description: This thesis argues how the video essay’s analytical properties prompt alternative ways for fans to engage with participatory practices. To support this argument my work provides a historical overview of the video essay’s generic evolution and how the utilization of participatory practices, as seen through transformational works, are exhibited in the video essay. This is supported through two case studies of fan-made video essays which exemplify both the traditional scholarly aspects and the transformational aspects of the genre respectively. This is followed by a qualitative analysis of two in-depth interviews with YouTubers whose works exemplify how video essays are used to produce transformative understandings of specific fan texts through the combination of participatory practices and a video essay framework. The goal of this research is to explore how the use of the video essay by fans prompts new ways of understanding the video essay and its functions within the fields of digital media, criticism, and fan studies.
Legal Protections Accorded to Persons with Disabilities under Ethiopian Law
Creators: name: Admasu, Belayneh
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2022

description: Persons with disabilities are marginalized members of society who do not fully
and effectively participate in socio-economic activities on an equal basis with
others due to various barriers in the environment. Taking this into account, the
United Nations has promulgated the Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities, which complements general human rights instruments and gives
particular emphasis to respect and protection of the rights of persons with
disabilities. As a member state, Ethiopia ratified the convention and enacted
other domestic laws to ensure equality before the law and benefits for persons
with disabilities. This article appraises these laws in order to examine the level
of protection accorded to persons with disabilities in Ethiopia. For this
purpose, the article gives emphasis to the rights to equality and nondiscrimination, access to the environment, information and communication,
employment, and tertiary education.

description: This paper is the result of the International Cometary Workshop, held in Toulouse, France in April 2014, where the participants came together to assess our knowledge of comets prior to the ESA Rosetta Mission. In this paper, we look at the composition of the gas and dust from the comae of comets. With the gas, we cover the various taxonomic studies that have broken comets into groups and compare what is seen at all wavelengths. We also discuss what has been learned from mass spectrometers during flybys. A few caveats for our interpretation are discussed. With dust, much of our information comes from flybys. They include {\it in situ} analyses as well as samples returned to Earth for laboratory measurements. Remote sensing IR observations and polarimetry are also discussed. For both gas and dust, we discuss what instruments the Rosetta spacecraft and Philae lander will bring to bear to improve our understanding of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as "ground-truth" for our previous comprehensive studies. Finally, we summarize some of the initial Rosetta Mission findings.

description: In this paper, a class of neutral type high-order Hopfield neural networks with mixed time-varying delays and leakage delays on time scales is proposed. Based on the exponential dichotomy of linear dynamic equations on time scales, Banach's fixed point theorem and the theory of calculus on time scales, some sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence and global exponential stability of pseudo almost periodic solutions for this class of neural networks. Our results are completely new. Finally, we present an example to illustrate our results are effective. Our example also shows that the continuous-time neural network and its discrete-time analogue have the same dynamical behaviors for the pseudo almost periodicity.

description: За время путешествия Д. Г. Мессершмидтом были собраны большие зоологические коллекции. В них оказались представлены как сборы беспозвоночных животных, в том числе большая коллекция бабочек, так и позвоночных — сборы рыб из сибирских рек, орнитологические и териологические коллекции.
    В дневниках Д. Г. Мессершмидта содержится множество сведений о млекопитающих и их образе жизни, в том числе и о промысловых зверях. Настоящее исследование посвящено изучению списка млекопитающих, приведенного Д. Г. Мессершмидтом в «Sibiria Perlustrata». По всей видимости, большую часть упомянутых животных путешественник видел сам. Несмотря на свою неполноту, объясняемую прикладной медицинской задачей составления, список млекопитающих в «Sibiria Perlustrata» был первым списком этих животных, обитающих в Сибири, да и во всей Российской империи. Он сохраняет свою ценность, поскольку содержит интересные документированные данные о распространении животных в Сибири в начале XVIII в. Отдельный интерес список млекопитающих в «Sibiria Perlustrata» представляет для исторической филологии, поскольку он фиксирует названия животных на различных языках, которые использовались в начале XVIII в.
The Infant Mortality Racial Disparity in North Carolina: Contributing Social/Behavioral and Biomedical Risk Factors
Creators: name: Forestieri, Nina
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: Objectives: This study examined a number of social/behavioral and biomedical factors as potential mediators of the association between race and infant mortality, with maternal education as an effect modifier. Methods: Birth certificate data from singleton, non-Hispanic white and African American births to North Carolina residents in 2009 were used to calculate odds of infant mortality adjusting for race and potential mediators, stratified by maternal education. Results: The racial disparity between white and African American infants was reduced but remained significant after adjusting for mediators, and the disparity increased with increasing level of maternal education. Conclusions: Social/behavioral and biomedical factors contribute to the association between race and infant mortality. However, additional factors likely influence the racial disparity, particularly among mothers with higher levels of education.

