subject: milk prices
subject: regression analysis
subject: logit analysis

description: In 1994 Milk Marketing Boards in the UK were disbanded, their role as milk purchasers was taken by more than 100 licensed organisations. It is shown that this change resulted in an increase in the variation between producers' milk price. The majority of dairy farmers sold milk through the Milk Marketing Boards designated successor; a farmer owned co-operative called Milk Marque. In doing so they accepted a 1.5 ppl milk price penalty. It is shown farmers who adopted this strategy did so because of the perceived financial security of Milk Marque, goodwill and support for the principle of co-operative marketing and in an attempt to protect the milk price over the longer-term. The marketing environment changed once again in 2000 when Milk Marque was disbanded. Deductions drawn from the analyses of farmers' behaviour following the 1994 deregulation are used to inform consideration of possible developments in the marketing of milk in England and Wales.
Segni nello spazio pubblico. Communication design e narrazione dei luoghi
Creators: name: Cerri, Susanna

Year: 2020

description: The contribution investigates the role of communication design as a useful tool, in order to improve the relationship between places and inhabitants and turn our gaze on the deep bond between citizens, cities and signs. The city is seen as a device that enters into relationship, not only through physical elements, but also through allowed or suggested routes, rules and prohibitions incorporated in signage: it is precisely from the narration of places, from the elements that populate them, that you perceive specifically the city. To support this thesis, significant experiences realized internationally by designers and landscape architects such as Ruedi Baur, Catherine Linder, Malte Martin are illustrated.

description: The presence of learners with a migrant background requires the educational system to be geared especially with regards to educational communication. In the school context, there has recently been a transition from a situation of greater stability to a context in which change and therefore discontinuity are on the agenda. This brings great opportunities thanks to the multitude of stimuli presented and offered to students, but at the same time a dangerous risk of early school leaving. The essay will discuss some data of educational and language educational nature, related to a multidisciplinary research, started from 2019/2020, related to the communication between schools, teachers, students, and their families, during SARS-CoV-2 health emergency.

description: Drastic changes in Dutch agriculture have made agricultural entrepreneurship increasingly complex. But are farmers dealing with this complexity, and if so, how? This study, entitled "The mystery of entrepreneurship", attempts to answer these questions. The aim of the research is to provide insight into the actual state of the art of Dutch agricultural entrepreneurship. This will clarify for policy makers how, and if, agricultural entrepreneurs are dealing with the radical changes in agriculture that are facing them. Answers to these questions will indicate how agricultural entrepreneurship can be stimulated. The final stage of the research will consider how to translate the results into agricultural education. The research will be focussed on the personal characteristics of entrepreneurs, on the different strategies they use to deal with the radical changes in agriculture, on their use of the knowledge infrastructure and, consequently, their use of social networks and on innovativeness. In addition, managerial tasks of entrepreneurs will be studied as well as the extent to which different farmers are oriented towards products, processes, system, chain and society, because this gives an impression of the stage of development of the farms. A survey of 1500 agricultural entrepreneurs, supplemented by more detailed qualitative information gathered from 45 farms by means of structural interviewing, comprise the material for answering our questions about entrepreneurship. Some preliminary results are presented here to illustrate how a farm feature, such as a way of farming, an environmental factor such as region and a personal feature such as age, can affect entrepreneurship.

description: We propose and investigate a procedure to measure, at least in principle, a positive quantum version of the local kinetic energy density. This procedure is based, under certain idealized limits, on the detection rate of photons emitted by moving atoms which are excited by a localized laser beam. The same type of experiment, but in different limits, can also provide other non positive-definite versions of the kinetic energy density. A connection with quantum arrival time distributions is discussed.

