Full textAbstract:
Today’s era of societies comprise of one coherent global village, in which learning about and understanding other cultures is crucial. Fu-Jen Catholic University (FJCU), a private university in northern Taiwan, has joined the “Global Academic Initiatives” (GAI) coordinated by East Carolina University (ECU) in USA since 2007. A course entitled Cross-Cultural Communication: Global Understanding is offered in FJCU to allow students in the English department to discuss cultural topics with students from two other countries via Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for authentic contacts. The ICT tools support both the synchronous and asynchronous mode of communication. This paper describes the instructional design of the Cross-Cultural Communication: Global Understanding course including the pre-connection trainings and the connection discussions. For the post-connection part, students’ learning and reflections will be discussed along with their e-learning styles. This example could offer other educators who are interested in designing similar intercultural communication courses.

Full textAbstract:
Anxiety disorders (ADs) are disabling chronic disorders with exaggerated behavioral response to threats. This study was aimed at testing the hypothesis that ADs may be associated with reduced neurotrophic activity, particularly of Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and determining possible effects of genetics on serum BDNF concentrations. In 672 adult subjects from six isolated villages in North-Eastern Italy with high inbreeding, we determined serum BDNF levels and identified subjects with different ADs subtypes such as Social and Specific Phobias (PHSOC, PHSP), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), and Panic Disorder (PAD). Analysis of the population as a whole or individual village showed no significant correlation between serum BDNF levels and Val66Met polymorphism and no association with anxiety levels. Stratification of subjects highlighted a significant decrease in serum BDNF in females with GAD and males with PHSP. This study indicates low heritability and absence of any impact of the Val66Met polymorphism on circulating concentrations of BDNF. Our results show that BDNF is not a general biomarker of anxiety but serum BDNF levels correlate in a gender-specific manner with ADs subtypes.

Full textAbstract:
Gac fruit (Momordica cochinchinensis Spreng) is indigenous to Vietnam and other countries in Southeast Asia. Its seed pulp contains high concentrations of carotenoids, especially the provitamin A, β-carotene. In northern Vietnam, gac fruits are seasonal and are mainly used in making a rice dish called xoi gac. The purpose of this study was to develop a method to collect and preserve gac fruit oil, to evaluate the nutritional composition of the oil, and to assess the acceptability of the gac oil by typical Vietnamese homemakers. One hundred women participated in training to learn how to prepare the fruits and operate the oil press. The women also participated in a survey of gac fruit use and their habitual use of animal fat and vegetable oil. Among all the participants in the training and surveys, 35 women actually produced oil from gac fruits grown in the village, using manual oil presses and locally available materials. The total carotene concentration in gac fruit oil was 5,700 μg/ml. The concentration of β-carotene was 2,710 μg/ml. Sixty-nine percent of total fat was unsaturated, and 35% of that was polyunsaturated. The average daily consumption of gac fruit oil was estimated at 2 ml per person. The daily β-carotene intake (from gac fruit oil) averaged approximately 5 mg per person. It was found that gac oil can be produced locally by village women using manual presses and locally available materials. The oil is a rich source of β-carotene, vitamin E, and essential fatty acids. Although the β-carotene concentration declines with time without a preservative or proper storage, it was still high after three months. The oil was readily accepted by the women and their children, and consumption of the oil increased the intake of β-carotene and reduced the intake of lard.

Full textAbstract:
In the present study, radon gas concentration in the shallow groundwater samples of the Abu-Jir region in Anbar governorate was measured by using Rad-7 detector. The highest radon gas level in the samples is up to 9.3 Bq/L, while the lowest level is 2.1 Bq/L, with an average of 6.44±1.8 Bq/L. The annual effective dose is varied from 33.945 μSv/y to 7.66 μSv/y, with an average of 0.145±0.06 μSv/y. Consequently, the radon level in the groundwater studied is lower than the standard recommended value (11 Bq/L) reported by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The potential source of radon is uranium-rich hydrocarbons that are leakage to the surface along the Abu-Jir Fault. This research did not indicate any risk that radon gas concentrations may occur in the groundwater in the study area, and despite this, the research strongly recommends to propose a new Iraqi specification that defines the permissible level of radon gas concentrations in the groundwater and air to avoid harm to human health and will be an Iraqi standard that will be applied for the first time in Iraq.

