(2) some courses were highly theoretical With little practice (3) the program did not include scientific administrative skills, (4) the importance of training school principals periodically to let them be aware of new trends in their g field, finally (5) the program needs periodical review to be updated and keep up with current development.
Hardiness Behavior and Organizational Loyalty of Government Secondary School Teachers in Palestine
Authors: Hilo Ghassan H. 
Published: August 2017

The purpose of this study was to a) investigate hardiness behavior and organizational loyalty levels among secondary school teachers in the northern districts of the West Bank in Palestine and b) determine the effect of teachers’ gender and years of experience. The sample consisted of 396 male and female secondary school teachers, which were selected randomly from the target population. The questionnaire used in the study contained 42 items on hardiness behavior domain and 28 items for organizational loyalty domain. The results indicated that there was a moderate level of hardiness behavior among teachers (68.6%). Also, the results revealed that there were statistically significant differences due to gender and years of experience in commitment and participation items in favor of longer teaching experience. There were also statistically significant differences due to gender, and interaction between gender and years of experience, in control items in favor of males with longer teaching experience. There were significant differences due to years of experience, and interaction between gender and years of experience in the overall degree of hardiness behavior, in favor of longer teaching experience. There were significant differences due to gender and years of experience in the overall degree of organizational loyalty domain in favor of females with longer teaching experience. The researcher recommended the reinforcement of hardiness behavior and organizational loyalty levels among Palestinian teachers.
Feminising Schools in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, UAE: Cause for Concern!
Authors: Dickson Martina , Roux Johann Le 
Published: August 2017

Schools in the UAE have been undergoing radical educational reform over the past six years. Government schools are currently gender segregated from grade 1 and staffed by either male or female teachers, but not by both genders in the same school. In 2011 the Abu Dhabi Educational Council (ADEC) announced plans to completely feminise primary schools in the emirate. Emirati male teachers represent a small minority, but one which potentially has a very powerful significance, both culturally and educationally. This paper intends to explore male pre-service teachers’ perceptions of this issue. Six male Emirati pre-service teachers were interviewed. Our findings show that during internship, they felt that their being male and Emirati was significant and positive, and that pupils were relating to them in a unique way as a result. We found that all had been extremely positively influenced by an Emirati male teacher as school pupils. Most thought that employing a system of feminization would be detrimental to young males seeking male role models and gave examples of the way in which they had observed this. The findings of this small-scale study have potentially significant implications for educational policy-makers in Abu Dhabi and other regions in the Gulf considering school feminization.
The Effect of Prior Knowledge of Behavioral Objectives on the Immediate and Postponed Student Academic Achievement in National Education
Authors: Khader Fakhri R. 
Published: August 2017

This study aimed to explore the effect of prior knowledge of behavioral objectives on the immediate and postponed academic achievement. The study was conducted on Petra University students in the subject of National Education. The levels of learning objectives were: recall, understanding, and application. The study sample consisted of 140 male and female students divided into 4 sections that were chosen randomly. The sample was divided into two groups: the experimental group consisted of 72 male and female students which were provided with behavioral objectives prior to the teaching process and thecontrol group consisted of 68 male and female students which weren't provided with behavioral objectives. For the purpose of achieving the objectives of this study, a list of learning objectives was prepared and a tool for assessing the immediate and postponed academic achievement in the subject of national education was administered. The two tools enjoyed acceptable validity and reliability estimates. The results revealed statistically significant differences on the immediate and postponed academic achievement at the levels of recall, understanding and application; and the immediate and postponed academic achievement in general in favors of the experimental group.

Authors: Al-Bereiki Sheikha A. , Al-Mekhlafi Abdo M. 
Published: August 2017

The purpose of this study was to explore the types of spelling errors students of grade ten make and to find out whether there were any significant differences between males and fe- males with respect to the types of spelling errors made. The sample of the study included 90 grade ten students from four different schools in North Batinah. The researchers manipulated the use of a test that consisted of two questions: an oral dictation test of 70 words with a contex- tualizing sentence and a free writing task. The misspellings were classified into nine different types. The findings revealed that the most common spelling errors among Omani grade ten stu- dents were vowel substitution, then came vowel omission in the second place and consonant substitution in the third place. Male students omitted more vowels than female students while females made more true word errors than their male counterparts. In light of the findings, the study presents some recommendations and suggestions for further studies.

