BAKER MARYLOU SUDDERS Governor Secretary KARYN E. POLITO MARGRET COOKE Lieutenant Governor Acting Commissioner Tel: 617-624-6000 www.mass.gov/dph UDHËZIM PËR MBULESAT E FYTYRËS DHE MASKAT PREJ PËLHURE Përditësuar më 30 korrik 2021 Ky Udhëzim është përditësuar më 30 korrik 2021. Më 27 korrik 2021, Qendrat Federale për Kontrollin dhe Parandalimin e Sëmundjeve lëshuan një direktivë të përditësuar në lidhje me përdorimin e mbulesave të fytyrës dhe maskat prej pëlhure nga individë plotësisht të vaksinuar kundër COVID-19. Vaksinat kundër COVID-19 janë tejet të efektshme dhe çdo individ që mund t’i bëjë dhe që punon, studion ose banon në Massachusetts këshillohet që t’i bëjë. Direktiva e përditësuar e CDC sërish pohon se individët që janë plotësisht të vaksinuar lejohen, në vija të përgjithshme, të rifillojnë shumë nga aktivitetet që kryenin para pandemisë pa mbajtur maskë ose pa ruajtur distancën prej 1.8 m nga të tjerët, përveçse kur këtë e kërkojnë ligjet, rregullat ose rregulloret federale, shtetërore ose lokale. Megjithatë, në përgjigje të përhapjes tani së fundi të variantit Delta, direktiva e përditësuar e CDC-së rekomandon që edhe personat plotësisht të vaksinuar të mbajnë maska ose mbulesa të fytyrës kur janë në mjedise të brendshme ose në prani të faktorëve të tjerë të rrezikut. Në bazë të informacionit të ofruar nga CDC dhe për të maksimizuar mbrojtjen e individëve më të rrezikuar nga varianti Delta, Departamenti i Shëndetit Publik tani këshillon që një person plotësisht i vaksinuar të mbajë një maskë ose mbulesë për fytyrën kur gjendet në mjedise të brendshme (dhe jo në shtëpinë e vet), në qoftë se ka një sistem imunitar të dobësuar ose në qoftë se ka rrezik të shtuar për t’u sëmurur rëndë për shkak të moshës ose një problemi mjekësor ekzistues ose në qoftë se dikush në familje ka një sistem imunitar të dobësuar, ka rrezik të shtuar për t’u sëmurur rëndë ose është një i rritur i pavaksinuar. Ofruesi juaj i kujdesit parësor mund t’ju tregojë nëse ju keni apo jo rrezik të shtuar. Informacioni nga CDC për rrethanat që mund t’jua shtojnë rrezikun gjenden këtu: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/need-extra-precautions/people-with-medical- conditions.html. Një individ konsiderohet si plotësisht i vaksinuar dy javë pas dozës së dytë në një seri prej dy dozash si vaksinat Pfizer ose Moderna, ose dy javë pas një vaksine me një dozë, të tillë si vaksina Janssen e Johnson & Johnson. Megjithatë, në qoftë se një person plotësisht i vaksinuar fillon të shfaqë simptoma, ai duhet të testohet dhe të mbajë një maskë derisa të marrë rezultatet e testit. Të gjithë personat në Massachusetts (pavarësisht nga statusi i vaksinimit) duhet të vazhdojnë të mbajnë mbulesa të fytyrës në disa vende, përfshi transportin dhe institucionet e kujdesit shëndetësor. Shihni www.mass.gov/maskrules për një listë të plotë të vendeve ku mbetet e detyrueshme mbajtja e maskës ose e një mbulese për fytyrën, që prej datës 29 maj 2021. Individët që nuk janë plotësisht të vaksinuar duhet të vazhdojnë të mbajnë një mbulesë për fytyrën ose maskë, që të mos rrezikojnë t’ua ngjitin COVID-19 të tjerëve. Edhe ata që nuk shfaqin simptoma të sëmundjes mund ta përhapin COVID-19. Për individët që nuk janë vaksinuar plotësisht, CDC këshillon sa më poshtë: • Mbani një mbulesë për fytyrën ose maskë që ju mbulon hundën dhe gojën. • Ruani një distancë prej 1.8 m nga të tjerët që nuk jetojnë me ju. • Shmangni grumbullimet e njerëzve dhe hapësirat e brendshme të pa-ajruara mirë. • Lani duart shpesh me ujë dhe sapun. Përdorni dezinfektues për duart, në qoftë se nuk ka në dispozicion ujë dhe sapun. • Testohuni po të jeni ekspozuar ose po të keni simptoma që duken si ato të COVID-19. Kur mbani një mbulesë për fytyrën ose maskë, kjo duhet: • Të zërë vend mirë por pa ju bezdisur, ngjitur me fytyrën, • Të jetë e siguruar me rripa ose lidhëse për veshët, • Të ketë disa shtresa pëlhure ose materiali, • Të lejojë frymëmarrjen pa pengim dhe • Të mund të lahet dhe të thahet me makinë pa u dëmtuar dhe pa ndryshuar formën. Për më shumë informacion, referojuni CDC te: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019- ncov/vaccines/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html Ky udhëzim mund të ndryshojë në bazë të së dhënave të shëndetit publik dhe direktivave të reja nga CDC. .

