KAJIAN YURIDIS PEMBIAYAAN IJARAH PERBANKAN SYARI’AH MENURUT HUKUM POSITIF
Authors: - Muhaimin , Sumiati Sumiati , Sutrisno Budi
Published: March 2019

Pengaturan usaha perbankan syariah di Indonesia mengalami perubahan yang pada awalnya hanya mengatur tentang usaha perbankan konvensional, kemudian berkembang juga untuk perbankan syariah sebagai bagian dari dual insurance system, namun dalam operasional perbankan syariah masih memiliki problematika terkait dengan pengaturan dalam pembiayaan ijarah. Hal ini berimplikasi terhadap legalitas akad pembiayaan ijarah di perbankan syari’ah menurut prespektif hukum positif. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis permasalahan hukum pengaturan akad pembiayaan ijarah di perbankan syariah menurut hukum positif. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian hukum normatif, dengan menggunakan bahan hukum primer, sekunder dan tersier tentang perbankan syari'ah yang dikumpulkan melalui studi dokumen dan kepustakaan, untuk kemudian dilakukan analisis secara deskriptif kualitatif untuk menghasilkan kesimpulan secara deduktif. Hasil Penelitian ini, Pertama, Permasalahan hukum pengaturan akad pembiayaan ijarah pada perbankan syariah menurut hukum positif adalah pengaturan akad pembiayaan ijarah belum diatur secara detail sehingga belum dipahami oleh pengelola dan nasabah perbankan syariah. Kedua, Model akad ijarah di perbankan syariah menurut prespektif hukum positif adalah model akad pembiayaan dan pelayanan jasa diantaranya akad pembiayaan sewa menyewa, sewa beli dengan opsi peralihan kepemilikan (ijarah muntahiyah bittamlik), dan akad pembiayaan multijasa, dan akad pelayanan jasa seperti jasa save deposit box. Rekomendasi penelitian ini; Pemerintah perlu segera menerbitkan peraturan pelaksanaan terhadap Undang-Undang Nomor 21 Tahun 2008 tentang Perbankan Syariah khususnya yang berkaitan dengan akad ijarah, dan Majelis Ulama dan para ahli Hukum Islam perlu segera menyusun panduan akad ijarah sebagai pedoman bagi perbankan syari’ah dalam operasionalnya.

A few Aspects of Speech Listening in Dialogic Situations at the Russian Language Lessons and in the Framework of the Final Interview
Authors: Maslova M. V.
Published: March 2019

The article attempts to avoid the unjustified transfer of the features of the oral exam in a foreign language to the final interview in the Russian language. The intentionally-thematic repertoire of dialogues was expanded. The correspondence between initial intentions and variants of reactive steps (moves, actions) in dialogical fragments was established. The dialogues contained in the audio supplement to the Russian language textbooks under the editorship of A.D.Shmelev were parameterized in terms of the theme and intention / response.
Writing from and for the Periphery
Authors: Anderson Lara
Published: March 2019

This article explores the notion of the periphery as it concerns Hispanic food studies. It argues that the periphery has a multiplicity of meanings in this context, and also that it is useful for various methodological and substantive reasons. These include the initial academic marginalisation of food studies itself, the slow acceptance of culinary texts as an object of academic study, as well as the ongoing drive to move food studies from the margins of Hispanic cultural studies. By reference to the Author’s own research on Spanish culinary nationalism, this article also shows how the tension between centre and periphery is key to understanding Spanish food discourses of the past few centuries. This discussion hopes to show that the academy is increasingly paying attention to peripheral cultures and objects of study.
Mentori – okosnica praktične poduke studenata bibliotekarstva Filozofskog fakulteta u Zagrebu
Authors: Mučnjak Dorja , Lisek Jadranka
Published: March 2019