Compensation for Expropriation in Ethiopia and the UK: A Comparative Analysis
Creators: name: Weldegebriel, Daniel Ambaye
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2022

description: Land expropriation, also known as compulsory purchase in the UK, is a
common practice both in the UK and Ethiopia. The purpose of this paper is to
compare and contrast the valuation systems and compensation methods used
in Ethiopia and the UK in a bid to establish the levels of compensation paid to
those who have lost their property in the interest of society. The method
employed is micro-comparison, as opposed to macro-level comparison which
focuses on the general aspect of comparison of two legal systems. The
findings of this study show that the principle of compensation as “the full
recompense of the property lost” has been observed in the UK, while this has
not been the case in Ethiopia, mainly because the land has no value to the holder.

description: Д. Г. Мессершмидт положил начало сбору и научному изучению останков сибирского мамонта. Применив научные методы своего времени, он установил, что ископаемый слон, известный в Европе, и сибирский мамонт — это одно и то же млекопитающее, родственное современному слону. Д. Г. Мессершмидт опроверг представление о том, что ископаемый слон в Европе и мамонт в Сибири — это библейский бегемот (Behemoth). Выявив приуроченность находок останков мамонта глинисто-песчаным отложениям в поймах сибирских рек, Д. Г. Мессершмидт впервые дал некоторые палеонтологические характеристики осадочных пород четвертичного периода эпохи плейстоцена. Он также описал или обозначил на карте несколько мест находок и тем самым наметил ориентиры первой карты сибирской мамонтовой фауны. Исследования Д. Г. Мессершмидта стали вкладом в зарождающиеся науки — палеонтологию и геологию (в области стратиграфии).
Child Participation: A Forgotten ‘P’ Under the Ethiopian Legal System?
Creators: name: Alamaw, Yitagesu Muluneh
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2022

description: The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia’s 1995 Constitution
has been praised for its long and relatively comprehensive list of
human rights, providing for the rights of the child under Article 36.
However, it has not categorically specified the principles underlying
these rights, which are enshrined in the United Nations Convention on
the Rights of the Child, 1989 (CRC), and the African Charter on the
Rights and Well-being of the Child, 1991 (ACRWC). Thus it is logical
to question the constitutional placement of these principles. This article
analyzes one of the basic principles upon which the rights of the child
are established, i.e., participation. The author attempts to evaluate the
place of children’s right to participation within the hierarchy of the
Constitution and the legal system it establishes.
Although the Constitution does not explicitly provide for participation
as one of the principles underlying the rights of the child in the CRC
and the ACRWC, Ethiopian legislation as well as practice in the legal
system affords opportunities in which children’s right to participate may
be implemented. Thus, the author recommends that the Constitution be
read critically where the rights of the child are concerned, and further
recommend the strengthening of practices that recognize children’s
right to participation and the creation of more space to accommodate it
properly, as there are limitations at present in these areas. Finally, the
the author advocates proper utilization of the rule of interpretation
provided under the Constitution, as this rule has great significance in
the realization of the right to child participation and general protection
of this right.

