The state in carrying out the life of the nation and state faces threats that come from within the country and abroad. This study aims to find out the legal rules regarding shooting to death for perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism in the perspective of the principle of the presumption of innocence, where this case has always been a hot issue in Indonesia, especially when we associate shooting to death or being shot on the spot for perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism with the principle of presumption of innocence. This research is normative in nature with reference to existing books, journals, and laws and regulations. There are several legal rules that form the basis for doing so/shooting death against terrorism crimes are: Article 48 of the Criminal Code, In Article 49 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code, In Article 51 of the Criminal Code paragraph (1), National Police Chief Regulation Number 8 of 2009 concerning Implementation of Human Rights Principles and Standards. The principle of presumption of innocence also places him in the Burden of Proof or the burden of proof and it is the duty of the public prosecutor to prove the defendant's guilt, unless the proof of Insanity is imposed on the defendant or the law provides strict provisions for reverse proof. The application of the principle of presumption of innocence must also always uphold human rights that must be respected by everyone.

Published: October 2021

Implementation of Guidance on Corruption Convicts is one of the things that must receive attention in prisons because it is one of the Extra Ordinary Crimes. In addition, most corruption crimes are committed by people who have a high social status, both in terms of their position before staying in prison as well as in terms of education and economic levels. Arrangements regarding the implementation of guidance for corruption convicts in Indonesia are regulated in the provisions of Law Number 12 of 1995 concerning Corrections and are described through Government Regulation Number 31 of 1999 concerning Guidance and Guidance of Correctional Citizens. Regarding the guidance for corruption convicts, it still refers to the provisions of Government Regulation Number 31 of 1999 where there is no difference in terms of the implementation of coaching which is still carried out through three stages, namely the initial stage, the advanced stage and the final stage. To be able to obtain the right to parole, there are special provisions that are applied to Corruption Convicts, namely in addition to having to behave well while in prison, they must also fulfill the obligation to complete the payment of fines or replacement money to be able to submit a parole proposal.
Polsko-amerykańska współpraca miast
Authors: Frenkel Marcin
Published: November 2021

The article analyzes contemporary cooperation of Polish and American cities. Thus, it contributes to the research on the participation of non-state actors in the international relations. Currently, only 10 Polish cities conduct active cooperation with partners from the USA. These relationships focus on cooperation on issues such as culture, art, science and business. In most cases, these contacts were initiated by the Polish side, and they were based primarily on direct interpersonal contacts. Most partnership agreements were signed in the 1990s and resulted from the collapse of the Soviet block and deep political changes in Poland. Currently, the main obstacles to the intensification of these local governments transatlantic relations is a weak American involvement, geographic distance and a lack of state support.

Spherical Scanning 3-D Microwave Imaging of Near-field Scatterers Mutually Coupled With an Antenna Array
Authors: Watanabe Takuma , Yamada Hiroyoshi
Published: November 2021

*This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication. Copyright may be transferred without notice, after which this version may no longer be accessible.

In this article, we propose a 3-D synthetic aperture imaging method with spherical antenna scanning to identify scatterers located close to an antenna array, such as fixtures or support of the antenna. Previous studies have shown that 2-D and 3-D synthetic aperture imaging techniques with planar, circular, and cylindrical scanning can successfully reconstruct spatial images of near-field scatterers. The spherical scanning approach considered in this article is expected to improve the 3-D image resolution because more angular diversity can be achieved in the elevation direction. However, as we show in this study, simple extension of the previous techniques to the spherical case results in undesired blur artifacts in the reconstructed image. To overcome this problem, we introduce a correction factor in the image reconstruction. The proposed imaging algorithm is validated by numerical electromagnetic simulation based on the method of moments.

The increased flood incidences experienced all over the world due to climate change dynamics call for a concerted effort towards forestalling future hazards. This study thus, identified the areas that are susceptibility to floods in parts of the Makera district of the Kaduna South Local Government Area in Nigeria using geospatial techniques. Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to produce thematic layers of the factors contributing to flooding (elevation, slope, drainage density, rainfall, land use/land cover); and a multi-criteria evaluation particularly the “Analytical Hierarchical process” (AHP) was applied to determine the locations at risk. The various thematic layers were integrated into the weighted overlay tool in the ArcGIS 10.3 environment to generate the final susceptibility map. The overlay tool was also used to determine the elements at risk of flood in the study area. The results show that the areas that were highly susceptible to flood constituted about 39% of the study area, while moderate and low vulnerable areas constituted about 26% and 35%, respectively. The result of the multi-criteria analysis revealed that land use/land cover (0.601) was the factor that contributed the most to flooding in the study area based on the criteria weights followed by rainfall (0.470), drainage density (0.326), elevation (0.144), and slope (0.099), respectively. The study recommends that authorities concerned should ensure strict adherence to land use planning act, such that floodplains are avoided during development of any type.

