The purpose of this research is  studying and analyzing contemporary poetry WS Rendra using the function of Leech language and  enriching class VIII KD 3.7 material. and 4.7 on the building blocks of poetry text and deducing the meaning of the poetry text. Throughthe qualitative descriptive analysis method, WS Rendra's poetry was described by analyzing the lines in the verse of his poetry. The function of Leech language can be studied and analyzed in poetry literature, especially contemporary poetry.  Five of the  language functions, there is only one function that cannot be examined from the poem. It is the phatic function because the poem in entitled 'Kecoa Pembagunan' contains social criticism which used the words of satire and ridicule in every  lines of the sentences. The function of the Leech language can be implemented in teaching because the results of the analysis can be integrated with the building blocks of poetry. As my suggestion,  the teachers should expand the study of language functions from several experts to improve and expand literary material, especially poetry.Permasalahan yang dibahas dalam artikel ini tentang adanya pemahaman makna  pada konteks puisi  yang belum bisa dikaji dari linguistik struktural yang sudah ada sejak awal abad 20. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengkaji dan menganalisis puisi kontemporer WS Rendra dengan mengunakan fungsi bahasa Leech serta memperkaya materi kelas VIII KD 3.7 dan 4.7 pada unsur pembangun teks puisi serta menyimpulkan makna teks puisi. Dengan metode analisis deskriptif kualitatif, puisi WS Rendra dideskripsikan maknanya dengan menganalisis baris-baris dalam bait puisinya. Fungsi bahasa Leech dapat dikaji dan dianalisis pada sastra puisi, terutama puisi kontempoer. Dari lima fungsi bahasa hanya satu fungsi yang tidak bisa dikaji dari puisi tersebut, yaitu fungsi fatis. Hal ini dikarenakan puisi yang berjudul ‘Kecoa Pembagunan’ berisi kritik sosial yang menggunakan kata kias sindiran dan ejekan pada baris-baris kalimatnya. Fungsi bahasa Leech dapat diimplementasikan dalam pengajaran karena dari hasil analisis dapat terintegrasi dengan materi unsur-unsur pembangun puisi.  Saran penulis, guru sebaiknyalebih memperluas kajian fungsi bahasa dari beberapa ahli untuk meningkatkan dan memperluas materi sastra terutama puisi.

Müslüman Kardeşler, Siyasal Meşruiyet ve Seçimler: Ürdün Üzerine Bir İnceleme
Authors: BOZKURT Abdulgani
Published: August 2021

Müslüman Kardeşler hareketi, Mısır’da kuruluşundan itibaren toplumla alakalı tüm meselelerle ilgilenen bir teşkilat olmuştur. Hareket, başta komşu ülkeler olmak üzere bütün bölgeye yayılmış ve zaman içerisinde neredeyse bütün Arap ülkelerinde teşkilatlanmıştır. Ülkelerin içsel dinamikleri ile bölgesel ve küresel politikadaki konumlanışları hareketin kurumsal görünümünü ve faaliyetlerini etkilemiş ve hareket içinde belirli bir düzeyde kurumsal ve ideolojik farkın oluşmasının önünü açmıştır. Bölgedeki teşkilatlardan bazıları sistem içi kalırken bazıları da sistem dışı hareket etmiştir. Bu bağlamda Ürdün’deki Müslüman Kardeşler hareketinin sistem içi muhalefet yapan teşkilatlardan biri olduğunu ifade etmek mümkündür. Rejimle kimi zaman çekişme kimi zaman da işbirliği içinde olan hareket, rejimle ilişkisini özellikle ülkede yapılan genel seçimler üzerinden belirlemiştir. Bu noktada hareketin seçimle alakalı aldığı kararlara özel bir önem atfettiği ve seçimleri boykotu rejimin meşruiyetini sarsma aracı olarak kullandığını söylemek yanlış bir tespit olmayacaktır. Hareket muhalefetten yoksun bir meclisin yok hükmünde olacağı ve rejime yönelik eleştirilerin artacağı düşüncesinde olmuştur. Seçimleri bölgede meydana gelen halk hareketleri sürecine kadar rejimin meşruiyetini sarsma olarak değerlendiren Müslüman Kardeşler, ülkede ve bölgede hareket aleyhine gelişen olaylar sonrasında aynı seçimleri kendi meşruiyetini kanıtlamanın bir aracı olarak değerlendirmiştir. Bu çalışma seçimlere katılım ya da seçimleri boykot kararının bir meşruiyet aracı olarak kullanıldığı tezini ileri sürmektedir. Bu kapsamda Ürdün’de siyasal liberalleşme sürecinin başladığı 1989’dan son seçimlerin yapıldığı 2020’ye kadar yapılan tüm seçimler mercek altına alınmış ve hareketin rejimle girdiği mücadele seçimler üzerinden tahlil edilmiştir. Çalışma hazırlanırken 2012 ile 2014 yılları arasında Müslüman Kardeşler ve siyasi kanadı İslami Hareket Cephesi’nin liderleriyle Amman’da yapılan mülakatlardan yararlanılmıştır.