Published: August 2017

Kurzfassung
Die Sicherstellung von kurzen Durchlaufzeiten wird in der Instandhaltung hochwertiger Investitionsgüter typischerweise durch Komplexitäts-treiber wie die Informationsunschärfe erschwert. Die termingerechte Planung und Steuerung von Aufträgen ist für Instandhaltungsdienstleis-ter von Flugzeugtriebwerken in der Folge ein wesentlicher Erfolgsfaktor, um Kundenziele wie eine hohe Verfügbarkeit der Flotte bei einem niedrigen Bestand von Ersatztriebwerken zu gewährleisten. Einen Ansatz zur Gestaltung von Verfahrenskonfigurationen der Planung und Steuerung, welche logistische Zielgrößen wie Durchlaufzeit und Termintreue sicherstellen, kann die ereignisdiskrete Simulation darstellen. Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, als Grundlage für eine simulationsgestützte Verfahrenskonfiguration ein geeignetes Prozessmodell der Triebwerksüberholung herzuleiten, welches die konfigurationsrelevanten Spezifika und Restriktionen in einem hinreichenden Abstraktionsgrad abbildet.

Published: August 2017

Premise of the study:Microsatellites were developed for the future assessment of population genetic structure, mating system, and dispersal of the perennial kangaroo paw, Anigozanthos manglesii (Haemodoraceae), and related species.Methods and Results:Using a Personal Genome Machine (PGM) semiconductor sequencer, ca. 4.03 million sequence reads were generated. QDD pipeline software was used to identify 190,000 microsatellite‐containing regions and priming sites. From these, 90 were chosen and screened using PCR, and 15 polymorphic markers identified. These sites amplified di‐, tri‐, and pentanucleotide repeats with one to 20 alleles per locus. Primers were also amplified across congeners A. bicolor, A. flavidus, A. gabrielae, A. humilis, A. preissii, A. pulcherrimus, A. rufus, and A. viridis to assess cross‐species transferability.Conclusions:These markers provide a resource for population genetic studies in A. manglesii and other species within the genus.
New Orbits Based on Speckle Interferometry at SOAR. II.*
Authors: Tokovinin Andrei 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
Orbits of 44 close and fast visual binaries are computed using the latest speckle observations; 23 orbits are determined for the first time, and the rest are revisions, some of those substantial. Six combined orbits use radial velocities. The median period is 15.6 years, and the shortest period is one year. Most stars are nearby late-type dwarfs. Dynamical parallaxes and estimates of the masses are derived from the orbital elements and the photometry of the components.
Zoom-in Simulations of Protoplanetary Disks Starting from GMC Scales
Authors: Kuffmeier Michael , Haugbølle Troels , Nordlund Åke 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
We investigate the formation of protoplanetary disks around nine solar-mass stars formed in the context of a (40 pc)3 Giant Molecular Cloud model, using ramses adaptive mesh refinement simulations extending over a scale range of about 4 million, from an outer scale of 40 pc down to cell sizes of 2 au. Our most important result is that the accretion process is heterogeneous in multiple ways: in time, in space, and among protostars of otherwise similar mass. Accretion is heterogeneous in time, in the sense that accretion rates vary during the evolution, with generally decreasing profiles, whose slopes vary over a wide range, and where accretion can increase again if a protostar enters a region with increased density and low speed. Accretion is heterogeneous in space, because of the mass distribution, with mass approaching the accreting star–disk system in filaments and sheets. Finally, accretion is heterogeneous among stars, since the detailed conditions and dynamics in the neighborhood of each star can vary widely. We also investigate the sensitivity of disk formation to physical conditions and test their robustness by varying numerical parameters. We find that disk formation is robust even when choosing the least favorable sink particle parameters, and that turbulence cascading from larger scales is a decisive factor in disk formation. We also investigate the transport of angular momentum, finding that the net inward mechanical transport is compensated for mainly by an outward-directed magnetic transport, with a contribution from gravitational torques usually subordinate to the magnetic transport.
Signatures of Hot Molecular Hydrogen Absorption from Protoplanetary Disks. I. Non-thermal Populations
Authors: Hoadley Keri , France Kevin , Arulanantham Nicole , Loyd R. O. Parke , Kruczek Nicholas 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
The environment around protoplanetary disks (PPDs) regulates processes that drive the chemical and structural evolution of circumstellar material. We perform a detailed empirical survey of warm molecular hydrogen (H2) absorption observed against H i-Lyα (Lyα: λ1215.67) emission profiles for 22 PPDs, using archival Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet (UV) spectra to identify H2 absorption signatures and quantify the column densities of H2 ground states in each sightline. We compare thermal equilibrium models of H2 to the observed H2 rovibrational level distributions. We find that, for the majority of targets, there is a clear deviation in high-energy states (T
exc ≳ 20,000 K) away from thermal equilibrium populations (T(H2) ≳ 3500 K). We create a metric to estimate the total column density of non-thermal H2 (N(H2)nLTE) and find that the total column densities of thermal (N(H2)) and N(H2)nLTE correlate for transition disks and targets with detectable C iv-pumped H2 fluorescence. We compare N(H2) and N(H2)nLTE to circumstellar observables and find that N(H2)nLTE correlates with X-ray and far-UV luminosities, but no correlations are observed with the luminosities of discrete emission features (e.g., Lyα, C iv). Additionally, N(H2) and N(H2)nLTE are too low to account for the H2 fluorescence observed in PPDs, so we speculate that this H2 may instead be associated with a diffuse, hot, atomic halo surrounding the planet-forming disk. We create a simple photon-pumping model for each target to test this hypothesis and find that Lyα efficiently pumps H2 levels with T
exc ≥ 10,000 K out of thermal equilibrium.
Dusty Gas Accretion onto Massive Black Holes and Infrared Diagnosis of the Eddington Ratio