  • Old Cyrillic in Unicode*
    Old Cyrillic in Unicode* Ivan A Derzhanski Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences [email protected] The current version of the Unicode Standard acknowledges the existence of a pre- modern version of the Cyrillic script, but its support thereof is limited to assigning code points to several obsolete letters. Meanwhile mediæval Cyrillic manuscripts and some early printed books feature a plethora of letter shapes, ligatures, diacritic and punctuation marks that want proper representation. (In addition, contemporary editions of mediæval texts employ a variety of annotation signs.) As generally with scripts that predate printing, an obvious problem is the abundance of functional, chronological, regional and decorative variant shapes, the precise details of whose distribution are often unknown. The present contents of the block will need to be interpreted with Old Cyrillic in mind, and decisions to be made as to which remaining characters should be implemented via Unicode’s mechanism of variation selection, as ligatures in the typeface, or as code points in the Private space or the standard Cyrillic block. I discuss the initial stage of this work. The Unicode Standard (Unicode 4.0.1) makes a controversial statement: The historical form of the Cyrillic alphabet is treated as a font style variation of modern Cyrillic because the historical forms are relatively close to the modern appearance, and because some of them are still in modern use in languages other than Russian (for example, U+0406 “I” CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER I is used in modern Ukrainian and Byelorussian). Some of the letters in this range were used in modern typefaces in Russian and Bulgarian.

  • Aviso De Conciliación De Demanda Colectiva Sobre Los Derechos De Los Jóvenes Involucrados En El Programa Youth Accountability Team (“Yat”) Del Condado De Riverside
    AVISO DE CONCILIACIÓN DE DEMANDA COLECTIVA SOBRE LOS DERECHOS DE LOS JÓVENES INVOLUCRADOS EN EL PROGRAMA YOUTH ACCOUNTABILITY TEAM (“YAT”) DEL CONDADO DE RIVERSIDE Este aviso es sobre una conciliación de una demanda colectiva contra el condado de Riverside, la cual involucra supuestas violaciones de los derechos de los jóvenes que han participado en el programa Youth Accountability Team (“YAT”) dirigido por la Oficina de Libertad condicional del Condado de Riverside. Si alguna vez se lo derivó al programa YAT, esta conciliación podría afectar sus derechos. SOBRE LA DEMANDA El 1 de julio de 2018, tres jóvenes del condado de Riverside y una organización de tutelaje de jóvenes presentaron esta demanda colectiva, de nombre Sigma Beta Xi, Inc. v. County of Riverside. La demanda cuestiona la constitucionalidad del programa Youth Accountability Team (“YAT”), un programa de recuperación juvenil dirigido por el condado de Riverside (el “Condado”). La demanda levantó una gran cantidad de dudas sobre las duras sanciones impuestas sobre los menores acusados solo de mala conducta escolar menor. La demanda alegaba que el programa YAT había puesto a miles de menores en contratos onerosos de libertad condicional YAT en base al comportamiento común de los adolescentes, incluida la “persistente o habitual negación a obedecer las órdenes o las instrucciones razonables de las autoridades escolares” en virtud de la sección 601(b) del Código de Bienestar e Instituciones de California (California Welfare & Institutions Code). La demanda además alegaba que el programa YAT violaba los derechos al debido proceso de los menores al no notificarles de forma adecuada sobre sus derechos y al no proporcionarles orientación.

  • Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian As Spoken in MONGOLIA
    Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian as Spoken in MONGOLIA Halh Mongolian, also known as Khalkha (or Xalxa) Mongolian, is a Mongolic language spoken in Mongolia. It has approximately 3 million speakers. 1. Special handling of dialects There are several Mongolic languages or dialects which are mutually intelligible. These include Chakhar and Ordos Mongol, both spoken in the Inner Mongolia region of China. Their status as separate languages is a matter of dispute (Rybatzki 2003). Halh Mongolian is the only Mongolian dialect spoken by the ethnic Mongolian majority in Mongolia. Mongolian speakers from outside Mongolia were not included in this data collection; only Halh Mongolian was collected. 2. Deviation from native-speaker principle No deviation, only native speakers of Halh Mongolian in Mongolia were collected. 3. Special handling of spelling None. 4. Description of character set used for orthographic transcription Mongolian has historically been written in a large variety of scripts. A Latin alphabet was introduced in 1941, but is no longer current (Grenoble, 2003). Today, the classic Mongolian script is still used in Inner Mongolia, but the official standard spelling of Halh Mongolian uses Mongolian Cyrillic. This is also the script used for all educational purposes in Mongolia, and therefore the script which was used for this project. It consists of the standard Cyrillic range (Ux0410-Ux044F, Ux0401, and Ux0451) plus two extra characters, Ux04E8/Ux04E9 and Ux04AE/Ux04AF (see also the table in Section 5.1). 5. Description of Romanization scheme The table in Section 5.1 shows Appen's Mongolian Romanization scheme, which is fully reversible.

