Ida'an-Begak is a Western Malayo-Polynesian language spoken by approximately 6,000 people on the east coast of Sabah, Malaysia, Borneo and belongs to the Sabahan subgroup of the North Borneo subgroup (Blust 1998). Ida'an-Begak has three dialects, Ida'an, spoken in the villages of Segama to the west of Lahad Datu, Ida'an Sungai spoken in the Kinabatangan and Sandakan districts, and Begak spoken in Ulu Tungku, to the east of Lahad Datu (Banker 1984).1 Moody (1993) deals with Ida'an; this paper concentrates on the Begak dialect. In this paper I will present new data gathered in the field and provide an analysis of the allomorphy. The study is based on spontaneous data as well as examples elicited from my language informants.

The area over which the Tsakonian dialect is spoken lies on the east coast of the Peloponnese between the Parnon range and the sea. Its northern boundary is roughly the torrent which, rising on Parnon above Kastánitsa, flows into the sea near Ayios Andréas, its southern the torrent which, also rising on Parnon, passes through Lenídhi to the sea. A mountain range stretches along the coast from end to end of the district, reaching its highest point (1114 metres) in Mt. Sevetíla above the village of Korakovúni. Between Tyrós and Pramateftí, the seaward slopes of this range are gentle and well covered with soil. Behind these coast hills there stretches a long highland plain, known as the Palaiókhora, which, in the north, is fairly well covered with soil, but gradually rises towards the south into a region of stony grazing land, and terminates abruptly in the heights above Lenídhi. The high hill of Oríonda rises out of the Palaiókhora to the west and forms a natural centre-point of the whole district. Behind it stretching up to the bare rock of Parnon, is rough hilly country, cut here and there by ravines and offering but rare patches of cultivable land.

Mr Smith of Jordanhill next read a paper on the direction of the striae on rocks and boulders in the West of Scotland.It had generally been supposed that the cause, whatever it was, which lodged the erratic block beds in their present position had proceeded from the north and west.This was true with respect to the basin of the Clyde and the east coast of Scotland; but on the western coast of Argyllshire, at Loch Crinan and Appin he had observed that the strike side (stoss seite) of the rocks pointed to the east, and the lee side (lee seite) to the west, shewing that, in these cases, the direction of the moving force was from east to west.

INTRODUCTIONIn 1976 the Fisheries Laboratory, Lowestoft, carried out 13 plankton sampling cruises off the north-east coast of England. They spanned the months February-November. From these cruises Harding et al. (1978) described the distributions of surface chlorophyll and nutrients and the production offish eggs and larvae. Reynolds (1978) described in more detail the distributions of chlorophyll and phaeopigments throughout the year, and Horwood (1982) detailed the distribution of zooplankton biomass. This study presents the species composition of the algae from a small region of the survey area illustrated in Fig. 1.

As a contribution to our knowledge of the formation of these very interesting “natural embankments of the sea,” I may point to a little bay in Anglesea, immediately westward of the Bryn Ddu Limestone quarries on the north-east coast of Anglesea, about two miles and a half westward of Puffin Island. This little bay is not more than about a furlong across, and may be roughly described as semicircular in form, lying nearly due west to east from point to point. From being in miniature as it were, the ridge can be readily studied, and it is very striking to see how, commencing in the westward as a beach, it gradually rises into a ridge having very steep sides. No less remarkable is the way in which the stones increase in size as the ridge does in height. At the west end it may be described as composed of Limestone pebbles, with here and there a boulder, while at the east end it is built up almost entirely of large limestone boulders and blocks, many containing from one to two cubic feet and some more. Intermixed there are boulders from the size of the closed hand and upwards. The larger blocks are sub-angular and rounded, and no doubt get gradually worn down smaller and rounder, until they become “boulders.” by being moved about, by the sea; but some on the other hand, being thrown over on to the back of the bank, cannot be further affected by the waves. In this ridge, as I have pointed out is the case with the Chesil Bank, the stones follow the law of the bank itself, the largest being collected to form the highest part of the bank, which in both occurs where the wave-action is most intense.

Centre Of Rotation

A geometrical fit of the land masses of northern Europe, Canada and Greenland has been constructed by Dr A. G. Smith using the method devised by Sir Edward Bullard and M r J. E. Everett. The method involves taking points of latitude and longitude on the 500 fm. line at intervals of about 30 miles along the two coasts to be fitted. Young features such as oceanic islands are ignored. By a method of successive approximation, the computer ‘homes in ’ on to the centre of rotation which gives the minimum root mean square misfit between the rotated coastlines j the misfit being measured as the discrepancy of longitude relative to the centre of rotation. In this manner the 500 fm. line along the east coast of Greenland has been fitted to that of northwestern Europe to form one unit. This unit, that is, the 500 fm. line of the west coast of Greenland and the Channel approaches have been fitted on to the 500 fm. line of Canada. Maps of this fit drawn as a conical projection with two standard parallels of latitude will be presented and will show the geochronological patterns across the reconstructed land masses.

