Mengorganisir Sampah yang Tercemar di TPS Masyarakat Dusun Karanglangon Desa Leran Wetan Kecamatan Palang Kabupaten Tuban

Waste is leftover material that is considered to have no economic value, but its existence cannot be avoided in people's social life. In Karanglangon Hamlet, the increase in population that occurs every year increases the volume of waste produced. As the population increases, household waste production and other activities also increase, thereby exacerbating waste management problems in the region. If not managed properly, the increasing amount of waste can have various negative impacts, both on public health and the surrounding environment, such as air, land and water pollution. This problem demands more attention from various parties to find appropriate and sustainable solutions. This research aims to identify in more depth the problems related to waste management at the Dusun Karanglangon TPS using the PAR (Participatory Action Research) approach method. The research results revealed that the condition of the waste at the TPS had a significant negative impact on the surrounding environment. The main causes are limited facilities, minimal budgets, and inadequate waste management standards, resulting in the accumulation of waste and increasingly severe environmental pollution.

The Concurrent Implications of Government Officials in Indonesia are Viewed from the Concept of Good Governance

Large countries generally have territory, population, government, and sovereignty. The state is literally a construction created by humans regarding the pattern of relations between people in social life organized in such a way as to fulfill interests and achieve common goals. The government in running the wheels of government has received a lot of attention from the public. One of the highlights is the concurrent position of government officials. In Indonesia, many concurrent officials can certainly have potential conflicts of interest. This is interesting to research, which is related to 2 (two) main issues, namely: how is the concurrent arrangement of positions for government officials in Indonesia? and how are the implications of concurrent positions of government officials in Indonesia viewed from the concept of Good Governance? The research was conducted using normative legal research methods and using conflict of interest theory. The results showed that there are arrangements that prohibit concurrent positions and also arrangements that allow concurrent positions which of course can cause potential conflicts of interest. Concurrent positions in terms of the concept of Good Governance directly violate the general principles of good governance, there will be potential for seepage of information and / or policy assistance for those concerned. Therefore, new laws and regulations are needed that must strictly prohibit concurrent positions for legal unity and avoid conflicts of interest for government officials.

New Worlds Arise: Online Trust and Safety

Over the past two decades around the world, people's social lives are increasingly occurring within online digital spaces. Throughout this transition, social media platforms have been struggling to govern an increasing number of complex social phenomena that have carried over from our offline world to these new social platforms, ranging from bullying and harassment to the sale of illicit goods. In their attempts to build out systems to govern these issues, many platforms have drawn inspiration from models borrowed from the offline world familiar to criminologists. In this review, we draw attention to the field of online trust and safety. We provide an overview of the ways platforms have developed tools and systems to govern the people, content, and interactions that take place on their platforms while also looking at the way the field itself has developed rapidly over the past few years. Lastly, we look at research that exposes opportunities for promising paths forward to govern these digital social spaces, highlighting the ways that criminology research can positively contribute toward building vital online communities.