The Code of Local Laws of the Western Provinces of 1837 as the monument of municipal law of Ukraine
Authors: Vovk Oleksandr
Published: November 2021

It is established that the Code of Local Laws of the Western Provinces of 1837 (the Code of 1837), the draft of which has beenprepared by the Second Department of His Imperial Majesty’s Own Chancellery was to be the codified collection of local law for Kyiv,Volyn and Podil Provinces in the 1830s. However, in 1838 the concept of expanding the all-Russian system of legislation to allprovinces strengthened, so the fully prepared Code of 1837 did not come into force, but it was used as a manual for legal scholars andpractitioners.It is established that the sources for the Code of 1837 were the norms of Ukrainian customary law; privileges, regulations, constitutionsof Lithuanian and Polish law; universals and instructions of the hetmans; nominal and senate decrees of the Russian autho -rities; decrees of judicial practice of Ukrainian state, statutory and town courts. In theoretical and legal comparison with other collectionsof legislative acts of that time, the structure of the Code of 1837 is quite clear and at the same time branched out, namely it consistsof: Introduction; Part I “Laws on estates”; Part II “Civil laws”; Part III “Laws on judicial rites, on court proceedings, and on measuresof civil penalties”; Annexes. Each of the books was divided into sections, subsections, chapters, and paragraphs with footnotes. Legalnorms concerning town (municipal) law were mostly concentrated in Section III (Book I Part I) “On townspeople”, Subsection III(Book II Part I Section II) “On acts of the estate of townspeople” and Section III (Book II Part I) “On special acts of the estate of townspeopleand countrypeople”.It is noted that in the first half of 19th century norms of town law regulated not only the activities of town self-government, butalso determined the rights and duties of a particular townee estate, their belonging to the town community, which were concentrated inthe Code of 1837. Having analyzed the content of the main provisions of the town law of the Code of 1837, it should be noted that acertain number of its paragraphs have a blanket way of formulating. In the Code of 1837, the codifiers technically used the referenceto the articles of the Code of Laws of the Russian Empire of 1832. The peculiarity of the regulations of the Code of 1837 was the establishmentof concepts of citizens of western provinces and of free people as townspeople in its text. An important feature of the provisionsof the Code of 1837 also concerned such a category of townspeople as honorary citizens of the western provinces. The norms ofmunicipal law of the Code of 1837 did not contradict the main source of municipal self-government for Ukrainian towns in the firsthalf of the 19th century, that is the Charter on the Rights and Benefits of the cities of the Russian Empire of 21 April 1785. The Codeof 1837 preserved its practical significance even at the beginning of the 20th century where it came to legal relations having arisenbefore the 1840s, and, accordingly, were subject to the local laws of that time.

Published: October 2021

The spread of radical or terrorist character values ​​has begun to occur in many Islamic educational institutions. This fact must be a concern for Islamic educational institutions, including the MTs Islamic Boarding School (IBS) which is under the auspices of Islamic boarding schools. The IBS-based MTs Al-Qodiri 1 Jember has made efforts to overcome this, one of which is by integrating Sufi values ​​in the subject curriculum. To describe the integration process in the institution, the researchers used a qualitative research approach and the type of case study research. The results of his research indicate that the integration of Sufistic values ​​in subjects at MTs IBS has been carried out well. Sufistic values ​​that have been integrated consist of the values ​​of sincerity, simplicity, ukhuwah Islamiyah, independence and discipline. This integration process is carried out by means of all Sufistic values ​​being internalized in several focus or sub-focus discussions related to other values. The integration of these character values ​​into the subject curriculum is carried out in three aspects, namely into the syllabus, lesson plans and the learning process. This integration model can make it easier for teachers to carry out the process of planting, forming and habituation of Sufi values ​​in the daily lives of students.

Penyebaran nilai-nilai karakter radikalis atau teroris sudah mulai banyak terjadi di lembaga pendidikan Islam.

