Malaysian literature in English has just attained its sixtieth anniversary since its modest inception in the late 1940s, initiated by a small group of college and university students in Singapore. Singapore was the academic hub of British Malaya and the only university of the colony was located there, therefore it was natural that a movement in English writing should have started from there. No...

There is an ample number of recommendations, guides and monographs addressing the art of composing and publishing written, oral or visual communications in science and various professions. In order to write an article, autors have to follow certain rules. Presentation of the article (oral or poster presentation) also requires skill, meaning that you have to fulfill certain guidelines and regula...

Pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems is of great importance in surface micropatterning [Grzybowski et al., Soft Matter 1, 114 (2005)], self-organization of cellular micro-organisms [Schulz et al., Annu. Rev. Microbiol. 55, 105 (2001)], and in developmental biology [Barkai et al., FEBS Journal 276, 1196 (2009)]. In this work, we apply the lattice Boltzmann method to study pattern form...

Tangential and radial angles of muons in EAS, a useful concept in investigation of the muon production height, can be used also for the investigation of the muon momenta. A parameter ζ, being a combination of tangential and radial angles, is introduced and its possible applications in investigation of muons in showers are presented.

The EAS-TOP and MACRO Collaboration * We report the analysis of the N e-N µ coincident events collected by the MACRO/EAS-TOP collaboration at the Gran Sasso Laboratories. The result points to a primary composition becoming heavier around the knee of the primary spectrum (in the energy region 10 15 − 10 16 eV). The result is in very good agreement with the measurements of EAS-TOP alone at the su...

The biopsy may very well be the most paramount procedure confronting the dentist and successful tissue diagnosis depends on proper surgical biopsy technique. Yet, how many who are faced with this procedure really know the principles involved and can carry them, out flawlessly as they must be? The practitioner who attempts this procedure without being aware of principles involved may prevent mor...

Section 12 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973 as amended by the Gender Recognition Act 2004 requires transgender people to disclose their ‘gender history’ to the other party to a marriage prior to the marriage ceremony.Failure to do so enables the other party to exit the relationship through nullity proceedings.This article argues that this provision is discriminatory and encroaches on the righ...

An automatic structure for the mapping class group of a surface of finite type was described in [M]. This document is intended as a practical guide to computations using a variant of this automatic structure, in the special case of a once-punctured, oriented surface S. As such, we shall try to be more descriptive and less theoretical than in [M], leaving the reader to consult [M] for detailed p...

My girlfriend and I had sex twice one night ? the second time, we had to change condoms because she was dry and the lubricant had run out. Before I put the second condom on, she asked me to "put it in" without it on for a few seconds; which I did ? not entirely all the way though. I instantly realized the mistake and withdrew. Naturally, as I expect, there is a small chance this could have gott...