ETHNO-CULTURAL NATURE OF NAMES RELATED TO SACRED PLACES IN SYR REGION

Any nation's unique identity, traditions, material and spiritual heritage, which have formed since ancient times, are a reflection of the life path of that nation. The heritage from ancient times is not only a simple witness of history for today's generation but also a high pillar of our modern culture. Our goal is to increase the need to study and master the material and spiritual heritage through ethnocultural analysis of the names related to sacred places, introducing onyms, previously excluded from research, into scientific discourse. To achieve this objective, it will be essential to solve the following tasks: Separation of the names related to the public and social life of people in the country into several groups; Classify the names of sacred places based on their lexical-semantic types. The methods of analysis, systematization, ethno linguistic analysis of language data, and descriptive approaches were used during the research. An overview of the works of domestic and foreign scientists of the mentioned nature was made. The need to study and promote sacred places is that they have essential historical, cultural and social-political significance. Sacred places show the depth of the roots of ethnic consciousness and the people's high spiritual level; they are also considered one of the key mechanisms of restoration and renewal of ethnic, historical, cultural and religious memory. Twelve objects along the Syr are included in the list of sacred places of Kazakhstan. They are: Shirik-Rabat town, Zhankent town, Begim Ana tower, Zhent, Syganaq town, Oqshy ata mausoleum, Qorasan ata mausoleum, Tolegetai-Qylyshty Ata mausoleum, Zhanqozha batyr mausoleum, Buqarbai batyr mausoleum, Qorqyt Ata monument complex, icon of Mother of God dedicated to the Sacred Kazan Cathedral (Sacred Kazan Cathedral Icon of God's Mother). Some places are not included in this list. Word formation and lexical-semantic analysis of the names of sacred places were made, and their features were highlighted. Although sacred places in the Syr region are studied from a historical-archaeological, literary, and ethnographic point of view, the article was based on studying them from an ethnolinguistic point of view in connection with the national values characteristic of the ethnos.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on reproductive intentions and contraceptive use among females in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Pandemics have affected many people's social and emotional lives. Conception planning, contraceptive usage, and pregnancy intentions are activities with minimal research. This study is the first to evaluate how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced reproductive plans and contraceptive use among women during the pandemic in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in 2022. A cross-sectional survey was conducted by sending an online questionnaire to married women from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The questionnaire included demographics, personal obstetrics information, changes in pregnancy intentions owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, and questions about contraceptive usage. Qualitative data were presented as frequencies, and a χ2 test was performed to determine the relationships among the variables. A total of 639 women enrolled in the study; most participants were 25-34 years old, and most indicated they changed their reproductive intentions during the pandemic (49%). Family planning accounted for 25.8% of participants who changed their reproductive intentions. Only 17.5% changed their choices because of fear of the COVID-19 impact. The percentage of women using contraception was significantly reduced during the lockdown, to 36.8%. Oral contraceptive pills were the most frequently used method during the curfew period (17.5%). The COVID-19 lockdown affected the reproductive intentions of most women in Jeddah, and it significantly reduced contraceptive use.

Cultural Comparisons: A Comparison of Tea Drinking Traditions in Java and Sichuan

Tea is a type of drink that has been around since ancient times. In fact, in some regions, tea has become an integral part of culture and an inseparable part of people's social life, and also contains philosophical values. In each region, tea has its own characteristics. This is based on the variety and type of tea leaves themselves as well as the way they are served which are different in each region. The diversity of types of tea and forms of presentation certainly cannot be separated from differences in the environment where the tea leaves grow, as well as the origin of the tea in a particular region. These two factors refer to the practice of drinking tea and the different ways of serving tea in each region. China will immediately come to mind when you hear the word tea, because its tea culture is still strong today. On the one hand, Indonesia still adheres to its tea drinking culture. Tea has its own position in the traditions and practices of several cultures in China and Indonesia, especially in the Sichuan region and the island of Java. The aim of this research is to explore some of the differences that exist in tea drinking traditions in Java and Sichuan. We will also explore various cultural aspects that influence the practice of drinking tea, such as how tea is served, the type of tea used, related customs, and the symbolic meaning attached to the tea drinking ritual itself. So that in the end, readers will be able to appreciate the cultural diversity that exists in this world and encourage the exchange of knowledge and experience in tea drinking practices in both regions. The research method that is used is qualitative method of library research, namely collecting data by searching for sources and reconstructing information from various sources such as books, journals and existing research. The findings from this research are differences in the presentation and way of enjoying tea in Java and Sichuan.

