Yuan Shop is one of the business places to order screen printing services in Kebonagung Village, Kraksaan District, which provides screen printing services according to customer requests. Orders at Yuan Shop are made offline and via the WhatsApp application. There are various problems with this system, namely that it still requires customers to come to the place to order screen printing services and make payments, so that they are constrained by distance and time to go to where to order screen printing. Orders made through the WhatsApp application also have drawbacks, namely when too many chat orders come in so it will be difficult to record the number of orders. The owner records orders and recapitulates financial reports manually using a notebook, so that it can have an impact on the performance of business owners in recording orders and recapitulating financial statements every month. Therefore we need an ordering information system and financial reports that can overcome existing problems. The development method used in this study is the Agile Development Method, for system design using Flowcharts, DFD, and ERD. The results of the research conducted are to produce an ordering information system and financial reports for clothing screen printing services at the Yuan Shop which can be used to simplify the process of ordering clothing screen printing services and to make it easier for screen printing business owners to find out the results of financial reports every month.
Fenians Over the Niagara: Irish Nationalism and Rebellion in Nineteenth Century Buffalo, NY
Authors: Barr Erin
Published: July 2023

After the American Civil War, the United States faced yet another political crisis. Rather than being caused by slavery, this crisis was brought about by an international radical political group: the Fenians. Famous in the annals of Irish history, the Fenians were the embodiment of pro-independence radical Irish politics during the mid-to-late nineteenth century. Moreover, the Fenians found popularity among America’s newly arrived Irish inhabitants. In 1866, years of fund raising, meeting, and planning culminated when a group of roughly two-thousand Irish-Americans crossed the Niagara River from Buffalo, NY to Fort Erie, Canada with the goal of seizing the Welland Battery, and Fort Erie itself. This invasion, which was meant to help bring about Irish independence by capturing British-controlled Canada, failed. While some escaped, those captured in Canada were tried for their crimes and sentenced to either imprisonment to execution. American Fenians who escaped into American territory continued their efforts into the 1880s.

            These little-known events represent the degree to which Irish political culture crossed the Atlantic and thrived among the American-Irish. This study examines radical Irish political activity in Buffalo, NY in the decades before the Fenian Raids, and analyses their aftermath. While studies of American immigrant political culture are most often concerned with organized labor and political graft, Irish immigrants saw themselves as a part of a larger international “Irish Nation,” and saw little conflict between their dual identities, and used their geographic proximity to a major British territory to their advantage.

Flooding is one of the natural disasters that often occur in various regions in Indonesia. Flood events have a negative impact on the community because it can cause material losses and fatalities. Flood disasters generally occur in the rainy season with high rainfall. Technology can be used to reduce the impact caused by the flood disaster. In this study, a system was created that can estimate the probability of flooding by measuring rainfall levels, and changes in water height from ground level by using rain gauge sensors and ultrasonic sensors and sending sensor reading data and flooding positions to the database using the GSM SIM800L Module. Based on this research, the system can estimate the likelihood of flooding and give a warning with a 100% success rate.

Published: July 2023

In general, monitoring of animal growth and health is done directly by farmers (invasive measurement methods) which can cause cows to be injured or experience stress. To avoid this, several studies have been conducted on non-invasive methods using image processing technology. In this study, we systematically reviewed several works of literature to identify and synthesize published articles on image processing technology and image processing applications related to weight estimation and individual cattle identification. Analysis of image processing technologies used for weight estimation and individual cattle identification is the main objective of this article. Articles were searched through several databases and studies that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed and used in the review. The studies were divided into three main themes: image processing technologies, applications using image processing, and image processing research on cattle growth and health. It can be concluded that deep learning approaches are increasingly being studied, tested and considered as a viable and promising approach to monitor cattle weight and health in several aspects
Decolonial Metatextualities: Strategies of Resistance in Three Contemporary Novels of Oceania
Authors: Charon Mylène , LEHARTEL Temiti
Published: July 2023

