My address this year deals with much the same subject as the Presidential Address of 1944, but from a slightly different and, I fear, less practical point of view. Dr. Pickard Cambridge knows the schools, the universities and the whole educational system far better than I do, and was able to make practical suggestions of real value. I am falling back upon the more general and preliminary question why we should pursue Greek studies at all, and indeed why this Society should not peacefully cease upon the midnight with as little pain as may be convenient. The worst of it is that I know that I am prejudiced; and probably almost everybody in the room shares my prejudices. My appeal is really being made to-day to those who do not need it. I am an old man, and therefore probably attached to the old system. I am speaking on behalf of my own studies, and can hardly help feeling that ‘there is nothing like leather.’ To take a broader and more political line, I belong to the old peaceful world, which could afford to be cultured and liberal and to support a class whose interests were in the pursuit of the higher values, and who, while they lived for the most part industriously and modestly, were not in any feverish anxiety about salaries and wages. That cultivated middle class has been exterminated in many parts of Europe and weakened everywhere, everywhere with disastrous consequences. Even in this country a Minister of the Crown has told us that our day is over; a new and more powerful ‘governing class’ is in the saddle. We do not know how much patience it will have with pursuits that are not economically justified.

Opening Paragraph

Opening ParagraphThe Education Code of 1887 provided for the teaching of art subjects as they were understood in South Kensington at that time—the age of Froebel and Slojd: the aim seems to have been the vague one of ‘hand-and-eye training’. But the purpose for which hand and eye were to be trained does not appear clearly in its instructions, and I am perfectly certain that the bulk of teachers of the older generation do not know of one. One cannot trace in the Code any real policy of artistic development in the country by means of the educational system. ‘Drawing’ was, and is, taught not primarily from the artist's point of view at all, i. e. as a study of form. The study of colour is not taught, nor the elements of design. Now form, colour, and design are the elements of the graphic and plastic art, and one would have thought that they would have been incorporated in a balanced scheme of elementary education. There was, and is, no provision for the training of taste, appreciation, criticism, or for the slightest perception of the horizons of art history.

The purpose of this study is to assess the level of awareness, perception, and willingness that Indonesian Muslims towards waqf and Micro Waqf Banks (MWB). By distributing questionnaires to 104 Muslims, the results show that many Muslims still have a relatively low level of awareness about waqf and MWB. This may be due to the lack of socialization, especially regarding cash waqf and the establishment of MWB. Further findings indicate that the majority of Muslims in Indonesia agree on the establishment of MWB and also agree that MWB can be a solution to suppress the loan shark business so as to improve the welfare of the community, especially the lower middle class. Finally, Indonesian Muslims are willing to contribute to MWB especially if they know how to donate and how MWB operates. A higher level of willingness to contribute to MWB provides a great opportunity for MWB to develop its operations in the future. This research contributes to assisting MWB and Indonesian Waqf Board in developing appropriate socialization strategies to build and develop the potential of waqf in Indonesia.

Self Defence

Self-defence and necessity are central institutions of the General Part of German Penal Law. Numerous problems of considerable practical and theoretical relevance are connected with them. How to deal with “self-defence” and “necessity” is also an indicator of liberality or, on the other hand, of the minimum solidarity and public spirit which a State can concede to its citizens or demand of them. In German criminal theory, “self-defence” and “necessity” are closely connected with the release of the distinction between justification and excuse and all conclusions derived thereof.Instead of elaborating on fundamental or purely theoretical problems concerning self-defence and necessity, an illustration of the contents of the German provisions of self-defence and necessity from a more technical, but nevertheless practical, point of view will be discussed. In the course of the discussion, some differences between the Israeli Draft law and the German law will be pointed out, and some problems which are unsolved in German law and may possibly confront Israeli law in the future will be brought to your attention.

Abstract- This paper takes on how is the effectivity and efficiency of the area, zoning, internal circulation, and space on apartment unit type 2 bedrooms in 5 years span since 1994-2018 because based on data obtained, growth and apartment price is increasing so much that the existence of apartments in the future is predicted to keep increasing. Apartment growth should have produced an efficient and effective unit to gain more clients. Because of that, this research is needed to obtain a more efficient and more effective unit in the future. Based on literature and data from various apartments, 2-bedroom type is the most designed and always built in those apartments. Worksheets or brochures is the first impression of apartment units from clients’ point of view, that is why layout in those brochures will be affecting the market and becoming a benchmark for layout designing in the real unit so the efficiency and effectivity could be seen.To know how effective and efficient the units are by counting the floor efficiency ratio and netto-bruto calculation. Besides, this research is also using minimum standards requirements to support the design of 2 bed rooms apartment units. In this research, the changing factors which are the area, zoning, internal circulation also space in each of the apartment units are to be compared from time to time to get the pattern occurs. The chosen research objects are Taman Rasuna Apartment which is the pioneer of apartment growth in Indonesia and then Wisma Gading Permai, The Majesty, The Summit, Galeri Ciumbuleuit 2, Scientia Residences, M Town Residences, and Branz BSD.This research shows that area, zoning, and layout, internal circulation, and space are affecting the effectivity and efficiency of 2 bed rooms apartment units. The result shows that the highest completion number of effectivity and efficiency in the area, zoning, internal circulation, and space is 75% which in 1998-2012 and the lowest is 50% in 1994 and 2018. From 8 apartments, no unit reaches 100% efficient nor effective because based on factors, there is also none that reach such efficiency and effectivity. Key Words: 2 bed rooms unit, apartment, effectivity, efficiency
