Teaching Replication
Authors: Frank Michael C. , Saxe Rebecca
Published: July 2018

Replication is held as the gold standard for ensuring the reliability of published scientific literature. But conducting direct replications is expensive, time-consuming, and unrewarded under current publication practices. So who will do them? Our answer is that students in laboratory classes should replicate recent findings as part of their training in experimental methods. In our own courses, we have found that replicating cutting-edge results is exciting and fun, it gives students the opportunity to make real scientific contributions (provided supervision is appropriate), and it provides object lessons about the scientific process, the importance of reporting standards, and the value of openness.
Degenshein_Strategies of Valuation
Authors: Degenshein Anya
Published: July 2018

This article draws upon thirteen months of ethnographic research in a Chicagopawnshop to show how prices of objects in pawnshops are actively, socially negotiatedusing what I term discursive strategies of valuation. Three kinds of discursive strategiesof valuation emerge repeatedly in the data: a. references to the specific material attributesof the objects, b. references to the unique biographical histories of the objects, c. reference to the financial need and (relative) social positioning of the customer involved in the negotiation. Examining these strategies reveals the relationship between socially contingent and culturally constructed perceptions of value and the production of price. I find that rhetorical strategies can and do affect price, within limits. Perhaps most surprisingly, the data show that discursive strategies emphasizing a lower socio-economic status can inflate the value, and ultimately the price, of an object during negotiations.

Datacenter Traffic Control: Understanding Techniques and Trade-offs
Authors: Noormohammadpour Max , Raghavendra Cauligi S.
Published: July 2018

Datacenters provide cost-effective and flexible access to scalable compute and storage resources necessary for today’s cloud computing needs. A typical datacenter is made up of thousands of servers connected with a large network and usually managed by one operator. To provide quality access to the variety of applications and services hosted on datacenters and maximize performance, it deems necessary to use datacenter networks effectively and efficiently. Datacenter traffic is often a mix of several classes with different priorities and requirements. This includes user-generated interactive traffic, traffic with deadlines, and long-running traffic. To this end, custom transport protocols and traffic management techniques have been developed to improve datacenter network performance. In this tutorial paper, we review the general architecture of datacenter networks, various topologies proposed for them, their traffic properties, general traffic control challenges in datacenters and general traffic control objectives. The purpose of this paper is to bring out the important characteristics of traffic control in datacenters and not to survey all existing solutions (as it is virtually impossible due to massive body of existing research). We hope to provide readers with a wide range of options and factors while considering a variety of traffic control mechanisms. We discuss various characteristics of datacenter traffic control, including management schemes, transmission control, traffic shaping, prioritization, load balancing, multipathing, and traffic scheduling. Next, we point to several open challenges as well as new and interesting networking paradigms. At the end of this paper, we briefly review inter-datacenter networks that connect geographically dispersed datacenters, which have been receiving increasing attention recently and pose interesting and novel research problems. To measure the performance of datacenter networks, different performance metrics have been used, such as flow completion times, deadline miss rate, throughput, and fairness. Depending on the application and user requirements, some metrics may need more attention. While investigating different traffic control techniques, we point out the tradeoffs involved in terms of costs, complexity, and performance. We find that a combination of different traffic control techniques may be necessary at particular entities and layers in the network to improve the variety of performance metrics. We also find that despite significant research efforts, there are still open problems that demand further attention from the research community.
Coffin-Lowry preprint 2018
Authors: Moretti Paolo
Published: July 2018

Coffin-Lowry syndrome is an X-linked disease caused by pathogenic variants in RPS6KA3. The disease generally causes severe neurologic and non-neurologic abnormalities in males, and more variable phenotypes in females, including psychiatric manifestations. The majority of cases occur in the absence of known family history of the disease, and women carrying a de novo pathogenic variant may be undiagnosed due to the absence of severe disease manifestations or typically affected first-degree relatives. We describe the clinical features of a woman of normal intellect carrying a novel RPS6KA3 pathogenic variant in whom psychiatric manifestations and encephalopathy responded to immunosuppressive treatment.