Decolonial thinkers have stressed that to decolonise is not to reject the colonial legacy, but to deal with it, and to centre First Nations’ perspectives in its critique and in decolonising knowledge. As a critical relationship of a text – with itself, other texts, literature, and culture – metatextuality is a literary device operationalized in contemporary novels to resist persisting colonial powers. In this paper, we present three works of fiction by Indigenous writers of Oceania, and analyse their political use of metatextuality: L’île des rêves écrasés (Island of Shattered Dreams), by Tahitian author Chantal Spitz (1991); The Yield, by Aboriginal Wiradjuri novelist Tara June Winch (2019); and After Story, by Aboriginal Eualeyai/Kamillaroi writer Larissa Behrendt (2021). Centred on First Nations’ characters from Tahiti and Australia, these novels expose how they are racialised, marginalised, and constructed as inferior in postcolonising societies; and how, at the same time, these Indigenous characters are legitimate knowers and storytellers, reflecting on Western literature (often ironically), on their own marginality, and on their ancestral knowledges and languages. Borrowing from decolonial theorists Tlostanova and Mignolo’s (2012) ‘border thinking’, we propose that these novels deploy a ‘writing from the border’.
U.S. policy in Iraq in the 1990s – early 2000s. The last decade of "undemocratic" Iraq
Authors: Belousova Kseniya Andreevna
Published: July 2023

The foreign policy of the United States cannot but be relevant, because, having decided for the whole world that only they can bring order and sow democratic values throughout the globe, their policy and its consequences lead, on the contrary, to discord and chaos. The Middle East region, even without US intervention, is a complex knot of contradictions: the unresolved Arab-Israeli conflict, the importance of the region as an oil-bearing one, terrorism, Islamic fundamentalism sometimes acquiring extreme forms, etc. Iraq, which in essence has never been in the orbit of American influence, has therefore become a threat to US national interests. Using a combination of chronological and case-based approaches, we tried to reveal all the main elements of US policy in Iraq in the last decade of the Ba'ath Party's rule: the issue of sanctions, the problem of the south and north of the country, the activities of the UN commission, etc. "Democratizing" Iraq from 1993 to 2003 the United States pursued an unprincipled and anti-human policy, as a result of which hundreds of thousands of people died, industry was completely disorganized, and in the recent past, under the dictatorship of S. Hussein, a prosperous state rolled back into the pre-industrial era. Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003 disintegrated the country, turning it into a quasi-state.
Relative Motion in the Velocity Frame for Atmospheric Entry Trajectories
Authors: Albert Samuel W. , Schaub Hanspeter
Published: July 2023

Relative motion models provide a method of directly describing the position and velocity of a deputy spacecraft with respect to a chief spacecraft. Common approaches such as the Clohessy–Wiltshire equations describe relative motion in a rotating orbit frame aligned with the radial position vector of the chief, and intuitive solutions exist in this frame for circular or near-circular chief orbits. However, as eccentricity of the chief orbit increases, the along-track and velocity directions become less aligned and the orbit frame becomes less intuitive. This work revisits several key relative motion descriptions in the orbit frame and reformulates them to describe motion in the velocity frame, which provides an intuitive description of motion with respect to the flight path. Highly elliptic and hyperbolic chief motions are considered, which are common for atmospheric entry trajectory scenarios. These models are combined with the extended Allen–Eggers equations into a procedure for analytically estimating the offset in landing location for formation flying on an atmospheric entry trajectory. Three representative examples are given and compared with simulation, and range offset predictions are within 6% of total chief range in all cases.
Hybrid Lumped-Element and Finite Element Model for Novel Synthetic Jet Actuator Shapes
Authors: Sheng Michael T. , Keller Scott M. , Mickalauskas Anthony , Menicovich David , Amitay Michael , Lynch Christopher S.
Published: July 2023

