The Community Reinvestment Act: Extraordinary Leverage for Disenfranchised Communities
Creators: name: Warren, Debbie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1994

description: In America, access to credit is one of the few routes to economic progress for those not born into wealth. For communities in our country, access to credit is critical if homes will be built and maintained; businesses will emerge, survive and grow; family farms will continue; and children will be educated. The existence of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) reflects the recognition that access to credit in the United States is an uneven playing field, with minorities, in particular, handicapped by inadequate net worth, little collateral, bumpy credit histories, high debt burdens and minimal relationships with key decision-makers. Furthermore, recent studies and news stories have documented the evidence of racial bias in lending. The CRA has proved to be a potent tool to help level out this uneven playing field, leading to new flows of credit in inner-city, rural and minority communities. The intent of this article is to: 1) provide background information on the CRA; 2) discuss its use in North Carolina, home of two of the nation's largest banks; 3) foreshadow what the future holds for CRA users; and 4) highlight how planning skills are critical to the advocacy process and how planners in the public and non

description: We present a study of the spatial correlation functions of a one-dimensional reaction-diffusion system in both equilibrium and out of equilibrium. For the numerical simulations we have employed the Gillespie algorithm dividing the system in cells to treat diffusion as a chemical process between adjacent cells. We find that the spatial correlations are spatially short ranged in equilibrium but become long ranged in nonequilibrium. These results are in good agreement with theoretical predictions from fluctuating hydrodynamics for a one-dimensional system and periodic boundary conditions.

description: This paper studies the efficacy of Price Level Targeting (PLT) under the Heuristic Switching Model (HSM). PLT has been considered as an alternative to the traditional inflation targeting in the aftermath of the 2008 Great Recession. However, this policy was not thoroughly tested in real life, whereas the experimental evidence remains contradictory. This study contributes to the discussion by extending the HSM by Hommes and Lustenhouwer (2019) with the PLT Taylor rule. The properties of the PLT rule under the behavioral expectations are mixed. On the one hand, the fundamental steady state becomes the unique fixed point of the system in this setup. However, the stability of this fixed point is highly sensitive to the calibration of the underlying New Keynesian economy, and the exact specification of the HSM. As a result, policy makers can use this policy only if they understand well the way in which the economic agents form their expectations.
Quantum Speedup and Categorical Distributivity

description: This paper studies one of the best known quantum algorithms - Shor's factorisation algorithm - via categorical distributivity. A key aim of the paper is to provide a minimal set of categorical requirements for key parts of the algorithm, in order to establish the most general setting in which the required operations may be performed efficiently. We demonstrate that Laplaza's theory of coherence for distributivity provides a purely categorical proof of the operational equivalence of two quantum circuits, with the notable property that one is exponentially more efficient than the other. This equivalence also exists in a wide range of categories. When applied to the category of finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, we recover the usual efficient implementation of the quantum oracles at the heart of both Shor's algorithm and quantum period-finding generally; however, it is also applicable in a much wider range of settings.

description: Network connectivity is usually addressed for convex domains where a direct line of sight exists between any two transmitting/receiving nodes. Here, we develop a general theory for the network connectivity properties across a small opening, rendering the domain essentially non-convex. Our analytic approach can go only so far as we encounter what is referred to in statistical physics as quenched disorder making the problem non-trivial. We confirm our theory through computer simulations, obtain leading order approximations and discuss possible extensions and applications.

description: We propose a feasible and efficient scheme to generate $N$-atom $W$-class states in spatially separated cavities without using any classical driving pulses. We adopt the model in which the couplings between different atoms are mediated only by virtual excitations of the cavity and fiber fields, so the scheme is insensitive to the cavity decay and fiber photon leakage. We carry out both theoretical investigation in a decoherence-free subspace and numerical calculation accounting for decoherence due to the atomic spontaneous emission as well as the decay of cavity and fiber modes. The theoretical and numerical results agree in the large atom-cavity detuning regime. Our scheme proves to be useful in scalable distributed quantum networks.

description: In this paper we present a simple argument that shows a non-singular bouncing cosmology naturally yields an era of super-inflation which can precede the phase of normal potential driven inflation. One of the consequences of a super-inflation phase is that it might be able to account for suppressing the low multipole in the amplitude of the cosmic microwave background radiation. We are able to constrain the number of e-folds of super-inflation from the current Planck data to be roughly 3 e-folds in a model independent way.

