medical Review. See 22-ADM-01. Regardless of the outcome of that review, the LDSS proceeds to authorize the care. If referring for the IMR will cause delays, the LDSS has discretion to authorize a "temporary" plan of care that is more than 12 hours. 18 NYCRR 505.14(b)(4)(vi). However, HRA informed advocates that as of 11/30/22 there is no mechanism for HRA to do this, and the current system is not set up to allow for it. Denial Notice - If the DSS determines the consumer is not eligible for PCS or CDPAP, it issues notice with fair hearing rights. 22-ADM-01 p. 11. NYLAG comment: If NYIA has determined the consumer's condition is medically stable, presumably the DSS should not be permitted to deny services on the basis that the condition is NOT stable. DEADLINES - Under the Immediate Need law and regulations, and 2016 LCM-02 - Immediate Need for Personal Care Services and Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP). the local district is required to process the Medicaid application and the assessment of need for home care concurrently. Within FOUR days of receiving the application -- the local Medicaid office must determine if the application is complete; Within SEVEN CALENDAR days of receiving a complete application -- the local Medicaid office must reach a determination as to eligibility for Medicaid; Within TWELVE CALENDAR days of receiving a complete application, the local Medicaid office must: determine whether she is eligible for personal care or CDPAP services, authorize services and notify the applicant of the amount authorized. THIS DEADLINE remains the same even with NYIA conducting the assessments. NYLAG COMMENT: Even before Dec. 1st, HRA and other LDSS have not met these strict deadlines for authorizing Immediate Need, and it is likely that this will cause further delays. The Medicaid office must assign the case to a contracted Medicaid agency or CDPAP fiscal intermediary and arrange for services to be provided “as expeditiously as possible." After the home care services are provided for 120 days, the individual will receive a notice from New York Medicaid Choice, a state contractor that serves as the enrollment broker for all managed care programs. The notice will explain that she needs to select and enroll in an Managed Long Term Care (MLTC) plan within 60 days, and if she does not select one, she will be auto-assigned to one. Once enrolled in the MLTC plan, the consumer has Transition Rights. The new MLTC plan must continuethe same services and hours for 90 days. See here. After the Transition Period is over, beware that the rules are changing, allowing MLTC plans to more easily reduce hours than before. See here. C. Who can Use Immediate Need, beside NEW applicants for Medicaid? Besides new Medicaid applicants and those with Medicaid applications pending, described above, any adult who has Medicare who needs Medicaid home care can use these procedures, including individuals who: Already have Medicaid but not coverage of community-based long term care (they "attested" as to the amount of their assets and did not submit "Supplement A" with the application Supplement A (DOH-5178A)(alternate languages and formats of forms posted at this link). Note that Supplement A has been required with all Medicaid applications since March 2022. See here. Anyone applying for Medicaid should receive this Fact Sheet (page 2 of this link) explaining their right to apply under the new procedures and request Immediate Need Personal Care or CDPAP services. This is required by the ADM. Note: the Fact Sheet includes a web address to download the Medicaid application forms at the NYS Dept. of Health website, but not the M11Q or any other form to be used as a physician's order. Have Medicaid coverage with eligibility for coverage of community-based long term care (they verified assets) but are not in an MLTC and have no home care. Have a Medicaid case at NY State of Health (NYSoH or the "Marketplace" or "Exchange") under the Affordable Care Act, who are not in a managed care plan. Their Medicaid must be transferred from NYSOH to the Local Medicaid office through procedures described in pages 5-6 of the ADM - the transfer can only be initiated with an email to hxfacility@health.ny.gov. PART 2 -- Law, Regulations, State & NYC HRA Directives Implementing Immediate Need 2015 - NY Soc. Serv. L. §366-a(12) amended to require the State Medicaid agency to set up procedures for Medicaid applications to be processed and approved in SEVEN CALENDAR DAYS if there is an "immediate need" for personal care services or consumer-directed personal assistance services (CDPAP). It took a year for the State to set up these procedures, after soliciting comments from the public. 2020 amendments to the Social Service Law establish an Independent Assessor -- with a nurse from Maximus to conduct the nurse assessments and a doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant from Maximus to conduct a Clinical Exam and prepare medical orders, which will replace the M11q. This huge change is being phased in starting May 16, 2022, but will begin for Immediate Need applications on July 1, 2022. See more here. See DOH directives 22-OHIP/ADM-01 (April 2022) and GIS 22 MA/09 - Implementation of Assessments Conducted by the New York Independent Assessor (NYIA) Based on an Immediate Need for PCS/CDPAS (PDF) (11/16/2022) Regulations require "no later than twelve calendar days after receipt of a complete Medicaid application from such an applicant, the social services district must..." refer the individual for assessments, and promptly notify the recipient of the amount and duration of personal care services to be authorized and issue an authorization for, and arrange for the provision of, such personal care services, which must be provided as expeditiously as possible. 18 NYCRR 505.14(b)(6) and (7) (PCS) and 505.28(k) an (l) (CDPAP), published in NYS Register 5/25/2016.- further amended in 2021 to implement 2020 changes.

