The involvement and empowerment of communities affected by the September 28, 2018 Palu Earthquake in their home areas is an opportunity that can be taken to contribute to residential reconstruction. Currently, the rehabilitation and construction of housing requires a lot of materials that support earthquake-resistant buildings, one of which is construction materials for the walls of houses or dwellings that have light weights such as light bricks, which are mostly supplied from outside the Central Sulawesi area. For this purpose, this paper presents the results of the implementation of the Community Partnership Program (PKM) in disaster-affected communities by utilizing rice husks as light brick materials. Implementation of the program begins with socialization to prospective participants and continues with the work and testing of light brick samples, training to make lightweight bricks, monitoring and evaluation. The test results show that light brick made of a mixture of cement, husk and sand (Type II) with a volume ratio of 1:1.5:4.5 still meets the requirements as a house wall material and it is included in Quality Level III (SNI 03-0349-1989) for the use of unprotected non-structural walls, may be exposed to rain and heat with an average compressive strength of 35 kg/cm2. This type II brick is then recommended as a wall material, where this type provides a weight reduction of 54.85% from the weight of conventional bricks. A review of the results of program implementation shows that the affected communities represented by 50 respondents gave a fairly good perception of the acceptance of light bricks as wall material with a score of 3.70 of 5. Evaluation of the program showed that 80% of all respondents stated that they were skilled at making light bricks. and they will develop these material to support the reconstruction of housing in Palu

Xylanase A (Pf Xyn10A), in common with several other Pseudomonas fluorescens subsp. cellulosa polysaccharidases, consists of a Type II cellulose-binding domain (CBD), a catalytic domain (Pf Xyn10ACD) and an internal domain that exhibits homology to Type X CBDs. The Type X CBD of Pf Xyn10A, expressed as a discrete entity (CBDX) or fused to the catalytic domain (Pf Xyn10A′), bound to amorphous and bacterial microcrystalline cellulose with a Ka of 2.5×105 M-1. CBDX exhibited no affinity for soluble forms of cellulose or cello-oligosaccharides, suggesting that the domain interacts with multiple cellulose chains in the insoluble forms of the polysaccharide. Pf Xyn10A′ was 2-3 times more active against cellulose-hemicellulose complexes than Pf Xyn10ACD; however, Pf Xyn10A′ and Pf Xyn10ACD exhibited the same activity against soluble substrates. CBDX did not disrupt the structure of plant-cell-wall material or bacterial microcrystalline cellulose, and did not potentiate Pf Xyn10ACD when not covalently linked to the enzyme. There was no substantial difference in the affinity of full-length Pf Xyn10A and the enzyme's Type II CBD for cellulose. The activity of Pf Xyn10A against cellulose-hemicellulose complexes was similar to that of Pf Xyn10A′, and a derivative of Pf Xyn10A in which the Type II CBD is linked to the Pf Xyn10ACD via a serine-rich linker sequence [Bolam, Cireula, McQueen-Mason, Simpson, Williamson, Rixon, Boraston, Hazlewood and Gilbert (1998) Biochem J. 331, 775-781]. These data indicate that CBDX is functional in Pf Xyn10A and that no synergy, either in ligand binding or in the potentiation of catalysis, is evident between the Type II and X CBDs of the xylanase.

The Impact

The impact study assessment aims to evaluate policies and monitor the achievement of targets and the results of a development program such as DMP. The output obtained is information that is an evaluation of how the policy was planned, initiated, and implemented. Participatory monitoring and evaluation analyze the outcome and impact of the DMP Program. PPA seeks to answer the question of whether or not the policy or program is working properly. A participatory approach may improve the outcomes in the form of a new policy model for the future. The output of the PPA process from this study is the agricultural policy formulated in terms of practical ways of approaching poverty problems from a local perspective. The success of alternative policy options applied by local government such as physical, human resources, and institution development at the grassroots level should be adopted at the national level. It should represent the best example of a case of successful program implementation at the grassroots level which can then be used in formulating national policies and strategies.

Two morphotypes of Globigerinella siphonifera (Types I and II) can be clearly distinguished in their natural environment based on differences in symbiont distribution, which is dependent on the structure of the pseudopodial network. Laboratory experiments have demonstrated that the life cycle and ecological requirements of Types I and II differ considerably as well. However, qualitative observation of the empty shells reveals no significant differences between these two morphotypes. Therefore, a “fixed-axis” coiling model has been developed to simulate foraminiferal shell morphology with a computer. The model is based on the assumption that isometry is the primary rule implemented in planktonic foraminiferal development. Four parameters (rate of radius increase, number of chambers per whorl, translation rate, and relative distance from the center of any chamber to the coiling axis) and two scaling factors (initial chamber size and number of chambers) suffice to generate geometric models of the shells of these planispirally coiled organisms.Values for the four parameters extracted from digitized SEM microphotographs of dissected specimens of G. siphonifera demonstrate significant differences between the Types I and II. These are primarily due to a different rate of radius increase and a different number of chambers per whorl. Type I has a higher rate, which in combination with its lower number of chambers per whorl results in a more lobate test and a 22% smaller adult shell size than Type II. We suggest that the smaller surface area-to-volume ratio in the Type I population can be explained by increased respiration due to higher oxygen production during symbiotic photosynthesis; TEM has demonstrated that Type II contains twice as many symbionts than Type I and each symbiont contains a higher concentration of chloroplasts.The fixed axis model was also used to describe the ontogeny of G. siphonifera. The model shows that early chambers in log-spirally coiled structures must deviate from a strict isometric arrangement. To maintain exponential growth, the juvenile stage of Types I and II is more planispiral, more umbilicated, and contains more chambers per whorl than the adult stage. Future investigations will focus on the transformation of the shape parameters during later ontogenetic development and during cladogenesis.

