Effectiveness Fund Village Improvement in the Sea in the Village Development District Pineleng Minahasa
This research thesis preparation with a view to obtaining a bachelor's degree in social and political science faculty, that there are problems in the process and in the implementation of increased development funds through the village in the Village District of Pineleng Minahasa Sea. Researchers saw that the lack of cooperation between government and community development improvement. In stepping up development in the Village Sea through the village fund or assistance from the central government to village aspired to achieve a prosperous society and is able to manage the autonomy in the village in accordance with the laws that exist to growth and change in a planned and conscious taken by a country and nation toward modernity in order to develop the nation. But what happens the public still was not satisfied with the performance of the government's development, as seen from the problems that occur through the government's development is still lacking precise targets and a lack of consistency on the part of the government regarding village development forum that governments actually took the benchmark through deliberation village, which has been set in the deliberations when in fact it should be done instead of carrying out construction just see where that becomes personal or group interests to seek opportunities through the village fund for rural development and implicated in political elements
Beyond ‘Voice’ to ‘Learning with’: A Multiple Streams Policy Analysis and Qualitative Exploration Problematizing Representations of Young LGBT+ Identities
Hearing young voices is of paramount importance, particularly as some voices are seldom-heard, including those of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT+) youth. Recent research highlighting mental health disparities for these populations led to the formation of the Irish LGBTI+ National Youth Strategy, which prioritized youth participation through a Youth Advisory Group (YAG). A policy analysis of the initiation of the Strategy outlines the convergence of problems, policies and politics using a Multiple Streams Approach (MSA), with quantitative literature suggesting substantial vulnerabilities. This is enhanced through qualitative exploration of the views of six youth co-authors, with experiential expertise, and as YAG members. A university ethics committee granted approval for online recorded consultations via group, pair and individual interviews. The theme of ‘seen and heard’ highlighted unprompted discussions on discursive assumptions representing young LGBT+ identities almost solely in relation to mental health risk. These rich narratives problematize the (in)visibility and silence in representations of the diversity of LGBT+ youth identities, which may inadvertently reinforce stigma. This underscores the need for comprehensive and inclusive school curricula. While MSA may explain prioritization for policy initiation, participation potentially disrupts unintended negative consequences. This article concludes by emphasizing how ‘learning with’ LGBT+ young people can ensure research, policy and practice speaks directly to youth interests and concerns.University College DublinSPHeRE programm

From structure to crystallisation and pharmaceutical manufacturing: the CSD in CMAC Workflows
Two Workflows are presented that are relevant to the design and construction of end-to-end pharmaceutiucal manufacturing processes. The Workflows target the very early stage crystallisation aspect of these processes – production of the primary crystalline solid form – and relate to establishing decision-driven approaches for the screening for multi-component forms, specifically co-crystals, and to the use of additives to control crystal and primary particle form, notably morphology. These Workflows are shown to benefit from the use of the Million-plus structures in the Cambridge Structural Database and the associated structural informatics and analysis tools and are placed into the context of the work of the CMAC Future Manufacturing Hub
Dynamical models for sand ripples beneath surface waves
We introduce order parameter models for describing the dynamics of sand
ripple patterns under oscillatory flow. A crucial ingredient of these models is
the mass transport between adjacent ripples, which we obtain from detailed
numerical simulations for a range of ripple sizes. Using this mass transport
function, our models predict the existence of a stable band of wavenumbers
limited by secondary instabilities. Small ripples coarsen in our models and
this process leads to a sharply selected final wavenumber, in agreement with
experimental observations.Comment: 9 pages. Shortened version of previous submissio
Cryptic, sympatric diversity in Tegu lizards of the Tupinambis teguixin Group (Squamata, Sauria, Teiidae) and the description of three new species
Tegus of the genera Tupinambis and Salvator are the largest Neotropical lizards and the most exploited clade of Neotropical reptiles. For three decades more than 34 million tegu skins were in trade, about 1.02 million per year. The genus Tupinambis is distributed in South America east of the Andes, and currently contains four recognized species, three of which are found only in Brazil. However, the type species of the genus, T. teguixin, is known from Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guyana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela (including the Isla de Margarita). Here we present molecular and morphological evidence that this species is genetically divergent across its range and identify four distinct clades some of which are sympatric. The occurrence of cryptic sympatric species undoubtedly exacerbated the nomenclatural problems of the past. We discuss the species supported by molecular and morphological evidence and increase the number of species in the genus Tupinambis to seven. The four members of the T. teguixin group continue to be confused with Salvator merianae, despite having a distinctly different morphology and reproductive mode. All members of the genus Tupinambis are CITES Appendix II. Yet, they continue to be heavily exploited, under studied, and confused in the minds of the public, conservationists, and scientists

Carrier dynamics investigated by time resolved optical spectroscopy
We have investigated the transport of carriers in GaAs using time resolved optical spectroscopy with picosecond resolution. Carriers are optically created to the sample surface by an ultra-fast laser pulse. They diffuse and drift throught a thick GaAs layer, until they are captured by an InGaAs quantum well, where they recombine with holes from a p-type doped layer at an inner InGaP barrier. Our study was performed with a set of samples with different GaAs layer thickness. As the GaAs thickness increases, the emission from the quantum well is delayed and its decay slows down significantly. We have investigated the effect of an applied DC field between the surface and the InGaAs quantum well. The transient of the quantum well emission is mostly independent of the applied DC voltage up to field of the order of 20 KV/cm, including both polarities. This is a clear indication that the carrier transport is dominated by ambipolar diffusion due to the Coulomb interaction that strongly couples photoinjected electrons and holes. On the other hand, the decay of the GaAs emission varies signi-cantly when a DC gate voltage is applied such as a current appears at the structure.35335
