PENEGAKAN HUKUM TERHADAP ANGGOTA KEPOLISIAN YANG MENYALAHGUNAKAN NARKOTIKA DAN PSIKOTROPIKA

Dewasa ini tindak pidana narkotika dipandang sebagai tindak pidana yang menjadi musuh umat manusia, oleh karena itu Negara-negara di dunia termasuk Indonesia terus berjuang untuk memberantas tindak pidana ini. Permasalahan yang diangkat dalam penulisan Tesis ini adalah Penegakan Hukum Terhadap Anggota Kepolisian Yang Menyalahgunakan Narkotika Dan Psikotropika, bagaimana pengaturan dan Sanksi Pidana terhadap Polri pelaku Tindak Pidana Narkotika, serta bagaimana penerapan sanksi pidana dan kode etik terhadap Polri sebagai pelaku Tindak Pidana Narkotika. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penulisan ini yaitu metode pendekatan peneltian yuridis normatif. Metode yuridis normatif dimana penelitian ini meneliti dengan bahan kepustakaan atau data sekunder yang meliputi buku-buku serta norma-norma hukum yang terdapat pada peraturan perundang-undangan, azas-azas hukum, kaedah hukum dan sistematika hukum dan juga mengkaji ketentuan peraturan perundang-undangan dan bahan hukum lainya. Dari Penelitian ini dapat diambil kesimpulan bahwa 1) Proses penegakan hukum terhadap anggota polisi yang terjerat kasus tindak pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika sudah sesuai dengan peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku, di mana dalam proses bahwa semua orang di mata hukum sama, bahkan dalam penegakan hukum yang tersangkanya adalah anggota polisi penjatuhan pidananya bisa lebih berat. Hal tersebut dikerenakan tersangka adalah aparat penegak hukum yang seharusnya menjalankan perintah jabatan untuk melawan narkotika, akan tetapi tersangka terlibat dalam kasus tindak pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika. 2) Proses penegakan kode etik profesi kepolisian terhadap anggota kepolisian yang terjerat kasus pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika pada kenyataannya belum terlaksana dengan baik dimana polisi tidak langsung menindak tegas anggota yang terjerat kasus pidana penyalahgunaan narkotika, seakan-akan pihak kepolisian masih melindungi anggotanya dan dianggap setelah anggotanya sudah diadili di peradilan umum dan dinyatakan bersalah telah melakukan tindak pidana narkotika.Kata kunci: narkotika, psikotropika, iindak pidana narkotika, kode etik kepolisian
The Categorization of Time and Its Impact on Task Initiation

It could be argued that success in life is a function of a consumer’s ability to get things done. The key step in getting things done is to get started. This research explores the effect of the categorization of time on task initiation. Specifically, we theorize that consumers use a variety of cues to categorize future points in time (events) into either events that are like the present event or those that are unlike the present event. When the deadline of a task is categorized in a like-the-present category, it triggers the default implemental mind-set and hence results in a greater likelihood of task initiation. A series of field and lab studies among farmers in India and undergraduate and MBA students in North America provided support to this theorizing. Our findings have implication for goal-striving strategy and choice architecture.
Degradation of sea urchin feces in a rocky subtidal ecosystem: implications for nutrient cycling and energy flow

During destructive grazing events in the Northwest Atlantic, sea urchins Strongylocen- trotus droebachiensis consume large amounts of kelp biomass, transforming this material into feces. To determine the role of urchin fecal material in nutrient cycling and energy flow in the shallow rocky subtidal zone, we monitored the physical, chemical, and microbial degradation of urchin feces at 6, 9, 12, and 16 m depth over 19 d at a wave-exposed site on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia by quan- tifying changes in fecal biochemical composition, pellet size, and settling velocity. We observed an exponential loss of fecal material and rapid degradation of total and labile organic matter fractions; this suggests that urchin fecal production plays an important role in local nutrient cycling and energy flow via the microbial food web. As the feces were further degraded there was a relative increase in organic carbon, nitrogen, lipid, and available energy content, and a decrease in the C:N ratio, sug- gesting that degraded urchin feces are an important food source for suspension- and deposit-feeding invertebrates. The settling velocity of the feces also decreased over time, likely due to a decrease in fecal pellet density. Older, less dense feces with a relatively high energy content are more likely to be suspended and transported horizontally, providing a mechanism for the export of kelp primary pro- duction to deeper, less productive waters.
Incidence of aflatoxins, fumonisins, trichothecenes and ochratoxins in Nigerian foods and possible intervention strategies

Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by some species of fungi. Aflatoxins, fumonisins, trichothecenes and ochratoxins are the common mycotoxins in Nigeria. Aflatoxin is the most frequently reported in literatures, with trichothecenes being the least, they cause yield loss to farmers as well as constituting major health risk to humans. The occurrence of mycotoxins in food is a serious problem that Nigeria is facing presently, as it continues to pose threat to feed and food safety of animals and humans. There is the need to seek for approaches that would lead to reduction in their toxicity. The practice of good sanitary measures right from the farm to storage, creation of awareness campaign to indicate the toxic effects associated with mycotoxin poisonings in humans and livestock, and proper evaluation of food crops for its presence can go a long way in achieving the target reduction in incidence of mycotoxins in Nigeria.
Surface ligands affect photoinduced modulation of the quantum dots optical performance

Changes of optical properties of the solutions of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) covered with the trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) ligands under the pulsed ultraviolet (UV) laser irradiation are observed. The fluorescence quantum yield (QY) of QDs decreases by more than an order of magnitude when the radiation dose approaches 2 × 10-15 J per particle. This process is accompanied by a blue shift of both fluorescence and the first excitonic absorption peaks. The fluorescence quenching becomes less pronounced when the overall TOPO content in the solution is increased. When ТОРО ligands are replaced with n-hexadecylamine (HDA), QY and spectral properties are not changed at the same irradiation conditions. We assume that the above changes of the optical properties are associated with photooxidation of TOPO ligands by excited QD. Such process is less probable for the HDA ligand due to its different energy structure.
The Effectiveness of Using Linguistic Classroom Activities in Teaching English Language in Developing the Skills of Oral Linguistic Performance and Decision Making Skill among Third Grade Intermediate Students in Makah.

The study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of the use of certain classroom language activities in teaching English language in the development of oral linguistic performance and decision-making among intermediate third-grade students in Makah, and it revealed a statistically significant correlation relationship between the averages of the study sample scores, in the post application for linguistic performance test, and measure of decision-making; and to achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher used two methods: descriptive approach and quasi-experimental design, per experimental group.Ibn al-Qayam intermediate school was chosen randomly, and then the intermediate third grade was chosen deliberately, in the three grades altogether there were 90 students, in each class 30 students; and 3/3 experimental groups, of 30 students each were drawn, and represented the study material in linguistic classroom activities in the English language. Two tools were used: oral linguistic performance test in the English language, and the measure of decision-making; where they were applied on the study sample; after checking their validity and reliability, in the second semester in 2013, and after the end of the training period on linguistic classroom activities in English language classes, they were re-applied to determine the level of the students in each of: oral linguistic performance and the skill of decision-making.The study yielded many results of which the most important were: the presence of statistically significant differences between the average score of the sample study in the two applications, pre and post for linguistic performance estimate card and the measure of decision-making; in each axis separately, and in the linguistic performance overall in the English language; and the skill of decision making; in favor of the post application, and the presence of statistically significant correlation relationship between the average scores of the sample study in the post-application linguistic performance estimate card; and the measure of decision-making. Based on the findings of the study results, there are a number of recommendations including: the need to give linguistic classroom activity programs their educational value and status in teaching English in general education, hold regular sessions for teachers and supervisors; to train them to employ linguistic classroom activities to learn English, and the integration of thinking in teaching English language; in order to provide them with modern educational trends in the field of active learning and development of thinking skills.
Eight Barriers to Changing Traditional Behavior: Part One. Insights on Educational Policy and Practice, Number 18.

Implementing shared decision making in school-based management requires fundamental changes in traditional behavior. Initiation of restructuring systemic authority and decision-making arrangements requires changing deeply held beliefs and developing new roles and relationships. A recent survey of educational practitioners identified eight major barriers to change, which include: (1) fear of taking risks; (2) fear of losing power; (3) resistance to changing roles and responsibilities; (4) lack of trust; (5) lack of definition and clarity; (6) inadequate or inappropriate resources; (7) lack of skills; and (8) lack of hierarchical support. The first five are discussed in this first of a two-issue report; the last three are examined in the second issue.

Investigation of the strong turbulence in the geospace environment

Abstract. Plasma vortices are often detected by spacecraft in the geospace (atmosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere) environment, for instance in the magnetosheath and in the magnetotail region. Large scale vortices may correspond to the injection scale of turbulence, so that understanding their origin is important for understanding the energy transfer processes in the geospace environment. In a recent work, turbulent state of plasma medium (especially, ionosphere) is overviewed. Experimental observation data from THEMIS mission (Keiling et al., 2009) is investigated and numerical simulations are carried out. By analyzing the THEMIS data for that event, we find that several vortices in the magnetotail are detected together with the main one and these vortices constitute a vortex chain. Such vortices can cause the strong turbulent state in the different media. The strong magnetic turbulence is investigated in the ionsophere as an ensemble of such strongly localized (weakly interacting) vortices. Characteristics of power spectral densities are estimated for the observed and analytical stationary dipole structures. These characteristics give good description of the vortex structures.
On the uniformity of the Iitaka fibration

