Can financial education and social support enhance the effectiveness of an adolescent HIV prevention program? Evidence from the Siyakha Nentsha program in KwaZulu-Natal
This document summarizes a study that evaluated the Siyakha Nentsha program, an adolescent HIV prevention program in South Africa that included financial education and social support components. The study found that adolescents living in poverty who lacked social connections were more vulnerable to HIV risk behaviors like early sexual debut. The purpose of the program was to improve adolescents' functional capabilities, well-being, and reduce risks of HIV, early pregnancy, and school dropout. The program provided evidence-based, multi-session lessons on HIV/RH/life skills and financial capabilities. Results showed the program increased knowledge of HIV, condom use, and empowerment, and reduced sexual risk behaviors and number of partners, especially among females.

Panel 5 - RESTORING JUSTICE IN OUR SCHOOLS: POSITIVE YOUTH DEVELOPMENT APPROACHES TO THE DISCIPLINE GAP
Youth of color are disproportionately suspended from school, causing youth to miss critical time of instruction, evoke feelings of hopelessness, and contributing to the “school to prison pipeline.” This panel considered what research and practice tell us about dismantling the pipeline and promoting positive developmental outcomes for youth of color with a focus on youth-centered principles of restorative justice.
Causes, Consequences and Remedies of Juvenile Delinquency in the Context of S...Premier Publishers
This research work was designed to examine nature of juvenile offences committed by juveniles, causes of juvenile delinquency, consequences of juvenile delinquency and remedies for juvenile delinquency in the context of Sub-Saharan Africa with specific reference to Eritrea. Left unchecked, juvenile delinquents on the streets engage in petty theft, take alcohol or drugs, rape women, rob people at night involve themselves in criminal gangs and threaten the public at night. To shed light on the problem of juvenile delinquency in the Sub-Saharan region data was collected through primary and secondary sources. A sample size of 70 juvenile delinquents was selected from among 112 juvenile delinquents in remand at the Asmara Juvenile Rehabilitation Center in the Eritrean capital. The study was carried out through coded self-administered questionnaires administered to a sample of 70 juvenile delinquents. The survey evidence indicates that the majority of the juvenile respondents come either from families constructed by unmarried couples or separated or divorced parents where largely the father is missing in the home or dead. The findings also indicate that children born out of wedlock, families led by single mothers, lack of fatherly role models, poor parental-child relationships and negative peer group influence as dominant causes of juvenile infractions. The implication is that broken and stressed families are highly likely to be the breeding grounds for juvenile delinquency. The survey evidence indicates that stealing, truancy or absenteeism from school, rowdy or unruly behavior at school, free-riding in public transportation, damaging the book of fellow students and beating other young persons are the most common forms of juvenile offenses. It is therefore, recommended that parents and guardians should exercise proper parental supervision and give adequate care to transmit positive societal values to children. In addition, the government, the police, prosecution and courts, non-government organizations, parents, teachers, religious leaders, education administrators and other stakeholders should develop a child justice system that strives to prevent children from entering deeper into the criminal justice process.

Segmentasi Citra Wajah Menggunakan Metode Level SetHadi Santoso
Pengolahan citra digital saat ini semakin mudah dilakukan dengan adanya segmentasi. Level set adalah metode untuk mendeteksi pergerakan kurva yang dapat digunakan untuk melakukan segmentasi citra. Pendekatan yang dilakukan dalam proses segmentasi ada 2 metode, yaitu metode berdasarkan tepi dan metode berdasarkan wilayah. Agar hasil dari kedua metode tersebut dapat maksimal, digunakan model active contour. Active contour merupakan proses pengubahan fungsi level set kedalam bentuk biner, kemudian untuk meregularisasinya digunakan filter gaussian. Pada makalah ini digunakan algoritma segmentasi selektif lokal atau global untuk proses binarization dan dijelaskan mengenai segmentasi menggunakan metode level set berbasis citra wajah manusia. Uji coba dilakukan pada citra wajah berwarna kemudian diubah kedalam citra wajah grayscale. Citra wajah yang digunakan pada proses segmentasi ini sebanyak 20 dari database citra wajah Caltech, dengan ukuran 200 x 150 piksel, aplikasi yang digunakan untuk mengolah data citra wajah yaitu MATLAB 2009a. Dari pengujian yang telah dilakukan, didapatkan hasil 18 citra wajah dapat dideteksi dengan baik dari 20 citra wajah atau unjuk kerja sistem sebesar 90%

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