Published: August 2017

Abstract
Evidence for dust around supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in the early universe is strongly suggested by recent observations. However, the accretion mechanism of SMBHs in dusty gas is not well understood yet. We investigate the growth of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) of

in dusty clouds by using one-dimensional radiative-hydrodynamics simulations. We find that the accretion of dusty gas onto IMBHs proceeds gently with small fluctuations of the accretion rate, whereas that of pristine gas causes more violent periodic bursts. At dust-to-gas mass ratios similar to the solar neighborhood, the time-averaged luminosity becomes smaller than that for primordial gas by one order of magnitude and the time-averaged Eddington ratio ranges from

to

in clouds with initial gas densities of

. Our calculations show that the effect of dust opacity alone is secondary compared to the radiation pressure on dust in regulating the BH growth. We also derive spectral energy distributions at IR bands by calculating dust thermal emission and show that the flux ratio between

and

is closely related to the Eddington ratio. Thermal emission from hot dust near the BH dominates only during the phase of high accretion, producing higher flux density at

. Therefore, we suggest that a combination of mid-IR observations by the James Webb Space Telescope and far-IR observations by ALMA or Spitzer can be used to estimate the Eddington ratio of massive BHs. We also extend our simple modeling to SMBHs of

Axion as a Cold Dark Matter Candidate: Proof to Fully Nonlinear Order
Authors: Noh Hyerim , Hwang Jai-chan , Park Chan-Gyung 
Published: August 2017

Abstract
We present proof of the axion as a cold dark matter (CDM) candidate to the fully nonlinear order perturbations based on Einstein’s gravity. We consider the axion as a coherently oscillating massive classical scalar field without interaction. We present the fully nonlinear and exact, except for ignoring the transverse-tracefree tensor-type perturbation, hydrodynamic equations for an axion fluid in Einstein’s gravity. We show that the axion has the characteristic pressure and anisotropic stress; the latter starts to appear from the second-order perturbation. But these terms do not directly affect the hydrodynamic equations in our axion treatment. Instead, what behaves as the effective pressure term in relativistic hydrodynamic equations is the perturbed lapse function and the relativistic result coincides exactly with the one known in the previous non-relativistic studies. The effective pressure term leads to a Jeans scale that is of the solar-system scale for conventional axion mass. As the fully nonlinear and relativistic hydrodynamic equations for an axion fluid coincide exactly with the ones of a zero-pressure fluid in the super-Jeans scale, we have proved the CDM nature of such an axion in that scale.