A High-Accident Spot-Improvement Program

Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky

Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: As a result of an extensive before-and-after accident study, the high-accident location, spot-improvement program in Kentucky, although not a costly program, was found to have significantly decreased the number of motor vehicle accidents. Favorable benefit-cost ratios indicated that the cost of the program has represented a good investment in comparison with the resultant savings in accident costs. The spot-improvement program had little effect on average accident severity as measured by a severity index. Detailed analysis of available accident data showed that, for studies of the type reported, the 12-month period immediately prior to the date of identification of a high-accident location is not a reliable period for representing the actual long-term "before" accident experience. A much more acceptable period is the 12 months beginning 2 years in advance of the date of identification. Further analysis also showed that a route segment of 0.1 mile (0.16 km) is not of sufficient length for properly identifying high-accident locations or for accumulating accident statistics to support a before-and-after study. Since only slightly more than five percent of the identified high-accident locations were judged to warrant improvement, the procedure used in Kentucky for identifying high-accident locations, namely, those having three or more accidents at a 0.1-mile (0.16-km) location during a 12-month period, was found to be inefficient.
Le capacità relazionali degli educatori nel lavoro con le famiglie. Problematiche emergenti con genitori di figli disabili
Creators: name: Fratini, Tommaso
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Educazione Familiare
Year: 2020

description: The article describes some educators’ ways of working with families based on relational capacities, aimed at integrating educational work with parents, specifically those with children with disabilities. Starting from a review of the psychoanalytic concept of projective identification, in particular according to the revision by Wilfred Bion, who emphasized its primitive value of communication, a model of intervention with the parents of disabled children is proposed which emphasizes the role of the transfer of projective identifications and the potential transformative value of the educator’s relational capacity. Ultimately, it emerges how much pain is denied in many families with disabled children and how important it is to translate it into words and communicate it, so that one can think about it and progressively process and overcome it. This type of psychic work is a valid complement to the more general educational work of parenting: a job that aims in the direction of the formation of a responsible and aware parenting.

Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: Accident records involving guardrails were analyzed and summarized.  Guardrail-related accidents comprised a significant percentage of interstate and parkway accidents, particularly those resulting in fatalities. Guardrail involvement in accidents was much less on primary and secondary highways than on interstates and parkways.  The severity of guardrail-related accidents was higher than the average severity of all accidents. The severity of guardrail-related accidents was higher on the primary and secondary system than on the interstate and parkway system.  Guardrails have not been very successful in redirecting vehicles parallel to traffic. The largest number of severe injuries involved vehicles vaulting over the guardrail Increased angles of impact with the W-beam guardrail resulted in accidents of higher severity due to a higher percentage of vehicles vaulting the guardrail. Vehicle penetration through the W-beam guardrail was limited mostly to heavy trucks.  The W-beam guardrail as railing on short bridges on primary and secondary highways is another problem area which may be minimized with the use of the Thrie beam guardrail.  Collisions with the guardrail end had a much higher severity than collisions downstream from the leading end. The buried end treatment provided a significant improvement over the blunt guardrail end; ramping and subsequent rollover remain as the major cause of high severity accidents with the buried guardrail end.  No accident experience is available for the new breakaway cable terminal.  The severity of collisions with concrete median barriers has been considerably less than with W-beam barriers; this is true primarily because vaulting or breaking through the barrier has been eliminated by the concrete type of barrier.  Guardpost-type barriers, remaining from previous times, do not provide effective protection. Guardposts connected with cables were not effective because vehicles tended to go over or through the barrier.
Scuola e famiglia del bambino di origine immigrata, portatore di disabilità. Prove di dialogo e di alleanza educativa

description: The paper focuses on the relationship between school and the family of the child of migrant origin, bearer of disability, as an important space for mutual recognition and understanding, in view of the development of educational synergies and accompanying strategies in the growth process, aimed at obtaining conditions of personal well-being, quality of life and social inclusion. If immigration and disability make the child and his/her family very vulnerable, the educational intervention and the didactic proposal intend to create opportunities to raise the quality of the child’s living environments and, consequently, his/her global development opportunities.

description: Parent Management Training (PMT) is a support intervention whose effectiveness has been amply demonstrated by international literature; it aims to provide tools for families of children and young people with developmental disorders and behavioral problems in the management of children in everyday life contexts. This study wanted to analyze the effectiveness of the PMT, involving a group of Italian families with children with autism, who undertook the path, both individual and group, carried out in telematic mode, during the lockdown caused by the health emergency Covid-19. Semi-structured interviews were used to analyze the quality and effectiveness of these support pathways in videoconference. The results testify the goodness of PMT programs both in the psychological support to the parents involved, and in the behavioral management of their children. The research showed that the quality of the distance support experience is conditioned by the communicative and socio-relational skills of the professionals who have conducted such support paths.

description: Starting from the results of a research conducted in Liguria with families of children with disabilities and with nursery educators, the contribution intends to reflect on the importance of developing good interpersonal and communicative skills in educators of early childhood services. The results of the research in fact highlight how the choice of families to allow their child with disabilities to attend the nursery depends, rather than on specific knowledge on disability, on the ways in which educators know how to welcome parents, support them and involve them in the realization of the educational experience. The importance of developing soft skills raises some questions around which we try to reason in the contribution. In particular, we want to understand if the current university courses manage to encourage the development of these skills and which teaching methodologies should be incentivized to achieve this goal.