We study pluricanonical systems on smooth projective varieties of positive Kodaira dimension, following the approach of Hacon-McKernan, Takayama and Tsuji succesfully used in the case of varieties of general type. We prove a uniformity result for the Iitaka fibration X 99K Iitaka(X) of smooth projective varieties of positive Kodaira dimension, provided that Iitaka(X) is not uniruled, the variation of the fibration is maximal, and the general fiber has a good minimal model.
TRA-962: COLOURED ASPHALT BUS RAPID TRANSIT LANES IN THE REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF YORK: INTEGRATING LABORATORY PERFORMANCE TESTING INTO SUSTAINABLE PAVEMENT ASSET MANAGEMENT

Located north of Toronto, Ontario, The Regional Municipality of York, the sixth largest municipality in Canada, is a thriving community and home to a well-established service sector. York Region’s population is expected to grow from 1.1 million in 2013 to 1.8 million in 2041. With more people coming to the Region every year, rapid transit projects provide significant benefits. Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) lanes are built or being built along the three most heavily travelled roads in York Region: Yonge Street, Highway 7 and Davis Drive. To improve the level of safety through enhanced visibility and help residents and motorists easily understand this new transit system and follow the right-of-way, York Region uses coloured asphalt pavement design for its dedicated BRT lanes. York Region and Metrolinx retained the Centre for Pavement and Transportation Technology (CPATT), located at the University of Waterloo, to identify innovative and sustainable future preservation and maintenance solutions to ensure durability and high performance throughout the material’s life cycle. This paper highlights background information on how coloured asphalt can be used to achieve various technical and social benefits in a number of transportation applications. This paper also highlights the pavement performance results obtained from conducting material testing at the state-of-the-art pavement laboratory at CPATT. These results were used to develop performance prediction models describing the expected path of deterioration over time. Materials under evaluation included those collected during paving operations.
Biochemical and Microbial Properties of Palm Wine: Effect of Tapping Length and Varietal Differences

The effects of variety and tapping length on several physical, biochemical, nutritional and micro-biological parameters (viscosity, pH, Total Titratable Acidity (TTA), fermenting microorganisms, contaminants) of palm wine extracted from two varieties of palm oil tree (Dura and Tenera) were studied. Each variety presented its own palm wine specific characteristics regarding the chosen parameters. Microbiological and biochemical contents of palm wine were determined during the tapping of Dura and Tenera felled oil palm trees for 4 weeks. Some differences in chemical compositions between fresh palm wine samples of two palm trees varieties were observed. The exudates obtained during the first day of tapping of Dura palm wine were very sugary, less sour and did not contain substantial concentrations of alcohol but the highest loads of microorganisms were observed in Tenera palm wine. Throughout the tapping of palm wine, yeasts and lactic acid bacteria population changed with undoubtedly influence on the palm wine quality.
Comparing the Efficiency of the Family among Successful and Unsuccessful Students

The current research was done to compare the efficiency of the family among successful and unsuccessful students. The statistical population of the research was high school students of Saghez. The method of the current research was causative – comparative. The research sample was 300 high school students (150 students with an average of more than 17 and students with an average of under 12) chosen through cluster sampling. Data were analyzed by using the family assessment questionnaire (FAD) and t test, multivariate regression, phi, Kendall’s tau, and variance analysis. Findings, showed that there is a positive relationship with (0/001) alpha with respect to the efficiency of the family (except for the subscale of problem – solving) among successful and unsuccessful students. The relationship of each of the demographic variables (parents’ education levels, educational major, and age) was a significant relationship on the effectiveness of the family. Family is a good predictor for the success of the students and one can enhance their success rate by strengthening the family effectiveness.
The influence of different level of opponents on internal responses and external loads during small-sided games in soccer

Background: Small-sided games belong to specific training where exercise intensity can be manipulated mainly by modifying external factors. To ensure suitable usage of small-sided games in practice, we have to know the variables, which could influence internal responses and external loads. Objective: The purpose of this work is to determine the influence of opponents of different levels on internal response and external load during a 4-a-side soccer game. Methods: Twenty physical education and soccer coaching students (age 22.53 ± 1.02 years; body mass index 20.83 ± 2.13 kg ⋅ m-2; peak heart rate 195.26 ± 6.05 beats ⋅ min-1) participated in the study. Heart rate, distance covered, global rate of perceived exertion, and technical demands (passes, shots, steals, turnovers) were monitored. The participants were divided into two higher level teams and two lower level teams according to experts' perfomance ranking. Results: The results showed significantly lower average heart rate achieved by higher level teams in the 4-a-side game against lower level opponents compared to against higher level teams. Then lower level teams reached significantly higher average heart rate in the 4-a-side game against higher level teams than in mutual lower level team 4-a-side game. We found out significantly higher distance covered by lower level teams in 4-a-side game against higher level teams than in lower level teams mutual 4-a-side game. Conclusions: The results of this study demonstrated that the performance level of opponents influence internal and external load of the players. The higher level of opponents increases the work load of lower level teams.
Gradual Release Of Responsibility Instructional Model: Its Effects On Students’ Mathematics Performance And Self-Efficacy