Semantic Analysis of Using X-Phemistic Expressions in Saudi Health Minister Speeches during Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Alsulami Ghada
Published: October 2021

On March 11, 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) declares Covid-19 disease as global pandemic. Accordingly, the style of linguistic or verbal communication between governments and nations has been highly affected. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate resources where X-phemistic expressions come as characteristics of the speeches of Saudi Health Minister during Covid-19 pandemic. Moreover, it examines how Warren's euphemistic strategies (1992) have appeared in the minister’s speeches. The collected data are the eight speeches delivered by Saudi Minister of Health during Covid-19 pandemic. They are analyzed qualitatively using thematic analysis (TA) approach. The results show that Saudi Health Minister manages to deliver the massages about Covid-19 crisis through applying variety of linguistic devices which sound to be euphemistic, dysphemistic, and orthophemistic representations of the pandemic. The employment of each X-phemisms choice is mainly occurred within certain thematic fields. Euphemism is used in presenting unpleasant massages, naming the health crisis, and comforting the public. Dysphemism is applied in one specific theme of describing the virus. Orthophemisms is found in themes of declaring facts about the pandemic, warning the public, and requesting to follow instructions. It is also found that implication, reversal, particularization, metonymy, and metaphors are the most frequently used euphemistic strategies among Warren model (1992). This analysis contributes to the limited examination of pandemic discourse by understanding how X-phemistic expressions and euphemistic strategies are used by Arabic speakers during international crises like Covid-19.

Published: October 2021

A promising direction for further development of agriculture not only in Ukraine but also in the world is the introduction of innovative technologies, to which we should include the track system of agriculture. The movement of transport and energy vehicles on the aligned compacted trace of the constant technological track causes undesirable and uncharacteristic vibrations for agricultural machinery. The latter are due to the influence of the microprofile of the constant technological track, which has a significant negative impact on the degree of comfort and efficiency of the operator, operational and technological indicators, reliability and smoothness of machines. The method and results of experimental automated estimation of the microprofile of irregularities of traces of the constant technological track are presented in the article. Experimental studies of the microprofile of irregularities of the traces of the constant technological track have shown that the standard deviation of the irregularities of the profile is ± 0.84
According to their internal structure, the inequalities of the profile of traces of the constant technological track are characterized by a function that contains, along with random components, the harmonic ones, which are expressed by attenuating periodic oscillations of the normalized correlation function. The main share of variances of oscillations of the irregularities of the profile of the traces of the technological track is concentrated in the frequency range from 0… 0.3 cm − 1. The generator of formation of irregularities of a longitudinal profile of soil traces of a constant technological track are parameters of ground hooks of tires of wheels of the cars moving on it.This is confirmed by the fact that the length of the correlation of the ordinates of the irregularities of the profile of the traces of a constant technological track in the conditions of tests of the bridge agricultural tool of the new design is about 0.18 m, which corresponds to the pitch of its tires.

Published: November 2021

Four coniferous and four deciduous commercial tree species from Northeastern ofChina were selected to investigate the differences ofmetabolites in wood-forming tissues bygas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that the identified metabolites mainly consisted of neutral sugars, lipids, and organic acids. The mean contents of both arabinofuranose and 1-cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid were higher in coniferous trees thanin deciduous ones. Similarly, the D-fructose and D-glucose content was significantly higherin coniferous trees than deciduous trees, but the total contents of these two sugars was roughly equal among most tree species. The mean content of lactic acid, glycerol and malic acid was lowerin coniferous trees than deciduous trees. The malic acid content decreased in later-stages of wood formation than in early-stagefor all tree species. The content of L-proline and myo-inositol was greater in later-stage of wood formation than early-stage.The contentof octadecanoic acid, D-fructose and D-glucose decreased in later-stage of wood formationfor most tree species. All of thissuggested that the metabolites in wood-forming tissues showed the significance of species-specific and seasonal dynamic differences among the eight tree species.

The availability of REEs is limiting the successful deployment of some environmentally friendly and energy-efficient technologies. In 2019, the U.S. generated more than 15.25 billion pounds of e-waste. Only ~15% of it was handled, leaving ~13 billion pounds of e-waste as potential pollutants. Of the 15% collected, the lack of robust technology limited REE recovery for re-use. Key factors that drive the recycling of permanent magnets based on rare earth elements (REEs) and the results of our research on magnet recycling will be discussed, with emphasis on neodymium and samarium-based rare earth permanent magnets.

Transmission of hazardous materials could be aggravated by inappropriate handling and storage practices. This results in cross-contamination to foodstuff or cooking utensils. The introduced hazards in the food supply chain might lead to client and reputation loss. The implementation of food safety is necessary to secure safety concerns. All employees should take initiative to be aware and have good attitudes regarding proper hygiene and sanitary practices to assure their product integrity and safety for human consumption. Therefore, this chapter delivered the appropriate and standard food safety protocols to all individuals involved in food storage, preparation, and serving. The scope was structured into (1) identification of hazardous ingredients, (2) purchasing and receiving raw materials, (3) transporting and storage, (4) cooking and reheating, (5) food serving and displaying, (6) leftover storage, and (7) cleaning and sanitation.
Evaluating Level of Awareness of Food Terrorism Activities Among Consumers in Klang Valley, Malaysia
Authors: Khairatun Siti Nurhayati
Published: November 2021

