description: This study uses logit analysis to examine the influence of the perception of local economic opportunities and the willingness to move on the educational aspirations of rural high-school-aged youths. Those youths who are more willing to move have a greater career opportunity set and a string incentive to achieve in school, since education allows them to compete for jobs elsewhere. A low willingness to move, coupled with a low perception of local job opportunities, translates into a low expected return to education, which reduces the incentive to achieve in school.

subject: Trade

description: NAFTA and GATT will dramatically alter regulations protecting U.S. peanut markets and will allow foreign producers considerable access to domestic market. Traditionally, the political economy surrounding peanut policy has been favorable to domestic producers. Rising peanut butter imports, decreasing domestic demand, and possibly the inadvertent effects of domestic policy, ironically implemented to protect domestic producers, have contributed to significant increases in Treasury costs. These increased Treasury costs have dramatically changed the political climate surrounding the peanut program. In this light, the effects of GATT appear manageable; NAFTA may ultimately require major policy reform. Possible alternatives are presented.
Disciplinary Power and Contemporary Photography

description: Julia Rogers Research Prize: Margaret Guccione Prize Winner, 2013
description: I began this essay with a preliminary research consultation to help commence
investigating photographic art, philosophy of surveillance, and visual imaging – all
outside of my major discipline. A few minutes after searching key word terms within
these topics and cross-referencing them with WorldCat and the Goucher College Library
Catalogue, I discovered two bookshelves devoted to sculpture and photography with
themes of surveillance. The titles that emerged from the computer search then revealed a
larger extent of sources sitting on adjacent shelves. This experience reinforced for me the
value of not just computer searches, but also having a wandering eye in the library
shelves.
I then turned to Lexis-Nexis for newspaper accounts of art exhibitions to provide
a perspective of the work inside the art gallery or internet – one more intimate to the
work than a time-removed anthology of artistic works. I also employed Academic Search
Premier to conduct more rapid searches for academic articles. The ability to insert key
terms and phrases in various combinations, paired with the library’s Internet connection
(itself a valuable and taken-for-granted tool), allowed me to quickly peruse dozens of
article titles and abstracts. Using Academic Search Premier revealed the research process
as funnel-like: the more one researches, the more one refines the search terms and
extracts the most precise resources from the search engine.
The Research Librarians aided me in replacing abstract philosophical terms with
more common synonyms, in addition to answering my questions about proper citation (as
this essay represented my first foray into artistic analysis). The acquisition of much of the
research depended on a strong network of databases and people within the library,
including the research librarians, CTLT, and the front desk student workers. Together, the
online and human resources made me feel very comfortable successfully conducting
research outside my major discipline.

Constructing learning communities in Yukon schools : a pedagogical approach for technology integration
Creators: name: Davidson, Jo Ann Christine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The importance of integrating technology across the curriculum has been prominent in educational literature for the past decade. Numerous obstacles have been identified and documented surrounding the successful integration of technology in public schools. Access to hardware, appropriate software, professional training for educators, technical and financial support to sustain meaningful uses of technology in schools are the primary areas to be addressed when designing a comprehensive information technology implementation strategy for educational environments. The obstacles are clear, but many educational leaders have failed to develop a model which successfully addresses the challenge of integrating the use of technology as a tool for teaching and learning and as a means of constructing new knowledge for and by students. This paper will explore how technology facilitates learning through inquiry and how inquiry supports a constructivist/constructionist approach to teaching and learning for students and professional staff. This will lead to an examination of how inquiry and constructivism advance the integration of technology in education and how it provides a venue for developing communities of inquiry in schools. A framework for two initiatives developed for Yukon schools will be presented which address many of the challenges common to the successful integration of technology in public schools today. Both initiatives, the Computer Resource Teacher Model (CRTM) and Technology Learning Communities (TLC), promote integrative and constructive uses of technology through an inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning with computers.
New observations regarding deterministic, time reversible thermostats and Gauss's principle of least constraint

