et al. ; We present the final combination of CDF and D0 measurements of cross sections for single-top-quark production in proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The data correspond to total integrated luminosities of up to 9.7 fb−1 per experiment. The t-channel cross section is measured to be σt=2.25+0.29−0.31 pb. We also present the combinations of the two-dimensional measurements of the s- vs t-channel cross section. In addition, we give the combination of the s+t channel cross section measurement resulting in σs+t=3.30+0.52−0.40 pb, without assuming the standard model value for the ratio σs/σt. The resulting value of the magnitude of the top-to-bottom quark coupling is |Vtb|=1.02+0.06−0.05, corresponding to |Vtb|>0.92 at the 95% C.L. ; We acknowledge support from the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation (U.S.A.), the Australian Research Council (Australia), the National Council for the Development of Science and Technology and the Carlos Chagas Filho Foundation for the Support of Research in the State of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (Canada), the China Academy of Sciences, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the National Science Council of the Republic of China (China), the Administrative Department of Science, Technology and Innovation (Colombia), the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (Czech Republic), the Academy of Finland, the Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission and the National Center for Scientific Research/National Institute of Nuclear and Particle Physics (France), the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (Federal Ministry of Education and Research) and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation) (Germany), the Department of Atomic Energy and Department of Science and Technology (India), the Science Foundation Ireland (Ireland), the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (Italy), the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (Japan), the Korean World Class University Program and the National Research Foundation of Korea (Korea), the National Council of Science and Technology (Mexico), the Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (Netherlands), the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, the National Research Center "Kurchatov Institute" of the Russian Federation, and the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (Russia), the Slovak R&D Agency (Slovakia), the Ministry of Science and Innovation, and the Consolider-Ingenio 2010 Program (Spain), the Swedish Research Council (Sweden), the Swiss National Science Foundation (Switzerland), the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine (Ukraine), the Science and Technology Facilities Council and the The Royal Society (United Kingdom), the A.

Throughout this internship, I, Abhi Pasupula, have worked with my internship mentor, Barry Federici, in order to help him start up a new service. This service is targeted specifically towards veterans and their paths in their lives after they retire from the military. The service is split up into two categories, those being Jobs and Veteran Benefits. Jobs entailed creating and implement a job board into our website for retired veterans to search for. Veteran benefits showcase a list of benefits that veterans are eligible for, divided up by Federal Benefits, State Benefits, Local Benefits, and a page for all available benefits. For the Job Board page on the website, we got into contact with a job board service known as Hiring Opps and spent many days working through the features and seeing which features would serve us the best for the website. In addition, we set up a Sandbox so that we could physically see the service in action. The benefits required more menial work, such as compiling the list of total benefits and categorizing them into states with links that lead to the state Veteran Benefits commission for more information. Once organized, the benefits were organized into 4 sections, each section having its own page on the website. Both of these websites were connected back to the original website, which served as a homepage for all the services. The homepage also had services to meet with my mentor, Mr. Federici. Working on both of these websites and services really opened my eyes to the professional world of Software Development, where there was so much more apart from just programming. Similar to this internship, the real world will require me to be able to voice my thoughts as well as put them down on paper and be able to explain them well to others, something that I believe this internship set me up for very well. ; https://digitalcommons.imsa.edu/intern_reports_2021/1004/thumbnail.jpg

Despite the climate crisis, traffic congestion, and income inequality, America still heavily relies on the automobile to travel, even as other countries across the world use widespread and complex mass transit systems. Americans must reconsider how they travel. This begs the question of what methods are successfully employed by institutions in the United States to get automobile drivers to substitute their trips ("mode shift") with other modes of mass transit. To shed light on this complicated issue, I conduct a case comparison of the light rail systems in the Dallas and Houston metro areas, assessing their successes and shortcomings. I build upon two main theoretical approaches: the effects of socio-demographics and past experiences on travel behavior, as well as research on policy formation and outputs. My study reaffirms links between dense development and increased ridership and also identifies the importance of linking different transit modes and targeting service. The effects of government and non-government organizations on ridership were mixed, as different groups in both types of organizations could both imped and facilitate light rail development and use.

Despite the fact that Elite College's student body hails from a variety of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds, numerous students at Elite College have complained of a lack of political diversity on campus. In this project I examine whether the formal and informal administrative and faculty practices at Elite College effectively promote political discussion in which students can form, question, and/or change their political beliefs. I used a detailed interview guide to further understand students at Elite College familial background and their experiences at Elite College. Given the time constraints, I was not able to make any overarching findings regarding Elite College. However, I was able to categorize the interview data into three critical section which effectively set the stage for further research. Upon interviewing 12 students at Elite College I identified the 1) Transition Period from high school to college (independence, clashing of socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, becoming informed), 2) the Environmental Factors that exist at Elite College (Semi-open discussion, classroom and office hours, discussion with peers) and Political Bashing (Making fun of or dismissing opposing viewpoints) that takes place in the classroom and around campus as the most salient. In this paper, I will further enumerate and contextualize these preliminary findings as they pertain to the broader literature regarding the way students form, question, and/or change their political beliefs on small liberal arts campuses.

Durante el evento se realizó la conferencia "El cambio climático, escenarios y sus efectos en la Región Trifinio", a cargo del Dr. Raúl Maas, de la Universidad Rafael Landívar de Guatemala, quien enfatizó la necesidad de fortalecer las acciones de adaptación al cambio climático en la región. Asimismo, se llevaron a cabo diversas mesas de diálogo en las que se destacaron los siguientes puntos: La formulación de políticas de adaptación al cambio climático en la región; El fortalecimiento de los espacios de articulación interinstitucional en ámbitos y/o espacios globales y temáticos; y, El desarrollo de estrategias para la gestión sostenible de los recursos hídricos y para el impulso de la agricultura sostenible adaptada al clima. Sobre esta base, las conclusiones y los acuerdos que surgieron se orientan al diseño y desarrollo de acciones claves para la adaptación al cambio climático en la región El foro se realizó en el marco de la Iniciativa "Tierra y Territorios en la Estrategia Centroamericana de desarrollo Rural Territorial (ECADERT)" y la Iniciativa "Plataforma Semiáridos América Latina" que impulsa la ILC ALC. La Fundación Nacional para el Desarrollo (FUNDE), miembro de la ILC en El Salvador, es el punto focal de la iniciativa que aborda la ECADERT y forma parte del grupo impulsor de la Plataforma Semiáridos América Latina.

Defenders of male circumcision increasingly argue that female 'circumcision' (cutting of the clitoral hood or labia) should be legally allowed in Western liberal democracies even when non-consensual. In his target article, Richard Shweder (2022) gives perhaps the most persuasive articulation of this argument to have so far appeared in the literature. In my own work, I argue that no person should be subjected to medically unnecessary genital cutting of any kind without their own informed consent, regardless of the sex characteristics with which they were born or the religious or cultural background of their parents. Professor Shweder and I agree that Western law and policy on child genital cutting is currently beset with cultural, religious and sex-based double standards. We disagree about what should be done about this. In this commentary, I argue that 'legalising' childhood FGC so as to bring it into line with current treatment of childhood MGC is not an acceptable solution to these problems. Instead, all medically unnecessary genital cutting of non-consenting persons should be opposed on moral and legal grounds and discouraged by all appropriate means.
