TINJAUAN YURIDIS AKIBAT PERUBAHAN PERUNTUKKAN TANAH PERTANIAN KE NON PERTANIAN SEBAGAI DASAR PENETAPAN PBB DAN BPHTB
Authors: GULTOM ROSERIA NATALIA
Published: February 2022

The increase in land transfer and use, such as farm land becomes non farm (housing and industry), rural land becomes urban land which makes its price higher. The increase in the land price (from farm land to urban land) is caused by two factors: there are the land transfer from farm land to non-farm land and business roperty. The increase in land price influences NJOP (taxable item market value) as the basis for the assessment of PBB (Tax on Land and Building).

            The objective of the research was to find out and to analyze the legal consequence of the transfer of the use of land from farm land to non-farm land, to find out and to analyze the impact of the use of land on NJOP, and to find out the basis for imposing PBB.

            The results of the research shows thats it is very common that he person who transfers the land from farm land to non- farm land does not follow the procedure so that it is illegal.

Therefore, the regulation is needed to protect irrigated rice fields and the impact of the change in the land use by the increase of the price of the farm land to the non-farm land which eventually increase NJOP and influences the PBB. The imposition of PBB and BPHTB is based on SISMIOP in which its operation is referred to the data and the assessment by optimizing the storing, processing, presenting, distributing, and analyzing information about PBB.

The enactment of Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection (which has been amended to Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Amendments to Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection), as a special legal instrument to protect children from all crimes , including sexual crimes. This legal instrument does not necessarily make children escape the target of sexual predators, because the number of cases of sexual crimes against children has not shown any decline. Children are weak creatures. The weakness of children is not only in terms of physical, the formation of the brain in children is also not fully formed. The child's physical weakness makes the child unable to provide resistance when experiencing harsh treatment that hurts his body. The imperfect formation of the brain in children makes children unable to distinguish right from wrong, and tends to imitate people's actions. This child's weakness is used by sexual predators to vent their biological desires.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the application of Scientific Crime Investigation in proving criminal cases and the urgency of implementing scientific crime investigation in proving criminal cases

This research was conducted using empirical research methods. The data obtained, both primary and secondary data, are categorized according to the type of data. Then the data was analyzed using qualitative methods

The results of this study indicate that: 1). The application of Scientific Crime Investigation (SCI) in proving a crime is a quality assurance and quality control, where in proving a crime, the application plays an important role in minimizing errors that often occur when processing evidence, and without any certain facilities and facilities, it is impossible for law enforcement to take place smoothly. Such facilities or facilities include, among others, educated and skilled human workers, good organization, adequate equipment, sufficient finances and so on. 2) Science in proving criminal cases has a broad understanding that covers almost all disciplines used to conduct investigations. The application of science through the scientific crime investigation (SCI) method is a breakthrough in the evidentiary process in proving a crime. Proof of criminal cases by SCI cannot be separated from the assistance of the Forensic Laboratory, which is the place for checking evidence using scientific knowledge
Tinjauan Yuridis Terhadap Akibat Perjanjian Bangun Bagi Berlapis (Perjanjian Bangun Bagi Yang Disubstitusikan)
Authors: Hartono Rudy
Published: February 2022

Perjanjian timbal balik (konsensuil) dapat berupa perjanjian bangun bagi dimana hak dari pihak kedua selaku pemilik modal juga merupakan bentuk kewajiban dari pihak pertama selaku pemilik tanah begitu juga sebaliknya. Subtitusi atas perjanjian bangun bagi ini sering dilakukan oleh pihak kedua ke pihak lainnya. Penelitian ini mengambarkan dan melakukan analisa atas permasalahan-permasalahan yang dilakukan dengan cara pendekatan yuridis empiris yang biasa dikenal dengan metode deskripsi. Pengalihan perjanjian bangun bagi harus dibuat atas persetujuan tiga pihak yaitu kreditor, debitor lama dan debitor baru, oleh karena pengalihan perjanjian bangun bagi mengakibatkan pengantian debitor lama dengan debitor baru, sehingga kreditor tidak dapat lagi meminta pembayaran atau pemenuhan prestasi kepada debitor lama. Resiko hukum yang timbul dalam perjanjian bangun bagi yang disebabkan oleh keadaan memaksa yang tetap, debitor tidak dapat diminta pertanggung jawaban atau dituntut ganti rugi. Tetapi, dalam hal keadaan memaksa yang bersifat sementara debitor tetap wajib memenuhi prestasinya apabila keadaan memaksa sementara telah berubah menjadi normal. Kedudukan hukum pihak ketiga dalam perjanjian bangun bagi berlapis adalah sebagai debitor baru yang menggantikan kedudukan hukum debitor lama serta merupakan pihak yang bertanggung jawab untuk melaksanakan isi perjanjian dengan sukarela dan dengan itikad baik.