Published: August 2021

Turmeric is extensively used as a preservative in food because it has biological activities
such as antioxidant and antibacterial activities. The quality preservation of turmeric can be
applied by using microencapsulation techniques to improve the bioavailability of
polyphenol substances in turmeric. This study was carried out to determine the physicochemical, oxidative stability, antioxidant potential, pathogenic bacteria, and sensory
evaluation of chicken breast marinated with microencapsulation of turmeric extract stored
at refrigeration (4±1°C) on 0, 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th day of storage. The treatments given
include control (T0), 2.5% added microencapsulated turmeric extract (T1), 5% added
microencapsulated turmeric extract (T2), and 7.5% added microencapsulated turmeric
extract (T3). The results showed a significant difference (p<0.05) in moisture, pH, free
fatty acid, peroxide value, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, thiobarbituric acid
reactive substances, total phenolic, and total plate count (TPC) between treatments and
storage periods. In conclusion, chicken breast marinated with 7.5% microencapsulation of
turmeric extract was considered to have better physico-chemical, antioxidant potential,
microbiological, and sensorial properties.

Mango (Mangifera india L.) is a common fruit that has been found in a wide range of
applications. However, the diversification of mango products has been limited. In this
study, the manufacture of dried mango was attempted to process by adopting the cold
drying technique. The response surface methodology was used to evaluate the
simultaneous effects of cold drying temperature - CT (℃), ultrasonic power - UP (W) and
slice thickness-ST (cm) on total polyphenol (TP) and total ascorbic acid (TA) content by
using Box Behnken experimental design. The established model was considered suitable
to describe the experimental data. The optimized drying parameters were determined at
the temperature of 45.02℃, ultrasonic power of 312.22 W, and slice thickness of 0.96 cm.
These conditions effectively resulted in the highest retention of TP values of 338.994 mg
GAE/100 g and TA of 36.783 mg AA/100 g.

Published: August 2021

This study was aimed at assessing the physicochemical and thermal properties of flour,
acquired from the seeds of three native Sabah durian species. The three durian species
concerned are the Dalit, Sukang and Pulu. Flour deriving from the seeds of the dalit
(DDSF), sukang (DSSF) and pulu (DPSF) durian species, were put through a
physicochemical, pasting and thermal characteristics assessment process. The protein
content in flours, derived from the seeds of durian native to Sabah, demonstrated a high
capacity for the absorption of both water (r = -0.855, p<0.01), and oil (r = 0.921, p<0.01).
DPSF, which holds the most protein content at 6.92%, demonstrated the lowest water
absorption capacity, and greatest oil absorption capacity (p<0.05). Moreover, DPSF was
observed to have the lowest swelling power, solubility and peak viscosity (p<0.05). In
terms of pasting temperature, no outstanding disparities were detected between the three
durian seed flours (p>0.05), but they were considered to have high pasting temperatures.
The lowest setback viscosity (p<0.05) displayed by DPSF, is an indication that the
following gelatinization, will quickly dissolve. Additionally, the enthalpy ΔH of DPSF
revealed as 0.29 J/g (p<0.05) is deemed significantly low. This undertaking delves into the
physicochemical and thermal characteristics of durian seed flour, to its use as composite
flour.
Revisiting the Bach: A model for New Zealand's coastal holiday communities
Authors: Cunningham Luke
Published: August 2021

