    The growth of shariah banks has increased rapidly. At the same time, Indonesia financial market has developed shariah financial instruments. In order to keep up with this development, shariah banks need to innovate their products for being remain competitive domestically and abroad. On top of that, the shariah product innovation has to concern on risk management to minimize the exposure. This paper elaborates eight (8) model shariah business which include the hedging. The models are namely Value-Based Salam; Bai Bil Wafa (repurchase agreement) combination with Ijara with Option Stipulation; Bai Istijrar; Murabaha-Bilateral Mutual Adjustment; Credit-Based Mudarabah; Third Party Hedging; Musharakah-Deferred Sale with Partnership; Diminishing Partnership

    Bis(dithiomethyl-tetrathiafulvalene) with two phenyl-phosphino bridges

    The single crystal X-ray structure of the precursor dithiomethyl-tetrathiafulvalene (MeS)2TTF is reported, together with theoretical calculations at DFT level, which afforded two energy minima corresponding to cis and trans orientations of the thiomethyl substituents. The bis(tetrathiafulvalene) reaction of this TTF derivative followed by the reaction with phenyldichlorophosphine provides a new rigid bis(tetrathiafulvalene [TTF]) containing a 1,4-dihydro-1,4-diphosphinine ring between the two redox active units. Its solid-state structure, determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, shows the coexistence of both cis and trans isomers. Cyclic voltammetry measurements are in accordance with the existence of a communication between the two TTFs, as illustrated by the splitting of the oxidation waves

    In 2002, revised guidelines for preventing perinatal group B streptococcal disease were published. In 2002, all Minnesota providers surveyed reported using a prevention policy. Most screen vaginal and rectal specimens at 34–37 weeks of gestation. The use of screening-based methods has increased dramatically since 1998

    Hierarchical Self-Assembly of Supramolecular Helical Fibres from Amphiphilic C3-Symmetrical Functional Tris(tetrathiafulvalenes)

    The preparation and self-assembly of the enantiomers of a series of C3-symmetric compounds incorporating three tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) residues is reported. The chiral citronellyl and dihydrocitronellyl alkyl chains lead to helical one dimensional stacks in solution. Molecular mechanics and dynamics simulations combined with experimental and theoretical circular dichroism support the observed helicity in solution. These stacks self-assemble to give fibres that have morphologies that depend on the nature of the chiral alkyl group and the medium in which the compounds aggregate. An inversion of macroscopic helical morphology of the citronellyl compound is observed when compared to analogous 2-methylbutyl chains, which is presumably a result of the stereogenic centre being further away from the core of the molecule. This composition still allows both morphologies to be observed, whereas an achiral compound shows no helicity. The morphology of the fibres also depends on the flexibility at the chain ends of the amphiphilic components, as there is not such an apparently persistent helical morphology for the dihydrocitronellyl derivative as for that prepared from citronellyl chains

    Metadata for a long-term climate series from the Russian meteorological station “Pyramiden” (1948-1957) at Svalbard ( Short Communication)

    Soviet weather station "Pyramiden" was located in the same mining settlement on the northern shore of the Mimer bukta (Billefjorden, West Spitsbergen Island). Research station operated from 1948 to 1957, as a branch of Barentsburg research observatory (Grnfjorden, West Spitsbergen Island). It was the only station that held regular meteorological observations in the inland areas of the archipelago. Observational data (in the form of handwritten books and tables) are preserved in state fond of Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AARI, St. Petersburg, Russia). So far, these data have not been digitized and with their help not conducted any climate researches. Fruitful scientific collaboration between MET-Norway (Norwegian Meteorological Institute, Oslo) and AARI helped preserve these unique data to the polar scientific community. Now specialists-climatologists of both institutions complete joint climate researches that in the near future will be available to scientists, studying modern climate changes in the polar regions of the Earth

    Twists and turns in the hierarchical self-assembly pathways of a non-amphiphilic chiral supramolecular material

    Get PDF
    The formation of helical self-assembled fibres by a C-3 symmetric molecule incorporating three tetrathiafulvalene units is shown to be influenced dramatically by the processing conditions, leading to a variety of different chiral forms, including unprecedented croissants