  • RUSSIAN CYRILLIC ALPHABET Sunday, 08 April 2012 20:15
    RUSSIAN CYRILLIC ALPHABET Sunday, 08 April 2012 20:15 {joomplu:1215 left} The CYRILLIC ALPHABET is the official alphabet of the Russian Federation. When coming to Russia, one might be very intimidated by the strange letters and words that are written everywhere. There is no need to worry anymore. We would like to educate everyone on the Cyrillic alphabet, and how to read it, understand it, and love it. So that by the end of this article you will be able to read and understand the tricky Russian alphabet hands down. =) The Cyrillic alphabet was first developed in the 10th century AD in the area known as Bulgaria today. The alphabet has gone through a lot of changes over its history, and looks somewhat similar in some aspects today, as it did so many years ago. Cyrillic is the official alphabet of several Slavic countries such as: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Serbia. But it is also used in several other post-Soviet countries. The alphabet is derived from the ancient Greek script. The usage of Cyrillic nowadays is that it serves as one of the three official alphabets in the European Union. In the Russian alphabet, there are 33 letters and 43 sounds (6 vowels and 37 consonants) as opposed to the 26 letters of the English alphabet (Latin alphabet) with the total of 52 sounds. Both alphabets contain similar letters such as A, E, K, M, O, and T, which are pronounced not exactly the same but quite similarly: The Russian T, K, and M are the equivalents of the respective sounds in English.

    SHTËPIA E BARDHË Zyra e Sekretarit të Shtypit ______________________________________________________________________________ PËR NJOFTIM TË MENJËHERSHËM 1 dhjetor 2009 FLETË FAKTIKE: RRUGA QË DO TË NDJEKIM NË AFGANISTAN DHE PAKISTAN MISIONI YNË: Fjalimi i Presidentit riafirmon qëllimin themelor të formuluar në mars 2009: të pengohet, çrrënjoset dhe të mundet përfundimisht Al-Kaeda dhe të mos lejohet kthimi i tyre në Afganistan ose Pakistan. Për t'ia arritur këtij qëllimi, ne dhe aleatët tanë do të rrisim numrin e forcave tona, do të vëmë në shënjestër elementët rebelë dhe do të sigurojmë qendrat kryesore të popullatës, do të stërvisim forcat afgane, do t'ia kalojmë përgjegjësinë një partneri të aftë afgan dhe do të rrisim partneritetin me pakistanezët të cilët po përballen me të njëjtat kërcënime. Ky rajon është zemra e ekstremizmit të dhunshëm global të ndjekur nga Al-Kaeda si dhe rajoni nga i cili ne u sulmuam më 11 shtator. Sulme të reja po planifikohen atje tani, një fakt i vënë në pah nga një komplot i kohëve të fundit, që është zbuluar dhe shkatërruar nga autoritetet amerikane. Ne nuk do ta lejojmë Talibanin të kthejë përsëri Afganistanin në një zonë strehimi nga ku terroristët ndërkombëtarë mund të na godasin ne ose aleatët tanë. Kjo do të përbënte një kërcënim të drejtpërdrejtë kundër atdheut amerikan, dhe ky është një kërcënim që ne nuk mund ta tolerojmë. Al-Kaeda mbetet në Pakistan ku vazhdon të komplotojë sulme kundër nesh dhe ku si ajo ashtu dhe aleatët e saj ekstremistë përbëjnë një kërcënim për shtetin pakistanez. Synimi ynë në Pakistan është të sigurohet disfata e Al-Kaedës dhe të ruhet stabiliteti i Pakistanit.

  • Reading Russian Documents: the Alphabet
    Reading Russian Documents: The Alphabet Russian “How to” Guide, Beginner Level: Instruction October 2019 GOAL This guide will help you to: • understand a basic history of the Cyrillic alphabet. • recognize and identify Russian letters – both typed and handwritten. • learn the English transcription and pronunciation for letters of the Cyrillic alphabet. INTRODUCTION The Russian language uses the Cyrillic alphabet which has roots in the mid-ninth century. At this time, a new Slavic Empire known as Moravia was forming in the east. In 862, Prince Rastislav of Moravia requested that missionaries from the Byzantine Empire be sent to teach his people. Shortly thereafter, two brothers, known as Constantine and Methodius, arrived from what is now modern-day Macedonia. Realizing that a written alphabet could aid in spreading the gospel message, Constantine created a written alphabet to translate the Gospels and other religious texts. As a result of his work, the Orthodox Church later canonized Constantine as St. Cyril, Apostle to the Slavs. The Russian Empire adopted St. Cyril’s alphabet in 988 and used it for centuries until some changes were made in the seventeenth century. In 1672, Tsar Peter the Great came into power and immediately began carrying out several reforms, including an alphabet reform. Peter wanted the Cyrillic characters to appear less Greek and more westernized. As a result, several Greek letters were eliminated and other letters that looked “too” Greek were replaced with Latin visual equivalents. Additionally, Peter the Great replaced the Cyrillic numbering system for the usage of Arabic numerals. The next major change to the alphabet came in 1918, following the Russian Revolution.
