Ranomafana Journal; Whose Forest Is It, the Peasants' or the Lemurs'?
By JANE PERLEZ,
Published: September 7, 1991
RANOMAFANA, Madagascar— Six years ago, Emile Rajeriarison and Loret Rasabo, who like generations of their families lived from the rain forest here, led some American researchers into the tree-canopied habitat they knew so well.
After some days of wading and walking, they spotted what they were looking for: a golden-colored lemur that the reseachers thought was probably extinct but that the men had known since childhood.
The newly discovered lemur -- long nose, bug-eyed primitive primate peculiar to this Indian Ocean island -- added to the 11 species already known in the Ranomafana Forest and convinced reseachers that the forest held one of the greatest unexplored diversities of fauna and flora left in the world.
In May the forest was declared a national park, the newest in Africa and the fourth in Madagascar. An Enigmatic Ecology
For scientists, the park presented a bonanza of unfettered research on one of the world's most enigmatic ecologies. For environmentalists, the park helped put on hold the destruction of Madagascar's forest, which was being cut so fast that scientists reckoned none would have been left by the year 2025. And for tourists interested in an exotic environment, the designation offered an untrammeled destination on the ever shortening list of remote places.
But for the 80,000 peasants who regard the forest as a source of wood for fuel and cleared it to make way for new rice fields, the transformation from usable forest to protected park spelled economic disaster.
The creation of Ranomafana National Park has thus become an example of one of the challenges for environmentalists in Africa in the 1990's: how to give a stake in conservation to peasants who suffer when their habitat is declared off limits.
At Ranomafana, about 240 miles south of the capital, Antananarivo, an unusually aggressive effort is being made to link scientific research and Western touristic pleasure with social benefit to the local people. Training as Guides
"This is not like Yellowstone -- created with no one living around it," said Mark Fenn, an American forester who has worked in West Africa and is now the director of the Ranomafana National Park Project. "We're asking the poorest people in the world to support wildlife. So an objective is to get the villagers to profit by training them as guides, getting them to set up camps for tourists."
Moreover, in an effort to show that the park will help rather than hurt the villagers, the project, which is partly financed by a $3.2 million grant from the United States Agency for International Development, plans to build schools in the villages, is already delivering health services and is searching for broad-scale alternative sources of income for the peasants, like vegetable gardening.
Mr. Rajeriarison, who is 30 years old, and Mr. Rasabo, 29, have dropped their former jobs -- herding cows in the forest and lopping fern trees to sell their trunks as decorative flowerpots -- and become permanent guides. They are being paid about $40 a month by Mr. Fenn's project, almost twice what they were earning before, to share their innate familiarity of the forest with the Malagasy and Western scientists who are beginning to flock here and to other parts of Madagascar. Closed to West for a Time
Situated 250 miles off the coast of Mozambique, Madagascar has long fascinated zoologists, geologists and botanists but was virtually closed to Westerners between 1975 and 1987, President Didier Ratsiraka allied himself with North Korea and the Soviet Union.
But in the last several years, as Mr. Ratsiraka has changed directions toward the West, a new wave of researchers have come to the island that is believed to be a torn-off chunk of Africa. Typical of the unanswered questions about Madagascar is the geological dispute over where it was when it was cast off more than a million years ago. Some geologists maintain that it broke off from what is now Mozambique, while others contend that it was out near Tanzania and floated down.
When Madagascar did split off, only a few types of plants and animals were on board. The flora and fauna were still at a primitive stage of evolution. Thus, the lemurs -- which had been widespread throughout the world -- were able to develop with no competition from higher forms of life, like monkeys.
There are no monkeys and no predators in Madagascar. More than 80 percent of the island's flowering plant species are not found anywhere else. For frog lovers, Madagascar is nirvana: 148 of its 150 frog species are endemic. Rice Is Now Imported
With its bulging population and diminishing supplies of the basic diet of rice -- the country used to be a rice exporter but now imports -- economists and scientists agree that the pressure on the forest that harbors much of this plant and animal life is almost uncontainable. At several spots along the road just north of the Ranomafana Forest, a visitor could hear the thud of falling trees and the swishing sound of an ax. In one place, a team of men and women hauled logs onto a makeshift trolley to sell for fuel.
Mr. Fenn said he believed that the forest here would have survived 10 to 15 years more if it had not been made into a park. And to convince the peasants that it is in their best interest, as well as the scientists, not to cut the trees, he plans to take some of the village leaders on a field trip to the coast.
"There are no trees because there are no seed sources," Mr. Fenn said. "I think I can convince them by taking them to the devastated areas along the coast that were once forest but are now desert."

Das It-Girl, Die Bad Bank: German gets new words
The new version of German's iconic Duden dictionary includes several new words inspired by the financial crisis and a few that reflect 21st century life, such as "twittern" – to twitter.Berlin -- Around 5,000 new words were officially added to the German language on Wednesday as the country's iconic dictionary, Duden, launched its first new edition for three years.
The new version, containing 135,000 words, includes many new words an English-speaker would find familiar, several inspired by the financial crisis and a few that reflect 21st century life, such as "twittern" -- to twitter.
As of today, Germans can now officially have "der Babyblues" and go to "eine After-Show-Party," -- while hoping that it is not "eine No-Go Area."
"Der Nickname" and "Das It-Girl" are other new German words taken from English that have found their way into the language of Goethe.
The financial crisis and its effects account for many of the new German entries.
"Die Bad Bank" requires no translation, and also appearing for the first time are "Kreditklemme" ("credit crunch"), "Konjunkturpaket" ("stimulus package") and "Abwrackpraemie" ("car scrappage bonus.")
High profile tensions with the country's large and poorly integrated Turkish community are also reflected in two new words: "Ehrenmord" ("honour killing") and "Integrationsgipfel" ("integration summit.")
German is infamous for its incredibly long compound nouns, and while no new words challenge the 39-letter monster "Rechtschutzversicherungsgesellschaften," roughly meaning "legal insurance companies," this year's edition has offered "Vorratsdatenspeicherung" or "the saving of data relating to supplies."