PART 3 -- BACKGROUND: Causes of Delays for new Medicaid Applicants to Enroll in Managed Long Term Care Plans - Before the New Law Normally Medicaid office has 45 days to process an application -- and sometimes 90 days. See this article on these deadlines and this article for information about how and where to file these applications in New York City, and this fact sheet with tips for applications.. It can often take longer. Before the July 2016 directive, the "front door" was closed at the local Medicaid program to request Medicaid personal care services from the local Medicaid agency. Anyone who had Medicare had to apply for Medicaid at the local Medicaid agency, but then had to enroll in a Managed Long Term Care plan to get home care. July 2016 - NEW 7-DAY APPROVAL TIME FOR MEDICAID! Next, most adults who have Medicare must request a "conflict free" eligibility assessment from New York Medicaid Choice, a company under contract with the NYS Dept. of Health. This company determines if they are eligible for long term care. It can take 2 weeks to set up that assessment. If they are found eligible -- Next they must contact different managed long term care plans and request they schedule an assessment in the home, at which time the individual can enroll. However, the plan must submit the signed enrollment forms by the 18th of the month in order for enrollment to start on the 1st of the following month. IF they miss that deadline, it delays enrollment in an MLTC plan a whole month. See contact lists for MLTC plans here (look only at Long-Term Care Plans at that link) Further delays can be caused it the individual has a "spend-down" -- then the plan must often request the local Medicaid program to change the Medicaid eligibility codes in the computer system - a process called a "conversion." These procedures and forms are explained in this fact sheet. MORE BACKGROUND: State Law Historically Authorized Temporary Services Pending the Medicaid Application -- Litigation Challenged Amendments to the Law A lawsuit filed in 2007 and still pending -- Konstantinov v. Daines -- asserts that Medicaid services must be authorized while a Medicaid application is still pending, before it is accepted, if there is an immediate need for services. The lawsuit focuses on Medicaid personal care services, and was brought before the transition to Managed Long Term Care. Since the lawsuit was filed, the legislature has amended the state law upon which the lawsuit is based repeatedly, most recently in April 2015. The state contends that the 2015 amendments to state law eliminate the authority for providing any Medicaid applicant with services before their application is approved. However, the 2015 amendments now require new procedures to approve Medicaid applications in just seven days. As of December 21, 2015, these procedures are still not established. In 2015, the State had reminded local Medicaid offices of procedures in a directive, GIS 15 MA/011 - Reminder of Expedited Authorization Process for Medicaid Recipients with Immediate Need for Personal Care Services -- PDF. These only helped people who already had Medicaid. Before 2016, however, there was no way to speed up the processing of the Medicaid application faster than 45 days. Brief history of lawsuit A 2010 court Order directed the NY State Dept. of Health to establish a procedure for certain needy Medicaid applicants and recipients to obtain immediate temporary personal care services while their Medicaid application was pending. Konstantinov v. Daines, 2010 WL 7746303 (N.Y. Sup. 2010, Hon. Joan Madden). The State was further ordered to provide Medicaid applicants with notice of the availability of these services. The lawsuit was brought by Aytan Bellin, Esq., a private elder law attorney practicing in Westchester and New York City. The Court order was upheld on appeal in 2012. 101 A.D.3d 520, 522 (1st Dept. 2012). In 2013 the State moved to vacate it because of new legislation enacted -- SSL § 364-(i)(7), which the State contended limited the impact of the decades-old law upon which the Court's 2010 decision was based. That law -- NY Social Services Law Sec. 133, in its current form states: "Upon application for public assistance or care under this chapter, the local social services district shall notify the applicant in writing of the availability of a monetary grant to meet emergency needs assistance or care and shall, at such time, determine whether such person is in immediate need. If it shall appear that a person is in immediate need, emergency needs assistance or care shall be granted pending completion of an investigation. The written notification required by this section shall inform such person of a right to an expedited hearing when emergency needs assistance or care is denied. A public assistance applicant who has been denied emergency needs assistance or care must be given reason for such denial in a written determination which sets forth the basis for such denial." By order dated March 12, 2014, Justice Madden denied the Department’s motion to vacate her July 2010 Order, and ordered the State to propose regulations to implement the Order. Konstantinov v. Daines, 2014 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 1137; 2014 NY Slip Op 30657(U), 2014 Proposed Regulations To comply with the Court Order, the State published proposed regulations to by which Medicaid applicants and recipients may obtain “immediate temporary personal care services,” The regulations were published in the July 16, 2014 State Register p. 20. NYLAG, Empire Justice Center, the Legal Aid Society and other consumer advocates filed comment in support of the regulations, but recommending that the procedure be adapted in light of the sweeping changes in the delivery of Medicaid personal care services. When the 2010 court order was issued, these services were authorized by local county Medicaid programs, such as HRA in New York City. Now, managed long term care plans are charged with authorizing and delivering these services. The proposed regulations would use the old system to provide the temporary services, with the local Medicaid offices conducting the assessment process. Empire Justice Center comments on regulations. NYLAG comments on regulations Comments also filed by the Coalition to Protect the Rights of New York Dual Eligibles and The Legal Aid Society. In February 2015, after reviewing the comments, the State issued revised proposed regulations, specifically citing NYLAG's comments. to the 2014 proposed regulations. Again, NYLAG and other organizations filed comments. 2015 Amendment to State Law and Regulations to Expedite Medicaid Applications in 7 Days -- and Authorize Home Care for those with Immediate Need in 12 Days In April 2015, State law was amended in to require the State Dept. of Health to establish procedures to process a Medicaid application in SEVEN DAYS of the filing of a complete Medicaid application, for any applicant with an immediate need for personal care or consumer-directed personal assistance services. N.Y. Social Services Law §366-a(12). The State Department of Health went back to court contending that this and another change in section 133 of the Social Services Law meant that the State no longer needed to publish regulations establishing an expedited procedure for authorizing personal care services for new applicants for Medicaid. In July 2015, the State Supreme Court Justice hearing the Konstantinov case rejected the State's argument with respect to Medicaid recipients -- those whose applications were already accepted. For Medicaid applicants, whose applications were still pending, the Court "stayed" or postponed the requirement for the State to issue regulations. As to Medicaid recipients -- these persons already on Medicaid -- in immediate need, Justice Madden ordered that the regulatory procedure begun July 2014 continue. That means that DOH was required to issue final regulations concerning Medicaid recipients on July 16, 2015, which is one year after the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published, or must issue a second revised notice of proposed rulemaking on July 16, 2015 with the final Rules to be issued by October 14, 2015. On July 1, 2016 new regulations become effective that will require that Medicaid applications be processed and approved in SEVEN CALENDAR DAYS if there is an "immediate need" for personal care services or consumer-directed personal assistance services (CDPAP). The regulations implement a new law enacted April 1, 2015. NY Soc. Serv. L. §366-a(12). Regulations add new sections 18 NYCRR 505.14(b)(7) and (8) (PCS) 505.28(k) an (l) (CDPAP), published in NYS Register 5/25/2016 The July 2016 regulations were the last in a series of proposed regulations. NYLAG and other organizations submitted comments on many of the draft proposed regulations, such as those published on October 28, 2015 (page 3).

