Sivananda (yoga teacher)

**Sivananda** was a yoga teacher from Bangladesh who claims to be born on 8 August 1896. On March 21 2022, he was awarded the Padma Shri. He died on 3 May 2025 at the claimed age of 128.

## Bio

Sivananda is alleged to have been born on August 8, 1896, although this has not been independently verified. Indian media have taken his claimed date of birth at face value but credible sources supporting/contravening the same are lacking. He was born in Sylhet District of Bengal Presidency of British India (present-day Sylhet Division of Bangladesh).

His parents lived in extreme poverty and even had to beg for their living. His sister, mother, and father all died within a month of each other when he was just six years old. Then he travelled to Kashi from Bengal and began serving there. Swami Sivananda mastered yoga and meditation after receiving his education from Guru Omkarananda.

For over three decades, he taught yoga on the banks of river Ganga in Varanasi.

## Lyrics

The song describes four different "men": Particle Man, who is "not important"; Triangle Man, who fights Particle Man and wins; Universe Man, the size of the universe, and has a watch with hands for different times ("He’s got a watch with a minute hand, a millennium hand, and an eon hand"); and Person Man, who lives in a garbage can, and who is also defeated by Triangle Man.

The song's author, John Linnell, said that there was not a meaning to "Particle Man".

North Manchester General Hospital

**North Manchester General Hospital** (NMGH) is a large NHS hospital in Crumpsall, North Manchester.

The buildings are not in good condition.  There is a plan to rebuild the hospital.  It was one of the 40 new hospitals Boris Johnson promised in the 2019 Conservative election manifesto. In January 2023 the managers complained that building had not started. Delay was putting the cost up.  The cost had gone up  30% to £976 million. The ceiling had fallen down so the operating theatres had to be closed for 6 weeks.

In November 2022  a new garden for patients and staff was opened at the Intensive Care Unit.

## History

Springfield Hospital was a workhouse. It opened in 1853. It was called the Crumpsall Institution. It was for people who were mentally ill.  Later it was called  Park House.

Delaunays Hospital was also  built as a workhouse. It opened in 1869.

Crumpsall Hospital was built for the Manchester Union Workhouse. It opened in 1876. It had 1,440 beds in 1928 with 600 more in the  mental department.

All three were taken over by the National Health Service in 1947.  They were joined together to make  North Manchester General Hospital in 1977.   Since 2020 it is managed by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.

NHS trust

**NHS trusts** were started in 1990 by Margaret Thatcher's government. The idea was to bring a market into the National Health Service in England and Wales.  They took the place of District health authorities which had managed the services before.

Each trust has a board with managers. After 2002 many of them became foundation trusts.  They had more freedom.  The plan was that they would all become foundation trusts, but that hasnt happened.

In 2015 there were 470 trusts.  They have been joined to make bigger organizations. In April 2020 there were 217 trusts, with about 800,000 employees.   There are only 3 trusts in NHS Wales.  In Northern Ireland there are 5 health and social care trusts.

After 2017 there was less talk about markets in the NHS. Integrated care system<nowiki/>s were started.

About 65% of a trust's money goes on paying the workers.

Ransom was born in Pulaski, Tennessee. He graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1909. Then he went to Oxford University. He was teaching at Vanderbilt around 1915 when a group of students began talking about Ameican life and the writing of that time.

In 1937 he started teaching at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. He started a literary magazine, _The Kenyon Review_. In 1941 he published essays about literature in his book _The New Criticism_. Many important poets were printed in _The Kenyon Review_. Some of the first ones were John Berryman, Dylan Thomas, Muriel Rukeyser, and Allen Tate.

Prescription charge

In the English National Health Service people between age 16 and 60 may have to pay a charge for prescribed medicine. The charge is  £9.35 for each one. People can get a certificate which lasts for 3 months for £30.25, or one which lasts a year for £108.10.

In April 2023 a new charge was started for Hormone Replacement Therapy. The new HRT prepayment certificate costs £19.30 a year.

People do not have to pay if they are:

- under 16,
- 16–18 and in full-time education,
- getting some means tested benefits
- over 60,
- women who are expecting or have had a baby in the previous 12 months.  They need a maternity exemption certificate.
- People who have a certificate (HC2) from the NHS Low Income Scheme. An HC3 certificate gives some help but not exemption from charges.

People who do not pay when they should can be punished.  They may have to pay more than £100.

## Medical exemption

People with these conditions are given a medical exemption certificate.  They do not have to pay for any prescriptions,

- epilepsy needing continuous therapy
- a permanent fistula
- diabetes mellitus
- hyperthyroidism (also referred to as Graves' Disease, an autoimmune disorder)
- myxoedema which occurs in hypothyroidism, or hyperthyroidism
- hypoparathyroidism
- diabetes insipidus or hypopituitarism
- Addison's disease and other forms of hypoadrenalism
- myasthenia gravis
- any continuing physical disability which stops them going out alone
- undergoing treatment for cancer, including the effects of cancer, or the effects of current or previous cancer treatment.

In 2008 only 12% of patients in England had to pay.  The Prescription Charges Coalition campaigns for free prescriptions for everyone with a long term condition. The conditions which get free prescriptions had long-term life-saving medicine  in 1968, and it has not been changed since then. The prescription charges rules were called a "dog's dinner" by the Social Market Foundation. The National Pharmacy Association says the charges mean some people do not take their medicine.  They end up in hospital which costs more than the cost of a prescription.   Healthwatch England asked 2000 people about costs in December 2022. 10% said the increased cost of living meant they did not get their prescription.