The first Duden dictionary, produced in 1880, consisted of a mere 200 pages and 27,000 words, according to the book's website.

1 year later, Bashara case 'open'
Kathy Ryan Staff Writer
write the author
January 24, 2013
Grosse Pointe Park — A long-held sense of security in Grosse Pointe Park was shattered a year ago on the morning of Wednesday, Jan. 25.
The body of resident Jane Bashara was found in the backseat of her SUV, abandoned in an alley in Detroit. She had been strangled and beaten.
Her husband, Bob Bashara, called Grosse Pointe Park police the night before to report her missing. According to Bob Bashara, he came home around 8 p.m. but his wife was not there. Concerned, he began calling her friends. Unable to locate her, he called police.
Within hours of finding her body, media crews, both local and national, descended upon Grosse Pointe Park.
News trucks and reporters became common fixutures for weeks both on Middlesex, where the Basharas lived, and throughout the Pointes.
Within days, Bob Bashara was named a person of interest in his wife's death by Grosse Pointe Park police. Then the case took an interesting turn when Bob Bashara's handyman turned himself into police and confessed to killing Jane Bashara.
Joe Gentz was held by Grosse Pointe Park police for three days before being released. Police gave no explanation for releasing Gentz, while maintaining they were actively investigating the murder of Jane Bashara.
On Friday, March 3, Park police arrested Joe Gentz, and charged him with both first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Almost one year later, no one has been named in the conspiracy case.
As police focused on the murder of Jane Bashara, media outlets began focusing on Bob Bashara, and soon the public persona of Bob Bashara as community volunteer, former Rotary club president, Booster Club member and all-around glad hander began to crumble as details of affairs and alternate lifestyles began to emerge.
As spring gave way to summer, the case remained dormant. Gentz was being tested to determine if he was competent to stand trial, a feud developed between Bob Bashara and his late wife's family and all police and prosecutors would say was the death of Jane Bashara was "still under investigation."
On the night of Monday, June 25, the case was blown wide open when Bob Bashara was arrested by Grosse Pointe Park police and charged with solicitation to murder a witness.
He was taken into custody and held briefly at the Park police station before being transferred to the Wayne County jail. His attorney, David Griem, arrived at the station and emerged shortly after Bashara was transferred out and addressed reporters. He said his client had been charged with solicitation to murder a witness to the murder of Jane Bashara. When a reporter asked for clarification by asking, "But there was only one witness to the murder, and that was Joe Gentz. Are you saying that Bob tried to have Joe Gentz murdered?" Griem slowly shook his head and said, "Even I can't wrap my mind around this."
Shortly after his client's arrest, citing irreconcilable differences, Griem resigned as Bob Bashara's attorney. But that didn't mean Griem was off the case. In October, Griem was charged with attorney misconduct after he supplied the Bashara family with confidential discovery information. He also faced charges he improperly issued subpoenas while representing Bashara seeking information on Gentz in the case of "The State of Michigan v. Robert Bashara." However, at the time the subpoenas were issued, there was no case against Bashara, as he had not been charged with any crime at that point. In November, Griem was fined $8,000 in attorney and court fees after admitting responsibility on a civil contempt charge by Judge Kenney J. King of Detroit's 36th District Court.
Just weeks before, Gentz was found competent to stand trial in the murder of Jane Bashara. A trial date of Jan. 7, was set. But there would be no trial, at least for Gentz. On Friday, Dec. 21, he stood before a judge and admitted he killed Jane Bashara, but had done so "because Bob Bashara promised me money and threatened to kill me." He pleaded guilty to second degree murder in the case, while a charge of conspiracy to commit murder was dismissed.
Gentz will be sentenced Tuesday, Jan. 29, to not less than 17 years in prison and not more than 28 years. He remains in the Dickerson Correctional Facility, pending his sentencing hearing.
Bob Bashara spent his 55th birthday Christmas at the Michigan Department of Corrections intake facility in Jackson. He is now housed at the Oaks Correctional Facility in Manistee. The earliest he can be released is Feb. 24, 2019, but he could remain in prison until 2032.
The question that still lingers is whether Bob Bashara will ever be charged with the murder of Jane Bashara.
All police will say is the investigation remains open.

Noteworthy Articles and Pay Anywhere Reviews
Better Business Bureau: A+ rating – BBB Complaints and Reviews
Amazon – With just 32 reviews recorded, Amazon users have logged more than two dozen detailed 1-star ratings and only 3 (rather generic) 5-star ratings, giving PayAnywhere a total score of 1.5 out of 5 stars. The most common complaints include trouble getting the card reader to work and funds being held without prior warning. "I HAVE TO CHANGE THIS REVIEW!! BEWARE!! THIS WORKED GOOD FOR ME UNTIL I HAD A PROBLEM. I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO EXPLAIN HOW BAD THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS WITH THIS COMPANY!! I DONT WANT TO GO INTO ALL THE DETAILS, BUT…" [Read more ]
Merchant Maverick – PayAnwhere earned 3.5 out of 5 stars for its mobile payment processing service. The company's fees for service are about average – not the highest out there and not the lowest out there. The company also charges a small selection of additional fees for services including chargeback fees, NSF fees and retrieval fees. Unfortunately, this fee schedule was hidden in a downloadable PDF, not in the price list provided on the site. The company provides round-the-clock customer service, but users who run into trouble seem to have trouble with the quality of the customer service. One good thing is PayAnywhere allows prospective customers to try the app before going through the application process. "PayAnywhere seems like another "me-too" mobile payments app. I can't say that it's the best solution out there, and I can't say that it's the worst." [Read more ]
Google Play – PayAnywhere fared well with the Google Play act. It earned 3.8 out of 5 possible stars with 2,440 reviews and more than 100,000 downloads. The feedback seems to run the gamut of joy to pain. Some customers praise the app's performance for its ease of use and effectiveness while other express disappointment. One customer went so far as to say he felt like a ding bat in front of his customers when the app malfunctioned. At the end of the day, when it works PayAnywhere works well and whether or not it works functionality may be beyond the control of the merchant using it. "This app is awesome and makes things a lot easier but here lately I have been trying to sign into my app on my droid razor and my Galaxy note 3 and I keep keeping "Sorry, this account is not associated with any merchant account.'"

