Authors: Putro Trias Setyo 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
Pondok Pesantren is a kind of Islamic boarding schools that often to be heard in Indonesia and one of the uniqueness of Islamic education in the world. Nevertheless, the researcher found another fact when the researcher got a teaching practice abroad during six months. The researcher found the existence of pondok pesantren in Thailand. Generally, Thailand is Buddhist majority except several provinces in Southern Thailand, which border to Malaysia. They are Narathiwat, Pattani, Yala, Nakhon Sri Thammarat, and a part of Songkhla. Those provinces are majority Muslims. Considering from the fact above, it could not be ignored the educational concept that offered to the young generation at those areas largely have a basic of Islam. The main question will appear to know more about the Islamic education system, especially about the Pondok Pesantren in overseas. In this case, the object of the research is determined in Pondok Songserm Islam Wittaya, Takamcham Sub-district, Nong Chik Regency, Pattani province, Southern Thailand.

Pondok Pesantren adalah jenis lembaga pendidikan Islam yang sering kita dengar di Indonesia dan menjadi salah satu keunikan tersendiri dalam dunia pendidikan Islam. Namun, peneliti menemukan fakta lain ketika mendapat kesempatan untuk praktek mengajar di luar negeri selama enam bulan. Peneliti menemukan keberadaan pondok pesantren di Thailand. Padanya umumnya, Thailand adalah negara dengan mayoritas berpenduduk agama Budha, kecuali beberapa provinsi di bagian selatan Thailand yang berdekatan dengan Malaysia. Diantaranya ialah provinsi Narathiwat, Pattani, Yala, Nakhon Sri Thammarat, dan sebagin daerah Songkhla. Provinsi tersebut dihuni oleh penduduk mayoritas Muslim. Ditinjau dari keadaan penduduk yang demikian, maka tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa pendidikan yang ditawarkan bagi generasi muda di wilayah-wilayah tersebut kebanyakan berbasis Islam. Pertanyaan utama akan muncul untuk mengetahui lebih jauh mengenai sistem pendidikan Islam, utamanya mengenai pondok pesantren di luar negeri. Dalam kasus ini, obyek penelitian telah ditentukan di Pondok Songserm Islam Wittaya, kecamatan Takamcham, kabupaten Nong Chik, provinsi Pattani, Thailand Selatan.

Published: January 2018

Abstract
Indonesia is a country which not only consists of various tribes, ethnicity and religions, but also established on multi-cultural element. The plurality, on one hand, is a social strength and a wonderful aspect of diversity if each of those aspects makes synergy and works together to build the nation. On the other hand, the plurality, if it is not managed and nurtured properly, will trigger and ignite a conflict and violence that could destabilize the joints of the state and nation. In this case, Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) has a strategic role in building a moderate Indonesian Muslim community because NU offers a model of integration, namely the integration of Islam into nationalism. It is the integration of Islamic visions of life into the main objectives of the establishment of nation-states. The idea departs from the principle of al-Ghayah wa al-Wasail (the objectives and the methods) that NU puts the state as an instrument for achieving the goal of Islam. Thus, since the aim of Islam is Rahmatan lil ‘Alamin (welfare of the universe), the state that leads to the goal can be accepted, though not in the form of Islamic state. NU’s concept in the transformation of education among moderate Muslim society accentuates on the principle of tasamuh (tolerance), tawazun (balance), and i’tidal (just). These three concepts will form the Indonesian Islamic community that is tolerant, peaceful and Rahmatan lil ‘Alamin for the life of the nation.