A modeling approach was developed that combines lumped-element and finite element methods for analysis of synthetic jet actuator (SJA) geometries that deviate significantly from an ideal Helmholtz resonator. The diaphragm was modeled using the finite element method (FEM) coupled to lumped-element equations that govern the fluid flow. The loss coefficient [Formula: see text] was estimated based on the geometry of the cavity and orifice. A pressure acoustic FEM model of the cavity and orifice was used to determine a characteristic resonance frequency to use in place of the Helmholtz resonance frequency that appeared in the lumped element equations. The results were validated using experimental data for SJAs with geometries that deviate significantly from the Helmholtz resonator idealization. The combination of replacing the Helmholtz frequency with a more accurate characteristic frequency and using a computed value for the loss coefficient was shown to provide more accurate performance predictions for low-profile SJA designs.

Published: July 2023

Purpose: to evaluate the results of endonasal interventions in patients with meningioma of the TS, to determine the criteria for selecting patients for endonasal approach, to establish indications and contraindications, to analyze the radicalism of operations, their technical features and complications associated with this approach.
Materials and methods. the indications and contraindications for endonasal surgery of meningioma of the TS, which were performed in Romodanov Neurosurgery Institute from 2014 to 2022. The study includes 32 patients with a diagnosis confirmed by instrumental examinations: meningioma of the TS, who underwent endonasal tumour removal. The results of interventions were evaluated based on the postoperative ophthalmological (with optical coherence tomography - OCT), endocrinological (laboratory), instrumental (CT and MRI) and rhinoscopic follow-up of patients.
Results. Performance of endonasal surgery for TS meningioma, method of bony defect plastic surgery, which significantly reduces the percentage of CSF leak was described in our article. Thus, it was confirmed that our percentage of CSF leak (9.4%) was significantly lower compared to other authors.
We also assessed radicality of endonasal removal of TS meningioma of the TS. Simpson I was achieved in 87.5%.
In 26 patients (81.2%) in the early postoperative period improvement of visual acuity and expansion of visual fields has been noted, which was confirmed by an ophthalmologist's examination and optical coherence tomography. In 4 patients (12.5%) no dynamic of visual disturbances was noted, in 2 patients (6.25%) a slight decrease of visual acuity was noted. Intra- and postoperative complications in patients with TS meningiomas were analyzed. There were no mortality, hemorrhagic complications and postoperative meningitis. Five (15.6%) patients had postoperative hypopituitarism. Two (6.25%) patients had a syndrome of inadequate secretion of antidiuretic hormone, manifested by hyponatremia. Among postoperative complications there were 3 cases of CSF leak (9.38%). One case of CSF leak required reoperation (3.13%). We also observed an overpacking with a fat graft (1 case), which led to decreased visual acuity in the early postoperative period and required reoperation (3.13%). In 6 (18.7%) cases in the postoperative period, anosmia occurred due to the extended approach and traumatization of the nasal mucous membrane.
Conclusions. The main complications of endonasal interventions are: intraoperative damage of neurovascular structures, CSF leak, meningitis, necrosis of the nasoseptal flap, hemorrhages in the tumour bed, overpacking with a fat graft which leads to decreased vision in the early postoperative period and anosmia. The rate of major complications described in this article is low and quite acceptable. Critical issues such as meningitis and hemorrhagic complications are completely absent in this study.

Experimental and Theoretical Studies of Hyperthermal N + O2 Collisions
Authors: Caracciolo Adriana , San Vincente Veliz Juan Carlos , Lu Dandan , Guo Hua , Meuwly Markus , MINTON TIMOTHY
Published: July 2023