In response to pressure from the Colonial Office and whaling interests for improvement of the Admiralty charts of South Georgia, the Hydrographer of the Navy despatched a surveying ship to operate there during the 1960–61 summer season. Priority was given to a thorough survey of the waters surrounding the western extremities of the island in order to facilitate the shortest passage between the whaling grounds in the west and the whaling stations on the north-east coast. Other commitments were the landing of scientists in co-operation with the Administration and, as opportunity offered, general improvement of the existing charts with particular reference to the coastal shipping routes.

This research porposes to understand growth and spread of population in Province of North Sumatra. The method used here is decriptive analysis of secondary data with the spatial approach. Whereas the object of research are the number of population, the population growth, and spread of population of North Sumatra Province based on 2010 census of Indonesian pupulation. The outcome of research represents that the population growth of Province of North Sumatra from 2000 to 2010 average of 1,22 percent per year. Then, the highest population growth found in Regency of Middle Tapanuli (2,46 percent), followed by Regency of Karo (2,17 percent), and South Tapanuli Regency (2,12 percent). Meanwhile the lowest population growth found in Siantar Town (-029 percent) and followed by Toba Samosir Regency (0,38 percent) and Simalungun Regency (-0,46 percent). As the spread of pupulation in the North Sumatra Province is not prevalent, as the settlements spreads nearly 62,87 percent on the east coast region, whereas only 3,05 percent on the west coast, and the rest 4,85 percent on the Nias Islands.

During surveys of rocky shores in Shetland, the Australasian barnacle Elminius modestus was found at 3 out of 42 transect sites and at 6 out of 11 shores searched for its presence. Large populations were present only in Vidlin Voe with a few individuals present at other sites including Lerwick Harbour. These observations extend the northern recorded limit of distribution of E. modestus by approximately 450 km.The spread of the Australasian barnacle Elminius modestus Darwin along the coasts of the British Isles has been followed with interest by marine biologists since the animal was first found in the region of Portsmouth in 1946. Crisp (1958) describes the spread of Elminius up to 1957 and reviews the factors which are important in encouraging or restricting the spread of the species. On the west coast of Scotland, Elminius is common in the Clyde and a few individuals have been recorded on settling panels in Dunstaffnage Bay near Oban (Barnes & Stone, 1972). On the east coast of Scotland, Elminius is known to be common in the Firth of Forth and a few individuals have been recorded from the Tay Estuary (Jones, 1961). Thus, the previous recorded northern limit of distribution of Elminius modestus lies at about 56° 30′ N. Our brief report describes how Elminius has now been found in the northernmost part of the British Isles.As a part of the programme designed to monitor the effects of the oil terminal now being built at Sullom Voe on the north-east coast of the Shetland mainland, we have been concerned with the survey of plant and animal populations on rocky shores.

INTRODUCTIONUntil recently only two marine members of the phylum Tardigrada were known to occur in Britain. Echiniscoides sigismundi (Schultze), was found associated with mussels (Green, 1950) and intertidal barnacles (Crisp & Hobart, 1954). The interstitial species, Batillipes mirus Richters, was located at beaches in North Wales (Boaden, 1963) and Strangford Lough in Northern Ireland (Boaden, 1966).Interstitial tardigrades have been reported from several localities around the North Sea. The fauna of the German coast is particularly well studied; Schultze, 1867; Richters, 1908, 1909; Schulz, 1935, 1951, 1953; Grell, 1937; Remane, 1940; Freidrich, 1963; Riemann, 1966a, b; Schmidt, 1969. This German fauna includes three species of Batillipes and single representatives of five other genera. In addition, E. sigismundi and B. mirus have been found in Norway (Tambs-Lyche, 1939–40). Along the French coast of the English Channel, eight species from six genera are reported. While most studies originated at RoscofT, including Cuénot, 1892; Cantacuzène, 1951; Guèrin, 1960; Swedmark, 1951, 1955, 1956a; Swedmark & Teissier, 1967; Thulin, 1942, two species of Batillipes have been located elsewhere on the northern coast of France (Renaud-Debyser & Salvat, 1963).In recent surveys of beaches in Britain, additional tardigrades have been located. Gray & Rieger (1971) reported their occurrence at several beaches on the north-east coast of Yorkshire, especially at Stoupe Beck, Robin Hood's Bay and Filey Beach near Scar-borough. Also, A. D. Mclntyre has found them in his collections at Firemore Bay in Loch Ewe on the west coast of Scotland. This paper describes specimens generously provided from these two studies.

Da’ie is an important group in the spreading of Islam during the period of sultanate of Brunei and Sulu before British Colony Era. The domination of sultanates has given a positive impact to the spread of da’wah in Sabah (known as North Borneo). The da’i have succeeded to bring a harmonious spiritual need among the locals in Sabah. Islamisation has encouraged comprehensive way of life from legal, economy and politic aspects. This dynamic nature is shown through the effort of Islamisation. It can be seen with the acceptance of Islam from the local community of Sabah (North Borneo); who lived in east coast through the influence of Sultanate of Sulu and flourishing in the west coast of Sabah through the Sultanate of Brunei. Therefore, this study aims to identify the da’wah methods that are a factor to Islamization in Sabah. The design of this study is a literature review with using content analysis of the materials on the study topic. The findings show that there are five methods of da'wah that were highlighted in Islamization in Sabah before the British era. It is an adaptation of the preacher to local life, approaching the ruling class, through marriage and through trade activities, and the factor of the superiority of the sufi preachers.
