Improvisation in Balinese Music: An Analytical Study of Three Different Types of Drumming in the Balinese Gamelan Gong Kebyar
Authors: Sudirana I Wayan
Published: January 2019

Gong kebyar muncul pada awal abad ke-20 dan pada mulanya merupakan genre instrumental. Dalam perkembangan selanjutnya, ensambel tersebut menjadi terbiasa dengan komposisi tari yang menyertainya, yang dihiasi dengan improvisasi tari yang berbeda sesuai dengan gaya khas gong kebyar. Ada tiga jenis drum Bali yang dianggap improvisasi, khususnya gaya-gaya yang dimainkan dalam repertoar gamelan gong kebyar. Gamelan gong kebyar adalah genre musik abad ke-20 yang paling populer dan berpengaruh yang dikembangkan di Bali. Dalam gamelan baru ini, fungsi drum (di Bali disebut kendang) dalam ensambel lebih penting daripada pada gaya lama dan dianggap sebagai pemimpin ensembel. Drumer adalah musisi yang terampil dan biasanya adalah guru, yang tahu semua bagian yang dimainkan oleh instrumen lain dalam ensembel. Krumpungan, Cedugan, dan Gupekan adalah contoh gaya drum yang memberikan ide improvisasi, meskipun di Bali tidak ada istilah khusus untuk improvisasi. Namun di sini ada ide yang sama dan rasa makna improvisasi itu sendiri dengan cara memainkan beberapa drum secara spontan dalam jalannya pertunjukan, dengan menggunakan kemampuan pemain drum untuk menciptakan pola spontan baru di panggung. Ada beberapa aspek penting yang perlu digarisbawahi dalam menciptakan pola-pola tersebut, seperti: iringan melodi, isyarat penari, kemitraan yang baik (dalam krumpungan dan cedugan), dan kemampuan untuk memimpin ensambel. Aspek-aspek tersebut memiliki peran penting dalam pencapaian improvisasi drum dalam pettunjukan. Improvisasi drum tetap sesuatu yang harus dipelajari lebih komprehensif di masa depan. Ini masih merupakan konsep abstrak bagi banyak musisi dan juga pecinta gamelan Bali.
Gamelan Soepra: Konsep dan Perilaku Musikal untuk Mencapai Tujuan Pendidikan
Authors: Aryanto Agustinus Sani
Published: January 2019

Soepra Gamelan is a set of gamelan adapted from Javanese Gamelan and has diatonic note like westen musical instruments. Soepra Gamelan is played with combo band and string section. Soepra Gamelan was created by a Jesuit from Netherlands Henricus Constant Van Deinse SJ in 1957. Soepra Gamelan has become a music subject in Loyola Senior High School Semarang since 2011. This research is to know the essence of Soepra Gamelan as a music learning means and to describe concept, musical behaviour, and the sound of Soepra Gamelan in Loyola Junior High School Semarang. Method in this research is qualitative using observation, interview, and literature study. This research is based on musicology approach. The approach is used to analyze instrumentalitation in Soepra Gamelan. The data is analyzed by using Musical Activity Theory by Alan P Merriam regarding the concept, musical behaviour, and the sound of Soepra Gamelan while Herbert Read theory is used to analyze the function of learning as a musical educational means in Loyola Senior High School Semarang. The result of this research is that Loyola Senior High School Semarang has a special method in introducing gamelan. Musical scale in Soepra Gamelan has an advantages and disadvantages (positive and negative impacts). Students can play many genre of songs in pentatonic and diatonic musical scale easily but, however, the characters of Javanese musical scale are disappeared. Through Soepra Gamelan, the students can recognize western and eastern culture from musical instrument and repertoire songs. Routine concert in performing the gamelan gives a real experience to the students in terms of process, preparation, and performance.
Semangat Perlawanan Musik Indie (Kasus Bali)
Authors: Kusuma I Dewa Gede
Published: January 2019