Cilj. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se na uzorku studenata na studentskoj praksi i knjižničara/mentora utvrdi postoje li razlike među njihovim stavovima o važnosti stu- dentske prakse, kompetencijama koje studenti usvajaju na praksi te osobinama i kom- petencijama mentora.
Metodologija. U istraživanju su sudjelovale dvije skupine ispitanika: studenti 2. godine diplomskog studija bibliotekarstva na Odsjeku za informacijske i komunika- cijske znanosti pri Filozofskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu i knjižničari Knjižnice Filozofskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Korištena je kvalitativna metodologija po- lustrukturiranih dubinskih intervjua za studente i fokus-grupe za knjižničare.
Rezultati. Rezultati su pokazali da obje skupine ispitanika smatraju kako je student- ska praksa važna iz ovih razloga: praksa je mjesto upoznavanja studenata s knjižnicom i knjižničarskim poslom, ona je nadopuna studijskom programu te daje uvid u organi- zacijsku kulturu ustanove. Studenti prednost daju usvajanju generičkih kompetencija (osobito komunikacijske vještine) na praksi, dok knjižničari naglašavaju važnost usva- janja stručnih vještina. Obje skupine navode da su stručne kompetencije mentora važne, ali daju prednost njegovim vrlo razvijenim generičkim vještinama, osobito komunika- cijskim vještinama (interpersonalnim i intrapersonalnim vještinama).
Ograničenja. U istraživanju su sudjelovali samo knjižničari iz Knjižnice Filozof- skog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu pa se preporučuje provjera mogućnosti generaliza- cije istraživanja na uzorcima knjižničara/mentora iz drugih vrsta knjižnica.
Praktična primjena. Rezultati ovog istraživanja mogu biti temelj za osmišljavanje poučavanja knjižničara/mentora.
Originalnost. Ovo istraživanje prvo u Hrvatskoj na ovakav način istražuje važnost studentske prakse, kao i to koje kompetencije studenti na praksi usvajaju te koje kompe- tencije mentor mora imati da bi bio kvalitetan mentor.

Authors: Balog Antal
Published: March 2019

Cilj. Definirati i ukratko razmotriti osnovne aspekte upravljanja u knjižnicama kao poslovne funkcije, razine upravljanja u knjižničnom sustavu, odnos funkcije upravljanja s funkcijom rukovođenja te ulogu i doprinose stručnih tijela upravljanju, rukovođenju i poslovanju knjižnica.
Oblikovanje. U uvodnom se dijelu rada razmatraju temeljna obilježja knjižnica kao javnih ustanova i neprofitnih organizacija. U nastavku se analiziraju razlike između funkcije upravljanja i funkcije rukovođenja, kao i prikladnost uporabe termina menadžment. U dijelu koji opisuje različite vrste i razine upravljanja knjižnicama prikazan je proces usklađivanja upravljanja s pet ključnih aspekata rada knjižnica. Procesu upravljanja i usklađivanja različitih interesa ključnu potporu pružaju stručne sastavnice knjižničnog sustava.
Rezultati. Bolje razumijevanje procesa upravljanja u knjižnicama i njegovih posebnosti omogućuje njegovo razlikovanje od funkcije rukovođenja. Također, pojašnjavaju se odnosi između upravljačkih, rukovodnih i stručnih tijela te se razgraničavaju vrijednosti koje ta tijela pridonose oblikovanju i funkcioniranju nacionalnog knjižničnonformacijskog sustava.
Praktična primjena. Ovaj rad može pridonijeti povećanju kvalitete rada i stručnih kompetencija upravnih vijeća knjižica te boljem razumijevanju njihovih nadležnosti i značaja u poslovanju knjižnica te općem funkcioniranju nacionalnog knjižnično-informacijskog sustava.
Društveni značaj. Nakon  razmatranja  normativnih  dokumenata  te  sadržaja dostupnih u stručnoj literaturi, rad implicira unapređenje prakse upravljanja u knjižnicama imajući u vidu njihov društveni značaj kao ustanova od posebnog društvenog interesa.
Originalnost/vrijednost. Rad nastoji razmotriti i povezati pojedine sadržaje organizacijskog upravljanja i poslovanje knjižnica, a koji se nalaze u različitim znanstvenim granama, odnosno u grani organizacija i menadžment te u grani informacijski sustavi i informatologija. U tom smislu sadržaj rada ima interdisciplinarna obilježja.
Informacijsko opismenjavanje studenata medicine kroz izborne predmete
Authors: Markulin Helena , Petrak Jelka
Published: March 2019