The R/UDAT as Urban Theater: A Planning Alternative for North Philadelphia
Creators: name: Harrison, Sally
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: In October of 1990, a cluster of neighborhoods in the center of North Philadelphia was the subject of an unusual urban design study. A volunteer team of urban experts from around the country gathered there, seeking to forge a vision for revitalizing this deteriorating inner-city community. Neither the community's grim statistical profile, nor its image as portrayed in the press, nor the abundance of its decaying and abandoned structures would suggest that there was much reason to hope for a healthy future. Over the course of a highly charged four-day visit, however, the visiting team was engaged in a process which has helped to alter dramatically some of the entrenched negative perceptions of the community. It has given its disenfranchised residents a voice and has provided the imagery and agenda for positive change. The team is known as a R/UDAT (Regional/Urban Design Assistance Team), and was fielded by the national American Institute of Architects (AIA) and invited by a local coalition of architects, planners and community leaders. The eleven-member R/UDAT team included architects and urban planners, a sociologist, an economist, an assistant chief of police, and specialists in housing, transportation, youth programs, and inner-city neighborhood development. Their visit consisted of a marathon program of on-site research, broad community outreach, brainstorming, debate, and synthesis. At the end of four days, the R/UDAT produced a fifty-page report which documented their findings, offering proposals for the neighborhoods' future development and new insight as to how the community might generate change from within.

Mining Frequent Neighborhood Patterns in Large Labeled Graphs

description: Over the years, frequent subgraphs have been an important sort of targeted patterns in the pattern mining literatures, where most works deal with databases holding a number of graph transactions, e.g., chemical structures of compounds. These methods rely heavily on the downward-closure property (DCP) of the support measure to ensure an efficient pruning of the candidate patterns. When switching to the emerging scenario of single-graph databases such as Google Knowledge Graph and Facebook social graph, the traditional support measure turns out to be trivial (either 0 or 1). However, to the best of our knowledge, all attempts to redefine a single-graph support resulted in measures that either lose DCP, or are no longer semantically intuitive. This paper targets mining patterns in the single-graph setting. We resolve the "DCP-intuitiveness" dilemma by shifting the mining target from frequent subgraphs to frequent neighborhoods. A neighborhood is a specific topological pattern where a vertex is embedded, and the pattern is frequent if it is shared by a large portion (above a given threshold) of vertices. We show that the new patterns not only maintain DCP, but also have equally significant semantics as subgraph patterns. Experiments on real-life datasets display the feasibility of our algorithms on relatively large graphs, as well as the capability of mining interesting knowledge that is not discovered in prior works.

description: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, university students worldwide have experienced drastic changes in their academic and social lives, with the rapid shift to online courses and contact restrictions being reported among the major stressors. In the present study, we aimed at examining students’ perceived stress over the course of the pandemic as well as individual psychological and social coping resources within the theoretical framework of the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping in the specific group of STEM students. In four cross-sectional studies with a total of 496 computer science students in Germany, we found that students reported significantly higher levels of perceived stress at both measurement time points in the second pandemic semester (October/November 2020; January/February 2021) as compared to the beginning of the first (April/May 2020), indicating that students rather became sensitized to the constant pandemic-related stress exposure than habituating to the “new normal”. Regarding students’ coping resources in the higher education context, we found that both high (a) academic self-efficacy and (b) academic online self-efficacy as well as low (c) perceived social and academic exclusion among fellow students significantly predicted lower levels of students’ (d) belonging uncertainty to their study program, which, in turn, predicted lower perceived stress at the beginning of the first pandemic semester. At the beginning of the second pandemic semester, we found that belonging uncertainty still significantly mediated the relationship between students’ academic self-efficacy and perceived stress. Students’ academic online self-efficacy, however, no longer predicted their uncertainty about belonging, but instead had a direct buffering effect on their perceived stress. Students’ perceived social and academic exclusion among fellow students only marginally predicted their belonging uncertainty and no longer predicted their perceived stress 6 months into the pandemic. We discuss the need and importance of assessing and monitoring students’ stress levels as well as faculty interventions to strengthen students’ individual psychological and social coping resources in light of the still ongoing pandemic.

description: The disappearance of prime farmlands, forests, open spaces, and the lack of a cohesive land use policy which protects natural resources is creating a strong grassroots initiative for land conservation: people are organizing to take control of local land. The tool they are using is a local land trust — a nonprofit corporation that enables a group of people to manage land for common uses. Land trusts are a simple, privately organized technique for acquiring and managing land in the public interest.