The experience of Serangan Island reclamation is a benchmark for the real failure of reclamation in the Southeast of Bali. The New Order (ORBA) situation during the time of President Soeharto was a separate Serangan Island with the cluster of Bali Island, and then there was a hoarding of coastal areas almost three times the initial area of Serangan Coast. Access to Attack can eventually blend without using a boat or boat. Indigenous peoples pasubayan in southern Bali, eager not to get hit by similar problems experience occurred in Serangan Island. Communities in south Bali are involved in resisting and resisting the reclamation plan through the practice of indie music peacefully, creatively, and without anarchism. This research is conducted by qualitative method in the context of critical culture study. The results show that environmental activists and indie musicians in Bali since 2012 are getting more agitated after the emergence of the issue of the Bay of Benoa reclamation plan. Indie musicians are slowly directing the ideology of their movement to reject the idea of government and developer investors to reclaim the Benoa Bay area of 838 Ha in Tanjung Benoa, Jimbaran, Badung regency, Bali. Indie music has a counter-interest in conveying the social message of the real conditions that occur in society. Indie music movements collaborate with activists and indigenous peoples in conveying resistance messages as an effort to protect Bali's natural environment in the future.

IMPLEMENTASI BPMN UNTUK MEMBANGUN MODEL BISNIS FORENSIKA DIGITAL
Authors: nopiansah nyata
Published: January 2019

ABSTRAKSModel bisnis adalah sebuah konseptual untuk mengambarkan aktifitas dan menangkap nilai yang ada. Salah satu metode yang dapat digunakan untuk membuat model bisnis adalah BPMN. Dalam BPMN terdapat Business Proces Diagram (BPD) yang berfungsi untuk pemodelan bisnis berdasarkan proses. Tantangan muncul ketika mencoba mengkaitkan antara BPMN dengan konsep yang berbeda, yaitu forensika digital. Sebuah proses dalam mengumpulkan data, melakukan pemeriksaan, menganalisis, hingga didapatkan bukti yang dapat dipertanggungjawabkan untuk menyelesaikan sebuah peristiwa. Melalui pendekatan penelitian desain dapat ditemukan penghubung antara BPMN dengan forensika digital, yaitu adanya interaksi yang terjadi selama sebuah proses berlangsung. Dengan memodelkan proses forensik digital menggunakan BPMN dengan sub-model orchestration dan collaboration ditemukan dua kondisi. Pertama, diketahui interaksi yang terjadi dari dan ke proses yang berlangsung. Kedua, dapat diketahui interaksi antara aktor dengan aktifitas yang dilakukan selama proses berlangsung. Sehingga BPMN ini dapat diterapkan untuk pengembangan framework investigasi forensika digital dengan berfokus pada interaksi dan proses.

POSISI BAHASA ARAB DI DUNIA ISLAM
Authors: Dhita Wiwin
Published: January 2019

Bahasa Arab adalah bahasa yang digunakan secara luas dimuka bumi. Bahasa Arab merupakan bahasa utam dari 22 negara dan merupakan bahasaperibadatan dalam Islam karena merupaka bahasa yang dipakai dalam AlQur’an. Jika dikatakan bahwa bahasa Arab adalah bahasa agama Islam, maka konsekuensinya adalah untuk memahami ilmu-ilmu agama Islam dipersyaratkan menguasai bahasa Arab. Sebab sumber ilmu-ilmu agama ditulis menggunakan bahasa Arab. Sehingga agama Islam dan bahasa Arab bagaikan dua sisi mata uang yang tidak bisa dipisahkan. Sementara itu, jika dikatakan bahwa bahasa Arab adalah bahasa asing, maka konsekuensinya adalah bahasa Arab diposisikan sebagai bahasa komunikasi yang bukan sebagai prasyarat untuk memahami ilmu-ilmu agama Islam.