Full textAbstract:
Two field trials were conducted during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 seasons at Aweesh Al-Hagar Village, center of Mansoura, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt. A split-split-plot design with four replicates was used. The main plots were assigned three nitrogen fertilizer levels, i.e., 165, 220, and 275 kg/ha. The sub-plots were restricted to four gibberellic acid (GA3) concentrations, i.e., 0, 80, 160, and 240 mg/L, and the sub-sub plots received GA3 application twice, i.e., 60 and 120 days after planting (DAP). The results showed that both root length and diameter, root and foliage fresh weights/plant, and root and foliage yields/ha increased with the incremental level of nitrogen and/or GA3 concentration. Foliar application of GA3 and N-fertilizers also significantly decreased quality parameters including sucrose and total soluble solid (TSS) percentages. Early application of GA3 (60 DAP) had an active role on sugar beet growth, yield, and quality compared with spraying at 120 DAP. Generally, fertilizing sugar beet with 275 kg N/ha or spraying GA3 with a concentration of 160 mg/L at 60 DAP is the recommended treatment for raising sugar yield under the ecological circumstances of this research.

Full textAbstract:
<p>Low savings in the economy could lead to ineffective mobilization of funds for domestic investment. This could be part of the reason why Nigeria depends heavily on external borrowing for its developmental and investment projects. There is little or no documented evidence from available literatures of savings culture of farmers in the area. The dearth of such conclusive evidence has left gap which this study tried to fulfill by investigating the intervening variables. Purposive sampling was used to select four and two wards from Sabongari and Gagi wards. The choice of the selection was based on the preponderance of smallholder farmers in these locations. Two (2) villages were randomly selected from each ward. A random selection of twenty (20) farmers from each village gave a total of 120 respondents for the study. Data were elicited through a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression technique. On the whole, age, farm income, non-farm income, interest rate and the distance were significant in determining the amount of saving by smallholder farmers in the study area. Thus, these factors have to be considered in designing strategies aimed at improving the savings of smallholder farmers.</p>

Full textAbstract:
This article is an important part of the exploration of the development of local treasures related to the beliefs and behavior of traditional village midwives towards supernatural beings. The midwives in East Banjarmasin have a belief that there are supernatural creatures called supernatural beings, besides genies and angels. Their relationship with this supernatural person is very close, because supernatural people are part of their kinship. This supernatural person is believed to have taught them to massage through dreams. This creature can become an animal. Unseen people are people or humans who are God-idolized, can the time in the womb disappear by itself, or after birth disappear. The behavior of traditional village midwives towards these occult people is that they always establish kinship, by giving offerings in the form of bitter coffee, sweet coffee, water, sticky rice, eggs, bananas, red and white porridge. In Islam it is not explicitly talked about this supernatural person, there are only supernatural beings (genies and angels). It could be that in Islam the occult is grouped into genie, because genie means hidden, and the occult is also hidden. But according to the author, if there is a magic person other than the genie, then there is an Al-Quran verse that supports implicitly, namely in the Surah An-Nâs verses 4-6. That is the whisper of evil hidden into the chest (heart), not ears, and which whispers it from the genie and human.Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dan menggambarkan khazanah lokal yang berhubungan dengan kepercayaan serta perilaku bidan kampung terhadap makhluk supernatural. Menggunakan metode penelitian studi kasus dengan teknik pengumpulan data wawancara dan observasi, peneliti mendeskripsikan pendapat dan persepsi Bidan Kampung di Kota Banjarmasin yang memiliki kepercayaan adanya makhluk supernatural yang disebut orang gaib, selain jin dan malaikat. Dari hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa hubungan mereka dengan orang gaib ini sangat dekat, karena orang gaib bagian dari kekerabatan mereka. Orang gaib inilah yang diyakini telah mengajari mereka memijat melalui mimpi. Makhluk ini bisa menjelma menjadi binatang. Orang gaib menurut pemahaman luas berupa orang atau manusia yang digaibkan Allah, bisa waktu dalam kandungan hilang dengan sendirinya, atau setelah lahir menghilang. Perilaku bidan kampung terhadap orang gaib diketahui selalu menjalin hubungan kekerabatan, dengan cara memberi sesajen berupa kopi pahit, kopi manis, air putih, nasi ketan, telor, pisang, bubur merah dan putih. Dalam Islam tidak secara tegas dibicarakan tentang orang gaib ini, yang ada hanya makhluk gaib ( jin dan malaikat). Bisa saja dalam Islam orang gaib itu dikelompokkan kepada jin, sebab jin artinya tersembunyi, dan orang gaib itu juga tersembunyi adanya. Namun menurut penulis, apabila orang gaib itu benar ada selain jin, maka ada saja ayat Al-Quran yang mendukung secara tersirat, yaitu pada surah An-Nâs ayat 4-6. Yaitu bisikan kejahatan tersembunyi ke dalam dada (hati), bukan ke telinga, dan yang membisikan itu dari golongan jin dan manusia.

