Oyster Mushroom Business at Pandemic Covid-19 Era (Study on Improving the Working Productivity of the Communities in Kajang Village, Madiun District)
Authors: Pambayun Cholifah Karunia
Published: April 2022

This study aims to prove that there is a profit increase in mushroom cultivation and an increase in the work productivity of the community when the Coronavirus (Covid-19) spreads in Indonesia. As is well known, the Covid-19 that has spread in Indonesia has made many workers lose their jobs. The reason is none other than the small amount of income a company gets so that the company or factory cannot provide wages to its workers. The fate of the company or factory was forced to lay off its workers. Apart from the company's difficulty in providing salaries for its workers, the government also gave regulations not to gather more than ten people. This study uses a qualitative method that focuses on increasing the benefits of mushroom cultivation and community work productivity during the Covid-19 pandemic. The results of this study indicate that the enthusiasm of the local community who works in the oyster mushroom cultivation sector increases the productivity of community performance, and the benefits generated from the work productivity of the community also increase. Initially, there were only two workers before the pandemic. Now there are ten workers. Then the production of oyster mushrooms, which usually only produces 55% of the total number of mushrooms, can now produce 70%.

Abstrak:
Tujuan adanya penelitian ini untuk membuktikan benar adanya peningkatan keuntungan di budidaya jamur serta meningkatnya produktivitas kerja masyarakat saat tersebarnya virus Corona (Covid-19) di Indonesia. Seperti yang diketahui bersama bahwa Covid-19 yang telah menyebar di Indonesia ini membuat banyak pekerja kehilangan pekerjaannya. Penyebabnya tak lain karena sedikitnya jumlah pemasukan yang didapat oleh suatu perusahaan sehingga perusahaan atau pabrik tidak bisa memberikan upah kepada para pekerjanya. Fatalnya perusahaan atau pabrik terpaksa memberhentikan para pekerjanya, selain karena perusahaan kesulitan untuk memberikan gaji pekerjanya, pemerintah juga memberikan aturan untuk tidak berkumpul lebih dari 10 orang. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif yang berfokus pada peningkatan keuntungan budidaya jamur dan produktivitas kerja masyarakat saat pandemi Covid-19. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa antusias dari masyarakat setempat yang bekerja pada sektor budidaya jamur tiram membuat produktivitas kinerja masyarakat meningkat dan keuntungan yang dihasilkan dari produktivitas kerja masyarakat juga ikut meningkat. Yang awalnya hanya 2 orang pekerja saat sebelum pandemi, sekarang menjadi 10 orang pekerja. Lalu produksi jamur tirampun yang biasanya hanya menghasilkan 55% dari jumlah jamur kini dapat menghasilkan 70%.
Kata Kunci: Bisnis Jamur Tiram; Pandemi Covid-19; Produktivitas Kerja Masyarakat.

The implementation of sharia accounting following accounting standards is highly used as a form of transparency and accountability of an Islamic financial institution. This research aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic accounting in Islamic microfinance institutions, including recognition, measurement, presentation, disclosure of Murabahah transactions and their compliance with PSAK No. 102 in Baitul Mal Wat Tamwil (BMT), which is a member of the Nahdlatul Ulama Cooperative Association (Askowanu), Jepara Regency. The method used in this research is qualitative with a field study approach. Information and data sources were obtained through interviews with managers of BMT Aman Utama, BMT Aman Abadi, and BMT Bazara, as well as field observations of the three research objects and documents study. The data validity used source triangulation. The research results show that the implementation of accounting for murabahah financing on research objects is generally not following the provisions of PSAK 102. However, partially, several aspects are appropriate in practising the standard of PSAK No. 102 concerning Murabahah.

