Authors: Sabri Indar , Pramono Koko Hari , Alfirdaus Mujib
Published: November 2022

The Wiyu village's traditional arts have not developed or made much progress in the last two years since the outbreak began. As one of the reinforcements of the village, this traditional art must be revived so that the tourist village can be re-run with more varied programs. For instance, in the form of incentive tourism locations where the village potential is fully developed to support the success of the existing tourist destinations. One of the bantengan arts groups that requires special attention in order to compete is Turangga Jaya, which is located in Wiyu Village, Pacet Subdistrict, and Mojokerto Regency. In this case, researchers packaged the performances for welcoming and also created a Youtube channel as a means of promotion and documentation to increase marketing success. It is necessary to use promotional materials as part of a marketing strategy to connect with art enthusiasts so that the younger generation knows about it. This art will have viewers among the younger generation if it can use social media as a promotional tool. Thus, to assist the survival of the Turangga Jaya bantengan art, this community service strategy was implemented.
Sandur Manduro From Ritual To Tourism Art
Authors: Windrowati Trinil , Widianto Suwandi
Published: November 2022

The traditional theater performing art, Sandur Manduro which originated from the people’s spontaneity of Manduro Village, Kabuh District, Jombang Regency, is formed by their life cycle. Numerous artistic components, including Fine Arts, Literary Arts, Musical Arts, and Dance arts, may be found in Sandur Manduro. However, the ritualistic purpose of Sandur Manduro's art is currently experiencing a decline in performances. Three (3) issues need to be addressed, including 1) Its performing duration lasts for about roughly eight hours, 2). Sandur Manduro, whose initial acts as a ritual function of Ngudari Kata may turn into a performance/entertainment function, 3) there is no regeneration for the older players of Sandur Manduro. Through the Community Partnership Program (PKM), it is expected to be an independent performance by revitalizing it into an art of tourism and training it to the younger generations of Manduro Village. To revitalize this, the authors adopted Adolph S. Tomars's conceptual framework of Tourism Art that is: 1) Compaction, 2) copy of the original, 3) elimination of sacred and symbolic values for glamorous, 4) diversity, and 5) affordability.

Authors: Ernesto Thiago , Trevizan Marcio Bogaz
Published: November 2022

O presente artigo tem como objetivo apresentar os três Topoi estoicos, tendo como base as reflexões que Pierre Hadot propôs a respeito da obra do imperador e filósofo Marco Aurélio. Como referencial teórico, adotamos as contribuições de Hadot (2009; 2014), Almeida (2011), Aurélio (2002), dentre outros. A metodologia utilizada será a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, aliada à análise de conteúdo. Nossas investigações dão conta de que a escola estoica, ao situar sua área de atuação e reflexão nos Topoi, almeja atingir a integridade do homem e de suas relações com a natureza universal, com os demais seres humanos e, por fim, com a sua própria consciência e as regras adotadas para a formulação dos juízos. Dessa forma, o imperador filósofo expõe suas “Meditações” envolvendo tanto o seu contexto político próprio quanto o propriamente filosófico, evidenciando que sua adesão ao estoicismo se tornou um estilo próprio de viver.

Delayed payment of gratuity, pension, and post-retirement conditions
Authors: Okolie Ugo Chuks , Idibra Morrister
Published: November 2022

The value of retirees' gratuity and pension will continue to grow as individuals reduce their reliance on family members to care for them in old age and accept the truth that they must care for themselves by saving for the future. Benefits for retirees have piqued the interest of policymakers and experts worldwide. Numerous articles have been written to assess Nigeria's previous pension system, the reasons for its failure, the shortcomings of the new pension system, and the influence of both the old and new pension systems on pensioners' wellbeing in Nigeria. Nonetheless, no study exists in Nigeria on the effect of delayed gratuity and pension payments on post-retirement situations. To close this divide, this study explores the effect of delayed gratuity and pension payments on retirees' willingness to keep their current position in Nigeria. This study analyzed secondary data obtained from published and unpublished books, journal articles, and online sources. It used content analysis to determine the relevance of the material collected to the study's scope. The study shows that delayed gratuity and pension payments contribute to pensioners' diminishing status, deteriorating health, and premature mortality shortly after retirement. The study consequently suggests that both public and private employers of labor do regular pre-retirement training for their employees to avoid the shame of seeing their retirees become penniless on the streets or succumb to an early death shortly after retirement.
Implementation of Kashmir as an independent state in South Asia
Authors: Khan Muhammad Haziq , Khan Hassan , Hanif Danish
Published: November 2022