__label__cc	0.62829	0.37171	Ice belt 'encircled Mars equator', etc Here are science news items with my comments in square brackets: Ice belt 'encircled Mars equator', BBC, Paul Rincon, 8 September 2005. ... Europe's Mars Express probe may have found evidence for a band of ice that once spanned the Martian equator. A frozen sea and patterns of glacial activity on the planet may be a relic of this ancient belt of ice, says a top scientist. The ice may have formed just before five million years ago due to a change in the tilt of Mars. This change caused moisture from the poles to be deposited as snow at the equator. The idea is based on work by a team of scientists led by astronomer Jacques Laskar ... Laskar's team has shown that the tilt of Mars on its axis can vary between 15 degrees and 40 degrees, largely because of its lack of a significant moon. By contrast, the Earth varies little from its tilt of 23.5 degrees ... [See also Science Daily. Note what would happen if Earth did not have such "a significant moon." See section PE 6.3.4.3.2.1 of my "Problems of Evolution" book outline, "Earth's fitness for life ... Moon ... Stabilises Earth's axial tilt".] Genes Show Signs Brain Still Evolving, ABC/AP, Lauran Neergaard, September 8, 2005. ... The human brain may still be evolving. So suggests new research that tracked changes in two genes thought to help regulate brain growth, changes that appeared well after the rise of modern humans 200,000 years ago. ..."We, including scientists, have considered ourselves as sort of the pinnacle of evolution," noted lead researcher Bruce Lahn ... whose studies appear in Friday's edition of the journal Science. ... Lahn and colleagues examined two genes, named microcephalin and ASPM, that are connected to brain size. ... Scientists attempt to date genetic changes by tracing back to such spread, using a statistical model that assumes genes have a certain mutation rate over time. For the microcephalin gene, the variation arose about 37,000 years ago, about the time period when art, music and tool- making were emerging, Lahn said. For ASPM, the variation arose about 5,800 years ago, roughly correlating with the development of written language, spread of agriculture and development of cities, he said. .... That the genetic changes have anything to do with brain size or intelligence "is totally unproven and potentially dangerous territory to get into with such sketchy data," stressed Dr. Francis Collins ... "There's just no correlation," said Duke's Wray, calling education and other environmental factors more important for intelligence than DNA anyway. ... [See also: BBC. It does not follow that just because there are variants in these genes that "The human brain may still be evolving", i.e. it could just be fluctuations around a mean. The fact is that the human brain reached its current size in anatomically modern Homo sapiens ~100,000 years before behaviourally modern Homo sapiens appeared ~40,000 ago.] Fossils reveal prehistoric flying giants, ABC/Reuters, September 9, 2005. The giant reptiles [pterosaurs] that flew above the earth until about 65 million years ago could have grown to twice the size originally thought with wingspans of at least 18 metres, a palaeontologist says. That would be almost the same width as the 19.5 metre fully-extended wingspan of an F-14 Tomcat fighter aircraft and roughly five times bigger than an albatross, which ranks among the birds with the largest wingspans in the modern world. Dr David Martill ... says his research on pterosaur wings appeared to solve the problem of how such enormous creatures managed to take to the skies and stay there... Flying reptiles just got bigger, BBC, onathan Amos, 8 September 2005 ... But there was nothing ugly about the way they moved through the air, according to expert Dr David Martill ... Their ability to utilise air currents, thermals and ground effects would astonish aeroplane designers, he said. "Pterosaurs were beautifully engineered," ... "Their skeletons were exceedingly light: their bones were very thin and hollow, and those hollows were filled with an air-sack system. They'd also got rid of their reptilian scales and their wing membrane was very, very thin. "All this meant there wasn't that much weight to get off the ground, and so they probably flew really rather well," ... there is evidence from rare fossil eggs containing pterosaur embryos which suggests the creatures could fly soon after hatching. If this was the case, scientists say, it was a remarkable achievement because the wings would have had to have grown from just a few tens of centimetres in length to several metres without interrupting the animals flying capability. "The equivalent of an aircraft engineer trying to convert a Eurofighter into a jumbo jet while it was still flying," enthused Dr Martill. ... [More evidence that pterosaurs were primarily gliders from high points, since otherwise there would seem no point, and in fact a major disadvantage, to having such a huge wingspan? The language of intelligent design is again noted!] Scientists given go-ahead for 'dual mother' embryo, ABC, September 9, 2005. ... A team of scientists in Britain have been granted official approval to create a human embryo using genetic material from two women, raising the future prospect of babies with a pair of mothers. The group from Newcastle University in Britain has been given the green light by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA)... The scientists will transfer the pro-nuclei - the components of a human embryo nucleus - made by one man and woman into an unfertilised egg from another woman. This technique is intended to help prevent mothers from passing on so-called mitochondrial diseases on to their unborn babies, genetic conditions caused by DNA outside the nucleus of a cell, in the mitochondria. .... Professor John Burn ... stressed that the new tests would not lead to "designer babies". "From a philosophical or medical point of view there is no reason why we should not do this," he said. "I would use the analogy of simply replacing the battery in a pocket radio to explain what we are doing. You are not altering the radio at all -- just giving it a new power source. .... However, campaigners expressed concern at the project. "This shows once again that the HFEA does not have any regard for public consultation and the views of the public," Josephine Quintavalle from the Comment on Reproductive Ethics group ... Embryo May Be Created From Two Women, ABC News, September 9, 2005 ... The application was initially rejected because of legislation prohibiting the alteration of the genetic structure of a cell while it is forming part of an embryo, the [HFEA] ... said ... he scientists eventually were given permission after reviewing the legislation. ... No treatment exists for mitochondrial diseases, which arise from DNA outside the nucleus and are inherited separately from DNA in the nucleus. ... The research does not involve human cloning. It would use normal IVF procedures, but before the sperm and egg fused, components would be implanted into a healthy female egg. ... [See also BBC & The Guardian. Agreed that this is not to create "designer babies" in the sense of improving humans (which I am against), but treating a disease, i.e. restoring humans back up to the normal level (which I am for). If mitochondria are all identical (apart from disease) then it is hard to see what is wrong with inserting disease-free mitochondria from another woman into an embryo. However, it worries me that from a scientific materialist "philosophical ... point of view" we are all just spare parts cobbled together by a `blind watchmaker', so then there would be no reason why we should not further interchange spare parts, like "simply replacing the battery in a pocket radio."] Stephen E.

