“Kwesukasukela”- From many, many millet granaries ago to Once upon a time: Ubuntu’s 21 century skills intermingled with oral traditional storytelling
Creators: name: Duarte, Suzette
Publisher: name: Sensos-e
Year: 2018

description: The cynosure of this paper is to discuss the implementation of the Gamification pedagogy in the primary English learning context which may help to foster the development of 21st century skills (Cruz & Orange, 2016) and by also targeting on the Ubuntu’s philosophy which can be engaged within African oral tradition storytelling as a means of transformation and of accommodating diversity to foster social cohesion and sustainable development (Battiste, 2005; Themane, et al., 2011). An ethnographic methodological approach has been resorted to by including quizzes, project development and the expansion of creative and collaborative critical thinking skills. Results show the intermingling of gamified tasks with oral traditional storytelling requires a spiral curriculum for pupils’ enhancement, while embodying a learning community which provides a safety net for pupils’ exploration and practice. The main results show that the gamification approach can assist in the progression of dialogue, can promote critical cultural awareness and can expedite pupil’s cognitive and affective enthrallment and engagement, whereby fostering the development of 21st century skills (Shatz, 2015; Cruz, & Orange, 2016).

 COMMENTS: Zimmer cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and listed the specimens he examined. The following specimens are paratypes: Cerro Munchique, Coast Range west of Popayan, AMNH 110253–110255, 110257, 110259, 110260, 110262, 110265, four males, three females, one sex?; Cocal, AMNH 110266, female; Salento, AMNH 113036, male; above Salento, AMNH 113035, female; Retiro, AMNH 509056, sex?; La Florida, AMNH 110263, 110264, male, female; El Eden, AMNH 113037–113040, 113042, 113043, one male, five females; La Sierra, AMNH 117377, 117378, male, female; Santa Elena, AMNH 134400 bis, 134409, 134410, 134413, 134415, 134416, 154506, three males, three females, one sex?; Nóvita Trail, AMNH 113034, sex?; Medellin, AMNH 509454, 509055, male, female; Antioquia, AMNH 110810, sex? In three cases, the paratypes bear two AMNH numbers. They had been exchanged to the BIM and when, in November 1935, the BIM collection of birds was donated to AMNH, those specimens were renumbered. The three specimens, followed by their BIM and later AMNH nos. are: AMNH 110257 (12948, 441237), AMNH 113040 (12947, 441240), AMNH 113042 (12946, 441239). The paratypes cited here vary slightly in number from those given by Zimmer, but all of them were in AMNH when annectens was described, all are labeled annectens by Zimmer, and all are from localities cited by him.

Man long taon : migration and differentiation amongst the To'ambaita, Solomon Islands
Creators: name: Frazer, Ian Leonard
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981
Subjects: subject: Migration, Internal Solomon Islands

description: The To'ambaita people of North-West Malaita,upon whom this study is based, are already well known in the anthropological literature through the work of Ian Hogbin who did fieldwork on Malaita in 1933 (Hogbin, 1939). The monograph he wrote, Exnerirnents in Civilization, addresses itself directly to the many changes - political, economic and religious - then taking place amongst the To'ambaita after more than half a century of European contact. The fieldwork for this study took place between 1971 and 1976, during three trips to the Solomon Islands. Originally .. my main concern was the understanding of socio-economic, change on Malaita, taking into account the numerous.events affecting the To'ambaita in the nearly four decades between this period and the time of Hogbin's work. Amongst other things, major policy changes instituted by the British Administration immediately following the war (Bathgate, 1975), introduced an era of planned development specifically directed at village agriculture and village economic relations. A major concern of my original study was to provide a better understanding of the transformations taking place at the village level.

T y p e m a t e r i a l Holotype, Sabah, Danum Valley, B.R.L., f.i.t., 14-16.II.2007, G. de Rougemont leg. (CROU).
D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 1.8 mm. Body shiny, yellowish-red, posterior half of the elytra brown, pygidium yellow, antennae brown with the two basal antennomeres and base of the third yellow. Second antennomere as long as the first, third shorter than the second, fourth to tenth transverse. Eyes longer than the postocular region in dorsal view. Body devoid of reticulation. Puncturation of the head very superficial and evident, absent on the mid-longitudinal median band. Puncturation of the pronotum obsolescent. Granulation of the elytra very superficial. Spermatheca: Fig. 77.
 C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: In the shape of the spermatheca the new species is similar to B. crassiuscula (KRAATZ, 1859) from Sri Lanka, of which I have examined 7 specimens of the type series labelled " Ceylon, J. Nietner, Homalota crassiuscula KRAATZ " (DEI). The new species can be distinguished from B. crassiuscula by the intermediary portion of the spermatheca, between the distal bulb and appendix of the proximal bulb, which is about as long as the maximum width of the distal bulb, whereas this intermediary portion of the spermatheca is absent in B. crassiuscula. B. subadunca PACE, 2002 from Borneo has the intermediary portion of the spermatheca shorter than the maximum width of the distal bulb of the spermatheca.
E t y m o l o g y: The new species takes its name from the Danum Valley.

