Abstract:
O nascimento de gêmeos na espécie humana é rodeado por muitos mistérios e, há bastante tempo, desperta a curiosidade tanto leiga quanto científica. Os estudos com gêmeos vêm contribuindo para o entendimento de diversas áreas da biologia humana; porém, aspectos epidemiológicos e etiológicos relacionados aos nascimentos gemelares em si permanecem pouco elucidados. Para além de mera curiosidade, pesquisas nessa área podem ajudar a compreender mecanismos relacionados à reprodução em geral, além de serem importantes em um contexto de saúde pública, já que a gestação gemelar representa riscos adicio

Increasingly comprehensive, global communication networks allow discrete realities to be linked. These prolific sources of representation generate a "membrane" of mediation, and a formal regime of fragmentation, depthlessness and allusiveness (Chambers, 11). These economic, epistemological and aesthetic conditions constitute postmodernism.

Abstract:
The 2008 Global Financial Crisis (“GFC”), brought the global financial system to its knees. This Crisis, however, showed the world how critically important the maintenance of financial stability is. After the Crisis the pursuit of financial stability became a core goal of financial regulation. Various countries sought to reform their approach to financial regulation in order to ensure the stability of their financial systems. A regulatory model that emerged in the 1990s, the Twin Peaks model, conceptualized by Michael Taylor, gained favour with some countries. This model seeks to provide bo

Abstract:
The 2008 Global Financial Crisis was caused not so much by a failure in prudential regulation but rather by a failure in market conduct regulation. The light touch supervision of financial institutions allowed bad business conduct and greed to continue unabated until it resulted in spectacular financial collapse. The GFC thus highlighted to need for more intrusive, swift regulation of the role players in the financial system. It also highlighted the need for market conduct supervision to support prudential regulation and as such emphasized the role of financial consumer protection resulting in

Twin Peaks (ABC, 1990-1991), créée par le scénariste Mark Frost et le cinéaste David Lynch, est souvent considérée comme la matrice des séries états-uniennes contemporaines. Au sein des discours sur les séries télévisées, l’importance de Twin Peaks semble si évidente qu’elle peut souvent se passer de démonstration précise et argumentée : que ce soit dans la presse ou dans les travaux universitaires, la série n’est que très rarement inscrite dans une histoire des formes des séries, qui permettrait de saisir véritablement l’empreinte démesurée qu’on lui prête.

Magister Legum - LLM<br>The main objective of the study is to analyse the possibility of adopting the Twin Peaks model as a mechanism for ensuring protection to the consumers of financial services in Uganda. Uganda's financial sector has suffered impediments to growth and this can largely be attributed to the regulatory framework but also due to the absence in streamlined financial consumer protection. The Parliament of Uganda has failed to pass into law legislation required to protect consumers generally let alone financial consumers. The gaping hole created by lack of legislation puts consum

Each panelist has chosen an artifact (or type, genre, etc.) from the recent past and interrogated its role as an influence on contemporary popular culture, working to show the linkage between then and now. This type of work is underappreciated and we would like to attempt to show how informing ourselves on popular culture past can make us better critics in the present. Our hope is to inspire others to take up that cause as well. In that spirit, we would like to encourage people to come prepared to discuss ideas and share their own work in a workshop type environment.

This research reconsiders two ABC programs from the early 1990s, Twin Peaks and My So-Called Life, through the frames of queer-theory based textual analysis, press discourse, and fan reception. I begin by arguing that both programs, which emerged in concert with the solidification of queer studies as an academic field, exist as televisual oddities that provided a temporary space for the exploration of queer subjectivities in primetime; this analysis also invokes the non-normative positioning of showrunners David Lynch and Winnie Holzman based on their previous and subsequent work.

The debates on whether or not to regulate micro lending have shifted to finding the appropriate regulatory models. This is because countries are in agreement that being part of the greater financial services sector, micro lending plays an important role in the economic and social development of the citizens as it enables the poor to have access to credit and better their lives. To this end, Botswana has not fallen short of this global trend. Micro lending regulation plays an important role in maintaining the financial safety and soundness of any country’s financial sector.

The theoretical part consists of three chapters and the last two chapters are practical.