Hence, it is also necessary to reflect on the concept of “care”, recognizing its political value and, therefore, the emancipatory character of each educational action aimed at recognizing the other and his/her ability to be the main interpreter of his/her own needs.

description: In this paper, firstly several different agri-food chain leaders are to be considered, such as aged and/or women farmers, supermarkets, consumers' cooperatives, and big general trade company. Secondly the high nature value of food is to be dealt with the matters Japanese consumers are concerned. The diligent working attitude of aged persons and women has led to the production in small amount, in fresh, with low pesticide use and in many varieties. Producers sell products in different modalities such as renting a space from cooperatives, consignment to cooperatives at direct sales shop, and buying-out of all products by agricultural cooperatives. Moreover some farmers shipment groups in city carry out the direct selling to supermarkets in contract. Japan's consumer cooperatives conduct two pillar businesses of "Sanchoku-Teikei" (direct transaction of food and coop-PB products under contract with producers) and operating supermarket-level stores. The co-ops have developed joint buying system in which members form small group units of 5-10 households called "Han" through which they place advance orders for various kinds of goods. The big general trading company ("Sogo Shosha") has the power for developing new businesses through closer ties with local government to assists local areas in taking new approaches to agriculture to achieve regional redevelopment. Japanese consumers seek agricultural products and their processed food with high quality, and are incessantly renewing the concept and contents regarding the high value. A movement linking consumers to agriculturalists has started, in which the concept is defined as the nature management agriculture and the products produced under it are recognized as "high nature value".

description: In this article, we propose and apply a method to compare adaptations of the same story across different media. We tackle this task by modelling such adaptations through character networks. We compare them by leveraging two concepts at the core of storytelling: the characters involved, and the dynamics of the story. We propose several methods to match characters between media and compare their position in the networks; and perform narrative matching, i.e. match the sequences of narrative units that constitute the plots. We apply these methods to the novel series \textit{A Song of Ice and Fire}, by G.R.R. Martin, and its comics and TV show adaptations. Our results show that interactions between characters are not sufficient to properly match individual characters between adaptations, but that using some additional information such as character affiliation or gender significantly improves the performance. On the contrary, character interactions convey enough information to perform narrative matching, and allow us to detect the divergence between the original novels and its TV show adaptation.

description: We investigate the interplay between early universe cosmology and dark matter direct detection, considering axion models with naturally suppressed couplings to photons. In the context of the cosmological relaxation of the electroweak scale, we focus on a scenario of \emph{Relaxion Dark Matter}, in which the relaxion field constitutes all the observed dark matter relic density and its allowed mass range is fixed to a few $\mathrm{keV}$ by construction. In particular, we show that a relaxion particle with mass $m_ϕ= 3.0 \,\mathrm{keV}$ which couples to electrons with $g_{ϕ, e}= 6.8 \times 10^{-14}$ is consistent with the XENON1T excess, while accounting for the observed dark matter and satisfying astro/cosmo probes. This scenario uses the electroweak scale as the link connecting the relaxion production at early times with the dark matter absorption rate in direct detection.

description: The subject of this paper are, in the light of the new ecosystem of the infosphere, transversal media educational competences, related to Information Literacy, which are central to the positive outcome of the territorial socio-educational activities carried out by working groups. The paper presents the case study “Humans of Rizzo-HoR”, in which this perspective is the basis of a territorial social animation, proposed in a suburb of Novara by local authorities with CREMIT of Catholic University. The basic logic of the educational intervention consists in onlife and in the so-called «community technologies» (Rivoltella, 2017a, passim), and in the participation in realizing videos and, in general, in creating a narration emerging “from below”, since the methodology used consists in storytelling. The analysis shows that the convergence between the sphere of communication and that of social work is real and strong. This implies a rethinking of the relationship of educational operators with digital media, to include in their training the concept of media literacy and “new alphabets” for post-media society.