description: We discuss the interplay between lepton asymmetry L and neutrino oscillations in the early Universe. Neutrino oscillations may suppress or enhance previously existing L. On the other hand L is capable to suppress or enhance neutrino oscillations. The mechanism of L enhancement in MSW resonant neutrino oscillations in the early Universe is numerically analyzed. L cosmological effects through neutrino oscillations are discussed. We discuss how L may change the cosmological BBN constraints on neutrino and show that BBN model with electron-sterile neutrino oscillations is extremely sensitive to L - it allows to obtain the most stringent constraints on L value. We discuss also the cosmological role of active-sterile neutrino mixing and L in connection with the indications about additional relativistic density in the early Universe, pointed out by BBN, CMB and LSS data and the analysis of global neutrino data.

title: Stones for the Roman Empire – on the beginnings of the ancient quarrying and mining district between Eifel area and Rhine
Creators: name: Schaaff, Holger
Publisher: name: University Library Heidelberg
Year: 2016

description: In dem Gebiet zwischen Andernach am Rhein und Mayen am Rand der Eifel bestand in römischer und mittelalterlicher Zeit eines der größten europäischen Abbaureviere für mineralische Rohstoffe. Mühlsteine aus Basaltlava, Bausteine aus Tuff und Gebrauchsgeschirr aus Ton waren jahrhundertelang regelrechte »Exportschlager«, die ihre Abnehmer in der Schweiz ebenso wie in England und Skandinavien fanden.
Auf der Grundlage einer mineralogisch-archäometrischen Herkunftsbestimmung von Mühlsteinen aus den gut datierten Lippelagern Oberaden, Anreppen und Haltern kann der Beginn des für die römische Epoche postulierten immensen Aufschwungs in den Mühlsteinbrüchen bei Mayen chronologisch eng eingegrenzt werden. Darüber hinaus zeigt das Ubiermonument in Köln, dass etwa zur selben Zeit auch die gezielte Ausbeute der Tufflagerstätten in diesem Revier beginnt. Offensichtlich erfolgte die systematische Erschließung beider Lagerstätten im Rahmen staatlich gelenk ter Maßnahmen während oder gar in Vorbereitung der Germanienfeldzüge unter Kaiser Augustus.
description: In the region between Andernach at the Rhine and Mayen at the edge of the Eifel area, one of the largest European mining districts for minerals in Roman and Medieval times was located. Millstones of basalt lava, building material of tuff and pottery coarse ware were exported with great success for centuries with a distribution in Switzerland as well as England and Scandinavia.
The identification of the provenance of the millstones from the well-dated military camps along the Lippe river Oberaden, Anreppen and Haltern with mineralogical archaeological methods leads to a closer date of the enormous boom of the millstone quarries at Mayen which hitherto was postulated for the early Roman period only. Moreover, the monument of the Ubii in Cologne demonstrates that roughly at the same time the deliberate exploitation of the tuff quarries in this district begins. Apparently both quarries were systematically developed in the context of a state programme during or even in preparation of the campaigns against the Germans under Augustus.

Year: 2013

description: The discovery of the spontaneous mode-locking of lasers, i.e., the synchronous oscillation of electromagnetic modes in a cavity, has been a milestone of photonics allowing the realization of oscillators delivering ultra-short pulses. This process is so far known to occur only in standard ordered lasers with meter size length and only in the presence of a specific device (the saturable absorber). Here we demonstrate that mode-locking can spontaneously arise also in random lasers composed by micronsized laser resonances dwelling in intrinsically disordered, self-assembled clusters of nanometer-sized particles. Moreover by engineering a novel mode-selective pumping mechanism we show that it is possible to continuously drive the system from a configuration in which the various excited electromagnetic modes oscillate in the form of several, weakly interacting, resonances to a collective strongly interacting regime. By realizing the smallest mode-locking device ever fabricated, we open the way to novel generation of miniaturized and all-optically controlled light sources.

description: Der Grabfund von Nüssau stellt im nord- und mitteleuropäischen Barbaricum eine seltene Ausnahme dar. Er datiert in die erste Hälfte des 2. Jahrhunderts (Phase B2 spät) und kann mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit als weibliche Bestattung verstanden werden. Mit seinem annähernd identischen Paar von Emailbügelfibeln reiht sich das Grab zwar zwanglos in eine große Anzahl von Komplexen mit einer Dreifibeltracht ein. Römische Fibeln sind jedoch wenn überhaupt vorhanden in diesen Kombinationen fast nur als Einzelstücke vertreten. Als Fibelpaar stellen die beiden Emailbügelfibeln eine funktionale Einheit dar, die in dieser Form sicherlich zahlreich in den römischen Provinzen überwiegend von Frauen getragen wurden. Ob mit den beiden Fibeln auch römische Textilien in den Besitz der in Nüssau beigesetzten Frau kamen, kann aufgrund der Brandbestattung nicht mehr geprüft werden. Es erscheint jedoch nicht ganz unwahrscheinlich.
description: The find of a grave from Nüssau represents a rare exception in the northern und central European barbaricum. It dates to the first half of the 2nd century (phase B2 late) and contained with high probability a female burial. The pair of nearly identical enamel cross-bow brooches easily associates the grave with a great number of assemblages with three brooches. However, Roman brooches exist in these contexts as single pieces at most. In their combination as a pair the enamel cross-bow brooches were a functional entity, found in great numbers in the Roman provinces and worn mainly by women. As the brooches were discovered in a cremation burial it remains unclear whether the buried woman was also accompanied by Roman textiles. It is nevertheless not completely unlikely.