description: Deterministic thermostats are frequently employed in non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in order to remove the heat produced irreversibly over the course of such simulations. The simplest thermostat is the Gaussian thermostat, which satisfies Gauss's principle of least constraint and fixes the peculiar kinetic energy. There are of course infinitely many ways to thermostat systems, e.g. by fixing $\sum\limits_i{|{p_i}|^{μ+ 1}}$. In the present paper we provide, for the first time, convincing arguments as to why the conventional Gaussian isokinetic thermostat ($μ=1$) is unique in this class. We show that this thermostat minimizes the phase space compression and is the only thermostat for which the conjugate pairing rule (CPR) holds. Moreover it is shown that for finite sized systems in the absence of an applied dissipative field, all other thermostats ($μ=1$) perform work on the system in the same manner as a dissipative field while simultaneously removing the dissipative heat so generated. All other thermostats ($μ=1$) are thus auto-dissipative. Among all $μ$-thermostats, only the $μ=1$ Gaussian thermostat permits an equilibrium state.

description: We present a survey of bright optical dropout sources in two deep, multiwavelength surveys comprising eleven widely-separated fields, aimed at constraining the galaxy luminosity function at z~7 for sources at 5-10L*(z=6). Our combined survey area is 225 arcmin^2 to a depth of J=24.2 (AB, 3 sigma) and 135 arcmin^2 to J=25.3 (AB, 4 sigma). We find that infrared data longwards of 2 microns is essential for classifying optical dropout sources, and in particular for identifying cool Galactic star contaminants. Our limits on the number density of high redshift sources are consistent with current estimates of the Lyman break galaxy luminosity function at z=6.

description: We study the non-perturbative corrections generated by exotic instantons in U(N) gauge theories in eight and four dimensions. As it was shown previously, the eight-dimensional prepotential can be resummed using a plethystic formula showing only a dependence from the center of mass and from a U(1) gauge factor. On the contrary, chiral correlators in eight and four dimensions display a non-trivial dependence from the full gauge group. Furthermore the resolvent, the generating function for the eight and four dimensional correlators, can be written in a compact form both in the eight and four dimensional cases.

description: Under a market setting, we analyse the impact of legal liability on prevention, taking into account the possible limited wealth of firms. We show that under strict liability, firms my choose ex ante not to be able to fully indemnify victims ex post: whatever the market structure, they may use limited liability strategically by investing in prevention in excess of what is socially optimal. The negligence rule prevents firms from over-investment. For high levels of damages, under both liability rules, firms exert an insufficient effort of prevention. A welfare analysis established that when the judgment proof problem is acute, the optimal public intervention ranges from banning the production to imposing the negligence rule.

Astrometric Effects of Secular Aberration

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: One of the main endeavors of fundamental astrometry is to establish a practical realization of an inertial reference frame anchored to celestial objects whose positions are defined in the barycentric coordinates of the solar system. The development of astrometric facilities operating from space at a microarcsecond level of precision makes the non-uniformity of the galactic motion of the barycenter an observable effect that violates the inertiality of the barycentric frame. Most of the observable effect is caused by secular acceleration of the barycenter with respect to the center of the Galaxy. The acceleration results in a pattern of secular aberration which is observable astrometrically as a systematic vector field of the proper motions of distant quasars. We employ the vector spherical harmonics to describe the predicted field of the proper motions and evaluate its amplitude at each point on the celestial sphere. It is shown that the pattern of secular aberration is fully represented by three low-order electric-type vector harmonics, and hence, it is easily distinguishable from the residual rotations of the reference frame and other possible effects, such as the hypothetical long-period gravitational waves. Comprehensive numerical simulations of the grid astrometry with SIM PlanetQuest are conducted. The full covariance matrix of the simulated grid solution is used to evaluate the covariances of the three electric harmonic coefficients, representing the secular aberration pattern of proper motions. We conclude that the grid astrometry with SIM PlanetQuest will be sensitive to the main galactocentric component of secular acceleration, while the peculiar acceleration of the Sun with respect to LSR is expected to be too small to be detected with this astrometric space interferometer.

description: This paper aims to provide an introductory overview over the socio-cultural context of Northern Vietnam to agricultural researchers. The paper focuses on the interplay between Vietnam's lowlands and the uplands to specify what makes the Northern uplands a distinct region; as an object of empirical agricultural research and as a context of application of research results. The paper reviews the developments of selected social institutions from pre-colonial times to the current era of "renovation". First, developments in Vietnam's legal and administrative structures are outlined. Second, education and higher education, particularly the agricultural sciences, are discussed. The third and main part elaborates on social, political, and economic specifics of the Northern Uplands. It is suggested that the relationship between formal and informal institutions is crucial for understanding the dynamics of contemporary uplands Vietnam, particularly in the given multi-cultural situation.