Heartwrenching.. yet, really good, this pic.
this is awesome good work.
How one earth did they come up with "Simon Petrikov"?
The name sounds epic when you think of it. Simon was also a great name to give since it means
"To be heard"
Ice King really needs to be heard for once. -_-

Ice King really needs to be heard for once. -_-
My guess is that they just thought of a random Russian name .
Most saddest AT moments of all time.
Such a sad tale TT^TT

The high incidence of PTSD and suicide among veterans has spurred some of the best research on assessment and treatment by the Defense Department (DoD) and the Department of Veterans' Affairs (VA). Their reports on assessment and treatment protocols are vital reading for any psychotherapist treating PTSD or treating clients at risk for suicide. Because of the high rates of suicide and PTSD among veterans, states such as Connecticut have begun requiring psychotherapists to earn continuing education credits in the area of PTSD, suicide and veterans.
This introductory level course introduces psychotherapists to the material put out by DoD and VA concerning assessment and treatment of PTSD and suicidal thinking. The VA is encouraging private psychotherapists to provide mental healthcare to veterans, and this course contains information on how both veterans and private psychotherapists can participate under the auspices of VA healthcare benefits. It also includes the recent changes in eligibility criteria for veterans seeking VA healthcare benefits. Finally, the course provides an extensive list of resources for clinicians and clients for further support and learning about PTSD and suicide.

Cold weather boredom busters By Naomi Leithold
ANIMAL TAILS: TRADITIONAL STORIES AND SONGS, by Lee-Ellen, instrumental accompaniment by Mark Lemaire, Yellow Moon Press, 1989, $9.95 for audiocassette, 1 hour; ages 4-8.
This highly entertaining combination of traditional folk songs (with original verses added by Lee-Ellen) and folktales is sure to capture your child's attention. Lee-Ellen masterfully pulls listeners in with voiced sound effects, vivid descriptions, emotive narration and humorous character voices. In "Why the Bear Has a Short Tail," youngsters are sure to chuckle at her portrayal of the bear as a bumbling fellow. This characterization along with her colorful descriptions such as, "His tail was frozen in the ice, the same way a Popsicle stick is frozen in a Popsicle," will help children "see" the story unfold.
The delightful songs and stories on this tape are augmented by interactive elements. Even wiggly listeners will become engaged as they solve riddles, sing songs and make sound effects. Lee-Ellen adds a spark to many of the stories by cleverly weaving spoken word in with songs. Children are sure to enjoy her rendition of "Froggie Went A-Courtin'." She and Lemaire combine efforts to turn this humorous, traditional song into a multi-textured story with choral telling, interesting sound effects and instrumental support. This well-produced recording definitely deserves a place in your family's audio library.
"Animal Tails" can be purchased online at www.yellowmoon.com.
GREGORY'S SHADOW, by Don Freeman, read by Jim Weiss, Live Oak Media, 2003, $16.95 for paperback book with audiocassette, $25.95 for hardcover book with audiocassette, 12 minutes; ages 3-7.
This gentle, no-frills story follows Gregory Groundhog as he searches for his misplaced shadow. When they are reunited, he vows that he never wants to be alone again. This poses a problem when Groundhog Day rolls around and he wants to please the farmers who are hoping not to see his shadow. Gregory comes up with a thoughtful solution that satisfies everyone.
I've listened to many recordings by Weiss, but I had to check the cover to make sure that he was the narrator. This storyteller of many voices takes on a completely different one in order to create the appropriate mood for this tale. His stodgy narration contrasts well with the mild character voices, thus making it easier for children to follow the plot. The realistic sound effects, including the sound of a page turning used as a page turn signal, lend a three-dimensional quality to this sensitive story. Weiss' emotive telling, along with the background music used to accent feelings and action, add a spark to the muted watercolor illustrations.
Gregory's Shadow can be purchased by calling (800) 788-1121 or online at www. liveoakmedia.com (click on Picture Book Readalongs and then search in Complete List).
SNUG IN A RUG STORIES, by Denise Berry-Hanna, music and effects by Ed Tossing, berryhanna productions, 2001, $15.99 for CD, 1 hour; ages 5-9.
Berry-Hanna designed these five original stories to get children "wigglin', jigglin' and telling stories along with the recording." That they will. Each story has a simple, rhythmic musical chant that youngsters will be able to easily duplicate. Berry-Hanna's expressive, energetic and enthusiastic manner, along with her creatively voiced sound effects, will draw youngsters into these enjoyable tales. Young children will easily identify with the child-friendly stories that infuse imagination into everyday truths.
Many children will find comfort in "William's Blankie," a story about a boy, who appropriately incorporates his beloved blankie into his life as he matures. Youngsters with similar attachments will listen attentively as he tells the woman he intends to marry about his blanket. They will be surprised and relieved to find out that she has one, too. This sweet story ends with the couple dragging their blankets down the aisle and tying them together as a symbol of their love. This tale will help both parents and children to see the transitional object in a new light. "William's Blankie" is just an example of Berry-Hanna's knack to spin insightful tales.
It can be purchased at Women & Children First, 5233 N. Clark in Chicago, and Magic Tree, 141 N. Oak Park Ave. in Oak Park, or online at www.Amazon.com.

Obviously, you bought your Reatta because you wanted to buy a variety of special features and American style both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. You purchased your Reatta because its reliability and a trusted name struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to superior quality auto parts? It's not every day that you find yourself in need of a replacement Air Filter & Cleaner to fix your car or truck. When your Buick Reatta was born, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who wants economical pricing in their automobile.