The original holiday architecture of New Zealand’s coastline has faded from the nation’s memory. The bach was once an icon of national culture; it represented a simple, easy-going lifestyle that many aspired to adopt during holidays and on weekends. As some may remember, the bach was a small building that facilitated the very basics of life in a coastal context. It was small, in-expensive, and built with a strong sense of its surroundings.

Regulation around building code compliance and resource management have slowly seen the coastal landscape change. Second homes are now required to be built professionally, usually on privately developed land. Subdivisions filled with luxurious beach houses now overwhelm the natural environment, as land-owners compete for their slice of sea-side paradise.

This research aims to challenge the status quo by looking to the modest baches of the past for architectural solutions. Research into the bach typology uncovered what made them so treasured as holiday facilitators; whilst a model of shared land ownership addressed issues surrounding the planning of coastal buildings. A master planned community located in the Coromandel Peninsula at Waikawau Bay was developed to join these two facets together. As one of the last undeveloped beaches on the Peninsula, Waikawau presented a unique context for this research.

Data-collection on historic bach buildings was completed through the method of Thematic Analysis. Following this; research through design reintroduced the architectural qualities of the bach to a contemporary context. The results showed that through shared-ownership models, the Coromandel Coast could continue to be developed and even densified through new planning methods and revised architectural design. These results suggest that future development of our coastlines can still occur, but new ideas about the planning and ownership of holiday towns are required; ideas that should be fore fronted by community and place, to sustain and enhance the coastal landscape.
Eco-urban Nexus
Authors: Burns Sarah
Published: August 2021

Urban environments in Aotearoa, New Zealand, face a series of challenges regarding the effects of climate change and urbanisation on ecosystems and human wellbeing. As a result of expansive urbanisation during the mid-19th century, the reshaping of natural landscapes saw the destruction of critical indigenous ecologies, causing ecological degradation and biodiversity loss and severely impacting people’s wellbeing; physically, mentally, and spiritually.

The way we continue to live in and build cities is causing further ecological degradation through overconsumption and pollution, which contributes to the current climate crisis, and leads to storm surge events and sea-level rise, among other direct negative impacts.

Porirua, New Zealand is no exemption to this condition. Its existing urban infrastructure and continued urban development to accommodate an expanding population are causing several environmental and social issues relating to ecosystem degradation. Regular flood events demonstrate the city’s inability to cope with storm water surges, which will only continue as the effects of climate change intensify (Daysh, 2019).

How might urban environments adapt to and mitigate climate change impacts affecting ecosystems and human wellbeing in a way which preserves social and cultural identities?

This thesis argues that a potential solution to address these issues is through increasing human-nature connections in the built environment at a range of scales and across disciplines. This research will test how biophilic design interventions (those related to increasing human/nature connections) could transform a city into a more livable, resilient place of wellbeing for a growing population. Challenging the typical juncture of ocean and land in an urban setting, The research reimagines Porirua as a ‘city on a wetland’ through a speculative biophilic design experiment ,exploring how architecture might respond to dynamic landscape conditions. Theories of biophilia are studied for their related effects on improved human cognitive, psychological and physiological wellbeing, creating anew typology for civic space which marries culture, environment and architecture.