Full textAbstract:
This cross-sectional type of descriptive study was conducted in three villages of Puthia Upazila under Rajshahi district to find out the prevalence of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and its effect on their daily living. A total of 876 adult people of aged 18 years and above, were selected purposively. Data were collected by face to face interview with the help of a semi-structured questionnaire which contained Hamilton’s 7-point anxiety scale. Out of 876 respondents, 80% had GAD, where mild, moderate and severe GAD being 42.5%, 31.8% and 5.7% respectively. GAD was found to be more frequently associated in the 3rd and 5th decades of life, which constituted 27% and 12.9% respectively (p < 0.001). Having GAD, females have more ability to cope with daily living than males, though GAD was not found to be associated with sex (p >0.05). Illiterate and primary level educated respondents were more often associated with GAD (40.4 and 25% respectively) than the SSC and higher level educated people (p < 0.001). Businessmen were found to be significantly associated with GAD (29.7%) than the other occupations (p < 0.001). Poor people tend to be associated with GAD significantly more than the middle class and the rich (p < 0.01). Widow(er) and married and living together were likely to have GAD than the single or divorced or separated (p < 0.001). Activities of daily living gradually becoming more difficult when intensity of anxiety status increased which is statistically significant (p<0.001).The association between sex and problem facing in everyday life shows that over 40% of the females did not have any difficulty in dealing with problem situation as compared to only 25.8% of the males, while nearly half (48.6%) of males had quite difficulty in dealing with a problem as compared to 37.3% in females (p < 0.001). The present study concluded that majority rural adult people (4 in every five) suffer from generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). The ability of coping with a problem is higher in females than the males. This study might be the basis for further in depth study in this regard.TAJ 2014; 27(1): 14-23

Full textAbstract:
The article combines two significant historical and literary phenomena. The first is a group of Russian poets and prose writers of the early twentieth century, known under the general name “new peasant poets”. The second is a group of Russian writers of the late twentieth century, whose work has received a steady definition of “village prose”. V.M. Shukshin’s works are also referred to this cultural phenomenon. The article attempts to get away from simplifying definitions of “urban romance”, “village prose”, and to establish the civilizational continuity of Shukshin’s work with “new peasant poets” of the early twentieth century. The author also tries to consider the phenomenon of the group of “new peasant poets” from the cultural, philosophical and historical-biographical points of view – In the unity of their work, fate and dramatic changes in the history of Russia. The article uses theoretical works on Russian and world literature and history by M.M. Bakhtin, V.V. Kozhinova, I.R. Shafarevich, G.I. Shmeleva, P.F. Alyoshkina, S.Yu. and S.S. Kunyaevs, recent publications on Shukshin’s works by V.I. Belov, A.D. Zabolotsky, and A.N. Varlamov.

Aim: In some regions of Bayannaoer arsenic concentration in well drinking water is higher than the international standard of 10 μg/L. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of exposures to arsenic in drinking water on generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Materials and Methods: A survey was conducted in 2016 among villagers in Hangjinhou County, Bayannaoer City, Inner Mongolia. A questionnaire was used to inquire about GAD, arsenic related neurological symptoms. Arsenic concentration in the water was measured and arsenicosis prevalence was assessed. Multinomial logistic regression and ordinal logistic regression were performed to evaluate the association of abnormal arsenic levels on increased GAD symptoms. Results: 446 participants were enrolled. Subjects with exposure to water arsenic levels>10 μg/L were significantly more likely to have mild GAD than controls (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] =2.3, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-4.8). Participants who were diagnosed with arsenicosis were more likely to report mild anxiety than minimal anxiety compared to those who did not (AOR=2.3, 95% CI, 1.3-4.1). Survey respondents with palpitations, forgetfulness, headaches, dizziness, decreased taste, decreased hearing, loss of touch, abnormal warm and cold sensation, blurred vision, numbness and tingling were more likely to report mild, moderate and severe anxiety. Conclusions: Arsenic exposure was associated with a higher risk of GAD. Screening for arsenic exposure should be incorporated into the evaluation of GAD, in areas where arsenic in drinking water is known to be abnormal.