Abstrak
Indonesia merupakan negara yang tidak saja multi suku, etnik dan agama, tetapi juga multi budaya. Kemajemukan tersebut pada satu sisi merupakan kekuatan sosial dan keragaman yang indah apabila satu sama lain bersinergi dan saling bekerja sama untuk membangun bangsa. Namun, pada sisi lain, kemajemukan tersebut apabila tidak dikelola dan dibina dengan tepat akan menjadi pemicu dan penyulut konflik dan kekerasan yang dapat menggoyahkan sendi-sendi kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara. Nahdlatul Ulama berperan strategis dalam membangun masyarakat Islam Indonesia moderat. Sebab NU telah menawarkan model integrasi, yakni integrasi Islam ke dalam nasionalisme. Integrasi visi Islam tentang kehidupan ke dalam tujuan utama pendirian negara-bangsa. Hal ini berangkat dari kaidah al-ghayah wa al-wasail (tujuan dan metode) bahwa NU menempatkan negara sebagai alat bagi pencapaian tujuan Islam. Maka, karena tujuan Islam adalah rahmatan lil ‘alamin (kesejahteraan bagi semesta), negara yang mengarah ke tujuan tersebut bisa diterima, meskipun tidak berbentuk Islam. Konsep NU dalam transformasi pendidikan masyarakat Islam moderat dengan menekankan pada prinsip tasamuh, tawazun dan i’tidal. Tiga konsep ini yang akan membentuk masyarakat Islam Indonesia yang toleran, damai dan rahmatan lil’alamin bagi kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara.

Phylogeny and cocoon production in the parasitic leech Myzobdella lugubris Leidy, 1851 (Hirudinidae, Piscicolidae)
Authors: Saglam Naim , Saunders Ralph , Lang Shirley A. , Shain Daniel H. 
Published: January 2018

AbstractMyzobdella lugubrisis a commensal leech on crustaceans and a parasite to fishes, surviving predominantly in brackish waters throughout North America. Specimens in this study were collected within the tidal zone of the Delaware River basin (New Jersey and Pennsylvania). To compare regionalM.lugubrisspecimens, defined characters were scored after dorsal and ventral dissections, and phylogenetic relationships were resolved using cytochromecoxidase subunit 1 (CO1), 12S ribosomal RNA (rDNA) and 18S rDNA gene fragments. Variance between regional populations was low, suggesting recent dispersal events and/or strong evolutionary constraints. The reproductive biology ofM.lugubriswas explored by quantitative analysis of secreted cocoons. Specimens produced 32.67 ± 4.50 cocoons with fertilization ratios of 88.1% and hatching times of 48 ± 7 days at 17°C under laboratory conditions. At 22°C, 46 ± 28 cocoons were produced with fertilization ratios of 70.27% and hatching times of 28 ± 5 days. Surprisingly, each cocoon supported only one embryo, which is unusual among oligochaetes.
Molecular and morphological characterisation of Rhabdias picardiae Junker, Lhermitte-Vallarino et Bain, 2010 (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae) from Delaland’s River Frog, Amietia delalandii (Duméril et Bibron, 1841) (Amphibia: Pyxicephalidae) in South Africa

Published: January 2018

Abstract
Rhabdias picardiae previously known from the Guttural Toad, Sclerophrys gutturalis (Bufonidae) is described from a new host, Delaland’s River Frog, Amietia delalandii (Pyxicephalidae). The species identification is confirmed by analysis of the COI gene sequence and morphological comparison with the original description. Morphological details of apical structures in adult parasitic R. picardiae, namely, the shape and position of lips, the number and position of external labial papillae, and the buccal capsule morphology are described using light and scanning electron microscopy. The buccal capsule width and length, the distance from anterior end to nerve ring and excretory pore, and ratios of distance to vulva to body length and body length to width were identified as less variable metrical characters in the studied sample of 30 specimens. Adult specimens demonstrated differences in the position of lips in relation to the oral opening and position of the buccal capsule in relation to the oesophagus depending on the size (age) of worms. The infective larvae of R. picardiae are described for the first time and characterised by two lateral alae consisting of two ridges, triangular pseudolabia with rounded tops, and presence of ornamentation on the rounded tail tip.
Characterization of phosphate transporter(s) and understanding their role in Leishmania donovani parasite
Authors: Sindhu K.J. , Kureel Amit Kumar , Saini Sheetal , Kumari Smita , Verma Pankaj , Rai Ambak Kumar 
Published: January 2018

