This research contributes to investigate a cultural continuity, particularly naming practice, in homogenous Javanese community installing Petangan Jawa (Javanese Calculations). However, common slowly ignore it. study employs descriptive qualitative approach with fieldwork the intention behind name. Therefore, two varieties of Jawa, namely, calculation based on calendar properties and script val...

The concept of Genealogical Sorting Indexes (GSIs) was first introduced by Cummings et al. [1]. Given a set of observations belonging to different groups (represented in the form of a hierarchial tree), the Genealogical Sorting Index (GSI) value obtained for a particular group provides a quantitative measure of how closely the observations belonging to this group have clustered in the given tre...

Electron micrographs of isolated human alpha(2)M-molecules, obtained by the negative contrast technique, revealed morphologically homogenous structures resembling a graceful monogram of the two letters H and I. The modal values for the length and width of the alpha(2)M particles were 170 A and 100 A, respectively. Purified rabbit alphamacroglobulins contained about 80% alpha(1)M- and 20% alpha(...

The frequency distribution of DNA content of human sperm was measured in an automated flow microfluorometer. The flow method measures the DNA content by quantifying the amount of fluorescence emitted by the fluorescent Feulgen stained DNA of single sperm cells suspended in microdroplets. The variability in the mean value for the haploid amount of DNA in sperm from 15 randomly chosen donors was ...

I study a one-way flow connections model in which players are heterogeneous with respect to values and the costs of establishing a link. I first show that values and costs asymmetries are crucial in determining the level of connectedness of a network. Interestingly, unconnected equilibria are asymmetric and central players may emerge. Second, I show that non-singleton components have a wheel ar...

Malic enzyme (ME) was purified as an electrophoretically homogenous protein from Rhodopseudomonas palustris No. 7. The molecular weight of ME was estimated to be 650 kDa and that of its subunit, 86 kDa. ME activity was remarkably enhanced by di- and mono-valent cations, and the K(a) values for Mg(2+) and NH(4)(+) were 0.26 and 0.56 mM respectively. Purified ME used both NAD(+) and NADP(+) as el...