Did you know that it's not liquid gasoline that's combustible, but it's actually the vapor that it emits? Your Buick Reatta has an internal combustion engine that mixes fuel with air before it detonates, and an air filter needs to remove dust and debris before it is ignited. If your engine did not have an air filter or air cleaner, your fuel would be filled with particulates from outside. This will plug up your injectors and rob your engine of fuel; leading to a lack of power produced by your engine. And unless your Buick Reatta air filter is replaced regularly your engine will be robbed of the necessary air flow needed to maintain optimum fuel efficiency. Clearly, replacement air filters are a necessity for everyone.

Aquila Capital gibt heute bekannt, dass es zwei operative Windparks in Deutschland erworben hat.
(WK-intern) – Das Aquila Capital Windenergieportfolio ist nun zu einer installierten Leistung von rund 720 MW angewachsen.
Aquila Capital acquires two German wind parks – The Alternative Investment Company
Aquila Capital today announces that it acquired two operational wind parks in Germany. The acquisitions increase Aquila Capital's wind energy portfolio to an installed capacity of approximately 720 MW. The wind parks have an installed capacity of 34 MW and 46 MW respectively, making them comparatively large assets within the German wind market.
The wind turbines, which are located in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Brandenburg, were acquired by Aquila Capital from one of Germany's largest project developers. The wind parks were connected to the grid at the end of 2014 and since then have been generating electricity benefiting from a guaranteed feed-in tariff for a period of 20 years. The wind parks will be managed by Aquila Capital's dedicated asset management team.
Boris Beltermann, Head of Solar & Wind at Aquila Capital, said: "We are delighted to have acquired these attractive projects. Their significant size in combination with a stable feed-in tariff will contribute to, and further diversify, our investors' portfolios."
Michaela von Grafenstein, Investment Head Real Asset Group at Aquila Capital, added: "There is strong demand from professional investors for wind projects at attractive sites with good wind resources. The acquisition of these parks highlights Aquila Capital's expertise in identifying and realising attractive investment opportunities in a highly competitive market such as Germany."
The acquisition will further strengthen Aquila Capital's wind energy portfolio to give it an installed capacity over around 720 MW.
The wind parks, located in Mechlenburg-Vorpommern and Brandenburg, were connected to the grid in 2014 and are benefiting from a guaranteed feed-in tariff for a period of 20 years.
The parks will be managed by Aquila Capital's asset management team.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) hospitalization rates and 95% CIs averaged across covariates (sex, race, plurality, palivizumab use, season months, and seasons) for infants from Florida (A) and Texas (B) with siblings, estimated from the discrete survival model. The risk level for 1-month-old term infants (horizontal gray reference lines) is shown, and the estimated age (with 95% CI [black horizontal error bars]) at which the risk for moderate-preterm infants has decreased to the risk level for 1-month-old term infants is indicated (vertical reference lines) (ages 4.2 months in Florida [A] and 4.5 months in Texas [B]).
eAppendix. Additional Details of Statistical Methods
Winterstein AG, Knox CA, Kubilis P, Hampp C. Appropriateness of Age Thresholds for Respiratory Syncytial Virus Immunoprophylaxis in Moderate-Preterm InfantsA Cohort Study. JAMA Pediatr. 2013;167(12):1118-1124. doi:10.1001/jamapediatrics.2013.2636
© 2017
Recommendations concerning the appropriate age threshold for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) prophylaxis in moderate-preterm infants are highly debated.
To determine the age at which moderate-preterm infants' risk of RSV hospitalization has decreased to the risk observed in low-risk term infants.
Design, Setting, and Participants
Retrospective cohort study of Florida and Texas Medicaid fee-for-service billing records matched to birth certificates from Medicaid beneficiaries aged 0 to 12 months with a sibling younger than 5 years and without other indications for RSV prophylaxis between January 1, 1999, and December 31, 2004.
For each state, we used discrete time survival analysis to develop age trend models for RSV hospitalizations for 2 groups: moderate-preterm infants (32-34 weeks' gestational age) and term infants (37-41 weeks' gestational age).
Main Outcomes and Measures
Age at which preterm infants' risk of RSV hospitalization equaled the risk for term infants at age 1 month.
Our cohort included 247 566 eligible infants with 5322 RSV hospitalizations. Preterm status doubled the risk for RSV hospitalization in both Florida (odds ratio = 2.41; 95% CI, 1.85-3.12) and Texas (odds ratio = 1.94; 95% CI, 1.64-2.30). Preterm infants' risk of RSV hospitalization was similar to that for 1-month-old term infants at ages 4.2 months (95% CI, 2.5-5.7) in Florida and 4.5 months (95% CI, 2.8-6.4) in Texas.
Conclusions and Relevance
The age at which moderate-preterm infants showed RSV hospitalization risk similar to their healthy term counterparts supports the more restrictive age thresholds in RSV immunoprophylaxis recommendations. Further studies are warranted to investigate the age-dependent risk of RSV hospitalization in other RSV risk groups.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common pathogen in lower respiratory tract infections in infants.1 Approximately 2 million children younger than 5 years require medical attention and 57 000 are hospitalized owing to RSV in the United States annually.2 The single most important RSV risk factor is age,3 with more than 80% of hospitalizations occurring in infants younger than 6 months.1,4 Other risk factors such as chronic lung disease have been identified, but given their low prevalence, their contribution to the overall disease burden is small.3- 5
Currently, palivizumab (Synagis) is available for immunoprophylaxis of RSV hospitalizations. To address high prophylaxis cost, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Committee on Infectious Diseases limits palivizumab prophylaxis to specific high-risk groups and age ranges during the RSV season.