Toute la côte ouest de Terre-Neuve — le « French Shore » — était au siècle dernier fréquentée par les Bretons qui y péchaient depuis le traité d'Utrecht de 1713, où ils avaient acquis des droits qu'ils finirent par considérer comme exclusifs. Les « maîtres de pêche », jaloux de leurs privilèges, ne permirent cependant à aucun pêcheur de s'établir sur la côte : contrairement aux autres postes qu'ils avaient occupés dans le golfe depuis Gaspé jusqu'au Labrador, à Terre-Neuve les Français ne firent que la pêche de bateau. Entre 1825 et 1850, la compagnie saint-pierraise Campion-Théroulde acquit un monopole exclusif sur l'île Rouge, à condition d'y transporter des Bretons et des Saint-Pierrais pour la pêche d'été. C'est à partir de cette époque que quelques pêcheurs réussirent à s'établir en permanence, depuis la Grand Terre jusqu'à La Barre (du sud au nord), puis du Cap à Port-au-Port à l'entrée de l'isthme, sur les côtes de la Baie Saint-Georges. Jusqu'alors on pratiquait la pêche à la morue, mais bientôt le développement de la pêche au homard et de la mise en conserve suscita l'intérêt de nombreux groupes : les pêcheurs de la Nouvelle-Ecosse commencèrent d'affluer, les Terre-Neuviens réclamèrent leur part. Les Français durent se retirer dans six postes de la côte qu'ils gardèrent jalousement : l'île Rouge, Cod Roy, L'Anse-au-Canard, Port-au-Choix, Petit-Havre, Port-au-Port. Seuls les engagés des maîtres de pêche pouvaient résider dans ces endroits. L'immigration acadienne se développa parallèlement, entre 1830 et 1900, à partir des Îles-de-la-Madeleine, de la Nouvelle-Ecosse, de Magree et Chéticamp au Cap-Breton. Pour demeurer indépendants des Français, les pêcheurs acadiens se restreignirent à la pêche à la morue. Ceux qui voulaient s'établir durent cependant acheter les terres aux Français et leur vendre les produits de la pêche pour acquérir les provisions d'hiver. Quelques-uns louèrent leurs services aux marchands-maîtres de pêche — les Leroux, Grenier, Tajean, Chrétien, etc. — pour la prise ou la transformation du homard ; ce sont surtout les femmes qui furent affectées à cette dernière tâche. Depuis 1888, les Français, chassés de la côte sud par le Bait Act du gouvernement terre-neuvien, songent, malgré l'opposition des Saint-Pierrais, à abandonner leurs droits sur la côte ouest ; 1904 marquera la fin de la pêche française sur les côtes de Terre-Neuve. Les habitants reprirent les postes de l'île Rouge pour la morue et le homard ; on pratiqua une pêche mixte sur la côte de la Baie Saint-Georges. On complétait la subsistance avec le produit de la chasse et quelque jardinage et cueillette. Le développement de la coupe forestière du côté de Corner Brook, à partir de 1910, sollicita grandement les habitants de la Baie Saint-Georges : on connut alors la pratique mixte de la pêche et des chantiers, ou bien de l'agriculture — qui s'était développée — et des chantiers. L'émigration vers les États-Unis avait commencé dès les premières générations de peuplement français ; avant la fin du XIXe siècle, plusieurs jeunes hommes s'étaient dirigés vers Boston et les centres industriels pour y faire quelque fortune. Mais l'émigration ne devint un véritable courant qu'avec les guerres, surtout avec l'érection de la base militaire américaine de Stephenville, en 1940 ; plusieurs filles de la Baie épousèrent des G.I. et partirent à leur suite aux États-Unis. Les centres actuels d'attraction sont Corner Brook, Stephenville et le Nouveau-Brunswick.

Full textAbstract:
To gain insight on the significance of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) indeterminate serological reactivities, we studied villagers of South Cameroon, focusing on a frequent and specific HTLV-1 Gag indeterminate profile (HGIP) pattern (gag p19, p26, p28, and p30 without p24 or Env gp21 and gp46). Among the 102 sera studied, 29 from all age groups had a stable HGIP pattern over a period of 4 years. There was no epidemiological evidence for sexual or vertical transmission of HGIP. Seventy-five percent of HGIP sera reacted positively on MT2 HTLV-1-infected cells by immunofluorescence assay. However, we could not isolate any HTLV-1 virus or detect the presence of p19 Gag protein in cultures of peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from individuals with strong HGIP reactivity. PCR experiments conducted with primers for HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 (HTLV-1/2 primers) encompassing different regions of the virus did not yield HTLV-1/2 proviral sequences from individuals with HGIP. Using 11 peptides corresponding to HTLV-1 or HTLV-2 immunodominant B epitopes in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, one epitope corresponding to the Gag p19 carboxyl terminus was identified in 75% of HGIP sera, while it was recognized by only 41% of confirmed HTLV-1-positive sera. A positive correlation between HTLV-1 optical density values and titers of antibody to Plasmodium falciparum was also demonstrated. Finally, passage of sera through a P. falciparum-infected erythrocyte-coupled column was shown to specifically abrogate HGIP reactivity but not the HTLV-1 pattern, suggesting the existence of cross-reactivity between HTLV-1 Gag proteins and malaria-derived antigens. These data suggest that in Central Africa, this frequent and specific Western blot is not caused by HTLV-1 infection but could instead be associated with P. falciparum infection.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of gibberellins in breaking dormancy to produce high viability snakefruit (Salacca snakefruit Geartner) seeds. The materials used are snakefruit seeds from Tamareja Village, Donggala Regency, sterile sand media, aquades, and GA3 solution. This research was arranged using a completely randomized design (CRD) with one factor, namely the provision of gibberellin, consisting of five levels of concentration, namely P0 = control (without treatment), P1 = 30 ppm and P2 = 40 ppm P3 = 50 ppm P4 = 60 ppm. each treatment was repeated five times so that there were 25 experimental units. Each experimental unit used 20 seeds. Observation data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by Tukey' HSD test if the treatment tested showed a significant effect. The results showed that gibberellin administration effectively broke snakefruit seeds' dormancy and produced seeds with high viability. The higher the gibberellins' concentration would increase germination speed plumule length, radicle length, and faster embryo axis emergence. Gibberellin 60 ppm resulted in germination power 98%, germination rate 20.97 days, plumule length 5.52 cm, radicle length 5.15 cm, and embryo axis emergence 9.2 days.