description: Micronutrient malnutrition is a public health problem in many regions of the developing world. Severe vitamin A and iron deficiencies are of particular concern due to their high prevalence and their serious, multiple health effects on humans. This paper examines dietary patterns and nutrient intakes, as well as their socioeconomic determinants among households in the Philippines. Since promotion of indigenous vegetables is often considered as an avenue to reduce micronutrient malnutrition, special emphasis is placed on analyzing the contribution of this particular food group to household vitamin A and iron intakes. We use a sample consisting of 172 resource-poor households located in peri-urban areas of Laguna Province. A 24-hour food consumption recall allows for detailed, meal-specific examination of diets. Results of the dietary analysis suggest that fish is of major importance for vitamin A and iron intakes. But also vegetables, and especially indigenous vegetables, play an essential role for balanced household diets. In order to determine socioeconomic factors influencing vitamin A and iron intakes, we employ an econometric model, which shows that deficiencies are strongly associated with low household incomes and poverty. Thus, poverty alleviation will help reduce the problem of micronutrient malnutrition in the medium and long run. However, in the interim, more targeted interventions will be needed. Our results suggest that promotion of indigenous vegetables can play a role in this respect, especially among the poor, who can often not afford sufficient amounts of animal products.

description: Genetic engineering (GE) in agriculture is a controversial topic in science and society at large. While some oppose genetically modified crops as proxy of an agricultural system they consider unsustainable and inequitable, the question remains whether GE can benefit the poor within the existing system and what needs to be done to deliver these benefits? Golden Rice has been genetically engineered to produce provitamin A. The technology is still in the testing phase, but, once released, it is expected to address one consequence of poverty " vitamin A deficiency (VAD) " and its health implications. Current interventions to combat VAD rely mainly on pharmaceutical supplementation, which is costly in the long run and only partially successful. We develop a methodology for ex-ante evaluation, taking into account the whole sequence of effects between the cultivation of the crop and its ultimate health impacts. In doing so we build on a comprehensive, nationally representative data set of household food consumption in India. Using a refined disability-adjusted life year (DALY) framework and detailed health data, this study shows for India that under optimistic assumptions this country's annual burden of VAD of 2.3 million DALYs lost can be reduced by 59.4% hence 1.4 million healthy life years could be saved each year if Golden Rice would be consumed widely. In a low impact scenario, where Golden Rice is consumed less frequently and produces less provitamin A, the burden of VAD could be reduced by 8.8%. However, in both scenarios the cost per DALY saved through Golden Rice (US$3.06-19.40) is lower than the cost of current supplementation efforts, and it outperforms international cost-effectiveness thresholds. Golden Rice should therefore be considered seriously as a complementary intervention to fight VAD in rice-eating populations in the medium term.

description: Gamma ray bursts are excellent candidates to constrain physical models which break Lorentz symmetry. We consider deformed dispersion relations which break the boost invariance and lead to an energy-dependent speed of light. In these models, simultaneously emitted photons from cosmological sources reach Earth with a spectral time delay that depends on the symmetry breaking scale. We estimate the possible bounds which can be obtained by comparing the spectral time delays with the time resolution of available telescopes. We discuss the best strategy to reach the strongest bounds. We compute the probability of detecting bursts that improve the current bounds. The results are encouraging. Depending on the model, it is possible to build a detector that within several years will improve the present limits of 0.015 m_pl.