description: Im Juli 2010 entdeckte ein Detektorgänger bei Norderstapel ein aus vier Bronzebecken bestehendes Gefäßdepot. Es handelt sich um vier Kreuzattaschenbecken, die mit der Mündung nach unten in einer etwa 60 cm×50 cm großen Grube deponiert worden waren. Alle Fundstücke sind dem Typ B2a nach G. von Merhart zuzuweisen, die vornehmlich in die Stufe Ha B2/B3 datiert werden (Periode V im Norden). Sie dürften im Karpatenbogen selbst oder in den nördlich vorgelagerten Regionen gefertigt worden und von dort in den Norden gelangt sein. Da für die Perioden IV und V aus Schleswig-Holstein bislang keine Bronzegefäße bekannt waren, schließen die Neufunde eine Fundlücke. Der Auffindungsort liegt auf einem Geestrücken, der von den Flussmarschen der Flüsse Eider, Treene und Sorge umgeben ist. Er dürfte im landgestützten Handel entlang der schleswig-holsteinischen Westküste und für die Verbindung zwischen Dithmarschen und Nordfriesland eine Mittlerstellung eingenommen haben, die sich auch in dem Hortfund widerspiegelt.
description: A deposition comprising four bronze basins was discovered by a detectorist in July 2010 at Norderstapel. They are four basins with cruciform handle attachements which were deposited upside down in a pit measuring 60 cm×50 cm. All of them can be characterised as type B2a after G. von Merhart dating to the period Ha B2/B3 (period V in the North). Most likely, they are produced directly in the Carpathian arc or in the adjacent regions to the North and transported from there to the North. As no bronze vessels of the periods IV and V had hitherto been known in Schleswig-Holstein these new finds close a gap in our knowledge. The site of discovery is situated on a geest ridge surrounded by the rivers Eider, Treene and Sorge. This geographical feature may well have played an intermediary position in the land-based trade along the western coast of Schleswig-Holstein between Ditmarschen and North Frisia and would thus be reflected by the presented hoard.

description: We consider the uncertainty between two pairs of local projective measurements performed on a multipartite system. We show that the optimal bound in any linear uncertainty relation, formulated in terms of the Shannon entropy, is additive. This directly implies, against naive intuition, that the minimal entropic uncertainty can always be realized by fully separable states. Hence, in contradiction to proposals by other authors, no entanglement witness can be constructed solely by comparing the attainable uncertainties of entangled and separable states. However, our result gives rise to a huge simplification for computing global uncertainty bounds as they now can be deduced from local ones. Furthermore, we provide the natural generalization of the Maassen and Uffink inequality for linear uncertainty relations with arbitrary positive coefficients.

description: We formulate a low-energy theory for the magnetic interactions between electrons in the multi-band Hubbard model under non-equilibrium conditions determined by an external time-dependent electric field which simulates laser-induced spin dynamics. We derive expressions for dynamical exchange parameters in terms of non-equilibrium electronic Green functions and self-energies, which can be computed, e.g., with the methods of time-dependent dynamical mean-field theory. Moreover, we find that a correct description of the system requires, in addition to exchange, a new kind of magnetic interaction, that we name "twist exchange", which formally resembles Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya coupling, but is not due to spin-orbit, and is actually due to an effective three-spin interaction. Our theory allows the evaluation of the related time-dependent parameters as well.

description: First floated in 2005, the idea of the “megaregion” is meant to foster collaborative approaches between regional entities and more geographically expansive approaches to long-standing planning problems. Transportation planners at the regional and national level have been particularly receptive to the megaregional approach to planning. This article describes some of the initiatives and conversations that megaregional research spawned in transportation, leading to collaborations within megaregions themselves, as well as partnerships spearheaded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
What Makes for a "Healthy Business Climate?

