Good Friend

According to the value fulfillment theory, when we want to help others we should attend to their point of view. This is easier said than done, because we tend to make mistakes about what people really care about, how they understand or conceptualize what they care about, how they understand their options, what counts as success for them, which things matter more in life than others, and how they understand the facts about risk, rewards, and opportunities. This chapter makes the argument that cultivating habits that make us less self-centered and more aware of our limitations is a good way to try to overcome some of the biggest barriers we face as friends who want to help.

Abstract:This article was an assessment of breaking badhabits theory offered by E.R. Guthrie by providing reinforcement from an Islamic teaching point of view so that it could be used as a solution to break bad habits of students in a lesson. There are three methods offered by E.R. Guthrie in breaking bad habits: First, the threshold method. This method is in accordance with the four stages of break the habit of drinking khamrfound in Qur'an. Second, the fatigue method. This method is in accordance with the command to be patient in telling family members to pray as stated in Thāhā verse 132. Third, the incompatible response method. This method is in accordance with Islamic views, one of which is found in surah al-Burûj verses 10-11. In addition to the above three methods, in the view of Islam, there areelementsin a lesson that are no less important, namely the environmental elements, that good or bad the character of an individual canbe formed by the surrounding environment, as implied in the hadith of the Prophet Mohamed about the parable of a good friend such as musk oil traders and bad friends such as the blacksmith's fire blower.

Moral Questions

The approach of my good friend Shachar illustrates the saying that uncompromising aspiration to perfection is a hindrance to progress. To me, his approach, whereby “we will only have our personal intuitions to tell us who was judged correctly, but our personal intuitions may be wrong”, is unacceptable, both in itself, and from the point of view of the conclusions to be drawn therefrom under Shachar's central thesis.A. Ambiguity in Shachar's ThesisBut first, the thesis is not entirely clear. On page 648, he writes as follows: “… I believe that intuitive answers to complex moral questions are not necessarily arbitrary. One choice is probably better or worse than the others, yet it often cannot be rationally and conclusively demonstrated to be so”.

AbstractThere are several reasons to recollect the merits of Gustav Ernst Robert Schulze on the occasion of Fritz Laves' anniversary. Firstly, he had been a good friend of Laves and shared his interest in intermetallic compounds. Secondly, his work on Laves phases, though containing important early results, is less well known for some reasons. Thirdly, Schulze was the founder of a very efficient research centre on intermetallics in Dresden which is still active today. Finally, he introduced Metal Physics at the TU Dresden as a broad subject of bringing together structure and properties of the metallic state from a more fundamental point of view. Later on, this had a clustering effect for the development of materials research institutes in Dresden.

Djeneba is a mother of nine children living in Kadioloko, southern Mali. Since her husband left the family some years ago Djeneba and her children manage the family’s millet fields without him. Recently the eldest boy, Madou, has brought his new wife, Lidy, into the family group. In this film we explore daily life in the compound as Djeneba assumes full responsibility for her family’s needs. Filmmaker, Bata Diallo, herself a Malian, engages Djeneba’s life-world in observational style and by way of intimate conversations. As well as the family we meet Nono, the old chief of Kadioloko. He’s a good friend of Djeneba and a renowned local philosopher with a wry world-view and a sense of humour to match. Djeneba and her family are from the agriculturalist Minyaka ethnic group but we also get to know some Fulani pastoralists who share the village of Kadioloko. “Djeneba” is an hour-long chronicle of quotidian life in rural Mali from a woman’s point of view.

The Impact

The term geo-sciences has been used here to include the disciplines geology, geophysics and geochemistry. However, in order to apply geophysics and geochemistry effectively one must begin with a geological model. Therefore, the science of geology should be used as the basis for lunar exploration. From an astronomical point of view, a lunar terrain heavily impacted with meteors appears the more reasonable; although from a geological standpoint, volcanism seems the more probable mechanism. A surface liberally marked with volcanic features has been advocated by such geologists as Bülow, Dana, Suess, von Wolff, Shaler, Spurr, and Kuno. In this paper, both the impact and volcanic hypotheses are considered in the application of the geo-sciences to manned lunar exploration. However, more emphasis is placed on the volcanic, or more correctly the defluidization, hypothesis to account for lunar surface features.

Potential Use

The origin of mica polytypes has long been a challenging problem for crystal- lographers, mineralogists and petrologists. From the petrological point of view, interest in this field arose from the potential use of layer stacking data to furnish further informations about equilibrium and/or kinetic conditions prevailing during the crystallization of the widespread mica-bearing rocks. From the compilation of previous experimental works dealing with the occurrence domains of the various mica "polymorphs" (1Mr, 1M, 2M1, 2M2 and 3T) within water-pressure vs temperature fields, it became clear that most of these modifications should be considered as metastable for a fixed mica species. Furthermore, the natural occurrence of long-period (or complex) polytypes could not be accounted for by phase considerations. This highlighted the need of a more detailed kinetic approach of the problem and, in particular, of the role growth mechanisms of basal faces could play in this crystallographic phenomenon.

1. Introduction. Studies of radiation damage in ceramics are of interest not only from a fundamental point of view but also because it is important to understand the behavior of ceramics in various practical radiation enyironments- fission and fusion reactors, nuclear waste storage media, ion-implantation devices, outer space, etc. A great deal of work has been done on the spectroscopy of point defects and small defect clusters in ceramics, but relatively little has been performed on defect agglomeration using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in the same kind of detail that has been so successful in metals. This article will assess our present understanding of radiation damage in ceramics with illustrations using results obtained from the authors' work.

Structural Aspects

Osmoregulatory mechanisms in algae were investigated mainly from a physiological point of view (KAUSS 1977, HELLEBUST 1976). In Porphyra two osmotic agents, i. e. floridoside/isofloridoside (KAUSS 1968) and certain ions, such as K+ and Na+(EPPLEY et al. 1960) are considered for osmotic balance. Accumulations of ions (particularly Na+) in the cytoplasm during osmotic adaptation is improbable, because the activity of enzymes is generally inhibited by high ionic concentrations (FLOWERS et al. 1977).The cellular organization of Porphyra was studied with special emphasis on the development of the vacuolar system under different hyperosmotic conditions. Porphyra was cultivated at various strengths of the culture medium ASP 12 (PROVASOLI 1961) ranging from normal to 6 times concentrated (6x) culture medium. Por electron microscopy freeze fracturing was used (specimens fixed in 2% glutaraldehyde and incubated in 30% glycerol, preparation in a BALZERS BA 360 M apparatus), because chemical fixation gave poor results.