AbstractInorganic phosphate (Pi) is shown to be involved in excretion of methylglyoxal (MG) in the promastigote form ofLeishmania donovaniparasite. Absence of Pi leads to its accumulation inside the parasite. Accumulation of MG is toxic to the parasite and utilizes glyoxylase as well as excretory pathways for its detoxification. In addition, Pi is also reported to regulate activities of ectoenzymes and energy metabolism (glucose to pyruvate) etc. Thus, it is known to cumulatively affect the growth ofLeishmaniaparasite. Hence the transporters, which allow the movement of Pi across the membrane, can prove to be a crucial drug target. Therefore, we characterized two phosphate transporters inLeishmania(i) H+dependent myo-inositol transporter (LdPHO84), and (ii) Na+dependent transporter (LdPHO89), based on similar studies done previously on other lower organisms and trypanosomatids. We tried to understand the secondary structure of these two proteins and confirm modulation in their expression with the change in Pi concentration outside. Moreover, their modes of action were also measured in the presence of specific inhibitors (LiF, CCCP). Further analysis on the physiological role of these transporters in various stages of the parasite life cycle needs to be entrenched.
Metazoan parasite fauna of migrating common garfish, Belone belone (L.), in the Baltic Sea
Authors: Unger Patrick , Neubert Kilian , Palm Harry W. 
Published: January 2018

AbstractA total of 35 common garfish,Belone belone(Linnaeus, 1761), were studied for metazoan parasites on their spawning grounds in the western Baltic Sea. Nine parasite species were found, and six new locality records could be established for German coastal waters (Axine belones, Monogenea;Proteocephalussp., Cestoda;Anisakis simplex(s.s.),Contracaecum rudolphiiA andHysterothylacium aduncum, Nematoda;Echinorhynchus gadi, Acanthocephala). For the first time, the marine ectoparasite A.beloneswas recorded from the gills of garfish inside the Baltic Sea, indicating its ability to survive the spawning migration as well as the brackish water conditions at its reproduction grounds. This is alike the endohelminthA.simplex(s.s.), that was identified by molecular analyses of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS-1, 5.8S, ITS-2) region. Almost all isolated metazoans were parasites commonly recorded from the northeast Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea. The lower number of typical generalist Baltic Sea parasites indicates the rapid migration of common garfish onto the spawning grounds, reducing the access and uptake of these species.
Measurement of binding strength between prey proteins interacting with Toxoplasma gondii SAG1 and SAG2 using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC)
Authors: Lai Meng-Yee , Lau Yee-Ling 
Published: January 2018

AbstractFollowing the outcome from a previously performed yeast two-hybrid experiment, the binding strength betweenT.gondiiSAG1 and SAG2 and their respective prey proteins were further confirmed in this study. Thesag1,sag2and their prey genes were amplified and cloned into a pGEMT vector. To express the recombinant proteins, the fragments were then subcloned into a pRSETA vector and transformed intoE.coliBL21 (DE3) cells. The recombinant proteins were expressed optimally at 37°C and 1mM of IPTG. The 6X His-tag fusion proteins were purified, dialyzed and concentrated. To confirm the expressed proteins, the recombinant proteins were analysed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. As expected, the size of SAG1, SAG2, HLY and HZF protein were 32, 23, 28 and 37 kDa, respectively. The purified proteins were loaded onto a MicroCal Auto-iTC200calorimeter from MicroCal™ to quantify binding strength. ITC results indicated there was a typical binding curve for interactions between SAG1 and HLY protein. However, there was an atypical binding curve obtained for interactions between SAG2 and HZF protein. By observing the data obtained from the ITC assay, both of the human proteins (HLY and HZF) were demonstrated to bind to their respective SAG1 and SAG2 proteins.
Nematode parasites of Duttaphrynus stomaticus (Lutken, 1864) (Amphibia: Anura) with description of a new species of Rhabdias Stiles and Hassall, 1905 (Nematoda: Rhabdiasidae) from Dehradun (Uttarakhand), India