Direct means straight to the point. Direct method or straight to the point method is the way in presenting Arabic where the teacher directly uses the language ( Arabic) as the language in giving instruction , without using students’ mother tongue . If there is a word is difficult to understand by the students, teachers can interpret that word by using props, demonstrating, describing and etc. This method is based on the understanding that teaching foreign language subject is not the same as teaching the science subject. If in the Learning science, the students are required to memorize certain formulas, think and remember, in language teaching, students or pupil are trained to practice directly spelling certain words or sentences. It is same when we consider a mother in teaching language to her childrens, she practices the language by herself directly , lead her child to pronounce the word by -word, sentence by-sentence, and her children will repeat what she spell in funny way. In principle, Direct method is really important in teaching Arabic, because through this method students can practice their speaking skills directly without using their mother tongue (the language of their scope). Although in the first time it seems difficult for students to duplicate it, but this method finally so interesting for them .

The N400's 3 As: Association, Automaticity, Attenuation (and Some Semantics Too)
Authors: Buchanan Erin Michelle , Scofield John E. , Nunley Nathan
Published: July 2018

The N400 waveform carries new insight into the nature of linguistic processing and may shed light into the automaticity of priming word relationships. We investigated semantic and associative word pairs in classic lexical decision and letter search tasks to examine their differences in cognitive processing. Normed database information was used to create orthogonal semantic and associative word relationships to clearly define N400 waveforms and priming for these pairs. Participants showed N400 reduction for related word pairs, both semantic and associative, in comparison to unrelated word pairs for the lexical decision task, indicating automatic access for both types of relatedness. For a letter search task, the N400 showed differences between nonwords and other stimuli but no attenuation for related pairs. Response latency data indicated associative priming in both tasks with semantic priming also found in the letter search task. These results help discern possible automatic and controlled processes occurring during these tasks, as the N400 may show automatic processing during the lexical decision task, while the response latency data may provide evidence for controlled processing during the letter search task.

To exhibit or be exhibited: the visual art of Vetkat Regopstaan Boesman Kruiper
Authors: Mboti Nyasha
Published: July 2018

This article examines the visual art of the late San ‘Bushman’ artist Vetkat Regopstaan Kruiper. The significance of Kruiper’s artistic work is explored in order to call into question two problematic assumptions: first, that visual art amongst the San ended with rock art, turning the ‘Bushman’ artist into a vanished specimen, and, second, that what is found amongst the San today is not, strictly speaking, art. Anchoring these assumptions is the pigeonholing of ‘Bushmen’ as objects to be gazed at. Taking its theoretical departure from Lee and Hitchcock’s call for an ‘expanded anthropology’, the article views Vetkat’s art as both an act of authoring citizenship and belonging in contemporary South Africa, and as a form of exhibition-resisting exhibition.
Working at Pleasure in Young Women’s Alcohol Consumption: A Participatory Visual Ethnography
Authors: Bancroft Angus , Zimpfer Mariah Jade , Murray Órla Meadhbh , Karels Martina
Published: July 2018

The ‘student experience’ is commodified in UK higher education. It meshes with the commodified intoxication culture around alcohol that has been promoted in the UK by central and local government. Central to this culture is a concept of pleasure as purposeful, unrestrained sociability. It invokes gendered norms of interaction that drinkers both engage with and distance themselves from. Focusing mainly on women, this paper examines that culture critically through the habits, performances, rituals and experiences recounted by student drinkers. For the research, student researcher-participants used smartphones to collect video data about aspects of their intoxication experiences. Pleasure was present but not always dominant in their accounts of leisure focused drinking. They experienced the predominant, neo-liberal concept of pleasure as one mode, which could be engaged alongside others that emphasised a situated, intimate, sociability. Pre-drinking occasions were especially significant as places where bonds could be built up, and the body self-prepared to enter the public night- time economy. For many, preparation became the main, enjoyable event in contrast to the sometimes fraught and demanding public drinking spaces, where women could find themselves subject to various critical judgements about their femininity. Their activities on these occasions focused on achieving a ‘good drunk’, a manageable state of group intoxication. We use these findings to comment on the gendering of the night-time economy and the narrow framing of ‘pleasure’ in public and academic discourses around it.
Saudi EFL Students' Attitudes towards Communicating in English while Immersed in Virtual Platforms
Authors: Journal Arab World English , Alqahtani Shafi S.
Published: July 2018