Settling into Semantic Space: An Ambiguity-Focused Account of Word-Meaning Access
Authors: Rodd Jennifer M
Published: January 2019

Most words are ambiguous: individual wordforms (e.g., “run”) can map onto multiple different interpretations depending on their sentence context (e.g., “the athlete/politician/river runs”). Models of word-meaning access must therefore explain how listeners and readers are able to rapidly settle on a single, contextually appropriate meaning for each word that they encounter. This article presents a new account of word meaning that places semantic disambiguation at its core, and integrates evidence from a wide variety of experimental approaches to explain this key aspect of language comprehension. The model has three key characteristics. (i) Lexical-semantic knowledge is viewed as a high-dimensional space; familiar word meanings correspond to stable states within this lexical-semantic space. (ii) Multiple linguistic and paralinguistic cues can influence the settling process by which the system resolves on one of these familiar meanings. (iii) Learning mechanisms play a vital role in facilitating rapid word-meaning access by shaping and maintaining high quality lexical-semantic knowledge. Several key areas for future research are identified.
Social anxiety is associated with alterations in heart rate but not gaze in a real social interaction
Authors: Rösler Lara , Göhring Stefan , Strunz Michael , Gamer Matthias
Published: January 2019

Much of our current understanding of social anxiety rests on the use of simplistic stimulation material in laboratory settings. Latest technological developments now allow the investigation of eye movements and physiological measures during real interactions with adequate recording quality. Considering the wealth of conflicting findings on gaze behavior in social anxiety, the current study aimed at unraveling the mechanisms contributing to differential gaze patterns in a naturalistic setting in the general population and in social anxiety. We introduced participants with differing social anxiety symptoms to a waiting room situation while recording heart rate and electrodermal activity using mobile sensors and eye movements using mobile eye-tracking glasses. We observed fewer fixations on the head of the confederate in the initial waiting phase of the experiment. These head fixations increased when the confederate was involved in a phone call and head fixations were most pronounced during the actual conversation. In opposition to gaze-avoidance models of social anxiety, we did not observe any correlations between social anxiety and visual attention. Social anxiety was, however, associated with elevated heart rate throughout the entire experiment suggesting that physiological hyperactivity constitutes a cardinal feature of the disorder.

Published: January 2019

This study examined status of adoption of improved maize varieties in Nepal. Six hundred eighty two households were sampled from six districts namely Sindhupalchowk, Lalitpur, Khotang, Dang, Chitwan and Dadeldhura. Data was analyzed through descriptive statistics. The results indicated that the slow growth rate of area, production and yield was around 2.7% p.a. and growth rate is moreover stagnant rate from 1990-2015. Adoption of modern variety was found to be 75% of household. Mean area of maize cultivation in Nepal is 0.431 ha/HH. Only seven improved variety were adopted in large scale and they were adopted in 70.60% of maize cultivating areas. Improved variety Rampur composite, Mankamana-3 and Deuti and Hybrid CP 808 were found to be highly adopted. While CP 808, Shrestha and Rajkumar hybrids were dominating hybrids. Age of household head, Caste, Migration, credit accessibility, cooperative involvement, extension visit, training, formal sector seed availability and knowledge about agricultural insurance were found positive factors affecting adoption of modern variety of maize. However education and livestock numbers found negatively contribute to adoption.
Effect of Preceding Winter Crops and Residue Management on Growth Performance, Weed, Nutrient Uptake and Economics of Clusterbean (Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba L. Taub.] Under Zero-Till Semi-Arid Condition
Authors: Amgain L.
Published: January 2019

Field experiments under zero-till rainfed ecosystem were conducted during 2010-11 and 2011-12 at Indian Agricultural Research Institutive New Delhi for identifying the agronomic performance, weed dynamics, nutrient uptake and profitability of clusterbean based cropping systems (clusterbean-wheat, clusterbean-mustard and clusterbean-chickpea) as influenced by three residue management practices (no residue, crop residues and Leucaena twigs) applied to both summer and winter seasonal crops. Randomized Complete Block Design with four replications were used to conduct the trials. Significantly higher green-pod yield of clusterbean (10.08 t ha-1 and 6.70 t ha-1) was recorded with the application of Leucaena twigs, followed by crop residue mulching and the least with no-residue application in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Wheat and chickpea as preceding crops produced significantly higher clusterbean green-pod yield (6.54 t ha-1 and 6.43 t ha-1) than mustard (5.18 t ha-1). The yield attributes viz. pod-clusters and weight of pods per plant showed significant variation. Significantly higher dry matter yield (299.9 g m-2) of Cyperus iria was recorded with mustard residues followed by chickpea (253.1 g m-2) and wheat (194.0 g m-2) residues. The nutrient uptake showed the same trend as that of dry pod and stalks yields and resulted significant influence due to residue management and preceding crops. Economic analysis exhibited the highest returns and net returns per Rupee invested under wheat with Leucaena twigs followed by chickpea with Leucaena twigs. Clusterbean after wheat and chickpea with Leucaena twigs was high yielding and profitable for rainfed areas under zero-till semi-arid condition.
Efficacy of Two Species of Coccinellid Predators Against Four Different Aphid Pest Species at Khumaltar, Nepal
Authors: Maharjan B. , Thapa R. B. , Bajracharya A. S.R.
Published: January 2019