Full textAbstract:
SUMMARY The difficulty and the high cost to assess the subsurface properties led to the development of several geophysical techniques. Generally, the focus of a site study is the reconstruction of the S-wave velocity profile down to few tens to hundreds of metres (e.g. 30–300 m), but not the investigation of deeper structures, such as the transition to the crystalline basement. However, such deeper structures are of interest when seismic hazard products have to relate to a reference rock-velocity profile, for example in regional seismic hazard assessment and microzonation studies. To estimate the S-wave velocity profiles down to several kilometres, we study the potential of Rayleigh and Love waves at low (down to 0.1 Hz) and high (up to 20 Hz) frequencies using two seismic arrays of increasing size. The small array, with a maximum inter-station distance of 900 m and a recording time of 3 hr, was aimed at constraining the shallow subsurface down to about 350–400 m, while the big one, with a maximum inter-station distance of more than 29 km and 23 hr of recording had the goal to constrain the deeper structure. The arrays were deployed in northern Switzerland (east of the village of Herdern) within the Swiss Molasse basin, a sedimentary basin north of the Alps stretching from Lake Constance to Lake Geneva; its thickness increases from 800 to 900 m in the northeast to more than 5 km in the southwest. The seismic data recorded by the two arrays were analysed using the techniques developed for the analysis of small-aperture arrays. The results were inverted for the S-wave velocity profile in two steps: first, the Rayleigh and Love wave phase dispersion curves were inverted together. Secondly, the previous dispersion curves were jointly inverted with the measured Rayleigh wave ellipticity angle. The resulting S-wave velocity profiles are similar and show agreement with the available geological and geophysical data, confirming the potential of surface waves to investigate deep structures. Moreover, our analysis proves the feasibility of site characterization techniques to large arrays and the possibility to estimate the P- and S-wave velocity profiles down to 5 km, deeper than the contrast between Molasse basin and crystalline rock at around 2.1 km.

Full textAbstract:
SUMMARY On 24 August 2016 at 01:36 UTC a ML6.0 earthquake struck several villages in central Italy, among which Accumoli, Amatrice and Arquata del Tronto. The earthquake was recorded by about 350 seismic stations, causing 299 fatalities and damage with macroseismic intensities up to 11. The maximum acceleration was observed at Amatrice station (AMT) reaching 916 cm s–2 on E–W component, with epicentral distance of 15 km and Joyner and Boore distance to the fault surface (RJB) of less than a kilometre. Motivated by the high levels of observed ground motion and damage, we generate broad-band seismograms for engineering purposes by adopting a hybrid method. To infer the low frequency seismograms, we considered the kinematic slip model by Tinti et al . The high frequency seismograms were produced using a stochastic finite-fault model approach based on dynamic corner-frequency. Broad-band synthetic time-series were therefore obtained by merging the low and high frequency seismograms. Simulated hybrid ground motions were compared both with the observed ground motions and the ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs), to explore their performance and to retrieve the region-specific parameters endorsed for the simulations. In the near-fault area we observed that hybrid simulations have a higher capability to detect near source effects and to reproduce the source complexity than the use of GMPEs. Indeed, the general good consistency found between synthetic and observed ground motion (both in the time and frequency domain), suggests that the use of regional-specific source scaling and attenuation parameters together with the source complexity in hybrid simulations improves ground motion estimations. To include the site effect in stochastic simulations at selected stations, we tested the use of amplification curves derived from HVRSs (horizontal-to-vertical response spectra) and from HVSRs (horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios) rather than the use of generic curves according to NTC18 Italian seismic design code. We generally found a further reduction of residuals between observed and simulated both in terms of time histories and spectra.

