Preventive medical services encompass a wide range of interventions, including vaccinations that prevent diseases from occurring and screening tests designed to detect the presence of a disease before symptoms appear. Delivering preventive medical services results in costs for each person using the service. Vaccinations may cause some of those people to avoid the targeted disease, and screenings may allow some people to receive treatment earlier. Those people generally benefit from preventive medical services, but the net result can be decreases or increases in overall health care spending.
In this presentation, CBO’s Director provides an overview of the agency’s methods for estimating the budgetary effects of proposals to expand the use of preventive medical services.
This presentation highlights laws that have been enacted to address a lapse in appropriations, CBO’s cost estimates for some recently proposed legislation that would provide spending authority during such a lapse, and other proposals introduced in the 116th Congress that would provide spending authority when there is a lapse in appropriations.

The transparency of CBO’s work has always been a priority, and this year the agency has added and shifted resources to redouble its efforts in that area. CBO has three goals in being transparent:
1. CBO aims to enhance the credibility of its work by showing how it relies on data, professional research, and expert feedback.
2. CBO seeks to promote a thorough understanding of its analyses by sharing information in an accessible, clear, and detailed manner.
3. CBO wants to help people gauge how its estimates might change if policies or circumstances were different.
Appropriation acts provide authority for federal programs or agencies to incur obligations and make payments. When appropriations lapse, the result is what is commonly called a government shutdown. This presentation briefly describes various legislative proposals related to a shutdown, such as a recently enacted law that pays furloughed federal workers once a shutdown ends and a proposed bill that would keep funding government operations at their current rate during a shutdown.

The Budget and Economic Outlook is one of the flagship publications of the Congressional Budget Office. The report provides economic and federal budget projections that incorporate the assumption that current laws governing federal spending and revenues generally remain in place. Those baseline projections cover the 10-year period used in the Congressional budget process. The report generally describes the differences between the current projections and previous ones; compares the economic forecast with those of other forecasters; and shows the budgetary impact of some alternative policy assumptions. This presentation describes how the report is produced and how it can be used for economic analysis, providing examples from the April 2018 edition.

Federal debt is already large, and budget deficits over the next decade and beyond are projected to keep pushing it up in relation to the size of the economy. Eventually, debt as a share of economic output would reach its highest level in our nation’s history.
CBO estimates that expected annual economic losses total $54 billion (adjusted to remove the effects of inflation) for most types of damage caused by storm surges, hurricane winds, and heavy precipitation. Expected annual federal spending in response to hurricane winds and storm-related flooding totals $17 billion.

CBO makes baseline economic and budget projections covering the next 10 years and also the next 30 years. The projections incorporate the assumption that current laws generally do not change. To produce the 30-year economic projections, CBO uses its policy growth model, which relies on a standard economic framework that focuses on the inputs that drive growth in the supply side of the economy: the amount of labor, the productive services provided by capital, and total factor productivity.

In this presentation, CBO provides background information on the VA health care system and past spending and describes 10-year projections by CBO on VA health spending under three different scenarios. CBO finds that, under certain assumptions, future spending required to treat veterans may be substantially higher (in inflation-adjusted dollars) than recent appropriations.
States may provide Medicaid benefits either by directly reimbursing providers or by paying private health insurance plans or provider groups (called managed care organizations, or MCOs) to provide services to enrollees. This presentation examines the extent to which Medicaid benefits are delivered through MCOs and the reasons for recent growth in enrollment in and spending for managed care. CBO found that although the overwhelming majority of Medicaid beneficiaries are enrolled in MCOs, payments to MCOs account for less than half of all Medicaid spending. As for the increase in the use of managed care programs to provide Medicaid benefits, the agency found that it is largely attributable to MCOs’ expanding the types of beneficiaries, geographic areas, and range of services that they cover.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

year is bonding bill
67 Senators, 134 Representatives
Higher Education committee members
in House and Senate are the main
focus of our work, Capital Investment
committee is also important,
especially in bonding years
11. What’s next at the Capitol?
Bonding
◦ MnSCU will be asking for:
$130.6 million in HEAPR and demolition
$155.9 million for capital projects and design
The request relies on $58.8 of System financing
and $227.7 million in General Obligation
financing
If fully funded, this request reduces total MnSCU
square footage by 257,360 feet
Bonding bill will likely be between $800 and $900
million if passed
12. What’s next at the Capitol?
The Unsession
◦ Governor Dayton has named the 2014
session as the “Unsession”
◦ The goal is to repeal outdated legislation,
streamline and improve government
16. Federal Budget Challenges
Federal Government Shutdown
◦ Deal to end shutdown funds federal
government until January 15, 2014 and