The study investigates the conflict between India and Pakistan over Kashmir as a manifestation of a disagreement between the two countries and emphasizes the factors that are required for the state to act independently, including international law perspective, economic history, natural resource production, geography, and culture. According to the findings of the study, India and Pakistan have rejected the first two options of formal partition and autonomy, but the third option, an independent state, will remain the most viable option for the foreseeable future because neither India nor Pakistan can rule the entire region of Kashmir. As a result, the emergence of an independent state in Asia is considered a legitimate, negotiated solution to the Kashmir dispute. It is asserted here that as long as both India and Pakistan maintain their historically defensive positions, there is little hope for long-term peace in Kashmir. The study further contends that Kashmir's independence is the only way to ensure a long-term settlement to the Kashmir dispute as well as regional peace in Southeast Asia.
The nature of political alienation and electoral violence in Nigeria: A critical analysis of the 2019 general elections
Authors: Igiebor God’stime Osariyekemwen
Published: November 2022

The Nigerian political system has experienced a high level of election-related violence at various epochs of its development. The incidences of violence during elections in Nigeria have resulted in the loss of lives and posed a threat to electoral participation and political stability. The study surveyed the perceptions of Nigerians on the effect of violence on the participation of eligible voters in the Nigerian electoral process. It attempts to ascertain the cause of the low turnout of voters in the 2019 general elections. The study adopted the survey research design and used data from 1,200 respondents selected from six local government areas representing the six geo-political zones. Simple percentages and Chi-Square statistical techniques were employed to test and determine the degree of association intrinsic to the stated hypotheses. The findings from the study show a positive relationship between violence and alienation. Thus, political violence perpetrated by political opponents and parties (among others) during elections results in the alienation of voters from the electoral process. Consequently, it is opined that the federal and state governments should put on modalities to mitigate the incidence of violence during elections. Also, perpetrators of electoral violence should be prosecuted and sanctioned accordingly.

This research aims to analyze the relationship between the characteristics of teenagers and family functions as well as the understanding of narcotics, psychotropics, and addictive substances on the behavior of teenagers consuming drugs in East Java as a response variable with a binary scale. The data source obtained through secondary data from the Performance Survey and Accountability Program 2019 with the observation unit teenagers aged 10-24 years. The sample used is 4,649. The analytical method used is descriptive statistics, the Chi-square method, and Odds Ratio (OR). The percentage of adolescent consuming drugs is 4.1% descriptively. The relationship analysis shows that the variables significantly related to young people's behavior in consuming drugs are gender, place of residence, level of education, age group, religious values, and psychological consequences. From the OR figures concluded that young males are 3.2 times more at risk of consuming drugs than young females. From the aspect of family function, it can be inferred that the percentage of young substance abusers from families who apply religious values is greater than those who do not. The findings of this research show that the risk of young people from families who practice religious functions becoming substance abusers are 1.61 times more compared to families who do not practice it. The understanding of drugs is not always related to teenagers' behavior in consuming drugs, because those who understand the psychological consequences of substance abuse are also 1.64 times more at risk of using drugs compared to teenagers who do not understand.