Cocoa leave is potential as goat’s feed, but has not been widely used by farmers. The aim of this study was to observe the use of cocoa leaves as goat feed and their effect on the daily gain of goats. This study was conducted on 2 phases. Phase 1, study of the use of cocoa leaves as feed goat has been done on 10 farmers with innovation and 10 farmers without innovation. The observations were done by weighing of fresh cocoa leaves as goat feed for eight months (March to October, 2013). Independent t-test was done to analyze the cocoa leaves treatments on farmers with and without innovation . Phase 2, feeding trial has been done for 8 weeks to compare 3 level of feed treatments namely A (grass ad lib, cocoa leaves 2 kg/head/day, rice bran 0.6 kg/head/day), B (grass ad lib, cocoa leaves 2 kg/head/day) and C (grass ad lib). Each level of feed treatment consisted of 7 male Bligon goats, aged 11-12 months. Data was analyzed using analysis of covariance with initial body weight as covariate. The results showed that the use of cocoa leaves as goat feed on farmers with innovations was 130 ± 18 g/head/day higher than on farmers without innovation namely 33 ± 19 g/head/day. Body weight gain of goat increased from 30,6 ± 13,5 g/head/day (feeding grass) to 61,2 ± 9,5 g/head/day if added cocoa leaves 2 kg/head/day and to 68,9 ± 24,0g/head/day if added cocoa leaves 2 kg/head/day and rice bran 0.6 kg/head/day. The study implied that cocoa-goats integration system should be developed to optimize the utilization of cocoa leaves as goat’s feed.

Abstract Objectives Poor child growth is associated with losses in human capital and economic productivity. High fertility rates are an increasing concern in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The link between population-level fertility and child height remains underexplored. Methods Data were from 88 cross-sectional Demographic and Health Surveys from 44 LMICs across three regions between 2000 and 2015. Sample sizes (number of children aged 0–59 months) were 287,032 for South Asia (SAS), 345,256 for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), and 130,040 for South America (SAM). We explored the association between fertility and child height-for-age z-score (HAZ). Fertility was indexed using total fertility rate (TFR), the number of children born to a woman were she to survive through her childbearing years according to age-specific fertility rates. TFR was calculated at the village level using birth histories and age distributions of women aged 15–49 years. Fixed effects regression models were used to estimate the association between changes in village level TFR and changes in child HAZ. These models were adjusted for country fixed effects, survey-year fixed effects, clustering, and demographic and socioeconomic covariates for the child, mother, and household. Country-level regression decomposition analysis was used to estimate the contribution of the actual TFR reduction from World Bank data to the actual gain in child HAZ. Results On average, individual level HAZ was −1.46 (95% CI −1.47, −1.45) in SAS, −1.50 (95% CI −1.50, −1.49) in SSA and −1.19 (95% CI −1.20, −1.19) in SAM. Mean country level TFR was 2.69 (95% CI 2.36–3.01) in SAS, 5.21 (95% CI 4.96, 5.47) in SSA and 2.76 (95% CI 2.50, 3.02) in SAM. The adjusted fixed effects models showed that a 1-unit decrease in village level TFR was associated with a 0.20 (95% CI 0.18, 0.21) increase in child HAZ in SAS, 0.09 (95% CI 0.07, 0.10) in SSA and 0.15 (95% CI 0.14, 0.17) in SAM. Decomposition analysis showed that reductions in TFR explained 25.7% of the increase in mean HAZ across countries between 2000 and 2015. Conclusions These findings point to an underappreciated role of fertility in the global discourse on childhood stunting. Noncoercive policies, interventions and incentives leading to replacement level fertility have the potential to support rapid reductions in stunting required to achieve development goals.

Babies should be exclusively breastfed for the first 6 months. But the success of exclusive breastfeeding is low. Shown with coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in the Village District of Arjasa Biting Jember is by 30-40%, whereas the target coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia is 80%. The reason is the lack of milk production. Efforts are needed to increase milk production. By providing water boiled papaya fruit in nursing mothers can improve milk production. This study aimed to determine differences in weight babies in the treatment group with the control group. The research method used in this research is the design of Quasi Experimental "Non-Equivalent Control Group Design". Sampling technique using accidental sampling by respondents as many as 28 nursing mothers. Scale ratio data with independent t-test test gained an average weight gain of treatment and control group infants at 279,78 and 179,36. Analysis SPSS statistical test obtained t count > t table (3,86 > 2.160). Thus Ho is rejected, meaning that there are differences in weight babies in the treatment group with the control group. That is because the boiled papaya fruit contain saponins and alkaloids which can affect the production of prolactin and oxytocin. With the significant results expected health workers can provide information to breastfeeding mothers that water boiled papaya fruit can increase milk production.

