Types of maps used as a stimuli in cartographical empirical research
Authors: Słomska Katarzyna 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
Revisions of achievements of empirical studies in cartography focused on describing main research themes and diagnosing challenges to be approached. Intriguingly, there is no analysis of maps used as a stimuli in these experiments. In order to fill existing scarcity, this paper presents the analysis of the content of four journals affiliated by the International Cartographic Association. Four features (map medium, reactiveness, method of cartographic presentation, users familiarity with the depicted data) are described based on 103 papers presenting empirical studies. Types of maps were identified in scope of every feature. Most frequently used ones are displayed on the screen, non-interactive, depicting qualitative data and area unfamiliar for the participant of the study.

Periodontitis is an inflamation of supporting tissues on teeth that became the main cause of Prophyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) bacteria. Treatment of periodontitis is by giving antibacterial agent therapy. Plants that have antibacterial effects one are Eleutherine bulbosa (UEB) bulbs from the Iridaceae family. This plant has been used for ethnobotany boils drugs and has been known to have antibacterial activity toward against intestinal pathogen bacteria that is anaerobic Gram Negative, but still unknown its activity against on oral pathogenic bacteria such as P. gingivalis. The purpose of this study was to know the effect of UEB extract on the growth of P. gingivalis bacteria as in vitro. UEB is taken from agriculture center in Samarinda city. UEB Simplisia was tested for antibacterial activity using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method on BHI-A media supplemented with vitamin K and hemin. The bacteria which used were P. gingivalis ATCCÂ® 33277. Blank disc 6 mm with nine concentrations attached to BHI-A medium, incubated for 24 hours at 37 Â°C in an anaerobic atmosphere, then sprayed MTT (3-[4,5-Dimethylthiazole-2-yl]-2,5-diphenylttetrazoliumbromide) reagent and read a few moments later. For comparison, then used Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) 2 mg/ml. The statistical analysis with t-test and there was significant different if p<0.05. The result showed that the higher concentration of UEB ethanol extract will increase the growth inhibition zone of P. gingivalis bacteria and reach maximum at 10 mg/ml concentration. The result of t-test showed no difference significant of P. gingivalis bacterial inhibition zone in the treatment group of 7.5 mg/ml and 10 mg/ml concentration on CHX group. This study proves UEB ethanol extract can inhibit the growth of P. gingivalis bacteria.
Microstructure Determines Water and Salt Permeation in Commercial Ion Exchange 1 Membranes
Authors: Kingsbury Ryan , Zhu Shan , Flotron Sophie , Coronell Orlando 
Published: August 2018

Ion exchange membrane (IEM) performance in electrochemical processes such as fuel cells, redox flow batteries, or reverse electrodialysis (RED) is typically quantified through membrane selectivity and conductivity, which together determine the energy efficiency. However, water and co-ion transport (i.e., osmosis and salt diffusion / fuel crossover) also impact energy efficiency by allowing uncontrolled mixing of the electrolyte solutions to occur. For example, in RED with hypersaline water sources, uncontrolled mixing consumes 20-50% of the available mixing energy. Thus, in addition to high selectivity and high conductivity, it is desirable for IEMs to have low permeability to water and salt in order to minimize energy losses. Unfortunately, there is very little quantitative water and salt permeability information data available for commercial IEMs, making it difficult to select the best membrane for a particular application. Accordingly, we measured the water and salt transport properties of 20 commercial IEMs and analyzed the relationships between permeability, diffusion and partitioning according to the solution-diffusion model. We found that water and salt permeance vary over several orders of magnitude among commercial IEMs, making some membranes better-suited than others to electrochemical processes that involve high salt concentrations and/or concentration gradients. Water and salt diffusion coefficients were found to be the principal factors contributing to the differences in permeance among commercial IEMs. We also observed that water and salt permeability were highly correlated to one another for all IEMs studied, regardless of polymer type or reinforcement. This finding suggests that transport of mobile salt in IEMs is governed by the microstructure of the membrane, and provides clear evidence that mobile salt does not interact strongly with polymer chains in highly-swollen IEMs.