In optimizing these prophylaxis strategies, there is a continuing debate about the relative importance of risk factors such as heart disease6 and various stages of prematurity.7- 9 The risk of moderate-preterm infants has especially received attention because they constitute about 9% of all births in the United States and are thus the largest target group for prophylaxis.10
Prior to its 2009 update, the AAP recommended that prophylaxis be offered to moderate-preterm infants without comorbidities who were younger than 6 months at the beginning of the RSV season and had at least 2 of 5 qualifying risk factors.11 Infants who met the criteria were allowed to continue prophylaxis throughout the RSV season.11 In 2009, the guidelines were changed, limiting the total number of palivizumab doses to 3 or until age 90 days, whichever comes first.12 The 2009 guidelines continue to require at least 1 additional risk factor to meet criteria for immunoprophylaxis, but they reduce the qualifying risk factors to presence of siblings younger than 5 years or day care attendance. This was done in an effort to simplify recommendations and to give greatest weight to age.13 The change in the AAP guidelines effectively restricts prophylaxis in moderate-preterm infants from up to age 12 months (assuming a 6-month RSV season) to age 3 months.
Arguments against guideline modifications include lack of demonstrated efficacy of 3 doses and the fact that RSV seasons typically last a median of 21 weeks,14 leaving this high-risk group uncovered throughout most of a season.15 In reply, the Committee on Infectious Diseases stated that the modifications were implemented to balance the cost-benefit ratio and that the removed risk factors lacked consistent evidence, while chronological age was well supported.16 Neither the committee nor our literature search was able to identify primary evidence establishing the age by when moderate-preterm infants have developed lung function and immunologic response similar to their term counterparts.
The primary objective of this study was to determine the chronological age at which moderate-preterm infants' risk of RSV hospitalization is approximately equal to the risk observed in term infants at age 1 month, suggesting a loss of high-risk status and thereby establishing an appropriate epidemiologically supported age threshold for palivizumab prophylaxis. We chose the RSV hospitalization incidence at age 1 month as a reference because risk decreases rapidly with increasing age, leaving the youngest term infants as the group with the highest RSV risk that currently is not included in prophylaxis recommendations.
We conducted a retrospective cohort study comparing the age-specific RSV hospitalization risk of moderate-preterm infants aged 1 through 12 months with those of term infants at age 1 month. The study cohort was established from the Medicaid Analytic eXtract (MAX) files for Medicaid fee-for-service beneficiaries for Florida and Texas from January 1, 1999, to December 31, 2004. The MAX database includes demographic data, monthly information on Medicaid eligibility, all claims for inpatient and outpatient services with detail on diagnoses and procedures, and all claims for pharmacy services. Depending on the state, Medicaid covers up to half of all children in the United States, with 1.1 million children in Florida and 2.5 million children in Texas.17
We matched MAX data with birth and death certificate data using social security numbers and dates of birth to obtain gestational age. When based on all vital statistics records, matching proportions in Florida and Texas for the group of infants with a gestational age of 32 to 34 weeks were 55% and 60%, respectively. Infants with a gestational age greater than 37 weeks had match rates of 52% in Florida and 58% in Texas.
This study was approved by the institutional review and privacy boards of the University of Florida, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the Florida and Texas Departments of Health with a waiver of informed consent and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 authorization.
The study population consisted of all infants born between January 1, 1999, and February 29, 2004. All infants were required to start Medicaid eligibility during their birth month and to retain continuous eligibility until at least 1 of the 4 core RSV season months, November through February. Because RSV season length differs, we limited the season to the 4 months that have been consistently in the core season in both states and throughout all study years according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention surveillance data and our own analysis of RSV hospitalization rates.18,19
We included only 2 strata for comparison: moderate-preterm infants with gestational ages from 32 to 34 weeks, in accordance with the AAP guidelines, and term infants (37-41 weeks' gestational age).20 Gestational age in the birth certificates was calculated by subtracting the date of birth from the date of the last normal menses on birth certificates.
Because the current guidelines require presence of 1 additional risk factor, we restricted our study cohort to preterm and term infants with siblings. We established the presence of a sibling younger than 5 years using the date of the last live birth or plurality variable on the birth certificate. We further excluded infants with other AAP indications for palivizumab prophylaxis, including chronic lung disease, congenital heart disease, cystic fibrosis, and immunodeficiency. As described previously, these indications were operationalized in conjunction with the AAP definition using respective diagnoses from inpatient and outpatient visits and pharmacy dispensing data.3
Infants entered the cohort at the beginning of the RSV season and after they had been in ambulatory care for a minimum of 30 days. The latter criterion was used to ensure complete information on palivizumab immunoprophylaxis because inpatient drug administration is not ascertainable from capitated hospital charges. We followed infants until the end of the study-defined RSV season, their first birthday, non-RSV hospitalization, loss of Medicaid eligibility, or death, whichever occurred first. If hospitalized for any reason, infants were allowed to reenter the cohort after 30 days in ambulatory care. Infants could also reenter the cohort for a second season as long as the season started before their first birthday. For computational efficiency, follow-up was segmented into 2-week blocks.
For each 2-week period of patient follow-up, we ascertained RSV hospitalizations using inpatient claims with primary or secondary diagnoses for RSV-related pneumonia (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification code 480.1), RSV bronchiolitis (code 466.11), or other RSV infections (code 079.6).
In concordance with palivizumab dosing guidelines, we considered infants to be receiving prophylaxis for 30 days following a palivizumab-related procedure date or prescription fill date (Current Procedural Terminology or Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System codes 90378, C9003, X7439, 1095X, and 1086X or National Drug Codes 60574411101, 60574411201, 60574411301, and 60574411401). If palivizumab exposure was determined from a prescription drug claim, we required presence of an office visit claim within 10 days to ensure administration.3 We assigned palivizumab exposure to a particular 2-week period of follow-up if at least 7 days were covered by a particular claim. We used the first day of each 2-week period to assign season month and infant age. Owing to sample size constraints, it was necessary to collapse the MAX data race indicator into a nonwhite vs white binary variable.
Separately for Florida and Texas, we developed age trend proportional odds models within a discrete time survival analysis framework21 to characterize the effect of age on RSV hospitalization risk in term and moderate-preterm infants. In addition to term status and time-dependent covariates for age, calendar month, and palivizumab exposure status, we included several baseline covariates to adjust for confounding: sex, race, multiple birth, and RSV season. We equated the moderate-preterm age curve function for RSV hospitalization risk from our fitted model with the corresponding age curve function in term infants evaluated at age 1 month and solved for the preterm age with the same level of risk.