Outreach of credit institutes and households' access constraints to formal credit in Northern Vietnam

description: Most policy and research interest regarding rural credit markets revolves around the perception that poor households in developing countries lack access to credit, which is believed to have negative consequences for household welfare. An important feature of the rural credit market is that access to credit is easier for some groups than for others. The Vietnamese government supplied credit on preferential terms, particularly to rural households, through state-owned financial intermediaries. The share of the informal sector was thus considerably reduced from 78% (1992/93) of all outstanding loans to 54% (1997/98) in favor of the formal sector. However, there is evidence from other developing countries that credit constraints persist despite the expansion of rural finance. Hulme and Mosley (1996) state that there is increasing evidence that the poorest 20% of the population are excluded from rural credit programs. Thus, even in Vietnam the question remains: did the Vietnamese government succeed in reaching the poor, or do groups of people exist who are still access-constrained? Quantitative (N=260) and qualitative data collection took place between March 2000 and 2001. The quantitative data comprise cross-sectional household-level data from two different districts in Northern Vietnam. The poverty outreach of formal rural lenders was analyzed using Principal Component Analysis, while access to formal credit was investigated using a binary logit analysis. The poverty outreach of the formal lenders is quite satisfactory since about 50% of all predominantly poor rural households have access to formal credit. However, the poorest households are seldom clients of formal lenders. Yet, it is not their extreme general poverty that determines their access to formal credit. The results indicate that only certain aspects of poverty, e.g. low quality of housing, have an important influence on access to formal credit in Vietnam. The poorest households simply have much less demand for formal credit. Offering new credit products would only slightly improve the credit coverage of poorer households. More promising would be a specialized pro-poor extension service to widen the scope of their investment ideas and possibilities, combined with general improvement of the infrastructure. All in all, the most appropriate tool to incorporate poorer households into the formal financial system would be mobilization of savings. Nevertheless, the number of access-constrained households is surprisingly low. One reason for the low number is the weakening or eradication of former access constraints. Some access barriers do still exist, e.g. towards ethnic minorities or female-led households. To reduce these access barriers, the actions to be taken should be catering to the specific needs and the circumstances of those households that lack access.

description: Iron deficiency is a widespread nutritional problem in developing countries, causing impaired physical activity and cognitive development, as well as maternal mortality. Although food fortification and supplementation programmes have been effective in some countries, their overall success remains limited. Biofortification, that is, breeding crops for higher micronutrient content, is a relatively new approach. We propose a methodology for ex-ante impact assessment of iron biofortification, which builds on disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and a large household data set. Our analysis of iron-rich rice and wheat in India indicates sizeable potential health benefits. The cost-effectiveness of iron biofortification compares favourably with other interventions.

description: We study the formation of a large-scale coherent structure (a condensate) in classical wave equations by considering the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation as a representative model. We formulate a thermodynamic description of the condensation process by using a wave turbulence theory with ultraviolet cut-off. In 3 dimensions the equilibrium state undergoes a phase transition for sufficiently low energy density, while no transition occurs in 2 dimensions, in analogy with standard Bose-Einstein condensation in quantum systems. Numerical simulations show that the thermodynamic limit is reached for systems with $16^3$ computational modes and greater. On the basis of a modified wave turbulence theory, we show that the nonlinear interaction makes the transition to condensation subcritical. The theory is in quantitative agreement with the simulations.

Anacroneuria marshalli

description: Anacroneuria marshalli sp. nov. (Figs. 1-5) Material examined. Holotype ♂ from Argentina, Salta, 15 km W Chicoana, Canyado Gotera, February 1992, S.A. Marshall (UGIC). Adult habitus. General color brown patterned with yellow. Head and pronotum damaged, partially obscuring pattern; head with dark quadrangular area over ocelli extending forward to M-line; M-line represented by pale oval area; pale brown pigment extends forward of M-line and darker pigment occurs on lappets (Fig. 1). Pronotum apparently almost uniformly brown. Wing membrane pale brown, veins amber except R-vein dark brown. Legs brown with narrow, black, apical femoral band. Male. Forewing length 8 mm. Hammer a short, wide thimble shaped structure with basal diameter greater than height (Fig. 2). Aedeagal apex a simple scoopshaped structure with truncate tip and low V-shaped dorsal keel (Figs. 3-5). Hooks chelate, ventral membranous lobes well developed. Female. Unknown. Larva. Unknown. Etymology. The patronym honors Stephen Marshall, collector of the holotype. Diagnosis. Anacroneuria marshalli appears to be part of a complex of Andean species including A. montera Stark & Sivec, A. canchi Stark & Sivec, and A. pastaza Stark (Stark & Sivec 1998; Stark 2001). The former species has a distinctive large dark area covering the posterior half of the head, and the aedeagal apex is turned sharply ventrad beyond the hooks, whereas the latter species is generally similar to A. marshalli in pigment pattern but lacks chelate hooks, has a broader aedeagal apex and the hammer is much “taller” than in the new species. Although A. canchi has chelate hooks, it also has a much shorter aedeagal tip which barely projects beyond the hooks, and the apex is also angled sharply ventrad. This species also has a narrow, inclined plane type of hammer rather than the short thimble shape found in A. marshalli.

