One of the responsibilities of the professional caseworkers who supervise parolees is to account each month for the status of those under their supervision. Both the law and good parole casework practice require that such an accounting be made. At one time, parolees' names, identification numbers, and other data had to be written by hand by the parole officers in the New York State Division of Parole. Today, the officers have been relieved of this clerical chore; listing and control of cases are now being done efficiently and economically by key-punch and accounting machines. The same key-punched cards used to pre pare the monthly reports are also used to machine-print organ izational reports for administrative and budgetary purposes. The use of machines in parole case control has resulted in accurate and timely reports and has freed the parole officers for their main professional task of assisting in the rehabilitation of parolees.

The Judicial Council and Its Objectives. My assignment is to implement Professor Sunderland's brilliant primer on judicial councils by a more specific presentation utilizing the experiences of the New York State Judicial Council. Of the three elements that enter into a consideration of the judicial branch of government, the first—the substantive law, the law of rights and duties—is not within the province of the judicial council either in New York or elsewhere. The second element—the machinery of justice—is the principal field of the judicial council. If the council does its work well in that field, attention cannot fail to be focused upon the third and most important element—also part of a judicial council's problems—the judicial personnel.

Introduction. Surveillance for laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated deaths in children is used to monitor the severity of influenza at the population level and to inform influenza prevention and control policies. The goal of this study was to better estimate pediatric influenza mortality in New York state (NYS). Methods. Death certificate data were requested for all passively reported deaths and any pneumonia and influenza (P&I) coded pediatric deaths occurring between October 2004 and April 2010, excluding New York City (NYC) residents. A matching algorithm and capture-recapture analysis were used to estimate the total number of influenza-associated deaths among NYS children. Results. Thirty-four laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated pediatric deaths were reported and 67 death certificates had a P&I coded death; 16 deaths matched. No laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated death had a pneumonia code and no pneumonia coded deaths had laboratory evidence of influenza infection in their medical record. The capture-recapture analysis estimated between 38 and 126 influenza-associated pediatric deaths occurred in NYS during the study period. Conclusion. Passive surveillance for influenza-associated deaths continues to be the gold standard methodology for characterizing influenza mortality in children. Review of death certificates can complement but not replace passive reporting, by providing better estimates and detecting any missed laboratory-confirmed deaths.

Hairy galinsoga [Galinsoga ciliata (Raf.) Blake] and smallflower galinsoga [G. parviflora Cav.] are widespread weeds in New York State. Freshly harvested achenes (seed) are not dormant and germinate in the field from early May until frost. Rate of germination but not final total percentage was stimulated by alternating temperature, with the fastest rate being at 30 C day and 20 C night and with a 16-hr photoperiod and 11,000 lux of light. Some seed in each seed-lot required light for germination. Both species were day-neutral with respect to flowering. Smallflower galinsoga produced its first flower after node seven and hairy galinsoga after node six on the main axis 6 to 8 weeks after germination. Decreasing light intensity 83% decreased fresh weight.

ABSTRACT The Administrative Warning is a process utilized extensively in New York State, pursuant to PHL §230, for the resolution of cases where there is substandard medical practice of a minor or technical nature that does not rise to the level of misconduct under the law. These warnings have been effective in alerting and educating practitioners without being public or disciplinary in nature. The New York State Board for Professional Medical Conduct has recognized the value of administrative warnings and increasingly recommends them as a vehicle for informing physicians and physician assistants of practice problems. The recidivism rate appears to be low for those who have been given warnings.