An experiment was conducted in completely randomized design (CRD) to study the efficacy and biology of two coccinellid species with four aphid species at the mass-rearing laboratory of Entomology Division, Nepal Agricultural Research Council (NARC), Khumaltar from February to May 2016. Two coccinellid species, i.e. Coccinella septumpunctata Linn. and Adonia variegate (Goeze) were given four aphid species viz; Myzus persicae (Sulzer), Lipaphis erysimi (Kaltenbach), Aphis craccivora (Koch) and Brevicorynae brassicae Linn. separately to compare the efficacy of two beetle species as effective bio-control agent. Predatory activity of C. septumpunctata was the highest on L. erysimi(feeding 183 aphids) and the lowest on A. craccivora (feeding on 126 aphids), while, that of A. variegate (Goeze) was the highest on L. erysimi (feeding 155.4 aphids) and the lowest on B. brassicae (feeding 112 aphids) during their larval stages. Fourth instar individual larval weight of C. septumpunctata was recorded the highest (26.82 mg) when fed on A. craccivora and the lowest (13.9 mg) when fed on B. brassicae, while the 4th instar larval weight of A. variegate was only 12.82 mg and 11.34mg when fed on same aphid species. Pupal and adult weight was also recorded the highest for C. septumpunctata as compared to A. variegata. Similar result was obtained for weights of adult when larvae fed on A. craccivora. The weight of female was observed relatively higher than that of male from this study for both beetle species. There was a positive correlation between predation and weight gained by larvae with respect to all aphid species. From this study, it can be concluded that C. septumpunctata seems better promising species of predators of aphids, especially beneficial in biological control of aphid species.

Authors: KC S. , Kafle K. , Khadka A.
Published: January 2019

A survey of leaf footed bugs (Hemiptera: Coreidae) was conducted in two hilly districts of Nepal viz. Lamjung and Kaski, over a period of 13 months (April 2017-May 2018). The prime purpose of the research was to find out the Coreidae diversity in these regions which hasn’t been done before. Sundarbazar, Kunchha and Dura Daanda areas from Lamjung and Hemja and Sarangkot from Kaski were explored. A total of 111 specimens of Coreidae were collected from altitude varying from 700-1600 masl. Eleven different species of these bugs from 1 subfamily, 7 tribes and 7 genera were recorded. All the species fell under single subfamily Coreinae Leach, 1815. One species, Acanthocoris scabrator (Fabricius, 1803) fell under the tribe Acanthocorini Bergroth, one species, Leptoglossus gonagra (Fabricius, 1775) fell under tribe Anisoscelini Laporte, one, Cloresmus khasianus (Distant, 1901) under Cloresmini (Stal) and one, Dalader acuticosta (Amyot & Serville, 1843) under Daladerini Stal. Similarly, 3 species viz. Cletus bipunctatus (Herrich-Schäffer, 1840), Cletus pygophorus (Gupta & Singh, 2013) and Cletus trigonus (Thunberg, 1783) fell under the tribe Gonocerini Mulsant and Rey. Likewise, 3 species were found under the tribe Homoeocerini Amyot and Serville viz. Homoeocerus (Anacanthocoris) striicornis (Scott, 1874), Homoeocerus (Anacanthocoris) sp. and Homoeocerus (Tliponius) unipunctatus (Thunberg, 1783) and 1 species, Anoplocnemis phasianus (Fabricius, 1781) was found under Mictini Amyot and Serville.
Effects of Different Concentrations of Sucrose on Vase Life of Rose (Rosa sps.cv. Dutch Hybrid)
Authors: Chaudhary G. , Khanal A.
Published: January 2019