The absence of sturdy evidence that asymptomatic persons are a driver of transmission is one other good reason for pausing the roll out of mass testing in colleges, universities, and communities. Testing must be reintegrated into medical care with scientific and public health oversight and case definitions based on scientific prognosis. And overdiagnosis can lead to overtreatment and related unwanted side effects. An asymptomatic condition could refer to any considered one of a variety of totally different conditions. It’s typically exhausting to know whether an asymptomatic situation will progress. Doru Paul, MD, is triple board-licensed in medical oncology, hematology, and inside medication. He is an affiliate professor of clinical medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College and attending physician within the Department of Hematology Oncology on the New York Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center. Lynne Eldrige, MD, is a lung cancer physician, affected person advocate, and award-profitable creator of “Avoiding Cancer One Day at a Time.” Examples Of Asymptomatic Illnesses In every category most people will not progress to the following. You are more likely to progress if you’re weak, particularly if you are over 60. If you are in thevery susceptible groupand you assume you could have even mild COVID-19, you should search recommendation. If your signs are predominantly average, but you’re clearly getting worse and begin to get signs that seem to suit ‘severe’,do not wait to hunt urgent assist until you’ve more of the severe signs. You could move from gentle to average symptoms, then again to mild. Most people who find themselves younger and healthy are likely to be in group one or two . But, if you’re in crowded areas like a parking lot or trailhead, Beckham urges folks to wear masks. Like many medical specialists, Beckham has canceled his plans to rejoice Thanksgiving with extended family. He and his wife will celebrate on their own with their youngsters this yr. How Have Folks Been ‘classifying’ Covid Metronidazole shouldn’t be used as sole therapy to treat asymptomatic people, since this drug usually fails to eradicate organisms from the lumen. If the patient recovers from a severe assault, convalescence tends to be long however often without sequelae. Late deaths after convalescence are very uncommon and are associated to myocardial harm, cardiac arrhythmia or cardiac failure. Disease in children is normally milder and dominated by jaundice. , particularly in endemic areas, are widespread, leading to excessive levels of immunity within indigenous populations. When illness occurs in endemic areas it is typically mild with a mortality price of 5–10%. Your body might struggle off the invader and you could by no means know it was there. Or, you could develop symptoms of the sickness after an asymptomatic phase. Depending on the pathogen, you may be able to unfold the germs to others even though you don’t have any symptoms. “It’s vastly important for individuals to know that there are plenty of asymptomatic folks and there’s plenty of asymptomatic unfold,” Beckham said. Beckham and researchers at his lab examine viruses similar to coronaviruses known as flaviviruses. They embody frequent viruses like West Nile, Dengue, tick-borne encephalitis and Zika virus. Throughout the pandemic, Beckham and researchers in his lab have been finding out numerous features of SARS-CoV-2. He’s assisting with vaccine trials and is main a scientific trial associated to convalescent plasma. Album Evaluation How To Restart Your Apple Watch	cc/2023-06/en_middle_0028.json.gz/line61
__label__cc	0.655404	0.344596	age of fish by length H ow many times have you wished you could find or had taken your scales to weigh a nice catch? Fish were 13–80 cm long and 1–20 years old. So let's take a look at the details. The methods included a growth curve, age-length keys, and a probabilistic method to classify a known total number of fish into ages from samples of the length frequency of the catch. As demonstrated, fish length, weight and sex are slightly superior to otholith morphological features for age classification purposes. Total length is the legal length and it is the maximum length of the fish. Hunt and P. J. Stuart Department of the Environment Marine Fish Division Biological Station St. Andrews, N. B., canada Age am growth stu:Ues of silver hake (M. bilinearis) have been a subject of study for international researchers and have been discussed at several ageing ..orkshops (Hunt. As pointed out by Petrakis and Stergiou (1995), use of the weight–length relationship should be limited to the sizes in the estimation of the parameters. The accuracy and precision of estimates of catch at age from sampled lengths were evaluated. The independent and dependent variables in the model are length (or age) and the corresponding arcsin-square-root transformed proportion of mature fish (Pi). Back-calculates length at previous ages from a data.frame that was primarily created from combineData and digitizeRadii. Fish in the commercial catch were 26–91 cm long and 1–20 years old. The diameter and dry weight of the eggs of haddock, Melanogrammus aeglefinus, are positively correlated with fish length. Why not try this? All lengths have to be smaller than Linf as otherwise the logarithm is not defined. While the method is direct, it has limited use since it r equires raising fish under artificial . We can be 95% confident that the length of a randomly selected five-year-old bluegill fish is between 143.5 and 188.3 mm. The expressions n i. and n. j correspond to the total sample sizes of fish by age class (collapsed over all length bins) and length bin (collapsed over all ages), respectively. Multiplying this factor by the number of fish of each age in the age length key gives the number of fish in each age group, e.g. 80.1% of the variation in the length of bluegill fish is reduced by taking into account a quadratic function of the age of the fish. It can be done by using maximum likelihood. We all know how much a bass can vary in weight related to its length, so some three-year-old largemouths just barely weigh a pound, while others will be well over 1½ pounds. 