This study provides findings about Saudi English as a foreign language (EFL)students' attitudes towards communicating in English via one of the most widely used virtual platforms in Saudi Arabia; the massively multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPGs) that can offer English as the medium of communication. According to official statistics (The Saudi Economic Newspaper; Alaiqtisadiah), almost every Saudi family owns an average of one set of PlayStation or X-Box and nearly 3 million sets are bought every year in the Saudi market. Therefore, this study generally aimed at investigating the motives, positive and negative effects of MMORPGs as well as the level of satisfaction with the immersion experiment from the perspective of Saudi EFL students at King Saud University-College of Languages & Translation (KSU-COLT). The study attempts to answer two questions. First, what are the COLT-KSU students' motives to immerse in MMORPGs as well as the positive and negative effects of being immersed in these virtual platforms? Second, what are the satisfaction levels of COLT-KSU students with MMORPGs after immersion? The findings these of the interviews showed various factors that drive the Saudi EFL Colt-KSU students to immerse in the MMORPGs. The finding also revealed varied opinions and attitudes of the participants; their views combine positive, and at the same time, negative effects about their immersion experiences in these platforms. However, the degree of their overall satisfaction with MMORPGs as a tool to learn EFL was high throughout the four weeks of the immersion experience.

Complex systems of knowledge integration: A pragmatic proposal for coordinating and enhancing inter/transdisciplinarity
Authors: Melo Ana Teixeira , Caves Leo Simon Dominic
Published: July 2018

Humanity’s biggest challenges call for organised collective action, informed by the most complex forms of thinking. Different forms of knowledge and practices of knowing operate at different levels of organisation within society. Scientific knowledge is one form of knowing, but the development of science under a culture of disciplinisation and increasing specialisation has led to its fragmentation and blinded it to the possibilities offered by the integration of knowledge. Interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity are privileged routes for rich knowledge construction and integration. There is a pressing need for efforts directed toward the intentional construction of a culture where interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary practices may flourish. However, we believe significant change will only occur through the orchestration of a set of activities that attend to the complexity of knowledge construction and integration as emergent outcomes of a complex network of processes and relations that constitute an evolving inter and transdisciplinary ecosystem. In this paper we present a thought experiment in the form of a proposal for the organisation of an Alliance for Knowledge Integration and of Inter/Transdisciplinary Hubs aimed at coordinating collaborative actions and contributions from a diversity of agents and systems from different levels of organisation of society towards richer and more integrated practices of knowing.
Genetic code: Chemical Distinctions of Protein Amino Acids
Authors: Rakočević Miloje M.
Published: July 2018

In the work it is shown that 20 protein amino acids ("the canonical amino acids" within the genetic code) appear to be a whole and very symmetrical system, in many ways, all based on strict chemical distinctions from the aspect of their similarity, complexity, stereochemical and diversity types. By this, all distinctions are accompanied by specific arithmetical and algebraic regularities, including the existence of amino acid ordinal numbers from 1 to 20. The classification of amino acids into two decades (1-10 and 11-20) appears to be in a strict correspondence with the atom number balances. From the presented "ideal" and "intelligent" structures and arrangements follow the conclusions that the genetic code was complete even in prebiotic conditions (as a set of 20 canonical amino acids and the set of 2+2 pyrimidine / purine canonical bases, respectively); and the notion "evolution" of the genetic code can only mean the degree of freedom of standard genetic code, i.e. the possible exceptions and deviations from the standard genetic code. [This is the second version with minimal interventions in the text. In addition, one passage was added in front of the second star, with quoting of T. Jukes. Added is Remark 4 and a more adequate shading in the Table inside Box 2.]
The Misattributing Personality: The Relationship between Affect Misattribution, Need for Closure and Body Awareness
Authors: Ecker Yael , Bar-Anan Yoav
Published: July 2018

We hypothesized that aversion to ambiguous situations and overreliance on bodily cues are positively related to people’s tendency to make erroneous attributions of internal experiences. To test this prediction, we examined the relationship between misattribution and two personality traits: need for closure (NFC) and body awareness (BA). Across four studies (total Ns = 1394, 1498), misattribution was weakly but reliably related to NFC and BA. Further, we found that the extremity of one's reactions to affective stimuli was positively related to NFC and BA, and might partially explain the relation between the personality traits and misattribution. The results advance knowledge about misattribution and the personality traits related to it. The misattributing individual is characterized by unjustified reliance on bodily cues and fear of vague situations, which might account for a distorted understanding of the relationship between the environment and one's internal states.
Energy, causality and the living cell: the Schrödinger Machine concept
Authors: Powell Alexander
Published: July 2018

