Intergovernmental equalization grants: some fundamental principles

What can be done to create an effective system for managing adult and juvenile sex offenders? Employ a deliberate, strategic model. The Comprehensive Approach to Sex Offender Management is an integrated framework for managing and reducing recidivism risk strategically and collaboratively. Policymakers and practitioners are striving to advance this model at the state and local levels in communities throughout the country. Investigation,

The goal of the contemporary physics enterprise is to explain a broad range of phenomena using only a very small number of powerful fundamental principles. Although instructors and textbook authors may see the enterprise this way, this is not the view typically acquired by students in the calculus

The bioassays officially adopted in U. S. P. XI., and N. F. VI. for endocrine prod-ucts are recorded in Table I. Compilations of

This paper presents several theorems concerning the nature of deception and the central role that deception plays in function optimization using genetic algorithms. A simple proof is offered which shows that the only problems which pose challenging optimization tasks are problems that involve some degree of deception and which result in conflicting k-arm bandit competitions between hyperplanes. The concept of a deceptive attractor is introduced and shown to be more general than the deceptive optimum found in the deceptive functions that have been constructed to date. Also introduced are the concepts of fully deceptive problems as well as less strict consistently deceptive problems. A proof is given showing that deceptive attractors must have a complementary bit pattern to that found in the binary representation of the global optimum if a function is to be either fully deceptive or consistently deceptive. Some empirical results are presented which demonstrate different methods of dealing with deception and poor linkage during genetic search.

and fluid mechanics. For this reason, the study of any convective heat transfer problem must rest on a solid understanding of basic heat transfer and fluid mechanics principles. The objective in this chapter is to review these principles in order to establish a common language to debate the more specific

Guyana has ratified all eight core ILO labour Conventions. In view of restrictions on the trade union rights of workers, and continuous problems with discrimination and child labour, determined measures are needed to comply with the commitments Guyana accepted at Singapore, Geneva and Doha in the WTO Ministerial Declarations over 1996-2001, and in the ILO Declaration on

ABSTRACT. The purpose of this paper is to provide a proof for a Fundamental Principle for convolution equations µ ∗ f = 0, with µ ∈ E ′(Ω) and f ∈ D′(Ω), where Ω ⊆ Rn is a convex open set and E ′(Ω), D′(Ω) are the corresponding distribution spaces.