The objective of this research was to evaluate economic benefit and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction potential of a family-scale anaerobic cowdung biogas digester. Research was conducted at two villages in Lampung Province, namely Marga Lestari, District of South Lampung and Pesawaran Indah, District of Pesawaran. Economic benefit and GHG emission reduction potential were evaluated from LPG saving due to biogas utilisation for cooking and fertilizer substitution by slurry digestate. Results showed that a family-scale anaerobic cowdung biogas digester demonstrated a good potential to reduce GHG emission, but not in economic. A digester with 4 heads of cow produced biogas at a rate of 1582 L/day. With average methane content of 53.6%, energy value of the biogas was equivalent to 167 kg LPG and able to substitute 52 bottles LPG annually. A family-scale biogas contributed 108.1 USD/year and potentially reduced GHG emission by 5292.5 kg CO2e/year resulted from biomethane potential, LPG, and fertilizer savings.Article History: Received November 15th 2016; Received in revised form January 16th 2017; Accepted February 2nd 2017; Available onlineHow to Cite This Article: Haryanto, A., Cahyani, D., Triyono, S., Murdapa, F., and Haryono, D.

The objective of this research was to identify diversity of exon 5 UTMP gene fragment in Bali cattle using direct sequencing. The total 60 blood samples of Bali Cattle derived from BPTU Bali in Bali siland (20 heads), BPTU Serading in Sumbawa island (20 heads) and Village Breeding Center in Barru District South Sulawesi (20 heads) were used to evaluate their genetic diversity at exon 5 UTMP gene. The forward and reverse data sequences were analyzed using Bioedit program and alignment analysis was carried out using MEGA5 program. Meanwhile haplotype analysis was performed by DnaSPv5 program. The result showed that partial sequences in exon 5 UTMP gene had 16 haplotypes with the highest number of haplotypes ware found in VBC Barru district South Sulawesi (8 haplotypes). Moreover, the highest average of haplotype (h) and nucleotide (p) diversity were found in VBC Barru district South Sulawesi were 0.7949 and 0.0016, respectively. In addition, minisatellite insersion was found in exon 5 UTMP gene fragment on Bali cattle which are consist of 5'-CCA GTC ATG AAG AAG GCA GAG GTC GTC GTG CCG GCG AAA-3'. According to our results, haplotype and minisatellite variation in exon 5 UTMP gene fragment can be used as a candidate genetic marker specific for reproductive trait in the Bali cattle and for its strategy breeding program in the future.

Full textAbstract:
Previously known theropod dinosaur footprints preserved as natural casts in the Tuchengzi Formation, on a rock wall beside the railway in Nanshuangmiao Village, Shangbancheng Town, Chengde City, were originally assigned to ichnogenus Anchisauripus and tentatively attributed to oviraptosaurs. The assemblage was restudied in more detail by examining the entire assemblage of 55 tracks associated with two horizons. The size range of the 27 measured tracks suggests a more diverse grallatorid–eubrontid assemblage and potentially greater diversity of theropod trackmakers. The label Anchisauripus, which has fallen into disuse in some recent literature, implies trackmakers of medium shape and size in the grallatorid–eubrontid morphological spectrum. However, given the presence of other theropod ichnotaxa in the Jurassic to Early Cretaceous strata of the Tuchengzi Formation and time equivalent units we suggest that explicit reference to the Grallator-Anchisauripus-Eubrontes (GAE) plexus, or simply the term Grallator-Eubrontes plexus be confined to Lower Jurassic assemblages as originally defined and intended. Further study centered on the 16 known Tuchengzi assemblages and older theropod ichnfaunas is necessary to confirm or refute the degree to which grallatorid–eubrontid assemblages from these different epochs are similar or convergent. Even if the tracks are morphologically very similar inferences regarding trackmaker identity are problematic because the same theropodan trackmaker species, genera or even families were not present in both epochs.