Abstract
Rhabdias stomatica sp. nov. from the lungs of Duttaphrynus stomaticus (Lutken, 1864) from Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India is described and illustrated. Rhabdias stomatica sp. nov. is the 16th species described from the Oriental biogeographical region and the 8th species from India. The new species is differentiated from the closely related Oriental species in having 4 weakly developed lips, a trapezoidal shaped buccal cavity, different position of nerve ring and in the esophagus/body length ratio. In addition, to the new species found in the lungs, mature specimens of Aplectana macintoshii (Stewart, 1914) Travassos, 1931 and larvae representing two unidentified species of nematode were found in the large intestine of the D. stomaticus.
How interactional needs shape information structure: An analysis of the discourse functions of topicalization in three L2 varieties of English
Authors: Leuckert Sven 
Published: January 2018

AbstractTopicalization refers to the sentence-initial placement of constituents other than the subject (see, e.g., Lambrecht 1994; Birner & Ward 2009) and has recently gained more attention in particular with regard to its frequency, forms, and functions in L2 and learner varieties of English (cf. Lange 2012; Winkle 2015; Leuckert 2017). Specific interactional needs, such as the intention of establishing topic continuity in the discourse, may motivate speakers to deviate from the canonical SVX pattern of English sentences. Furthermore, speakers may choose to emphasize or contrast information which has not previously been mentioned in the discourse. Therefore, this paper argues that cognitive, pragmatic, emotiveaffective, and social factors (cf. Schmid 2016) all play an important role for topicalization, but certain communicative goals may lead to speakers ignoring the cognitive status of information by topicalizing brand-new or unused information. Furthermore, it is shown in this paper that topicalized constituents which serve to create topic continuity (and are, therefore, highly salient in the discourse) tend to persist longer in the subsequent discourse than topicalized constituents which serve other discourse functions.
Cognitive cultural models at work: The case of German-speaking Switzerland
Authors: Studler Rebekka 
Published: January 2018

