Groundwater contamination characterization using multivariate statistical analysis and geostatistical method
Authors: Chaudhry Akshay Kumar , Kumar Kamal , Alam Mohd. Afaq 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
The aim of the present study is to identify sources of groundwater contamination in Rupnagar district, Punjab, using an integrated approach of exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and ordinary kriging (OK). For this, a 13 physico-chemical parameter data set at 14 sampling locations for a period of over 25 years was assessed. The correlation was statistically examined amongst parameters. A five-factor model is proposed which explains over 89.11% of total groundwater quality variation. Three semi-variogram models, namely exponential, Gaussian, and spherical, fitted well for the data set and are cross-validated using predictive statistics. Spatial variability maps of all the parameters and factor scores are generated and are in good agreement with each other. The variation seen in groundwater quality is mainly due to various hydrogeochemical, anthropogenic, and geogenic processes occurring in the region. Thus, this study indicated that there is need to treat the industrial and municipal wastewater before discharging it (directly/indirectly) into nearby streams and pits and to encourage sustainable agricultural practices to prevent adverse health effects and minimize further environmental degradation in the study region.

Background/Objective:
LPS-responsive beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency is a
combined immunodeficiency and immune dysregulation. The authors present a case report of LPSresponsive
beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency with the history of autoimmunity, enteropathy
and visceral leishmaniasis. Sirolimus therapy was started for autoimmunity and enteropathy but was
discontinued due to recurrent leishmaniasis. Therefore, a common side-effect of many immunosuppressive
drugs in patients with LRBA deficiency is increased susceptibility to infections.

Methods:
Whole exome sequencing was performed to detect the underlying genetic mutation and
Leishmania DNA was detected by the PCR technique in this patient.

Results:
Whole exome sequencing of the patient reported a homozygous frameshift deletion mutation
in the LRBA gene (NM_006726: exon29: c.4638delC, p. S1546fs). Leishmania DNA PCR was positive
in this case.

Conclusion:
Parasite infections manifestations report in LRBA deficiency. Leishmania infections in
patients with chronic diarrhea and autoimmunity should be considered for immunodeficiency.

The need for raw materials of fried onions derived from 'lembah palu Shallot tubers variety is high enough and can not be fulfilled, because the productivity is still low. This study aimed to find the type of plant growth regulator substances (PGR) with a long period of proper immersion to improve the germination of Shallot tuber. The research was conducted on Mei until June 2017 in Bulupontou Village, Sigi Regency. The study used two factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD). First factor of type RGS: (Z1) onion extract 100 g/l water, and (Z2) atonic 5 ml/l water. The second factor was long seed immersion in PGR: (T1)=30 min; (T2)=60 minutes; (T3)=90 minutes, and (T4)=120 minutes. Each treatment was represented 20 plants and repeated 3 times, so it was used 480 plants. The results showed that (i) red onion tubers soaked with Shallot extract 100 g/liter of water for 30-90 minutes yielded 100% Germinations, and tubers soaked in red onion extract for 30 minutes resulted in germination rate 31.3%/etmal, (ii) the type of growth regulator of shallot extract and atonic (PGR) effect was not significant on the germination of shallot; and (iii) the 30 minute long growth regulator immersion produced the highest hypothetical vigor index.

Published: August 2019

This research deals with the development of self concept of Hiroko as the main character in Namaku Hiroko by Nh. Dini and tries to identify how Hiroko is portrayed in the story, how she interacts with other characters and whether she is portrayed as a character dominated by ”I” element or ”Me” element seen from sociological and cultural point of view. As a qualitative research in nature, the source of data in this research is the novel Namaku Hiroko (1967) and the data ara analyzed and presented deductively. The result of this analysis shows that in the novel, Hiroko as a fictional character is portrayed as a girl whose personality develops and changes drastically from ”Me” to ”I”. When she was still in the village l iving with her parents, she was portrayed as a obedient girl who was loyal to the parents, polite and acted in accordance with the social customs. In short, her personality was dominated by ”Me” self concept. On the other hand, when she moved to the city (Kyoto), she was portrayed as a wild girl no longer controlled by the social customs. She was firm and determined totake decisions of her won for her future without considering what other people would say about her. She did not want to be treated as object. To put it in another way, her personality is more dominated by the ”I” self concept.
A PRESENCE WITHOUT PRESENT: MAKING SENSE WITH THE OTHER
Authors: BODEA Cristian 
Published: August 2019