To estimate 95% CIs for our preterm age estimates, we generated 1000 bootstrap samples22 of the original data set and refitted the original age trend regression model to obtain a sample of 1000 age estimates. We then used the 2.5 and 97.5 percentiles from this sample to define an empirical 95% bootstrap CI.22 Further details on the analytical methods are provided in the eAppendix and eReferences in the Supplement.
Finally, to estimate the effect of misclassification of RSV hospitalization on our age estimates, we conducted several sensitivity analyses nesting our age trend risk models within a misclassified outcomes modeling framework.23 Specifically, we assumed that some RSV hospitalizations were misclassified as lower respiratory tract infections because testing for RSV was not done or because respective hospital charges did not assign an RSV-related diagnosis code. We defined several scenarios in which this presumed false-negative rate for RSV hospitalization was set to a prespecified level, either nondifferentially (ie, across the entire study cohort) or differentially within strata of interest. For differential misclassification, we included scenarios in which false-negative rates for RSV hospitalization were set lower in moderate-preterm infants because they were more likely to be tested for RSV than term infants.24,25 In other scenarios, false-negative rates were set lower for younger infants (aged ≤6 months), again owing to more frequent testing for RSV infection compared with older infants (aged >6 months).24,25
All analyses were conducted with SAS version 9.2 statistical software (SAS Institute, Inc) and graphs were created with R version 2.15.0 statistical software (R Foundation).
The Florida and Texas data sets included 566 694 infants, of whom 247 566 had siblings (40.8% in Florida and 47.5% in Texas). These cohorts with siblings included 2.7% and 2.4% moderate-preterm infants, respectively. Moderate-preterm infants had higher rates of palivizumab use, had more RSV hospitalizations, and were more often born as multiplets (Table 1). Palivizumab use was similar between Florida and Texas, with 19.9% and 18.2% of moderate-preterm infants receiving prophylaxis, respectively. The proportion of infants with RSV hospitalizations was slightly larger for Texas (3.1% in moderate-preterm infants and 1.5% in term infants in Florida vs 4.5% and 2.5%, respectively, in Texas), which is consistent with published literature.18,26,27
With a total of 1322 RSV hospitalizations in Florida, the seasonal incidence rates were 6.2 and 13.5 per 100 patient-years for term and moderate-preterm infants with siblings, respectively. Texas had 4000 RSV hospitalizations and incidence rates of 9.4 and 17.7 per 100 patient-years for term and moderate-preterm infants, respectively. Preterm status doubled the risk for RSV hospitalization in both Florida (odds ratio = 2.41; 95% CI, 1.85-3.12) and Texas (odds ratio = 1.94; 95% CI, 1.64-2.30) (Table 2). Consistent with published literature, boys had a higher RSV hospitalization risk in both states.3,28- 33 Palivizumab use reduced the odds of RSV hospitalization in Texas to a magnitude similar to clinical trials, but the 95% CIs in Florida were wide owing to a smaller sample size. As expected, we observed a pronounced decreasing age trend in RSV hospitalization risk relative to 1-month-old infants.
The Figure shows incidence curves derived from our multivariate model averaged across the 5 study seasons, sex, singletons and multiplets, race, and palivizumab use. Preterm infants' risk of RSV hospitalization was similar to 1-month-old term infants at ages 4.2 months (95% CI, 2.5-5.7) in Florida and 4.5 months (95% CI, 2.8-6.4) in Texas. The difference between these age thresholds was not statistically significant. In 1-month-old term infants in Florida, the seasonal incidence rate for RSV hospitalization was 12.6 (95% CI, 10.1-15.8) per 100 patient-years in comparison with the preterm risk of 30.1 (95% CI, 21.4-42.4) per 100 patient-years. At age 4 months, the risk for preterm infants had decreased to 13.1 (95% CI, 10.0-17.2) per 100 patient-years. In Texas, RSV hospitalization risks for term and preterm infants at age 1 month were 17.4 (95% CI, 14.8-20.4) and 33.5 (95% CI, 26.6-42.2) per 100 patient-years, respectively. The risk in preterm infants at age 4 months had decreased to 18.3 (95% CI, 15.4-21.7) per 100 patient-years.
Finally, potentially missed RSV hospitalizations owing to lack of testing or to incorrect International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification coding showed little effect on age threshold estimates even if differential missingness by term status or age was considered (Table 3). For example, under the assumption that 20% of all RSV hospitalizations were missed for preterm infants and 30% were missed for term infants, age threshold estimates changed only slightly to 4.39 and 4.48 months in Florida and Texas, respectively.
To our knowledge, this is the first cohort study that addresses the age-dependent risk of RSV hospitalization for moderate-preterm infants in comparison with their term counterparts. Prior evidence on a prophylaxis age threshold is based on the FLIP and FLIP-2 studies, both prospective cohort studies of moderate-preterm infants that used an arbitrary 10-week age cutoff to examine the effect of age on RSV hospitalization risk.28,29,34- 36 These studies report a 3- to 4-fold increased RSV risk for premature infants younger than 10 weeks compared with those aged 11 to 26 weeks before the start of the RSV season.
Our findings support the 2009 decision to restrict palivizumab prophylaxis to lower age thresholds. Assuming a 30-day effectiveness, palivizumab administration at age 3 months would be expected to provide coverage until the estimated 4.2- or 4.5-month age threshold. While the magnitude of risk difference from healthy infants needed to justify prophylaxis is debatable, cost-benefit considerations preclude palivizumab use beyond an age at which preterm infants outgrow their increased risk for RSV hospitalization. Given the steep decrease in RSV hospitalization in preterm infants, numbers needed to treat will increase accordingly and thus greatly affect economic considerations.