Cilj. Cilj je ovoga rada prikazati mogućnosti visokoškolskih knjižnica u pripremi i izvedbi izbornih predmeta u nastavnim programima visokih učilišta.
Metoda. Prikazan je sadržaj i način izvođenja dvaju izbornih predmeta tematski vezanih uz podučavanje informacijske pismenosti studenata medicine koje je oblikovala Središnja medicinska knjižnica Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, kao i rezultati anketnoga ispitivanja studenata koji su pohađali jedan od opisanih kolegija.
Rezultati. Prepoznajući specifičnosti informacijskih potreba studenata medicine, Središnja medicinska knjižnica samostalno je oblikovala sadržaj i način izvođenja izbornih predmeta. Predmete su ocijenila i odobrila odgovarajuća tijela matične ustanove. U izvođenju kolegija, od kojih svaki traje 25 sati i pretežno se izvodi u obliku vježbi, sudjeluju knjižničari i nastavnici temeljnih i kliničkih predmeta. Nastavnike je odabrala i na suradnju pozvala Središnja medicinska knjižnica. Prema rezultatima anketnog ispitivanja velika većina studenata koji su pohađali nastavu jednog od izbornih predmeta Središnje medicinske knjižnice izrazila je zadovoljstvo programom izbornog predmeta i prezentacijom njegova sadržaja.
Praktična primjena. Izborni predmeti učinkovit su način na koji visokoškolske knjižnice mogu prenositi sadržaje koji podupiru informacijsku pismenost studenata i pripremaju ih za cjeloživotno učenje. Pritom je neophodna suradnja knjižnice s nastavnicima matične ustanove. Primjer opisan u radu može biti poticaj drugim hrvatskim visokoškolskim knjižnicama za sličan pristup informacijskom opismenjavanju studenata.
Edukacijske radionice korisnika o načinima korištenja informacijske i komunikacijske tehnologije (2012.–2018.)
Authors: Pejić Slaven
Published: March 2019

Cilj. Rad prikazuje edukacijske radionice o načinima korištenja informacijske i komunikacijske tehnologije organizirane za korisnike Narodne knjižnice „Petar Preradović“ Bjelovar svih dobnih skupina, održane u razdoblju od 2012. do 2018. godine. Također obrađuje problematiku uloge narodnih knjižnica u kontekstu edukacije korisnika i cjeloživotnog učenja, knjižničarske kompetencije za provođenje edukacija te informiranosti korisnika o programima koje knjižnica provodi.
Metodologija. Metodološki pristup temi ogleda se u istraživanju literature vezane uz edukacijske radionice i programe u narodnim knjižnicama, sintezi tog istraživanja, kritičkom promišljanju o temi te primjerima dobre prakse.
Rezultati. Uvidom u relevantnu stručnu i znanstvenu literaturu te kroz primjere dobre prakse provedenih radionica i vrednovanja njihove korisnosti iz perspektive sudionika uočeno je da narodne knjižnice mogu uspješno provoditi različite oblike neformalnog obrazovanja koji obuhvaćaju predavanja, radionice, tečajeve, okrugle stolove i sl. u suradnji sa širom lokalnom zajednicom, ustanovama i udrugama kako bi poboljšale informacijsku pismenost svojih korisnika, ali i utjecale na širi razvoj društva.
Vrijednost. Rad naglašava vrijednost neformalnog obrazovanja i cjeloživotnog učenja kako u teoriji tako i u praksi, odnosno stavlja naglasak na primjere dobre prakse koji bi trebali poslužiti kao uzor drugim knjižničarima, tj. kao smjernice za provođenje programa neformalnog obrazovanja u knjižnicama.
Obveze knjižnica prema Općoj uredbi o zaštiti podataka
Authors: Katulić Anita
Published: March 2019

