<p><em>Jendi village, selected as a pilot project which received the Neighborhood Development program (ND) is the government's effort to solve the poor’s problemsbased onimprovementof housing’s quality. To achieve the goal, the building implementation should be based on the plan that has been made. So, it makes a question “is the implementation of Jendi Village based on Building and Environmental Planning and how the factors affect the suitability itself.”This research uses quantities research methods to analyze the factors that affect the implementation of RTBL Jendi Village. The suitability is found from the analysis which compare the plan and the implementation related with each aspect of planning. To know the factors that affect the implementation of RTBL Jendi Village, the analysis is done using the quantities methods from combination of implementable suitability and the suitable factors of implementation.  The research obtain that the implementable suitability with RTBL of Jendi Village has 81,25% with the suitability from streets, public open space, environment identity concept, the face of the streets, drainage. Factors that affect the implementable suitability with RTBL Jendi Village is communication, human resource, authority, infrastructures and facilities, money, attitude and commitment, bureaucracy structures, and support. And the other factor which not affected with suitability is information resource.</em></p><p><em><strong>Keywords</strong>: Factor that affect the implementable suitability, RTBL, Neighborhood Development</em></p>


Revitalization is a key challenge of modern city that requires an integrated approach. This is not only the preservation of monuments, the reconstruction of old houses or fragments of urban space, but a process, that is characterized by comprehensiveness and long duration, the main purpose of which is primarily economic recovery combined with measures to address social and environmental problems. The task of this process is to guarantee the development of cities. Revitalization means the release of degraded (or depressed) areas from the crisis through projects that integrate actions for the well-being of the local community, space and local economy, territorially concentrated and carried out in cooperation with the local community.The elaboration of the legislation in the field of regional policy allowed to state that at present there are no strategic documents that would cover the development of cities and include the revitalization program as a component that should become the main axis of the whole strategy. The glossary proposed in the study defines the main terms of revitalization and outlines the difference between the revitalization program and the regional development program and can be used in the territorial development strategies. The success of the revitalization program requires high-quality legal tools, consolidation at the legislative level, which will clearly define the conditions for the creation of such programs, as well as guarantee funding for the revitalization program in accordance with the development strategies of the city or region. The revitalization program as a key component of the territorial development strategy should contain a specific goal, outline the scale of its implementation, give a detailed description of the tools and financial support, as well as have broad public discussions and the involvement of all stakeholders in the implementation of the program. To increase the effectiveness of revitalization programs it is necessary to improve legal regulation; ensure consistency of revitalization processes not only with development strategies, but also with spatial policy; create a set of financial instruments to provide local governments with diversified financial resources; to guarantee legal and financial security of revitalization measures.

Diabetes mellitus is an increasing global health problem affecting millions of people worldwide, especially true in the Republic of Kiribati, with >20% of adults suffering from type 2 diabetes, and the prevalence is rising. Information on I-Kiribati patients’ understanding of diabetes and perception of access to relevant services is sparse. This study explores patient perspectives on their condition and its management using Talanga and Kakala Pacific research methodologies. Data were collected from Kiribati patients in 4 focus group interviews. Key themes to emerge were knowledge about diabetes, understanding and accessing the health care system, making lifestyle changes, and suggestions for improvement. Health system failures to meet the complex health care needs of these patients and health care services gaps are apparent. Improvements suggested include a comprehensive village-based health promotion and community development program focusing on youth and schools from early childhood and onward, increase in the skilled workforce, and an integrated approach to service delivery.

AbstractThe Waveney Field lies entirely within UK block 48/17c in the Southern Gas Basin, approximately 46 km north-east of the Norfolk coast line and to the west of the Mobil's Lancelot and Guinevere Fields. The water depth is approximately 75 ft. The field was discovered in 1996 by the 48/17c-12 well and brought on production in 1998 following a 14 month fast track development program and the drilling of two 2500 ft horizontal wells. The gas field is a low relief northwest trending asymmetrical anticline, with a length of 6 kms, and a maximum width of 2 kms. The crest of the structure is at approximately 7748 ft. TVDSS. The original reserves were 84 bcf. The reservoir predominantly comprises aeolian dune sandstones of the Upper Permian Rotliegend with an average reservoir quality range of 7-10% porosity and 0.1-200mD permeability. The hydrocarbons are sourced from down dip Carboniferous Westphalian Coals.

Micro-hydro technologies together with other renewable energy technologies are being disseminated in various parts of Nepal to provide basic energy services as per the demand of the individual household or a particular community. These technologies use an integrated approach that helps address rural energy needs by providing basic rural energy services. The planning and implementation of rural energy systems in an integrated manner through the ‘Pocket Area Approach’, which takes into account the entire geographical area for the intervention, has been experimented in some of the pockets area in the country and is found quite effective to cater to basic rural energy services to the entire population of the area. This paper illustrates the approach and results achieved by Rural Energy Development Program (REDP).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/hn.v9i0.7072 Hydro Nepal Vol.9 July 2011 44-47

Abstract. The aim of the study – to improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis. Matherials and methods of the study. The results of the treatment of 103 patients with acute pancreatitis who were treated in the surgical department of the Municipal non-commercial enterprise of the Kharkov regional council «Regional Clinical Hospital» 2015 to 2020 were analyzed. All patients were divided into two groups: the main (56 patients) and the comparison group (47 patients). In the main group, the tactics of the “step-up approach” were applied and the principles of the ERAS concept (2018-2020) were implemented. In the comparison group (2015-2017), the ERAS principles were not implemented and the open method was mainly used as the standard surgical treatment. Results of the study. Patients treated using the principles of “fast-track surgery” along with the “step-up approach” tactics, less likely to have postoperative complications and reduced the length of stay in the surgical department. Conclusions. This example confirms the appropriateness of applying the principles of “fast-track surgery” in everyday surgical practice in the complex treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis, as the results of surgical treatment of this category of patients are improved and financial costs for treatment are reduced.

A short review has been given of Serbian spatial and environmental planning, and in particular of relevant legislation. Attention has been paid to the landscape treatment within legislative grounds, and correspondingly in planning practice. Few assumptions have been made, upon the lack of methodological and integrated approach to the landscape protection and management. Strategic plans (spatial and town master plans), sectoral plans and policies (for soil, forestry etc) have been reviewed in attempt to verify the stated assumptions. The problems of landscape and open green space protection and maintenance have been brought up. In reference to the EU recommendations, legislation and instruments have been investigated regarding the entrenchment of the landscape concept and landscape planning into the spatial, environmental and related sectoral planning. Prior to the landscape concept implementation is the survey and establishment of regional landscape diversification so as to differentiate regional approaches to landscape planning.

Purpose – This article aims to suggest implementing an integrated approach – named intercultural engineering – at university level. Engineering today often takes place across cultures, locations and organizations. As a result, many companies have included cross-cultural training activities into their internal human resource development program. However, current practice neglects the engineering context and might enable sophisticated stereotyping. Design/methodology/approach – This article presents the case of a German bachelor study program in International Industrial Engineering and the theoretical foundations of its design. Findings – Engineering education needs to move beyond simplistic comparative cross-cultural management theory. It needs to acknowledge cultural complexity in engineering through an integrated development of competencies for utilizing the benefits of cultural diversity. Originality/value – The contribution of this article lies in providing a practical example of how to develop integrated competencies for cultural diversity in engineering, as based on latest theory.