Authors: Vilarinho Sílvia , Dantas-Neta Neusa Barros , Duarte Danilo Antônio , Imparato José Carlos Pettorossi
Published: April 2022

ABSTRACT Objective: to determine the prevalence of ankyloglossia in neonates and verify factors that interfere with exclusive breastfeeding and cause difficulties in breastfeeding. Methods: an observational longitudinal study conducted at a public maternity hospital in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil. The sample comprised 397 mother-child pairs. Ankyloglossia was diagnosed with the part I of the Baby Lingual Frenulum Assessment Protocol with Scores. Six months after the children were born, the mothers were interviewed and answered questions on the indication and performance of frenotomy and time of breastfeeding. Descriptive analysis of the data, chi-square test and bivariate and multivariate Poisson regression were conducted (p < 0.05). Results: the prevalence of ankyloglossia was 4.3% (n = 17). The attendance rate for the second moment of the research was 70.8% (n = 281). Of the examined children, 14 were indicated for lingual frenotomy, but only one was submitted to the procedure. The time of exclusive breastfeeding of children with ankyloglossia was equal to that of children with a normal lingual frenulum (p-value = 0.876). Ankyloglossia was not associated with breastfeeding difficulties (PR = 1.0 95%CI 0.8-1.1, p-value = 0.441), neither was it a factor for not breastfeeding exclusively for 6 months (PR = 1.1 95%CI 0.9-1.2, p-value = 0.390). Conclusions: the prevalence of ankyloglossia in the studied population was 4.3%. Baby bottle use in the first month of life and breastfeeding difficulties were hindering factors for exclusive breastfeeding.
O&S Voices, Visions, and Values in 100 Published Issues
Authors: Davel Eduardo Paes Barreto
Published: April 2022

Abstract Readers, reviewers, authors, editors, directors, managers, coordinators, and board members of the O&S are diverse voices that expressed themselves about the importance of the journal. From this variety of voices, we identified visions and values that highlight five points of identity of the journal: (a) a consolidated journal that dares, innovates, and renews itself, (b) a relevant journal that seeks excellence, rigor, and social commitment, (c) an open journal that includes the diverse, the plural, and the silenced, (d) a critical journal that resists, debates, and challenges, and (e) a welcoming journal that promotes engagement, the community, and affection. These are points of identity that, rather than crystallizing or affirming, aim, above all, to inspire a reflection on the past, present, and future of the journal.
“Symbolic Territories of Identity”, Geeks: Fantasy and Fiction Consumption in the Construction of Collective Identities in an Urban Tribe
Authors: Santos Paulo Junio dos , Fagundes André Francisco Alcântara , Oliveira Cíntia Rodrigues de
Published: April 2022

Abstract The aim of the present study is to investigate how the consumption of geek products acts in the identity of individuals who see themselves as members of this urban tribe. Geeks are taken as committed members fascinated by topics related to fantasy and science fiction universes; if we take into account a micro-scale, they form an identity territory. Based on its theoretical approach, the goal of the current research lies on promoting a dialogue between studies that have adopted the consumer culture theory (CCT) and organizational identity research, by taking into consideration that urban tribes are a kind of organization. The research corpus comprised interviews with seventeen people who identify themselves as geeks; these interviews were analyzed based on thematic categorization. Based on then results, geek-products’ consumption starts at childhood and goes all the way to adulthood; this process is influenced by characters in the fantasy and fiction universes. The consumed products hold symbolic elements of fantasy and fiction, so that they end up representing the extension of this tribe’s members ‘self’; moreover, they are a way of building collective identities within an urban tribe, in this case, geeks. We have shown that organizational identity studies can lead to greater dialogue with CCT in order to better understand complexities added to identity and multiple affiliations, and links in the identity construction of people forming an organization.
The Variation of Bureaucratic Capacities in the Brazilian Federal Public Administration: an Analysis with Survey Data
Authors: Gomide Alexandre de Ávila , Machado Raphael Amorim , Lins Rafael da Silva
Published: April 2022

Abstract This paper aims to demonstrate the variation in bureaucratic capacities within the Brazilian Federal Public Administration concerning organizations belonging to different policy sectors and verify theoretical propositions in the literature about the relationship between the characteristics of public bureaucracy and state action. For such purposes, data from a questionnaire applied to Brazilian federal civil servants were analyzed using a set of multivariate analysis techniques. The findings indicate that organizations with a greater perception of bureaucratic "weberianess" are correlated with innovative organizations and organizational cultures that restrict corruption. Likewise, organizations with greater bureaucratic autonomy are associated with more effective organizations. However, the observed variation between perceived capabilities and performance did not characterize a clearly identifiable pattern of organization type with public policy sectors. In this sense, the article contributes to the literature by adding nuances to the "islands of excellence" approach by verifying that the asymmetry of capabilities within the Brazilian executive branch is more complex than indicated by previous research.