description: We theoretically analyze the influence of chemical disorder on magnetic anisotropy in Ge_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te semiconductor layers known to exhibit carrier-induced ferromagnetism and ferroelectric distortion of rhombohedral crystal lattice. Using DFT method we determine the local changes in the crystal structure due to Mn ions substitution for Ge and due to the presence in Ge_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te of very high concentration of cation vacancies. We calculate the effect of this structural and chemical disorder on single ion magnetic anisotropy mechanism and show that its contribution is order of magnitude smaller as compared to magnetic anisotropy mechanism originating from the spin polarization induced by Mn ions into neighboring Te and Ge ions. We also discuss magnetic anisotropy effects due to pairs of Mn ions differently allocated in the lattice. The spatial averaging over chemical disorder strongly reduces the strength of this magnetic anisotropy mechanism and restores the global rhombohedral symmetry of magnetic system.

description: The profile of entrepreneurship educators is as unexplored as it is diverse. While many studies in entrepreneurship education (EE) look at students and their entrepreneurial learning process (e.g., Peterman and Kennedy, 2003; Fayolle et al., 2006; Pittaway and Cope, 2007; Müller, 2009), they have so far paid little attention to the profiles of educators. Educators’ profiles, however, might play a key role in the quality of delivery of EE. This study therefore aims at filling this research gap by analysing educator profiles and their potential impact. This interdependency has become all the more important in the course of striving towards the “entrepreneurial university” (Clark, 1998). National policymakers have increasingly set the target of developing entrepreneurial profiles for their higher education institutions (HEIs) (cf. Potter, 2008; Schleinkofer and Kulicke, 2009). But building and driving entrepreneurial universities will require faculties with suitable competencies, e.g. building networks between universities and external players.

Five-Year Trends in Pediatric Healthcare-Associated Infections: A Review of Data from an Academic Research Hospital
Creators: name: Feinberg, Rose
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Objective: To assess the incidence of healthcare-associated infections (HAI) and the prevalence of pathogens across all pediatric units within a single hospital, and trends in pediatric HAI over a 5-year time period for both device and non-device-associated HAI. Setting: Four units within an academic acute tertiary care hospital in the United States: pediatric intensive care unit, newborn critical care center, children's intermediate and cardiac care, and pediatric nursing units. Patients: Hospitalized children (<18 years of age). Methods: Review of prospectively obtained, comprehensive hospital-wide surveillance, 2008-2012, from an 806-bed acute care academic hospital. Surveillance data was obtained by trained infection control professionals using CDC/NHSN criteria for HAI. Results: Over the five-year study period, the leading types of HAI were CLASBI (18.55%), tracheobronchitis (18.03%), and UTI (12.16%). The highest overall infection rate per 1,000 patient-days was in the PICU (11.23), followed by the CICC (4.96), the NCCC (3.87), and the inpatient floors (2.83). The overall infection rate decreased in all pediatric units with the greatest decline in the PICU. The incidence of CLASBI, CAUTI, and UTI decreased significantly, while the incidence of VAP, NVAP, and BSI did not change significantly. From the 954 identified HAI cases, 1131 pathogens were isolated including Staphylococcus aureus (n=156, 13.79%), Escherichia coli (n=104, 9.20%), and Enterococcus sp (n=103, 9.11%). Conclusion: Pediatric HAI decreased in incidence. Future research is needed to determine the interventions that have driven this decline and to better understand the lower relative percentages of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens in pediatric versus adult populations.

Some Remarks on the Anomalies in the Ethiopian Tax Legislative Process
Creators: name: Yilma, Kinfe Micheal
Publisher: name: Bahir Dar University Journal of Law
Year: 2022

description: Ignorance of the legislative process on the part of legal academics has been
a cause for concern for so long. Several decades back, an American writer
rebuked lawyers’ reluctance, not just for researching the subject, but for
taking far less effort to understand it. He had even capitalized the ‘disturbing’
state of the ignorance by epitomizing it as ‘deliberate ignorance’. This
concern is still lingering in the academic sphere and bureaucracy six decades
after Moffat expressed his lament. A relatively recent survey has revealed the
very little attention paid both in the academic literature and in recurrent
technical assistance missions of global financial institutions to legislative
processes, especially to the tax legislative process in developing and
transitional economies.