The Influence of Guerrilla Marketing on Buying Interests in Indonesian Fashion Local Brands
Authors: Nugroho Karen Millennia Puspa , Hermawan Daniel
Published: November 2022

The modern age has had an impact on commercial sectors, particularly the fashion industry. There are already an increasing number of local brands that are in demand from the general public, particularly ladies. But the local fashion brand's marketing strategy is not wholly responsible for its success. The typical marketing strategy is now less effective due to technology innovation. Thus, a non-traditional strategy using digital marketing tools like web hunt can make it simpler for Indonesian fashion local products to be noticed and purchased by many people in various places. Therefore, the goal of this study is to analyse how guerrilla marketing has an impact on Indonesian consumers' shopping habits and local fashion brands. The quantitative approach combined with a descriptive analysis was the research methodology employed in this study. A survey of 103 respondents who fit the requirements for the data collecting process—product owners and potential customers of a regional fashion brand in Indonesia—was utilized to gather the information. The study's findings show that guerrilla marketing has an impact on Indonesian local fashion brands' consumer behaviour at the same time. However, in part, the emotional arousal factor has the greatest impact on consumers' purchasing decisions. Therefore, it may be said that guerrilla marketing has little effect on consumer behaviour.

Authors: Nurmansyah Ihsan , Haris Luqmanul Hakim
Published: November 2022

This paper discusses the use of verses of the Qur'an in the Robo'-Robo' prayer tradition in Selat Remis Village, Teluk Pakedai District, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan. This tradition uses verses of the Qur'an by reading selected surahs in its implementation which is carried out once a year, namely on the last Wednesday of the month of Safar. Therefore, to find out the meaning of the use of the verses of the Qur'an in the Robo'-Robo' prayer tradition is to use the sociological theory of knowledge introduced by Karl Mannheim. The source of the data was obtained from observations and in-depth interviews at the research site. The results of this study are: 1) the objective meaning in the perspective of the Pakedai Bay community, namely preserving tradition as a form of obedience to a cleric named Guru Haji Ismail Mundu by finding manuscripts or hand notes that are used as references in that tradition. 2) expressive meaning in the view of the Pakedai Bay community, namely as a means of repelling reinforcements, avoiding disease, gaining safety, wanting a harmonious household, and after carrying out the tradition feel peace, comfort and tranquility. 3) the documentary meaning of the Robo'-Robo' prayer tradition is the formation of a habit as a forum for togetherness and intimacy for the Pakedai Bay community.

Published: November 2022

Cryopreservation has been used extensively for cattle in Bangladesh, albeit no study was conducted on the cryopreservation techniques of buffalo. This study compares two freezing methods and the effects of diluters on the semen quality of buffalo. In the first freezing protocol, semen was frozen in two-step: from 37 °C to 5 °C for 30 minutes in a BLRI-developed equilibration chamber and from 5 oC to -120 oC in a Styrofoam box using liquid nitrogen vapor from different distances (0.5, 1.5, 1.6, 2 and 3 inches). At the same time semen was frozen in a programmable freezer in three steps. The semen samples were then evaluated for motility and morphological quality by CASA. In another experiment, the efficacy of one locally developed diluter-Tris-fructose-egg yolk-based (TFE) and three commercial diluters (Andromed, Triladyl and Steridyl) were evaluated. The highest number of motile sperms (62.67±1.12; P< 0.01) and progressive motility (38.97±1.10; P < 0.001) was observed at 1.6 inches above liquid nitrogen. There was no significant difference in overall motility, progressive and slow motility between semen cryopreserved in the cheap nitrogen vapor technique (57.49±5.67, 38.70± 4.04 and 3.83± 0.63, respectively) and expensive automated technique (65.94±4.65, 45.54 ± 3.64 and 2.43± 0.36, respectively). The highest recovery rate and conception rate were observed in semen diluted with TFE (82.4% and 80%, respectively). Hence, the cryopreservation technique using nitrogen vapor and TFE diluent is cost-effective and suitable for freezing buffalo semen that would produce superior semen for artificial insemination.
GPRE: Multi-Path Guided Recommender System Based on Graph Neural Networks
Authors: webster Evan , Hill Julie , Shimada Tyson , Smyth Braedon
Published: November 2022