Abstract This study is to solve the problem of blocked help-seeking behavior and “hitchhiking” in patient user groups, to explore the mechanism of knowledge seeking and sharing behaviors influenced by individual cognition and motivation. The thesis integrates the ERG theory cognitive behavior factors then construct the theoretical model of cognition-motivation-behavior. The structural equation model of 390 valid data is analyzed. The results showed that: (1) Perceived ease of use has no effect on motivation and knowledge seeking, but only on knowledge sharing; (2) survival motivation, relationship motivation and growth motivation, all promote knowledge seeking, while only growth motivation promotes knowledge sharing; (3) perceived usefulness, perceived interpersonal trust and disease cognition have different effects on all these three motivations; (4) perceived usefulness, perceived interpersonal trust and disease cognition have direct effects on knowledge seeking, while perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use have direct effects on knowledge sharing; (5) the key factor to promote knowledge seeking is perceived usefulness, while the key factor to promote knowledge sharing is perceived ease of use; (6) survival motivation and growth motivation play an intermediary role between perceived usefulness, perceived interpersonal trust, disease cognition and knowledge seeking respectively, while only growth motivation plays an intermediary role between these three cognitive factors and knowledge sharing.

Casting the net: early Atlantic fisheries and colonial expansion, 15-16th centuries
Authors: Bouchard Jack
Published: April 2022

Abstract: This article explores the role played by commercial, oceanic fisheries in European expansion into the Atlantic basin across the 15th-16th centuries. The article uses the examples of Iceland, Rio do Ouro and Terra Nova as representative of the new fishing operations, and explains how they functioned as resource extraction systems. In looking at this history, it argues that these fisheries served as crucial food production centers, forms of colonial occupation, fuel sources for expansion, and new resource frontiers. This article ultimately suggests that the new Atlantic fisheries were crucial to the construction of a new European world-ecology in the early period of Atlantic expansion, and formed a vital part of the new colonial systems.
Flexural performance of pretensioned spun concrete piles reinforced with steel strands
Authors: Zhang Xuwei , Gong Shunfeng , Xu Quanbiao , Gan Gang , Yu Xiaodong , Lu Yong
Published: April 2022

The application of pretensioned spun high-strength concrete (PHC) piles in high-intensity seismic areas has been limited by insufficient horizontal load resistance and poor deformation capacity. A new type of pretensioned spun concrete pile with high-strength and high-elongation steel strands instead of steel bars has been developed. This paper presents a flexural performance evaluation of the new centrifugal spun concrete pile with steel strands (hereafter referred to as a PSC pile). An experimental study is presented first, including bending tests on six full-scale pile test specimens with three different pile diameters. The flexural performances of PHC and PSC piles are comparatively assessed. The results show that the new PSC piles have similar crack resistance, but higher ultimate bearing capacity and better deformation capacity under a flexural condition. Compared with PHC piles, which exhibit a brittle bending failure, PSC piles demonstrate a ductile bending failure. Following the experimental study, a theoretical model is developed to evaluate the flexural strength of the piles, and a simplified calculation equation for ultimate bending moment is proposed. Finally, a finite-element model is established to simulate the flexural performance of the piles; the modelling results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental results.