The ability to stave off, if only for a time, the seemingly inevitable eventual decay to thermodynamic equilibrium is one of the chief distinguishing characteristics of life. That it is achieved in large part through the exploitation of ambient thermal energy is generally under-appreciated, however. The ATP that powers the cell, meanwhile, is still often described as the bearer of high-energy bonds, when even if that were true it is in any case a quite different factor that underlies its motive capacity. This article aims to act as a corrective with respect to both of those points, whilst also providing a broad-brush perspective on causality in the living cell. It is proposed that the living cell may be regarded as the exemplification of a particularly distinctive kind of machine, here termed Schrödinger Machine.

Acquisition is a common strategy for expansion and diversification. Nonetheless most research on this topic focuses on selective geopolitical areas or on cross-cultural issues. This article investigates a cross-regional acquisition within China. It shows how the redevelopment of organizational strategies during the post-acquisition phase may affect various human resource management issues. It argues that the introduction of certain management techniques can only deal to some degree with differences in organizational cultures. It highlights the need for a careful examination of the extent changes in routine organizational practices are necessary and desirable as a part of an acquisition.

Face processing skills predict faithfulness of portraits drawn by novices
Authors: Devue Christel , Grimshaw Gina M.
Published: July 2018

Individuals show astonishing variability in their face recognition abilities, and the causes and consequences of this heterogeneity are unclear. Special expertise with faces, for example in portraitists, is associated with advantages on face processing tasks, especially those involving perceptual abilities. Do face processing skills improve through practice, or does drawing skill reflect pre-existing individual differences? If the latter, then the association between face processing skills and production of faithful portraits should also exist in people without practice in drawing. Two exploratory studies and one follow-up confirmatory study provide support for this hypothesis. Drawing ability of novices was predicted by their performance on face recognition tasks involving perceptual discrimination and visual short term memory, but not by those that rely more heavily on long term memory or memory for non-face objects. By examining non-experts, we show that expertise with faces might build upon pre-existing individual differences in face processing skills.
Physical Interpretation of Mind
Authors: Ananta
Published: July 2018

To draw a sharp line between mind and brain is very difficult task. Function of brain is more or less understood. But when it comes to mind, very less is studied and known. My approach in investigating the mind is based on the fact that if something exists then it must have its impact on the world we are living in, may be in some form of sign. My investigation is based on some questions which I think is related to mind. Why don’t we feel our weight? Why don’t we feel taste of food if the tongue is kept hold? When we are weak, say when we have fever, why does the dream become so vivid? Why images get distorted when gaze at it for extended time? I think brain is not related to these questions. Therefore there must be some agent in our body which can be related to these questions. In addition to these, the mental disorder like, some people have habit of moving the body or closing the eye tightly etc is also related to the mind. To investigate the mind I have taken some ideas from dream, meditation, reincarnation and near death experience.

Published: July 2018

Quality management system (QMS) provides generic guidance and requirements for establishing an appropriate quality management procedure, in order to lower cost, increase productivity, customer's satisfaction, and market share in the organizations since the last two-decade. In construction industry, it can assist the companies to achieve successfully their objectives, and ensure that all phases of construction project consistently meet client's requirements (need). The main aim of this article was to evaluate the impact of QMS implementation on main factors of construction projects in Metro Manila, Philippines. For this intention, the study was conducted an in-depth literature review fromdifferent books, journals, and websites, in order to understand profoundly quality management system, identify the characteristics of the vital factors of construction projects, and the findings of empirical studies concerning the effects of QMS on construction projects. Subsequently, a questionnaire was designed based on previous studies and then distributed randomly among the 37 managers with the aim of collecting data. Finally, the analysis of data was accomplished by descriptive statistics to find the results and conclusion. The findings have shown that the implementation of QMS can be affected mostly on customer's satisfaction, followed by cost, and time respectively, while minimum effectiveness of QMS was on scope (quality) through QMS implementation in construction projects in Metro Manila.