description: In this paper, we construct a class of spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic (AFM) two-chain ladder models consisting of blocks of n-spin tetrahedral clusters alternating with two-spin rungs. For n=4 and 6 and in extended parameter regimes, the exact ground state of the ladder is shown to be a product of the ground states of the rungs and the n-spin blocks, in both zero and finite magnetic fields. In the latter case, magnetization/site (m) versus magenetic field (h) plot exhibits well-defined magnetization plateaus.

description: We hypothesize that dynamical systems concepts used to study the transition to turbulence in shear flows are applicable to other transition phenomena in fluid mechanics. In this paper, we consider a finite air bubble that propagates within a Hele-Shaw channel containing a depth-perturbation. Recent experiments revealed that the bubble shape becomes more complex, quantified by an increasing number of transient bubble tips, with increasing flow rate. Eventually the bubble changes topology, breaking into two or more distinct entities with non-trivial dynamics. We demonstrate that qualitatively similar behaviour to the experiments is exhibited by a previously established, depth-averaged mathematical model; a consequence of the model's intricate solution structure. For the bubble volumes studied, a stable asymmetric bubble exists for all flow rates of interest, whilst a second stable solution branch develops above a critical flow rate and transitions between symmetric and asymmetric shapes. The region of bistability is bounded by two Hopf bifurcations on the second branch. By developing a method for a numerical weakly nonlinear stability analysis we show that unstable periodic orbits emanate from the Hopf bifurcation at the lower flow rate and, moreover, that these orbits are edge states that influence the transient behaviour of the system.
Six women writers in contemporary China : a comparative study of three generations, 1978-1989

description: This thesis examines the writings of six mainland Chinese women writers - Ru Zhijuan, Shen Rong, Zhang Jie, Zhang Kangkang, Zhang Xinxin and Wang Anyi - belonging to three different generations as a reflection of the changing attitudes of Chinese urban intellectual women to literature and society in the period 1978-1989. Underlying the various generational differences that emerge from a thematic analysis of their writing are two related trends: a trend away from collective orientation in the older writers' works towards literature centred on the individual and the self in the younger writers' works; and that of the younger writers away from the Chinese socialist and Confucian traditions that guided socialist literature in mainland China prior to 1978. The trend away from socialist literary traditions is most palpable in the writers' treatment of history and contemporary society. Whereas veteran writer Ru Zhijuan's presentation of pre-1949 history perpetuated state myths of the Party's glorious past, the younger writers challenged both the model of the heroic communist soldier and the use of class stereotypes to depict wider society that had been established in earlier Chinese socialist literature. Whereas social and political issues were central to the older writers' fiction about the period from 1949, the younger women's writing tended to focus on characters and their psychological development. The writers' treatment of love, sex and marriage showed a strong trend away from Confucian moral values in the younger writers' fiction that intensified over the 1978-1989 period. Although all the writers presented a pessimistic view of actual marriages, and promoted marriage based on love as the ideal, the younger writers showed a much greater acceptance of blameless divorce and pre- and extra-marital sexual relationships than their older counterparts.