Objective: To analyze the criteria for diagnosis and treatment decision-making in relation to dental caries in different participants (teachers of dentistry, dental students at dental schools, and dentists practicing at public oral health services) in the city of Medellin (Colombia). Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was applied in the period September 2015-december 2016 by means of an international validated questionnaire in 340 participants (dental teachers: 69, dental students: 193, dentists: 78). The survey addressed several topics related to detection and restorative threshold, preferences of preparation type, restorative materials used and opinions about diagnosis and treatment for dental caries. A descriptive analysis was carried out and Chi square tests were applied to observe statistically significant differences between the study variables. Results: 340 participants were surveyed among teachers who teach cariology, health care dentists, and undergraduate final-year students. Most participants were women (70%). The age mean was higher for DDSs (46 ± 9 years). On average, practicing dentists and dental teachers had a work experience of 21 ± 9 years. In case of treatment decisions, the majority of the surveyed would use immediate operative restorative treatment for advanced carious lesions (inner one-third of the dentin for approximal and grade 5 for occlusal). In addition, respondents reported different cavities diagnosis for clinical occlusal cases and some significant statistically differences were found for restorative treatment decisions and type of materials according to the type of participant. Conclusion: Criteria for diagnosis and treatment of dental caries differed among the student, dentist and dental teachers with variety in diagnosis and treatment concepts. However, a conservative tendency for restorative treatment decisions was observed. Strategies for incorporating non-restorative and minimal measures in professional practice should be considered in curricula of universities.
In-between spaces in Klara du Plessis’s Ekke: Identity, language and art
Authors: Maessen Francine , Burger Bibi , Smit Mathilda
Published: April 2022

In this review article, we focus on the depiction of the transnational and translingual as a state of being in-between in Klara du Plessis’s debut poetry collection, Ekke (2018). This in-between state has implications for how identity, place and visual art feature in the collection. Ekke contains fragments of German and French, but consists mainly of English interspersed with Afrikaans. The creation of meaning through this linguistic slippage reflects the idea of identity as always in-process that comes to the fore throughout the collection. Ekke also represents an intervention in South African urban literature, as Bloemfontein, a city not much featured in literature, is represented in several poems. In these poems, the poet/speaker struggles to situate Bloemfontein and its surrounding areas’ histories and symbolism in the transnational networks that she is a part of. The conception of identity and language being constantly in-progress is also conveyed in the collection’s poems about visual art. In these poems, meaning is created through the interaction of language with visual art, a process the poet calls ‘intervisuality’. Keywords: transnationalism, transnational identity, translingualism, multilingual poetry, Klara du Plessis, Bloemfontein in literature, ekphrasis.

Проектирование музейных приложений для сенсорных киосков
Authors:   ООО «Мастерская электронных ремесел», Бояринцев А.В.
Published: April 2022

На основе личного богатого опыта автор обобщает различные виды интерактивных устройств, использующих технологию тактильных сенсоров, называя их «сенсорными киосками», и выделяет параметры, на которые следует обратить внимание, если предполагается их эксплуатация в музейном пространстве. Разработка приложений для сенсорных киосков требует распределения ролей и четкого следования производственным алгоритмам. Автор даёт исчерпывающие рекомендации по необходимой комплектации оборудования для качественного оформления экспозиций и выделяет основные типы специалистов, принимающих участие в разработке и наполнении приложения контентом, отмечая особую важность научных сотрудников, как консультантов, наделенных полномочиями для принятия окончательного решения о внешнем виде и наполнении экспозиции. В статье особое внимание уделено методам вовлечения посетителей, таким как адаптация и форматирование текста для более легкого восприятия, визуализация информации и элементы геймификации, которая в рамках музейного приложения может быть трудновыполнимой научно-творческой задачей, что усложняет процесс создания приложения, но дает возможность наиболее успешно вовлечь посетителей, имеющих более глубокое представление о теме экспозиции. Также автор отмечает необходимость учитывать особенности восприятия посетителей, наличие у них свободного времени для изучения представленной в киоске информации, уровень осведомленности в теме и удобство использования приложения. Предлагаемая методика разработки базируется на наблюдениях, сделанных за 15 лет управления процессами разработки и эксплуатации приложений для сенсорных киосков как в России, так и за рубежом.

Published: April 2022

One of the cultural heritage of the ancestors of the Indonesian nation which is priceless is traditional script. The preservation of Javanese script has been carried out by the government, one of them is by including it in the education curriculum. Javanese script is one of the basic competencies that is less understood and sought after, most students consider Javanese script difficult to learn from both pronunciation and form. Based on observations made at SD Negeri Kleco 1 that the learning method used is the conventional method, not using instructional media. This study aims to determine the feasibility of the media and the influence of the use of interactive learning media on student learning outcomes in Javanese language. This research uses the R&D method with the ADDIE model. This study uses a Matching pretest and posttest control group design. Media validity of 21 items was declared valid with an average value of a coefficient of 0.87 and perfect reliability with a result of 0.943. The material content validity of 13 items was declared valid with an average value of a coefficient of 0.91 and strong reliability with a result of 0.745. Student questionnaire assessment results are categorized as acceptable with an average value of 80%. The value of learning outcomes of the control class is smaller than that of the experimental class, which is 65.73 < 76.97. The conclusion of this research is that SIRAJA learning media is appropriate and influential in improving student learning outcomes in Javanese language, especially Javanese script material.