description: The nature of level set percolation in the two-dimension Gaussian Free Field has been an elusive question. Using a loop-model mapping, we show that there is a nontrivial percolation transition, and characterize the critical point. In particular, the correlation length diverges exponentially, and the critical clusters are "logarithmic fractals", whose area scales with the linear size as $A \sim L^2 / \sqrt{\ln L}$. The two-point connectivity also decays as the log of the distance. We corroborate our theory by numerical simulations. Possible CFT interpretations are discussed.

Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: The objectives of this survey were to determine the extent that a left turn on a red traffic signal (LTOR) has been used across the country and to learn how effective it has been. Responses were received from 43 of the 55 cities surveyed. Of the cities responding, 22 have either had past experience with LTOR or have recently enacted an ordinance which will allow LTOR in the future. Most LTOR laws limit its use to intersections of two one-way streets. A much higher percentage of cities in the western United States have laws permitting LTOR than cities in the east.

Development of Warrants for Left-Turn Phasing
Creators: name: Agent, Kenneth R.
Publisher: name: Kentucky Transportation Center, University of Kentucky
Year: 1976
Subjects: subject: Transportation Engineering

description: Warrants for the installation of left-turn phasing were developed. A review of literature was conducted along with a survey of the policies of other states. Field data of delays and conflicts were taken before and after installation of exclusive left-turn signalization. Left-turn delay studies were conducted at intersections with varying volume conditions. Analysis of the effect on accidents of adding a left-turn phase was made. The relationship between left-turn accidents and conflicts was investigated. Other types of analysis concerning gap acceptance, computer simulation, capacity, and benefit-cost ratios were also performed.  It was found that exclusive left-turn phasing significantly reduced left-turn accidents and conflicts. Left-turn delay was only reduced during periods of heavy traffic flow. Warrants were developed dealing with the following four general areas:      accident experience,     delay,     volumes, and     traffic conflicts.

Agricultural and Food Policy

description: In Canada, agriculture and its related industries are undergoing rapid and significant changes. Among the many issues facing farmers and other agri-business people are the development of biotechnologies, the decline of on-farm and rural populations, the emergence of new public policies, concerns over food safety, globalisation of markets, sensitivity to environmental issues, and the influence of regional and global trade agreements. Given the complexity of these issues, and the distinctiveness of various regions, sectors and commodities produced in Canada, there is a need for national agricultural leaders who understand the issues, and have the skills and networks to construct effective responses to those issues. The Canadian Farm Business Management Council has supported the development and pilot testing of a national leadership development program known as Canadian Agriculture Lifetime Leadership (CALL). CALL is a two-year program that selects men and women with demonstrated leadership potential and commitment to the agricultural industry, and provides those men and women with an opportunity to become more effective leaders. In addition to CALL, Ontario and New Brunswick have provincial leadership development programs targeted to agriculture. This paper introduces the context of agricultural leadership development programs in Canada. It then provides a short review of the CALL program and its provincial counterpart in Ontario. Based on this review, and on the perspectives provided by program graduates, a vision for the future of agricultural leadership programs in Canada is presented.

description: This paper addresses the sustainable development of the Flemish greenhouse industry by investigating the optimal size, structure and location of its farms. It emphasizes the importance of a square shape of the greenhouse as optimal structure. Using Data Envelopment Analysis an optimal farm size that varies between 1.7 and 3 hectares has been found, depending on the method used. Location factors that matter in the future Flemish greenhouse industry include temperature, light, transportation costs, air pollution and land prices, while rainfall, wind, output price differences, soil and infection risk do not differentiate between regions.

description: Although active participation of members is a critical success factor for virtual communities, few members actively participate in activities in virtual communities (e.g., posting, commenting, sharing, etc.). This study explores the differences between passive and active community participation from community cohesiveness and community attachment perspectives. Drawing upon a context-specific cohesiveness-attachment-participation framework based on cognition-affection-conation traits of human psychology, we propose a research model and empirically test the roles of community cohesiveness and attachment in virtual community participation. The results suggest that community members’ active participation is positively influenced by both community cohesiveness and community attachment. Visitation, as the passive mode of participation, is influenced by community attachment only. The findings not only inspire future IS research to consider community cohesiveness, attachment, and participation as vital research constructs in other social contexts, but it also helps managers build managerial actions, such as prioritising their limited business resources to increase community members’ active participation, for the success of virtual communities.