55: 2105−2116 (1998) Abstract: We introduce a length-based, age-structured model, MULTIFAN-CL, that provides an integrated method of estimating catch age composition, growth parameters, mortality rates, recruitment, and other pa- Table 1. The Devonian Period has been commonly referred to as the age of fish. There were some The exposure of fish to capture, i.e., the value of F at a particular length increases from nearly zero for the smallest size caught to the full value F, and what is required is the mean age (or length) at first capture, which is approximately equal to the age (or length) at which F is half the full value. One can, for a better appreciation of youth or old age of its fish, to convert his real age in its human equivalent. Calculating Fish Weights. The condition factor is usually influenced by age of fish, sex, season, maturity stages, etc. Still, with proper care, goldfish can reach old age. Observation of the Growth of Fish of Known Age Fish of known age are held in a pond or aquarium for a number of years so that length f or a given age may be determined by simply catch ing and measuring t he f i sh per iodically. Fish samples were obtained from a private farm in Lagos state operating a flow-through aquaculture system. Non-linear least squares fitting is the preferred method to estimate growth parameters according to Sparre and Venema (1998). Otoliths were read a second time with access to length and year-class strength information, and ages were treated as known age fish for the length frequency analy-sis. They were reared in three months in 3.2 m 3 fiberglass tanks at a stocking density of 400-fish m¯ 3. Estimation of age composition of fish using Length frequency distribution is common if there is no aging of individual fish using otoliths or tag and recapture methods. View Fish. Abstract. Example 2: Yield Data Set @article{osti_7312272, title = {Estimation of age structure of fish populations from length-frequency data}, author = {Kumar, K D and Adams, S M}, abstractNote = {A probability model is presented to determine the age structure of a fish population from length-frequency data. Here, the n i. are random while the n. j are treated as fixed. Taskavak and Bilecenoglu (2001) presented length–weight relationships for 18 Lessepsian fish species from the eastern Mediterranean coast, 13 … Carry a measuring tape - a cloth one that can be bought in any sewing/craft department. Sci. : 540.2 = 1,080. The fish were individually weighed (wet) to the nearest 0.01 g on an electronic balance and measured (total length) to the nearest milli-meter. Fishes are very popular pets. Length-weight relationships are important in fisheries science, notably to raise length-frequency samples to total catch, or to estimate biomass from underwater length observations. Age Assignment to Individuals. Scale samples for age and growth analysis were collected from each fish in An age-length key can be used to develop a summary frequency of ages for the length sample. For example if a fish has L = 600 mm, S=10 mm, S + = 4 mm, then the length of the fish at the time of formation of first annulus can be calculated as follows: Here the fish shows a non-linear but not directly proportional growth of body and scale. They don't, however, have a reputation for long lives. The relationship between condition and the probability of being mature (adult) was examined in three populations of American plaice (Hippoglossoides platessoides).The effect of condition was tested after first removing the known effects of age and length. Otherwise, the largest fish or the average of the ten largest fish can be used for a small or large sample, respectively. A few subsamples contained fewer than 50 fish, reflecting low abundance on the correspond-ing sampling date. Very easy with our free tool: Kind of fish: Real age: Fishes, the new kind of pets? The above formula works well when fish shows a linear and directly proportional body. A sample label is shown in Exhibit 3. 1976. So much else happens: Plants and animals begin to colonize the land, reefs are being built, continents crash into each other, and mountains form to name a few. On average they will be 6 inches long when one year old, 10 inches at age two, 13 inches at age 3, 15 inches at age 4, and a little less than 17 inches long at age 5. The small, typically orange fish can be found for sale in pet stores or as prizes at carnivals. Take the measurements as described below, and use the following Fish Weight Calculator. The correlations are largely due to the fact that many of the smaller fish that were sampled were 2 years old, and the eggs of these young haddock, which can be regarded as precocious spawners, are significantly smaller and lighter than those of older fish. It is shown that when the age-length key is available, maximum-likelihood estimates of the age structure can be obtained. Back calculation of silver hake length at age from otoliths Introduction by J. J. Parameter estimates from various models of fish length on structure radius or structure radius on fish length are computed internally and used in the back-calculations. Aquat. If mean lengths for age are required for constructing growth curves the age composition data (Table 4.4) MUST be used, NOT the age-length key (Table 4.3). We propose a two-parameter logistic type model for estimating fish length and age at 50% maturity using the nonlinear least-squares method. 