 These sorts of problems are also rampant in Ethiopia. But, this might not be
that much surprising given the dearth of scholars in the field and the scant
literature on the subject in the country. There are flaws of various sorts, particularly in the tax legislative process.4 This brief reflection seeks to put up examples of such problems upfront and asks why these problems are still left
to reign for nearly two decades after the Constitution of the Federal Democratic
Republic of Ethiopia has been put in place. It questions why the meager
literature on the subject is still shying away from the problem. However, it
should be clear at the outset that this piece does not purport to offer a
conclusive analysis of the problems in this area and it doesn’t pretend to
forward comprehensive solutions. The piece is organized as follows. First, it
explains what is meant by “legislative process” in this context, and then it goes
on to raise some anomalies. Finally, it closes with some suggestions.

description: Convex optimization is a powerful tool for resource allocation and signal processing in wireless networks. As the network density is expected to drastically increase in order to accommodate the exponentially growing mobile data traffic, performance optimization problems are entering a new era characterized by a high dimension and/or a large number of constraints, which poses significant design and computational challenges. In this paper, we present a novel two-stage approach to solve large-scale convex optimization problems for dense wireless cooperative networks, which can effectively detect infeasibility and enjoy modeling flexibility. In the proposed approach, the original large-scale convex problem is transformed into a standard cone programming form in the first stage via matrix stuffing, which only needs to copy the problem parameters such as channel state information (CSI) and quality-of-service (QoS) requirements to the pre-stored structure of the standard form. The capability of yielding infeasibility certificates and enabling parallel computing is achieved by solving the homogeneous self-dual embedding of the primal-dual pair of the standard form. In the solving stage, the operator splitting method, namely, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), is adopted to solve the large-scale homogeneous self-dual embedding. Compared with second-order methods, ADMM can solve large-scale problems in parallel with modest accuracy within a reasonable amount of time. Simulation results will demonstrate the speedup, scalability, and reliability of the proposed framework compared with the state-of-the-art modeling frameworks and solvers.

description: Il corpo del malato, come già il corpo femminile è da sempre assoggettato a una parola estranea alla propria realtà. La storia delle donne e la storia dei pazienti non sono poi così distanti: in entrambi i casi siamo di fronte a una storia di codifica dei corpi. La malattia e l’ospedale sono il terreno di coltura di una presenza femminile straordinariamente antica ma che possiamo sottoporre ad una interpretazione di tipo nuovo. Questa presenza ha, da sempre, messo in campo una soggettività diversa da quella ideata dai meccanismi di produzione del paziente a uso e consumo del mercato, delle burocrazie e delle strutture del potere. Su questa traccia deve muoversi la trasformazione del paziente nel paziente in carne e ossa bisognoso di cura.

The body of the patient, like the female body, has always been subjected to a word that is foreign to its own reality. The history of women and the history of patients are not so distant: in both cases we are facing a history of codification of bodies. Illness and hospital are the breeding ground of an extraordinarily ancient female presence, subjected to a new kind of interpretation. This presence has always highlighted a subjectivity different from the one created by the patient production mechanisms for market’s use and consumption, bureaucracies and power structures.  The transformation of the patient into flesh and blood patient, needing care, must move along this track.