Type species
Paraostenia voultensis Secrétan, 1985 by monotypy.
Original diagnosis (Secrétan 1985)
The voluminous and rounded eyes, the gills and the anterior and posterior appendages are as in Dollocaris. The form of the carapace is nearly identical to that of Ostenia (Arduini et al. 1980 amend Arduini & Brasca 1984) differing in form from Dollocaris in the outline which is proportionally higher and shorter and devoid of suborbital spine below the orbital opening which is less deep and more gaping.
Emended diagnosis
Thylacocephala with a symmetric optic notch, a sharp antero-dorsal corner, a dorsal carina, a concave posterior margin, rounded postero-dorsal and postero-ventral corners, long and gracile appendages.
Other included species
Paraostenia ambatolokobensis (Arduini, 1990), Dienerian/Smithian, Early Triassic, Madagascar. Paraostenia sp. Ehiro & Kato in Ehiro et al., 2015, Spathian, Early Triassic, Japan.

description: Despite the increasing global commitment to address undernutrition, it remains a persistent problem affecting millions of people worldwide. This paper examined farmers’ propensity to adopt new nutrient-dense food products in Kenya. This research aims to bridge the gap in understanding the factors influencing farmers' choices in adopting nutrient-dense crops to enhance decrease in micro-nutrient deficiency. Consumer Decision Model theoretical framework, which considered various behavioral, economic, personal, and physical factors involved in the adoption decision-making process was utilized. A 4-point Likert scale was used to examine farmers' willingness to adopt nutrient dense crops using a structured questionnaire. The study was conducted in two counties in Kenya, Mukurweini and Kitui. Factors influencing farmers' willingness to adopt nutrents dense crops were analyzed using a generalized ordered logit regression model to examine the relationship between farmers' propensity to adopt nutrient-dense products and socioeconomic variables. The findings from this study contribute to and   influence policies promoting resilient and nutrition-sensitive food systems. Results from the generalized logit analysis revealed several key factors that influence farmers' interest in newer crops with higher nutritional content. The findings indicate that socioeconomic factors investigated have varying effects on different categories of interest in different regions. Factors such as having primary education, using hired labour, being a group member, having a larger household size, possessing a larger land size, and not irrigating crops were found to have significant associations with farmers' interest to adopt Nutrient Dense Crops. These results emphasize the importance of considering local contexts and implementing targeted strategies to promote the adoption of newer crops among farmers. The study recommends gender-egalitarian policy shift on the uptake of improved agricultural technologies transforming food systems to safeguard local nutrition and health that will require a shift towards sufficient production of nutrient dense crops and other agricultural products.
Are the black hole masses in Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies actually small?

description: Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) are generally considered peculiar objects among the broad class of Type 1 active galactic nuclei, due to the relatively small width of the broad lines, strong X-ray variability, soft X-ray continua, weak [OIII], and strong FeII line intensities. The mass M_BH of the central massive black hole (MBH) is claimed to be lighter than expected from known MBH-host galaxy scaling relations, while the accretion rate onto the MBH larger than the average value appropriate to Seyfert 1 galaxies. In this Letter, we show that NLS1 peculiar M_BH and L/L_Edd turn out to be fairly standard, provided that the broad line region is allowed to have a disc-like, rather than isotropic, geometry. Assuming that NLS1s are rather ``normal'' Seyfert 1 objects seen along the disc axis, we could estimate the typical inclination angles from the fraction of Seyfert 1 classified as NLS1s, and compute the geometrical factor relating the observed FWHM of broad lines to the virial mass of the MBH. We show that the geometrical factor can fully account for the "black hole mass deficit" observed in NLS1s, and that L/L_Edd is (on average) comparable to the value of the more common broad line Seyfert 1 galaxies.