This study aimed at assessing the effects of educational short message service (SMS) messages about emergency scene management (ESM) on perceived stress and satisfaction among the family caregivers of patients with mental disorders who requested EMS. Methods: This randomized controlled trial was conducted in 2019–2020 using a two-group posttest-only design. Participants were sixty family caregivers of patients with mental disorders in Mashhad, Iran, who called the EMS center and requested EMS. They were continuously recruited and randomly allocated to an intervention or a control group. Participants in the control group received routine educations, while participants in the intervention group received routine educations and SMS-based educations about ESM. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, a researcher-made caregiver satisfaction questionnaire, and the Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale. Data analysis was performed via the SPSS software (v. 25.0). Results: Most participants were female (53.3%) and their mean age was 44.30±13.03 years. The mean score of perceived stress in the intervention group was significantly less than the control group (P=0.001), while the mean score of caregiver satisfaction in the intervention group was significantly more than the control group (P=0.001). Conclusion: SMS-based education about ESM is effective in significantly reducing perceived stress and enhancing satisfaction among the family caregivers of patients with mental disorders.

Authors: YASSİN Abdallah , GÜNİSTER Ebru
Published: February 2022

The processing parameters to disperse active filler within a polymer matrix to enhance the polymers’ properties should be selected carefully to achieve the best dispersion. In this research, Box-Behnken Design (BBD), an experimental design for response surface methodology (RSM), with three levels was used as a design of experiment (DOE) to analyze the effect of processing parameters on the thermal and rheological properties of high-density polyethylene-organoclay (HDPE-OC) composites prepared by adding organoclay (OC) to high density polyethylene (HDPE) using melt blending method. HDPE-OC composites were characterized morphologically by SEM and XRD, and thermally by DSC and TGA, and tested rheologically. Investigated factors were filler amount, mixing temperature and screw speed. The evaluated responses were melting temperature, degradation temperature, storage modulus, and complex viscosity of HDPE-OC composites. The effect of each factor on the responses was determined through an analysis of variance (ANOVA). The obtained data was used to predict the responses by fitting into a second order equation with MINITAB software. Constructed models were verified using validation experiments therefore optimum melt blending processing parameters obtained as 1.5 wt.% of OC, mixing temperature of 183 °C, and screw speed of 77 rpm for HDPE-OC composites.

Authors: Zhao Hejun , Stoyanets Nataliya , Li Guohou
Published: February 2022

In order to solve the problem of autonomous movement of intelligent picking robot, a method for big data analysis is proposed. The data collected by laser ranging sensor, CCD camera and electronic compass are analyzed to determine the current robot position and heading. The walking route for the robot is preset of the orchard. The sign for the digital tube is installed, so the coordinates for the sign are known. Electronic compass is used to determine the heading angle of robot. The CCD camera captures the sign image, and adopts the methods of image graying, image segmentation, image corrosion and image thinning to extract the digital tube image data on the sign. Fuzzy control method is used to identify digital tube numbers on the ground sign, and CCD camera scans whether there are obstacles in front of the road at the same time. The laser ranging sensor completes two tasks: ① detecting the sign distance and direction angle of the distance, and calculating the current position and heading angle of the robot through the coordinates of the sign; (2) detect the distance from obstacles, and start the obstacle avoidance system when it is less than 1m. The path planning system of picking robot based on big data analysis relies on a variety of sensors, and has a strong ability to perceive orchard environment, and it has high ability of path planning.

