This document discusses the integration of food markets in Mozambique and the opportunities and challenges presented. It defines market integration as producers being connected to consumers through price arbitrage. Integrating local markets into the wider economy is important for Mozambique's food security and ability to feed other parts of Southeast Africa using its agricultural potential in the north and center. The key factor in market integration is reducing transaction costs. The document discusses several econometric models that can be used to measure market integration based on price data and estimates of transaction costs. It also presents results of applying these models to maize price data from several Mozambican markets. Finally, it outlines some policy options that could increase market integration such as improving transport infrastructure, information systems

As user experience professionals, we are often expected to assume multiple roles when evaluating products and systems. UX professionals are asked to measure user performance, identify issues and provide recommendations to them. The most challenging aspect is not determining that performance is poor; it is identifying the source of the poor performance in order to provide a design solution.
Fortunately, many of the difficulties that users experience can be traced back to basic principles of cognitive science. Making design recommendations often requires that you understand the thought processes of users. In this panel discussion, three Cognitive Psychologists will demonstrate how fundamental principles of cognition can inform design solutions to many commonly occurring User Experience problems. We will review the latest advances in the measurement of user experience, including the measurement of implicit cognitive processes and how these affect user performance, and we will discuss how implicit assumptions by both users and designers often lead to user experience difficulties. The audience will learn key psychological principles that guide user experience and will have an opportunity to ask about the psychology behind common UX issues they encounter.

1) The study analyzes heat flux trends in the Arctic Ocean despite increasing temperatures, finding decreasing heat flux.
2) It analyzes streamflow and temperature data from 1929-2003 for major Siberian rivers flowing into the Arctic, finding a significant change point in the late 1950s corresponding to widespread dam construction.
3) Reservoir regulation decreases peak flows and temperatures, reducing annual heat flux into the Arctic by 10.7%, counteracting the expected increase from climate change.

1) Sunday became the primary day of worship for Christians because it was the day Jesus rose from the dead. The resurrection proved Jesus' deity and authenticated his teachings.
2) Acts 20:7 shows that the early church gathered for communion and preaching on Sundays. Sunday was also the day Christians brought offerings to the church.
3) Sunday commemorates deliverance from the law. Christians are saved by grace through faith, not works, so Sunday celebrates being freed from Sabbath requirements and obligations to the law. While private worship can occur daily, Sunday provides an appropriate day for public worship.
During the research and planning stages, the filmmakers used the internet to research conventions in perfume advertisements and analyze how to challenge conventions. They storyboarded their ideas and uploaded them to Macs to plan shot types, editing, and timing. During filming, they used a Panasonic handheld camera and tripod to capture different shot types. For editing, they used iMovie software which had some limitations and prevented certain effects. In the future, the filmmaker would use different editing software like Final Cut and do more thorough planning.