Authors: Gulyaeva E. E.
Published: April 2022

The present study aims at providing an idea that the protection of genetic and genomic information of indigenous peoples and local communities should be legally established at universal and regional levels. There is a trend in many countries towards the disappearance of rare nations and peoples representing genetic diversity. In the case of the collection, processing, storage, transmission of data in the application of artificial intelligence take further action to ensure cybersecurity, develop ethical guidelines and confidentiality requirements for collection and processing genomic and genetic information on the health of indigenous peoples and local communities bearing in mind the provisions of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (2007) and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (1965). Although human genes are not covered by the Convention on Biodiversity (1992), it should be applied by analogy in the case of the protection of the “genetic” heritage of mankind. The research uses general scientific and special cognitive techniques wherein legal analysis and synthesis, systemic, formal-legal, comparative-legal, historical-legal and dialectical methods are applied. The author calls on the international community to recognize indigenous genetic information from medical research as the common heritage of mankind and to establish special legal responsibility of present generations for the future of mankind at the universal level.

Rejecting the Medical Model of Disability in Belarusian Sports Law: A Long Way to Nowhere?
Authors: Haurylchanka Yu.
Published: April 2022

The article deals with the Belarusian legislation and international legal acts in order to answer the question whether the rejection of the medical model of disability is implemented in Belarusian sports law. The author studies the concept of a disabled person, models of disability and legal regulation of adaptive sports from the point of view of sports law and human rights. It is proved that despite the declaration of non-discrimination of persons with disabilities, the problems associated with the medical model of disability remain very relevant in Belarus. The Belarusian legislation uses the concept of formal equality, but it is supplemented by victimization of disability and objectification of persons with disabilities. The emphasis is shifted to the charity nature of medical care, which brings us back to the medical model. The article argues the importance of adopting a Draft Law on Adaptive Physical Culture and Adaptive Sports to eliminate the existing shortcomings of the legal regulation of sports for persons with disabilities. The author also emphasizes that equalization of opportunities in sports should be defined much wider than providing sports facilities, ensuring equal conditions and opportunities for the development of adaptive movement in relation to the conditions and opportunities for the development of non-disabled sports and non-disabled physical culture. Equalization of opportunities should include a freedom of adaptability as a key category and one of the basic principles of the adaptive movement.

Bioethics for Genomic Medicine: Responsibility to Family or Responsibility for Disclosure
Authors: Shevchenko S. Yu.
Published: April 2022

Disclosure of patients’ genetic information to their families is a central bioethical topic in genomic medicine. The issue of disclosure to family is often associated with a balance between patients’ autonomy and confidentiality and beneficence of their relatives. Communicating patients’ genetic risk profiles back to their family members gives them an opportunity to benefit from additional testing, screening and prevention of potential disorder, so that bioethicists have offered a several models of communication with families. There is no unified definition of the term “family” in bioethics or health law, although the concept of “family” has an important position in the history of private law. There are many ambiguities about such issues as “What does ‘family’ mean?”, “How can communication about genetic risks be placed in a framework of family responsibilities?”. The analysis of several cases in genomic medicine carried out in the article allows us to delve into ethical, administrative, and legal details of these issues in genomic medicine. Notions of “disclosure to family,” “intrafamilial disclosure,” “family dynamics” and “the best interests of the child” are discussed in the article in this regard. Various models of disclosure are grounded in different concepts of family and family relations. If we consider the health professional’s duty to warn of risks to be the duty to help family members with exercising their autonomy, the health professional is responsible to family and is not responsible for consequences of disclosure. The notion of relational autonomy (based on recognition of mutual obligations of family members) begins to be discussed in law and bioethics, however, it still lacks the ethical underpinning. The further research could be aimed at developing the ethical concept of dependency in family relations.