Antibiogram Typing and Biochemical Characterization of Klebsiella pneumoniae after Biofield Treatment
Authors: Trivedi Dahryn
Published: July 2018

Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) is a common nosocomial pathogen causing respiratory tract (pneumoniae) and blood stream infections. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates of K. pneumoniae infections are difficult to treat in patients in health care settings. Aim of the present study was to determine the impact of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield treatment on four MDR clinical lab isolates (LS) of K. pneumoniae (LS 2, LS 6, LS 7, and LS 14). Samples were divided into two groups i.e. control and biofield treated. Control and treated groups were analyzed for antimicrobial susceptibility pattern, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), biochemical study and biotype number using MicroScan Walk-Away® system. The analysis was done on day 10 after biofield treatment as compared with control group. Antimicrobial sensitivity assay showed that there was 46.42% alteration in sensitivity of tested antimicrobials in treated group of MDR K. pneumonia isolates. MIC results showed an alteration in 30% of tested antimicrobials out of thirty after biofield treatment in clinical isolates of K. pneumoniae. An increase in antimicrobial sensitivity and decrease in MIC value was reported (in LS 6) in case of piperacillin/tazobactam and piperacillin. Biochemical study showed a 15.15% change in biochemical reactions as compared to control. A significant change in biotype numbers were reported in all four clinical isolates of MDR K. pneumoniae after biofield treatment as compared to control group. On the basis of changed biotype number after biofield treatment, new organism was identified as Enterobacter aerogenes in LS 2 and LS 14. These results suggest that biofield treatment has a significant effect on altering the antimicrobial sensitivity, MIC values, biochemical reactions and biotype number of multidrug-resistant isolates of K. pneumoniae.

According to Islamic law, one of the obstacles to get inheritance is the religious difference between joint heirs and testator. The condition for the joint heirs of different religions felt unfair, so the problem is then brought to the realm of law. The Supreme Court Decision Number 368.K/AG/1995 provides a way for the joint heirs of different religions to obtain the inheritance through a wasiat wajibah. This study is a descriptive analysis that leads to normative legal research, with a research of legal approach. Data collection is obtained from secondary data by library study. The data obtained is then analyzed using qualitative analysis. Based on the results of the research according to the Supreme Court Decision Number 368.K/AG/1995, the concept of wills is not only for adopted children or adoptive parents, but also for non-Muslim heirs by giving Part or portion of the heirs of different religions based on the heirs of different religions based when he/she is Muslim. Analysis of the Decision of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia Number 368.K/AG/1995, about the provision of wasiat wajibah to the heirs of different religions is that the provision of wasiat wajibah to the heirs of non-Muslims actually is not in accordance with the rules of Islamic law.

Legislative bodies have very important roles and understanding the psychology of their decision-making processes is a useful area of study. We add to this area by replicating two previous studies Abe (2012) and Matsumoto, and Hwang (2013) in the context of a legislative body. The present study hypothesized that legislators who support war measures be externally focused and less cognitively complex in their speeches while opponents of war measures would be internally focused. Speeches were obtained pertaining to the decisions for the U.S. to take military action in Kosovo, Iraq, and Libya. While we found mixed results depending on the circumstances of a specific conflict, we demonstrate how automated language analysis can be combined with voting records to better understand behavioral action, such as legislative decision.
THE NEW STANDARD OF THE KILOGRAM
Authors: Mustafin Ramil
Published: July 2018

This paper proposes a new standard of the kilogram, the method of mass measurement. Measurements are carried on far from the Earth, which reduces the impact of the Earth gravitation. The mass is determined by the dynamic method (without measuring the force of attraction between the test bodies), using a laser interferometer.
Differential Approach and Capabilities: An Analysis for the Colombia's Population Displaced
Authors: León Dorian Fernando
Published: July 2018

The conceptual framework of the capability approach proposed by Amartya Sen has never been used specifically in the dynamics of forced displacement or in the analysis of the quality of life of the population victims of the Colombian armed conflict. Reason why, this article affirms that the approach of capabilities agrees with the differential approach proposed by the Colombian Constitutional Court. Consequently, the objective is to provide a conceptual aproximation to the Amartya Sen’s capability approach and differential approach proposed by the from Colombia Constitutional Court and to point out that the capability approach is relevant in the design, implementation and evaluation of public policies directed at the victim population. Similarly, recent data on the dynamics of forced displacement in the city of Bucaramanga (Colombia) are provided.