1 Published in: Can. Using fish as an example, if you have total length and age and compute a growth rate by dividing total length by age would this "age-specific" growth rate, "absolute" growth rate, etc.? pling date. To reduce the costs of estimating the age of all fish collected (i.e., via direct aging), an age–length key (ALK) is often developed by directly aging only a subsample of fish and estimating the ages of the remaining fish based on observed lengths. The LENGTH-WEIGHT table presents the a and b values of over 5,000 length-weight relationships of the form W = a × L b, pertaining to about over 2,000 fish species. Fish condition can be related to a population's reproductive potential in a variety of ways. The validity of the metapterygoid bone of pike Esox lucius for use in age determination and backcalculation of total length (LT) was evaluated by using tagged pike … One of several back-calculation models, described in bcFuns and Vigliola and Meekan (2009), can be used. Fish really do dominate the oceans during this time period but it is misleading. The final result is shown in Table 4.4. Summary of notations used.. Symbol. The total sample size of the age-length sample is denoted by n ⁠. Oldest fish (if larger than Linf) have to be omitted. In addition, methods have been developed to find the mean length-at-age for the length sample or the CPE for each age from fish in the length sample (Bettoli and Miranda 2001).However, these methods cannot be used to calculate measures of variability for these … BACKGROUND: Length frequency distributions can help in understanding the dynamics of populations, but for them to be truly meaningful an underlying assumption must be met: that is that fish length within each age group is normally distributed around a peak value. Exhibit 2. It is usually being done in cm for the length and kg/ pounds for the weight. The objectives of this study, therefore, to estimate age compositions; and the Von Bertalanffy growth coefficient and asymptotic length of the Nile tilapia stock. A sample of fish will be taken from the river and a regression will be run to predict the mercury concentration of fish that will be … For both sexes combined over the time series, the median length of fish has dropped from 53 to 48 cm, and median age from 8 to 7 years. Scales are collected primarily to determine the age of fish, but may also be examined for growth patterns. For example, in France there are 26 million pet fish and 8 million cats. Salmon age, sex, and length (ASL) data are collected annually from sampled commercial and subsistence harvests, escapement, run timing and abundance monitoring projects in the AYK Region. OBJECTIVE: Age fish using the Petersen Method, length frequency analysis. Petersen method is the simplest to use. Spawning Season, First Maturity Length and Age of 21 Fish Species from the Central Aegean Sea, Turkey Introduction The spawning season and length at first maturity sustainable management of fish stocks within an ecosystem. Many people had a goldfish as their first pet. age fish were those marked at age-0 and recap-tured as age-1, and from a second read of fish aged with otoliths. Description of Different Length Measurements (1) Standard Length (2) Fork Length (3) Total Length 1.3.3 Labeling A three-part label has been developed for this collection effort. J. 1977). In biological studies, length-weight relationships allow variations in fish growth to be tracked, the calculation of condition indexes, and morphological difference between populations from different regions to be compared [ 5, 6, 7 ]. Scientists have discovered that measuring Carbon-14 in the growth bands of a whale shark vertebra can help pinpoint the fish's age. If MATERIALS AND METHODS. Value. However, it is the synergistic combination of both kinds of features that achieves the greatest accuracy (∼75%). Note the fish length on the data sheet in the next fish number of that species. Both of the fork and total length are often being used in conversion tables or charts. It is impossible to measure the age of a fish, so it is decided that the length of the fish will be used as the explanatory variable, as length and age are highly correlated. relationships have been implicated to estimate weight from length [3], estimate the weight-at-age [4].

Feedback that made our day -- and then some! -- from (very) satisfied Overlay Publications customers: "Even though the game seems to get tougher each year, thanks to your superb methods, I ended the year with a profit!" "I cannot really think of any books or publications that I have come across that are more thorough in evaluating the past performances of horses to get to a final decision on what horse to wager on." "Just a quick note to let you know that, over the past two months, I have been using 10-Up, 14-Down and getting amazing results. Since then, I have hit 25.3% of 91 win bets at an average mutuel of $10.94 -- a $1.38 ($1) ROI. The largest win price was $21.40, so it is not just one or two outliers that are making 10-Up, 14-Down work so well. In fact, what really sets 10-Up, 14-Down apart is its ability to find value at relatively low odds. I am so grateful to you for offering your remarkable methods for sale. They are the horseplaying version of E=mc2, and are worth many times their very modest price. In 40 years of thoroughbred handicapping, I have never seen an approach that even comes close to 10-Up, 14-Down. It is easy, fast, and most important: highly profitable!" "I am very satisfied with my purchase. Yours was the best-presented handicapping material that I have ever gotten through the mail...and it has made me think about this game in a new way. People comparing your work with the other stuff being sold out there will be justifiably impressed." "I read your material over my vacation, and thought it was great!" "I want you to know that dealing with you has been the only time in my 29 years of playing this game that I have actually been satisfied with a horseracing-related product that I got through the mail...and I have bought EVERYTHING written about handicapping in the last 30 years. Your products are sophisticated, well-researched, and clearly presented." "Quick-Line is ideal for simulcasting, where it has allowed me to stay in the black. I have not come across any publication that is more thorough in evaluating the past performances of horses to reach a decision about which one to wager on, and to get a positive expectation from that wagering!" "I learned a lot from Overlay Handicapping about looking at the entire field, and narrowing down multiple overlays for win bets. It put me back on track when I was making a lot of losing bets on horses that I should have avoided. This is information that I have been trying to find!" "I had been doing extremely well on route races, but my sprint handicapping had been terrible lately. I went back to Overlay Handicapping and re-read it, and had two straight winning days on sprints! And now I have found that when my route picks agree with your picks, they become