The dynamics of hyperthermal N(4S) + O2 collisions were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Crossed molecular beams experiments were performed at an average center-of-mass (c.m.) collision energy of Ecoll = 77.5 kcal mol-1, with velocity- and angle-resolved product detection by a rotatable mass spectrometer detector. Non-reactive (N + O2) and reactive (NO + O) product channels were identified. In the c.m. reference frame, the non-reactively scattered N atoms and reactively-scattered NO molecules were both directed into the forward direction with respect to the initial direction of the reagent N atoms. On average, more than 90% of the available energy (Eavl = 77.5 kcal mol-1) was retained in translation of the non-reactive products (N + O2), whereas a much smaller fraction of the available energy for the reactive pathway (Eavl = 109.5 kcal mol-1) went into translation of the NO + O products, and the distribution of translational energies for this channel was broad, indicating extensive internal excitation in the nascent NO molecules. The experimentally derived c.m. translational energy and angular distributions of the reactive products suggested at least two dynamical pathways to the formation of NO + O. Quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations were performed with a collision energy of Ecoll = 77 kcal mol-1 using two sets of potential energy surfaces, denoted as PES-I and PES-II, and these theoretical results were compared to each other and to the experimental results. PES-I is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) representation of multi-reference configurational interaction (MRCI) energies, while PES-II is a many-body permutation invariant polynomial (MB-PIP) fit of complete active space second order perturbation (CASPT2) points. The theoretical investigations were both consistent with the experimental suggestion of two dynamical pathways to produce NO + O, where reactive collisions may proceed on the doublet (12A) and quartet (14A) surfaces. When analyzed with this theoretical insight, the experimental c.m. translational energy and angular distributions were in reasonably good agreement with those predicted by the QCT calculations, although minor differences were observed which are discussed. Theoretical translational energy and angular distributions for the non-reactive N + O2 products matched the experimental translational energy and angular distributions almost quantitatively. Finally, relative yields for the non-reactive and reactive scattering channels were determined from the experiment and from both theoretical methods, and all results are in reasonable agreement.

Chromium is a potentially toxic metal due to several acute and chronic effects on human. Chromium can accumulate in the soil and water as the result of weathering processes, industrial emissions, tanneries, and inorganic fertilizers. This study aimed to evaluate the potential threat from Cr exposure in adults and children of the community around Maros karst, Indonesia. The level of Cr was investigated on twenty soils and sixteen well water using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). The integrated health risk assessment method from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and Monte Carlo simulation approach with 10,000 iterations were applied to assess non-cancer and cancer risk through combined pathways, ingestion and skin contact. The non-cancer risk with 95% confidence demonstrated that Cr exposure in adults and children was below the permissible limit (THI<1). The final prediction using human health risk assessment showed that the non-cancer risk for both receptors was considered acceptable. However, the total cancer risk (TCR) values exceeded the acceptable risk value of USEPA in children (2.33 x 10-4 ) and adults (2.18 x 10-4 ), indicating children have a greater risk for developing cancer than adults. Ingestion rate (IR) (26.0%) and Cr concentration in soil (26.4%) were the most important variables in determining cancer risk for adults and children, respectively. The findings could be valuable for managing well water consumption and soil remediation in residential areas.
Synthesis, Characterization, and Antibacterial Activity of Some Mesalazine Derivatives
Authors: Jasim Ekhlas Qanber
Published: July 2023

Mesalazine, often referred to as mesalamine or 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), and its derivatives are some of the first medications to be approved for treating digestive tract inflammations, including ulcerative colitis and mild to moderate Crohn’s disease. Sulfasalazine, discovered in 1938 for therapeutic use, was the first mesalazine derivative. High yields of four different mesalazine derivatives were synthesized, including two Schiff bases and two azo compounds. The present study involved the synthesis of Schiff bases through the reaction of mesalazine with pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde or indole-2-carbaldehyde, resulting in the formation of 5-(((1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene)amino)-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (1) or 5-(((1H-indol-2-yl)methylene)amino)-2hydroxybenzoic acid (2), respectively. The synthesis of azo compounds involved the coupling of mesalazine with sulfamethoxazole or pyridoxine, resulting in the formation of 5-amino-2-hydroxy-3-((4-(N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)sulfamoyl)phenyl)diazenyl)benzoic acid (3) or 2-hydroxy-5-((5-hydroxy-3,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)diazenyl)benzoic acid (4), respectively. The identification of the synthesized compounds was carried out using IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Antibacterial assessment of the synthetic compounds was performed in vitro against gram-negative bacteria (such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus). The antibacterial activity studies demonstrated that against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, the Schiff base compounds are more active than azo compounds. Compound 1 showed the highest activity, resulting in a 23 mm inhibition zone against E. coli at 1000 ug/ml. In contrast, the antibacterial activity of compound 2 was observed to be 25 mm against S. aureus at the same highest concentration.
The Effect of Acupuncture Point Therapy on Insomnia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Wang Jingyao , Dong Wanting
Published: July 2023