Cilj. U radu se raspravlja o obvezama knjižnice kao voditelja obrade osobnih podataka prema Općoj uredbi o zaštiti podataka navedenim izravno u Uredbi ili onim koje se neizravno mogu izvesti poznavanjem zakonskih propisa kojima knjižnice podliježu. Cilj je rada na primjerima dobre prakse dviju europskih knjižnica usklađenih s novim propisima ukazati na moguće pristupe pri ispunjavanju pojedinih segmenata Uredbe, a poglavito na pristupe obradi osobnih podataka knjižničnih korisnika.
Pristup/metodologija/dizajn. Autorica navodi pravni okvir zaštite osobnih podataka u EU, pojašnjavajući načela obrade, obveze i metode dokazivanja ispunjenja tih obveza za knjižnice na temelju analize teksta Uredbe te na primjerima obrade osobnih podataka korisnika dostupnih na mrežnim stranicama dviju europskih knjižnica i njihovim različitim pristupima ispunjavanju obveza iz Uredbe. Pri analizi prakse dviju odabranih knjižnica komparativnom metodom i metodom analize teksta ukazuje se na moguća rješenja vezana uz interpretaciju Uredbe.
Rezultati. Uredba traži multidisciplinarni pristup osiguranju sukladnosti, što će uključivati upravu knjižnice, informatički odjel, pravnike i knjižničare, pa se može zaključiti da će najučinkovitiji pristup biti projektni pristup na razini ustanove. Takav pristup može uključivati prilagodbu putem donošenja internih politika postupanja s osobnim podacima i obrazovanja djelatnika, a davatelji usluge automatiziranog knjižničnog sustava imat će važnu ulogu u realizaciji anonimizacije i pseudonimizacije osobnih podataka.
Ograničenja. Analiza primjera ograničena je na jedan dio obveza knjižnica prema Uredbi. Primjeri prikazuju moguće pristupe ispunjavanju obveze o transparentnosti obrade osobnih podataka u knjižnici i pristupe prikupljanju osobnih podataka knjižničnih korisnika pri učlanjivanju u knjižnicu.
Praktična primjena. Rad donosi pregled obveza za knjižnice prema Uredbi analizom relevantnih članaka Uredbe i upućuje na smjernice iz područja zaštite osobnih podataka koje dodatno pojašnjavaju postupak prilagodbe knjižničnog poslovanja.
Originalnost/vrijednost. Budući da ne postoje smjernice za zaštitu osobnih podataka u knjižnicama na razini EU, značaj rada očituje se u osnaživanju aktivnosti prilagodbe knjižničnog poslovanja standardima Uredbe.

Exploring the Effects of Violating the 180-Degree Rule on Film Viewing Preferences
Authors: Kachkovski George , Vasilyev Daniil , Kuk Michael , Kingstone Alan , Street Chris
Published: March 2019

The 180-degree rule is thought to help smooth the change between film shots. When two individuals are speaking to each other, there is an imaginary axis of action running between them. If the camera crosses this axis, it breaks the 180-degree rule. A violation of the 180-degree rule is thought to have negative effects on viewers’ enjoyment of films. The present study investigated this idea. Experiment 1 established that naive participants can detect violations in videos. Experiment 2 tested the putative negative effects of 180-degree rule violations. The results indicated that violations can confuse and disorient viewers. Critically, as revealed by Experiment 3, violations did not alter the viewers’ liking of a video: Viewers were as likely to prefer a video with a 180-degree violation as one without. Collectively, these data shed light on fundamental beliefs regarding the 180-degree rule, which may help inform filming decisions around film enjoyment.

Published: March 2019

Research and experience over the last two decades has resulted in a deep understanding of issues relating to risk management and the principles of a well established risk faced by management. The company managers are increasingly recognizing the importance of risk management. In the context of risk management, the guidelines were implemented over the years, made only for conventional banks. Whereas players in the world and national banking business not only conventional banks, but has also been enlivened by banks with Islamic principles that number continues to increase from year to year. This paper gives an overview of how risk management in Islamic banking. In general, the risks faced by Islamic banking can be classified into two major parts. Ie the same risks faced by conventional banks and the risk that is unique because it must follow the principles of sharia. Credit risk, market risk, benchmark risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, and legal risk, Islamic banks must be faced. But, because they have to abide by the rules of Sharia, the risks faced by Islamic banks had to be different.

Published: March 2019

Few studies investigate temperament interactions and its association with education in young adolescents. Here we examine a sample of 1,540 adolescents (9-14 years of age, 733 females) from a community-based study in Brazil. Temperament was derived from adolescents’ reports to the Early Adolescence Temperament Questionnaire. Educational outcomes were measured by counting suspension, repetition and dropout events, parent reports on overall academic performance and by reading and writing standardized tests. We used mixed effects models to test associations of temperament dimensions with educational outcomes and tested interactions among effortful control and affective temperament dimensions. Models including temperament were adjusted for age, sex, socioeconomic status, intelligence and psychopathology. We found that high effortful control and fear were independently associated with better educational measurements, whereas high levels of frustration and surgency were independently associated with worse educational measurements. When all temperament dimensions were included at the same time, effortful control was the only significant predictor for educational outcomes. After multiple comparisons adjustment, effortful control and frustration interacts, such that low frustration and low effortful control were a detrimental combination for poor reading ability.
YanFarmerJaeger_EyeTrackingAdaptation
Authors: YAN SHAORONG , Farmer Thomas A. , Jaeger T. Florian
Published: March 2019

