Operasi Pasukan F dalam pembanterasan Parti Komunis Malaya (PKM) di Semenanjung Malaysia 1971-1989
No full textArtikel ini memaparkan mengenai kewujudan dan operasi Pasukan Rahsia Unit Cawangan Khas Polis Di Raja Malaysia (PDRM) iaitu Pasukan E3F atau dikenali juga dengan nama Pasukan F dalam misi membanteras pengganas komunis ketika kebangkitan kedua PKM pada tahun 1968-1989 di Semenanjung Malaysia. Kegagalan pemberontakan bersenjata ketika Darurat 1948-1960 memberi ruang kepada PKM untuk melakukan kebangkitan kedua. Lantaran itu, pasukan keselamatan negara khususnya PDRM menerusi Pasukan F merangka dan merancang strategi tersusun yang penuh dengan taktikal berhelah dalam usaha melakukan penghapusan terhadap PKM. Kehebatan dan kepakaran Pasukan F dalam menumpaskan pengganas komunis dilakukan dalam operasi-operasi rahsia. Oleh kerana kerahsiaan yang tinggi, kewujudan Pasukan F tidak pernah didedahkan kepada umum sama ada dalam bentuk penceritaan atau penerbitan. Kerahsiaan pasukan ini adalah atas faktor keselamatan. Oleh sebab kewujudan pasukan ini tidak pernah dibukukan sebelum ini, kajian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan kaedah penyelidikan temubual dengan individu yang terlibat secara langsung dalam operasi yang dijalankan. Hasil kajian ini mendapati bahawa kehebatan dan kepakaran Pasukan F dalam melakukan gerakan berhelah terhadap pembanterasan komunis sehingga membawa kepada perletakan senjata. Seterusnya merintis kepada Perjanjian Damai Hat Yai pada 2 Disember 1989
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt
No full textJersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works
Logarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection
No full textWe report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either

Mapping the Discipline of the Olympic Games An Author-Cocitation Analysis
No full textThe authors conducted an author cocitation analysis on prominent authors writing about the Olympics during the 1990s. Author cocitation is an established bibliometric technique that can be used to measure the relative similarities of topics written about by the cited authors. This enables a visual representation of the “intellectual space” of the discipline, in this case the Olympics, to be created for the period under review. So core and peripheral research areas are identified, along with their major contributors. The representation appears as a two-dimensional cluster-enhanced map. Subject expertise was then applied to the results to place labels on the generated clusters of authors and their topics
Characterization of a naturally occurring truncated Dicer
No full textDicer is central to small RNA silencing pathways, thus playing an important role in physiological and pathological states. Recently, a number of mutations in dicer gene have been identified in diverse types of cancer, implicating Dicer in oncogenic cooperation. Here we report on the properties of a rare splice variant of the human dicer gene, occurring in neuroblastoma cells, and not detectable in normal tissues. Due to the skipping of one exon, the alternatively spliced transcript encodes a putative truncated protein, t-Dicer, lacking the dsRNA-binding domain and bearing altered one of the two RNase III catalytic centers. The ability of the exon-depleted t-dicer transcript to be translated in vitro was first investigated by the expression of flagged t-Dicer in human cells. We found that t-dicer transcript could be translated in vitro, albeit not as efficiently as full-length dicer transcript. Then, the possible enzymatic activity of t-Dicer was analyzed by an in vitro dicing assay able to distinguish the enzymatic activity of the individual RNase III domains. We showed that t-Dicer preserved partial dicing activity. Overall, the results indicate that t-dicer transcript could produce a protein still able to bind the substrate and to cleave only one of the two pre-miRNA strands. Given the increasing number of mutations reported for dicer gene in tumours, our experimental approach could be useful to characterize the activity of these mutants, which may dictate changes in selected classes of small RNAs and/or lead to their aberrant maturation
The factor affecting crude palm oil price in Malaysia / Ezza Nazzira Roslan
No full textCrude palm oil (CPO) has the highest yielding vegetables oil crop making it extremely productive. Malaysia is the one of the world's biggest palm oil exporter. As the proof, in 2020, Malaysia represented 25.8% and 34.3% or world's palm oil creation and products, separately. Whenever considered of different oils and fats created in the country, Malaysia represented 9.1 and 19.7 of the world's all out creation and products of oils and fats around the same time MPOC (2021). As a results palm oil is the world's least expensive vegetable oil. There are many components that might influence the progression of crude palm oil price in Malaysia. It could be influenced by inward or outer elements. The study look at relationship between crude palm oil price and independent variables found in this study which is export , production, exchange rate and soybeans oil price. The review directed showed that the majority of the factor that affecting the fluctation of crude palm oil price in Malaysia from the year 2010 until 2020 which drastically has affected many changes in palm oil prices. The approach used to quantify the outcome is by utilizing Eviews program. The multipe linear regression test is been conducted through using t-test and f-fest. Under the assumption test conducted, it was included R-squared and normality test.