Full textAbstract:
The mopo’a huta ritual is a ritual practiced by Gorontalo people when the dry season arrives. By carrying out this ritual, people believe that rain will fall and fertility and prosperity will come. This ritual has been carried out since hundreds of years ago, but nowadays it has begun to be opposed by several groups. This study aims to find out how the practice of the mopo'a Huta ritual, how the public view of the mopo'a huta ritual using Geertz's perspective. The study used a qualitative approach with case studies, conducted interviews with the organizers, made observations during the procession, and explored the results of previous research. The study found that the mopo'a huta ritual in practice held a dance (dayango) accompanied by the wasps of towohu (drums) for several nights. At the peak of the ritual, offerings were made consisting of certain ingredients to be presented to supernatural beings as the rulers of nature. For this practice, there are 3 community groups 1) the abangan group, namely the traditional farmers who still hold the tradition, 2) the santri group, namely the educated community as a group of modern farmers, some of whom still believe and some do not believe because there is already technology that can solve problems, 3) priyai groups, namely village heads. In the past, the village head was the main supporter of the mopo'a huta ritual, while at present, the village head secures himself in the middle position. 
 ABSTRAK
 Ritual mopo’a huta adalah ritual yang dipraktikkan masyarakat Gorontalo ketika musim kemarau tiba. Dengan melaksanakan ritual ini, masyarakat meyakini hujan akan turun serta kesuburan dan kemakmuran akan datang. Ritual ini dilaksanakan sejak ratusan tahun silam, namun dewasa ini mulai ditentang oleh beberapa kalangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana praktik ritual mopo’a Huta, bagaimana pandangan masyarakat tentang ritual mopo’a huta dengan menggunakan perspektif Geertz. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan studi kasus, melakukan wawancara dengan tokoh-tokoh penyelenggara, melakukan pengamatan selama prosesi itu dilaksanakan, serta menggali hasil-hasil penelitian terdahulu. Penelitian menemukan bahwa ritual mopo’a huta dalam praktiknya menggelar tarian (dayango) diiringi tabuhan towohu (gendang) selama beberapa malam. Pada puncak ritual digelar sesajian yang terdiri dari bahan-bahan tertentu untuk dipersembahkan kepada mahluk gaib sebagai penguasa alam. Terhadap praktik ini, terdapat 3 kelompok masyarakat 1) kelompok abangan, yaitu kalangan petani tradisional yang masih erat memegang tradisi, 2) kelompok santri, yaitu kalangan masyarakat terdidik sebagai kelompok petani modern, kalangan ini sebagian masih percaya dan sebagian lagi tidak percaya karena sudah ada teknologi yang dapat menyelseaikan masalah, 3) kelompok priyai, yaitu kepala desa. Pada masa lalu, kepala desa sebagai pendukung utama ritual mopo’a huta, sementara pada masa kini, kepala desa berada dipersimpangan.

Hormonal contraception is one of the most effective and reversible methods to prevent a conception. The use of contraception by the type/method is dominated by injection (48,56%) dan pills (26,60%) of total KB users. Nevertheless, hormonal contraception can cause side effects such as changes in the menstruation cycle changing and weight gaining. This study aimed to determine the relation of hormonal contraception with the change of the menstruation cycle in Keluarahan Leuwinanggung in 2018. The study design was a correlative study with a cross-sectional approach. The samples were 44 respondents who were determined by cluster random sampling technique. The data result was analyzed by using Chi-Square method showed that there was correlation between oral contraception and changes in menstruation cycle (p- value=0,000) and weight gaining (p-value=0,007), there was correlation between injection contraception and changes in menstruation cycle (p-value=0,001) and weight gaining (p- value=0,024), and there wasn’t correlation between implant contraception and changes in menstruation cycle (p-value=0,298) and weight gaining (p-value=0,495).

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThe creation of a large artificial lake in 1968 that flooded a large part of the Sekani homeland has led to change in the political outlook of the reorganized Sekani villages. In particular, there has been a reemergence of a universalist social–political philosophy, pan-Indianism, that had as its precursor the cultural–political category of phratry. The association between disruption and the emergence of this system of categorization is historically grounded. The particular problem addressed is why the Sekani speak English when there is little direct contact with Euro-Canadians and no particular advantages, in terms of adaptation to the new economic regime, in doing so. Changes in Sekani English in the political sphere and in relationship terms are examined within the context of maintaining a commitment to pan-Indianism/universalism.

Full textAbstract:
Changes in plants diversity occurring the establishment of oil palm plantations, have been considered as the reasons for the changing pattern in community livelihoods. Hence, the values of plants diversity to the local community worth considering. This research was conducted to identify the local communities’ perceptions related to gain and loss of plant species diversity due to the establishment of oil palm plantation. The study was carried out in the indigenous Dayak Villages of Tajok Kayong and Nanga Tayap, West Kalimantan Province of Indonesia in March 2018. Data were collected using field observation and interviews. Our results indicate that the establishment of oil palm plantation have resulted in the gain of 3 plant species and the loss of 8 plant species functional values (medicine and food). Nevertheless, as many as 75.68% of interviewed person stated that the presence of oil palm plantations increased plant diversity, in terms of flowering plants and other non-functional plants. These findings reveals that local community were not affected by the species loss since prior to the plantation’s establishment, their living patterns were already transformed into semi modern and modern living styles in which the people have lower dependence on their surrounding plants.