AbstractIn the German-speaking part of Switzerland, people use Swiss German and High German side by side in their daily life. This situation gives rise to various attitudes towards both of these two varieties. Interestingly, some of these attitudes seem to be partly in conflict. The aim of this paper is to show that these attitudes are not necessarily conflicted but rather that such attitudes normally have a multidimensional character. Multidimensional attitudes can be traced back to multidimensional mental models on which people naturally draw. In applying Berthele’s (2010) cluster model, which combines Geeraerts’s (2003) rationalist and romantic models for standardization, the paper illustrates, based on a recent study, which mental models have to be operative to conceptualize the complex frames of the two varieties in use. Additionally, recent shifts in the attitudinal climate in Switzerland indicate that these cognitive cultural models are not static but are subject to dynamic processes.
Cognitive descriptions in a corpus-based dictionary of German paronyms
Authors: Storjohann Petra 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThis paper discusses changes of lexicographic traditions with respect to approaches to meaning descriptions towards more cognitive perspectives. I will uncover how cognitive aspects can be incorporated into meaning descriptions based on corpus-driven analysis. The new German Online dictionary “Paronyme − Dynamisch im Kontrast” (Storjohann 2014; 2016) is concerned with easily confused words such as effektiv/effizient, sensibel/sensitiv. It is currently in the process of being developed and it aims at adopting a more conceptual and encyclopaedic approach to meaning by incorporating cognitive features. As a corpus-guided reference work it strives to adequately reflect ideas such as conceptual structure, categorisation and knowledge. Contrastive entries emphasise aspects of usage, comparing conceptual categories and indicate the (metonymic) mapping of knowledge. Adaptable access to lexicographic details and variable search options offer different foci and perspectives on linguistic information, and authentic examples reflect prototypical structures. Some of the cognitive features are demonstrated with the help of examples. Firstly, I will outline how patterns of usage imply conceptual categories as central ideas instead of sufficiently logical criteria of semantic distinction. In this way, linguistic findings correlate better with how users conceptualise language. Secondly, it is pointed out how collocates are treated as family members and fillers in contexts. Thirdly, I will demonstrate how contextual structure and functions are included summarising referential information. Details are drawn from corpus data, they are usage-based linguistic patterns illustrating conversational interaction and semantic negotiations in contemporary public discourse. Finally, I will outline consultation routines which activate different facets of structural knowledge, e.g. through changes of the ordering of information or through the visualisation of semantic networks.
Networks of meanings: Complementing collostructional analysis by cluster and network analyses
Authors: Dekalo Volodymyr , Hampe Beate 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThis paper contributes to the development of collostructional analysis by taking up one of the long-standing issues in collostructional analysis, viz. the assessment and interpretation of the collexeme lists created. It uses the DWDS corpus documenting 20th century written German to study two modalverb constructions which contain either vermögen or bekommen as the first verb plus an infinitive. When expressing ‘possibility’/‘capability’, these constructions compete with the ubiquitous and strongly grammaticalized könnenconstruction. To compare their constructional semantics, the paper combines collostructional analyses with a close investigation of the verbal meanings characterizing their V
Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) of waterlogged archaeological wood at room temperature
Authors: Pizzo Benedetto , Pecoraro Elisa , Lazzeri Simona 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThe viscoelastic properties of waterlogged wood (WLW) were investigated via dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) at room temperature and under water saturated conditions, aiming at the investigation of the relationships between viscoelasticity and chemical composition. Different softwoods (SWs) and hardwoods (HWs) from several archaeological sites were sampled, which had different levels of decay (from highly-decayed to little changed). The analytical methods included lignin and holocellulose determination by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, moisture content (MC), basic density (BD), micromorphological observations, and the DMA was performed in three-point bending and submersion mode. Both HWs and SWs showed an exponential decrease of both storage modulus (E′) and loss modulus (E″), which are related to the amount of crystalline and paracrystalline cellulose left in the cell wall, respectively. The ratio E″/E′ (tanδ) varied with the frequency in different ways depending on the preservation state of the samples. Less decayed material had a higher tanδ than the fresh reference wood and lower (or similar) tanδ in the case of highly decayed samples. Accordingly, the long-term behaviour under a certain sustained load of WLW is decay dependent.

AbstractProblem: Preparing health professional students for interprofessional collaborative practice, especially at a distance where provider shortages prevail remains difficult.Approach: A two-week interprofessional education (IPE) immersion experience preparing students from 11 disciplines and four universities was implemented. Week-one, using online technology, students develop/present an interprofessional careplan for a complex patient. Students then meet face-to-face to conduct group interviews with two standardized patient dyads. Week-two, students develop a website for use of the patient dyads. Websites are presented to faculty and fellow students via an online virtual meeting space.Outcomes: To date, 594 students have participated demonstrating capacity to: 1.effectively engage in interprofessional care,  2. utilize Telehealth to impact care and break down barriers of isolation, and 3. implement skills to advance healthcare.Conclusion: IPE combined with Telehealth technology provides future providers with knowledge and skills for interprofessional care regardless of geographic barriers.Next Step: Integrate more technology using mobile devices and enhance the evaluation process.
Is There a There There? Responding to Mythologies that Hamper Multicultural and Global Education
Authors: Obiakor Festus E. 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
The United States of America is currently experiencing some socio-political problems. These problems stem from myriad mythologies and assumptions that have created labels, categories, stereotypes, and generalizations. While they are not uncommon in many communities and societies all over the world, in the United States, they have exposed intense divisions, xenophobia, racism, White supremacy, and close-mindedness. To a large measure, we now live in fears and anger; and we are literally losing our soul as the greatest democracy in the world. Not surprisingly, our adversary, Russia took advantage of these mythologies to meddle in our 2016 democratic Presidential election. As a result, many are asking, Is there a there there? In this article, I respond to this question by looking into these mythologies. In addition, I suggest ways for educators and leaders to foster multicultural and global education and buttress human valuing and interactions at classroom, school, college/university, community, state, national, and world-wide levels.