even stronger!" "For the first five races I have played, I have had 100% winners! Pretty impressive!" "Nice work with Handicapping Outside the Curve!" "Quick-Line put me on to an overlay that won and paid $19.80! My proceeds from that wager (even at your very sensible edge-based percentage of bankroll) more than paid for your products! (P.S. No, I will not be asking for a refund!)" "I love what you have developed! I never had a methodology to properly assess value until your material. Keep it up!" "Truly a comprehensive and insightful suite of handicapping approaches!" "Last night, I did my pace handicapping the usual way, and picked a horse that I would not have bet. The odds (3-2) were just too low. Then I did your odds-line analysis. What totally amazed me was that you rated the horse as an overlay, even at those odds! (And, as I expected, the horse won going away.) Until now, looking for value in a race was more of an abstract concept for me. But you have shown me how to translate that concept into dollars-and-cents reality!" "After many attempts to use betting lines, FINALLY an objective method that works! Although I have had a return on investment of 20.125% for a decade, your techniques have added a huge new value to my handicapping! Thank you very much!" "My strong suit has always been horses at 5-1 and higher. I am a natural contrarian, so I can find higher-odds winners. It is the horses at 9-2 and below that I just traded money on. When I began supplementing my own methods with oddslines created using the guidance in Overlay Handicapping, I started finding a lot of lower-odds overlays that increased my wins, and also the profit that I take home!" "Your materials are amazing! I am overwhelmed by the depth and quality of your work!" "Great methods! I cannot count how much money I have won at the races utilizing your techniques!" "BRAVO! Overlay Handicapping and Quick-Line are OUTSTANDING! Your materials have been WELL worth their price!" "As a newbie to the game, my horseplaying has benefitted tremendously from your insights!" "Your approach does a great job at uncovering value at low odds! The computer-driven, paceline systems can pick the occasional (unfortunately, very occasional) $30 winner, but rarely identify the overlay that pays $5 to $9, as do your methods. And since the majority of horses pay less than $10, this is really important to me!" "God bless you! I am so pleased to have found you and your products!!!" "Congratulations on solving the riddle of how to find overlays simply for the average horseplayer, for which I have been searching for many years!" "I read all your materials once they arrived. Played races 6-9 at Aqueduct today, and hit three of the four races. I used Overlay Handicapping, and it was dead on. Very happy thus far!" "You have provided a tremendous service to all struggling handicappers on the road to deriving a consistent source of supplementary income from betting on the widely-believed unpredictable outcomes of horse races! Thank you so much for making this information USABLE by the average handicapper in the pursuit of steady profits at the racetrack -- something countless others have had the opportunity of doing, but failed to do for so many years! Congratulations on your ingenuity and resourcefulness!" "You are one handicapper who really gets it! More importantly, you can effectively pass that knowledge on to others in a way that preserves both clarity and profitability!" "I LOVE 10-Up, 14-Down! Such a powerful and quick method! Thank you SO much for this gem!" "My first day at Saratoga, I turned $20.00 into $200.00!" And, although we applauded a recent customer for his optimistic reaction (and appreciated his positive feedback), we also sympathized with him when he told us, "The first time I used your methods was at Del Mar. The first race I played, your methods came up with two overlays at odds of 3-1 and 32-1. My play was going to be the 3-1, but it kept being bet down. So, I was going to put twenty dollars down on the 32-1 shot, but waited too long and got shut out. The horse won and paid $66.00. But I know that your methods work, and that I will get another chance to make money. Thank you so much!" You might also think that there would not be much that a runaway winner of a handicapping contest did not already know, but we received the following e-mail from just such an individual to whom we sent our titles as part of his prize package: "The book that I have wanted to write on handicapping starts with this: If you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide, you can win at the races. And that is why I have gobbled up your publications that you sent me. They are just what the doctor ordered. In sharing your insights on the complexities of handicapping, your publications have been the most rewarding experience that I have had in a very long time." By the way, when a different player won the following edition of that same handicapping contest, we did not even have to send our titles to him, because he had already purchased them earlier! And, in fact, the same thing kept happening in the next FIVE handicapping contests that we sponsored! One or more of the top three finishers in each contest had already ordered our products! Mere coincidences? WE THINK NOT! (And neither did they!) It is ongoing, gratifying experiences and user remarks such as those -- as well as repeat business from multiple people who have ordered our items more than once (including one recent customer who has now purchased our titles four separate times!) so that they could benefit others with them, since they knew that such generosity would not have the slightest adverse effect on their own rate of bankroll growth -- and how many horseplaying "systems" can pass that test? -- that keep us excited about getting the overlay handicapping message out! As they say in the advertising business, "You cannot buy publicity like that!" But, you CAN buy the thoroughbred handicapping guides that prompted these rave reviews, while also saving over 50% off their regular purchase price; getting the security of our 90-day, no-questions-asked, money-back guarantee; AND receiving BOTH our latest handicapping and wagering breakthroughs absolutely FREE!