Marc Richir’s phenomenological work proposes a new type of phenomenology, a non-standard one. To him, a non-standard phenomenology is, first of all, a phenomenology that is crossing the barrier of intentionality (Richir, 2015). In this context, perception has a special role. Firstly, it involves phantasia, and not the imaginary. Secondly, it is a perception of non-intentional objects. Because of these two reasons, the other becomes the Other, namely a non-intentional object that cannot be pinpointed in a definite time / space frame. In this paper, I will try to demonstrate that, starting from this lack of conceptualization that the Other represents, a sense is constructed. It is a sense in the making (sens se faisant), as Richir puts it (Richir 1988, 2015); a sense whose never-ending development gives meaning to someone’s life. In order for this to take place, the effective presence of the Other is crucial. Otherwise, sense stands still and meaning is aborted.
APPROCHE DES CRIS PHILOSOPHIQUES. FORMES DE PENSÉES SINGULIÈRES DANS LES PRATIQUES PHILOSOPHIQUES AVEC LES ENFANTS
Authors: FOURNEL Anda 
Published: August 2019

The discursive and reflexive practices falling within Philosophy for children (P4C) program aim to enable children to develop autonomous and authentic thinking by transforming the class into a community of philosophical inquiry. The educational program’s initiators put forward the idea that learning to think cannot exclusively follow a rationality model. Considering Deleuze distinction (1984) between cry of reason and cry of unreason as a starting point, we are interested in cry’s specimens – the concept and the question – as the call’s living forms in philosophical thought, linked to the emotions’ expression. Our investigation explores the folds of children’s thinking, through a qualitative analysis of classroom recordings in primary and middle school, in order to asses children’s ability to provide philosophical cries. If so, one might wonder what do they shout and how do they do it?
EMBODIED LEARNING OF LANGUAGE IN PRESCHOOLERS: EMOTION, ENACTMENT, AND COGNITION

Published: August 2019

Language learning in preschool children tends to be likened to school-like learning, using verbal explanations more than actions when new words are learned during storytelling. Based on previous results that showed that sensorimotor elements help language learning at this age this study aimed to investigate whether positive emotions also act like essential elements for language learning. Fifty-five 4 to 5 year olds listened to a modified version of the Town Musicians of Bremen story. There were four conditions: one that included emotions and sensorimotor elements during storytelling, one that had only emotions, one that had only sensorimotor elements, and one that had neither emotions nor sensorimotor elements. Results show no advantage of positive emotions by themselves, and a clear advantage of sensorimotor elements. Implications are discussed with regard to inducing emotions versus naturally arising emotional states, and also to the embodied learning perspective.

Ostropest plamisty (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.) jest obecnie jednym z ważniejszych gatunków roślin leczniczych uprawianym na plantacjach zielarskich. Surowcem zielarskim ostropestu jest owoc (Silybi mariani fructus) zawierający kompleks flawonolignanów określanych jako sylimaryna. Sylimaryna wykazuje działanie ochronne i regenerujące względem uszkodzonych komórek wątroby. Działanie ochronne sylimaryny wiąże się z jej aktywnością antyoksydacyjną, przeciwzapalną, przeciwwirusową, a także odtruwającą. Związek ten wpływa również na syntezę RNA i DNA. Sylimaryna jest obecnie szeroko stosowana jako środek terapeutyczny w leczeniu wielu ostrych i przewlekłych chorób wątroby. Ostatnie badania dowodzą, że sylimaryna jest skutecznym lekiem przeciwwirusowym w przypadku wirusa zapalenia wątroby typu C (HCV). Wskazywana jest także jako obiecujący środek przeciwnowotworowy, przeciwcukrzycowy i nefroochronny. W lecznictwie i kosmetologii zastosowanie ma także olej z nasion ostropestu, bogaty w cenne kwasy tłuszczowe, fosfolipidy i witaminę E.
TINJAUAN TERHADAP ASPEK DRAMATIK IKLAN RADIO

