Fatf Recommendation And Charitable Organizations Supervision Policy In Indonesia: A Study On The Prevention Of Terrorism Financing, Fithriadi Muslim, Eva Achjani Zulfa

Indonesian Journal of International Law

This research aims to analyze the supervision policies of charitable organisations in Indonesia, particularly in the context of preventing terrorism financing, and comparing them to international provisions, such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). It also explores the oversight practices in other countries to identify the best practices that Indonesia can adopt. The research addresses two key questions: (1) How do Indonesia’s supervision policies for charitable organisations prevent terrorism financing? (2) How do Indonesia’s supervision practices compare with international standards in preventing terrorism financing? This study uses a normative juridical approach, focusing on legislative and comparative methods. Primary legal …

Between Utterance And Action: The Shaping Of Social Accountability In India’S Coastal Commons, Nayana Udayashankar, Aarthi Sridhar

Journal of Law and Public Policy

Judicial orders, management plans, and zonation maps prepared in relation to environmental laws encode the jurisprudence on accountability. Laws such as India’s Coastal Regulation Zone Notification (CRZ Notification) 2019 serve as sources of discourse on use and access rights. Such laws are crucial in shaping developmental decisions and democratic practice along the coast. As an environmental law that contains detailed articulation on judicially mandated planning, mapping, and public access to regulatory information, the CRZ Notification 2019 offers a good case to understand the relation between legal discourse and citizens’ agency. Citizens of the state of Tamil Nadu representing its small-scale …

From Mapping To Mitigation: New Geologic Mapping And Emergency Slope Failure Response Along Sr 56 In Madison, Indiana, Victoria Leffel, Joey Franzino

Civil Engineering Professional Development Seminar

This presentation will highlight recent geologic mapping efforts done by the Indiana Geological and Water Survey, including detailed bedrock mapping at a finer scale than previously available and updated landslide inventory mapping focused on southeastern Indiana. The second part of the presentation will cover the emergency response to a significant slope failure that occurred along SR 56 in Madison following heavy rainfall in March and April 2025. The reactivation of a known landslide led to a major road failure, creating a public safety hazard and forcing the closure of this heavily traveled route. Due to the critical nature of the …

Lessons From Tiktok: Using Popular Social Media Platforms To Engage Gen Z, Debra Bernstein

Urban Library Journal

This study looks at how academic libraries in the New York City metropolitan area are using TikTok to engage with their communities, particularly students. It analyzes the most popular videos from five active library accounts, categorizing content types and measuring engagement through TikTok’s built-in metrics. Results indicate that humorous and lighthearted content consistently receives the highest engagement, while instructional or “how-to” videos tend to underperform. These findings suggest that while TikTok may not be the most effective platform for instructional outreach, it holds potential as a tool for visibility, community engagement, and humanizing the library’s presence. As students increasingly turn …

Robust Metric Aggregation For Foundation Models, Jingtao Wang

Defensive Publications Series

Evaluating foundation models using a single aggregated metric, such as a weighted sum, presents significant limitations. These methods can mask catastrophic regressions in individual capabilities, establish arbitrary trade-offs between metrics, and fail to distinguish true improvements, where all members of a set have increases ≥0 (Pareto improvements), from changes where some metrics decline. This disclosure details a method for robust metric aggregation. The technique computes a composite score using a more Pareto-sensitive function (harmonic mean, geometric mean, etc.) as a base aggregator, which inherently penalizes low sub-metric values. A trade-off penalty is calculated based on negative deltas from a baseline, …

Weather Shocks And Sectoral Labour Reallocation: Evidence From The European Regions, Federico Zilia, Paolo Nota, Alessandro Olper

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

This paper examines how weather variability influences inter-sectoral labour reallocation and sectoral value-added (GVA) growth across 238 European regional units (NUTS2 level) from 1980 to 2022. Leveraging this large and granular dataset, we employ flexible functional forms within a fixed-effects panel framework, where the impact of weather shocks is conditional on long-term climate. Unlike previous empirical research in climate economics, which primarily focused on inter-annual variations in average temperature, this study emphasizes the significant role of daily temperature variability. Temperature variability is particularly critical in warmer regions with low seasonal variability, which are more vulnerable to sudden temperature shifts or …