Born in a society where traditional as well as modern medication is used equally on daily basis, it is puzzling yet intriguing to find how, albeit the lack of scientific evidence, the traditional ways are widely adopted in every Chinese family. Various studies are conducted in search for the mechanisms as well as the relative effectiveness of the traditional acupoint therapy as opposed to the Western medicines, yet individually viewing, it is hard to reach a conclusion. Therefore, a meta-analysis is done by collecting and analyzing results from research from multiple reliable databases, trying to determine the strength of acupoint therapy in treating insomnia, a common yet frustrating disease. In this meta-analysis, the methods and results of 13 studies are included, all of which focus on treating primary or secondary (specific causes are analyzed in subgroups) insomnia in humans using randomized control trials. After being selected from four main medical databases, including PubMed, Embase, Psycinfo, and Wanfang, the data were sorted and processed using the Reviewing Manager. Papers that lack credibility or have a low level of relevance were excluded, and the remaining studies showed that all experimental groups using real acupoints yielded a statistically significant improvement in sleep quality in the patients than those in the control group, and finally, a conclusion is drawn that the acupuncture therapy is as, if not more, effective as modern western medicine on treating insomnia.

The paper relates to the relevance of the implementation of the integrated approach to building the higher education system. The research aimed to investigate the features of the combination of natural sciences and the humanities and consequences on the quality of higher education. One-hundred and twenty-four (124) students in their first and second years of study (bachelor’s degree) from a Faculty of Natural Sciences and Geography, 29 teachers, and 15 independent experts took part in the experiment. The study was designed as a semi-experimental study that included both quantitative and qualitative methods. This included the method of self-reflective notes and expert evaluations, online questionnaires (Google Forms, Likert scale), and statistical data processing. Descriptive, content, and qualitative analysis was used for data interpretation. In general, the parties involved evaluated the concept, course, and results of the experiment positively. According to the evaluation results, the students (the focus group) evaluated the prospects of the integrated model positively. The teachers were the most optimistic in their predictions about the potential of integrated teaching to influence the quality of education, and the experts gave a medium score. The main difficulties were related to the establishment of appropriate conditions for cooperation in the context of distance learning and the need to work more intensively than under the traditional autonomous teaching of disciplines. Therefore, the combination of natural sciences and the humanities positively affects the quality of modern higher education during high-quality implementation of the innovative educational model. The study contributes to the present discussions about approaches of reforming and developing the HEI educational paradigm.
Values of Clinical Observational Learning in Work-Integrated Learning in Health Sciences Education: Students' Views and Experiences
Authors: Carpenter Darren , Hu Zijing
Published: July 2023

Students' competency is a critical concern in health sciences education. Therefore, work-integrated learning has become an integral part of health sciences programmes at higher education institutions. This study explored students' views and experiences of clinical observational learning to promote work-integrated learning in the acupuncture programme at a South African university. The authors used the Technological, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge (TPACK) model as a theoretical lens to guide this study, involving five participants who were purposively selected. A qualitative descriptive single case study design was employed within an interpretivist paradigm. Five participants were recruited for this study. The authors employed semi-structured interviews as the data collection instrument. The data were analysed using the six-step thematic analysis. The findings revealed that students agreed that clinical observational learning significantly improved clinical competency. They reported that clinical observational learning assisted them in memorising content knowledge and obtaining practical experience. Furthermore, participants highlighted that a lack of space, insufficient time, and incompetency of observed student practitioners negatively affected their learning experience. This study concluded that higher education institutions should employ clinical observational learning in the curriculum to assist in transitioning students from theoretical knowledge to clinical practice. It is recommended that further research must be conducted at national and international higher education institutions.