Keeping quality is an important parameter for evaluation of rose cut flower quality, both in export and domestic markets as fresh cut rose flowers are highly perishable due to limited water uptake and low available energy. Carbohydrate is the main food source to maintain the energy requirement for flowers .An experiment was conducted at Horticulture Laboratory of Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, Lamjung, Nepal on January 2017 in order to find out best concentration of sucrose that enhances and prolongs the better flower quality and longevity. Experiment was laid out with 10 treatments viz. tap water, tap water + 2% sucrose, tap water + 4% sucrose, tap water + 6% sucrose, tap water + 8% sucrose, distilled water, distilled water + 2% sucrose, distilled water + 4% sucrose, distilled water + 6% sucrose and distilled water + 8% sucrose under completely randomized design with three replications. Rose sticks were harvested at flower bud stage and two sticks were kept in each vase solution. Effect of different concentrations of sucrose solution on water uptake, weight gain or loss, neck bending, flower diameter, days to full bloom and vase life was affected significantly. The rose flower held in distilled water + 6% Sucrose was recorded to have higher value (7.77cm) for flower diameter at 10 days followed by Tap water + 6% Sucrose with value 7.62cm. Similarly, lower flower diameter (2.29cm) was observed in Tap water at Day16 followed by Distilled water with value 3.21cm. Similar pattern was observed in all other parameters having highest vase life (19.5 days) in Distilled water + 6% Sucrose and lowest (15.17 days) in tap water only. Among different concentrations of sucrose solution, distilled water + 6% sucrose was found highly effective for longevity of cultivar.

Authors: Marasini P. , Khanal A .
Published: January 2019

An experiment was conducted at Lamjung Campus, Lamjung to assess the rooting performance and bud sprouting of Bougainvillea, an evergreen ornamental vine. The study was conducted in partially controlled environment with two factorial treatments considering factor A in four levels(coco peat + sand, sand + FYM, garden soil, garden soil + FYM and garden soil )and factor B (with and without NAA 3000ppm) were arranged in completely randomized design (CRD) with three replication during September- November, 2016. 18 cuttings having 15 cm in length with 4 buds were planted in each treatment. Root length (7.83cm) found in Sand & FYM was significantly different to other media but rooting percentage (77.77%) was found statistically at par with other media except garden soil. Effect of hormone was found non-significant on total sprouted plant, sprout diameter and number of sprouts/cuttings whereas other parameters were affected significantly. Interaction effect of rooting media and hormone significantly affects root length (11.6cm) and rooting percentage (83.33%) which was found on sand & FYM along with NAA 3000ppm followed by Garden soil & FYM in combination with NAA 3000ppm while others parameters were non-significant. Thus it is advisable to use a good rooting media along with application of NAA 3000 ppm for better rooting in cuttings.

Published: January 2019

The pathogens which are the effective transmitters of various infections pose a serious problem in restraining their interference in maintaining a sterile environment. The practical applicability of traditional methods of disinfection is restricted due to their cumbersomeness, toxic product generation, and cost-effectiveness. Therefore, the objective of the current review is to elaborate the efficacies and limitations of various novel disinfectants that can show their activity in a few minutes of treatment. The expected outcome would be feasibility for selection of a favorable disinfectant through various technologies that can generate uniform results and form a basis for the true estimation required parameters. Hence, the current paper ends with the consideration of unique new techniques that distinguishes their simplicity, safety, and efficacy in generating a sterile environment.
Micellization and Counterion Binding Behavior of Cetylpyridinium Chloride in Aqueous Solutions of Sodium Bromide and Tetrabutylammonium Bromide
Authors: Mukhim Teiborlang , Ismail Kochi
Published: January 2019

Critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) in aqueous sodium bromide and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) solutions were determined at 30 °C by conductivity and surface tension measurements. Bromide counterions reduce CMC of CPC more than the chloride. The modified form of the Corrin-Harkins (CH) equation describes the variation of CMC of CPC with the concentration of added electrolyte containing different counterions. It is demonstrated that the mixed-electrolyte-model (MEM) of Shanks and Franses can be applied to analyze the conductivity data of the surfactant solution containing mixed counterions, which was otherwise used for a surfactant solution containing single counterion only. The value of the total counterion binding constant (β) obtained from the MEM was then used to separate from the slope of the modified CH equation the counterion binding constants for chloride (β1) and bromide (β2) ions. This data analysis showed that binding of bromide counterion to cetylpyridinium ionic micelle is stronger than that of the chloride counterion, which is in accordance with the positions of chloride and bromide ions in the Hoffmeister series and the results reported from other studies.

Published: January 2019

Nonionic surfactants are increasingly interesting because of the solubility and release of drugs. Here, a synthesis of four nonionic nitrogen-containing surfactants is reported. In the synthesis, sulfonamide was reacted with alkyl halides of different lipophilicity. The synthesized nonionic surfactants were characterized by 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy. Their critical micelle concentration (CMC) was determined with a UV spectrophotometer. The self-assembly of surfactants to form drug-loaded, niosomal vesicles with Simvastatin as model drug was investigated. The resulting niosoaml vesicles were characterized by atomic force microscope (AFM), zeta-sizer, and UV spectrophotometer for shape, size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, and drug inclusion efficiency. Their biocompatibility has been determined by blood hemolysis and cell toxicity tests. The synthesized surfactants showed low CMC values and were able to form nano-sized round niosomal vesicles with a homogeneous population and surface negativity. Depending on the lipophilicity, they absorbed an increased amount of drug. The biocompatibility studies show that the surfactants are hemocompatible and non-toxic. The results of the study confirm that the synthesized nonionic surfactants are suitable for the solubilization and release of hydrophobic drugs as efficient novel biocompatible carriers.

The present study reports the use of autologous serum as adjuvant in the treatment of corneal ulcer in horses. On 09/08/2018 was attended at the Veterinary Hospital Dr. Vicente Borelli, a male equine, Quarter Horse, four years old, weighting 460 kg, submitted to a daily diet composed of 5 kg of concentrate and bulky and water ad libitum. The animal participated in equestrian test, it was transported in closed vehicle (truck), as soon as returned to the property presented ocular discomfort. Therefore, a veterinary service was requested which confirmed the diagnosis for corneal ulcer and instituted treatment that was not successful and was referred to the Veterinary Hospital. In the general clinical examination all the parameters were within normality. An ophthalmic clinical examination was performed, identifying blepharospasms, irregularity and opacity of the cornea and anterior chamber, presence of ciliary ejection, with a positive test for fluorescein. A systemic treatment with Flunixin meglumine administration was started during five days. Thus, the topical treatment with autologous serum was made, collected in red tubes with clot activator of 5 mL centrifuged at 3,000 rpm. Two drops of 1% atropine sulfate/BID were instilled. Between days 09/08 and 09/14 two drops of tobramycin sulfate and autologous serum were instituted every one hour. On 09/15 and 09/16, the frequency of tobramycin sulfate and autologous serum was 2 hours, totaling 12 applications per day. A further fluorescein test was carried out with a reduction of approximately 70%. From 09/17 to 09/20 the frequency was changed to six hours among applications. The fluorescein test was redone at which was negative. On 09/21 the use of autologous serum was ceased, maintaining the applications of tobramycin sulfate until 09/24. Also on 09/21 two drops of diclofenac sodium 0.1% were instilled four times a day until 09/28/2018. That same day the patient was discharged. It is concluded that autologous serum acts as an adjuvant in corneal ulcers in horses, conferring satisfactory results, presenting low cost, practicality of preparation and minimizing the use of conventional treatments without clinical response.