description: Several organisations have introduced a new leadership role, the Chief Digital Officer (CDO), as a centralised role in their top management team (TMT), tasked with accelerating and coordinating their digital transformation. While previous research proposes a complementary, tight alignment between the CDO and the Chief Information Officer (CIO), role redundancies and the fight for recognition and resources also suggest an inherent tension. We provide insights into the CIO-CDO collaboration quality based on role, TMT cooperation, conflict theory, and a dyadic design approach of 11 CIO-CDO relationships with 33 expert interviews in two waves. Our findings indicate that the CIO-CDO relationship may not always be as complementary as proposed in the literature; instead, in the vast majority of our dyads, there is too much role conflict to achieve tight alignment, leading to separation behaviour between the roles. We identify the involvement in the introduction of the other role, the CIO demand-side orientation, and the CDO supply-side orientation as important contingency factors determining the quality of the CIO-CDO relationship. Finally, unless the CIO-CDO relationship resembles a perfect match, a unified Chief Digital and Information Officer (CDIO) role may better resolve the challenges we identify in our sample’s dyads. Our insights extend the understanding of the CIO-CDO relationship.

Livestock Production/Industries

description: Technological breakthroughs in agriculture after the Second World War mainly concentrated on crop production (wheat, rice, and later maize). In the livestock production sector, besides the substantial improvements in the poultry and dairy production systems, the development of the other livestock technologies was neglected, due to lower returns when compared to those on crop technology. Nevertheless, the usage of livestock veterinary technologies such as veterinary services and medicines remains important for livestock production as animal diseases are a major cause of poor productivity and high mortality rates, which are major constraints to improve food security. The reasons for poor adoption of livestock veterinary technologies amongst livestock farmers all over the world are not fully understood. There is a generally accepted perception amongst veterinary practitioners that these farmers "react on what they see" when it comes to the adoption of these technologies and prefer a therapeutic approach rather than a preventative one. This hypothesis was never before scientifically tested. This study proved this hypothesis for the first time. The results suggest that medication technologies are mainly adopted once the problem becomes visible. Sheep and goat farmers (small ruminant farmers) in the former homelands only treat their animals for external parasites (ticks and mites) when they can see them on the animal's skin and wool. No farmer in this area adopts a prophylactic approach in preventing external parasites. This attitude explains a much higher adoption of external parasite remedies than internal parasite remedies, as well as a higher adoption of antibiotics (therapeutic medicine) than vaccines (preventative medicine). "Small ruminant farmers react on what they see when it comes to disease control."

description: Single neutral atoms trapped in optical tweezers and laser-coupled to Rydberg states provide a fast and flexible platform to generate configurable atomic arrays for quantum simulation. The platform is especially suited to study quantum spin systems in various geometries. However, for experiments requiring continuous trapping, inhomogeneous light shifts induced by the trapping potential and temperature broadening impose severe limitations. Here we show how Raman sideband cooling allows one to overcome those limitations, thus, preparing the stage for Rydberg dressing in tweezer arrays.
La mediazione del cambiamento nel processo comunicativo e relazionale. La pedagogia di Feuerstein e il modello del colloquio motivazionale di Miller e Rollnick

description: The training processes constitute a systemic dimension in which the educator is part of the system itself: he/she puts himself at stake, shares, builds, coexists, and participates together with people in training within a communicative flow, in which the relational dimension is the key for growth and change processes. In this proposal, we focus on two theoretical and methodological models that aim to accompany the educational processes of cognitive and behavioural change: namely, the Mediated Learning Experience, conceived by Feuerstein (1980), and Miller and Rollnick’s motivational interview (1991, 2002). A strong and cohesive theoretical-methodological framework that easily allows educators to propose their principles in schools, families and environment in order to considerably improve educational practices, with particular reference to the relational and communicative style, supports them both. They are structured around clear and simple methodological criteria, which allow educators immediate application in the training relationship aimed at changing.

