<p>This article examines the doctrine of marriage in Wetu Telu society in<br />Bayan, North Lombok. According to the community marriage is carried out<br />by three steps: perondongan, mepadik lamar, and selarian which is finished<br />with some rituals, such as menjojok, memulang, sejati, pemuput selabar,<br />akad nikah, sorong serah, nyongkolan, and balik onos nae. The marriage<br />ritual is led in accordance with Islamic teachings by the Head of Office of<br />Religious Affairs. <br />In spite of referring to Islamic sharia, the Wetu Telu also strongly holds<br />the teaching of their ancestors which is more identical with Siva-Buddhist<br />teaching. After a long process of acculturation with Hinduism, the later<br />takes a part in marriage process within the Wetu Telu. Therefore, the mar-<br />riage concept carried out by the Wetu Telu is a combination of Siva-Budhist <br />(as the religion of indigenous people) and Balinese Hinduism carried out by<br />Balinese kingdom which had been mixed with Islamic teachings that later<br />become local tradition. This local tradition then does create social stratification, <br />marriage procedures and marriage procession. The local wisdom of marriage among the Wetu Telu has a potential role to strengthen religious<br />harmony in multicultural society.</p><p> </p>

Abstract The Popeye domain-containing gene family encodes a novel class of cAMP effector proteins in striated muscle tissue. In this short review, we first introduce the protein family and discuss their structure and function with an emphasis on their role in cyclic AMP signalling. Another focus of this review is the recently discovered role of POPDC genes as striated muscle disease genes, which have been associated with cardiac arrhythmia and muscular dystrophy. The pathological phenotypes observed in patients will be compared with phenotypes present in null and knockin mutations in zebrafish and mouse. A number of protein–protein interaction partners have been discovered and the potential role of POPDC proteins to control the subcellular localization and function of these interacting proteins will be discussed. Finally, we outline several areas, where research is urgently needed.

In serial memory for spatial information, some studies showed that recall performance suffers when the distance between successive locations increases relatively to the size of the display in which they are presented (the path length effect; e.g., Parmentier et al., 2005) but not when distance is increased by enlarging the size of the display (e.g., Smyth & Scholey, 1994). In the present study, we examined the effect of varying the absolute and relative distance between to-be-remembered items on memory for spatial information. We manipulated path length using small (15″) and large (64″) screens within the same design. In two experiments, we showed that distance was disruptive mainly when it is varied relatively to a fixed reference frame, though increasing the size of the display also had a small deleterious effect on recall. The insertion of a retention interval did not influence these effects, suggesting that rehearsal plays a minor role in mediating the effects of distance on serial spatial memory. We discuss the potential role of perceptual organization in light of the pattern of results.