The pose, illumination, and expression variations are challenging tasks in Facial Recognition (FR) and are a popular research area nowadays. We introduce novel nibbles of pixel technique and hybrid features from nibbles in this paper. The color images are converted into grayscale and then converts decimal values from each pixel into eight-bit binary values. The novel concepts of segmenting eight-bit binary into two groups of four-bit binary as Leftmost Nibble (LN) and Rightmost Nibble (RN) is presented. The nibble concept increases the computational speed and decreases the complexity of the system in the case of a real-time system as the 256 shades of grayscale images are decreased to 16 shades for LN and 16 shades for RN i.e., totally only 32 shades instead of 256 shades. The LN and RN binary is converted back to decimal values. The LL subband which is obtained from the applied Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) technique on the LN matrix is considered as the most important information while the Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) is applied on the RN matrix to detect the edge information. The linear convolution of DWT and HOG results in the final hybrid features. In the matching part, the Euclidean Distance (ED) matching and the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) are selected to classify the features and calculate the proposed algorithm's performance parameters. The experimentation is implemented on six standard face databases, which demonstrates an outstanding performance by getting higher accuracy with less computation time compared with the existing techniques.

To assist prospective consumers make educated purchasing choices, we are analyzing and mining data from product reviews on online shopping websites. Two methods exist for extracting aspects. Rule-based and Highest Adjective Count (HAC) algorithms. The aspect ranking will use MAX opinion score method and enhanced SentiWordNet opinion score. SentiWordNet uses a hash map structure to turn keys into tiny values that may be used to index data. Hashing can search, insert, and remove in O(L) time. The disadvantage is that if two keys give the same hashCode value, the hashMap's speed suffers. When HashMap buckets are full, they need to be resized. We replaced it with TRIE, which can insert and locate strings in O(L) time, where L is the word length. TRIE is quicker than Hashing because of its implementation. Here hash function and collision handling is not required (like we do in open addressing and separate chaining). TRIE also allows us to print all words in alphabetical order, which is not feasible using hashing. TRIE can effectively search for prefixes. On the other hand, we offer a method that ranks items based on their similarity in terms of features and price. The Suggested method is applied to three conventional databases such as Amazon, Yelp, and IMDB and the solution provides a more effective and dependable online buying experience.

The crop damage is caused by various types of pests that feed on the leaf, stem, roots or entire part of the plants and also by fungal, bacterial and viral infections. In most cases, the diseases are transmitted from one plant to another by vectors. The pests act as vectors in spreading most of the viral infections. It is necessary to identify the disease incidence or pest infestation in the early stages itself and contains its spread before it causes any damage to plants. Several machine and deep learning approaches are involved in rice disease and pest identification. In the preceding works Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and CNN algorithms respectively were used in identification and classification of the disease and pest that affects paddy. Here, a Hybrid CNN-LSTM method is applied for rice disease and pest identification using the various symptoms exhibited in paddy leaves. The accuracy of 97.8% in pest and disease identification proves the superiority of this method over the existing methods.

Published: February 2022

The pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common tumor of the parotid gland. The diagnosis is easy, based on clinical and radiological signs, especially MRI. We report the case of a patient who was 68-year-old with no specific history, had a painless swelling on the right side of her face, gradually increased in size over a period in excess of 20 years. On clinical examination, the parotid mass was firm in consistency, and mobile without fixity to the adjacent structures, it measured 10 cm to 15 cm. The CT Scan revealed a heterogeneous mass of the superficial lobe of the right parotid gland. The treatment was surgical, a right superficial parotidectomy was released under anesthesia general. Histological examination of the operating room confirmed the diagnosis of a pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid without signs of malignancy. The outcomes are favorable; patient woke up without postoperative complications especially no signs of facial palsy. The surgery of the parotid exposes to possible facial paralysis which is widely described in the literature. The PA presents a risk of degeneration after a long period of development. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment is essential to avoid malignant changes of the mass.