Implicit expectations play a crucial role during language processing. These expectations are often assumed to be static once acquired, or to change only at relatively slow time scales.Some theoretical proposals, however, hold that comprehenders continuously adapt their expectations based on recent input, and that this adaptation underlies phenomena such as syntactic priming. Existing evidence from research on sentence processing has confounded adaptation to the experimental task with evidence for expectation adaptation. Here we eliminate this confound by, for the first time, investigating expectation adaptation during natural reading. In two eye-tracking experiments, subjects read sentences that contain a higher than expected proportion of a previously unexpected structure (reduced relative clauses). We inspect whether and how syntactic adaptation manifests in the eye-movement measures: if subjects adapt their syntactic expectations, their reading times for unexpected syntactic structures should decrease over the course of the experiment. This prediction is confirmed in both experiments, providing evidence for expectation adaptation during naturalreading. Specifically, we find evidence for syntactic adaptation primarily for regression-related measures but not first pass reading measures. We discuss the different possible accounts of this pattern of syntactic adaptation in the eye-movement record.
The battle for reproducibility over storytelling
Authors: Chambers Chris
Published: March 2019

This issue of Cortex plays host to a lively debate about the reliability of cognitive neuroscience research. Across seven Discussion Forum pieces, scientists representing a range of backgrounds and career levels reflect on whether the “reproducibility crisis” – or “credibility revolution” (Vazire, 2018; Munafò et al., 2017) – that has achieved such prominence in psychology has extended into cognitive neuroscience. If so, they ask, what is the underlying cause and how can we solve it?
Does mindfulness meditation training enhance executive control? A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials in adults
Authors: Cásedas Luis , Vadillo Miguel A. , Lupiáñez Juan
Published: March 2019

[This is a pre-print of an article published in Mindfulness. The final authenticated version is available online at: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s12671-019-01279-4] Objectives: Over the last years, mindfulness meditation has been claimed to be effective in enhancing several cognitive domains, including executive control. However, these claims have been mostly based on findings pertaining to case-control and cross-sectional studies, which are by nature unable to reveal causal relationships. Aiming to address this issue, we set out to conduct the first quantitative assessment of the literature concerning mindfulness meditation as an enhancer for executive control considering only randomized controlled studies. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis covering experimental studies testing the effect of mindfulness meditation training on at least one executive control function (working memory, inhibitory control, or cognitive flexibility) in adult samples. Four databases were examined, resulting in the identification of 822 candidate references. After a systematic filtering process, a set of 16 studies was retained for evaluation, of which 13 could be included in a subsequent meta-analysis. Results: We found an average effect size of g = 0.34 [0.16, 0.51], indicating a small-to-medium effect of mindfulness meditation training in enhancing executive control. Effect sizes for individual functions were g = 0.42 [0.10, 0.74] for working memory, g = 0.42 [0.20, 0.63] for inhibitory control, and g = 0.09 [-0.13, 0.31] for cognitive flexibility. Funnel plot asymmetry analysis revealed no evidence of publication bias. Conclusions: Taken together, our findings provide preliminary and moderate yet positive evidence supporting the enhancing effects of mindfulness meditation on executive control. Shortcomings of included studies and considerations for future empirical and meta-analytical research are discussed.

This chapter provides an overview of social network data collection strategies. We begin by outlining the primary principles of sampling and measurement design, then describing how those combine into what is labeled as the “boundary specification problem” for social network research. We accompany these definitions with examples of how these elements are applied across ego-, partial- and complete- network designs. Next, the chapter turns to the primary ways that network data have been evaluated, highlighting both the implications of those evaluations for their use in network analyses, and various strategies for how the identified limitations can be leveraged for optimal data and analytic quality. The chapter concludes by addressing some of the ethical considerations that are unique to the gathering and analyses of social network data.

Tourism sector is one of the main economic sectors in many countries including Indonesia. Climate comfortability is one of key element that should be considered at tourist destination as climate condition can determine tourism activity. This research is proposed to analyze the comfortability level of Jatim Park 2 and Karangkates Park based on three comfortability indexes, namely: Tourism Climate Index (TCI), Holiday Climate Index (HCI) and Temperature Humidity Index (THI). The analysis is specifically emphasized to evaluate the sensitivity of each method. The results based on TCI and HCI showed that Jatim Park 2 is more comfort than Karangkates Park. Meanwhile, the THI showed that both parks can be classified into good climate comfortability. Seasonally, the HCI showed that comfortable climate condition in the study area occurs in dry season. The sensitivity test for HCI and TCI suggested that HCI is considered better to be applied in the tropical area which has relatively high rainfall and temperature. While, TCI is sensitive to the application of determined rainfall rating. Thus, the TCI should be carefully applied for a region which has relatively high rainfall and temperature, and the rainfall rating may need to be adjusted accordingly.