Bermula dari viralnya video Bachtiar Nasir tengah meminum air kencing unta viral di media sosial Facebook. Saat meminum urine tersebut, Bachtiar mencampurnya dengan susu unta. Menurutnya, air kencing unta berkhasiat membunuh sel-sel kanker. Sehingga penulis tertarik untuk membahas lebih lanjut menelaah baik dari sisi hadist maupun medis dari konsumsi urin unta.Timbulnya berbagai perbincangan terkait masalah khasiat dari urin unta yang digunakan sebagai pengobatan baik dari kalangan ulama akan hal mengkaji hadis-hadis seperti Bukhori juga lainnya, atau tenaga medis yang kemudian banyak melakukan riset-riset tentang manfaat antikanker dan mudarat penyebab MERS-CoV akibat konsumsi dari urin unta. Metode yang digunakan dalam penulisan makalah ini diambil dari beberapa pustaka berupa hadist-hadist, artikel, berita dan juga jurnal-jurnal penelitian yang didalamnya membahas manfaat maupun mudarat mengonsumsi urin unta sebagai pengobaatan.
A new species of small acritarch with a porous wall structure from the early Cambrian of Estonia and implications for the fossil record of eukaryotic picoplankton
Authors: Agić Heda
Published: July 2018

The Proterozoic–Phanerozoic transition recorded a general trend of decrease in phytoplankton cell size, in contrast to the earlier and much larger Ediacaran acritarchs. Particularly minute, unornamented but sculptured organic-walled microfossils have been recovered from the lower Cambrian Lükati Formation in northern Estonia. The lack of any significant thermal alteration in this formation allowed for excellent preservation of fine microstructures on these microfossils. Among the rich palynomorph assemblages in the Lükati Formation, a new species of tiny, spheroidal eukaryotic microfossil is recorded: Reticella corrugata gen. et sp. nov. It is characterised by a corrugated and flexible vesicle wall that is densely perforated by nano-scale pores. Despite its unique morphology, the new species shares diagnostic characters with fossil and extant prasinophyte algae. Reticella corrugata is among the smallest microfossils with typical eukaryotic morphology (conspicuous wall sculpture) and contributes to the diversity of the size class of small acritarchs. Size, abundance, inferred prasinophyte affinity and eukaryotic wall sculpture make this new taxon a likely member of the early eukaryotic picoplankton.
Seasonal Distribution of Nutrients and Primary Productivity on the Eastern Continental Shelf of Venezuela as Influenced by the Orinoco River
Authors: BONILLA JAIME , Senior William James
Published: July 2018

Nitrogenous nutrients, dissolved silicate, and salinity were measured in surface waters and shallowhydrocasts along similar cruise tracks during the spring (dry season) and fall (wet season) of 1988. Bothcruises transected the eastern Caribbean, transited the Gulf of Paria, ran parallel to the Orinoco Deltaand into the main channel of the Orinoco River. Trends in primary productivity were also measuredby daily carbon 14 incubations. In both seasons, samples covered the range from highly oligotrophicand transparent to highly productive and rich in biogenic and abiogenic particulate matter. Most of theOrinoco outflow appears to turn N to NW and remains in shallow waters off Venezuela andsurrounding Trinidad, permitting benthic regeneration of river-borne nutrients. However, the role ofthe Orinoco and associated low-salinity coastal waters in fertilizing large areas of the easternCaribbean basin, as suggested by satellite imagery, can be approximated crudely from the nutrientcomposition at Boca de Dragon, which is representative of the nutrient status of these waters as theyflow into deeper Caribbean waters. Additional nutrients may be supplied to the area primarily fromAmazon-derived water entering the Caribbean Basin further north, with some coastal upwelling alongthe continental shelf in the dry season.

The legal system in Malaysia State reflects the plural model which appears in English Malay Colony. Much of the area of life must be governed by a federal public body. The shariah Court in Malaysia known as the Shariah Court which is a judicial institution that speaks, and sentences to Muslims for civil and criminal misconduct according to the jurisdiction allocated to it. The Shariah Court has jurisdiction as stipulated by the Malaysian Constitution. While in Saudi Arabia Quran and Sunnah Rasulullah s.a.w is the Constitution of the State, and shariah as the basic law implemented by tribunals (courts) shariyah with ulama as Judges and counselors. The Saudi Arabia judiciary is formed based on Islamic shariah which is inseparable from the role of King Abdul Aziz bin Abdul Rahman as-Saud who plundered the territories