Food terrorism issues have gained attention from the food industry globally. Food terrorism is a threat, sabotage, or contamination act to the food supply chain committed intentionally by people with a purpose to harm the public, jeopardize the economy, and disrupt the social and political system. More seriously, injury and death caused by contaminated food are inevitable. In Malaysia, very few studies have delved into food terrorism research. Therefore, this chapter presents a study to evaluate the level of awareness among consumers in the Klang Valley towards food terrorism activities. A quantitative survey was employed to gather data from consumers residing in the Klang Valley. Approximately 384 reusable surveys were analyzed using Pearson correlation and one-way analysis of variance to generate the results. The results indicated that customers in Klang Valley have an average level of awareness of food terrorism activities. This study offers a baseline reference for future research to investigate a wide area of food terrorism in Malaysia.

Food adulteration is a prevalent issue in the food industry. It affects safety and quality of food and causes harm to the health of the consumer. To reduce incidence of adulteration in food, it is necessary to study adulterants being added to food. Food safety concerns arise when adulteration occurs for a variety of reasons. The act includes use of expired ingredients, deceptive adulterated food labels, addition of harmful compounds to food, and more. Tests and techniques for suspected food items that are commonly adulterated with certain food or non-food products are studied and described here. The detection of adulteration in food sectors can be done qualitatively and quantitatively. Various methods like chemical analysis, spectroscopic, and chromatographic techniques used to detect adulteration are reviewed. Various laws and regulations are in effect around the world in order to prevent adulteration and ensure food safety to protect the consumers. Regulatory agencies play an important role in putting a check to food adulteration by monitoring the quality of food and penalizing defaulters.

The purpose of study is the assessment of global Covid-19 on small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) with the case of Technological Incubation Centre (TIC), Ibadan. Three research objectives were raised. A descriptive survey research design was used. The population of the study is 29 (twenty-nine). Total Census survey was adopted as the sampling technique. SPSS software 20 analysis was used to analyze the data. The study concluded that, there has been increase in all the inputs needed for the production processes at the Centre. Therefore, sales of goods at the period of the Covid-19 have been negatively affected, which has similarly impacted on employment generation. It’s recommended that the management of the TIC should assist the businesses to mitigate the adverse effect of the Covid-19; while the Nigerian government should consider the SMEs as an important sub-sector that could restore the economy to the period of better economic growth.

Business incubation (BI) is a strategic tool that helps a country to grow its entrepreneurial base and reduce the high mortality rate of SMEs. Kingdom of Eswatini adopted the business incubation initiatives to promote entrepreneurship and SME development. To date, no data exist on the impact made by business incubation initiatives. Adopting methodological triangulation of both quantitative and qualitative data collected through questionnaires and interviews where the participants consisted of SME owners, BI managers, and BI trainers, this exploratory study aims to investigate business incubation initiatives' impact on entrepreneurs and SMEs. Findings reflect that BIs measure their impact by seeing an increase in revenue, increase in the number of people employed, and SME survival post the incubation period. Though SMEs agreed that the BI effects positively, the study also revealed that some SMEs remained in the incubation for more than 10 years. Policy implications emerging are the need to introduce graduation policy and proper determination of requirements for incubation.

Published: November 2021

In the first stage of the experiment, the effect of Al10Sr modification and Al5TiB grain refiner and interaction of both additions on the microstructure of AlMg5Si2Mn alloy and Mg2Si phase morphology was investigated. Then the influence of Al10Sr and Al5TiB addition on nucleation temperatures of various intermetallic phases formed in AlMg5Si2Mn alloy also have been interpreted by the formation of distinct peaks in the first derivative cooling curve and microstructural observations. It was found that modification has a meaningful influence on the microstructure of the investigated alloy as well as the crystallization process
Influence of Electrochemically Exfoliated Graphite Addition on the Dielectric Properties of Epoxy/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites
Authors: Radoń Adrian , Łukowiec Dariusz
Published: November 2021

The influence of hydrophilic electrochemically exfoliated graphite (EEG) and hydrophobic reduced EEG (rEEG) on the electrical conductivity, dielectric properties, and high-frequency dielectric losses of epoxy-based composites with montmorillonite was described. It was confirmed, that the addition of EEG changes the low-temperature conduction mechanism. The electrical conductivity in composite with EEG and montmorillonite was described by correlated barrier hopping model, whereas for composites with montmorillonite and rEEG two models were used: non-overlapping small polaron tunneling and correlated barrier hopping. The addition of EEG drastically changes the activation energy of charge carriers motions from 2.68 to 0.83 eV, whereas the addition of rEEG only to 2.43 eV. Also composite with EEG was characterized by highest high-frequency dielectric losses.