On Some Algebraic And Dynamical Aspects Of Families Of Polynomials, Prabhakar Ratipal Yadav

Doctoral Theses

This thesis investigates several arithmetic and algebraic properties of polynomials, with a particular emphasis on irreducibility, monogenity, and the behaviour of iterated polynomial sequences. We first study truncated binomial polynomials over the rationals and establish new affirmative results concerning their irreducibility. A substantial part of the work develops a detailed analysis of Newton polygons under polynomial composition. These structural insights yield broad applications, including criteria for stability and eventual stability of large families of polynomials, as well as precise information about the degrees and number of irreducible factors appearing in their iterates. These ideas further connect to questions about ramification …

Attitudes Of African American Police Officers Towards Violent Police Encounters In An Urban Environment, Larry Ernest Jackson Jr

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

The research problem for this study is why confrontations between urban police and citizens are becoming increasingly violent. The purpose of this study was to examine the continued rise of violent police encounters between urban police and urban citizens. To provide a proper perspective on this phenomenon, the core research question was how African American officers born and raised in urban environments who have since become police officers in those same settings feel about the violence between these two groups. The theoretical framework used to understand the relationship between the two groups was the social learning theory. As part of …

Mu-Glioma Post: A Comprehensive Dataset Of Automated Mr Multi-Sequence Segmentation And Clinical Features, Esmat Mahmoud, Jaime Gass, Yaseen Dhemesh, Josh Greaser, Karolina Pogorzelski, Edvin Isufi, Filip Garrett, Jonathan Thacker, Nourel Hoda Tahon, Jason Sinclair, Lester Layfield, Talissa Altes, Ayman Nada

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Gliomas represent a heterogenous group of primary brain tumors with overlapping imaging phenotypes. Treatment typically includes surgery and/or chemoradiation, however this varies based on the overall lesion and clinical presentation. This heterogeneity in both lesion characteristics and management strategies contributes to a lack of reliable findings when evaluating treatment outcomes with conventional MRI. The overlapping imaging features of radiation necrosis and tumor progression post-treatment can be particularly challenging for radiologists. We present a dataset of 203 glioma patients with 594 post-treatment timepoints of relevant clinical history and routine T1, T1 postcontrast, T2, and FLAIR weighted MR sequences. Preprocessing of the …

Evaluating Policy And Industry-Based Interventions For Healthier Online Food-Away-From-Home Choices: A Scoping Review, Vincenzina Caputo, Jiayu Sun, Ellen J. Van Loo

Department of Agricultural Economics Faculty Publications

The rapid digital transformation of the food-away-from-home (FAFH) sector has redefined how consumers access and select meals. Digital delivery platforms such as Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and Meituan have become influential market intermediaries, shaping the nutritional landscape of food environments and raising concerns about their healthfulness. This study reviews empirical evidence on policy-based and industry-led interventions aimed at improving dietary outcomes in digital FAFH environments. Following PRISMA guidelines and using machine-learning–assisted screening (ASReview), 37 peer-reviewed studies were identified across four domains: nutritional labeling, fiscal measures, food-assistance programs, and digital nudges or decision-support tools. Findings indicate that although traditional food-policy instruments designed …

Measuring Human Ability To Detect Emotional Energies In Transpersonal Fields Of Consciousness, Carol Richardson Phd, Mdiv, Mph

Journal of Conscious Evolution

This research presents original data from an online research survey with 111 respondents regarding their ability to detect emotional energies in transpersonal fields of consciousness in crowds and dyads. The data show that a majority of respondents, from 90% to 96.4%, reported experiencing different emotions “in the air,” such as excitement, tension, anxiety, anger, and love. Personal data responses include age, gender or gender identity, and worldview. Examples of possible worldviews include: “scientific, not religious, not spiritual”; “spiritual and scientific”; “religious”; and “religious and scientific.” Respondents were given two free-answer essay options: one in which they could describe their personal …