description: Buthraupis eximia zimmeri Moore
 Buthraupis eximia zimmeri Moore, 1934: 2 (Paramillo, western Andes, Antioquia, Colombia; alt. 12,500 feet).
 Now Buthraupis eximia zimmeri Moore, 1934. See Storer, 1970: 329, Isler and Isler, 1999: 204, and Dickinson, 2003: 808.
 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 134377, adult male, collected on Cerro Paramillo (5 Paramillo), 12,500 ft, 07.04N, 75.55W (Paynter, 1997), western Andes, Antioquia, Colombia, on 25 January 1915, by Leo E. Miller (no. 10914) and Howarth Boyle.
 COMMENTS: Moore cited the AMNH number of the holotype in the original description and listed the additional specimens examined: one female from Paramillo; four males, two females from Santa Isabel; and one male, one female from Almaguer. The paratypes in AMNH are: Paramillo, AMNH 134379, female; Santa Isabel, AMNH 113008–113011, 113014, three males, two females; Almaguer, AMNH 117347, 117348, male, female.
 AMNH 134378, also a female from Cerro Paramillo, is marked in the catalog as having been exchanged to O. Bangs at MCZ in September 1918. This specimen was given MCZ no. 124899, but was later returned to AMNH and then exchanged to BIM in July 1923 and given BIM no. 12919. It was returned to AMNH in November 1935, when the BIM bird collection was given to AMNH, and renumbered as AMNH 441193. Thus it was not in AMNH when Moore described this form and is not a paratype of zimmeri. The female from Cerro Paramillo, AMNH 134379, is not in the AMNH collection, and it may have been exchanged without the catalog having been marked. It is not present in the MCZ collection (J. Trimble, personal commun.).
The fourth male from Santa Isabel listed by Moore was not cataloged or found; two additional specimens in this series from Santa Isabel had been exchanged, but in 1918, long before the description of this subspecies.

description: We study the habitability of the two 1-2 Earth-mass planets, recently detected by the CARMENES collaboration, around the ultra-cool nearby M dwarf Teegarden's Star. With orbital periods of 4.9 and 11.4 days, both planets are likely to be within the Habitable Zone and tidally locked. They are among the most Earth-like exoplanets yet discovered. Applying an analytical habitability model we find that surface liquid water could be present on both planets for a wide range of atmospheric properties, which makes them attractive targets for bio-signature searches. The prospects of the planets retaining such an atmosphere over their history are discussed.

description: The interplay of magnetism and spin-orbit coupling on an Fe kagome lattice in Fe3Sn2 crystal produces a unique band structure leading to an order of magnitude larger anomalous Hall effect than in conventional ferromagnetic metals. In this work, we demonstrate that Fe-Sn nanocrystalline films also exhibit a large anomalous Hall effect, being applicable to magnetic sensors that satisfy both high sensitivity and thermal stability. In the films prepared by a co-sputtering technique at room temperature, the partial development of crystalline lattice order appears as nanocrystals of Fe-Sn kagome layer. The tangent Hall angle, the ratio of Hall resistivity to longitudinal resistivity, is largely enhanced in the optimal alloy composition of close to Fe3Sn2, exemplifying the kagome origin even though the films are composed of nanocrystal and amorphous-like domains. These ferromagnetic Fe-Sn films possess great advantages as a Hall sensor over semiconductors in thermal stability owing to the weak temperature dependence of the anomalous Hall responses. Moreover, the room-temperature fabrication enables us to develop a mechanically flexible Hall sensor on an organic substrate. These demonstrations manifest the potential of kagome metal as an untapped reservoir for designing new functional devices.

description: A general scheme is developed to analyze the effect of non-uniform thermal magnetization fluctuations in a thin film. The normal mode formalism is utilized to calculate random magnetization fluctuations. The magnetization noise is proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to the film volume. The total noise power is the sum of normal mode spectral noises and mainly determined by spin-wave standing modes with an odd number of oscillations. The effect rapidly decreases with increasing mode number. An exact analytical calcutaion is presented for a two-cell model.

description: The structures and anticancer effects of two sesquiterpene lactones, 1 R,10S,3S,4R-diepoxyguai-5S,6S,7S-11(13)-en-6,12-olide (1) and hanphyllin (2) isolated from the aerial part of Tanacetopsis karataviensis (Kovalevsk.) Kovalevsk were investigated. The compound 1 was isolated for the first time as a natural compound and its structure was investigated by HR-ESI-MS, IR and NMR techniques. The X-ray diffraction analysis was performed to accurately determine the spatial structures of 1 and 2. Furthermore, we evaluated the cytotoxic activity of 1 and 2, and the chloroform fraction which contains both of them. Cytotoxic activity revealed that the effect of the chloroform fraction is stronger in growth inhibition of HeLa (89.7%) and HEp-2 (63.0%) cancer cells than the effect of individual compounds 1 (55.9 and 36.3%), 2 (78.6 and 50.3%) and the reference cisplatin (58.0 and 46.8%) respectively. Moreover, the chloroform fraction is less toxic to the hepatocytes.