El hombre como construcción fallida El principio de libertad como elemento de impacto ambiental negativo
Authors: Yate Arévalo Abdénago 
Published: August 2018

El hombre como faulty construction ha puesto en evidencia la existencia de estrategias de poder, en especial por parte de los mercados liberales, que lo convierten de individuum a dividuum. Desarticulan al sujeto en sus identidades, lo deconstruyen y lo cosifican. Así, desde los principios de libertad y responsabilidad, en tanto soporte de la obsolescencia programada articulada por el mercado en la producción de bienes de consumo, se analiza cómo ésta ha generado tal nivel de crisis de identidad que ha impactado el medio ambiente negativo, por cuanto se pone en riesgo tanto al sujeto, la sociedad, como a todos los vivientes del planeta. En este sentido se identifica que el Human Engineering no solo construye un mundo no-humano, sino así mismo dentro de redes que
llevan en detrimento el medio ambiente.
PEREMPUAN DI LEMBAGA PENDIDIKAN AL JAM’IYATUL WASHLIYAH

Published: August 2018

<strong>Abstrak: </strong>Artikel ini mengkaji kedudukan perempuan di lembaga pendidikan Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah di Sumatera Utara. Organisasi Al Washliyah merupakan organisasi Islam tradisional yang menganut mazhab Ahlussunnahwaljamaah dalam bidang akidah dan Syâfi‘iyah dalam bidang fikih. Afiliasi organisasi ini dalam kedua mazhab tersebut disinyalir akan tidak memberikan kedudukan yang setara antara perempuan dengan laki-laki. Artikel ini merupakan hasil penelitian kualitatif dimana data penelitian diperoleh dari kegiatan telaah dokumen dan observasi. Kajian ini mengajukan temuan bahwa lembaga pendidikan Al Washliyah yang dikelola oleh Majelis Pendidikan Al Washliyah ternyata belum memberikan porsi signifikan bagi kaum perempuan dalam struktur organisasinya. Tidak pernah ditemukan perempuan menjadi ketua atau sekretaris majelis, kecuali sebagai bendahara. Tetapi, kaum perempuan telah dilibatkan sebagai manajer di lembaga pendidikan Al Washliyah. Sebab, beberapa jabatan pimpinan madrasah, sekolah, dan perguruan tinggi Al Washliyah dipegang oleh kaum perempuan. Tenaga pendidik di lembaga pendidikan Al Washliyah telah banyak diisi oleh kaum perempuan. Sebagian guru dan dosen perempuan Al Washliyah telah memiliki ijazah master. Memang, beberapa dari mereka dipercayakan sebagai manajer dengan tanggung jawab yang besar. <br /><strong> </strong><br /><strong>Abstract: Women in Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah Educational Institution</strong>. This article examines women’s position in Al Jam’iyatul Washliyah educational institutions in North Sumatra. Al Washliyah organization is a traditional Islamic organization that practices the <em>Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jamâ‘ah</em> theology and Shâfi‘i school of law. It has been alledged that these school of theology and law would not allow equal opportunity for man and woman. Nevertheless, this study—which mainly based on document review and observation—found that that was not exactly the case. While it is true that in Al Washliyah Education Council women are under respresented, the condition is much better in educational institutions. In Al Washliyah educational institutions, it is common to find female teachers and lecturers with master degrees. Indeed, some of them are entrusted as managers with substantial responsibilities. <br /> <br /><strong>Kata Kunci:</strong><strong> </strong>gender, perempuan, Al Washliyah, madrasah, Sumatera Utara
Threats posed by Asian subterranean termites in the Fiji Islands and their potential controls: a review
Authors: Chand Ravneel R. , Jokhan Anjeela D. , Charan Harshna , Raj Kushaal , Singh Priyatma 
Published: August 2018

Termites belong to the infraorder Isoptera, which contains almost 3,000 described species worldwide. These social insects cause substantial damage globally leading to billions of dollars of losses annually. Damage can occur to timber, wooden goods, paper, cotton, certain plastics, trees and many crops. Consequently, termite control and management is a major sector in the global pest-control industry. However, economic losses due to termite damage have not been quantified in the Fiji Islands to date. A review of published literature was conducted to assess the geographic range of Asian subterranean termites that occur in the Fiji Islands and to identify existing and potential control measures. The most common termite species that is known to cause millions of dollars of damage each year in the Fiji Islands is Coptotermes gestroi. This species is currently controlled primarily using the chemical fipronil but integrated termite management is the preferred long-term solution. Other possible control methods include physical, cultural, chemical and biological options.