We restricted our comparison to infants with siblings to resemble the guidelines and allow for an equitable scenario of reimbursement policies. Term infants without other indications that would qualify as risk factors are never considered eligible for immunoprophylaxis regardless of exposure to RSV carriers; thus, those at highest (but accepted) risk ought to be used to determine when preterm infants exceed the risk. Clinically, it is important to note that sibling status doubled the RSV hospitalization risk of both term and preterm infants (Florida: odds ratio = 1.81; 95% CI, 1.54-2.13; and Texas: odds ratio = 2.00; 95% CI, 1.69-2.37), emphasizing the importance of hygiene and other means of avoiding transmission.
Our findings correspond to previous reports on age effects of RSV risk. At age 6 months, our model estimates a 60% to 70% decrease in risk compared with 1-month-old moderate-preterm infants, which approximates the age effect reported in the FLIP studies.28,29,34- 36 An analysis of the National Hospital Discharge Survey estimated the annual RSV hospitalization rate for the same study years at approximately 5.5% for infants younger than 3 months compared with approximately 3.5% for infants at ages 3 to 6 months, again of similar magnitude as the general age effects in our study.37 Of note, our incidence estimates are higher because they were restricted to the RSV season and presence of siblings.
The strengths of this study include its massive sample representing infants of 2 large states. Despite pronounced differences in RSV epidemiology in Florida and Texas, estimated age thresholds were very similar, supporting the generalizability of our results. We maximized the accuracy of gestational age estimates by linkage to birth certificates. We excluded all other AAP indications for palivizumab prophylaxis and adjusted for known RSV hospitalization risk factors that were available in the MAX claims database. Finally, we were able to ascertain and adjust for palivizumab prophylaxis, which further validated our analysis as effectiveness estimates supported successful adjustment for confounding.
Our definition of siblings captured children born to the same mother but may not have accurately identified children who live in the same household. However, presence of siblings as measured in our study was a significant risk factor in our analysis of RSV hospitalization risk, replicating previous findings in which this information was obtained via parent interview.28,29 Furthermore, with the study's focus on presence of siblings in both comparison groups, it is unlikely that misclassification would have occurred differentially. We were unable to obtain information on day care attendance, but the probability for attendance by 1-month-old term infants as well as preterm infants in the age range relevant to our analysis may be low and thus have little effect on this analysis.
While the AAP currently does not consider risk factors other than siblings and day care attendance, multifactorial risk scores to identify high-risk moderate-preterm infants have been suggested.32,38- 43 If the rapidly changing age effect is appropriately captured in such models, they might present a viable alternative to the currently used fixed age thresholds and aid in optimizing palivizumab use. However, following the same rationale as used in our study, preterm infants identified to be at high risk should be compared with term infants with the same risk factors (such as smoking household members) to determine equitable age thresholds for prophylaxis.
This study was conducted in Medicaid enrollees who are at higher risk for RSV hospitalization,44 but the relative comparison between term and preterm infants should not be affected as demonstrated with the stratification between Florida and Texas. Thus, while the age threshold should be similar across infant populations, the exact RSV incidence rates for term and preterm infants at various ages may be different and may result in different estimates of numbers needed to treat.
Finally, previous studies have found that Medicaid records, although inferior to hospital-based medical records, do not maintain gross diagnostic errors, but clinical detail may be lost.45- 48 Importantly, testing for RSV as well as respective coding of the pathogen in hospital billing may not always occur, resulting in an underestimate of RSV hospitalization risk. We tested for the effect of missed RSV hospitalization if occurring at random or preferentially in preterm or younger infants. All scenarios resulted in estimates within the 95% CIs of the original age threshold, suggesting little effect of misclassification within the range of tested scenarios.
Age has a strong effect on RSV hospitalization risk in both term and preterm infants. The age at which moderate-preterm infants showed RSV hospitalization risk similar to their healthy term counterparts supports the AAP's decision to lower the age threshold for RSV immunoprophylaxis. Further studies are warranted to confirm our findings and investigate the age-dependent risk of RSV hospitalization in other RSV risk groups.

Sagittarius Ox
Chinese Astrology describes the Ox as an adaptable and dependable personality that is a deep and methodical thinker. These reliable and thoughtful character traits are believed to be passed on to all those born in their astrological year. When this applies to a Western Astrology Sagittarius, the Ox's influence of versatility and reliability are quite strong. A Sagittarian Ox is usually friendly, honest, considerate and openminded about most things. They are a little reserved but do enjoy communicating with others and discussing many of the questions that life in general presents.
Sagittarius Ox Traits
A Sagittarius Ox is the kind of person that always looks for the good in other people. They are not easily fooled by situations but will try to stay impartial and not prejudge when assessing others. They appear to have good instincts and will generally follow them to evaluate situations as well as individuals. Sagittarian Ox's have fairly optimistic and genuinely helpful temperaments and do not have a problem fitting in anywhere. They are hard workers who normally enjoy work that is productive and challenging as they like to keep busy. These Sagittarian's like habitual activities but do not like jobs that involve doing the same thing every day.
The Sagittarian Ox is mainly straightforward and uncomplicated, they are not argumentative and do not tend to be too demanding of others. These personalities will sometimes find it difficult to share their anxieties as they are inclined to keep things bottled up. A Sagittarius Ox can be a secret worrier and may occasionally become short tempered if they have things on their mind. For the most part these characters are cheerful and seem to take life at a steady pace. They do like the security of routines and familiar surroundings but their openmindedness makes them fairly flexible and tolerant with changes. They are always willing to try new things and listen to different ideas and views.
Family is important to a Sagittarius Ox and they attempt to make it top of their list of priorities. They will often build their social life around family members and stick to having just a few close friends. The Sagittarian Ox is not overly sociable and will usually prefer the company of others who know them well. In personal relationships they are kind, loving, generous and surprisingly playful. Their normally slightly repressed emotions are free to unfold in soul mate relationships. With the right partner they can relax enough to get close and open up.
Sagittarius Ox's are mainly forthright and respectful so people can be quite taken aback when they are not. These Sagittarian's weakness of personality is the tendency to be a bit outspoken. Sometimes their shy easygoing nature's are angered by something or someone and they will retaliate. A Sagittarius Ox will on rare occasions lose his or her cool and will become blunt at their best and disrespectful at their worse. They can be very hurtful with words but do not often mean what they say in anger. They do have to be really irate for this weakness to surface.