Covering the land with oil palm: revelation, value, and landownership among the Kairak‐speaking Baining of Papua New Guinea

AbstractThis article explores how a displaced Papua New Guinean people decided to lease their customary land for oil palm plantation farming to restore their land use rights and resolve ongoing disputes with migrant settlers. By transforming the landscape into a territorialized space as a plantation, Kairak‐speaking Baining hoped to gain actual landownership status and control over their land, which in turn, they believed, could bring them the development they had long dreamed of. I argue that Kairak conceptions about the plantation as a tool to reveal their landownership and remove the settlers drew on Melanesian notions about covering and revelation, changing perceptions of value, and discourse around ‘settlerhood’ and ‘nativism’, and show how agribusiness capital expansion strategies leverage regional politics of identity and autochthony. By illustrating how the plantation expansion unfolded differently in this region, the material offers new insights on the Plantationocene, global land grabs, dispossession and migration, and reaffirms the consequences reported elsewhere in the world where enclosures of exclusion lead to forceful rearrangements of people's social and economic lives, leaving their hopes and plantation promises unrealized.

Challenges in Cybercrime Prevention and Legal Frameworks in India: An Analytical Study

The rise of cybercrime has been a major problem for countries, businesses, and people all around the world. The purpose of this study is to shed light on the difficulties in enforcing laws against cybercrime in India and to highlight the critical need for such a framework in order to stem the tide of this rapidly expanding threat. There has been an upsurge in cybercrime in India in recent years. The fact that it has such a detrimental effect on people's social and economic life makes it a very worrying issue. Data from cybercrime cases prosecuted in India's most susceptible states and cities under the IT Act and the Indian Penal Code formed the basis of our study. In addition, we have examined the data of cybercrime instances perpetrated by individuals of varying ages. In addition to outlining the many reasons for cybercrime and the crimes themselves, this article also provides crucial recommendations on how to reduce cybercrime. Both the investigation and punishment of cybercriminals and the general deterrent against cybercrimes are weakened by these obstacles. To tackle the unique problems posed by cybercrime in India, this study acknowledges the need of a thorough legislative framework and suggests important components that should be included in the laws.

The Impact of Female University Teachers' Marital Satisfaction on Teaching Ability: Moderated by Managerial Positions

Work and life are two important and indispensable components of people's social life. Marriage, as a necessary part of most people's life stage, and past studies have also indicated the relevance of marital satisfaction to people's job satisfaction and physical and mental health. The present study aims to quantitatively examine whether their marital satisfaction has an impact on teaching ability from a single-sex perspective among married female university teachers in Guangxi, China. This study employed a quantitative method using the regression method on 556 responses to test the variables relationship by SPSS26. The researcher found that female teachers' marital satisfaction had a positive effect on their teaching abilities; however, female teachers' managerial positions did not moderate the relationship between their marital satisfaction and their teaching ability in the classroom. The exploration of relationships in this study confirms the feasibility of single-sex research for future research regarding the difference between male and female teachers in related areas. At the same time, it is hoped that this study will enable universities and academic faculties to pay attention to the living conditions of teachers and to optimise policies and support for teachers in terms of working hours, career development and work-life balance from a gender perspective.

Energy Efficiency Analysis: Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) Mosque

Humanity has experienced many changes and developments throughout history. These developments have emerged to increase the comfort of people in social life. With each development, new requirements emerged, and the necessity to continue them was the natural result. One of these is the Industrial Revolution which is the crucial trigger and the results affecting our day of technological developments. With this, the concept of energy and its sustainability has been discussed. Although energy has always been the most important need of people, with this revolution, there has been concern about the continuity of the living environment. Although the concept of environmental sustainability was introduced to the literature in the 1980s, the examples, where the idea has been applied are seen throughout history. Ankara Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) mosque is one of them and was built in the 13th century. It has important features that come from the structural material and architectural details for the period it was built in terms of energy efficiency and management. This article aims to analyze the structural features of the Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) mosque and to discuss what can be done to integrate contemporary technologies according to its requirements.