description: HESS J1841$-$055 is a diffuse unidentified gamma-ray source with the size of $\sim\,1.3^{\circ}\times\,1^{\circ}$. No conclusive counterpart in other wavelengths has so far detected. To search for X-rays responsible for the TeV emission, the Suzaku observations were conducted, which covered a half region of the HESS source. In the soft band (0.5-2.0 keV), we discovered a diffuse emission, Suzaku J1840.2$-$0552, with the size of $\sim10'$. Since its spectrum was fitted by an optically thin thermal plasma model, Suzaku J1840.2$-$0552 is likely to be a supernova remnant. We also discovered an extended source, Suzaku J1840.2$-$0544, in the hard band (2.0-8.0 keV) with an emission line at 6.1 keV. From the spectral feature and large interstellar absorption, this source is likely to be a cluster of galaxies behind the Galactic plane at the red-shift of $\sim$0.09. The other diffuse source spatially overlaps with the SNR candidate G26.6$-$0.2, which shows a non-thermal dominant spectrum. Since no other candidate is found in the hard X-ray band, we infer that these largely extended sources could be possible counterparts of HESS J1841$-$055.

description: This thesis explored whether youth mentoring could be used as a crime prevention strategy for Ontario. It examined risk factors for youth crime and social bonding theory, the effectiveness of selected programs to prevent crime and best practices, and Ontario government reports on effective crime prevention. It also explored youth mentoring in practice with some mentors from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Ottawa and Sudbury Ontario. The analysis of the literature on risk factors for youth crime identified a number of individual, relationship, community, and societal level factors that correlate with the likelihood of a young person engaging in crime. Travis Hirschi’s social bonding theory provided a lens to understand the contribution mentoring can have on preventing crime through attachment, commitment, involvement, and belief with parents and schools. The evidence-based research on the effectiveness of selected programs that had a mentoring component showed that the likelihood of offending could be reduced with other well-being indicators. Research on mentoring relationships showed that when mentors focused on the assets of the youth and were committed to the relationship, they could foster a lasting emotional bond. Best practices of an effective youth mentoring program included outreaching to vulnerable youth, involving parents, screening and training mentors, matching mentors and mentees based on background, having mentoring connected to a larger strategy, following a developmental approach, and developing standards for implementation. The recent reports from the Province of Ontario on crime prevention and community safety use much of the same evidence on risk factors and social development programs to confirm that prevention is an effective way to reduce crime. These reports also point to strong public support for government investment in prevention and education over punishment. The semi-structured interviews with mentoring practitioners in Sudbury and Ottawa, Ontario analyzed the methods used by mentors volunteering with high-risk youth in the Big Brothers Big Sisters community-based program. Results showed the organizational procedure, youth and risk factors, the bonding process between mentors and mentees, and challenges of mentoring at-risk youth were important. Mentors had positive beliefs on the impacts mentoring had on preventing crime and violence. Therefore, youth mentoring is a crime prevention strategy consistent with evidence and government reports and so is viable, but will require political support and investment upstream to make a difference across the province.
The Relationship between the International Criminal Court and Africa: From Cooperation to Confrontation?

description: Abstract


The International Criminal Court (ICC) was set up by virtue of the Rome Statute to prosecute and punish core crimes – genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes of aggression. The ICC has jurisdiction over such crimes in States Parties to the Rome Statute and other States whose situation is referred to it by the Security Council. To date, the ICC has opened 18 cases in 8 situations which are all from Africa. As a result, some African leaders complained that the ICC has unfairly targeted Africans and described the Court as “a Court of Western countries.” The African Union has also referred to the ICC as an impediment to peace and has eventually called African ICC member States for non-cooperation with the Court. This article thus explores the relationship between the ICC and Africa and examines some criticisms of the Court in the exercise of its jurisdiction in Africa.