Ethnicity, Ethnic Assertion and India’s Northeast
Authors: Gogoi Dr. Tarun
Published: February 2022

At present all the regions and sub-regions of the world have been experiencing several forms of ethnic assertion and tension. The ethnic groups are mobilized on the basis of ethnicity for asserting their ethnic rights. However, the ethnic assertion should not be dismissed as an outburst of emotive and irrational sentiments. The ethnic assertion is not something which is irrational and impulsive but it is a cover through which the elites compete and struggle for power. This paper is an attempt to deal with the moot question – how ethnicity is a cause of inter-ethnic conflict and how it is being used by the elite of different ethnic groups to mobilize the respective community in the context of Northeast India in general and Assam in particular.

Background: Liver abscess is common cause of illness in developing nations. Even with the advance investigation like ultrasonography, the diagnosis is still delayed due to the nonconclusive manifestations of disease and for that reason the tentative diagnosis is important. Methods: 60 patients were selected from L.G. HOSPITAL, Ahmedabad. Study was conducted during the period from June 2020 to October 2021. Results: Percutaneous catheter drainage is having less compliance compared to needle aspiration. Repeated procedures needed to improve the success of percutaneous needle aspiration 56.66% of the subjects presented with complications in USG guided needle aspiration group whereas only 26.66% of people presented with complications in USG guided pigtail catheter drainage group. The most common complication in needle aspiration group was re-accumulation leading to repeated aspiration 40%. The of the most common complication in catheter drainage group is blockage of drain due to thick pus 10%. Conclusions: USG guided catheter drainage and USG guided needle aspiration are equally efficient in the management of significant sized liver abscesses.

Background: There are multiple factors responsible for preterm delivery. It is difficult to completely separate factors associated with prematurity from those are associated with 'IUGR [4]. Objective: To determine morbidity and mortality pattern of preterm very low birth weight babies in neonatal period. Methods: A total number of 200 preterm very low birth weight babies consecutively admitted in this hospital were enrolled into this study. The information about the babies gathered from the history and physical examination and recorded within 24 hours of admission. Each infant was reassessed daily to record the progress and to document any new complication. In his study 50% was male and 50% was female babies. Among them 8.5% was extremely Low birth weight, 1.5% was incredibly low birth weight babies. About 64.5% of preterm VLBW babies were associated with multiple pregnancy- among them 57.1% twin pregnancy and 7.5% triplet pregnancy. Each baby had one or more problems -infection 33% (septicemia congenital pneumonia and umblical sepsis), perinatal asphyxia 30%, poor feeding 10%, neonatal jaundice 28.5, neonatal seizure 14 %, apnea 16.5%, RDS 5 %, Hypoglycemia 7%, hypocalcaemia 2.5 %, were the major problems. Result: Among the studied neonates mortality rate was 32.5 %. Perinatal asphyxia 30%, septicemia. 20.50 % were the major cause of death in preterm infants. Immediate outcome of preterm VLBW infants was closely related to maternal illness during pregnancy. We found mortality rate was related to gestational age, highest (100 %) among the babies of gestational age less than 28 weeks and lowest in babies of gestational age 35 weeks or more. Lower gestational age was associated with higher mortality rate. Higher mortality rates were observed among babies delivered vaginally (24.7%) compared to caesarian section (16.7 %). In addition to prematurity-birth weight was the important factor influencing the mortality observed in the present study. Conclusion: This study ...

The world is facing several challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which is causing severe social and economic disruption. The disruption has resulted in recession, unemployment, and social isolation and has caused an extreme burden on health care services. Artificial intelligence (AI) has a promising role in the healthcare sector by bringing many advantages to practicing clinicians, patients, and society. This article aims to determine the role of artificial intelligence in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. A quantitative methodology is used, and a literature review is done by using electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus. The keywords used for this data research are "artificial intelligence" and "COVID 19"; "COVID 19" and "artificial intelligence". The results have shown that artificial intelligence has been extensively used in seven major domains during the current ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. These include screening and detection of COVID-19 transmission dynamics, diagnostics, disease monitoring and forecasting, disease outbreak containment, disease recovery and mortality, treatment and vaccination, and protection of healthcare workers. Artificial intelligence is a transformational force in the medical field. It assists in early detection of disease, real-time surveillance, diagnosis, treatment, disease containment, development of treatment and vaccinations, and reducing morbidity and mortality. Artificial intelligence will help us in the future to meet many challenges in a timely fashion through the prediction of pandemics, making stakeholders worldwide well prepared to deal with epidemics and pandemics in a systematic and organized manner, avoiding economic turmoil and unnecessary morbidity and mortality.