Appropriate selection of construction materials is crucial for the success of any project. Poor choice of materials can lead to higher costs during construction, higher long-term operation and maintenance expenses, and endanger humans and their surrounding environment. Since the three pillars of sustainability cover the economic, social, and environmental aspects, adoption of sustainability principles in decision making will ensure selecting the optimum construction materials. This paper presents a generic model to utilize Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) principles to compare the sustainability criteria of four wall material alternatives using normalized fuzzy matrices. A case study took place in United Arab Emirates (UAE) to validate the model. Several semi-structured interviews and meetings with industry experts representing material suppliers, engineering consultants, and construction contractors took place during this research. These meetings provided six selection criteria under the three main sustainability categories, agreed-upon weight for each criteria, and evaluation of the four wall material alternatives. Results obtained from consulted experts presented Sandwich Panels as the most sustainable alternative for the case study. The developed model is generic and can be implemented on any construction project, and the alternative selection can change according to the decision-makers’ opinions and preferences.

AbstractThe motion of the magnetic flux quanta in the mixed state of a type-II superconductor, due to the Lorentz force of an electric transport current, represents the key mechanism for generating resistive losses. Whereas the most common result is Joule heating of the superconductor, also purely electronic non-equilibrium effects can play a dominant role in the case of effective cooling of the sample. The latter situation can be realized by means of very thin superconducting films (having a large surface/ volume ratio). In this paper we discuss experiments with Nd2−xCexCuOy (NCCO) films performed some time ago, yielding evidence for electronic non-equilibrium effects due to the energy dependence of the quasi-particle density of states in the mixed state of the films. The films were imbedded within super-fluid helium for cooling. The recent advances in the fabrication of epitaxial ultra-thin superconducting films promise to contribute to further clarification of these electronic non-equilibrium effects.

Background Inadequate nutrient intake, early and multiple pregnancies, poverty, caste discrimination, and gender inequality contribute to poor maternal nutrition in India. While malnutrition is seen throughout the life cycle, it is most acute during childhood, adolescence, pregnancy, and lactation. Although nutrition policies are on the books and interventions are in place, child malnutrition and maternal undernutrition persist as severe public health problems. Objective To evaluate the implementation of maternal nutrition programs in India. Methods The research was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 consisted of a desk review of national and state policies pertinent to maternal nutrition and national-level key informant interviews with respondents who have a working knowledge of relevant organizations and interventions. Phase 2 utilized in-depth interviews and focus group discussions at the state, district, and community levels in eight districts of two states: Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh. All data were analyzed thematically. Results India has a rich portfolio of programs and policies that address maternal health and nutrition; however, systematic weaknesses, logistical gaps, resource scarcity, and poor utilization continue to hamper progress. Conclusions Elevating the priority given to maternal nutrition in government health programs and implementing strategies to improve women's status will help to address many of the challenges facing India's nutrition programs. Programs can be strengthened by promoting integration of services, ensuring effective procurement mechanisms for micronutrient and food supplements, establishing regional training facilities for improved program implementation, and strengthening program monitoring and evaluation.

Abstract In Sahel countries in West Africa malaria remains a public health scourge. To strengthen the fight against malaria, weaknesses, and solutions must be identified before programs implementation. This study reports experiences gained from collaborations between decision-makers and researchers. This project was undertaken in the framework of the regional World Bank funded project titled: Malaria and Neglected Tropical Diseases in the Sahel (SM/NTD). The objectives of this World Bank program are to identifying bottlenecks in program implementation as well as the related research questions they enticed. National malaria control program managers and prioritization workshops were used as working method to identify research questions. These identified priority research questions were implemented in selected countries. The results of this study showed that priority issues were related to prevention, governance, drugs, monitoring, and evaluation of programs. The first five priority questions were related to (1) factors of compliance with drug doses for the second and third days during the seasonal chemoprevention (SMC) campaigns, (2) the contribution of community-based distributors to the management of severe cases of malaria in under 5 years-old children, (3) the SMC efficacy, (4) artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACTs) tolerance and efficacy according to existing guidelines, and (5) the quality of malaria control at all levels of the health system. In conclusion, this work showed the effectiveness of collaboration between implementers, programs managers, and researchers in identifying research questions. Furthermore, the results of this study will contribute to improve the implementation of malaria control programs across African countries.

The method of this research used qualitative description. The results of this research show that community participation in this program implementation has been running well. It is caused at the participation stages that is consisting of monitoring and evaluation stage, the maintenance stage, and utilization of the building has been running well. However, at the decision-making stage and the implementation stage must be improved. The successful of this program implementation is influenced by supporting factors and inhibiting factors. The supporting factor is commitment of head village, participation of non-governmental organization, commitment and support of interest groups. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors are less of supervisor participates in the manager finance unit. So there are two of nongovernmental organizations that delay to refunds and community participation that is not involved in the whole of each activity.