Published: August 2019

Dramatic aspect is very important to build an appropriate radio advertisement and the role of theater art in the making is necessary. Radio advertisement assumed as very short radio drama, only in a matter of second in duration. Nevertheless, as same as radio drama, a radio advertisement has a structure such as characterization, plot, theme, setting, and dialog as well, where the dramatic aspect of radio advertisement occurred. It contains conflict as the essence of drama, suspense, and foreshadowing. From fifteen sample of radio advertisement, it found that theme is not identical with the advertized product. The ads using linear plot, characterization and setting is not always clear due to the limited time available to explain the characterization and setting in question. In general, radio advertisement using non-formal language. The dramatic aspect of an advertisement is very important since it where the advertisement able to attract its audience. To achieve such dramatic attraction, conflict is build based on theme with the dialog or monolog. Furthermore, suspense and foreshadowing often appear altogether. Words or sentences to express foreshadowing, often speak out in certain pattern, which create suspense. Theoretical understanding and practical exercises of the theatre happen to be very useful in the making of radio advertisement. The theoretical aspect of the theatre, such as playwriting and text analysis can used in preparing the advertisement's text, while the practical one, such as breathing exercise, vocal, and audio acting is needed in creating the ready on air radio advertisement. Key words: dramatic aspect, advertisement's structure, plot, characterization, theme, setting, dialog, conflict, foreshadowing, suspense.
Geology and Origin of the Vanadiferous Fe-Ti Oxide-rich Kennedy's Vale Discordant Body, Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa
Authors: Scoon R.N. , Costin G. , Gräbe P.J. 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
The 2055 Ma Bushveld Complex, South Africa, is well known for the occurrence of discordant bodies within the Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS). Many discordant bodies disrupt mining of layered reefs, but a few have been successfully exploited, including the well known platiniferous dunite pipes. The Kennedy's Vale discordant body, situated in the Steelpoort Valley section of the Eastern Limb, has been almost entirely mined out for a central core of vanadium-rich Ti-magnetite. Discordant bodies are particularly abundant in this area which is severely disrupted by syn-Bushveld doming and faulting. The three-dimensional shape of discordant bodies in the RLS is highly variable, most are pipe-like, but Kennedy's Vale is unusual in that it constitutes an elongate, dyke-like body. The Kennedy's Vale occurrence is emplaced within gabbroic-anorthositic wall rocks of the Lower Main Zone, at a stratigraphic height of several thousands of metres below the Ti-magnetite layers. A broad zonation is recognised and the central core of massive Fe-Ti oxides is enclosed by an inner sheath of iron-rich wehrlite pegmatite and an outer sheath of iron-rich clinopyroxenite pegmatite. The sheath contains disseminated Fe-Ti oxides. An irregular and diffuse reaction rim has been identified between the outer sheath and the wall rocks.
Kennedy's Vale is part of the iron-rich ultramafic pegmatite (IRUP) group of discordant bodies, highly unusual rocks characterised by the absence of plagioclase and being more differentiated than the wall rocks in which they are emplaced. The composition of the olivine in the outer sheath at Kennedys' Vale (Fo49.6-46.5) is typical of the IRUP at this stratigraphic height, but considerably more differentiated than the pyroxene in the wall rocks. The reaction rim to the dyke includes relic grains of extremely calcic plagioclase and symplectites, indicative of high-temperature reactions. Symplectites formed due to reaction between the primocrysts in the gabbroic wall rocks and Fe-Ti melts. Kennedy's Vale crystallized from dense, immiscible Fe-Ti oxide-rich melts that drained downward within the RLS into the underlying cumulates with which they reacted. The relatively high vanadium content of the Ti-magnetite in the Kennedy's Vale orebody (average of 2.0 to 2.2 weight % V2O5) is consistent with melts sourced from the lowermost group of Ti-magnetite layers in the Upper Zone. The internal zonation of the dyke is ascribed to contamination of melt with distance from the conduit. The core-zone of massive Fe-Ti oxides was the last component to form as it required a persistent supply of Fe-Ti oxide melt. The absence of core parts of massive Fe-Ti oxides from some bodies of IRUP can be explained by their relatively low stratigraphic height or the relative paucity of introduced melt.
Lithostratigraphy of the Kirkwood Formation (Uitenhage Group), including the Bethelsdorp, Colchester and Swartkops Members, South Africa

Published: August 2019

Abstract
The Jurassic – Cretaceous Kirkwood Formation forms part of the Uitenhage Group, the earliest deposits to fill Mesozoic rift basins that developed in what is now the southern Cape of South Africa during the breakup of Gondwana. The Kirkwood Formation is not only palaeontologically extremely important, having yielded diverse assemblages of vertebrate, invertebrate and plant fossil taxa, but also contains suitable source rocks for hydrocarbon systems offshore of the southern Cape of South Africa. The Kirkwood Formation comprises chronostratigraphic markers in the form of radiometrically dateable volcaniclastic deposits and age-diagnostic invertebrate fossils, which may provide robust dates for the depositional history of the Uitenhage Group. The Kirkwood, including the Bethelsdorp, Colchester and Swartkops Members, is 2210 m at its thickest and comprises sandstones and mudstones deposited in fluvial and lacustrine depositional settings from the Tithonian to Valanginian. These microfossil-based ages may only apply to the unit in its type area in the Algoa Basin and not to its lithostratigraphic correlatives in the other Mesozoic rift basins, which have highly variable ages ranging from Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous.