description: The simulation of tactile sensation using haptic devices is increasingly investigated in conjunction with simulation and training. In this paper we explore the most popular haptic frameworks and APIs. We provide a comprehensive review and comparison of their features and capabilities, from the perspective of the need to develop a haptic simulator for medical training purposes. In order to compare the studied frameworks and APIs, we identified and applied a set of 11 criteria and we obtained a classification of platforms, from the perspective of our project. According to this classification, we used the best platform to develop a visual-haptic prototype for liver diagnostics.

description: The dynamics of a glass-forming material slow greatly near the glass transition, and molecular motion becomes inhibited. We use confocal microscopy to investigate the motion of colloidal particles near the colloidal glass transition. As the concentration in a dense colloidal suspension is increased, particles become confined in transient cages formed by their neighbors. This prevents them from diffusing freely throughout the sample. We quantify the properties of these cages by measuring temporal anticorrelations of the particles' displacements. The local cage properties are related to the subdiffusive rise of the mean square displacement: over a broad range of time scales, the mean square displacement grows slower than linearly in time.

description: The aerial portions of Cynara scolymus commonly have been eaten as vegetables or functional foods by the people lived in Mediterranean region. In preliminary antioxidant screening, the rhizome portions (CSR) of this species showed better potential than leaves ones. However, neither phytochemical nor pharmacology studies of CSR have been reported to date. The purpose of this research was to identify the active components from CSR through bioassay-guided fractionation. The antioxidant properties of secondary metabolites 1–9 were evaluated in this investigation. Compounds 4–6, 8, and 9 showed antioxidant activities based on DPPH free radical scavenging activity with IC50 values of 22.91–147.21 μM. Besides, compound 8 significantly and dose-dependently reduced H2O2-induced ROS levels in keratinocyte HaCaT cells without cytotoxicity toward HaCaT. Overall, our studies demonstrated the rhizome of C. scolymus could be used as a new natural antioxidant like the edible aerial portions and phenolic compounds are the active components.

Today most of the remaining speakers of the language, who number approximately sixty, live in the coastal town of Onslow. Others live in Rocbourne and Witnoom and on a number of pastoral leases in the Hammersly area. 1.1 linguistic Type Panyjima is in many ways typical of the suffixing languages of Western Australia. The phoneme inventory is typically Australian. There arc six points of articulation for stops and nasals with both a laminal and an apical contrast. There are four laterals, corresponding to the non-peripheral stops, two glides and two rhotics. There are three short vowels, and three long vowels of rare occcurrencc. Nouns and adjectives cannot be distinguished on morphological grounds. Nominals take number and other derivational suffixes, and a set of inflectional case markers. Verbs take inflectional markers of tense, aspect, mood and voice. A three way number distinction operates in the pronoun paradigm and an inclusive/exclusive distinction operates for non-singular first person, The first and second person non-singular pronouns also code certain kin relationships between the speaker and the address~e(s). Panyjima (and other languages of the Ngayarda subgroup) differ most markedly fron other Australian languages in having a normative/ accusative case marking system with a productive syntactic passive. It is clear, however, that this system has evolved out of an earlier ergative case marking system.

description: In the late 1980s the Vietnamese higher education sector was facing a crisis in terms of financing, relevance to the wider community, and its future direction. Not only did the government have insufficient finance to maintain the current system, the system itself no longer appeared to meet the needs of the country, and its employment needs in particular. In light of the difficulties facing higher education at this time, this thesis examines the changes to Vietnamese higher education and higher education policy between 1986 and 1998, and argues that the Vietnamese government began to place a new emphasis on the education sector as a means to achieving government development goals. In light of this new emphasis the government showed a definite trend towards the decentralisation of responsibilities away from the central government, in matters of finance, administration and curriculum, and in favour of the universities themselves. Universities themselves were also keen to take up new opportunities offered by the new openness in the country and initiated a number of their own innovations, with differing degrees of acceptance by the government. In summary, this thesis attempts to do three things. First, it seeks to document the changes that have taken place in higher education in Vietnam between 1986 and 1998, focussing particularly on the changes to government policy. Second, it seeks to examine those changes in the light of international thinking about the relationship between higher education and development, and particularly the state-centric and neo-liberal models of higher education. Finally, it evaluates the relevance of the state-society dichotomy for understanding the changes that have taken place in higher education and particularly higher education policy, and concludes that an alternative approach to the subject may yield a more comprehensive analytical framework within which to understand higher education and development in Vietnam.