Published: July 2023

The article highlights the specifics of emotional and volitional resilience development of future officers of the defense and security sector of Ukraine during professional training at the higher military educational institutions (HMEI). The emotional and volitional resilience of future officers of the defense and security sector of Ukraine is considered as a holistic characteristic of the mental component of their purposeful managerial activity in everyday and, especially, extreme and combat conditions, readiness to resist the stressogenic influence of stress factors of adverse situations of military-professional activity. The emotional and volitional resilience includes a systematic practical ability to withstand extreme excitement and emotional stress under the influence of military service stressors, in particular, stress factors of the combat situation. Stimulation of emotional and volitional resilience of future officers should include exercises and techniques modified in accordance with the purpose and objectives of the training program at the HMEI for the formation and development of cadets' resilience. The specified professional training should be filled with necessary, practically oriented psychological knowledge and enrich the entire educational process with not only methods to form emotional and volitional resilience, but also create conditions for the internal growth of the cadets' personality. Thus, training program for the formation and development of emotional and volitional stability of cadets should be an important addition to the system of psychological training that functions at the HMEI of the security and defense sector Ukraine.

Authors: Jiménez-López Eduardo , López-Rivera Luis Antonio
Published: July 2023

The objective of this work is the use of artificial neural networks and cellular automata to support urban planning decisions in Mexico. We propose an automated model that predicts vertical urban growth, using socio-economic and geographic factors. A multidisciplinary model is presented that manages artificial neural networks, cellular automata, spatial analysis methods, image processing that allow different scenarios of urban growth to be projected and simulated. All of this is built into QGIS through the Python programming language. The model is tested in Mexican cities such as Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey during the years 2015-2020. Reliability ranges from 72% to 76% were obtained, validated by: i) the average number of projected skyscrapers, ii) Position using the Kappa index, and iii) Value in the image using the Jaccard index. With this we propose a technique that allows better informed decisions for urban planning and anticipate new infrastructure needs, projections and regulations.
Psychological First Aid In The COVID-19 Context: Theoretical Review
Authors: Arteaga Fuentes Mari Naivi
Published: July 2023

The objective of this study was to carry out a theoretical review of the protocols, guides and manuals of Psychological First Aid developed in the COVID-19 context. It was a theoretical study, carried out by searching for articles in the following databases: Web of science, Dialnet, Google Scholar, Science Direct, E-spacio and Redalyc. The articles located that met the inclusion criteria were classified into sections according to their characteristics. It was possible to conclude that the different classifications allow the population to apply PAPs in situations that require it, as in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the need to increase the development and unify the action protocols is evident in order to uniformly attend the possible repercussions of the crises; as well as to ensure the evaluation of the results of these applications in a more effective manner.
EFEKTIVITAS PENGGUNAAN e-filling DAN TINGKAT KEPATUHAN WAJIB PAJAK DALAM MELAPORKAN SPT PADA KANTOR PELAYANAN, PENYULUHAN DAN KONSULTASI PERPAJAKAN (KP2KP) SELONG TAHUN 2011-2020

Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk menganalisis efektifitas penggunaan e-filling dan tingkat kepatuhan wajib pajak dalam melaporkan SPT sebelum dan sesudah Penggunaan e-filling pada Kantor Pelayanan, Penyuluhan dan Konsultasi Perpajakan (KP2KP) Selong. Data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder berupa data jumlah wajib pajak yang terdaftar, jumlah wajib pajak yang melaporkan dan tidak melaporkan SPT tahun 2011-2020.

