Revisiting “Sariah” at Elephantine
Get PDFJeffrey R. Chadwick has previously called attention to the name ŚRYH (Seraiah/Sariah) as a Hebrew woman’s name in the Jewish community at Elephantine. Paul Y. Hoskisson, however, felt this evidence was not definitive because part of the text was missing and had to be restored. Now a more recently published ostracon from Elephantine, which contains a sure attestation of the name ŚRYH as a woman’s name without the need of restoration, satisfies Hoskisson’s call for more definitive evidence and makes it more likely that the name is correctly restored on the papyrus f irst noticed by Chadwick. The appearance of the name Seraiah/Sariah as a woman’s name exclusively in the Book of Mormon and at Elephantine is made even more interesting since both communities have their roots in northern Israel, ca. the eighth–seventh centuries BCE
Basic psychological needs theory: research & application
No full textThis book has been compiled based on the research work written by the sole author Dr Sharifah Sariah Syed Hassan. The contributions of the content include the motivational theories and framework. The implementation of motivational theories in classroom context has been explored and discussed. The empirical evidence on the research framework has also been elaborated. Thus, this book provides a benchmark for future researches in giving guidelines for thesis and directed research writing. This book is handy and useful for light reading and further discussions in advanced statistical procedure such as Structural Equation Modeling. This book has originally been written in 2006. It was further enhanced and updated to sequence the chapters for the guidelines and references for students who want to carry out Structural Equation Model analyses and related research to Self Determination Theory and Basic Psychological Needs Theory
Libretto: Leda and the Swan
Get PDFLibretto: Leda and the Swan, by Sariah Gonzalez (first-year, undeclared) Sariah confronts issues of sexual violence and exploitation in an opera libretto based on the Greek myth of Leda, who was raped by Zeus as he took the form of a swan. In the opening scene, Leda sings a heartbreaking aria, revealing her sense of fear, shame, and vulnerability. Though she was attacked, she feels a sense of blame. Her trauma reverberates through generations: she feels it again as she contemplates her daughter Helen’s impending marriage. Just as Leda was reduced to a sexual object to satisfy Zeus’s lust, so too is Helen treated like a commodity, traded by Aphrodite in order to sway the judge, Paris, in a contest of beauty. Sariah’s libretto reveals bold parallels between the sexual exploitation of women in Greek myth and the culture of entitlement, objectification, and misogyny that prevails on many college campuses. She notes that her opera would be performed by an all-female cast, “denouncing the social construct of gender.” Further, she wishes to cast the character of Helen as a “siren” without juxtaposing her to a “songbird,” since she “did not want Helen’s actions, behaviors, and music to be compared to the behaviors of the patriarchy’s ideal woman.”https://scholarship.richmond.edu/songbirds-sirens/1003/thumbnail.jp
Analisis Pengendalian Internal Terhadap Piutang Usaha pada Jasa Pembiayaan Marga Jaya Sariah (MJS)
Get PDFPenyaluran kredit oleh Jasa Pembiayaan Marga Jaya Sariah (MJS) merupakan sumber pendapatan yang besar yang didapat oleh bank. Pemberian kredit menyebabkan bank tidak menerima kas secara langsung tetapi menimbulkan piutang usaha yang besar. Pengelolaan piutang usaha yang baik akan menghasilkan keuntungan bagi perusahaan dan aktiva perusahaan dapat dilindungi. Mengingat kredit merupakan aktiva lancar perusahaan maka diperlukan sebuah sistem pengendalian internal atas piutang usaha, hal ini supaya bank terhindar dari risiko kerugian akibat piutang tak tertagih dan prosedur pemberian kredit dapat berjalan dengan baik. Jasa Pembiayaan Marga Jaya Sariah (MJS) menerapkan suatu sistem pengendalian atas piutang yang di tuangkan dalam standar operasional perusahan kepada masing-masing seksi yang berkaitan dengan kredit. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis sistem pengendalian internal piutang usaha pada Jasa Pembiayaan Marga Jaya Sariah (MJS) dan apakah sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip COSO. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Pengelohan dan analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan data kualitatif dan analisis deskriptif. Berdasarkan analisis sistem pengendalian internal atas piutang usaha pada Jasa Pembiayaan Marga Jaya Sariah (MJS) diperolah bahwa sistem pengendalian internal atas piutang usaha telah berjalan cukup baik karena telah memisahkan fungsi di setiap bagiannya (fungsi adminstrasi terpisah dari fungsi surveyor). Meskipun masih ada bagian yang sama (fungsi penerimaan hasil tagihan juga fungsi adminstrasi masih sama). Hal ini dibuat agar petugas penagihan yang terkadang tidak kembali ke kantor untuk mengembalikan dokumen penagihan di hari yang sama, dapat disetorkamn kepada admin pada saat di lapangan, dan juga sebagai pengefektifan watu dalam penagihan, mengingat karyawan MJS yang masih terbatas. Sebaiknya MJS segera melakukan perecrutan karyawan, agar supaya tidak adanya double fungtion pada setiap bagiannya.

Wavelet-based temporal models of human activity for anomaly detection in smart robot-assisted environments
Get PDFAbstract. Detecting anomalies in patterns of sensor data is important in many
practical applications, including domestic activity monitoring for Active
Assisted Living (AAL). How to represent and analyse these patterns, however,
remains a challenging task, especially when data is relatively scarce and an
explicit model is required to be fine-tuned for specific scenarios. This paper,
therefore, presents a new approach for temporal modelling of long-term human
activities with smart-home sensors, which is used to detect anomalous
situations in a robot-assisted environment. The model is based on wavelet
transforms and used to forecast smart sensor data, providing a temporal prior
to detect unexpected events in human environments. To this end, a new extension
of Hybrid Markov Logic Networks has been developed that merges different
anomaly indicators, including activities detected by binary sensors, expert
logic rules, and wavelet-based temporal models. The latter in particular allows
the inference system to discover deviations from long-term activity patterns,
which cannot be detected by simpler frequency-based models. Two new publicly
available datasets were collected using several smart-sensors to evaluate the
approach in office and domestic scenarios. The experimental results demonstrate
the effectiveness of the proposed solutions and their successful deployment in
complex human environments, showing their potential for future smart-home and
robot integrated services.Comment: 20 pages, 6 figure