## History

When the NHS started in 1947 all prescriptions were free. Charges were started in 1952. They stopped in 1965 and were started again in 1968. They were stopped in Wales in 2007, in Northern Ireland in 2010 and in Scotland in 2011.

Krøyer's deep sea angler fish

**Krøyer's deep sea angler fish** (_Ceratias holboelli_) is a species of fish in the family Ceratiidae, the sea devils. This deep-sea anglerfish is found in all oceans, at depths of 0 to 4,400 m (0 to 14,436 ft), but mainly between 400 and 2,000 m (1,300 and 6,600 ft).

Females typically are 77 cm (2.53 ft) long, but can reach 120 cm (3.9 ft). The much smaller males only reach 16 cm (6.3 in) and they are symbiotic, as they attach themselves to a female.

NHS Low Income Scheme

Medical treatment is free in the National Health Service but there are some charges and costs. The Low Income Scheme is to help with these costs.

There are charges for prescriptions, wigs and fabric supports (only in England), dentistry, sight tests, glasses and contact lenses.  It often costs money to  travel to a hospital.

People who get means tested benefits mostly are exempt from these charges. People who have to pay can get a certificate.  An HC2 means they do not have to pay anything. An HC3 means they get some help.

People who have more than £16,000 (£23,250 for people who live in a care home) cannot get a certificate.

People who have a certificate, or are exempt from charges, can claim the cost of their travel to a hospital if they are sent there by a doctor. They normally claim at the hospital. They can get the cost of someone to come with them if they cannot travel alone. They can claim the cost of coming by car or taxi if they need one.

Beaver coins

**Beaver Coins** were gold coins made in Oregon in 1849. They were also known as **Beaver Money**.  Their name comes from the beaver on the front of the coins. The currency contained 8% more gold than other coins from that same period of American history in the United States of America. Today these coins are rare and valuable.

After the creation of the Territory of Oregon, the mint that made the coins became privately owned. It still made coins until Governor Joseph Lane said that this was unconstitutional in September 1849.  (Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution says that the mintage of coins is one of the powers of the Congress.)  The opening of the United States Mint branch in San Francisco, California made many gold and silver U.S. currency available. This helped end the usage of the "Beaver Coins".
General practitioner

A **general practitioner** (GP) (also called a **family doctor** or a **primary care physician**) is a medical doctor who works outside of a hospital.  They deal with all sorts of health problems. They often get to know families over a long time.  This continuity is very important.  In many countries, they send people to see specialists. Away from towns, they may have to deal with emergencies and deliver babies. They spend most of their time looking after illness in young children and old people.

In many countries general practitioners run their own small business.  They are very important in rural medicine.

## United Kingdom

The number of general practitioners increased from 15,000 in 1913 to 19,000 in 1938.  In 1938, 17.6 million people were registered with a GP - about half of the population.

In December 2022, there were 36,622 permanent qualified GPs working in England - full-time equivalent was 27,375.  69% worked between 15 and 37.5 hours a week.  The COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom changed the way they worked.  Telephone and video was used much more.  Some people were very unhappy about this and there were a lot more complaints.  In Northumberland, Gosport, Wolverhampton and West Cheshire some of the GPs now work for the local hospital trust.

Numbers of GPs have been dropping for several years.   Demographic change has led to “demand outstripping supply” with an increasing – and increasingly elderly – population putting immense pressure on GP services which have not expanded in the last ten years.  In 2015, former Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt said he would recruit 5,000 more GPs by 2020. By 2024 number of fully qualified doctors at GP surgeries in England had fallen by 1,877. and  the number of registered patients had increased by 11%.

## Spain

In November 2022 more than 4,000 GPs in Madrid went on an ‘indefinite strike’.  People had to wait a week to see a GP.  They were each seeing ‘more than 50 or 60 patients’ in their working day.

NHS England

**NHS England** manages the National Health Service in England.  It was set up in October 2011. it is part of the Department of Health and Social Care.

Simon Stevens was the Chief Executive from 2014 to 2021. Amanda Pritchard then took over. In October 2022 she told told local NHS leaders that  “the money is a f**king nightmare”.

In 2016 it divided England into 44 areas. They have now become 42 integrated care systems.

It had a budget of £129.9 billion in 2020-21.  Most of the money was given to the local clinical commissioning groups but the 154 most specialized services were managed by them.  The start of integrated care systems  meant that some of this work could be managed in these larger areas.  In 2023 it plans to give the money, £13 billion, for 59 services to 9 committees of integrated care systems. The rest of the  £23 billion for specialised services will still be managed by NHS England.

Shigechiyo Izumi

Shigechiyo Izumi (? - 21 February 1986) was a Japanese Centenarian who was recognised as the oldest living person in the world after the death of Niwa Kawamoto on 16 November 1976. Izumi's claimed birthdate of 29 June 1865 was accepted by Guinness World Records, which recognised him as the oldest verified man ever, but in the 2012 edition of the Guinness World Records book, he was not mentioned and was replaced with Christian Mortensen.

After a brief hospitalization, he died of pneumonia at 9:15PM (Japanese UTC) on 21 February 1986 at the age 120, although some claim his birth certificate belonged to a deceased brother. And his family might have used _Shigechiyo_ as a necronym.

Obituaries were found of a centenarian with the exact same name but born in **1880** instead of 1865.

The oldest undisputed case of male longevity is Jiroemon Kimura, also from Japan, who died on June 12 2013 aged 116 years and 54 days.