Study of Festival Folklore in Ancient Poems in Chinese Textbooks for Senior Middle Schools: On the Festive Folklore Teaching Strategy for The Charm of A Maiden Singer

As an intangible cultural heritage, festival folk customs are encountering internal and external troubles. Although it is faded by Chinese people in social life, it is eternally preserved in literary works. According to the new curriculum standard, “cultural inheritance and understanding” is one of the core literacy aspects of Chinese subjects in senior high schools. On this basis, this study probes into the strategy of using Chinese teaching to inherit the “intangible cultural heritage” of festival folk customs. First of all, the connotation of festival folklore should be clarified. Secondly, the content analysis can be used to explore the distribution of festival folk customs in ancient poems in the unified version of Chinese textbooks in senior high schools. Specifically, when it comes to the structure, festival folk customs are non-systematic with limited appearances in ancient poems. From the aspect of content, festival folk customs briefly introduce the festivals and their cultural connotations embodied in the textbooks but neglected by current society. As for the function, festival folk customs can be analyzed from three carriers such as time, folk and emotions for classification. Finally, taking The Charm of A Maiden Signer as an example, the feasible way of integrating festival folk customs into the teaching of ancient poems is proposed. Compared with the general teaching plan, such a design is original, which allows students to experience the national aesthetic tradition of “harmony between man and nature” during the Mid-Autumn Festival with the unique beauty endowed by Dongting Lake. Taking festivals and folk customs as a leadin of teaching can dig out the cultural connotation contained in ancient poems more deeply and accurately, so as to expand the profundity of teaching and improve students’ ability to appreciate ancient poems.

BUILDING BRIDGES THROUGH PLAY: AN INVESTIGATION INTO MONOPOLY GO! AS CATALYST FOR YOUTH SOCIAL INTERACTION

This study investigates how young people's social life are impacted by Monopoly Go! in the context of digital gaming. With the goal of analysing the game's communication elements, engagement reasons, and social repercussions, it fills knowledge gaps about the societal ramifications of digital games on social interaction. The literature study examines the evolution of Monopoly Go! from a classic board game to a mobile app, emphasising the game's ability to foster social connections even when players are separated by great distances. Through qualitative techniques including content analysis and in-depth interviews, the study looks into how the game affects young people's social connections. The game's ability to start talks, bring friends back together after the pandemic, and encourage peer influence and teamwork motivations is demonstrated by the findings. On the other hand, disputes that occur during in-game exchanges and the impact of in-game item commercialization on fair play are causes for concern. Future study should diversify its participant pool, ethical norms for community behaviour should be put in place, and the effects of commercialization on social dynamics inside gaming communities should be investigated. These revelations provide light on the intricate social dynamics, interpersonal relationships, and moral dilemmas present in online gaming environments.

POSSIBILITIES AND POTENTIAL OF PROMOTING A MICROENVIRONMENT BASED ON A CULTURE OF PEACE IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

Research reveals that the culture of peace is an actual phenomenon of people's social life, which is not only an approach to the prevention of violence and an alternative to the culture of war and violence but also creates a society that is probably only talked about in the context of utopia. In 2024, of course, it is not worth dreaming about utopia, however, educating the teaching staff about a micro-environment based on a culture of peace and its influence on the organization's operation contributes to the achievement of the goals of the learning process and a human-centered work environment. At the same time, an influential educational resource on cooperation and conflict resolution, decision-making, all human rights, communication, and information exchange is being developed. The publication highlights the possibilities of promoting a microenvironment based on a culture of peace, using the gamification process, and its pedagogical and psychological possibilities in improving the microenvironment of educational institutions in Liepāja, describing the empirical experience from case studies where was survey and game “Peace Please” sessions. The study aims to analyze the possibilities of using the gamification process based on the culture of peace in improving the microenvironment of educational institutions in Liepāja. The study results provide information about the game "Peace, please!" possibilities of use in educational institutions, indicating the essential thing common to the culture of peace and the organization's microenvironment. Problems specific to the micro-environment in educational institutions are identified and solutions are proposed for promoting a micro-environment based on a culture of peace.