This research aimed to explore the ways in which I, as a music therapy student, could benefit speech and language development with children with complex needs in an early childhood service. Communication is one of the most important parts of our lives. It helps us to connect and build a relationship with others, families, friends and so on. Speech-language development is a core part in music therapy of Communication development for young children which aim to help children to express their inner feelings, emotions; to improve children’s understanding communication and interpret information from other people (Perry, 2003; Knight & Rabon 2017). This is theoretical exploratory research which contains various data from music therapy literature, music therapy audiovisual recordings in public domains, and reflective notes from general experience on placement. This research used a thematic analysis method. The data was interpreted in an open inductive way, discovering ideas and combinations of codes without assumptions, and finding new ideas from the sources. The data analysis method followed the guidelines of Braun & Clarke in 2006 which included six steps in the process: 1) familiarizing with data, 2) generating initial codes, 3) searching for themes, 4) reviewing themes, 5) defining and naming themes and 6) providing a report. This research found there were three main themes in response to the question how do music therapists support speech and language for young children. The most important fundamental process was “Building trust and familiarity” between therapist and child; the secondary theme or process was “Moving up together” which involved musical collaboration and enjoyment. Throughout these processes therapists used “flexible musical skills”. This exploratory study also helped me as a student music therapist to better understand how to facilitate and support speech and language development in my placement in a specialist conductive education facility.

Published: August 2021

Aging is a process that will be experienced by humans according to the cycle of growth and development. Changes both physically and psychologically often cause disorders and health problems that must be resolved. Problems with the physical aspect of the elderly, one of which is a decrease in musculoskeletal function, especially in the joints, often manifest the appearance of joint pain. The presence of joint cartilage damage due to inflammation, as well as an increase in the load on the joints due to excess body weight (obesity) is other factors that often arise. The hip, lumbal, cervical and knee joints are the parts that support the body's weight, so they experience the most problems. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between obesity and the incidence of knee joint pain in the elderly. The design of the study was correlational analytic with a cross sectional approach. The sampling was purposive sampling with 50 respondents as the sample. The instrument used was an observation sheet to measure the respondent's obesity variable and to determine the presence of joint pain using an interview form. The measurement results were then processed and bivariate analysis was carried out using the chi square test. The results of the research analysis Showed the value of p = 0.004 and Î± = 0.05, this meant that p < 0.05, so there was a correlation between the level of obesity and the occurrence of joint pain. This was because not only age but also Â increasing body weight cause joint paint. Â The ability of the knee joint to support the body as a whole was getting heavier due to friction of the joint cartilage. From these studies, it can be concluded that in the elderly, excess body weight can affect to the ability of bones and joints and result in joint pain. The health workers should support the elderly so that the elderly avoid the stress.

Primigravida women mostly experience prolonged progress of labor due to the stiff birth canal. There are several positions of labor that may accelerate cervix dilatation process including squatting. This study aimed to determine the effect of left lateral position and squatting position on the progress of the active phase of the first stage of labor among primigravida women. This was a pre-experimental study with Pre test - post test approach. The population was all primigravida women in labor at Private Practive Midwife Istikomah, Amd.Keb., Sampung Subdistrict, Ponorogo District, takenÂ  with an accidental sampling technique which obtained 9 respondents. The independent variable was labour position, while the dependent variable was duration of the active phase of the first stage of labor. The data collection instrument used here was observation sheet. The results were analyzed using Paired sample T-test (Î±=0,05). The results showed that before the application of left lateral and squatting positions in VT 1, all 9 respondents (100%) had normal labour progress and after the application of left lateral and squatting positions in VT 2, most respondents (77.8%) had labour progress in short category. The analysis obtained a p-value=0.000<Î±=0.05. Thus, there was an effect of left lateral position and squatting position on the progress of the active phase of the first stage of labor among primigravida women. The combination of squatting and left lateral positions during labour seems to accelerate the progress of the active phase of the first stage of labor with minimal side effects.