Sagittarius Ox Compatibility (Love & Friendship)
Sagittarius Ox's are great friends to have around. They always see the upside and are willing to lend a hand to a friend or family member in need. Sagittarius Ox just want to have a good time with little to no drama involved. They don't have much patience for overly emotional individuals or those who crave unnecessary drama in their lives. The Sagittarius Ox will tend to hold his or her tongue rather than confront an annoying individual, not because they are afraid to say what they mean, but because they find it a waste of their energy. This is not exactly the sign to talk out your problems with. They tend to be emotionally detached and have a hard time understanding why others wallow in their own emotions so much.
Members of this sign enjoy a certain level of freedom and adventure, but they don't mind frequenting the same places often as long as there is new conversation to be made. Sagittarius Ox are just as fine hiking through the streets of a foreign city as they are watching sports with friends at the familiar neighborhood bar. They just want to take it easy and enjoy each moment as it comes and goes.
Many people find themselves attracted to Sagittarius Ox simply for their easy-going nature and love of life. In return, Sagittarius Ox are attracted to those who offer them a sense of fun and adventure, or challenge and romance. As usual, they don't spend a lot of time contemplating relationships; they go with their guts. More so than their peers, members of this sign tend to find themselves in relationships with those that don't fit their personality well. Sagittarius Ox's would be wise to take their time finding the right person to settle down with.
Sagittarius Ox Business (Career & Goals)
Whatever career path a Sagittarius Ox decides to follow they should be sure that there is some level of adventure in it. Sitting at a desk all day would only fit if the work itself captured their interests. Otherwise, Sagittarius Ox are simply not suited for routine work. Their work ethic will keep them showing up, but the boredom of stale, unexciting work will slowly eat away at them, causing them to become restless procrastinators. On the other hand, the work they do doesn't have to be spectacular in nature to be interesting. Many "normal" careers that carry a sense of change day to day are excellent fits for this sign, such as police officer, mechanic, engineer, real estate agent, or doctor.
The one career that Sagittarius Ox particularly excel at is in the role of a judge. Sagittarius Ox have the ability to detach emotions from logic and also have a genuine desire to see a fair and equitable outcome in difficult situations. The pressure of making tough decisions doesn't bother them as much as it does for other signs, and they can usually find a way for everyone to be happy without anyone feeling cheated. They harness a very rare set of qualities that fit perfectly in difficult roles such as courtroom judge, mediator, or as a leader of people.

Location Poor breakfast ,steep stairs,tired atmosphere
everything was good not really, but could have had tea/coffee making facilities
Impressive exterior facade, looks like a castle rooms look a bit outdated, too much carpet everywhere...
Sluis is a lovely town, with plenty shops, restaurants and wonderful scenery. The Dikke Van Dale is the best hotel in the area. No criticisms at all
everything was comfortable and the staff very good
The location at edge of city was great, and Sluis itself a charming, engaging community. Breakfast was excellent. Tho room was spacious it had pedestrian design and the twin beds were a downer. Charging for use of Wi-fi was off-putting. Price was much too high for the quality of the lodging.
We went to have dinner in restaurant Oud Sluis The breakfast was too simple
Large comfortable room and good position of the Hotel. The male receptionist was very helpful. Excellent parking facilities. On Saturday night there was a serious amount of noise from a dance band (So much we could not use the room) We raised the issue both verbally and in writing but have not had a reply after two weeks (the time they set themselves)
A very nice building from the outside Very dusty, should have been cleaner.
The breakfast was lovely. Check in was quick and easy. Lift available. Rooms were clean. Bathroom beautiful. Hotel has a nice bar and spa. The rooms were very small. We could not get the internet here, even though we asked the staff. They told us not at this time. Short changed twice in the bar.
This is an excellent hotel in the middle of a small quiet town, a few miles from the sea and the beach. The personnel is fantastic and the room was very spatious and quiet. Breakfast is a real treat in this hotel! The hotel facilities are more than adequate though not particularly luxurious. The restaurant is very good though prices are rather high. Overall we had an excellent stay here.
Very friendly service, very clean rooms, great breakfast. Restaurant with an exceptional atmosphere and excellent food. Cosy place you immediately feel at home in. The only thing: hair dryer (at least in the smaller rooms on the second floor) are really no good for styling.
friendly personnel; good breakfast; excellent bed the espresso was poor
Family-run boutique hotel; size of room; very high quality of food and service; feeling like a guest and not a consumer baby cot was not great; we flagged it to the manager who will undoubtedly provide a better one for the next guests
manager very friendly, rooms very nice, wf-fi very good!
the personal and friendly manner the crew did their job
Breakfast was verry good. Everything fresh and home made.
Staff were friendly and attentive
Everything! Nothing
Very nice people, good kitchen, clean and spacius room, comfortable beds. Very good location in the centre of Oostbug. Perfect breakfast. Stairs to the rooms is rather steep. A little noisy (thin walls).
The attentiveness of the staff and the lovely continental breakfasts. Also the night entry arrangements were very good and the location is so peaceful and quiet. Parking was close and easy and the area we found out is virtually crime-free. The curtain rails need lubricating as the warm velvet curtains were not easy to pull back.
The location of the hotel was great, staff was friendly and breakfast was nice. The interior decoration wasn't really cosy and beds were not very good.
Hotel has a new owner and they plan to improve a lot. Nice people with good ideas and very motivated/commited. Previous owner caused a lot of damage mainly by bad service. I very much would like to give the new owners (family) a change to make something out of this place. Need some time but they are on the right way and I wish them all the luck. I will come back for sure to check. Hotel is nicely located at a square and has warm atmosphere. The previous owner was not interested and the hotel was not used for a long time. The rooms and beds need to be refreshed and renewed and some plans to do so are on the way. Cleanliness of the rooms could be a bit better.
Service was good; nice terrasse No soap/shower gel in bathroom; bin not emptied after previous guest
