Will Workers Survive State Budget Belt-Tightening? [PDF]
As state governments face budget gaps of tens of billions of dollars in FY2009 and FY2010, this issue brief calculates the potential detrimental effects of state budget cuts on unemployment.

The Flypaper Effect: Evidence from the Italian National Health System [PDF]
Public expenditure reduction in Italy is achieved through a revision of social security and health care programmes. In particular, public health expenditure control has been implemented through a reform that imposes more stringent budget rules at local ...

Budget Woes Take Toll on Views of State Governments [PDF]
Examines trends in favorability ratings of federal, state, and local governments compared to April 2008. Highlights shifts in views of the federal government by political affiliation and links between views of state governments and state budget ...

Light‐Harvesting Photothermal Hotspots Enabled by NIR Scattering‐Absorption Coupling
By coupling the broadband scattering of nanodiamonds with the plasmonic absorption of gold nanostars, this work proposes a novel strategy for the active modulation of photon transport. This strategy creates localized photothermal hotspots in turbid media and achieves a supra‐additive heating efficiency, thereby providing a universal platform for low ...

Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...

The Timing of Elections in Federations : A Disciplining Device against Soft Budget Constraints ? [PDF]
We introduce political economics into the soft budget constraint problem by asking if the timing of elections has the potential to harden budget constraints.

Fabrication of High‐Density Multimodal Neural Probes Based on Heterogeneously Integrated CMOS
A chiplet‐based methodology democratizes active neural probe development on standard bulk CMOS services. This yields the first probe combining high‐density electrophysiology (416 electrodes) with calcium imaging (832 photodiodes) and complete on‐chip signal processing across 13 shanks.

POLITICS AND INTERJURISDICTIONAL TRANSFERS: THE ROMANIAN CASE [PDF]
this paper represents a continuation of a previous paper where we demonstrated the “abnormal” behavior that local authority from Romania is manifesting regarding the subventions received from the central budget. In accord with public choice theory, exist

Surface engineering of gate dielectrics with fluorinated self–assembled monolayers significantly improves the performance of organic field–effect transistors. In this study, Al2O3 functionalized with fluorinated phosphonic acids reduces contact resistance and hysteresis while achieving near‐zero threshold voltages, offering an alternative to ...