description: Rapid changes in the world economy have transformed national economies during the last 15 years. The insulation that national borders and federal policies provided have largely dissolved, exposing formerly protected state and regional economies to the challenges of the global economy. Today, a state government must act quickly to meet economic challenges created on the other side of the globe. In meeting these challenges, state leaders and policymakers often assume that the most effective response is to work to improve their state's business climate. The term "business climate" generally refers to the perceived hospitality of a state or locality to the needs and desires of businesses located in, or considering a move to, that jurisdiction. In recent years, though, the term "business climate" has become almost synonymous with the pressure to cut taxes, limit services, and remove impediments, particularly employment and environmental regulations. Understood in this way, attempts to improve a state's business climate can lead to quite contradictory policies that ultimately harm a state's long-term economic health.

description: An aim of SHERPA, in response to the requirement in the call for tenders, was to enable citizens, researchers and policymakers from European regions to engage in dialogue for the formulation of concrete proposals on future rural policies. The SHERPA strategy for engaging with the wider public was one of a twin track of developing complementary activities at local and EU levels, through civil society groups, and by direct engagement. To deliver this strategy, resources were developed centrally and used locally through the project partners or MAPs, and developed locally, cognisant of specific issues and sensitivities. The range of contents and messages cover all four of the pillars of the Rural Action Plan of Stronger, Connected, Resilient and Prosperous, and some items directly relate to some of building blocks of the Rural Action Plan (e.g. peatland restoration and carbon farming).

description: Spin-rotation coupling, which is responsible for angular momentum conversion between the electron spin and rotational deformations of elastic media, is exploited for generating spin current. This method requires neither magnetic moments nor spin-orbit interaction. The spin current generated in nonmagnets is calculated in presence of surface acoustic waves. We solve the spin diffusion equation, extended to include spin-rotation coupling, and find that larger spin currents can be obtained in materials with longer spin lifetimes. Spin accumulation induced on the surface is predicted to be detectable by time-resolved Kerr spectroscopy.

description: Lithium is a fundamental element for studying the mixing mechanisms acting in the stellar interiors, for understanding the chemical evolution of the Galaxy and the Big Bang nucleosynthesis. The study of Li in stars of open clusters (hereafter OC) allows a detailed comparison with stellar evolutionary models and permits us to trace its galactic evolution. The OC NGC 2243 is particularly interesting because of its low metallicity ([Fe/H]=$-0.54 \pm0.10$ dex). We measure the iron and lithium abundance in stars of the metal-poor OC NGC 2243. The first aim is to determine whether the Li dip extends to such low metallicities, the second is to compare the results of our Li analysis in this OC with those present in 47 Tuc, a globular cluster of similar metallicity. We performed a detailed analysis of high-resolution spectra obtained with the multi-object facility FLAMES at the ESO VLT 8.2m telescope. Lithium abundance was derived through line equivalent widths and the OSMARCS atmosphere models. We determine a Li dip center of 1.06 $M_\odot$, which is much smaller than that observed in solar metallicity and metal-rich clusters. This finding confirms and strengthens the conclusion that the mass of the stars in the Li dip strongly depends on stellar metallicity. The mean Li abundance of the cluster is $\log n{\rm (Li)}=2.70$ dex, which is substantially higher than that observed in 47 Tuc. We estimated an iron abundance of [Fe/H]=$-0.54 \pm0.10$ dex for NGC 2243, which is similar (within the errors) to previous findings. The [$ α$/Fe] content ranges from $0.00\pm0.14$ for Ca to $0.20\pm0.22$ for Ti, which is low when compared to thick disk stars and to Pop II stars, but compatible with thin disk objects. We found a mean radial velocity of 61.9 $\pm$ 0.8 \kms for the cluster.

description: In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the State of North Carolina responded to the disaster by deploying the State Medical Assistance Team (SMAT) to Waveland, MS, a Gulf town ravaged by the hurricane. The author of this article, Michele Rudisill, RN, BSN, helped lead the first deployment of the SMAT Field Hospital in Waveland. Her story describes the successful pre-disaster coordination between North Carolina’s various medical response organizations that allowed the team to quickly deploy to the region and almost immediately begin providing critical medical services to the surrounding population. This response was so effective that the SMAT effort is now recognized nationally as a model system for disaster response.

description: The SRO Housing Corporation was formed by the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) of the City of Los Angeles in February 1984. The new non-profit corporation was given a mission of improving the quality of life in the Central City East, or Skid Row, neighborhood of Los Angeles. The main objective was then, and remains today, the acquisition, renovation, management and maintenance of the existing housing stock. In 1984, there were 63 operating SRO hotels with over 6,000 rooms, constituting virtually the entire housing stock of this 55-square block area.