Recommender systems as an effective information filtering system can be used to obtain information through the user's explicit or implicit behavior. On the one hand finding items that may be of interest to the user. On the other hand, the recommendation facilitates the interaction between the user and the item to increase the revenue. Recommender systems have been widely used in various fields, such as e-commerce, travel recommendation, online books and movies, social networks, etc, which can satisfy the intrinsic implicit needs of users through personalized services. In recent years, the development of deep learning has further improved the performance of recommendation systems. Although these methods improve the performance of the recommendation system, when the number of users and products increases, the recommendation system may face sparsity and cold start problems, and thus cannot achieve personalized recommendations. Knowledge graphs, which are structured data, have become the choice of many algorithms due to the high quality and wide scale of the data, and therefore many recommendation algorithms combined with knowledge graphs have emerged as a popular new direction in recommendation systems. These algorithms are able to preserve the rich connections between different entities. Moreover, when constructing the features of an entity, the entities that are far away from the central entity can also be utilized. Entities are no longer only directly connected to each other. To address the shortcomings of existing recommendation algorithms, this paper designs the recommendation algorithm GPRE using graph neural networks. GPRE focuses on expressing the user's features. The graph neural network provides GPRE with a strong generalization capability for modeling, which can provide long-range semantics between users and entities, as well as selective entity selection in the auxiliary graph neural network. Explicit semantic links are established between remote and central nodes to reduce the introduction of noise. In this paper, experiments are conducted on real-world datasets and the results are compared with baselines. The experimental results show that GPRE performs well on the experimental dataset.

Рассматривается актуальная задача планирования рационального развития спортивной инфраструктуры в условиях ограниченных ресурсов. Проведена разработка математической модели для оценки спортивных инфраструктурных проектов и графика их реализации. Для оценки проектов предложено использовать методы многокритериального анализа решений на основе нечeтких областей предпочтений. Поиск оптимальных параметров предложенной модели затруднен в силу наличия бинарных переменных, которые делают задачу NP-трудной. Для поиска решения, близкого к оптимальному, предложена модель машинного обучения с подкреплением. Разработано программное обеспечение, позволяющее проводить как ранжирование проектов, так и определение плана-графика их реализации с учетом имеющихся ресурсов и потребностей. Алгоритмическое и программное решение на основе модели машинного обучения с подкреплением инвариантно по отношению к предметной области и может использоваться и в других задачах комбинаторной оптимизации. На примере задачи выбора регионов для строительства баскетбольных площадок проведены вычислительные эксперименты для предложенного решения.

Araştırmada ilgili mevzuat, alan yazını ve istatistikler doğrultusunda metin incelemesi yapılarak eleştirel bir bakış açısıyla değerlendirmelerde bulunulmuştur.Yeniden yapılanma sürecinde düzenleyici devlet ortaya çıkmıştır. Düzenleyici devlet, neoliberal politikaların olumsuz etkileriyle ortaya çıkan yoksulluk ve bununla bağlantılı toplumsal sorunların, sosyal yardımlar aracılığı ile büyük krizlere yol açmasını önlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda sosyal politika alanında sosyal yardımlar önem kazanmıştır. Muhtaçlık odaklı yapılan sosyal yardımlar, insan yaşamının devamını sağlayacak temel ihtiyaçların karşılanmasını hedeflemektedir. Fakat araştırmada bu politikaların insanları yoksulluktan tamamen kurtarmaktan uzak olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Devletteki dönüşümün sosyal yardım politikası üzerindeki etkileri sosyal yardımlaşma ve dayanışma vakıfları üzerinden incelenmiştir. Diğer sosyal yardım kurumları araştırmanın dışında kalmaktadır.Sosyal yardımlaşma ve dayanışma vakıfları hakkında sosyal politika alanında birçok çalışma vardır. Bununla birlikte politika uygulayıcısı olarak devletteki dönüşümün sosyal yardımlarla ilişkisi noktasında sosyal yardımlaşma ve dayanışma vakıflarını inceleyen yeterli çalışma yoktur. Bunun yanında çalışma sosyal yardımlaşma ve dayanışma vakıflarının örgütsel işleyişinin değerlendirilmesi bakımından da önem taşımaktadır.