Sustainable Workforce in a Green Era: Indonesia’s Energy Sector Transition

The purpose of this study is to determine and analyze the effect of renewable energy transition variables and economic viability in the Indonesian employment industry on the balance of business sustainability through social and environmental development as an intervening variable. The subjects of this study are small, medium, and large industry owners in Indonesia, totaling 5,993,566 business units. The variables in this study are independent variables, namely the variables of renewable energy transition and economic viability in the Indonesian labor industry, while the dependent variable is the balance of business sustainability, and the intervening variable is the variable of social and environmental considerations. The results of the data analysis are made through SEM analysis through SMART PLS 4.0 software. From the results of existing research, it is concluded that partially renewable energy transition variables and viability variables in the Indonesian labor industry have a direct effect on the balance of business sustainability and social and environmental consideration variables. Simultaneously, the renewable energy transition variable and the viability variable in the Indonesian labor industry indirectly affect the business sustainability balance variable through social and environmental considerations as intervening variables. With the renewable energy transition process, it will have an impact on people's good social lives because there is no threat of environmental damage or natural disasters, so the environment is safe, the industry creates a technology transfer process, and it increases economic viability in the labor industry in Indonesia in order to create quality human resources. With this transition process, trained human resources are needed and are also able to adapt well to the transition process and technology transfer in order to balance the sustainability of industrial businesses.

E-learning and AI search decision based on deep learning algorithms application in economic and legal optimization

Economic law is closely related to people's daily social life, which can protect and supervise people's daily and economic behavior, and has fairness and justice. In recent years, deep learning algorithms have significantly developed in the field of economic law. By utilizing this algorithm, not only can we effectively solve relevant problems in economic law, but we can also further optimize economic law efficiently. Based on this, we introduced the algorithm into search decision-making in artificial intelligence and successfully constructed an optimization model for economic law. Firstly, this article analyzes the semi supervised clustering algorithms in deep learning and proposes a learning model for comparing the algorithms. After optimization, a heuristic search algorithm with good performance was obtained. We will design the artificial intelligence search decision technology based on deep learning algorithms into the economic and legal model to obtain the final optimization model. A comparative experiment was conducted on the dataset, and the results showed that the optimization model constructed in this article provides certain assistance for the improvement of China's economic and legal system.

Adaptive, Sociable and Ready for Anything: Undergraduate Students Are Resilient When Faced with Technological Change

Attending university is an important time for many young people's social lives. But changes are afoot with new innovative digital higher-education experiences being built, shifting students' social lives further online. However, it is unclear how a longer-term shift to a digital university ecosystem will impact students and their social relations and how current technologies could amplify their social experience. We report a focus group study investigating the impact of a primarily digital university experience on the social relationships of incoming undergraduates. In line with existing research, we demonstrate how technology-mediated communications can benefit some aspects of students' social relations and less so for others. Our novel contribution is evidence of students' remarkable adaptiveness when facing an online-only university experience. Crucially, our participants identified and utilised the nuances of different online platforms to start and maintain new relationships. This way, they preserved their ability to nurture social relationships, even when dealing with an unexpected learning environment. We provide design recommendations for future metaversities and discuss students' resilience in sustaining personal relationships that can inform online-centric university models.

The relationship between childhood psychological abuse and social media addiction among college students: the mediating role of fear of missing out and the moderating role of left-behind experience.

Mobile social media is a new type of online media that is participatory, open, and communicative, among other characteristics. Due to the increasing popularity of social media, this technology has become an indispensable part of people's social lives. This study aims to examine the relationship between childhood psychological maltreatment and social media addiction among university students as well as the mediating role of fear of missing out and the moderating effect of left-behind experience in this context. A voluntary anonymous online survey of 1694 university students was conducted using the Childhood Psychological Maltreatment Scale, the Fear of Missing Out Scale, and the Social Media Addiction Scale. First, significant positive correlations were observed between childhood psychological maltreatment and both fear of missing out and social media addiction among university students. Fear of missing out partially mediated the relationship between childhood psychological maltreatment and social media addiction. Second, left-behind experience was found to moderate the direct path from childhood psychological maltreatment to social media addiction as well as the first half of the mediating effect of missed anxiety. Childhood psychological maltreatment can predict social media addiction among university students not only directly but also indirectly through the mediating role of missed anxiety. The direct effect of childhood psychological maltreatment on social media addiction is moderated by left-behind experience. The first half of the mediating role of missed anxiety is also moderated by left-behind experience.