STUDENTS’ WRITING DIFFICULTY IN COMPOSING A DESCRIPTIVE TEXT (A Quantitative Study of the First Year Students at STKIP Persada Khatulistiwa Sintang)
Authors: Ullah Wa Ode Ritna Yuniyr 
Published: August 2018

The fact that writing was considered as difficult for most students still remained an unresolved issue. Yet, some educators still continued disregarding what was going on with students’ writing difficulty to promote appropriate way in their teaching of writing. Thus this study was aimed at finding out students’ writing difficulty in composing a descriptive text of the FirstYear Students at STKIP Persada Khatulistiwa Sintang. This study employed quantitative descriptive analysis to describe students’ writing difficulty. One class of first year students of English Language Study Program took part in this study. The data were gathered through writing test that was done on November 6th,2017. The finding showed that students had significant difficulty in composing a descriptive text. It was proved by the mean score of students’ writing quality, i.e. 46 or classified as very poorbased on the criteria suggested by Jacob (1981). Therefore, it was imperative for thelecturer in this class to encourage the learners togive more emphasis on itemsseen difficult by the students in composing the text.

Rewarding employees for corporate performance improvements
Authors: Karikari Ama Foriwaa , Opoku Boadi Portia , Sai Andrew Adjah 
Published: August 2018

Given that financial rewards constitute more than 40 percent of payroll budgets, total reward is a most important and complex notion that organizations seeking to accomplish set purpose(s) must pursue. Vying to sustain themselves and to gain competitive advantage, business enterprises and other societal organizations increasingly care for their employees’ well-being. Ergo, employers face two decision options, namely financial and non-financial rewards that make employees content. Unfortunately, most firms emphasize one option more than the other, depending on their prevailing circumstances. Using a mutual-investment framework as a guide, this article explores the influence of employees’ total rewards on corporate performance. Analyzed are the influences of both financial and non-financial employee rewards on an educational institution performance and how such rewards improve performance. When provided, total rewards can entreat employees to retain their positions, while remaining loyal to their respective organizations. Yet the implementation of total rewards in an educational institution calls for employees’ bravery, especially concerning non-financial rewards, which render employees semi-autonomous.
EVENTOS DE ALTA ENERGIA E SUAS CONSEQUÊNCIAS NA ZONA COSTEIRA DO MUNICÍPIO DE AQUIRAZ, ESTADO DO CEARÁ
Authors: Maia Glacianne Oliveira , Pinheiro Lidriana De Souza 
Published: August 2018

O artigo teve como objetivo realizar um levantamento teórico-metodológico dos mecanismos que envolvem eventos de alta energia associados a erosão, vulnerabilidade e impactos nas dunas frontais e faixa de praia do Município de Aquiraz, Ceará. Alguns desses fenômenos estão cada vez mais frequentes na zona costeira e, nesta pesquisa, tiveram destaque as tempestades e os galgamentos associadas às ondas swell, e elevação do nível das águas do Oceano Atlântico. Vários métodos têm evoluído de enfoques individuais e estão corroborando para a classificação de áreas mais vulneráveis da zona costeira, e identificando os principais riscos costeiros e possíveis previsões de novos eventos. Eventos de ressaca seguidos de galgamento ocorrem sazonalmente no litoral cearense, onde predomina a presença de praias em estágio inicial de degradação. Esses problemas têm aumentado, bem como a frequência de ressacas por todo litoral. Na área de estudo, os registros datam da década de 1950 e, portanto, urge buscar meios eficientes para e evitar a chegada desses eventos ao litoral do Ceará e seus consequenrtes transtornos. A previsão e a prevenção devem ser definidas por meio de um estudo mais aprofundado conjuntamente com a interpretação dos parâmetros oceanográficos e sedimentológicos. O resultado esperado é identificação das principais causas que estão interferindo na dinâmica costeira do Município de Aquiraz.
ANALYSIS OF MARINE CATCHES OFF THE STATE OF SERGIPE (1950-2010)