Analisis data menunjukkan bahwa persentase pelaporan SPT baik sebelum maupun sesudah menggunakan e-filing tidak mengalami perubahan secara signifilan dan masih tergolong sangat rendah. Rata-rata pelaporan SPT selama tahun 2011-2017,  sebelum menggunakan e-filling, sebesar 37 % ( kategori sangat rendah), dan setelah menggunakan e-filling, tahun 2018-2020, sebesar 38,20 %  ( kategori sangat rendah ).  Berdasarkan hasil ananlsisi data dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan e-filling belum efektif. Tingkat kepatuhan wajib pajak, ditinjau dari persentase wajib pajak yang melaporkan SPT, meskipun terdapat peningkatan pelaporan SPT sebesar 1,20 % setelah penggunaan e-filing, namun tingkat kepatuhan wajib pajak masih tergolong sangat rendah. Rendahnya tingkat pelaporan SPT ini, mekipun jumlah wajib pajak terdaftar meningkat, disebabkan minimnya kesadaran dan kurangnya pemahaman Wajib Pajak mengenai sistem perpajakan modern. Perlu kesinambungan penyuluhan atau sosialisasi mengenai sistem perpajakan modern dan penggunaan e-filing kepada wajib pajak.

 

Kata Kunci : e-filling, Tingkat Kepatuhan wajib pajak, pelaporan SPT.

 The aim of the study was to analize of the effectiveness of using e-filling  and the level of tax payer’s compliance in reporting SPT before and after using e-filling at The Selong Tax Services, Extention and Consultattion office (KP2KP Selong) during 2011-2020. The data is secondary data such as the number of registered tax payers, the number of tax payer  reporting and not reporting SPT during 2011-2020.

Based on data anlayses it is known that both  before and after using e-filling in reporting SPT has not cange significantly, and is still classified as very law. The average SPT reporting during 2011-2017, before using e-filling, was 37% (very law catagory), and after using e-filling, 2018-2020, is 38,20% (still very law catagory). So using e-filiing is not efektive yet. The Compliance of tax payer, in term of percentage of reporting SPT, even thoug there was increase in SPT reporting of 1.20%,  after using e-filling, is very law catagory. The law level compliance of the taxpayer in reporting of SPT due to lack of awareness and lack understanding of modern tax system.There needs to be continuity of conselling or dissamination of the modern tax system and use of e-filling to taxpayer.

Land cover will change due to population pressure, resource use, and human interest in space. Measuring the land area is important to determine how much-converted land is positive and negative. The vegetation on land was determined by how densely the plants were spread out. This study is conducted in Palabuhanratu, Sukabumi Regency. Aims to test and compare how accurate EVI and SAVI are at seeing vegetation density. The images used are from Landsat 8 in 2018 and 2022. Calibration is performed using high-resolution images, followed by field surveys with 98 points from polygon sampling. The average accuracy of the results from EVI is 49%, while the average accuracy of the results from SAVI is 45%. So, we can say that the EVI or SAVI based-input gives a similar result on observing the vegetation density in Palabuhanratu.
Impacts on Bats by a Supertyphoon vs. Ordinary Typhoons along a Habitat Urbanization Gradient

Two major human-caused threats to ecosystems are habitat modification and the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. To study the combined effect of these threats, the authors used acoustic monitoring of bats along a habitat modification gradient on the island of Okinawa, Japan. During the observation period, the island experienced numerous typhoons and one supertyphoon. Native bat species remained active even at high wind speeds (up to 30 m/s in some cases). Milder typhoons had no observable effect on bat populations, with activity levels fully recovering within a few hours or days. The super typhoon also did not seem to affect bats in fully or partially forested habitats but caused their local disappearance at the urban site, which they have not re-colonized three years after the event. Notably, bats that disappeared at the urban site were species roosting in well-protected places such as caves and concrete structures. In all cases, the biomass of small flying insects and the acoustic activity of insects recovered within days after extreme weather events. Thus, the striking difference between habitats in supertyphoon effects on bats cannot be explained by the super typhoon directly killing bats, destroying their roosting sites, or decreasing the abundance of their prey. The results underscore the importance of preserving natural habitats in areas particularly affected by changing climate and show that the survival of species and ecosystems during the numerous episodes of climate change in the Earth’s history does not necessarily mean their ability to survive the accelerating climate change of our time.