description: We consider the D dimensional Einstein Maxwell theory with a null fluid in the Kerr-Schild Geometry. We obtain a complete set of differential conditions that are necessary for finding solutions. We examine the case of vanishing pressure and cosmological constant in detail. For this specific case, we give the metric, the electromagnetic vector potential and the fluid energy density. This is, in fact, the generalization of the well known Bonnor-Vaidya solution to arbitrary D dimensions. We show that due to the acceleration of charged sources, there is an energy flux in $D \ge 4$ dimensions and we give the explicit form of this energy flux formula.

description: The paper addresses the problem whether and how it is possible to detect the Luttinger-liquid behavior from the $IV$ curves for tunneling to 1D or quasi-1D conductors. The power-law non-ohmic $IV$ curve, which is usually considered as a manifestation of the Luttinger-liquid behavior, can be also deduced from the theory of the Coulomb blockaded junction between 3D conductors affected by the environment effect. In both approaches the power-law exponents are determined by the ratio of the impedance of an effective electric circuit to the quantum resistance. Though two approaches predict different power-law exponents (because of a different choice of effective circuits), the difference becomes negligible for a large number of conductance channels.

description: Using a low-dimensional parametrization of signals is a generic and powerful way to enhance performance in signal processing and statistical inference. A very popular and widely explored type of dimensionality reduction is sparsity; another type is generative modelling of signal distributions. Generative models based on neural networks, such as GANs or variational auto-encoders, are particularly performant and are gaining on applicability. In this paper we study spiked matrix models, where a low-rank matrix is observed through a noisy channel. This problem with sparse structure of the spikes has attracted broad attention in the past literature. Here, we replace the sparsity assumption by generative modelling, and investigate the consequences on statistical and algorithmic properties. We analyze the Bayes-optimal performance under specific generative models for the spike. In contrast with the sparsity assumption, we do not observe regions of parameters where statistical performance is superior to the best known algorithmic performance. We show that in the analyzed cases the approximate message passing algorithm is able to reach optimal performance. We also design enhanced spectral algorithms and analyze their performance and thresholds using random matrix theory, showing their superiority to the classical principal component analysis. We complement our theoretical results by illustrating the performance of the spectral algorithms when the spikes come from real datasets.

description: The full distribution of the conductance $P(G)$ in quasi-one-dimensional wires with rough surfaces is analyzed from the diffusive to the localization regime. In the crossover region, where the statistics is dominated by only one or two eigenchannels, the numerically obtained P(G) is found to be independent of the details of the system with the average conductance as the only scaling parameter. For < e^2/h, P(G) is given by an essentially ``one-sided'' log-normal distribution. In contrast, for e^2/h < <= 2e^2/h, the shape of P(G) remarkable agrees with those predicted by random matrix theory for two fluctuating transmission eigenchannels.

The last years of Dublin Castle : the administration of Ireland 1890-1921
Creators: name: Travers, Pauric
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981

description: The most significant thing about the finding of the Royal Commission on the Rebellion in 1916 that the Irish administrative structure was 'anomalous in quiet times and almost unworkable in times of crisis' was the equanimity with which it was greeted. The defectiveness of the existing structure was widely recognised. There was less agreement about the causes of that defectiveness or how they might be remedied. The main feature which distinguished the administration of Ireland from that of the rest of the United Kingdom was the existence of a separate Irish Executive. It was a barrier to closer union and sometimes promoted greater diversity. The Executive's functions were complex and varied, probably too much so. The respective powers of its main officers were poorly defined and proved a constant source of friction. These weaknesses were exacerbated by the weakness of the permanent civil service in Ireland. Partly because of the absence of an effective contripetal force in Dublin Castle, the Irish boards and departments and the Treasury in London assumed an added importance. The Irish boards were numerous, their functions were poorly defined and often overlapped, and their operations were, in many cases, uncontrolled. This was guaranteed to infuriate the Treasury which managed to exercise a crippling control in some areas of Irish administration. The Treasury waged a prolonged campaign to limit Irish expenditure but was unsuccessful on this front because the exigencies of politics, more than anything else, shaped Irish administrative policy. This was a two-way process. If political exigencies shaped administrative policy, the administrative structure was an equally important factor in the shaping of Irish politics. That is an obvious point but one which has largely been ignored by Irish historians. With a few exceptions, they have been too preoccupied with the cut and thrust of political history to recognise how much is to be learned from the study of the theory and practice of Irish administration. The underlying theme of this thesis is the extent to which the history of the period 1890-1921 - the last years of Dublin Castle - was shaped by the machinery of government.