Their reluctance and later refusal to submit to the authority of the Jesuit Portuguese Vice-Province of China provoked an intense crisis in the Jesuit Mission. This presentation explores the personal conflict between Pereira and Gerbillon, the intervention of the Kangxi Emperor, and the wider significance of this tension in the crucial years of the China Mission.	cc/2023-06/en_middle_0028.json.gz/line89
__label__cc	0.730567	0.269433	Revenants, by Daniel Mills Genre: Alternate History Publisher: Chomu Press Review Posted: 10/22/2014 Book Review by Michael D. Griffiths Revenants by Daniel Mills is a fascinating novel. Pre-colonial New England is the backdrop for this rich and moody tale. Personally being from Massachusetts and having read more than a bit of Hawthorne and other classic New England authors, I would have to say Mills captures the feeling of these early American novels. His work is an obvious tip of the hat to Hawthorne and is done well. The members of the isolated town of Cold Marsh have cut a home out of the stark lonely forest after following their minster Bellringer into the wilds. Life has never been easy for the small town's inhabitants. Just a generation ago, they were forced to commit genocide with the Native American tribe that had once been their friends and allies. Most of the town's men were hiding from dark pasts, even before this horrible massacre and a shadow of dread hangs over Cold Marsh and lurks in the forest which surrounds the small patch of humanity. The clinging fear the village suffers from only increases when some of their young women go missing. One is found drowned, while another has just seemed to have vanished within the endless forest. When young Ruth, the girl promised to marry Edwin, disappears the town has experienced enough and mobilizes to find her. Despite the small hope of success and the inherent dangers of the encroaching woods, three teams of men set off to find the missing girl. The groups are led by Ruth's father, James, Edwin, and Edwin's father William. Each of these men must confront not only the outer forest, but their tangled inner forest as well. William is a forthright and strong man, but has seen the horror of war and knows that his actions in these past conflicts have left a dark mark on his soul. James is barely keeping his sanity intact after the loss of his only child and is willing to go to any lengths to insure her return, even if it means making an alliance with the dark forces that have claimed her. Edwin learns more that he might have wished about the sins of his father when a lone and mutilated native is discovered. Each of these men must battle themselves as much as the harsh environment they have plunged into while they seek poor lost Ruth. The hopelessness of their task mixes with the hopelessness of their chances at redemption. Soon violence and insanity may end up being the only ones victorious. Mills paints an ominous picture of pre-American New England. He seeks to capture the feel of our country's earliest writers and pulls it off with great skill. It is a bleak time, without much light and limited choices for those that struggle to survive on the threatening new continent. The stark realities of puritan living are illustrated well, along with the superstitious fears that cursed those times. This is a fine and enjoyable novel, but if one had to find criticisms they could include a few places were the book had gaps that left the reader wondering what really happened. Others parts, although well written, were predictable. Overall this is a fine novel that would be enjoyable to both fans of horror and historical fiction readers alike. Mills sets off to perform the difficult task of writing in the style of authors that lived centuries ago and succeeds. I look forward to getting a copy of his next project.

__label__cc	0.578449	0.421551	Modern day Lazarus By Socialist Party Zambia \| April 15, 2021 \| Opinions \| No Comments THE ZAMBIAN people are like the beggar Lazarus in the Bible, eating filthy scraps that have fallen from the tables of the rich, Socialist Party general secretary and first vice-president Cosmas Musumali has said. He was speaking at the second of two adoption ceremonies in late March and early April at Kingfisher Garden Court in Lusaka. “The masses of our country have become, as a collective, a modern day Lazarus. And if you are the Lazarus of today, you have no say in your governance. If you are Lazarus, you don’t qualify to be a leader,” he said. “Those who eat at the high table will pretend they will speak on your behalf, that they will bring development to you, that they will be the ones who will take care of you. But this is a lie. It’s evil actually. They only use violence and intimidation. “Enough is enough. You are fed up with being harassed, being abused. This has gone on for too long. They will come with tokens of money, make you drunk, give you some salt, sugar, pieces of chitenge, to buy you off. But you are not that cheap,” he said. “Your status as Lazarus will not change because of that. They are taking away your dignity. They are using your poverty to come back to you with hand-outs. “They come to you to campaign but they don’t have issues to bring to you. They leave you hanging four or five years, but at the last minute they come up with a manifesto. Cut and paste. They know you don’t even have time to read and understand it. That’s what is happening today.” Dr Musumali said the adoption of a further 11 candidates – nine for parliament, one for a mayoral position and one as a councillor – would be the last official event. While there might be “one or two more” candidates, the party was by-and-large through with adoptions. Of the 11 latest candidates, seven are female, with six below the age of 35. Dr Musumali said there was a world of difference between the Socialist Party’s manifesto, pledges and ideas, and parties that had nothing to offer the Zambian masses. “We produced a manifesto two or three years ago and you have had the chance to look at it. This is your manifesto, these are your ideas,” he said. “Those who come to you without ideas are basically saying remain where you are. And because they don’t have much to offer you, they will resort to insults and jokes. The whole campaign becomes a cracking of jokes. Of course, we all like jokes, and at times even insults can be quite interesting.” But he said jokes and insults from ordinary politicians would not put food on tables or build schools. “This has gone on for too long. This has to change. Zambians are fed up with the greedy, irresponsible, corrupt establishment in Zambia. We are taking over,” Dr Musumali said. “The Lazarus of today is saying ‘we want to rule ourselves’, and that is also in tandem with what democracy is. When you go to the villages today, people tell you they are fed up.” Dr Musumali said the Zambian masses were cynical and no longer trusted the political establishment or what politicians had to say. “The people of Zambia feel betrayed. We have been in those villages. My brother, comrade Fred M’membe, more than any Zambian leader, has spent days, weeks, months and years in the villages. He has not been in Lusaka, he doesn’t belong to Lusaka.” Dr Musumali said Zambia was ready for political change. “People want self-emancipation, they want to change their own situation, and the Socialist Party is ready.” Parliamentary adoptees are: Goma Dydas (Chama South), Mary Bukisa (Lukashya), Dorothy Mashingwele (Kabwe Central), Sharon Fulani (Lufwanyama), Ireen Musela (Mufulira), Sharon Muyupa (Kankoyo), Constance Bwalya (Kantanshi), Kalota Morris (Solwezi West) and Stanley Tembo (Kafue). In addition, Moses Makondo will contest to be mayor of Solwezi, and Ngulube Mukuka will stand as a councillor in Kupumaula ward, Kasama Post tags: Development Modern day Lazarus Socialist Party Article by Socialist Party Zambia The Socialist Party is a political formation whose primary mandate is to promote and entrench socialist values in the Zambian society. Anchored on the principles of Justice, Equity and Peace (JEP), the Socialist Party shall transform the Zambian society from capitalism to socialism, building socialism in three key sectors: Education, Agriculture and Health.