Journalistic Construction of Reporting on Covid-19 in Online Media

The Covid-19 pandemic is a global outbreak that has significantly changed people's social lives. The complexity of this issue has caused the coverage of Covid-19 to be dominant with negative news. Negative news can produce various psychological disorders that make readers avoid the news. The news media thus has a significant role in bridging society's adaptation to new patterns of life during the pandemic and adaptation to inconsistent government policies in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, it is important for the news media to be able to bridge government policies with the psychological conditions of people affected by the pandemic. In this research study, constructive journalism can be one solution to overcome this problem. Through constructive journalism, the journalist's job is not only to focus on negative things but also on solutions and positive sides when covering news. Quantitative content analysis was used in this research by applying six elements of constructive journalism to 7 covid-19 articles published by CNN.com in 2020-2022. The research results show that news articles about Covid-19 on CNN.com are not constructive. All elements of constructive journalism found in these articles are below 50%. The element with the highest percentage found was The Rosling (47%) The lowest element found in covid-19 articles on CNN.com was the co-creation element at 9%.

A Technical Note: On Niosomes

A wide range of substances that serve as carriers can be suspended or captured by the Niosomes Delivery System (MDS), which can then be included into a designed product like a gel cream or powder. The formulation's primary goal is to get the desired medication concentration in the blood. Niosomes are a type of porous medication delivery device for small particles. They are tiny, spherical particles that resemble microscopic and have a broad porous surface. In addition, they may increase stability by altering the drug's release pattern while minimizing negative effects. The serious condition impacting social life is acne vulgaris. Acne can be involved; alternation of follicular keratinization seldom causes significant systemic issues, but maturity, especially for women, which leads to drugs assist to reduce the production of sebum, which is mostly responsible for reducing the formation of acne on the skin. The use of niosomes as carriers for medications that target acne vulgaris is currently receiving more attention in research that focuses on illness detection and a brief to target acne vulgaris. Acne vulgaris is a serious condition that is currently affecting people's social lives. Increased sebum production, bacterial involvement, altered follicular keratinization, and altered follicular barrier are all characteristics of acne. The current review is focused on the niosomes as carriers for the drug targeting the acne vulgaris, brief discussion on the present and future aspects of the niosomes to targetet acne vulgaris.

Personal Information Preservation and Balance of Interests

On the one hand, emerging information technologies such as data and information in modern society not only bring a lot of benefits to the development of human society but also lead to the ubiquitous risk of personal message infringement. Therefore, information subjects have the interest expectations and claims to limit the processing and use of their information by others, to protect personal information from illegal collection, processing, dissemination, and intrusion by others. Conversely, the free flow and rational use of individual data have greatly improved the quality of People's Daily social life and have also become an important strategic resource and driving force to promote the enhancement of government governance capabilities and the social development of the future digital economy. Therefore, it can be said that the balance of interests between the preservation and Use of personal messages has become the foundation of the rule of law development of privacy preservation for personal data in contemporary society. Given this, based on previous studies, this paper will further study and discuss the interest balance between the preservation and application of private data in the advancement of contemporary civilization by using the methods of value analysis, legal hermeneutics analysis, and comparative analysis, and propose that within limits permitted by law and with the interests of the information subject as the bottom line, The legal foundation for information users' usage of personal data can be suitably increased to strike a balance between the needs of usage and security of personal messages.
