    Lim-inf convergence and its compactness

    No full text
    Abstract- We describe the Mizar formalization of the proof of compactness of lim-inf convergence given in [W33] according to [CCL]. Lim-inf convergence formalized in [W28] is a Moore-Smith convergence investigated in [Y6] and involves the concept of nets. The proof is based on the equivalence of two approaches to convergence in topological spaces: filter convergence and Moore-Smith (net) convergence. The equivalence is worked out in [Y19] and different characterizations of compactness are also given there. These efforts are a continuation of the international project of formalizing the theory of continuous lattices headed by the first author

    'In 27 July 1997, " Thailand market crashes" this was quoted in the New Straits Times. The paper reported that the crash in 1JJaiJand has ca.used panic to foreign fund managers in the ASEAN region. Paul Sager, one of the Investment Manager ca/ls, Datuk Goh requesting some insight as to the recent turmoil happening in the region. "We are getting jittery and the sentiment seems to be fear of a domino effect on the local KLSE" said Paul. "There were reports by large hedge fund managers speculating that there are fundamental weakness in ASEAN and Malaysian economy" adds Paul. Datuk Goh asked Paul's opinion how he and the rest of the fund manager view the Malaysian economy. Paul Sager indicated that the region would be heading for a tough time as the foreign investment community feels there are fundamental weakness especially in the financial system which have yet to be rectified. There were heavy selling on Malaysian currency causing the exchange rates to be devalued by at least 60% as concerns on the Malaysian property sector bursting. There are worries of the Malaysian economy overheating" explains Paul. Paul suggested to Datuk Goh whether he has any plans to to cope with the impending pressures. 1JJe next morning on the 28 July 1997, Datuk called for an emergency Board meeting to discuss on the report he receives. Datuk Goh was especially interested with the figures relating to the loans made to large conglomerates, which have heavy interests in properties. He also wanted to know the actual loans made and the details of the any substantial project the banks are involved directly or jointly finance. Neoh Choo Kean the General Manager of the Bank, reported that BHl Bank has no large loans more than 10 million exposures to any one corporate and they have always finance projects that are near Klang Valley and Urban 81'Cas. Datuk Goh was also interested in the exposure on sh81'C financing. Datuk directed Mr. Neoh to cut down on the lending and imposed on other forms of collateral. "There is need for a clear direction and evaluate our strengths and weakness for us to understand what the chal1enges facing our bank and industry Said Datuk Goh after the reporting. "BHL Bank needs to chart its path clearly and this requires participation by the top management and every employee of the bank. Continue Datuk Goh. independent consultant to be appointed analyzing BHL Banks current situation and identify the possible alternatives as to how best BHL Bank to grow in the board meeting." mooted Datuk The meeting was adjourned On the 5th December 1997, after a detail screening process, the Board decided to engage Mr. Joshua lim as the independent consultant. On 15th January 1998, Bank Negara Malaysia announced that there was three financial institution needing re-capitalization. It was also reported that Sime Bank had suffered RM1.18 billion. On the 2nd February 1998, Bank Negara identified anchor companies for consolidation of the finance companies quoted the Investor Digest February issue. It was reported in that issued Bank Negara Directives was for the finance companies to merger in view of the crisis hitting the banking sector. With an environment of tight liquidity, the banks have to form larger and stronger finance companies. "Said the editor of the Investor Digest February's issue. On the 20th Febrary 1998, Datuk Goh summon Joshua Lim and asked me to begin work immediately taking into account the current scenario and come out with a strategic paper for the Bank. Chairman directives was to study the feasibility of these alternatives and select the best option available to the bank taking into consideration of the internal and external factors surrounding BHL Bank

    No full text
    In this e-mail interview conducted in 2016, author and scholar Shirley Geok-lin Lim addresses the changing social and political conditions in the United States. Lim discusses the affective relationship between aesthetics and politics in her work, the anxiety of multilingual stylistics, and the in-between nature of the transnation. She also reflects on the academic marginalization she has experienced as a result of her immigrant designation and subjectivity, as well as the indirect influence of China and Chineseness on her writing. Commenting on her memoir Among the White Moon Faces, Lim notes the difficulty of titling, and addresses the impact of anglophone literature upon her during her colonial Malaysian upbringing

    In the public, living we see routine activities what is done. The routine activities are religious and non religious. Usually, religious activities are done in majelis ta’lim. Majelis ta’lim that grow in the community can to became alternative for central of islamic education if the managed well. Therefore, the author want to discuss about this issue with expectation to know of factors that cause the failure religious building in majelis ta’lim especially in Natar, so to know activities that required to done so as really became alternative for central of Islamic education. This research is quantitative research with collecting data from majelis ta’lim which became this research object. The collecting data is done with instruments: as observation, interview, and documentation. From this research, we can know that style and methode is done by the teacher is principal key to success in majelis ta’lim. Therefore, the inovation is required in majelis ta’lim activities so that can interest of more pilgrims and make him the alternative for central of Islamic education

    Interactions between LHX3-And ISL1-family LIM-homeodomain transcription factors are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans

    © 2017 The Author(s). LIM-Homeodomain (LIM-HD) transcription factors are highly conserved in animals where they are thought to act in a transcriptional 'LIM code' that specifies cell types, particularly in the central nervous system. In chick and mammals the interaction between two LIM-HD proteins, LHX3 and Islet1 (ISL1), is essential for the development of motor neurons. Using yeast two-hybrid analysis we showed that the Caenorhabditis elegans orthologs of LHX3 and ISL1, CEH-14 and LIM-7 can physically interact. Structural characterisation of a complex comprising the LIM domains from CEH-14 and a LIM-interaction domain from LIM-7 showed that these nematode proteins assemble to form a structure that closely resembles that of their vertebrate counterparts. However, mutagenic analysis across the interface indicates some differences in the mechanisms of binding. We also demonstrate, using fluorescent reporter constructs, that the two C. elegans proteins are co-expressed in a small subset of neurons. These data show that the propensity for LHX3 and Islet proteins to interact is conserved from C. elegans to mammals, raising the possibility that orthologous cell specific LIM-HD-containing transcription factor complexes play similar roles in the development of neuronal cells across diverse species