Rapid human population explosion in urban area has been causing some issues. The issues not only the decreasing open space area caused by high land demand for residential area, but also environmental pollution that is characterized by increasing air temperature caused by the increasing number of motor vehicles. Green open space in residential area is one of the potential solution to those issues. Metland Menteng is a residential area that has been provided by green open space in its area. The purposes of this study are to evaluate the trees ecological function in Metland Menteng’s green open space and to give recommendation to improve trees quality for the future. Trees evaluation has been done in some study areas, which are Valeria cluster, Teresta, Savana, urban forest, and the clusters main road. The aspects evaluated in this study are the trees ecological function as noise buffer, natural shading (temperature modifier), humidity controller, and windbreaker. Trees samples are analyzed and evaluated by comparing their characteristics in the study area and the criteria from the literature study using the parameter of key performance index (KPI). Result shows that each of the trees has different ability of its ecological function. The score of ecological functions on the very excellent and excellent categories are showed by the total percentage as follows: 65,64% for noise buffer, 74,9% for natural shading (temperature modifier), 44,21% for humidity controller, and 98,55% for windbreaker function.

City park as one type of the public green open space has an important role in improving the environmental quality. There are two important aspects that need to be evaluated within a city park which are its ecological function and aesthetic. In order to know how far the implementation of the ecological function and aesthetic is required, there need to be a thorough evaluation of these aspects. This study aims to identify the vegetation, evaluate the implementation of ecological function and aesthetic, and also to know user perceptions and preferences of the landscape in each park. This study takes time for seven months and located at four park in South Jakarta namely Ayodya Park, Martha Tiahahu Park, Tangkuban Perahu Park and Mataram Park. The method of this study is divided into two methods, the evaluation of ecological function and the evaluation of aesthetic quality in each park. Ecological function will be evaluated by comparing the existing condition with standard criteria for ecological function, while aesthetic quality will be evaluated by using of scenic beauty estimation (SBE) method as well as user preferences and perceptions. The result of evaluation on ecological function showed that Tangkuban Perahu Park has the best function of noise reductor and wind barrier, Ayodya Park has the best function of temperature control, while Martha Tiahahu Park has the best function of humidity control. Based on aesthetic aspect, Ayodya Park is as the highest quality of aesthetic, while Tangkuban Perahu was the lowest quality of aesthetic. Good ecological condition affect the aesthetics condition of the park.
Sensory morphology, investment and plasticity in the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)
Authors: Birrell Neil William
Published: March 2019

The importance of sensory traits, such as the development of the antennae and compound eyes, can be seen in the wide range of reproductive life history strategies employed by insects. Despite this, few studies have investigated the scaling relationships of sensory traits and body size which may give insight into the selective pressures driving this diversity. The commercially important species Hermetia illucens, or black soldier fly, was used to investigate the following: (1) the ultrastructural morphology of the antennae in H. illucens through the use of scanning electron microscopy; (2) the allometry of sensory traits and a dispersal trait (wing size) in the black soldier fly and a comparison of the allometries of the sexes and between two separate populations, (3) the effects of larval density on developmental phenotypic plasticity of sensory traits. I discovered a wide range of allometries that shed light on potential strategies utilised by the species to improve fitness. Some traits also showed sexual dimorphism and were explained by the unusual lek-like mating behaviour exhibited by adult males. Finally, I found that lower larval densities resulted in larger antennae suggesting that this species predicts future environmental conditions based on larval rearing conditions and adapt their adult morphology to maximise fitness.