Knee joint is one of the most important joint needed for locomotion but unfortunately it is commonly affected by degenerative diseases, which ultimately lead to joint replacement surgery. In such cases, measurements of lower end of femur has great importance in designing of implants. Prosthesis based on accurate morphometric data of components of knee; femur and tibia, plays a crucial role, which will ensure early mobility as well as fewer complications after arthroplasty. The present study was done to obtain certain morphometric data of femoral condyles by direct method and to determine differences on right and left side. It was carried out on 73 dried femurs of unknown sex in the department of Anatomy, regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal. Measurements were taken by using the digital Vernier Caliper. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software. The results obtained were, mean bicondylar width R:75.34±5.86,L:74.94±6.67; AP diameter of medial condyle, R:57.29±4.94,L:56.39±5.40;Lateral condyle, R:59.44±4.99, L:58.04±4.10; Transverse diameter of medial condyle, R:21.62±2.84, L:22.24±2.89; Lateral condyle, R:23.29±3.05, L:23.76±2.24; Intercondylar width, R:22.41±2.97,L:22.26±3.77. This morphometric data of the lower end of the femur can aid in the design of implants suitable for the North Indian population.

The experiment was conducted during 2019/2020 at Wondogenet agricultural research center, Sidama region Ethiopia. It was initiated to find a critical weed competition period for Stevia rebaudiana production as weed management plays a great role in agriculture. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) and consisted of three replication and fourteen treatments. Stevia rebaudiana growth and yield, as well as weed data, were assessed during the experiment and subjected to ANOVA using SAS computer software version 9.3, and differences between means were assessed at 5% probability level. Stevia plant height, branch number, and leaf yield were affected significantly due to treatments effects. Weed-free season treatment showed significantly higher stevia fresh yield (6.1 ton/ha) and dry yield (1.20 ton/ha) which was similar to the significantly higher results of the weedy for fifteen days after transplanting. Variation in the weedy period from fifteen days after transplanting (15DAT) to thirty days after transplanting (30DAT) resulted in 33.27% fresh stevia leaf yield reduction and 44.40% dry stevia leaf yield reduction. Weedy season treatment was used as a check and showed significantly lower stevia leaf yield which was also similar to the results of the weedy period for ninety days after transplanting (90DAT). On the other hand, the weedy period for fifteen days after transplanting (15DAT), the weed-free period for ninety days after transplanting (90DAT), and weed-free season treatments showed similar significantly lower weed density. An increase in the weedy period showed higher weed density and weed biomass results. Therefore, as weeds greatly affect stevia growth and yield, early weeding at 15DAT is important and recommended based on the present finding, however, for comprehensive results the experiment should be repeated over site and year.

The purpose of this study was to see how a short-term application of calcium hydroxide affected the dentine strength of adult human permanent teeth. Materials and methods: We selected 15 disease-free permanent mandibular premolars extracted from humans. The root canals were prepared using rotary equipment and divided into three groups at random. In one group, the root canals were filled with a calcium hydroxide paste (RC Cal) and in another group the root canals were filled with a calcium hydroxide paste (NEO Cal). Canals of teeth in the control group were left empty. All teeth were stored in normal saline for 14 days and then coronal third root dentin cylinders were created by removing the crown and apical portions of the teeth. The compressive forces required to shatter the dentin cylinders were measured using an Instron machine (UNIVERSAL TESTING MASCHINE), and the data was analysed using the Anova test. Results: The calcium hydroxide-filled teeth had a considerably lower mean compressive force than the control teeth (P < 0.005). Conclusion: Teeth that had been exposed to calcium hydroxide for 14 days needed less compressive force to shatter root dentin cylinders. Further research is needed to see if impact testing will provide similar results.