Mortality And Immortality: Reconsidering Anglo-American Perspectives In Light Of Kierkegaard, Heidegger, And Jonas, Mehrzad Ali Moin

Dissertations (1934 -)

This dissertation addresses fundamental questions surrounding mortality and does so existentially. Of central concern is what it means to be mortal, the value of mortality, how we ought to relate to it, whether immortality is preferable to mortality, and what moral obligations can be derived from our mortality. By engaging thinkers such as Heidegger, Kierkegaard, Jonas, Epicurus, and contemporary anglophone philosophers, this project seeks to challenge prevailing attitudes towards death. Through a meta-philosophical lens, I argue for the value of mortality as a shaper of the meaningfulness of existence, and for the cultivation of what I call ‘genuine mortality consciousness’ …

Why Securities Law, Rather Than Real Property Law, Should Govern Real Estate-Backed Cryptos, John M. Beaman

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

Currently, it is unclear which area of law applies to real estate- backed cryptocurrencies: real property law or securities law. Depending on which area of law applies, various effects will follow that impact the crypto industry, including property tax administration, virtual real estate rights, digital rights, and regulation. Until legislators or regulators, or possibly both, decide otherwise, it is most advantageous to apply securities law, because regulatory frameworks and infrastructure exist. Surprisingly, very little research has been conducted in this area, especially relating to regulation administration. This paper calls for further research into the specific industry of real estate-backed cryptos …

More Blockchain More Privacy Problems: Privacy Rights & The Mosaic Theory In The Age Of Blockchain Technology, Carson Lloyd

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

Can the law tackle the legal challenges posed by disruptive technologies, or is the law constantly struggling to keep up with rapid innovation, forcing it into a reactive position? This question lies at the heart of the complex relationship between law and technology. As emerging technologies advance at an unprecedented rate, legal systems often struggle to address the challenges they pose. There is no better example of this in practice than the emergence of blockchain technology, one of the most disruptive innovations of the 21st Century. Blockchain technology refers to a decentralized and encrypted digital ledger enabling secure real-time transactions …

The Discord Dilemma: Section 230'S Free Pass For Internet Providers Sanctioning Online Extremism, Claira L. Cooper

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

This Article examines the relationship between the blanket immunity for internet providers guaranteed by Section 230 of the Communication Decency Act and the rise of online extremism on gaming adjacent platforms. This Article analyzes multiple recent events incited by extremists on the gaming platform, Discord, and the real-life consequences that arise when extremism is allowed run rampant on platforms. This Article argues that Section 230, in its current form, enables platforms to turn a blind eye to illegal conduct on their website by avoiding moderation, thus making it clear that Section 230 is in dire need of an update to …

The Underrepresentation Of African American Officers In A Large Midwestern Correctional System, Julius Oben Eyong

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

The correctional population in the United States remains high despite the implementation of various measures to reduce crime and recidivism. The primary goal of correctional establishments is to reduce recidivism and crime through effective rehabilitation programs. The role of the correctional officer is crucial in the rehabilitation process because they are the heartbeat of a prison. However, low staffing levels have a negative impact on the role of corrections officers. There is a gap in the relevant literature on the low staffing levels of African American correctional officers. This qualitative research, through the phenomenological approach, focused on the correctional culture …

Romances: A Performer's Guide To Tchaikovsky's Art Songs Through His Queer Sexuality, Nathaniel Reed Himes Mcbride

Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive

This dissertation explores the art songs of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky through the lens of his queer sexuality by offering performers interpretive strategies that focus on themes of desire, repression, identity, intimacy, and longing. By placing these songs within both their 19th-century cultural context and contemporary queer discourse, the project shows how Tchaikovsky’s musical choices could be interpreted as code of his emotionality and experiences as a queer person. Through historical context, letters, and analyses of selected songs, performers can draw upon layered meanings in choices of phrasing, acting, and staging. Ultimately, this performer’s guide seeks to highlight Tchaikovsky’s arts songs …