Impact of Demographic Variables on Economic Growth in South Asian Countries: A Panel Data Analysis
Authors: Ahmad Nisar , Nayyab Sara
Published: August 2021

This study find the impact of demographic variables on economic growth in selected South Asian countries; Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Sri-Lanka using panel data from 1976 to 2017. Fertility rate and life expectancy are used as demographic variables and GDP is used to indicate the economic growth. Panel unit root tests including Levin-Lin & Chu, Im-Pesaran & Shin, ADF-Fisher χ2, PP-Fisher χ2 are applied to check the stationary of variables. Pedroni and Kao Panel Co-integration are employed to test the co-integration among variables. Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) estimators are obtained for long run relationship. Results show that total fertility rate and life expectancy have significant impact on economic growth in these four South Asian countries. For example, one unit increase in total fertility rate depresses the economic growth by 0.106 units. However, economic growth is accelerated by 0.196 units due to one year increase in life expectancy.

Seventy [70]appendiceal specimens and 80 ice-cream samples were analysed to detect Yersinia enterocolitica using three different media. Both Y. enterocolitica and Citrobacter freundii were recovered in appendiceal specimens [17.1% and 8.6%]and ice-cream [26.25% and 18.75%]respectively. Thioglycollate medium was more selective and productive in isolating Yersinia. Y. enterocolitica was the major causative agent of acute appendicitis [11/25, 44%]. It was sensitive to chloramphenicol, gentamicin, tetracycline and trimethoprim- sulfamethoxazole

Published: August 2021

Adequate child-spacing is considered a positive factor in the health of mothers and their children. A house-to-house survey of 332 women in Al-Oyaynah village, Saudi Arabia was carried out in April and May of 1995 to determine the existing practice of child-spacing and factors influencing it. The variables examined included age of the mother, age at marriage, education, income, parity, type of infant-feeding and birth order. The age of the mother, age at marriage and education were significantly associated with the length of the birth interval. The current age of mother and her parity were found to be the only significant predictor variables of birth interval

Published: August 2021

Anthropometric measures of overall and central obesity as predictors of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus [NIDDM]risk were studied. Data for 4728 Omanis were taken from the 1991 National Diabetes Survey. Diabetes mellitus was assessed using a 2-hour post glucose load. After adjusting for age, sex, family history of diabetes, physical activity and blood pressure, body mass index [BMI]was positively associated with increased risk of diabetes mellitus. Controlling for BMI and other potential confounders, waist-to-hip ratio and waist circumference were positively associated with increased risk of diabetes mellitus. Waist measurement [alone or with hip circumference]is a simple and independent tool for assessing the risk of NIDDM

Objective: Perform the histomorphometric study of the following regions: areas of perivillous fibrin deposition; thickness of the endothelial layer of the vessels; analysis of Tenney-Parker changes. Analyze the Placental Index (IP). Results: It was seen that the weight of the placentas increased according to the weight of the newborn, however, when the variable PI was analyzed as being decisive for the development of a risk-free pregnancy, it was found that this parameter was not significant between the groups studied. (p <0.05). It was found that there is a significant difference in relation to the areas of fibrin deposition (P <0.05) between the groups and that it possibly converges with the data found in the literature in which it could be established that in the GrH there is a different relationship in this pattern. The findings of the thickness of the middle layer were significant in the GrH when compared to the GrN (p <0.05), when this parameter is compared between the Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy (HDP) groups, microscopically the PE cases showed prominent changes. I n the present study, Tenney-Parker changes were prominent and discreet in 75% of the GrH placentas versus 20% in the GrN. However, there are contradictions in the literature regarding the consideration of this finding seen only in Hematoxylin-Eosin staining. Conclusion: Given the above, the presence of syncytial knots, the difference between vessel thickness and areas of fibrin deposition are possibly involved in the pathogenesis of Hypertensive Syndromes, regardless of age and established classifications. In order to evaluate syncytial knots, further studies are needed in this population.