The existance of green open space as climate amelioration is important in a city with high growth of population such as Tasikmalaya City. Population growth can decreasing environmental quality. The public green open spaces existence is important to give a comfortable recreation area but the three green open spaces, central recreation area of Tasikmalaya society, have not met optimal thermal and aesthetic comfort yet as society preference. The aims of this research is to identify species and function of vegetation, evaluate ecological and aesthetic functions of the green open spaces, and give vegetation improvement recommendations for the green open spaces. This research located in Alun-alun, Taman Kota, and Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha Tasikmalaya City. The research methods are inventory, analyse the inventory data by Key Performance Index (KPI); Thermal Humidity Index (THI); Scenic Beauty Estimation (SBE); descriptive, and give the vegetation improvement recommendation. The research result showed that Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha has the most species and quantity of vegetation. Kompleks Olahraga Wiradada is the best in modification, humidity control, and noise reducing function meanwhile Taman Kota is the best in wind barrier function than other green open spaces. The three green open spaces qualified as a thermal comfort zone based on standard THI and they also have meet the standard noise of recreation area. Overall they can decreasing the average temperature until 1.4 ˚C, increasing the average humidity until 8 %, and reducing the average noise until 4.4. Taman Kota has the best quality of landscape aesthetic and Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha has the worst quality of landscape aesthetic. Visitors satisfied enough with the green open spaces but those can be better with more shaded vegetation especially in Alun-alun and Taman Kota, more aesthetic vegetation, and better facilitation. Alun-alun and Taman Kota need more shaded vegetation. The three green open spaces need more variation in aesthetic vegetation, and a better landscape elements composition and layouting.

Inflammatory external  root resorption is one of the major complications after traumatic dental injury. It is characterized by the loss of mineralized dental tissue which may, ultimately, result in loss of the tooth.    However, with appropriate treatment, prognosis for these teeth may be greatly improved, by preventing or arresting resorption. This is a case report of an 18-year-old male patient presented with root canal treated maxillary central incisors associated with pain; with history of trauma. Radiographic examination revealed periradicular lesion and associated pathologic resorption of the apical region of the root with respect to 11 and calcification of the root canal with inadequate obturation with respect to 21. After removal of the root canal filling, 11 was disinfected with intracanal double antibiotic paste. After 2 weeks, antibiotic dressing was removed, and apical third was sealed with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Canal was obturated with custom-fit gutta-percha and accessory cones with AH plus sealer and restoration was done with composite resin. Retreatment was also done with respect to 21 and obturated with custom-fit gutta-percha. Both teeth were restored with E-max crown. No clinical symptoms were apparent, significant osseous healing of the periradicular region was observed with arrest of external root resorption with respect to 11 and no periapical changes were apparent with respect to 21 on subsequent  follow-up.
Political Ecology of the Chure Region in Nepal

Published: March 2019

Conservation of Chure landscape is at the limelight of public policy debate given its geo-ecological and socio-economic prominence and its real and perceived environmental degradation. The dominant narrative of the Chure environmental crisis coupled with increasing pressures of some political constituencies prompted government’s declaration of the Chure as Environmental Protected Area. This policy response of the state has engendered contestations and dissonance among different actors associated with the Chure. This paper is based on review of relevant literature, direct observation and participation in the national and regional policy dialogues and public debate. We identify two broad strands of contested actors: the ones who strongly favor the government policy decision and those who are opposing it. We argue that this can be attributed to the competing understandings of the problem and the proposed solutions to the Chure conservation. Actors’ understandings of the Chure are based on their own identical political strands and do not necessarily reflect the underlying causes at the ground. The politics of scientific facts and evidences is also critical to this contestation. We identified three major strands of management approaches in the Chure discourse: state centric, community based and state-community collaborative. Deliberative scrutiny of current policies and attention to the political ecology of conservation could help arrive at negotiated understanding of the problem and sustainable approach to the Chure management.

Published: March 2019

Avian influenza is currently a threat to global health. Prevention and control of Avian influenza depends on the knowledge and preventive practices of the poultry workers as well as general population. This article aims to assess the knowledge and preventive practices related to Avian influenza among poultry workers in Pokhara. Descriptive cross sectional study was conducted among 108 poultry workers in Pokhara using purposive sampling. Data was collected through face to face interview using structured interview schedule. The obtained data was analyzed by using descriptive (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation). The findings revealed that only 11.1 percent of the respondents had good knowledge. Only 26.9 percent gave correct answer about causative agent and three out of four gave correct definition of Avian influenza. Nearly two-third of the respondents had good practice of preventive measures. There was no significant relationship (r= 0.117, p= 0.226) between knowledge and practice score. The study concludes that the knowledge of Avian Influenza among poultry workers was low and the Practice was found relatively better. The groups should be targeted for appropriate intervention based on knowledge.