Published: August 2018

O estado de Sergipe não dispõe de uma versão eletrônica oficial do banco de dados de estatística de captura disponível em boletins nacionais impressos. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho foi atualizar a parte referente ao estado de Sergipe de um banco de dados nacional eletrônico reconstruído, a fim de obter uma série histórica para 1950-2010, analisando a composição da captura com maior resolução taxonômica e estimando componentes ausentes da pesca. As capturas totais reconstruídas foram sempre mais elevadas do que as originais e indicaram um aumento nas capturas de 1950 a 1979. Nas décadas de 1980 and 1990, foi observada uma estabilização nas capturas, e uma queda de 2005 a 2010. As capturas foram extraídas quase exclusivamente pela frota artesanal. A melhor resolução taxonômica permitiu a identificação das seguintes espécies com as de maiores capturas em 2010 : Xiphopenaeus kroyeri, Mugil curema, Ucides cordatus, Goniopsis cruentata e Macrodon ancylodon . As capturas para essas espécies representaram cerca de 50% do total extraído em Sergipe em 2010. Capturas recreativas foram estimadas em 16 t em 2010, e descartes anuais em 818 t nas décadas de 1980 e 1990. Capturas ornamentais e de subsistência não foram estimadas. Nossa análise indicou que perdas taxonômicas foram observadas em duas etapas: quando dados locais são incorporados em um banco nacional e posteriormente, de um banco nacional para um internacional.
Evidence for a Minimum Ellipticity in Millisecond Pulsars
Authors: Woan G. , Pitkin M. D. , Haskell B. , Jones D. I. , Lasky P. D. 
Published: August 2018

Abstract
Neutron stars spin down over time due to a number of energy-loss processes. We provide tantalizing population-based evidence that millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have a minimum ellipticity of ϵ ≈ 10−9 around their spin axis and that, consequently, some spin down mostly through gravitational-wave emission. We discuss the implications of such a minimum ellipticity in terms of the internal magnetic field strengths and nuclear matter composition of neutron stars and show it would result in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave detectors, or their upgrades, detecting gravitational waves from some known MSPs in the near future.
L’impact du leadership « dysfonctionnel » sur les comportements contre-productifs des subordonnés : le cas des jeunes à faible capital scolaire
Authors: Dufour Lucas , Andiappan Meena 
Published: August 2018

À travers une étude qualitative s’appuyant sur la population des jeunes à faible capital scolaire (JFCS), nous avons constaté que les subordonnés pouvaient adopter des comportements qualifiés de contre-productifs par leurs supérieurs hiérarchiques du fait d’un leadership « dysfonctionnel ». Un leadership est défini comme « dysfonctionnel » lorsqu’un supérieur hiérarchique par incompétence et/ou par manque d’intérêt blesse de manière non intentionnelle ses subordonnés. Ce leadership « dysfonctionnel » est susceptible de générer chez les subordonnés un manque d’autonomie, du stress ou une injustice perçue, qui peuvent entraîner l’adoption de comportements contre-productifs.
L’opportunité entrepreneuriale au cœur d’un processus de réflexion et d’action
Authors: Degeorge Jean-Michel , Fayolle Alain , Randerson Kathleen 
Published: August 2018

Parmi les interrogations qui persistent sur l’opportunité entrepreneuriale (Shane, 2012 ; Venkataraman et al., 2012 ; Alvarez et al., 2013), certaines concernent le style cognitif de l’entrepreneur (Cardon et al., 2009) et son processus de décision (Sarasvathy, 2001). L’identification d’une opportunité est souvent associée à un style cognitif analytique alors même qu’un individu peut par ailleurs être guidé par son intuition et un processus de décision effectual afin de construire une opportunité. Avec une étude qualitative auprès de neuf entreprises, nous étudions le lien éventuel entre le processus de formation de l’opportunité (identification ou construction), le style cognitif de l’entrepreneur (intuitif ou analytique) et le processus de décision mis en œuvre (causal ou effectual). Nos résultats montrent que la relation n’est pas systématique et que l’industrie et la position de l’entreprise sur le secteur d’activité sont déterminantes.

Recherches sur l’embryon et les cellules souches embryonnaires : les citoyens sont-ils passés à côté des véritables enjeux ?
Authors: Bourdaire-Mignot Camille , Gründler Tatiana 
Published: August 2018

Interdite purement et simplement dans les premières lois bioéthiques de 1994, la recherche sur l’embryon a fait l’objet d’évolutions juridiques importantes depuis : elle est passée d’un régime d’interdiction – avec dérogations – à partir de 2004, à un régime d’autorisation – strictement encadré – en 20131. Les États généraux de 2018 fournissent l’occasion de rediscuter la pertinence de telles recherches, dévoilant que l’embryon demeure un sujet extrêmement sensible qui soulève en outre des questions supposant de bonnes connaissances techniques pour être sérieusement débattues. Il n’est dès lors pas certain que ce moment de démocratie ait permis, malgré une participation relativement significative de la population, d’appréhender les potentialités médicales de ces recherches et les enjeux éthiques qui s’y rattachent.