description: This work presents the first large-scale photometric variability survey of the intermediate age (~200 Myr) open cluster M11. Thirteen nights of data over two observing seasons were analyzed (using crowded field and ensemble photometry techniques) to obtain high relative precision photometry. In this study we focus on the detection of candidate member variable stars for follow-up studies. A total of 39 variable stars were detected and can be categorized as follows: 1 irregular (probably pulsating) variable, 6 delta Scuti variables, 14 detached eclipsing binary systems, 17 W UMa variables, and 1 unidentified/candidate variable. While previous proper motion studies allow for cluster membership determination for the brightest stars, we find that membership determination is significantly hampered below V=15,R=15.5 by the large population of field stars overlapping the cluster MS. Of the brightest detected variables that have a high likelihood of cluster membership, we find five systems where further work could help constrain theoretical stellar models, including one potential W UMa member of this young cluster.

description: Additional file 1: Supplemental Figure S1. PDIA3−/− reduces cellular growth rate in immortalized hCMEC/d3 human endothelial brain cells. A) We tested whether PDIA3−/− changed cell replication in CMECs. Counts were performed from brightfield images taken at 24 h intervals (100x magnification). Fields were overlaid with a 225 x 225 μm grid and a total area of 0.4 mm2 was counted per field over a total of 3 random fields per well, each field covered 1.47 mm2. Cell counts were normalized to cell numbers at 24 h after plating to account for slight differences in plating and cells that did not adhere. B) PDIA3−/− and WT cells grew at the same rate over the initial 24–48 h for both genotypes. For WT cells, cell growth continued to increase at 24 h until the cells reached confluence. On the other hand slowed PDIA3−/− growth rate slowed. C) We ruled out that cell death was increased in PDIA3−/− which might account for differences in cell number. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), released upon cell membrane damage, was not different between WT and PDIA3−/− cells between 48–72 h, a period which showed differing growth rates between the two genotypes.
Disegnare il futuro della formazione nella direzione della resilienza trasformativa e della sostenibilità

description: The urgency to undertake a path of transformation, both educational and formative, towards sustainability is increasingly clear. Starting from a reflection on the educational emergency situation, the paper is divided into four parts: 1) the dimensions that help to understand the concept of transformative resilience; 2) the skills required for the professional development of the educator; 3) the areas of intervention and work practices; 4) the methodologies of formativity and generativity in support of social interaction and active participation. The training of educators is called more than anything else to promote the principles of transformative resilience to learn the future.

description: Digital transformation (DT) is typically described as a strategic, top-down initiative where new digital technologies fundamentally disrupt an organisation’s structure, procedures, and processes to enhance its value proposition. We propose a middle-range theory which highlights that DT of professional practices in healthcare follows a different path. To build this theory, we transpose the metaphor of a “fitness landscape” from evolutionary biology to a professional healthcare context to build an intermediate conceptualisation, which is then refined through an empirical study. Our theory highlights that external events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, changing patient behaviours or the availability of new digital resources, transform the “value landscape” upon which healthcare professionals create and deliver healthcare services to patients. Empowered by their professional autonomy and driven by their service orientation, healthcare professionals search for new paths and peaks for value creation and delivery across a rugged landscape. As digital resources are leveraged, new value propositions in practice emerge, and professional healthcare practices are digitally transformed.

description: We have studied the correlations among the three absolute neutrino mass observables - the effective Majorana mass ($m_{ee}$) which can be obtained from neutrinoless double beta decay, the electron neutrino mass ($m_β$) which is measured in single beta decay experiments and the sum of the light neutrino masses ($Σ$) which is constrained from cosmological observations, in the context of minimal left-right symmetric model. Two phenomenologically interesting cases of type-I seesaw dominance as well as type-II seesaw dominance have been considered. We have taken into account the independent constraints coming from lepton flavor violation, single $β$ decay, cosmology and neutrinoless double beta decay and have determined the combined allowed parameter space that can be probed in the future experiments. We have also analyzed the correlations and tensions between the different mass variables. In addition, the constraints on the masses of the heavy particles coming from lepton flavor violation and the bounds on three absolute neutrino mass observables are also determined. We show that these constraints can rule out some of the parameter space which are not probed by the collider experiments.