The study assessed the mathematics performance and self-efficacy of Grade 9 students in a Gradual Release of Responsibility Instructional Model (GRRIM) at Central Mindanao University Laboratory High School (CMULHS). It aimed to a) ascertain the performance level of students exposed to GRRIM and those exposed to non-GRRIM in terms of pretest, posttest, and retention test; b) determine the self-efficacy level of the students exposed to GRRIM and those exposed to non-GRRIM in terms of mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, verbal-social persuasion, and physiological and emotional arousal; c) compare the performance of students exposed to GRRIM and those exposed to non-GRRIM in terms of posttest and retention test; d) find the significant difference in the self-efficacy level of the students exposed to GRRIM and those exposed to non-GRRIM in terms of mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, verbal-social persuasion, and physiological and emotional arousal. This study used the quasi-experimental research design. The mathematics performance and self-efficacy level were gathered from the participants using validated instruments to answer the research problems. The level of mathematics performance of the students in the pretest, posttest and retention test when exposed to GRRIM and those exposed to non-GRRIM varies from very low to very high level. The self-efficacy level of Grade 9 students towards Mathematics when exposed to GRRIM and non-GRRIM is moderately low. There was a highly significant difference in the posttest scores of those students exposed to GRRIM compared to those exposed to non-GRRIM. On the contrary, there was no significant difference in the mathematics performance of the students when exposed to GRRIM and non-GRRIM in terms of their retention test scores. There was no significant difference in the self-efficacy of students towards Mathematics in terms of mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, verbal-social persuasions and physiological and emotional arousal when exposed to GRRIM and nonGRRIM.
Hyperbolic composition operators on the ball

We give a classification, up to automorphisms, of hyperbolic linear fractional maps of the ball. We then show that this classification is very convenient to study the geometric properties of these maps, as well as the spectrum and the dynamics of the associated composition operators. We conclude by showing how these properties can be tranfered to composition operators associated to hyperbolic self-maps of the ball which are not linearfractional maps.
Role of Bus‐Based Park and Ride in the UK: A Temporal and Evaluative Review

Abstract The number of bus‐based Park and Ride (P&R) schemes in the UK has grown substantially over the past 40 years as a result of its encouragement by the Government as a tool to deal with increasing traffic congestion and traffic‐related pollution. The aim of this article is to analyse the degree to which P&R is effective in the contemporary policy context. The authors identify phases of development of P&R since its emergence as a local solution to transport capacity constraints in historic towns. Policy goals are identified against which a review of literature is used to highlight its effectiveness. It is concluded that P&R may increase the distance travelled by its users due to low load factors on dedicated buses, public transport abstraction and trip generation, although it is highlighted that there are areas in which further research is required to clarify its impacts.
Optimization of Fortified Dough Composition for Spaghetti Production using Strong Wheat Flour

The effects of dough fortification with different amounts of gluten and full fat soya flour on the quality of spaghetti were investigated. Rheological properties of dough, quality and sensory characteristics of spaghetti with different amounts of gluten (8 to 14%) and full fat soya flour (0 to 20%) were evaluated. Fortification caused improvement in some characteristics such as dough stability time and loosening degree and also had a negative effect on water absorption and dry spaghetti firmness. Some characteristics such as cooking loss, stickiness, cooking time and sensory features were improved with the addition of gluten while full fat soya flour showed negative effects. Dough development time was improved with more full fat soya flour contents while gluten showed unexpected effects. The optimal dough (12% gluten and 5% full fat soya flour) had improved stability time (68.5%), loosening degree (23%), cooking loss (30.61%), stickiness (15.79%), cooking time (23%) and sensory features (4.6%) as compared to the unfortified spaghetti. It was concluded that fortified dough is not recommended for short spaghetti products due to the higher dough development time than
Is birth order really important in peer relationship? A grounded theory approach

Abstract This article seeks to develop a theory about the importance of peer relationship among the oldest of the youngest children who have finished preschool education and already started primary school. In the study, observation was employed to collect data from 22 children. The data were analysed through the grounded theory approach, in which data are dealt with inductively. In the data analysis, written-up observations were processed with open coding, axial coding and selective coding. As a result of the data analysis, we argue that only children are inclined to get approval from their peers to extend their social interest and remain unresponsive; the youngest siblings compete for the teacher’s interest and are inclined to attract attention and remain unresponsive due to acceptance difference; the oldest siblings conceive attracting attention as a way of compensating for loss of family interest.