Rising Stars: An Analysis of the Persistence of Girls on the Run Curriculum on Program Alumnae
Creators: name: Pollak, Meghan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: "Rising Stars: An Analysis of the Persistence of Girls on the Run Curriculum on Program Alumnae" is an outcome analysis on the long-term effects of the Girls on the Run curriculum on recent program graduates. Although GOTR-T collects pre- and post-intervention survey data up to five months after program completion, it does not currently have information on the long-term effects (i.e., sustainability) of its program on GOTR-T graduates who finished the program two to four years ago. This information is important because it will help GOTR-T to determine further ways to support young girls' growth and development and work to be an empowering and positive force in their lives. Additionally, the current study builds upon previous studies by examining the longer-term effects of program curriculum and providing an intimate perspective of the effects on program alumnae in the Triangle specifically. The longitudinal examination of the effects of GOTR-T is vital in order to determine if and how the intervention is meeting its set targets, whether strategic changes in the intervention are necessary, and to provide their donor-base with their milestones and outcomes to secure funding. Lastly, results from this study will help shed light on the current health of girls in North Carolina specifically. The primary investigator conducted a short survey that aims to understand if program graduates successfully internalized lessons from the curriculum. This survey focuses specifically on the topics of self-esteem, body image, and physical activity. Furthermore, the study aims to discern whether GOTR provided program participants with the tools necessary to avoid risky behavior and be healthy, and confident middle schoolers.

description: L’articolo prende in esame i tornei di scrittura collettiva e grafica per le scuole condotti tramite blog negli anni 2007/2008 e 2008/2009. Tali tornei, coordinati dall’associazione culturale «Progetto e Materia» in collaborazione con il 3° Circolo Didattico di Ivrea, hanno vinto il premio «Gold 2009» come esperienza didattica più innovativa nell’area dell’educazione linguistica. La costruzione delle fiabe è stata strutturata in base agli schemi narrativi e alle funzioni dei personaggi individuati da Propp e Greimas ed è avvenuta mediante l’interazione tra classi-squadra che inserivano i propri contributi sotto forma di commento nei blog predisposti dall’associazione. La scelta del blog come mezzo di costruzione collettiva della fiaba faceva invece riferimento a considerare internet come una fonte di informazioni da utilizzare in modo attivo e per favorire la condivisione di idee e risorse.

Strong-coupling electron-phonon superconductivity in noncentrosymmetric quasi-one-dimensional K$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$

description: I study the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon coupling in non-centrosymmetric quasi-one-dimensional K$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$ using density functional theory based first principles calculations. The phonon dispersions show stable phonons without any soft-mode behavior. They also exhibit features that point to a strong interaction of K atoms with the lattice. I find that the calculated Eliashberg spectral function shows a large enhancement around 50 cm$^{-1}$. The phonon modes that show large coupling involve in-plane motions of all three species of atoms. The $\mathbf{q}$ dependent electron-phonon coupling decreases strongly away from the $q_z = 0$ plane. The total electron-phonon coupling is large with a value of $λ_{\textrm{ep}} = 3.0$, which readily explains the experimentally observed large mass enhancement.

description: Abstract
This article sets out to evaluate whether the Ethiopian constitutional adjudicator
meets standards of independence and impartiality to handle the constitutional
adjudicatory roles. It assesses the institutional organization of the constitutional
adjudicator, and how and by whom its members are elected or appointed. It considers
the various elements and aspects of independence and impartiality and the factors
that affect each one of them. To make a meticulous assessment of the Ethiopian
constitutional adjudicator in light of those internationally accepted standards, the
Article undertakes a comparative analysis with the constitutional adjudicators of two
other jurisdictions, Germany and South Africa. It identifies the weak sides of the
Ethiopian constitutional adjudicator. Finally, the Article draws conclusions.

Theoretical models for NO decomposition in Cu-exchanged zeolites

description: A unified description of the catalytic effect of Cu-exchanged zeolites is proposed for the decomposition of NO. A general expression for the rate constant of NO decomposition is obtained by assuming that the rate-determining step consists of the transferring of a single atom associated with breaking of the N-O bond. The analysis is performed on the base of the generalized Langevin equation and takes into account both the potential interactions in the system and the memory effects due to the zeolite vibrations. Two different mechanisms corresponding to monomolecular and bimolecular NO decomposition are discussed. The catalytic effect in the monomolecular mechanism is related to both the Cu+ ions and zeolite O-vacancies, while in the case of the bimolecular mechanism the zeolite contributes through dissipation only. The comparison of the theoretically calculated rate constants with experimental results reveals additional information about the geometric and energetic characteristics of the active centers and confirms the logic of the proposed models.
