In molecular biology, Human accelerated region 1 (highly accelerated region 1, HAR1) is a segment of the human genome found on the long arm of chromosome 20.

Many of the HARs are associated with genes known to play a role in neurodevelopment.

Southern Resilience

What Is Resilience?

Flexibility to make changes.

Against the backdrop of rapid globalization, the individual risks and costs of moving internationally will continue to fall.

I could feel the wind against my face and the beat of my racing heart as if it were happening in that very moment.

Underinvesting in Resilience

Specific modulus is a materials property consisting of the elastic modulus per mass density of a material.

I call it sort of shotgun flexibility.

The rapid ageing of the population in the region, in particular the ageing of the older population, would increase expenditure on public health.

Seeking to enhance Islamic performance in the Child sector so as to adapt frameworks and mechanisms to face the ever accelerating changes and transformations and their repercussions on that sector

A second lesson is the importance of flexibility.

But flexibility is not a synonym for pure floating.

We appreciate the flexibility shown by all parties.

Secondly, peacebuilding requires flexibility.

The accelerated pace of the effort, which involved massive requisitioning of grain and cattle, led to widespread starvation across Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.

Her delegation appreciated the flexibility shown by the delegation of Japan.

But accelerated reconstruction in a post Bonn framework will also require accelerated confidence building and an intensification of the ties and exchanges among neighbours.

For starters, making a system very resilient in one way can cause it to lose resilience in other ways.

Building and maintaining resilience requires probing its boundaries.

Its flexibility had not, however, been reciprocated.

Systems and procedures are designed for flexibility, rapid response and functionality.

Adaptive governance (flexible, distributive, and learning based).

But resilience itself is neither good nor bad.

Resilience should not be confused with resistance to change.

Canada has shown this in its approaches.

We believe that that proposal shows a much more flexible approach.

The international financial institutions should show some operational flexibility.

There is evidence that HAR1 is repressed by REST in individuals with Huntington's disease, perhaps contributing to the neurodegeneration associated with the disease.

In Italy, greater employment flexibility was introduced by the Prodi government in 1997, and further strengthened under the so called Biagi Law of 2003.

We need to look carefully at our zero tolerance policies.

In a few weeks, this flexibility will be used up.

Yet, in the end, credibility collapsed because of the lack of flexibility.

The difference between the two valuations is the value of flexibility inherent in the project.

I fail to see how discussions on improving security in space, or discussions on dealing with the subject of nuclear disarmament, could threaten anyone's security interests.

Two possible explanations have emerged from the rapidly growing scientific literature on the subject selective upward social mobility and delayed diffusion of behavioral change.

These regional bodies also have a special and complex dimension in this era of rapidly accelerating globalisation, requiring innovative strategies to meet the target of full decolonization by the end of this decade.

A grand coalition could show greater flexibility in addressing the euro crisis, but less on questions of foreign and security policy.

Europe is considered a region in recognition of the new situation created by the enlargement of the European Union, but its average scores hide the rapidly reducing but still significant differences that exist between Eastern and Western Europe.

None of this detracts from the resilience factor.

This is not something that it possesses in abundance.

But it also includes physical resilience and the ability to withstand shocks.

Three things explain this remarkable resilience ideas, politics, and institutions.

So, is resilience a useful concept or just a fleeting buzzword?