Authors: ÜNAL Seyfettin
Published: November 2022

Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı Türkiye’deki bankacılık sektörünün ve hisse senedi piyasasının ekonomik büyüme ile olan ilişkisinin ekonometrik olarak analizidir.
Tasarım/Yöntem: Araştırma modelinde, toplam ticari banka kredileri ve hisse senedi piyasasının toplam kapitalizasyonunun ekonomik büyüme ile olan ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Eşbütünleşme testi ve vektör hata düzeltme modeli (VECM) sonrası uygulanan Granger nedensellik testi ile nedenselliğin yönü belirlenmiştir.
Bulgular: Çalışmanın bulgularında, gerek öngörülere uygun sonuçlar gerekse öngörülerden ayrılan sonuçlara rastlanmıştır. Toplam ticari banka kredilerinden ekonomik büyümeye doğru istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir nedensellik belirlenmiştir. Fakat hisse senedi piyasasının toplam kapitalizasyonundan ekonomik büyümeye doğru anlamlı bir nedensellik ilişkisine rastlanmamıştır.
Sınırlılıklar: Kullanılan veri setinin sadece iki değişken ve Türkiye üzerine olması araştırmanın sınırlılıklarıdır.
Özgünlük/Değer: 2008’de başlayan küresel kriz sonrası Türkiye ekonomisindeki büyümenin şekillenmesinde bankacılık ve hisse senedi piyasanın oynadığı rolün karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmesi çalışmaya özgünlük katmaktadır. Ayrıca, ulaşılan bulguların ekonomi yönetimi ve politika yapıcılara yön gösterecek nitelikte olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Slot Machine Warfare: China’s Campaign to Undermine American Military Plans in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands
Authors: Polisar Evan N.
Published: November 2022

The Department of Defense (DOD) has proposed establishing several live-fire training areas in the Commonwealth of the Mariana Islands (CNMI) to address dozens of training deficiencies impacting Pacific forces. Capitalizing on local resistance to the proposal, the People’s Republic of China has waged a campaign of political and economic warfare in the CNMI through proxy casino companies to inflame opposition among residents and assert greater influence in the region. This article examines the DOD’s joint training proposal, China’s political and military efforts to undermine it, and important considerations should the plan move forward.
Technology Focus: Offshore Drilling and Completion (October 2022)

Big data, in its many forms, has promised much to the oil and gas industry but mostly is perceived to have been slow to deliver. This is not at all surprising. We must walk before we can run, and, as experience has grown with the nuances and successful and unsuccessful avenues of investigation, the industry has continued to move forward. As the saying goes, “Data is like people: Interrogate it hard enough and it will tell you whatever you want to hear.”

From early and almost naïve beginnings, where systems would confidently predict that Friday followed Thursday, we entered a phase where data mining began to provide insight. Often these insights confirmed long-established relationships; for example, in hydraulic fracturing, more than once I have seen heavily marketed research and development that professes to predict the onset of screenout conditions only to see that the system has effectively “seen” a Nolte-Smith relationship. These, however, are mere stumbles of any system picking itself up and beginning to move, and should be expected.

What we have seen are continued areas of application opening up, where approaches deliver real efficiency gains and highlight further opportunities. The papers that I included this month fall into these categories, demonstrating real measurable efficiency gains and advantages, often processing volumes of data that previously could not be managed by conventional means. Performance measurement and drilling automation are two such examples, and the papers referenced this month, both as synopses and listed for further reading, fall into this category.

Not surprisingly, as we apply data science to broader problem sets across the industry, we will see continued development and demonstrated success. Sharing these successes will ensure that this momentum is sustained and that advances continue.
