The 11th International Congress for Finno-Ugric Studies: Finno-Ugric Peoples and Languages in the 21st Century

The 11th International Congress for Finno-Ugric Studies was one of the biggest conferences in the last years among the Finno-Ugric events. Finno-Ugric People and Languages in the 21st Century dealt mainly with the language and political situation of the Finno-Ugric languages in Russia. Recent researches on descriptive linguistics and new approaches to theoretical and typological issues were also presented at the Congress

The effects of pictures on the order of accessing online war stories

Research on how people read news stories has shown that readers chose to read and access news stories associated with pictures that contained an element of attraction. Researchers have found that the emotional elements within the picture could also play a role. It is unclear how neutral human interest pictures influence readers to access news stories. Is the access process influenced by less emotive pictures or more human interest elements? These issues were explored in an experiment in which 24 students participated. The experiment compared similar news that was accompanied with a human interest picture, information graphic and without information graphic. The focus of the news stories was on war news which almost always contained human interest elements that could be neutral or emotion-laden. The experiment suggested that human interest pictures of war stories could be equally effective in attracting readers to read and remember the news stories

Gerommel binnen de bonden over het ontwerp-interprofessioneel akkoord

Met de verwerping van het voorstel tot interprofessioneel akkoord (IPA) door de socialistische bediendebond, BBTK, weerklinkt alvast een eerste stevige proteststem. Toch is deze allesbehalve beslissend. BBTK houdt er dan wel vaker een dissidente stem op na, binnen de socialistische vakbondskoepel bood dat in het verleden geen garantie op de einduitkomst. Tekenend is echter dat de BBTK ditmaal niet alleen staat met zijn kritiek en eerder een voorbode lijkt te zijn van wat nog komen moet

Peculiar Glitch of PSR J1119-6127 and Extension of the Vortex Creep Model

Glitches are sudden changes in rotation frequency and spin-down rate, observed from pulsars of all ages. Standard glitches are characterized by a positive step in angular velocity ($\Delta\Omega$ $>$ $0$) and a negative step in the spin-down rate ($\Delta \dot \Omega$ $<$ $0$) of the pulsar. There are no glitch-associated changes in the electromagnetic signature of rotation-powered pulsars in all cases so far. For the first time, in the last glitch of PSR J1119-6127, there is clear evidence for changing emission properties coincident with the glitch. This glitch is also unusual in its signature. Further, the absolute value of the spin-down rate actually decreases in the long term. This is in contrast to usual glitch behaviour. In this paper we extend the vortex creep model in order to take into account these peculiarities. We propose that a starquake with crustal plate movement towards the rotational poles of the star induces inward vortex motion which causes the unusual glitch signature. The component of the magnetic field perpendicular to the rotation axis will decrease, giving rise to a permanent change in the pulsar external torque.Comment: accepted by MNRAS, 10 pages, 2 figure

Perdagangan Internasional: Pengaruhnya Terhadap Perubahan Sistem Nilai Budaya Orang Maluku

The involvement of the Moluccan in the International trade and the interaction with the foreign traders has brought the transformation in the civilization of tbe Moluccas. Through these foreign traders sultans and the kings achieving knowledge on religion, trade, seafaring and new technologies. The International trade has created major impacts on the social and cultural life in the moluccas asnit save as a interaction space for countries with variois background and has influenced the original cultural of the Moluccas although the identity of the Moluccas is the existed with the monodualism characteristic. In the perspective of the monodualistic culture every group has to still exist and must depend one another to support every part. As the meaning of one always depends on the existence of the other. In the same time the brotherhood relationship has grew based on tbe mutual benefit principal. This phenomenom was existed as an effort to create the new balance in difference to control the conflict and violence and as a good will to live in peace

THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCHOOL SUPERVISOR’ COMPETENCE IN MAKING SUPERVISORY INSTRUMENTS

This paper was written to share the experience of training activities of senior high school supervisor in district Pangkep. The training aims to help school supervisor equip their knowledge and skills in making supervisory instruments. Training activities have been selected as an alternative solution after holding preliminary study on the problems faced by supervisors in the District Pangkep. Training is given by using explanatory and direct demonstrations as well as equipped with several other methods such as; brainstorming, practice and evaluation of the work. Based on observations during training, seen some of the participants have been able to show a significant increase, while the rest still require additional reinforcement so they can produce a valid and reliable instrument according to the needs of each target schools. It can be concluded that after the training, it is known that the knowledge and ability of the supervisor SMA in the scope of the District Education Office Pangkep about making supervision instruments has increased. The knowledge and skills gained during the training will they apply either individually or together to produce instruments that can increase the supervisor productivity in carrying out their dutie
